There were a few issues with the hackage links:
1. We were using the package id rather than the package name for the
package links. This is fixed by now allowing the template to mention
%pkg% or %pkgid% and substituing both appropiatly.
2. The `--haddock-base-url` flag is renamed to `--haddock-for-hackage`
as the new base link works on a local or remote hackage server.
3. The "src" path including too much stuff, so cross-package source
links were broken as the template was getting double expanded.
Fixes #24086

This commit exposes HeapAlloc.h as a public header. The intention is
to expose HEAP_ALLOCED/HEAP_ALLOCED_GC, so they can be used in
assertions in other public headers, and they may also be useful for

This commit adds an assertion to Bdescr() to assert the pointer is
indeed heap allocated. This is useful to rule out RTS bugs that
attempt to access non-existent block descriptor of a static closure, #24492
being one such example.

These were changes are all triggered by #24471.
1. Make GHC.Core.Opt.SetLevels.lvlMFE behave better when there are
many free variables. See Note [Large free-variable sets].
2. Make GHC.Core.Opt.Arity.floatIn a bit lazier in its Cost argument.
This benefits the common case where the ArityType turns out to
be nullary. See Note [Care with nested expressions]
3. Make GHC.CoreToStg.Prep.cpeArg behave for deeply-nested
expressions. See Note [Eta expansion of arguments in CorePrep]
wrinkle (EA2).
Compile times go down by up to 4.5%, and much more in artificial
cases. (Geo mean of compiler/perf changes is -0.4%.)

* Main change: make the error message generated by mkFunTysMsg more
accurate by changing "value arguments" to "visible arguments".
* Refactor: define a new type synonym VisArity and use it instead of
Arity in a few places.
It might be the case that there other places in the compiler that should
talk about visible arguments rather than value arguments, but I haven't
tried to find them all, focusing only on the error message reported in
the ticket.

Here we introduce the `Backtraces` type and associated machinery for
attaching these via `ExceptionContext`. These has a few compile-time
regressions (`T15703` and `T9872d`) due to the additional dependencies
in the exception machinery.
As well, there is a surprisingly large regression in the
`size_hello_artifact` test. This appears to be due to various `Integer` and
`Read` bits now being reachable at link-time. I believe it should be
possible to avoid this but I have accepted the change for now to get the
feature merged.

This fixes a regression in retainer set profiling introduced by
b0293f78cb6acf2540389e22bdda420d0ab874da. Prior to that commit
the heap traversal word would be initialized by `SET_HDR` using
`LDV_RECORD_CREATE`. However, the commit added a `doingLDVProfiling`
check in `LDV_RECORD_CREATE`, meaning that this initialization no longer
happened.
Given that this initialization was awkwardly indirectly anyways, I have
fixed this by explicitly initializating the heap traversal word to
`NULL` in `SET_PROF_HDR`. This is equivalent to the previous behavior,
but much more direct.
Fixes #24513.

The main purpose of this is to tuck the module name `xxx` in `module xxx where` into the hieAst.
It should fix #24493.
The following have been done:
1. Renamed and update the `tcg_doc_hdr :: Maybe (LHsDoc GhcRn)` to `tcg_hdr_info :: (Maybe (LHsDoc GhcRn), Maybe (XRec GhcRn ModuleName))`
To store the located module name information.
2. update the `RenamedSource` and `RenamedStuff` with extra `Maybe (XRec GhcRn ModuleName)` located module name information.
3. add test `testsuite/tests/hiefile/should_compile/T24493.hs` to ensure the module name is added and update several relevent tests.
4. accompanied submodule haddoc test update MR in https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/haddock/-/merge_requests/53

Previously we would eagerly allocate `InfoTableEnt`s for each
info table registered in the info table provenance map. However, this
costs considerable memory and initialization time. Instead we now
lazily decode these tables. This allows us to use one-third the memory
*and* opens the door to taking advantage of sharing opportunities within
a module.
This required considerable reworking since lookupIPE now must be passed

This reverts commit 615eb855416ce536e02ed935ecc5a6f25519ae16. It was
originally intended to fix #24449, but it was merely sweeping the bug
under the rug. 3836a110577b5c9343915fd96c1b2c64217e0082 has properly
fixed the fragile test, and we no longer need the C version of genSym.
Furthermore, the C implementation causes trouble when compiling with
clang that targets i386 due to alignment warning and libatomic linking
issue, so it makes sense to revert it.

