<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Update sanity checking for TSOs:
- 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.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Document the units of -ddump-timings
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)

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Implement mapTyCo like foldTyCo
This patch makes mapType use the successful idiom described
in TyCoRep
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.

This read causes NULL dereferencing when len is 0.
Fixes #17909
In the reproducer in #17909 this bug is triggered as follows:
- SimplOpt.dealWithStringLiteral is called with a single-char string
("=" in #17909)
- tailFS gets called on the FastString of the single-char string.
- tailFS checks the length of the string, which is 1, and calls
mkFastStringByteString on the tail of the ByteString, which is an
empty ByteString as the original ByteString has only one char.
- ByteString's unsafeUseAsCStringLen returns (NULL, 0) for the empty
ByteString, which is passed to mkFastStringWith.
- mkFastStringWith gets hash of the NULL pointer via hashStr, which
fails on empty strings because of this bug.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Simplify treatment of heterogeneous equality
Previously, if we had a [W] (a :: k1) ~ (rhs :: k2), we would
spit out a [D] k1 ~ k2 and part the W as irreducible, hoping for
a unification. But we needn't do this. Instead, we now spit out
a [W] co :: k2 ~ k1 and then use co to cast the rhs of the original
Wanted. This means that we retain the connection between the
spat-out constraint and the original.
The problem with this new approach is that we cannot use the
casted equality for substitution; it's too like wanteds-rewriting-
wanteds. So, we forbid CTyEqCans that mention coercion holes.
All the details are in Note [Equalities with incompatible kinds]
in TcCanonical.
There are a few knock-on effects, documented where they occur.
While debugging an error in this patch, Simon and I ran into
infelicities in how patterns and matches are printed; we made
small improvements.
This patch includes mitigations for #17828, which causes spurious
pattern-match warnings. When #17828 is fixed, these lines should
be removed.

A previous fix for #15344 made sure that monadic 'fail' is used properly
when translating ApplicativeDo. However, it didn't properly account
for when a 'fail' will be inserted which resulted in some programs
failing with a type error.

- There is no more use of the TABLES_NEXT_TO_CODE CPP macro in
`compiler/`. GHCI_TABLES_NEXT_TO_CODE is also removed entirely.
The field within `PlatformMisc` within `DynFlags` is used instead.
- The field is still not exposed as a CLI flag. We might consider some
way to ensure the right RTS / libraries are used before doing that.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Demand analysis: simplify the demand for a RHS
Ticket #17932 showed that we were using a stupid demand for the RHS
of a let-binding, when the result is a product. This was the result
of a "fix" in 2013, which (happily) turns out to no longer be
necessary.
So I just deleted the code, which simplifies the demand analyser,
and fixes #17932. That in turn uncovered that the anticipation
of worker/wrapper in CPR analysis was inaccurate, hence the logic
that decides whether to unbox an argument in WW was extracted into
a function `wantToUnbox`, now consulted by CPR analysis.
I tried nofib, and got 0.0% perf changes.
All this came up when messing about with !2873 (ticket #17917),
but is idependent of it.
Unfortunately, this patch regresses #4267 and realised that it is now
blocked on #16335.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Store ComponentId details
As far as GHC is concerned, installed package components ("units") are
identified by an opaque ComponentId string provided by Cabal. But we
don't want to display it to users (as it contains a hash) so GHC queries
the database to retrieve some infos about the original source package
(name, version, component name).
This patch caches these infos in the ComponentId itself so that we don't
need to provide DynFlags (which contains installed package informations)
to print a ComponentId.
In the future we want GHC to support several independent package states
(e.g. for plugins and for target code), hence we need to avoid
implicitly querying a single global package state.

