The SimplCont represents the rest of the expression, "above" the point of interest. You can also think of a SimplCont as an "evaluation context", using that term in the way it is used for operational semantics. This is the way I usually think of it, For example you'll often see a syntax for evaluation context looking like C ::= [] | C e | case C of alts | C `cast` co That's the kind of thing we are doing here, and I use that syntax in the comments. Key points: * A SimplCont describes a *strict* context (just like evaluation contexts do). E.g. Just [] is not a SimplCont * A SimplCont describes a context that *does not* bind any variables. E.g. \x. [] is not a SimplCont \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Interesting call context] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We want to avoid inlining an expression where there can't possibly be any gain, such as in an argument position. Hence, if the continuation is interesting (eg. a case scrutinee, application etc.) then we inline, otherwise we don't. Previously some_benefit used to return True only if the variable was applied to some value arguments. This didn't work: let x = _coerce_ (T Int) Int (I# 3) in case _coerce_ Int (T Int) x of I# y -> .... we want to inline x, but can't see that it's a constructor in a case scrutinee position, and some_benefit is False. Another example: dMonadST = _/\_ t -> :Monad (g1 _@_ t, g2 _@_ t, g3 _@_ t) .... case dMonadST _@_ x0 of (a,b,c) -> .... we'd really like to inline dMonadST here, but we *don't* want to inline if the case expression is just case x of y { DEFAULT -> ... } since we can just eliminate this case instead (x is in WHNF). Similar applies when x is bound to a lambda expression. Hence contIsInteresting looks for case expressions with just a single default case. \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Inlining in gentle mode] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Something is inlined if (i) the sm_inline flag is on, AND (ii) the thing has an INLINE pragma, AND (iii) the thing is inlinable in the earliest phase. Example of why (iii) is important: {-# INLINE [~1] g #-} g = ... {-# INLINE f #-} f x = g (g x) If we were to inline g into f's inlining, then an importing module would never be able to do f e --> g (g e) ---> RULE fires because the InlineRule for f has had g inlined into it. On the other hand, it is bad not to do ANY inlining into an InlineRule, because then recursive knots in instance declarations don't get unravelled. However, *sometimes* SimplGently must do no call-site inlining at all (hence sm_inline = False). Before full laziness we must be careful not to inline wrappers, because doing so inhibits floating e.g. ...(case f x of ...)... ==> ...(case (case x of I# x# -> fw x#) of ...)... ==> ...(case x of I# x# -> case fw x# of ...)... and now the redex (f x) isn't floatable any more. The no-inlining thing is also important for Template Haskell. You might be compiling in one-shot mode with -O2; but when TH compiles a splice before running it, we don't want to use -O2. Indeed, we don't want to inline anything, because the byte-code interpreter might get confused about unboxed tuples and suchlike. Note [Simplifying inside InlineRules] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We must take care with simplification inside InlineRules (which come from INLINE pragmas). First, consider the following example let f = \pq -> BIG in let g = \y -> f y y {-# INLINE g #-} in ...g...g...g...g...g... Now, if that's the ONLY occurrence of f, it might be inlined inside g, and thence copied multiple times when g is inlined. HENCE we treat any occurrence in an InlineRule as a multiple occurrence, not a single one; see OccurAnal.addRuleUsage. Second, we do want *do* to some modest rules/inlining stuff in InlineRules, partly to eliminate senseless crap, and partly to break the recursive knots generated by instance declarations. However, suppose we have {-# INLINE f #-} f = meaning "inline f in phases p where activation (p) holds". Then what inlinings/rules can we apply to the copy of captured in f's InlineRule? Our model is that literally is substituted for f when it is inlined. So our conservative plan (implemented by updModeForInlineRules) is this: ------------------------------------------------------------- When simplifying the RHS of an InlineRule, set the phase to the phase in which the InlineRule first becomes active ------------------------------------------------------------- That ensures that a) Rules/inlinings that *cease* being active before p will not apply to the InlineRule rhs, consistent with it being inlined in its *original* form in phase p. b) Rules/inlinings that only become active *after* p will not apply to the InlineRule rhs, again to be consistent with inlining the *original* rhs in phase p. For example, {-# INLINE f #-} f x = ...g... {-# NOINLINE [1] g #-} g y = ... {-# RULE h g = ... #-} Here we must not inline g into f's RHS, even when we get to phase 0, because when f is later inlined into some other module we want the rule for h to fire. Similarly, consider {-# INLINE f #-} f x = ...g... g y = ... and suppose that there are auto-generated specialisations and a strictness wrapper for g. The specialisations get activation AlwaysActive, and the strictness wrapper get activation (ActiveAfter 0). So the strictness wrepper fails the test and won't be inlined into f's InlineRule. That means f can inline, expose the specialised call to g, so the specialisation rules can fire. A note about wrappers ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It's also important not to inline a worker back into a wrapper. A wrapper looks like wraper = inline_me (\x -> ...worker... ) Normally, the inline_me prevents the worker getting inlined into the wrapper (initially, the worker's only call site!). But, if the wrapper is sure to be called, the strictness analyser will mark it 'demanded', so when the RHS is simplified, it'll get an ArgOf continuation. \begin{code}

If this is the case we don't simplify the RHS first, but just inline it un-simplified. This is much better than first simplifying a perhaps-huge RHS and then inlining and re-simplifying it. Indeed, it can be at least quadratically better. Consider x1 = e1 x2 = e2[x1] x3 = e3[x2] ...etc... xN = eN[xN-1] We may end up simplifying e1 N times, e2 N-1 times, e3 N-3 times etc. This can happen with cascades of functions too: f1 = \x1.e1 f2 = \xs.e2[f1] f3 = \xs.e3[f3] ...etc... THE MAIN INVARIANT is this: ---- preInlineUnconditionally invariant ----- IF preInlineUnconditionally chooses to inline x = THEN doing the inlining should not change the occurrence info for the free vars of ---------------------------------------------- For example, it's tempting to look at trivial binding like x = y and inline it unconditionally. But suppose x is used many times, but this is the unique occurrence of y. Then inlining x would change y's occurrence info, which breaks the invariant. It matters: y might have a BIG rhs, which will now be dup'd at every occurrenc of x. Even RHSs labelled InlineMe aren't caught here, because there might be no benefit from inlining at the call site. [Sept 01] Don't unconditionally inline a top-level thing, because that can simply make a static thing into something built dynamically. E.g. x = (a,b) main = \s -> h x [Remember that we treat \s as a one-shot lambda.] No point in inlining x unless there is something interesting about the call site. But watch out: if you aren't careful, some useful foldr/build fusion can be lost (most notably in spectral/hartel/parstof) because the foldr didn't see the build. Doing the dynamic allocation isn't a big deal, in fact, but losing the fusion can be. But the right thing here seems to be to do a callSiteInline based on the fact that there is something interesting about the call site (it's strict). Hmm. That seems a bit fragile. Conclusion: inline top level things gaily until Phase 0 (the last phase), at which point don't. Note [pre/postInlineUnconditionally in gentle mode] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Even in gentle mode we want to do preInlineUnconditionally. The reason is that too little clean-up happens if you don't inline use-once things. Also a bit of inlining is *good* for full laziness; it can expose constant sub-expressions. Example in spectral/mandel/Mandel.hs, where the mandelset function gets a useful let-float if you inline windowToViewport However, as usual for Gentle mode, do not inline things that are inactive in the intial stages. See Note [Gentle mode]. Note [InlineRule and preInlineUnconditionally] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Surprisingly, do not pre-inline-unconditionally Ids with INLINE pragmas! Example {-# INLINE f #-} f :: Eq a => a -> a f x = ... fInt :: Int -> Int fInt = f Int dEqInt ...fInt...fInt...fInt... Here f occurs just once, in the RHS of f1. But if