        Notes about type families
-----------------------------------------------

Note [Type synonym families]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Type synonym families, also known as "type functions", map directly
  onto the type functions in FC:

        type family F a :: *
        type instance F Int = Bool
        ..etc...

* Reply "yes" to isTypeFamilyTyCon, and isFamilyTyCon

* From the user's point of view (F Int) and Bool are simply
  equivalent types.

* A Haskell 98 type synonym is a degenerate form of a type synonym
  family.

* Type functions can't appear in the LHS of a type function:
        type instance F (F Int) = ...   -- BAD!

* Translation of type family decl:
        type family F a :: *
  translates to
    a FamilyTyCon 'F', whose FamTyConFlav is OpenSynFamilyTyCon

        type family G a :: * where
          G Int = Bool
          G Bool = Char
          G a = ()
  translates to
    a FamilyTyCon 'G', whose FamTyConFlav is ClosedSynFamilyTyCon, with the
    appropriate CoAxiom representing the equations

* In the future we might want to support
    * injective type families (allow decomposition)
  but we don't at the moment [2013]

Note [Data type families]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
See also Note [Wrappers for data instance tycons] in MkId.lhs

* Data type families are declared thus
        data family T a :: *
        data instance T Int = T1 | T2 Bool

  Here T is the "family TyCon".

* Reply "yes" to isDataFamilyTyCon, and isFamilyTyCon

* The user does not see any "equivalent types" as he did with type
  synonym families.  He just sees constructors with types
        T1 :: T Int
        T2 :: Bool -> T Int

* Here's the FC version of the above declarations:

        data T a
        data R:TInt = T1 | T2 Bool
        axiom ax_ti : T Int ~ R:TInt

  The R:TInt is the "representation TyCons".
  It has an AlgTyConParent of
        FamInstTyCon T [Int] ax_ti

* The axiom ax_ti may be eta-reduced; see
  Note [Eta reduction for data family axioms] in TcInstDcls

* The data contructor T2 has a wrapper (which is what the
  source-level "T2" invokes):

        $WT2 :: Bool -> T Int
        $WT2 b = T2 b `cast` sym ax_ti

* A data instance can declare a fully-fledged GADT:

        data instance T (a,b) where
          X1 :: T (Int,Bool)
          X2 :: a -> b -> T (a,b)

  Here's the FC version of the above declaration:

        data R:TPair a where
          X1 :: R:TPair Int Bool
          X2 :: a -> b -> R:TPair a b
        axiom ax_pr :: T (a,b) ~ R:TPair a b

        $WX1 :: forall a b. a -> b -> T (a,b)
        $WX1 a b (x::a) (y::b) = X2 a b x y `cast` sym (ax_pr a b)

  The R:TPair are the "representation TyCons".
  We have a bit of work to do, to unpick the result types of the
  data instance declaration for T (a,b), to get the result type in the
  representation; e.g.  T (a,b) --> R:TPair a b

  The representation TyCon R:TList, has an AlgTyConParent of

        FamInstTyCon T [(a,b)] ax_pr

* Notice that T is NOT translated to a FC type function; it just
  becomes a "data type" with no constructors, which can be coerced inot
  into R:TInt, R:TPair by the axioms.  These axioms
  axioms come into play when (and *only* when) you
        - use a data constructor
        - do pattern matching
  Rather like newtype, in fact

  As a result

  - T behaves just like a data type so far as decomposition is concerned

  - (T Int) is not implicitly converted to R:TInt during type inference.
    Indeed the latter type is unknown to the programmer.

  - There *is* an instance for (T Int) in the type-family instance
    environment, but it is only used for overlap checking

  - It's fine to have T in the LHS of a type function:
    type instance F (T a) = [a]

  It was this last point that confused me!  The big thing is that you
  should not think of a data family T as a *type function* at all, not
  even an injective one!  We can't allow even injective type functions
  on the LHS of a type function:
        type family injective G a :: *
        type instance F (G Int) = Bool
  is no good, even if G is injective, because consider
        type instance G Int = Bool
        type instance F Bool = Char

  So a data type family is not an injective type function. It's just a
  data type with some axioms that connect it to other data types.

Note [Associated families and their parent class]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*Associated* families are just like *non-associated* families, except
that they have a TyConParent of AssocFamilyTyCon, which identifies the
parent class.

