Andreas Klebinger pushed to branch wip/andreask/split-driver-main at Glasgow Haskell Compiler / GHC Commits: 28f07d70 by fendor at 2026-04-28T13:24:12-04:00 Make HPC work with bytecode interpreter Add support to generate .tix files from bytecode objects and the bytecode interpreter. Conceptually, we insert HPC ticks into the bytecode similar to how we insert breakpoints. HPC and breakpoints do not share the same tick array but we use a separate tick-array for hpc/breakpoint ticks during bytecode generation. We teach the bytecode interpreter to handle hpc ticks. The implementation is quite trivial, simply increment the counter in the global hpc_ticks array for the respective module. This hpc_ticks array is generated as part of the `CStub`, so we can rely on it existing. A tricky bit is "registering" a bytecode object for HPC instrumentation. In the compiled case, this is achieved via CStub and initializer/finalizers `.init` sections which are called when the executable is run. After the initializers have been invoked, which is before `hs_init_ghc`, we then call `startup_hpc` in `hs_init_ghc` iff any modules were "registered" for hpc instrumentation via `hs_hpc_module`. Since bytecode objects are loaded after starting up GHCi, this workflow doesn't work for supporting `hpc` and the `hpc` run-time is never started, even if a module is added for instrumentation. We fix this issue by employing the same technique as is for `SptEntry`s: * We introduce a new field to `CompiledByteCode`, called `ByteCodeHpcInfo` which contains enough information to call `hs_hpc_module`, allowing us to register the module for `hpc` instrumentation`. * After registering the module, we unconditionally call `startupHpc`, to make sure the .tix file is written. Calling `startupHpc` multiple times is safe. Calling `hs_hpc_module` multiple times for the same module is also safe. If we didn't register the hpc module in this way, evaluating a bytecode object instrumented with `-fhpc` without registering it in the `hpc` run-time will simply not generate any `.tix` files for this bytecode object. However, this shouldn't happen if everything is set up correctly.

Summary of changes: * Move NamespaceSpecifier from GHC/Hs/Basic.hs to Language/Haskell/Syntax/ImpExp.hs and parameterise it by the compiler pass, creating the necessary extension points * Move NamespaceSpecifier out of XFixitySig into FixitySig * Move NamespaceSpecifier out of XIEThingAll (IEThingAllExt) into IEThingAll * Move NamespaceSpecifier out of XIEWholeNamespace (IEWholeNamespaceExt) into IEWholeNamespace This is a pure refactoring with no change in behaviour. - - - - - 9797052b by Simon Peyton Jones at 2026-04-28T13:25:37-04:00 Fix assertion check in checkResultTy As #27210 shows, the assertion was a little bit too eager. I refactored a bit by moving some code from GHC.Tc.Gen.App to GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify; see the new function tcSubTypeApp, which replaces tcSubTypeDS - - - - - 81f768e4 by Andreas Klebinger at 2026-04-29T08:36:46+02:00 Split GHC.Driver.Main.hs up into multiple components. This commit splits GHC.Driver.Main into four components: * GHC.Driver.Main.Compile * GHC.Driver.Main.Hsc * GHC.Driver.Main.Interactive * GHC.Driver.Main.Passes We might improve that separation further in the future but this should hopefully make it easier to reason about and work with this part of the code. - - - - - 102 changed files: - + changelog.d/bytecode-interpreter-hpc-support - + changelog.d/ghc-api-namespace-specifier-26678 - compiler/GHC/ByteCode/Asm.hs - compiler/GHC/ByteCode/Binary.hs - compiler/GHC/ByteCode/Instr.hs - compiler/GHC/ByteCode/Types.hs - compiler/GHC/Driver/Backend.hs - compiler/GHC/Driver/Backpack.hs - compiler/GHC/Driver/CodeOutput.hs - compiler/GHC/Driver/Env/Types.hs - compiler/GHC/Driver/Main.hs - + compiler/GHC/Driver/Main/Compile.hs - compiler/GHC/Driver/Main.hs-boot → compiler/GHC/Driver/Main/Compile.hs-boot - + compiler/GHC/Driver/Main/Hsc.hs - + compiler/GHC/Driver/Main/Interactive.hs - + compiler/GHC/Driver/Main/Passes.hs - + compiler/GHC/Driver/Main/Passes.hs-boot - compiler/GHC/Driver/Session.hs - compiler/GHC/Hs/Basic.hs - compiler/GHC/Hs/Binds.hs - compiler/GHC/Hs/Decls.hs - compiler/GHC/Hs/ImpExp.hs - compiler/GHC/HsToCore.hs - compiler/GHC/HsToCore/Coverage.hs - compiler/GHC/HsToCore/Docs.hs - compiler/GHC/HsToCore/Quote.hs - compiler/GHC/HsToCore/Ticks.hs - compiler/GHC/Iface/Ext/Ast.hs - compiler/GHC/Iface/Load.hs - compiler/GHC/Iface/Tidy.hs - compiler/GHC/Linker/Loader.hs - compiler/GHC/Parser.y - compiler/GHC/Parser/PostProcess.hs - compiler/GHC/Parser/PostProcess/Haddock.hs - compiler/GHC/Rename/Bind.hs - compiler/GHC/Rename/Env.hs - compiler/GHC/Rename/Module.hs - compiler/GHC/Rename/Names.hs - compiler/GHC/Runtime/Interpreter.hs - compiler/GHC/StgToByteCode.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Errors/Ppr.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Errors/Types.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Gen/App.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Gen/Export.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Gen/Head.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Utils/Unify.hs - compiler/GHC/ThToHs.hs - compiler/GHC/Types/Error.hs - compiler/GHC/Types/Error.hs-boot - compiler/GHC/Types/HpcInfo.hs - compiler/GHC/Types/Name/Reader.hs - compiler/GHC/Unit/Module/ModGuts.hs - compiler/Language/Haskell/Syntax/Binds.hs - compiler/Language/Haskell/Syntax/Decls.hs - compiler/Language/Haskell/Syntax/Extension.hs - compiler/Language/Haskell/Syntax/ImpExp.hs - compiler/ghc.cabal.in - + libraries/ghci/GHCi/Coverage.hs - libraries/ghci/GHCi/Message.hs - libraries/ghci/GHCi/Run.hs - libraries/ghci/ghci.cabal.in - rts/Disassembler.c - rts/Hpc.c - rts/Interpreter.c - rts/include/rts/Bytecodes.h - testsuite/tests/haddock/should_compile_flag_haddock/T17544_kw.stderr - testsuite/tests/hpc/Makefile - testsuite/tests/hpc/T17073.stdout → testsuite/tests/hpc/T17073a.stdout - + testsuite/tests/hpc/T17073b.stdout - testsuite/tests/hpc/T20568.stdout → testsuite/tests/hpc/T20568a.stdout - + testsuite/tests/hpc/T20568b.stdout - testsuite/tests/hpc/all.T - testsuite/tests/hpc/fork/Makefile - testsuite/tests/hpc/function/Makefile - testsuite/tests/hpc/function/test.T - + testsuite/tests/hpc/function/tough1.stderr - + testsuite/tests/hpc/function/tough1.stdout - testsuite/tests/hpc/function2/test.T - + testsuite/tests/hpc/function2/tough3.script - + testsuite/tests/hpc/ghc_ghci/BytecodeMain.hs - testsuite/tests/hpc/ghc_ghci/Makefile - + testsuite/tests/hpc/ghc_ghci/hpc_ghc_ghci_bytecode.stdout - + testsuite/tests/hpc/ghc_ghci/hpc_ghci01.stdout - + testsuite/tests/hpc/ghc_ghci/hpc_ghci02.stdout - testsuite/tests/hpc/ghc_ghci/test.T - testsuite/tests/hpc/simple/Makefile - + testsuite/tests/hpc/simple/hpc002.hs - + testsuite/tests/hpc/simple/hpc002.stdout - + testsuite/tests/hpc/simple/hpc003.hs - + testsuite/tests/hpc/simple/hpc003.script - + testsuite/tests/hpc/simple/hpc003.stdout - testsuite/tests/hpc/simple/test.T - testsuite/tests/linters/notes.stdout - testsuite/tests/parser/should_compile/T20846.stderr - + testsuite/tests/typecheck/should_fail/T27210.hs - + testsuite/tests/typecheck/should_fail/T27210.stderr - testsuite/tests/typecheck/should_fail/all.T - utils/check-exact/ExactPrint.hs - utils/haddock/haddock-api/src/Haddock/Backends/Hoogle.hs - utils/haddock/haddock-api/src/Haddock/GhcUtils.hs - utils/haddock/haddock-api/src/Haddock/Interface/Rename.hs - utils/haddock/haddock-api/src/Haddock/Types.hs The diff was not included because it is too large.
