Use pointer equality in Eq/Ord for ThreadId

Changes (==) to use only pointer equality. This is safe because two
threads are the same iff they have the same id.

Changes `compare` to check pointer equality first and fall back on ids
only in case of inequality.

See discussion in #16761.

hpc: Fix encoding issues. Add test for and fix #17073

* Make sure files are being read/written in UTF-8. Set encoding while writing
  HTML output. Also set encoding while writing and reading .tix files although
  we don't yet have a ticket complaining that this poses problems.
* Set encoding in html header to utf8
* Upgrade to new version of 'hpc' library and reuse `readFileUtf8`
  and `writeFileUtf8` functions
* Update git submodule for `hpc`
* Bump up `hpc` executable version

Take care to not eta-reduce jumps in CorePrep

CorePrep already had a check to prevent it from eta-reducing Ids that
respond true to hasNoBinding (foreign calls, constructors for unboxed
sums and products, and Ids with compulsory unfoldings). It did not,
however, consider join points as ids that 'must be saturated'.

Checking whether the Id responds True to 'isJoinId' should prevent
CorePrep from turning saturated jumps like the following (from #17429)
into undersaturated ones:

      (\ eta_XP ->
         join { mapped_s1vo _ = lvl_s1vs } in jump mapped_s1vo eta_XP)

Make CorePrep.tryEtaReducePrep and CoreUtils.tryEtaReduce line up

Simon PJ says he prefers this fix to #17429 over banning eta-reduction
for jumps entirely. Sure enough, this also works.

Test case: simplCore/should_compile/T17429.hs

Prevent -optc arguments from being duplicated in reverse order (#17471)

This reverts a part of commit
7bc5d6c6578ab9d60a83b81c7cc14819afef32ba that causes all arguments
to `-optc` (and `-optcxx`) to be passed twice to the C/C++ compiler,
once in reverse order and then again in the correct order. While
passing duplicate arguments is usually harmless it can cause breakage
in this pattern, which is employed by Hackage libraries in the wild:

```
ghc Foo.hs foo.c -optc-D -optcFOO
```

As `FOO -D -D FOO` will cause compilers to error.

Fixes #17471.

Make warnings for TH splices opt-in

In #17270 we have the pattern-match checker emit incorrect warnings. The
reason for that behavior is ultimately an inconsistency in whether we
treat TH splices as written by the user (`FromSource :: Origin`) or as
generated code (`Generated`). This was first reported in #14838.

The current solution is to TH splices as `Generated` by default and only
treat them as `FromSource` when the user requests so
(-fenable-th-splice-warnings). There are multiple reasons for opt-in
rather than opt-out:

  * It's not clear that the user that compiles a splice is the author of the code
    that produces the warning. Think of the situation where she just splices in
    code from a third-party library that produces incomplete pattern matches.
    In this scenario, the user isn't even able to fix that warning.
  * Gathering information for producing the warnings (pattern-match check
    warnings in particular) is costly. There's no point in doing so if the user
    is not interested in those warnings.

Fixes #17270, but not #14838, because the proper solution needs a GHC
proposal extending the TH AST syntax.

Whitespace-sensitive bang patterns (#1087, #17162)

This patch implements a part of GHC Proposal #229 that covers five
operators:

* the bang operator (!)
* the tilde operator (~)
* the at operator (@)
* the dollar operator ($)
* the double dollar operator ($$)

Based on surrounding whitespace, these operators are disambiguated into
bang patterns, lazy patterns, strictness annotations, type
applications, splices, and typed splices.

This patch doesn't cover the (-) operator or the -Woperator-whitespace
warning, which are left as future work.

Reduce boolean blindness in OccInfo(OneOcc) #17482

* Transformed the type aliases `InterestingCxt`, `InsideLam` and `OneBranch`
  into data types.
* Added Semigroup and Monoid instances for use in orOccInfo in OccurAnal.hs
* Simplified some usage sites by using pattern matching instead of boolean algebra.

This increase was on a Mac-build of exactly 1%. This commit does *not* re-intruduce

Factor out HsSCC/HsCoreAnn/HsTickPragma into HsPragE

This is a refactoring with no user-visible changes (except for GHC API
users). Consider the HsExpr constructors that correspond to user-written
pragmas:

  HsSCC         representing  {-# SCC ... #-}
  HsCoreAnn     representing  {-# CORE ... #-}
  HsTickPragma  representing  {-# GENERATED ... #-}

We can factor them out into a separate datatype, HsPragE. It makes the
code a bit tidier, especially in the parser.

Before this patch:

  hpc_annot :: { Located ( (([AddAnn],SourceText),(StringLiteral,(Int,Int),(Int,Int))),
                           ((SourceText,SourceText),(SourceText,SourceText))
                         ) }

After this patch:

  prag_hpc :: { Located ([AddAnn], HsPragE GhcPs) }

Pass ModDetails with (partial) ModIface in HscStatus

(Partial) ModIface and ModDetails are generated at the same time, but
they're passed differently: ModIface is passed in HscStatus consturctors
while ModDetails is returned in a tuple. This refactors ModDetails
passing so that it's passed around with ModIface in HscStatus
constructors. This makes the code more consistent and hopefully easier
to understand: ModIface and ModDetails are really very closely related.
It makes sense to treat them the same way.

Improve tests for #17171

While backporting MR !1806 to 8.8.2 (!1885) I learnt the following:

* Tests with `expect_fail` do not compare `*.stderr` output files. So a test using `expect_fail` will not detect future regressions on the `stderr` output.
* To compare the `*.stderr` output files, I have to use the `exit_code(n)` function.
* When a release is made, tests with `makefile_test` are converted to use `run_command`.
* For the test `T17171a` the return code is `1` when running `makefile_test`, however it's `2` when running `run_command`.

Therefore I decided:

* To improve my tests for #17171
* To change test T17171a from `expect_fail` to `exit_code(2)`
* To change both tests from  `makefile_test` to `run_command`

configure.ac: make cross-compiler detection stricter

Be more precise at detecting cross-compilation case.

Before the change configuration
  $ ./configure --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --target=x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl
was not considered a cross-target. Even though libcs are different (`glibc` vs. `musl`).

Make BCO# lifted

In #17424 Simon PJ noted that there is a potentially unsafe occurrence
of unsafeCoerce#, coercing from an unlifted to lifted type. However,
nowhere in the compiler do we assume that a BCO# is not a thunk.
Moreover, in the case of a CAF the result returned by `createBCO` *will*
be a thunk (as noted in [Updatable CAF BCOs]).  Consequently it seems
better to rather make BCO# a lifted type and rename it to BCO.

drop it.

Simplify uniqAway

This does two things:

 * Eliminate all uses of Unique.deriveUnique, which was quite easy to
   mis-use and extremely subtle.

 * Rename the previous "derived unique" notion to "local unique". This
   is possible because the only places where `uniqAway` can be safely
   used are those where local uniqueness (with respect to some
   InScopeSet) is sufficient.

 * Rework the implementation of VarEnv.uniqAway, as discussed in #17462.
   This should make the operation significantly more efficient than its
   previous iterative implementation..

Elf: Fix link info note generation

Previously we would use the `.int` assembler directive to generate
32-bit words in the note section. However, `.int` is note guaranteed to
produce 4-bytes; in fact, on some platforms (e.g. AArch64) it produces
8-bytes. Use the `.4bytes` directive to avoid this.

Moreover, we used the `.align` directive, which is quite platform
dependent. On AArch64 it appears to not even be idempotent (despite what
the documentation claims). `.balign` is consequentially preferred as it
offers consistent behavior across platforms.

nonmoving: Clear segment bitmaps during sweep

Previously we would clear the bitmaps of segments which we are going to
sweep during the preparatory pause. However, this is unnecessary: the
existence of the mark epoch ensures that the sweep will correctly
identify non-reachable objects, even if we do not clear the bitmap.

We now defer clearing the bitmap to sweep, which happens concurrently
with mutation.

Pretty-printing of the * kind

Before this patch, GHC always printed the * kind unparenthesized.

This led to two issues:

1. Sometimes GHC printed invalid or incorrect code.
   For example, GHC would print:  type F @*   x = x
         when it meant to print:  type F @(*) x = x
   In the former case, instead of a kind application we were getting a
   type operator (@*).

2. Sometimes GHC printed kinds that were correct but hard to read.
   Should  Either * Int  be read as  Either (*) Int
                              or as  (*) Either Int  ?
   This depends on whether -XStarIsType is enabled, but it would be
   easier if we didn't have to check for the flag when reading the code.

We can solve both problems by assigning (*) a different precedence. Note
that Haskell98 kinds are not affected:

  ((* -> *) -> *) -> *  does NOT become  (((*) -> (*)) -> (*)) -> (*)

The parentheses are added when (*) is used in a function argument
position:

   F * * *   becomes  F (*) (*) (*)
   F A * B   becomes  F A (*) B
   Proxy *   becomes  Proxy (*)
   a * -> *  becomes  a (*) -> *

rts/NonMovingSweep: Fix locking of new mutable list allocation

Previously we used allocBlockOnNode_sync in nonmovingSweepMutLists
despite the fact that we aren't in the GC and therefore the allocation
spinlock isn't in use. This meant that sweep would end up spinning until
the next minor GC, when the SM lock was moved away from the SM_MUTEX to
the spinlock. This isn't a correctness issue but it sure isn't good for
performance.

Found thanks for Ward.

Fixes #17539.

Implement pointer tagging for big families (#14373)

Formerly we punted on these and evaluated constructors always got a tag
of 1.

We now cascade switches because we have to check the tag first and when
it is MAX_PTR_TAG then get the precise tag from the info table and
switch on that. The only technically tricky part is that the default
case needs (logical) duplication. To do this we emit an extra label for
it and branch to that from the second switch. This avoids duplicated
codegen.

Here's a simple example of the new code gen:

    data D = D1 | D2 | D3 | D4 | D5 | D6 | D7 | D8

On a 64-bit system previously all constructors would be tagged 1. With
the new code gen D7 and D8 are tagged 7:

    [Lib.D7_con_entry() {
         ...
         {offset
           c1eu: // global
               R1 = R1 + 7;
               call (P64[Sp])(R1) args: 8, res: 0, upd: 8;
         }
     }]

    [Lib.D8_con_entry() {
         ...
         {offset
           c1ez: // global
               R1 = R1 + 7;
               call (P64[Sp])(R1) args: 8, res: 0, upd: 8;
         }
     }]

When switching we now look at the info table only when the tag is 7. For
example, if we derive Enum for the type above, the Cmm looks like this:

    c2Le:
        _s2Js::P64 = R1;
        _c2Lq::P64 = _s2Js::P64 & 7;
        switch [1 .. 7] _c2Lq::P64 {
            case 1 : goto c2Lk;
            case 2 : goto c2Ll;
            case 3 : goto c2Lm;
            case 4 : goto c2Ln;
            case 5 : goto c2Lo;
            case 6 : goto c2Lp;
            case 7 : goto c2Lj;
        }

    // Read info table for tag
    c2Lj:
        _c2Lv::I64 = %MO_UU_Conv_W32_W64(I32[I64[_s2Js::P64 & (-8)] - 4]);
        if (_c2Lv::I64 != 6) goto c2Lu; else goto c2Lt;

Generated Cmm sizes do not change too much, but binaries are very
slightly larger, due to the fact that the new instructions are longer in
encoded form. E.g. previously entry code for D8 above would be

    00000000000001c0 <Lib_D8_con_info>:
     1c0:	48 ff c3             	inc    %rbx
     1c3:	ff 65 00             	jmpq   *0x0(%rbp)

With this patch

    00000000000001d0 <Lib_D8_con_info>:
     1d0:	48 83 c3 07          	add    $0x7,%rbx
     1d4:	ff 65 00             	jmpq   *0x0(%rbp)

This is one byte longer.

