[GHC] #8278: Improve error message when the same type is imported from two different library versions

#8278: Improve error message when the same type is imported from two different library versions ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Yuras | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | 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: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- When a package indirectly depends on different versions of the same library, ghc reports cryptic error: {{{ Couldn't match expected type `ByteString' with actual type `bytestring-0.9.2.1:Data.ByteString.Internal.ByteString' }}} Error contains fully qualified type with package name and version only when the type is imported from different versions on the library, so looks like ghc knows what is wrong. Is it possible to add something like the next: {{{ Note: ByteString is imported from different package versions: bytestring-0.9.2.1 and bytestring-0.10.0.1 }}} It is inspired by a number of StackOverflow questions (e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12576817/couldnt-match-expected-type- with-actual-type-error-when-using-codec-bmp/12577025#12577025, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18767086/bytestring-to-lazy-text-and- vice-versa/18769431?noredirect=1#comment27676563_18769431) -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8278> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#9920: Segfault in arm binary ----------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: erikd | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.9 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: arm | Type of failure: Runtime crash Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Revisions: ----------------------------+------------------------------------------- Using ghc HEAD (6713f0d9a) I compile a very simple program which segfaults immediately. Stepping through it using GDB I find its crashing on the instruction {{{ 0x3f5a98 <stg_init_finish$def+12> ldr r5, [r5] }}} and that just before this instruction the value of `r5` is zero. That means its trying to load into `r5` the value at the address in `r5`. Obviously that's going to segfault. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9920> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#9022: TH pretty printer and GHC parser semicolon placement mismatch ----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: roldugin | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 (Parser) | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Keywords: | Type of failure: GHC rejects valid program Architecture: | Test Case: Unknown/Multiple | Blocking: Difficulty: Unknown | Blocked By: | Related Tickets: | ----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- In GHC 7.8 TemplateHaskell pretty printer started inserting explicit braces and semicolons. It puts semicolons at the end of the line as opposed to the beginning of the next line. This causes GHC to fail parsing if we try to compile the pretty printed code. {{{ $ cat Foo.hs module Main where import Language.Haskell.TH main = putStrLn $ pprint foo foo :: Dec foo = barD where barD = FunD ( mkName "bar" ) [ Clause manyArgs (NormalB barBody) [] ] barBody = DoE [letxStmt, retxStmt] letxStmt = LetS [ ValD (VarP xName) (NormalB $ LitE $ IntegerL 5) [] ] retxStmt = NoBindS $ AppE returnVarE xVarE xName = mkName "x" returnVarE = VarE $ mkName "return" xVarE = VarE xName manyArgs = map argP [0..9] argP n = VarP $ mkName $ "arg" ++ show n $ ghc-7.8.2 Foo.hs [1 of 1] Compiling Main ( Foo.hs, Foo.o ) Linking Foo ... $ ./Foo | tee Bar.hs bar arg0 arg1 arg2 arg3 arg4 arg5 arg6 arg7 arg8 arg9 = do {let x = 5; return x} $ ghc Bar.hs [1 of 1] Compiling Main ( Bar.hs, Bar.o ) Bar.hs:2:61: parse error on input `return' }}} I don't know if this is a problem with TH pretty printer or if GHC is supposed to parse semicolons wherever they are.. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9022> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

MSys2 doesn't enter #ifdef blocks which test for _WIN32. Instead, it pretends to be Linux and has a set of headers which emulate things like mmap. These emulation functions are really really slow -- in my personal tests about 10x slower than calling the WINAPI -- so this ticket is just a reminder (it may already be done) for someone to check that MSys2 builds things non-emulated in GHC. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8842> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
