@mkPiType@ makes a (->) type or a forall type, depending on whether
it is given a type variable or a term variable.  We cleverly use the
lbvarinfo field to figure out the right annotation for the arrove in
case of a term variable.

mkNote removes redundant coercions, and SCCs where possible

\begin{code}
#ifdef UNUSED
mkNote :: Note -> CoreExpr -> CoreExpr
mkNote (Coerce to_ty from_ty) expr = mkCoerce2 to_ty from_ty expr
mkNote (SCC cc) expr               = mkSCC cc expr
mkNote InlineMe expr               = mkInlineMe expr
mkNote note     expr               = Note note expr
#endif
\end{code}

Drop trivial InlineMe's.  This is somewhat important, because if we have an unfolding
that looks like (Note InlineMe (Var v)), the InlineMe doesn't go away because it may
not be *applied* to anything.

We don't use exprIsTrivial here, though, because we sometimes generate worker/wrapper
bindings like
        fw = ...
        f  = inline_me (coerce t fw)
As usual, the inline_me prevents the worker from getting inlined back into the wrapper.
We want the split, so that the coerces can cancel at the call site.  

However, we can get left with tiresome type applications.  Notably, consider
        f = /\ a -> let t = e in (t, w)
Then lifting the let out of the big lambda gives
        t' = /\a -> e
        f = /\ a -> let t = inline_me (t' a) in (t, w)
The inline_me is to stop the simplifier inlining t' right back
into t's RHS.  In the next phase we'll substitute for t (since
its rhs is trivial) and *then* we could get rid of the inline_me.
But it hardly seems worth it, so I don't bother.

\begin{code}
mkInlineMe (Var v) = Var v
mkInlineMe e       = Note InlineMe e
\end{code}



\begin{code}

  = ASSERT( from_ty `coreEqType` to_ty2 )
    mkCoerce2 to_ty from_ty2 expr

mkCoerce2 to_ty from_ty expr
  | to_ty `coreEqType` from_ty = expr
  | otherwise              = ASSERT( from_ty `coreEqType` exprType expr )

@exprIsTrivial@ is true of expressions we are unconditionally happy to
                duplicate; simple variables and constants, and type
                applications.  Note that primop Ids aren't considered
                trivial unless 

@exprIsBottom@  is true of expressions that are guaranteed to diverge


There used to be a gruesome test for (hasNoBinding v) in the
Var case:
        exprIsTrivial (Var v) | hasNoBinding v = idArity v == 0
The idea here is that a constructor worker, like $wJust, is
really short for (\x -> $wJust x), becuase $wJust has no binding.
So it should be treated like a lambda.  Ditto unsaturated primops.
But now constructor workers are not "have-no-binding" Ids.  And
completely un-applied primops and foreign-call Ids are sufficiently
rare that I plan to allow them to be duplicated and put up with
saturating them.

SCC notes.  We do not treat (_scc_ "foo" x) as trivial, because 
  a) it really generates code, (and a heap object when it's 
     a function arg) to capture the cost centre
  b) see the note [SCC-and-exprIsTrivial] in Simplify.simplLazyBind

\begin{code}
exprIsTrivial (Var v)      = True       -- See notes above
exprIsTrivial (Type _)     = True
exprIsTrivial (Lit lit)    = litIsTrivial lit
exprIsTrivial (App e arg)  = not (isRuntimeArg arg) && exprIsTrivial e
exprIsTrivial (Note (SCC _) e) = False          -- See notes above
exprIsTrivial (Note _       e) = exprIsTrivial e
exprIsTrivial (Lam b body) = not (isRuntimeVar b) && exprIsTrivial body
exprIsTrivial other        = False
\end{code}


@exprIsDupable@ is true of expressions that can be duplicated at a modest
                cost in code size.  This will only happen in different case
                branches, so there's no issue about duplicating work.

                That is, exprIsDupable returns True of (f x) even if
                f is very very expensive to call.

                Its only purpose is to avoid fruitless let-binding
                and then inlining of case join points


\begin{code}
exprIsDupable (Type _)          = True
exprIsDupable (Var v)           = True
exprIsDupable (Lit lit)         = litIsDupable lit
exprIsDupable (Note InlineMe e) = True
exprIsDupable (Note _ e)        = exprIsDupable e
exprIsDupable expr           
  = go expr 0
  where
    go (Var v)   n_args = True
    go (App f a) n_args =  n_args < dupAppSize
                        && exprIsDupable a
                        && go f (n_args+1)
    go other n_args     = False

dupAppSize :: Int
dupAppSize = 4          -- Size of application we are prepared to duplicate
\end{code}

@exprIsCheap@ looks at a Core expression and returns \tr{True} if
it is obviously in weak head normal form, or is cheap to get to WHNF.
[Note that that's not the same as exprIsDupable; an expression might be
big, and hence not dupable, but still cheap.]

