* regen_perly.pl: remove extraneous comments from bison 3.xDagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker2020-08-171-268/+268
| | | | | | | | | | | | The script alrady stripped out comments from bison 2.4 on the form /* Line 1234 of yacc.c */ But bison 3.0 changed the comment syntax to /* yacc.c:1234 */ Let's remove those too.
* Add support for Bison versions up to 3.7Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker2020-08-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | This requires copying the `YY_CAST` and `YY_ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED` macros from the generated code, and extracting the `yysymbol_kind_t` enum if it's defined. We must also handle token type names with escaped double-quotes in them, since it now names the `YYEOF` and `YYUNDEF` tokens `"end of file"` and `"invalid token"` instead of `$end` and `$undefined`, respectively.
* Bump minimum required Bison version to 2.4Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker2020-08-061-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | This lets us replace the deprecated `%pure-parser` directive with `%define api.pure`, and get rid of some other conditional code. Bison is only required for developers hacking on the grammar, since we check in the generated code. Bison 2.4 was released in 2008, and is included in operating systems as old as Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

The op on top serves two purposes: first, it makes it easier for Deparse.pm etc to spot siganure code; secondly, it may at some point in the future be upgraded to OP_SIGNATURE when signatures get optimised. It's of type ex-argcheck only because when being created it needs to be an op type that's in class UNOP_AUX so that the created op will be suitable for later optimising, and making it an ex-type associated with signatures helps flag it as such. There should be no functional changes apart from the shape of the optree.
* OP_ARGCHECK: use custom aux structDavid Mitchell2019-09-231-264/+265
| | | | | | | | | | | | This op is of class OP_UNOP_AUX, Ops of this class have an op_aux pointer which typically points to a variable-length malloced array of IVs, UVs, etc. However in the specific case of OP_ARGCHECK the data stored in the aux struct is fixed. So this commit casts the aux pointer to a struct containing the relevant fields (number of parameters etc), rather than referring to them as aux[0], aux[1] etc. This makes the code more readable. Should be no functional changes.
* [perl #132474] Add function for parsing sub signaturesPaul "LeoNerd" Evans2019-07-221-481/+505
| | | | | | | | | | | | This exposes a GRAMSUBSIGNATURE top-level production from perly.y for toke.c to consume, which parses a subroutine signature, inside the parens. This needed a small change to the existing rules, to pull out a rule that handles all of the insides of the parens but not the parens themselves. (h/t to ilmari for the suggestion)
* Support Bison version 3.1 through 3.4Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker2019-07-111-253/+254
| | | | No significant changes in the generated code since 3.0.
* (perl #130585) prevent a spurious ) in a subparse confusing the parserTony Cook2019-06-121-372/+378
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When doing a subparse, the tokenizer opens up the subexpression with a '(' token, expecting the logic in yylex() to generate a ')' once it sees the end of the subparsed string. If the subparsed string includes an unmatched ')', this could confuse the parser into finishing the expression and effectively exiting the subparse without cleaning up (including popping the context) To avoid that, create special bracketing tokens only generated for a subparse and update the grammar to use those tokens in the cases they might be used in a subparse. This is an updated version of the patch that moves the FUNC rule to where the original rule was and adds a test for non-regexp subparses.
* parser: change LABEL type from pval to opvalDavid Mitchell2019-04-051-254/+260
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The items pushed onto the parser stack can be one of several types: ival, opval, pval etc. The only remaining use of pval is when a "label:" is encountered. When an error occurs during parsing, ops on the parse stack get automatically reaped these days as part of the OP slab mechanism; but bare strings (pvals) still leak. Convert this one remaining pval into an opval, making the toker return an OP_CONST with an SV holding the label. Since newSTATEOP() still expects a raw string for the label, the parser just grabs the value returned by the toker and makes a copy of the string from it, then immediately frees the OP_CONST and its associated SV. The leak was showing up in ext/XS-APItest/t/stmtasexpr.t, which expects to parse a statement where labels are banned.