we inline it there we'll lose the opportunity to inline at each of fInt's call sites. The INLINE pragma will only inline when the application is saturated for exactly this reason; and we don't want PreInlineUnconditionally to second-guess it. A live example is Trac #3736. c.f. Note [InlineRule and postInlineUnconditionally] Note [Top-level botomming Ids] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Don't inline top-level Ids that are bottoming, even if they are used just once, because FloatOut has gone to some trouble to extract them out. Inlining them won't make the program run faster! Note [Do not inline CoVars unconditionally] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Coercion variables appear inside coercions, and the RHS of a let-binding is a term (not a coercion) so we can't necessarily inline the latter in the former. \begin{code}

If so, we can inline and discard the binding altogether. NB: a loop breaker has must_keep_binding = True and non-loop-breakers only have *forward* references. Hence, it's safe to discard the binding NOTE: This isn't our last opportunity to inline. We're at the binding site right now, and we'll get another opportunity when we get to the ocurrence(s) Note that we do this unconditional inlining only for trival RHSs. Don't inline even WHNFs inside lambdas; doing so may simply increase allocation when the function is called. This isn't the last chance; see NOTE above. NB: Even inline pragmas (e.g. IMustBeINLINEd) are ignored here Why? Because we don't even want to inline them into the RHS of constructor arguments. See NOTE above NB: At one time even NOINLINE was ignored here: if the rhs is trivial it's best to inline it anyway. We often get a=E; b=a from desugaring, with both a and b marked NOINLINE. But that seems incompatible with our new view that inlining is like a RULE, so I'm sticking to the 'active' story for now. \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Casts and lambdas] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider (\x. (\y. e) `cast` g1) `cast` g2 There is a danger here that the two lambdas look separated, and the full laziness pass might float an expression to between the two. So this equation in mkLam' floats the g1 out, thus: (\x. e `cast` g1) --> (\x.e) `cast` (tx -> g1) where x:tx. In general, this floats casts outside lambdas, where (I hope) they might meet and cancel with some other cast: \x. e `cast` co ===> (\x. e) `cast` (tx -> co) /\a. e `cast` co ===> (/\a. e) `cast` (/\a. co) /\g. e `cast` co ===> (/\g. e) `cast` (/\g. co) (if not (g `in` co)) Notice that it works regardless of 'e'. Originally it worked only if 'e' was itself a lambda, but in some cases that resulted in fruitless iteration in the simplifier. A good example was when compiling Text.ParserCombinators.ReadPrec, where we had a definition like (\x. Get `cast` g) where Get is a constructor with nonzero arity. Then mkLam eta-expanded the Get, and the next iteration eta-reduced it, and then eta-expanded it again. Note also the side condition for the case of coercion binders. It does not make sense to transform /\g. e `cast` g ==> (/\g.e) `cast` (/\g.g) because the latter is not well-kinded. %************************************************************************ %* * Eta expansion %* * %************************************************************************ \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Eta-expanding at let bindings] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We now eta expand at let-bindings, which is where the payoff comes. One useful consequence is this example: genMap :: C a => ... {-# INLINE genMap #-} genMap f xs = ... myMap :: D a => ... {-# INLINE myMap #-} myMap = genMap Notice that 'genMap' should only inline if applied to two arguments. In the InlineRule for myMap we'll have the unfolding (\d -> genMap Int (..d..)) We do not want to eta-expand to (\d f xs -> genMap Int (..d..) f xs) because then 'genMap' will inline, and it really shouldn't: at least as far as the programmer is concerned, it's not applied to two arguments! Note [Eta expansion to manifest arity] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Eta expansion does *not* eta-expand trivial RHSs, like x = y because these will get substituted out in short order. (Indeed we *eta-contract* if that yields a trivial RHS.) Otherwise we eta-expand to produce enough manifest lambdas. This *does* eta-expand partial applications. eg x = map g --> x = \v -> map g v y = \_ -> map g --> y = \_ v -> map g v One benefit this is that in the definition of y there was a danger that full laziness would transform to lvl = map g y = \_ -> lvl which is stupid. This doesn't happen in the eta-expanded form. Note [Arity analysis] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The motivating example for arity analysis is this: f = \x. let g = f (x+1) in \y. ...g... What arity does f have? Really it should have arity 2, but a naive look at the RHS won't see that. You need a fixpoint analysis which says it has arity "infinity" the first time round. This example happens a lot; it first showed up in Andy Gill's thesis, fifteen years ago! It also shows up in the code for 'rnf' on lists in Trac #4138. The analysis is easy to achieve because exprEtaExpandArity takes an argument type CheapFun = CoreExpr -> Maybe Type -> Bool used to decide if an expression is cheap enough to push inside a lambda. And exprIsCheap' in turn takes an argument type CheapAppFun = Id -> Int -> Bool which tells when an application is cheap. This makes it easy to write the analysis loop. The analysis is cheap-and-cheerful because it doesn't deal with mutual recursion. But the self-recursive case is the important one. %************************************************************************ %* * \subsection{Floating lets out of big lambdas} %* * %************************************************************************ Note [Floating and type abstraction] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider this: x = /\a. C e1 e2 We'd like to float this to y1 = /\a. e1 y2 = /\a. e2 x = /\a. C (y1 a) (y2 a) for the usual reasons: we want to inline x rather vigorously. You may think that this kind of thing is rare. But in some programs it is common. For example, if you do closure conversion you might get: data a :-> b = forall e. (e -> a -> b) :$ e f_cc :: forall a. a :-> a f_cc = /\a. (\e. id a) :$ () Now we really want to inline that f_cc thing so that the construction of the closure goes away. So I have elaborated simplLazyBind to understand right-hand sides that look like /\ a1..an. body and treat them specially. The real work is done in SimplUtils.abstractFloats, but there is quite a bit of plumbing in simplLazyBind as well. The same transformation is good when there are lets in the body: /\abc -> let(rec) x = e in b ==> let(rec) x' = /\abc -> let x = x' a b c in e in /\abc -> let x = x' a b c in b This is good because it can turn things like: let f = /\a -> letrec g = ... g ... in g into letrec g' = /\a -> ... g' a ... in let f = /\ a -> g' a which is better. In effect, it means that big lambdas don't impede let-floating. This optimisation is CRUCIAL in eliminating the junk introduced by desugaring mutually recursive definitions. Don't eliminate it lightly! [May 1999] If we do this transformation *regardless* then we can end up with some pretty silly stuff. For example, let st = /\ s -> let { x1=r1 ; x2=r2 } in ... in .. becomes let y1 = /\s -> r1 y2 = /\s -> r2 st = /\s -> ...[y1 s/x1, y2 s/x2] in .. Unless the "..." is a WHNF there is really no point in doing this. Indeed it can make things worse. Suppose x1 is used strictly, and is of the form x1* = case f y of { (a,b) -> e } If we abstract this wrt the tyvar we then can't do the case inline as we would normally do. That's why the whole transformation is part of the same process that floats let-bindings and constructor arguments out of RHSs. In particular, it is guarded by the doFloatFromRhs call in simplLazyBind. \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Abstract over coercions] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If a coercion variable (g :: a ~ Int) is free in the RHS, then so is the type variable a. Rather than sort this mess out, we simply bale out and abstract wrt all the type variables if any of them are coercion variables. Historical note: if you use let-bindings instead of a substitution, beware of this: -- Suppose we start with: -- -- x = /\ a -> let g = G in E -- -- Then we'll float to get -- -- x = let poly_g = /\ a -> G -- in /\ a -> let g = poly_g a in E -- -- But now the occurrence analyser will see just one occurrence -- of poly_g, not inside a lambda, so the simplifier will -- PreInlineUnconditionally poly_g back into g! Badk to square 1! -- (I used to think that the "don't inline lone occurrences" stuff -- would stop this happening, but since it's the *only* occurrence, -- PreInlineUnconditionally kicks in first!) -- -- Solution: put an INLINE note on g's RHS, so that poly_g seems -- to appear many times. (NB: mkInlineMe eliminates -- such notes on trivial RHSs, so do it manually.) %************************************************************************ %* * prepareAlts %* * %************************************************************************ prepareAlts tries these things: 1. Eliminate alternatives that cannot match, including the DEFAULT alternative. 