But given this decision it's vital that we do *always* do it. Consider this unfolding \x -> letrec { f = ...g...; g* = f } in body where g* is (for some strange reason) the loop breaker. If we don't occ-anal it when reading it in, we won't mark g as a loop breaker, and we may inline g entirely in body, dropping its binding, and leaving the occurrence in f out of scope. This happened in #8892, where the unfolding in question was a DFun unfolding. But more generally, the simplifier is designed on the basis that it is looking at occurrence-analysed expressions, so better ensure that they actually are. Note [Calculate unfolding guidance on the non-occ-anal'd expression] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Notice that we give the non-occur-analysed expression to calcUnfoldingGuidance. In some ways it'd be better to occur-analyse first; for example, sometimes during simplification, there's a large let-bound thing which has been substituted, and so is now dead; so 'expr' contains two copies of the thing while the occurrence-analysed expression doesn't. Nevertheless, we *don't* and *must not* occ-analyse before computing the size because a) The size computation bales out after a while, whereas occurrence analysis does not. b) Residency increases sharply if you occ-anal first. I'm not 100% sure why, but it's a large effect. Compiling Cabal went from residency of 534M to over 800M with this one change. This can occasionally mean that the guidance is very pessimistic; it gets fixed up next round. And it should be rare, because large let-bound things that are dead are usually caught by preInlineUnconditionally ************************************************************************ * * \subsection{The UnfoldingGuidance type} * * ************************************************************************ -} inlineBoringOk :: CoreExpr -> Bool -- See Note [INLINE for small functions] -- True => the result of inlining the expression is -- no bigger than the expression itself -- eg (\x y -> f y x) -- This is a quick and dirty version.

Moreover, if we /don't/ inline it, we may be left with f (unsafeCoerce x) which will build a thunk -- bad, bad, bad. Conclusion: we really want inlineBoringOk to be True of the RHS of unsafeCoerce. This is (U4) in Note [Implementing unsafeCoerce]. Note [Computing the size of an expression] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The basic idea of sizeExpr is obvious enough: count nodes. But getting the heuristics right has taken a long time. Here's the basic strategy: * Variables, literals: 0 (Exception for string literals, see litSize.) * Function applications (f e1 .. en): 1 + #value args * Constructor applications: 1, regardless of #args * Let(rec): 1 + size of components * Note, cast: 0 Examples Size Term -------------- 0 42# 0 x 0 True 2 f x 1 Just x 4 f (g x) Notice that 'x' counts 0, while (f x) counts 2. That's deliberate: there's a function call to account for. Notice also that constructor applications are very cheap, because exposing them to a caller is so valuable. [25/5/11] All sizes are now multiplied by 10, except for primops (which have sizes like 1 or 4. This makes primops look fantastically cheap, and seems to be almost universally beneficial. Done partly as a result of #4978. Note [Do not inline top-level bottoming functions] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The FloatOut pass has gone to some trouble to float out calls to 'error' and similar friends. See Note [Bottoming floats] in GHC.Core.Opt.SetLevels. Do not re-inline them! But we *do* still inline if they are very small (the uncondInline stuff). Note [INLINE for small functions] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider {-# INLINE f #-} f x = Just x g y = f y Then f's RHS is no larger than its LHS, so we should inline it into even the most boring context. In general, f the function is sufficiently small that its body is as small as the call itself, the inline unconditionally, regardless of how boring the context is. Things to note: (1) We inline *unconditionally* if inlined thing is smaller (using sizeExpr) than the thing it's replacing. Notice that (f x) --> (g 3) -- YES, unconditionally (f x) --> x : [] -- YES, *even though* there are two -- arguments to the cons x --> g 3 -- NO x --> Just v -- NO It's very important not to unconditionally replace a variable by a non-atomic term. (2) We do this even if the thing isn't saturated, else we end up with the silly situation that f x y = x ...map (f 3)... doesn't inline. Even in a boring