* Overhaul of Compact Regions (#12455)Simon Marlow2016-12-071-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: This commit makes various improvements and addresses some issues with Compact Regions (aka Compact Normal Forms). This was the most important thing I wanted to fix. Compaction previously prevented GC from running until it was complete, which would be a problem in a multicore setting. Now, we compact using a hand-written Cmm routine that can be interrupted at any point. When a GC is triggered during a sharing-enabled compaction, the GC has to traverse and update the hash table, so this hash table is now stored in the StgCompactNFData object. Previously, compaction consisted of a deepseq using the NFData class, followed by a traversal in C code to copy the data. This is now done in a single pass with hand-written Cmm (see rts/Compact.cmm). We no longer use the NFData instances, instead the Cmm routine evaluates components directly as it compacts. The new compaction is about 50% faster than the old one with no sharing, and a little faster on average with sharing (the cost of the hash table dominates when we're doing sharing). Static objects that don't (transitively) refer to any CAFs don't need to be copied into the compact region. In particular this means we often avoid copying Char values and small Int values, because these are static closures in the runtime. Each Compact# object can support a single compactAdd# operation at any given time, so the Data.Compact library now enforces mutual exclusion using an MVar stored in the Compact object. We now get exceptions rather than killing everything with a barf() when we encounter an object that cannot be compacted (a function, or a mutable object). We now also detect pinned objects, which can't be compacted either. The Data.Compact API has been refactored and cleaned up. A new compactSize operation returns the size (in bytes) of the compact object. Most of the documentation is in the Haddock docs for the compact library, which I've expanded and improved here. Various comments in the code have been improved, especially the main Note [Compact Normal Forms] in rts/sm/CNF.c. I've added a few tests, and expanded a few of the tests that were there. We now also run the tests with GHCi, and in a new test way that enables sanity checking (+RTS -DS). There's a benchmark in libraries/compact/tests/compact_bench.hs for measuring compaction speed and comparing sharing vs. no sharing. The field totalDataW in StgCompactNFData was unnecessary.

* Use IP based CallStack in error and undefinedEric Seidel2015-09-021-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch modifies `error`, `undefined`, and `assertError` to use implicit call-stacks to provide better error messages to users. There are a few knock-on effects: - `GHC.Classes.IP` is now wired-in so it can be used in the wired-in types for `error` and `undefined`. - `TysPrim.tyVarList` has been replaced with a new function `TysPrim.mkTemplateTyVars`. `tyVarList` made it easy to introduce subtle bugs when you need tyvars of different kinds. The naive ``` tv1 = head $ tyVarList kind1 tv2 = head $ tyVarList kind2 ``` would result in `tv1` and `tv2` sharing a `Unique`, thus substitutions would be applied incorrectly, treating `tv1` and `tv2` as the same tyvar. `mkTemplateTyVars` avoids this pitfall by taking a list of kinds and producing a single tyvar of each kind. - The types `GHC.SrcLoc.SrcLoc` and `GHC.Stack.CallStack` now live in ghc-prim. - The type `GHC.Exception.ErrorCall` has a new constructor `ErrorCallWithLocation` that takes two `String`s instead of one, the 2nd one being arbitrary metadata about the error (but usually the call-stack). A bi-directional pattern synonym `ErrorCall` continues to provide the old API. Updates Cabal, array, and haddock submodules.

* Per-thread allocation counters and limitsSimon Marlow2014-05-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This tracks the amount of memory allocation by each thread in a counter stored in the TSO. Optionally, when the counter drops below zero (it counts down), the thread can be sent an asynchronous exception: AllocationLimitExceeded. When this happens, given a small additional limit so that it can handle the exception. See documentation in GHC.Conc for more details. Allocation limits are similar to timeouts, but - timeouts use real time, not CPU time. Allocation limits do not count anything while the thread is blocked or in foreign code. - timeouts don't re-trigger if the thread catches the exception, allocation limits do. - timeouts can catch non-allocating loops, if you use -fno-omit-yields. This doesn't work for allocation limits. I couldn't measure any impact on benchmarks with these changes, even for nofib/smp.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As discussed on the libraries/haskell-cafe mailing lists http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/libraries/2010-April/013420.html This is a replacement for block/unblock in the asychronous exceptions API to fix a problem whereby a function could unblock asynchronous exceptions even if called within a blocked context. The new terminology is "mask" rather than "block" (to avoid confusion due to overloaded meanings of the latter). The following is the new API; the old API is deprecated but still available for the time being. Control.Exception ----------------- mask :: ((forall a. IO a -> IO a) -> IO b) -> IO b mask_ :: IO a -> IO a uninterruptibleMask :: ((forall a. IO a -> IO a) -> IO b) -> IO b uninterruptibleMask_ :: IO a -> IO getMaskingState :: IO MaskingState data MaskingState = Unmasked | MaskedInterruptible | MaskedUninterruptible Control.Concurrent ------------------ forkIOUnmasked :: IO () -> IO ThreadId

However, for base4-compat we'll need to make a version of catch/try that does a similar mapping.