Secondly, reading info table directly and then switching is shorter

    _c1co:
            movq -1(%rbx),%rax
            movl -4(%rax),%eax
            // Switch on info table tag
            jmp *_n1d5(,%rax,8)

than doing the same switch, and then for the tag 7 doing another switch:

    // When tag is 7
    _c1ct:
            andq $-8,%rbx
            movq (%rbx),%rax
            movl -4(%rax),%eax
            // Switch on info table tag
            ...

Some changes of binary sizes in actual programs:

- In NoFib the worst case is 0.1% increase in benchmark "parser" (see
  NoFib results below). All programs get slightly larger.

- Stage 2 compiler size does not change.

- In "containers" (the library) size of all object files increases
  0.0005%. Size of the test program "bitqueue-properties" increases
  0.03%.

Split up coercionKind

This patch implements the idea in #17515, splitting `coercionKind` into:

 * `coercion{Left,Right}Kind`, which computes the left/right side of the
    pair
 * `coercionKind`, which computes the pair of coercible types

This is reduces allocation since we frequently only need only one side
of the pair. Specifically, we see the following improvements on x86-64
Debian 9:

Ignore unary constraint tuples during typechecking (#17511)

We deliberately avoid defining a magical `Unit%` class, for reasons
that I have expounded upon in the newly added
`Note [Ignore unary constraint tuples]` in `TcHsType`. However, a
sneaky user could try to insert `Unit%` into their program by way of
Template Haskell, leading to the interface-file error observed
in #17511. To avoid this, any time we encounter a unary constraint
tuple during typechecking, we drop the surrounding constraint tuple
application. This is safe to do since `Unit% a` and `a` would be
semantically equivalent (unlike other forms of unary tuples).

Fixes #17511.

rts: Specialize hashing at call site rather than in struct.

Separate word and string hash tables on the type level, and do not store
the hashing function.  Thus when a different hash function is desire it
is provided upon accessing the table. This is worst case the same as
before the change, and in the majority of cases is better. Also mark the
functions for aggressive inlining to improve performance.  {F1686506}

Use "OrCoVar" functions less

As described in #17291, we'd like to separate coercions and expressions
in a more robust fashion.
This is a small step in this direction.

- `mkLocalId` now panicks on a covar.
  Calls where this was not the case were changed to `mkLocalIdOrCoVar`.
- Don't use "OrCoVar" functions in places where we know the type is
  not a coercion.

testsuite: Make ghc_built_by_llvm check more precise

Previously it would hackily look at the flavour name to determine
whether LLVM was used to build stage2 ghc. However, this didn't work at
all with Hadrian and would miss cases like ARM where we use the LLVM
backend by default.

See #16087 for the motivation for why ghc_built_by_llvm is needed at
all. This should catch one of the ARMv7 failures described in #17555.

Add GHC-API logging hooks

* Add 'dumpAction' hook to DynFlags.

It allows GHC API users to catch dumped intermediate codes and
information. The format of the dump (Core, Stg, raw text, etc.) is now
reported allowing easier automatic handling.

* Add 'traceAction' hook to DynFlags.

Some dumps go through the trace mechanism (for instance unfoldings that
have been considered for inlining). This is problematic because:
1) dumps aren't written into files even with -ddump-to-file on
2) dumps are written on stdout even with GHC API
3) in this specific case, dumping depends on unsafe globally stored
DynFlags which is bad for GHC API users

We introduce 'traceAction' hook which allows GHC API to catch those
traces and to avoid using globally stored DynFlags.

* Avoid dumping empty logs via dumpAction/traceAction (but still write
empty files to keep the existing behavior)

Avoid race condition in hDuplicateTo

In our codebase we have some code along the lines of

```
newStdout <- hDuplicate stdout
stderr `hDuplicateTo` stdout
```

to avoid stray `putStrLn`s from corrupting a protocol (LSP) that is
run over stdout.

On CI we have seen a bunch of issues where `dup2` returned `EBUSY` so
this fails with `ResourceExhausted` in Haskell.

I’ve spent some time looking at the docs for `dup2` and the code in
`base` and afaict the following race condition is being triggered
here:

1. The user calls `hDuplicateTo stderr stdout`.
2. `hDuplicateTo` calls `hClose_help stdout_`, this closes the file
handle for stdout.
3. The file handle for stdout is now free, so another thread
allocating a file might get stdout.
4. If `dup2` is called while `stdout` (now pointing to something
else) is half-open, it returns EBUSY.

I think there might actually be an even worse case where `dup2` is run
after FD 1 is fully open again. In that case, you will end up not just
redirecting the original stdout to stderr but also the whatever
resulted in that file handle being allocated.

As far as I can tell, `dup2` takes care of closing the file handle
itself so there is no reason to do this in `hDuplicateTo`. So this PR
replaces the call to `hClose_help` by the only part of `hClose_help`
that we actually care about, namely, `flushWriteBuffer`.

I tested this on our codebase fairly extensively and haven’t been able
to reproduce the issue with this patch.

Previously, `lookupBindGroupOcc`'s error message would recommend all

recommending names in the same namespace, using the

Overloaded Quotation Brackets (#246)

This patch implements overloaded quotation brackets which generalise the
desugaring of all quotation forms in terms of a new minimal interface.

The main change is that a quotation, for example, [e| 5 |], will now
have type `Quote m => m Exp` rather than `Q Exp`. The `Quote` typeclass
contains a single method for generating new names which is used when
desugaring binding structures.

The return type of functions from the `Lift` type class, `lift` and `liftTyped` have
been restricted to `forall m . Quote m => m Exp` rather than returning a
result in a Q monad.

More details about the feature can be read in the GHC proposal.

Better documentation for mkEtaWW [skip ci]

So that hopefully I understand it faster next time. Also got rid of the
confusing `orig_expr`, which makes the call site in `etaExpand` look out
of sync with the passed `n` (which is not the original `n`).

Handle TagToEnum in the same big case as the other primops

Before, it was a panic because it was handled above. But there must have
been an error in my reasoning (another caller?) because #17442 reported
the panic was hit.

But, rather than figuring out what happened, I can just make it
impossible by construction. By adding just a bit more bureaucracy in the
return types, I can handle TagToEnum in the same case as all the others,
so the big case is is now total, and the panic is removed.

Fixes #17442

Get rid of OpDest

`OpDest` was basically a defunctionalization. Just turn the code that

Remove special case case of bool during STG -> C--

Allow removing the no longer needed cgPrimOp, getting rid of a small a
small layer violation too.

Change which made the special case no longer needed was #6135 /
6579a6c73082387f82b994305011f011d9d8382b, which dates back to 2013,
making me feel better.

I have no idea how this working tree got into such a state but we do
need to fail more gracefully when it happens. Consequently, we allow the

Fix chaining tagged and untagged ptrs in compacting GC

Currently compacting GC has the invariant that in a chain all fields are tagged
the same. However this does not really hold: root pointers are not tagged, so
when we thread a root we initialize a chain without a tag. When the pointed
objects is evaluated and we have more pointers to it from the heap, we then add
*tagged* fields to the chain (because pointers to it from the heap are tagged),
ending up chaining fields with different tags (pointers from roots are NOT
tagged, pointers from heap are). This breaks the invariant and as a result
compacting GC turns tagged pointers into non-tagged.

This later causes problem in the generated code where we do reads assuming that
the pointer is aligned, e.g.

    0x7(%rax) -- assumes that pointer is tagged 1

which causes misaligned reads. This caused #17088.

We fix this using the "pointer tagging for large families" patch (#14373,
!1742):

- With the pointer tagging patch the GC can know what the tagged pointer to a
  CONSTR should be (previously we'd need to know the family size -- large
  families are always tagged 1, small families are tagged depending on the
  constructor).

- Since we now know what the tags should be we no longer need to store the
  pointer tag in the info table pointers when forming chains in the compacting
  GC.

As a result we no longer need to tag pointers in chains with 1/2 depending on
whether the field points to an info table pointer, or to another field: an info
table pointer is always tagged 0, everything else in the chain is tagged 1. The
lost tags in pointers can be retrieved by looking at the info table.

Finally, instead of using tag 1 for fields and tag 0 for info table pointers, we
use two different tags for fields:

- 1 for fields that have untagged pointers
- 2 for fields that have tagged pointers

When unchaining we then look at the pointer to a field, and depending on its tag
we either leave a tagged pointer or an untagged pointer in the field.

This allows chaining untagged and tagged fields together in compacting GC.

Fixes #17088

PmCheck: Formulate as translation between Clause Trees

We used to check `GrdVec`s arising from multiple clauses and guards in
isolation. That resulted in a split between `pmCheck` and
`pmCheckGuards`, the implementations of which were similar, but subtly
different in detail. Also the throttling mechanism described in
`Note [Countering exponential blowup]` ultimately got quite complicated
because it had to cater for both checking functions.

This patch realises that pattern match checking doesn't just consider
single guarded RHSs, but that it's always a whole set of clauses, each
of which can have multiple guarded RHSs in turn. We do so by
translating a list of `Match`es to a `GrdTree`:

```haskell
data GrdTree
  = Rhs !RhsInfo
  | Guard !PmGrd !GrdTree      -- captures lef-to-right  match semantics
  | Sequence !GrdTree !GrdTree -- captures top-to-bottom match semantics
  | Empty                      -- For -XEmptyCase, neutral element of Sequence
```

Then we have a function `checkGrdTree` that matches a given `GrdTree`
against an incoming set of values, represented by `Deltas`:

```haskell
checkGrdTree :: GrdTree -> Deltas -> CheckResult
...
```

Throttling is isolated to the `Sequence` case and becomes as easy as one
would expect: When the union of uncovered values becomes too big, just
return the original incoming `Deltas` instead (which is always a
superset of the union, thus a sound approximation).

The returned `CheckResult` contains two things:

1. The set of values that were not covered by any of the clauses, for
   exhaustivity warnings.
2. The `AnnotatedTree` that enriches the syntactic structure of the
   input program with divergence and inaccessibility information.

