Given that bootstrapping and running the testsuite works without
exporting discriminant values as global constants, I conclude that
they're unused and can be removed.
This adds support for performing Unicode Normalization Forms D and KD on strings.
To enable this the decomposition and canonical combining class properties are added to std::unicode.
On my system this increases libstd's size by ~250KiB.
This commit removes the "super_*" functions from
typeck::infer::combine, and adds them as default methods on the
Combine trait instead, making it possible to remove a lot of
boilerplate from the various impls of Combine.
I've been wanting to do this for over a year. In fact, it was my
original motivation for default methods!
It might be possible to tighten things up even more, but this is the
bulk of it.
Linux and Android share the kernel, but not the C library, so sysconf constants are different. For example, _SC_PAGESIZE is 30 on Linux, but 39 on Android.
This patch
* splits sysconf constants to sysconf module
* merges non-MIPS and MIPS sysconf constants (they are same)
* adds Android sysconf constants
This patch also lets mmap tests to pass on Android.
@thestinger and I talked about this in IRC. There are a couple of use
cases for a persistent map, but they aren't common enough to justify
inclusion in libextra and vary enough that they would require multiple
implementations anyways.
In any case, fun_treemap in its current state is basically useless.
Fixed a memory leak caused by the singleton idle callback failing to close correctly. The problem was that the close function requires running inside a callback in the event loop, but we were trying to close the idle watcher after the loop returned from run. The fix was to just call run again to process this callback. There is an additional tweak to move the initialization logic fully into bootstrap, so tasks that do not ever call run do not have problems destructing.
libuv handles are tied to the event loop that created them. In order to perform IO, the handle must be on the thread with its home event loop. Thus, when as task wants to do IO it must first go to the IO handle's home event loop and pin itself to the corresponding scheduler while the IO action is in flight. Once the IO action completes, the task is unpinned and either returns to its home scheduler if it is a pinned task, or otherwise stays on the current scheduler.
Making new blocking IO implementations (i.e. files) thread safe is rather simple. Add a home field to the IO handle's struct in uvio and implement the HomingIO trait. Wrap every IO call in the HomingIO.home_for_io method, which will take care of the scheduling.
I'm not sure if this remains thread safe in the presence of asynchronous IO at the libuv level. If we decide to do that, then this set up should be revisited.