This commit fixes an unnoticed out-of-bound memory access of genSym on
32-bit. ghc_unique_inc is 32-bit sized/aligned on 32-bit platforms,
but we mistakenly treat it as a Word64 pointer in genSym, and
therefore will accidentally load 2 garbage higher bytes, or with a
small but non-zero chance, overwrite something else in the data
section depends on how the linker places the data segments. This
regression was introduced in !11802 and fixed here.

Without an understanding of immutable vs. mutable memory, the index
primop family have a potentially non-intuitive type signature:
indexOffAddr :: Addr# -> Int# -> a
readOffAddr :: Addr# -> Int# -> State# d -> (# State# d, a #)
indexOffAddr# might seem like a free generality improvement, which it
certainly is not!
This change adds a brief note on mutability expectations for most
index/read/write access primops.

During heap analysis, we noticed that during generation of
'mi_extra_decls' we have lots of duplicates for the instances:
* `IfaceTyConInfo NotPromoted IfaceNormalTyCon`
* `IfaceTyConInfo IsPromoted IfaceNormalTyCon`
which should be shared instead of duplicated. This duplication increased
the number of live bytes by around 200MB while loading the agda codebase
into GHCi.
These instances are created during `CoreToIface` translation, in
particular `toIfaceTyCon`.
The generated core looks like:
toIfaceTyCon
= \ tc_sjJw ->
case $wtoIfaceTyCon tc_sjJw of
{ (# ww_sjJz, ww1_sjNL, ww2_sjNM #) ->
IfaceTyCon ww_sjJz (IfaceTyConInfo ww1_sjNL ww2_sjNM)
}
whichs removes causes the sharing to work propery.
Adding explicit sharing, with NOINLINE annotations, changes the core to:
toIfaceTyCon
= \ tc_sjJq ->
case $wtoIfaceTyCon tc_sjJq of { (# ww_sjNB, ww1_sjNC #) ->
IfaceTyCon ww_sjNB ww1_sjNC
}
which looks much more like sharing is happening.
We confirmed via ghc-debug that all duplications were eliminated and the
number of live bytes are noticeably reduced.

Uses responseFile syntax.
The issue arises when GHC is installed on windows into a location that
has a space, for example the user name is 'Fake User'.
The $topdir will also contain a space, consequentially.
When we resolve the top dir in the string `-I$topdir/mingw/include`,
then `words` will turn this single argument into `-I/C/Users/Fake` and
`User/.../mingw/include` which trips up the flag argument parser of
various tools such as gcc or clang.
We avoid this by escaping the $topdir before replacing it in
`initSettngs`.
Additionally, we allow to escape spaces and quotation marks for
arguments in `settings` file.
Add regression test case to count the number of options after variable
expansion and argument escaping took place.
Additionally, we check that escaped spaces and double quotation marks are
correctly parsed.

Before this patch, the global package database was always assumed to be
in libdir </> package.conf.d.
This causes issues in GHC's build system because there are sometimes
situations where the package database you need to use is not located in
the same place as the settings file.
* The stage1 compiler needs to use stage1 libraries, so we should set
"Global Package DB" for the stage1 compiler to the stage1 package
database.
* Stage 2 cross compilers need to use stage2 libraries, so likewise, we
should set the package database path to `_build/stage2/lib/`
* The normal situation is where the stage2 compiler uses stage1
libraries. Then everything lines up.
* When installing we have rearranged everything so that the settings
file and package database line up properly, so then everything should
continue to work as before. In this case we set the relative package
db path to `package.conf.d`, so it resolves the same as before.
* ghc-pkg needs to be modified as well to look in the settings file fo
the package database rather than assuming the global package database
location relative to the lib folder.
* Cabal/cabal-install will work correctly because they query the global
package database using `--print-global-package-db`.
A reasonable question is why not generate the "right" settings files in
the right places in GHC's build system. In order to do this you would
need to engineer wrappers for all executables to point to a specific
libdir. There are also situations where the same package db is used by
two different compilers with two different settings files (think stage2
cross compiler and stage3 compiler).
In short, this 10 line patch allows for some reasonable simplifications
in Hadrian at very little cost to anything else.

