Closes #26688. - - - - - 81d10134 by Cheng Shao at 2025-12-24T06:11:52-05:00 configure: remove dead code in configure scripts This patch removes dead code in our configure scripts, including: - Variables and auto-detected programs that are not used - autoconf functions that are not used, or export a variable that's not used - `AC_CHECK_HEADERS` invocations that don't have actual corresponding `HAVE_XXX_H` usage - Other dead code (e.g. stray `AC_DEFUN()`) Co-authored-by: Codex <codex(a)openai.com> - - - - - fb1381c3 by Wolfgang Jeltsch at 2025-12-24T06:12:34-05:00 Remove unused known keys and names for list operations This removes the known-key and corresponding name variables for `concat`, `filter`, `zip`, and `(++)`, as they are apparently nowhere used in GHC’s source code. - - - - - 7b9c20f4 by Recursion Ninja at 2025-12-24T10:35:36-05:00 Decoupling Language.Haskell.Syntax.Binds from GHC.Types.Basic by transferring InlinePragma types between the modules. * Moved InlinePragma data-types to Language.Haskell.Syntax.Binds.InlinePragma * Partitioned of Arity type synonyms to GHC.Types.Arity * InlinePragma is now extensible via Trees That Grow * Activation is now extensible via Trees That Grow * Maybe Arity change to more descriptive InlineSaturation data-type * InlineSaturation information removed from InlinePragma during GHS parsing pass * Cleaned up the exposed module interfaces of the new modules - - - - - a3afae0c by Simon Peyton Jones at 2025-12-25T15:26:36-05:00 Check for rubbish literals in Lint Addresses #26607.

Some numeric bugs only surface with optimization, omitting this can hide these bugs and even make them slip into release!

The linker script is used for merging object files into a single `HS*.o` object file and undoing the effect of split sections, when building the "ghci library" object file. However, we don't build the ghci library on windows, and this code path is actually unreachable. - - - - - 53038ea9 by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-05T16:24:04-05:00 hadrian: drop unused logic for building ghci libraries This patch drops the unused logic for building ghci libraries in hadrian: - The term "ghci library" refers to an optional object file per library `HS*.o`, which is merged from multiple object files in that library using the `MergeObjects` builder in hadrian. - The original rationale of having a ghci library object, in addition to normal archives, was to speedup ghci loading, since the combined object is linked with a linker script to undo the effects of `-fsplit-sections` to reduce section count and make it easier for the RTS linker to handle. - However, most GHC builds enable `dynamicGhcPrograms` by default, in such cases the ghci library would already not be built. - `dynamicGhcPrograms` is disabled on Windows, but still we don't build the ghci library due to lack of functioning merge objects command. - The only case that we actually build ghci library objects, are alpine fully static bindists. However, for other reasons, split sections is already disabled for fully static builds anyway! - There will not be any regression if the ghci library objects are absent from a GHC global libdir when `dynamicGhcPrograms` is disabled. The RTS linker can already load the archives without any issue. Hence the removal. We now forcibly disable ghci libraries for all Cabal components, and rip out all logic related to `MergeObjects` and ghci libraries in hadrian. This also nicely cleans up some old todos and fixmes that are no longer relevant. Note that MergeObjects in hadrian is not the same thing as merge objects in the GHC driver. The latter is not affected by this patch. ------------------------- Metric Decrease: libdir ------------------------- Co-authored-by: Codex <codex(a)openai.com> - - - - - 8f209336 by Simon Jakobi at 2026-01-05T16:24:48-05:00 User's guide: Fix link to language extensions Instead of linking to haddocks, it seemed more useful to link to the extension overview in the user's guide. Closes #26614. - - - - - 0b7df6db by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-01-06T09:32:23-05:00 Improved fundeps for closed type families The big payload of this commit is to execute the plan suggested in #23162, by improving the way that we generate functional dependencies for closed type families. It is all described in Note [Exploiting closed type families] Most of the changes are in GHC.Tc.Solver.FunDeps Other small changes * GHC.Tc.Solver.bumpReductionDepth. This function brings together the code that * Bumps the depth * Checks for overflow Previously the two were separated, sometimes quite widely. * GHC.Core.Unify.niFixSubst: minor improvement, removing an unnecessary itraetion in the base case. * GHC.Core.Unify: no need to pass an InScopeSet to tcUnifyTysForInjectivity. It can calculate one for itself; and it is never inspected anyway so it's free to do so. * GHC.Tc.Errors.Ppr: slight impovement to the error message for reduction-stack overflow, when a constraint (rather than a type) is involved. * GHC.Tc.Solver.Monad.wrapUnifier: small change to the API - - - - - fde8bd88 by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-01-06T09:32:23-05:00 Add missing (KK4) to kick-out criteria There was a missing case in kick-out that meant we could fail to solve an eminently-solvable constraint.