context, inlining without being saturated will give a lambda instead of a PAP, and will be more efficient at runtime. (3) However, when the function's arity > 0, we do insist that it has at least one value argument at the call site. (This check is made in the UnfWhen case of callSiteInline.) Otherwise we find this: f = /\a \x:a. x d = /\b. MkD (f b) If we inline f here we get d = /\b. MkD (\x:b. x) and then prepareRhs floats out the argument, abstracting the type variables, so we end up with the original again! (4) We must be much more cautious about arity-zero things. Consider let x = y +# z in ... In *size* terms primops look very small, because the generate a single instruction, but we do not want to unconditionally replace every occurrence of x with (y +# z). So we only do the unconditional-inline thing for *trivial* expressions. NB: you might think that PostInlineUnconditionally would do this but it doesn't fire for top-level things; see GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Utils Note [Top level and postInlineUnconditionally] Note [Count coercion arguments in boring contexts] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In inlineBoringOK, we ignore type arguments when deciding whether an expression is okay to inline into boring contexts. This is good, since if we have a definition like let y = x @Int in f y y there’s no reason not to inline y at both use sites — no work is actually duplicated. It may seem like the same reasoning applies to coercion arguments, and indeed, in #17182 we changed inlineBoringOK to treat coercions the same way. However, this isn’t a good idea: unlike type arguments, which have no runtime representation, coercion arguments *do* have a runtime representation (albeit the zero-width VoidRep, see Note [Coercion tokens] in "GHC.CoreToStg"). This caused trouble in #17787 for DataCon wrappers for nullary GADT constructors: the wrappers would be inlined and each use of the constructor would lead to a separate allocation instead of just sharing the wrapper closure. The solution: don’t ignore coercion arguments after all. -} uncondInline :: CoreExpr -> Arity -> Int -> Bool -- Inline unconditionally if there no size increase -- Size of call is arity (+1 for the function) -- See Note [INLINE for small functions] uncondInline rhs arity size | arity > 0 = size <= 10 * (arity + 1) -- See Note [INLINE for small functions] (1) | otherwise = exprIsTrivial rhs -- See Note [INLINE for small functions] (4) sizeExpr :: UnfoldingOpts -> Int -- Bomb out if it gets bigger than this -> [Id] -- Arguments; we're interested in which of these -- get case'd -> CoreExpr -> ExprSize -- Note [Computing the size of an expression] -- Forcing bOMB_OUT_SIZE early prevents repeated -- unboxing of the Int argument. sizeExpr opts !bOMB_OUT_SIZE top_args expr = size_up expr where size_up (Cast e _) = size_up e size_up (Tick _ e) = size_up e size_up (Type _) = sizeZero -- Types cost nothing size_up (Coercion _) = sizeZero size_up (Lit lit) = sizeN (litSize lit) size_up (Var f) | isRealWorldId f = sizeZero -- Make sure we get constructor discounts even -- on nullary constructors | otherwise = size_up_call f [] 0 size_up (App fun arg) | isTyCoArg arg = size_up fun | otherwise = size_up arg `addSizeNSD` size_up_app fun [arg] (if isRealWorldExpr arg then 1 else 0) size_up (Lam b e) | isId b && not (isRealWorldId b) = lamScrutDiscount opts (size_up e `addSizeN` 10) | otherwise = size_up e size_up (Let (NonRec binder rhs) body) = size_up_rhs (binder, rhs) `addSizeNSD` size_up body `addSizeN` size_up_alloc binder size_up (Let (Rec pairs) body) = foldr (addSizeNSD . size_up_rhs) (size_up body `addSizeN` sum (map (size_up_alloc . fst) pairs)) pairs size_up (Case e _ _ alts) | null alts = size_up e -- case e of {} never returns, so take size of scrutinee size_up (Case e _ _ alts) -- Now alts is non-empty | Just v <- is_top_arg e -- We are scrutinising an argument variable = let alt_sizes = map size_up_alt alts -- alts_size tries to compute a good discount for -- the case when we are scrutinising an argument variable alts_size (SizeIs tot tot_disc tot_scrut) -- Size of all alternatives (SizeIs max _ _) -- Size of biggest alternative = SizeIs tot (unitBag (v, 20 + tot - max) `unionBags` tot_disc) tot_scrut -- If the variable is known, we produce a -- discount that will take us back to 'max', -- the size of the largest alternative The -- 1+ is a little discount for reduced -- allocation in the caller -- -- Notice though, that we return tot_disc, -- the total discount from all branches.

