21 years agoIntroduce two new Configure symbols:
Jarkko Hietaniemi [Mon, 21 Apr 2003 06:50:42 +0000]
Introduce two new Configure symbols:
[1] d_faststdio  = d_stdstdio && d_stdio_ptr_lval &&
                  (d_stdio_cnt_lval || d_stdio_ptr_lval_sets_cnt)
[2] usefaststdio = do we use fast stdio if we have it?
For 5.[68], we do.  For anything else, we don't.
(At least, unless otherwise instructed by -Dusefaststdio.)
This means that for bleadperl we no more use stdio, but instead
default to perlio: the effect of PERLIO=perlio, in other words.
(PERLIO=stdio will still switch to using stdio.)
This change may endanger extensions using FILE*-- but if we are
to migrate fully to perlio, better start swallowing the poison now.
For maintperl, the usefaststdio still defaults to yes.

Fixes to bugs introduced by PL_stashcache
A) Follow suggestion by Benjamin Goldberg to use hv_delete
instead of hv_delete_ent to avoid creating a temporary SV
B) Don't increment the refcount, sneak it into an IV instead
C) When a GP is a deleted that contains a stash, remove the
corresponding entry since hv might be in use in other places.
D) Note that no test cases test the deletion of packages to catch
this bug.

Continue hunting for the cause of the Tru64 failed threaded smokes
most probably introduced by the change #19157.  The tweak suggested
by Stephen McCamant trades a possible dangling pointer (CopFILE()
is tricky like that with threads) to a memory leak.  (This means
that this tweak shouldn't be left in as-is, but if this helps,
we at least know that the failure was caused by the #19157.)

There used to be a nullstash (%{"<none>::"}) to hold illegal
variables under strict 'vars'. It has been removed by change #17942.
This can lead to segfaults during the parsing, because some illegal
