It's tiresome to ensure that this information is fully evaluated everywhere that we produce it, so we just run a single seqBinds over the output before returning it, to ensure that there are no references holding on to the input Core program. This makes a ~30% reduction in peak memory usage when compiling DynFlags (cf #9675 and #13426). This is particularly important when we are doing late demand analysis, since we don't do a seqBinds at any point thereafter. Hence code generation would hold on to an extra copy of the Core program, via unforced thunks in demand or strictness information; and it is the most memory-intensive part of the compilation process, so this added seqBinds makes a big difference in peak memory usage. Note [Analysing top-level bindings] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider a CoreProgram like e1 = ... n1 = ... e2 = \a b -> ... fst (n1 a b) ... n2 = \c d -> ... snd (e2 c d) ... ... where e* are exported, but n* are not. Intuitively, we can see that @n1@ is only ever called with two arguments and in every call site, the first component of the result of the call is evaluated. Thus, we'd like it to have idDemandInfo @LCL(CM(P(1L,A))@. NB: We may *not* give e2 a similar annotation, because it is exported and external callers might use it in arbitrary ways, expressed by 'topDmd'. This can then be exploited by Nested CPR and eta-expansion, see Note [Why care for top-level demand annotations?]. How do we get this result? Answer: By analysing the program as if it was a let expression of this form: let e1 = ... in let n1 = ... in let e2 = ... in let n2 = ... in (e1,e2, ...) E.g. putting all bindings in nested lets and returning all exported binders in a tuple. Of course, we will not actually build that CoreExpr! Instead we faithfully simulate analysis of said expression by adding the free variable 'DmdEnv' of @e*@'s strictness signatures to the 'DmdType' we get from analysing the nested bindings. And even then the above form blows up analysis performance in T10370: If @e1@ uses many free variables, we'll unnecessarily carry their demands around with us from the moment we analyse the pair to the moment we bubble back up to the binding for @e1@. So instead we analyse as if we had let e1 = ... in (e1, let n1 = ... in ( let e2 = ... in (e2, let n2 = ... in ( ...)))) That is, a series of right-nested pairs, where the @fst@ are the exported binders of the last enclosing let binding and @snd@ continues the nested lets. Variables occurring free in RULE RHSs are to be handled the same as exported Ids. See also Note [Absence analysis for stable unfoldings and RULES]. Note [Why care for top-level demand annotations?] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Reading Note [Analysing top-level bindings], you might think that we go through quite some trouble to get useful demands for top-level bindings. They can never be strict, for example, so why bother? First, we get to eta-expand top-level bindings that we weren't able to eta-expand before without Call Arity. From T18894b: module T18894b (f) where eta :: Int -> Int -> Int eta x = if fst (expensive x) == 13 then \y -> ... else \y -> ... f m = ... eta m 2 ... eta 2 m ... Since only @f@ is exported, we see all call sites of @eta@ and can eta-expand to arity 2. The call demands we get for some top-level bindings will also allow Nested CPR to unbox deeper. From T18894: module T18894 (h) where g m n = (2 * m, 2 `div` n) {-# NOINLINE g #-} h :: Int -> Int h m = ... snd (g m 2) ... uncurry (+) (g 2 m) ... Only @h@ is exported, hence we see that @g@ is always called in contexts were we also force the division in the second component of the pair returned by @g@. This allows Nested CPR to evaluate the division eagerly and return an I# in its position. -} {- ************************************************************************ * * \subsection{The analyser itself} * * ************************************************************************ -} -- | Analyse a binding group and its \"body\", e.g. where it is in scope. -- -- It calls a function that knows how to analyse this \"body\" given -- an 'AnalEnv' with updated demand signatures for the binding group -- (reflecting their 'idStrictnessInfo') and expects to receive a -- 'DmdType' in return, which it uses to annotate the binding group with their -- 'idDemandInfo'. dmdAnalBind :: TopLevelFlag -> AnalEnv -> SubDemand -- ^ Demand put on the "body" -- (important for join points) -> CoreBind -> (AnalEnv -> (DmdType, a)) -- ^ How to analyse the "body", e.g. -- where the binding is in scope -> (DmdType, CoreBind, a) dmdAnalBind top_lvl env dmd bind anal_body = case bind of NonRec id rhs | useLetUp top_lvl id -> dmdAnalBindLetUp top_lvl env id rhs anal_body _ -> dmdAnalBindLetDown top_lvl env dmd bind anal_body -- | Annotates uninteresting top level functions ('isInterestingTopLevelFn') -- with 'topDmd', the rest with the given demand. setBindIdDemandInfo :: TopLevelFlag -> Id -> Demand -> Id setBindIdDemandInfo top_lvl id dmd = setIdDemandInfo id $ case top_lvl of TopLevel | not (isInterestingTopLevelFn id) -> topDmd _ -> dmd -- | Let bindings can be processed in two ways: -- Down (RHS before body) or Up (body before RHS). -- This function handles the up variant. -- -- It is very simple.