Don't use bigNatFromWord#, because that's terrible:
* We shouldn't have to traverse a linked list at run-time
to build a BigNat# literal. That's just silly!
* The static List object we have to create is much larger
than the actual BigNat#'s contents, bloating code size.
* We have to read the corresponding interface file,
which causes un-tracked implicit dependencies. (#23942)
Instead, encode them into the appropriate platform-dependent
sequence of bytes, and generate code that copies these bytes
at run-time from an Addr# literal into a new ByteArray#.
A ByteArray# literal would be the correct thing to generate,
but these are not yet supported; see also #17747.
Somewhat surprisingly, this change results in a slight
reduction in compiler allocations, averaging around 0.5%
on ghc's compiler performance tests, including when compiling
programs that contain no bignum literals to begin with.
The specific cause of this has not been investigated.
Since this lowering no longer reads the interface file for
GHC.Num.BigNat, the reasoning in Note [Depend on GHC.Num.Integer]
is obsoleted. But the story of un-tracked built-in dependencies
remains complex, and Note [Tracking dependencies on primitives]
now exists to explain this complexity.
Additionally, many empty imports have been modified to refer to
this new note and comply with its guidance. Several empty imports
necessary for other reasons have also been given brief explanations.

Heap analysis showed that `IfaceTyCon` retains a thunk to
`IfaceTyConInfo`, defeating the sharing of the most common instances of
`IfaceTyConInfo`.
We make sure the indirection is removed by adding bang patterns to
`IfaceTyCon`.
Experimental results on the agda code base, where the `mi_extra_decls`
were read from disk:
Before this change, we observe around 8654045 instances of:
`IfaceTyCon[Name,THUNK_1_0]`
But these thunks almost exclusively point to a shared value!
Forcing the thunk a little bit more, leads to `ghc-debug` reporting:
`IfaceTyCon[Name:Name,IfaceTyConInfo]`
and a noticeable reduction of live bytes (on agda ~10%).

This fixes #24525, a regression due to 41cbaf44a6ab5eb9fa676d65d32df8377898dc89.
Specifically, GHC expects to find the mingw32 toolchain in the binary distribution
root. However, after this patch it was packaged in the `lib/` directory.

In #24563, we identified that IfaceAppArgs serialisation tags each
cons cell element with a discriminator byte. These bytes add up
quickly, blowing up interface files considerably when
'-fwrite-if-simplified-core' is enabled.
We compact the serialisation by writing out the length of
'IfaceAppArgs', followed by serialising the elements directly without
any discriminator byte.
This improvement can decrease the size of some interface files by up
to 35%.

In #24551, we abstracted a string literal binding over a type variable,
triggering a CoreLint error when that binding floated to top-level.
The solution implemented in this patch fixes this by re-doing dependency
analysis on a simplified recursive let binding that is about to be type
abstracted, in order to find the minimal set of type variables to abstract over.
See wrinkle (AB5) of Note [Floating and type abstraction] for more details.

When checking if a jump has more than one destination account for the
possibility of some jumps not being representable by a BlockId.
We do so by having isJumpishInstr return a `Maybe BlockId` where Nothing
represents non-BlockId jump destinations.

A user may configure `LDFLAGS` but not `LD`. When choosing a linker, we
will prefer `ldd`, then `ld.gold`, then `ld.bfd` -- however, we have to
check for a working linker. If either of these fail, we try the next in
line.
However, we were not considering the `$LDFLAGS` when checking if these
linkers worked. So we would pick a linker that does not support the
current $LDFLAGS and fail further down the line when we used that linker
with those flags.
Fixes #24565, where `LDFLAGS=-Wl,-z,pack-relative-relocs` is not
supported by `ld.gold` but that was being picked still.

