- `MRB_WITHOUT_FLOAT` => `MRB_NO_FLOAT`
- `MRB_USE_FLOAT` => `MRB_USE_FLOAT32`
The former is to use `USE_XXX` naming convention. The latter is to make
sure `float` is 32bit float and not floating point number in general.
Changes made after `setjmp()` are destroyed and need reassignment.
This problem is now caused by the addition of the `OP_JUW` instruction.
When actually building on FreeBSD 12.1 with `clang10 -fsanitize=address`, mrbtest "NameError#name [15.2.31.2.1]" is failed.
However, qualifying `pc` with `volatile` slows down significantly and increases the object code.
Suppress them by qualifying only the variables that restore `pc`.
When a global jump occurs, look at the catch handler table to determine where to jump.
In that case, `pc` already shows the following instruction, but since the table shows `begin_offset ... end_offset`, the comparison is done with `begin_offset < pc && pc <= end_offset`.
If there is a corresponding handler, move `pc` to `handler.target_offset` and continue running the VM.
When a global jump across `ensure` is made by `return`, `break`, `next`, `redo` and `retry`, the extended `RBreak` object saves and restores the C-level execution position.
This extended `RBreak` can have tag information, which makes it a pseudo coroutine (the "tag" mimics CRuby).
The implementation of pseudo coroutines by `RBreak` is summarized by `CHECKPOINT_RESTORE ... CHECKPOINT_MAIN ... CHECKPOINT_END` and `throw_tagged_break` / `unwind_ensure` macros.
The restart of processing is branched by `RBREAK_TAG_FOREACH(DISPATCH_CHECKPOINTS)`.
- Not only `rescue` blocks but also `ensure` blocks are now sandwiched between `OP_EXCEPT` and `OP_RAISEIF`.
- Remove the function `ecall()`.
It is no longer necessary to re-enter the VM to perform an "ensure block".
This will resolves#1888.
- Added instruction `OP_JUW` (Jump while UnWind).
It jumps unconditionally like `OP_JMP`, but searches the catch handler table and executes the ensure block.
Since it searches the catch handler table, it is much heavier than `OP_JMP`.
- `OP_EXCEPT` checks if `mrb->exc` is `NULL`, `MRB_TT_EXCEPTION` or
`MRB_TT_BREAK`.
If `mrb->exc` is `NULL`, it will be replaced with `nil`.
- If `OP_RAISE` is `nil`, it does nothing and the immediately
following instruction is executed (like `OP_NOP`).
Also, in case of `RBreak` object, it moves to the processing for
`break`.
With this change, the instruction name is changed from
`OP_RAISE` to `OP_RAISEIF`.
Changes:
- `pool format is completely replaced
- supported types: `STR`, `INT32`, `INT64`, `FLOAT`
- `FLOAT` may be replaced by binary representation in the future
- insert `NUL` after string literals in `mrb` files
- `irep->pool` no longer store values in `mrb_value`
- instead it stores in `mrb_pool_value`
- less allocation
- `mrb_irep` can be stored in ROM
- `mrb_convert_type`
- `mrb_check_convert_type`
Those function no longer take `tname` string representation of desired
type, and take method symbols instead of `const char*` names. This is
incompatible change. I hope no third-party gems use those functions.
Formerly, `__send__(*args)` modified `args` with `Array#shift`.
This bug affects optcarrot.
This changeset avoids the array destruction by using
`args = args[1, len-1]`.
Which loads 16bit integer to the register. The instruction number should
be reorder on massive instruction refactoring. The instruction is added
for `mruby/c` which had performance issue with `OP_EXT`. With this
instruction, `mruby/c` VM can just raise errors on `OP_EXT` extension
instructions.
`mrb_run` requires to push callinfo stack before calling, which is very
hard from outside of `vm.c`. So there should be virtually no correct
usage of the function, hence the cause of #4488. We removed it.
You can use `mrb_top_run(mrb, proc, self, 0)` instead of
`mrb_run(mrb, proc self)`.
If `mrb->jmp` is `NULL` and the function `mrb_funcall_with_block()` is
called, GC Arena is returned from the function with over-used.
- A normal (no global exodus) return will consume two GC Arena's.
- In the event of an exception, five GC Arena are consumed.
This patch reduces consumption in both cases to one.
We needed to preserve the original method name somewhere. We kept it in
the `env` structure pointed from aliased methods. #1457 and #1531 tried
to address this issue. But this patch is more memory efficient.
Limitation: this fix does not support `super` from methods defined by
`define_method`. This limitation may be addressed in the future, but
it's low priority.
