I don't know how to account for that. Make sure you are compiling everything with -dcore-lint. I guess you are on a Mac? I'm using 64-bit Linux. Is it definitely ok with the old demand analyser? Note for others: this is nofib/imaginary/integrate.

The last time I merged before was November 8, and everything was fine, just as I left it in September. So far, the only difference I can see in the W/W code is that the new-demand compiler makes more aggressive split for the arguments of `integrate1D` (see ww-new.log in the attachment), which seems to be correct to me, as these arguments are used strictly. The compiler from the trunk, however, keeps these arguments boxed, which surprises me (ww-trunk.log). I'm not entirely sure, but it might affect the unpacking strategy on later stages of the simplifier. It would be helpful to know what else I can do to debug this inconsistency. Thanks.

Today I spent some time merging 'master' into the 'new-demand-to-merge' branch. It went fine, and I managed to compile it and run the nofib, and results *almost* didn't change: the new strictness analyzer still does better in most of the cases than the old one. However, now we have a problem: for one test from nofib, namely imaginary/integrate, the optimizer changes the semantics, so the program fails. It is quite strange, as from the perspective of the demand analyser the results are similar. As I haven't changed anything in the analysis or the worker/wrapper split, I tend to think it might be the refactoring of the unpacking strategy that clashed with the current logic of W/W. Shall I merge the 'master' into 'new-demand' branch ignoring this issue, or should I keep things as they are, so you could take a look on it and merge it yourself?

The cardinality branch was up-to date with the trunk (and the new demand branch) by mid-November. Yesterday I tried to update it, but by some mysterious reasons I could not compile the current trunk (getting seg-fault). I suspect it might be because of some outdated cabal packages. So once I get the trunk compiled, I will bring both new demand and cardinality branch up to date. I'm still in Saint Petersburg, and will be here until mid-January, waiting for my Spanish visa. Next week I have a deadline for our SCP invited paper, and then for a few weeks I will be focusing exclusively on the cardinality and demand work.

Failing test

Iavor Are these four failures the result of your changes? Should we fix the tests? Should the error message say "The instance decl is inconsistent with the fundeps"?

RE: [commit: ghc] master: Use a version of the coverage condition even with UndecidableInstances. (fe61599)
by Simon Peyton-Jones 15 Jan '13

15 Jan '13

OK. I see that * oclose is never used * Note [Important subtlety in oclose] is out of date; it relates to when oclose was used with the global tyvars. This relates to change (1) of yours, behaving uniformly when the fixed tyvars are empty. So I nuked oclose altogether (hurrah), and renamed oclose1 to oclose. I'm happy with (2) using equalities. I'll commit these simplifications shortly.

Is there unused code in GHC source?
by Jan Stolarek 15 Jan '13

15 Jan '13

Dear devs, I'm trying to dig into GHC code and one thing is wondering me. Does the source contain old fragments of code that are not used anymore? Well, for such a big project the answer will probably be 'yes', but I'm wondering what the scale of this might be. I thought that such leftovers could be a bit misleading and I want to know if I should stay alert :) Janek

Understand disassemble for segfault on android

Hey, I am still investigating the segfaults of the exectuable produced by ghc to arm-linux-androideabi cross compiler. I need help. Can someone tell me if my conclusions are correct?

So I believe the instruction are mapped like this: ldr r1, [r0, #140] <-> tso = CurrentTSO ldr r12, [r1, #12] <-> stack = tso->stackobj If that is true, the loaded tso pointer ([r0, #140]) must be wrong. When I look at the backtrace at the moment of crash: #0 0x003f0588 in stg_returnToStackTop () #1 0x003c2e74 in schedule (initialCapability=0x3f057c, task=0x52f350) at rts/Schedule.c:463 #2 0x003c2e74 in schedule (initialCapability=0x52f340, task=0x400a42f0) at rts/Schedule.c:463 #3 0x003c4cb0 in scheduleWaitThread (tso=0x401033c0, ret=0x0, pcap=0xbe843b6c) at rts/Schedule.c:2351 There is a "tso" value passed to scheduleWaitThread (tso=0x401033c0). Should be this is the same address, form where the tso is loaded in the instruction: ldr r1, [r0, #140] <-> tso = CurrentTSO ? If so, the value in r0 is way of. info register r0 0x3f057c 4130172 r1 0xe24dd010 -498216944 Are my conclusions so far correct, and I have to find out why r0 is having the wrong value? Thanks!

There is some more success :). When I do an unregisterised build, it works without segfault.

I am on ubuntu 64 bit. I am planing to share the information in a blog post, but I will wait if I (or someone else) gets the registerised build to work. I made a short writedown of the steps it took here: https://github.com/RudolfVonKrugstein/jshaskell-blog/blob/master/android_gh… Regards, Nathan

Class instances that overlap are chosen among by order of specificity; overlapping instances can be declared in separate modules. Overlapping family instances must be given an explicit order, and those that overlap must all be in the same module. The decision to make these different was to avoid type soundness issues that would arise with overlapping type family instances declared in separate modules. (Ordering a set of family instance equations by specificity, on the other hand, could easily be done within GHC.) So, as yet, we can't fully encode functional dependencies with type families, I don't think.

In fact, I've formalized such a proof language in a PPDP'06 paper: "Extracting programs from type class proofs" (type improvement comes only at the end) Similar to FC, coercions (proof terms) are used to represent type equations (improvement). Why extend FC? Why not simply use type families to encode FDs (and thus keep FC simple and small). It's been a while, but as far as I remember, the encoding is only problematic in case of the combination of FDs and overlapping instances. Shouldn't this now be fixable given that type family instances can be overlapping?

The reason some proving is needed is that the compiler needs to figure out that for each instantiation of the type `ta` and `tb` will be the same (which, of course, follows directly from the FD on the class). As far as I understand, the reason that GHC does not construct such proofs is that it can't express them in its internal proof language (System FC). It seems to me that it should be fairly straight-forward to extend FC to support this sort of proof, but I have not been able to convince folks that this is the case. I could elaborate, if there's interest. In the mean time, the way forward would probably be to express the dependency using type families, which I find tends to be more verbose but, at present, is better supported in GHC.

Building on android - compiled program segfaults
by Nathan Hüsken 11 Jan '13

11 Jan '13

Hi, I was succesfull in building ghc (pulled from git) to compile for arm-linux-androideabi! Now using "inplace/bin/ghc-stage1 -dcore-lint -debug" I compiler this Main.hs: main = putStrLn "Hello, World" I get an executable, which I can run on my android device. Unfortantly it segfaults. Running it with ./Main +RTS -DS gives: cap 0: initialised Now I am trying to debug this in gdb. When I try to display the stack (which should be in r13 on arm of I understand correctly, I get); (gdb) p8 $r13 0xbef00a74: 0x0 0xbef00a70: 0x0 0xbef00a6c: 0x3c2e74 0xbef00a68: 0x530350 0xbef00a64: 0x0 0xbef00a60: 0x0 0xbef00a5c: 0x0 0xbef00a58: 0x0 And now I am clueless. So I tried the good old printf debugging in the rts. Using this, I see that it gets before the call to scheduleWaitThread in the function rts_evalLazyIO (in RtsAPI.c). But when I put a printf in the beginning of scheduleWaitThread (in Schedule.c) it is not shown. What else can I do to find out more? Thanks! Nathan
