With the prior commit, the topic_monitor only writes to the pipe if a
thread is known to be waiting. This is effectively a binary semaphore, and
on systems that support anon semaphores (yes Linux, but not Mac) we can use
them. These are more efficient than self-pipes.
We add a binary_semaphore_t class which uses sem_t if sem_init succeeds,
and a self-pipe if it fails.
On Linux the seq_echo benchmark (run 1024 times) goes from 12.40 seconds to
11.59 seconds, about an 11% improvement.
The topic monitor is what allows a thread to wait for any of a set of
events. Events are identified by a bit in a "pending update" mask. Prior to
this fix, post() would atomically set the bit, and if it was newly set,
announce the change by unconditionally writing to a self-pipe. Threads
could wait for new posts by reading from the pipe.
This is less efficient than it could be; in particular if no thread is
waiting on the pipe, then the write() is unnecessary. This slows down our
signal handler.
Change the design in the following way: if a thread is committed to
waiting, then it atomically sets the "pending update" mask (now just called
status) to a sentinel value STATUS_NEEDS_WAKEUP. Then post() will only
write to the self-pipe if it sees that there is a thread waiting. This
reduces the number of syscalls.
The total effect is hardly noticeable (usually there is a thread waiting)
but it will be important for the next commit.
Was: "parameter expansion takes before expressions are evaluated."
Now: "parameter expansion happens before expressions are evaluated."
I suspect the original intent was to use "takes place," but I see "happens" as less idiomatic and therefore may benefit non-English-native users.
It could be nice to use a heuristic for this in future, but for now let's
stick to the old behavior so we can keep formatting scripts without occasional
bad formatting changes.
A heuristic could also be used to break lines after |, && or || but I don't
think there is much need for that at the moment.
Closes#7252
We weren't correctly updating the internal exit generation value. This
meant that if one internal process exits, every other internal process
that has not exited will continually check, leading to 100% CPU usage.
I think this mainly affects concurrent mode, but it may be reproducible
if you have a command which refuses to consume its input.
Prior to this fix, the `exit` command would set a global variable in the
reader, which parse_execution would check. However in concurrent mode you
may have multiple scripts being sourced at once, and 'exit' should only
apply to the current script.
Switch to using a variable in the parser's libdata instead.
This concerns code like the following:
while true ; sleep 100; end
Here 'while' is a "simple block execution" and does not create a new job,
or get a pgid. Each 'sleep' however is an external command execution, and
is treated as a distinct job. (bash is the same way). So `while` and
`sleep` are always in different job groups.
The problem comes about if 'sleep' is cancelled through SIGINT or SIGQUIT.
Prior to 2a4c545b21, if *any* process got a SIGINT or SIGQUIT, then fish
would mark a global "stop executing" variable. This obviously prevents
background execution of fish functions.
In 2a4c545b21, this was changed so only the job's group gets marked as
cancelled. However in the case of one job group spawning another, we
weren't propagating the signal.
This adds a signal to parse_execution_context which the parser checks after
execution. It's not ideal since now we have three different places where
signals can be recorded. However it fixes this regression which is too
important to leave unfixed for long.
Fixes#7259
Might help figuring out where this times out on CI?
We're waiting *20 seconds* for the output to appear, there's no way
that's too slow. So maybe we're going too fast elsewhere?
This used to be used to determine which token contained the cursor, so
as to highlight potential paths. But now we highlight all potential paths,
so we can remove the field.
In practice we didn't use the cache for anything. Always compute it on
demand.
This eliminates the 'indents' variable which had to be manually kept in
sync with the command line.
Also return the number of failed files.
I decided to *just* print the filenames (newline-separated because
NULLs are annoying here) to make it easier to deal with.
See #7251.
New fish_indent does that too, so this will make any future reformatting
diffs smaller.
Done using either of:
perl -pi -e 'undef $/; s/\n*$/\n/' share/**.fish
kak -n -f '<a-/>\n*<ret>d' share/**.fish
This indents continuations after pipes and conjunctions if they contain
a newline.
Example:
cmd1 &&
cmd2
But it avoids the "double indent" if it indented unconditionally:
cmd1 | begin
cmd2
end
More work towards improving #7252
Prior to this change, when emitting gap text (comments, newlines, etc),
fish_indent would use the indentation of the text at the end of the gap.
But this has the wrong result for this case:
begin
command
# comment
end
as the comment would get the indent of the 'end'. Instead use the indent
computed for the gap text itself.
Addresses one case of #7252.
fish's internal completion logic is much smarter than the globbing in this
function, so let's just reuse "complete -C", and filter directories and
files with the given suffix.
Thanks to @Kratacoa for reporting on Gitter.
Using "complete -C" works well no prefix is given. Since in this repository
only the openocd completions pass a prefix, I left the prefix-case as is.
It could probably be improved and simplified as well. The prefix argument was
introduced to avoid cd's side effects inside a completion. Using cd is tempting
though because it would allow to use the same logic as without a prefix.
