[GHC] #7589: LLVM 3.2 Support

We need to update the backend to support it. There seems to be a number of new bugs due to the change. With LLVM 3.1 we get the following testsuite failures: {{{ OVERALL SUMMARY for test run started at Mon Jan 14 21:42:32 PST 2013 3552 total tests, which gave rise to 13164 test cases, of which 0 caused framework failures 11606 were skipped 1515 expected passes 23 had missing libraries 15 expected failures 0 unexpected passes 5 unexpected failures Unexpected failures: * codeGen/should_run cgrun044 [exit code non-0] (optllvm) * concurrent/should_run 367_letnoescape [bad exit code] (optllvm) * numeric/should_run arith005 [bad stdout] (optllvm) typecheck/should_compile tc226 [exit code non-0] (optllvm) typecheck/should_compile tc235 [exit code non-0] (optllvm) }}} Where the failures marked with '*' are unique to the LLVM backend. With LLVM 3.2 we get the following: {{{ OVERALL SUMMARY for test run started at Tue Jan 15 16:02:01 PST 2013 3552 total tests, which gave rise to 13164 test cases, of which 0 caused framework failures 11606 were skipped 1512 expected passes 23 had missing libraries 15 expected failures 0 unexpected passes 8 unexpected failures Unexpected failures: ** codeGen/should_compile 1916 [exit code non-0] (optllvm) ** codeGen/should_run cgrun028 [exit code non-0] (optllvm) * codeGen/should_run cgrun044 [exit code non-0] (optllvm) * concurrent/should_run 367_letnoescape [bad exit code] (optllvm) * numeric/should_run arith005 [bad stdout] (optllvm) ** numeric/should_run numrun012 [exit code non-0] (optllvm) typecheck/should_compile tc226 [exit code non-0] (optllvm) typecheck/should_compile tc235 [exit code non-0] (optllvm) }}} Where failures marked with '*' are unique to the LLVM backend and failures marked with '**' are unique to LLVM 3.2 relative to 3.1. I believe bootstrapping with LLVM also fails now. However, that may be due to the change to the new-code-generator, and not of LLVM 3.1 -> 3.2. I'll create a separate ticket for that. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7589> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

For example, if we have {{{ foo :: Proxy Bool -> Proxy a -> Proxy (F Bool a) foo _ _ = P bar = sDFMap foo }}} the call to {{{sDFMap}}} is well defined, with {{{f ~ Bool}}}. If the type signature for {{{foo}}} did not specify the value of {{{f}}}, the call to {{{sDFMap}}} would indeed be ambiguous and should be rejected.

Re: [GHC] #427: Random.StdGen slowness

#427: Random.StdGen slowness --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: remit | Owner: rrnewton Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: _|_ Component: libraries/random | Version: Resolution: None | Keywords: Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: Runtime performance bug | Difficulty: Unknown Testcase: | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment(by joell): This ticket seems to be almost describing two separate issues: the performance of the random package and the "thunk-bomb" problem in `getStdRandom`. While I admit I haven't looked into the performance aspect, I am now well acquainted with the "thunk-bomb" aspect. Turns out a metrics library we were using at my company made a `randomRIO` call that in some cases (all of them in our configuration) wouldn't actually use the generated random value. This led to me spending a few days trying to figure out why our services were consuming and retaining gigabytes of memory. (For those interested in case studies, the discussion with the metrics library folks is here: https://github.com/brendanhay/network-metrics/issues/4 .) So I would like to petition that the change Remi suggested in comment:17 to make `getStdRandom` strict (or something along those lines) be made. To my mind (heavily biased by the experience of the last few days), I wouldn't really consider the "thunk-bomb" aspect a performance problem so much as a stability one. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/427#comment:20> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
