Support "Unix-style" (as opposed to "in-place") installation for
OS X, which is mostly a matter of putting ".app" files in the
right place and correcting relative references.
Intended to fix#1180
The recently added fast path for property-only chaperones did not
propagate the original object in the case that the property-only
chaperone wraps a `chaperone-procedure*` chaprerone.
Merge to v6.4
Fix `procedure-specialize` for a procedure that refers to a
syntax-object literal. A syntax-object literal becomes part of the
procedure closure, but in a special way that nomrally allows syntax
objects to be loaded on demand. For now, specialization counts as
a demand of the syntax object.
Merge to v6.4
After the JIT buffer becomes too full, some paths
don't bail out fast enough, so guard against
broken info in some relatively new uses of the info.
Merge to v6.4
When a procedure created by `unsafe-{chaperone,impersonate}-procedure`
is given the wrong number of arguments, the original procedure's name
should be used in the error message.
During inlining, the type information gathered in
code that was inside the lambda is copied to the outer
context. But the coordinates of the type information
were shifted in the wrong direction, so the type was
assigned to the wrong variable.
This bug is difficult to trigger, so the test is convoluted.

Add 'module-body-inside-context, 'module-body-outside-context, and
'module-body-context-simple? properties to the expansion of a
`module` form. These properties expose scopes that are used by
`module->namespace` and taht appear in marshaled bytecode.
OS X's libssl is deprecated, and it doesn't work with SSL connections
that need SNI. We'll distribute out own libssl builds for OS X via a
package, but we need a native implementation that works well enough to
get that package.
The 'secure protocol symbol is just a shorthand for
`(ssl-secure-client-context)`, but it helps highlight
that the default 'auto isn't secure, and having a plain
symbol smooths the connection to native Win32 and OS X
implementations of SSL.
The getdtablesize() result appears not to be constant on OS X.
Creating some combination of CFStream objects, threads, and CFRunLoop
objects can cause the value to be increased by a factor of 10. Avoid
the need for getdtablesize() by switching from select() to poll().
When a module defines <name-1> and doesn't export it, but when
the module imports <name-2> and re-exports that refers to another
module's definition of <name-1>, then <name-1> wasn't properly
registered as an unexported binding.
Most of the implementation change is just a clean-up of an
unnecessary traversal from before the addition of a `count`
field in each hash table.
When a tree marshaled to bytecode form has many shared pieces,
the unmarshaling process can lose track of the sharing in one
place and traverse too much of the structure as pieces are
loaded.
Use a job object to ensure that subprocesses that are meant
to be killed by the current custodian are reliably terminated
if Racket exits for any reason.
Although `procedure-specialize` should be useful in places where
inlining does not apply, allowing inlining and related optimizations
through it, anyway.
After adding `procedure-specialize`, making
`procedure-closure-contents-eq?` work as before involves
a little extra tracking. I'd prefer to weaken or
even get rid of `procedure-closure-contents-eq?`, but
this adjustment keeps some contract tests passing.
The `procedure-specialize` function is the identity function, but it
provides a hint to the JIT to compile the body of a closure
specifically for the values in the closure (as opposed to compiling
the body generically for all closure instances).
This hint is useful to the contract system, where a predicate
is coerced to a projection with
(lambda (p?)
(procedure-specialize
(lambda (v)
(if (p? v)
v
....))))
Specializing the projection to a given `p?` allows primitive
predicates to be JIT-inlined in the projection's body.
Make the JIT-generated function-call dispatch recognize a call to
an impersonator that wraps a procedure only to hold properties.
This change also repairs handling for a arity-reducing wrapper
on a primitive, where the fast path incorrecty treated the
primitive as a JIT-generated function.
A value that starts "1", "y", or "Y" enabled incremental mode
permanently (any value was allowed formerly), while a value that
starts "0", "n", or "N" causes incremental-mode requests to be
ignored.
When a major GC triggers finalization, another major
GC is scheduled immediately on the grounds that the
finalizer may release other values. That was important
at once time, but the finalization and weak-reference
implementation has improved to the point where the
extra ful GC no longer seems necessary or useful.
Originally, generation 1/2 was intended to delay major
collections when the heap is especially large. It doesn't
seem to be effective in that case, and it can slow down
minor GCs, so continue to use it only in incremental
mode (where it helps significantly with fragmentation).
At the completion of an incremental major GC, if incremental
mode wasn't requested recently, schedule an immediate major
GC to reduce the heap back to its normal footprint.
Also, make nursery 1/4 as big in incremental mode, and
correspondingly tune the amount of work to perform per
collection by 1/4 its old value. Using generation 1/2
reduces fragmentation that would otherwise be increase
by a smaller nursery.
The main intent of this change is to raise the buffer size
for ARM, but that would leave only 32-bit x86 at size 100, so
just make it size large for all machines.
Increemntal GC skips the old-generation compaction phase.
For most applications, that's ok, but it's possible for
fragmentation to get out of hand. Detect that situation
and fall back to non-incremental mode for one major GC.
Memory accounting is enabled on demand; if demand goes
away --- as approximated by no live custodians having
a limit or previously been queried for memory use ---
then stop accounting until demand resumes.
Fix the case that an old-generation finalizer ends up
on a modified page after all old-generation marking
is complete.
Also, make sure epehemerons are checked after previous
marking that may have left the stack empty.
The allocation strategy for immobile objects avoids some fragmentation
in non-incremental mode, but it interferes with finishing up an
incremental major collection, so trade some fragmentation for
an earlier finish (which is far more likely to use less memory
instead of more, despite extra fragmentation).
Really, just improve when majors GCs are forced to trigger
further finalizations. This improvement makes `(collect-garbage)`
followed by `(collect-garbage 'incremental)` move more
reliably into incremental mode.
When `(collect-garbage 'minor)` is combined with incremental
mode, do less incremental work. At the same time, don't
skip an incremental GC just because a major GC is ready.
Although calling `(collect-garbage 'incremental)` in a program with
a periodic task is the best way to request incremental collection, it's
handy for some experiments to have an environment variable that turns
it on permanently.
This change also makes incremental-mode minor collections log as "mIn"
instead of "min", and it changes the first field of the logged
`gc-info` structure to be a mode symbol instead of a boolean.