This is `AnnotatedTree`:

```haskell
data AnnotatedTree
  = AccessibleRhs !RhsInfo
  | InaccessibleRhs !RhsInfo
  | MayDiverge !AnnotatedTree
  | SequenceAnn !AnnotatedTree !AnnotatedTree
  | EmptyAnn
```

Crucially, `MayDiverge` asserts that the tree may force diverging
values, so not all of its wrapped clauses can be redundant.

While the set of uncovered values can be used to generate the missing
equations for warning messages, redundant and proper inaccessible
equations can be extracted from `AnnotatedTree` by
`redundantAndInaccessibleRhss`.

For this to work properly, the interface to the Oracle had to change.
There's only `addPmCts` now, which takes a bag of `PmCt`s. There's a
whole bunch of `PmCt` variants to replace the different oracle functions
from before.

The new `AnnotatedTree` structure allows for more accurate warning
reporting (as evidenced by a number of changes spread throughout GHC's
code base), thus we fix #17465.

Fixes #17646 on the go.

PmCheck: Properly handle constructor-bound type variables

In https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/merge_requests/2192#note_246551
Simon convinced me that ignoring type variables existentially bound by
data constructors have to be the same way as value binders.

Sadly I couldn't think of a regression test, but I'm confident that this
change strictly improves on the status quo.

Handle local fixity declarations in DsMeta properly

`DsMeta.rep_sig` used to skip over `FixSig` entirely, which had the
effect of causing local fixity declarations to be dropped when quoted
in Template Haskell. But there is no good reason for this state of
affairs, as the code in `DsMeta.repFixD` (which handles top-level
fixity declarations) handles local fixity declarations just fine.
This patch factors out the necessary parts of `repFixD` so that they
can be used in `rep_sig` as well.

There was one minor complication: the fixity signatures for class
methods in each `HsGroup` were stored both in `FixSig`s _and_ the
list of `LFixitySig`s for top-level fixity signatures, so I needed
to take action to prevent fixity signatures for class methods being
converted to `Dec`s twice. I tweaked `RnSource.add` to avoid putting
these fixity signatures in two places and added
`Note [Top-level fixity signatures in an HsGroup]` in `GHC.Hs.Decls`
to explain the new design.

Fixes #17608. Bumps the Haddock submodule.

Do not bring visible foralls into scope in hsScopedTvs

Previously, `hsScopedTvs` (and its cousin `hsWcScopedTvs`) pretended
that visible dependent quantification could not possibly happen at
the term level, and cemented that assumption with an `ASSERT`:

```hs
    hsScopedTvs (HsForAllTy { hst_fvf = vis_flag, ... }) =
      ASSERT( vis_flag == ForallInvis )
      ...
```

It turns out that this assumption is wrong. You can end up tripping
this `ASSERT` if you stick it to the man and write a type for a term
that uses visible dependent quantification anyway, like in this
example:

```hs
{-# LANGUAGE ScopedTypeVariables #-}

x :: forall a -> a -> a
x = x
```

That won't typecheck, but that's not the point. Before the
typechecker has a chance to reject this, the renamer will try
to use `hsScopedTvs` to bring `a` into scope over the body of `x`,
since `a` is quantified by a `forall`. This, in turn, causes the
`ASSERT` to fail. Bummer.

Instead of walking on this dangerous ground, this patch makes GHC
adopt a more hardline stance by pattern-matching directly on
`ForallInvis` in `hsScopedTvs`:

```hs
    hsScopedTvs (HsForAllTy { hst_fvf = ForallInvis, ... }) = ...
```

Now `a` will not be brought over the body of `x` at all (which is how
it should be), there's no chance of the `ASSERT` failing anymore (as
it's gone), and best of all, the behavior of `hsScopedTvs` does not
change. Everyone wins!

Fixes #17687.

Use splitLHs{ForAll,Sigma}TyInvis throughout the codebase

Richard points out in #17688 that we use `splitLHsForAllTy` and
`splitLHsSigmaTy` in places that we ought to be using the
corresponding `-Invis` variants instead, identifying two bugs
that are caused by this oversight:

* Certain TH-quoted type signatures, such as those that appear in
  quoted `SPECIALISE` pragmas, silently turn visible `forall`s into
  invisible `forall`s.
* When quoted, the type `forall a -> (a ~ a) => a` will turn into
  `forall a -> a` due to a bug in `DsMeta.repForall` that drops
  contexts that follow visible `forall`s.

These are both ultimately caused by the fact that `splitLHsForAllTy`
and `splitLHsSigmaTy` split apart visible `forall`s in addition to
invisible ones. This patch cleans things up:

* We now use `splitLHsForAllTyInvis` and `splitLHsSigmaTyInvis`
  throughout the codebase. Relatedly, the `splitLHsForAllTy` and
  `splitLHsSigmaTy` have been removed, as they are easy to misuse.
* `DsMeta.repForall` now only handles invisible `forall`s to reduce
  the chance for confusion with visible `forall`s, which need to be
  handled differently. I also renamed it from `repForall` to
  `repForallT` to emphasize that its distinguishing characteristic
  is the fact that it desugars down to `L.H.TH.Syntax.ForallT`.

Fixes #17688.

Refactor package related code

The package terminology is a bit of a mess. Cabal packages contain
components. Instances of these components when built with some
flags/options/dependencies are called units. Units are registered into
package databases and their metadata are called PackageConfig.

GHC only knows about package databases containing units. It is a sad
mismatch not fixed by this patch (we would have to rename parameters
such as `package-id <unit-id>` which would affect users).

This patch however fixes the following internal names:

- Renames PackageConfig into UnitInfo.
- Rename systemPackageConfig into globalPackageDatabase[Path]
- Rename PkgConfXX into PkgDbXX
- Rename pkgIdMap into unitIdMap
- Rename ModuleToPkgDbAll into ModuleNameProvidersMap
- Rename lookupPackage into lookupUnit
- Add comments on DynFlags package related fields

It also introduces a new `PackageDatabase` datatype instead of
explicitly passing the following tuple: `(FilePath,[PackageConfig])`.

The `pkgDatabase` field in `DynFlags` now contains the unit info for
each unit of each package database exactly as they have been read from
disk. Previously the command-line flag `-distrust-all-packages` would
modify these unit info. Now this flag only affects the "dynamic"
consolidated package state found in `pkgState` field. It makes sense
because `initPackages` could be called first with this
`distrust-all-packages` flag set and then again (using ghc-api) without
and it should work (package databases are not read again from disk when
`initPackages` is called the second time).

Do CafInfo/SRT analysis in Cmm

This patch removes all CafInfo predictions and various hacks to preserve
predicted CafInfos from the compiler and assigns final CafInfos to
interface Ids after code generation. SRT analysis is extended to support
static data, and Cmm generator is modified to allow generating
static_link fields after SRT analysis.

This also fixes `-fcatch-bottoms`, which introduces error calls in case
expressions in CorePrep, which runs *after* CoreTidy (which is where we
decide on CafInfos) and turns previously non-CAFFY things into CAFFY.

Manual inspection of programs in testsuite/tests/programs
---------------------------------------------------------

I built these programs with a bunch of dump flags and `-O` and compared
STG, Cmm, and Asm dumps and file sizes.

(Below the numbers in parenthesis show number of modules in the program)

These programs have identical compiler (same .hi and .o sizes, STG, and
Cmm and Asm dumps):

- Queens (1), andre_monad (1), cholewo-eval (2), cvh_unboxing (3),
  andy_cherry (7), fun_insts (1), hs-boot (4), fast2haskell (2),
  jl_defaults (1), jq_readsPrec (1), jules_xref (1), jtod_circint (4),
  jules_xref2 (1), lennart_range (1), lex (1), life_space_leak (1),
  bargon-mangler-bug (7), record_upd (1), rittri (1), sanders_array (1),
  strict_anns (1), thurston-module-arith (2), okeefe_neural (1),
  joao-circular (6), 10queens (1)

Programs with different compiler outputs:

- jl_defaults (1): For some reason GHC HEAD marks a lot of top-level
  `[Int]` closures as CAFFY for no reason. With this patch we no longer
  make them CAFFY and generate less SRT entries. For some reason Main.o
  is slightly larger with this patch (1.3%) and the executable sizes are
  the same. (I'd expect both to be smaller)

- launchbury (1): Same as jl_defaults: top-level `[Int]` closures marked
  as CAFFY for no reason. Similarly `Main.o` is 1.4% larger but the
  executable sizes are the same.

- galois_raytrace (13): Differences are in the Parse module. There are a
  lot, but some of the changes are caused by the fact that for some
  reason (I think a bug) GHC HEAD marks the dictionary for `Functor
  Identity` as CAFFY. Parse.o is 0.4% larger, the executable size is the
  same.

- north_array: We now generate less SRT entries because some of array
  primops used in this program like `NewArrayOp` get eliminated during
  Stg-to-Cmm and turn some CAFFY things into non-CAFFY. Main.o gets 24%
  larger (9224 bytes from 9000 bytes), executable sizes are the same.

- seward-space-leak: Difference in this program is better shown by this
  smaller example:

      module Lib where

      data CDS
        = Case [CDS] [(Int, CDS)]
        | Call CDS CDS

      instance Eq CDS where
        Case sels1 rets1 == Case sels2 rets2 =
            sels1 == sels2 && rets1 == rets2
        Call a1 b1 == Call a2 b2 =
            a1 == a2 && b1 == b2
        _ == _ =
            False

   In this program GHC HEAD builds a new SRT for the recursive group of
   `(==)`, `(/=)` and the dictionary closure. Then `/=` points to `==`
   in its SRT field, and `==` uses the SRT object as its SRT. With this
   patch we use the closure for `/=` as the SRT and add `==` there. Then
   `/=` gets an empty SRT field and `==` points to `/=` in its SRT
   field.

   This change looks fine to me.

   Main.o gets 0.07% larger, executable sizes are identical.

head.hackage
------------

head.hackage's CI script builds 428 packages from Hackage using this
patch with no failures.

Compiler performance
--------------------

The compiler perf tests report that the compiler allocates slightly more
(worst case observed so far is 4%). However most programs in the test
suite are small, single file programs. To benchmark compiler performance
on something more realistic I build Cabal (the library, 236 modules)
with different optimisation levels. For the "max residency" row I run
GHC with `+RTS -s -A100k -i0 -h` for more accurate numbers. Other rows
are generated with just `-s`. (This is because `-i0` causes running GC
much more frequently and as a result "bytes copied" gets inflated by
more than 25x in some cases)

* -O0

|                 | GHC HEAD       | This MR        | Diff   |
| --------------- | -------------- | -------------- | ------ |

Extra compiler allocations
--------------------------

Runtime allocations of programs are as reported above (NoFib section).

