* PL_defoutgv isn't always a GV.David Mitchell2010-03-301-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nasty code like the following results in PL_defoutgv not pointing to a valid GV: my $x = *STDERR; select($x); $x = 1; This causes all sorts of SEGVs when PL_defoutgv is subsequently accessed, because most code assumes that it has a valid gv_gp pointer. It also turns out that PL_defoutgv is under-tested; for example, temporarily hacking pp_close to make an arg-less close() croak didn't cause any minitest failures. Add a new test file that does some basic testing of a bad PL_defoutgv, and fix all the obvious badness in accessing it. This also fixes #20727, which although ostensibly a tie bug, was due to PL_defoutgv pointing to a tiedelem scalar, and fun like that described above happening.
* [perl #72740]: Blead breaks LEMBARK/LinkedList-Single-0.99.1.tar.gzZefram2010-03-101-10/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | f7461760003db2ce68155c97ea6c1658e96fcd27 improved the PL_check hook for bareword subs, but broke the above module. This is Zefram's followup: The issue is that speculative function lookups were leaving detritus consisting of empty GVs in the stash. These didn't affect normal functioning, but code that looks inside the stash could see them, and code that makes unreliable assumptions about the format of the stash can be broken. This is the same general mode of failure that we saw with namespace::clean. LinkedList-Single's failing test was using direct stash access poorly, in a way that made for a poor test, quite apart from making too many assumptions about stash structure. In the latest version of the package, 0.99.6, the test has been changed to a much better form, which actually tests what it meant to and incidentally doesn't read the stash at all. Although they don't affect normal functioning, the empty GVs shouldn't be there. It's much like the upgraded constant subs, which we concluded ought to be downgraded when the upgraded form is no longer required, in order to save memory. The solution here is similar: delete the empty GV when it is detected that a real GV is no longer required. The present patch does this at the same time as checking for constant-sub downgradability.
* Make perl's magic variables in gv.c grep-ableÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason2010-01-201-35/+35
| | | | | | It can be hard especially for those unfamiliar with the source to find where variables like $` and $[ are set up, now they're just a ack -Q away.

* Bareword sub lookupsZefram2009-11-081-0/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attached is a patch that changes how the tokeniser looks up subroutines, when they're referenced by a bareword, for prototype and const-sub purposes. Formerly, it has looked up bareword subs directly in the package, which is contrary to the way the generated op tree looks up the sub, via an rv2cv op. The patch makes the tokeniser generate the rv2cv op earlier, and dig around in that. The motivation for this is to allow modules to hook the rv2cv op creation, to affect the name->subroutine lookup process. Currently, such hooking affects op execution as intended, but everything goes wrong with a bareword ref where the tokeniser looks at some unrelated CV, or a blank space, in the package. With the patch in place, an rv2cv hook correctly affects the tokeniser and therefore the prototype-based aspects of parsing. The patch also changes ck_subr (which applies the argument context and checking parts of prototype behaviour) to handle subs referenced by an RV const op inside the rv2cv, where formerly it would only handle a gv op inside the rv2cv. This is to support the most likely kind of modified rv2cv op. The attached patch is the resulting revised version of the bareword sub patch. It incorporates the original patch (allowing rv2cv op hookers to control prototype processing), the GV-downgrading addition, and a mention in perldelta.
* Implement the 'qr' overload type.Ben Morrow2009-11-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | If this is defined, it will be called instead of stringification whenever an object is used as a regexp or interpolated into a regexp. This will fall back to stringification even without C<fallback => 1>, for compatibility. An overloaded 'qr' must return either a REGEXP or a ref to a REGEXP (such as created by qr//). Any further overloading on the return value will be ignored.

* Remove category 'syntax' from 5 warnings that should just be in 'deprecated'.Nicholas Clark2009-10-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | None were documented as also being in 'syntax'. Effectively, this completes the reorganisation of commits 12bcd1a617c74d6e and 9014280dc8264580. See http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2009-10/msg00601.html and http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2002-03/msg00850.html
* Add Perl_ck_warner_d(), which combines Perl_ckwarn_d() and Perl_warner().Nicholas Clark2009-10-121-9/+8

* Add Perl_ck_warner(), which combines Perl_ckwarn() and Perl_warner().Nicholas Clark2009-10-121-7/+5
| | | | | | | Replace ckWARN{,2,3,4}() && Perl_warner() with it, which trades reduced code size (about 0.2%), for 1 more function call if warnings are not enabled. However, if we're now in the L1 or L2 cache when we weren't previously, that's still going to be a speed win.
* Don't modify namelen in the first half of gv_stashpvn()Vincent Pit2009-09-101-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | As it may be needed later when the lookup failed. This fixes [perl #69066]. However, from now, "package ::" and "package foo::" respectively introduce the "::" and "foo::" packages. Deciding if this is the correct thing to do ought to be addressed separately.

* Add a parameter "destructing" to Gv_AMupdate()Rafael Garcia-Suarez2009-07-081-8/+25
| | | | | | | | This boolean parameter indicates if the function has been called to update the overload magic table while looking up the DESTROY method. In this case, it's probably best to avoid croaking if those tables could not be updated (for example due to a method that could not be loaded.)
