* Add performance test for ghci, -fno-code and reloading (#20509)Matthew Pickering2021-10-193-0/+48
| | | | | | This test triggers the bad code path identified by #20509 where an entry into the EPS caused by importing Control.Applicative will retain a stale HomePackageTable.

* New test case: Variant of T14052 with data type definitionsJoachim Breitner2021-10-083-0/+1011
| | | | | | | | | | | | | previous attempts at fixing #11547 and #20455 were reverted because they showed some quadratic behaviour, and the test case T15052 was added to catch that. I believe that similar quadratic behavor can be triggered with current master, by using type definitions rather than value definitions, so this adds a test case similar to T14052. I have hopes that my attempts at fixing #11547 will lead to code that avoid the quadratic increase here. Or not, we will see. In any case, having this in `master` and included in future comparisons will be useful.
* Nested CPR light unleashed (#18174)Sebastian Graf2021-09-301-0/+160
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables worker/wrapper for nested constructed products, as described in `Note [Nested CPR]`. The machinery for expressing Nested CPR was already there, since !5054. Worker/wrapper is equipped to exploit Nested CPR annotations since !5338. CPR analysis already handles applications in batches since !5753. This patch just needs to flip a few more switches: 1. In `cprTransformDataConWork`, we need to look at the field expressions and their `CprType`s to see whether the evaluation of the expressions terminates quickly (= is in HNF) or if they are put in strict fields. If that is the case, then we retain their CPR info and may unbox nestedly later on. More details in `Note [Nested CPR]`. 2. Enable nested `ConCPR` signatures in `GHC.Types.Cpr`. 3. In the `asConCpr` call in `GHC.Core.Opt.WorkWrap.Utils`, pass CPR info of fields to the `Unbox`. 4. Instead of giving CPR signatures to DataCon workers and wrappers, we now have `cprTransformDataConWork` for workers and treat wrappers by analysing their unfolding. As a result, the code from GHC.Types.Id.Make went away completely. 5. I deactivated worker/wrappering for recursive DataCons and wrote a function `isRecDataCon` to detect them. We really don't want to give `repeat` or `replicate` the Nested CPR property. See Note [CPR for recursive data structures] for which kind of recursive DataCons we target. 6. Fix a couple of tests and their outputs. I also documented that CPR can destroy sharing and lead to asymptotic increase in allocations (which is tracked by #13331/#19326) in `Note [CPR for data structures can destroy sharing]`.

T13253 simply does one additional round of Simplification due to Nested CPR. There are also some apparent regressions in T9198, T12234 and PmSeriesG that we (@mpickering and I) were simply unable to reproduce locally. @mpickering tried to run the CI script in a local Docker container and actually found that T9198 and PmSeriesG *improved*. In MRs that were rebased on top this one, like !4229, I did not experience such increases. Let's not get hung up on these regression tests, they were meant to test for asymptotic regressions.

* Pmc: Better SCC annotations and trace outputSebastian Graf2021-08-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | While investigating #20106, I made a few refactorings to the pattern-match checker that I don't want to lose. Here are the changes: * Some key functions of the checker now have SCC annotations * Better `-ddump-ec-trace` diagnostics for easier debugging. I added 'traceWhenFailPm' to see *why* a particular `MaybeT` computation fails and made use of it in `instCon`. I also increased the acceptance threshold of T11545, which seems to fail randomly lately due to ghc/max flukes.

* testsuite: Widen acceptance window of T12545 (#19414)Sebastian Graf2021-06-272-4/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a sequel of #19414, I wrote a script that measures min and max allocation bounds of T12545 based on randomly modifying -dunique-increment. I got a spread of as much as 4.8%. But instead of widening the acceptance window further (to 5%), I committed the script as part of this commit, so that false positive increases can easily be diagnosed by comparing min and max bounds to HEAD. Indeed, for !5814 we have seen T12545 go from -0.3% to 3.3% after a rebase. I made sure that the min and max bounds actually stayed the same. In the future, this kind of check can very easily be done in a matter of a minute. Maybe we should increase the acceptance threshold if we need to check often (leave a comment on #19414 if you had to check), but I've not been bitten by it for half a year, which seems OK.

