\end{code} Note [Overlap and deriving] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider some overlapping instances: data Show a => Show [a] where .. data Show [Char] where ... Now a data type with deriving: data T a = MkT [a] deriving( Show ) We want to get the derived instance instance Show [a] => Show (T a) where... and NOT instance Show a => Show (T a) where... so that the (Show (T Char)) instance does the Right Thing It's very like the situation when we're inferring the type of a function f x = show [x] and we want to infer f :: Show [a] => a -> String BOTTOM LINE: use vanilla, non-overlappable skolems when inferring the context for the derived instance. Hence tcInstSkolTyVars not tcInstSuperSkolTyVars Note [Exotic derived instance contexts] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In a 'derived' instance declaration, we *infer* the context. It's a bit unclear what rules we should apply for this; the Haskell report is silent. Obviously, constraints like (Eq a) are fine, but what about data T f a = MkT (f a) deriving( Eq ) where we'd get an Eq (f a) constraint. That's probably fine too. One could go further: consider data T a b c = MkT (Foo a b c) deriving( Eq ) instance (C Int a, Eq b, Eq c) => Eq (Foo a b c) Notice that this instance (just) satisfies the Paterson termination conditions. Then we *could* derive an instance decl like this: instance (C Int a, Eq b, Eq c) => Eq (T a b c) even though there is no instance for (C Int a), because there just *might* be an instance for, say, (C Int Bool) at a site where we need the equality instance for T's. However, this seems pretty exotic, and it's quite tricky to allow this, and yet give sensible error messages in the (much more common) case where we really want that instance decl for C. So for now we simply require that the derived instance context should have only type-variable constraints. Here is another example: data Fix f = In (f (Fix f)) deriving( Eq ) Here, if we are prepared to allow -XUndecidableInstances we could derive the instance instance Eq (f (Fix f)) => Eq (Fix f) but this is so delicate that I don't think it should happen inside 'deriving'. If you want this, write it yourself! NB: if you want to lift this condition, make sure you still meet the termination conditions! If not, the deriving mechanism generates larger and larger constraints. Example: data Succ a = S a data Seq a = Cons a (Seq (Succ a)) | Nil deriving Show Note the lack of a Show instance for Succ. First we'll generate instance (Show (Succ a), Show a) => Show (Seq a) and then instance (Show (Succ (Succ a)), Show (Succ a), Show a) => Show (Seq a) and so on. Instead we want to complain of no instance for (Show (Succ a)). The bottom line ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Allow constraints which consist only of type variables, with no repeats. ********************************************************************************* * * * Inference * * *********************************************************************************** Note [Which variables to quantify] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Suppose the inferred type of a function is T kappa (alpha:kappa) -> Int where alpha is a type unification variable and kappa is a kind unification variable Then we want to quantify over *both* alpha and kappa. But notice that kappa appears "at top level" of the type, as well as inside the kind of alpha. So it should be fine to just look for the "top level" kind/type variables of the type, without looking transitively into the kinds of those type variables. \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Minimize by Superclasses] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When we quantify over a constraint, in simplifyInfer we need to quantify over a constraint that is minimal in some sense: For instance, if the final wanted constraint is (Eq alpha, Ord alpha), we'd like to quantify over Ord alpha, because we can just get Eq alpha from superclass selection from Ord alpha. This minimization is what mkMinimalBySCs does. Then, simplifyInfer uses the minimal constraint to check the original wanted. \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Avoid unecessary constraint simplification] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When inferring the type of a let-binding, with simplifyInfer, try to avoid unnecessariliy simplifying class constraints. Doing so aids sharing, but it also helps with delicate situations like instance C t => C [t] where .. f :: C [t] => .... f x = let g y = ...