account, but keeping more or less the same values as previously.
added some simple helper macros.
(CLUSTER_SIZE_IN_BYTES, ALIGNMENT_SLACK): defined to take cards
into account.
(BVEC_*, scm_mark_space_t, current_mark_space, mark_space_ptr,
current_mark_space_offset, mark_space_head, get_bvec,
clear_mark_space): new functions and supporting variables, types
and macros that implement mark space management.
(scm_igc): clear the mark space (all of it) before beginning the
mark phase.
(scm_gc_mark): changed the tests for rogue cells, much simplified
throughout (no different mark bit locations to worry about now).
(scm_mark_locations): don't consider card header cells.
(scm_cellp): ditto.
(scm_gc_sweep): simplified.
(init_heap_seg): changed to take cards into account.
scm_get_internal_run_time but returns a long. it's used by the GC
for timekeeping, since with scm_get_internal_run_time there is a
(extremely theoretical) possibility of consing.
(scm_get_internal_run_time): redefined in terms of
scm_c_get_internal_run_time.
* stime.h: added prototype for scm_c_get_internal_run_time.
sweep time, total marked cells, total swept cells, and number of
times GC was invoked.
(gc_start_stats): renamed from scm_gc_start, made static, taught
to init the new stats.
(gc_end_stats): renamed from scm_gc_end, made static, taught to
calculate the new stats.
(scm_igc): don't call gc_start_stats unless we are sure that we
are indeed going to collect. also, added some timekeeping between
the mark and sweep phases.
(scm_gc_sweep): count number of cells we sweep as we go.
* gc.h: removed prototypes for scm_gc_{start,end}.
`(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
(Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
* list.c (scm_list_tail): Add @deffnx line to docstring for
list-cdr-ref.
* keywords.c: Docstring improvements in conjunction with new
reference manual doc on keywords.
* error.c (scm_error_scm): Fix texinfo syntax error in
docstring. (@code(~S) should be @code{~S}.)
* dynl.c: Remove surplus newlines from end of docstrings.
