\end{code} The guts of the simplifier is in this module, but the driver loop for the simplifier is in SimplCore.lhs. ----------------------------------------- *** IMPORTANT NOTE *** ----------------------------------------- The simplifier used to guarantee that the output had no shadowing, but it does not do so any more. (Actually, it never did!) The reason is documented with simplifyArgs. ----------------------------------------- *** IMPORTANT NOTE *** ----------------------------------------- Many parts of the simplifier return a bunch of "floats" as well as an expression. This is wrapped as a datatype SimplUtils.FloatsWith. All "floats" are let-binds, not case-binds, but some non-rec lets may be unlifted (with RHS ok-for-speculation). ----------------------------------------- ORGANISATION OF FUNCTIONS ----------------------------------------- simplTopBinds - simplify all top-level binders - for NonRec, call simplRecOrTopPair - for Rec, call simplRecBind ------------------------------ simplExpr (applied lambda) ==> simplNonRecBind simplExpr (Let (NonRec ...) ..) ==> simplNonRecBind simplExpr (Let (Rec ...) ..) ==> simplify binders; simplRecBind ------------------------------ simplRecBind [binders already simplfied] - use simplRecOrTopPair on each pair in turn simplRecOrTopPair [binder already simplified] Used for: recursive bindings (top level and nested) top-level non-recursive bindings Returns: - check for PreInlineUnconditionally - simplLazyBind simplNonRecBind Used for: non-top-level non-recursive bindings beta reductions (which amount to the same thing) Because it can deal with strict arts, it takes a "thing-inside" and returns an expression - check for PreInlineUnconditionally - simplify binder, including its IdInfo - if strict binding simplStrictArg mkAtomicArgs completeNonRecX else simplLazyBind addFloats simplNonRecX: [given a *simplified* RHS, but an *unsimplified* binder] Used for: binding case-binder and constr args in a known-constructor case - check for PreInLineUnconditionally - simplify binder - completeNonRecX ------------------------------ simplLazyBind: [binder already simplified, RHS not] Used for: recursive bindings (top level and nested) top-level non-recursive bindings non-top-level, but *lazy* non-recursive bindings [must not be strict or unboxed] Returns floats + an augmented environment, not an expression - substituteIdInfo and add result to in-scope [so that rules are available in rec rhs] - simplify rhs - mkAtomicArgs - float if exposes constructor or PAP - completeBind completeNonRecX: [binder and rhs both simplified] - if the the thing needs case binding (unlifted and not ok-for-spec) build a Case else completeBind addFloats completeBind: [given a simplified RHS] [used for both rec and non-rec bindings, top level and not] - try PostInlineUnconditionally - add unfolding [this is the only place we add an unfolding] - add arity Right hand sides and arguments ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In many ways we want to treat (a) the right hand side of a let(rec), and (b) a function argument in the same way. But not always! In particular, we would like to leave these arguments exactly as they are, so they will match a RULE more easily. f (g x, h x) g (+ x) It's harder to make the rule match if we ANF-ise the constructor, or eta-expand the PAP: f (let { a = g x; b = h x } in (a,b)) g (\y. + x y) On the other hand if we see the let-defns p = (g x, h x) q = + x then we *do* want to ANF-ise and eta-expand, so that p and q can be safely inlined. Even floating lets out is a bit dubious. For let RHS's we float lets out if that exposes a value, so that the value can be inlined more vigorously. For example r = let x = e in (x,x) Here, if we float the let out we'll expose a nice constructor. We did experiments that showed this to be a generally good thing. But it was a bad thing to float lets out unconditionally, because that meant they got allocated more often. For function arguments, there's less reason to expose a constructor (it won't get inlined). Just possibly it might make a rule match, but I'm pretty skeptical. So for the moment