* Driver Rework PatchMatthew Pickering2021-06-034-109/+129
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch comprises of four different but closely related ideas. The net result is fixing a large number of open issues with the driver whilst making it simpler to understand. 1. Use the hash of the source file to determine whether the source file has changed or not. This makes the recompilation checking more robust to modern build systems which are liable to copy files around changing their modification times. 2. Remove the concept of a "stable module", a stable module was one where the object file was older than the source file, and all transitive dependencies were also stable. Now we don't rely on the modification time of the source file, the notion of stability is moot. 3. Fix TH/plugin recompilation after the removal of stable modules. The TH recompilation check used to rely on stable modules. Now there is a uniform and simple way, we directly track the linkables which were loaded into the interpreter whilst compiling a module. This is an over-approximation but more robust wrt package dependencies changing. 4. Fix recompilation checking for dynamic object files. Now we actually check if the dynamic object file exists when compiling with -dynamic-too Fixes #19774 #19771 #19758 #17434 #11556 #9121 #8211 #16495 #7277 #16093

* Fix over-eager inlining in SimpleOptSimon Peyton Jones2021-02-143-0/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In GHC.Core.SimpleOpt, I found that its inlining could duplicate an arbitary redex inside a lambda! Consider (\xyz. x+y). The occurrence-analysis treats the lamdda as a group, and says that both x and y occur once, even though the occur under the lambda-z. See Note [Occurrence analysis for lambda binders] in OccurAnal. When the lambda is under-applied in a call, the Simplifier is careful to zap the occ-info on x,y, because they appear under the \z. (See the call to zapLamBndrs in simplExprF1.) But SimpleOpt missed this test, resulting in #19347. So this patch * commons up the binder-zapping in GHC.Core.Utils.zapLamBndrs. * Calls this new function from GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify * Adds a call to zapLamBndrs to GHC.Core.SimpleOpt.simple_app This change makes test T12990 regress somewhat, but it was always very delicate, so I'm going to put up with that. In this voyage I also discovered a small, rather unrelated infelicity in the Simplifier: * In GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.simplNonRecX we should apply isStrictId to the OutId not the InId. See Note [Dark corner with levity polymorphism] It may never "bite", because SimpleOpt should have inlined all the levity-polymorphic compulsory inlnings already, but somehow it bit me at one point and it's generally a more solid thing to do.

* Demand: Interleave usage and strictness demands (#18903)Sebastian Graf2020-11-201-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As outlined in #18903, interleaving usage and strictness demands not only means a more compact demand representation, but also allows us to express demands that we weren't easily able to express before. Call demands are *relative* in the sense that a call demand `Cn(cd)` on `g` says "`g` is called `n` times. *Whenever `g` is called*, the result is used according to `cd`". Example from #18903: ```hs h :: Int -> Int h m = let g :: Int -> (Int,Int) g 1 = (m, 0) g n = (2 * n, 2 `div` n) {-# NOINLINE g #-} in case m of 1 -> 0 2 -> snd (g m) _ -> uncurry (+) (g m) ``` Without the interleaved representation, we would just get `L` for the strictness demand on `g`. Now we are able to express that whenever `g` is called, its second component is used strictly in denoting `g` by `1C1(P(1P(U),SP(U)))`. This would allow Nested CPR to unbox the division, for example. Fixes #18903. While fixing regressions, I also discovered and fixed #18957. Metric Decrease: T13253-spj

* Better eta-expansion (again) and don't specilise DFunsSimon Peyton Jones2020-09-224-102/+91
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes #18223, which made GHC generate an exponential amount of code. There are three quite separate changes in here 1. Re-engineer eta-expansion (again). The eta-expander was generating lots of intermediate stuff, which could be optimised away, but which choked the simplifier meanwhile. Relatively easy to kill it off at source. See Note [The EtaInfo mechanism] in GHC.Core.Opt.Arity. The main new thing is the use of pushCoArg in getArg_maybe. 2. Stop Specialise specalising DFuns. This is the cause of a huge (and utterly unnecessary) blowup in program size in #18223. See Note [Do not specialise DFuns] in GHC.Core.Opt.Specialise. I also refactored the Specialise monad a bit... it was silly, because it passed on unchanging values as if they were mutable state. 3. Do an extra Simplifer run, after SpecConstra and before late-Specialise. I found (investigating perf/compiler/T16473) that failing to do this was crippling *both* SpecConstr *and* Specialise. See Note [Simplify after SpecConstr] in GHC.Core.Opt.Pipeline. This change does mean an extra run of the Simplifier, but only with -O2, and I think that's acceptable. T16473 allocates *three* times less with this change. (I changed it to check runtime rather than compile time.) Some smaller consequences * I moved pushCoercion, pushCoArg and friends from SimpleOpt to Arity, because it was needed by the new etaInfoApp. And pushCoValArg now returns a MCoercion rather than Coercion for the argument Coercion. * A minor, incidental improvement to Core pretty-printing This does fix #18223, (which was otherwise uncompilable. Hooray. But there is still a big intermediate because there are some very deeply nested types in that program.

