4a8e480864 New mechanism to query GC parameters 2024-01-16 17:02:55 -03:00

d862da6d04 Optimizations for 'lua_rawgeti' and 'lua_rawseti' 
'lua_rawgeti' now uses "fast track"; 'lua_rawseti' still calls
'luaH_setint', but the latter was recoded to avoid extra overhead
when writing to the array part after 'alimit'.

12b6f610b0 Several tweaks in the garbage collector 
- back with step size in collectgarbage("step")
- adjustments in defaults for some GC parameters
- adjustments in 'luaO_codeparam'

e81f586001 Removed compatibility option LUA_COMPAT_GCPARAMS 
The meaning of different GC parameters changed, so there is point in
supporting old values for them. The new code simply ignores the
parameters when changing the GC mode, so the incompatibility is small.

e2cc179454 New option "setparms" for 'collectgarbage' 
The generational mode also uses the parameters for the incremental
mode in its major collections, so it should be easy to change those
parameters without having to change the GC mode.

ad0ea7813b GC parameters encoded as floating-point bytes 
This encoding brings more precision and a larger range for these
parameters.

4eda1acafa Cleaner protocol between 'lua_dump' and writer function 
'lua_dump' signals to the writer function the end of a dump, so that
is has more freedom when using the stack.

789e7acdea Major collections done incrementally 
Major collections do not need to "stop the world". Still pending:
criteria for shifts minor-major, shifts generational-incremental.

documents better where the code may need to handle those variants.

351ccd7332 Towards a new implementation of arrays 
The array part of a table wastes too much space, due to padding.
To avoid that, we need to store values in the array as something
different from a TValue. Therefore, the API for table access
should not assume that any value in a table lives in a *TValue.
This commit is the first step to remove that assumption: functions
luaH_get*, instead of returning a *TValue where the value lives,
receive a *TValue where to put the value being accessed.
(We still have to change the luaH_set* functions.)

'luaD_growstack' already checks that. This commit also fixes an
internal bug in 'luaD_growstack': a large 'n' could cause an arithmetic
overflow when computing 'needed'.

511d53a826 lua_settop/lua_pop closes to-be-closed variables 
The existence of 'lua_closeslot' is no reason for lua_pop not to close
to-be-closed variables too.  It is too error-prone for lua_pop not to
close tbc variables being popped from the stack.

4e47f81188 New implementation for to-be-closed variables 
To-be-closed variables are linked in their own list, embedded into the
stack elements. (Due to alignment, this information does not change
the size of the stack elements in most architectures.)  This new list
does not produce garbage and avoids memory errors when creating tbc
variables.

b07fc10e91 Allow yields inside '__close' metamethods 
Initial implementation to allow yields inside '__close' metamethods.
This current version still does not allow a '__close' metamethod
to yield when called due to an error. '__close' metamethods from
C functions also are not allowed to yield.

cc1692515e New API function 'lua_closeslot' 
Closing a to-be-closed variable with 'lua_settop' is too restrictive,
as it erases all slots above the variable. Moreover, it adds side
effects to 'lua_settop', which should be a fairly basic function.

b57574d6fb Keep memory errors as memory errors

error with the memory error message); error in external allocations
raises a memory error; memory errors in coroutines are re-raised
as memory errors.

themselves.