For issue #21506, we started cleaning the extended attributes of
binaries and libraries from the bindist *after* they were installed to
workaround notarisation (#17418), as part of `make install`.
However, the `ghc-toolchain` binary that is now shipped with the bindist
must be run at `./configure` time. Since we only cleaned the xattributes
of the binaries and libs after they were installed, in some situations
users would be unable to run `ghc-toolchain` from the bindist, failing
at configure time (#24554).
In this commit we move the xattr cleaning logic to the configure script.
Fixes #24554

This commit fixes clang-specific rts compilation errors when compiling
with TSAN:
- clang doesn't have -Wtsan flag
- Fix prototype of ghc_tsan_* helper functions
- __tsan_atomic_* functions aren't clang built-ins and
sanitizer/tsan_interface_atomic.h needs to be included
- On macOS, TSAN runtime library is
libclang_rt.tsan_osx_dynamic.dylib, not libtsan. -fsanitize-thread
as a link-time flag will take care of linking the TSAN runtime
library anyway so remove tsan as an rts extra library

- Run TSAN jobs with +thread_sanitizer_cmm which enables Cmm
instrumentation as well.
- Run TSAN jobs in deb12 which ships gcc-12, a reasonably recent gcc
that @bgamari confirms he's using in #GHC:matrix.org. Ideally we
should be using latest clang release for latest improvements in
sanitizers, though that's left as future work.
- Mark TSAN jobs as manual+allow_failure in validate pipelines. The
purpose is to demonstrate that we have indeed at least fixed
building of TSAN mode in CI without blocking the patch to land, and
once merged other people can begin playing with TSAN using their own
dev setups and feature branches.

The optimization introducing h$appendToHsString wasn't kicking in
anymore (while it did in 9.8.1) because of the changes introduced in #23270 (7e0c8b3bab30).
This patch reenables the optimization by matching on case-expression, as
done in Cmm for unpackCString# standard thunks.
The test is also T24495 added in the next commits (two commits for ease
of backporting to 9.8).

h$appendToHsString needs to wrap its argument in an updatable thunk
to behave like unpackAppendCString#. Otherwise if a SingleEntry thunk is
passed, it is stored as-is in a CONS cell, making the resulting list
impossible to deepseq (forcing the thunk doesn't update the contents of
the CONS cell)!
The added test checks that the optimization kicks in and that
h$appendToHsString works as intended.

In this patch we just define new CPP vars, but don't yet use them
or replace the existing approach. That will follow.
The intention here is that every I/O manager can be enabled/disabled at
GHC build time (subject to some constraints). More than one I/O manager
can be enabled to be built. At least one I/O manager supporting the
non-threaded RTS must be enabled as well as at least one supporting the
non-threaded RTS. The I/O managers enabled here will become the choices
available at runtime at RTS startup (in later patches). The choice can
be made with RTS flags. There are separate sets of choices for the
threaded and non-threaded RTS ways, because most I/O managers are
specific to these ways. Furthermore we must establish a default I/O
manager for the threaded and non-threaded RTS.
Most I/O managers are platform-specific so there are checks to ensure
each one can be enabled on the platform. Such checks are also where (in
future) any system dependencies (e.g. libraries) can be checked.
The output is a set of CPP flags (in the mk/config.h file), with one
flag per named I/O manager:
* IOMGR_BUILD_<name> : which ones should be built (some)
* IOMGR_DEFAULT_NON_THREADED_<name> : which one is default (exactly one)
* IOMGR_DEFAULT_THREADED_<name> : which one is default (exactly one)
and a set of derived flags in IOManager.h
* IOMGR_ENABLED_<name> : enabled for the current RTS way
Note that IOMGR_BUILD_<name> just says that an I/O manager will be
built for _some_ RTS way (i.e. threaded or non-threaded). The derived
flags IOMGR_ENABLED_<name> in IOManager.h say if each I/O manager is
enabled in the "current" RTS way. These are the ones that can be used
for conditional compilation of the I/O manager code.

