* 500Kartik K. Agaram2015-01-021-1/+1

* 497 - strengthen the concept of 'space'Kartik K. Agaram2015-01-021-83/+83
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'default-scope' is now 'default-space' 'closure-generator' is now 'next-space-generator' The connection to high-level syntax for closures is now tenuous, so we'll call the 'outer scope' the 'next space'. So, let's try to create a few sentences with all these related ideas: Names map to addresses offset from a default-space when it's provided. Spaces can be strung together. The zeroth variable points to the next space, the one that is accessed when a variable has /space:1. To map a name to an address in the next space, you need to know what function generated that space. A corollary is that the space passed in to a function should always be generated by a single function. Spaces can be used to construct lexical scopes and objects.
* 475 - support symbol literals, just as a convenienceKartik K. Agaram2014-12-311-0/+8

* 468 - slice test time by 65%Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-301-5/+5
| | | | | We achieve this by separating out the freezing of system software, which we needed to do anyway to address the duplication in 'init-fn'.
* 467 - 'convert-names' now supports space metadataKartik K. Agaram2014-12-301-0/+32
| | | | | | | | | To inform it about space metadata you have to tag environments with the function that generated them. Every function can only ever be called with environments generated by a single function. As an assembly-like language, mu requires closures to be called with an explicit environment, but it warns when the environment might not be what the function expects.
* 464 - reply broken in channel 'write'Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-301-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | How did this work until now? The reply was being treated as a label, and if 'write' returned nothing it would still work fine because the output is already present, and a missing 'reply' leaves oargs as-is. Should we do something to catch this? Perhaps we should track args modified and check that there are oargs for them. But that seems quite heavyweight.. Maybe we should clear oargs when missing a 'reply'?
* 463 - mu now has closuresKartik K. Agaram2014-12-301-0/+29
|
* 461 - create room for an index '0' in scopesKartik K. Agaram2014-12-291-20/+29
| | | | This wasn't working until I fixed 459.
* 457 - finally, redirection worksKartik K. Agaram2014-12-281-8/+30
| | | | | No need for a separate channels array; just pass channels in globals. The global space is a superset of unix's fd array.
* 456 - routines can now have routine globalsKartik K. Agaram2014-12-281-3/+20
| | | | But we don't do nonsense like copy all state from the parent routine.
* 453Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-281-29/+29
|
* 451 - start of support for per-routine globalsKartik K. Agaram2014-12-271-0/+23
|
* 448Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-261-10/+10
|
* 447 - function invocations can share localsKartik K. Agaram2014-12-261-0/+27
| | | | | This is the first step to creating closures. That requires specifying the lexical scope 'frame' to read a variable from.
* 446Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-251-2/+18
| | | | | | | | Clear up that ancient todo. We don't particularly care about what abstraction we write tests at, as long as we do so at *some* layer and document the intent. That lets us move tests up or down in the future when we know more/have better taste.
* 445Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-251-0/+2
|
* 444 - bring back dispatch based on operand/result typesKartik K. Agaram2014-12-241-2/+94
| | | | | | | | | | | Was dropped in commit 149. But we need it for more convenient overloading, especially now that the right way to build tagged-values is unclear. The original concern was that type/otype would make code harder to 'assemble' down to native. But we should be able to insert CALL instructions to the right clause inside a function's code. So keep it around in the toolbox.
* 442 - string 'split'Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-191-0/+86

* 441 - string 'find-next' for charactersKartik K. Agaram2014-12-191-0/+88

* 438 - unbelievable typoKartik K. Agaram2014-12-171-0/+6
|
* 436 - types* table can now contain integer-array:3, etc.Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-171-32/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Biggest change was to the interface to the 'sizeof' helper. Where it used to accept either a type symbol or a cons operand, it now always accepts an operand, though the value of the operand can be _. In the process the implementation is radically simpler. Also reorg'd unit tests a little, putting those for 'deref' before 'sizeof'. Finally, I'm giving in and enabling the printing of test names as they're run. We still need this all the time in our surgery.
* 435 - starting to allow type definitionsKartik K. Agaram2014-12-171-0/+10

* 434Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-171-2/+2

|
* 431 - rename 'record' (struct) to 'and-record'Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-171-14/+14
| | | | Now we can call unions 'or-record'.
* 430 - cache common functions for testsKartik K. Agaram2014-12-151-0/+2
| | | | Tests now take 21s instead of 76s, reclaiming recent losses and more.
* 427 - ..and we're back. All mu.arc.t tests passing.Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-141-126/+136

* 424 - layer 20 passingKartik K. Agaram2014-12-141-650/+666
| | | | Seemingly large diff but most changes are peephole.
* 422Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-141-6/+7
| | | | Further cleanup of convert-names tests.
* 421Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-141-0/+4
|
* 420 - no unnecessary structure in testsKartik K. Agaram2014-12-141-84/+83
| | | | It makes them harder to appreciate.
* 419 - layer 11 now passingKartik K. Agaram2014-12-141-30/+46
|
* 418 - more progress in layer 11Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-141-62/+30
| | | | | | | | | With the notion of layers we add the constraint of only being able to formulate loop tests without 'run' -- otherwise they'd have to leave layer 11 because they have so many more dependencies. Might bring back the run-based tests afresh later. Especially since loop-fail test is now totally gone.
* 417 - partially through layer 11Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-141-191/+197

* 408Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-131-15/+15
| | | | Within a level we can now just rely on simple ordering.
* 406 - mu tests run at level 10Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-131-28/+12
| | | | We're now going to start doing surgery on low-level helpers.
* 405 - permit loading just low levels of codebaseKartik K. Agaram2014-12-131-1/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I'm doing extensive surgery to the internals I want to avoid loading higher levels; they aren't expected to work. But I don't want to keep different levels in separate files just for that. And I definitely don't want to put low-level stuff first. Now I can influence loading in a cross-cutting manner by creating sections with numbers: (section 100 ...code...) And disabling them by running: $ ./anarki/arc 99 mu.arc.t Currently we load all mu 'system software' in level 100, so running at level 99 sidesteps them. Lower levels coming soon. But most of the time we don't need to worry about levels, and the 'mu' script lets us forget about them. Just run .mu files with: $ ./mu factorial.mu To run tests: $ ./mu test mu.arc.t
* 403 - 'function' is more clear than 'def'Kartik K. Agaram2014-12-121-164/+164

* 401 - stop abbreviating opsKartik K. Agaram2014-12-121-73/+73
| | | | | We expect users to come across mu from arbitrary bits of code, so try to make each line as self-contained as possible.
* 398 - new space for forked routinesKartik K. Agaram2014-12-041-27/+27
| | | | | Hack: currently restricted to 1000 locations per routine, no way to grow past that. That suffices to pass our failing test.
* 397 - routines encapsulate allocator stateKartik K. Agaram2014-12-041-96/+118
| | | | Still incomplete; one test temporarily disabled.