Within `checkValidDataCon`, we used to run `checkValidType` on the
argument types of a newtype constructor before running
`checkNewDataCon`, which ensures that the user does not attempt
non-sensical things such as newtypes with multiple arguments or
constraints. This works out in most situations, but this falls over
on a corner case revealed in #17955:
```hs
newtype T = Coercible () T => T ()
```
`checkValidType`, among other things, peforms an ambiguity check on
the context of a data constructor, and that it turn invokes the
constraint solver. It turns out that there is a special case in the
constraint solver for representational equalities (read: `Coercible`
constraints) that causes newtypes to be unwrapped (see
`Note [Unwrap newtypes first]` in `TcCanonical`). This special case
does not know how to cope with an ill formed newtype like `T`, so
it ends up panicking.
The solution is surprisingly simple: just invoke `checkNewDataCon`
before `checkValidType` to ensure that the illicit newtype
constructor context is detected before the constraint solver can
run amok with it.
Fixes #17955.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">PmCheck: Adjust recursion depth for inhabitation test
In #17977, we ran into the reduction depth limit of the typechecker.
That was only a symptom of a much broader issue: The recursion depth
of the coverage checker for trying to instantiate strict fields in the
`nonVoid` test was far too high (100, the `defaultMaxTcBound`).
As a result, we were performing quite poorly on `T17977`.
Short of a proper termination analysis to prove emptyness of a type,
we just arbitrarily default to a much lower recursion limit of 3.
Fixes #17977.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Re-engineer the binder-swap transformation
The binder-swap transformation is implemented by the occurrence
analyser -- see Note [Binder swap] in OccurAnal. However it had
a very nasty corner in it, for the case where the case scrutinee
was a GlobalId. This led to trouble and hacks, and ultimately
to #16296.
This patch re-engineers how the occurrence analyser implements
the binder-swap, by actually carrying out a substitution rather
than by adding a let-binding. It's all described in
Note [The binder-swap substitution].
I did a few other things along the way
* Fix a bug in StgCse, which could allow a loop breaker to be CSE'd
away. See Note [Care with loop breakers] in StgCse. I think it can
only show up if occurrence analyser sets up bad loop breakers, but
still.
* Better commenting in SimplUtils.prepareAlts
* A little refactoring in CoreUnfold; nothing significant
e.g. rename CoreUnfold.mkTopUnfolding to mkFinalUnfolding
* Renamed CoreSyn.isFragileUnfolding to hasCoreUnfolding
* Move mkRuleInfo to CoreFVs
We observed respectively 4.6% and 5.9% allocation decreases for the following

GHC 8.10 ships with `Cabal-3.2.0.0`, so it would be convenient to
make Hadrian supporting building against 3.2.* instead of having to
rebuild the entirety of `Cabal-3.0.0.0`. There is one API change in
`Cabal-3.2.*` that affects Hadrian: the `synopsis` and `description`
functions now return `ShortText` instead of `String`. Since Hadrian
manipulates these `String`s in various places, I found that the
simplest fix was to use CPP to convert `ShortText` to `String`s
where appropriate.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Fix two ASSERT buglets in reifyDataCon
Two `ASSERT`s in `reifyDataCon` were always using `arg_tys`, but
`arg_tys` is not meaningful for GADT constructors. In fact, it's
worse than non-meaningful, since using `arg_tys` when reifying a
GADT constructor can lead to failed `ASSERT`ions, as #17305
demonstrates.
This patch applies the simplest possible fix to the immediate
problem. The `ASSERT`s now use `r_arg_tys` instead of `arg_tys`, as
the former makes sure to give something meaningful for GADT
constructors. This makes the panic go away at the very least. There
is still an underlying issue with the way the internals of
`reifyDataCon` work, as described in
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/17305#note_227023, but we
leave that as future work, since fixing the underlying issue is
much trickier (see