We can't treat them as size zero, else we find that (Just x) has size 0, which is the same as a lone variable; and hence 'v' will always be replaced by (Just x), where v is bound to Just x. The "result discount" is applied if the result of the call is scrutinised (say by a case). For a constructor application that will mean the constructor application will disappear, so we don't need to charge it to the function. So the discount should at least match the cost of the constructor application, namely 10. Historical note 1: Until Jun 2020 we gave it a "bit of extra incentive" via a discount of 10*(1 + n_val_args), but that was FAR too much (#18282). In particular, consider a huge case tree like let r = case y1 of Nothing -> B1 a b c Just v1 -> case y2 of Nothing -> B1 c b a Just v2 -> ... If conSize gives a cost of 10 (regardless of n_val_args) and a discount of 10, that'll make each alternative RHS cost zero. We charge 10 for each case alternative (see size_up_alt). If we give a bigger discount (say 20) in conSize, we'll make the case expression cost *nothing*, and that can make a huge case tree cost nothing. This leads to massive, sometimes exponenial inlinings (#18282). In short, don't give a discount that give a negative size to a sub-expression! Historical note 2: Much longer ago, Simon M tried a MUCH bigger discount: (10 * (10 + n_val_args)), and said it was an "unambiguous win", but its terribly dangerous because a function with many many case branches, each finishing with a constructor, can have an arbitrarily large discount. This led to terrible code bloat: see #6099. Note [Unboxed tuple size and result discount] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ However, unboxed tuples count as size zero. I found occasions where we had f x y z = case op# x y z of { s -> (# s, () #) } and f wasn't getting inlined. I tried giving unboxed tuples a *result discount* of zero (see the commented-out line). Why? When returned as a result they do not allocate, so maybe we don't want to charge so much for them. If you have a non-zero discount here, we find that workers often get inlined back into wrappers, because it look like f x = case $wf x of (# a,b #) -> (a,b) and we are keener because of the case. However while this change shrank binary sizes by 0.5% it also made spectral/boyer allocate 5% more. All other changes were very small. So it's not a big deal but I didn't adopt the idea. When fixing #18282 (see Note [Constructor size and result discount]) I changed the result discount to be just 10, not 10*(1+n_val_args). Note [Function and non-function discounts] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We want a discount if the function is applied. A good example is monadic combinators with continuation arguments, where inlining is quite important. But we don't want a big discount when a function is called many times (see the detailed comments with #6048) because if the function is big it won't be inlined at its many call sites and no benefit results. Indeed, we can get exponentially big inlinings this way; that is what #6048 is about. On the other hand, for data-valued arguments, if there are lots of case expressions in the body, each one will get smaller if we apply the function to a constructor application, so we *want* a big discount if the argument is scrutinised by many case expressions. Conclusion: - For functions, take the max of the discounts - For data values, take the sum of the discounts Note [Literal integer size] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Literal integers *can* be big (mkInteger [...coefficients...]), but need not be (IS n). We just use an arbitrary big-ish constant here so that, in particular, we don't inline top-level defns like n = IS 5 There's no point in doing so -- any optimisations will see the IS through n's unfolding. Nor will a big size inhibit unfoldings functions that mention a literal Integer, because the float-out pass will float all those constants to top level. -} primOpSize :: PrimOp -> Int -> ExprSize primOpSize op n_val_args = if primOpOutOfLine op then sizeN (op_size + n_val_args) else sizeN op_size where op_size = primOpCodeSize op buildSize :: ExprSize buildSize = SizeIs 0 emptyBag 40 -- We really want to inline applications of build -- build t (\cn -> e) should cost only the cost of e (because build will be inlined later) -- Indeed, we should add a result_discount because build is -- very like a constructor.

