Make these tests use four-space indentation, and ensure that
each module is imported on its own line. (I intend to use the latter
to figure out which subdirectories' tests can be executed in parallel.)
These changes usually move code to different lines. For the debugger tests,
specify the new line numbers in .inp files and expect them in .exp files.
The hand-written C unify and compare predicates for tuples did not preserve
deep profiler invariants correctly across the recursive unify/compare of
tuple arguments. I tried to do so, and failed. Instead, implement the
predicates in Mercury so the compiler can perform the deep profiling
transformation on them. Bug #3.
A micro-benchmark on my machine is about twice as fast in asm_fast.gc
after this patch, and about the same in hlc.gc. The change to the
high-level C backend is only to reduce code duplication.
library/library.m:
Add foreign-exported predicates to take the place of `io.init_state'
and `io.finalize_state' as overall initialization/finalization
predicates.
library/builtin.m:
Add `unify_tuple', `compare_tuple', `compare_rep_tuple' predicates.
Add initializer which sets `MR_special_pred_hooks' to point to those
predicates.
Delete unused predicates `call_rtti_generic_unify',
`call_rtti_generic_compare'.
Reorder some code.
library/io.m:
Add `io.finalize_state' to hidden interface.
Delete foreign exports for `io.init_state' and `io.finalize_state'.
Reorder some code.
runtime/mercury_ho_call.c:
runtime/mercury_ho_call.h:
Add a global variable `MR_special_pred_hooks' for the library to
set up during initialisation.
Add `tailcall' macros for use by `mercury_unify_compare_body.h'.
Rename `tailcall_user_pred' to `tailcall_tci_pred'.
Call the new unify/compare predicates in the high-level C
backend via `MR_special_pred_hooks'.
Delete `unify_tuples' and `compare_tuples' for the high-level C
and call the Mercury predicates set in `MR_special_pred_hooks'.
runtime/mercury_unify_compare_body.h:
Delete the unify and compare code for tuples in the low-level C
backend. Jump to the Mercury predicates set in
`MR_special_pred_hooks' instead.
Add some comments.
compiler/elds_to_erlang.m:
runtime/mercury_init.h:
runtime/mercury_wrapper.c:
util/mkinit.c:
Conform to the library initializer/finalizer change.
tests/hard_coded/Mmakefile:
tests/hard_coded/tuple_test2.exp
tests/hard_coded/tuple_test2.m:
Add test case.
NEWS:
Announce the change.
