[GHC] #8585: Loopification should omit stack check

#8585: Loopification should omit stack check ------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: jstolarek | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: Runtime performance bug Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: Difficulty: Unknown | Blocking: Blocked By: | Related Tickets: | ------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- When we optimize a self-recursive tail call using loopification we don't need to perform a stack check in every loop. This is because a tail recursive function uses constant amount of stack. We should therefore place the loop header after the stack check, but before the heap check (because heap may grow in every call). parcs proposed a patch [https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8275#comment:34 here]. We just need to make sure why it works and add some documentation. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8585> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #8871: No-op assignment I64[BaseReg + 784] = I64[BaseReg + 784]; is generated into optimized Cmm

#8871: No-op assignment I64[BaseReg + 784] = I64[BaseReg + 784]; is generated into optimized Cmm ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: kgardas | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.9 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: Other Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Hello, on SPARC and I also guess on PPC it's possible to get following line in optimized Cmm code: {{{ I64[BaseReg + 784] = I64[BaseReg + 784]; }}} this line is then translated by NCG wasting 5 isns on SPARC at least. Don't know PPC. I'm not sure if this is possible to duplicate this on i386 due to fewer regs. Generally speaking you need to have 32bit target with more regs available. Interesting fact is that such line is not presented in non-optimized Cmm, but is presented in optimized one. Both optimized and non-optimized Cmms attached. Both get from compiling T7507 testcase by stage1 compiler on SPARC: {{{ /home/karel/vcs/ghc-src/ghc-sparc-reg_ncg/inplace/bin/ghc-stage1 -fforce- recomp -dcore-lint -dcmm-lint -dno-debug-output -no-user-package-db -rtsopts -fno-ghci-history -c T7507.hs -O -ddump-opt-cmm > T7507.opt-cmm- sparc-reg-ncg }}} Of course non-opt Cmm is got by -ddump-cmm instead of -ddump-opt-cmm. If you need more simplified testcase, then following code is usable too: {{{ module Main where import Data.Int main = print ( ( 2 ^ 6 ) :: Int64 ) }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8871> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #9159: cmm case, binary search instead of jump table

#9159: cmm case, binary search instead of jump table ------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: wojteknar | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: Runtime performance bug Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: Difficulty: Unknown | Blocking: Blocked By: | Related Tickets: | ------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- I'm not sure if this is qualifies as a bug or feature request. For case expressions where the scrutinee is Int#,or Int, or probably anything else numerical, GHC generates binary search, where a jump table could easily be used instead. The functions toChunk1# and toChunk2# yield suboptimal code. I found a satisfactory workaround, toChunk3# uses Enum and it is fine. For the attached code it probably does not matter much, but I have 65 cases in my real code, trying to implement a variant of ByteString, which will have the lowest possible storage overhead (just the info table pointer == one word) for lengths up to 64 bytes. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9159> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

Conditional commands''' of the User's Guide (http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/7.6.3/html/users_guide/arrow- notation.html#idp49515792) it is stated that: {{{ proc (x,y) -> if f x y then g -< x+1 else h -< y+2 }}} is translated to: {{{ arr (\ (x,y) -> if f x y then Left x else Right y) >>> (arr (\x -> x+1) >>> f) ||| (arr (\y -> y+2) >>> g) }}} But this translation doesn't seem correct, because the arrows ''g'' and ''h'' are not being used as in the original code (''h'' doesn't appear at all in the translation). -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8505> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #8751: Show parenthesised output of expressions in ghci

#8751: Show parenthesised output of expressions in ghci ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Iceland_jack | Owner: Iceland_jack Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: GHCi | Version: 7.6.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Operator fixity can be a source of bugs (even for experienced users!),[#point1 (1)] precedence levels may vary between languages and then there are user-defined operators. Attached is a patch for a ghci command allowing users to quickly parenthesise expressions as a sanity check (and as an alternative to using :info and parsing the result yourself). The command itself is activated with `:paren`: {{{ ghci> :paren 2 + 10 * 4 / 3 2 + ((10 * 4) / 3) ghci> :paren \a b → a == b || b && a == (b == a) || b \ a b -> (a == b) || ((b && (a == (b == a))) || b) ghci> :paren 5 + 1 `mod` 2 5 + (1 `mod` 2) ghci> :paren 5 * 1 `mod` 2 (5 * 1) `mod` 2 }}} A friend of mine also pointed out that this could eventually be integrated into `haskell-mode` where the user could temporarily replace an expression with a parenthesised version or have different colours indicate different levels of logical nesting.
