* libguile/ports.h (struct scm_t_port_buffer): New data type. (struct scm_t_port): Refactor to use port buffers instead of implementation-managed read and write pointers. Add "read_buffering" member. (SCM_INITIAL_PUTBACK_BUF_SIZE, SCM_READ_BUFFER_EMPTY_P): Remove. (scm_t_ptob_descriptor): Rename "fill_input" function to "read", and take a port buffer, returning void. Likewise "write" takes a port buffer and returns void. Remove "end_input"; instead if there is buffered input and rw_random is true, then there must be a seek function, so just seek back if needed. Remove "flush"; instead all calls to the "write" function implicitly include a "flush", since the buffering happens in the generic port code now. Remove "setvbuf", but add "get_natural_buffer_sizes"; instead the generic port code can buffer any port. (scm_make_port_type): Adapt to read and write prototype changes. (scm_set_port_flush, scm_set_port_end_input, scm_set_port_setvbuf): Remove. (scm_slow_get_byte_or_eof_unlocked) (scm_slow_get_peek_or_eof_unlocked): Remove; the slow path is to call scm_fill_input. (scm_set_port_get_natural_buffer_sizes): New function. (scm_c_make_port_buffer): New internal function. (scm_port_non_buffer): Remove. This was a function for implementations that is no longer needed. Instead open with BUF0 or use (setvbuf port 'none). (scm_fill_input, scm_fill_input_unlocked): Return the filled port buffer. (scm_get_byte_or_eof_unlocked, scm_peek_byte_or_eof_unlocked): Adapt to changes in buffering and EOF management. * libguile/ports.c: Adapt to port interface changes. (initialize_port_buffers): New function, using the port mode flags to set up appropriate initial buffering for all ports. (scm_c_make_port_with_encoding): Create port buffers here instead of delegating to implementations. (scm_close_port): Flush the port if needed instead of delegating to the implementation. * libguile/filesys.c (set_element): Adapt to buffering changes. * libguile/fports.c (fport_get_natural_buffer_sizes): New function, replacing scm_fport_buffer_add. (fport_write, fport_read): Update to let the generic ports code do the buffering. (fport_flush, fport_end_input): Remove. (fport_close): Don't flush in a dynwind; that's the core ports' job. (scm_make_fptob): Adapt. * libguile/ioext.c (scm_redirect_port): Adapt to buffering changes. * libguile/poll.c (scm_primitive_poll): Adapt to buffering changes. * libguile/ports-internal.h (struct scm_port_internal): Remove pending_eof flag; this is now set on the read buffer. * libguile/r6rs-ports.c (struct bytevector_input_port): New type. The new buffering arrangement means that there's now an intermediate buffer between the bytevector and the user of the port; this could lead to a perf degradation, but on the other hand there are some other speedups enabled by the buffering refactor, so probably the memcpy cost is dwarfed by the cost of the other parts of the ports machinery. (make_bytevector_input_port, bytevector_input_port_read): (bytevector_input_port_seek, initialize_bytevector_input_ports): Adapt to new buffering arrangement. (struct custom_binary_port): Remove read buffer, as Guile handles that now. (custom_binary_input_port_setvbuf): Remove; now handled by Guile. (make_custom_binary_input_port, custom_binary_input_port_read) (initialize_custom_binary_input_ports): Adapt. (scm_get_bytevector_some): Adapt to new EOF management. (scm_t_bytevector_output_port_buffer): Hold on to the underlying port, so we can flush it if it's open. (make_bytevector_output_port, bytevector_output_port_write): (bytevector_output_port_seek): Adapt. (bytevector_output_port_procedure): Flush the port as appropriate, so that we get all the bytes. (make_custom_binary_output_port, custom_binary_output_port_write): Adapt. (make_transcoded_port): Don't muck with buffering. (transcoded_port_write): Simply forward the write to the underlying port. (transcoded_port_read): Likewise. (transcoded_port_close): No need to flush. (initialize_transcoded_ports): Adapt. * libguile/read.c (scm_i_scan_for_encoding): Adapt to buffering changes. * libguile/rw.c (scm_write_string_partial): Adapt to buffering changes. * libguile/strports.c: Adapt to the fact that we don't manage the buffer. Probably room for speed improvements here... * libguile/vports.c (soft_port_get_natural_buffer_sizes): New function. Adapt the rest of the file for the new buffering regime. * test-suite/tests/r6rs-ports.test ("8.2.10 Output ports"): Custom binary output ports need to be flushed before you can rely on the write! procedure having been called. Add necessary flush-port invocations. ("8.2.6 Input and output ports"): Transcoded ports now have an internal buffer by default. This test checks that the characters are transcoded one at a time, so to do that, call setvbuf on the transcoded port to remove the buffer. * test-suite/tests/web-client.test (run-with-http-transcript): Fix for different flushing regime on soft ports. (The vestigial flush procedure is now called after each write, which is not what the test was expecting.) * test-suite/standalone/test-scm-c-read.c: Update for changes to the C interface for defining port types. * doc/ref/api-io.texi (Ports): Update to discuss buffering in a generic way, and to remove a hand-wavey paragraph describing string ports as "interesting and powerful". (Reading, Writing): Remove placeholder comments. Document `scm_lfwrite'. (Buffering): New section. (File Ports): Link to buffering. (I/O Extensions): Join subnodes into parent and describe new API, including buffering API. * doc/ref/posix.texi (Ports and File Descriptors): Link to buffering. Remove unread-char etc, as they are documented elsewhere. (Pipes, Network Sockets and Communication): Link to buffering. |

This directory contains some tests for Guile, and some generic test support code. To run these tests, you will need a version of Guile more recent than 15 Feb 1999 --- the tests use the (ice-9 and-let*) and (ice-9 getopt-long) modules, which were added to Guile around then. For information about how to run the test suite, read the usage instructions in the comments at the top of the guile-test script. You can reference the file `lib.scm' from your own code as the module (test-suite lib); it also has comments at the top and before each function explaining what's going on. Please write more Guile tests, and send them to bug-guile@gnu.org. We'll merge them into the distribution. All test suites must be licensed for our use under the GPL, but I don't think I'm going to collect assignment papers for them. Some test suite philosophy: GDB has an extensive test suite --- around 6300 tests. Every time the test suite catches a bug, it's great. GDB is so complicated that folks are often unable to get a solid understanding of the code before making a change --- we just don't have time. You'll see people say things like, "Here's a fix for X; it doesn't cause any regressions." The subtext is, I made a change that looks reasonable, and the test suite didn't complain, so it must be okay. I think this is terrible, because it suggests that the writer is using the test suite as a substitute for having a rock-solid explanation of why their changes are correct. The problem is that any test suite is woefully incomplete. Diligent reasoning about code can catch corner conditions or limitations that no test suite will ever find. Jim's rule for test suites: Every test suite failure should be a complete, mysterious surprise, never a possibility you were prepared for. Any other attitude indicates that you're using the test suite as a crutch, which you need only because your understanding is weak.
