Switch over to the new hierarchical libraries
---------------------------------------------
This commit reorganises our libraries to use the new hierarchical
module namespace extension.
The basic story is this:
- fptools/libraries contains the new hierarchical libraries.
Everything in here is "clean", i.e. most deprecated stuff has
been removed.
- fptools/libraries/base is the new base package
(replacing "std") and contains roughly what was previously
in std, lang, and concurrent, minus deprecated stuff.
Things that are *not allowed* in libraries/base include:
Addr, ForeignObj, ByteArray, MutableByteArray,
_casm_, _ccall_, ``'', PrimIO
For ByteArrays and MutableByteArrays we use UArray and
STUArray/IOUArray respectively now.
Modules previously called PrelFoo are now under
fptools/libraries/GHC. eg. PrelBase is now GHC.Base.
- fptools/libraries/haskell98 provides the Haskell 98 std.
libraries (Char, IO, Numeric etc.) as a package. This
package is enabled by default.
- fptools/libraries/network is a rearranged version of
the existing net package (the old package net is still
available; see below).
- Other packages will migrate to fptools/libraries in
due course.
NB. you need to checkout fptools/libraries as well as
fptools/hslibs now. The nightly build scripts will need to be
tweaked.
- fptools/hslibs still contains (almost) the same stuff as before.
Where libraries have moved into the new hierarchy, the hslibs
version contains a "stub" that just re-exports the new version.
The idea is that code will gradually migrate from fptools/hslibs
into fptools/libraries as it gets cleaned up, and in a version or
two we can remove the old packages altogether.
- I've taken the opportunity to make some changes to the build
system, ripping out the old hslibs Makefile stuff from
mk/target.mk; the new package building Makefile code is in
mk/package.mk (auto-included from mk/target.mk).
The main improvement is that packages now register themselves at
make boot time using ghc-pkg, and the monolithic package.conf
in ghc/driver is gone.
I've updated the standard packages but haven't tested win32,
graphics, xlib, object-io, or OpenGL yet. The Makefiles in
these packages may need some further tweaks, and they'll need
pkg.conf.in files added.
- Unfortunately all this rearrangement meant I had to bump the
interface-file version and create a bunch of .hi-boot-6 files :-(

Change the story on shifting primops: SllOp, SrlOp, ISllOp, ISraOp, ISrlOp.
In the old primop story, these were implemented by C macros which
checked that the shift amount did not exceed the word size, and if so
returns a suitable value (0 or -1). This gives consistent, defined
behaviour for any shift amount. However, these checks were not
implemented on the NCG route, an inconsistency.
New story: these primops do NOT check their args; they just do the shift.
Shift values >= word size give undefined results. To reflect this, their
Haskell names have been prefixed with 'unchecked'.
The checks are now done on the Bits instances in the Prelude. This means
all code generation routes are consistently checked, and hopefully the
simplifier will remove the checks for literal shift amounts.
I have tried to fix up the implementation for 64-bit platforms too, but
not having one to hand, I don't know if it will work as-is.

--------------------------------------------
Translate out PrimOps at the AbstractC level
--------------------------------------------
This is the first in what might be a series of changes intended
to make GHC less dependent on its C back end. The main change is
to translate PrimOps into vanilla abstract C inside the compiler,
rather than having to duplicate that work in each code generation
route. The main changes are:
* A new type, MachOp, in compiler/absCSyn/MachOp.hs. A MachOp
is a primitive operation which we can reasonably expect the
native code generators to implement. The set is quite small
and unlikely to change much, if at all.
* Translations from PrimOps to MachOps, at the end of
absCSyn/AbsCUtils. This should perhaps be moved to a different
module, but it is hard to see how to do this without creating
a circular dep between it and AbsCUtils.
* The x86 insn selector has been updated to track these changes. The
sparc insn selector remains to be done.
As a result of this, it is possible to compile much more code via the
NCG than before. Almost all the Prelude can be compiled with it.
Currently it does not know how to do 64-bit code generation. Once
this is fixed, the entire Prelude should be compilable that way.
I also took the opportunity to clean up the NCG infrastructure.
The old Stix data type has been split into StixStmt (statements)
and StixExpr (now denoting values only). This removes a class
of impossible constructions and clarifies the NCG.
Still to do, in no particular order:
* String and literal lifting, currently done in the NCG at the top
of nativeGen/MachCode, should be done in the AbstractC flattener,
for the benefit of all targets.
* Further cleaning up of Stix assignments.
* Remove word-size dependency from Abstract C. (should be easy).
* Translate out MagicIds in the AbsC -> Stix translation, not
in the Stix constant folder. (!)
Testsuite failures caused by this:
* memo001 - fails (segfaults) for some unknown reason now.
* arith003 - wrong answer in gcdInt boundary cases.
* arith011 - wrong answer for shifts >= word size.
* cg044 - wrong answer for some FP boundary cases.
These should be fixed, but I don't think they are mission-critical for
anyone.

