Preserve user-written kinds in data declarations
This commit ensures that we preserve the user-written kind for data
declarations, e.g. in
type T2T = Type -> Type
type D :: T2T
data D a where { .. }
that we preserve the user-written kind of D as 'T2T', instead of
expanding the type synonym 'T2T' during kind checking.
We do this by storing 'tyConKind' separately from 'tyConResKind'. This
means that 'tyConKind' is not necessarily equal to
'mkTyConKind binders res_kind', as e.g. in the above example the former
is 'T2T' while the latter is 'Type -> Type'.
This is explained in Note [Preserve user-written TyCon kind] in GHC.Core.TyCon.
This is particularly important for Haddock, as the kinds stored in
interface files affect the generated documentation, and we want to
preserve the user-written types as much as possible.

Store user-written datacon tvs in interface files
This commit ensures we store the user-written quantified type variables
of data constructors in interface files, e.g. in
data D a where
MkD1 :: forall x. x -> D x
MkD2 :: forall u v. u -> v -> D v
The previous behaviour was to rename the universal variables to match
the universal variables of the data constructor. This was undesirable
because the names that end up in interface files end up mattering for
generated Haddock documentation; it's better to preserve the user-written
type variables.
Moreover, the universal variables may not have been user-written at all,
e.g. in an example such as:
type T2T = Type -> Type
data G :: T2T where
MkG :: forall x. D x
Here GHC will invent the type variable name 'a' for the first binder of
the TyCon G. We really don't want to then rename the user-written 'x'
into the generated 'a'.

DataCon univ_tvs names: pick TyCon over inferred
This commit changes how we compute the names of universal type variables
in GADT data constructors. This augments the existing logic that chose
which type variable name to use, in GHC.Tc.TyCl.mkGADTVars. We continue
to prefer DataCon tv names for user-written binders, but we now prefer
TyCon tv names for inferred (non-user-written) DataCon binders.
This makes a difference in examples such as:
type (:~~:) :: k1 -> k2 -> Type
data a :~~: b where
HRefl :: a :~~: a
Before this patch, we ended up giving HRefl the type:
forall {k2}. forall (a :: k2). a :~~: a
whereas we now give it the type:
forall {k1}. forall (a :: k1). a :~~: a
The important part isn't really 'k1' or 'k2', but more that the inferred
type variable names of the DataCon can be arbitrary/unpredictable (as
they are chosen by GHC and depend on how unification proceeds), so it's
much better to use the more predictable TyCon type variable names.

Backpack Rename: use explicit record construction
This commit updates the Backpack boilerplate in GHC.Iface.Rename to
use explicit record construction rather than record update. This makes
sure that the code stays up to date when the underlying constructors
change (e.g. new fields are added). The rationale is further explained
in Note [Prefer explicit record construction].

Store # eta binders in TyCon and use for Haddock
This commit stores the number of TyCon binders that were introduced by
eta-expansion (by the function GHC.Tc.Gen.HsType.splitTyConKind).
This is then used to pretty-print the TyCon as the user wrote it, e.g.
for
type Effect :: (Type -> Type) -> Type -> Type
data State s :: Effect where {..} -- arity 3
GHC will eta-expand the data declaration to
data State s a b where {..}
but also store in the 'TyCon' that the number of binders introduced by
this eta expansion is 2. This allows us, in
'Haddock.Convert.synifyTyConKindSig', to recover the original user-written
syntax, preserving the user's intent in Haddock documentation.
See Note [Inline kind signatures with GADTSyntax] in Haddock.Convert.

LLVM backend: Pass the +evex512 attribute to LLVM 18+ if -mavx512f is set
The newer LLVM requires the +evex512 attribute to enable use of ZMM registers.
LLVM exhibits a backward-compatible behavior if the cpu is `x86-64`, but not if `penryn`.
Therefore, on macOS, where the cpu is set to `penryn`, we need to explicitly pass +evex512.

localRegistersConflict: account for assignment LHS
This commit fixes a serious oversight in GHC.Cmm.Sink.conflicts,
specifically the code that computes which local registers conflict
between an assignment and a Cmm statement.
If we have:
assignment: <local_reg> = <expr>
node: <local_reg> = <other_expr>
then clearly the two conflict, because we cannot move one statement past
the other, as they assign two different values to the same local
register. (Recall that 'conflicts (local_reg,expr) node' is False if and
only if the assignment 'local_reg = expr' can be safely commuted past
the statement 'node'.)
The fix is to update 'GHC.Cmm.Sink.localRegistersConflict' to take into
account the following two situations:
(1) 'node' defines the LHS local register of the assignment,
(2) 'node' defines a local register used in the RHS of the assignment.
The bug is precisely that we were previously missing condition (1).