The compiler now allocates more than before. Main source of allocation
in this patch compared to base commit is the new SRT algorithm
(GHC.Cmm.Info.Build). Below is some of the extra work we do with this
patch, numbers generated by profiled stage 2 compiler when building a
pathological case (the test 'ManyConstructors') with '-O2':

- We now sort the final STG for a module, which means traversing the
  entire program, generating free variable set for each top-level
  binding, doing SCC analysis, and re-ordering the program. In
  ManyConstructors this step allocates 97,889,952 bytes.

- We now do SRT analysis on static data, which in a program like
  ManyConstructors causes analysing 10,000 bindings that we would
  previously just skip. This step allocates 70,898,352 bytes.

- We now maintain an SRT map for the entire module as we compile Cmm
  groups:

      data ModuleSRTInfo = ModuleSRTInfo
        { ...
        , moduleSRTMap :: SRTMap
        }

   (SRTMap is just a strict Map from the 'containers' library)

   This map gets an entry for most bindings in a module (exceptions are
   THUNKs and CAFFY static functions). For ManyConstructors this map
   gets 50015 entries.

- Once we're done with code generation we generate a NameSet from SRTMap
  for the non-CAFFY names in the current module. This set gets the same
  number of entries as the SRTMap.

- Finally we update CafInfos in ModDetails for the non-CAFFY Ids, using
  the NameSet generated in the previous step. This usually does the
  least amount of allocation among the work listed here.

Only place with this patch where we do less work in the CAF analysis in
the tidying pass (CoreTidy). However that doesn't save us much, as the
pass still needs to traverse the whole program and update IdInfos for
other reasons. Only thing we don't here do is the `hasCafRefs` pass over
the RHS of bindings, which is a stateless pass that returns a boolean
value, so it doesn't allocate much.

(Metric changes blow are all increased allocations)

Fix scoping of TyCon binders in TcTyClsDecls

This patch fixes #17566 by refactoring the way we decide the final
identity of the tyvars in the TyCons of a possibly-recursive nest
of type and class decls, possibly with associated types.

It's all laid out in
  Note [Swizzling the tyvars before generaliseTcTyCon]

Main changes:

* We have to generalise each decl (with its associated types)
  all at once: TcTyClsDecls.generaliseTyClDecl

* The main new work is done in TcTyClsDecls.swizzleTcTyConBndrs

* The mysterious TcHsSyn.zonkRecTyVarBndrs dies altogether

Other smaller things:

* A little refactoring, moving bindTyClTyVars from tcTyClDecl1
  to tcDataDefn, tcSynRhs, etc.  Clearer, reduces the number of
  parameters

* Reduce the amount of swizzling required.
  Specifically, bindExplicitTKBndrs_Q_Tv doesn't need
    to clone a new Name for the TyVarTv, and not
    cloning means that in the vasly common case,
    swizzleTyConBndrs is a no-op

  In detail:
    Rename newTyVarTyVar --> cloneTyVarTyVar
    Add newTyVarTyTyVar that doesn't clone
    Use the non-cloning newTyVarTyVar in
       bindExplicitTKBndrs_Q_Tv
       Rename newFlexiKindedTyVarTyVar
           --> cloneFlexiKindedTyVarTyVar

* Define new utility function and use it
     HsDecls.familyDeclName ::
        FamilyDecl (GhcPass p) -> IdP (GhcPass p)

Improve/fix -fcatch-bottoms documentation

Old documentation suggests that -fcatch-bottoms only adds a default
alternative to bottoming case expression, but that's not true. We use a
very simplistic "is exhaustive" check and add default alternatives to
any case expression that does not cover all constructors of the type. In
case of GADTs this simple check assumes all constructors should be
covered, even the ones ruled out by the type of the scrutinee.

Update the documentation to reflect this.

PmCheck: Record type constraints arising from existentials in `PmCoreCt`s

In #17703 (a follow-up of !2192), we established that contrary to my
belief, type constraints arising from existentials in code like

```hs
data Ex where Ex :: a -> Ex
f _ | let x = Ex @Int 15 = case x of Ex -> ...
```

are in fact useful.

This commit makes a number of refactorings and improvements to comments,
but fundamentally changes `addCoreCt.core_expr` to record the type
constraint `a ~ Int` in addition to `x ~ Ex @a y` and `y ~ 15`.

Fixes #17703.

Reform the free variable finders for types

This patch delivers on (much of) #17509.

* Introduces the shallow vs deep free variable distinction

* Introduce TyCoRep.foldType,
    foldType :: Monoid a => TyCoFolder env a
                         -> env -> Type -> a
  and use it in the free variable finders.

* Substitution in TyCoSubst
   * ASSERTs are on for checkValidSubst
   * checkValidSubst uses shallowTyCoVarsOfTypes etc

Quite a few things still to do

* We could use foldType in lots of other places

* We could use mapType for substitution.  (Check that we get
  good code!)

* Some (but not yet all) clients of substitution can now
  save time by using shallowTyCoVarsOfTypes

* All calls to tyCoVarsOfTypes should be inspected; most of
  them should be shallow.  Maybe.

* Currently shallowTyCoVarsOfTypes still returns
  unification variables, but not CoVarHoles.
  Reason: we need to return unification variables
  in some of the calls in TcSimplify, eg when promoting.

* We should do the same thing for tyCoFVsOfTypes, which is
  currently unchanged.

* tyCoFVsOfTypes returns CoVarHoles, because of the
  use in TcSimplify.mkResidualConstraints.  See
  Note [Emitting the residual implication in simplifyInfer]

* #17509 talks about "relevant" variables too.

slightly better named cost-centres for simple pattern bindings #17006

```
main = do
  print $ g [1..100] a
  where g xs x   = map (`mod` x) xs

The above program previously attributed the cost of computing 324 to a cost
centre named `(...)`, with this change the cost is attributed to `a` instead.

This change only affects simple pattern bindings (decorated variables: type
signatures, parens, ~ annotations and ! annotations).

Introduce IsPass; refactor wrappers.

There are two main payloads of this patch:

1. This introduces IsPass, which allows e.g. printing
   code to ask what pass it is running in (Renamed vs
   Typechecked) and thus print extension fields. See
   Note [IsPass] in Hs.Extension

2. This moves the HsWrap constructor into an extension
   field, where it rightly belongs. This is done for
   HsExpr and HsCmd, but not for HsPat, which is left
   as an exercise for the reader.

There is also some refactoring around SyntaxExprs, but this
is really just incidental.

This patch subsumes !1721 (sorry @chreekat).

Along the way, there is a bit of refactoring in GHC.Hs.Extension,
including the removal of NameOrRdrName in favor of NoGhcTc.
This meant that we had no real need for GHC.Hs.PlaceHolder, so
I got rid of it.

Optimize unpackCString# to allocate less.

unpackCString# is a recursive function which for each iteration
returns a Cons cell containing the current Char, and a thunk for
unpacking the rest of the string.

In this patch we change from storing addr + offset inside this thunk
to storing only the addr, simply incrementing the address on each
iteration.

This saves one word of allocation per unpacked character.
For a program like "main = print "<largishString>" this amounts
to 2-3% fewer % in bytes allocated.

I also removed the now redundant local unpack definitions.
This removes one call per unpack operation.

Fix GhcThreaded setting

This adopts a patch from NetBSD's packaging fixing the `GhcThreaded`
option of the make build system. In addition we introduce a `ghcThreaded`

Also fix Hadrian's treatment of the `Use Threaded` entry in `settings`.
Previously it would incorrectly claim `Use Threaded = True` if we were
building the `threaded` runtime way. However, this is inconsistent with
the `make` build system, which defines it to be whether the `ghc`
executable is linked against the threaded runtime.

base: Drop out-of-date comment

The comment in GHC.Base claimed that ($) couldn't be used in that module
as it was wired-in. However, this is no longer true; ($) is merely known
key and is defined in Haskell (with a RuntimeRep-polymorphic type) in
GHC.Base.

The one piece of magic that ($) retains is that it a special typing
rule to allow type inference with higher-rank types
(e.g. `runST $ blah`; see Note [Typing rule for ($)] in TcExpr).

rts: Fix Arena blocks accounting for MBlock sized allocations

When requesting more than BLOCKS_PER_MBLOCK blocks allocGroup can return a
different number of blocks than requested. Here we use the number of
requested blocks, however arenaFree will subtract the actual number of
blocks we got from arena_blocks (possibly) resulting in a negative value
and triggering ASSERT(arena_blocks >= 0).

hadrian: Windows fixes (bindists, CI)

This commit implements a few Windows-specific fixes which get us from a CI
job that can't even get as far as starting the testsuite driver, to a state
where we can run the entire testssuite (but have test failures to fix).

- Don't forget about a potential extension for the haddock program, when
  preparing the bindist.
- Build the timeout program, used by the testsuite driver on Windows in place
  of the Python script used elsewhere, using the boot compiler. We could
  alternatively build it with the compiler that we're going to test but this
  would be a lot more tedious to write.
- Implement a wrapper-script less installation procedure for Windows, in
  `hadrian/bindist/Makefile.
- Make dependencies a bit more accurate in the aforementioned Makefile.
- Update Windows/Hadrian CI job accordingly.

This patch fixes #17486.

Fix #14628: Panic (No skolem Info) in GHCi

This patch implements the [sugggestion from Simon (PJ)](https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/14628#note_146559):
- Make `TcErrors.getSkolemInfo` return a `SkolemInfo` rather than an `Implication`.
- If `getSkolemInfo` gets `RuntimeUnk`s, just return a new data constructor in `SkolemInfo`, called `RuntimeUnkSkol`.
- In `TcErrors.pprSkols` print something sensible for a `RuntimeUnkSkol`.

The `getSkolemInfo` function paniced while formating suggestions to add type annotations (subfunction `suggestAddSig`)
to a *"Couldn't match type ‘x’ with ‘y’"* error message.
The `getSkolemInfo` function didn't find any Implication value and paniced.
With this patch the `getSkolemInfo` function does no longer panic, if it finds `RuntimeUnkSkol`s.

As the panic occured while processing an error message, we don't need to implement any new error message!

Fix long distance info for record updates

For record updates where the `record_expr` is a variable, as in #17783:

