perf: Replace uses of genericLength with strictGenericLength
genericLength is a recursive function and marked NOINLINE. It is not
going to specialise. In profiles, it can be seen that 3% of total compilation
time when computing bytecode is spend calling this non-specialised
function.
In addition, we can simplify `addListToSS` to avoid traversing the input
list twice and also allocating an intermediate list (after the call to
reverse).
Overall these changes reduce the time spend in 'assembleBCOs' from 5.61s
to 3.88s. Allocations drop from 8GB to 5.3G.

Use mkTrAppChecked in ds_ev_typeable
This change avoids violating the invariant of mkTrApp according to which
the argument should not be a fully saturated function type.
This ensures we don't return false negatives for type equality
involving function types.

rts/linker: Don't fail due to RTLD_NOW
In !12264 we started using the NativeObj machinery introduced some time
ago for loading of shared objects. One of the side-effects of this
change is shared objects are now loaded eagerly (i.e. with `RTLD_NOW`).
This is needed by NativeObj to ensure full visibility of the mappings of
the loaded object, which is in turn needed for safe shared object
unloading.
Unfortunately, this change subtly regressed, causing compilation
failures in some programs. Specifically, shared objects which refer to
undefined symbols (e.g. which may be usually provided by either the
executable image or libraries loaded via `dlopen`) will fail to load
with eager binding. This is problematic as GHC loads all package
dependencies while, e.g., evaluating TemplateHaskell splices. This
results in compilation failures in programs depending upon (but not
using at compile-time) packages with undefined symbol references.
To mitigate this NativeObj now first attempts to load an object via
eager binding, reverting to lazy binding (and disabling unloading) on
failure.
See Note [Don't fail due to RTLD_NOW].
Fixes #25943.

Fix bugs in `integerRecipMod` and `integerPowMod`
This fixes #26017.
* `integerRecipMod x 1` now returns `(# 1 | #)` for all x; previously it
incorrectly returned `(# | () #)`, indicating failure.
* `integerPowMod 0 e m` now returns `(# | () #)` for e<0 and m>1, indicating
failure; previously it incorrectly returned `(# 0 | #)`.

rts/linker: Improve efficiency of proddable blocks structure
Previously the linker's "proddable blocks" check relied on a simple
linked list of spans. This resulted in extremely poor complexity while
linking objects with lots of small sections (e.g. objects built with
split sections).
Rework the mechanism to instead use a simple interval set implemented
via binary search.
Fixes #26009.

rts/linker/PEi386: Don't repeatedly load DLLs
Previously every DLL-imported symbol would result in a call to
`LoadLibraryEx`. This ended up constituting over 40% of the runtime of
`ghc --interactive -e 42` on Windows. Avoid this by maintaining a
hash-set of loaded DLL names, skipping the call if we have already
loaded the requested DLL.

rts: fix rts_clearMemory logic when sanity checks are enabled
This commit fixes an RTS assertion failure when invoking
rts_clearMemory with +RTS -DS. -DS implies -DZ which asserts that free
blocks contain 0xaa as the designated garbage value. Also adds the
sanity way to rts_clearMemory test to prevent future regression.
Closes #26011.
ChatGPT Codex automatically diagnosed the issue and proposed the
initial patch in a single shot, given a GHC checkout and the following
prompt:
---
Someone is reporting the following error when attempting to use `rts_clearMemory` with the RTS option `-DS`:
```
test.wasm: internal error: ASSERTION FAILED: file rts/sm/Storage.c, line 1216
(GHC version 9.12.2.20250327 for wasm32_unknown_wasi)
Please report this as a GHC bug: https://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
```
What's the culprit? How do I look into this issue?
---
I manually reviewed & revised the patch, tested and submitted it.

compiler: fix GHC.SysTools.Ar archive member size writing logic
This patch fixes a long-standing bug in `GHC.SysTools.Ar` that emits
the wrong archive member size in each archive header. It should encode
the exact length of the member payload, excluding any padding byte,
otherwise malformed archive that extracts a broken object with an
extra trailing byte could be created.
Apart from the in-tree `T26120` test, I've also created an out-of-tree
testsuite at https://github.com/TerrorJack/ghc-ar-quickcheck that
contains QuickCheck roundtrip tests for `GHC.SysTools.Ar`. With this
fix, simple roundtrip tests and `writeGNUAr`/GNU `ar` roundtrip test
passes. There might be more bugs lurking in here, but this patch is
still a critical bugfix already.
Fixes #26120 #22586.
