This funciton parses an integer and returns OBJNULL when it exceeds the size of
a fixnum.
It is used in format.d - a file that is not compiled currently. It should be
also used in cl_name_char.
[wip] because:
- is it really needed?
- I've commented unicode access for digitp
To avoid dependency on vector.o we opencode allocating the vector.
Note that we can't use ecl_make_stack, because mallocated memory must be
reegistered as a root.
[todo] move finalizers to memory and fix t_bclosure
[note] ecl_stack_pshu never resizes the stack (realloc vs manual resize)
This table contains symbols that are essential to the core runtime: ECL_T,
ECL_UNBOUND, ECL_SIGNAL_HANDLERS, ECL_RESTART_CLUSTERs, ECL_INTERRUPTS_ENABLED,
ECL_ALLOW_OTHER_KEYS and ECL_UNBOUND.
The table is initialized with constexpr, so it is possible to use its elements
in static elements. We also add ecl_def_function to ecl-inl to allow
appropriating C functions into Lisp world at top level.
ecl_alloc_object, ecl_free_object
ecl_alloc, ecl_alloc_manual, ecl_alloc_atomic, ecl_dealloc
Moreover move all top-level ops to memory.d so they are not reliant on mem_gc.
The stubbed allocator uses manual memory managament for all ops.
Previously we've opencoded calls to these functions, although they may be nicely
abstracted with static inline functions. This change improves code readibility
and portability.
We also remove conditionalization for garbage collector inclusion in autotools.
When we propose an alternative gc, then we may decide to put them back, or to
add necessary ifdef statements directly in files.
Moreover untangle c-stack from the gc code and assign the stack base with a
rough guess only when it is not initialized yet (GC will always fill it).
Finally remove a kludge from ecl_adopt_cpu and disable colleciton until the cpu
is fully initialized.
I've also renamed *HANDLER-CLUSTERS* to a more appropriate *SIGNAL-HANDLERS*.
Currently this symbol is imported to the SYSTEM package, although this may be
revised in the future to cater to multiple global environments. Alternatively
the SYSTEM package may be common to all runtimes.
Instead of storing lists in *HANDLER-CLUSTERS*, we define functions that are
called unconditionally on the handler. HANDLER-BIND defines that function to be
a typecase that is dispatched based on the conditiont type, as specified by CL.
This change will aid further refactor.
The latter name follows the codebase convention that functions that do not work
in the environment have a prefix ecl_. The old name is defined in legacy.h.