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Major improvements to the specialiser
This patch is joint work of Alexis King and Simon PJ. It does some
significant refactoring of the type-class specialiser. Main highlights:
* We can specialise functions with types like
f :: Eq a => a -> Ord b => b => blah
where the classes aren't all at the front (#16473). Here we can
correctly specialise 'f' based on a call like
f @Int @Bool dEqInt x dOrdBool
This change really happened in an earlier patch
commit 2d0cf6252957b8980d89481ecd0b79891da4b14b
Author: Sandy Maguire <sandy@sandymaguire.me>
Date: Thu May 16 12:12:10 2019 -0400
work that this new patch builds directly on that work, and refactors
it a bit.
* We can specialise functions with implicit parameters (#17930)
g :: (?foo :: Bool, Show a) => a -> String
Previously we could not, but now they behave just like a non-class
argument as in 'f' above.
* We can specialise under-saturated calls, where some (but not all of
the dictionary arguments are provided (#17966). For example, we can
specialise the above 'f' based on a call
map (f @Int dEqInt) xs
even though we don't (and can't) give Ord dictionary.
This may sound exotic, but #17966 is a program from the wild, and
showed significant perf loss for functions like f, if you need
saturation of all dictionaries.
* We fix a buglet in which a floated dictionary had a bogus demand
(#17810), by using zapIdDemandInfo in the NonRec case of specBind.
* A tiny side benefit: we can drop dead arguments to specialised
functions; see Note [Drop dead args from specialisations]
* Fixed a bug in deciding what dictionaries are "interesting"; see
Note [Keep the old dictionaries interesting]
This is all achieved by by building on Sandy Macguire's work in
defining SpecArg, which mkCallUDs uses to describe the arguments of
the call. Main changes:
* Main work is in specHeader, which marched down the [InBndr] from the
function definition and the [SpecArg] from the call site, together.
* specCalls no longer has an arity check; the entire mechanism now
handles unders-saturated calls fine.
* mkCallUDs decides on an argument-by-argument basis whether to
specialise a particular dictionary argument; this is new.
See mk_spec_arg in mkCallUDs.
It looks as if there are many more lines of code, but I think that
all the extra lines are comments!

Fixes #17947
When we have a ticky label for a proc, IdLabels for the ticky counter
and proc entry share the same Name. This caused overriding proc CafInfos
with the ticky CafInfos (i.e. NoCafRefs) during SRT analysis.
We now ignore the ticky labels when building SRTMaps. This makes sense
because:
- When building the current module they don't need to be in SRTMaps as
they're initialized as non-CAFFY (see mkRednCountsLabel), so they
don't take part in the dependency analysis and they're never added to
SRTs.
(Reminder: a "dependency" in the SRT analysis is a CAFFY dependency,
non-CAFFY uses are not considered as dependencies for the algorithm)
- They don't appear in the interfaces as they're not exported, so it
doesn't matter for cross-module concerns whether they're in the SRTMap
or not.
See also the new Note [Ticky labels in SRT analysis].

Issue #17151 was a very tricky example of a bug in which the

I have fixed variants of this bug at least twice before:
see Note [Avoiding loops]. It was a bit of a struggle
to isolate the problem, greatly aided by the work that
Alexey Kuleshevich did in distilling a test case.
Once I'd understood the problem, it was not difficult to fix,

We used to have another factor, ufKeenessFactor, which would scale the
discounts before they were subtracted from the size. This was justified
with the following comment:
-- We multiple the raw discounts (args_discount and result_discount)
-- ty opt_UnfoldingKeenessFactor because the former have to do with
-- *size* whereas the discounts imply that there's some extra
-- *efficiency* to be gained (e.g. beta reductions, case reductions)
-- by inlining.
However, this is highly suspect since it means that we subtract a
*scaled* size from an absolute size, resulting in crazy (e.g. negative)
scores in some cases (#15304). We consequently killed off
ufKeenessFactor and bumped up the ufUseThreshold to compensate.
Adjustment of unfolding use threshold
=====================================
Since this removes a discount from our inlining heuristic, I revisited our
default choice of -funfolding-use-threshold to minimize the change in
overall inlining behavior. Specifically, I measured runtime allocations
and executable size of nofib and the testsuite performance tests built
using compilers (and core libraries) built with several values of
-funfolding-use-threshold.
This comes as a result of a quantitative comparison of testsuite
performance and code size as a function of ufUseThreshold, comparing
GHC trees using values of 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100. The test set
consisted of nofib and the testsuite performance tests.
A full summary of these measurements are found in the description of
!2608
Comparing executable sizes (relative to the base commit) across all
nofib tests, we see that sizes are similar to the baseline:
gmean min max median

Finally, I had to add a NOINLINE in T4306 to ensure that `upd` is
worker-wrappered as the test expects. This makes me wonder whether the
inlining heuristic is now too liberal as `upd` is quite a large
function. The same measure was taken in T12600.

