Roberto Ierusalimschy c1dc08e8e8 Length of external strings must fit in Lua integer 
(As the length of any string in Lua.)

Roberto Ierusalimschy ef28e5f789 Removed 'int' size limit for string.rep 2024-06-21 16:26:49 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy ec65ab878e Removed 'int' size limit for pack/unpack 2024-06-21 14:55:12 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy e24ce8c2b3 lua_writestring & co. moved to llimits.h 
They don't need to be visible by clients of Lua.
 2024-06-21 12:29:08 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy a08d82eb13 llimits.h being used by all Lua code 
The definitions in llimits.h are useful not only for the core. That
header only defines types and '#define's, so libs and core still do
not share any real code/data.
 2024-06-20 14:46:06 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 55ac40f859 Cleaning of llimits.h 
Several definitions that don't need to be "global" (that is, that
concerns only specific parts of the code) moved out of llimits.h,
to more appropriate places.

Roberto Ierusalimschy d51022bf9e Bug: overlapping assignments 
ISO C forbids assignment of a union field to another field of the same
union.
 2024-06-12 15:56:13 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy bb7bb5944c More disciplined use of 'errno' 
Set errno to zero before calling any function where we may use its
errno, and check errno for zero before using it (as functions may not
set it even in error). The code assumes that no function will put
garbage on errno (although ISO C allows that): If any function during an
operation set errno, and the operation result in an error, assume that
errno has something to say.
 2024-06-12 15:50:31 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 94b503d95e Encoding of table indices (hres) must use C indices 
As the encoding of array indices is (~index), 0 is encoded as -1 and
INT_MAX is encoded as INT_MIN.
 2024-06-10 12:09:35 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy bdc85357aa Bug: Active-lines for stripped vararg functions 
Lua seg. faults when asked to create the 'activelines' table for a
vararg function with no debug information.
 2024-06-04 17:27:13 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy b291008cc2 Manual for 'string.format' lists what it accepts 
Instead of listing what it does not accept, which is always relative.

Roberto Ierusalimschy 814213b65f utf8.offset returns also final position of character 
'utf8.offset' returns two values: the initial and the final position
of the given character.

Roberto Ierusalimschy 262dc5729a Details 
Corrections in comments and manual. Added note in the manual about
local variables in the REPL.

Roberto Ierusalimschy 9d985db7bb New year (2024) 2024-05-02 12:03:30 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 0897c0a428 'getmode' renamed to 'getMode' 
The name 'getmode' conficts with a function from BSD, defined
in <unistd.h>. Although 'lbaselib.c' cannot include that header,
'onelua.c' can.
 2024-04-08 14:28:26 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 5edacafcfa Yet another representation for arrays 
This "linear" representation (see ltable.h for details) has worse
locality than cells, but the simpler access code seems to compensate
that.
 2024-04-05 15:35:11 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 3507c3380f Small simplification in 'findloader' 
Instead of allways adding a prefix for the next message, and then
removing it if there is no message, add the prefix after each message.
 2024-04-03 16:01:23 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 88a50ffa71 Fixed dangling 'StkId' in 'luaV_finishget' 
Bug introduced in 05932567.
 2024-03-29 15:10:50 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 86a8e74824 Details 2024-03-28 17:11:33 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 9fa63a6268 Some 'unsigned int' changed to 'unsigned' 
'unsigned int' is too long sometimes. (We already write 'long' instead
of 'long int'...)
 2024-03-22 14:06:11 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 0593256707 'luaH_get' functions return tag of the result 
Undoing previous commit. Returning TValue increases code size without
any visible gains. Returning the tag is a little simpler than returning
a special code (HOK/HNOTFOUND) and the tag is useful by itself in
some cases.
 2024-03-21 11:23:21 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy ce6f5502c9 'luaH_get' functions return 'TValue' 
Instead of receiving a parameter telling them where to put the result
of the query, these functions return the TValue directly. (That is,
they return a structure.)
 2024-03-18 15:56:32 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy ba71060381 Removed "bulk operations" 
Negligible performance gains don't justify extra complexity.
 2024-03-15 11:23:35 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 3823fc6c81 Added "bulk operations" to arrays 
A few operations on arrays can be performed "in bulk", treating all
tags of a cell as a simple (or a few) word(s).
 2024-03-15 11:01:34 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 52aa2b5d24 Details 
- 'unsigned int' -> 'unsigned'
- Some explicit casts to avoid warnings
- Test avoids printing the value of 'fail' (which may not be nil)
 2024-03-13 09:20:34 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy cc2b66c856 Removed type 'varint_t' 
size_t should be big enough to count the number of strings in a dump.
(And, by definition, it is big enough to count the length of each
string.)
 2024-03-13 09:16:51 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 65b07dd53d API asserts for illegal pops of to-be-closed variables 2024-03-11 14:05:06 -03:00