```hs
data PartialRec = No
                | Yes { a :: Int, b :: Bool }
update No = No
update r@(Yes {}) = r { b = False }
```

We should make use of long distance info in
`-Wincomplete-record-updates` checking. But the call to `matchWrapper`
in the `RecUpd` case didn't specify a scrutinee expression, which would
correspond to the `record_expr` `r` here. That is fixed now.

Fixes #17783.

Previously we would assert that threads which are sending a
`MSG_THROWTO` message must have their blocking status be blocked on the
message. In the usual case of a thread throwing to another thread this
is guaranteed by `stg_killThreadzh`.  However, `throwToSelf`, used by
the GC to kill threads which ran out of heap, failed to guarantee this.

Separate CPR analysis from the Demand analyser

The reasons for that can be found in the wiki:
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/wikis/nested-cpr/split-off-cpr

We now run CPR after demand analysis (except for after the final demand
analysis run just before code gen). CPR got its own dump flags
(`-ddump-cpr-anal`, `-ddump-cpr-signatures`), but not its own flag to
activate/deactivate. It will run with `-fstrictness`/`-fworker-wrapper`.

As explained on the wiki page, this step is necessary for a sane Nested
CPR analysis. And it has quite positive impact on compiler performance:

gitlab-ci: Consolidate CI logic

This moves nearly all of the CI logic to .gitlab/ci.sh. This improves
things in a number of ways:

 * it's harder for inconsistencies to arise between architectures
 * it's easier to share logic between architectures
 * on Windows, it's easier to ensure that all CI steps are executed from
   within a properly initialized mingw session.

While in town I also add a FreeBSD build job and update the Windows job
to use the gitlab-runner PowerShell executor, since cmd.exe will be

base: Always clamp reads/writes to 2GB in length

Previously we did this only on Darwin due to #17414. However, even on
other platforms >2GB writes are on shaky ground. POSIX explicitly says
that the result is implementation-specified and Linux will write at most
0x7ffff000, even on 64-bit platforms. Moreover, getting the sign
of the syscall result correct is tricky, as demonstrated by the fact
that T17414 currently fails on FreeBSD.

For simplicity we now just uniformly clamp to 0x7ffff000 on all
platforms.

SysTools: Use "process job" when spawning processes on Windows

GHC should make calls using process jobs when calling out to GCC and LD.
The reason is these use the exec () family of posix functions.  Window's
process model doesn't allow replacement of processes so this is emulated
by creating a new process and immediately exiting the old one.  Because
of this when using normal Windows wait functions you would return even
without the child process having finished.  In this case if you are
depending on data from the child you will enter a race condition.

The usual fix for this is to use process jobs and wait for the
termination of all children that have ever been spawn by the process you
called. But also waiting for the freeing of all resources.

If a :reload finds syntax errors in the module graph, remove the loaded modules. (Fixes #17549)

The processing in `compiler/main/GhcMake.hs` computes the ModuleGraph. If it finds errors
in the module header or in the import specifications, then the new module graph is
incomplete and should not be used.
The code before #17549 just reported the errors and left the old ModuleGraph in place.
The new code of this MR replaces the old ModuleGraph with an empty one.

Hadrian: refactor GMP in-tree build support (#17756)

* Hadrian doesn't use integer-gmp/config.mk file anymore to determine if
  building GMP in-tree is required.

  "config.mk" is created by Cabal when the integer-gmp package is
  configured and this file is still untracked by Hadrian. This led to a
  tricky configure "race" because "config.mk" is built by the
  "setup-config" rule, but this rule is also used to find dependencies,
  in particular the "ghc-gmp.h" header, but the creation of this file
  was depending (without being tracked) on "config.mk".

  Now Hadrian only builds in-tree GMP if `--with-intree-gmp` is passed
  to the top-level configure script.

* in-tree GMP isn't built once for all in a fixed stage (Stage1)
  anymore. It is built per stage which is required if we build a
  cross-compiler

* switching between in-tree and external GMP is now supported without
  having to clean the build directory first.

* "wrappers.c" now includes "ghc-gmp.h" instead of "ghc.h". It
  helps ensuring that the build system generates "ghc-gmp.h".

* build in-tree GMP in "<root>/stageN/gmp/gmpbuild" and produce useful
  artefacts (libgmp.a, gmp.h, objs/*.o) in "<root>/stageN/gmp"

Remove the MonadFail P instance

There were two issues with this instance:

* its existence meant that a pattern match failure in the P monad would
  produce a user-visible parse error, but the error message would not be
  helpful to the user

* due to the MFP migration strategy, we had to use CPP in Lexer.x,
  and that created issues for #17750

Updates haddock submodule.

Re-implement unsafe coercions in terms of unsafe equality proofs

(Commit message written by Omer, most of the code is written by Simon
and Richard)

See Note [Implementing unsafeCoerce] for how unsafe equality proofs and
the new unsafeCoerce# are implemented.

New notes added:

- [Checking for levity polymorphism] in CoreLint.hs
- [Implementing unsafeCoerce] in base/Unsafe/Coerce.hs
- [Patching magic definitions] in Desugar.hs
- [Wiring in unsafeCoerce#] in Desugar.hs

Only breaking change in this patch is unsafeCoerce# is not exported from
GHC.Exts, instead of GHC.Prim.

Fixes #17443
Fixes #16893

Test changes

- break006 is marked as broken, see #17833
- The compiler allocates less when building T14683 (an unsafeCoerce#-
  heavy happy-generated code) on 64-platforms. Allocates more on 32-bit
  platforms.
- Rest of the increases are tiny amounts (still enough to pass the
  threshold) in micro-benchmarks. I briefly looked at each one in a
  profiling build: most of the increased allocations seem to be because
  of random changes in the generated code.

Parser API annotations: RealSrcLoc

During parsing, GHC collects lexical information about AST nodes and
stores it in a map. It is needed to faithfully restore original source
code, e.g. compare these expressions:

	a =  b
	a  = b

The position of the equality sign is not recorded in the AST, so it must
be stored elsewhere.

This system is described in Note [Api annotations].

Before this patch, the mapping was represented by:

	Map (SrcSpan, AnnKeywordId) SrcSpan

After this patch, the mapping is represented by:

	Map (RealSrcSpan, AnnKeywordId) RealSrcSpan

The motivation behind this change is to avoid using the Ord SrcSpan
instance (required by Map here), as it interferes with #17632 (see the
discussion there).

SrcSpan is isomorphic to  Either String RealSrcSpan,  but we shouldn't
use those strings as Map keys. Those strings are intended as hints to
the user, e.g. "<interactive>" or "<compiler-generated code>", so they
are not a valid way to identify nodes in the source code.

Remove Ord SrcLoc, Ord SrcSpan

Before this patch, GHC relied on Ord SrcSpan to identify source elements, by
using SrcSpan as Map keys:

	blackList :: Map SrcSpan ()      -- compiler/GHC/HsToCore/Coverage.hs
	instanceMap :: Map SrcSpan Name  -- compiler/GHC/HsToCore/Docs.hs

Firstly, this design is not valid in presence of UnhelpfulSpan, as it
distinguishes between  UnhelpfulSpan "X"  and  UnhelpfulSpan "Y", but those
strings are messages for the user, unfit to serve as identifiers for source
elements.

Secondly, this design made it hard to extend SrcSpan with additional data.
Recall that the definition of SrcSpan is:

	data SrcSpan =
	    RealSrcSpan !RealSrcSpan
	  | UnhelpfulSpan !FastString

Say we want to extend the RealSrcSpan constructor with additional information:

	data SrcSpan =
	    RealSrcSpan !RealSrcSpan !AdditionalInformation
	  | UnhelpfulSpan !FastString

	getAdditionalInformation :: SrcSpan -> AdditionalInformation
	getAdditionalInformation (RealSrcSpan _ a) = a

Now, in order for  Map SrcSpan  to keep working correctly, we must *ignore* additional
information when comparing SrcSpan values:

	instance Ord SrcSpan where
	  compare (RealSrcSpan r1 _) (RealSrcSpan r2 _) = compare r1 r2
	  ...

However, this would violate an important law:

	a == b  therefore  f a == f b

Ignoring  AdditionalInformation  in comparisons would mean that with
f=getAdditionalInformation, the law above does not hold.

A more robust design is to avoid  Ord SrcSpan  altogether, which is what this patch implements.
The mappings are changed to use RealSrcSpan instead:

	blackList :: Set RealSrcSpan         -- compiler/GHC/HsToCore/Coverage.hs
	instanceMap :: Map RealSrcSpan Name  -- compiler/GHC/HsToCore/Docs.hs

All SrcSpan comparisons are now done with explicit comparison strategies:

	SrcLoc.leftmost_smallest
	SrcLoc.leftmost_largest
	SrcLoc.rightmost_smallest

These strategies are not subject to the law mentioned above and can easily
discard both the string stored in  UnhelpfulSpan  and  AdditionalInformation.

Updates haddock submodule.

PmCheck: Implement Long-distance information with Covered sets

Consider

