* libguile/__scm.h (SCM_ALIGNED): New macro.
* libguile/_scm.h: Include "libguile/strings.h", to make the
string/stringbuf-related constants visible to snarffed code.
* libguile/snarf.h (SCM_SUPPORT_STATIC_ALLOCATION): New macro.
(SCM_SYMBOL, SCM_GLOBAL_SYMBOL)[SCM_SUPPORT_STATIC_ALLOCATION]: New
alternative versions of these macros with support for (almost) static
allocation via the use of `string->symbol'.
(SCM_IMMUTABLE_DOUBLE_CELL, SCM_IMMUTABLE_STRINGBUF,
SCM_IMMUTABLE_STRING): New macros.
* libguile/tags.h (SCM)[SCM_DEBUG_TYPING_STRICTNESS==1]: Use a pointer
type that is compatible with other pointer types, to avoid potential
violation of strict aliasing rules.
* libguile/strings.h (scm_tc7_ro_string, SCM_I_STRINGBUF_F_SHARED,
SCM_I_STRINGBUF_F_INLINE): New macros.
* libguile/strings.c (STRINGBUF_F_SHARED): Alias for
`SCM_I_STRINGBUF_F_SHARED'.
(STRINGBUF_F_INLINE): Alias for `SCM_I_STRINGBUF_F_INLINE'.
(RO_STRING_TAG): Alias for `scm_tc7_ro_string'.
* libguile/vm.h (struct scm_vm_cont):
* libguile/vm.c (capture_vm_cont, reinstate_vm_cont): Change so we just
store the registers as they are, with the reloc.
(vm_cont_mark): Only mark the stack if it has elements on it, otherwise
we get a bogus fp.
* libguile/stacks.c (scm_make_stack): Update for change to vm
continuations.
* gc-benchmarks/gc-profile.scm (*iteration-count*): New parameter.
(run-benchmark): Moved from `twobit-compat.scm'. Honor
`*iteration-count*'.
(%options): Add `--iterations'.
(show-help): Document it.
(main): Parameterize `*iteration-count*'.
* gc-benchmarks/gc-profile.scm: Load "twobit-compat.scm".
(save-directory-excursion, load-larceny-benchmark): New procedures.
(%options): New variable.
(show-help, parse-args): New procedures.
(main): Use `parse-args' and `load-larceny-benchmark'.
Because of how Guile saves and restores continuations (by copying the
stack), and how it uses alloca to create space for debug information
on the stack, we must have an alloca() that really does use the stack,
and not one that uses the heap.
To do this, we use the Gnulib "alloca-opt" module instead of "alloca".
This commit also updates the Gnulib sources from the current Gnulib
Git repository.
* benchmark/measure.scm (measure): Fix bitrot.
* libguile/vm.c (VM_ENABLE_STACK_NULLING): Undefine this, as it hasn't
caught any errors in quite a while.
* module/language/ghil.scm (parse-ghil, unparse-ghil): Rework to make the
parse format correspond more closely with the object representation, so
that I only have to document it once in the manual. The salient change
is that no expression is self-quoting, and that variable references
should go through `(ref FOO)'. Rename `set!' to `set'.
* module/language/ghil/compile-glil.scm: Add a couple of compilers for
unquote and unquote-splicing, that just raise an error. This way I can
document unquote and unquote-splicing as normal ghil expressions,
except that it's the compiler that catches them if they're outside a
quasiquote.
(codegen): Adapt to change in <glil-asm>.
* module/language/ghil/spec.scm (parse): Fix parser typo bug.
* module/language/glil.scm (<glil-asm>): Remove useless <glil-vars>
structure, which also had a confusing name. Just put the nargs, nrest,
nlocs, and nexts in the <glil-asm> directly.
(parse-glil, unparse-glil): Serialize `asm' more straightforwardly.
* module/language/glil/compile-objcode.scm (<bytespec>): Remove
<glil-vars>, as with <glil-asm>.
(preprocess, make-meta, codegen, dump-object!): Adapt to change in
<glil-asm>.
* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi: Fix some typos and xrefs.
* doc/ref/compiler.texi (The Scheme Compiler): Document the scheme
compiler, and start documenting the GHIL language.
* doc/ref/guile.texi (Guile Implementation): Whoops, put autoconf after
the implementation foo. Unless we want it before?
* doc/ref/history.texi (The Emacs Thesis): Fix typo.
* doc/ref/vm.texi (Environment Control Instructions): Rename offset to
index.
* module/language/ghil.scm (parse-ghil): Fix what I think was a bug --
the consumer in a mv-call shouldn't be a rest arg.
* module/language/scheme/Makefile.am (SOURCES):
* module/language/scheme/compile-ghil.scm: Rename this file from
translate.scm.
* module/oop/goops.scm:
* module/language/scheme/spec.scm: Deal with renaming.
* doc/ref/api-debug.texi:
* doc/ref/vm.texi: Fix some cross-references.
* doc/ref/compiler.texi: Hack some more, finishing the section on the
compiler tower.
* doc/ref/api-procedures.texi (Compiled Procedures): Stub out these docs
some more, taking some commented-out docs from vm.texi.
