controversial, unless I damaged something in the process of integrating
them with other recent changes. the user's guide and release notes
have been updated as well to reflect the changes of interest to end
users.
- the body of load-library is now wrapped in a $pass-time with
to show the time spent loading libraries separately from the time
spent in expand.
syntax.ss
- interpret now plays the pass-time game
interpret.ss
- added compile-time-value? predicate and
compile-time-value-value accessor
syntax.ss, primdata.ss,
8.ms, primvars.ms, root-experr*
- $pass-stats now returns accurrate stats for the currently timed
pass.
7.ss
- compile-whole-program and compile-whole-library now propagate
recompile info from the named wpo file to the object file
to support maybe-compile-program and maybe-compile-library in
the case where compile-whole-{program,library} overwrites the
original object file.
compile.ss,
7.ms, mat.ss, primvars.ms
- replaced the ancient and unusable bintar with one that creates
a useful tarball for binary installs
bintar
- generated Mf-install InstallBin (InstallLib, InstallMan) now
correctly indirects through InstallPrefix if the --installbin
(--installlib, --installman) configure flag is not present.
src/configure
- removed definition of generate-procedure-source-information
patch.ss
- guardian tconc cells are now allocated in generation 0 in the hope
that they can be released more quickly.
gc.c
- added ftype-guardian syntax: (ftype-guardian A) creates a new
guardian for ftype pointers of type A, the first base field (or
one of the first base fields in the case of unions) of which must
be a word-sized integer with native endianness representing a
reference count. ftype pointers are registered with and retrieved
from the guardian just like objects are registered with and
retrieved from any guardian. the difference is that the garbage
collector decrements the reference count before resurrecting an
ftype pointer and resurrects only those whose reference counts
become zero, i.e., are ready for deallocation.
ftype.ss, cp0.ss, cmacros.ss, cpnanopass.ss, prims.ss, primdata.ss,
gc.c,
4.ms, root-experr*
- fixed a bug in automatic recompilation handling of missing include
files specified with absolute pathnames or pathnames starting with
"./" or "..": was erroring out in file-modification-time with a
file-not-found or other exception rather than recompiling.
syntax.ss,
7.ms, root-experr*, patch*
- changed inline vector-for-each and string-for-each code to
put the last call to the procedure in tail position, as was
already done for the library definitions and for the inline
code for for-each.
cp0.ss,
5_4.ms, 5_6.ms
- the compiler now generates better inline code for the bytevector
procedure. instead of one byte memory write for each argument,
it writes up to 4 (32-bit machines) or 8 (64-bit machines) bytes
at a time, which almost always results in fewer instructions and
fewer writes.
cpnanopass.ss,
bytevector.ms
- packaged unchanging implicit reader arguments into a single record
to reduce the number of arguments.
read.ss
- recoded run-vector to handle zero-length vectors. it appears
we're not presently generating empty vectors (representing empty
groups), but the fasl format permits them.
7.ss
original commit: 7be1d190de7171f74a1ee71e348d3e6310392686
An attachment continuation link can be a 1-shot continuation, but
the existing 1-short continuation implementation tends to work
less well than mutishot continuations. An opportunistic 1-shot
continuation is like a multi-shot continuation, but if it is
called from a stack that is adjacent to the continuation, then
the stack is merged with the continuation's stack.
original commit: ea1eb3c5192d644ad4c4cbf755bcb6fd438cc364
- fixed a bug in which instantiating a static foreign-callable code object
fails with an invalid memory reference because the collector has
discarded its relocation information. foreign-callable code objects
are now flagged as "templates", and the collector now refuses to
discard relocation information for code objects marked as templates
when copying them to the static generation.
cmacros.ss, cpnanopass.ss,
gc.c,

still usable for bootstrapping)
boot/*/*.h

Also adds `get-initial-thread`, since threa values are useful with
`compute-size[-increments]`.
Changes the compiler to inline `weak-pair?` and `ephemeron-pair?`,
since that provides better performance for `compute-size-increments`.
original commit: 57d0cc13f8e932972cba3837b4f54e9c86786091
When starting a new segment to keep an object on a single segment,
terminate the old one with e forwarding marker.
original commit: 1f1db6d3d2cd930455a3592f2d76a465b30a5592
When writing a fasl stream, add extra graph points as needed
to limit recursive reading to about 500 non-tail recursions.
original commit: a6759efdc6ac68e45ec8755a5fe9b75038e173a5
Use `vfasl-convert-file` to convert to the vfasl format, something
like this:
(vfasl-convert-file "orig/petite.boot" "new/petite.boot" '())
(vfasl-convert-file "orig/scheme.boot" "new/scheme.boot" '("petite"))
(vfasl-convert-file "orig/racket.boot" "new/racket.boot" '("petite" "scheme"))