The "A" means "absent", so this expression will never be needed. What should happen? There are several wrinkles: * We *do* want to analyse the expression regardless. Reason: Note [Always analyse in virgin pass] But we can post-process the results to ignore all the usage demands coming back. This is done by multDmdType. * In a previous incarnation of GHC we needed to be extra careful in the case of an *unlifted type*, because unlifted values are evaluated even if they are not used. Example (see #9254): f :: (() -> (# Int#, () #)) -> () -- Strictness signature is -- -- I.e. calls k, but discards first component of result f k = case k () of (# _, r #) -> r g :: Int -> () g y = f (\n -> (# case y of I# y2 -> y2, n #)) Here f's strictness signature says (correctly) that it calls its argument function and ignores the first component of its result. This is correct in the sense that it'd be fine to (say) modify the function so that always returned 0# in the first component. But in function g, we *will* evaluate the 'case y of ...', because it has type Int#. So 'y' will be evaluated. So we must record this usage of 'y', else 'g' will say 'y' is absent, and will w/w so that 'y' is bound to an aBSENT_ERROR thunk. However, the argument of toSubDmd always satisfies the let/app invariant; so if it is unlifted it is also okForSpeculation, and so can be evaluated in a short finite time -- and that rules out nasty cases like the one above. (I'm not quite sure why this was a problem in an earlier version of GHC, but it isn't now.) Note [Always analyse in virgin pass] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tricky point: make sure that we analyse in the 'virgin' pass. Consider rec { f acc x True = f (...rec { g y = ...g... }...) f acc x False = acc } In the virgin pass for 'f' we'll give 'f' a very strict (bottom) type. That might mean that we analyse the sub-expression containing the E = "...rec g..." stuff in a bottom demand. Suppose we *didn't analyse* E, but just returned botType. Then in the *next* (non-virgin) iteration for 'f', we might analyse E in a weaker demand, and that will trigger doing a fixpoint iteration for g. But *because it's not the virgin pass* we won't start g's iteration at bottom. Disaster. (This happened in $sfibToList' of nofib/spectral/fibheaps.) So in the virgin pass we make sure that we do analyse the expression at least once, to initialise its signatures. Note [Which scrutinees may throw precise exceptions] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is the specification of 'exprMayThrowPreciseExceptions', which is important for Scenario 2 of Note [Precise exceptions and strictness analysis] in GHC.Types.Demand. For an expression @f a1 ... an :: ty@ we determine that 1. False If ty is *not* @State# RealWorld@ or an unboxed tuple thereof. This check is done by 'forcesRealWorld'. (Why not simply unboxed pairs as above? This is motivated by T13380{d,e}.) 2. False If f is a PrimOp, and it is *not* raiseIO# 3. False If f is an unsafe FFI call ('PlayRisky') _. True Otherwise "give up". It is sound to return False in those cases, because 1. We don't give any guarantees for unsafePerformIO, so no precise exceptions from pure code. 2. raiseIO# is the only primop that may throw a precise exception. 3. Unsafe FFI calls may not interact with the RTS (to throw, for example). See haddock on GHC.Types.ForeignCall.PlayRisky. We *need* to return False in those cases, because 1. We would lose too much strictness in pure code, all over the place. 2. We would lose strictness for primops like getMaskingState#, which introduces a substantial regression in GHC.IO.Handle.Internals.wantReadableHandle. 