<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">pretty-printer: Properly parenthesise LastStmt
After ApplicatveDo strips the last `return` during renaming, the pretty
printer has to restore it. However, if the return was followed by `$`,
the dollar was stripped too and not restored.
For example, the last stamement in:
```
foo = do
x <- ...
...
return $ f x
```
would be printed as:
```
return f x
```
This commit preserved the dolar, so it becomes:
```
return $ f x
```

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">pretty-printer: Do not print ApplicativeDo join
* Do not print `join` in ApplictiveStmt, unless ppr-debug
* Print parens around multiple parallel binds
When ApplicativeDo is enabled, the renamer analyses the statements of a
`do` block and in certain cases marks them as needing to be rewritten
using `join`.
For example, if you have:
```
foo = do
a <- e1
b <- e2
doSomething a b
```
it will be desugared into:
```
foo = join (doSomething <$> e1 <*> e2)
```
After renaming but before desugaring the expression is stored
essentially as:
```
foo = do
[will need join] (a <- e1 | b <- e2)
[no return] doSomething a b
```
Before this change, the pretty printer would print a call to `join`,
even though it is not needed at this stage at all. The expression will be
actually rewritten into one using join only at desugaring, at which
point a literal call to join will be inserted.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Expose compulsory unfoldings always
The unsafeCoerce# patch requires that unsafeCoerce# has
a compulsory unfolding that is always available. So we have
to be careful to expose compulsory unfoldings unconditionally
and consistently.
We didn't get this quite right: #17871. This patch fixes
it. No real surprises here.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">hadrian: improve dependency tracking for the check-* programs
The code in Rules.Register responsible for finding all the build artifacts
that Cabal installs when registering a library (static/shared libs, .hi files,
...) was looking in the wrong place. This patch fixes that logic and makes sure
we gather all those artifacts in a list to declare that the rule for a given
`.conf` file, our proxy for "Hadrian, please install this package in the package
db for this stage", also produces those artifacts under the said package
database.
We also were completely missing some logic to declare that the check-* programs
have dependencies besides their source code, at least when testing an in-tree
compiler.
Finally, this patch also removes redundant packages from 'testsuitePackages',
since they should already be covered by the stage<N>Packages lists from
Settings.Default.
With this patch, after a complete build and freezing stage 1, a change to
`compiler/parser/Parser.y` results in rebuilding the ghc lib, reinstalling it,
and rebuilding the few programs that depend on it, _including_ `check-ppr` and
`check-api-annotations` (therefore fixing #17273).

Ticket #17590 pointed out a bug in the way the linter dealt with
type lets, exposed by the new uniqAway story.
The fix is described in Note [Linting type lets]. I ended up
putting the in-scope Ids in a different env field, le_ids,
rather than (as before) sneaking them into the TCvSubst.
Surprisingly tiresome, but done.

The non-moving collector would previously walk the entire filled segment
list during the preparatory pause. However, this is far more work than
is strictly necessary. We can rather get away with merely collecting the
allocators' filled segment list heads and process the lists themselves
during the concurrent phase. This can significantly reduce the maximum
gen1 GC pause time in programs with high rates of long-lived allocations.

Ticket #17841 showed that we can get a kind error
in a class signature, but lack an enclosing implication
that binds its skolems.
This patch
* Adds the wrapping implication: the new call to
checkTvConstraints in tcClassDecl1
* Simplifies the API to checkTvConstraints, which
was not otherwise called at all.
* Simplifies TcErrors.report_unsolved by *not*
initialising the TidyEnv from the typechecker lexical
envt. It's enough to do so from the free vars of the
unsolved constraints; and we get silly renamings if
we add variables twice: once from the lexical scope
and once from the implication constraint.