we don't float lets out of function arguments either. Eta expansion ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For eta expansion, we want to catch things like case e of (a,b) -> \x -> case a of (p,q) -> \y -> r If the \x was on the RHS of a let, we'd eta expand to bring the two lambdas together. And in general that's a good thing to do. Perhaps we should eta expand wherever we find a (value) lambda? Then the eta expansion at a let RHS can concentrate solely on the PAP case. %************************************************************************ %* * \subsection{Bindings} %* * %************************************************************************ \begin{code}

Do not try preInlineUnconditionally in completeNonRecX Doing so risks exponential behaviour, because new_rhs has been simplified once already In the cases described by the folowing commment, postInlineUnconditionally will catch many of the relevant cases. -- This happens; for example, the case_bndr during case of -- known constructor: case (a,b) of x { (p,q) -> ... } -- Here x isn't mentioned in the RHS, so we don't want to -- create the (dead) let-binding let x = (a,b) in ... -- -- Similarly, single occurrences can be inlined vigourously -- e.g. case (f x, g y) of (a,b) -> .... -- If a,b occur once we can avoid constructing the let binding for them. Furthermore in the case-binding case preInlineUnconditionally risks extra thunks -- Consider case I# (quotInt# x y) of -- I# v -> let w = J# v in ... -- If we gaily inline (quotInt# x y) for v, we end up building an -- extra thunk: -- let w = J# (quotInt# x y) in ... -- because quotInt# can fail. | preInlineUnconditionally env NotTopLevel bndr new_rhs = thing_inside (extendIdSubst env bndr (DoneEx new_rhs)) -} ---------------------------------- prepareRhs takes a putative RHS, checks whether it's a PAP or constructor application and, if so, converts it to ANF, so that the resulting thing can be inlined more easily. Thus x = (f a, g b) becomes t1 = f a t2 = g b x = (t1,t2) We also want to deal well cases like this v = (f e1 `cast` co) e2 Here we want to make e1,e2 trivial and get x1 = e1; x2 = e2; v = (f x1 `cast` co) v2 That's what the 'go' loop in prepareRhs does \begin{code}

Example: data family T a :: * data instance T Int = T Int foo :: Int -> Int -> Int foo m n = ... where x = T m go 0 = 0 go n = case x of { T m -> go (n-m) } -- This case should optimise Note [Preserve strictness when floating coercions] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the Note [Float coercions] transformation, keep the strictness info. Eg f = e `cast` co -- f has strictness SSL When we transform to f' = e -- f' also has strictness SSL f = f' `cast` co -- f still has strictness SSL Its not wrong to drop it on the floor, but better to keep it. Note [Float coercions (unlifted)] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BUT don't do [Float coercions] if 'e' has an unlifted type. This *can* happen: foo :: Int = (error (# Int,Int #) "urk") `cast` CoUnsafe (# Int,Int #) Int If do the makeTrivial thing to the error call, we'll get foo = case error (# Int,Int #) "urk" of v -> v `cast` ...

And if so we don't want to turn it into foo = let x = f 3 in Bar x because we'll just end up inlining x back, and that makes the simplifier loop. Better not to ANF-ise it at all. A case in point is literal strings (a MachStr is not regarded as trivial): foo = Ptr "blob"# We don't want to ANF-ise this. %************************************************************************ %* * \subsection{Completing a lazy binding} %* * %************************************************************************ completeBind * deals only with Ids, not TyVars * takes an already-simplified binder and RHS * is used for both recursive and non-recursive bindings * is used for both top-level and non-top-level bindings It does the following: - tries discarding a dead binding - tries PostInlineUnconditionally - add unfolding [this is the only place we add an unfolding] - add arity It does *not* attempt to do let-to-case.

          --             we don't.)  The simple thing is always to have one.
