[GHC] #11513: Work out when GADT parameters should be specified

#11513: Work out when GADT parameters should be specified -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: goldfire | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple TypeApplications | Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Right now, there's not a clear specification of when GADT data constructor parameters should be specified, and what order they appear in. For example: {{{ data G a where MkG :: b -> a -> G a }}} To my eye, we should get `MkG :: forall b a. b -> a -> G a`. But GHC now gives `MkG :: a {b}. b -> a -> G a`. At least two things are going on here: 1. GHC puts all universals before existentials. 2. There is an outright bug in `mkDataCon` that makes existentials act as inferred variables, but only for the representation type, not the wrapper type. You can witness (2) by noting that the `b` magically becomes specified if you put a strictness annotation (thereby necessitating the construction of a wrapper) anywhere. I'm not sure what to do about (1), from a design standpoint. Here are some thoughts. A. Having universals always come before existentials is convenient in pattern matching. When we have type application in patterns, you'll want to match only on existentials, never universals. So keeping the existentials together makes some sense. The universals will be omitted from the match entirely. B. FC absolutely requires that the universals come first. So if we allow the user to reorder the variables, that will necessitate creating a wrapper. Are there performance implications? That would be sad. C. We could tread a middle path, where if the user writes a `forall`, they get the order requested. Otherwise, they get universals first (whose order is taken from the ordering in the `data` declaration head) followed by existentials (whose order is taken from left-to-right first occurrence in the constructor type signature). But this is different than for functions, where we always use left-to-right ordering, even when lacking a `forall`. I tend to think that we should always just do what the user asks, but I'm worried about performance implications of this decision. It will make wrappers necessary for existential constructors that otherwise don't need them. Note that this whole debate is about only GADT constructors, not Haskell98 ones. Haskell98 constructors will always have universals before existentials, because that's quite obvious from the way they're declared. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11513> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#12780: Calling "do nothing" type checker plugin affects type checking when it shouldn't -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: clinton | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: GHC rejects Unknown/Multiple | valid program Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- The following has been compiled against ghc version 8.1.20161022, my apologies if this bug has already been fixed. The following program compiles fine: {{{#!hs {-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilyDependencies #-} {-# LANGUAGE AllowAmbiguousTypes #-} {-# LANGUAGE ConstraintKinds #-} main :: IO () main = return () type family F p = t | t -> p type IsF p t = (C p, t ~ F p) class C p where f :: (IsF p t) => t f = undefined g :: (IsF p t) => t g = f }}} But if we define a "do nothing" type checker plugin like so: {{{#!hs {-# OPTIONS_GHC -dynamic-too #-} module MyPlugin (plugin) where import Plugins ( Plugin(tcPlugin), defaultPlugin, tcPlugin ) import TcRnTypes ( TcPlugin(TcPlugin), tcPluginInit, tcPluginSolve, tcPluginStop, TcPluginSolver, TcPluginResult(TcPluginContradiction, TcPluginOk) ) plugin :: Plugin plugin = defaultPlugin { tcPlugin = const (Just myPlugin) } myPlugin :: TcPlugin myPlugin = TcPlugin { tcPluginInit = return (), tcPluginSolve = const solver, tcPluginStop = const (return ()) } solver :: TcPluginSolver solver _ _ _ = return $ TcPluginOk [] [] }}} And call it from our original source file by adding: {{{#!hs {-# OPTIONS_GHC -fplugin MyPlugin #-} }}} We get the following error: {{{ pluginbug.hs:18:5: error: • Could not deduce (C p0, t ~ F p0) arising from a use of ‘f’ from the context: IsF p t bound by the type signature for: g :: IsF p