The controlling flags, and what they do
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

passes:
------
-fsimplify              = run the simplifier
-ffloat-inwards         = runs the float lets inwards pass
-ffloat                 = runs the full laziness pass
                          (ToDo: rename to -ffull-laziness)
-fupdate-analysis       = runs update analyser
-fstrictness            = runs strictness analyser
-fsaturate-apps         = saturates applications (eta expansion)

options:
-------
-ffloat-past-lambda     = OK to do full laziness.
                          (ToDo: remove, as the full laziness pass is
                                 useless without this flag, therefore
                                 it is unnecessary. Just -ffull-laziness
                                 should be kept.)

-ffloat-lets-ok         = OK to float lets out of lets if the enclosing
                          let is strict or if the floating will expose
                          a WHNF [simplifier].

-ffloat-primops-ok      = OK to float out of lets cases whose scrutinee
                          is a primop that cannot fail [simplifier].

-fcode-duplication-ok   = allows the previous option to work on cases with
                          multiple branches [simplifier].

-flet-to-case           = does let-to-case transformation [simplifier].

-fcase-of-case          = does case of case transformation [simplifier].

-fpedantic-bottoms      = does not allow:
                             case x of y -> e  ===>  e[x/y]
                          (which may turn bottom into non-bottom)


                        NOTES ON INLINING
                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Inlining is one of the delicate aspects of the simplifier.  By
``inlining'' we mean replacing an occurrence of a variable ``x'' by
the RHS of x's definition.  Thus

        let x = e in ...x...    ===>   let x = e in ...e...

We have two mechanisms for inlining:

1.  Unconditional.  The occurrence analyser has pinned an (OneOcc
FunOcc NoDupDanger NotInsideSCC n) flag on the variable, saying ``it's
certainly safe to inline this variable, and to drop its binding''.
(...Umm... if n <= 1; if n > 1, it is still safe, provided you are
happy to be duplicating code...) When it encounters such a beast, the
simplifer binds the variable to its RHS (in the id_env) and continues.
It doesn't even look at the RHS at that stage.  It also drops the
binding altogether.

2.  Conditional.  In all other situations, the simplifer simplifies
the RHS anyway, and keeps the new binding.  It also binds the new
(cloned) variable to a ``suitable'' Unfolding in the UnfoldEnv.

Here, ``suitable'' might mean NoUnfolding (if the occurrence
info is ManyOcc and the RHS is not a manifest HNF, or UnfoldAlways (if
the variable has an INLINE pragma on it).  The idea is that anything
in the UnfoldEnv is safe to use, but also has an enclosing binding if
you decide not to use it.

Head normal forms
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We *never* put a non-HNF unfolding in the UnfoldEnv except in the
INLINE-pragma case.

At one time I thought it would be OK to put non-HNF unfoldings in for
variables which occur only once [if they got inlined at that
occurrence the RHS of the binding would become dead, so no duplication
would occur].   But consider:
@
        let x = <expensive>
            f = \y -> ...y...y...y...
        in f x
@
Now, it seems that @x@ appears only once, but even so it is NOT safe
to put @x@ in the UnfoldEnv, because @f@ will be inlined, and will
duplicate the references to @x@.

Because of this, the "unconditional-inline" mechanism above is the
only way in which non-HNFs can get inlined.

INLINE pragmas
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When a variable has an INLINE pragma on it --- which includes wrappers
produced by the strictness analyser --- we treat it rather carefully.

For a start, we are careful not to substitute into its RHS, because
that might make it BIG, and the user said "inline exactly this", not
"inline whatever you get after inlining other stuff inside me".  For
example

        let f = BIG
        in {-# INLINE y #-} y = f 3
        in ...y...y...

Here we don't want to substitute BIG for the (single) occurrence of f,
because then we'd duplicate BIG when we inline'd y.  (Exception:
things in the UnfoldEnv with UnfoldAlways flags, which originated in
other INLINE pragmas.)

So, we clean out the UnfoldEnv of all SimpleUnfolding inlinings before
going into such an RHS.

What about imports?  They don't really matter much because we only
inline relatively small things via imports.

We augment the the UnfoldEnv with UnfoldAlways guidance if there's an
INLINE pragma.  We also do this for the RHSs of recursive decls,
before looking at the recursive decls. That way we achieve the effect
of inlining a wrapper in the body of its worker, in the case of a
mutually-recursive worker/wrapper split.

At the top level things are a little different.