Small tidy-up. * Remove `is_ip` and `mkIPErr` from GHC.Tc.Errors; instead enhance mkDictErr to handle implicit parameters. Small refactor. - - - - - fe4cb252 by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-01-06T09:32:24-05:00 Improve recording of insolubility for fundeps This commit addresses #22652, by recording when the fundeps for a constraint are definitely insoluble. That in turn improves the perspicacity of the pattern-match overlap checker. See Note [Insoluble fundeps] - - - - - df0ffaa5 by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-01-06T09:32:24-05:00 Fix a buglet in niFixSubst The MR of which this is part failed an assertion check extendTvSubst because we extended the TvSubst with a CoVar. Boo. This tiny patch fixes it, and adds the regression test from #13882 that showed it up. - - - - - 3d6aba77 by konsumlamm at 2026-01-06T09:33:16-05:00 Fix changelog formatting - - - - - 69e0ab59 by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-06T19:37:56-05:00 compiler: add targetHasRTSWays function This commit adds a `targetHasRTSWays` util function in `GHC.Driver.Session` to query if the target RTS has a given Ways (e.g. WayThreaded). - - - - - 25a0ab94 by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-06T19:37:56-05:00 compiler: link on-demand external interpreter with threaded RTS This commit makes the compiler link the on-demand external interpreter program with threaded RTS if it is available in the target RTS ways. This is a better default than the previous single-threaded RTS, and it enables the external interpreter to benefit from parallelism when deserializing CreateBCOs messages. - - - - - 92404a2b by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-06T19:37:56-05:00 hadrian: link iserv with threaded RTS This commit makes hadrian link iserv with threaded RTS if it's available in the RTS ways. Also cleans up the iserv main C program which can be replaced by the `-fkeep-cafs` link-time option. - - - - - a20542d2 by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-06T19:38:38-05:00 ghc-internal: remove unused GMP macros This patch removes unused GMP related macros from `ghc-internal`. The in-tree GMP version was hard coded and outdated, but it was not used anywhere anyway. - - - - - 4079dcd6 by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-06T19:38:38-05:00 hadrian: fix in-tree gmp configure error on newer c compilers Building in-tree gmp on newer c compilers that default to c23 fails at configure stage, this patch fixes it, see added comment for explanation. - - - - - 414d1fe1 by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-06T19:39:20-05:00 compiler: fix LLVM backend pdep/pext handling for i386 target This patch fixes LLVM backend's pdep/pext handling for i386 target, and also removes non-existent 128/256/512 bit hs_pdep/hs_pext callees. See amended note for more explanation. Fixes #26450.

This commit removes the allow_failure flag so that other i386 regressions in the future are signaled more timely. - - - - - 52d00c05 by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-01-07T10:24:21-05:00 Add missing InVar->OutVar lookup in SetLevels As #26681 showed, the SetLevels pass was failing to map an InVar to an OutVar. Very silly! I'm amazed it hasn't broken before now. I have improved the type singatures (to mention InVar and OutVar) so it's more obvious what needs to happen. - - - - - ab0a5594 by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-07T10:25:04-05:00 hadrian: drop deprecated pkgHashSplitObjs code path This patch drops deprecated `pkgHashSplitObjs` code path from hadrian, since GHC itself has removed split objs support many versions ago and this code path is unused. - - - - - bb3a2ba1 by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-07T10:25:44-05:00 hadrian: remove linting/assertion in quick-validate flavour The `quick-validate` flavour is meant for testing ghc and passing the testsuite locally with similar settings to `validate` but faster. This patch removes the linting/assertion overhead in `quick-validate` to improve developer experience. I also took the chance to simplify redundant logic of rts/library way definition in `validate` flavour. - - - - - 7971f5dd by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-07T10:26:26-05:00 deriveConstants: clean up unused constants This patch cleans up unused constants from `deriveConstants`, they are not used by C/Cmm code in the RTS, nor compiler-generated code.

