Simon Peyton Jones pushed to branch wip/26737 at Glasgow Haskell Compiler / GHC Commits: c56567ec by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-01-15T23:19:04+00:00 Add evals for strict data-con args in worker-functions This fixes #26722, by adding an eval in a worker for arguments of strict data constructors, even if the function body uses them strictly. See (WIS1) in Note [Which Ids should be strictified] I took the opportunity to make substantial improvements in the documentation for call-by-value functions. See especially Note [CBV Function Ids: overview] in GHC.Types.Id.Info Note [Which Ids should be CBV candidates?] ditto Note [EPT enforcement] in GHC.Stg.EnforceEpt among others. - - - - - 9719ce5d by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-01-15T23:19:04+00:00 Improve `interestingArg` This function analyses a function's argument to see if it is interesting enough to deserve an inlining discount. Improvements for * LitRubbish arguments * exprIsExpandable arguments See Note [Interesting arguments] which is substantially rewritten. - - - - - 7b616b9f by Cheng Shao at 2026-01-16T06:45:00-05:00 compiler: fix regression when compiling foreign stubs in the rts unit This patch fixes a regression when compiling foreign stubs in the rts unit introduced in 05e25647f72bc102061af3f20478aa72bff6ff6e. A simple revert would fix it, but it's better to implement a proper fix with comment for better understanding of the underlying problem, see the added comment for explanation.

See Note [IP: implicit parameter class] in ghc-internal:GHC.Internal.Classes.IP In fact, IP is (unfortunately, currently) exposed by base:GHC.Base, so we ran a quick CLC proposal to agree the change: https://github.com/haskell/core-libraries-committee/issues/385 Some (small) compilations get faster because they only need to load (small) interface file GHC.Internal.Classes.IP.hi, rather than (large) GHC.Internal.Classes.hi.
