Hannes Siebenhandl pushed to branch wip/fendor/remove-stg_stackDecode at Glasgow Haskell Compiler / GHC Commits: 246b7853 by Matthew Pickering at 2025-08-07T06:58:30-04:00 level imports: Check the level of exported identifiers The level imports specification states that exported identifiers have to be at level 0. This patch adds the requird level checks that all explicitly mentioned identifiers occur at level 0. For implicit export specifications (T(..) and module B), only level 0 identifiers are selected for re-export. ghc-proposal: https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/705 Fixes #26090 - - - - - 358bc4fc by fendor at 2025-08-07T06:59:12-04:00 Bump GHC on darwin CI to 9.10.1 - - - - - 1903ae35 by Matthew Pickering at 2025-08-07T12:21:10+01:00 ipe: Place strings and metadata into specific .ipe section By placing the .ipe metadata into a specific section it can be stripped from the final binary if desired. ``` objcopy --remove-section .ipe <binary> upx <binary> ``` Towards #21766 - - - - - c80dd91c by Matthew Pickering at 2025-08-07T12:22:42+01:00 ipe: Place magic word at the start of entries in the .ipe section The magic word "IPE\nIPE\n" is placed at the start of .ipe sections, then if the section is stripped, we can check whether the section starts with the magic word or not to determine whether there is metadata present or not. Towards #21766 - - - - - cab42666 by Matthew Pickering at 2025-08-07T12:22:42+01:00 ipe: Use stable IDs for IPE entries IPEs have historically been indexed and reported by their address. This makes it impossible to compare profiles between runs, since the addresses may change (due to ASLR) and also makes it tricky to separate out the IPE map from the binary. This small patch adds a stable identifier for each IPE entry. The stable identifier is a single 64 bit word. The high-bits are a per-module identifier and the low bits identify which entry in each module. 1. When a node is added into the IPE buffer it is assigned a unique identifier from an incrementing global counter. 2. Each entry already has an index by it's position in the `IpeBufferListNode`. The two are combined together by the `IPE_ENTRY_KEY` macro. Info table profiling uses the stable identifier rather than the address of the info table. The benefits of this change are: * Profiles from different runs can be easily compared * The metadata can be extracted from the binary (via the eventlog for example) and then stripped from the executable.

This behavior is undesireable in some cases and there is not really a good way to work around it. Especially for downstream packagers, modifying this via UserSettings is not really feasible since such a source file has to be kept in sync with Settings/Default.hs manually since it can't import Settings.Default or any predefined Flavour definitions. To avoid having to add a new setting to cfg/system.config and/or a new configure flag (though I'm happy to implement both if required), I've chosen to take --with-curses-* being set explicitly as an indication that the user wants to have terminfo enabled. This would work for Nixpkgs which sets these flags [1] as well as haskell.nix [2] (which goes to some extreme measures [3] [4] to force terminfo in all scenarios). In general, I'm an advocate for making the GHC build be the same for native and cross insofar it is possible since it makes packaging GHC and Haskell related things while still supporting cross much less compilicated. A more minimal GHC with reduced dependencies should probably be a specific flavor, not the default. Partially addresses #26288 by forcing terminfo to be built if the user explicitly passes configure flags related to it. However, it isn't built by default when cross-compiling yet nor is there an explicit way to control the package being built.

We want to use the stack decoding implementation from `ghc-heap` in `base`. We cannot simply depend on `ghc-heap` in `base` due do bootstrapping issues. Thus, we move the code that is necessary to implement stack decoding to `ghc-internal`. This is the right location, as we don't want to add a new API to `base`. Moving the stack decoding logic and re-exposing it in ghc-heap is insufficient, though, as we have a dependency cycle between. * ghc-heap depends on stage1:ghc-internal * stage0:ghc depends on stage0:ghc-heap To fix this, we remove ghc-heap from the set of `stage0` dependencies. This is not entirely straight-forward, as a couple of boot dependencies, such as `ghci` depend on `ghc-heap`. Luckily, the boot compiler of GHC is now >=9.10, so we can migrate `ghci` to use `ghc-internal` instead of `ghc-heap`, which already exports the relevant modules. However, we cannot 100% remove ghc's dependency on `ghc-heap`, since when we compile `stage0:ghc`, `stage1:ghc-internal` is not yet available. Thus, when we compile with the boot-compiler, we still depend on an older version of `ghc-heap`, and only use the modules from `ghc-internal`, if the `ghc-internal` version is recent enough. ------------------------- Metric Increase: size_hello_artifact size_hello_artifact_gzip size_hello_unicode size_hello_unicode_gzip ------------------------- These metric increases are unfortunate, they are most likely caused by the larger (literally in terms of lines of code) stack decoder implementation that are now linked into hello-word