[GHC] #7960: Compiling profiling CCS registration .c file takes far too long

#7960: Compiling profiling CCS registration .c file takes far too long -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: Compiler Version: 7.6.3 | Keywords: Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: Compile-time performance bug | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- When compiling executables for profiling, ghc generates a .c file something like this: {{{ #define IN_STG_CODE 0 #include "Rts.h" #include "Stg.h" static void prof_init_Main(void) __attribute__((constructor)); static void prof_init_Main(void) {extern CostCentre Foo_bar_cc[]; REGISTER_CC(Foo_bar_cc); ... }}} When there are a large number of CCSs, e.g. 10's of 1,000s (as can easily happen with large projects and using `-fprof-auto`) then of course this .c file and this single C function become very large. The C compiler then takes a very long time to compile it. For example, with a .c file with ~27k lines (so about half that number of CCSs), gcc 4.7.2 with -O1 takes about 20 minutes to compile. With -O0 it takes about 4 seconds. Clearly this version of gcc does not cope very well with this massive function at -O1 level. I suggest that since the initialisation is not performance critical, and it doesn't look like there is a lot to optimise here anyway, that ghc compile this .c file without passing gcc the -O flag. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7960> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

I will make sure that there are no regressions, both in terms of code size and performance, as soon as I manage to run nofib - right now I'm struggling with some nofib errors (mailed on ghc-devs today). Also, #7958 blocks me partially with benchmarking hastables package. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/6135#comment:65> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #7962: "ghc -e <invalid expression>" should return non-zero exit status

#7962: "ghc -e <invalid expression>" should return non-zero exit status ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: timmaxw | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: GHCi Version: 7.6.2 | Keywords: Os: Linux | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: Other | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- When GHC is run in expression-evaluation mode (i.e. with the "-e" flag) and the expression does not compile, GHC correctly prints an error message, but then exits with exit status 0. For example: {{{ $ ghc -e foo <interactive>:1:1: Not in scope: `foo' $ echo $? 0 }}} This is inconvenient for automated scripts that call GHC. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7962> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