This changes every unused TTG extension constructor to be strict in
its field so that the pattern-match coverage checker is smart enough
any such constructors are unreachable in pattern matches. This lets
us remove nearly every use of `noExtCon` in the GHC API. The only
ones we cannot remove are ones underneath uses of `ghcPass`, but that
is only because GHC 8.8's and 8.10's coverage checkers weren't smart
enough to perform this kind of reasoning. GHC HEAD's coverage
checker, on the other hand, _is_ smart enough, so we guard these uses
of `noExtCon` with CPP for now.
Bumps the `haddock` submodule.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Fix CNF handling in compacting GC
Fixes #17937
Previously compacting GC simply ignored CNFs. This is mostly fine as
most (see "What about small compacts?" below) CNF objects don't have
outgoing pointers, and are "large" (allocated in large blocks) and large
objects are not moved or compacted.
However if we do GC *during* sharing-preserving compaction then the CNF
will have a hash table mapping objects that have been moved to the CNF
to their location in the CNF, to be able to preserve sharing.
This case is handled in the copying collector, in `scavenge_compact`,
where we evacuate hash table entries and then rehash the table.
Compacting GC ignored this case.
We now visit CNFs in all generations when threading pointers to the
compacted heap and thread hash table keys. A visited CNF is added to the
list `nfdata_chain`. After compaction is done, we re-visit the CNFs in
that list and rehash the tables.
The overhead is minimal: the list is static in `Compact.c`, and link
field is added to `StgCompactNFData` closure. Programs that don't use
CNFs should not be affected.
To test this CNF tests are now also run in a new way 'compacting_gc',
which just passes `-c` to the RTS, enabling compacting GC for the oldest
generation. Before this patch the result would be:
Unexpected failures:
compact_gc.run compact_gc [bad exit code (139)] (compacting_gc)
compact_huge_array.run compact_huge_array [bad exit code (1)] (compacting_gc)
With this patch all tests pass. I can also pass `-c -DS` without any
failures.
What about small compacts? Small CNFs are still not handled by the
compacting GC. However so far I'm unable to write a test that triggers a
runtime panic ("update_fwd: unknown/strange object") by allocating a
small CNF in a compated heap. It's possible that I'm missing something
and it's not possible to have a small CNF.

these tests should not be perf tests, but for now I'll bump the numbers.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Significant refactor of Lint
This refactoring of Lint was triggered by #17923, which is
fixed by this patch.
The main change is this. Instead of
lintType :: Type -> LintM LintedKind
we now have
lintType :: Type -> LintM LintedType
Previously, all of typeKind was effectively duplicate in lintType.
Moreover, since we have an ambient substitution, we still had to
apply the substition here and there, sometimes more than once. It
was all very tricky, in the end, and made my head hurt.
Now, lintType returns a fully linted type, with all substitutions
performed on it. This is much simpler.
The same thing is needed for Coercions. Instead of
lintCoercion :: OutCoercion
-> LintM (LintedKind, LintedKind,
LintedType, LintedType, Role)
we now have
lintCoercion :: Coercion -> LintM LintedCoercion
Much simpler! The code is shorter and less bug-prone.
There are a lot of knock on effects. But life is now better.