binaries. On linux, it is almost a 10% increase, which is considerable. - - - - - 4804c960 by fendor at 2025-08-12T08:53:59+00:00 Implement `decode` in terms of `decodeStackWithIpe` Uses the more efficient stack decoder implementation. - - - - - 5b283ebd by fendor at 2025-08-12T08:53:59+00:00 Remove stg_decodeStackzh - - - - - 4e0fbdca by fendor at 2025-08-12T08:53:59+00:00 Remove ghcHeap from list of toolTargets - - - - - 97 changed files: - .gitlab/darwin/toolchain.nix - .gitlab/generate-ci/gen_ci.hs - .gitlab/jobs.yaml - compiler/GHC/ByteCode/Types.hs - compiler/GHC/Cmm.hs - compiler/GHC/Cmm/CommonBlockElim.hs - compiler/GHC/CmmToAsm/PPC/Ppr.hs - compiler/GHC/CmmToAsm/Ppr.hs - compiler/GHC/CmmToLlvm/Data.hs - compiler/GHC/Runtime/Heap/Inspect.hs - compiler/GHC/Runtime/Interpreter.hs - compiler/GHC/StgToCmm/InfoTableProv.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Gen/Export.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Solver/Dict.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Solver/Equality.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Solver/Monad.hs - compiler/GHC/Tc/Solver/Solve.hs - compiler/GHC/Types/Name/Reader.hs - compiler/ghc.cabal.in - docs/users_guide/conf.py - docs/users_guide/debug-info.rst - docs/users_guide/expected-undocumented-flags.txt - docs/users_guide/exts/doandifthenelse.rst - + docs/users_guide/exts/relaxed_poly_rec.rst - docs/users_guide/exts/types.rst - hadrian/src/Rules/ToolArgs.hs - hadrian/src/Settings/Default.hs - hadrian/src/Settings/Packages.hs - libraries/base/src/GHC/Stack/CloneStack.hs - + libraries/ghc-experimental/src/GHC/Stack/Annotation/Experimental.hs - libraries/ghc-heap/GHC/Exts/Heap/ClosureTypes.hs - libraries/ghc-heap/GHC/Exts/Heap/Closures.hs - libraries/ghc-heap/GHC/Exts/Heap/Constants.hsc - libraries/ghc-heap/GHC/Exts/Heap/InfoTable.hsc - libraries/ghc-heap/GHC/Exts/Heap/InfoTable/Types.hsc - libraries/ghc-heap/GHC/Exts/Heap/InfoTableProf.hsc - libraries/ghc-heap/GHC/Exts/Heap/ProfInfo/Types.hs - libraries/ghc-heap/GHC/Exts/Stack/Constants.hsc - libraries/ghc-heap/GHC/Exts/Stack/Decode.hs - libraries/ghc-heap/ghc-heap.cabal.in - libraries/ghc-heap/cbits/HeapPrim.cmm → libraries/ghc-internal/cbits/HeapPrim.cmm - libraries/ghc-heap/cbits/Stack.cmm → libraries/ghc-internal/cbits/Stack.cmm - libraries/ghc-internal/cbits/StackCloningDecoding.cmm - libraries/ghc-heap/cbits/Stack_c.c → libraries/ghc-internal/cbits/Stack_c.c - libraries/ghc-internal/ghc-internal.cabal.in - libraries/ghc-internal/jsbits/base.js - libraries/ghc-internal/src/GHC/Internal/Exception/Backtrace.hs - + libraries/ghc-internal/src/GHC/Internal/Heap/Closures.hs - + libraries/ghc-internal/src/GHC/Internal/Heap/Constants.hsc - + libraries/ghc-internal/src/GHC/Internal/Heap/InfoTable.hsc - + libraries/ghc-internal/src/GHC/Internal/Heap/InfoTable/Types.hsc - + libraries/ghc-internal/src/GHC/Internal/Heap/InfoTableProf.hsc - + libraries/ghc-internal/src/GHC/Internal/Heap/ProfInfo/Types.hs - libraries/ghc-internal/src/GHC/Internal/Stack/CloneStack.hs - + libraries/ghc-internal/src/GHC/Internal/Stack/Constants.hsc - + libraries/ghc-internal/src/GHC/Internal/Stack/Decode.hs - libraries/ghc-internal/src/GHC/Internal/TH/Quote.hs - libraries/ghci/GHCi/Message.hs - libraries/ghci/ghci.cabal.in - libraries/template-haskell/Language/Haskell/TH/Quote.hs - libraries/template-haskell/changelog.md - rts/CloneStack.c - rts/CloneStack.h - rts/IPE.c - rts/ProfHeap.c - rts/RtsSymbols.c - rts/eventlog/EventLog.c - rts/include/rts/IPE.h - testsuite/tests/interface-stability/base-exports.stdout - testsuite/tests/interface-stability/base-exports.stdout-javascript-unknown-ghcjs - testsuite/tests/interface-stability/base-exports.stdout-mingw32 - testsuite/tests/interface-stability/base-exports.stdout-ws-32 - testsuite/tests/interface-stability/template-haskell-exports.stdout - + testsuite/tests/numeric/should_compile/T26229.hs - testsuite/tests/numeric/should_compile/all.T - + testsuite/tests/partial-sigs/should_compile/T26256.hs - + testsuite/tests/partial-sigs/should_compile/T26256.stderr - testsuite/tests/partial-sigs/should_compile/all.T - testsuite/tests/rts/ipe/ipeMap.c - testsuite/tests/rts/ipe/ipe_lib.c - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/DodgyLevelExport.hs - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/DodgyLevelExport.stderr - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/DodgyLevelExportA.hs - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/LevelImportExports.hs - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/LevelImportExports.stdout - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/LevelImportExportsA.hs - testsuite/tests/splice-imports/Makefile - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/ModuleExport.hs - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/ModuleExport.stderr - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/ModuleExportA.hs - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/ModuleExportB.hs - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/T26090.hs - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/T26090.stderr - + testsuite/tests/splice-imports/T26090A.hs - testsuite/tests/splice-imports/all.T - + testsuite/tests/typecheck/should_compile/T26256a.hs - testsuite/tests/typecheck/should_compile/all.T The diff was not included because it is too large.
