This is my patch patch.1n for perl5.001.perl-5.001n
To apply, change to your perl directory, run the command above, then
apply with
patch -p1 -N < thispatch.
This is a consolidation patch. It contains many of the most commonly
applied or agreed-to patches that have been circulating since
patch.1m.
It also changes the 'unofficial patchlevel' in perl.c.
There are some problems (see items marked with '***').
I will attempt to address those in a patch.1o in a few days.
This patch contains the following packages:
My Jumbo Configure patch vs. 1m, with subsequent patches 1, 2, and 3.
Mainly, this provides easier use of local libraries, documents
the installation process in a new INSTALL file, moves important
questions towards the beginning, and improves detection of
signal names (mostly for Linux).
xsubpp-1.922.
Patches from Larry:
eval "1" memory leak patch (as modified by GSAR to apply to 5.001m).

This will collect +information on the execution time of a Perl script and of the subs in that +script. This information can be used to determine which subroutines are +using the most time and which subroutines are being called most often. This +information can also be used to create an execution graph of the script, +showing subroutine relationships. + +To use this package the PERL5DB environment variable must be set to the +following value: + + PERL5DB="use Devel::DProf;" + export PERL5DB + +To profile a Perl script run the perl interpreter with the B<-d> debugging +switch. The profiler uses the debugging hooks. So to profile script +"test.pl" the following command should be used: + + perl5 -d test.pl + +When the script terminates the profiler will dump the profile information +to a file called I<tmon.out>. The supplied I<dprofpp> tool can be used to +interpret the information which is in that profile. The following command +will print the top 15 subroutines which used the most time: + + dprofpp + +To print an execution graph of the subroutines in the script use the +following command: + + dprofpp -T + +Consult the "dprofpp" manpage for other options. + +=head1 BUGS + +If perl5 is invoked with the B<-w> (warnings) flag then Devel::DProf will +cause a large quantity of warnings to be printed. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<perl>, L<dprofpp>, times(2) + +=cut + +package DB; + +# So Devel::DProf knows where to drop tmon.out. +chop($pwd = `pwd`); +$tmon = "$pwd/tmon.out"; + +# This sub is replaced by an XS version after the profiler is bootstrapped. +sub sub { +# print "nonXS DBsub($sub)\n"; + $single = 0; # disable DB single-stepping + if( wantarray ){ + @a = &$sub; + @a; + } + else{ + $a = &$sub; + $a; + } +} + +# This sub is needed during startup. +sub DB { +# print "nonXS DBDB\n"; +} + + +require DynaLoader; +@Devel::DProf::ISA = qw(DynaLoader); + +bootstrap Devel::DProf; + +1; |