3. We would lose strictness for code like GHC.Fingerprint.fingerprintData, where an intermittent FFI call to c_MD5Init would otherwise lose strictness on the arguments len and buf, leading to regressions in T9203 (2%) and i386's haddock.base (5%). Tested by T13380f. In !3014 we tried a more sophisticated analysis by introducing ConOrDiv (nic) to the Divergence lattice, but in practice it turned out to be hard to untaint from 'topDiv' to 'conDiv', leading to bugs, performance regressions and complexity that didn't justify the single fixed testcase T13380c. Note [Demand on the scrutinee of a product case] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When figuring out the demand on the scrutinee of a product case, we use the demands of the case alternative, i.e. id_dmds. But note that these include the demand on the case binder; see Note [Demand on case-alternative binders] in GHC.Types.Demand. This is crucial. Example: f x = case x of y { (a,b) -> k y a } If we just take scrut_demand = 1P(L,A), then we won't pass x to the worker, so the worker will rebuild x = (a, absent-error) and that'll crash. Note [Aggregated demand for cardinality] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FIXME: This Note should be named [LetUp vs. LetDown] and probably predates said separation. SG We use different strategies for strictness and usage/cardinality to "unleash" demands captured on free variables by bindings. Let us consider the example: f1 y = let {-# NOINLINE h #-} h = y in (h, h) We are interested in obtaining cardinality demand U1 on |y|, as it is used only in a thunk, and, therefore, is not going to be updated any more. Therefore, the demand on |y|, captured and unleashed by usage of |h| is U1. However, if we unleash this demand every time |h| is used, and then sum up the effects, the ultimate demand on |y| will be U1 + U1 = U. In order to avoid it, we *first* collect the aggregate demand on |h| in the body of let-expression, and only then apply the demand transformer: transf[x](U) = {y |-> U1} so the resulting demand on |y| is U1. The situation is, however, different for strictness, where this aggregating approach exhibits worse results because of the nature of |both| operation for strictness. Consider the example: f y c = let h x = y |seq| x in case of True -> h True False -> y It is clear that |f| is strict in |y|, however, the suggested analysis will infer from the body of |let| that |h| is used lazily (as it is used in one branch only), therefore lazy demand will be put on its free variable |y|. Conversely, if the demand on |h| is unleashed right on the spot, we will get the desired result, namely, that |f| is strict in |y|. ************************************************************************ * * Demand transformer * * ************************************************************************ -} dmdTransform :: AnalEnv -- ^ The strictness environment -> Id -- ^ The function -> SubDemand -- ^ The demand on the function -> DmdType -- ^ The demand type of the function in this context -- Returned DmdEnv includes the demand on -- this function plus demand on its free variables -- See Note [What are demand signatures?] in "GHC.Types.Demand" dmdTransform env var dmd -- Data constructors | isDataConWorkId var = dmdTransformDataConSig (idArity var) dmd -- Dictionary component selectors -- Used to be controlled by a flag. -- See #18429 for some perf measurements. | Just _ <- isClassOpId_maybe var = -- pprTrace "dmdTransform:DictSel" (ppr var $$ ppr dmd) $ dmdTransformDictSelSig (idStrictness var) dmd -- Imported functions | isGlobalId var , let res = dmdTransformSig (idStrictness var) dmd = -- pprTrace "dmdTransform:import" (vcat [ppr var, ppr (idStrictness var), ppr dmd, ppr res]) res -- Top-level or local let-bound thing for which we use LetDown ('useLetUp'). -- In that case, we have a strictness signature to unleash in our AnalEnv. | Just (sig, top_lvl) <- lookupSigEnv env var , let fn_ty = dmdTransformSig sig dmd = -- pprTrace "dmdTransform:LetDown" (vcat [ppr var, ppr sig, ppr dmd, ppr fn_ty]) $ case top_lvl of NotTopLevel -> addVarDmd fn_ty var (C_11 :* dmd) TopLevel | isInterestingTopLevelFn var -- Top-level things will be used multiple times or not at -- all anyway, hence the multDmd below: It means we don't -- have to track whether @var@ is used strictly or at most -- once, because ultimately it never will. -> addVarDmd fn_ty var (C_0N `multDmd` (C_11 :* dmd)) -- discard strictness | otherwise -> fn_ty -- don't bother tracking; just annotate with 'topDmd' later -- Everything else: -- * Local let binders for which we use LetUp (cf.