```hs
data T = A | B | C

f :: T -> Int
f A = 1
f x = case x of
  A -> 2
  B -> 3
  C -> 4
```

Clearly, the RHS returning 2 is redundant. But we don't currently see
that, because our approximation to the covered set of the inner case
expression just picks up the positive information from surrounding
pattern matches. It lacks the context sensivity that `x` can't be `A`
anymore!

Therefore, we adopt the conceptually and practically superior approach
of reusing the covered set of a particular GRHS from an outer pattern
match. In this case, we begin checking the `case` expression with the
covered set of `f`s second clause, which encodes the information that
`x` can't be `A` anymore. After this MR, we will successfully warn about
the RHS returning 2 being redundant.

Perhaps surprisingly, this was a great simplification to the code of
both the coverage checker and the desugarer.

Found a redundant case alternative in `unix` submodule, so we have to
bump it with a fix.

Monotonic locations (#17632)

When GHC is parsing a file generated by a tool, e.g. by the C preprocessor, the
tool may insert #line pragmas to adjust the locations reported to the user.

As the result, the locations recorded in RealSrcLoc are not monotonic. Elements
that appear later in the StringBuffer are not guaranteed to have a higher
line/column number.

In fact, there are no guarantees whatsoever, as #line pragmas can arbitrarily
modify locations. This lack of guarantees makes ideas such as #17544
infeasible.

This patch adds an additional bit of information to every SrcLoc:

	newtype BufPos = BufPos { bufPos :: Int }

A BufPos represents the location in the StringBuffer, unaffected by any
pragmas.

plugins: Ensure that loadInterface plugins can see annotations

loadInterface replaces the `mi_decls`, `mi_insts`, `mi_fam_insts`,
`mi_rules`, `mi_anns` fields of ModIface with `undefined` before
inserting the interface into the EPS. However, we still want to give
loadInterface plugins access to these fields. Consequently, we want to
pass the unmodified `ModIface` the plugin.

Refactor runtime interpreter code

In #14335 we want to be able to use both the internal interpreter (for
the plugins) and the external interpreter (for TH and GHCi) at the same
time.

This patch performs some preliminary refactoring: the `hsc_interp` field
of HscEnv replaces `hsc_iserv` and is now used to indicate which
interpreter (internal, external) to use to execute TH and GHCi.

Opt_ExternalInterpreter flag and iserv options in DynFlags are now
queried only when we set the session DynFlags. It should help making GHC
multi-target in the future by selecting an interpreter according to the
selected target.

Simplify IfaceIdInfo type

IfaceIdInfo type is confusing: there's practically no difference between
`NoInfo` and `HasInfo []`. The comments say NoInfo is used when
-fomit-interface-pragmas is enabled, but we don't need to distinguish
`NoInfo` from `HasInfo []` in when reading the interface so the
distinction is not important.

This patch simplifies the type by removing NoInfo. When we have no info
we use an empty list.

With this change we no longer read the info list lazily when reading an
IfaceInfoItem, but when reading an IfaceId the ifIdInfo field is
read lazily, so I doubt this is going to be a problem.

Show breakpoint locations of breakpoints which were ignored during :force (#2950)

GHCi is split up into 2 major parts: The user-interface (UI)
and the byte-code interpreter. With `-fexternal-interpreter`
they even run in different processes. Communication between
the UI and the Interpreter (called `iserv`) is done using
messages over a pipe. This is called `Remote GHCI` and
explained in the Note [Remote GHCi] in `compiler/ghci/GHCi.hs`.

To process a `:force` command the UI sends a `Seq` message
to the `iserv` process. Then `iserv` does the effective
evaluation of the value. When during this process a breakpoint
is hit, the `iserv` process has no additional information to
enhance the `Ignoring breakpoint` output with the breakpoint
location.

To be able to print additional breakpoint information,
there are 2 possible implementation choices:
1. Store the needed information in the `iserv` process.
2. Print the `Ignoring breakpoint` from the UI process.

For option 1 we need to store the breakpoint info redundantely
in 2 places and this is bad. Therfore option 2 was implemented
in this MR:
- The user enters a `force` command
- The UI sends  a `Seq` message to the `iserv` process.
- If processing of the `Seq` message hits a breakpoint,
  the `iserv` process returns control to the UI process.
- The UI looks up the source location of the breakpoint,
  and prints the enhanced `Ignoring breakpoint` output.
- The UI sends a `ResumeSeq` message to the `iserv` process,
  to continue forcing.

Set `ImpredicativeTypes` during :print command. (#14828)

If ImpredicativeTypes is not enabled, then `:print <term>` will fail if the
type of <term> has nested `forall`s or `=>`s.
This is because the GHCi debugger's internals will attempt to unify a
metavariable with the type of <term> and then display the result, but if the
type has nested `forall`s or `=>`s, then unification will fail.
As a result, `:print` will bail out and the unhelpful result will be
`<term> = (_t1::t1)` (where `t1` is a metavariable).

Beware: <term> can have nested `forall`s even if its definition doesn't use
RankNTypes! Here is an example from #14828:

  class Functor f where
    fmap :: (a -> b) -> f a -> f b

Somewhat surprisingly, `:print fmap` considers the type of fmap to have
nested foralls. This is because the GHCi debugger sees the type
`fmap :: forall f. Functor f => forall a b. (a -> b) -> f a -> f b`.
We could envision deeply instantiating this type to get the type
`forall f a b. Functor f => (a -> b) -> f a -> f b`,
but this trick wouldn't work for higher-rank types.

Instead, we adopt a simpler fix: enable `ImpredicativeTypes` when using
`:print` and friends in the GHCi debugger. This is allows metavariables
to unify with types that have nested (or higher-rank) `forall`s/`=>`s,
which makes `:print fmap` display as
`fmap = (_t1::forall a b. Functor f => (a -> b) -> f a -> f b)`, as expected.

Although ImpredicativeTypes is a somewhat unpredictable from a type inference
perspective, there is no danger in using it in the GHCi debugger, since all
of the terms that the GHCi debugger deals with have already been typechecked.

Clarify a Lint message

When developing a plugin I had a shadowing problem, where I generated
code
  app = \f{v r7B} x{v r7B} -> f{v r7B} x{v r7B}
This is obviously wrong, since the occurrence of `f` to the right of the
arrow refers to the `x` binder (they share a Unique). However, it is
rather confusing when Lint reports
  Mismatch in type between binder and occurrence
  Var: x{v rB7}
since it is printing the binder, rather than the occurrence.
It is rather easy to read this as claiming there is something wrong with
the `x` occurrence!

We change the report to explicitly print both the binder and the
occurrence variables.

Re-quantify when generalising over rewrite rule types

Previously, `tcRules` would check for naughty quantification
candidates (see `Note [Naughty quantification candidates]` in
`TcMType`) when generalising over the type of a rewrite rule. This
caused sensible-looking rewrite rules (like those in #17710) to be
rejected. A more permissing (and easier-to-implement) approach is to
do what is described in `Note [Generalising in tcTyFamInstEqnGuts]`
in `TcTyClsDecls`: just re-quantify all the type variable binders,
regardless of the order in which the user specified them. After all,
the notion of type variable specificity has no real meaning in
rewrite rules, since one cannot "visibly apply" a rewrite rule.
I have written up this wisdom in
`Note [Re-quantify type variables in rules]` in `TcRules`.

As a result of this patch, compiling the `ExplicitForAllRules1` test
case now generates one fewer warning than it used to. As far as I can
tell, this is benign, since the thing that the disappearing warning
talked about was also mentioned in an entirely separate warning.

Fixes #17710.

Zero any slop after compaction in compacting GC

In copying GC, with the relevant debug flags enabled, we release the old
blocks after a GC, and the block allocator zeroes the space before
releasing a block. This effectively zeros the old heap.

In compacting GC we reuse the blocks and previously we didn't zero the
unused space in a compacting generation after compaction. With this
patch we zero the slop between the free pointer and the end of the block
when we're done with compaction and when switching to a new block
(because the current block doesn't have enough space for the next object
we're shifting).

Make DeriveFunctor-generated code require fewer beta reductions

Issue #17880 demonstrates that `DeriveFunctor`-generated code is
surprisingly fragile when rank-_n_ types are involved. The culprit is
that `$fmap` (the algorithm used to generate `fmap` implementations)
was too keen on applying arguments with rank-_n_ types to lambdas,
which fail to typecheck more often than not.

In this patch, I change `$fmap` (both the specification and the
implementation) to produce code that avoids creating as many lambdas,
avoiding problems when rank-_n_ field types arise.
See the comments titled "Functor instances" in `TcGenFunctor` for a
more detailed description. Not only does this fix #17880, but it also
ensures that the code that `DeriveFunctor` generates will continue
to work after simplified subsumption is implemented (see #17775).

What is truly amazing is that #17880 is actually a regression
(introduced in GHC 7.6.3) caused by commit
49ca2a37bef18aa57235ff1dbbf1cc0434979b1e, the fix #7436. Prior to
that commit, the version of `$fmap` that was used was almost
identical to the one used in this patch! Why did that commit change
`$fmap` then? It was to avoid severe performance issues that would
arise for recursive `fmap` implementations, such as in the example
below:

```hs
data List a = Nil | Cons a (List a) deriving Functor

-- ===>

instance Functor List where
  fmap f Nil = Nil
  fmap f (Cons x xs) = Cons (f x) (fmap (\y -> f y) xs)
```

The fact that `\y -> f y` was eta expanded caused significant
performance overheads. Commit
49ca2a37bef18aa57235ff1dbbf1cc0434979b1e fixed this performance
issue, but it went too far. As a result, this patch partially
reverts 49ca2a37bef18aa57235ff1dbbf1cc0434979b1e.

To ensure that the performance issues pre-#7436 do not resurface,
I have taken some precautionary measures:

* I have added a special case to `$fmap` for situations where the
  last type variable in an application of some type occurs directly.
  If this special case fires, we avoid creating a lambda expression.
  This ensures that we generate
  `fmap f (Cons x xs) = Cons (f x) (fmap f xs)` in the derived
  `Functor List` instance above. For more details, see
  `Note [Avoid unnecessary eta expansion in derived fmap implementations]`
  in `TcGenFunctor`.
* I have added a `T7436b` test case to ensure that the performance
  of this derived `Functor List`-style code does not regress.

When implementing this, I discovered that `$replace`, the algorithm
which generates implementations of `(<$)`, has a special case that is
very similar to the `$fmap` special case described above. `$replace`
marked this special case with a custom `Replacer` data type, which
was a bit overkill. In order to use the same machinery for both
`Functor` methods, I ripped out `Replacer` and instead implemented
a simple way to detect the special case. See the updated commentary
in `Note [Deriving <$]` for more details.

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
```

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.

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).

Fix Lint

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.

Allow overriding LD_STAGE0 and AR_STAGE0 in the configure script.

Previously it was possible to override the stage0 C compiler via `CC_STAGE0`,
but you couldn't override `ld` or `ar` in stage0.  This change allows overriding them
by setting `LD_STAGE0` or `AR_STAGE0`, respectively.

Our team uses this feature internally to take more control of our GHC build
and make it run more hermetically.

nonmoving: Don't traverse filled segment list in pause

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.

Wrap an implication around class-sig kind errors

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.

Refactor CmmToAsm (disentangle DynFlags)

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.

Add a -no-haddock flag.

This flag undoes the effect of a previous "-haddock" flag.  Having both flags makes it easier
for build systems to enable Haddock parsing in a set of global flags, but then disable it locally for
specific targets (e.g., third-party packages whose comments don't pass the validation in the latest GHC).

I added the flag to expected-undocumented-flags.txt since `-haddock` was alreadyin that list.

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.

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.

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)

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)

PmCheck: Use ConLikeSet to model negative info

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.

FastString: fix eager reading of string ptr in hashStr

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.

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.

Fix ApplicativeDo regression #17835

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.

Use export list of Main module in function TcRnDriver.hs:check_main (Fix #16453)

- Provide the export list of the `Main` module as parameter to the
  `compiler/typecheck/TcRnDriver.hs:check_main` function.
- Instead of `lookupOccRn_maybe` call the function `lookupInfoOccRn`.
  It returns the list `mains_all` of all the main functions in scope.
- Select from this list `mains_all` all `main` functions that are in
  the export list of the `Main` module.
- If this new list contains exactly one single `main` function, then
  typechecking continues.
- Otherwise issue an appropriate error message.

   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.

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.

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.

Run checkNewDataCon before constraint-solving newtype constructors

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.

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.

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

Make Hadrian build with Cabal-3.2

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.

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
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/17305#note_227087).

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 at 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!

Don't override proc CafInfos in ticky builds

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].

Fix an tricky specialiser loop

Issue #17151 was a very tricky example of a bug in which the
specialiser accidentally constructs a recurive dictionary,
so that everything turns into bottom.

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,
though it did lead me a bit of refactoring in specImports.

rts: ProfHeap: Fix memory leak when not compiled with profiling

If we're doing heap profiling on an unprofiled executable we keep
allocating new space in initEra via nextEra on each profiler run but we
don't have a corresponding freeEra call.

