~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
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
+
+ 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 uop
+
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.
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
+'solveInteract' step first.
+
+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.
