* The *.PL scripts in utils/ have a dependency on Cwd in lib.Nicholas Clark2010-10-051-2/+7
| | | | | This has not been spotted because they have a dependency on $(plextract) which in turn depends on $(dynamic_ext).
* [perl #73534] Bigrat segfaults on irrational numbersFather Chrysostomos2010-10-044-3/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | aka [rt.cpan.org #55767] segfault on sqrt(2) with bigrat The problem seems to be in &Math::BigInt::objectify. It doesn’t try to convert the number object into the right class if $upgrade is defined. The attached patch changes it to make sure it belongs to the calling class or to the $upgrade class. Here is a ‘one’-liner to trigger the same bug without bigrat: perl -Ilib -MMath::BigInt=upgrade,Math::BigFloat \ -MMath::BigFloat=upgrade,Math::BigMouse -le \ '@Math::BigMouse::ISA = Math::BigFloat; print sqrt Math::BigInt->new(2)'

* CPAN RT 34182 (Locale::Maketext) - Don't unnecessarily localize $@.Todd Rinaldo2010-10-044-38/+78
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Do it in scope only so die messages fall through when desired. Previously, there was test code to make sure $@ was not modified when maketext is called, but if the caller wraps maketext in an eval, then it's going to be modified anyways to '' at the least. If the caller does not wrap a maketext call in an eval and maketext dies, then hiding the $@ simply confuses the person debugging as to what went wrong. We do however backup/restore $@ so that it does not break any code that looks might use $@ after a successful call to maketext. eval {...} $lm->maketext($@); do_something_else($@); In the above example, $@ would be the same when passed to do_something_else
* [perl #45133] -0.0 has variable Boolean valueFather Chrysostomos2010-10-043-4/+26

* stop map,grep leaking temps [perl #48004]David Mitchell2010-10-043-3/+83
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The former behaviour of map and grep was to never free any temps. Thus for large lists (and even worse, nested maps), the tmps stack could grow very large. For all cases expect list-context map, the fix is easy: just do a FREETMPS at the end of each iteration. The list-context map however, needs to accumulate a list of temporaries over the course of the iterations, and finally return that list to the caller (which is responsible for freeing them). We get round this by, at the end of each iteration, directly manipulating the tmps stack to free everything *except* the values to be returned. To make this efficient, we splice in the returned tmp items at the base of the stack frame, move PL_tmps_floor above them, then do a FREETMPS (so they may appear twice on the temps stack, but initially only get freed once).

* Further clarification on indirect filehandlesA. Sinan Unur2010-10-041-1/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A recent discussion on Stackoverflow.com indicated to me that there is some potential for confusion in the "Indirect Filehandles" section in perlopentut.pod. See comments to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3661161/writing-a-macro-in-perl/3661239#36612 39 The attached patch is my attempt at clarifying that indirect filehandles are closed when there are no more references to them rather than simply when the end of the current lexical scope is reached. I also added an example of returning such a filehandle from a subroutine. I am not sure if this is the best way to word it, so I would appreciate feedback. The patch is attached. -- Sinan

* [perl #32380] numeric.c assumes that NV_DIG+2 will be enough digitsEd Allen Smith2010-10-031-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | for all precision possible in NV numeric.c, in the Perl_my_atof2 function, makes the following assumption: /* There is no point in processing more significant digits * than the NV can hold. Note that NV_DIG is a lower-bound value, * while we need an upper-bound value. We add 2 to account for this; * since it will have been conservative on both the first and last digit. * For example a 32-bit mantissa with an exponent of 4 would have * exact values in the set * 4 * 8 * .. * 17179869172 * 17179869176 * 17179869180 * * where for the purposes of calculating NV_DIG we would have to discount * both the first and last digit, since neither can hold all values from * 0..9; but for calculating the value we must examine those two digits. */ #define MAX_SIG_DIGITS (NV_DIG+2) Digits beyond MAX_SIG_DIGITS are ignored. In some systems and/or modes (e.g., with/without using long doubles), this is not the case. One example is IRIX when using long doubles, which are not fully IEEE compliant; with it, while NV_DIG (the _minimum_ number of digits usable) is 31 for long doubles used as NVs, long doubles can have up to 34 digits of accuracy. (As well as IRIX with long doubles, other machines using a mode in which NV is not IEEE compliant (e.g., as found by the following from numeric.c: #ifdef ((defined(VMS) && !defined(__IEEE_FP)) || defined(_UNICOS)) (although UNICOS does not by default use Perl's atof in any event) or as noted in the hints files for DEC OSF with the old MIPS CC) may benefit from a change to this.) I will attach a test program, example set of problematic outputs, and experimental patch so others can explore this on their systems. (With the patch and a -Accflags='-DMAX_SIG_DIG_PLUS=3' (or -Accflags='-DMAX_SIG_DIG_PLUS=4'), the test program was successful. Different values of MAX_SIG_DIG_PLUS may need to be experimented with, especially with different other Configure/compiler flags (long doubles yes/no, optimization affecting floating point, etcetera); 3 was the maximum that did any good on IRIX with long doubles, but others may differ.) I have done some local testing (as in the normal testsuite) of the patch and different -DMAX_SIG_DIG_PLUS values, and will be doing more; it is possible that it would be best to build in the test program into, say, numconvert.t. Patching hints/irix_6.sh to use -DMAX_SIG_DIG_PLUS=3 if long doubles are in use, or a define of MAX_SIG_DIG_PLUS to 3 if defined(IRIX) and long doubles are in use, is also advisable; I have not included either in my patch because I was unsure which was recommended practice.
* Use isGV_with_GP in vms/vms.c for better glob recognition.Craig A. Berry2010-10-031-3/+3
| | | | | | | | Suggested by Father Chrysostomos in: [perl #77500] VMS::Filespec and PVLV globs Affected routines are candelete_fromperl and rmscopy_from_perl.
* eval_sv: followup fix to 4aca2f62efDavid Mitchell2010-10-031-4/+5
| | | | | My original fix broke the 'goto redo_body' path. Not that anything tests for this!
* Fix perl build problems on Stratus VOSPaul Green2010-10-032-13/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The attached text files contain patches to correct build problems on the Stratus VOS (recently renamed "OpenVOS") operating system. I have tested these changes on OpenVOS Release 17.0, which is the most-current customer release. None of these changes should affect any other OS. Makefile.SH: This patch removes the "miniperl" dependency of the "all" target. On an operating system that does not require an executable suffix, the miniperl$(EXE_EXT) dependency evaluates to "miniperl", too. But on an operating system like VOS that does have an executable suffix, miniperl$(EXE_EXT) evaluates to (in our case) "miniperl.pm" and the "miniperl" target is unresolved. ext/Socket/Socket.xs: Sadly, OpenVOS does not yet support IPv6. I edited the code to allow for this case, while retaining IPv6 support for operating systems that do support it.
* Test for RT#3363: lexical lvalue under recursionGeorge Greer2010-10-031-1/+18
| | | | | Add a test to ensure that S_refto returns a SVt_PVLV if the original is a SVt_PVLV so that the lvalue-ness is preserved.

