level imports: Check the level of exported identifiers
The level imports specification states that exported identifiers have to
be at level 0. This patch adds the requird level checks that all
explicitly mentioned identifiers occur at level 0.
For implicit export specifications (T(..) and module B), only level 0
identifiers are selected for re-export.

ipe: Use stable IDs for IPE entries
IPEs have historically been indexed and reported by their address.
This makes it impossible to compare profiles between runs, since the
addresses may change (due to ASLR) and also makes it tricky to separate
out the IPE map from the binary.
This small patch adds a stable identifier for each IPE entry.
The stable identifier is a single 64 bit word. The high-bits are a
per-module identifier and the low bits identify which entry in each
module.
1. When a node is added into the IPE buffer it is assigned a unique
identifier from an incrementing global counter.
2. Each entry already has an index by it's position in the
`IpeBufferListNode`.
The two are combined together by the `IPE_ENTRY_KEY` macro.
Info table profiling uses the stable identifier rather than the address
of the info table.
The benefits of this change are:
* Profiles from different runs can be easily compared
* The metadata can be extracted from the binary (via the eventlog for
example) and then stripped from the executable.

hadrian: enable terminfo if --with-curses-* flags are given
The GHC make build system used to support WITH_TERMINFO in ghc.mk which
allowed controlling whether to build GHC with terminfo or not. hadrian
has replaced this with a system where this is effectively controlled by
the cross-compiling setting (the default WITH_TERMINFO value was bassed
on CrossCompiling, iirc).
This behavior is undesireable in some cases and there is not really a
good way to work around it. Especially for downstream packagers,
modifying this via UserSettings is not really feasible since such a
source file has to be kept in sync with Settings/Default.hs manually
since it can't import Settings.Default or any predefined Flavour
definitions.
To avoid having to add a new setting to cfg/system.config and/or a new
configure flag (though I'm happy to implement both if required), I've
chosen to take --with-curses-* being set explicitly as an indication
that the user wants to have terminfo enabled. This would work for
Nixpkgs which sets these flags [1] as well as haskell.nix [2] (which
goes to some extreme measures [3] [4] to force terminfo in all scenarios).
In general, I'm an advocate for making the GHC build be the same for
native and cross insofar it is possible since it makes packaging GHC and
Haskell related things while still supporting cross much less
compilicated. A more minimal GHC with reduced dependencies should
probably be a specific flavor, not the default.
Partially addresses #26288 by forcing terminfo to be built if the user
explicitly passes configure flags related to it. However, it isn't built
by default when cross-compiling yet nor is there an explicit way to
control the package being built.

Improve deep subsumption
This commit improves the DeepSubsumption sub-typing implementation
in GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify.tc_sub_type_deep by being less eager to fall back
to unification.
For example, we now are properly able to prove the subtyping relationship
((∀ a. a->a) -> Int) -> Bool <= β[tau] Bool
for an unfilled metavariable β. In this case (with an AppTy on the right),
we used to fall back to unification. No longer: now, given that the LHS
is a FunTy and that the RHS is a deep rho type (does not need any instantiation),
we try to make the RHS into a FunTy, viz.
β := (->) γ
We can then continue using covariance & contravariance of the function
arrow, which allows us to prove the subtyping relationship, instead of
trying to unify which would cause us to error out with:
Couldn't match expected type ‘β’ with actual type ‘(->) ((∀ a. a -> a) -> Int)
See Note [FunTy vs non-FunTy case in tc_sub_type_deep] in GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify.
The other main improvement in this patch concerns type inference.
The main subsumption logic happens (before & after this patch) in
GHC.Tc.Gen.App.checkResultTy. However, before this patch, all of the
DeepSubsumption logic only kicked in in 'check' mode, not in 'infer' mode.
This patch adds deep instantiation in the 'infer' mode of checkResultTy
when we are doing deep subsumption, which allows us to accept programs
such as:
f :: Int -> (forall a. a->a)
g :: Int -> Bool -> Bool
test1 b =
case b of
True -> f
False -> g
test2 b =
case b of
True -> g
False -> f
See Note [Deeply instantiate in checkResultTy when inferring].
Finally, we add representation-polymorphism checks to ensure that the
lambda abstractions we introduce when doing subsumption obey the
representation polymorphism invariants of Note [Representation polymorphism invariants]
in GHC.Core. See Note [FunTy vs FunTy case in tc_sub_type_deep].
This is accompanied by a courtesy change to `(<.>) :: HsWrapper -> HsWrapper -> HsWrapper`,
adding the equation:
WpCast c1 <.> WpCast c2 = WpCast (c1 `mkTransCo` c2)
This is useful because mkWpFun does not introduce an eta-expansion when
both of the argument & result wrappers are casts; so this change allows
us to avoid introducing lambda abstractions when casts suffice.

believe that this is necessary due to the unregisterised backend.
Specifically, the code generator will reference these symbols when