Now instead of it being just used on Windows to select between the WinIO
vs the MIO or Win32-legacy I/O managers, it is now used on all platforms
for selecting the I/O manager to use.
Right now it remains the case that there is only an actual choice on
Windows, but that will change later.
Document the --io-manager flag in the user guide.
This change is also reflected in the RTS flags types in the base
library. Deprecate the export of IoSubSystem from GHC.RTS.Flags with a
message to import it from GHC.IO.Subsystem.
The way the 'IoSubSystem' is detected also changes. Instead of looking
at the RTS flag, there is now a C bool global var in the RTS which gets
set on startup when the I/O manager is selected. This bool var says
whether the selected I/O manager classifies as "native" on Windows,
which in practice means the WinIO I/O manager has been selected.
Similarly, the is_io_mng_native_p RTS helper function is re-implemented
in terms of the selected I/O manager, rather than based on the RTS
flags.
We do however remove the ./configure --native-io-manager flag because
we're bringing the WinIO/MIO/Win32-legacy choice under the new general
scheme for selecting I/O managers, and that new scheme involves no
./configure time user choices, just runtime RTS flag choices.

Moves it into the IOManager.c where we can follow the new pattern of

Uses a new IOManager API: syncDelay, following the naming convention of
sync* for thread-synchronous I/O & timer/delay operations.
As part of porting from cmm to C, we maintain the rule that the
why_blocked gets accessed using load acquire and store release atomic
memory operations. There was one exception to this rule: in the delay#
primop cmm code on posix (not win32), the why_blocked was being updated
using a store relaxed, not a store release. I've no idea why. In this
convesion I'm playing it safe here and using store release consistently.

No longer defined in IOManager.h, just a private function in

impl, rather than living in IOManager.c.
On the other hand appendToIOBlockedQueue is still called from cmm code

also used by the select() I/O manager. Update the CPP and comments to
reflect this.

We have lots of functions with conditional implementations for
different I/O managers. Some functions, for some I/O managers,
naturally have implementations that do nothing or barf. When only one
such I/O manager is enabled then the whole function implementation will
have an implementation that does nothing or barfs. This then results in
warnings from gcc that parameters are unused, or that the function
should be marked with attribute noreturn (since barf does not return).
The USED_IF_THREADS trick for fine-grained warning supression is fine
for just two cases, but an equivalent here would need
USED_IF_THE_ONLY_ENABLED_IOMGR_IS_X_OR_Y which would have combinitorial
blowup. So we take a coarse grained approach and simply disable these
two warnings for the whole file.
So we use a GCC pragma, with its handy push/pop support:
#pragma GCC diagnostic push
#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wsuggest-attribute=noreturn"
#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wunused-parameter"
...
#pragma GCC diagnostic pop

rather than directly operating on the IO manager's data structures.
Specifically, when thowing an async exception to a thread that is
blocked waiting for I/O or waiting for a timer, then we want to cancel
that I/O waiting or cancel the timer. Currently this is done directly in
removeFromQueues() in RaiseAsync.c. We want it to go via proper APIs
both for modularity but also to let us support multiple I/O managers.
So add sync{IO,Delay}Cancel, which is the cancellation for the
corresponding sync{IO,Delay}. The implementations of these use the usual
"switch (iomgr_type)" style.

and have the scheduler use it.
Previously the scheduler calls awaitEvent directly, and awaitEvent is
implemented directly in the RTS I/O managers (select, win32). This
relies on the old scheme where there's a single active I/O manager for
each platform and RTS way.
We want to move that to go via an API in IOManager.{h,c} which can then
call out to the active I/O manager.
Also take the opportunity to split awaitEvent into two. The existing
awaitEvent has a bool wait parameter, to say if the call should be
blocking or non-blocking. We split this into two separate functions:
pollCompletedTimeoutsOrIO and awaitCompletedTimeoutsOrIO. We split them
for a few reasons: they have different post-conditions (specifically the
await version is supposed to guarantee that there are threads runnable
when it completes). Secondly, it is also anticipated that in future I/O
managers the implementations of the two cases will be simpler if they
are separated.

