* Enable RemoteGHCi on WindowsTamar Christina2016-01-271-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Makes the needed changes to make RemoteGHCi work on Windows. The approach passes OS Handles areound instead of the Posix Fd as on Linux. The reason is that I could not find any real documentation about the behaviour of Windows w.r.t inheritance and Posix FDs. The implementation with Fd did not seem to be able to find the Fd in the child process. Instead I'm using the much better documented approach of passing inheriting handles. This requires a small modification to the `process` library. https://github.com/haskell/process/pull/52 Test Plan: ./validate On Windows x86_64 Reviewers: thomie, erikd, bgamari, simonmar, austin, hvr Reviewed By: simonmar Subscribers: #ghc_windows_task_force Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D1836 GHC Trac Issues: #11100

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to simplify the task, the version munging logic has been radically simplified: Previously, in cases where the version contained dates as version components, the build-system would munge the version of the stage1 ghc package before registering the `ghc` package. However, this hack was already questionable at the time of its introduction (c.f. 7b45c46cbabe1288ea87bd9b94c57e010ed17e60). Simplifying the build-systems by avoiding such hacks may also help the shaking-up-ghc effort. So now we simply munge directly via the `.cabal` files, which gives a simpler picture, as now every stage is munged the same. Munging is only active when the first patch-level version component is a date. So stable snapshots and release candidates are unaffacted (as those have the date in the second patch-level version component) Reviewers: simonmar, bgamari, austin, thomie, ezyang Reviewed By: bgamari, thomie, ezyang Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D1673
* Remote GHCi, -fexternal-interpreterSimon Marlow2015-12-171-0/+26
Summary: (Apologies for the size of this patch, I couldn't make a smaller one that was validate-clean and also made sense independently) (Some of this code is derived from GHCJS.) This commit adds support for running interpreted code (for GHCi and TemplateHaskell) in a separate process. The functionality is experimental, so for now it is off by default and enabled by the flag -fexternal-interpreter. Reaosns we want this: * compiling Template Haskell code with -prof does not require building the code without -prof first * when GHC itself is profiled, it can interpret unprofiled code, and the same applies to dynamic linking. We would no longer need to force -dynamic-too with TemplateHaskell, and we can load ordinary objects into a dynamically-linked GHCi (and vice versa). * An unprofiled GHCi can load and run profiled code, which means it can use the stack-trace functionality provided by profiling without taking the performance hit on the compiler that profiling would entail. Amongst other things; see https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/RemoteGHCi for more details. Notes on the implementation are in Note [Remote GHCi] in the new module compiler/ghci/GHCi.hs. It probably needs more documenting, feel free to suggest things I could elaborate on. Things that are not currently implemented for -fexternal-interpreter: * The GHCi debugger * :set prog, :set args in GHCi * `recover` in Template Haskell * Redirecting stdin/stdout for the external process These are all doable, I just wanted to get to a working validate-clean patch first. I also haven't done any benchmarking yet. I expect there to be slight hit to link times for byte code and some penalty due to having to serialize/deserialize TH syntax, but I don't expect it to be a serious problem. There's also lots of low-hanging fruit in the byte code generator/linker that we could exploit to speed things up. Test Plan: * validate * I've run parts of the test suite with EXTRA_HC_OPTS=-fexternal-interpreter, notably tests/ghci and tests/th. There are a few failures due to the things not currently implemented (see above).