t => t at pluginbug.hs:17:1-19 The type variable ‘p0’ is ambiguous Relevant bindings include g :: t (bound at pluginbug.hs:18:1) • In the expression: f In an equation for ‘g’: g = f }}} Note that not just calling my "do nothing" type checking plugin does this, to be sure, instead I called `ghc-typelits-natnormalise` like so: {{{#!hs {-# OPTIONS_GHC -fplugin GHC.TypeLits.Normalise #-} }}} And the same error results. One solution is to remove `(C p)` from the `IsF` type declaration, and instead adding it to `g`s definition, like so: {{{#!hs --type IsF p t = (C p, t ~ F p) type IsF p t = (t ~ F p) --g :: (IsF p t) => t g :: (C p, IsF p t) => t }}} But I'm unsure why this should be necessary, and I certainly don't think this should only be necessary if one calls a type checker plugin. Note that the error requires a type checking plugin to be called, if one does not override `defaultPlugin` like so: {{{#!hs plugin = defaultPlugin { tcPlugin = const (Just myPlugin) } }}} and instead just does: {{{#!hs plugin = defaultPlugin }}} then the issue will not occur. So in summary, it seems that calling a type checking plugin somehow affects ordinary type checking. I don't think this should happen. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12780> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

I am not sure if this is intended, but according to the description of the wiki page (Plugins/TypeChecker) this should always be called. === Test plugin `MyPlugin.hs`: {{{#!hs module MyPlugin ( plugin ) where import Plugins import TcRnTypes import TcPluginM plugin :: Plugin plugin = defaultPlugin { tcPlugin = \clos -> Just $ TcPlugin { tcPluginInit = tcPluginIO $ putStrLn ">>> Plugin Init" , tcPluginSolve = \_ _ _ _ -> do tcPluginIO $ putStrLn ">>> Plugin Solve" return $ TcPluginOk [] [] , tcPluginStop = \_ -> tcPluginIO $ putStrLn ">>> Plugin Stop" } } }}} === Minimal example (with type error) `Main.hs`: {{{#!hs {-# OPTIONS_GHC -fplugin MyPlugin #-} module Main where main :: (Monad m) => m () main = do return 1 }}} Compiling this will lead to the following output: {{{ $ ~/ghc/inplace/bin/ghc-stage2 --make -package ghc-7.11.20150209 -dynamic Main.hs [2 of 2] Compiling Main ( Main.hs, Main.o ) >>> Plugin Init >>> Plugin Solve >>> Plugin Solve >>> Plugin Solve Main.hs:6:10: Could not deduce (Num ()) arising from the literal ‘1’ from the context: Monad m bound by the type signature for: main :: Monad m => m () at Main.hs:4:9-25 In the first argument of ‘return’, namely ‘1’ In a stmt of a 'do' block: return 1 In the expression: do { return 1 } }}} Which means `tcPluginStop` was _not_ called. === Minimal example (without type error) `Main.hs`: {{{#!hs {-# OPTIONS_GHC -fplugin MyPlugin #-} module Main where main :: (Monad m) => m () main = do return () }}} Compiling this will lead to the following output: {{{ $ ~/ghc/inplace/bin/ghc-stage2 --make -package ghc-7.11.20150209 -dynamic Main.hs [2 of 2] Compiling Main ( Main.hs, Main.o ) [MyPlugin changed] >>> Plugin Init >>> Plugin Solve >>> Plugin Solve >>> Plugin Stop Linking Main ... }}} Which means `tcPluginStop` _was_ called. === Possible solution As far as I can see, the solution to this should be to change the plugin code at the bottom of `typechecker/TcRnDriver.hs` from {{{#!hs withTcPlugins :: HscEnv -> TcM a -> TcM a withTcPlugins hsc_env m = do plugins <- liftIO (loadTcPlugins hsc_env) case plugins of [] -> m -- Common fast case _ -> do (solvers,stops) <- unzip `fmap` mapM startPlugin plugins res <- updGblEnv (\e -> e { tcg_tc_plugins = solvers }) m mapM_ runTcPluginM stops return res where startPlugin (TcPlugin start solve stop) = do s <- runTcPluginM start return (solve s, stop s) }}} to {{{#!hs withTcPlugins :: HscEnv -> TcM a -> TcM a withTcPlugins hsc_env m = do plugins <- liftIO (loadTcPlugins hsc_env) case plugins of [] -> m -- Common fast case _ -> do (solvers,stops) <- unzip `fmap` mapM startPlugin plugins eitherRes <- tryM $ do updGblEnv (\e -> e { tcg_tc_plugins = solvers }) m mapM_ runTcPluginM stops case eitherRes of Left e -> failM Right res -> return res where startPlugin (TcPlugin start solve stop) = do s <- runTcPluginM start return (solve s, stop s) }}} . I have tried this. It compiles and my minimal example delivers the correct result. Are there any arguments against this change?