When the GC scavenges a TSO it needs to scavenge the tso->blocked_info
but the blocked_info is a big union and what lives there depends on the
two->why_blocked, which for I/O-related reasons is something that in
principle is the responsibility of the I/O manager and not the GC. So
the right thing to do is for the GC to ask the I/O manager to sscavenge
the blocked_info if it encounters any I/O-related why_blocked reasons.
So we add scavengeTSOIOManager in IOManager.{h,c} with the usual style.
Now as it happens, right now, there is no special scavenging to do, so
the implementation of scavengeTSOIOManager is a fancy no-op. That's
because the select I/O manager uses only the fd and target members,
which are not GC pointers, and the win32-legacy I/O manager _ought_ to
be using GC-managed heap objects for the StgAsyncIOResult but it is
actually usingthe C heap, so again no GC pointers. If the win32-legacy
were doing this more sensibly, then scavengeTSOIOManager would be the
right place to do the GC magic.
Future I/O managers will need GC heap objects in the tso->blocked_info
and will make use of this functionality.

Provide an opaque (forward) definition in Capability.h (since the cap
contains a *CapIOManager) and then only provide a full definition in
a new file IOManagerInternals.h. This new file is only supposed to be
included by the IOManager implementation, not by its users. So that
means IOManager.c and individual I/O manager implementations.
The posix/Signals.c still needs direct access, but that should be
eliminated. Anything that needs direct access either needs to be clearly
part of an I/O manager (e.g. the sleect() one) or go via a proper API.

Previously it was unclear that they did not work because the code path
was shared with other I/O managers (in particular select()).
Following the code carefully shows that what actually happens is that
the calling thread would block forever: the thread will be put into the
blocked queue, but no other action is scheduled that will ever result in
it getting unblocked.
It's better to just fail loudly in case anyone accidentally calls it,
also it's less confusing code.

All the changes are in fact not changes at all.
Previously, the IoSubSystem data type was defined in GHC.RTS.Flags and
exported from both GHC.RTS.Flags and GHC.IO.SubSystem. Now, the data
type is defined in GHC.IO.SubSystem and still exported from both
modules.
Therefore, the same exports and same instances are still available from
both modules. But the base-exports records only the defining module, and
so it looks like a change when it is fully compatible.
Related: we do add a deprecation to the export of the type via
GHC.RTS.Flags, telling people to use the export from GHC.IO.SubSystem.
Also the sort order for some unrelated Show instances changed. No idea
why.
The same changes apply in the other versions, with a few more changes
due to sort order weirdness.

When exploring compile-time regressions after meddling with the Simplifier, I
discovered that GHC.HsToCore.Pmc.Solver.Types.trvVarInfo was very delicately
balanced. It's a small, heavily used, overloaded function and it's important
that it inlines. By a fluke it was before, but at various times in my journey it
stopped doing so. So I just added an INLINE pragma to it; no sense in depending
on a delicately-balanced fluke.

