For a pending large allocation, we will try to page out blocks from the
nofl space. However sometimes we are not able to do so, especially if
evacuation is unavailable, as in a heap-conservative configuration. In
that case, if the heap is growable, grow the heap after GC if there are
still bytes pending to page out.
* module/ice-9/boot-9.scm (primitive-load): Define a version in Scheme
that uses read-syntax. This allows the expander to be able to access
source locations.
* configure.ac: Remove code to detect BDW, that is taken care of by the
whippet macros. Remove support for ia64, for the moment at least,
perhaps for good.
* libguile/Makefile.am (libguile_@GUILE_EFFECTIVE_VERSION@_la_LDFLAGS):
Remove BDW cflags.
(modinclude_HEADERS): Remove bdw-gc.h.
* libguile/bdw-gc.h: Remove.
* libguile/fluids.c:
* libguile/hashtab.c:
* libguile/numbers.c:
* libguile/smob.c:
* libguile/srfi-4.c:
* libguile/struct.c:
* libguile/vectors.c:
* libguile/vm.c: Remove bdw-gc.h includes.
* meta/guile-4.0-uninstalled.pc.in (Libs):
* meta/guile-4.0.pc.in (Libs): Remove direct dependency on BDW-GC, as it
is all encapsulated through Whippet, which is not publically exposed.
* libguile/atomics-internal.h (scm_atomic_subtract_size): New helper.
* libguile/gc.c (scm_gc_register_allocation): Rework to use atomics.
(scm_gc_event_listener_restarting_mutators): Reset the
off_heap_allocation_countdown to the heap size after GC.
(scm_gc_disable, scm_gc_enable): Remove these. Unclear what they mean
exactly! Perhaps if there is a meaning we can look at it later.
(scm_i_gc):
(scm_storage_prehistory):
(scm_init_gc): Update.
* libguile/threads.c (with_guile, scm_without_guile): Use gc_activate /
gc_deactivate API. It's a noop on BDW, but all we lose is a bit of
precision.
(%call-with-new-thread): Remove GC_collect_a_little call, it was
useless.
Oh yeah! They are almost impossible to use correctly as-is, have mostly
disappeared in practice (I am aware of only two users), have the wrong
interface for moving collectors, and current usage has cemented smobs as
conservatively-marked objects. In order to move forward with Whippet,
they have to go!
* libguile/deprecated.h (SCM_SMOB_MARK, SCM_GLOBAL_SMOB_MARK, scm_mark0)
(scm_markcdr, scm_free0, scm_set_smob_mark, scm_gc_mark): Remove these,
leaving defines to indicate that users should talk to guile-devel to
figure out what to do.
* libguile/smob.h: Remove interfaces relating to mark functions.
(scm_new_double_smob, scm_new_smob): Make not inline
* libguile/smob.c: Remove mark functions from here.
(scm_new_smob): Out-of-line-only definition.
(scm_smob_prehistory): Don't create a new GC kind for smobs.
* test-suite/standalone/test-smob-mark-race.c:
* test-suite/standalone/test-smob-mark.c: Remove.
* test-suite/standalone/Makefile.am: Update.
* libguile/symbols.c: Rework the symbol table to be an ephemeron table
instead of a weak set. It is no longer resizeable; getting that to work
will involve some GC cooperation.
* libguile/ephemerons.h:
* libguile/ephemerons.c (scm_c_ephemeron_load, scm_c_ephemeron_push):
New routines.
* libguile/ioext.c (scm_fdes_to_ports): Rework in terms of
scm_c_port_for_each.
* libguile/ports-internal.h (struct scm_t_port): Add pointer to entry on
weak ports list, so that we can cancel it easily.
* libguile/ports.c (release_port): Mark weak ports list entry as dead.
(all_ports_needing_close, for_each_port_needing_close): Rework as
ephemeron chain.
(scm_c_make_port_with_encoding, close_port, scm_c_port_for_each): Adapt
API.
(scm_init_ports): No more weak set.