  * No cloning (not allowed for exported Ids, unnecessary for the others)
  * Floating is done a bit differently (no case floating; check for leaks; handle letrec)

\begin{code}
simplExpr :: SimplEnv
          -> InExpr -> [OutArg]
          -> OutType            -- Type of (e args); i.e. type of overall result
          -> SmplM OutExpr
\end{code}

The expression returned has the same meaning as the input expression
applied to the specified arguments.


Variables
~~~~~~~~~
Check if there's a macro-expansion, and if so rattle on.  Otherwise do
the more sophisticated stuff.

\begin{code}
simplExpr env (Var var) args result_ty
  = case lookupIdSubst env var of
  
      Just (SubstExpr ty_subst id_subst expr)
        -> simplExpr (setSubstEnvs env ty_subst id_subst) expr args result_ty

      Just (SubstLit lit)               -- A boring old literal
        -> ASSERT( null args )
           returnSmpl (Lit lit)

      Just (SubstVar var')              -- More interesting!  An id!
        -> completeVar env var' args result_ty

      Nothing  -- Not in the substitution; hand off to completeVar
        -> completeVar env var args result_ty 
\end{code}

Literals
~~~~~~~~

\begin{code}
simplExpr env (Lit l) [] result_ty = returnSmpl (Lit l)
#ifdef DEBUG
simplExpr env (Lit l) _  _ = panic "simplExpr:Lit with argument"
#endif
\end{code}

Primitive applications are simple.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NB: Prim expects an empty argument list! (Because it should be
saturated and not higher-order. ADR)

\begin{code}
simplExpr env (Prim op prim_args) args result_ty
  = ASSERT (null args)
    mapEager (simplArg env) prim_args   `appEager` \ prim_args' ->
    simpl_op op                         `appEager` \ op' ->
    completePrim env op' prim_args'
  where
    -- PrimOps just need any types in them renamed.

    simpl_op (CCallOp label is_asm may_gc arg_tys result_ty)
      = mapEager (simplTy env) arg_tys  `appEager` \ arg_tys' ->
        simplTy env result_ty           `appEager` \ result_ty' ->
        returnEager (CCallOp label is_asm may_gc arg_tys' result_ty')

    simpl_op other_op = returnEager other_op
\end{code}

Constructor applications
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nothing to try here.  We only reuse constructors when they appear as the
rhs of a let binding (see completeLetBinding).

\begin{code}
simplExpr env (Con con con_args) args result_ty
  = ASSERT( null args )
    mapEager (simplArg env) con_args    `appEager` \ con_args' ->
    returnSmpl (Con con con_args')
\end{code}


Applications are easy too:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just stuff 'em in the arg stack

\begin{code}
simplExpr env (App fun arg) args result_ty
  = simplArg env arg    `appEager` \ arg' ->
    simplExpr env fun (arg' : args) result_ty
\end{code}

Type lambdas
~~~~~~~~~~~~

First the case when it's applied to an argument.

\begin{code}
simplExpr env (Lam (TyBinder tyvar) body) (TyArg ty : args) result_ty
  = tick TyBetaReduction        `thenSmpl_`
    simplExpr (bindTyVar env tyvar ty) body args result_ty
\end{code}

\begin{code}
simplExpr env tylam@(Lam (TyBinder tyvar) body) [] result_ty
  = simplTyBinder env tyvar     `thenSmpl` \ (new_env, tyvar') ->
    let
        new_result_ty = applyTy result_ty (mkTyVarTy tyvar')
    in
    simplExpr new_env body [] new_result_ty             `thenSmpl` \ body' ->
    returnSmpl (Lam (TyBinder tyvar') body')

#ifdef DEBUG
simplExpr env (Lam (TyBinder _) _) (_ : _) result_ty
  = panic "simplExpr:TyLam with non-TyArg"
#endif
\end{code}


Ordinary lambdas
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There's a complication with lambdas that aren't saturated.
Suppose we have:

        (\x. \y. ...x...)

If we did nothing, x is used inside the \y, so would be marked
as dangerous to dup.  But in the common case where the abstraction
is applied to two arguments this is over-pessimistic.
So instead we don't take account of the \y when dealing with x's usage;
instead, the simplifier is careful when partially applying lambdas.

\begin{code}
simplExpr env expr@(Lam (ValBinder binder) body) orig_args result_ty
  = go 0 env expr orig_args
  where
    go n env (Lam (ValBinder binder) body) (val_arg : args)
      | isValArg val_arg                -- The lambda has an argument
      = tick BetaReduction      `thenSmpl_`
        go (n+1) (bindIdToAtom env binder val_arg) body args

    go n env expr@(Lam (ValBinder binder) body) args
        -- The lambda is un-saturated, so we must zap the occurrence info
        -- on the arguments we've already beta-reduced into the body of the lambda
      = ASSERT( null args )     -- Value lambda must match value argument!
        let
            new_env = markDangerousOccs env orig_args
        in
        simplValLam new_env expr 0 {- Guaranteed applied to at least 0 args! -} result_ty 
                                `thenSmpl` \ (expr', arity) ->
        returnSmpl expr'

    go n env non_val_lam_expr args      -- The lambda had enough arguments
      = simplExpr env non_val_lam_expr args result_ty
\end{code}


Let expressions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

\begin{code}
simplExpr env (Let bind body) args result_ty
  = simplBind env bind (\env -> simplExpr env body args result_ty) result_ty
\end{code}

Case expressions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

\begin{code}
simplExpr env expr@(Case scrut alts) args result_ty
  = simplCase env scrut alts (\env rhs -> simplExpr env rhs args result_ty) result_ty
\end{code}


Coercions
~~~~~~~~~
\begin{code}
simplExpr env (Coerce coercion ty body) args result_ty
  = simplCoerce env coercion ty body args result_ty
\end{code}