Make rotate fns work properly when rotate count is a multiple of the
word size. This fixes sparc failures in
ghc-regress/numeric/should_run/arith011. Also fix some
copy-and-paste-o-s.Killed by signal 2.

Changes to the Ix class from the revised Haskell 98 report:
- Ord is no longer a superclass of Ix.
- rangeSize is now a class member, as there are cases when
it is useful to be able to override it. As a result, GHC's
performance-improving "unsafeRangeSize" function also has to be
a class method just in case the programmer has overriden
rangeSize. Of course, unsafeRangeSize isn't visible when just
importing Ix.
- Added unsafeRangeSize bindings to all our standard Ix instances.
- Improved the Ix instances for Int{8,16,32,64} and
Word{8,16,32,64} by defining unsafeIndex instead of index, and
providing a definition of unsafeRangeSize.
I hope I haven't mucked anything up :) The array tests all pass
successfully, except for arr016 which depended on Ord being a
superclass of Ix. I'll commit changes to this test shortly.

How I spent my summer vacation.
Primops
-------
The format of the primops.txt.pp file has been enhanced to allow
(latex-style) primop descriptions to be included. There is a new flag
to genprimopcode that generates documentation including these
descriptions. A first cut at descriptions of the more interesting
primops has been made, and the file has been reordered a bit.
31-bit words
------------
The front end now can cope with the possibility of 31-bit (or even 30-bit)
Int# and Word# types. The only current use of this is to generate
external .core files that can be translated into OCAML source files
(OCAML uses a one-bit tag to distinguish integers from pointers).
The only way to get this right now is by hand-defining the preprocessor
symbol WORD_SIZE_IN_BITS, which is normally set automatically from
the familiar WORD_SIZE_IN_BYTES.
Just in case 31-bit words are used, we now have Int32# and Word32# primitive types
and an associated family of operators, paralleling the existing 64-bit
stuff. Of course, none of the operators actually need to be implemented
in the absence of a 31-bit backend.
There has also been some minor re-jigging of the 32 vs. 64 bit stuff.
See the description at the top of primops.txt.pp file for more details.
Note that, for the first time, the *type* of a primop can now depend
on the target word size.
Also, the family of primops intToInt8#, intToInt16#, etc.
have been renamed narrow8Int#, narrow16Int#, etc., to emphasize
that they work on Int#'s and don't actually convert between types.
Addresses
---------
As another part of coping with the possibility of 31-bit ints,
the addr2Int# and int2Addr# primops are now thoroughly deprecated
(and not even defined in the 31-bit case) and all uses
of them have been removed except from the (deprecated) module
hslibs/lang/Addr
Addr# should now be treated as a proper abstract type, and has these suitable operators:
nullAddr# : Int# -> Addr# (ignores its argument; nullary primops cause problems at various places)
plusAddr# : Addr# -> Int# -> Addr#
minusAddr : Addr# -> Addr# -> Int#
remAddr# : Addr# -> Int# -> Int#
Obviously, these don't allow completely arbitrary offsets if 31-bit ints are
in use, but they should do for all practical purposes.
It is also still possible to generate an address constant, and there is a built-in rule
that makes use of this to remove the nullAddr# calls.
Misc
----
There is a new compile flag -fno-code that causes GHC to quit after generating .hi files
and .core files (if requested) but before generating STG.
Z-encoded names for tuples have been rationalized; e.g.,
Z3H now means an unboxed 3-tuple, rather than an unboxed
tuple with 3 commas (i.e., a 4-tuple)!
Removed misc. litlits in hslibs/lang
Misc. small changes to external core format. The external core description
has also been substantially updated, and incorporates the automatically-generated
primop documentation; its in the repository at /papers/ext-core/core.tex.
A little make-system addition to allow passing CPP options to compiler and
library builds.