\end{code} Note [Force bottoming field] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We need to force bottoming, or the new unfolding holds on to the old unfolding (which is part of the id). Note [Arity decrease] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Generally speaking the arity of a binding should not decrease. But it *can* legitimately happen because of RULES. Eg f = g Int where g has arity 2, will have arity 2. But if there's a rewrite rule g Int --> h where h has arity 1, then f's arity will decrease. Here's a real-life example, which is in the output of Specialise: Rec { $dm {Arity 2} = \d.\x. op d {-# RULES forall d. $dm Int d = $s$dm #-} dInt = MkD .... opInt ... opInt {Arity 1} = $dm dInt $s$dm {Arity 0} = \x. op dInt } Here opInt has arity 1; but when we apply the rule its arity drops to 0. That's why Specialise goes to a little trouble to pin the right arity on specialised functions too. Note [Setting the new unfolding] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * If there's an INLINE pragma, we simplify the RHS gently. Maybe we should do nothing at all, but simplifying gently might get rid of more crap. * If not, we make an unfolding from the new RHS. But *only* for non-loop-breakers. Making loop breakers not have an unfolding at all means that we can avoid tests in exprIsConApp, for example. This is important: if exprIsConApp says 'yes' for a recursive thing, then we can get into an infinite loop If there's an InlineRule on a loop breaker, we hang on to the inlining. It's pretty dodgy, but the user did say 'INLINE'. May need to revisit this choice. Note [Setting the demand info] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If the unfolding is a value, the demand info may go pear-shaped, so we nuke it. Example: let x = (a,b) in case x of (p,q) -> h p q x Here x is certainly demanded. But after we've nuked the case, we'll get just let x = (a,b) in h a b x and now x is not demanded (I'm assuming h is lazy) This really happens. Similarly let f = \x -> e in ...f..f... After inlining f at some of its call sites the original binding may (for example) be no longer strictly demanded. The solution here is a bit ad hoc... %************************************************************************ %* * \subsection[Simplify-simplExpr]{The main function: simplExpr} %* * %************************************************************************ The reason for this OutExprStuff stuff is that we want to float *after* simplifying a RHS, not before. If we do so naively we get quadratic behaviour as things float out. To see why it's important to do it after, consider this (real) example: let t = f x in fst t ==> let t = let a = e1 b = e2 in (a,b) in fst t ==> let a = e1 b = e2 t = (a,b) in a -- Can't inline a this round, cos it appears twice ==> e1 Each of the ==> steps is a round of simplification. We'd save a whole round if we float first. This can cascade. Consider let f = g d in \x -> ...f... ==> let f = let d1 = ..d.. in \y -> e in \x -> ...f... ==> let d1 = ..d.. in \x -> ...(\y ->e)... Only in this second round can the \y be applied, and it might do the same again. \begin{code}

-- Note [case-of-scc-of-case]
-- It's pretty important to be able to transform case-of-case when
-- there's an SCC in the way.  For example, the following comes up
-- in nofib/real/compress/Encode.hs:
--
--        case scctick<code_string.r1>
--             case $wcode_string_r13s wild_XC w1_s137 w2_s138 l_aje
--             of _ { (# ww1_s13f, ww2_s13g, ww3_s13h #) ->
--             (ww1_s13f, ww2_s13g, ww3_s13h)
--             }
--        of _ { (ww_s12Y, ww1_s12Z, ww2_s130) ->
--        tick<code_string.f1>
--        (ww_s12Y,
--         ww1_s12Z,
--         PTTrees.PT
--           @ GHC.Types.Char @ GHC.Types.Int wild2_Xj ww2_s130 r_ajf)
--        }
--
-- We really want this case-of-case to fire, because then the 3-tuple
-- will go away (indeed, the CPR optimisation is relying on this
-- happening).  But the scctick is in the way - we need to push it
-- inside to expose the case-of-case.  So we perform this
-- transformation on the inner case:
--
--   scctick c (case e of { p1 -> e1; ...; pn -> en })
--    ==>
--   case (scctick c e) of { p1 -> scc c e1; ...; pn -> scc c en }
--
-- So we've moved a constant amount of work out of the scc to expose
-- the case.  We only do this when the continuation is interesting: in
-- for now, it has to be another Case (maybe generalise this later).