* detect sub attributes following a signatureDavid Mitchell2018-03-021-144/+153
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RT #132760 A recent commit (v5.27.7-212-g894f226) moved subroutine attributes back before the subroutine's signature: e.g. sub foo :prototype($$) ($a, $b) { ... } # 5.18 and 5.28 + sub foo ($a, $b) :prototype($$) { ... } # 5.20 .. 5.26 This change means that any code still using an attribute following the signature is going to trigger a syntax error. However, the error, followed by error recovery and further warnings and errors, is very unfriendly and gives no indication of the root cause. This commit introduces a new error, "Subroutine attributes must come before the signature". For example, List::Lazy, the subject of the ticket, failed to compile tests, with output like: Array found where operator expected at blib/lib/List/Lazy.pm line 43, near "$$@)" (Missing operator before @)?) "my" variable $step masks earlier declaration in same statement at blib/lib/List/Lazy.pm line 44. syntax error at blib/lib/List/Lazy.pm line 36, near ") :" Global symbol "$generator" requires explicit package name (did you forget to declare "my $generator"?) at blib/lib/List/Lazy.pm line 38.

But following this commit, it now just outputs: Subroutine attributes must come before the signature at blib/lib/List/Lazy.pm line 36. Compilation failed in require at t/append.t line 5. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at t/append.t line 5. It works by: 1) adding a boolean flag (sig_seen) to the parser state to indicate that a signature has been parsed; 2) at the end of parsing a signature, PL_expect is set to XATTRBLOCK rather than XBLOCK. Then if something looking like one or more attributes is encountered by the lexer immediately afterwards, it scans it as if it were an attribute, but then if sig_seen is true, it croaks.
* rationalise subroutine parsing rulesDavid Mitchell2018-03-021-396/+424
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the parser rules have been split into separate rules for subs under 'use feature "signatures"' and not, refine the rules to reflect the different regimes. In particular: 1) no longer include 'proto' in the signature variants: as it happens the toker would never return a proto THING under signatures anyway, but removing it from the grammar makes it clearer what's expected and not expected. 2) Remove 'subsignature' from non-sig rules: what used to happen before was that outside of 'use feature "signatures"', it might still try to parse a signature, e.g. $ perl5279 -we 'sub f :lvalue ($$@) { $x = 1 }' Illegal character following sigil in a subroutine signature at -e line 1, near "($" syntax error at -e line 1, near "$$@" Now it's just a plain syntax error.
* parse subs and signature subs separatelyDavid Mitchell2018-03-021-429/+461
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the toker returns a SUB or ANONSUB token at the beginning of a sub (or BEGIN etc). Change it so that in the scope of 'use feature "signatures"', it returns a SIGSUB / ANON_SIGSUB token instead. Then in perly.y, duplicate the 2 rules containing SUB / ANONSUB to cope with these two new tokens. The net effect of this is to use different rules in the parser for parsing subs when signatures are in scope. Since the two sets of rules have just been cut and pasted, there should be no functional changes yet, but that will change shortly.
* add Perl_init_named_cv() functiomDavid Mitchell2018-03-021-234/+218
| | | | | | | This moves a block of code out from perly.y into its own function, because it will shortly be needed in more than one place. Should be no functional changes.
* move sub attributes before the signatureDavid Mitchell2018-01-191-427/+389
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RT #132141 Attributes such as :lvalue have to come *before* the signature to ensure that they're applied to any code block within the signature; e.g. sub f :lvalue ($a = do { $x = "abc"; return substr($x,0,1)}) { .... } So this commit moves sub attributes to come before the signature. This is how they were originally, but they were swapped with v5.21.7-394-gabcf453. This commit is essentially a revert of that commit (and its followups v5.21.7-395-g71917f6, v5.21.7-421-g63ccd0d), plus some extra work for Deparse, and an extra test. See: RT #123069 for why they were originally swapped RT #132141 for why that broke :lvalue http://nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/247999 for a general discussion about RT #132141
* fix parsing of braced subscript after parensZefram2018-01-161-118/+130
| | | | | | | | | Where an arrow is omitted between subscripts, if a parenthesised subscript is followed by a braced one, PL_expect was getting set to XBLOCK due to code intended for "foreach (...) {...}". This broke bareword autoquotation, and the parsing of operators following the braced subscript. Alter PL_expect from XBLOCK to XOPERATOR following a parenthesised subscript. Fixes [perl #8045].
* revert smartmatch to 5.27.6 behaviourZefram2017-12-291-422/+416
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The pumpking has determined that the CPAN breakage caused by changing smartmatch [perl #132594] is too great for the smartmatch changes to stay in for 5.28. This reverts most of the merge in commit da4e040f42421764ef069371d77c008e6b801f45. All core behaviour and documentation is reverted. The removal of use of smartmatch from a couple of tests (that aren't testing smartmatch) remains. Customisation of a couple of CPAN modules to make them portable across smartmatch types remains. A small bugfix in scope.c also remains.