To support a more minimal build enviornment, offer the possibility of
building without "curses.h" and "libcurses" (which disables the
expeditor, although the expeditor's code is still included).
original commit: 9a17f73e6fc5e117c19333e15c6afb797dd6b08f
- when thread_get_room exhausts the local allocation area, it now
goes through a common path with S_get_more_room to allocate a new
local allocation area when appropriate. this can greatly reduce
the use of global allocation (and the number of tc mutex acquires
in threaded builds) when a lot of small objects are allocated by
C code with no intervening Scheme-side allocation or dirty writes.
alloc.c, types.h, externs.h
original commit: 93dfa7674a95837e5a22bc622fecc50b0224f60d
The `object-references` function is intended to support debugging of
memory leaks by providing a mapping from each live object to the
object that retained it.
original commit: 61f6602b7e6c388c529f3c5995dcf71a7c42e005
A program can use `make-arity-wrapper-procedure` to synthesize a
function that reports a given arity mask (without calling `compile`).
In addition, `set-arity-wrapper-procedure!` suports modifying the
implementation of a synthesized procedure. Although similar
functionality could be achieved with `(lambda args (apply (unbox proc)
args))`, an arity wrapper procedure can dispatch to another procedure
without allocating a list for the arguments.
The interpreter now uses an internal variant of arity wrappers to
cooperate with `procedure-arity-mask`.

Embarrassingly, I committed this change on the wrong branch initially.

original commit: d8c270403121547101cb523cc1f80a569dbb0378
commonizatio pass and support for specifying default record
equal and hash procedures:
- more staid and consistent Mf-cross main target
Mf-cross
- cpletrec now replaces the incoming prelexes with new ones so
that it doesn't have to alter the flags on the incoming ones, since
the same expander output is passed through the compiler twice while
compiling a file with macro definitions or libraries. we were
getting away without this just by luck.
cpletrec.ss
- pure? and ivory? now return #t for a primref only if the prim is
declared to be a proc, since some non-proc prims are mutable, e.g.,
$active-threads and $collect-request-pending.
cp0.ss
- $error-handling-mode? and $eol-style? are now properly declared to
be procs rather than system state variables.
primdata.ss
- the new pass $check-prelex-flags verifies that prelex referenced,
multiply-referenced, and assigned flags are set when they
should be. (it doesn't, however, complain if a flag is set
when it need not be.) when the new system parameter
$enable-check-prelex-flags is set, $check-prelex-flags is
called after each major pass that produces Lsrc forms to verify
that the flags are set correctly in the output of the pass.
this parameter is unset by default but set when running the
mats.
cprep.ss, back.ss, compile.ss, primdata.ss,
mats/Mf-base
- removed the unnecessary set of prelex referenced flag from the
build-ref routines when we've just established that it is set.
syntax.ss, compile.ss
- equivalent-expansion? now prints differences to the current output
port to aid in debugging.
mat.ss
- the nanopass that patches calls to library globals into calls to
their local counterparts during whole-program optimization now
creates new prelexes and sets the prelex referenced, multiply
referenced, and assigned flags on the new prelexes rather than
destructively setting flags on the incoming prelexes. The
only known problems this fixes are (1) the multiply referenced
flag was not previously being set for cross-library calls when
it should have been, resulting in overly aggressive inlining
of library exports during whole-program optimization, and (2)
the referenced flag could sometimes be set for library exports
that aren't actually used in the final program, which could
prevent some unreachable code from being eliminated.
compile.ss
- added support for specifying default record-equal and
record-hash procedures.
primdata.ss, cmacros.ss, cpnanopass.ss, prims.ss, newhash.ss,
gc.c,
record.ms
- added missing call to relocate for subset-mode tc field, which
wasn't burning us because the only valid non-false value, the
symbol system, is in the static generation after the initial heap
compaction.
gc.c
- added a lambda-commonization pass that runs after the other
source optimizations, particularly inlining, and a new parameter
that controls how hard it works. the value of commonization-level
ranges from 0 through 9, with 0 disabling commonization and 9
maximizing it. The default value is 0 (disabled). At present,
for non-zero level n, the commonizer attempts to commonize
lambda expressions consisting of 2^(10-n) or more nodes.
commonization of one or more lambda expressions requires that
they have identical structure down to the leaf nodes for quote
expressions, references to unassigned variables, and primitives.
So that various downstream optimizations aren't disabled, there
are some additional restrictions, the most important of which
being that call-position expressions must be identical. The
commonizer works by abstracting the code into a helper that
takes the values of the differing leaf nodes as arguments.
the name of the helper is formed by concatenating the names of
the original procedures, separated by '&', and this is the name
that will show up in a stack trace. The source location will
be that of one of the original procedures. Profiling inhibits
commonization, because commonization requires profile source
locations to be identical.
cpcommonize.ss (new), compile.ss, interpret.ss, cprep.ss,
primdata.ss, s/Mf-base,
mats/Mf-base
- cpletrec now always produces a letrec rather than a let for
single immutable lambda bindings, even when not recursive, for
consistent expand/optimize output whether the commonizer is
run or not.
cpletrec.ss,
record.ms
- trans-make-ftype-pointer no longer generates a call to
$verify-ftype-address if the address expression is a call to
ftype-pointer-address.

original commit: 89885b73d679759de9c62bab0b407318df123d6f
Add optional beginning-line and beginning-column components to a
source object, so that line and column information can be recorded
independent of the file. Add `locate-source-object-source` to use
the recorded information. Add a cache for `locate-source` as enabled by
the `use-cache?` optional argument, which can avoid compilation times
that are quadratic in the number of `let-values` or `define-values`
forms.

Revert the use of ephemeron pairs in weak hashtables, since the
difference is visible via guardians. Add hashtable based on ephemerons
