#9599: app runs 10 times faster when compiled with profilling information than without it -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: kgardas | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Solaris Architecture: x86 | Type of failure: Runtime Difficulty: Unknown | performance bug Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Hello, I've found interesting application code which when compiled with {{{ -O2 -threaded --make }}} runs 10 times slower than the same code compiled with {{{ -O2 -threaded --make -prof -auto-all -caf-all -fforce-recomp }}} the application is compiled by GHC 7.8.2 on i386-solaris2 platform. The profiling application is then run as normal application, i.e. without +RTS -p. The application itself is my crude beginner Haskell code which takes Wikipedia dump (XML file) and tries wiki pages from there import into XWiki using REST API. It uses Data.Text package for lazy load of Wikipedia data, whole logic of selection of page/title/content is done on Data.Text and later saved into XPage which is using ByteString. The application also uses Simon Marlow's Async/async/wait code which is copied from Simon Marlow's Parallel and Concurrent Programming in Haskell http://chimera.labs.oreilly.com/books/1230000000929 App attached. My question is, what to do with it to help finding the issue? E.g. I assume it's issue when profiling app is that much faster than common optimized app. For your information, optimized app takes 9m50s to upload 1000 pages while profiled optimized app takes only 50s to upload the same amount of pages on my equipped with E5-2620 (2 GHz 6 core/12 threads xeon) Also the difference in time is that big that it's not caused by a noise in import of pages on XWiki side. I've tested several times of course. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9599> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #8581: Add support for explicitly-bidirectional pattern synonyms

#8581: Add support for explicitly-bidirectional pattern synonyms ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: cactus | Owner: cactus Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: 5144 | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Some patterns cannot, by themselves, be turned over into an expression, so they have to be defined as unidirectional. Maybe the most trivial example would be {{{ pattern P -> _ }}} Sometimes, however, it would be desirable to give an explicit way of turning these pattern synonyms into expressions. The PatternSynonyms wiki page has this example: {{{ import qualified Data.Sequence as Seq pattern Empty -> (Seq.viewl -> Seq.EmptyL) pattern x :< xs -> (Seq.viewl -> x Seq.:< xs) pattern xs :> x -> (Seq.viewr -> xs Seq.:> x) }}} It would make a ton of sense to be able to use this cons/snoc notation as "constructors" for `Seq`s. The proposed syntax for this {{{ pattern x :< xs -> (Seq.viewl -> x Seq.:< xs) where x :< xs = x Seq.<| xs }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8581> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#8822: Allow -- ^ Haddock syntax on record constructors -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Fuuzetsu | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler (Parser) | Version: 7.9 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Original ticket is on Haddock Trac [http://trac.haskell.org/haddock/ticket/144 here] which I'm opening here as it requires lexer/parser changes. The idea is that given something like {{{ -- | A tree with labeled internal nodes data Tree = Empty -- ^ Leaf | Branch -- ^ Internal node { label :: a -- ^ Node label , subtrees :: [Tree] -- ^ List of subtrees } }}} we'd like it to parse as the user would expect instead of failing. We're currently forced to do something like {{{ -- | A tree with labeled internal nodes data Tree = Empty -- ^ Leaf | -- | Internal node Branch { label :: a -- ^ Node label , subtrees :: [Tree] -- ^ List of subtrees } }}} which is quite ugly. I can't think of a reason why the first form wouldn't be allowed. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8822> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#9123: Need for higher kinded roles ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- This [http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-devs/2014-May/004964.html thread] on ghc-devs identifies a real shortcoming of the new roles system. Here's a compact example, from the thread {{{ class C m where ret :: a -> m a bind :: m a -> (a -> m b) -> m b join :: m (m a) -> m a newtype T m a = MkT (m a) deriving( C ) }}} The `deriving(C)` is accepted without `join` in the class, but rejected when `join` is added. And the AMP proposal adds `join` to class `Monad`! In one way it is rightly rejected: it really would be unsound to derive an instance for `C (T K)` where `K`'s argument had nominal (but not representational) role. But we have no way to limit the type constructors at which `T` can be used. This deficiency is noted in the [http://research.microsoft.com/en- us/um/people/simonpj/papers/ext-f/ Safe Coercions paper], but this seems to be the first occasion on which it has bitten us badly. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9123> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#8695: Arithmetic overflow from (minBound :: Int) `quot` (-1) -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: rleslie | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: | Version: 7.6.3 libraries/haskell2010 | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Keywords: | Type of failure: Incorrect result Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | at runtime Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- According to the documentation for Data.Int, “All arithmetic is performed modulo 2!^n, where n is the number of bits in the type.” However, this promise is broken by the following exception: {{{ Prelude> (minBound :: Int) `quot` (-1) *** Exception: arithmetic overflow }}} (This also occurs with Int8, Int16, Int32, and Int64, and likewise for `div`.) If all arithmetic is performed modulo 2!^n, I would rather expect the above to evaluate to `minBound`, since after all `minBound * (-1) == minBound`. The fact that an exception is raised adds an unnecessary burden in pure code to ensure `quot` (or `div`) is never called with these specific arguments. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8695> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#9046: Panic in GHCi when using :print ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: quchen | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.8.3 Component: GHCi | Version: 7.8.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: GHCi crash Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- When using names generated by :print, GHCi panics sometimes. According to #ghc, this is reproducible on ''x86_64-apple-darwin'' as well, but is not an issue in ''7.6.3 x86_64 linux''. {{{ > let a = [1] > :print a a = (_t1::Num t => [t]) > :t _t1 ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened) (GHC version 7.8.2 for x86_64-unknown-linux): tcTyVarDetails t{tv avD} [tv] > _t1 <same panic> }}} From playing around with it a bit, this seems to have something to do with polymorphic values. {{{ -- No panic > let a = [1 :: Int] > let a = 1 :: Int > let a = "hello" -- Panic > let a = [1] > let a = 1 > let a = "hello" -- With -XOverloadedStrings }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9046> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
