Fix #4829 (build does not respect --with-gcc option)

This patch fixes what seems to be the last problem with the --with-gcc
option.  On OS X, we need to pass the path to gcc to dtrace as the
preprocessor.  (Internally, dtrace on OS X sets the default preprocessor
to /usr/bin/gcc.)  ATM, dtrace is only supported on OS X, so we don't
need any conditionalization.  If dtrace is ported to other platforms,
we might need to change this. However, usage on other platforms will
probably be similar to OS X, since many of Apple's changes are to
use the gnu toolchain instead of the Sun toolchain.

Tidy up rebindable syntax for MDo

For a long time an 'mdo' expression has had a SyntaxTable
attached to it.  However, we're busy deprecating SyntaxTables
in favour of rebindable syntax attached to individual Stmts,
and MDoExpr was totally inconsistent with DoExpr in this
regard.

This patch tidies it all up.  Now there's no SyntaxTable on
MDoExpr, and 'modo' is generally handled much more like 'do'.

There is resulting small change in behaviour: now MonadFix is
required only if you actually *use* recursion in mdo. This
seems consistent with the implicit dependency analysis that

Add a simple arity analyser

I've wanted to do this for ages, but never gotten around to
it.  The main notes are in Note [Arity analysis] in SimplUtils.

The motivating example for arity analysis is this:

  f = \x. let g = f (x+1)
          in \y. ...g...

What arity does f have?  Really it should have arity 2, but a naive
look at the RHS won't see that.  You need a fixpoint analysis which
says it has arity "infinity" the first time round.

This makes things more robust to the way in which you write code.  For
example, see Trac #4474 which is fixed by this change.

Not a huge difference, but worth while:

        Program           Size    Allocs   Runtime   Elapsed
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Min          -0.4%     -2.2%    -10.0%    -10.0%
            Max          +2.7%     +0.3%     +7.1%     +6.9%
 Geometric Mean          -0.3%     -0.2%     -2.1%     -2.2%

I don't really believe the runtime numbers, because the machine was
busy, but the bottom line is that not much changes, and what does
change reliably (allocation and size) is in the right direction.

boundTaskExiting: don't set task->stopped unless this is the last call (#4850)
The bug in this case was that we had a worker thread making a foreign
call which invoked a callback (in this case it was performGC, I
think).  When the callback ended, boundTaskExiting() was setting
task->stopped, but the Task is now per-OS-thread, so it is shared by
the worker that made the original foreign call.  When the foreign call
returned, because task->stopped was set, the worker was not placed on
the queue of spare workers.  Somehow the worker woke up again, and
found the spare_workers queue empty, which lead to a crash.

Two bugs here: task->stopped should not have been set by
boundTaskExiting (this broke when I split the Task and InCall structs,
in 6.12.2), and releaseCapabilityAndQueueWorker() should not be

Simon Marlow [Wed, 15 Dec 2010 12:08:43 +0000 (12:08 +0000)]
Implement stack chunks and separate TSO/STACK objects

This patch makes two changes to the way stacks are managed:

1. The stack is now stored in a separate object from the TSO.

This means that it is easier to replace the stack object for a thread
when the stack overflows or underflows; we don't have to leave behind
the old TSO as an indirection any more.  Consequently, we can remove
ThreadRelocated and deRefTSO(), which were a pain.

This is obviously the right thing, but the last time I tried to do it
it made performance worse.  This time I seem to have cracked it.

2. Stacks are now represented as a chain of chunks, rather than
   a single monolithic object.

The big advantage here is that individual chunks are marked clean or
dirty according to whether they contain pointers to the young
generation, and the GC can avoid traversing clean stack chunks during
a young-generation collection.  This means that programs with deep
stacks will see a big saving in GC overhead when using the default GC
settings.

A secondary advantage is that there is much less copying involved as
the stack grows.  Programs that quickly grow a deep stack will see big
improvements.

In some ways the implementation is simpler, as nothing special needs
to be done to reclaim stack as the stack shrinks (the GC just recovers
the dead stack chunks).  On the other hand, we have to manage stack
underflow between chunks, so there's a new stack frame
(UNDERFLOW_FRAME), and we now have separate TSO and STACK objects.
The total amount of code is probably about the same as before.

There are new RTS flags:

   -ki<size> Sets the initial thread stack size (default 1k)  Egs: -ki4k -ki2m
   -kc<size> Sets the stack chunk size (default 32k)
   -kb<size> Sets the stack chunk buffer size (default 1k)

-ki was previously called just -k, and the old name is still accepted
for backwards compatibility.  These new options are documented.

Fix recursive superclasses (again).  Fixes Trac #4809.

This patch finally deals with the super-delicate question of
superclases in possibly-recursive dictionaries.  The key idea
is the DFun Superclass Invariant (see TcInstDcls):

     In the body of a DFun, every superclass argument to the
     returned dictionary is
       either   * one of the arguments of the DFun,
       or       * constant, bound at top level

To establish the invariant, we add new "silent" superclass
argument(s) to each dfun, so that the dfun does not do superclass
selection internally.  There's a bit of hoo-ha to make sure that
we don't print those silent arguments in error messages; a knock
on effect was a change in interface-file format.

A second change is that instead of the complex and fragile
"self dictionary binding" in TcInstDcls and TcClassDcl,
using the same mechanism for existential pattern bindings.
See Note [Subtle interaction of recursion and overlap] in TcInstDcls
and Note [Binding when looking up instances] in InstEnv.

Main notes are here:

  * Note [Silent Superclass Arguments] in TcInstDcls,
    including the DFun Superclass Invariant

Main code changes are:

  * The code for MkId.mkDictFunId and mkDictFunTy

  * DFunUnfoldings get a little more complicated;
    their arguments are a new type DFunArg (in CoreSyn)

  * No "self" argument in tcInstanceMethod
  * No special tcSimplifySuperClasss
  * No "dependents" argument to EvDFunApp

IMPORTANT
   It turns out that it's quite tricky to generate the right
   DFunUnfolding for a specialised dfun, when you use SPECIALISE
   INSTANCE.  For now I've just commented it out (in DsBinds) but
   that'll lose some optimisation, and I need to get back to
   this.