Allow users to customise the collection of exception annotations
Add a global `CollectExceptionAnnotationMechanism` which determines how
`ExceptionAnnotation`s are collected upon throwing an `Exception`.
This API is exposed via `ghc-experimental`.
By overriding how we collect `Backtraces`, we can control how the
`Backtraces` are displayed to the user by newtyping `Backtraces` and
giving a different instance for `ExceptionAnnotation`.
A concrete use-case for this feature is allowing us to experiment with
alternative stack decoders, without having to modify `base`, which take
additional information from the stack frames.
This commit does not modify how `Backtraces` are currently
collected or displayed.

ghc-internal: Fix naturalAndNot for NB/NS case
When the first argument to `naturalAndNot` is larger than a `Word` and the second is `Word`-sized, `naturalAndNot` will truncate the
result:
```
>>> naturalAndNot ((2 ^ 65) .|. (2 ^ 3)) (2 ^ 3)
0
```
In contrast, `naturalAndNot` does not truncate when both arguments are larger than a `Word`, so this appears to be a bug.
Luckily, the fix is pretty easy: we just need to call `bigNatAndNotWord#` instead of truncating.

Refactoring: Don't misuse `MCDiagnostic` for lint messages
`MCDiagnostic` is meant to be used for compiler diagnostics.
Any code that creates `MCDiagnostic` directly, without going through
`GHC.Driver.Errors.printMessage`, side steps `-fdiagnostics-as-json`
(see e.g. !14475, !14492 !14548).
To avoid this in the future I want to control more narrowly who creates
`MCDiagnostic` (see #24113).
Some parts of the compiler use `MCDiagnostic` purely for formatting
purposes, without creating any real compiler diagnostics. This change
introduces a helper function, `formatDiagnostic`, that can be used in
such cases instead of constructing `MCDiagnostic`.

rts: ensure MessageBlackHole.link is always a valid closure
We turn a MessageBlackHole into an StgInd in wakeBlockingQueue().
Therefore it's important that the link field, which becomes the

to lead to a crash, but it's good to be consistent about this invariant nonetheless.

rts: spin if we see a WHITEHOLE in messageBlackHole
When a BLACKHOLE gets cancelled in raiseAsync, we indirect to a THUNK.
GC can then shortcut this, replacing our BLACKHOLE with a fresh THUNK.
This THUNK is not guaranteed to have a valid indirectee field.
If at the same time, a message intended for the previous BLACKHOLE is
processed and concurrently we BLACKHOLE the THUNK, thus temporarily
turning it into a WHITEHOLE, we can get a segfault, since we look at the
undefined indirectee field of the THUNK
The fix is simple: spin if we see a WHITEHOLE, and it will soon be
replaced with a valid BLACKHOLE.

Implement unary classes
The big change is described exhaustively in
Note [Unary class magic] in GHC.Core.TyCon
Other changes
* We never unbox class dictionaries in worker/wrapper. This has been true for some
time now, but the logic is now centralised in functions in
GHC.Core.Opt.WorkWrap.Utils, namely `canUnboxTyCon`, and `canUnboxArg`
See Note [Do not unbox class dictionaries] in GHC.Core.Opt.WorkWrap.Utils.
* Refactored the `notWorthFloating` logic in GHc.Core.Opt.SetLevels.
I can't remember if I actually changed any behaviour here, but if so it's
only in a corner cases.
* Fixed a bug in `GHC.Core.TyCon.isEnumerationTyCon`, which was wrongly returning
True for (##).
* Remove redundant Role argument to `liftCoSubstWithEx`. It was always
Representational.
* I refactored evidence generation in the constraint solver:
* Made GHC.Tc.Types.Evidence contain better abstactions for evidence
generation.
* I deleted the file `GHC.Tc.Types.EvTerm` and merged its (small) contents
elsewhere. It wasn't paying its way.
* Made evidence for implicit parameters go via a proper abstraction.
* Fix inlineBoringOk; see (IB6) in Note [inlineBoringOk]
This fixes a slowdown in `countdownEffectfulDynLocal`
in the `effectful` library.
Smaller things
* Rename `isDataTyCon` to `isBoxedDataTyCon`.
* GHC.Core.Corecion.liftCoSubstWithEx was only called with Representational role,
so I baked that into the function and removed the argument.
* Get rid of `GHC.Core.TyCon.tyConSingleAlgDataCon_maybe` in favour of calling
`not isNewTyCon` at the call sites; more explicit.
* Refatored `GHC.Core.TyCon.isInjectiveTyCon`; but I don't think I changed its
behaviour
* Moved `decomposeIPPred` to GHC.Core.Predicate

geo. mean +0.1%

hadrian: enforce have_llvm=False for wasm32/js
This patch fixes hadrian to always pass have_llvm=False to the
testsuite driver for wasm32/js targets. These targets don't really
support the LLVM backend, and the optllvm test way doesn't work. We
used to special-case wasm32/js to avoid auto-adding optllvm way in
testsuite/config/ghc, but this is still problematic if someone writes
a new LLVM-related test and uses something like when(have_llvm(),
extra_ways(["optllvm"])). So better just enforce have_llvm=False for
these targets here.
