* scm_validate.h: Added SCM_VALIDATE_THREAD.
* *.c: Remove SCM_NIMP(X) when it is an extraneous pre-test given
that SCM_FOOP macros all now include SCM_NIMP in their expansion.
This simplifies lots of code, making it far more readable.
function headers and argument checking. Switched SCM_PROC,
SCM_PROC1 macros to be GUILE_PROC, GUILE_PROC1 (may change names
later, but was useful to keep old versions around while migrate)
that has docstrings and argument lists embedded in the GUILE_PROC
macro invocations that expand into a function header. Use lots of
new SCM_VALIDATE_* macros to simplify error checking and reduce
tons of redundancy. This is very similar to what I did for Scwm.
Note that none of the extraction of the docstrings, nor software
engineering checks of Scwm is yet added to Guile. I'll work on
that tomorrow, I expect.
* Makefile.am: Added scm_validate.h to modinclude_HEADERS.
* chars.c: Added docstrings for the primitives defined in here.
* snarf.h: Added GUILE_PROC, GUILE_PROC1. Added
SCM_REGISTER_PROC to be like old SCM_PROC, though old SCM_PROC
still remains for now. Changed naming convention for the s_foo
string name of the primitive to be s_scm_foo for ease of use with
the macro.
* scm_validate.h: Lots of new SCM_VALIDATE macros to simplify
argument checking through guile. Maybe some of these should be
folded into the header file for the types they check, but for now
it was easiest to just stick them all in one place.
marking code, and make marker routines only responsible for
turning up outgoing pointers.
* gc.c (scm_gc_mark): Set the mark bit on ports and smobs here,
before calling the marking function. Don't call the marking
function if it's zero.
* markers.c (scm_mark0): Just return #f. This function isn't
necessary at all now, but it's harmless to call it. We'll leave
it in so other folks' code doesn't croak at link time.
(scm_markcdr): Don't call SCM_SETGC8MARK.
* async.c (mark_async): Don't call SCM_SETGC8MARK.
* dynl.c (mark_dynl_obj): Same.
* root.c (mark_root): Same.
* srcprop.c (marksrcprops): Same.
* unif.c (markra): Same.
* variable.c (scm_markvar): Same.
* ports.c (scm_markstream): Same.
(void_port_ptob): Specify zero for our marking function.
* debug.c (debugobjsmob): Same.
* dynwind.c (guardsmob): Same.
* filesys.c (dir_smob): Same.
* fluids.c (fluid_smob): Same.
* fports.c (scm_fptob, scm_pipob): Same.
* mallocs.c (mallocsmob): Same.
* regex-posix.c (regex_t_smob): Same.
* smob.c (freecell, flob, bigob): Same.
* threads.c (thread_smob, mutex_smob, condvar_smob): Same.
* throw.c (jbsmob, lazy_catch_funs): Same.
* _scm.h: if HAVE_RESTARTS is defined then don't use a SYSCALL
loop.
* posix.c (scm_uname): interpret only negative values as an error.
Solaris normally returns a positive value.
* script.c (scm_compile_shell_switches): if we are not going into
an interactive repl, set scm_mask_ints to zero so that asyncs can
run.
* simpos.c (scm_system): don't ignore/unignore signals around
the "system" call.
* posix.c (scm_open_pipe): don't ignore/unignore signals around
the "popen" call.
* init.c (scm_boot_guile_1): don't call scm_init_signals, it's
done in boot-9.scm instead.
* scmsigs.c, async.c: Major rewriting of signal handling code.
(scm_sigaction): new procedure.
(scm_sleep): don't wrap sleep in SCM_SYSCALL, it would mess up the
timing.
(scm_raise): return unspecified, throw error on failure.
* boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
during call to scm-style-repl.
* acconfig.h: mention HAVE_RESTARTS.
* configure.in: check for sigaction and restartable system calls.
sure how this was supposed to work.
(scm_async_click): don't send SCM_TICK_SIGNAL.
(scm_init_async): don't initialize %tick-thunk.
* the following change doesn't affect the Scheme interface:
gc-thunk is called at the end of garbage collection. however it's
no longer implemented by pretending it's a signal.
* gc.c (scm_gc_end): don't call scm_take_signal. instead mark the
system async corresponding to scm_gc_thunk.
* async.h: declare scm_gc_async.
* async.c (scm_sys_gc_async_thunk): apply the thunk named by
gc-thunk directly, instead of going through a signal handler.
(scm_gc_async): new variable, points to the GC system-async.
(scm_init_async): save the GC async as scm_gc_async instead
of using system_signal_asyncs.
(scm_gc_vcell): new variable, stores the gc-thunk vcell.