However there is an important sharing relationship between
  * the tyConTyVars of the parent Class
  * the tyConTyvars of the associated TyCon

   class C a b where
     data T p a
     type F a q b

Here the 'a' and 'b' are shared with the 'Class'; that is, they have
the same Unique.

This is important. In an instance declaration we expect
  * all the shared variables to be instantiated the same way
  * the non-shared variables of the associated type should not
    be instantiated at all

  instance C [x] (Tree y) where
     data T p [x] = T1 x | T2 p
     type F [x] q (Tree y) = (x,y,q)

Note [TyCon Role signatures]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Every tycon has a role signature, assigning a role to each of the tyConTyVars
(or of equal length to the tyConArity, if there are no tyConTyVars). An
example demonstrates these best: say we have a tycon T, with parameters a at
nominal, b at representational, and c at phantom. Then, to prove
representational equality between T a1 b1 c1 and T a2 b2 c2, we need to have
nominal equality between a1 and a2, representational equality between b1 and
b2, and nothing in particular (i.e., phantom equality) between c1 and c2. This
might happen, say, with the following declaration:

  data T a b c where
    MkT :: b -> T Int b c

Data and class tycons have their roles inferred (see inferRoles in TcTyDecls),
as do vanilla synonym tycons. Family tycons have all parameters at role N,
though it is conceivable that we could relax this restriction. (->)'s and
tuples' parameters are at role R. Each primitive tycon declares its roles;
it's worth noting that (~#)'s parameters are at role N. Promoted data
constructors' type arguments are at role R. All kind arguments are at role
N.

-- | TyCons represent type constructors. Type constructors are introduced by

{-
Note [Closed type families]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* In an open type family you can add new instances later.  This is the
  usual case.

* In a closed type family you can only put equations where the family
  is defined.


Note [Promoted data constructors]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A data constructor can be promoted to become a type constructor,
via the PromotedTyCon alternative in TyCon.

* Only data constructors with
     (a) no kind polymorphism
     (b) no constraints in its type (eg GADTs)
  are promoted.  Existentials are ok; see Trac #7347.

* The TyCon promoted from a DataCon has the *same* Name and Unique as
  the DataCon.  Eg. If the data constructor Data.Maybe.Just(unique 78,
  say) is promoted to a TyCon whose name is Data.Maybe.Just(unique 78)

* The *kind* of a promoted DataCon may be polymorphic.  Example:
    type of DataCon           Just :: forall (a:*). a -> Maybe a
    kind of (promoted) tycon  Just :: forall (a:box). a -> Maybe a
  The kind is not identical to the type, because of the */box
  kind signature on the forall'd variable; so the tyConKind field of
  PromotedTyCon is not identical to the dataConUserType of the
  DataCon.  But it's the same modulo changing the variable kinds,
  done by DataCon.promoteType.

* Small note: We promote the *user* type of the DataCon.  Eg
     data T = MkT {-# UNPACK #-} !(Bool, Bool)
  The promoted kind is
     MkT :: (Bool,Bool) -> T
  *not*
     MkT :: Bool -> Bool -> T

Note [Enumeration types]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We define datatypes with no constructors to *not* be
enumerations; this fixes trac #2578,  Otherwise we
end up generating an empty table for
  <mod>_<type>_closure_tbl
which is used by tagToEnum# to map Int# to constructors
in an enumeration. The empty table apparently upset
the linker.

Moreover, all the data constructor must be enumerations, meaning
they have type  (forall abc. T a b c).  GADTs are not enumerations.
For example consider
    data T a where
      T1 :: T Int
      T2 :: T Bool
      T3 :: T a
What would [T1 ..] be?  [T1,T3] :: T Int? Easiest thing is to exclude them.
See Trac #4528.

Note [Newtype coercions]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The NewTyCon field nt_co is a CoAxiom which is used for coercing from
the representation type of the newtype, to the newtype itself. For
example,

   newtype T a = MkT (a -> a)

the NewTyCon for T will contain nt_co = CoT where CoT t : T t ~ t -> t.

In the case that the right hand side is a type application
ending with the same type variables as the left hand side, we
"eta-contract" the coercion.  So if we had

   newtype S a = MkT [a]

then we would generate the arity 0 axiom CoS : S ~ [].  The
primary reason we do this is to make newtype deriving cleaner.

