{- **********************************************************************
The Loader's state
********************************************************************* -}
{-
The loader state *must* match the actual state of the C dynamic linker at all
times.
The MVar used to hold the LoaderState contains a Maybe LoaderState. The MVar
serves to ensure mutual exclusion between multiple loaded copies of the GHC
library. The Maybe may be Nothing to indicate that the linker has not yet been
initialised.
The LinkerEnv maps Names to actual closures (for interpreted code only), for
use during linking.
Note [Looking up symbols in the relevant objects]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In #23415, we determined that a lot of time (>10s, or even up to >35s!) was
being spent on dynamically loading symbols before actually interpreting code
when `:main` was run in GHCi. The root cause was that for each symbol we wanted
to lookup, we would traverse the list of loaded objects and try find the symbol
in each of them with dlsym (i.e. looking up a symbol was, worst case, linear in
the amount of loaded objects).
To drastically improve load time (from +-38 seconds down to +-2s), we now:
1. For every of the native objects loaded for a given unit, store the handles returned by `dlopen`.
- In `pkgs_loaded` of the `LoaderState`, which maps `UnitId`s to
`LoadedPkgInfo`s, where the handles live in its field `loaded_pkg_hs_dlls`.
2. When looking up a Name (e.g. `lookupHsSymbol`), find that name's `UnitId` in
the `pkgs_loaded` mapping,
3. And only look for the symbol (with `dlsym`) on the /handles relevant to that
unit/, rather than in every loaded object.
Note [Symbols may not be found in pkgs_loaded]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Currently the `pkgs_loaded` mapping only contains the dynamic objects
associated with loaded units. Symbols defined in a static object (e.g. from a
statically-linked Haskell library) are found via the generic `lookupSymbol`
function call by `lookupHsSymbol` when the symbol is not found in any of the
dynamic objects of `pkgs_loaded`.
The rationale here is two-fold:
* we have only observed major link-time issues in dynamic linking; lookups in
the RTS linker's static symbol table seem to be fast enough
* allowing symbol lookups restricted to a single ObjectCode would require the
maintenance of a symbol table per `ObjectCode`, which would introduce time and
space overhead
This fallback is further needed because we don't look in the haskell objects
loaded for the home units (see the call to `loadModuleLinkables` in
`loadDependencies`, as opposed to the call to `loadPackages'` in the same
function which updates `pkgs_loaded`). We should ultimately keep track of the
objects loaded (probably in `objs_loaded`, for which `LinkableSet` is a bit
unsatisfactory, see a suggestion in 51c5c4eb1f2a33e4dc88e6a37b7b7c135234ce9b)
and be able to lookup symbols specifically in them too (similarly to
`lookupSymbolInDLL`).