But for join points we can do better! We know that j's body will (if called at all) be evaluated with the demand that consumes the entire join-binding, in this case the argument demand from g. Whizzo! g evaluates both components of its argument pair, so p will certainly be evaluated if j is called. For f to be strict in p, we need /all/ paths to evaluate p; in this case the C branch does so too, so we are fine. So, as usual, we need to transport demands on free variables to the call site(s). Compare Note [Lazy and unleashable free variables]. The implementation is easy. When analysing a join point, we can analyse its body with the demand from the entire join-binding (written let_dmd here). Another win for join points! #13543. However, note that the strictness signature for a join point can look a little puzzling. E.g. (join j x = \y. error "urk") (in case v of ) ( A -> j 3 ) x ( B -> j 4 ) ( C -> \y. blah ) The entire thing is in a C1(L) context, so j's strictness signature will be [A]b meaning one absent argument, returns bottom. That seems odd because there's a \y inside. But it's right because when consumed in a C1(L) context the RHS of the join point is indeed bottom. Note [Demand signatures are computed for a threshold demand based on idArity] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We compute demand signatures assuming idArity incoming arguments to approximate behavior for when we have a call site with at least that many arguments. idArity is /at least/ the number of manifest lambdas, but might be higher for PAPs and trivial RHS (see Note [Demand analysis for trivial right-hand sides]). Because idArity of a function varies independently of its cardinality properties (cf. Note [idArity varies independently of dmdTypeDepth]), we implicitly encode the arity for when a demand signature is sound to unleash in its 'dmdTypeDepth' (cf. Note [Understanding DmdType and StrictSig] in GHC.Types.Demand). It is unsound to unleash a demand signature when the incoming number of arguments is less than that. See Note [What are demand signatures?] in GHC.Types.Demand for more details on soundness. Why idArity arguments? Because that's a conservative estimate of how many arguments we must feed a function before it does anything interesting with them. Also it elegantly subsumes the trivial RHS and PAP case. There might be functions for which we might want to analyse for more incoming arguments than idArity. Example: f x = if expensive then \y -> ... y ... else \y -> ... y ... We'd analyse `f` under a unary call demand C1(L), corresponding to idArity being 1. That's enough to look under the manifest lambda and find out how a unary call would use `x`, but not enough to look into the lambdas in the if branches. On the other hand, if we analysed for call demand C1(C1(L)), we'd get useful strictness info for `y` (and more precise info on `x`) and possibly CPR information, but * We would no longer be able to unleash the signature at unary call sites * Performing the worker/wrapper split based on this information would be implicitly eta-expanding `f`, playing fast and loose with divergence and even being unsound in the presence of newtypes, so we refrain from doing so. Also see Note [Don't eta expand in w/w] in GHC.Core.Opt.WorkWrap. Since we only compute one signature, we do so for arity 1. Computing multiple signatures for different arities (i.e., polyvariance) would be entirely possible, if it weren't for the additional runtime and implementation complexity. Note [idArity varies independently of dmdTypeDepth] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We used to check in GHC.Core.Lint that dmdTypeDepth <= idArity for a let-bound identifier. But that means we would have to zap demand signatures every time we reset or decrease arity. That's an unnecessary dependency, because * The demand signature captures a semantic property that is independent of what the binding's current arity is * idArity is analysis information itself, thus volatile * We already *have* dmdTypeDepth, wo why not just use it to encode the threshold for when to unleash the signature (cf. Note [Understanding DmdType and StrictSig] in GHC.Types.Demand) Consider the following expression, for example: (let go x y = `x` seq ... in go) |> co `go` might have a strictness signature of `<1L>`. The simplifier will identify `go` as a nullary join point through `joinPointBinding_maybe` and float the coercion into the binding, leading to an arity decrease: join go = (\x y -> `x` seq ...) |> co in go With the CoreLint check, we would have to zap `go`'s perfectly viable strictness signature. Note [Demand analysis for trivial right-hand sides] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider foo = plusInt |> co where plusInt is an arity-2 function with known strictness. Clearly we want plusInt's strictness to propagate to foo! But because it has no manifest lambdas, it won't do so automatically, and indeed 'co' might have type (Int->Int->Int) ~ T. Fortunately, GHC.Core.Opt.Arity gives 'foo' arity 2, which is enough for LetDown to forward plusInt's demand signature, and all is well (see Note [Newtype arity] in GHC.Core.Opt.Arity)! A small example is the test case NewtypeArity. Note [Absence analysis for stable unfoldings and RULES] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ticket #18638 shows that it's really important to do absence analysis for stable unfoldings. Consider g = blah f = \x. ...no use of g.... {- f's stable unfolding is f = \x. ...g... -} If f is ever inlined we use 'g'. But f's current RHS makes no use of 'g', so if we don't look at the unfolding we'll mark g as Absent, and transform to g = error "Entered absent value" f = \x. ... {- f's stable unfolding is f = \x. ...g... -} Now if f is subsequently inlined, we'll use 'g' and ... disaster. SOLUTION: if f has a stable unfolding, adjust its DmdEnv (the demands on its free variables) so that no variable mentioned in its unfolding is Absent. This is done by the function Demand.keepAliveDmdEnv. ALSO: do the same for Ids free in the RHS of any RULES for f. PS: You may wonder how it can be that f's optimised RHS has somehow discarded 'g', but when f is inlined we /don't/ discard g in the same way. I think a simple example is g = (a,b) f = \x. fst g {-# INLINE f #-} Now f's optimised RHS will be \x.a, but if we change g to (error "..") (since it is apparently Absent) and then inline (\x. fst g) we get disaster. But regardless, #18638 was a more complicated version of this, that actually happened in practice. Historical Note [Product demands for function body] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In 2013 I spotted this example, in shootout/binary_trees: Main.check' = \ b z ds. case z of z' { I# ip -> case ds_d13s of Main.Nil -> z' Main.Node s14k s14l s14m -> Main.check' (not b) (Main.check' b (case b { False -> I# (-# s14h s14k); True -> I# (+# s14h s14k) }) s14l) s14m } } } Here we *really* want to unbox z, even though it appears to be used boxed in the Nil case. Partly the Nil case is not a hot path. But more specifically, the whole function gets the CPR property if we do. That motivated using a demand of C1(C1(C1(P(L,L)))) for the RHS, where (solely because the result was a product) we used a product demand (albeit with lazy components) for the body. But that gives very silly behaviour -- see #17932. Happily it turns out now to be entirely unnecessary: we get good results with C1(C1(C1(L))). So I simply deleted the special case. -} {- ********************************************************************* * * Fixpoints * * ********************************************************************* -} -- Recursive bindings dmdFix :: TopLevelFlag -> AnalEnv -- Does not include bindings for this binding -> SubDemand -> [(Id,CoreExpr)] -> (AnalEnv, DmdEnv, [(Id,CoreExpr)]) -- Binders annotated with strictness info dmdFix top_lvl env let_dmd orig_pairs = loop 1 initial_pairs where -- See Note [Initialising strictness] initial_pairs | ae_virgin env = [(setIdStrictness id botSig, rhs) | (id, rhs) <- orig_pairs ] | otherwise = orig_pairs -- If fixed-point iteration does not yield a result we use this instead -- See Note [Safe abortion in the fixed-point iteration] abort :: (AnalEnv, DmdEnv, [(Id,CoreExpr)]) abort = (env, lazy_fv', zapped_pairs) where (lazy_fv, pairs') = step True (zapIdStrictness orig_pairs) -- Note [Lazy and unleashable free variables] non_lazy_fvs = plusVarEnvList $ map (strictSigDmdEnv . idStrictness . fst) pairs' lazy_fv' = lazy_fv `plusVarEnv` mapVarEnv (const topDmd) non_lazy_fvs zapped_pairs = zapIdStrictness pairs' -- The fixed-point varies the idStrictness field of the binders, and terminates if that -- annotation does not change any more. loop :: Int -> [(Id,CoreExpr)] -> (AnalEnv, DmdEnv, [(Id,CoreExpr)]) loop n pairs = -- pprTrace "dmdFix" (ppr n <+> vcat [ ppr id <+> ppr (idStrictness id) -- | (id,_)<- pairs]) $ loop' n pairs loop' n pairs | found_fixpoint = (final_anal_env, lazy_fv, pairs') | n == 10 = abort | otherwise = loop (n+1) pairs' where found_fixpoint = map (idStrictness . fst) pairs' == map (idStrictness . fst) pairs first_round = n == 1 (lazy_fv, pairs') = step first_round pairs final_anal_env = extendAnalEnvs top_lvl env (map fst pairs') step :: Bool -> [(Id, CoreExpr)] -> (DmdEnv, [(Id, CoreExpr)]) step first_round pairs = (lazy_fv, pairs') where -- In all but the first iteration, delete the virgin flag start_env | first_round = env | otherwise = nonVirgin env start = (extendAnalEnvs top_lvl start_env (map fst pairs), emptyDmdEnv) ((_,lazy_fv), pairs') = mapAccumL my_downRhs start pairs -- mapAccumL: Use the new signature to do the next pair -- The occurrence analyser has arranged them in a good order -- so this can significantly reduce the number of iterations needed my_downRhs (env, lazy_fv) (id,rhs) = -- pprTrace "my_downRhs" (ppr id $$ ppr (idStrictness id) $$ ppr sig) $ ((env', lazy_fv'), (id', rhs')) where (env', lazy_fv1, id', rhs') = dmdAnalRhsSig top_lvl Recursive env let_dmd id rhs lazy_fv' = plusVarEnv_C plusDmd lazy_fv lazy_fv1 zapIdStrictness :: [(Id, CoreExpr)] -> [(Id, CoreExpr)] zapIdStrictness pairs = [(setIdStrictness id nopSig, rhs) | (id, rhs) <- pairs ] {- Note [Safe abortion in the fixed-point iteration] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fixed-point iteration may fail to terminate. But we cannot simply give up and return the environment and code unchanged! We still need to do one additional round, for two reasons: * To get information on used free variables (both lazy and strict!) (see Note [Lazy and unleashable free variables]) * To ensure that all expressions have been traversed at least once, and any left-over strictness annotations have been updated. This final iteration does not add the variables to the strictness signature environment, which effectively assigns them 'nopSig' (see "getStrictness") Note [Trimming a demand to a type] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There are two reasons we sometimes trim a demand to match a type. 1. GADTs 2. Recursive products and widening More on both below. But the botttom line is: we really don't want to have a binder whose demand is more deeply-nested than its type "allows". So in findBndrDmd we call trimToType and findTypeShape to trim the demand on the binder to a form that matches the type Now to the reasons. For (1) consider f :: a -> Bool f x = case ... of A g1 -> case (x |> g1) of (p,q) -> ... B -> error "urk" where A,B are the constructors of a GADT. We'll get a 1P(L,L) demand on x from the A branch, but that's a stupid demand for x itself, which has type 'a'. Indeed we get ASSERTs going off (notably in splitUseProdDmd, #8569). For (2) consider data T = MkT Int T -- A recursive product f :: Int -> T -> Int f 0 _ = 0 f _ (MkT n t) = f n t Here f is lazy in T, but its *usage* is infinite: P(L,P(L,P(L, ...))). Notice that this happens because T is a product type, and is recrusive. If we are not careful, we'll fail to iterate to a fixpoint in dmdFix, and bale out entirely, which is inefficient and over-conservative. Worse, as we discovered in #18304, the size of the usages we compute can grow /exponentially/, so even 10 iterations costs far too much. Especially since we then discard the result. To avoid this we use the same findTypeShape function as for (1), but arrange that it trims the demand if it encounters the same type constructor twice (or three times, etc). We use our standard RecTcChecker mechanism for this -- see GHC.Core.Opt.WorkWrap.Utils.findTypeShape. This is usually call "widening". We could do it just in dmdFix, but since are doing this findTypeShape business /anyway/ because of (1), and it has all the right information to hand, it's extremely convenient to do it there. -} {- ********************************************************************* * * Strictness signatures and types * * ********************************************************************* -} unitDmdType :: DmdEnv -> DmdType unitDmdType dmd_env = DmdType dmd_env [] topDiv coercionDmdEnv :: Coercion -> DmdEnv coercionDmdEnv co = mapVarEnv (const topDmd) (getUniqSet $ coVarsOfCo co) -- The VarSet from coVarsOfCo is really a VarEnv Var addVarDmd :: DmdType -> Var -> Demand -> DmdType addVarDmd (DmdType fv ds res) var dmd = DmdType (extendVarEnv_C plusDmd fv var dmd) ds res addLazyFVs :: DmdType -> DmdEnv -> DmdType addLazyFVs dmd_ty lazy_fvs = dmd_ty `plusDmdType` mkPlusDmdArg lazy_fvs -- Using plusDmdType (rather than just plus'ing the envs) -- is vital.