In the paper we'd write
        axiom CoT : (forall t. T t) ~ (forall t. [t])
and then when we used CoT at a particular type, s, we'd say
        CoT @ s
which encodes as (TyConApp instCoercionTyCon [TyConApp CoT [], s])

Note [Newtype eta]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Consider
        newtype Parser a = MkParser (IO a) deriving Monad
Are these two types equal (to Core)?
        Monad Parser
        Monad IO
which we need to make the derived instance for Monad Parser.

Well, yes.  But to see that easily we eta-reduce the RHS type of
Parser, in this case to ([], Froogle), so that even unsaturated applications
of Parser will work right.  This eta reduction is done when the type
constructor is built, and cached in NewTyCon.  The cached field is
only used in coreExpandTyCon_maybe.

Here's an example that I think showed up in practice
Source code:
        newtype T a = MkT [a]
        newtype Foo m = MkFoo (forall a. m a -> Int)

        w1 :: Foo []
        w1 = ...

        w2 :: Foo T
        w2 = MkFoo (\(MkT x) -> case w1 of MkFoo f -> f x)

After desugaring, and discarding the data constructors for the newtypes,
we get:
        w2 :: Foo T
        w2 = w1
And now Lint complains unless Foo T == Foo [], and that requires T==[]

This point carries over to the newtype coercion, because we need to
say
        w2 = w1 `cast` Foo CoT

so the coercion tycon CoT must have
        kind:    T ~ []
 and    arity:   0

Note [rep swamp]

GHC has a rich selection of types that represent "primitive types" of
one kind or another.  Each of them makes a different set of
distinctions, and mostly the differences are for good reasons,
although it's probably true that we could merge some of these.

Roughly in order of "includes more information":

 - A Width (cmm/CmmType) is simply a binary value with the specified
   number of bits.  It may represent a signed or unsigned integer, a
   floating-point value, or an address.

    data Width = W8 | W16 | W32 | W64 | W80 | W128

 - Size, which is used in the native code generator, is Width +
   floating point information.

   data Size = II8 | II16 | II32 | II64 | FF32 | FF64 | FF80

   it is necessary because e.g. the instruction to move a 64-bit float
   on x86 (movsd) is different from the instruction to move a 64-bit
   integer (movq), so the mov instruction is parameterised by Size.

 - CmmType wraps Width with more information: GC ptr, float, or
   other value.

    data CmmType = CmmType CmmCat Width

    data CmmCat     -- "Category" (not exported)
       = GcPtrCat   -- GC pointer
       | BitsCat    -- Non-pointer
       | FloatCat   -- Float

   It is important to have GcPtr information in Cmm, since we generate
   info tables containing pointerhood for the GC from this.  As for
   why we have float (and not signed/unsigned) here, see Note [Signed
   vs unsigned].

 - ArgRep makes only the distinctions necessary for the call and
   return conventions of the STG machine.  It is essentially CmmType
   + void.

 - PrimRep makes a few more distinctions than ArgRep: it divides
   non-GC-pointers into signed/unsigned and addresses, information
   that is necessary for passing these values to foreign functions.

There's another tension here: whether the type encodes its size in
bytes, or whether its size depends on the machine word size.  Width
and CmmType have the size built-in, whereas ArgRep and PrimRep do not.

This means to turn an ArgRep/PrimRep into a CmmType requires DynFlags.

On the other hand, CmmType includes some "nonsense" values, such as
CmmType GcPtrCat W32 on a 64-bit machine.

Note: the TyCon constructors all take a Kind as one argument, even though
they could, in principle, work out their Kind from their other arguments.
But to do so they need functions from Types, and that makes a nasty
module mutual-recursion.  And they aren't called from many places.
So we compromise, and move their Kind calculation to the call site.

Note [Expanding newtypes and products]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When expanding a type to expose a data-type constructor, we need to be
careful about newtypes, lest we fall into an infinite loop. Here are
the key examples:

  newtype Id  x = MkId x
  newtype Fix f = MkFix (f (Fix f))
  newtype T     = MkT (T -> T)

  Type           Expansion
 --------------------------
  T              T -> T
  Fix Maybe      Maybe (Fix Maybe)
  Id (Id Int)    Int
  Fix Id         NO NO NO

Notice that we can expand T, even though it's recursive.
And we can expand Id (Id Int), even though the Id shows up
twice at the outer level.

So, when expanding, we keep track of when we've seen a recursive
newtype at outermost level; and bale out if we see it again.

We sometimes want to do the same for product types, so that the
strictness analyser doesn't unbox infinitely deeply.

The function that manages this is checkRecTc.
