One can easily forget this and make programming mistakes. For example if you try to store the number of words in the `bytes` field, the garbage collector won't honor your decision.

I will attach the output of cabal build --ghc-options=-v for a failing and a successful build. I hypothesize this is due to a command line length limit. The final failing gcc link command is 43814 characters, vs 30765 in the configuration that succeeds. Right around the 32k boundry. Not sure what I can do to work around this, short of splitting up my program into standalone libraries which will link without referencing every individual module? -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8596> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

Case in point, this recent test suite commit: {{{ commit 29b0521cd9be39b4026103d184d1fec14ef3bc22 Author: Edward Z.

Yang <ezyang(a)mit.edu> }}} Yes, the API is "correct" in some sense, but from a portability sense, we really want the function to add the underscore itself. If we change this particular function, we will probably break most dynamic loading code (including GHC's). We could also add a safe variant of the function. We just need to decide something to do. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8290> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#8926: GHC makes unsound references in object code ----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: | Owner: anton.dubovik | Status: new Type: bug | Milestone: Priority: normal | Version: 7.6.3 Component: Compiler | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Keywords: | Type of failure: GHC rejects valid program Architecture: | Test Case: Unknown/Multiple | Blocking: Difficulty: Unknown | Blocked By: | Related Tickets: | ----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- To reproduce the bug run script `run.sh` from the attached archive. It will: 1. install `FooPackage` {{{ Resolving dependencies... Configuring FooPackage-0.1... Building FooPackage-0.1... Preprocessing library FooPackage-0.1...

"SPEC Data.Set.Base.insert [GHC.Base.String]" [ALWAYS] forall $dOrd :: GHC.Classes.Ord GHC.Base.String Data.Set.Base.insert @ [GHC.Types.Char] $dOrd = FooPackage.$sinsert ... }}} Later GHC see again the use of `Data.Set.insert@String` at `BarClient` and decides to apply this specialise rule, so that `BarClient` now has reference to `FooPackage`: {{{ > ghc --show-iface BarClient.hi ... bar :: Data.Set.Base.Set GHC.Base.String -> Data.Set.Base.Set GHC.Base.String {- Arity: 1, Strictness: S, Unfolding: (\ s :: Data.Set.Base.Set GHC.Base.String -> FooPackage.$sinsert_$sgo5 BarClient.bar1 s) -} ... }}} `Client2` doesn't depend on `FooPackage`, thus linker throws an error. There are plenty of workarounds here, but all of them are ad hoc (1,2,3) or could affect performance (4): 1. Change the order of `BarClient` and `QuxClient` imports in `Client1` module. 2. Compile `Client1` and `Client2` in opposite order. 3. Add fake import at `Client2` module: {{{ import FooPackage() }}} 4. Build `FooPackage` with ghc-option `-fomit-interface-pragmas`. That will eraise from `FooPackage.hi` all specialisation rules as well as information about strictness and inlining. Some information about the environment: {{{ > ghc-pkg list ... containers-0.5.0.0 base-4.6.0.1 ... > ghc --version The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 7.6.3 > cabal --version cabal-install version 1.18.0.3 using version 1.18.1.3 of the Cabal library }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8926> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #8127: iOS patch no 19: Linking

#8127: iOS patch no 19: Linking -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: StephenBlackheath | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Keywords: | Operating System: Other Architecture: arm | Type of failure: GHC doesn't work Difficulty: Moderate (less | at all than a day) | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: 7724 Related Tickets: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Fix linking for cross compiler to iOS. This patch does these things: 1. use libtool to link to a static library in place of an executable (because on iOS the final link must be done in Xcode), 2. for packages, keep only the HS package libraries and throw out other options (because libtool doesn't accept them), 3. fail if you try to link a dynamic library on iOS because it isn't supported (not really needed but there for completeness). Note that there is a minor risk here, because in the normal case, the order of options passed to the linker is slightly different: The options relating to each dependent package are separated into three different kinds, but they're still in the same relative order per package. This should be perfectly OK. The name of "libtool" is hard-coded and can't be set by options. Is this OK? -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8127> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #8096: Add fudge-factor for performance tests run on non-validate builds

#8096: Add fudge-factor for performance tests run on non-validate builds ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Build System | Version: 7.7 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Since I'm not going to get around to this immediately, Trac'ifying for posterity: These tests have been doing better than expected in the nightlies for some while. {{{ Unexpected failures: perf/compiler T3064 [stat too good] (normal) perf/compiler T3294 [stat too good] (normal) perf/compiler T5642 [stat too good] (normal) perf/haddock haddock.Cabal [stat too good] (normal) perf/haddock haddock.base [stat too good] (normal) }}} Unfortunately, fixing them is not a simple matter of shifting the ranges up, since the tests only exceed expectations on a /perf/ build, so on a normal build such as 'quick', these tests all pass normally. I could bump up the upper bounds so that the builder stops bleating about them; perhaps we could do something more complicated where the expected performance depends on what level of optimization GHC was built with (but I don't know how to implement this.) ---- The problem with just widening the bounds to cover 2 different types of build is that it increases the chance that performance changes won't actually be noticed by thge person responsible. Having different bounds for different build configurations is a pain, because (a) the testsuite has to work out which set of bounds to use, and (b) you now have even more wobbly values to keep up-to-date. I think perhaps the best thing would be to add some sort of (per-test?) fudge factor for non-validate builds. That way validate will still find performance regressions, like it does today, but other builds are less likely to give false positives.

[GHC] #8330: Remove ExtsCompat46 module once we bootstrap with GHC 7.8

#8330: Remove ExtsCompat46 module once we bootstrap with GHC 7.8 -------------------------------------------+------------------------------- Reporter: jstolarek | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: 7.10.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Keywords: | Operating System: Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Unknown/Multiple Difficulty: Easy (less than 1 hour) | Type of failure: Blocked By: | None/Unknown Related Tickets: | Test Case: | Blocking: -------------------------------------------+------------------------------- Changing type signature of comparison primops from `Bool` to `Int#` in GHC 7.8 (see #6135) caused a problem: type signatures of functions might be different for the bootstrapping compiler (if it is older than 7.8) than they are for the stage1 compiler. In order to solve this problem I introduced a compatibility module [[GhcFile(compiler/utils/ExtsCompat46)]] that provides different definition of primops for older versions of GHC (`__GLASGOW_HASKELL__ <= 706`) and different for newer versions (`__GLASGOW_HASKELL__ > 706`). However, once we set minimal version of GHC required for bootstrapping to be 7.8, we can (and should!) remove that compatibility module and go back to using GHC.Exts. This ticket is a reminder that we should do this after we release GHC 7.10 or 7.12. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8330> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