For a multi-branch case, this gives a discount for each branch that returns a constructor, making us keener to inline. I did try using 'max' instead, but it makes nofib 'rewrite' and 'puzzle' allocate significantly more, and didn't make binary sizes shrink significantly either. Note [Discounts and thresholds] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Constants for discounts and thresholds are defined in 'UnfoldingOpts'. They are: unfoldingCreationThreshold At a definition site, if the unfolding is bigger than this, we may discard it altogether unfoldingUseThreshold At a call site, if the unfolding, less discounts, is smaller than this, then it's small enough inline unfoldingDictDiscount The discount for each occurrence of a dictionary argument as an argument of a class method. Should be pretty small else big functions may get inlined unfoldingFunAppDiscount Discount for a function argument that is applied. Quite large, because if we inline we avoid the higher-order call. unfoldingVeryAggressive If True, the compiler ignores all the thresholds and inlines very aggressively. It still adheres to arity, simplifier phase control and loop breakers. Historical Note: Before April 2020 we had another factor, ufKeenessFactor, which would scale the discounts before they were subtracted from the size. This was justified with the following comment: -- We multiply the raw discounts (args_discount and result_discount) -- ty opt_UnfoldingKeenessFactor because the former have to do with -- *size* whereas the discounts imply that there's some extra -- *efficiency* to be gained (e.g. beta reductions, case reductions) -- by inlining. However, this is highly suspect since it means that we subtract a *scaled* size from an absolute size, resulting in crazy (e.g. negative) scores in some cases (#15304). We consequently killed off ufKeenessFactor and bumped up the ufUseThreshold to compensate.

Even if the work duplication is not great (eg is_cheap holds), it can make a big difference in an inner loop In #5623 we found that the WorkWrap phase thought that y = case x of F# v -> F# (v +# v) was certainlyWillInline, so the addition got duplicated. Note that we check arityInfo instead of the arity of the unfolding to detect this case. This is so that we don't accidentally fail to inline small partial applications, like `f = g 42` (where `g` recurses into `f`) where g has arity 2 (say). Here there is no risk of work duplication, and the RHS is tiny, so certainlyWillInline should return True. But `unf_arity` is zero! However f's arity, gotten from `arityInfo fn_info`, is 1. Failing to say that `f` will inline forces W/W to generate a potentially huge worker for f that will immediately cancel with `g`'s wrapper anyway, causing unnecessary churn in the Simplifier while arriving at the same result. Note [certainlyWillInline: INLINABLE] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ certainlyWillInline /must/ return Nothing for a large INLINABLE thing, even though we have a stable inlining, so that strictness w/w takes place.

So should be safe to inline. However sometimes this doesn't quite work out like that. Consider this code: f1 arg1 arg2 ... = ... case _foo of alt1 -> ... f2 arg1 ... alt2 -> ... f2 arg2 ... f2 arg1 arg2 ... = ... case _foo of alt1 -> ... f3 arg1 ... alt2 -> ... f3 arg2 ... f3 arg1 arg2 ... = ... ... repeats up to n times. And then f1 is applied to some arguments: foo = ... f1 ... Initially f2..fn are not interesting to inline so we don't. However we see that f1 is applied to interesting args. So it's an obvious choice to inline those: foo = ... case _foo of alt1 -> ... f2 ... alt2 -> ... f2 ... As a result we go and inline f2 both mentions of f2 in turn are now applied to interesting arguments and f2 is small: foo = ... case _foo of alt1 -> ... case _foo of alt1 -> ... f3 ... alt2 -> ... f3 ... alt2 -> ... case _foo of alt1 -> ... f3 ... alt2 -> ... f3 ... The same thing happens for each binding up to f_n, duplicating the amount of inlining done in each step. Until at some point we are either done or run out of simplifier ticks/RAM. This pattern happened #18730. To combat this we introduce one more heuristic when weighing inlining decision. We keep track of a "case-depth". Which increases each time we look