#12218: Implement -fexternal-interpreter via static linking -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonmar | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- An interesting idea from @hvr. When using `-fexternal-interpreter`, we can statically link the required packages and object files into a new iconv binary, and use that as our external interpreter. This would mean we could support TH and even limited GHCi without needing a dynamic linker of any kind, which is extremely cool. Apparently this would be useful for AIX where doing dynamic linking is hard. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12218> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #11786: Need -fno-print-explicit-runtime-reps to work on IfaceType, else RuntimeRep leaks

#11786: Need -fno-print-explicit-runtime-reps to work on IfaceType, else RuntimeRep leaks -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- After #11549, we are suppose not to show `RuntimeRep` to users, when `-fno-print-explicit-runtime-reps` is on. But we do: {{{ :info ($) Prelude> :i ($) ($) :: forall (r :: GHC.Types.RuntimeRep) a (b :: TYPE r). (a -> b) -> a -> b -- Defined in ‘GHC.Base’ }}} This happens because the runtime-rep-suppression happens on `Type`, but for `:info` we use `pprInfo` which uses `tyThingToIfaceDecl` and then prints it. And `tyThingToIfaceDecl` doesn't know about the `-fprint- explicit-runtime-reps` flag; and I'd like to keep it that way. We want to change `pprType` to convert to `IfaceType` and then print anyway. I suppose that this means that the pretty-printer for `IfaceType` needs to know about this runtime-rep suppression. That's a bit tiresome, but not impossible, especially since there is no shadowing to worry about. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11786> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

Based upon the output of cabal build -j4 -v3, it looks like the parallel build is spending a lottt more time in the simplifier passes. I'm not sure what changes between the parallel and sequential builds to change this. I'll try to dig into this more in a few days, but recording this problem now before i forget.

However, if I uncomment the `deriving Eq` I get: {{{ Bar.bar1 = GHC.Types.I# 72 Bar.bar2 = GHC.Classes.== @ GHC.Types.Int GHC.Classes.$fEqInt Bar.bar = \ (x_amD :: GHC.Types.Int) -> Bar.bar2 x_amD Bar.bar1 }}} Now `bar` looks like terrible code, using dictionaries, boxing etc. It seems adding `deriving` in the imported and unused module makes it ignore the optimisation level. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8635> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
