#10675: GHC does not check the functional dependency consistency condition correctly -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | 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 | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Consider {{{ {-# LANGUAGE MultiParamTypeClasses, FunctionalDependencies, FlexibleInstances, UndecidableInstances, ScopedTypeVariables #-} class C a b | a -> b where op :: a -> b instance C [x] [x] instance {-# OVERLAPS #-} C x y => C [x] [Maybe y] f x = op [x] }}} Should these two instance declarations be accepted? They are simply ''inconsistent'' in the sense of Definition 6 of the [http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/simonpj/papers/fd- chr/jfp06.pdf FDs through CHRs paper]. Sadly GHC does not currently reject these as inconsistent. As a result it'll use ''both'' instance for improvement. In the definition of `f` for example we get {{{ C [alpha] beta }}} where `x:alpha` and the result type of `f` is `beta`. By using both instances for improvement we get {{{ C [Maybe gamma] [Maybe gamma] }}} Is that what we want? The two instances don't ''contradict'' each other, but neither do they agree as all published work on FDs says they should! Examples in the testsuite that exploit this loophole are {{{ ghci/scripts ghci047 polykinds T9106 typecheck/should_compile FD4 typecheck/should_compile T7875 }}} I'm not sure what the right thing here is. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10675> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #10854: Remove recursive uses of `pprParendHsExpr` from `HsExpr.ppr_expr`

#10854: Remove recursive uses of `pprParendHsExpr` from `HsExpr.ppr_expr` -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: goldfire | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 Keywords: newcomer | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- An `HsExpr` should look exactly as a user wrote some Haskell code. Its pretty printer should therefore be quite dumb. Just print out the code! But a few places in GHC create `HsExpr`s and aren't scrupulous with regard to adding `HsPar` nodes where source syntax would need them. Thus, well- meaning souls have added `pprParendExpr` calls to the `HsExpr` pretty- printer to try to cover these cases. Simon and I [https://phabricator.haskell.org/D1219#34199 think] that we should remove all recursive uses of `pprParendExpr` from the `HsExpr` pretty-printer and instead add the `HsPar`s where necessary. It was recently reported that the following test cases break when simply removing `pprParendExpr`: {{{ Unexpected failures: deriving/should_fail T4846 [stderr mismatch] (normal) generics GenDerivOutput [stderr mismatch] (normal) generics GenDerivOutput1_0 [stderr mismatch] (normal) generics GenDerivOutput1_1 [stderr mismatch] (normal) ghci/scripts T10248 [bad stderr] (ghci) indexed-types/should_compile PushedInAsGivens [stderr mismatch] (normal) safeHaskell/safeLanguage SafeLang10 [stderr mismatch] (normal) safeHaskell/safeLanguage SafeLang17 [stderr mismatch] (normal) typecheck/should_fail T8603 [stderr mismatch] (normal) typecheck/should_fail tcfail177 [stderr mismatch] (normal) }}} See also considerable commentary on Phab:D1114. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10854> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

It seems likely that the clean thing is {{{#!hs newtype UniqSet a = US (UniqFM a) }}} Unfortunately there's an awful lot of code using `UniqSet` and assuming it's the same as `UniqFM`. To make this work, we'd need to expand the `UniqSet` API somewhat and figure out what to do at use sites using it interchangeably with `UniqFM`. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13114> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