Heal HEID
- eqForeignObjZh in include/PrimOps.h didn't have quite the right
shape (the result is a macro arg). hslibs/lang/ForeignObj
wasn't up on the change to eqForeignObj now being a primop.
- recent ghc/compiler/deSugar/ changes broke the handling of
CCall & FFI decls quite a bit. Backed out most the rewrites
of Type.splitFoo to TcType.tcSplitFoo (i.e., now back to using
TcType.tcSplitFoo).
The backed-out newtype-related changes were by no means accidental.
But, I don't profess to understand their intention to make the
proper fix, so my change is just a stop-gap measure to get HEAD
back to the land of the living.
- recent changes to the behaviour of 'hiding' & qualified names
broke hslibs/lang/CString hslibs/data/edison/Seq/ListSeq,
hslibs/data/edison/Coll/TestOrdBag, hslibs/data/edison/Coll/UnbalancedSet,
hslibs/data/edison/Coll/TestOrdSet, hslibs/data/edison/Seq/TestSeq
- rename 64-bit 'primop' funs that now live in lib/std/cbits/longlong.c
back to what they used to be called (i.e., prefixed with "stg_").
Why?
- less likely they'll clash with other (user supplied) entry points
at link-time.
- matches protos in ghc/includes/PrimOp.h
|
|
|
|
|

Move 64-bit arithmetic support into std_cbits; there's no reason for it to
be in the RTS.

I/O library rewrite
-------------------
This commit replaces the old C/Haskell I/O implementation with a new
Haskell-only one using the new FFI & hsc2hs.
main points:
- lots of code deleted: we're about 3000 lines of C lighter,
but the amount of Haskell code is about the same.
- performance is ok: some operations are faster, others are
slower. There's still some tuning to do, though.
- the new library is designed to handle read/write streams
much better: a read/write stream gets a special kind of
handle internally called a "DuplexHandle", which actually
contains two separate handles, one for writing and one for
reading. The upshot is that you can do simultaneous reading
and writing to/from a socket or FIFO without any locking
problems. The effect is similar to calling socketToHandle
twice, except that finalization works properly (creating
two separate Handles could lead to the socket being closed
too early when one of the Handles is GC'd).
- hConnectTo and withHandleFor are gone (no one responded to
my mail on GHC users, but we can always bring 'em back if
necessary).
- I made a half-hearted attempt at keeping the system-specific
code in one place: see PrelPosix.hsc.
- I've rearranged the I/O tests and added lots more.
ghc/tests/lib/IO now contains Haskell 98-only IO tests,
ghc/test/lib/{IOExts, Directory, Time} now contain tests for
the relevant libraries. I haven't quite finished in here yet,
the IO tests work but the others don't yet.
- I haven't done anything about Unicode yet, but now we can
start to discuss what needs doing here. The new library
is using MutableByteArrays for its buffers because that
turned out to be a *lot* easier (and quicker) than malloc'd
buffers - I hope this won't cause trouble for unicode
translations though.
WARNING: Windows users refrain from updating until we've had a chance
to fix any issues that arise.
Testing: the basic H98 stuff has been pretty thoroughly tested, but
the new duplex handle stuff is still a little green.

Since overlapping rules (when one is more specific than the other)
seem to be handled well, add remaining fromIntegral rules to have
optimal conversions in all cases (given available primops).
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Move the RULES for intToInt32# and wordToWord32# to PrelBase, so that
PrelInt and PrelWord are no longer orphan modules.
|
|
|

Fix Enum instances for types larger than Int.