inside a case expression with more than one alternative. We then apply a penalty to inlinings based on the case-depth at which they would be inlined. Bounding the number of inlinings in such a scenario. The heuristic can be tuned in two ways: * We can ignore the first n levels of case nestings for inlining decisions using -funfolding-case-threshold. * The penalty grows linear with the depth. It's computed as size*(depth-threshold)/scaling. Scaling can be set with -funfolding-case-scaling. Some guidance on setting these defaults: * A low treshold (<= 2) is needed to prevent exponential cases from spiraling out of control. We picked 2 for no particular reason. * Scaling the penalty by any more than 30 means the reproducer from T18730 won't compile even with reasonably small values of n. Instead it will run out of runs/ticks. This means to positively affect the reproducer a scaling <= 30 is required. * A scaling of >= 15 still causes a few very large regressions on some nofib benchmarks. (+80% for gc/fulsom, +90% for real/ben-raytrace, +20% for spectral/fibheaps) * A scaling of >= 25 showed no regressions on nofib. However it showed a number of (small) regression for compiler perf benchmarks. The end result is that we are settling for a scaling of 30, with a threshold of 2. This gives us minimal compiler perf regressions. No nofib runtime regressions and will still avoid this pattern sometimes. This is a "safe" default, where we err on the side of compiler blowup instead of risking runtime regressions. For cases where the default falls short the flag can be changed to allow more/less inlining as needed on a per-module basis. -} tryUnfolding :: Logger -> DynFlags -> Int -> Id -> Bool -> [ArgSummary] -> CallCtxt -> CoreExpr -> Bool -> Bool -> UnfoldingGuidance -> Maybe CoreExpr tryUnfolding logger dflags !case_depth id lone_variable arg_infos cont_info unf_template is_wf is_exp guidance = case guidance of UnfNever -> traceInline logger dflags id str (text "UnfNever") Nothing UnfWhen { ug_arity = uf_arity, ug_unsat_ok = unsat_ok, ug_boring_ok = boring_ok } | enough_args && (boring_ok || some_benefit || unfoldingVeryAggressive uf_opts) -- See Note [INLINE for small functions (3)] -> traceInline logger dflags id str (mk_doc some_benefit empty True) (Just unf_template) | otherwise -> traceInline logger dflags id str (mk_doc some_benefit empty False) Nothing where some_benefit = calc_some_benefit uf_arity enough_args = (n_val_args >= uf_arity) || (unsat_ok && n_val_args > 0) UnfIfGoodArgs { ug_args = arg_discounts, ug_res = res_discount, ug_size = size } | unfoldingVeryAggressive uf_opts -> traceInline logger dflags id str (mk_doc some_benefit extra_doc True) (Just unf_template) | is_wf && some_benefit && small_enough -> traceInline logger dflags id str (mk_doc some_benefit extra_doc True) (Just unf_template) | otherwise -> traceInline logger dflags id str (mk_doc some_benefit extra_doc False) Nothing where some_benefit = calc_some_benefit (length arg_discounts) extra_doc = vcat [ text "case depth =" <+> int case_depth , text "depth based penalty =" <+> int depth_penalty , text "discounted size =" <+> int adjusted_size ] -- See Note [Avoid inlining into deeply nested cases] depth_treshold = unfoldingCaseThreshold uf_opts depth_scaling = unfoldingCaseScaling uf_opts depth_penalty | case_depth <= depth_treshold = 0 | otherwise = (size * (case_depth - depth_treshold)) `div` depth_scaling adjusted_size = size + depth_penalty - discount small_enough = adjusted_size <= unfoldingUseThreshold uf_opts discount = computeDiscount arg_discounts res_discount arg_infos cont_info where uf_opts = unfoldingOpts dflags mk_doc some_benefit extra_doc yes_or_no = vcat [ text "arg infos" <+> ppr arg_infos , text "interesting continuation" <+> ppr cont_info , text "some_benefit" <+> ppr some_benefit , text "is exp:" <+> ppr is_exp , text "is work-free:" <+> ppr is_wf , text "guidance" <+> ppr guidance , extra_doc , text "ANSWER =" <+> if yes_or_no then text "YES" else text "NO"] ctx = initSDocContext dflags defaultDumpStyle str = "Considering inlining: " ++ showSDocDump ctx (ppr id) n_val_args = length arg_infos -- some_benefit is used when the RHS is small enough -- and the call has enough (or too many) value -- arguments (ie n_val_args >= arity).

