For 64-bit builds, MSVC has become smart enough to inline functions
in a way that interferes with the implementation of continuations,
so that (planet "williams/simulation/examples/model-2b") crashes,
for example. Explicitly disabling inlining avoids the problem by
making the C stack layout match the implementation's expectation.
The module cache was added in 97ce26b1 (April 16, 2011),
but it was accidentally disabled in e9721058 (May 5, 2011).
This time, I figured out a way to test whether the cache is
working (other than to benchmark examples, which is how I
discovered that it wasn't working).
For example,
(define-for-syntax (f x) (g x))
(define-for-syntax (g y) y)
is now allowed. The unbound-variable check for phase 1
and up is delayed until after the module body is partially expanded.
The JIT and bytecode compiler disagreed on the definition of
"constant". Now there are two levels: "constant" means constant across
all instantiations, and "fixed" means constant for a given instantation.
The JIT uses this distinction to generate direct-primitive calls
or not. (Without the distinction, a direct jump to `reverse' could
be wrong, because `racket/base' might get instantiated with the
JIT disabled or not.)
Also, fixed a bug in the JIT's `vector-set!' code in the case that
the target vector is a top-/module-level reference that is ready,
fixed, or constant.
More specifically, for a string of length N and a match that
only looks at the first M characters, the complexity of
`regexp-match' is now O(M) instead of O(N). This allows
`regexp-split' to be O(N) for a string instead of O(N^2).
Also, fixed a bug in non-greedy matching that could affect
both long strings and input ports.
Commit 311d55b5cf fixed a shallow bug that masked a deeper
bug in the interaction of local bindings and module-level
bindings. This one fixes the deeper problem, which is that
the recursive resolution that ignores module bindings should
start from the beginning of the wraps, not the wrap after
a module renaming.
Closes PR 12116
Shared locking now allowed only on input port, and exclusive
locking is allowed only on output ports, which allows an implementation
via fcntl(...,F_SETLK,...).