Set-cost-centre
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1) Eliminating nested sccs ...
We must be careful to maintain the scc counts ...

\begin{code}
simplExpr env (SCC cc1 (SCC cc2 expr)) args result_ty
  | not (isSccCountCostCentre cc2) && case cmpCostCentre cc1 cc2 of { EQ -> True; _ -> False }
        -- eliminate inner scc if no call counts and same cc as outer
  = simplExpr env (SCC cc1 expr) args result_ty

  | not (isSccCountCostCentre cc2) && not (isSccCountCostCentre cc1)
        -- eliminate outer scc if no call counts associated with either ccs
  = simplExpr env (SCC cc2 expr) args result_ty
\end{code}

2) Moving sccs inside lambdas ...
  
\begin{code}
simplExpr env (SCC cc (Lam binder@(ValBinder _) body)) args result_ty
  | not (isSccCountCostCentre cc)
        -- move scc inside lambda only if no call counts
  = simplExpr env (Lam binder (SCC cc body)) args result_ty

simplExpr env (SCC cc (Lam binder body)) args result_ty
        -- always ok to move scc inside type/usage lambda
  = simplExpr env (Lam binder (SCC cc body)) args result_ty
\end{code}

3) Eliminating dict sccs ...

\begin{code}
simplExpr env (SCC cc expr) args result_ty
  | squashableDictishCcExpr cc expr
        -- eliminate dict cc if trivial dict expression
  = simplExpr env expr args result_ty
\end{code}

4) Moving arguments inside the body of an scc ...
This moves the cost of doing the application inside the scc
(which may include the cost of extracting methods etc)

\begin{code}
simplExpr env (SCC cost_centre body) args result_ty
  = let
        new_env = setEnclosingCC env cost_centre
    in
    simplExpr new_env body args result_ty               `thenSmpl` \ body' ->
    returnSmpl (SCC cost_centre body')
\end{code}

simplRhsExpr does arity-expansion.  That is, given:

        * a right hand side /\ tyvars -> \a1 ... an -> e
        * the information (stored in BinderInfo) that the function will always
          be applied to at least k arguments

it transforms the rhs to

----------------------------------------------------------------
        An old special case that is now nuked.

First a special case for variable right-hand sides
        v = w
It's OK to simplify the RHS, but it's often a waste of time.  Often
these v = w things persist because v is exported, and w is used 
elsewhere.  So if we're not careful we'll eta expand the rhs, only
to eta reduce it in competeNonRec.

If we leave the binding unchanged, we will certainly replace v by w at 
every occurrence of v, which is good enough.  

In fact, it's *better* to replace v by w than to inline w in v's rhs,
even if this is the only occurrence of w.  Why? Because w might have
IdInfo (such as strictness) that v doesn't.

Furthermore, there might be other uses of w; if so, inlining w in 
v's rhs will duplicate w's rhs, whereas replacing v by w doesn't.

