The collector tries to use roughly the same amount of parallelism as
the number of active threads, but make sure that it doesn't fall back
to an ownership-mangling non-parallel collection if all but one place
happens to be stalled.
Make the exchange of objects by parallel sweepers --- which is needed
when an object being swept by one thread refers to an object owner by
another thread --- much simpler and slightly faster.
The original design of exchanging memory regions didn't really work
out, and it had degrenerated to essentially exchanging objects.
Explicitly exchanging objects instead of regions makes the GC simpler,
because received objects can be just added to the regular sweep stack,
and less additional space<->type correspondence is needed.
Fix mishandling of an expanded `if` where the test position is a
syntax object. The expander's compiler pass from expanded objects to
linkets knows that the syntax object isn't useful, but it tried to be
helpful by preserving the syntax object's content as quoted --- and
that content turns out not to be available, so the syntax object was
replaced by #f, instead.
Closes#3436
Rename definitions that are not exported and that are not used as
inferred function names. The rename is based on a hash of the
right-hand side, instead of being just the position of the definition
in the module, and that should help further reduce diffs in schemified
output after small changes to the source.
Instead of one big lock, have one big lock and one small lock for just
manipulating allocation state. This separation better reflects the
locking needs of parallel collection, where the main collecting thread
holds the one big lock, and helper threads need to take a different
lock while changing allocation state.
This commit also includes changes to cooperate better with LLVM's
thread sanitizer. It doesn't work for parallel collection, but it
seems to work otherwise and helped expose a missing lock and a
questionable use of a global variable.
This ensures that the moveq instruction is inside an IT block.
Backward compatible change - still builds on ARMv6 with Thumb.
This breakage is generally not noticeable on a RPi3 because, although the
CPU is ARMv7, it is generally running an ARMv6 OS.
Disable incremental promotion when backreferences are enabled,
otherwise the backreference list for a generation can have
references to younger-generation objects.
Casting a ptr to an integer of a different size causes a warning - this is only noticeable on 32bits. Fix this by using `TO_VOIDP` and `TO_PTR` helper macros.
This PR fixes two issues regarding disappeared-use in reqprov.rkt
1. Copy/preserve disappeared-use for all provide subforms instead
of only the first one. The following program doesn't have an arrow from
`struct-out` to `#lang racket` prior this PR, but it does after this PR.
#lang racket
(provide a? (struct-out a))
(struct a ())
2. Fix incorrect `disappeared-use` for `struct-out`: it is inappropriate
to check if an identifier is bound to a struct info in provide
pre-transformer because it would not be able to handle backlinks.
This PR moves the attachment from provide pre-transformer to provide
transformer, allowing Check Syntax to draw an arrow for the identifier
`abc` in:
#lang racket
(provide (struct-out abc))
(struct abc ())
<tt> is a "non-conforming feature".
It is "entirely obsolete, and must not be used by authors"
as specified in https://www.w3.org/TR/html51/obsolete.html#elementdef-tt.
This PR replaces <tt> with either <code> or <kbd> as suggested
in the above recommendation. Practically, it improves accessibility
of the page, allowing screen readers to understand the document
more accurately.
Note that both <code> and <kbd> are recognized in older browsers already,
so this PR doesn't cause any incompatibility issue.
When focusing on a preference option, the status line
is supposed to change to the the preference's description.
However, because the variable that stores descriptions
is declared in a wrong scope, it results in an unbound id error
and nothing changes. This PR fixes the problem.
Small fixes to enable LTO compilation
To do this in racket/src:
./configure CFLAGS="-O3 -march=native -flto"
LDFLAGS="-O3 -march=native -flto"
--prefix=...
One fix deals with variable `errnum` that might be used uninitialized.
The other is to ensure that `boot_file_data` is marked as used
otherwise, it is removed by LTO and ends up crashing build
in `embed-boot.rkt`.
