-Version 9.12.1
-==============
-
-The significant changes to the various parts of the compiler are listed in the
-following sections. See the `migration guide
-<https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/wikis/migration/9.12>`_ on the GHC Wiki
-for specific guidance on migrating programs to this release.
-
-Language
-~~~~~~~~
-
-- New language extension: :extension:`OrPatterns` implements `GHC Proposal #522
-  <https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0522-or-patterns.rst>`_).
-- GHC Proposal `#569 <https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0569-multiline-strings.rst>`_
-  "Multiline string literals" has been implemented.
-  The following code is now accepted by GHC::
-
-    {-# LANGUAGE MultilineStrings #-}
-
-    x :: String
-    x =
-      """
-      This is a
-      multiline
-
-          string
-
-      literal
-      """
-
-  This feature is guarded behind :extension:`MultilineStrings`.
-
-- The ordering of variables used for visible type application has been changed in two cases.
-  It is supposed to be left-to-right, but due to an oversight, it was wrong:
-
-  - in an infix application ``f :: a `op` b``, it is now ``forall a op b.`` rather than
-    ``forall op a b.``
-  - in a linear type ``f :: a %m -> b``, it is now ``forall a m b.`` rather than
-    ``forall a b m.``.
-
-  This change is backwards-incompatible, although in practice we don't expect it
-  to cause significant disruption.
-
-- The built-in ``HasField`` class, used by :extension:`OverloadedRecordDot`, now
-  supports representation polymorphism (implementing part of `GHC Proposal #583
-  <https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0583-hasfield-redesign.rst>`_).
-  This means that code using :extension:`UnliftedDatatypes` or
-  :extension:`UnliftedNewtypes` can now use :extension:`OverloadedRecordDot`.
-
-- Unboxed ``Float#``/``Double#`` literals now support the HexFloatLiterals extension
-  (`#22155 <https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/22155>`_).
-
-- :extension:`UnliftedFFITypes`: GHC will now accept FFI types like: ``(# #) -> T`` where ``(# #)``
-  is used as the one and only function argument.
-
-- The venerable ``default`` declarations have been generalized. They can now name a class
-  other than ``Num`` and the class defaults can be exported. The functionality is guarded
-  by the new ``NamedDefaults`` language extension. See the `GHC proposal
-  <https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0409-exportable-named-default.rst>`__
-  for details.
-
-- GHC now takes COMPLETE pragmas into consideration when deciding whether
-  pattern matches in do notation are fallible.
-
-- As part of `GHC Proposal #281 <https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0281-visible-forall.rst>`_
-  GHC now accepts type syntax in expressions, namely function type arrow ``a -> b``,
-  constraint arrow ``a => b``, and ``forall`` telescopes: ::
-
-    g = f (forall a. Show a => a -> String)
-      where f :: forall a -> ...
-
-- In accordance with `GHC Proposal #425 <https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0425-decl-invis-binders.rst>`_,
-  GHC now permits wildcard binders in type declarations: ::
-
-    type Const a b = a   -- before: the `b` had to be named even if unused on the RHS
-    type Const a _ = a   -- now: the compiler accepts a wildcard binder `_`
-
-Compiler
-~~~~~~~~
-
-- Constructor ``PluginProv`` of type ``UnivCoProvenance``, relevant
-  for typing plugins, gets an extra ``DCoVarSet`` argument.
-  The argument is intended to contain the in-scope coercion variables
-  that the the proof represented by the coercion makes use of.
-  See ``Note [The importance of tracking UnivCo dependencies]``
-  in ``GHC.Core.TyCo.Rep``, :ref:`constraint-solving-with-plugins`
-  and the migration guide.
-
-- The flag :ghc-flag:`-fprof-late` will no longer prevent top level constructors from being statically allocated.
-
-  It used to be the case that we would add a cost centre for bindings like ``foo = Just bar``.
-  This turned the binding into a CAF that would allocate the constructor on first evaluation.
-
-  However without the cost centre ``foo`` can be allocated at compile time. This reduces code-bloat and
-  reduces overhead for short-running applications.
-
-  The tradeoff is that calling ``whoCreated`` on top level value definitions like ``foo`` will be less informative.
-
-- A new flag :ghc-flag:`-fexpose-overloaded-unfoldings` has been added providing a lightweight alternative to :ghc-flag:`-fexpose-all-unfoldings`.
-
-- :ghc-flag:`-Wderiving-typeable` has been added to :ghc-flag:`-Wall`.
-
-- SIMD support has been added to the X86 native code generator.
-  For the time being, only 128 bit wide vectors are supported, with most
-  floating-point operations implemented, together with a few integer vector
-  operations. Other operations still require the LLVM backend. Contributors
-  welcome!
-
-- i386 Windows support is now completely removed amid massive cleanup
-  of legacy code to pave way for Arm64 Windows support (`#24883
-  <https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/24883>`_). Rest
-  assured, this does not impact existing support for x86_64 Windows or
-  i386 Linux. For end users, the ``stdcall`` C calling convention is
-  now fully deprecated and GHC will unconditionally produce a warning
-  and treat it as ``ccall``. All C import/export declarations on
-  Windows should now use ``ccall``.
-
-- 32-bit macOS/iOS support has also been completely removed (`#24921
-  <https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/24921>`_). This does
-  not affect existing support of apple systems on x86_64/aarch64.
-
-- The flag :ghc-flag:`-fignore-asserts` will now also enable the
-  :extension:`CPP` macro ``__GLASGOW_HASKELL_ASSERTS_IGNORED__`` (`#24967
-  <https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/24967>`_).
-  This enables people to write their own custom assertion functions.
-  See :ref:`assertions`.