This patch disentangles a bit more DynFlags from the native code
generator (CmmToAsm).
In more details:
- add a new NCGConfig datatype in GHC.CmmToAsm.Config which contains the
configuration of a native code generation session
- explicitly pass NCGConfig/Platform arguments when necessary
- as a consequence `sdocWithPlatform` is gone and there are only a few
`sdocWithDynFlags` left
- remove the use of `unsafeGlobalDynFlags` from GHC.CmmToAsm.CFG
- remove `sdocDebugLevel` (now we pass the debug level via NCGConfig)
There are still some places where DynFlags is used, especially because
of pretty-printing (CLabel), because of Cmm helpers (such as
`cmmExprType`) and because of `Outputable` instance for the
instructions. These are left for future refactoring as this patch is
already big.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Fix global_link of TSOs for threads reachable via dead weaks
Fixes #17785
Here's how the problem occurs:
- In generation 0 we have a TSO that is finished (i.e. it has no more
work to do or it is killed).
- The TSO only becomes reachable after collectDeadWeakPtrs().
- After collectDeadWeakPtrs() we switch to WeakDone phase where we don't
move TSOs to different lists anymore (like the next gen's thread list
or the resurrected_threads list).
- So the TSO will never be moved to a generation's thread list, but it
will be promoted to generation 1.
- Generation 1 collected via mark-compact, and because the TSO is
reachable it is marked, and its `global_link` field, which is bogus at
this point (because the TSO is not in a list), will be threaded.
- Chaos ensues.
In other words, when these conditions hold:
- A TSO is reachable only after collectDeadWeakPtrs()
- It's finished (what_next is ThreadComplete or ThreadKilled)
- It's retained by mark-compact collector (moving collector doesn't
evacuate the global_list field)
We end up doing random mutations on the heap because the TSO's
global_list field is not valid, but it still looks like a heap pointer
so we thread it during compacting GC.
The fix is simple: when we traverse old_threads lists to resurrect
unreachable threads the threads that won't be resurrected currently
stays on the old_threads lists. Those threads will never be visited
again by MarkWeak so we now reset the global_list fields. This way
compacting GC does not thread pointers to nowhere.
Testing
-------
The reproducer in #17785 is quite large and hard to build, because of
the dependencies, so I'm not adding a regression test.
In my testing the reproducer would take a less than 5 seconds to run,
and once in every ~5 runs would fail with a segfault or an assertion
error. In other cases it also fails with a test failure. Because the
tests never fail with the bug fix, assuming the code is correct, this
also means that this bug can sometimes lead to incorrect runtime
results.
After the fix I was able to run the reproducer repeatedly for about an
hour, with no runtime crashes or test failures.
To run the reproducer clone the git repo:
$ git clone https://github.com/osa1/streamly --branch ghc-segfault
Then clone primitive and atomic-primops from their git repos and point
to the clones in cabal.project.local. The project should then be
buildable using GHC HEAD. Run the executable `properties` with `+RTS -c
-DZ`.
In addition to the reproducer above I run the test suite using:
$ make slowtest EXTRA_HC_OPTS="-debug -with-rtsopts=-DS \
-with-rtsopts=-c +RTS -c -RTS" SKIPWAY='nonmoving nonmoving_thr'
This enables compacting GC always in both GHC when building the test
programs and when running the test programs, and also enables sanity
checking when running the test programs. These set of flags are not
compatible for all tests so there are some failures, but I got the same
set of failures with this patch compared to GHC HEAD.

- Remove an invalid assumption about GC checking what_next field. The GC
doesn't care about what_next at all, if a TSO is reachable then all
its pointers are followed (other than global_tso, which is only
followed by compacting GC).
- Remove checkSTACK in checkTSO: TSO stacks will be visited in
checkHeapChain, or checkLargeObjects etc.
- Add an assertion in checkTSO to check that the global_link field is
sane.
- Did some refactor to remove forward decls in checkGlobalTSOList and
added braces around single-statement if statements.