HOWEVER, we have to be careful if w is something that *must* be
inlined.  In particular, its binding may have been dropped.  Here's
an example that actually happened:
        let x = let y = e in y
     in f x
The "let y" was floated out, and then (since y occurs once in a
definitely inlinable position) the binding was dropped, leaving
        {y=e} let x = y in f x
But now using the reasoning of this little section, 
y wasn't inlined, because it was a let x=y form.


                HOWEVER

This "optimisation" turned out to be a bad idea.  If there's are
top-level exported bindings like

        y = I# 3#
        x = y

then y wasn't getting inlined in x's rhs, and we were getting
bad code.  So I've removed the special case from here, and
instead we only try eta reduction and constructor reuse 
in completeNonRec if the thing is *not* exported.


\begin{pseudocode}
simplRhsExpr env binder@(id,occ_info) (Var v) new_id
 | maybeToBool maybe_stop_at_var
 = returnSmpl (Var the_var, getIdArity the_var)
 where
   maybe_stop_at_var 
     = case (runEager $ lookupId env v) of
         VarArg v' | not (must_unfold v') -> Just v'
         other                            -> Nothing

   Just the_var = maybe_stop_at_var

   must_unfold v' =  idMustBeINLINEd v'
                  || case lookupOutIdEnv env v' of
                        Just (_, _, InUnfolding _ _) -> True

Float switches
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The booleans controlling floating have to be set with a little care.
Here's one performance bug I found:

        let x = let y = let z = case a# +# 1 of {b# -> E1}
                        in E2
                in E3
        in E4

Now, if E2, E3 aren't HNFs we won't float the y-binding or the z-binding.
Before case_floating_ok included float_exposes_hnf, the case expression was floated
*one level per simplifier iteration* outwards.  So it made th s


Floating case from let
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When floating cases out of lets, remember this:

        let x* = case e of alts
        in <small expr>

where x* is sure to be demanded or e is a cheap operation that cannot
fail, e.g. unboxed addition.  Here we should be prepared to duplicate
<small expr>.  A good example:

        let x* = case y of
                   p1 -> build e1
                   p2 -> build e2
        in
        foldr c n x*
==>
        case y of
          p1 -> foldr c n (build e1)
          p2 -> foldr c n (build e2)

NEW: We use the same machinery that we use for case-of-case to
*always* do case floating from let, that is we let bind and abstract
the original let body, and let the occurrence analyser later decide
whether the new let should be inlined or not. The example above
becomes:

==>
      let join_body x' = foldr c n x'
        in case y of
        p1 -> let x* = build e1
                in join_body x*
        p2 -> let x* = build e2
                in join_body x*

note that join_body is a let-no-escape.
In this particular example join_body will later be inlined,
achieving the same effect.
ToDo: check this is OK with andy