Roberto Ierusalimschy 165389b27b New interface to function 'luaL_openselectedlibs' 
Instead of preloading all non-loaded libraries, there is another
mask to select which libraries to preload.
 2024-02-15 11:17:39 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy c8121ce34b Revising code for Varint encoding in dumps 
- Usign lua_Unsigned to count strings.
- Varint uses a type large enough both for size_t and lua_Unsigned.
- Most-Significant Bit 0 means last byte, to conform to common usage.
- (unrelated) Change in macro 'getaddr' so that multiplication is
  by constants.
 2024-02-12 15:16:11 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 7360f8d0fd Removed deprecated function 'setcstacklimit' 2024-02-07 14:20:43 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 6063c47031 Field 'lastfree' changed (back) to 'Node *' 
Due to allignment, it is already using the space of a pointer, and
a pointer generates slightly simpler code.
 2024-02-07 13:56:39 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 0c9bec0d38 Better handling of size limit when resizing a table 
Avoid silent conversions from int to unsigned int when calling
'luaH_resize'; avoid silent conversions from lua_Integer to int in
'table.create'; MAXASIZE corrected for the new implementation of arrays;
'luaH_resize' checks explicitly whether new size respects MAXASIZE.
(Even constructors were bypassing that check.)

Roberto Ierusalimschy b34a97a4af Small optimization in 'luaH_psetint' 
It is quite common to write to empty but existing cells in the array
part of a table, so 'luaH_psetint' checks for the common case that
the table doesn't have a newindex metamethod to complete the write.
 2024-01-25 13:44:49 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 3e9dbe143d New function 'table.create' 
Creates a table preallocating memory. (It just exports to Lua the API
function 'lua_createtable'.)

Roberto Ierusalimschy 4a8e480864 New mechanism to query GC parameters 2024-01-16 17:02:55 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 17e0c29d9b Clear interface between references and predefines 
The reference system has a defined way to add initial values to the
table where it operates.
 2024-01-15 11:31:49 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 8eb0abc9db Removed uses of LUA_NUMTAGS 
That constant was already deprecated (see commit 6aabf4b15e).
 2024-01-13 18:10:50 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 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'.
 2024-01-12 15:50:51 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy e288c5a918 Bug: Yielding in a hook stops in the wrong instruction 
Yielding in a hook must decrease the program counter, because it already
counted an instruction that, in the end, was not executed. However,
that decrement should be done only when about to restart the thread.
Otherwise, inspecting the thread with the debug library shows it one
instruction behind of where it really is.

Roberto Ierusalimschy 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'
 2023-12-27 12:09:11 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 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.
 2023-12-22 14:57:43 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 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.
 2023-12-22 14:48:07 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 5853c37a83 Bug: Buffer overflow in string concatenation 
Even if the string fits in size_t, the whole size of the TString object
can overflow when we add the header.
 2023-12-21 13:37:51 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy ad0ea7813b GC parameters encoded as floating-point bytes

Roberto Ierusalimschy 4eda1acafa Cleaner protocol between 'lua_dump' and writer function 
'lua_dump' signals to the writer function the end of a dump, so that

Roberto Ierusalimschy ad73b33224 Check minor->major made at the end of a minor cycle 
It does not make sense to wait for another cycle to decide when much of

Roberto Ierusalimschy 925fe8a0f2 First criteria for shifts minor<->major 2023-12-07 15:45:11 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 789e7acdea Major collections done incrementally 
Major collections do not need to "stop the world". Still pending:
criteria for shifts minor-major, shifts generational-incremental.
 2023-12-06 10:49:56 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 74b4013538 Removed macro 'changeage' 
It is simpler to use always 'setage'. The saving from 'changeage'
is too irrelevant.
 2023-12-01 16:42:01 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy b719ff9399 Removed parameter in 'collectgarbage("step")' 
A call to 'collectgarbage("step")' always performs one GC basic step.
 2023-12-01 16:38:28 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 35a2fed2d1 Removed deprecated options in 'lua_gc' 
Options 'setpause' and 'setstepmul' were deprecated in Lua 5.4.

Roberto Ierusalimschy 25cd3d377e Buffer in 'luai_makeseed' measured in bytes

Roberto Ierusalimschy eabf425c76 Correct anchoring and GC barriers in 'loadString' 
Call to 'luaH_setint' could call the GC with the string unanchored.
Moreover, previously saved strings were being assigned to the prototype

Roberto Ierusalimschy 19afd91687 Solving merge issue with use of tables in dump/undump 
The use of tables in dump/undump to reuse strings did not exist in
the version that changed the representation of arrays, so it was not
corrected for the new API for tables.

Roberto Ierusalimschy 6b51133a98 Thread stacks resized in the atomic phase 
Although stack resize can be a little expensive, it seems unusual to
have too many threads needing resize during one GC cycle. On the other
hand, the change allows full collections to skip the propagate phase,
going straight from a pause to the atomic phase.