Move the -monly-n-regs flags into the Makefile, necessary for .hc

* Add {intToInt,wordToWord}{8,16,32}# primops. WARNING: Not implemented
in ncg for Alpha and Sparc. But -O -fasm is not going to go far anyway
because of other omissions.
* Have full repertoire of 8,16,32-bit signed and unsigned MachMisc.Size
values. Again only x86 is fully supported. They are used for
{index,read,write}{Int,Word}{8,16,32}{OffAddr,Array}# and
{intToInt,wordToWord}{8,16,32}# primops.
* Have full repertoire of
{index,read,write}\
{Char,WideChar,Int,Word,Addr,Float,Double,StablePtr,\
{Int,Word}{8,16,32,64}}\
{OffAddr,Array} primops and appropriate instances.
There were various omissions in various places.
* Add {plus,minus,times}Word# primops to avoid so many Word# <-> Int#
coercions.
* Rewrite modules PrelWord and PrelInt almost from scratch.
* Simplify fromInteger and realToFrac rules. For each of
{Int,Word}{8,16,32} there is just a pair of fromInteger rules
replacing the source or target type with Int or Word. For
{Int,Word,Int64,Word64} there are rules from any to any.
Don't include rules which are derivable from inlining anyway,
e.g. those mentioning Integer. Old explicit coercions are simply
defined as appropriately typed fromInteger.
* Various old coercion functions marked as deprecated.
* Add instance Bits Int, and
instance {Show,Num,Real,Enum,Integral,Bounded,Ix,Read,Bits} Word.
* Coercions to sized integer types consistently behave as cutting the
right amount of bits from the infinite two-complement representation.
For example (fromIntegral (-1 :: Int8) :: Word64) == maxBound.
* ghc/tests/numeric/should_run/arith011 tests {Int,Word}64 and instance
Bits Int, and does not try to use overflowing toEnum. arith011.stdout
is not updated yet because of a problem I will tell about soon.
* Move fromInteger and realToFrac from Prelude to PrelReal.
Move fromInt from PrelNum to PrelReal and define as fromInteger.
Define toInt as fromInteger. fromInteger is the place to write
integer conversion rules for.
* Remove ArrayBase.newInitialisedArray, use default definition of
newArray instead.
* Bugs fixed:
- {quot,rem}Word# primop attributes.
- integerToInt64# for small negative values.
- {min,max}Bound::Int on 64-bit platforms.
- iShiftRL64#.
- Various Bits instances.
* Polishing:
- Use 'ppr' instead of 'pprPrimOp' and 'text . showPrimRep'.
- PrimRep.{primRepString,showPrimRepToUser} removed.
- MachMisc.sizeOf returns Int instead of Integer.
- Some eta reduction, parens, spacing, and reordering cleanups -
sorry, couldn't resist.
* Questions:
- Should iShiftRL and iShiftRL64 be removed? IMHO they should,
s/iShiftRA/iShiftR/, s/shiftRL/shiftR/. The behaviour on shifting
is a property of the signedness of the type, not the operation!
I haven't done this change.
|
|
|
|
| |
Since fromInt was degraded to a function, do the same with toInt.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
fromInt
Remove fromInt from class Num, though it is retained
as an overloaded operation (with unchanged type) in PrelNum.
There are quite a few consequential changes in the Prelude.
I hope I got them all correct!
Also fix a bug that meant Integer (and its instances)
wasn't getting slurped in by the renamer, even though it
was needed for defaulting.

Re-organisation of ghc/lib/std and hslibs/lang
----------------------------------------------
In brief: move deprecated features out of ghc/lib/std and into
hslibs/lang, move new FFI libraries into ghc/lib/std and start
using them.
- foreign import may now return an unboxed type (this was
advertised to work before, but in fact didn't). Subsequent
cleanups in PrelInt/PrelWord.
- Ptr is now defined in ghc/lib/std/PrelPtr.lhs. Ptr is no
longer a newtype of Addr, it is defined directly in terms of
Addr#.
- PrelAddr has disappeared from ghc/lib/std, all uses of Addr in
ghc/lib/std have been replaced with Ptr. The definitions of
Addr has been moved to hslibs/lang/Addr.lhs, as has
lots of other Addr-related stuff.
- ForeignObj has been removed from ghc/lib/std, and replaced with
ForeignPtr. The definition of ForeignObj has been moved to
hslibs/lang/ForeignObj.lhs.
- Most of the new FFI has been moved into ghc/lib/std in the form
of modules PrelMarshalAlloc, PrelCString, PrelCError,
PrelMarshalError, PrelMarshalArray, PrelMarshalUtils,
PrelCTypes, PrelCTypesISO, and PrelStorable. The corresponding
modules in hslibs/lang simply re-export the contents of these
modules.
- PrelPosixTypes defines a few POSIX types (CMode == mode_t,
etc.)
- PrelCError changed to access errno using foreign label and peek
(the POSIX book I have says that errno is guaranteed to be an
extern int, so this should be OK until I get around to making
errno thread-safe).
- Hacked the macros that generate the code for CTypes and
CTypesISO to generate much less code
(ghc/lib/std/cbits/CTypes.h).
- RtsAPI is now a bit more honest when it comes to building heap
objects (it uses the correct constructors).
- the Bits class and related stuff has been moved to ghc/lib/std
(it was simpler this way).
- Directory and System have been converted to use the new FFI.
|
|
|
|
| |
Seems to need -monly-3-regs
|
|
- Add primops for {read,write,index}{Int,Word}{8,16,32,64}OffAddr.
This enables us to remove all the _casm_s from Int/Word.
- Replace new{Char,Int,etc.}Array# with newByteArray# (save a few primops,
at the cost of having to know the size of these types in PrelArr).
- Implement MArray/IArray support for sized types. finally.
- Move the guts of the sized types into ghc/lib/std, we'll need
them for doing more FFIish things in the Prelude.