But that lost lots of useful semantic strictness information, so now we analyse them like any other function, and pin strictness information on them. That in turn forces us to worker/wrapper them; see Note [Worker-wrapper for NOINLINE functions] in GHC.Core.Opt.WorkWrap. Note [Lazy and unleashable free variables] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We put the strict and once-used FVs in the DmdType of the Id, so that at its call sites we unleash demands on its strict fvs. An example is 'roll' in imaginary/wheel-sieve2 Something like this: roll x = letrec go y = if ... then roll (x-1) else x+1 in go ms We want to see that roll is strict in x, which is because go is called. So we put the DmdEnv for x in go's DmdType. Another example: f :: Int -> Int -> Int f x y = let t = x+1 h z = if z==0 then t else if z==1 then x+1 else x + h (z-1) in h y Calling h does indeed evaluate x, but we can only see that if we unleash a demand on x at the call site for t. Incidentally, here's a place where lambda-lifting h would lose the cigar --- we couldn't see the joint strictness in t/x ON THE OTHER HAND We don't want to put *all* the fv's from the RHS into the DmdType. Because * it makes the strictness signatures larger, and hence slows down fixpointing and * it is useless information at the call site anyways: For lazy, used-many times fv's we will never get any better result than that, no matter how good the actual demand on the function at the call site is (unless it is always absent, but then the whole binder is useless). Therefore we exclude lazy multiple-used fv's from the environment in the DmdType. But now the signature lies! (Missing variables are assumed to be absent.) To make up for this, the code that analyses the binding keeps the demand on those variable separate (usually called "lazy_fv") and adds it to the demand of the whole binding later. What if we decide _not_ to store a strictness signature for a binding at all, as we do when aborting a fixed-point iteration? The we risk losing the information that the strict variables are being used. In that case, we take all free variables mentioned in the (unsound) strictness signature, conservatively approximate the demand put on them (topDmd), and add that to the "lazy_fv" returned by "dmdFix". Note [Lambda-bound unfoldings] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We allow a lambda-bound variable to carry an unfolding, a facility that is used exclusively for join points; see Note [Case binders and join points]. If so, we must be careful to demand-analyse the RHS of the unfolding! Example \x. \y{=Just x}. Then if uses 'y', then transitively it uses 'x', and we must not forget that fact, otherwise we might make 'x' absent when it isn't. ************************************************************************ * * \subsection{Strictness signatures} * * ************************************************************************ -} type DFunFlag = Bool -- indicates if the lambda being considered is in the -- sequence of lambdas at the top of the RHS of a dfun notArgOfDfun :: DFunFlag notArgOfDfun = False data AnalEnv = AE { ae_strict_dicts :: !Bool -- ^ Enable strict dict , ae_sigs :: !SigEnv , ae_virgin :: !Bool -- ^ True on first iteration only -- See Note [Initialising strictness] , ae_fam_envs :: !FamInstEnvs } -- We use the se_env to tell us whether to -- record info about a variable in the DmdEnv -- We do so if it's a LocalId, but not top-level -- -- The DmdEnv gives the demand on the free vars of the function -- when it is given enough args to satisfy the strictness signature type SigEnv = VarEnv (StrictSig, TopLevelFlag) instance Outputable AnalEnv where ppr env = text "AE" <+> braces (vcat [ text "ae_virgin =" <+> ppr (ae_virgin env) , text "ae_strict_dicts =" <+> ppr (ae_strict_dicts env) , text "ae_sigs =" <+> ppr (ae_sigs env) ]) emptyAnalEnv :: DmdAnalOpts -> FamInstEnvs -> AnalEnv emptyAnalEnv opts fam_envs = AE { ae_strict_dicts = dmd_strict_dicts opts , ae_sigs = emptySigEnv , ae_virgin = True , ae_fam_envs = fam_envs } emptySigEnv :: SigEnv emptySigEnv = emptyVarEnv -- | Extend an environment with the strictness IDs attached to the id extendAnalEnvs :: TopLevelFlag -> AnalEnv -> [Id] -> AnalEnv extendAnalEnvs top_lvl env vars = env { ae_sigs = extendSigEnvs top_lvl (ae_sigs env) vars } extendSigEnvs :: TopLevelFlag -> SigEnv -> [Id] -> SigEnv extendSigEnvs top_lvl sigs vars = extendVarEnvList sigs [ (var, (idStrictness var, top_lvl)) | var <- vars] extendAnalEnv :: TopLevelFlag -> AnalEnv -> Id -> StrictSig -> AnalEnv extendAnalEnv top_lvl env var sig = env { ae_sigs = extendSigEnv top_lvl (ae_sigs env) var sig } extendSigEnv :: TopLevelFlag -> SigEnv -> Id -> StrictSig -> SigEnv extendSigEnv top_lvl sigs var sig = extendVarEnv sigs var (sig, top_lvl) lookupSigEnv :: AnalEnv -> Id -> Maybe (StrictSig, TopLevelFlag) lookupSigEnv env id = lookupVarEnv (ae_sigs env) id nonVirgin :: AnalEnv -> AnalEnv nonVirgin env = env { ae_virgin = False } findBndrsDmds :: AnalEnv -> DmdType -> [Var] -> (DmdType, [Demand]) -- Return the demands on the Ids in the [Var] findBndrsDmds env dmd_ty bndrs = go dmd_ty bndrs where go dmd_ty [] = (dmd_ty, []) go dmd_ty (b:bs) | isId b = let (dmd_ty1, dmds) = go dmd_ty bs (dmd_ty2, dmd) = findBndrDmd env False dmd_ty1 b in (dmd_ty2, dmd : dmds) | otherwise = go dmd_ty bs findBndrDmd :: AnalEnv -> Bool -> DmdType -> Id -> (DmdType, Demand) -- See Note [Trimming a demand to a type] findBndrDmd env arg_of_dfun dmd_ty id = -- pprTrace "findBndrDmd" (ppr id $$ ppr dmd_ty $$ ppr starting_dmd $$ ppr dmd') $ (dmd_ty', dmd') where dmd' = strictify $ trimToType starting_dmd (findTypeShape fam_envs id_ty) (dmd_ty', starting_dmd) = peelFV dmd_ty id id_ty = idType id strictify dmd | ae_strict_dicts env -- We never want to strictify a recursive let.

Our basic plan is to initialise the strictness of each Id in a recursive group to "bottom", and find a fixpoint from there. However, this group B might be inside an *enclosing* recursive group A, in which case we'll do the entire fixpoint shebang on for each iteration of A. This can be illustrated by the following example: Example: f [] = [] f (x:xs) = let g [] = f xs g (y:ys) = y+1 : g ys in g (h x) At each iteration of the fixpoint for f, the analyser has to find a fixpoint for the enclosed function g. In the meantime, the demand values for g at each iteration for f are *greater* than those we encountered in the previous iteration for f. Therefore, we can begin the fixpoint for g not with the bottom value but rather with the result of the previous analysis. I.e., when beginning the fixpoint process for g, we can start from the demand signature computed for g previously and attached to the binding occurrence of g. To speed things up, we initialise each iteration of A (the enclosing one) from the result of the last one, which is neatly recorded in each binder. That way we make use of earlier iterations of the fixpoint algorithm. (Cunning plan.) But on the *first* iteration we want to *ignore* the current strictness of the Id, and start from "bottom". Nowadays the Id can have a current strictness, because interface files record strictness for nested bindings. To know when we are in the first iteration, we look at the ae_virgin field of the AnalEnv. Note [Final Demand Analyser run] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Some of the information that the demand analyser determines is not always preserved by the simplifier. For example, the simplifier will happily rewrite \y [Demand=MU] let x = y in x + x to \y [Demand=MU] y + y which is quite a lie: Now y occurs more than just once. The once-used information is (currently) only used by the code generator, though. So: * We zap the used-once info in the worker-wrapper; see Note [Zapping Used Once info in WorkWrap] in GHC.Core.Opt.WorkWrap. If it's not reliable, it's better not to have it at all. * Just before TidyCore, we add a pass of the demand analyser, but WITHOUT subsequent worker/wrapper and simplifier, right before TidyCore. See SimplCore.getCoreToDo. This way, correct information finds its way into the module interface (strictness signatures!) and the code generator (single-entry thunks!) Note that, in contrast, the single-call information (CM(..)) /can/ be relied upon, as the simplifier tends to be very careful about not duplicating actual function calls. Also see #11731. -}
