* libguile/read.c (scm_read_string): Use `scm_i_make_read_only_string ()' to
return a read-only string, as mandated by R5RS. Reported by Bill
Schottstaedt <bil@ccrma.Stanford.EDU>.
* libguile/strings.c (scm_i_make_read_only_string): New function.
(scm_i_shared_substring_read_only): Special-case the empty string
so that the read-only and read-write empty strings are `eq?'. This
optimization is relied on by the `substring/shared' `empty string'
test case in `srfi-13.test'.
* libguile/strings.h (scm_i_make_read_only_string): New declaration.
* test-suite/tests/strings.test ("string-set!")["literal string"]: New test.
* NEWS: Update.
* libguile/strings.c (scm_i_symbol_substring): Return a read-only string
since R5RS requires `symbol->string' to return a read-only string.
Reported by Bill Schottstaedt <bil@ccrma.Stanford.EDU>.
* test-suite/tests/symbols.test: Add `define-module' clause.
(exception:immutable-string): Adjust to current exception.
("symbol->string")["result is an immutable string"]: Use
`pass-if-exception' instead of `expect-fail-exception'.
* NEWS: Update.
(reported by Bill Schottstaedt)
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_gcd): When only one arg given, use scm_abs
to ensure that result is non-negative.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test ("gcd"): New test, (gcd -2).
Idea and original patch were by Ludovic Courts, this is Neil Jerram's
reworking of it.
* libguile/srfi-4.c (scm_uniform_vector_read_x): Use scm_c_read,
instead of equivalent code here.
* libguile/ports.c (scm_fill_input): Add assertion that read
buffer is empty when called.
(port_and_swap_buffer, swap_buffer): New, for...
(scm_c_read): Use caller's buffer for reading, to avoid making N
1-byte low-level read calls, in the case where the port is
unbuffered (or has a very small buffer).
* libguile/__scm.h (SCM_DEBUG): add SCM_DEBUG_MARKING_API
* libguile/gc.h (SCM_SET_GC_MARK): depending on
SCM_DEBUG_MARKING_API crash if someone is touching markbits
outside regular hours.
Rename ensure_marking() to scm_i_ensure_marking().
* libguile/inline.h (scm_double_cell, scm_cell): only set mark bits
for debugging if SCM_DEBUG_MARKING_API is unset
* libguile/gc-mark.c: Issue deprecation warning if we are marking
outside of the GC mark phase.
* libguile/gc-card.c: Include <config.h> and <count-one-bits.h>.
(scm_i_uint_bit_count): Remove.
(scm_i_card_marked_count): Use `count_one_bits_l ()' instead
of `scm_i_uint_bit_count ()'.
* libguile/gc-segment.c: Include <config.h> and <count-one-bits.h>.
(scm_i_heap_segment_marked_count): Use `count_one_bits_l ()' instead
of `scm_i_uint_bit_count ()'.
* libguile/private-gc.h (scm_i_uint_bit_count): Remove.
* libguile/i18n.c (str_upcase, str_downcase, scm_char_locale_downcase,
scm_char_locale_upcase): Cast chars to `int' when invoking `toupper ()'
et al. to avoid "array subscript has type 'char'" on NetBSD.
Reported by Greg Toxel <gdt@ir.bbn.com>.
* New file gc-segment-table.c: hold code for the segment table.
* Remove data that might be out of date; remove
scm_i_adjust_min_yield(). We don't store min_yields, since they
are only accurate at one point in time (when the sweep finishes).
We decide the min yield at that point from min_yield_fraction and
freelist->collected / freelist->swept
* Introduce scm_i_gc_heap_size_delta() replacing
scm_i_gc_grow_heap_p().
* Remove foo_1 fields containing penultimate results.
* After GC, count mark bit vector to discover number of live
objects. This simplifies hairy updates.
* Many formatting and layout cleanups.
* Fix in scm_i_sweep_card(): return the length of free_list returned,
rather than number of deleted objects.
* For mtrigger GCs: do not also run a full sweep after the gc() call, as
this is inconsistent with lazy sweeping.
* Remove scm_i_make_initial_segment().
* Use calloc in scm_i_make_empty_heap_segment() to save on
initialization code.
* New function scm_i_sweep_for_freelist() which sweeps, with proper
statistic variable updates.
* New segments are conceptually blocks with 100% reclaimable cells.
* Remove some useless constants/comments: SCM_HEAP_SIZE,
SCM_INIT_HEAP_SIZE, SCM_EXPHEAP, SCM_HEAP_SEG_SIZE
* Do not increment scm_cells_allocated() from the
scm_[double]cell(). This would be a race condition.
* Move some deprecation checks in separate functions to not distract
from main code flow.