This patch:
1. Writes up a specification for how the types of top-level field
selectors should be determined in a new section of the GHC User's
Guide, and
2. Makes GHC actually implement that specification by using
`conLikeUserTyVarBinders` in `mkOneRecordSelector` to preserve the
order and specificity of type variables written by the user.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Zero out pinned block alignment slop when profiling
The heap profiler currently cannot traverse pinned blocks because of
alignment slop. This used to just be a minor annoyance as the whole block
is accounted into a special cost center rather than the respective object's
CCS, cf. #7275. However for the new root profiler we would like to be able
to visit _every_ closure on the heap. We need to do this so we can get rid
of the current 'flip' bit hack in the heap traversal code.
Since info pointers are always non-zero we can in principle skip all the
slop in the profiler if we can rely on it being zeroed. This assumption
caused problems in the past though, commit a586b33f8e ("rts: Correct
handling of LARGE ARR_WORDS in LDV profiler"), part of !1118, tried to use
the same trick for BF_LARGE objects but neglected to take into account that
shrink*Array# functions don't ensure that slop is zeroed when not
compiling with profiling.
Later, commit 0c114c6599 ("Handle large ARR_WORDS in heap census (fix
as we will only be assuming slop is zeroed when profiling is on.
This commit also reduces the ammount of slop we introduce in the first
place by calculating the needed alignment before doing the allocation for
small objects where we know the next available address. For large objects
we don't know how much alignment we'll have to do yet since those details
are hidden behind the allocateMightFail function so there we continue to
allocate the maximum additional words we'll need to do the alignment.
So we don't have to duplicate all this logic in the cmm code we pull it
into the RTS allocatePinned function instead.

We've had this longstanding issue in the heap profiler, where the time of
the last sample in the profile is sometimes way off causing the rendered
graph to be quite useless for long runs.
It seems to me the problem is that we use mut_user_time() for the last
sample as opposed to getRTSStats(), which we use when calling heapProfile()
in GC.c.
The former is equivalent to getProcessCPUTime() but the latter does
some additional stuff:
getProcessCPUTime() - end_init_cpu - stats.gc_cpu_ns -
stats.nonmoving_gc_cpu_ns
So to fix this just use getRTSStats() in both places.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Add missing addInScope call for letrec binders in OccurAnal
This fixes #18044, where a shadowed variable was incorrectly substituted
by the binder swap on the RHS of a floated-in letrec. This can only
happen when the uniques line up *just* right, so writing a regression
test would be very difficult, but at least the fix is small and
straightforward.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Mark DataCon wrappers CONLIKE
Now that DataCon wrappers don’t inline until phase 0 (see commit
b78cc64e923716ac0512c299f42d4d0012306c05), it’s important that
case-of-known-constructor and RULE matching be able to see saturated
applications of DataCon wrappers in unfoldings. Making them conlike is a
natural way to do it, since they are, in fact, precisely the sort of
thing the CONLIKE pragma exists to solve.
Fixes #18012.
This also bumps the version of the parsec submodule to incorporate a
patch that avoids a metric increase on the haddock perf tests. The
increase was not really a flaw in this patch, as parsec was implicitly
relying on inlining heuristics. The patch to parsec just adds some
INLINABLE pragmas, and we get a nice performance bump out of it (well
beyond the performance we lost from this patch).