\end{code} Note [RULES apply to simplified arguments] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It's very desirable to try RULES once the arguments have been simplified, because doing so ensures that rule cascades work in one pass. Consider {-# RULES g (h x) = k x f (k x) = x #-} ...f (g (h x))... Then we want to rewrite (g (h x)) to (k x) and only then try f's rules. If we match f's rules against the un-simplified RHS, it won't match. This makes a particularly big difference when superclass selectors are involved: op ($p1 ($p2 (df d))) We want all this to unravel in one sweeep. Note [Avoid redundant simplification] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Because RULES apply to simplified arguments, there's a danger of repeatedly simplifying already-simplified arguments. An important example is that of (>>=) d e1 e2 Here e1, e2 are simplified before the rule is applied, but don't really participate in the rule firing. So we mark them as Simplified to avoid re-simplifying them. Note [Shadowing] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This part of the simplifier may break the no-shadowing invariant Consider f (...(\a -> e)...) (case y of (a,b) -> e') where f is strict in its second arg If we simplify the innermost one first we get (...(\a -> e)...) Simplifying the second arg makes us float the case out, so we end up with case y of (a,b) -> f (...(\a -> e)...) e' So the output does not have the no-shadowing invariant. However, there is no danger of getting name-capture, because when the first arg was simplified we used an in-scope set that at least mentioned all the variables free in its static environment, and that is enough. We can't just do innermost first, or we'd end up with a dual problem: case x of (a,b) -> f e (...(\a -> e')...) I spent hours trying to recover the no-shadowing invariant, but I just could not think of an elegant way to do it. The simplifier is already knee-deep in continuations. We have to keep the right in-scope set around; AND we have to get the effect that finding (error "foo") in a strict arg position will discard the entire application and replace it with (error "foo"). Getting all this at once is TOO HARD! %************************************************************************ %* * Rewrite rules %* * %************************************************************************ \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Optimising tagToEnum#] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If we have an enumeration data type: data Foo = A | B | C Then we want to transform case tagToEnum# x of ==> case x of A -> e1 DEFAULT -> e1 B -> e2 1# -> e2 C -> e3 2# -> e3 thereby getting rid of the tagToEnum# altogether. If there was a DEFAULT alternative we retain it (remember it comes first). If not the case must be exhaustive, and we reflect that in the transformed version by adding a DEFAULT. Otherwise Lint complains that the new case is not exhaustive. See #8317. Note [Rules for recursive functions] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You might think that we shouldn't apply rules for a loop breaker: doing so might give rise to an infinite loop, because a RULE is rather like an extra equation for the function: RULE: f (g x) y = x+y Eqn: f a y = a-y But it's too drastic to disable rules for loop breakers. Even the foldr/build rule would be disabled, because foldr is recursive, and hence a loop breaker: foldr k z (build g) = g k z So it's up to the programmer: rules can cause divergence %************************************************************************ %* * Rebuilding a case expression %* * %************************************************************************ Note [Case elimination] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The case-elimination transformation discards redundant case expressions. Start with a simple situation: case x# of ===> let y# = x# in e y# -> e (when x#, y# are of primitive type, of course). We can't (in general) do this for algebraic cases, because we might turn bottom into non-bottom! The code in SimplUtils.prepareAlts has the effect of generalise this idea to look for a case where we're scrutinising a variable, and we know that only the default case can match. For example: case x of 0# -> ... DEFAULT -> ...