For example f y = (y,y,y) g y = let x = f y in ...(case x of (a,b,c) -> ...) ... We'd inline 'f' if the call was in a case context, and it kind-of-is, only we can't see it. Also x = f v could be expensive whereas x = case v of (a,b) -> a is patently cheap and may allow more eta expansion. So we treat the RHS of a let as not-totally-boring. Note [Unsaturated applications] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When a call is not saturated, we *still* inline if one of the arguments has interesting structure. That's sometimes very important. A good example is the Ord instance for Bool in Base: Rec { $fOrdBool =GHC.Classes.D:Ord @ Bool ... $cmin_ajX $cmin_ajX [Occ=LoopBreaker] :: Bool -> Bool -> Bool $cmin_ajX = GHC.Classes.$dmmin @ Bool $fOrdBool } But the defn of GHC.Classes.$dmmin is: $dmmin :: forall a. GHC.Classes.Ord a => a -> a -> a {- Arity: 3, HasNoCafRefs, Strictness: SLL, Unfolding: (\ @ a $dOrd :: GHC.Classes.Ord a x :: a y :: a -> case @ a GHC.Classes.<= @ a $dOrd x y of wild { GHC.Types.False -> y GHC.Types.True -> x }) -} We *really* want to inline $dmmin, even though it has arity 3, in order to unravel the recursion. Note [Things to watch] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * { y = I# 3; x = y `cast` co; ...case (x `cast` co) of ... } Assume x is exported, so not inlined unconditionally. Then we want x to inline unconditionally; no reason for it not to, and doing so avoids an indirection. * { x = I# 3; ....f x.... } Make sure that x does not inline unconditionally! Lest we get extra allocation. Note [Inlining an InlineRule] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ An InlineRules is used for (a) programmer INLINE pragmas (b) inlinings from worker/wrapper For (a) the RHS may be large, and our contract is that we *only* inline when the function is applied to all the arguments on the LHS of the source-code defn. (The uf_arity in the rule.) However for worker/wrapper it may be worth inlining even if the arity is not satisfied (as we do in the CoreUnfolding case) so we don't require saturation. Note [Nested functions] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ At one time we treated a call of a non-top-level function as "interesting" (regardless of how boring the context) in the hope that inlining it would eliminate the binding, and its allocation. Specifically, in the default case of interesting_call we had _other -> not is_top && uf_arity > 0 But actually postInlineUnconditionally does some of this and overall it makes virtually no difference to nofib. So I simplified away this special case Note [Cast then apply] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider myIndex = __inline_me ( (/\a. ) |> co ) co :: (forall a. a -> a) ~ (forall a. T a) ... /\a.\x. case ((myIndex a) |> sym co) x of { ... } ... We need to inline myIndex to unravel this; but the actual call (myIndex a) has no value arguments. The ValAppCtxt gives it enough incentive to inline. Note [Inlining in ArgCtxt] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The condition (arity > 0) here is very important, because otherwise we end up inlining top-level stuff into useless places; eg x = I# 3# f = \y. g x This can make a very big difference: it adds 16% to nofib 'integer' allocs, and 20% to 'power'. At one stage I replaced this condition by 'True' (leading to the above slow-down). The motivation was test eyeball/inline1.hs; but that seems to work ok now. NOTE: arguably, we should inline in ArgCtxt only if the result of the call is at least CONLIKE. At least for the cases where we use ArgCtxt for the RHS of a 'let', we only profit from the inlining if we get a CONLIKE thing (modulo lets). Note [Lone variables] See also Note [Interaction of exprIsWorkFree and lone variables] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ which appears below The "lone-variable" case is important. I spent ages messing about with unsatisfactory variants, but this is nice. The idea is that if a variable appears all alone as an arg of lazy fn, or rhs BoringCtxt as scrutinee of a case CaseCtxt as arg of a fn ArgCtxt AND it is bound to a cheap expression then we should not inline it (unless there is some other reason, e.g. it is the sole occurrence). That is what is happening at the use of 'lone_variable' in 'interesting_call'. Why? At least in the case-scrutinee situation, turning let x = (a,b) in case x of y -> ... into let x = (a,b) in case (a,b) of y -> ... and thence to let x = (a,b) in let y = (a,b) in ... is bad if the binding for x will remain. Another example: I discovered that strings were getting inlined straight back into applications of 'error' because the latter is strict. s = "foo" f = \x -> ...