David Mitchell [Sat, 27 Mar 2010 18:07:30 +0000]
RT #73714: Regression in 5.12: File::Copy and initial spaces

Commit 81ec4fbc8320b72171c9fbea0fa0456b3a687f92
removed some obsolete code that processed with leading spaces in filenames
(not needed with 3-arg open), but didn't quite clean out everything.
This meant that trying to copy to a file whose name had a leading space
would unceremoniously die with
    Undefined subroutine &File::Copy::_protect called

14 years agoUpdate Porting/checkAUTHORS.pl to (once again) distinguish authors from committers...
Craig A. Berry [Sat, 27 Mar 2010 17:52:33 +0000]
Update Porting/checkAUTHORS.pl to (once again) distinguish authors from committers by processing git log --pretty=fuller, e.g.,

% git log --pretty=fuller perl-5.12.0..HEAD \
? | perl Porting/checkAUTHORS.pl --rank --percentage -

Without this, the --rank and --thanks-applied options were not working.

Also, the meaning of --thanks-applied has changed somewhat; it now only counts
commits where the committer is not the author.

[This commit is the delta between Craig's previous patch and his revised
patch]

[perl #73720] opt_scalarhv(or OP_BOOLKEYS) does not work

An optimisation for %hash in boolean context, as introduced with

    867fa1e2da145229b4db2c6e8d5b51700c15f114

could falsely optimise constructs that shoudn't be.

Original bug report and fix suggestion were by Goro Fuji.

Include a test to cover the case which was mis-optimised (although
coverage still seems low to me).

Additionally correct B::Deparse (just swap a line, it was using a

Nicholas Clark [Thu, 11 Mar 2010 14:08:07 +0000]
Fix stringification assumption bug in overload.t, revealed by ia64-linux-ld.

Specifically:
1: / returns and NV where possible, only returning an integer if the dividend
   is an integer larger than an NV can represent accurately, and integer
   division is exact (ie no fractional part/remainder).
2: The test is performing $ref/1, intending it to be an identity operation
   on the numeric value of the reference.
3: The test assumes that the return result of the division will be a number
   that stringifies identically to the integer value of the reference.

The fails if both:

1: The system memory map is such that addresses are very large (ia64 does)
2: NVs are large enough to hold these addresses

because then the address becomes converted to an NV which has sufficient
decimal digits that stringification defaults to scientific notation.

Itanium Linux users the world over will be cheering because they can now
compile Perl with long doubles with confidence that all tests pass.

[perl #72740]: Blead breaks LEMBARK/LinkedList-Single-0.99.1.tar.gz

f7461760003db2ce68155c97ea6c1658e96fcd27 improved the PL_check hook for
bareword subs, but broke the above module. This is Zefram's followup:

The issue is that speculative function lookups were leaving detritus
consisting of empty GVs in the stash.  These didn't affect normal
functioning, but code that looks inside the stash could see them, and
code that makes unreliable assumptions about the format of the stash
can be broken.  This is the same general mode of failure that we saw
with namespace::clean.

LinkedList-Single's failing test was using direct stash access poorly,
in a way that made for a poor test, quite apart from making too many
assumptions about stash structure.  In the latest version of the package,
0.99.6, the test has been changed to a much better form, which actually
tests what it meant to and incidentally doesn't read the stash at all.

Although they don't affect normal functioning, the empty GVs shouldn't
be there.  It's much like the upgraded constant subs, which we concluded
ought to be downgraded when the upgraded form is no longer required,
in order to save memory.  The solution here is similar: delete the
empty GV when it is detected that a real GV is no longer required.
The present patch does this at the same time as checking for constant-sub
downgradability.