(constraint C [t])... in ... When inferring a type for 'g', we don't want to apply the instance decl, because then we can't satisfy (C t). So we just notice that g isn't quantified over 't' and partition the contraints before simplifying. This only half-works, but then let-generalisation only half-works. Note [Inheriting implicit parameters] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider this: f x = (x::Int) + ?y where f is *not* a top-level binding. From the RHS of f we'll get the constraint (?y::Int). There are two types we might infer for f: f :: Int -> Int (so we get ?y from the context of f's definition), or f :: (?y::Int) => Int -> Int At first you might think the first was better, becuase then ?y behaves like a free variable of the definition, rather than having to be passed at each call site. But of course, the WHOLE IDEA is that ?y should be passed at each call site (that's what dynamic binding means) so we'd better infer the second. BOTTOM LINE: when *inferring types* you *must* quantify over implicit parameters. See the predicate isFreeWhenInferring. ********************************************************************************* * * * RULES * * * *********************************************************************************** Note [Simplifying RULE lhs constraints] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On the LHS of transformation rules we only simplify only equalities, but not dictionaries. We want to keep dictionaries unsimplified, to serve as the available stuff for the RHS of the rule. We *do* want to simplify equalities, however, to detect ill-typed rules that cannot be applied. Implementation: the TcSFlags carried by the TcSMonad controls the amount of simplification, so simplifyRuleLhs just sets the flag appropriately. Example. Consider the following left-hand side of a rule f (x == y) (y > z) = ... If we typecheck this expression we get constraints d1 :: Ord a, d2 :: Eq a We do NOT want to "simplify" to the LHS forall x::a, y::a, z::a, d1::Ord a. f ((==) (eqFromOrd d1) x y) ((>) d1 y z) = ... Instead we want forall x::a, y::a, z::a, d1::Ord a, d2::Eq a. f ((==) d2 x y) ((>) d1 y z) = ... Here is another example: fromIntegral :: (Integral a, Num b) => a -> b {-# RULES "foo" fromIntegral = id :: Int -> Int #-} In the rule, a=b=Int, and Num Int is a superclass of Integral Int. But we *dont* want to get forall dIntegralInt. fromIntegral Int Int dIntegralInt (scsel dIntegralInt) = id Int because the scsel will mess up RULE matching. Instead we want forall dIntegralInt, dNumInt. fromIntegral Int Int dIntegralInt dNumInt = id Int Even if we have g (x == y) (y == z) = .. where the two dictionaries are *identical*, we do NOT WANT forall x::a, y::a, z::a, d1::Eq a f ((==) d1 x y) ((>) d1 y z) = ... because that will only match if the dict args are (visibly) equal. Instead we want to quantify over the dictionaries separately. In short, simplifyRuleLhs must *only* squash equalities, leaving all dicts unchanged, with absolutely no sharing. HOWEVER, under a nested implication things are different Consider f :: (forall a. Eq a => a->a) -> Bool -> ... {-# RULES "foo" forall (v::forall b. Eq b => b->b). f b True = ... #=} Here we *must* solve the wanted (Eq a) from the given (Eq a) resulting from skolemising the agument type of g. So we revert to SimplCheck when going under an implication. \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Preparing inert set for implications] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Before solving the nested implications, we convert any unsolved flat wanteds to givens, and add them to the inert set. Reasons: a) In checking mode, suppresses unnecessary errors. We already have on unsolved-wanted error; adding it to the givens prevents any consequential errors from showing up b) More importantly, in inference mode, we are going to quantify over this constraint, and we *don't* want to quantify over any constraints that are deducible from it. c) Flattened type-family equalities must be exposed to the nested constraints. Consider F b ~ alpha, (forall c. F b ~ alpha) Obviously this is soluble with [alpha := F b]. But the unification is only done by solveCTyFunEqs, right at the end of solveWanteds, and if we aren't careful we'll end up with an unsolved goal inside the implication. We need to "push" the as-yes-unsolved (F b ~ alpha) inwards, as a *given*, so that it can be used to solve the inner (F b ~ alpha). See Trac #4935. d) There are other cases where interactions between wanteds that can help to solve a constraint. For example class C a b | a -> b (C Int alpha), (forall d. C d blah => C Int a) If we push the (C Int alpha) inwards, as a given, it can produce a fundep (alpha~a) and this can float out again and be used to fix alpha. (In general we can't float class constraints out just in case (C d blah) might help to solve (C Int a).) The unsolved wanteds are *canonical* but they may not be *inert*, because when made into a given they might interact with other givens. Hence the call to solveInteract. Example: Original inert set = (d :_g D a) /\ (co :_w a ~ [beta]) We were not able to solve (a ~w [beta]) but we can't just assume it as given because the resulting set is not inert. Hence we have to do a 'solveInteract' step first. Finally, note that we convert them to [Given] and NOT [Given/Solved]. The reason is that Given/Solved are weaker than Givens and may be discarded. As an example consider the inference case, where we