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.

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.

Use tcMkScaledFunTys in matchExpectedFunTys
We should use tcMkScaledFunTys rather than mkScaledFunTys in
GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify.matchExpectedFunTys, as the latter crashes
when the kind of the result type is a bare metavariable.
We know the result is always Type-like, so we don't need scaledFunTys
to try to rediscover that from the kind.

rts: Fix lost wakeups in threadPaused for threads blocked on black holes
The lazy blackholing code in threadPaused could overwrite closures
that were already eagerly blackholed, and as such wouldn't have a
marked update frame. If the black hole was overwritten by its
original owner, this would lead to an undetected collision, and
the contents of any existing blocking queue being lost.
This adds a check for eagerly blackholed closures and avoids
overwriting their contents.

rts/posix: Hold on to low reservations when reserving heap
Previously when the OS gave us an address space reservation in low
memory we would immediately release it and try again. However, on some
platforms this meant that we would get the same allocation again in the
next iteration (since mmap's `hint` argument is just that, a hint).
Instead we now hold on to low reservations until we have found a
suitable heap reservation.

testsuite: fix T3586 for non-SSE3 platforms
`T3586.hs` contains `-fvia-C -optc-msse3` which I think is a
best-effort basis to harvest the C compiler's auto vectorization
optimizations via the C backend back when the test was added. The
`-fvia-C` part is now a deprecated no-op because GHC can't fall back
to the C backend on a non-unregisterised build, and `-optc-msse3`
might actually cause the test to fail on non x86/x64 platforms, e.g.
recent builds of wasi-sdk would report `wasm32-wasi-clang: error:
unsupported option '-msse3' for target 'wasm32-unknown-wasi'`.
So this patch cleans up this historical cruft. `-fvia-C` is removed,
and `-optc-msse3` is only passed when cpuid contains `pni` (which
indicates support of SSE3).

captures the Haskell name of the BCO. It is then printed by the
disassembler, allowing ready correlation with STG dumps.

Bad record update msg: allow out-of-scope datacons
This commit ensures that, when we encounter an invalid record update
(because no constructor exists which contains all of the record fields
mentioned in the record update), we graciously handle the situation in
which the constructors themselves are not in scope. In that case,
instead of looking up the constructors in the GlobalRdrEnv, directly
look up their GREInfo using the lookupGREInfo function.

Add -mcmodel=medium moduleflag to generated LLVM IR on LoongArch platform
With the Medium code model, the jump range of the generated jump
instruction is larger than that of the Small code model. It's a
temporary fix of the problem descriped in https://gitlab.haskell
.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/25495. This commit requires that the LLVM
used contains the code of commit 9dd1d451d9719aa91b3bdd59c0c6679
83e1baf05, i.e., version 8.0 and later. Actually we should not
rely on LLVM, so the only way to solve this problem is to implement
the LoongArch backend.

rts: fix eager black holes: record mutated closure and fix assertion
This fixes two problems with handling eager black holes, introduced
by a1de535f762bc23d4cf23a5b1853591dda12cdc9.
- the closure mutation must be recorded even for eager black holes,
since the mutator has mutated it before calling threadPaused
- The assertion that an unmarked eager black hole must be owned by
the TSO calling threadPaused is incorrect, since multiple threads
can race to claim the black hole.

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.

hadrian: Use a response file to invoke GHC for dep gathering.
In some cases we construct an argument list too long for GHC to

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

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
stopped and then we wait for the ticker thread to finish.
Therefore we are deadlocked.
The solution is to use `newBoundTask/exitMyTask`, so that flushing can
cooperate with the scheduler shutdown.

rts: Fix object file format detection in loadArchive
Commit 76d1041dfa4b96108cfdd22b07f2b3feb424dcbe seems to
have introduced this bug, ultimately leading to failure of
test T11788. I can only theorize that this test isn't run
in upstream's CI, because they don't build a static GHC.
The culprit is that we go through the thin archive, trying
to follow the members on the filesystem, but don't
re-identify the new object format of the member. This pins
`object_fmt` to `NotObject` from the thin archive.
Thanks to @angerman for spotting this.

