[GHC] #10417: Rule matching not "seeing through" floating and type lambda (and maybe cast)

#10417: Rule matching not "seeing through" floating and type lambda (and maybe cast) -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Test Case: | Related Tickets: Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- The nub of the problem looks like this. We have a RULE: {{{#!hs {-# RULES "Sequence/Sequence" forall a b c. Sequence (Sequence a b) c = Sequence a (Sequence b c) #-} }}} and some core code that looks like: {{{#!hs failing_example = \ @ s_azo -> Sequence ((failing_example3) `cast` ...) (...) failing_example3 = \ @ s_azo -> Sequence (...) (...) }}} We would hope that the rule would match here but clearly it does not. There's obviously a few things in the way of a straightforward match: 1. the key subterm is floated out 2. there's a `\ @ ->` type lambda in the way in the subterm 3. there's a `cast` in the way in the subterm It appears that the problem is not the cast but the combination of 1 & 2. A reduced example shows the problem occurs with just the first two. That said, the real code would also rely on it working with the `cast`. ---- The rest of this is the code needed to construct the example. The code is also attached to the ticket. {{{#!hs {-# LANGUAGE GADTs, RankNTypes, TypeOperators, ScopedTypeVariables, TypeFamilies, KindSignatures, DataKinds, UndecidableInstances #-} module RulesExample (working_example2) where import Prelude hiding (pure, (<*>)) data Decoder s s' where -- explicit encoding of sequencing Done :: Decoder s s Sequence :: Decoder a b -> Decoder b c -> Decoder a c -- primitive operation in "chained" style ConsumeWord :: Decoder (Word :*: s) s' -> Decoder s s' AlterStack :: (a -> b) -> Decoder b s' -> Decoder a s' data a :*: b = a :*: b infixr 5 :*: }}} We compose actions using the explicit encoding of sequencing {{{#!hs a >>> b = Sequence a b }}} Aside: in the real thing we go via the category class: instance Category Decoder where id = Done a . b = Sequence b a {-# INLINE (.) #-} the Category module defines >>> as flip (.) Now our primitives are in the chained style, and we turn them into the explicit sequencing style by chaining them with Done: {{{#!hs consumeWord :: Decoder s (Word :*: s) consumeWord = ConsumeWord Done alter :: (a -> b) -> Decoder a b alter f = AlterStack f Done }}} example of explicit sequencing: {{{ consumeWord >>> consumeWord >>> ... }}} but naively this will give us things like: {{{ ConsumeWord Done `Sequence` ConsumeWord Done `Sequence` ... }}} and we can interpret this much faster if it's in the "chained" style {{{ ConsumeWord (ConsumeWord (... ) ) }}} Aside: there are good reasons not to just try and construct this chained style in the first place. We can't do it everywhere, and where it would fail we would get bad code. Rather we want to start with something ok and optimise it locally. So, we use RULES to reassociate things and eliminate the Sequence and Done where possible: {{{#!hs {-# RULES "Sequence/Done" forall sa. Sequence Done sa = sa #-} {-# RULES "Sequence/Sequence" forall a b c. Sequence (Sequence a b) c = Sequence a (Sequence b c) #-} {-# RULES "Sequence/ConsumeWord" forall sa sa'. Sequence (ConsumeWord sa) sa' = ConsumeWord (Sequence sa sa') #-} {-# RULES "Sequence/AlterStack" forall f sa sa'. Sequence (AlterStack f sa) sa' = AlterStack f (Sequence sa sa') #-} }}} Now for starters, ghc produces warnings for all three RULES like: {{{ Rule "Sequence/Done" may never fire because ‘RulesExample.Sequence’ might inline first Probable fix: add an INLINE[n] or NOINLINE[n] pragma on ‘RulesExample.Sequence’ }}} but it's currently syntactically invalid to write such a pragma: {{{ {-# INLINE [0] Done #-} {-# INLINE [0] Sequence #-} }}} and also, the warning isn't wholly correct, the rule can fire: {{{#!hs working_example = consumeWord >>> consumeWord >>> alter (\(a :*: b :*: s) -> (a,b) :*: s) }}} actually, this isn't yet quite enough because we cannot persuade ghc to inline consumeWord, because it's just a static composition of constructors, not even if we hit it with the INLINE pragma: {{{#!hs {-# INLINE consumeWord #-} }}} we have to resort to the bigger hammer of an inline rule: {{{#!hs {-# RULES "inline consumeWord" consumeWord = ConsumeWord Done #-} }}} now this is good, we get exactly the core that we want: {{{ $WDone = \ @ s_anC -> Done @~ <s_anC>_N working_example3 = \ @ b_aw2 ds_dAY -> case ds_dAY of _ { :*: a_aoc ds1_dAZ -> case ds1_dAZ of _ { :*: b1_aod s_aoe -> :*: (a_aoc, b1_aod) s_aoe } } working_example2 = \ @ b_aw2 -> AlterStack (working_example3) ($WDone) working_example1 = \ @ b_aw2 -> ConsumeWord (working_example2) working_example = \ @ b_aw2 -> ConsumeWord (working_example1) }}} This is perfect. Each constructor is statically allocated and refers to the next one in the chain. This allows the interpreter to walk over this without triggering any allocation, and