2. If the DEFAULT alternative can match only one possible constructor, then make that constructor explicit. e.g. case e of x { DEFAULT -> rhs } ===> case e of x { (a,b) -> rhs } where the type is a single constructor type. This gives better code when rhs also scrutinises x or e. 3. Returns a list of the constructors that cannot holds in the DEFAULT alternative (if there is one) Here "cannot match" includes knowledge from GADTs It's a good idea to do this stuff before simplifying the alternatives, to avoid simplifying alternatives we know can't happen, and to come up with the list of constructors that are handled, to put into the IdInfo of the case binder, for use when simplifying the alternatives. Eliminating the default alternative in (1) isn't so obvious, but it can happen: data Colour = Red | Green | Blue f x = case x of Red -> .. Green -> .. DEFAULT -> h x h y = case y of Blue -> .. DEFAULT -> [ case y of ... ] If we inline h into f, the default case of the inlined h can't happen. If we don't notice this, we may end up filtering out *all* the cases of the inner case y, which give us nowhere to go! \begin{code}

                    _     -> []
\end{code} Note [Combine identical alterantives] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If several alternatives are identical, merge them into a single DEFAULT alternative. I've occasionally seen this making a big difference: case e of =====> case e of C _ -> f x D v -> ....v.... D v -> ....v.... DEFAULT -> f x DEFAULT -> f x The point is that we merge common RHSs, at least for the DEFAULT case. [One could do something more elaborate but I've never seen it needed.] To avoid an expensive test, we just merge branches equal to the *first* alternative; this picks up the common cases a) all branches equal b) some branches equal to the DEFAULT (which occurs first) The case where Combine Identical Alternatives transformation showed up was like this (base/Foreign/C/Err/Error.lhs): x | p `is` 1 -> e1 | p `is` 2 -> e2 ...etc... where @is@ was something like p `is` n = p /= (-1) && p == n This gave rise to a horrible sequence of cases case p of (-1) -> $j p 1 -> e1 DEFAULT -> $j p and similarly in cascade for all the join points! NB: it's important that all this is done in [InAlt], *before* we work on the alternatives themselves, because Simpify.simplAlt may zap the occurrence info on the binders in the alternatives, which in turn defeats combineIdenticalAlts (see Trac #7360). \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Dead binders] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Note that dead-ness is maintained by the simplifier, so that it is accurate after simplification as well as before. Note [Cascading case merge] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Case merging should cascade in one sweep, because it happens bottom-up case e of a { DEFAULT -> case a of b DEFAULT -> case b of c { DEFAULT -> e A -> ea B -> eb C -> ec ==> case e of a { DEFAULT -> case a of b DEFAULT -> let c = b in e A -> let c = b in ea B -> eb C -> ec ==> case e of a { DEFAULT -> let b = a in let c = b in e A -> let b = a in let c = b in ea B -> let b = a in eb C -> ec However here's a tricky case that we still don't catch, and I don't see how to catch it in one pass: case x of c1 { I# a1 -> case a1 of c2 -> 0 -> ... DEFAULT -> case x of c3 { I# a2 -> case a2 of ... After occurrence analysis (and its binder-swap) we get this case x of c1 { I# a1 -> let x = c1 in -- Binder-swap addition case a1 of c2 -> 0 -> ... DEFAULT -> case x of c3 { I# a2 -> case a2 of ... When we simplify the inner case x, we'll see that x=c1=I# a1. So we'll bind a2 to a1, and get case x of c1 { I# a1 -> case a1 of c2 -> 0 -> ... DEFAULT -> case a1 of ... This is corect, but we can't do a case merge in this sweep because c2 /= a1. Reason: the binding c1=I# a1 went inwards without getting changed to c1=I# c2. I don't think this is worth fixing, even if I knew how. It'll all come out in the next pass anyway.