(case x of 0# -> ... DEFAULT -> ...) ... Here the inner case is first trimmed to have only one alternative, the DEFAULT, after which it's an instance of the previous case. This really only shows up in eliminating error-checking code. Note that SimplUtils.mkCase combines identical RHSs. So case e of ===> case e of DEFAULT -> r True -> r False -> r Now again the case may be elminated by the CaseElim transformation. This includes things like (==# a# b#)::Bool so that we simplify case ==# a# b# of { True -> x; False -> x } to just x This particular example shows up in default methods for comparision operations (e.g. in (>=) for Int.Int32) Note [Case elimination: lifted case] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We also make sure that we deal with this very common case, where x has a lifted type: case e of x -> ...x... Here we are using the case as a strict let; if x is used only once then we want to inline it. We have to be careful that this doesn't make the program terminate when it would have diverged before, so we check that (a) 'e' is already evaluated (it may so if e is a variable) Specifically we check (exprIsHNF e) or (b) 'x' is not used at all and e is ok-for-speculation For the (b), consider case (case a ># b of { True -> (p,q); False -> (q,p) }) of r -> blah The scrutinee is ok-for-speculation (it looks inside cases), but we do not want to transform to let r = case a ># b of { True -> (p,q); False -> (q,p) } in blah because that builds an unnecessary thunk. Note [Case binder next] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If we have case e of f { _ -> f e1 e2 } then we can safely do CaseElim. The main criterion is that the case-binder is evaluated *next*. Previously we just asked that the case-binder is used strictly; but that can change case x of { _ -> error "bad" } --> error "bad" which is very puzzling if 'x' is later bound to (error "good"). Where the order of evaluation is specified (via seq or case) we should respect it. See also Note [Empty case alternatives] in CoreSyn. So instead we use case_bndr_evald_next to see when f is the *next* thing to be eval'd. This came up when fixing Trac #7542. See also Note [Eta reduction of an eval'd function] in CoreUtils. For reference, the old code was an extra disjunct in elim_lifted || (strict_case_bndr && scrut_is_var scrut) strict_case_bndr = isStrictDmd (idDemandInfo case_bndr) scrut_is_var (Cast s _) = scrut_is_var s scrut_is_var (Var _) = True scrut_is_var _ = False -- True if evaluation of the case_bndr is the next -- thing to be eval'd. Then dropping the case Note [Case elimination: unlifted case] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider case a +# b of r -> ...r... Then we do case-elimination (to make a let) followed by inlining, to get .....(a +# b).... If we have case indexArray# a i of r -> ...r... we might like to do the same, and inline the (indexArray# a i). But indexArray# is not okForSpeculation, so we don't build a let in rebuildCase (lest it get floated *out*), so the inlining doesn't happen either. This really isn't a big deal I think. The let can be Further notes about case elimination ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider: test :: Integer -> IO () test = print Turns out that this compiles to: Print.test = \ eta :: Integer eta1 :: Void# -> case PrelNum.< eta PrelNum.zeroInteger of wild { __DEFAULT -> case hPutStr stdout (PrelNum.jtos eta ($w[] @ Char)) eta1 of wild1 { (# new_s, a4 #) -> PrelIO.lvl23 new_s }} Notice the strange '<' which has no effect at all. This is a funny one. It started like this: f x y = if x < 0 then jtos x else if y==0 then "" else jtos x At a particular call site we have (f v 1). So we inline to get if v < 0 then jtos x else if 1==0 then "" else jtos x Now simplify the 1==0 conditional: if v<0 then jtos v else jtos v Now common-up the two branches of the case: case (v<0) of DEFAULT -> jtos v Why don't we drop the case? Because it's strict in v. It's technically wrong to drop even unnecessary evaluations, and in practice they may be a result of 'seq' so we *definitely* don't want to drop those. I don't really know how to improve this situation. \begin{code}

\end{code} simplCaseBinder checks whether the scrutinee is a variable, v. If so, try to eliminate uses of v in the RHSs in favour of case_bndr; that way, there's a chance that v will now only be used once, and hence inlined. Historical note: we use to do the "case binder swap" in the Simplifier so there were additional complications if the scrutinee was a variable. Now the binder-swap stuff is done in the occurrence analyer; see OccurAnal Note [Binder swap]. Note [knownCon occ info] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If the case binder is not dead, then neither are the pattern bound variables: case of x { (a,b) -> case x of { (p,q) -> p } } Here (a,b) both look dead, but come alive after the inner case is eliminated. The point is that we bring into the envt a binding let x = (a,b) after the outer case, and that makes (a,b) alive. At least we do unless the case binder is guaranteed dead. Note [Case alternative occ info] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When we are simply reconstructing a case (the common case), we always zap the occurrence info on the binders in the alternatives. Even if the case binder is dead, the scrutinee is usually a variable, and *that* can bring the case-alternative binders back to life. See Note [Add unfolding for scrutinee] Note [Improving seq] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider type family F :: * -> * type instance F Int = Int ... case e of x { DEFAULT -> rhs } ... where x::F Int. Then we'd like to rewrite (F Int) to Int, getting case e `cast` co of x'::Int I# x# -> let x = x' `cast` sym co in rhs so that 'rhs' can take advantage of the form of x'. Notice that Note [Case of cast] (in OccurAnal) may then apply to the result. Nota Bene: We only do the [Improving seq] transformation if the case binder 'x' is actually used in the rhs; that is, if the case is *not* a *pure* seq. a) There is no point in adding the cast to a pure seq. b) There is a good reason not to: doing so would interfere with seq rules (Note [Built-in RULES for seq] in MkId). In particular, this [Improving seq] thing *adds* a cast while [Built-in RULES for seq] *removes* one, so they just flip-flop. You might worry about case v of x { __DEFAULT -> ... case (v `cast` co) of y { I# -> ... }} This is a pure seq (since x is unused), so [Improving seq] won't happen. But it's ok: the simplifier will replace 'v' by 'x' in the rhs to get case v of x { __DEFAULT -> ... case (x `cast` co) of y { I# -> ... }} Now the outer case is not a pure seq, so [Improving seq] will happen, and then the inner case will disappear. The need for [Improving seq] showed up in Roman's experiments. Example: foo :: F Int -> Int -> Int foo t n = t `seq` bar n where bar 0 = 0 bar n = bar (n - case t of TI i -> i) Here we'd like to avoid repeated evaluating t inside the loop, by taking advantage of the `seq`. At one point I did transformation in LiberateCase, but it's more robust here. (Otherwise, there's a danger that we'll simply drop the 'seq' altogether, before LiberateCase gets to see it.) \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Add unfolding for scrutinee] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In general it's unlikely that a variable scrutinee will appear in the case alternatives case x of { ...x unlikely to appear... } because the binder-swap in OccAnal has got rid of all such occcurrences See Note [Binder swap] in OccAnal. BUT it is still VERY IMPORTANT to add a suitable unfolding for a variable scrutinee, in simplAlt. Here's why case x of y (a,b) -> case b of c I# v -> ...(f y)... There is no occurrence of 'b' in the (...(f y)...). But y gets the unfolding (a,b), and *that* mentions b. If f has a RULE RULE f (p, I# q) = ... we want that rule to match, so we must extend the in-scope env with a suitable unfolding for 'y'. It's *essential* for rule matching; but it's also good for case-elimintation -- suppose that 'f' was inlined and did multi-level case analysis, then we'd solve it in one simplifier sweep instead of two. Exactly the same issue arises in SpecConstr; see Note [Add scrutinee to ValueEnv too] in SpecConstr HOWEVER, given case x of y { Just a -> r1; Nothing -> r2 } we do not want to add the unfolding x -> y to 'x', which might seem cool, since 'y' itself has different unfoldings in r1 and r2. Reason: if we did that, we'd have to zap y's deadness info and that is a very useful piece of information. So instead we add the unfolding x -> Just a, and x -> Nothing in the respective RHSs. %************************************************************************ %* * \subsection{Known constructor} %* * %************************************************************************ We are a bit careful with occurrence info. Here's an example (\x* -> case x of (a*, b) -> f a) (h v, e) where the * means "occurs once".

\end{code} Note [Fusing case continuations] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It's important to fuse two successive case continuations when the first has one alternative. That's why we call prepareCaseCont here. Consider this, which arises from thunk splitting (see Note [Thunk splitting] in WorkWrap): let x* = case (case v of {pn -> rn}) of I# a -> I# a in body The simplifier will find (Var v) with continuation Select (pn -> rn) ( Select [I# a -> I# a] ( StrictBind body Stop So we'll call mkDupableCont on Select [I# a -> I# a] (StrictBind body Stop) There is just one alternative in the first Select, so we want to simplify the rhs (I# a) with continuation (StricgtBind body Stop) Supposing that body is big, we end up with let $j a = in case v of { pn -> case rn of I# a -> $j a } This is just what we want because the rn produces a box that the case rn cancels with. See Trac #4957 a fuller example. Note [Case binders and join points] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider this case (case .. ) of c { I# c# -> ....c.... If we make a join point with c but not c# we get $j = \c -> ....c.... But if later inlining scrutines the c, thus $j = \c -> ... case c of { I# y -> ... } ... we won't see that 'c' has already been scrutinised. This actually happens in the 'tabulate' function in wave4main, and makes a significant