Unicode-aware Handles ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a significant restructuring of the Handle implementation with the primary goal of supporting Unicode character encodings. The only change to the existing behaviour is that by default, text IO is done in the prevailing locale encoding of the system (except on Windows [1]). Handles created by openBinaryFile use the Latin-1 encoding, as do Handles placed in binary mode using hSetBinaryMode. We provide a way to change the encoding for an existing Handle: GHC.IO.Handle.hSetEncoding :: Handle -> TextEncoding -> IO () and various encodings (from GHC.IO.Encoding): latin1, utf8, utf16, utf16le, utf16be, utf32, utf32le, utf32be, localeEncoding, and a way to lookup other encodings: GHC.IO.Encoding.mkTextEncoding :: String -> IO TextEncoding (it's system-dependent whether the requested encoding will be available). We may want to export these from somewhere more permanent; that's a topic for a future library proposal. Thanks to suggestions from Duncan Coutts, it's possible to call hSetEncoding even on buffered read Handles, and the right thing happens. So we can read from text streams that include multiple encodings, such as an HTTP response or email message, without having to turn buffering off (though there is a penalty for switching encodings on a buffered Handle, as the IO system has to do some re-decoding to figure out where it should start reading from again). If there is a decoding error, it is reported when an attempt is made to read the offending character from the Handle, as you would expect. Performance varies. For "hGetContents >>= putStr" I found the new library was faster on my x86_64 machine, but slower on an x86. On the whole I'd expect things to be a bit slower due to the extra decoding/encoding, but probabaly not noticeably. If performance is critical for your app, then you should be using bytestring and text anyway. [1] Note: locale encoding is not currently implemented on Windows due to the built-in Win32 APIs for encoding/decoding not being sufficient for our purposes. Ask me for details. Offers of help gratefully accepted. Newline Translation ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the old IO library, text-mode Handles on Windows had automatic translation from \r\n -> \n on input, and the opposite on output. It was implemented using the underlying CRT functions, which meant that there were certain odd restrictions, such as read/write text handles needing to be unbuffered, and seeking not working at all on text Handles. In the rewrite, newline translation is now implemented in the upper layers, as it needs to be since we have to perform Unicode decoding before newline translation. This means that it is now available on all platforms, which can be quite handy for writing portable code. For now, I have left the behaviour as it was, namely \r\n -> \n on Windows, and no translation on Unix. However, another reasonable default (similar to what Python does) would be to do \r\n -> \n on input, and convert to the platform-native representation (either \r\n or \n) on output. This is called universalNewlineMode (below). The API is as follows. (available from GHC.IO.Handle for now, again this is something we will probably want to try to get into System.IO at some point): -- | The representation of a newline in the external file or stream. data Newline = LF -- ^ "\n" | CRLF -- ^ "\r\n" deriving Eq -- | Specifies the translation, if any, of newline characters between -- internal Strings and the external file or stream. Haskell Strings -- are assumed to represent newlines with the '\n' character; the -- newline mode specifies how to translate '\n' on output, and what to -- translate into '\n' on input. data NewlineMode = NewlineMode { inputNL :: Newline, -- ^ the representation of newlines on input outputNL :: Newline -- ^ the representation of newlines on output } deriving Eq -- | The native newline representation for the current platform nativeNewline :: Newline -- | Map "\r\n" into "\n" on input, and "\n" to the native newline -- represetnation on output. This mode can be used on any platform, and -- works with text files using any newline convention. The downside is -- that @readFile a >>= writeFile b@ might yield a different file. universalNewlineMode :: NewlineMode universalNewlineMode = NewlineMode { inputNL = CRLF, outputNL = nativeNewline } -- | Use the native newline representation on both input and output nativeNewlineMode :: NewlineMode nativeNewlineMode = NewlineMode { inputNL = nativeNewline, outputNL = nativeNewline } -- | Do no newline translation at all. noNewlineTranslation :: NewlineMode noNewlineTranslation = NewlineMode { inputNL = LF, outputNL = LF } -- | Change the newline translation mode on the Handle. hSetNewlineMode :: Handle -> NewlineMode -> IO () IO Devices ~~~~~~~~~~ The major change here is that the implementation of the Handle operations is separated from the underlying IO device, using type classes. File descriptors are just one IO provider; I have also implemented memory-mapped files (good for random-access read/write) and a Handle that pipes output to a Chan (useful for testing code that writes to a Handle). New kinds of Handle can be implemented outside the base package, for instance someone could write bytestringToHandle. A Handle is made using mkFileHandle: -- | makes a new 'Handle' mkFileHandle :: (IODevice dev, BufferedIO dev, Typeable dev) => dev -- ^ the underlying IO device, which must support -- 'IODevice', 'BufferedIO' and 'Typeable' -> FilePath -- ^ a string describing the 'Handle', e.g. the file -- path for a file. Used in error messages. -> IOMode -- ^ The mode in which the 'Handle' is to be used -> Maybe TextEncoding -- ^ text encoding to use, if any -> NewlineMode -- ^ newline translation mode -> IO Handle This also means that someone can write a completely new IO implementation on Windows based on native Win32 HANDLEs, and distribute it as a separate package (I really hope somebody does this!). This restructuring isn't as radical as previous designs. I haven't made any attempt to make a separate binary I/O layer, for example (although hGetBuf/hPutBuf do bypass the text encoding and newline translation). The main goal here was to get Unicode support in, and to allow others to experiment with making new kinds of Handle. We could split up the layers further later. API changes and Module structure ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ NB. GHC.IOBase and GHC.Handle are now DEPRECATED (they are still present, but are just re-exporting things from other modules now). For 6.12 we'll want to bump base to version 5 and add a base4-compat. For now I'm using #if __GLASGOW_HASKEL__ >= 611 to avoid deprecated warnings. I split modules into smaller parts in many places. For example, we now have GHC.IORef, GHC.MVar and GHC.IOArray containing the implementations of IORef, MVar and IOArray respectively. This was necessary for untangling dependencies, but it also makes things easier to follow. The new module structurue for the IO-relatied parts of the base package is: GHC.IO Implementation of the IO monad; unsafe*; throw/catch GHC.IO.IOMode The IOMode type GHC.IO.Buffer Buffers and operations on them GHC.IO.Device The IODevice and RawIO classes. GHC.IO.BufferedIO The BufferedIO class. GHC.IO.FD The FD type, with instances of IODevice, RawIO and BufferedIO.