Update assigned register format when spilling
When we come to spilling a register to put new data into it, in
GHC.CmmToAsm.Reg.Linear.allocRegsAndSpill_spill, we need to:
1. Spill the data currently in the register. That is, do a spill
with a format that matches what's currently in the register.
2. Update the register assignment, allocating a virtual register to
this real register, but crucially **updating the format** of this
assignment.
Due to shadowing in the Haskell code for allocRegsAndSpill_spill, we
were mistakenly re-using the old format. This could lead to a situation
where:
a. We were using xmm6 to store a Double#.
b. We want to store a DoubleX2# into xmm6, so we spill the current
content of xmm6 to the stack using a scalar move (correct).
c. We update the register assignment, but we fail to update the format
of the assignment, so we continue to think that xmm6 stores a
Double# and not a DoubleX2#.
d. Later on, we need to spill xmm6 because it is getting clobbered by
another instruction. We then decide to only spill the lower 64 bits
of the register, because we still think that xmm6 only stores a
Double# and not a DoubleX2#.

Make TYPE and CONSTRAINT not-apart
Issue #24279 showed up a bug in the logic in GHC.Core.Unify.unify_ty
which is supposed to make TYPE and CONSTRAINT be not-apart.
* Then !10479 implemented "unary classes".
* That change in turn allows us to make Type and Constraint apart again,
cleaning up the compiler and allowing a little bit more expressiveness.
It fixes the original hope in #24279, namely that `Type` and `Constraint`
should be distinct throughout.

JS: support more than 128 registers (#26558)
The JS backend only supported 128 registers (JS variables/array slots
used to pass function arguments). It failed in T26537 when 129
registers were required.
This commit adds support for more than 128 registers: it is now limited to
maxBound :: Int (compiler's Int). If we ever go above this threshold the
compiler now panics with a more descriptive message.
A few built-in JS functions were assuming 128 registers and have been
rewritten to use loops. Note that loops are only used for "high"
registers that are stored in an array: the 31 "low" registers are still
handled with JS global variables and with explicit switch-cases to
maintain good performance in the most common cases (i.e. few registers
used). Adjusting the number of low registers is now easy: just one
constant to adjust (GHC.StgToJS.Regs.lowRegsCount).
No new test added: T26537 is used as a regression test instead.

SimpleOpt: refactor & push coercions into lambdas
This commit improves the simple optimiser (in GHC.Core.SimpleOpt)
in a couple of ways:
- The logic to push coercion lambdas is shored up.
The function 'pushCoercionIntoLambda' used to be called in 'finish_app',
but this meant we could not continue to optimise the program after
performing this transformation.
Now, we call 'pushCoercionIntoLambda' as part of 'simple_app'.
Doing so can be important when dealing with unlifted newtypes,
as explained in Note [Desugaring unlifted newtypes].
- The code is re-structured to avoid duplication and out-of-sync
code paths.
Now, 'simple_opt_expr' defers to 'simple_app' for the 'App', 'Var',
'Cast' and 'Lam' cases. This means all the logic for those is
centralised in a single place (e.g. the 'go_lam' helper function).
To do this, the general structure is brought a bit closer to the
full-blown simplifier, with a notion of 'continuation'
(see 'SimpleContItem').
This commit also modifies GHC.Core.Opt.Arity.pushCoercionIntoLambda to
apply a substitution (a slight generalisation of its existing implementation).

Improve typechecking of data constructors
This commit changes the way in which we perform typecheck data
constructors, in particular how we make multiplicities line up.
Now, impedance matching occurs as part of the existing subsumption
machinery. See the revamped Note [Typechecking data constructors] in
GHC.Tc.Gen.App, as well as Note [Polymorphisation of linear fields]
in GHC.Core.Multiplicity.
This allows us to get rid of a fair amount of hacky code that was
added with the introduction of LinearTypes; in particular the logic of
GHC.Tc.Gen.Head.tcInferDataCon.

data PmAltConSet = PACS !(UniqDSet ConLike) ![PmLit]
to
data PmAltConSet = PACS !(UniqDSet ConLike) !(Map PmLit PmLit)
This matters when doing pattern-match overlap checking, when there
is a very large set of patterns. For most programs it makes
no difference at all.
For the N=5000 case of the repro case in #26514, compiler
mutator time (with `-fno-code`) goes from 1.9s to 0.43s.

mkCast: weaken bad cast warning for multiplicity
This commit weakens the warning message emitted when constructing a bad
cast in mkCast to ignore multiplicity.
Justification: since b33284c7, GHC uses sub-multiplicity coercions to
typecheck data constructors. The coercion optimiser is free to discard
these coercions, both for performance reasons, and because GHC's Core
simplifier does not (yet) preserve linearity.
We thus weaken 'mkCast' to use 'eqTypeIgnoringMultiplicity' instead of
'eqType', to avoid getting many spurious warnings about mismatched
multiplicities.

rts: Fix a deadlock with eventlog flush interval and RTS shutdown
The ghc_ticker thread attempts to flush at the eventlog tick interval, this requires
waiting to take all capabilities.
At the same time, the main thread is shutting down, the schedule is

Therefore we are deadlocked.
The solution is to use `newBoundTask/exitMyTask`, so that flushing can
cooperate with the scheduler shutdown.