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Fix tab-completion for :break (#17989)
In tab-completion for the `:break` command, only those
identifiers should be shown, that are accepted in the
`:break` command. Hence these identifiers must be
- defined in an interpreted module
- top-level
- currently in scope
- listed in a `ModBreaks` value as a possible breakpoint.
The identifiers my be qualified or unqualified.
To get all possible top-level breakpoints for tab-completeion
with the correct qualification do:
1. Build the list called `pifsBreaks` of all pairs of
(Identifier, module-filename) from the `ModBreaks` values.
Here all identifiers are unqualified.
2. Build the list called `pifInscope` of all pairs of
(Identifiers, module-filename) with identifiers from
the `GlobalRdrEnv`. Take only those identifiers that are
in scope and have the correct prefix.
Here the identifiers may be qualified.
3. From the `pifInscope` list seclect all pairs that can be
found in the `pifsBreaks` list, by comparing only the
unqualified part of the identifier.
The remaining identifiers can be used for tab-completion.
This ensures, that we show only identifiers, that can be used
in a `:break` command.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Do eager instantation in terms
This patch implements eager instantiation, a small but critical change
to the type inference engine, #17173. The main change is this:
When inferring types, always return an instantiated type
(for now, deeply instantiated; in future shallowly instantiated)
There is more discussion in
https://www.tweag.io/posts/2020-04-02-lazy-eager-instantiation.html
There is quite a bit of refactoring in this patch:
* The ir_inst field of GHC.Tc.Utils.TcType.InferResultk
has entirely gone. So tcInferInst and tcInferNoInst have collapsed
into tcInfer.
* Type inference of applications, via tcInferApp and
tcInferAppHead, are substantially refactored, preparing
the way for Quick Look impredicativity.
* New pure function GHC.Tc.Gen.Expr.collectHsArgs and applyHsArgs
are beatifully dual. We can see the zipper!
* GHC.Tc.Gen.Expr.tcArgs is now much nicer; no longer needs to return
a wrapper
* In HsExpr, HsTypeApp now contains the the actual type argument,
and is used in desugaring, rather than putting it in a mysterious
wrapper.
* I struggled a bit with good error reporting in
Unify.matchActualFunTysPart. It's a little bit simpler than before,
but still not great.
Some smaller things
* Rename tcPolyExpr --> tcCheckExpr
tcMonoExpr --> tcLExpr
* tcPatSig moves from GHC.Tc.Gen.HsType to GHC.Tc.Gen.Pat

Issue #18076 drew my attention to the undocumented `-fast-llvm` flag for
the LLVM code generator introduced in
22733532171330136d87533d523f565f2a4f102f. Speaking to Moritz about this,
the motivation for this flag was to avoid potential incompatibilities
between LLVM and the assembler/linker toolchain by making LLVM
responsible for machine-code generation.
Unfortunately, this cannot possibly work: the LLVM backend's mangler
performs a number of transforms on the assembler generated by LLVM that
are necessary for correctness. These are currently:
* mangling Haskell functions' symbol types to be `object` instead of
`function` on ELF platforms (necessary for tables-next-to-code)
* mangling AVX instructions to ensure that we don't assume alignment
(which LLVM otherwise does)
* mangling Darwin's subsections-via-symbols directives
Given that these are all necessary I don't believe that we can support
`-fast-llvm`. Let's rather remove it.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">testsuite: Don't attempt to read .std{err,out} files if they don't exist
Simon reports that he was previously seeing framework failures due to
an attempt to read the non-existing T13456.stderr. While I don't know
exactly what this is due to, it does seem like a non-existing
.std{out,err} file should be equivalent to an empty file. Teach the
testsuite driver to treat it as such.

- `ConPat{In,Out}` -> `ConPat`
- `CoPat` -> `XPat (CoPat ..)`
Note that `GHC.HS.*` still uses `HsWrap`, but only when `p ~ GhcTc`.
After this change, moving the type family instances out of `GHC.HS.*` is
sufficient to break the cycle.
Add XCollectPat class to decide how binders are collected from XXPat based on the pass.
Previously we did this with IsPass, but that doesn't work for Haddock's
DocNameI, and the constraint doesn't express what actual distinction is being
made. Perhaps a class for collecting binders more generally is in order, but we
haven't attempted this yet.
Pure refactor of code around ConPat
- InPat/OutPat synonyms removed
- rename several identifiers
- redundant constraints removed
- move extension field in ConPat to be first
- make ConPat use record syntax more consistently
Fix T6145 (ConPatIn became ConPat)
Add comments from SPJ.
Add comment about haddock's use of CollectPass.
Updates haddock submodule.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Switch order on `GhcMake.IsBoot`
In !1798 we were requested to replace many `Bool`s with this data type.
But those bools had `False` meaning `NotBoot`, so the `Ord` instance
would be flipped if we use this data-type as-is.
Since the planned formally-`Bool` occurrences vastly outnumber the
current occurrences, we figured it would be better to conform the `Ord`
instance to how the `Bool` is used now, fixing any issues, rather than
fix them currently with the bigger refactor later in !1798. That way,
!1798 can be a "pure" refactor with no behavioral changes.

