#14242: Ticks and join points don't play well -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | 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: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Currently the presence of ticks appear to inhibit our ability to discover join points as described by this comment in `OccurAnal.occAnal`, {{{#!hs usage_lam = markAllNonTailCalled (markAllInsideLam usage) -- TODO There may be ways to make ticks and join points play -- nicer together, but right now there are problems: -- let j x = ... in tick<t> (j 1) -- Making j a join point may cause the simplifier to drop t -- (if the tick is put into the continuation). So we don't -- count j 1 as a tail call. }}} This causes spurious warnings when compiling with a `DEBUG` compiler and `-g` or profiling enabled. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14242 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
