* update the editor hints for spaces, not tabsRicardo Signes2012-05-291-2/+2
| | | | | This updates the editor hints in our files for Emacs and vim to request that tabs be inserted as spaces.
* utf8.h: Use correct definition of start byteKarl Williamson2012-04-261-1/+2
| | | | | | The previous definition allowed for (illegal) overlongs. The uses of this macro in the core assume that it is accurate. The inacurracy can cause such code to fail.
* utf8.h: Use correct UTF-8 downgradeable definitionChristian Hansen2012-04-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Previously, the macro changed by this commit would accept overlong sequences. This patch was changed by the committer to to include EBCDIC changes; and in the non-EBCDIC case, to save a test, by using a mask instead, in keeping with the prior version of the code
* Bump several file copyright datesSteffen Schwigon2012-01-191-2/+2
| | | | | | | Sync copyright dates with actual changes according to git history. [Plus run regen_perly.h to update the SHA-256 checksums, and regen/regcharclass.pl to update regcharclass.h]
* utfebcdic.h: Add synonymous macrosKarl Williamson2011-11-211-0/+2
| | | | I8 is a synonym for 'UTF' in this context, and is more meaningful to me.
* Add #defines for 2 Latin1 charsKarl Williamson2011-02-271-0/+6
| | | | | These will be used in a future commit; the ordinals are different on EBCDIC vs. ASCII

* PL_fold wrong for EBCDIC platforms.Karl Williamson2010-11-221-0/+113
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The PL_fold table map on EBCDIC only works on the ASCII-subrange characters, not the full native Latin1. To fix this, I moved the table to utfebcdic.h for EBCDIC platforms, and actually changed it to three tables, one for each of the code pages known to Perl. There is no EBCDIC platform available to test on. What I did was hack together a program from existing code that does EBCDIC transforms. I ran it in ASCII mode, and verified that the generated table was identical to the Latin1 table I had previously constructed by hand and extensively tested. I then ran it on each of the three EBCDIC transforms, and verified that each matched the places in the original table that I knew were correct, all the ASCII alphabetics, the controls, and a few other code points. So these tables are at least as correct as the existing one, as they are identical to it for [A-Z], [a-z].
* More cleanup of utfebcdic.h and utf8.hkarl williamson2009-11-091-53/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attached is a patch that removes from utfebcdic.h most definitions that are common to it and utf8.h, and moves them to the common area of utf8.h. The duplicate ones that are retained are each an integral part of a larger related set that do differ between the headers. Some of the definitions had started to drift, so this brings them back into line, with a lowered possibility of future drift. In particular the ones for the 'lazy' macros did not do quite as intended, especially in the EBCDIC case. The bugs were a small performance hit only, in that the macro was not quite as lazy as expected, and so loaded utf8_heavy.pl possibly unnecessarily. In examining these, I noted that the utf8.h definition of the start byte of a utf8 encoded string accepts invalid start bytes 0xC0 and 0xC1. These are invalid because they are for overlong encodings of ASCII code points. One is not supposed to allow these, and there have been security attacks, according to Wikipedia, against code that does. But I don't know all the ramifications for Perl of changing to exclude these, so I left it alone, but added a comment (and an item on my personal todo list to check into it). I made some comment clarifications, and removed some definitions marked as obsolete in utf8.h that are in fact no longer used. I added some synonyms for existing macros that more clearly reflect the use that I intend to put them to in future patches.

* Faster sv_utf8_upgrade()karl williamson2009-01-021-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Consider what currently happens when the tokenizer is scanning a string. It looks through it byte-by-byte until it finds a character that forces it to decide to go to utf8. It then calls sv_utf8_upgrade() with the portion of the string scanned so far. sv_utf8_upgrade() starts over from the beginning, and scans the string byte-by-byte until it finds a character that varies between non-utf8 and utf8. It then calls bytes_to_utf8(). bytes_to_utf8() allocates a new string that can handle the worst case expansion, 2n+1, of the entire string, and starts over from the beginning, and scans the input string byte-by-byte copying and converting each character to the output string as it goes. It doesn't return the size of the new string, so sv_utf8_upgrade() assumes it is only as big as what actually got converted, throwing away knowledge of any spare. It then returns to the tokenizer, which immediately does a grow to get space for the unparsed input. This is likely to cause a new string to be allocated and copied from the one we had just created, even if that string in actuality had enough space in it. Thus, the invariant head portion of the string is scanned 3 times, and probably 2 strings will be allocated and copied. My solution to cutting this down is to do several things. First, I added an extra flag for sv_utf8_upgrade that says don't bother to check if the string needs to be converted to utf8, just assume it does. This eliminates one of the passes. I also added a new parameter to sv_utf8_upgrade that says when you return, I want this much unused space in the string. That eliminates the extra grow. This was all done by renaming the current work-horse function from sv_utf8_upgrade_flags to be sv_utf8_upgrade_flags_grow() and making the current function name be a macro which calls the revised one with a 0 grow parameter. I also improved the internal efficiency of sv_utf8_upgrade so that when it does scan the string, it doesn't call bytes_to_utf8, but does the conversion itself, using a fast memory copy instead of the byte-oriented one for the invariant header, and it uses that header to get a better estimate of the needed size of the new string, and it doesn't throw away the knowledge of the allocated size. And, if it is clear without scanning the whole string that the conversion will fit in the already allocated string, it just uses that instead of allocating and copying a new one, using the algorithm I copied from the tokenizer. (In this case it does have to finish scanning the whole string to get the correct size.) The comments have details. It still is byte-oriented. Vectorization et. al. could yield performance improvements. One idea for that is in the comments. The patch also includes a new synonym I created which is a more accurate name than NATIVE_TO_ASCII.

encoding on EBCDIC platforms. This has property that U+0000..U+009F i.e. a superset of ASCII are invariant under the encoding. This is EBCDIC friendly as an encoded string can be looked at as being EBCDIC by lexer sprintf("%d",...) etc. in same manner that a UTF-8 string be considered ASCII on ASCII machines. - re-arrange utf8.h to get ASCII specific vs Unicode generic bits seperate. - Add some more macros to comprehend different shift amounts and possible swizzle in UTF-EBCDIC vs UTF-8. Change utf8.c to use them. - add utfebcdic.h which provides UTF-EBCDIC versions of the macros, and conditionally #include it. EBCDIC build as yet untested. ASCII still fails the one test. p4raw-id: //depot/perlio@9185