The idea being that when a builder('s command) fails, we quite likely want to
have all the information available to figure out why. Depending on the builder
_and_ the particular problem, the useful bits of information can be printed
on stdout or stderr.
We accomplish this by defining a simple wrapper for Shake's `cmd` function,
that just _always_ captures both streams in case the command returns a non-zero
exit code, and by using this wrapper everywhere in `hadrian/src/Builder.hs`.
Fixes #18089.

Unlike other tuples, which use special syntax and are "known" by way

use special syntax. Therefore, in order to make sure that the
internals of GHC are aware of the `data Unit a = Unit a` definition
in `GHC.Tuple`, we give `Unit` known keys. For the full details, see

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Refactoring unit management code
Over the years the unit management code has been modified a lot to keep
up with changes in Cabal (e.g. support for several library components in
the same package), to integrate BackPack, etc. I found it very hard to
understand as the terminology wasn't consistent, was referring to past
concepts, etc.
The terminology is now explained as clearly as I could in the Note
"About Units" and the code is refactored to reflect it.
-------------------
Many names were misleading: UnitId is not an Id but could be a virtual
unit (an indefinite one instantiated on the fly), IndefUnitId
constructor may contain a definite instantiated unit, etc.
* Rename IndefUnitId into InstantiatedUnit
* Rename IndefModule into InstantiatedModule
* Rename UnitId type into Unit
* Rename IndefiniteUnitId constructor into VirtUnit
* Rename DefiniteUnitId constructor into RealUnit
* Rename packageConfigId into mkUnit
* Rename getPackageDetails into unsafeGetUnitInfo
* Rename InstalledUnitId into UnitId
Remove references to misleading ComponentId: a ComponentId is just an
indefinite unit-id to be instantiated.
* Rename ComponentId into IndefUnitId
* Rename ComponentDetails into UnitPprInfo
* Fix display of UnitPprInfo with empty version: this is now used for
units dynamically generated by BackPack
Generalize several types (Module, Unit, etc.) so that they can be used
with different unit identifier types: UnitKey, UnitId, Unit, etc.
* GenModule: Module, InstantiatedModule and InstalledModule are now
instances of this type
* Generalize DefUnitId, IndefUnitId, Unit, InstantiatedUnit,
PackageDatabase
Replace BackPack fake "hole" UnitId by a proper HoleUnit constructor.
Add basic support for UnitKey. They should be used more in the future to
avoid mixing them up with UnitId as we do now.
Add many comments.

PprDebug was a pain to deal with consistently as it is implied by

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">PmCheck: Pick up `EvVar`s bound in `HsWrapper`s for long-distance info
`HsWrapper`s introduce evidence bindings through `WpEvLam` which the
pattern-match coverage checker should be made aware of.
Failing to do so caused #18049, where the resulting impreciseness of
imcompleteness warnings seemingly contradicted with
`-Winaccessible-code`.
The solution is simple: Collect all the evidence binders of an
`HsWrapper` and add it to the ambient `Deltas` before desugaring
the wrapped expression.
But that means we pick up many more evidence bindings, even when they
wrap around code without a single pattern match to check! That regressed
`T3064` by over 300%, so now we are adding long-distance info lazily
through judicious use of `unsafeInterleaveIO`.
Fixes #18049.

Normally, we aren’t supposed to generated any nested casts, since mkCast
takes care to flatten them, but the simple optimizer didn’t use mkCast,
so they could show up after inlining. This isn’t really a problem, since
the simplifier will clean them up immediately anyway, but it can clutter
the -ddump-ds output, and it’s an extremely easy fix.

In GHC.Tc.Gen.Splice.tcNestedSplice we were returning a

the result is discarded. But it happens that tcApp now looks at
the typechecked expression, trivially, to ask if it is tagToEnum.
So being bottom is bad.
Moreover a debug-trace might print it out.
So better to return a civilised expression, even though it is
usually discarded.

