* acinclude.m4: Disable JIT by default on not-x86-64. Although I got
JIT mostly working on 32-bit x86, I got nondeterministic segfaults
deep in lightning, on that platform; perhaps indicating a bug in the
optimizer. After a day of poking and not solving the problem, I think
that I don't want the complexity of Lightning's node representation,
especially on platforms that get less testing. In the future we'll
use the lightning backends without the node layer.
* NEWS: Update.
* libguile/jit.c (compile_u64_imm_less): Compare high word using
not-equal, to avoid a signedness compare.
(compile_s64_imm_less, compile_imm_s64_less): Fix the not-less cases.
* libguile/jit.c (record_gpr_clobber): If we clobber SP or FP, clear the
appropriate register state bits. Only exercised for 32-bit targets in
practice!
(emit_alloc_frame, emit_push_frame): Fix a couple places where we were
failing to track the register state correctly.
(compile_umul): Remove a needless register state flush, nowthat
qmulr_u has a wrapper that tracks this for us.
* module/system/vm/linker.scm (<linker-object>): Add name field. This
allows the linker to find sections by name, notably before having
found the .shstrtab section. As there can be multiple sections with
type SHT_STRTAB, this fixes a bug whereby we could use a section
name (a strtab index) into an unrelated strtab. In the past this
worked because with ASCII identifiers there won't be an exception,
although it is possible to accidentally mistake a shared string tail;
but with UTF-8 identifiers, it's possible for a string table index to
point in the middle of a codepoint, which is likely not valid UTF-8
and would raise a bug. Keeping an additional section name field fixes
this bug. Adapt all callers to pass a name argument to
make-linker-object.
(find-shstrndx): Update to look at the name field.
* module/system/vm/assembler.scm (make-object): Pass name to
make-linker-object.
Thanks to Daniel Llorens for the test case.
* libguile/srfi-14.c (scm_sys_char_set_dump): Silence an erroneous
-Wformat-overflow warning based on an incorrect range inference by
increasing output buffer size.
* doc/ref/api-debug.texi (VM Hooks): Update for changes in VM hook API.
* doc/ref/guile.texi: Update copyright years.
* doc/ref/preface.texi (Contributors): Update.
* doc/ref/compiler.texi (Bytecode): Update macro-assembler instructions,
and move most of them to the instruction set reference.
* doc/ref/vm.texi (A Virtual Machine for Guile, VM Programs): Minor
fixes.
(Instruction Set): Update for Guile 3 instruction set.
* libguile/vm-engine.c (vm_engine): Update a few instruction
docstrings.
* doc/ref/data-rep.texi (The SCM Type in Guile): Refer to scm.h.
(Relationship Between SCM and scm_t_bits): Better title-case.
(Immediate Objects): Better title-case. Prefer "heap object" over
"cell".
(Non-Immediate Objects): Better title-case. Deprecate the concept of
cells.
(Allocating Heap Objects): Rename from Allocating Cells.
(Heap Object Type Information): Rename from Heap Cell Type Information.
(Accessing Heap Object Fields): Rename from Accessing Cell Entries.
* doc/ref/vm.texi: Update references.
* libguile/jit.c (compile_s64_numerically_equal): Remove as this
instruction was removed in previous refactoring.
(compile_atomic_scm_set_immediate), compile_atomic_scm_ref_immediate):
Adapt to change in C name of these instructions.
* libguile/vm-engine.c: Add comments for all instructions.
* libguile/vm-engine.c (abort): If the abort doesn't need to longjmp and
the abort hook was enabled, cache registers first to avoid restoring
a bad IP to the VM.
* libguile/loader.h (SCM_OBJCODE_MINIMUM_MINOR_VERSION):
(SCM_OBJCODE_MINOR_VERSION): Bump version.
* module/system/vm/assembler.scm (*bytecode-minor-version*): Bump.
* libguile/vm-engine.c: Rearrange opcodes to be contiguous and in a
somewhat sensible order.
* libguile/jit.c: Wrap the whole thing in ENABLE_JIT.
* libguile/threads.c (on_thread_exit):
* libguile/vm.c (scm_call_n):
* libguile/init.c (scm_i_init_guile):
* libguile/vm-engine.c (VM_NAME): Wrap calls into jit.c with ENABLE_JIT.
* configure.ac: Move up AC_CANONICAL_TARGET, as autoconf was complaining
about it coming after AC_ARG_PROGRAM.
* acinclude.m4 (GUILE_ENABLE_JIT): Fix to honor --enable-jit arg.
* libguile/vm.c (scm_i_vm_emergency_abort): New helper: an abort that
doesn't allocate, not even stack.
* libguile/throw.c (abort_to_prompt): Use scm_i_vm_emergency_abort.
* libguile/vm.h: Declare helper.