difference to allocation. An alternative plan is this: $j = \c# -> let c = I# c# in ...c.... but that is bad if 'c' is *not* later scrutinised. So instead we do both: we pass 'c' and 'c#' , and record in c's inlining (an InlineRule) that it's really I# c#, thus $j = \c# -> \c[=I# c#] -> ...c.... Absence analysis may later discard 'c'. NB: take great care when doing strictness analysis; see Note [Lamba-bound unfoldings] in DmdAnal. Also note that we can still end up passing stuff that isn't used. Before strictness analysis we have let $j x y c{=(x,y)} = (h c, ...) in ... After strictness analysis we see that h is strict, we end up with let $j x y c{=(x,y)} = ($wh x y, ...) and c is unused. Note [Duplicated env] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Some of the alternatives are simplified, but have not been turned into a join point So they *must* have an zapped subst-env. So we can't use completeNonRecX to bind the join point, because it might to do PostInlineUnconditionally, and we'd lose that when zapping the subst-env. We could have a per-alt subst-env, but zapping it (as we do in mkDupableCont, the Select case) is safe, and at worst delays the join-point inlining. Note [Small alternative rhs] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It is worth checking for a small RHS because otherwise we get extra let bindings that may cause an extra iteration of the simplifier to inline back in place. Quite often the rhs is just a variable or constructor. The Ord instance of Maybe in PrelMaybe.lhs, for example, took several extra iterations because the version with the let bindings looked big, and so wasn't inlined, but after the join points had been inlined it looked smaller, and so was inlined. NB: we have to check the size of rhs', not rhs. Duplicating a small InAlt might invalidate occurrence information However, if it *is* dupable, we return the *un* simplified alternative, because otherwise we'd need to pair it up with an empty subst-env.... but we only have one env shared between all the alts. (Remember we must zap the subst-env before re-simplifying something). Rather than do this we simply agree to re-simplify the original (small) thing later. Note [Funky mkPiTypes] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Notice the funky mkPiTypes. If the contructor has existentials it's possible that the join point will be abstracted over type varaibles as well as term variables. Example: Suppose we have data T = forall t. C [t] Then faced with case (case e of ...) of C t xs::[t] -> rhs We get the join point let j :: forall t. [t] -> ... j = /\t \xs::[t] -> rhs in case (case e of ...) of C t xs::[t] -> j t xs Note [Join point abstraction] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Join points always have at least one value argument, for several reasons * If we try to lift a primitive-typed something out for let-binding-purposes, we will *caseify* it (!), with potentially-disastrous strictness results. So instead we turn it into a function: \v -> e where v::Void#. The value passed to this function is void, which generates (almost) no code. * CPR. We used to say "&& isUnLiftedType rhs_ty'" here, but now we make the join point into a function whenever used_bndrs' is empty. This makes the join-point more CPR friendly. Consider: let j = if .. then I# 3 else I# 4 in case .. of { A -> j; B -> j; C -> ... } Now CPR doesn't w/w j because it's a thunk, so that means that the enclosing function can't w/w either, which is a lose. Here's the example that happened in practice: kgmod :: Int -> Int -> Int kgmod x y = if x > 0 && y < 0 || x < 0 && y > 0 then 78 else 5 * Let-no-escape. We want a join point to turn into a let-no-escape so that it is implemented as a jump, and one of the conditions for LNE is that it's not updatable. In CoreToStg, see Note [What is a non-escaping let] * Floating. Since a join point will be entered once, no sharing is gained by floating out, but something might be lost by doing so because it might be allocated. I have seen a case alternative like this: True -> \v -> ... It's a bit silly to add the realWorld dummy arg in this case, making $j = \s v -> ... True -> $j s (the \v alone is enough to make CPR happy) but I think it's rare There's a slight infelicity here: we pass the overall case_bndr to all the join points if it's used in *any* RHS, because we don't know its usage in each RHS separately Note [Duplicating StrictArg] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The original plan had (where E is a big argument) e.g. f E [..hole..] ==> let $j = \a -> f E a in $j [..hole..] But this is terrible! Here's an example: && E (case x of { T -> F; F -> T }) Now, && is strict so we end up simplifying the case with an ArgOf continuation. If we let-bind it, we get let $j = \v -> && E v in simplExpr (case x of { T -> F; F -> T }) (ArgOf (\r -> $j r) And after simplifying