* libguile/tags.h (SCM_HEAP_OBJECT_BASE): New macro. Given a SCM,
returns a pointer to the start of its memory area on the heap.
* libguile/bytevectors.c:
* libguile/fluids.c:
* libguile/foreign.c:
* libguile/gc.h:
* libguile/guardians.c:
* libguile/numbers.h:
* libguile/ports.c:
* libguile/smob.c:
* libguile/struct.c:
* libguile/weak-set.c:
* libguile/weak-table.c:
* libguile/weak-vector.c: Use it.
* libguile/tags.h (SCM_UNPACK_POINTER, SCM_PACK_POINTER): New macros.
The old SCM2PTR and PTR2SCM were defined in such a way that
round-tripping through a pointer could lose precision, even in the
case in which you weren't interested in actually dereferencing the
pointer, it was simply that you needed to plumb a SCM through APIs
that take pointers. These new macros are more like SCM_PACK and
SCM_UNPACK, but for pointer types. The bit representation of the
pointer should be the same as the scm_t_bits representation.
* libguile/gc.h (PTR2SCM, SCM2PTR): Remove support for (old) UNICOS
pointers. We are going to try tagging the SCM object itself in the
future, and I don't think that keeping this support is worth its
cost. It probably doesn't work anyway.
* libguile/backtrace.c:
* libguile/bytevectors.c:
* libguile/continuations.c:
* libguile/fluids.c:
* libguile/foreign.c:
* libguile/gc.h:
* libguile/guardians.c:
* libguile/hashtab.c:
* libguile/load.c:
* libguile/numbers.c:
* libguile/ports.c:
* libguile/smob.c:
* libguile/strings.c:
* libguile/symbols.c:
* libguile/vm.c:
* libguile/weak-set.c:
* libguile/weak-table.c:
* libguile/weak-vector.c: Update many sites to use the new macros.
* libguile/weak-vector.c:
* libguile/weak-vector.h: Renamed from weaks.[ch]. Remove weak pairs.
They were not safe to access with `car' and `cdr'. Remove weak alist
vectors, as we have weak tables and sets. Reimplement weak vectors,
moving the implementation here.
* libguile/vectors.c:
* libguile/vectors.h: Remove the extra header word. Use
scm_c_weak_vector_ref / scm_c_weak_vector_set_x to access weak
vectors.
* libguile/snarf.h: Remove the extra header word in vectors.
* libguile/threads.c (do_thread_exit, fat_mutex_lock, fat_mutex_unlock):
Instead of weak pairs, store thread-owned mutexes in a list of
one-element weak vectors.
* libguile/guardians.c (finalize_guarded): Similarly, store object
guardians in a list of one-element weak vectors.
* libguile/modules.c (scm_module_reverse_lookup): We no longer need to
handle the case of weak references.
* libguile/print.c (iprin1): Use the standard vector accessor to print
vectors.
* libguile.h:
* libguile/Makefile.am:
* libguile/gc-malloc.c:
* libguile/gc.c:
* libguile/goops.c:
* libguile/init.c:
* libguile/objprop.c:
* libguile/struct.c: Update includes.
* module/ice-9/weak-vector.scm: Load weak vector definitions using an
extension instead of %init-weaks-builtins.
* test-suite/tests/weaks.test: Use the make-...-hash-table names instead
of the old alist vector names.
