* Change GHC.Prim to GHC.Exts in docs and testsKrzysztof Gogolewski2022-04-011-1/+1
| | | | | Users are supposed to import GHC.Exts rather than GHC.Prim. Part of #18749.
* Use Info Table Provenances to decode cloned stack (#18163)Sven Tennie2021-09-231-20/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Emit an Info Table Provenance Entry (IPE) for every stack represeted info table if -finfo-table-map is turned on. To decode a cloned stack, lookupIPE() is used. It provides a mapping between info tables and their source location. Please see these notes for details: - [Stacktraces from Info Table Provenance Entries (IPE based stack unwinding)] - [Mapping Info Tables to Source Positions] Metric Increase: T12545
* Introduce stack snapshotting / cloning (#18741)Sven Tennie2021-09-231-0/+56
Add `StackSnapshot#` primitive type that represents a cloned stack (StgStack). The cloning interface consists of two functions, that clone either the treads own stack (cloneMyStack) or another threads stack (cloneThreadStack). The stack snapshot is offline/cold, i.e. it isn't evaluated any further. This is useful for analyses as it prevents concurrent modifications. For technical details, please see Note [Stack Cloning].