Right now, in the output of -ddump-timings to a file, you can't tell what the units are:
```
CodeGen [TemplateTestImports]: alloc=22454880 time=14.597
```
I believe bytes/milliseconds are the correct units, but confirmation would be appreciated. I'm basing it off of this snippet from `withTiming'`:
```
when (verbosity dflags >= 2 && prtimings == PrintTimings)
$ liftIO $ logInfo dflags (defaultUserStyle dflags)
(text "!!!" <+> what <> colon <+> text "finished in"
<+> doublePrec 2 time
<+> text "milliseconds"
<> comma
<+> text "allocated"
<+> doublePrec 3 (realToFrac alloc / 1024 / 1024)
<+> text "megabytes")
```
which implies time is in milliseconds, and allocations in bytes (which divided by 1024 would be KB, and again would be MB)

This patch makes mapType use the successful idiom described

Note [Specialising foldType]
I have not yet changed any functions to use mapType, though there
may be some suitable candidates.
This patch should be a no-op in terms of functionality but,
because it inlines the mapper itself, I'm hoping that there may
be some modest perf improvements.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Don't update ModDetails with CafInfos when opts are disabled
This is consistent with the interface file behavior where we omit
HsNoCafRefs annotations with -fomit-interface-pragmas (implied by -O0).
ModDetails and ModIface are just different representations of the same
thing, so they really need to be in sync. This patch does the right
thing and does not need too much explanation, but here's an example of a
problem not doing this causes in !2842:
-- MyInteger.hs
module MyInteger
( MyInteger (MyInteger)
, ToMyInteger (toMyInteger)
) where
newtype MyInteger = MyInteger Integer
class ToMyInteger a where
toMyInteger :: a -> MyInteger
instance ToMyInteger Integer where
toMyInteger = MyInteger {- . succ -}
-- Main.hs
module Main
( main
) where
import MyInteger (MyInteger (MyInteger), toMyInteger)
main :: IO ()
main = do
let (MyInteger i) = (id . toMyInteger) (41 :: Integer)
print i
If I build this with -O0, without this fix, we generate a ModDetails with
accurate LFInfo for toMyInteger (MyInteger.$fToMyIntegerInteger) which says that
it's a LFReEntrant with arity 1. This means in the use site (Main) we tag the
value:
R3 = MyInteger.$fToMyIntegerInteger_closure + 1;
R2 = GHC.Base.id_closure;
R1 = GHC.Base.._closure;
Sp = Sp - 16;
call stg_ap_ppp_fast(R4, R3, R2, R1) args: 24, res: 0, upd: 24;
Now we change the definition by uncommenting the `succ` part and it becomes a thunk:
MyInteger.$fToMyIntegerInteger [InlPrag=INLINE (sat-args=0)]
:: MyInteger.ToMyInteger GHC.Integer.Type.Integer
[GblId[DFunId(nt)]] =
{} \u [] $ctoMyInteger_rEA;
and its LFInfo is now LFThunk. This change in LFInfo makes a difference in the
use site: we can no longer tag it.
But becuase the interface fingerprint does not change (because ModIface does not
change) we don't rebuild Main and tag the thunk.
(1.2% increase in allocations when building T12545 on armv7 because we
generate more code without CafInfos)

In #17911, Simon recognised many warnings stemming from over-long list
unions while coverage checking Cabal's `LicenseId` module.
This patch introduces a new `PmAltConSet` type which uses a `UniqDSet`
instead of an association list for `ConLike`s. For `PmLit`s, it will
still use an assocation list, though, because a similar map data
structure would entail a lot of busy work.
Fixes #17911.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Accumulate Haddock comments in P (#17544, #17561)
Haddock comments are, first and foremost, comments. It's very annoying
to incorporate them into the grammar. We can take advantage of an
important property: adding a Haddock comment does not change the parse
tree in any way other than wrapping some nodes in HsDocTy and the like
(and if it does, that's a bug).
This patch implements the following:
* Accumulate Haddock comments with their locations in the P monad.
This is handled in the lexer.
* After parsing, do a pass over the AST to associate Haddock comments
with AST nodes using location info.
* Report the leftover comments to the user as a warning (-Winvalid-haddock).