By ``cheap'' we mean a computation we're willing to:
        push inside a lambda, or
        inline at more than one place
That might mean it gets evaluated more than once, instead of being
shared.  The main examples of things which aren't WHNF but are
``cheap'' are:

  *     case e of
          pi -> ei
        (where e, and all the ei are cheap)

  *     let x = e in b
        (where e and b are cheap)

  *     op x1 ... xn
        (where op is a cheap primitive operator)

  *     error "foo"
        (because we are happy to substitute it inside a lambda)

Notice that a variable is considered 'cheap': we can push it inside a lambda,
because sharing will make sure it is only evaluated once.

        * safe to evaluate even if normal order eval might not 
          evaluate the expression at all, or

        * safe *not* to evaluate even if normal order would do so

It returns True iff

        the expression guarantees to terminate, 
        soon, 
        without raising an exception,
        without causing a side effect (e.g. writing a mutable variable)

NB: if exprIsHNF e, then exprOkForSpecuation e

E.G.
        let x = case y# +# 1# of { r# -> I# r# }
        in E
==>
        case y# +# 1# of { r# -> 
        let x = I# r#
        in E 
        }

We can only do this if the (y+1) is ok for speculation: it has no
side effects, and can't diverge or raise an exception.

@exprIsHNF@ returns true for expressions that are certainly *already* 
evaluated to *head* normal form.  This is used to decide whether it's ok 
to change

        case x of _ -> e   ===>   e

and to decide whether it's safe to discard a `seq`

So, it does *not* treat variables as evaluated, unless they say they are.

But it *does* treat partial applications and constructor applications
as values, even if their arguments are non-trivial, provided the argument
type is lifted; 
        e.g.  (:) (f x) (map f xs)      is a value
              map (...redex...)         is a value
Because `seq` on such things completes immediately

For unlifted argument types, we have to be careful:
                C (f x :: Int#)
Suppose (f x) diverges; then C (f x) is not a value.  True, but
this form is illegal (see the invariants in CoreSyn).  Args of unboxed
type must be ok-for-speculation (or trivial).

\begin{code}
exprEtaExpandArity :: DynFlags -> CoreExpr -> Arity
{- The Arity returned is the number of value args the 
   thing can be applied to without doing much work

exprEtaExpandArity is used when eta expanding
        e  ==>  \xy -> e x y

It returns 1 (or more) to:
        case x of p -> \s -> ...
because for I/O ish things we really want to get that \s to the top.
We are prepared to evaluate x each time round the loop in order to get that

It's all a bit more subtle than it looks:

1.  One-shot lambdas

Consider one-shot lambdas
                let x = expensive in \y z -> E
We want this to have arity 2 if the \y-abstraction is a 1-shot lambda
Hence the ArityType returned by arityType

2.  The state-transformer hack

The one-shot lambda special cause is particularly important/useful for
IO state transformers, where we often get
        let x = E in \ s -> ...

and the \s is a real-world state token abstraction.  Such abstractions
are almost invariably 1-shot, so we want to pull the \s out, past the
let x=E, even if E is expensive.  So we treat state-token lambdas as 
one-shot even if they aren't really.  The hack is in Id.isOneShotBndr.

3.  Dealing with bottom

Consider also 
        f = \x -> error "foo"
Here, arity 1 is fine.  But if it is
        f = \x -> case x of 
                        True  -> error "foo"
                        False -> \y -> x+y
then we want to get arity 2.  Tecnically, this isn't quite right, because
        (f True) `seq` 1
should diverge, but it'll converge if we eta-expand f.  Nevertheless, we
do so; it improves some programs significantly, and increasing convergence
isn't a bad thing.  Hence the ABot/ATop in ArityType.

Actually, the situation is worse.  Consider
        f = \x -> case x of
                        True  -> \y -> x+y
                        False -> \y -> x-y
Can we eta-expand here?  At first the answer looks like "yes of course", but
consider
        (f bot) `seq` 1
This should diverge!  But if we eta-expand, it won't.   Again, we ignore this
"problem", because being scrupulous would lose an important transformation for
many programs.


4. Newtypes

Non-recursive newtypes are transparent, and should not get in the way.
We do (currently) eta-expand recursive newtypes too.  So if we have, say

        newtype T = MkT ([T] -> Int)

Suppose we have
        e = coerce T f
where f has arity 1.  Then: etaExpandArity e = 1; 
that is, etaExpandArity looks through the coerce.

