Errors with Natural
I was using to the plug-in, and part of my program involved an (==) expression on this type. The plug-in threw the following exception:
ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)

- The Categorifier plugin was unable to inline naturalEq#
My understanding from the discord thread is that the expression had been optimized to the underlying Natural type by the time it hit the plug-in, and there is apparently no support for Natural.
I guess I either need (1) to add support for Natural to the plugin or (2) better understand what classes need to be implemented in order to compile the Prime p type. It is also a supported object in my target category.
You can find the offending program here: https://github.com/martyall/straw/blob/snarkl-json-update/examples/Examples/Arithmetic.hs#L50-L64
@martyall Can you try this with the branch from #102? I’m having trouble getting your fork of straw to build. You’ll need to add the extra flags, etc. mentioned in the commend on that PR.
So I think I'm including everything, but I'm still getting the same error. I see that you have added support for naturalEq in that branch, so I don't really understand.
here is the diff and commit you can try to build from: https://github.com/torsion-labs/straw/commit/2894049def14cd05037d8a825742e32a2eb14fed
(NOTE: the github org on that url is no longer martyall, we moved everything over. however, curious why the build failed for you. If you are using the flake shell (nix develop) and building with cabal, it would hopefully work...)
I’m not too surprised. If you look at the error, you see naturalEq#, not naturalEq. The former has the type Natural# -> Natural# -> Bool – those # means the type is “unlifted” and they actually have a different kind than Type.
For a few reasons (which I’m happy to get into) the plugin doesn’t support unlifted types (I need to document that). But most operations on unlifted types have a lifted equivalent. And it’s a matter of catching the operation before it’s been inlined far enough to get down to unlifted types.
That PR has the initial work for Natural support, but I basically crossed my fingers that it’d work without any additional changes to manage the inlining.
Re: building Straw, I don’t know why I didn’t try that. I had only tried nix build …. But I’ll go back to it now, and probably I can replicate the issue.

Also in case it helps you can use this binary cache which has all the stuff martyall.cachix.org-1:CrJFPxvYeNEFevcbWAD/Hj1NYu9mtGbLh6Bojvc9TBE=
The plugin needs to have the ability to output something similar to a stack trace, which will make it a lot easier to figure out where naturalEq# is introduced. Showing just the last CoreExpr is rarely helpful.
Sorry, this was not fixed by #102 (as discussed above). I just forgot to fix the description of that PR before merging.
@sellout Just wanted to check in on this one. After thinking about it a little bit, I could also change the underlying representation of Prime to be Integer instead of Mod, which AFAIK the plugin supports. This would require some amount of work on my fork, but maybe it's easier than making this change for the plugin ?
I don’t think Integer will be any better. Both it and Natural changed the same way with GHC 9.0. GHC 8.10 shouldn’t have this issue, if your code would work with that for the time being. However, I really want to fix this in the plugin.
I did manage to replicate the issue locally, and I think I know what needs to change. I can try to make those changes today. In parallel, I also want to write more documentation on how to debug this and how to extend the plugin properly (took long enough to get it back in my head that there clearly needs to be more explanation if anyone else is going to have a chance).
I didn't try it with raw Integer, but I did just swap out the implementation of galois-fields to use this instead

FWIW I am using GHC 9.0.2
Thanks for tracking this down, I look forward to whatever solution ends up working. I am also eager to learn more, so it's interesting to me to see these changes coming in :)
I don’t think Integer will be any better. Both it and Natural changed the same way with GHC 9.0. GHC 8.10 shouldn’t have this issue, if your code would work with that for the time being. However, I really want to fix this in the plugin.
Are you saying that this should JustWork™ (with the Natural based galois-fields implementation) if I switch to 8.10 ?
Are you saying that this should JustWork™ (with the
Naturalbasedgalois-fieldsimplementation) if I switch to 8.10 ?
Well, I think at least this particular problem should go away. I.e., == should work the way + and * do in the simpleArith example.

What you're saying tracks with my experience. I ripped out all of this type witness nonsense from the Integer based implementation in modular-arithmetic and got a similar error as before:

There is no unfolding available for the identifier. It's possible that the
identifier is an unspecialized type class method (methods never have
unfoldings), a name used for `RebindableSyntax`, or that the unfolding
somehow didn't get from the definition point to the module that called
`categorify`.
