data LinkerEnv Source #

Constructors

LinkerEnv 

Fields

  • closure_env :: !ClosureEnv

    Current global mapping from closure Names to their true values

  • itbl_env :: !ItblEnv

    The current global mapping from RdrNames of DataCons to info table addresses. When a new LinkablePart is linked into the running image, or an existing module in the image is replaced, the itbl_env must be updated appropriately.

  • addr_env :: !AddrEnv

    Like closure_env and itbl_env, but for top-level 'Addr#' literals, see Note [Generating code for top-level string literal bindings] in GHC.StgToByteCode.

unionLinkableSet :: LinkableSet -> LinkableSet -> LinkableSet Source #

Union of LinkableSets.

In case of conflict, keep the most recent Linkable (as per linkableTime)

data SptEntry Source #

An entry to be inserted into a module's static pointer table. See Note [Grand plan for static forms] in GHC.Iface.Tidy.StaticPtrTable.

data Linkable Source #

Information we can use to dynamically link modules into the compiler

Fields

Outputable Linkable Source #

Defined in GHC.Linker.Types

Methods

ppr :: Linkable -> SDoc Source #

data LinkablePart Source #

Objects which have yet to be linked by the compiler

Constructors

DotO 

Fields

  • ObjFile

    An object file (.o)

  • LinkableObjectSort

    Whether the object is an internal, intermediate build product that should not be adapted to the interpreter's way. Used for foreign stubs loaded from interfaces.

DotA FilePath

Static archive file (.a)

DotDLL FilePath

Dynamically linked library file (.so, .dll, .dylib)

CoreBindings WholeCoreBindings

Serialised core which we can turn into BCOs (or object files), or used by some other backend See Note [Interface Files with Core Definitions]

LazyBCOs 

Fields

  • CompiledByteCode

    Some BCOs generated on-demand when forced. This is used for WholeCoreBindings, see Note [Interface Files with Core Definitions]

  • [FilePath]

    Objects containing foreign stubs and files

BCOs CompiledByteCode

A byte-code object, lives only in memory.

data LinkableObjectSort Source #

Classify the provenance of .o products.

Constructors

ModuleObject

The object is the final product for a module. When linking splices, its file extension will be adapted to the interpreter's way if needed.

ForeignObject

The object was created from generated code for foreign stubs or foreign sources added by the user. Its file extension must be preserved, since there are no objects for alternative ways available.

linkableIsNativeCodeOnly :: Linkable -> Bool Source #

Return true if the linkable only consists of native code (no BCO)

linkableObjs :: Linkable -> [FilePath] Source #

List the native objects (.o) of a linkable

linkableLibs :: Linkable -> [LinkablePart] Source #

List the native libraries (.so/.dll) of a linkable

linkableFiles :: Linkable -> [FilePath] Source #

List the paths of the native objects and libraries (.o.so.dll)

linkableBCOs :: Linkable -> [CompiledByteCode] Source #

List the BCOs parts of a linkable.

This excludes the LazyBCOs and the CoreBindings parts

linkableNativeParts :: Linkable -> [LinkablePart] Source #

List the native linkable parts (.o.so.dll) of a linkable

linkablePartitionParts :: Linkable -> ([LinkablePart], [LinkablePart]) Source #

Split linkable parts into (native code parts, BCOs parts)

linkablePartPath :: LinkablePart -> Maybe FilePath Source #

Get the FilePath of linkable part (if applicable)

linkablePartAllBCOs :: LinkablePart -> [CompiledByteCode] Source #

Retrieve the compiled byte-code from the linkable part.

Contrary to linkableBCOs, this includes byte-code from LazyBCOs.

isNativeCode :: LinkablePart -> Bool Source #

Is the part a native object or library? (.o.so.dll)

isNativeLib :: LinkablePart -> Bool Source #

Is the part a native library? (.so/.dll)

linkableFilterByteCode :: Linkable -> Maybe Linkable Source #

Transform the LinkablePart list in this Linkable to contain only byte code without LazyBCOs. If no LinkablePart remains, return Nothing.

linkableFilterNative :: Linkable -> Maybe Linkable Source #

Transform the LinkablePart list in this Linkable to contain only object code files (.o, .a, .so) without LazyBCOs. If no LinkablePart remains, return Nothing.

partitionLinkables :: [Linkable] -> ([Linkable], [Linkable]) Source #

Split the LinkablePart lists in each Linkable into only object code files (.o, .a, .so) and only byte code, without LazyBCOs, and return two lists containing the nonempty Linkables for each.