It's a sane default when you care about debugging and reliable backtraces, and makes debugging/profiling with bpf easier. - - - - - 8a3900a3 by Aaron Allen at 2026-01-07T10:27:57-05:00 [26705] Include TyCl instances in data fam iface entry Ensures dependent modules are recompiled when the class instances for a data family instance change. resolves #26705 - - - - - a0b980af by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-07T10:28:38-05:00 hadrian: remove unused Hp2Ps/Hpc builders This patch removes the Hp2Ps/Hpc builders from hadrian, they are unused in the build system. Note that the hp2ps/hpc programs are still built and not affected. - - - - - 50a58757 by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-07T10:29:20-05:00 hadrian: only install js files to libdir for wasm/js targets There are certain js files required for wasm/js targets to work, and previously hadrian would install those js files to libdir unconditionally on other targets as well. This could be a minor annoyance for packagers especially when the unused js files contain shebangs that interfere with the packaging process. This patch makes hadrian only selectively install the right js files for the right targets.

Co-authored-by: Codex <codex(a)openai.com> - - - - - 04ea3f83 by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-08T06:25:13-05:00 compiler: use -O3 as LLVM optimization level for ghc -O2 The GHC driver clamps LLVM optimization level to `-O2` due to LLVM crashes, but those were historical issues many years ago that are no longer relevant for LLVM versions we support today. This patch changes the driver to use `-O3` as LLVM optimization level when compiling with `-O2`, which is a better default when we're willing to trade compilation time for faster generated code. - - - - - 472df471 by Peter Trommler at 2026-01-08T13:28:54-05:00 Use half-word literals in info tables With this commit info tables are mapped to the same assembler code on big-endian and little-endian platforms.

With recent llvm-mingw toolchain, it would fail with: ``` x86_64-w64-mingw32-hsc2hs: Cannot combine instructions: [Quad 8,Long 4,Long 241,Ref ".Ltmp1-.Ltmp0"] ``` The hsc2hs default `--cross-compile` logic is slower but works. - - - - - 71fdef55 by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-01-08T13:30:57-05:00 Try harder to keep the substitution empty Avoid unnecessary cloning of variables in the Simplifier.

This field is used by '-static-external' to conditionally use '-l:foo.a' syntax during linking, which is more robust than trying to find the absolute path to an archive on our own. * Adds a switch '-fully-static' that is meant as a high-level interface for e.g. cabal. This also honours 'extra-libraries-static'. This also attempts to clean up the confusion around library search directories. At the moment, we have 3 types of directories in the package database format: * library-dirs * library-dirs-static * dynamic-library-dirs However, we only have two types of linking: dynamic or static. Given the existing logic in 'mungeDynLibFields', this patch assumes that 'library-dirs' is really just nothing but a fallback and always prefers the more specific variants if they exist and are non-empty. Conceptually, we should be ok with even just one search dirs variant. Haskell libraries are named differently depending on whether they're static or dynamic, so GHC can conveniently pick the right one depending on the linking needs. That means we don't really need to play tricks with search paths to convince the compiler to do linking as we want it. For system C libraries, the convention has been anyway to place static and dynamic libs next to each other, so we need to deal with that issue anyway and it is outside of our control. But this is out of the scope of this patch. This patch is backwards compatible with cabal.

The previous implementation is based on loads/stores of individual bytes and concatenating bytes with bitwise operations, which currently cannot be fused to a single load/store operation by GHC. This patch implements fast `get`/`put` functions for `Word16`/`Word32`/`Word64` based on a single memory load/store, with an additional `byteSwap` operation on little-endian hosts. It is based on unaligned load/store primops added since GHC 9.10, and we already require booting with at least 9.10, so it's about time to switch to this faster path. - - - - - 641ec3f0 by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-01-09T20:23:55-05:00 Fix scoping errors in specialisation Using -fspecialise-aggressively in #26682 showed up a couple of subtle errors in the type-class specialiser. * dumpBindUDs failed to call `deleteCallsMentioning`, resulting in a call that mentioned a dictionary that was not in scope. This call has been missing since 2009! commit c43c981705ec33da92a9ce91eb90f2ecf00be9fe Author: Simon Peyton Jones <simonpj(a)microsoft.com> Date: Fri Oct 23 16:15:51 2009 +0000 Fixed by re-combining `dumpBindUDs` and `dumpUDs`. * I think there was another bug involving the quantified type variables in polymorphic specialisation. In any case I refactored `specHeader` and `spec_call` so that the former looks for the extra quantified type variables rather than the latter. This is quite a worthwhile simplification: less code, easier to grok.

