Matthew Pickering pushed to branch wip/bytecode-determinism at Glasgow Haskell Compiler / GHC Commits: ce2d62fb by Jessica Clarke at 2026-01-29T19:48:51-05:00 PPC NCG: Use libcall for 64-bit cmpxchg on 32-bit PowerPC There is no native instruction for this, and even if there were a register pair version we could use, the implementation here is assuming the values fit in a single register, and we end up only using / defining the low halves of the registers.

A TypeMap is quite diligent to use deterministic maps, apart from in the TyLitMap, which uses a UniqFM for storing strings, whose ordering depends on the Unique of the FastString. This can cause non-deterministic .hi and .o files. An unexpected side-effect is the error message but RecordDotSyntaxFail8 changing. I looked into this with Sam and this change caused the constraints to be solved in a different order which results in a slightly different error message. I have accepted the new test, since the output before was non-deterministic and the new output is consistent with the other messages in that file.

Related function definitions are also moved. Types moved to L.H.S. because they are part of the AST: * TopLevelFlag * RuleName Types moved from L.H.S. to GHC.Hs. because they are not needed in the AST: * TyConFlavour * TypeOrData * NewOrData Migrated instances: * `Outputable` instances moved to in `GHC.Utils.Outputable` * `Binary` instance of `Boxity` moved to to `GHC.Utils.Binary` * Other `Binary` instances are orphans to be migrated later. The `OverlapMode` data-type is given a TTG extension point. The `OverlapFlag` data-type, which depends on `OverlapMode`, is updated to support `OverlapMode` with a GHC "pass" type paramerter. In order to avoid module import cycles, `OverlapMode` and `OverlapFlag` are migrated to new modules (no way around this). * Migrated `OverlapMode` to new module `Language.Haskell.Syntax.Overlap` * Migrated `OverlapFlag` to new module `GHC.Hs.Decls.Overlap` - - - - - 9769cc03 by Simon Hengel at 2026-02-01T04:21:03-05:00 Update the documentation for MultiWayIf (fixes #25376) (so that it matches the implementation) - - - - - 5fc9442a by Peter Trommler at 2026-02-01T04:21:44-05:00 hadrian: Fix dependency generation for assembler Assembler files allow # for comments unless in column 1.

Now we use HsString for both kinds of literals. One user-facing change here is `ppr (HsString st s)` behaving differently for single-line strings containing newlines: x = "first line \ \asdf\n\ \second line" Previously, the literal was fed to `ftext` with its newlines, producing an ill-formed SDoc. This issue is now addressed by using `split` for both single-line and multi-line strings: vcat $ map text $ split '\n' (unpackFS src) See the parser/should_fail/T26860ppr test. In addition (and unrelatedly to the main payload of this patch), drop the unused pmPprHsLit helper. - - - - - 2b4f463c by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-02-02T17:32:32+00:00 Remove exprIsCheap from doFloatFromRhs See #26854 and Note [Float when expandable] This patch simplifies the code, by removing an extra unnecessary test. - - - - - 9db7f21f by Brandon Chinn at 2026-02-03T09:15:10-05:00 Refactor: make function patterns exhaustive Also added missing (==) logic for: * HsMultilineString * HsInt{8,16,32} * HsWord{8,16,32} - - - - - aa9c5e2c by Hécate Kleidukos at 2026-02-03T15:58:35-05:00 driver: Hide source paths at verbosity level 1 by default - - - - - c64cca1e by mangoiv at 2026-02-03T15:59:29-05:00 ExplicitLevelImports: check staging for types just like for values Previously, imported types were entirely exempted from staging checks as the implicit stage persistance assumed to be all imported types to be well staged. ExplicitLevelImports' change specification, however, does not do such an exemption. Thus we want to introduce such a check, just like we have for values. ExplicitLevelImports does not, however, talk about local names - from its perspective, we could theoretically keep treating locally introduced types specially - e.g. an ill-staged used in a quote would only emit a warning, not an error. To allow for a potential future migration away from such wrinkles as the staging check in notFound (see Note [Out of scope might be a staging error]) we consistently do the strict staging check that we also do for value if ExplicitLevelImports is on.

This patch fixes the interaction. It was shown up when validating #26772, although it's not the exactly the bug that's reported by #26772. Nor is it easy to reproduce, hence no regression test. - - - - - fac0de1e by Cheng Shao at 2026-02-05T04:31:49-05:00 libraries: bump Cabal submodule to 3.16.1.0 - - - - - 00589122 by Cheng Shao at 2026-02-05T04:31:49-05:00 libraries: bump deepseq submodule to 1.5.2.0 Also: - Get rid of usage of deprecated `NFData` function instance in the compiler - `T21391` still relies on `NFData` function instance, add `-Wno-deprecations` for the time being. - - - - - 84474c71 by Cheng Shao at 2026-02-05T04:31:50-05:00 libraries: bump directory submodule to 1.3.10.1 - - - - - 1a9f4662 by Cheng Shao at 2026-02-05T04:31:50-05:00 libraries: bump exceptions submodule to 0.10.12 - - - - - 651bcb2b by Matthew Pickering at 2026-02-09T16:24:46+00:00 determinism: Use a deterministic renaming when writing bytecode files Now when writing the bytecode file, a counter and substitution are used to provide deterministic keys to local variables (rather than relying on uniques).
