Ben Gamari pushed to branch wip/kill-ioport at Glasgow Haskell Compiler / GHC Commits: ee2dc248 by Simon Hengel at 2025-07-31T06:25:35-04:00 Update comments on `OptKind` to reflect the code reality - - - - - b029633a by Wen Kokke at 2025-07-31T06:26:21-04:00 rts: Disable --eventlog-flush-interval unless compiled with -threaded. This commit fixes issue #26222: Using --eventlog-flush-interval with the non-threaded RTS leads to eventlog corruption. https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/26222 This commit makes three changes when code is compiled against the non-threaded RTS: 1. It disables the --eventlog-flush-interval flag. 2. It disables the documentation for the --eventlog-flush-interval flag. 3. It disables the relevant state from RtsConfig and code from Timer. 4. It updates the entry for --eventlog-flush-interval in the users guide. - - - - - 31159f1d by Wen Kokke at 2025-07-31T06:26:21-04:00 rts: Split T20006 into tests with and without -threaded - - - - - 618687ef by Simon Hengel at 2025-07-31T06:27:03-04:00 docs/users_guide/win32-dlls.rst: Remove references to `readline` - - - - - 083e40f1 by Rodrigo Mesquita at 2025-08-01T04:38:23-04:00 debugger: Uniquely identify breakpoints by internal id Since b85b11994e0130ff2401dd4bbdf52330e0bcf776 (support inlining breakpoints), a breakpoint has been identified at runtime by *two* pairs of . - The first, aka a 'BreakpointId', uniquely identifies a breakpoint in the source of a module by using the Tick index. A Tick index can index into ModBreaks.modBreaks_xxx to fetch source-level information about where that tick originated. - When a user specifies e.g. a line breakpoint using :break, we'll reverse engineer what a Tick index for that line - We update the `BreakArray` of that module (got from the LoaderState) at that tick index to `breakOn`. - A BCO we can stop at is headed by a BRK_FUN instruction. This instruction stores in an operand the `tick index` it is associated to. We look it up in the associated `BreakArray` (also an operand) and check wheter it was set to `breakOn`. - The second, aka the `ibi_info_mod` + `ibi_info_ix` of the `InternalBreakpointId`, uniquely index into the `imodBreaks_breakInfo` -- the information we gathered during code generation about the existing breakpoint *ocurrences*. - Note that with optimisation there may be many occurrences of the same source-tick-breakpoint across different modules. The `ibi_info_ix` is unique per occurrence, but the `bi_tick_ix` may be shared. See Note [Breakpoint identifiers] about this. - Note that besides the tick ids, info ids are also stored in `BRK_FUN` so the break handler can refer to the associated `CgBreakInfo`. In light of that, the driving changes come from the desire to have the info_id uniquely identify the breakpoint at runtime, and the source tick id being derived from it: - An InternalBreakpointId should uniquely identify a breakpoint just from the code-generation identifiers of `ibi_info_ix` and `ibi_info_mod`. So we drop `ibi_tick_mod` and `ibi_tick_ix`. - A BRK_FUN instruction need only record the "internal breakpoint id", not the tick-level id. So we drop the tick mod and tick index operands. - A BreakArray should be indexed by InternalBreakpointId rather than BreakpointId That means we need to do some more work when setting a breakpoint. Specifically, we need to figure out the internal ids (occurrences of a breakpoint) from the source-level BreakpointId we want to set the breakpoint at (recall :break refers to breaks at the source level). Besides this change being an improvement to the handling of breakpoints (it's clearer to have a single unique identifier than two competing ones), it unlocks the possibility of generating "internal" breakpoints during Cg (needed for #26042). It should also be easier to introduce multi-threaded-aware `BreakArrays` following this change (needed for #26064).

Failing to do so results in hard to debug unique conflicts. It is difficult for API users to tell which unique tags are safe to use. So instead of leaving this up to the user to decide, we now export a version of `newNameCache` which uses a guaranteed non-reserved unique tag. In fact, this is now the way the unique tag is initialized for all invocations of the compiler. The original version of `newNameCache` is now exported as `newNameCache'` for advanced users. We also deprecate `initNameCache` as it is also prone to footguns and is completely subsumed in functionality by `newNameCache` and `newNameCache'`.

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.
