NCG: AArch64 - Add -finter-module-far-jumps.
When enabled the arm backend will assume jumps to targets outside of the
current module are further than 128MB away.
This will allow for code to work if:
* The current module results in less than 128MB of code.
* The whole program is loaded within a 4GB memory region.
We have seen a few reports of broken linkers (#24648) where this flag might allow
a program to compile/run successfully at a very small performance cost.

SpecConstr: Introduce a separate argument limit for forced specs.
We used to put no limit at all on specializations forced via the SPEC
argument. This isn't always reasonable so we introduce a very high limit
that applies to forced specializations, a flag to control it, and we now
emit a warning if we fail a specialization because we exceed the
warning.

Propagate long distance info to guarded let binds
This commit ensures that we propagate the enclosing long distance
information to let bindings inside guards, in order to get accurate
pattern-match checking warnings, in particular incomplete record
selector warnings.
Example:
data D = K0 | K1 { fld :: Int }
f :: D -> Int
f d@(K1 {})
| let i = fld d
= i
f _ = 3
We now correctly recognise that the field selector 'fld' cannot fail,
due to the outer pattern match which guarantees that the value 'd' has
the field 'fld'.

Don't report used duplicate record fields as unused
This commit fixes the bug reported in #24035 in which the import of a
duplicate record field could be erroneously reported as unused.
The issue is that an import of the form "import M (fld)" can import
several different 'Name's, and we should only report an error if ALL
of those 'Name's are unused, not if ANY are.
Note [Reporting unused imported duplicate record fields]
in GHC.Rename.Names explains the solution to this problem.

GHC settings: always unescape escaped spaces
In #25204, it was noted that GHC didn't properly deal with having
spaces in its executable path, as it would compute an invalid path
for the C compiler.
The original fix in 31bf85ee49fe2ca0b17eaee0774e395f017a9373 used a
trick: escape spaces before splitting up flags into a list. This fixed
the behaviour with extra flags (e.g. -I), but forgot to also unescape
for non-flags, e.g. for an executable path (such as the C compiler).
This commit rectifies this oversight by consistently unescaping the
spaces that were introduced in order to split up argument lists.

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.

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.

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?

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.

Error message with EmptyCase and RequiredTypeArguments (#25004)
Fix a panic triggered by a combination of \case{} and forall t ->
ghci> let f :: forall (xs :: Type) -> (); f = \case {}
panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
GHC version 9.10.1:

The new error message looks like this:

• Empty list of alternatives in \case expression

* A new data type, BadEmptyCaseReason, is now used to describe
why an empty case has been rejected. Used in TcRnEmptyCase.
* HsMatchContextRn is passed to tcMatches, so that the type checker
can attach the syntactic context to the error message.
* tcMatches now rejects type arguments if the list of alternatives is
empty. This is what fixes the bug.

Take subordinate 'type' specifiers into account
This patch fixes multiple bugs (#22581, #25983, #25984, #25991)
in name resolution of subordinate import lists.
Bug #22581
----------
In subordinate import lists, the use of the `type` namespace specifier
used to be ignored. For example, this import statement was incorrectly
accepted:
import Prelude (Bool(type True))
Now it results in an error message:
<interactive>:2:17: error: [GHC-51433]
In the import of ‘Prelude’:
a data type called ‘Bool’ is exported,
but its subordinate item ‘True’ is not in the type namespace.
Bug #25983
----------
In subordinate import lists within a `hiding` clause, non-existent
items led to a poor warning message with -Wdodgy-imports. Consider:
import Prelude hiding (Bool(X))
The warning message for this import statement used to misreport the
cause of the problem:
<interactive>:3:24: warning: [GHC-56449] [-Wdodgy-imports]
In the import of ‘Prelude’:
an item called ‘Bool’ is exported, but it is a type.
Now the warning message is correct:
<interactive>:2:24: warning: [GHC-10237] [-Wdodgy-imports]
In the import of ‘Prelude’:
a data type called ‘Bool’ is exported, but it does not export
any constructors or record fields called ‘X’.
Bug #25984
----------
In subordinate import lists within a `hiding` clause, non-existent
items resulted in the entire import declaration being discarded.
For example, this program was incorrectly accepted:
import Prelude hiding (Bool(True,X))
t = True
Now it results in an error message:
<interactive>:2:5: error: [GHC-88464]
Data constructor not in scope: True
Bug #25991
----------
In subordinate import lists, it was not possible to refer to a class
method if there was an associated type of the same name:
module M_helper where
class C a b where
type a # b
(#) :: a -> b -> ()
module M where
import M_helper (C((#)))
This import declaration failed with:
M.hs:2:28: error: [GHC-10237]
In the import of ‘M_helper’:
an item called ‘C’ is exported, but it does not export any children
(constructors, class methods or field names) called ‘#’.
Now it is accepted.
Summary
-------
The changes required to fix these bugs are almost entirely confined to
GHC.Rename.Names. Other than that, there is a new error constructor
BadImportNonTypeSubordinates with error code [GHC-51433].