Commit e3c374cc5bd7eb49649b9f507f9f7740697e3f70 ended up
fixing quite a few bugs:
* This commit fixes #16244 completely. A regression test has been
added.
* This commit fixes one program from #16245. (The program in
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/16245#note_211369 still
panics, and the program in
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/16245#note_211400 still
loops infinitely.) A regression test has been added for this
program.
* This commit fixes #16758. Accordingly, this patch removes the
`expect_broken` label from the `T16758` test case, moves it from
`should_compile` to `should_fail` (as it should produce an error
message), and checks in the expected stderr.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Refactor hole constraints.
Previously, holes (both expression holes / out of scope variables and
partial-type-signature wildcards) were emitted as *constraints* via
the CHoleCan constructor. While this worked fine for error reporting,
there was a fair amount of faff in keeping these constraints in line.
In particular, and unlike other constraints, we could never change
a CHoleCan to become CNonCanonical. In addition:
* the "predicate" of a CHoleCan constraint was really the type
of the hole, which is not a predicate at all
* type-level holes (partial type signature wildcards) carried
evidence, which was never used
* tcNormalise (used in the pattern-match checker) had to create
a hole constraint just to extract it again; it was quite messy
The new approach is to record holes directly in WantedConstraints.
It flows much more nicely now.
Along the way, I did some cleaning up of commentary in
GHC.Tc.Errors.Hole, which I had a hard time understanding.
This was instigated by a future patch that will refactor
the way predicates are handled. The fact that CHoleCan's
"predicate" wasn't really a predicate is incompatible with
that future patch.
No test case, because this is meant to be purely internal.
It turns out that this change improves the performance of
the pattern-match checker, likely because fewer constraints
are sloshing about in tcNormalise. I have not investigated
deeply, but an improvement is not a surprise here:

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">nonmoving: Fix handling of dirty objects
Previously we (incorrectly) relied on failed_to_evac to be "precise".
That is, we expected it to only be true if *all* of an object's fields
lived outside of the non-moving heap. However, does not match the
behavior of failed_to_evac, which is true if *any* of the object's
fields weren't promoted (meaning that some others *may* live in the
non-moving heap).
This is problematic as we skip the non-moving write barrier for dirty
objects (which we can only safely do if *all* fields point outside of
the non-moving heap).
Clearly this arises due to a fundamental difference in the behavior
expected of failed_to_evac in the moving and non-moving collector.
e.g., in the moving collector it is always safe to conservatively say
failed_to_evac=true whereas in the non-moving collector the safe value
is false.
This issue went unnoticed as I never wrote down the dirtiness
invariant enforced by the non-moving collector. We now define this
invariant as
An object being marked as dirty implies that all of its fields are
on the mark queue (or, equivalently, update remembered set).
To maintain this invariant we teach nonmovingScavengeOne to push the
fields of objects which we fail to evacuate to the update remembered
set. This is a simple and reasonably cheap solution and avoids the
complexity and fragility that other, more strict alternative invariants
would require.
All of this is described in a new Note, Note [Dirty flags in the
non-moving collector] in NonMoving.c.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Bump exceptions submodule so that dist-boot is .gitignore'd
`exceptions` is a stage-0 boot library as of commit
30272412fa437ab8e7a8035db94a278e10513413, which means that building
`exceptions` in a GHC tree will generate a `dist-boot` directory.
However, this directory was not specified in `exceptions`'
`.gitignore` file, which causes it to dirty up the current `git`
working directory.
Accordingly, this bumps the `exceptions` submodule to commit
ghc/packages/exceptions@23c0b8a50d7592af37ca09beeec16b93080df98f,
which adds `dist-boot` to the `.gitignore` file.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Use pointer tag in dataToTag#
While looking at !2873 I noticed that dataToTag# previously didn't look
at a pointer's tag to determine its constructor. To be fair, there is a
bit of a trade-off here: using the pointer tag requires a bit more code
and another branch. On the other hand, it allows us to eliminate looking
at the info table in many cases (especially now since we tag large
constructor families; see #14373).