* doc/ref/vm.texi: Move docs ^.
* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi: Add documentation for the standard
compilation interface, and some notes about compiled files.
* doc/ref/api-procedures.texi (Compiled Procedures): A stub at
documenting compiled procedures.
* doc/ref/compiler.texi (Compiling to the Virtual Machine): Flesh out
with some structure, though much of the text remains to be written.
This stuff is hard to write!
* libguile/vm-engine.h (PUSH_LIST): Add a parameter to check that the
list was proper.
* libguile/vm-i-system.c: Adapt PUSH_LIST callsites to pass SCM_NULLP or
SCM_NULL_OR_NIL_P, as appropriate. Add a check to return/values*.
* libguile/vm.c: Add lang.h header for SCM_NULL_OR_NIL_P.
* test-suite/tests/elisp.test: Fix XFAIL for elisp + apply.
* autogen.sh: Don't call guile-readline/autogen.sh; not needed because
autoreconf recurses itself. Remove copies of config.guess and
config.sub, which are now invalid because we don't have those files
in the top level directory. Remove mention of
--enable-maintainer-mode, as we don't use AM_MAINTAINER_MODE any
more.
* doc/ref/vm.texi (Stack Layout): Update to remove references to the
"heap link".
* gdbinit: Update for "heap link" removal.
* libguile/frames.c:
* libguile/frames.h: Update macros and diagram for removal of "heap
link". As part of this, we also remove "heap frames", replacing them
with "vm frames", which are much like the interpreter's debug objects,
but for VM stacks. That is to say, they don't actually hold the stack
themselves, just the pointers into stack that's held by a continuation
(either captured or current).
* libguile/stacks.c (stack_depth, read_frames): Since a "stack" object is
really a copy of information that comes from somewhere else, it makes
sense to copy over info from the VM, just as `make-stack' does from the
evaluator. The tricky bit is to figure out how to interleave VM and
interpreter frames. We do that by starting in the interpreter, and
whenever the current frame's procedure is actually a program, we switch
to the VM stack, switching back when we reach a "bootstrap frame". The
last bit is hacky, but it does work...
(is_vm_bootstrap_frame): Hacky predicate to see if a VM frame is a
bootstrap frame.
(scm_make_stack): Accept a VM frame in addition to debug frames.
Probably has some bugs in this case. But in the case that the arg is
#t (a common case), do the right thing, capturing the top VM frame as
well, and interleaving those frames appropriately on the stack.
As an accident, we lost the ability to limit the number of frames in
the backtrace. We could add that back, but personally I always want
*all* frames in the trace... Narrowing still works fine, though there
are some hiccups sometimes -- e.g. an outer cut to a procedure that
does a tail-call in VM code will never find the cut, as it no longer
exists in the continuation.
* libguile/vm.h (struct scm_vm): So! Now that we have switched to save
stacks in the normal make-stack, there's no more need for `this_frame'
or `last_frame'. On the other hand, we can take this opportunity to fix
tracing: when we're in a trace hook, we set `trace_frame' on the VM,
so we know not to fire hooks when we're already in a hook.
(struct scm_vm_cont): Expose this, as make-stack needs it to make VM
frames from VM continuations.
* libguile/vm.c (scm_vm_trace_frame): New function, gets the current
trace frame.
(vm_mark, make_vm): Hook up the trace frame.
(vm_dispatch_hook): New hook dispatcher, with a dynwind so it does the
right thing if the hook exits nonlocally.
* libguile/vm-engine.c (vm_run): No more this_frame in the wind data.
* libguile/vm-engine.h (RUN_HOOK): Run hooks through the dispatcher.
(ALIGN_AS_NON_IMMEDIATE, POP_LIST_ON_STACK): Remove unused code.
(NEW_FRAME): Adapt for no HL in the frame.
* libguile/vm-i-system.c (goto/args, mv-call, return, return/values):
Adapt for no HL in the frame.
* module/system/vm/frame.scm:
* module/system/vm/vm.scm: Beginnings of some reworkings, needs more
thought.
* module/ice-9/boot-9.scm (default-pre-unwind-handler): Rename from
default-lazy-handler.
(pre-unwind-handler-dispatch): Rename from lazy-hadler-dispatch.
(error-catching-loop): Adjust caller.
* module/system/repl/repl.scm (default-pre-unwind-handler): Remove this
definition, in favor of the default one in boot-9.
(default-catch-handler): Don't do a vm-backtrace, as we will soon be
relying on core machinery to do that for us.
(call-with-backtrace): Start a new stack for the thunk.
(with-backtrace): Macro version of call-with-backtrace.
(start-repl): Use with-backtrace for brevity. Start a stack with #t as
the tag instead of repl-eval, because all traces of repl-eval are gone
after it does a tail-call.
* module/ice-9/debugger.scm:
* module/ice-9/debugging/traps.scm:
* module/ice-9/stack-catch.scm: Adapt to s/lazy/pre-unwind/ in
boot-9.scm.
* libguile/backtrace.c (display_backtrace_get_file_line): If the source
is a vector, treat it as a #(line column file) vector, as emitted by
the VM. Needs subsequent patches to make sense.
