[GHC] #14381: Consider making ghc-pkg fill in abi-depends based on depends

#14381: Consider making ghc-pkg fill in abi-depends based on depends -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: Component: ghc-pkg | Version: 8.2.1 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: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- In GHC 8.2, we introduced `abi-depends` to solve #12485. Following the same pattern as all ghc-pkg fields, this field is to be fllled by whoever is performing the registration. I now suspect designing it this way was a mistake. In https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/4728 we have a bug where Cabal is writing nonsense data for `abi-depends`, `ghc-pkg` isn't noticing it, and GHC is rejecting the package (with a "shadow" warning) when it gets to the end. The problem is the Cabal aggressively caches the contents of the package database (ostensibly because it is expensive to query `ghc-pkg`); this means that it is easy to get into a situation where its understanding of the ABIs of its dependencies is out-of-date (because it is not re- reading the database in order to get newer information). The insult to the injury is, in most cases, ghc-pkg already knows what the ABIs are supposed to be: they're whatever the ABIs of the packages pointed at by 'depends' already in the database are. So ghc-pkg could have computed the abi dependency itself, and prevented this stale data situation from ever happening. This sounds quite attractive to me. What do people think? Here is one possible proposal (but it is just one in the space): * `ghc-pkg` will be modified to ignore the `abi-depends` field (perhaps with a warning), to prevent itself from being poisoned by buggy versions of Cabal which are giving bad ABI information * Instead, `ghc-pkg` generates the `abi-depends` field by looking up dependency IDs from the database. If an ID is not found, it omits the dep from `abi-depends` (this is equivalent to suspending ABI checking in GHC, so this won't break anything; it will just make ABI checking less robust) * Possibly, introduce a new "virtual" field, which can be used to override `ghc-pkg` default -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14381> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
