make_static_string()
by Stephen R. van den Berg 20 Mar '21

20 Mar '21

Is it allowed/supported to put a string created with make_static_string() into an svalue and then give it to say the write() method of an arbitrary Stdio object? -- Stephen.

Shuffler revisited (2)
by Stephen R. van den Berg 18 Mar '21

18 Mar '21

In an attempt to prepare the Shuffler for use on the database connection in the pgsql module, I delved back into the Shuffler code again. This time I achieved 99.9% comprehension of the code. The result is a considerable rewrite of the inner loop. The rewrite was necessary because: a. The shuffle-source-management still had memory leaks. b. The size of the buffer writes was arbitrarily large (depending on the input block size). c. The way wrap_callback results were stored resulted in (only) mostly-correct data. d. The data of sources were used ever so briefly *after* getting freed. -- Stephen.

debugger-wip merge
by H William Welliver 16 Mar '21

16 Mar '21

Hello all- I’m planning on merging the work in progress debugger into master in the coming days. A prior version of this code has been reviewed and it is my understanding from Mateusz that there were 1 or 2 unaddressed items. I’ve addressed one (handling of multiple offsets for a given line) and don’t think the other item (in what file a particular set of functions belongs) makes sense at the moment, based on my read of the code. I wouldn’t however, be opposed to someone who feels more strongly about relocating it. I’ve made a few other minor enhancements to the C-level code that I don’t think negatively impact the outcome of that review. The first thing to know is that the debugger actually works[1]. My plan is to split the code into 2 or 3 parts: the C-level bits, the debugger itself which lives in lib/modules/Debug/Debugger.pmod and the bootstrap code in master.pike. When it lands, I’ll also have some instructions for how to try it out. My base assumptions (hopefully obvious but I’ll state them nonetheless): 1. When not enabled at runtime, it is intended that the code is not in the path of execution. 2. When enabled, the code should not cause aborts. 3. "Surprise" behavior is possible, some of which is known[2] and some not. 4. Performance is assumed to be impacted while debugging. Attempts to minimize the negative impact are obviously of interest. 5. Everything here is private/uncommitted and subject to change should something better rear its head. Some caveats: 0. This is very much work in progress, but I commit to minimize impact to others and get things to a point where that’s no longer the case as quickly as possible. I felt it important to get this code out in front of more people to look at and try. Specifically: 1. I’ve made a good faith effort to not commit known bugs, but I’m sure there are some and will investigate any problems identified. 2. There is vestigial code that I’ve left in place to ease the inevitable troubleshooting and confidence building that are coming. The plan is to remove them when they are no longer needed. 3. There is behavior that might be pared back (specifically related to breakpoints across a range of offsets, which may not be needed). 4. The Pike level code is where most of the action currently is, and is most likely to see major change. 5. Semi-related: there /seems/ to be a problem in LiveBacktraceFrame in that argument names aren’t available, and it appears they’re not making it out of the compiler intact. I haven’t been able to track down the source of that problem. Assistance would be welcome. If anyone sees a major problem in any of this, please let me know.

Did someone already try to ask someone at Lysator?

Did someone already try to ask someone at Lysator to push the power button? I have, amongst other things, a fix for a fundamental data corruption bug in Stdio.Buffer which I fixed in master and in 8.0 waiting to be uploaded to the central git repository. -- Stephen.

Timezone.Runtime_timezone_compiler memory footprint
by Stephen R. van den Berg 11 Mar '21