* parse yada-yada only as a statementZefram2017-11-101-325/+325
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit f5727a1c71878a34f6255eb1a506c0b21af7d36f tried to make yada-yada be parsed consistently as a term expression, but actually things are more complicated than that. The tokeniser didn't accept yada-yada in the right contexts to make it usable as an expression, and changing that would require decisions on resolving ambiguities between yada-yada and flip-flop. It's also documented as being a statement rather than an expression, though with some incorrect information about ambiguities. Overall it looks more like the intent was for yada-yada to be a statement. This commit makes it grammatically treated as such, and also fixes up the dubious parts of the documentation. [perl #132150]
* perly.y: add $$ = 0 for midrule code blocksDavid Mitchell2017-06-071-244/+250
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In places where a rule contains multiple code blocks, ensure that $$ is assigned a valid value at the end of midrule blocks, so that valgrind ./perl -Dpv ... doesn't display zillions of Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value errors, when perl tries to display the parse stack. I've only done the various newish top-level grammar entries - these all seemed to have the same defect, while from a quick glance elsewhere in the file, it seemed like older rules already do this.
* yyparse: only calculate yytoken on yychar changeDavid Mitchell2016-12-051-4/+4
| | | | | | | | yytoken is a translated (via lookup table) version of parser->yychar. So we only need to recalculate it when yychar changes (usually by assigning the result of yylex() to it). This means when multiple reductions are done without shifting another token, we skip the extra overhead each time.
* Regen from the "special" regen scriptsAaron Crane2016-11-111-1/+1
| | | | | | A few regen scripts aren't run by "make regen", either because they depend on an external tool, or they must be run by the Perl just built. So they must be run manually.

* [perl #129073] Assert failure: ${p{};sub p}()Father Chrysostomos2016-09-041-899/+658
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When parsing the special ${var{subscript}} syntax, the lexer notes that the } matching the ${ will be a fake bracket, and should be ignored. In the case of ${p{};sub p}() the first syntax error causes tokens to be popped, such that the } following the sub declaration ends up being the one treated as a fake bracket and ignored. The part of the lexer that deals with sub declarations treats a ( fol- lowing the sub name as a prototype (which is a single term) if signa- tures are disabled, but ignores it and allows the rest of the lexer to treat it as a parenthesis if signatures are enabled. Hence, the part of the parser (perly.y) that parses signatures knows that a parenthesis token can only come after a sub if signatures are enabled, and asserts as much. In the case of an error and tokens being discarded, a parenthesis may come after a sub name as far as the parser is concerned, even though there was a } in between that got discarded. The sub part of the lexer, of course did not see the parenthesis because of the interven- ing brace, and did not treat it as a prototype. So we get an asser- tion failure. The simplest fix is to loosen up the assertion and allow for anomalies after errors. It does not hurt to go ahead and parse a signature at this point, even though the feature is disabled, because there has been a syntax error already, so the parsed code will never run, and the parsed sub will not be installed.
* signatures: eliminate XSIGVAR, add KEY_sigvarDavid Mitchell2016-08-181-656/+900
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I moved subroutine signature processing into perly.y with v5.25.3-101-gd3d9da4, I added a new lexer PL_expect state, XSIGVAR. This indicated, when about to parse a variable, that it was a signature element rather than a my variable; in particular, it makes ($,...) be toked as the lone sigil '$' rather than the punctuation variable '$,'. However this is a bit heavy-handled; so instead this commit adds a new allowed pseudo-keyword value to PL_in_my: as well as KEY_my, KEY_our and KEY_state, it can now be KEY_sigvar. This is a less intrusive change to the lexer.
* Use parser, not PL_parser, in perly.yFather Chrysostomos2016-08-041-914/+671
| | | | | | The code snippets in perly.y are #included in a C function that has a ‘parser’ local variable. Local variables require less machine code (especially under threads).
* silence compiler warning in perly.yDavid Mitchell2016-08-031-2/+2
| | | | | assigning a char from an I32 gives a warning. Add an explicit cast as we know the int only ever holds a char.