* G_KEEPERR sometimes set $@David Mitchell2010-10-032-6/+14
| | | | | | eval_sv(sv,G_KEEPERR) is supposed to warn on errors, rather than set $@; but in the particular case of compile-time errors it still set $@ instead. See [perl ##3719].
* eval_sv() and eval_pv() don't fail on syntax errDavid Mitchell2010-10-032-8/+95
| | | | | | [perl #3719] eval_sv("some syntax err") cleared $@ and didn't return a failure indication. This also affected eval_pv() which calls eval_sv(). Fix this and add lots of tests.
* Avoid downgrading GVs during global destructionFather Chrysostomos2010-10-031-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recently we’ve been getting assertions from gv.t like this: Assertion failed: (SvTYPE(sv) != SVTYPEMASK), function Perl_sv_clear, file sv.c, line 5783. This only happens in non-threaded builds and with PERL_DESTRUCT_LEVEL set to 2 (as in make test). These started with 13be902 (lvalue-to-glob assignment), but only because of the tests it added. The real cause turns out to be f746176, which introduced gv_try_downgrade. If a subroutine contains an op that references a downgradable GV, then gv_try_downgrade, if called on that GV during global destruction, *might* leave dangling pointers elsewhere; where exactly I wot not. Since memory-saving operations such as this downgrading are questiona- ble anyway durng global destruction, skip it, at least for now.

* rt 76474: Avoid the child perl reading from stdoutTony Cook2010-10-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | FD 1 is stdout, and the "<&1" redirect in the test sets the child to read from its parent's stdout, on Linux (and presumably OS X) doesn't let you read from stdout, but FreeBSD does, without the -e perl will try to read its program from stdin, so provide one.
* [perl #48332] Debugger corrupts symbol table mungingFather Chrysostomos2010-09-305-4/+31
| | | | | | | | This reverts commit 92adfbd49af0758bcc9a198cf2df2bd78c4176b9, which removed a necessary assignment for the sake of consting. In doing so, it allows subroutine redefinition to work properly again in the debugger.

| | | | | | | | | | Change the example split output in a "Non-capturing groupings" example from ('12','a','34','b','5') to ('12','a','34','a','5'). This way it'll match the example code that goes along with it: split /(a|b)+/, "12aba34ba5" Reported-by: Antonio Bonifati <antonio.bonifati@gmail.com>
* Sort embed.fnc by CPP macro and then function name, before generating files.Nicholas Clark2010-09-304-6037/+5597
| | | | | Additionally, sort embed.h by public API, then core-or-ext, and finally core only. This reduces the number of #if/#endif pairs in embed.h and proto.h
* Don't export symbols for routines that don't exist.Craig A. Berry2010-09-291-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | The excluded routines are aliases, and while there are a lot of aliases, most of them also exist in mathoms.c so there are actual symbols to link against. These don't and aren't. Before a4e744802906bbf8435494e7f5ab1823213b2448, there were quite a few Perl_pp_xxx and Perl_ck_xxx symbols that were not getting collected here.
* [perl #78040] regcomp.c: malloc enough spaceKarl Williamson2010-09-291-10/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 9de15fec376a8ff90a38fad0ff322c72c2995765 introduced /u, /d, and /l regex modifiers. Unfortunately, I forgot to adequately account for them in the space required for the stringification of the regex. This patch figures out separately if the caret is needed, and if one of these charset modifiers is needed, and allocates space accordingly. I could not figure out a simple test case for this fix. valgrind prior to this will show errors, and after this doesn't.
