* src/*.[ch]: Replaced `scm_mem2symbol' by `scm_from_locale_symboln' and
`scm_ulong2num' by `scm_from_ulong'.
* src/vm_system.c (tail-call): Fixed stack leak (SP lacked decrement by
one more Scheme object in the tail-recursive case).
* benchmark/measure.scm (measure): Make sure we are using the compiled
procedure (i.e. a program object) when measuring. This yields better
results than before. :-)
* doc/guile-vm.texi: Augmented the instruction set documentation with
branch instructions, `call' and `tail-call'.
git-archimport-id: lcourtes@laas.fr--2004-libre/guile-vm--revival--0.6--patch-7
* benchmark/lib.scm: New file.
* benchmark/measure.scm: New file.
* README: Added useful pointers to various threads.
* doc/guile-vm.texi: Fixed the description of `load-program' (it now expects
_immediate_ integers).
* src/*.[ch]: Use immediate integers whereever possible, as in the original
code. For `CONS', use `scm_cell' rather than `scm_cons'.
git-archimport-id: lcourtes@laas.fr--2004-libre/guile-vm--revival--0.6--patch-6
* src/*.[ch]: Replaced the remaining `SCM_MAKINUM', and changed `SCM_VELTS'
into `scm_vector_elements ()'.
* src/vm_loader.c (link): Fixed so that it pushed a variable object on
the stack.
* src/vm_system.c (variable-ref): Fixed so that it uses `scm_variable_ref ()'
and friends.
* module/system/vm/assemble.scm (dump-object!): Fixed the string case.
* src/vm_engine.h (CONS): Use `scm_cons' instead of `SCM_NEWCELL'.
* doc/guile-vm.texi: Added actual instruction definitions, explanations of
the program invocation mechanism, programs' object tables, etc., in the
`Instruction Set' chapter.
git-archimport-id: lcourtes@laas.fr--2004-libre/guile-vm--revival--0.6--patch-5
* doc/guile-vm.texi: Texified and cleaned up.
* src/vm.c: Use `scm_from_locale_string ()' instead of `scm_makfrom0str ()'.
* src/vm_engine.c: Likewise.
* src/programs.c (scm_program_bytecode): Return a u8vector instead of a string.
* module/system/vm/conv.scm (make-byte-decoder): Fixed a few things wrt. to
the string to u8vector transition.
* src/objcodes.c (bytecode->objcode): Fixed a bug where the last 10 bytes of
the bytecode where ignored.
* module/system/vm/assemble.scm (dump-object!): Don't convert everything
to a u8vector, keep strings where it makes sense.
* module/system/vm/conv.scm (code->bytes): Accordingly, convert strings to
u8vectors when needed.
(make-byte-decoder): Accordingly too, when decoding instructions, return
variable-length instructions' argument as strings except for `load-program'.
* module/system/vm/disasm.scm: Export `disassemble-bytecode'.
git-archimport-id: lcourtes@laas.fr--2004-libre/guile-vm--revival--0.6--patch-4
* src/*.c: Removed calls to `scm_must_malloc', `SCM_MUST_MALLOC' and
`scm_must_free'. Same for `SCM_INUMP', `SCM_INUM', `SCM_STRING_CHARS',
and the likes.
* module/system/base/syntax.scm: Do not import `(ice-9 match)' and do
not re-export `match', do not export `syntax-error' which was not
defined here.
* module/system/base/compile.scm (call-with-compile-error-catch): Use
the `catch' form instead of `try'.
* src/instructions.c: Use `scm_from_char ()' instead of the deprecated
macro `SCM_MAKINUM ()'.
* src/instructions.h (scm_instruction): Made `npop' a signed char.
git-archimport-id: lcourtes@laas.fr--2004-libre/guile-vm--revival--0.6--patch-2
* libguile/struct.c (scm_struct_ref, scm_struct_set_x): "Light" structs
have no hidden words (members of the SCM_STRUCT_DATA(x) array accessed
with negative indices). In that case, determine the number of fields
from the length of the struct layout descriptor. (Most GOOPS instances
are light structs.)
* libguile/goops.c (get_slot_value, set_slot_value): In the struct
allocation case, don't poke the slots array directly -- we should
go through struct-ref/struct-set! code so that we get the
permissions and allocation ('u' versus 'p') correct.
1000000000.
(unchecked_unlock_sym, allow_external_unlock_sym,
recursive_sym): Use SCM_SYMBOL.
(scm_make_mutex_with_flags): When raising unsupported option
error, report what the unsupported option was.
(fat_mutex_unlock): When raising errors, unlock m->lock first.
(fat_cond_timedwait): Removed.
(scm_timed_wait_condition_variable): Call fat_mutex_unlock
directly instead of via fat_cond_timedwait.
duplicated elsewhere); doc for with-traps and debug-object? moved
to section on evaluator trap options.
(High Level Traps): Renamed just `Traps'. Add references to
evaluator trap options and debug options. Make language
appropriate for core Guile (as opposed to previously separate
package).
(Location Traps): Corrected to reflect that location traps now
specify a specific position, not a range of positions.
(Debugging Examples): New (content moved here from
scheme-debugging.texi, and updated to use traps instead of
breakpoints).
* api-modules.texi (Included Guile Modules): Change `Debugging
Features' reference to `Tracing'.
* api-options.texi (Evaluator trap options): Doc for with-traps
and debug-object? is now here.
* guile.texi, scheme-debugging.texi: Move the `Tracing' content of
scheme-debugging.texi to the Modules section.
* scheme-using.texi (Using Guile in Emacs, GDS Getting Started):
Minor edits.
* scheme-debugging.texi (Debugging Features, Intro to
Breakpoints): Removed.
(Examples): Moved to api-debug.texi.
(Tracing, Old Tracing): Promoted one level.
(New Tracing, Tracing Compared): Removed.
forever, and are known to conflict on some platforms with that
provided by <errno.h>, which we include unconditionally. If
<errno.h> doesn't provide a errno declaration, what is the point
of it?