* signatures: make param and optional param count IVDavid Mitchell2016-08-031-153/+154
| | | | | | | | | During the course of parsing end exection, these values get stored as ints and UVs, then used as SSize_t. Standardise on IVs instead. Technically they can never be negative, but their final use is as indices into AVs, which is SSize_t, so it's easier to standardise on a signed value throughout.
* ucfirst() new signature diagnostic messagesDavid Mitchell2016-08-031-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | e.g. a slurpy parameter may not have a default value => A slurpy parameter may not have a default value Also, split the "Too %s arguments for subroutine" diagnostic into separate "too few" and "too many" entries in perldiag. Based on suggestions by Father Chrysostomos.
* add OP_ARGELEM, OP_ARGDEFELEM, OP_ARGCHECK opsDavid Mitchell2016-08-031-288/+212
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently subroutine signature parsing emits many small discrete ops to implement arg handling. This commit replaces them with a couple of ops per signature element, plus an initial signature check op. These new ops are added to the OP tree during parsing, so will be visible to hooks called up to and including peephole optimisation. It is intended soon that the peephole optimiser will take these per-element ops, and replace them with a single OP_SIGNATURE op which handles the whole signature in a single go. So normally these ops wont actually get executed much. But adding these intermediate-level ops gives three advantages: 1) it allows the parser to efficiently generate subtrees containing individual signature elements, which can't be done if only OP_SIGNATURE or discrete ops are available; 2) prior to optimisation, it provides a simple and straightforward representation of the signature; 3) hooks can mess with the signature OP subtree in ways that make it no longer possible to optimise into an OP_SIGNATURE, but which can still be executed, deparsed etc (if less efficiently). This code: use feature "signatures"; sub f($a, $, $b = 1, @c) {$a} under 'perl -MO=Concise,f' now gives: d <1> leavesub[1 ref] K/REFC,1 ->(end) - <@> lineseq KP ->d 1 <;> nextstate(main 84 foo:6) v:%,469762048 ->2 2 <+> argcheck(3,1,@) v ->3 3 <;> nextstate(main 81 foo:6) v:%,469762048 ->4 4 <+> argelem(0)[$a:81,84] v/SV ->5 5 <;> nextstate(main 82 foo:6) v:%,469762048 ->6 8 <+> argelem(2)[$b:82,84] vKS/SV ->9 6 <|> argdefelem(other->7)[2] sK ->8 7 <$> const(IV 1) s ->8 9 <;> nextstate(main 83 foo:6) v:%,469762048 ->a a <+> argelem(3)[@c:83,84] v/AV ->b - <;> ex-nextstate(main 84 foo:6) v:%,469762048 ->b b <;> nextstate(main 84 foo:6) v:%,469762048 ->c c <0> padsv[$a:81,84] s ->d The argcheck(3,1,@) op knows the number of positional params (3), the number of optional params (1), and whether it has an array / hash slurpy element at the end. This op is responsible for checking that @_ contains the right number of args. A simple argelem(0)[$a] op does the equivalent of 'my $a = $_[0]'. Similarly, argelem(3)[@c] is equivalent to 'my @c = @_[3..$#_]'. If it has a child, it gets its arg from the stack rather than using $_[N]. Currently the only used child is the logop argdefelem. argdefelem(other->7)[2] is equivalent to '@_ > 2 ? $_[2] : other'. [ These ops currently assume that the lexical var being introduced is undef/empty and non-magival etc. This is an incorrect assumption and is fixed in a few commits' time ]
* sub signatures: use parser rather than lexerDavid Mitchell2016-08-031-377/+650
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the signature of a sub (i.e. the '($a, $b = 1)' bit) is parsed in toke.c using a roll-your-own mini-parser. This commit makes the signature be part of the general grammar in perly.y instead. In theory it should still generate the same optree as before, except that an OP_STUB is no longer appended to each signature optree: it's unnecessary, and I assume that was a hangover from early development of the original signature code. Error messages have changed somewhat: the generic 'Parse error' has changed to the generic 'syntax error', with the addition of ', near "xyz"' now appended to each message. Also, some specific error messages have been added; for example (@a=1) now says that slurpy params can't have a default vale, rather than just giving 'Parse error'. It introduces a new lexer expect state, XSIGVAR, since otherwise when the lexer saw something like '($, ...)' it would see the identifier '$,' rather than the tokens '$' and ','. Since it no longer uses parse_termexpr(), it is no longer subject to the bug (#123010) associated with that; so sub f($x = print, $y) {} is no longer mis-interpreted as sub f($x = print($_, $y)) {}
* rename "WORD" lexical token to "BAREWORD"David Mitchell2016-07-201-617/+844
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The enum value "WORD" can apparently clash with a enum value in windows headers. It used to be worked around in windows by #defining YYTOKENTYPE, which caused the enum yytokentype { ... WORD = ...; } in perly.h to be skipped, while still using the #define WORD ... which appears later in the same file. In bison 3.x, the auto-generated perl.h no longer includes the #defines, so this workaround no longer works. Instead, change the name of the token from "WORD" to "BAREWORD".