-
-- The flag :ghc-flag:`-fkeep-auto-rules` that forces GHC to keep auto generated
-  specialization rules was added. It was actually added ghc-9.10.1 already but
-  mistakenly not mentioned in the 9.10.1 changelog.
-
-- Fixed a bug that caused GHC to panic when using the aarch64 ncg and -fregs-graph
-  on certain programs. (#24941)
-
-- A new warning :ghc-flag:`-Wview-pattern-signatures` is introduced to notify users about
-  future changes in parsing of view patterns in combination with pattern signatures
-
-- GHC now includes a new experimental flag, :ghc-flag:`-fobject-determinism`,
-  which enables deterministic object code generation, with a minor trade-off in
-  compilation speed (typically a 1-2% regression). Note, however, that this
-  flag doesn't yet ensure determinism across all compilation configurations; we
-  anticipate these cases will be addressed in future updates (:ghc-ticket:`12935`).
-
-GHCi
-~~~~
-
-- Fix a bug where GHCi would not start alongside a local file called ``Prelude.hs``
-  or ``Prelude.lhs`` (:ghc-ticket:`10920`).
-
-
-Runtime system
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-- Reduce fragmentation incurred by the nonmoving GC's segment allocator. In one application this reduced resident set size by 26%. See :ghc-ticket:`24150`.
-
-- Memory return logic now uses live bytes rather than live blocks to measure the size of the heap.
-  This primarily affects the non-moving GC, which should now be more willing to return memory to the OS.
-  Users who have fine-tuned the :rts-flag:`-F ⟨factor⟩`, :rts-flag:`-Fd ⟨factor⟩`, or :rts-flag:`-O ⟨size⟩` flags,
-  and use the non-moving GC, should see if adjustments are needed in light of this change.
-
-- The new runtime flag :rts-flag:`--read-tix-file=\<yes|no\>` allows to modify whether a preexisting .tix file is read in at the beginning of a program run.
-  The default is currently ``--read-tix-file=yes`` but will change to ``--read-tix-file=no`` in a future version of GHC.
-  For this reason, a warning is emitted if a .tix file is read in implicitly. You can silence this warning by explicitly passing ``--read-tix-file=yes``.
-  Details can be found in `GHC proposal 612 <https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0612-fhpc-accumulation.md>`__.

-Cmm
-~~~
-
-- The ``bits128``, ``bits256`` and ``bits512`` types have been removed, in
-  favour of ``vec128``, ``vec256`` and ``vec512``.
-
-- The ``[*]`` jump annotation ("all registers live") has been removed, in favour
-  of more specific annotations ``GP_ARG_REGS`` (all general-purpose registers
-  live), ``SCALAR_ARG_REGS`` (all scalar registers live), and ``V16_ARG_REGS``,
-  ``V32_ARG_REGS`` and ``V64_ARG_REGS`` (meaning: all scalar registers plus
-  all vector registers up to the given vector width in bytes).
-
-``base`` library
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-- Propagate HasCallStack from `errorCallWithCallStackException` to exception backtraces, fixing a bug in the implementation of `CLC proposal 164 <https://github.com/haskell/core-libraries-committee/issues/164>`.
-
-- Add exception type metadata to SomeException's displayException and
-  "Exception:" header to the default handler
-  (i.e. ``GHC.Conc.Sync.uncaughtExceptionHandler``):
-
-  https://github.com/haskell/core-libraries-committee/issues/231
-  https://github.com/haskell/core-libraries-committee/issues/261
-
-- The `deprecation process of GHC.Pack <https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/21461>` has come its term. The module has now been removed from ``base``.
-
-``ghc-prim`` library
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-- Usage of deprecated primops is now correctly reported (#19629).
-- New primops `isMutableByteArrayWeaklyPinned#` and `isByteArrayWeaklyPinned#`
-  to allow users to avoid copying large arrays safely when dealing with ffi.
-  See the users guide for more details on the different kinds of
-  pinned arrays in 9.12.
-
-  This need for this distinction originally surfaced in https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/22255
-
-- New fused multiply-add instructions for vectors of floating-point values,
-  such as ``fmaddFloatX4# :: FloatX4# -> FloatX4# -> FloatX4# -> FloatX4#`` and
-  ``fnmsubDoubleX2# :: DoubleX2# -> DoubleX2# -> DoubleX2# -> DoubleX2#``.
-  These follow the same semantics as ``fmadd``/``fmsub``/``fnmadd``/``fnmsub``,
-  operating in parallel on vectors of floating-point values.
-
-- New vector shuffle instructions, such as ``shuffleFloatX4# :: FloatX4# -> FloatX4# -> (# Int#, Int#, Int#, Int# #) -> FloatX4#``.
-  These instructions take two input vectors and a collection of indices (which must
-  be compile-time literal integers), and constructs a result vector by extracting
-  out the values at those indices. For instance, ``shuffleFloatX4#`` on input vectors with
-  components ``(# 0.1#, 11.1#, 22.1#, 33.1# #)`` and ``(# 44.1#, 55.1#, 66.1#, 77.1# #)``,
-  and indices ``(# 4#, 3#, 6#, 1# #)``, will return a vector with components
-  ``(# 44.1#, 33.1#, 66.1#, 11.1# #)``.
-
-- New instructions for minimum/maximum, such as `minDouble#` and
-  `minFloatX4#`. These instructions compute the minimum/maximum of their inputs,
-  working component-wise for SIMD vectors. Supported argument types are vector
-  integer values (e.g. `Word16X8#`, `Int32X4#` etc) and both scalar and vector
-  floating point values (e.g. `Float#`, `DoubleX2#`, `FloatX8#` etc).