When we eta-expand e to arity 1: eta_expand 1 e T
we want to get:                  coerce T (\x::[T] -> (coerce ([T]->Int) e) x)

HOWEVER, note that if you use coerce bogusly you can ge
        coerce Int negate
And since negate has arity 2, you might try to eta expand.  But you can't
decopose Int to a function type.   Hence the final case in eta_expand.

exprArity is a cheap-and-cheerful version of exprEtaExpandArity.
It tells how many things the expression can be applied to before doing
any work.  It doesn't look inside cases, lets, etc.  The idea is that
exprEtaExpandArity will do the hard work, leaving something that's easy
for exprArity to grapple with.  In particular, Simplify uses exprArity to
compute the ArityInfo for the Id. 

Originally I thought that it was enough just to look for top-level lambdas, but
it isn't.  I've seen this

        foo = PrelBase.timesInt

We want foo to get arity 2 even though the eta-expander will leave it
unchanged, in the expectation that it'll be inlined.  But occasionally it
isn't, because foo is blacklisted (used in a rule).  

Similarly, see the ok_note check in exprEtaExpandArity.  So 
        f = __inline_me (\x -> e)
won't be eta-expanded.

And in any case it seems more robust to have exprArity be a bit more intelligent.
But note that   (\x y z -> f x y z)
should have arity 3, regardless of f's arity.

\begin{code}
exprArity :: CoreExpr -> Arity
exprArity e = go e
            where
              go (Var v)                   = idArity v
              go (Lam x e) | isId x        = go e + 1
                           | otherwise     = go e
              go (Note n e)                = go e
              go (App e (Type t))          = go e
              go (App f a) | exprIsCheap a = (go f - 1) `max` 0
                -- NB: exprIsCheap a!  
                --      f (fac x) does not have arity 2, 
                --      even if f has arity 3!
                -- NB: `max 0`!  (\x y -> f x) has arity 2, even if f is
                --               unknown, hence arity 0
              go _                         = 0

Top-level constructor applications can usually be allocated
statically, but they can't if the constructor, or any of the
arguments, come from another DLL (because we can't refer to static
labels in other DLLs).

If this happens we simply make the RHS into an updatable thunk, 
and 'exectute' it rather than allocating it statically.

\begin{code}
rhsIsStatic :: PackageId -> CoreExpr -> Bool
-- This function is called only on *top-level* right-hand sides
-- Returns True if the RHS can be allocated statically, with
-- no thunks involved at all.
--
-- It's called (i) in TidyPgm.hasCafRefs to decide if the rhs is, or
-- refers to, CAFs; and (ii) in CoreToStg to decide whether to put an
-- update flag on it.
--
-- The basic idea is that rhsIsStatic returns True only if the RHS is
--      (a) a value lambda
--      (b) a saturated constructor application with static args
--
-- BUT watch out for
--  (i) Any cross-DLL references kill static-ness completely
--      because they must be 'executed' not statically allocated
--      ("DLL" here really only refers to Windows DLLs, on other platforms,
--      this is not necessary)
--
-- (ii) We treat partial applications as redexes, because in fact we 
--      make a thunk for them that runs and builds a PAP
--      at run-time.  The only appliations that are treated as 
--      static are *saturated* applications of constructors.

-- We used to try to be clever with nested structures like this:
--              ys = (:) w ((:) w [])
-- on the grounds that CorePrep will flatten ANF-ise it later.
-- But supporting this special case made the function much more 
-- complicated, because the special case only applies if there are no 
-- enclosing type lambdas:
--              ys = /\ a -> Foo (Baz ([] a))
-- Here the nested (Baz []) won't float out to top level in CorePrep.
--
-- But in fact, even without -O, nested structures at top level are 
-- flattened by the simplifier, so we don't need to be super-clever here.
--
-- Examples
--
--      f = \x::Int. x+7        TRUE
--      p = (True,False)        TRUE
--
--      d = (fst p, False)      FALSE because there's a redex inside
--                              (this particular one doesn't happen but...)
--
--      h = D# (1.0## /## 2.0##)        FALSE (redex again)
--      n = /\a. Nil a                  TRUE
--
--      t = /\a. (:) (case w a of ...) (Nil a)  FALSE (redex)
--
--
-- This is a bit like CoreUtils.exprIsHNF, with the following differences:
--    a) scc "foo" (\x -> ...) is updatable (so we catch the right SCC)
--
--    b) (C x xs), where C is a contructors is updatable if the application is
--         dynamic
-- 
--    c) don't look through unfolding of f in (f x).
--
-- When opt_RuntimeTypes is on, we keep type lambdas and treat
-- them as making the RHS re-entrant (non-updatable).