may have, the following original constraints: [Wanted] F Int ~ Int (F Int ~ a => F Int ~ a) If we convert F Int ~ Int to [Given/Solved] instead of Given, then the next given (F Int ~ a) is going to cause the Given/Solved to be ignored, casting the (F Int ~ a) insoluble. Hence we should really convert the residual wanteds to plain old Given. We need only push in unsolved equalities both in checking mode and inference mode: (1) In checking mode we should not push given dictionaries in because of example LongWayOverlapping.hs, where we might get strange overlap errors between far-away constraints in the program. But even in checking mode, we must still push type family equations. Consider: type instance F True a b = a type instance F False a b = b [w] F c a b ~ gamma (c ~ True) => a ~ gamma (c ~ False) => b ~ gamma Since solveCTyFunEqs happens at the very end of solving, the only way to solve the two implications is temporarily consider (F c a b ~ gamma) as Given (NB: not merely Given/Solved because it has to interact with the top-level instance environment) and push it inside the implications. Now, when we come out again at the end, having solved the implications solveCTyFunEqs will solve this equality. (2) In inference mode, we recheck the final constraint in checking mode and hence we will be able to solve inner implications from top-level quantified constraints nonetheless. Note [Extra TcsTv untouchables] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Furthemore, we record the inert set simplifier-generated unification variables of the TcsTv kind (such as variables from instance that have been applied, or unification flattens). These variables must be passed to the implications as extra untouchable variables. Otherwise we have the danger of double unifications. Example (from trac ticket #4494): (F Int ~ uf) /\ (forall a. C a => F Int ~ beta) In this example, beta is touchable inside the implication. The first solveInteract step leaves 'uf' ununified. Then we move inside the implication where a new constraint uf ~ beta emerges. We may spontaneously solve it to get uf := beta, so the whole implication disappears but when we pop out again we are left with (F Int ~ uf) which will be unified by our final solveCTyFunEqs stage and uf will get unified *once more* to (F Int). The solution is to record the TcsTvs (i.e. the simplifier-generated unification variables) that are generated when solving the flats, and make them untouchables for the nested implication. In the example above uf would become untouchable, so beta would be forced to be unified as beta := uf. NB: A consequence is that every simplifier-generated TcsTv variable that gets floated out of an implication becomes now untouchable next time we go inside that implication to solve any residual constraints. In effect, by floating an equality out of the implication we are committing to have it solved in the outside. Note [Float Equalities out of Implications] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We want to float equalities out of vanilla existentials, but *not* out of GADT pattern matches. \begin{code}

\end{code} Note [Solving Family Equations] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After we are done with simplification we may be left with constraints of the form: [Wanted] F xis ~ beta If 'beta' is a touchable unification variable not already bound in the TyBinds then we'd like to create a binding for it, effectively "defaulting" it to be 'F xis'. When is it ok to do so? 1) 'beta' must not already be defaulted to something. Example: [Wanted] F Int ~ beta <~ Will default [beta := F Int] [Wanted] F Char ~ beta <~ Already defaulted, can't default again. We have to report this as unsolved. 2) However, we must still do an occurs check when defaulting (F xis ~ beta), to set [beta := F xis] only if beta is not among the free variables of xis. 3) Notice that 'beta' can't be bound in ty binds already because we rewrite RHS of type family equations.

\end{code} Note [tryTcS in defaulting] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ defaultTyVar and disambigGroup create new evidence variables for default equations, and hence update the EvVar cache. However, after applyDefaultingRules we will try to solve these default equations using solveInteractCts, which will consult the cache and solve those EvVars from themselves! That's wrong. To avoid this problem we guard defaulting under a @tryTcS@ which leaves the original cache unmodified. There is a second reason for @tryTcS@ in defaulting: disambGroup does some constraint solving to determine if a default equation is ``useful'' in solving some wanted constraints, but we want to discharge all evidence and unifications that may have happened during this constraint solving. Finally, @tryTcS@ importantly does not inherit the original cache from the higher level but makes up a new cache, the reason is that disambigGroup will call solveInteractCts so the new derived and the wanteds must not be in the cache! \begin{code}