We do free the last era in endHeapProfiling but previous eras will have
been overwritten by initEra and will never get free()ed.

simplifier: Kill off ufKeenessFactor

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
thresh
50         -6.36%   -7.04%   -4.82%   -6.46%
60         -5.04%   -5.97%   -3.83%   -5.11%
70         -2.90%   -3.84%   -2.31%   -2.92%
80         -0.75%   -2.16%   -0.42%   -0.73%
90         +0.24%   -0.41%   +0.55%   +0.26%
100        +1.36%   +0.80%   +1.64%   +1.37%
baseline   +0.00%   +0.00%   +0.00%   +0.00%

Likewise, looking at runtime allocations we see that 80 gives slightly
better optimisation than the baseline:

            gmean      min      max   median
thresh
50         +0.16%   -0.16%   +4.43%   +0.00%
60         +0.09%   -0.00%   +3.10%   +0.00%
70         +0.04%   -0.09%   +2.29%   +0.00%
80         +0.02%   -1.17%   +2.29%   +0.00%
90         -0.02%   -2.59%   +1.86%   +0.00%
100        +0.00%   -2.59%   +7.51%   -0.00%
baseline   +0.00%   +0.00%   +0.00%   +0.00%

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.

             Wall clock time compiling Cabal with -O0
thresh       50     60     70     80     90      100    baseline

Also, this change happens to avoid the spurious test output in
`plugin-recomp-change` and `plugin-recomp-change-prof` (see #17308).

Make NoExtCon fields strict

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.

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.

Special case `isConstraintKindCon` on `AlgTyCon`

Previously, the `tyConUnique` record selector would unfold into a huge
case expression that would be inlined in all call sites, such as the
`INLINE`-annotated `coreView`, see #18026. `constraintKindTyConKey` only
occurs as the `Unique` of an `AlgTyCon` anyway, so we can make the code

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:

   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.

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.

rts: Fix nomenclature in OVERWRITING_CLOSURE macros

The additional commentary introduced by commit 8916e64e5437 ("Implement
shrinkSmallMutableArray# and resizeSmallMutableArray#.") unfortunately got
this wrong. We set 'prim' to true in overwritingClosureOfs because we
_don't_ want to call LDV_recordDead().

The reason is because of this "inherently used" distinction made in the LDV
profiler so I rename the variable to be more appropriate.

Bump template-haskell version to 2.17.0.0

This requires bumping the `exceptions` and `text` submodules to bring

Note that the new `text` commit includes a fair number of additions
to the Haddocks in that library. As a result, Haddock has to do more
work during the `haddock.Cabal` test case, increasing the number of
allocations it requires. Therefore,

rts: ProfHeap: Fix wrong time in last heap profile sample

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.

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.

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).

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.

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

llvmGen: Remove -fast-llvm flag

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.

Trees That Grow refactor for `ConPat` and `CoPat`

- `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

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.

hadrian: always capture both stdout and stderr when running a builder fails

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`.

Make boxed 1-tuples have known keys

Unlike other tuples, which use special syntax and are "known" by way
of a special `isBuiltInOcc_maybe` code path, boxed 1-tuples do not
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
`Note [One-tuples] (Wrinkle: Make boxed one-tuple names have known keys)`
in `GHC.Builtin.Types`.

The name InstalledPackageInfo is only kept for alleged backward
compatibility reason in Cabal. ghc-boot has its own stripped down copy
of this datatype but it doesn't need to keep the name. Internally we
already use type aliases (UnitInfo in GHC, PackageCacheFormat in
ghc-pkg).

* Rename UnitInfo fields: add "unit" prefix and fix misleading names

* Add comments on every UnitInfo field

* Rename SourcePackageId into PackageId

package components are called units.

Converting between UnitInfo stored in package databases and UnitInfo as

It was difficult to understand and even more to modify (I wanted to
try to use a GADT for UnitId but fun deps got in the way).

The new code uses much more straightforward functions to convert between
the different representations. Much simpler.

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.

Refactor PprDebug handling

If `-dppr-debug` is set, then PprUser and PprDump styles are silently
replaced with PprDebug style. This was done in `mkUserStyle` and
`mkDumpStyle` smart constructors. As a consequence they needed a
DynFlags parameter.

Now we keep the original PprUser and PprDump styles until they are used
to create an `SDocContext`. I.e. the substitution is only performed in
`initSDocContext`.

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.

Flatten nested casts in the simple optimizer

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.

Don't return a panic in tcNestedSplice

In GHC.Tc.Gen.Splice.tcNestedSplice we were returning a
typechecked expression of "panic". That is usually OK, because
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.

Add regression tests for #16244, #16245, #16758

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.

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:

Block flags are very useful for determining the state of a block.

nonmoving: Fix incorrect failed_to_evac value during deadlock gc

things as dirty than strictly necessary. It also turned up a nasty but
which I will fix next.

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.

Allow atomic update of NameCache in readHieFile

The situation arises in ghcide where multiple different threads may need to
update the name cache, therefore with the older interface it could happen
that you start reading a hie file with name cache A and produce name cache
A + B, but another thread in the meantime updated the namecache to A +
C. Therefore if you write the new namecache you will lose the A' updates
from the second thread.

Refactoring: Use bindSigTyVarsFV in rnMethodBinds

`rnMethodBinds` was explicitly using `xoptM` to determine if
`ScopedTypeVariables` is enabled before bringing type variables
bound by the class/instance header into scope. However, this `xoptM`
logic is already performed by the `bindSigTyVarsFV` function. This
patch uses `bindSigTyVarsFV` in `rnMethodBinds` to reduce the number
of places where we need to consult if `ScopedTypeVariables` is on.

This is purely refactoring, and there should be no user-visible
change in behavior.

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 at 23c0b8a50d7592af37ca09beeec16b93080df98f,
which adds `dist-boot` to the `.gitignore` file.

   4,693,328,008 bytes copied during GC
      33,941,448 bytes maximum residency (276 sample(s))
         375,976 bytes maximum slop
              83 MiB total memory in use (0 MB lost due to fragmentation)

After:

   2,858,897,344 bytes allocated in the heap
   4,629,255,440 bytes copied during GC
      32,616,624 bytes maximum residency (278 sample(s))
         314,400 bytes maximum slop

CprAnal: Don't attach CPR sigs to expandable bindings (#18154)

Instead, look through expandable unfoldings in `cprTransform`.
See the new Note [CPR for expandable unfoldings]:

```
Long static data structures (whether top-level or not) like

  xs = x1 : xs1
  xs1 = x2 : xs2
  xs2 = x3 : xs3

should not get CPR signatures, because they

  * Never get WW'd, so their CPR signature should be irrelevant after analysis
    (in fact the signature might even be harmful for that reason)
  * Would need to be inlined/expanded to see their constructed product
  * Recording CPR on them blows up interface file sizes and is redundant with
    their unfolding. In case of Nested CPR, this blow-up can be quadratic!

But we can't just stop giving DataCon application bindings the CPR property,
for example

  fac 0 = 1
  fac n = n * fac (n-1)

fac certainly has the CPR property and should be WW'd! But FloatOut will
transform the first clause to

  lvl = 1
  fac 0 = lvl

If lvl doesn't have the CPR property, fac won't either. But lvl doesn't have a
CPR signature to extrapolate into a CPR transformer ('cprTransform'). So
instead we keep on cprAnal'ing through *expandable* unfoldings for these arity
0 bindings via 'cprExpandUnfolding_maybe'.

In practice, GHC generates a lot of (nested) TyCon and KindRep bindings, one
for each data declaration. It's wasteful to attach CPR signatures to each of
them (and intractable in case of Nested CPR).

Factor out HsPatSigType for pat sigs/RULE term sigs (#16762)

This implements chunks (2) and (3) of
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/16762#note_270170. Namely,
it introduces a dedicated `HsPatSigType` AST type, which represents
the types that can appear in pattern signatures and term-level `RULE`
binders. Previously, these were represented with `LHsSigWcType`.
Although `LHsSigWcType` is isomorphic to `HsPatSigType`, the intended
semantics of the two types are slightly different, as evidenced by
the fact that they have different code paths in the renamer and
typechecker.

See also the new `Note [Pattern signature binders and scoping]` in
`GHC.Hs.Types`.

DmdAnal: Improve handling of precise exceptions

This patch does two things: Fix possible unsoundness in what was called
the "IO hack" and implement part 2.1 of the "fixing precise exceptions"
plan in
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/wikis/fixing-precise-exceptions,
which, in combination with !2956, supersedes !3014 and !2525.

**IO hack**

The "IO hack" (which is a fallback to preserve precise exceptions
semantics and thus soundness, rather than some smart thing that
increases precision) is called `exprMayThrowPreciseException` now.
I came up with two testcases exemplifying possible unsoundness (if
twisted enough) in the old approach:

- `T13380d`: Demonstrating unsoundness of the "IO hack" when resorting
             to manual state token threading and direct use of primops.
             More details below.
- `T13380e`: Demonstrating unsoundness of the "IO hack" when we have
             Nested CPR. Not currently relevant, as we don't have Nested
             CPR yet.
- `T13380f`: Demonstrating unsoundness of the "IO hack" for safe FFI
             calls.

Basically, the IO hack assumed that precise exceptions can only be
thrown from a case scrutinee of type `(# State# RealWorld, _ #)`. I
couldn't come up with a program using the `IO` abstraction that violates
this assumption. But it's easy to do so via manual state token threading
and direct use of primops, see `T13380d`. Also similar code might be
generated by Nested CPR in the (hopefully not too) distant future, see
`T13380e`. Hence, we now have a more careful test in `forcesRealWorld`
that passes `T13380{d,e}` (and will hopefully be robust to Nested CPR).

**Precise exceptions**

In #13380 and #17676 we saw that we didn't preserve precise exception
semantics in demand analysis. We fixed that with minimal changes in
!2956, but that was terribly unprincipled.

That unprincipledness resulted in a loss of precision, which is tracked
by these new test cases:

- `T13380b`: Regression in dead code elimination, because !2956 was too
             syntactic about `raiseIO#`
- `T13380c`: No need to apply the "IO hack" when the IO action may not
             throw a precise exception (and the existing IO hack doesn't
             detect that)

Fixing both issues in !3014 turned out to be too complicated and had
the potential to regress in the future. Hence we decided to only fix
`T13380b` and augment the `Divergence` lattice with a new middle-layer
element, `ExnOrDiv`, which means either `Diverges` (, throws an
imprecise exception) or throws a *precise* exception.

See the wiki page on Step 2.1 for more implementational details:

one in `GHC.Core.TyCo.Ppr`. The latter is less up-to-date, as it was

Explicit Specificity

Implementation for Ticket #16393.
Explicit specificity allows users to manually create inferred type variables,
by marking them with braces.
This way, the user determines which variables can be instantiated through
visible type application.

The additional syntax is included in the parser, allowing users to write
braces in type variable binders (type signatures, data constructors etc).
This information is passed along through the renamer and verified in the
type checker.
The AST for type variable binders, data constructors, pattern synonyms,
partial signatures and Template Haskell has been updated to include the
specificity of type variables.

Minor notes:
- Bumps haddock submodule
- Disables pattern match checking in GHC.Iface.Type with GHC 8.8

Lint should say when it is checking a rule

It is rather confusing that when lint finds an error in a rule attached
to a binder, it reports the error as in the RHS, not the rule:
  ...
  In the RHS of foo

We add a clarifying line:
  ...
  In the RHS of foo
  In a rule attached to foo

The implication that the rule lives inside the RHS is a bit odd, but
this niggle is already present for unfoldings, whose pattern we are
following.

Refactor linear reg alloc to remember past assignments.

When assigning registers we now first try registers we
assigned to in the past, instead of picking the "first"
one.

This is in extremely helpful when dealing with loops for
which variables are dead for part of the loop.

This is important for patterns like this:

        foo = arg1
    loop:
        use(foo)
        ...
        foo = getVal()
        goto loop;

There we:
* assign foo to the register of arg1.
* use foo, it's dead after this use as it's overwritten after.
* do other things.
* look for a register to put foo in.

If we pick an arbitrary one it might differ from the register the
start of the loop expect's foo to be in.
To fix this we simply look for past register assignments for
the given variable. If we find one and the register is free we
use that register.

This reduces the need for fixup blocks which match the register
assignment between blocks. In the example above between the end
and the head of the loop.

This patch also moves branch weight estimation ahead of register
allocation and adds a flag to control it (cmm-static-pred).
* It means the linear allocator is more likely to assign the hotter
  code paths first.
* If it assign these first we are:
  + Less likely to spill on the hot path.
  + Less likely to introduce fixup blocks on the hot path.

These two measure combined are surprisingly effective. Based on nofib
we get in the mean:

* -0.9% instructions executed
* -0.1% reads/writes
* -0.2% code size.
* -0.1% compiler allocations.
* -0.9% compile time.
* -0.8% runtime.

Most of the benefits are simply a result of removing redundant moves
and spills.

Reduced compiler allocations likely are the result of less code being
generated. (The added lookup is mostly non-allocating).

NCG: Codelayout: Distinguish conditional and other branches.

In #18053 we ended up with a suboptimal code layout because
the code layout algorithm didn't distinguish between conditional
and unconditional control flow.

We can completely eliminate unconditional control flow instructions
by placing blocks next to each other, not so much for conditionals.

In terms of implementation we simply give conditional branches less
weight before computing the layout.

Don't variable-length encode magic iface constant.

We changed to use variable length encodings for many types by default,

Implement cstringLength# and FinalPtr

This function and its accompanying rule resolve issue #5218.
A future PR to the bytestring library will make the internal
Data.ByteString.Internal.unsafePackAddress compute string length
with cstringLength#. This will improve the status quo because it is
eligible for constant folding.

Additionally, introduce a new data constructor to ForeignPtrContents
named FinalPtr. This additional data constructor, when used in the
IsString instance for ByteString, leads to more Core-to-Core
optimization opportunities, fewer runtime allocations, and smaller
binaries.

Also, this commit re-exports all the functions from GHC.CString
(including cstringLength#) in GHC.Exts. It also adds a new test
driver. This test driver is used to perform substring matches on Core
that is dumped after all the simplifier passes. In this commit, it is
used to check that constant folding of cstringLength# works.

Add orderingTyCon to wiredInTyCons (#18185)

`Ordering` needs to be wired in for use in the built-in `CmpNat` and
`CmpSymbol` type families, but somehow it was never added to the list
of `wiredInTyCons`, leading to the various oddities observed
in #18185. Easily fixed by moving `orderingTyCon` from
`basicKnownKeyNames` to `wiredInTyCons`.

Fixes #18185.

Add info about typeclass evidence to .hie files

See `testsuite/tests/hiefile/should_run/HieQueries.hs` and
`testsuite/tests/hiefile/should_run/HieQueries.stdout` for an example of this

We add two new fields, `EvidenceVarBind` and `EvidenceVarUse` to the
`ContextInfo` associated with an Identifier. These are associated with the
appropriate identifiers for the evidence variables collected when we come across
`HsWrappers`, `TcEvBinds` and `IPBinds` while traversing the AST.

Instance dictionary and superclass selector dictionaries from `tcg_insts` and
classes defined in `tcg_tcs` are also recorded in the AST as originating from
their definition span

This allows us to save a complete picture of the evidence constructed by the
constraint solver, and will let us report this to the user, enabling features
like going to the instance definition from the invocation of a class method(or
any other method taking a constraint) and finding all usages of a particular
instance.

Additionally,

- Mark NodeInfo with an origin so we can differentiate between bindings
  origininating in the source vs those in ghc
- Along with typeclass evidence info, also include information on Implicit
  Parameters
- Add a few utility functions to HieUtils in order to query the new info

We avoid this by ensuring that the dump flag check is inlined into the

unless it's actually needed.

DmdAnal: Recognise precise exceptions from case alternatives (#18086)

Consider