Let to case: two points
~~~~~~~~~~~

Point 1.  We defer let-to-case for all data types except single-constructor
ones.  Suppose we change

        let x* = e in b
to
        case e of x -> b

It can be the case that we find that b ultimately contains ...(case x of ..)....
and this is the only occurrence of x.  Then if we've done let-to-case
we can't inline x, which is a real pain.  On the other hand, we lose no
transformations by not doing this transformation, because the relevant
case-of-X transformations are also implemented by simpl_bind.

If x is a single-constructor type, then we go ahead anyway, giving

        case e of (y,z) -> let x = (y,z) in b

because now we can squash case-on-x wherever they occur in b.

We do let-to-case on multi-constructor types in the tidy-up phase
(tidyCoreExpr) mainly so that the code generator doesn't need to
spot the demand-flag.


Point 2.  It's important to try let-to-case before doing the
strict-let-of-case transformation, which happens in the next equation
for simpl_bind.

        let a*::Int = case v of {p1->e1; p2->e2}
        in b

(The * means that a is sure to be demanded.)
If we do case-floating first we get this:

        let k = \a* -> b
        in case v of
                p1-> let a*=e1 in k a
                p2-> let a*=e2 in k a

Now watch what happens if we do let-to-case first:

        case (case v of {p1->e1; p2->e2}) of
          Int a# -> let a*=I# a# in b
===>
        let k = \a# -> let a*=I# a# in b
        in case v of
                p1 -> case e1 of I# a# -> k a#
                p1 -> case e2 of I# a# -> k a#

The latter is clearly better.  (Remember the reboxing let-decl for a
is likely to go away, because after all b is strict in a.)

We do not do let to case for WHNFs, e.g.

          let x = a:b in ...
          =/=>
          case a:b of x in ...

as this is less efficient.  but we don't mind doing let-to-case for
"bottom", as that will allow us to remove more dead code, if anything:

          let x = error in ...
          ===>
          case error  of x -> ...
          ===>
          error

Notice that let to case occurs only if x is used strictly in its body
(obviously).

@completeNonRec@ looks at the simplified post-floating RHS of the
let-expression, with a view to turning
        x = e
into
        x = y
where y is just a variable.  Now we can eliminate the binding
altogether, and replace x by y throughout.

There are two cases when we can do this:

        * When e is a constructor application, and we have
          another variable in scope bound to the same
          constructor application.  [This is just a special
          case of common-subexpression elimination.]

        * When e can be eta-reduced to a variable.  E.g.
                x = \a b -> y a b


HOWEVER, if x is exported, we don't attempt this at all.  Why not?
Because then we can't remove the x=y binding, in which case we 
have just made things worse, perhaps a lot worse.

\begin{code}
completeNonRec env binder new_id new_rhs
  = returnSmpl (env', [NonRec b r | (b,r) <- binds])
  where
    (env', binds) = completeBind env binder new_id new_rhs


completeBind :: SimplEnv 
             -> InBinder -> OutId -> OutExpr            -- Id and RHS
             -> (SimplEnv, [(OutId, OutExpr)])          -- Final envt and binding(s)

completeBind env binder@(_,occ_info) new_id new_rhs
  | idMustNotBeINLINEd new_id           -- Occurrence analyser says "don't inline"
  = (env, new_binds)

  |  atomic_rhs                 -- If rhs (after eta reduction) is atomic
  && not (isExported new_id)    -- and binder isn't exported
  =     -- Drop the binding completely
    let
        env1 = notInScope env new_id
        env2 = bindIdToAtom env1 binder the_arg
    in
    (env2, [])

  |  atomic_rhs                 -- Rhs is atomic, and new_id is exported
  && case eta'd_rhs of { Var v -> isLocallyDefined v && not (isExported v); other -> False }
  =     -- The local variable v will be eliminated next time round
        -- in favour of new_id, so it's a waste to replace all new_id's with v's
        -- this time round.
        -- This case is an optional improvement; saves a simplifier iteration
    (env, [(new_id, eta'd_rhs)])

  | otherwise                           -- Non-atomic
  = let
        env1 = extendEnvGivenBinding env occ_info new_id new_rhs

        A digression on constructor CSE

Consider
@
        f = \x -> case x of
                    (y:ys) -> y:ys
                    []     -> ...
@
Is it a good idea to replace the rhs @y:ys@ with @x@?  This depends a
bit on the compiler technology, but in general I believe not. For
example, here's some code from a real program:
@
const.Int.max.wrk{-s2516-} =
    \ upk.s3297#  upk.s3298# ->
        let {
          a.s3299 :: Int
          _N_ {-# U(P) #-}
          a.s3299 = I#! upk.s3297#
        } in
          case (const.Int._tagCmp.wrk{-s2513-} upk.s3297# upk.s3298#) of {
            _LT -> I#! upk.s3298#
            _EQ -> a.s3299
            _GT -> a.s3299
          }
@
The a.s3299 really isn't doing much good.  We'd be better off inlining
it.  (Actually, let-no-escapery means it isn't as bad as it looks.)

So the current strategy is to inline all known-form constructors, and
only do the reverse (turn a constructor application back into a
variable) when we find a let-expression:
@
        let x = C a1 .. an
        in
        ... (let y = C a1 .. an in ...) ...
@
where it is always good to ditch the binding for y, and replace y by
x.
                End of digression

                A digression on "optimising" coercions

   The trouble is that we kept transforming
                let x = coerce e
                    y = coerce x
                in ...
   to
                let x' = coerce e
                    y' = coerce x'
                in ...
   and counting a couple of ticks for this non-transformation
\begin{pseudocode}

        -- atomic bodies, so they can freely be inlined.

Letrec expressions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here's the game plan

1. Float any let(rec)s out of the RHSs
2. Clone all the Ids and extend the envt with these clones
3. Simplify one binding at a time, adding each binding to the
   environment once it's done.

This relies on the occurrence analyser to
        a) break all cycles with an Id marked MustNotBeInlined
        b) sort the decls into topological order
The former prevents infinite inlinings, and the latter means
that we get maximum benefit from working top to bottom.