more we get let $j = \v -> && E v in case x of { T -> $j F; F -> $j T } Which is a Very Bad Thing What we do now is this f E [..hole..] ==> let a = E in f a [..hole..] Now if the thing in the hole is a case expression (which is when we'll call mkDupableCont), we'll push the function call into the branches, which is what we want. Now RULES for f may fire, and call-pattern specialisation. Here's an example from Trac #3116 go (n+1) (case l of 1 -> bs' _ -> Chunk p fpc (o+1) (l-1) bs') If we can push the call for 'go' inside the case, we get call-pattern specialisation for 'go', which is *crucial* for this program. Here is the (&&) example: && E (case x of { T -> F; F -> T }) ==> let a = E in case x of { T -> && a F; F -> && a T } Much better! Notice that * Arguments to f *after* the strict one are handled by the ApplyTo case of mkDupableCont. Eg f [..hole..] E * We can only do the let-binding of E because the function part of a StrictArg continuation is an explicit syntax tree. In earlier versions we represented it as a function (CoreExpr -> CoreEpxr) which we couldn't take apart. Do *not* duplicate StrictBind and StritArg continuations. We gain nothing by propagating them into the expressions, and we do lose a lot. The desire not to duplicate is the entire reason that mkDupableCont returns a pair of continuations. Note [Duplicating StrictBind] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Unlike StrictArg, there doesn't seem anything to gain from duplicating a StrictBind continuation, so we don't. Note [Single-alternative cases] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This case is just like the ArgOf case. Here's an example: data T a = MkT !a ...(MkT (abs x))... Then we get case (case x of I# x' -> case x' <# 0# of True -> I# (negate# x') False -> I# x') of y { DEFAULT -> MkT y Because the (case x) has only one alternative, we'll transform to case x of I# x' -> case (case x' <# 0# of True -> I# (negate# x') False -> I# x') of y { DEFAULT -> MkT y But now we do *NOT* want to make a join point etc, giving case x of I# x' -> let $j = \y -> MkT y in case x' <# 0# of True -> $j (I# (negate# x')) False -> $j (I# x') In this case the $j will inline again, but suppose there was a big strict computation enclosing the orginal call to MkT. Then, it won't "see" the MkT any more, because it's big and won't get duplicated. And, what is worse, nothing was gained by the case-of-case transform. So, in circumstances like these, we don't want to build join points and push the outer case into the branches of the inner one. Instead, don't duplicate the continuation. When should we use this strategy? We should not use it on *every* single-alternative case: e.g. case (case ....) of (a,b) -> (# a,b #) Here we must push the outer case into the inner one! Other choices: * Match [(DEFAULT,_,_)], but in the common case of Int, the alternative-filling-in code turned the outer case into case (...) of y { I# _ -> MkT y } * Match on single alternative plus (not (isDeadBinder case_bndr)) Rationale: pushing the case inwards won't eliminate the construction. But there's a risk of case (...) of y { (a,b) -> let z=(a,b) in ... } Now y looks dead, but it'll come alive again. Still, this seems like the best option at the moment. * Match on single alternative plus (all (isDeadBinder bndrs)) Rationale: this is essentially seq. * Match when the rhs is *not* duplicable, and hence would lead to a join point. This catches the disaster-case above. We can test the *un-simplified* rhs, which is fine. It might get bigger or smaller after simplification; if it gets smaller, this case might fire next time round. NB also that we must test contIsDupable case_cont *too, because case_cont might be big! HOWEVER: I found that this version doesn't work well, because we can get let x = case (...) of { small } in ...case x... When x is inlined into its full context, we find that it was a bad idea to have pushed the outer case inside the (...) case. Note [Single-alternative-unlifted] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here's another single-alternative where we really want to do case-of-case: data Mk1 = Mk1 Int# | Mk2 Int# M1.f = \r [x_s74 y_s6X] case case y_s6X of tpl_s7m { M1.Mk1 ipv_s70 -> ipv_s70; M1.Mk2 ipv_s72 -> ipv_s72; } of wild_s7c { __DEFAULT -> case case x_s74 of tpl_s7n { M1.Mk1 ipv_s77 -> ipv_s77; M1.Mk2 ipv_s79 -> ipv_s79; } of wild1_s7b { __DEFAULT -> ==# [wild1_s7b wild_s7c]; }; }; So the outer case is doing *nothing at all*, other than serving as a join-point. In this case we really want to do case-of-case and decide whether to use a real join point or just duplicate the continuation: let $j s7c = case x of Mk1 ipv77 -> (==) s7c ipv77 Mk1 ipv79 -> (==) s7c ipv79 in case y of Mk1 ipv70 -> $j ipv70 Mk2 ipv72 -> $j ipv72 Hence: check whether the case binder's type is unlifted, because then the outer case is *not* a seq.
