* src/alloc.c (live_string_holding, live_cons_holding)
(live_symbol_holding, live_vector_holding):
Return a C pointer, not a Lisp_Object. All callers changed.
This helps the compiler a bit.
(live_string_p, live_cons_p, live_symbol_p, live_vector_p):
Require that P point directly at the object, rather than
somewhere within the object. This fixes some false positives
with valid_lisp_object_p (used only in debugging).
(mark_maybe_object): Rely on the new accuracy.
For discussion, see the following thread:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2020-06/msg00117.html
* lisp/apropos.el (apropos-library-button):
* lisp/help-fns.el (help-fns--first-release): Return result of
make-text-button instead of relying on its side effects.
* lisp/ibuf-ext.el (ibuffer-old-saved-filters-warning): Avoid
modifying an immutable string.
(dired-mark--region-use-p, dired-mark--region-beginning)
(dired-mark--region-end): New internal functions.
(dired-mark-if): Use new functions. (Bug#39902)
* lisp/progmodes/project.el (project-switch-commands): Use
characters for keys instead of string for better future
compatibility with 'read-multiple-choice'.
(project-switch-project): Adjust to above change.
This tries to make `font-lock-syntax-table` work correctly even when
it changes the parsing of strings and comments, as was the case in
`font-latex.el`.
We should probably deprecate the use of `font-lock-syntax-table` since
the present fix is still not 100% and since it comes with performance
problems in large files.
(font-lock-set-defaults): Set it.
(font-lock-fontify-syntactically-region): Don't use `syntax-ppss`
when we think that `font-lock-syntax-table` would interfere.
* src/alloc.c (USE_VALGRIND): If not defined, don’t default it to
1 unless ENABLE_CHECKING. The Valgrind hooks bloat the garbage
collector a bit in production, and there’s no need for them these
days if one has a Valgrind suppressions file (which one needs anyway).
(mark_maybe_pointer): Use ‘#if USE_VALGRIND’ instead of ‘#ifdef
USE_VALGRIND’ for consistency with other uses of USE_VALGRIND.
This is in case someone builds with ‘-DENABLE_CHECKING
-DUSE_VALGRIND=0’ in CFLAGS.
* lisp/button.el (make-text-button): Don’t make a copy of
a button’s string label. This reverts the change made in
2020-05-17T05:23:28Z!eggert@cs.ucla.edu, which broke SLY.
Problem reported by João Távora in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2020-06/msg00117.html
However, we’ll need a better fix for this once string
literals become contents, if SLY uses string constants
for text button labels.
* lisp/button.el (make-text-button): Use the copy of BEG
uniformly, instead of in just one place. This fixes a typo
introduced in 2020-05-17T05:23:28Z!eggert@cs.ucla.edu.
Problem reported by João Távora in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2020-06/msg00117.html
* lisp/emacs-lisp/comp.el (comp-loop-insn-in-block): New macro.
(comp-call-optim-func, comp-dead-assignments-func)
(comp-remove-type-hints-func): Use `comp-loop-insn-in-block'.
Report and original implementation by Steve Purcell
<steve@sanityinc.com>. See also See
https://github.com/joaotavora/eglot/pull/493 for details
* lisp/jsonrpc.el (initialize-instance): Make process in original
buffer.
(Version): Bump to 1.0.12
* src/xfaces.c (color_distance): Don't throw away the low 8 bits of
the colours, and make the function symmetric (bug41544)
(Fcolor_distance): Add caution about this not being a true metric.
* test/src/xfaces-tests.el: New file.
Problem reported by Daniel Colascione (Bug#41680).
* src/lread.c (read1): Check that AREF (tmp, COMPILED_BYTECODE)
is a string before subjecting it to STRING_MULTIBYTE.
Be more consistent about using AREF in the neighborhood,
to help prevent this sort of problem from recurring.
* src/comp.c (init_gccjit_functions): Use LOAD_DLL_FN_OPT macro to
load gcc_jit_version_major, gcc_jit_version_major and
gcc_jit_version_patchlevel.
* src/w32common.h (LOAD_DLL_FN_OPT): Add macro optionally load a
function from a DLL.
* lisp/progmodes/project.el (project): New custom group.
(project-vc): Use it as parent.
(project-vc-merge-submodules): Tag with Emacs version.
(project-read-file-name-function): Assign to the 'project' group.
(project-list-file): New user option (bug#41600).
(project--write-project-list, project--read-project-list): Use it.
* lisp/language/misc-lang.el (composition-function-table): Reorder
Arabic composition rules in descending order of lookback.
* src/composite.c (syms_of_composite): Document the order of rules
in 'composition-function-table'.
* lisp/progmodes/project.el (project--ensure-file-exists): Remove.
(project--read-project-list): Set 'project--list' to nil when the
project list file doesn't exist.
* doc/lispref/text.texi (Interpolated Strings): Move from here...
* doc/lispref/strings.texi (Custom Format Strings): ...to here,
renaming the node and clarifying the documentation.
(Formatting Strings): End node with sentence referring to the next
one.
* lisp/format-spec.el (format-spec): Clarify docstring.
(project-compile): Add args and interactive spec like in 'compile'.
(project-switch-commands): Bind project-vc-dir to "v",
project-shell to "s", and rebind project-find-regexp from "s" to "r".
* doc/emacs/maintaining.texi (Project File Commands):
Describe project-vc-dir and project-shell.
* src/comp.c (cast_kind_of_type): Enum that specifies the kind of type
in the cast enum (unsigned, signed, pointer).
(emit_coerce): Throw an ICE when asked to emit a cast with sign
extension.
(define_cast_from_to): Return NULL for casts involving sign extension.
(define_cast_functions): Specify the kind of each type in the cast
union.
This is to dump prettier C files.
This does not affect compilation times in my tests.
* src/comp.c: Define a 15x15 cast matrix. Use it in emit_coerce().
For discussion of the autoloaded function declaration, see
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2020-05/msg00910.html.
* lisp/dnd.el (dnd-handle-one-url): It is no longer necessary to
declare the autoloaded function browse-url-select-handler after
ldefs-boot.el was updated.
* lisp/progmodes/elisp-mode.el: Declare xref.el function to silence
byte-compiler.
* lisp/progmodes/xref.el (xref-backend-apropos): Rename this
generic's second arg to PATTERN, to clarify that it should be
handled entirely in the backend, with no pre-processing by the
command.
(xref-find-apropos): Update accordingly, but keep compatibility
with backends in older Emacs versions.
(xref-apropos-regexp): Extract from xref-find-apropos.
* lisp/progmodes/etags.el (xref-backend-apropos): Use it here.
* lisp/progmodes/elisp-mode.el (xref-backend-apropos): And here.
Simplified version of a patch from Pip Cet (Bug#41321#299).
* src/alloc.c (maybe_lisp_pointer): Remove. All uses removed.
(mark_memory): Also look at the pointer offset by ‘lispsym’,
for symbols.
* src/comp.c (emit_static_object): Use a chunck size of 200 bytes
on bugged GCCs and a longer one (1024) in sane ones. Rename
str in buff to disambiguate and prefer xmalloc to a VLA given
the buffer is not that small.