For example, suppose we have stack slot assigments %v1 :: FF64 |-> StackSlot 0 %v2 :: FF64 |-> StackSlot 1 Later, we start using %v1 at a larger format (e.g. F64x2) and we need to spill it again. Then we **must not** use StackSlot 0, as a spill at format F64x2 would clobber the data in StackSlot 1. This can cause some fragmentation of the `StackMap`, but that's probably OK.

Hadrian would no longer build or distribute `iserv`, and the GHC driver would use the on-demand external interpreter by default when invoked with `-fexternal-interpreter`, without needing to specify `-pgmi ""`. This has multiple benefits: - It allows cleanup of a lot of legacy hacks in the hadrian codebase. - It paves the way for running cross ghc's iserv via cross emulator (#25523), fixing TH/ghci support for cross targets other than wasm/js. - - - - - c1fe0097 by Peter Trommler at 2026-01-14T03:54:49-05:00 PPC NCG: Fix shift right MO code The shift amount in shift right [arithmetic] MOs is machine word width. Therefore remove unnecessary zero- or sign-extending of shift amount. It looks harmless to extend the shift amount argument because the shift right instruction uses only the seven lowest bits (i. e. mod 128). But now we have a conversion operation from a smaller type to word width around a memory load at word width. The types are not matching up but there is no check done in CodeGen. The necessary conversion from word width down to the smaller width would be translated into a no-op on PowerPC anyway. So all seems harmless if it was not for a small optimisation in getRegister'. In getRegister' a load instruction with the smaller width of the conversion operation was generated. This loaded the most significant bits of the word in memory on a big-endian platform. These bits were zero and hence shift right was used with shift amount zero and not one as required in test Sized.

This now moves all that logic out of hadrian and allows us to have a clean Haskell package to build and link against and ship it without extra logic. This patch still retains the ability to link against a system libffi. The main reason of bundling libffi was that on some platforms (e.g. FreeBSD and Mac), system libffi is not visible to the C toolchain by default, so users would require settings in e.g. cabal to be able to compile anything. This adds the submodule libffi-clib to the repository. - - - - - 5e1cd595 by Peng Fan at 2026-01-14T11:12:26-05:00 NCG/LA64: add support for la664 micro architecture Add '-mla664' flag to LA664, which has some new features: atomic instructions, dbar hints, etc. 'LA464' is the default so that unrecognized instructions are not generated. - - - - - c56567ec by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-01-15T23:19:04+00:00 Add evals for strict data-con args in worker-functions This fixes #26722, by adding an eval in a worker for arguments of strict data constructors, even if the function body uses them strictly.

If we have a call (<|> arg1 arg2) where arg1 is a parser, and hence often visibly a lambda, it's no so great to inline <|>, because we are still stuck on x.

Marge Bot pushed to branch wip/marge_bot_batch_merge_job at Glasgow Haskell Compiler / GHC Commits: 7b616b9f by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-16T06:45:00-05:00 compiler: fix regression when compiling foreign stubs in the rts unit This patch fixes a regression when compiling foreign stubs in the rts unit introduced in 05e25647f72bc102061af3f20478aa72bff6ff6e. A simple revert would fix it, but it's better to implement a proper fix with comment for better understanding of the underlying problem, see the added comment for explanation.

This MR addresses them, while also (arguably) simplifying the code a bit. See new Note [Solving newtype equalities: overview] and Note [Decomposing newtype equalities] and Note [Eager newtype decomposition] and Note [Even more eager newtype decomposition] For some reason, on Windows only, runtime allocations decrease for test T5205 (from 52k to 48k). I have not idea why. No change at all on Linux. I'm just going to accept the change. (I saw this same effect in another MR so I think it's a fault in the baseline.)