* This patch addresses the exponential blow-up in the simplifier.Simon Peyton Jones2020-07-289-0/+386

The details are explained in GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify Note [Duplicating StrictArg]. Specific changes * In mkDupableCont, when making auxiliary bindings for the other arguments of a call, add extra plumbing so that we don't forget the demand on them. Otherwise we haev to wait for another round of strictness analysis. But actually all the info is to hand. This change affects: - Make the strictness list in ArgInfo be [Demand] instead of [Bool], and rename it to ai_dmds. - Add as_dmd to ValArg - Simplify.makeTrivial takes a Demand - mkDupableContWithDmds takes a [Demand] There are a number of other small changes 1. For Ids that are used at most once in each branch of a case, make the occurrence analyser record the total number of syntactic occurrences. Previously we recorded just OneBranch or MultipleBranches. I thought this was going to be useful, but I ended up barely using it; see Note [Note [Suppress exponential blowup] in GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Utils Actual changes: * See the occ_n_br field of OneOcc. * postInlineUnconditionally 2. I found a small perf buglet in SetLevels; see the new function GHC.Core.Opt.SetLevels.hasFreeJoin 3. Remove the sc_cci field of StrictArg. I found I could get its information from the sc_fun field instead. Less to get wrong! 4. In ArgInfo, arrange that ai_dmds and ai_discs have a simpler invariant: they line up with the value arguments beyond ai_args This allowed a bit of nice refactoring; see isStrictArgInfo, lazyArgcontext, strictArgContext There is virtually no difference in nofib. (The runtime numbers are bogus -- I tried a few manually.)

* Reduce result discount in conSizeSimon Peyton Jones2020-07-132-0/+46

This patch reduces that discount to a constant 10, which just balances the cost of the constructor application itself. Note [Constructor size and result discount] elaborates, as does the ticket #18282. Reducing result discount reduces inlining, which affects perf. I found that I could increase the unfoldingUseThrehold from 80 to 90 in compensation; in combination with the result discount change I get these overall nofib numbers: Program Size Allocs Runtime Elapsed TotalMem -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- boyer -0.2% +5.4% -3.2% -3.4% 0.0% cichelli -0.1% +5.9% -11.2% -11.7% 0.0% compress2 -0.2% +9.6% -6.0% -6.8% 0.0% cryptarithm2 -0.1% -3.9% -6.0% -5.7% 0.0% gamteb -0.2% +2.6% -13.8% -14.4% 0.0% genfft -0.1% -1.6% -29.5% -29.9% 0.0% gg -0.0% -2.2% -17.2% -17.8% -20.0% life -0.1% -2.2% -62.3% -63.4% 0.0% mate +0.0% +1.4% -5.1% -5.1% -14.3% parser -0.2% -2.1% +7.4% +6.7% 0.0% primetest -0.2% -12.8% -14.3% -14.2% 0.0% puzzle -0.2% +2.1% -10.0% -10.4% 0.0% rsa -0.2% -11.7% -3.7% -3.8% 0.0% simple -0.2% +2.8% -36.7% -38.3% -2.2% wheel-sieve2 -0.1% -19.2% -48.8% -49.2% -42.9% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Min -0.4% -19.2% -62.3% -63.4% -42.9% Max +0.3% +9.6% +7.4% +11.0% +16.7% Geometric Mean -0.1% -0.3% -17.6% -18.0% -0.7% I'm ok with these numbers, remembering that this change removes an *exponential* increase in code size in some in-the-wild cases. I investigated compress2. The difference is entirely caused by this function no longer inlining WriteRoutines.$woutputCodes = \ (w :: [CodeEvent]) -> let result_s1Sr = case WriteRoutines.outputCodes_$s$woutput w 0# 0# 8# 9# of (# ww1, ww2 #) -> (ww1, ww2) in (# case result_s1Sr of (x, _) -> map @Int @Char WriteRoutines.outputCodes1 x , case result_s1Sr of { (_, y) -> y } #) It was right on the cusp before, driven by the excessive result discount. Too bad!
