When the compression format changed to LZ4, which is much faster to
decompress than zlib, the configure script changed to enable
compression by default. Bytecode tends to benefit all around from
compression, but the boot files take 20ms or so longer to load --- not
a lot of time when loading typical amounts of code, but a signficiant
cost for a minimal startup. This commit allows compression to be
controlled separately for boot files, and it configures them as
uncompressed by default.
* Remove irrelevant #ifdefs MZ_USE_JIT
Bonus points - fixes a compiler warning on aarch64 and a typo.
* Fixes a compiler warning on aarch64 for unused current_linklet_native_lambdas
* Simplify conditionals after removing dead store of has_space
The conditional simplification looks good to me. The biggest issue
here was to understand if when `pipe_quote` is true, we can and should
go to the else clause. Actually the more I look at it the more I think
this uncovers and earlier bug where if pipe_quote is true, result and
total_length are left at NULL and 0 respectively after the block.
Change `datum->syntax` so that it limits the transfer of a code
inspector from a source syntax object; the code inspector is kept only
if a macro is being expanded and the macro has the same code inspector
(or, more generally, the weaker of the two code inspectors is
preserved).
This change is a kind of defense-in-depth to prevent the use of
unarmed syntax with `datum->syntax` to access unexported bindings from
the module where a syntax object originates.
The general approach is Ryan's idea. This particular implementation is
a simplification of the general idea, and we'll see whether it's
worakble and sufficient.
The changes in aab63ad3 introduced a dependency on
racket/private/promise, which the analysis was not capable of dropping
due to the use of the `prop:force` property. This caused trouble for the
thread layer, since it introduced a reference to `error`, which is
defined in the io layer. This change adds some additional detection for
struct type properties with guards that accept procedures of particular
arities, which allows `prop:force` to be marked as pure.
Also, a typo in the thread layer’s Makefile meant globals weren’t
actually getting tracked, so this fixes that, too.
`for/fold` is a left fold, which is normally what you want in a
call-by-value language such as Racket, but it makes efficient lazy
iteration difficult. This commit adds a new `for/foldr` iteration form
(along with `for*/` and `/derived` variants) that provides a right fold
operation that offers complete control over precisely how lazy the
iteration ought to be.
In simple microbenchmarks, reimplementing `for/stream` to use
`for/foldr` instead of `for` plus a generator can be almost 40x faster
on large streams.
When `read/recursive` is used, do not inherit parameter values
recorded by an enclosing `read`, and instead look them up again.
This change restores behavior of the old reader.
Closes#2661
When ">" appears in a procedure name, or when other characters appear
that would normally need to be escaped in a symbol, don't add escapes
since `#<....>` isn't readable anyway. This change makes renamed
procedures print in a consistent way with primitive procedures.
Similarly adjust the printing of structure type names.
Closes#2646
Closes#2659 by both recognizing `lib64` as a default path and by
having `--enable-origtree` override inference and specified when
running `configure` through the root makefile.
Swapping the blame before adding #:important context associates the
important party with the negative party for the purposes of picking
“contract violation” versus “broke its own contract” messages in error
reporting. Therefore, only swap after adding the context.
fixes#2531
Instead of limiting the nursery size and performing a full GC every
time a small nursery is full, allow the nursery to be proportional
to the total heap size if generational GC is disabled.
This option allows the user to enable or disable (with
--disable-generations or --enable-generations=no) generations in
3m. Disabling generational collection is, in most cases, a bad
idea, but it may be necessary on a platform where signal handling
doesn't work well enough to support a write barrier that is
implemented with page protection.
Ignore new autoconf variable added in 2.70.
The interesting thing is that debian decided to backport this variable
to their 2.69 release so in some 2.69 autoconf this variable does not
exist but in debian ports 2.69 generates this variable. It is
nonetheless not useful for Racket, so add to ignore list.
When using a built-for-bootstrapping Racket to build Racket CS, the
intermediate module loading module mode should be `--boot` instead of
`--chain`. The repo's top-level makefile takes care of that already,
but not `configure`-generated makefiles as may happen in a build from
a source distribution.
Allows an inaccessible custodian to be GCed, promoting any values that
it manages to its parent custodian. Also repair memory accounting for
custodian boxes.
For values referenced by a custodian, the nature of the custodian's
weak references is slightly different on Racket CS. The reference is
weak enough that the value can be finalized via will (e.g., to close
an unused port), but it's not weak enough to allow weak boxes, weak
hash table keys, or ephemeron keys to be cleared. That's a consequence
of using ordered finalization instead of finalization/weakness levels.
This difference could be avoided at the cost of an extra wrapper for
any finalized value and a discipline of using such wrappers as the
user-visible reference for all custodian-managed values, but semi-weak
references so far appear to be practical and a better compromise.
