GHC.Types.Id

For an explanation of global vs. local Ids, see GHC.Types.Var.Var#globalvslocal

Make a global Id without any extra information at all

Make a global Id with no global information but some generic IdInfo

For an explanation of global vs. local Ids, see GHC.Types.Var#globalvslocal

Make a local CoVar

Like mkLocalId, but checks the type to see if it should make a covar

Create a local Id that is marked as exported. This prevents things attached to it from being removed as dead code. See Note [Exported LocalIds]

Create a system local Id. These are local Ids (see Var#globalvslocal) that are created by the compiler out of thin air

Like mkSysLocal, but checks to see if we have a covar type

Create a user local Id. These are local Ids (see GHC.Types.Var#globalvslocal) with a name and location that the user might recognize

Like mkUserLocal, but checks if we have a coercion type

Create a template local for a series of types

Create a template local for a series of type, but start from a specified template local

Create a template local: a family of system local Ids in bijection with Ints, typically used in unfoldings

Workers get local names. CoreTidy will externalise these if necessary

If the Id is that for a record selector, extract the sel_tycon. Panic otherwise.

Not only does this set the Id Type, it also evaluates the type to try and reduce space usage

If it's a local, make it global

Like scaleIdBy, but skips non-Ids. Useful for scaling a mixed list of ids and tyvars.

isImplicitId tells whether an Ids info is implied by other declarations, so we don't need to put its signature in an interface file, even if it's mentioned in some other interface unfolding.

isStrictId says whether either (a) the Id has a strict demand placed on it or (b) definitely has a "strict type", such that it can always be evaluated strictly (i.e an unlifted type) We need to check (b) as well as (a), because when the demand for the given id hasn't been computed yet but id has a strict type, we still want `isStrictId id` to be True. Returns False if the type is levity polymorphic; False is always safe.

isExportedIdVar means "don't throw this away"

Get from either the worker or the wrapper Id to the DataCon. Currently used only in the desugarer.

INVARIANT: idDataCon (dataConWrapId d) = d: remember, dataConWrapId can return either the wrapper or the worker

An Id for which we might require all callers to pass strict arguments properly tagged + evaluated.

See Note [CBV Function Ids]

Returns true if an application to n args diverges or throws an exception See Note [Dead ends] in GHC.Types.Demand.

Returns True of an Id which may not have a binding, even though it is defined in this module.

Doesn't return strictness marks

This function counts all arguments post-unarisation, which includes arguments with no runtime representation -- see Note [Unarisation and arity]

Returns the Ids unfolding, but does not expose the unfolding of a strong loop breaker. See unfoldingInfo.

If you really want the unfolding of a strong loopbreaker, call realIdUnfolding.

Expose the unfolding if there is one, including for loop breakers

Returns an unfolding only if (a) not a strong loop breaker and (b) always active

Returns an unfolding only if (a) not a strong loop breaker and (b) active in according to is_active

Similar to trimUnfolding, but also removes evaldness info.

If all marks are NotMarkedStrict we just set nothing.

Turn this id into a WorkerLikeId if possible.

Remove any cbv marks on arguments from a given Id.

Accesses the Id's dmdSigInfo.