the chain style means that in the usual case it doesn't have to do control flow call/return work for the Sequence/Done. Note already that we may have an issue with rule matching on Done, since it does get changed later into $WDone. So it could actually be useful to be able to write: {{{ {-# INLINE [0] Done #-} }}} Ok, so, what doesn't work... Floating things out is not itself a problem, this still works fine, the rules fire. So apparently the `\ @ b_aw2 -> ` type abstraction isn't a problem for the rule matching. {{{#!hs second_example = consumeWord >>> part2 part2 = consumeWord >>> part3 part3 = alter (\(a :*: b :*: s) -> (a,b) :*: s) }}} However the following fails to work. This example is actually extracted from the core of a real example that doesn't work. {{{#!hs artificial_example = Sequence failing_example3 failing_example1 where failing_example3 = Sequence failing_example5 failing_example4 failing_example5 = Sequence Done failing_example6 failing_example6 = ConsumeWord Done failing_example4 = ConsumeWord Done failing_example1 = AlterStack failing_example2 Done failing_example2 (a :*: b :*: s) = (a,b) :*: s }}} here's a specific example of a rule not matching: {{{ ailing_example3 = \ @ a_ax3 -> Sequence (failing_example4) (failing_example4) failing_example4 = \ @ s_awp -> ConsumeWord ($WDone) }}} This should match the rule {{{ Sequence (ConsumeWord sa) sa' = ConsumeWord (Sequence sa sa') }}} but apparently does not. The combo of the floating out and the type lambda seem to get in the way. Note that in this example ghc has also CSE'd the failing_example4 with failing_example5 and so failing_example4 is used twice. But if that's the problem here, there also equivalent instances of the Sequence/Sequence rule not matching. Also, ConsumeWord is certainly CONLIKE so we'd hope even if ghc had already CSEd that it'd allow the duplication for the rule matching. In fact looking at the simpl iterations I think the rule would have gotten a chance to fire before the CSE occured. In the real example that the above was extracted from we also have `cast`s in the way. Unfortunately we need more infrastructure to illustrate the full example. I don't think the details of this infrastructure is important, except that it ends up giving us `cast` in the core. We're building an abstraction on top of Decoder to let us use Applicative style. {{{#!hs data Fun a = Id | Cons a | O (Fun a) (Fun a) -- this requires UndecidableInstances type family Apply (f :: Fun *) (a :: *) :: * type instance Apply Id a = a type instance Apply (Cons x) a = x :*: a type instance Apply (O f g) a = Apply f (Apply g a) }}} we pair up stack changes and their inverses {{{#!hs data DecoderA0 s (f :: Fun *) a = DecoderA0 (Decoder s (Apply f s)) -- change the stack from s -> f s (Apply f s -> (s, a)) -- change stack back from f s -> s {-# INLINE pure0 #-} pure0 :: forall a s. a -> DecoderA0 s Id a pure0 a = DecoderA0 Done (\s -> (s, a)) {-# INLINE app0 #-} app0 :: DecoderA0 s f (a -> b) -> DecoderA0 (Apply f s) g a -> DecoderA0 s (g `O` f) b app0 (DecoderA0 d f) (DecoderA0 d' x) = DecoderA0 (d >>> d') appStack where -- just flipped <*> for state monad appStack = \s -> case x s of (s', x') -> case f s' of (s'', f') -> (s'', f' x') {-# INLINE close0 #-} close0 :: forall s f a. DecoderA0 s f a -> Decoder s (a :*: s) close0 (DecoderA0 d se) = d >>> alter se' where se' :: Apply f s -> (a :*: s) se' s = case se s of (s', a) -> a :*: s' }}} now we can abstract over the stack change, because it always takes us back to the same initial stack state {{{#!hs data DecoderA a where DecoderA :: (forall s. DecoderA0 s f a) -> DecoderA a }}} in the real thing we use Functor and Applicative instances, but we only need bits {{{#!hs pure a = DecoderA (pure0 a) DecoderA f <*> DecoderA x = DecoderA (app0 f x) infixl 4 <*> }}} now conversions functions: {{{#!hs {-# INLINE embedDecoderA #-} embedDecoderA :: DecoderA a -> Decoder s (a :*: s) embedDecoderA (DecoderA ap) = close0 ap {-# INLINE[1] embedDecoder #-} embedDecoder :: forall a. (forall s. Decoder s (a :*: s)) -> DecoderA a embedDecoder dec = DecoderA popResultAp where popResultAp :: DecoderA0 s (Cons a) a popResultAp = DecoderA0 dec (\(a :*: s) -> (s, a)) }}} ok, we can finally build our example... {{{#!hs failing_example = embedDecoderA $ pure (,) <*> embedDecoder consumeWord <*> embedDecoder consumeWord }}} So all the applicative stuff gets inlined away, but we end up with this core: {{{ $WDone = \ @ s_anC -> Done @~ <s_anC>_N failing_example6 = \ @ s_azo -> ConsumeWord ($WDone) failing_example4 = \ @ s_azo -> ConsumeWord ($WDone) failing_example5 = \ @ s_azo -> Sequence (($WDone) `cast` ...) ((failing_example6) `cast` ...) failing_example3 = \ @ s_azo -> Sequence ((failing_example5) `cast` ...) ((failing_example4) `cast` ...) failing_example2 = \ @ s_azo s1_aox -> case s1_aox `cast` ... of _ { :*: a_aoH s2_aoI -> case s2_aoI `cast` ... of _ { :*: a1_Xpa s3_Xpc -> :*: (a1_Xpa, a_aoH) (s3_Xpc `cast` ...) } } failing_example1 = \ @ s_azo -> AlterStack (failing_example2) ($WDone) failing_example = \ @ s_azo -> Sequence ((failing_example3) `cast` ...) (failing_example1) }}} We have two examples of RULES not mathing where we would have hoped. Firstly, we have: {{{ Sequence (($WDone) `cast` ...) (...) }}} We would of course hope that the rule Sequence Done sa = sa would match here It's unclear if this is due to the `$WDone` or the `cast`. Certainly the conversion from Done to `$WDone` can be worked around by using a function {{{ {-# INLINE [0] done #-} done = Done }}} and changing the code and rules to use that. So the main problem is the one mentioned at the top of the ticket: {{{ failing_example = \ @ s_azo -> Sequence ((failing_example3) `cast` ...) (...) failing_example3 = \ @ s_azo -> Sequence (...) (...) }}} We would hope that this rule would match {{{ Sequence (Sequence a b) c = Sequence a (Sequence b c) }}} So this is the same issue as in the artificial example but now additionally there's a `cast` in the way in the subterm. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10417> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #10062: Codegen on sequential FFI calls is not very good

#10062: Codegen on sequential FFI calls is not very good -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: chadaustin | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.3 (CodeGen) | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Keywords: | Type of failure: Runtime Architecture: | performance bug Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Test Case: | Related Tickets: Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- I'm writing a library for efficiently building up a byte buffer. The fastest approach I've found is via FFI, with restricted effects like ST. It's over twice as fast as ByteString Builder. Consider this example API usage: https://github.com/chadaustin/buffer- builder/blob/6bd0a39c56f63ab751faf29f9784ac87d52638be/bench/Bench.hs#L46 It compiles into an instruction sequence containing direct, sequenced FFI calls. For example, the last three calls work out to: addq $8,%rsp movq %rbx,%rdi movq 72(%rsp),%rax movq %rax,%rsi subq $8,%rsp movl $0,%eax call bw_append_bsz addq $8,%rsp movq %rbx,%rdi movl $35,%esi subq $8,%rsp movl $0,%eax call bw_append_byte addq $8,%rsp movq %rbx,%rdi movq 64(%rsp),%rax movq %rax,%rsi subq $8,%rsp movl $0,%eax call bw_append_bsz I don't know why rsp is being changed so much. I also can't explain the assignment to eax before the call. (It should also be xorl eax,eax, I would think.) To my reading, the above instruction sequence could be reduced to: movq %rbx,%rdi movq 64(%rsp),%rsi call bw_append_bsz movq %rbx,%rdi movl $35,%esi call bw_append_byte movq %rbx,%rdi movq 56(%rsp),%rsi call bw_append_bsz To reproduce, check out git@github.com:chadaustin/buffer-builder.git at revision 6bd0a39c56f63ab751faf29f9784ac87d52638be cabal configure --enable-benchmarks cabal bench And then look at the ./dist/build/bench/bench-tmp/bench/Bench.dump-asm file. This is specifically on OS X 64-bit with GHC 7.8.3, but I saw similar code generation on GHC 7.6 on Linux 64-bit. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10062> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

If we install {{{mylib}}}, compile {{{myexe}}}, then change mylib's code to {{{myfun = putStrLn "output 2"}}}, re-install it, and then compile {{{myexe}}}, then GHC does not notice that the library code changed. It avoids re-linking myexe, with the result that the program prints {{{output 1}}} when you told it to compile against code that prints {{{output 2}}}. ---- Note that I had to use {{{NOINLINE myfun}}} to trigger the bug, since otherwise {{{myfun}}}'s code would have ended up in the interface file, thus changing the package ID, which naturally forces GHC to relink (even re-compile). With the {{{NOINLINE}}}, the package IDs of the two different versions of {{{myfun}}} are completely identical. I think that is correct, since the package ID only hashes the API and ABI, not the actual implementation, right? How does GHC decide when to relink? I think in the present case, it doesn't notice that the object/archive file of the library changed. Does it check that somehow? Just looking at API and API can't be enough to make a decision for linking. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10161> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

This is a problem, since Distributions like Debian (I don't know about other distributions) don't include unversioned .SOs in their runtime packages and the unversioned are only available in the -dev packages as a symlink to the verioned ones. This means FFI libraries depend on the -dev packages, even though they don't really need them. It would be nice if GHC would try to load the versioned libraries as well.
