Chez Scheme doesn't provide `eq-hash-code`, so it's implemented with a
weak `eq?`-based hash table that maps values to fixnums (except for
numbers, symbols, and characters). The table had a lock to support
concurrent use in multiple places, and that became a major source of
contention in parallel builds. Change the implementation to use a new
`eq-hashtable-try-atomic-cell` operation, which effectively moves
contention from the hash table to individual buckets (where it should
be much rarer).
Commit fe708871bd broke cross-module inlining for modules that are
compiled in different Racket processes. The problem is that
cross-module information is represented by prefab structures, and the
change caused Chez Scheme's fasl for prefabs to generate a different
structure type on different runs.
To solve the problem, use `racket/fasl` for cross-module information,
instead. But cross-module information also has inlining information as
correlated objects, so make those supported by `racket/fasl`, too.
The first time a struct is provided through `(contract-out (struct id ....))`,
save `id` to access its transformer binding later.
On reprovides:
- hang on to the original `id`
- use its transformer to recover the original predicate/accessor/mutator names
Also, fix a bug where the order of the mutator ids reported by the
struct info was getting reversed
Probably, nobody noticed that bug. They'd have to work around the renaming
issue in #2572 first.
The default module name resolver uses a cache to map module names to
resolved-path information. The cache was weak in a way that turns out
to be much weaker on Racket CS, essentially because Chez Scheme is
tuned to fire a minor GC more frequently.
The new cache cuts 45 minutes(!) from a 2h15m single-process
distribution build of Racket CS on Linux. That brings it under a factor
of 1.5 of the non-CS build time, instead of over a factor of 2.
Thanks to Caner and Sam for pointing out LONG ago (maybe a year ago)
that the cache works badly for Pycket. Since the cache doesn't make a
big difference for `racketcs -cl racket`, though, it took me this long
to understand that it can be such a big deal for Racket CS when
performing a distribution build.
Help avoid problems with serialization by making the generation of
embedded module symbolic names deterministic and relatively
insensitive to module order. The generated name is based on a
combination of `path->module-path` and paths relative to the
main module of the executable.
Related to #2693
The new flags can be used to make an embedded module's name
predicatable, which is useful for making a deserialization format
stable (i.e., `serializable-struct` creates a serializer that uses the
embedded module name). This functionality was already available from
`create-embedding-executable`, but there was no way to reach it via
`raco exe`.
The total time of module name resolver calls is more useful, because
each one takes longer, there should be many fewer, and there are
tasks that end up resolving module paths.
The change to `err/rt-test` exposed several compiler bugs by putting
error expressions in multiple contexts, but some error tests depend on
trying to run just once.
When support for machine-independent bytecode was added, the bootstrap
implementation of linklets ended up being slightly uncooperative.
Source terms from the bootstrap became wrapped as machine-independent
form. For various reasons, things worked anyway, except that
`--linklets` mode prints bytecode instead of S-expressions. Fix the
bootstrap implementation to cooperate correctly.

Don't discard expressions that will fail due to trying to make a
prefab struct type from a parent that isn't a prefab. Similarly, don't
discard a `make-struct-type` with a built-in property that has a
guard. Don't discard a `make-struct-type-property` with a literal
guard procedure that has the wrong arity.
Related to #2685
Adjust the makefile that ends up in <builddir> with `--enable-cs` or
`--enable-csdefault` (as opposed to `--enable-csonly`) so that `make
racketcs` doesn't imply `make racket3m` if `--enable-racket` has
supplied an existing Racket.
Also fix `make install-cs` related to GRacket for the case that Racket
3m/CGC isn't built.
Relevant to #2683
While a continuation is set up to avoid retaining runstacks, partly by
storing a prompt ID instead of a prompt record, prompt records can
remain on the C stack and get captured anyway. Mitigate that problem
by making the runstack link weak in some prompt record.
Racket CS doesn't have this problem, of course.
