We know the result is always Type-like, so we don't need scaledFunTys to try to rediscover that from the kind.

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.

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. Fixes #26151.

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).

In that case, instead of looking up the constructors in the GlobalRdrEnv, directly look up their GREInfo using the lookupGREInfo function.

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.

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?

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.

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.

This commit makes `error` and `throw` behave the same with regard to backtraces. Previously, exceptions raised by `error` would not contain useful IPE backtraces.

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.

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.

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.

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`.
