Worth including because mold is rather popular in the rust world and because the
bug affects mold versions coincident with the development of the fish rust port.
The bug affects all currently released versions of mold from 2.30.0 (Mar 2024)
onwards under at least FreeBSD (though quite likely other platforms as well).
See https://github.com/rui314/mold/issues/1338 for reference.
Prior to this commit, there was a stack of ReaderDatas, each one has a
reference to a Parser (same Parser in each, for now). However, the current
ReaderData is globally accessible. Because it holds a Parser, effectively
anything can run fish script; this also prevents us from making the Parser
&mut.
Split these up. Create ReaderData, which holds the data portion of the
reader machinery, and then create Reader which holds a ReaderData and a
Parser. Now `reader_current_data()` can only return the data itself; it
cannot execute fish script.
This results in some other nice simplifications.
ThreadId is way slower than it should be for the sense that we use it in; it
doesn't cache the id and allocates an Arc internally.
We don't care about the thread id used in crate::threads correlating with any
other thread id the code uses anywhere (not that it does) because it's only used
for our own bookkeeping. Change to something much simpler instead.
Verified that std::sync::OnceLock<T> compiles to the same assembly at the
*access* site as the Option<T> we were using. The additional overhead upon init
is fine. No need for extra Box<T> indirection for IO_THREAD_POOL.
Don't force the internal use of `RefCell<T>`, let the caller place that into
`MainThread<>` manually. This lets us remove the reference to `MainThread<>`
from the definition of `Screen` again and reduces the number of
`assert_is_main_thread()` calls.
This allows us to get the terminfo information without linking against curses.
That means we can get by without a bunch of awkward C-API trickery.
There is no global "cur_term" kept by a library for us that we need to invalidate.
Note that it still requires a "unhashed terminfo database", and I don't know how well it handles termcap.
I am not actually sure if there are systems that *can't* have terminfo, everything I looked at
has the ncurses terminfo available to install at least.