Evaluate backtraces for "error" exceptions at the moment they are thrown
See Note [Capturing the backtrace in throw] and
Note [Hiding precise exception signature in throw] which explain the
implementation.
This commit makes `error` and `throw` behave the same with regard to
backtraces. Previously, exceptions raised by `error` would not contain
useful IPE backtraces.
I did try and implement `error` in terms of `throw` but it started to
involve putting diverging functions into hs-boot files, which seemed to
risky if the compiler wouldn't be able to see if applying a function
would diverge.

Don't re-use stack slots for growing registers
This commit avoids re-using a stack slot for a register that has grown
but already had a stack slot.
For example, suppose we have stack slot assigments
%v1 :: FF64 |-> StackSlot 0
%v2 :: FF64 |-> StackSlot 1
Later, we start using %v1 at a larger format (e.g. F64x2) and we need
to spill it again. Then we **must not** use StackSlot 0, as a spill
at format F64x2 would clobber the data in StackSlot 1.
This can cause some fragmentation of the `StackMap`, but that's probably
OK.
Fixes #26668

llvm: fix split sections for llvm backend
This patch fixes split sections for llvm backend:
- Pass missing `--data-sections`/`--function-sections` flags to
llc/opt.
- Use `@llvm.compiler.used` instead of `@llvm.used` to avoid sections
being unnecessarily retained at link-time.
Fixes #26770.

testsuite: avoid re.sub in favor of simple string replacements
This patch refactors the testsuite driver and avoids the usage of
re.sub in favor of simple string replacements when possible. The
changes are not comprehensive, and there are still a lot of re.sub
usages lingering around the tree, but this already addresses a major
performance bottleneck in the testsuite driver that might has to do
with quadratic or worse slowdown in cpython's regular expression
engine when handling certain regex patterns with large strings.
Especially on i386, and i386 jobs are the bottlenecks of all full-ci
validate pipelines!
Here are the elapsed times of testing x86_64/i386 with -j48 before
this patch:
x86_64: `Build completed in 6m06s`
i386: `Build completed in 1h36m`
And with this patch:
x86_64: `Build completed in 4m55s`
i386: `Build completed in 4m23s`
Fixes #26786.

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.

rts: Switch prim to use modern atomic compiler builtins
The __sync_*() atomic compiler builtins have been deprecated in GCC
for a while now and also don't provide variants for 64-bit values
such as __sync_fetch_and_add_8().
Thus, replace them with the modern __atomic_*() compiler builtins and
while we're at it, also drop the helper macro CAS_NAND() which is now
no longer needed since we stopped using the __sync_*() compiler builtins
altogether.

determinism: Use deterministic map for Strings in TyLitMap
When generating typeable evidence the types we need evidence for all
cached in a TypeMap, the order terms are retrieved from a type map
determines the order the bindings appear in the program.
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.

determinism: Use a stable sort in WithHsDocIdentifiers binary instance
`WithHsDocIdentifiers` is defined as
```
71 data WithHsDocIdentifiers a pass = WithHsDocIdentifiers
72 { hsDocString :: !a
73 , hsDocIdentifiers :: ![Located (IdP pass)]
74 }
```
This list of names is populated from `rnHsDocIdentifiers`, which calls
`lookupGRE`, which calls `lookupOccEnv_AllNameSpaces`, which calls
`nonDetEltsUFM` and returns the results in an order depending on
uniques.
Sorting the list with a stable sort before returning the interface makes
the output deterministic and follows the approach taken by other fields
in `Docs`.

NamedDefaults: require the class to be standard
We now only default type variables if they only appear in constraints
of the form `C v`, where `C` is either a standard class or a class with
an in-scope default declaration.
This rectifies an oversight in the original implementation of the
NamedDefault extensions that was remarked in #25775; that implementation
allowed type variables to appear in unary constraints which had arbitrary
classes at the head.
See the rewritten Note [How type-class constraints are defaulted] for
details of the implementation.
