Closure types
type Closure = GenClosure Box Source #
data GenClosure b Source #
This is the representation of a Haskell value on the heap. It reflects http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/browser/includes/rts/storage/Closures.h
The data type is parametrized by the type to store references in. Usually
this is a Box with the type synonym Closure.
All Heap objects have the same basic layout. A header containing a pointer
to the info table and a payload with various fields. The info field below
always refers to the info table pointed to by the header. The remaining
fields are the payload.
See https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary/Rts/Storage/HeapObjects for more information.

Info Table types
data StgInfoTable Source #
This is a somewhat faithful representation of an info table. See http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/browser/includes/rts/storage/InfoTables.h for more details on this data structure.
Constructors
| StgInfoTable | |
Instances
peekItbl :: Ptr StgInfoTable -> IO StgInfoTable Source #
Read an InfoTable from the heap into a haskell type. WARNING: This code assumes it is passed a pointer to a "standard" info table. If tables_next_to_code is enabled, it will look 1 byte before the start for the entry field.
pokeItbl :: Ptr StgInfoTable -> StgInfoTable -> IO () Source #
Closure inspection
getBoxedClosureData :: Box -> IO Closure Source #
Like getClosureData, but taking a Box, so it is easier to work with.
allClosures :: GenClosure b -> [b] Source #
For generic code, this function returns all referenced closures.
Boxes
An arbitrary Haskell value in a safe Box. The point is that even
unevaluated thunks can safely be moved around inside the Box, and when
required, e.g. in getBoxedClosureData, the function knows how far it has
to evaluate the argument.
This takes an arbitrary value and puts it into a box. Note that calls like
asBox (head list)
will put the thunk "head list" into the box, not the element at the head of the list. For that, use careful case expressions:
case list of x:_ -> asBox x
