6 years agoTry to avoid strange failures when 1 == 1 doesn't give us PL_sv_yes.
Nicholas Clark [Wed, 21 Jun 2017 20:09:45 +0000]
Try to avoid strange failures when 1 == 1 doesn't give us PL_sv_yes.

The intent of these tests is to confirm that the interpreter variables
PL_sv_undef, PL_sv_no and PL_sv_yes are not reported as part of the size.
It seems that on some older threaded perls with newer versions of
Test::More, we can end up with 1 == 1 not passing PL_sv_yes into
total_size(), presuambly because some code in Test::More has also caused
PL_sv_yes to end up in a pad slot.

The ugly (and possibly fragile) fix seems to be to ensure that our test code
is the first thing to get compiled, by moving the load of Test::More later.

Zefram [Fri, 20 Mar 2015 17:24:06 +0000]
More complete handling of padlists for XSUBs.

[Code by Zefram, commit message by Nicholas]

Following discussion with Zefram on IRC, I agree that his code is more
correct than mine. Prior to the use of the CvPADLIST slot on an XSUB for
binary incompatibility detection, cv_undef() would unconditionally treat
CvPADLIST() as a pointer to a padlist structure (on both PVCVs and PVFMs),
walking it and calling the relevant free functions. Hence on those versions,
CvPADLIST could not be anything other than a legitimate padlist, else the
interpreter would crash. So we should be consistent and calculate the size
on the same basis.

A more robust test for the size of subroutines in packages which import.

A test in t/recurse.t broke because Test::More::is() had been refactored.
Obviously that wasn't correct. Ultimately the problem was because the test
as-was wasn't minimally testing the thing that it was intended to test. It

One of Devel-Size's tests, for a tied scalar visibly growing when the
underlying tie object grows, is failing on Perl 5.19.3 because an earlier

Nicholas Clark [Fri, 10 May 2013 07:25:13 +0000]
Stubbed subs no longer have CvOUTSIDE set.

t/code.t was testing whether Devel::Size was following CvOUTSIDE by relying
on the implementation detail that CvOUTSIDE is set for a subroutine that is
explicitly stubbed, and not set for one that is implicitly stubbed at runtime.

v5.17.0 changed the compile-time behaviour so that no stubbed subroutine has
CvOUTSIDE set, which breaks the assumption of this test. Hence change the test
to verify the new behaviour. However, this leaves us currently with no test
for CvOUTSIDE.

(Based on a patch by Zefram. see RT #83903 and perl's commit 8be227ab5eaa23f2)

10 years agoDon't follow CvSTART() if CvROOT() is NULL.
Zefram [Fri, 10 May 2013 07:09:58 +0000]
Don't follow CvSTART() if CvROOT() is NULL.

For v5.17.2, blead switched to a slab allocator for OPs. During subroutine
compilation, the CV's slab is held in CvSTART(), to avoid extending every
PVCV by one more pointer. Once compilation is complete, the optree slab
pointer becomes accessible at an offset from CvROOT(), and CvSTART() is
set to point to the first OP. However, in some cases, PVCVs in the incomplete
state can become visible to Devel::Size, for example by following the
CvOUTSIDE() from BEGIN blocks. So we need to ignore CvSTART() if CvROOT() is
NULL. (Arguably we should always ignore CvSTART(), as the OP that it points to
should be accessible somewhere in the tree referenced by CvROOT(), but that
change can wait for a later date)

12 years agoDon't recurse into op_size() on op->pmnext.
Nicholas Clark [Sun, 8 May 2011 07:38:02 +0000]
Don't recurse into op_size() on op->pmnext.

It doesn't point to an OP owned by the current OP - it is used to form a linked
list that reset uses to find regexps to reset. Moreover, prior to 5.8.0 it can
end up pointing to freed memory, which results in much jollity.

12 years agoAdd -DPURIFY sizes to body_sizes[]
Nicholas Clark [Fri, 6 May 2011 19:07:10 +0000]
Add -DPURIFY sizes to body_sizes[]

Use two macros to simplify the logic - MAYBE_OFFSET() where the normal version
subtracts a STRUCT_OFFSET(), and the purify version subtracts nothing, and
MAYBE_PURIFY() where there is not a simple relationship between the two sizes.

For other-than-gcc, generate calls to check_new(...)

Only use a static array of vtables on gcc. Some other compilers may be happy
with it, but VC certainly isn't. It's only trivial to determine gcc or not.

eval $ExtUtils::MakeMaker::VERSION to avoid warnings about _ not being numeric.

Frustratingly ExtUtils::MakeMaker->VERSION() returns the literal value of
$ExtUtils::MakeMaker::VERSION so it's just as "not numeric" as reading the
scalar directly.