SimpleOpt: don't subst in pushCoercionIntoLambda
It was noticed in #26589 that the change in 15b311be was incorrect:
the simple optimiser carries two different substitution-like pieces of
information: 'soe_subst' (from InVar to OutExpr) and 'soe_inl'
(from InId to InExpr). It is thus incorrect to have 'pushCoercionIntoLambda'
apply the substitution from 'soe_subst' while discarding 'soe_inl'
entirely, which is what was done in 15b311be.
Instead, we change back pushCoercionIntoLambda to take an InScopeSet,
and optimise the lambda before calling 'pushCoercionIntoLambda' to avoid
mixing InExpr with OutExpr, or mixing two InExpr with different
environments. We can then call 'soeZapSubst' without problems.

This part of the compiler is quite hot during recompilation checking in
particular since the filepaths will be translated to a string. It is
better to use the 'OsPath' native function, which turns out to be easy
to do.

Namespace-specified wildcards in import/export lists (#25901)
This change adds support for top-level namespace-specified wildcards
`type ..` and `data ..` to import and export lists.
Examples:
import M (type ..) -- imports all type and class constructors from M
import M (data ..) -- imports all data constructors and terms from M
module M (type .., f) where
-- exports all type and class constructors defined in M,
-- plus the function 'f'
The primary intended usage of this feature is in combination with module
aliases, allowing namespace disambiguation:
import Data.Proxy as T (type ..) -- T.Proxy is unambiguously the type constructor
import Data.Proxy as D (data ..) -- D.Proxy is unambiguously the data constructor
The patch accounts for the interactions of wildcards with:
* Imports with `hiding` clauses
* Import warnings -Wunused-imports, -Wdodgy-imports
* Export warnings -Wduplicate-exports, -Wdodgy-exports
Summary of the changes:
1. Move the NamespaceSpecifier type from GHC.Hs.Binds to GHC.Hs.Basic,
making it possible to use it in more places in the AST.
2. Extend the AST (type: IE) with a representation of `..`, `type ..`,
and `data ..` (constructor: IEWholeNamespace). Per the proposal, the
plain `..` is always rejected with a dedicated error message.
3. Extend the grammar in Parser.y with productions for `..`, `type ..`,
and `data ..` in both import and export lists.
4. Implement wildcard imports by updating the `filterImports` function
in GHC.Rename.Names; the logic for IEWholeNamespace is roughly
modeled after the Nothing (no explicit import list) case.
5. Implement wildcard exports by updating the `exports_from_avail`
function in GHC.Tc.Gen.Export; the logic for IEWholeNamespace is
closely modeled after the IEModuleContents case.
6. Refactor and extend diagnostics to report the new warnings and
errors. See PsErrPlainWildcardImport, DodgyImportsWildcard,
PsErrPlainWildcardExport, DodgyExportsWildcard,
TcRnDupeWildcardExport.
Note that this patch is specifically about top-level import/export
items. Subordinate import/export items are left unchanged.

rts: Handle overflow of ELF section header string table
If the section header string table is stored in a section greater
than or equal to SHN_LORESERVE (0xff00), the 16-bit field e_shstrndx
in the ELF header does not contain the section number, but rather
an overflow value SHN_XINDEX (0xffff) indicating that we need to look
elsewhere.
This fixes the linker by not using e_shstrndx directly but calling
elf_shstrndx, which correctly handles the SHN_XINDEX value.
Fixes #26603

Re CLC issue 292 Warn GHC.Internal.List.{init,last} are partial
Also corrects the warning for `tail` to refer to `Data.List.uncons` (like the existing warning for `head`).
In module `Settings.Warnings`, applies `-Wno-x-partial` to the `filepath`, and `parsec` packages (outside GHC's repository).
Also bumps submodules.

Renamer: reinstate the template haskell level check in notFound
Out-of-scope names might be caused by a staging error, as is explained by
Note [Out of scope might be a staging error] in GHC.Tc.Utils.Env.hs.
This logic was assumed to be dead code after 217caad1 and has thus been
removed. This commit reintroduces it and thus fixes issue #26099.

devx: minor fixes for compile_flags.txt
This patch includes minor fixes for compile_flags.txt to improve
developer experience when using clangd as language server to hack on
RTS C sources:
- Ensure `-fPIC` is passed and `__PIC__` is defined, to be coherent
with `-DDYNAMIC` and ensure the `__PIC__` guarded code paths are
indexed
- Add the missing `-DRtsWay` definition, otherwise a few source files
like `RtsUtils.c` and `Trace.c` would produce clangd errors

hadrian: Use a response file to invoke GHC for dep gathering.
In some cases we construct an argument list too long for GHC to
handle directly on windows. This happens when we generate
the dependency file because the command line will contain
references to a large number of .hs files.
To avoid this we now invoke GHC using a response file when
generating dependencies to sidestep length limitations.
Note that we only pass the actual file names in the dependency
file. Why? Because this side-steps #26560