This MR started as: allow the simplifer to do more in one pass,
arising from places I could see the simplifier taking two iterations
where one would do. But it turned into a larger project, because
these changes unexpectedly made inlining blow up, especially join
points in deeply-nested cases.
The main changes are below. There are also many new or rewritten Notes.
Avoiding simplifying repeatedly
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
See Note [Avoiding simplifying repeatedly]
* The SimplEnv now has a seInlineDepth field, which says how deep
in unfoldings we are. See Note [Inline depth] in Simplify.Env.
Currently used only for the next point: avoiding repeatedly
simplifying coercions.
* Avoid repeatedly simplifying coercions.
see Note [Avoid re-simplifying coercions] in Simplify.Iteration
As you'll see from the Note, this makes use of the seInlineDepth.
* Allow Simplify.Iteration.simplAuxBind to inline used-once things.
This is another part of Note [Post-inline for single-use things], and
is really good for reducing simplifier iterations in situations like
case K e of { K x -> blah }
wher x is used once in blah.
* Make GHC.Core.SimpleOpt.exprIsConApp_maybe do some simple case
elimination. Note [Case elim in exprIsConApp_maybe]
* Improve the case-merge transformation:
- Move the main code to `GHC.Core.Utils.mergeCaseAlts`, to join `filterAlts`
and friends. See Note [Merge Nested Cases] in GHC.Core.Utils.
- Add a new case for `tagToEnum#`; see wrinkle (MC3).
- Add a new case to look through join points: see wrinkle (MC4)
postInlineUnconditionally
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Allow Simplify.Utils.postInlineUnconditionally to inline variables
that are used exactly once. See Note [Post-inline for single-use things].
* Do not postInlineUnconditionally join point, ever.
Doing so does not reduce allocation, which is the main point,
and with join points that are used a lot it can bloat code.
See point (1) of Note [Duplicating join points] in
GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Iteration.
* Do not postInlineUnconditionally a strict (demanded) binding.
It will not allocate a thunk (it'll turn into a case instead)
so again the main point of inlining it doesn't hold. Better
to check per-call-site.
* Improve occurrence analyis for bottoming function calls, to help
postInlineUnconditionally. See Note [Bottoming function calls]
in GHC.Core.Opt.OccurAnal
Inlining generally
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* In GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Utils.interestingCallContext,
use RhsCtxt NonRecursive (not BoringCtxt) for a plain-seq case.
See Note [Seq is boring] Also, wrinkle (SB1), inline in that
`seq` context only for INLINE functions (UnfWhen guidance).
* In GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Utils.interestingArg,
- return ValueArg for OtherCon [c1,c2, ...], but
- return NonTrivArg for OtherCon []
This makes a function a little less likely to inline if all we
know is that the argument is evaluated, but nothing else.
* isConLikeUnfolding is no longer true for OtherCon {}.
This propagates to exprIsConLike. Con-like-ness has /positive/
information.
Join points
~~~~~~~~~~~
* Be very careful about inlining join points.
See these two long Notes
Note [Duplicating join points] in GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Iteration
Note [Inlining join points] in GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Inline
* When making join points, don't do so if the join point is so small
it will immediately be inlined; check uncondInlineJoin.
* In GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Inline.tryUnfolding, improve the inlining
heuristics for join points. In general we /do not/ want to inline
join points /even if they are small/. See Note [Duplicating join points]
GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Iteration.
But sometimes we do: see Note [Inlining join points] in
GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Inline; and the new `isBetterUnfoldingThan` function.
* Do not add an unfolding to a join point at birth. This is a tricky one
and has a long Note [Do not add unfoldings to join points at birth]
It shows up in two places
- In `mkDupableAlt` do not add an inlining
- (trickier) In `simplLetUnfolding` don't add an unfolding for a
fresh join point
I am not fully satisifed with this, but it works and is well documented.
* In GHC.Core.Unfold.sizeExpr, make jumps small, so that we don't penalise
having a non-inlined join point.
Performance changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Binary sizes fall by around 2.6%, according to nofib.
* Compile times improve slightly. Here are the figures over 1%.
I investiate the biggest differnce in T18304. It's a very small module, just
a few hundred nodes. The large percentage difffence is due to a single
function that didn't quite inline before, and does now, making code size a
bit bigger. I decided gains outweighed the losses.

LinkedLists are notoriously memory ineffiecient when all we do is
traversing a structure.
As 'UnlinkedBCO' has been identified as a data structure that impacts
the overall memory usage of GHCi sessions, we avoid linked lists and
prefer flattened structure for storing.
We introduce a new memory efficient representation of sequential
elements that has special support for the cases:
* Empty
* Singleton
* Tuple Elements
This improves sharing in the 'Empty' case and avoids the overhead of
'Array' until its constant overhead is justified.

`Array` contains three additional `Word`'s we do not need in `FlatBag`. Move

Additionally, allow users to force the elements of a `SmallArray`

For many, many years `GHCForeignImportPrim` has suffered from the rather
restrictive limitation of not allowing any non-trivial types in arguments
or results. This limitation was justified by the code generator allegely
barfing in the presence of such types.
However, this restriction appears to originate well before the NCG
rewrite and the new NCG does not appear to have any trouble with such
types (see the added `T24598` test). Lift this restriction.
Fixes #24598.