```hs
m :: IO ()
m = do
  putStrLn "foo"
  error "bar"
```

`m` (from #18086) always throws a (precise or imprecise) exception or
diverges. Yet demand analysis infers `<L,A>` as demand signature instead
of `<L,A>x` for it.

That's because the demand analyser sees `putStrLn` occuring in a case
scrutinee and decides that it has to `deferAfterPreciseException`,
because `putStrLn` throws a precise exception on some control flow
paths. This will mask the `botDiv` `Divergence`of the single case alt
containing `error` to `topDiv`. Since `putStrLn` has `topDiv` itself,
the final `Divergence` is `topDiv`.

This is easily fixed: `deferAfterPreciseException` works by `lub`ing
with the demand type of a virtual case branch denoting the precise
exceptional control flow. We used `nopDmdType` before, but we can be
more precise and use `exnDmdType`, which is `nopDmdType` with `exnDiv`.

Now the `Divergence` from the case alt will degrade `botDiv` to `exnDiv`
instead of `topDiv`, which combines with the result from the scrutinee
to `exnDiv`, and all is well.

Fixes #18086.

Fix "build/elem" RULE.

An redundant constraint prevented the rule from matching.

Fixing this allows a call to elem on a known list to be translated
into a series of equality checks, and eventually a simple case
expression.

Surprisingly this seems to regress elem for strings. To avoid
this we now also allow foldrCString to inline and add an UTF8
variant. This results in elem being compiled to a tight
non-allocating loop over the primitive string literal which
performs a linear search.

In the process this commit adds UTF8 variants for some of the
functions in GHC.CString. This is required to make this work for
both ASCII and UTF8 strings.

There are also small tweaks to the CString related rules.
We now allow ourselfes the luxury to compare the folding function
via eqExpr, which helps to ensure the rule fires before we inline
foldrCString*. Together with a few changes to allow matching on both
the UTF8 and ASCII variants of the CString functions.

Allow simplification through runRW#

Because runRW# inlines so late, we were previously able to do very
little simplification across it. For instance, given even a simple
program like

    case runRW# (\s -> let n = I# 42# in n) of
      I# n# -> f n#

we previously had no way to avoid the allocation of the I#.

This patch allows the simplifier to push strict contexts into the
continuation of a runRW# application, as explained in
in Note [Simplification of runRW#] in GHC.CoreToStg.Prep.

Optimize GHC.Utils.Monad.

Many functions in this module are recursive and as such are marked
loop breakers. Which means they are unlikely to get an unfolding.

This is *bad*. We always want to specialize them to specific Monads.
Which requires a visible unfolding at the use site.

I rewrote the recursive ones from:

    foo f x = ... foo x' ...

to

    foo f x = go x
      where
        go x = ...

As well as giving some pragmas to make all of them available
for specialization.

The end result is a reduction of allocations of about -1.4% for
nofib/spectral/simple/Main.hs when compiled with `-O`.

Cleanup OVERWRITING_CLOSURE logic

The code is just more confusing than it needs to be. We don't need to mix
the threaded check with the ldv profiling check since ldv's init already
checks for this. Hence they can be two separate checks. Taking the sanity
checking into account is also cleaner via DebugFlags.sanity. No need for
checking the DEBUG define.

The ZERO_SLOP_FOR_LDV_PROF and ZERO_SLOP_FOR_SANITY_CHECK definitions the
old code had also make things a lot more opaque IMO so I removed those.

Always zero shrunk mutable array slop when profiling

When shrinking arrays in the profiling way we currently don't always zero
the leftover slop. This means we can't traverse such closures in the heap
profiler. The old Note [zeroing slop] and #8402 have some rationale for why
this is so but I belive the reasoning doesn't apply to mutable
closures. There users already have to ensure multiple threads don't step on
each other's toes so zeroing should be safe.

Modify file paths to module paths for new module hierarchy

This updates comments only.

This patch replaces module references according to new module
hierarchy [1][2].

For files under the `compiler/` directory, I replace them as
module paths instead of file paths. For instance,
`GHC.Unit.State` instead of `compiler/GHC/Unit/State.hs` [3].

For current and future haddock's markup, this patch encloses
the module name with "" [4].

Improve parser error messages for the @-operator

Since GHC diverges from the Haskell Report by allowing the user
to define (@) as an infix operator, we better give a good
error message when the user does so unintentionally.

In general, this is rather hard to do, as some failures will be
discovered only in the renamer or the type checker:

	x :: (Integer, Integer)
	x @ (a, b) = (1, 2)

This patch does *not* address this general case.

However, it gives much better error messages when the binding
is not syntactically valid:

	pairs xs @ (_:xs') = zip xs xs'

Before this patch, the error message was rather puzzling:

	<interactive>:1:1: error: Parse error in pattern: pairs

After this patch, the error message includes a hint:

	<interactive>:1:1: error:
	    Parse error in pattern: pairs
	    In a function binding for the ‘@’ operator.
	    Perhaps you meant an as-pattern, which must not be surrounded by whitespace

Improve parser error messages for TypeApplications

With this patch, we always parse  f @t  as a type application,
thereby producing better error messages.

This steals two syntactic forms:

* Prefix form of the @-operator in expressions. Since the @-operator is
  a divergence from the Haskell Report anyway, this is not a major loss.

* Prefix form of @-patterns. Since we are stealing loose infix form
  anyway, might as well sacrifice the prefix form for the sake of much
  better error messages.

Improve parser error messages for TemplateHaskellQuotes

While [e| |], [t| |], [d| |], and so on, steal syntax from list
comprehensions, [| |] and [|| ||] do not steal any syntax.

Thus we can improve error messages by always accepting them in the
lexer. Turns out the renamer already performs necessary validation.

gitlab-ci: Disable use of ld.lld on ARMv7

It turns out that lld non-deterministically fails on ARMv7. I suspect
this may be due to the a kernel regression as this only started
happening when we upgraded to 5.4. Nevertheless, easily avoided by
simply sticking with gold.

Works around #18280.

gitlab-ci: Ensure that workaround for #18280 applies to bindisttest

We need to ensure that the `configure` flags working around #18280 are
propagated to the bindisttest `configure` as well.
