This starts accumulating a lot of `UnlinkedBCO` and memory over time. However, the `Linkable` is merely used to later record its usage in `mkObjectUsage`, which is used for recompilation checking. However, this is incorrect, as the interface file and bytecode objects could be in different states, e.g. the interface changes, but the bytecode library hasn't changed so we don't need to recompile and vice versa. By computing a `Fingerprint` for the `ModuleByteCode`, and recording it in the `LinkableUsage`, we know precisely whether the `ByteCode` object on disk is outdated. Thus, parts of this commit just makes sure that we efficiently compute a `Fingerprint` for `ModuleByteCode` and store it in the on-disk representation of `ModuleByteCode`. We change the `LoaderState` to retain `LinkableUsage`, which is smaller representation of a `Linkable`. This allows us to free the unneeded fields of `Linkable` after linking them. We declare the following memory invariants that this commit implements: * No `LinkablePart` should be retained from `LoaderState`. * `Linkable`s should be unloaded after they have been loaded. These invariants are unfortunately tricky to automatically uphold, so we are simply documenting our assumptions for now. We introduce the `linkable-space` test which makes sure that after loading, no `DotGBC` or `UnlinkedBCO` is retained. ------------------------- Metric Increase: MultiLayerModulesTH_OneShot ------------------------- We allocate a bit more, but the peak number of bytes doesn't change. While a bit unfortunate, accepting the metric increase. We add multiple new performance measurements where we were able to observe the desired memory invariants. Further, we add regression tests to validate that the recompilation checker behaves more correct than before. - - - - - 43 changed files: - + compiler/GHC/ByteCode/Binary.hs - + compiler/GHC/ByteCode/Recomp/Binary.hs - compiler/GHC/ByteCode/Serialize.hs - compiler/GHC/Driver/Hooks.hs - compiler/GHC/Driver/Main.hs - compiler/GHC/Driver/Pipeline.hs - compiler/GHC/Driver/Plugins.hs - compiler/GHC/HsToCore/Usage.hs - compiler/GHC/Iface/Recomp.hs - compiler/GHC/Iface/Recomp/Types.hs - compiler/GHC/Linker/ByteCode.hs - compiler/GHC/Linker/Deps.hs - compiler/GHC/Linker/Loader.hs - compiler/GHC/Linker/Types.hs - compiler/GHC/Runtime/Loader.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Types.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Utils/Monad.hs - compiler/GHC/Unit/Home/ModInfo.hs - compiler/GHC/Unit/Module/Deps.hs - compiler/GHC/Unit/Module/Status.hs - compiler/GHC/Utils/Misc.hs - compiler/ghc.cabal.in - ghc/GHCi/Leak.hs - + testsuite/tests/bytecode/TLinkable/BCOTemplate.hs - + testsuite/tests/bytecode/TLinkable/LinkableUsage01.stderr - + testsuite/tests/bytecode/TLinkable/LinkableUsage02.stderr - + testsuite/tests/bytecode/TLinkable/Makefile - + testsuite/tests/bytecode/TLinkable/all.T - + testsuite/tests/bytecode/TLinkable/genLinkables.sh - + testsuite/tests/bytecode/TLinkable/linkable-space.hs - + testsuite/tests/bytecode/TLinkable/linkable-space.stdout - testsuite/tests/count-deps/CountDepsAst.stdout - testsuite/tests/count-deps/CountDepsParser.stdout - testsuite/tests/driver/multipleHomeUnits/multipleHomeUnits_recomp_th.stdout - + testsuite/tests/driver/recomp022/A1.hs - + testsuite/tests/driver/recomp022/A2.hs - + testsuite/tests/driver/recomp022/A3.hs - + testsuite/tests/driver/recomp022/B.hs - + testsuite/tests/driver/recomp022/C.hs - + testsuite/tests/driver/recomp022/Makefile - + testsuite/tests/driver/recomp022/all.T - + testsuite/tests/driver/recomp022/recomp022a.stdout - + testsuite/tests/driver/recomp022/recomp022b.stdout The diff was not included because it is too large.