11 Mar '21

I have been eliminating some memory leaks from the Shuffler, while running my SPike webserver. Things seem to have stabilised now. However, when inspecting the memory footprint, I see the dump at the bottom of this mail. Now, in the grand scheme of things, 850.4kB might not be a lot, but I'm still wondering why it is still being occupied. I mean, I get that because I've been accessing timezones somewhere (though I'm still wondering where exactly), it needs to compile the current timezone. However, after having done that, the timezone compiler should have been freed, and it appears that it is not. Any clues as to why this is happening? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Object Clones Memory Loc ---------------------------------------------------------------------- imezone.Runtime_timezone_compiler 1 850.4k Timezone.pmod:541 s.Builtin()->multi_string_replace 32 282.1k builtin.cmod:4347 Runtime_timezone_compiler()->Zone 386 151.7k Timezone.pmod:1065 Sql.pgsql_util.conxiin 1 96.5k pgsql_util.pmod:404 Runtime_timezone_compiler()->Rule 139 86.0k Timezone.pmod:811 master()->dirnode 29 81.6k master.pike:2574 MIME.ext_to_media_type 1 65.4k ext_to_media_type.pmod:1659 master 1 47.9k master.pike Standards.ASN1.Types.Identifier 200 42.8k Types.pmod:626 master()->joinnode 30 36.7k master.pike:3013 Parser._parser.HTML 3 24.8k parser.c:196 _static_modules.Builtin()->Search 1 16.1k pike_search.c:188 piler()->__class_66275_0_line_791 1 15.5k Timezone.pmod:792 Standards.PKCS.Identifiers 1 10.0k Identifiers.pmod Calendar.Language.cEN 1 6.3k Language.pmod:525 /main()->SPike 1 5.5k spike:64 Nettle.BufferedCipher()->_Buffer 49 4.2k cipher.cmod:533 sites.pmod 1 4.1k sites.pmod managebackground.pmod 1 3.6k managebackground.pmod Sql.pgsql_util.proxy 1 3.2k pgsql_util.pmod:1965 .Builtin()->single_string_replace 18 2.3k builtin.cmod:4507 Stdio.FILE 4 2.3k module.pmod:1927 Crypto.DH.Parameters 17 2.3k DH.pmod:71 TP.Server.Request()->OutputBuffer 1 2.2k Request.pike:908 Regexp.SimpleRegexp 10 2.2k Regexp.pmod:48 Sql.pgsql_util 1 2.1k pgsql_util.pmod _static_modules._Stdio()->Buffer 4 2.1k buffer.cmod:77 _static_modules.Builtin()->mutex 14 1.9k threads.c:4690 es.Builtin()->DefaultBackendClass 4 1.8k backend.cmod:3253 Pike.Lazy 13 1.8k Lazy.pmod:19 Calendar.ISO 2 1.5k ISO.pmod:11 atic_modules.Builtin()->thread_id 5 1.4k threads.c:4816 /main()->SPike()->regex 12 1.4k spike:459 /main()->SPike()->singleresponse 2 1.2k spike:578 /main()->SPike()->fromfilesystem 7 1.2k spike:610 Thread.Queue 3 1.1k Thread.pmod:241 Stdio.File 2 1.1k module.pmod:188 _static_modules.Gmp()->mpz 4 0.9k mpz_glue.c:2476 Val.Inet 9 0.9k Inet.pike les.Builtin()->Backend()->CallOut 4 0.8k backend.cmod:509 atic_modules.Builtin()->condition 6 0.8k threads.c:4766 _static_modules._Stdio()->Fd 3 0.8k file.cmod:282 Nettle.BlockCipher()->_IGE 7 0.7k cipher.cmod:1606 Nettle.BlockCipher()->_PCBC 7 0.7k cipher.cmod:1450 Nettle.BlockCipher()->_CBC 7 0.7k cipher.cmod:1124 Nettle.BlockCipher()->_OFB 7 0.7k cipher.cmod:3196 Nettle.BlockCipher()->_ABC 7 0.7k cipher.cmod:1987 Nettle.BlockCipher()->_CFB 7 0.7k cipher.cmod:2367 Standards.ASN1.Types.MetaExplicit 6 0.7k Types.pmod:1071 Nettle.BlockCipher()->_CTR 7 0.6k cipher.cmod:2825 odules.Builtin()->pike_trampoline 6 0.5k builtin.cmod:7330 Calendar.Rule.Timezone 5 0.5k Rule.pmod:19 destructed 0 0.0k - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Stephen.

BA_INIT_ALIGNED
by Marcus Comstedt (ACROSS) (Hail Ilpalazzo!) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 08 Mar '21

08 Mar '21

In August 2013, Arne added support for alignment to block_allocator. In doing so, he also introduced a dependency on memalign/posix_memalign. I was planning on rewriting this support to work without memalign, but then I started looking for places which _use_ this functionality, and found none. Pike seems to build just fine without it. If it's dead code, maybe it's better to just remove it?