* Allow my \$aFather Chrysostomos2016-07-171-118/+128
| | | | | | | | | | This applies to ‘my’, ‘our’, ‘state’ and ‘local’, and both to single variable and lists of variables, in all their variations: my \$a # equivalent to \my $a my \($a,$b) # equivalent to \my($a, $b) my (\($a,$b)) # same my (\$a, $b) # equivalent to (\my $a, $b)
* Simplify parser’s handling of my/localFather Chrysostomos2016-05-211-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In Perl 5.000, the same token, LOCAL, was used for both ‘my’ and ‘local’, with a token value, passed to localize() as a second argu- ment, to distinguish between them. perl-5.003_07-9-g55497cf (inseparable changes from patch from perl5.003_07 to perl5.003_08), for no apparent reason, split them into two tokens, removing the token values and assigning values in perly.y via $$ = 0 and $$ = 1. They still ultimately made their way through the same grammar rule, as there was only one localize() call in perly.y. The code still made sense. perl-5.005_02-1816-g09bef84 (sub : attrlist) changed things, such that the tokens are separate *and* they get separate token values assigned to them. ‘local’ and ‘my’ no longer follow the same grammar rules in perly.y, so there are separate localize() calls for the different token types. Hence, the use of a token value to distinguish them does not make sense. It just makes this more complicated that necessary. So this commit removes the token values. Since the two token types follow different paths through perly.y and have separate localize() calls, we can hard-code the argument to localize() there, instead of passing the value through from toke.c as a token value. This does shrink toke.o slightly (for me it went from 876040 to 876000), and it makes this conceptually clearer.

* [perl #127122] warn on unless (assignment) when syntax warnings are onTony Cook2016-01-211-296/+291
| | | | | | Previously the assignment was hidden by the not op wrapped around the condition, but newCONDOP() is sufficiently flexible that it isn't needed.
* given(): remove support for lexical $_David Mitchell2015-10-021-428/+419
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is dead code that used to allow my $_; ... given ($foo) { # lexical $_ aliased to $foo here } Now that lexical $_ has been removed, remove the code. I've left the signatures of the newFOO() functions unchanged; they just expect a target of 0 to always be passed now.
* perly.y: Remove type from ';'Father Chrysostomos2015-02-151-1/+1
| | | | | | This token’s type is never used. We don’t bother setting the type, either, in toke.c, so it will be garbage. Removing the type makes it harder to use the garbage value by mistake in refactoring.
* perly.y: Remove types for '$' and '*'Father Chrysostomos2015-02-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | These two tokens never use their value, and the value is not even set in toke.c, which means it will contain a junk value from some previous token. Removing the types prevents that junk value from being acci- dentally used.
* Parse and compile string- and num-specific bitopsFather Chrysostomos2015-01-311-228/+231
| | | | Yay, the semicolons are back.
* perly.y changes from Lukas Mai in RT 123069Peter Martini2015-01-181-522/+557
| | | | | | | | | This moves signatures before attributes in the grammar by creating separate branches for the prototype and signatures cases, so that the introduced block and the fact that signatures do not allow for declarations can be handled properly. Tests and regen_perly to follow.
* Simplify s/// and tr/// parsing logicFather Chrysostomos2015-01-081-30/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These two operators were being translated into subst("","") and tr("","") by the lexer. Then pmruntime in op.c would take apart the resulting list op. Instead of constructing a list op only to take it apart again, feed the replacement part to pmruntime separately. We can achieve this by introducing a new token ('/') that the parser rec- ognizes as introducing a replacement. If we had followed this approach to begin with, then bug #123542 would never have happened. (Actually, it seems the parser did know about the replacement part to begin with, but it changed in perl-5.8.0-4047-g131b3ad to fix some overloading problems.)