(error s)... Fundamentally such contexts should not encourage inlining because, provided the RHS is "expandable" (see Note [exprIsExpandable] in GHC.Core.Utils) the context can ``see'' the unfolding of the variable (e.g. case or a RULE) so there's no gain. However, watch out: * Consider this: foo = _inline_ (\n. [n]) bar = _inline_ (foo 20) baz = \n. case bar of { (m:_) -> m + n } Here we really want to inline 'bar' so that we can inline 'foo' and the whole thing unravels as it should obviously do. This is important: in the NDP project, 'bar' generates a closure data structure rather than a list. So the non-inlining of lone_variables should only apply if the unfolding is regarded as cheap; because that is when exprIsConApp_maybe looks through the unfolding. Hence the "&& is_wf" in the InlineRule branch. * Even a type application or coercion isn't a lone variable. Consider case $fMonadST @ RealWorld of { :DMonad a b c -> c } We had better inline that sucker! The case won't see through it. For now, I'm treating treating a variable applied to types in a *lazy* context "lone". The motivating example was f = /\a. \x. BIG g = /\a. \y. h (f a) There's no advantage in inlining f here, and perhaps a significant disadvantage. Hence some_val_args in the Stop case Note [Interaction of exprIsWorkFree and lone variables] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The lone-variable test says "don't inline if a case expression scrutinises a lone variable whose unfolding is cheap". It's very important that, under these circumstances, exprIsConApp_maybe can spot a constructor application. So, for example, we don't consider let x = e in (x,x) to be cheap, and that's good because exprIsConApp_maybe doesn't think that expression is a constructor application. In the 'not (lone_variable && is_wf)' test, I used to test is_value rather than is_wf, which was utterly wrong, because the above expression responds True to exprIsHNF, which is what sets is_value. This kind of thing can occur if you have {-# INLINE foo #-} foo = let x = e in (x,x) which Roman did. -} computeDiscount :: [Int] -> Int -> [ArgSummary] -> CallCtxt -> Int computeDiscount arg_discounts res_discount arg_infos cont_info = 10 -- Discount of 10 because the result replaces the call -- so we count 10 for the function itself + 10 * length actual_arg_discounts -- Discount of 10 for each arg supplied, -- because the result replaces the call + total_arg_discount + res_discount' where actual_arg_discounts = zipWith mk_arg_discount arg_discounts arg_infos total_arg_discount = sum actual_arg_discounts mk_arg_discount _ TrivArg = 0 mk_arg_discount _ NonTrivArg = 10 mk_arg_discount discount ValueArg = discount res_discount' | LT <- arg_discounts `compareLength` arg_infos = res_discount -- Over-saturated | otherwise = case cont_info of BoringCtxt -> 0 CaseCtxt -> res_discount -- Presumably a constructor ValAppCtxt -> res_discount -- Presumably a function _ -> 40 `min` res_discount -- ToDo: this 40 `min` res_discount doesn't seem right -- for DiscArgCtxt it shouldn't matter because the function will -- get the arg discount for any non-triv arg -- for RuleArgCtxt we do want to be keener to inline; but not only -- constructor results -- for RhsCtxt I suppose that exposing a data con is good in general -- And 40 seems very arbitrary -- -- res_discount can be very large when a function returns -- constructors; but we only want to invoke that large discount -- when there's a case continuation. -- Otherwise we, rather arbitrarily, threshold it.
