#15069: Missed SpecConstr opportunity -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.6.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.2.2 Keywords: SpecConstr | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- If you look at the final Core for `Csg.calc` in `nofib/real/fulsom` you'll see missed opportunities for `SpecConstr`. It has nested join points which look like this: {{{ join j (x :: Double) = Board (case x of { D# y -> ... }) ... in ....(j (D# v)).... }}} So the call to $j$ ends up with an explicit `(D# v)` argument, and `SpecConstr` should catch it. But alas it does not because this happends nestedly, and `SpecConstr` is worried about exponential blowup. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15069 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
