* libguile/fports.c (fport_input_waiting): Use poll(2) instead of
select(2) when possible. Cosmetic changes by Ludovic Courtès.
* configure.in: Look for <poll.h> and `poll'.
* configure.in: Check for the vsnprintf(3) declaration.
* libguile/deprecation.c [!HAVE_DECL_VSNPRINTF]: Provide vsnprintf(3)
declaration. This is needed on `powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0'.
As the Autoconf documentation says, "These days portable programs
[...] should not rely on `HAVE_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS', since nowadays
whether a system call is restartable is a dynamic issue, not a
configuration-time issue."
In other words, if we ever rely on HAVE_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS, we are
at the mercy of any code that Guile happens to be linked with, because
that code could install a signal handler without the SA_RESTART flag,
and then a Guile system call could unexpectedly return EINTR.
The readline part of this goes back to this problem report:
excellent example of the above paragraph. It was noted during the
discussion that undefining HAVE_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS would fix the
problem, but that solution wasn't adopted - I guess because Guile was
still using cooperative threads then (not pthreads) and so there was a
significant concern (whether founded or not) that not using
restartable syscalls (where available) could lead to a loss of
performance.
Now Guile's default mode of operation is with pthreads, where we
already don't assume that HAVE_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS is reliable, so
there is no possible further performance loss. And in any case we
really have no choice, if we want correct operation.
* configure.in (AC_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS): Removed.
* doc/ref/posix.texi (Signals): Remove statement that Guile always
sets SA_RESTART flag.
* guile-readline/configure.in (GUILE_SIGWINCH_SA_RESTART_CLEARED):
Remove this setting, together with its test code.
(HAVE_RL_PRE_INPUT_HOOK): Remove this setting and its code, as no
longer needed.
* guile-readline/readline.c (sigwinch_enable_restart): Removed.
(scm_init_readline): Remove setting of rl_pre_input_hook.
* libguile/_scm.h (SCM_SYSCALL): Remove the definition that relies on
HAVE_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS.
* libguile/scmsigs.c (scm_sigaction_for_thread): Don't always set the
SA_RESTART flag if available. Update docstring accordingly.
(scm_init_scmsigs): Remove code that sets SA_RESTART flag for all
signals.
* configure.in: Check for the declaration of flock(2).
* libguile/posix.c [!__MINGW32__][!HAVE_DECL_FLOCK]: Provide an flock(2)
declaration, needed on Tru64 5.1b.
* configure.in (CPPFLAGS): Add `-mieee' or `-ieee' on Alpha and SH.
* libguile/numbers.c (guile_ieee_init): Make sure `-mieee' was passed
when using GCC on Alpha.
* NEWS: Update.
* configure.in: Check for the declaration of unsetenv(3), which Tru64
5.1b doesn't have.
* libguile/posix.c: Include <stdlib.h> since that's where POSIX says
unsetenv(3) should reside.
(scm_putenv): Don't attempt to use unsetenv(3) if its declaration
isn't available since that wouldn't work well on Tru64.
* configure.in (enable_deprecated): Set SCM_WARN_DEPRECATED_DEFAULT
even when --disable-deprecated is passed.
* libguile/deprecation.h: Declare deprecation-issuing methods even
if SCM_ENABLE_DEPRECATED is not set.
* libguile/deprecation.c: Ditto.
(scm_init_deprecation): Include full body even for unset
SCM_ENABLE_DEPRECATED.
Signed-off-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
* configure.in: Use `AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])'. Reverts patch
b01284227e and makes `libtoolize' from
Libtool 2 happier (removes a couple of warnings).
* Makefile.am (ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS): Remove `-I guile-config' since that
directory only contains macros that we distribute, not macros that we
use.
For explanation, see comments and text in the new file
libguile/measure-hwm.scm.
* .gitignore: Add libguile/stack-limit-calibration.scm.
* check-guile.in: Load libguile/stack-limit-calibration.scm.
* configure.in: Add AC_CONFIG_FILES to generate test-use-srfi from
test-use-srfi.in.
* libguile/Makefile.am (TESTS, TESTS_ENVIRONMENT,
stack-limit-calibration.scm): New targets, so that `make check'
calibrates the stack limit before running the Guile test suite.
* libguile/measure-hwm.scm: New file, calibrates stack limit for `make
check'.
* libguile/stackchk.c (scm_sys_get_stack_size): New primitive.
* libguile/stackchk.h (scm_sys_get_stack_size): New primitive
(declaration).
* test-suite/standalone/test-use-srfi: Renamed test-use-srfi.in, so
that ./configure can fill in variables in it.
* test-suite/standalone/test-use-srfi.in: Load
libguile/stack-limit-calibration.scm.
* configure.in: Update stack direction test to be like that in
Autoconf _AC_LIBOBJ_ALLOCA and Gnulib; specifically in involving a
function calling itself.
* debugger/commands.scm (evaluate, info-args, info-frame,
position, up, down): Improve/fix doc strings.
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add debugging.
(ice9_sources): Add gds-client.scm and gds-server.scm.
* scheme-debugging.texi: Remove lots of text that is now
duplicated (exactly) elsewhere, leaving only the `Tracing' node.
* guile.texi: Replace `Debugging Features' (scheme-debugging.texi)
by `Using Guile Interactively' and `Using Guile in Emacs'
(scheme-using.texi). Move the `Tracing' content of
scheme-debugging.texi to the Modules section.
* api-options.texi (Evaluator trap options): Move doc for
with-traps and debug-object? to here.
* api-modules.texi (Included Guile Modules): Change reference from
`Debugging Features' to `Tracing'.
* api-evaluation.texi (Evaluator Behaviour): Add reference to
`Evaluator trap options'.
* api-debug.texi (Examining the Stack): Minor improvements to
display-backtrace doc.
* api-debug.texi (Debug on Error): New text on how to catch errors
and the error stack.
* api-debug.texi (High Level Traps): New.
* api-debug.texi (Debugging): New intro text. New subsection
"Evaluation Model". Moved existing subsections "Capturing the
Stack or Innermost Stack Frame", "Examining the Stack", "Examining
Stack Frames", "Source Properties", "Decoding Memoized Source
Expressions" and "Starting a New Stack" under "Evaluation Model".
(Capturing the Stack or Innermost Stack Frame): Some new text, and
correction to doc for last-stack-frame.
(Debug on Error): Renamed from "Interactive Debugging".
* configure.in (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add emacs/Makefile and
ice-9/debugging/Makefile.

directly, and only if GUILE_I was defined by the configure step.
(scm_log, scm_log10, scm_exp, scm_sqrt): Use SCM_COMPLEX_VALUE
code only if SCM_COMPLEX_VALUE is defined.
* configure.in (--without-64-calls): Use AC_MSG_CHECKING and
AC_MSG_RESULT instead of just echo.
(GUILE_I): New programs to try using _Complex_I or 1.0fi for the
imaginary unit.
optimizing out the test. In particular this fixes solaris where there
isn't an isinf or isnan (though gcc still optimizes as if there is).
Reported by Hugh Sasse.
(AC_C_VOLATILE): New.
needed because it's empty, but including it does no harm.
(-lm): Look for "cos" instead of "main", since cos and friends are the
purpose of looking for libm.
(winsock etc): Test $host = *-*-mingw* rather than $MINGW32, autoconf
regards the latter as obsolete.
(AC_MINGW32): Remove test, $MINGW32 now unused.
(uint32_t): Look at HAVE_NETDB_H rather than hard-coding __MINGW32__
in the test program.
