* libguile/threads.c (scm_threads_mark_stacks): Cast `&t->regs' to
`(void *)' rather than `(SCM_STACKITEM *)' to avoid "warning:
dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules"
with GCC 4.2.1 on `i386-unknown-freebsd7.0'.
* libguile/threads.c (struct select_args): New.
(do_std_select): New function.
(scm_std_select): Don't use `scm_{leave,enter}_guile ()' since they don't
have any effect; use `scm_without_guile ()' instead.
* libguile/read.c (scm_read_string): Use `scm_i_make_read_only_string ()' to
return a read-only string, as mandated by R5RS. Reported by Bill
Schottstaedt <bil@ccrma.Stanford.EDU>.
* libguile/strings.c (scm_i_make_read_only_string): New function.
(scm_i_shared_substring_read_only): Special-case the empty string
so that the read-only and read-write empty strings are `eq?'. This
optimization is relied on by the `substring/shared' `empty string'
test case in `srfi-13.test'.
* libguile/strings.h (scm_i_make_read_only_string): New declaration.
* test-suite/tests/strings.test ("string-set!")["literal string"]: New test.
* NEWS: Update.
* libguile/strings.c (scm_i_symbol_substring): Return a read-only string
since R5RS requires `symbol->string' to return a read-only string.
Reported by Bill Schottstaedt <bil@ccrma.Stanford.EDU>.
* test-suite/tests/symbols.test: Add `define-module' clause.
(exception:immutable-string): Adjust to current exception.
("symbol->string")["result is an immutable string"]: Use
`pass-if-exception' instead of `expect-fail-exception'.
* NEWS: Update.
(reported by Bill Schottstaedt)
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_gcd): When only one arg given, use scm_abs
to ensure that result is non-negative.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test ("gcd"): New test, (gcd -2).
* libguile/gc.c (scm_gc): Don't use `scm_gc_running_p' as
an lvalue.
* libguile/gc.h (scm_gc_running_p): Define to 0.
* libguile/threads.h (scm_i_thread)[gc_running_p]: Remove.
Actually, threads would "go to sleep" either by blocking on a heap
allocation, or by noticing `scm_i_thread_go_to_sleep' is set when
running `SCM_TICK', which limits the applicability of this technique
(e.g., it was not appropriate for the shared string code).
* libguile/threads.c (scm_i_thread_go_to_sleep, scm_i_thread_put_to_sleep,
scm_i_thread_invalidate_freelists, scm_i_thread_wake_up,
scm_i_thread_sleep_for_gc): Remove.
* libguile/threads.h (scm_i_thread_go_to_sleep, scm_i_thread_put_to_sleep,
scm_i_thread_invalidate_freelists, scm_i_thread_wake_up,
scm_i_thread_sleep_for_gc): Remove declarations.
(SCM_THREAD_SWITCHING_CODE): Do nothing.
* libguile/strings.c (scm_i_string_writable_chars): Remove use of
`scm_i_thread_put_to_sleep ()'. This leaves a race condition,
which is hopefully not harmful.
* libguile/fluids.c (all_dynamic_states, all_fluids): Remove. Together,
they prevented dynamic states and fluids to be collected. Callers no
longer use them.
(resize_all_states): Remove.
(grow_dynamic_state): New function.
(next_fluid_num): Don't call `resize_all_states ()'.
(scm_i_fluid_num, scm_i_fast_fluid_ref, scm_i_fast_fluid_set_x): Remove,
as they broke encapsulation and would have needed duplication of the lazy
dynamic state growing code.
(scm_fluid_ref, scm_fluid_set_x): Lazily grow the dynamic state's fluid
vector.
(scm_fluids_prehistory): Don't set an `scm_after_sweep_c_hook'.
* libguile/fluids.h (SCM_FLUID_NUM, SCM_FAST_FLUID_REF, SCM_FAST_FLUID_SET_X,
scm_i_fluid_num, scm_i_fast_fluid_set_x, scm_i_fast_fluid_ref): Remove.
* libguile/load.c (the_reader_fluid_num): Remove.
(scm_primitive_load): Use `scm_fluid_ref ()' instead of
`SCM_FAST_FLUID_REF ()'.
(scm_init_load): Likewise.
Idea and original patch were by Ludovic Courts, this is Neil Jerram's
reworking of it.
* libguile/srfi-4.c (scm_uniform_vector_read_x): Use scm_c_read,
instead of equivalent code here.
* libguile/ports.c (scm_fill_input): Add assertion that read
buffer is empty when called.
(port_and_swap_buffer, swap_buffer): New, for...
(scm_c_read): Use caller's buffer for reading, to avoid making N
1-byte low-level read calls, in the case where the port is
unbuffered (or has a very small buffer).
* libguile/threads.c (on_thread_exit): Add caveat about possible
segfault.
git-archimport-id: lcourtes@laas.fr--2006-libre/guile-core--boehm-gc--0--patch-8
* libguile/gc-malloc.c (scm_gc_malloc): Pass a non-zero size to
`GC_MALLOC ()' when SIZE is zero.
git-archimport-id: lcourtes@laas.fr--2006-libre/guile-core--boehm-gc--0--patch-2
