2016-12-30 | Updated package to latest version, ocaml 4.04.0. This involved removing | jaapb | 18 | -562/+453 | |
some patches that have been migrated upstream. Changes (bug numbers removed so they don't trigger our system) include: (Changes that can break existing programs are marked with a "*") ### Language features: - Support GADT equations on non-local abstract types (Jacques Garrigue) - Local opening of modules in a pattern. Syntax: "M.(p)", "M.[p]","M.[| p |]", "M.{p}" (Florian Angeletti, Jacques Garrigue, review by Alain Frisch) - local exception declarations "let exception ... in" (Alain Frisch) - Allow shortcut for extension on semicolons: ;%foo (Jeremie Dimino) - optimized representation for immutable records with a single field, and concrete types with a single constructor with a single argument. This is triggered with a [@@unboxed] attribute on the type definition. Currently mutually recursive datatypes are not well supported, this limitation should be lifted in the future (see M). (Damien Doligez) ### Compiler user-interface and warnings: * interpret all command-line options before compiling any files, changes (improves) the semantics of repeated -o options or -o combined with -c see the super-detailed commit message at https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml/commit/da56cf6dfdc13c09905c2e07f1d4849c8346eec8 (whitequark) - clarify the wording of Warning 38 (Unused exception or extension constructor) (Gabriel Scherer) * add colors when reporting errors generated by ppx rewriters. Remove the `Location.errorf_prefixed` function which is no longer relevant (Simon Cruanes, Jérémie Dimino) - clarify the wording of Warning 8 (Non-exhaustivity warning for pattern matching) (Florian Angeletti, review and report by Gabriel Scherer) * Improve support for OCAMLPARAM: (i) do not use objects files with -a, -pack, -shared; (ii) use "before" objects in the toplevel (but not "after" objects); (iii) use -I dirs in the toplevel, (iv) fix bug where -I dirs were ignored when using threads (Marc Lasson, review by Damien Doligez and Alain Frisch) - New -plugin option for ocamlc and ocamlopt, to dynamically extend the compilers at runtime. (Fabrice Le Fessant) - Detect unused module declarations (Alain Frisch) - Add a settable Env.Persistent_signature.load function so that cmi files can be loaded from other sources. This can be used to create self-contained toplevels. (Jérémie Dimino) ### Standard library: - Provide `Sys.backend_type` so that user can write backend-specific code in some cases (for example, code generator). (Hongbo Zhang) - implement Set.map (Gabriel Scherer) - Add Obj.reachable_words to compute the "transitive" heap size of a value (Alain Frisch, review by Mark Shinwell and Damien Doligez) - Add a non-allocating function to recover the number of allocated minor words. (Pierre Chambart, review by Damien Doligez and Gabriel Scherer) - String.split_on_char (Alain Frisch) - Filename.extension and Filename.remove_extension (Alain Frisch, request by Edgar Aroutiounian, review by Daniel Bunzli and Damien Doligez) ### Code generation and optimizations: - Optimize Hashtbl by using in-place updates of its internal bucket lists. All operations run in constant stack size and are usually faster, except Hashtbl.copy which can be much slower (Alain Frisch) * Optimize performance of record update: no more performance cliff when { foo with t1 = ..; t2 = ...; ... } hits 6 updated fields (Olivier Nicole, review by Thomas Braibant and Pierre Chambart) - Better unboxing strategy (Alain Frisch, Pierre Chambart) - Ocamlopt + flambda requires a lot of memory to compile large array literal expressions (Pierre Chambart, review by Mark Shinwell) - Handle specialisation of recursive function that does not always preserve the arguments (Pierre Chambart, Mark Shinwell, report by Simon Cruanes) - Obj.is_block is now an inlined OCaml function instead of a C external. This should be faster. (Demi Obenour) - Optimize immutable float records (Pierre Chambart, review by Mark Shinwell) - Do not generate dummy code to force module linking (Pierre Chambart, reviewed by Jacques Garrigue) - Do not eliminate boxed int divisions by zero and avoid checking twice if divisor is zero with flambda. (Pierre Chambart, report by Jeremy Yallop) - Optimize some constant string operations when the "-safe-string" configure time option is enabled. (Pierre Chambart) - Load cross module information during a meet (Pierre Chambart, report by Leo White, review by Mark Shinwell) - Share a few more equal switch branches (Pierre Chambart, review by Gabriel Scherer) - Small improvements to type-based optimizations for array and lazy (Alain Frisch, review by Pierre Chambart) - Prevent warning 59 from triggering on Lazy of constants (Pierre Chambart, review by Leo White) - Sort emitted functions according to source location (Pierre Chambart, review by Mark Shinwell) - Lack of type normalization lead to missing simple compilation for "lazy x" (Alain Frisch) ### Runtime system: - Allows to register finalisation function that are called only when a value will never be reachable anymore. The drawbacks compared to the existing one is that the finalisation function is not called with the value as argument. These finalisers are registered with `GC.finalise_last` (François Bobot reviewed by Damien Doligez and Leo White) - Do not perform compaction if the real overhead is less than expected (Thomas Braibant) ### Tools: - toplevel #show, follow chains of module aliases (Gabriel Scherer, report by Daniel Bünzli, review by Thomas Refis) - have ocamldep interpret -open arguments in left-to-right order (Gabriel Scherer, report by Anton Bachin) - ocamldoc, missing line breaks in type_*.html files (Florian Angeletti) - ocamldoc, improved support for inline records (Florian Angeletti) - ensure "ocamllex -ml" works with -safe-string (Hongbo Zhang) - ocamldoc, add viewport metadata to generated html pages (Florian Angeletti, request by Daniel Bünzli) - Make the output of ocamldep more stable (Alain Frisch) - empty documentation comments (Florian Angeletti) - Add the -no-version option to the toplevel (Sébastien Hinderer) - Add a --strict option to ocamlyacc treat conflicts as errors (this option is now used for the compiler's parser) (Jeremy Yallop) - make ocamldoc use -open arguments (Florian Angeletti) - ocamldoc, fix order of extensible variant constructors (Florian Angeletti) ### Debugging and profiling: - Spacetime, a new memory profiler (Mark Shinwell, Leo White) ### Runtime system: - Add a new primitive caml_alloc_float_array to allocate an array of floats (Thomas Braibant) ### Manual and documentation: - document the existence of OCAMLPARAM and ocaml_compiler_internal_params (Damien Doligez, reports by Wim Lewis and Gabriel Scherer) - warn users against using WinZip to unpack the source archive (Damien Doligez, report by Shayne Fletcher) - clarification to the wording and documentation of Warning 52 (fragile constant pattern) (Gabriel Scherer, William, Adrien Nader, Jacques Garrigue) - Restore 4.02.3 behaviour of Unix.fstat, if the file descriptor doesn't wrap a regular file (win32unix only) (Andreas Hauptmann, review by David Allsopp) - flatten : Avoid confusion (Damien Doligez, report by user 'tormen') - Gc.finalise and lazy values (Jeremy Yallop) - Document that [Store_field] must not be used to populate arrays of values declared using [CAMLlocalN] (Mark Shinwell) ### Build system: - Compiler developers: Adding new primitives to the standard runtime doesn't require anymore to run `make bootstrap` (François Bobot) - Fix compilation using old Microsoft C Compilers not supporting secure CRT functions (SDK Visual Studio 2005 compiler and earlier) and standard 64-bit integer literals (Visual Studio .NET 2002 and earlier) (David Allsopp) - More sharing between Unix and Windows makefiles (whitequark, review by Alain Frisch) * Installed `ocamlc`, `ocamlopt`, and `ocamllex` are now the native-code versions of the tools, if those versions were built. (Demi Obenour) - "./configure -safe-string" to get a system where "-unsafe-string" is not allowed, thus giving stronger non-local guarantees about immutability of strings (Alain Frisch, review by Hezekiah M. Carty) ### Bug fixes: * Missed Type-error leads to a segfault upon record access. (Jacques Garrigue, extra report by Stephen Dolan) Proper fix required a more restrictive approach to recursive types: mutually recursive types are seen as abstract types (i.e. non-contractive) when checking the well-foundedness of the recursion. * Nominal types and scope escaping. Revert to strict scope for non-generalizable type variables, cf. Mantis. Note that this is actually stricter than the behavior before 4.03, cf. , meaning that you may sometimes need to add type annotations to explicitly instantiate non-generalizable type variables. (Jacques Garrigue, following discussion with Jeremy Yallop, Nicolas Ojeda Bar and Alain Frisch) - Aliased arguments ignored for equality of module types (Jacques Garrigue, report by Leo White) - compiler forcing aliases it shouldn't while reporting type errors (Jacques Garrigue, report and suggestion by sliquister) - document that Unix.SOCK_SEQPACKET is not really usable. - uncaught exception on invalid lexer directive (Gabriel Scherer, report by KC Sivaramakrishnan using afl-fuzz) - revert a 4.03 change of behavior on (Unix.sleep 0.), it now calls (nano)sleep for 0 seconds as in (< 4.03) versions. (Hannes Mehnert, review by Damien Doligez) - GADT + subtyping compile time crash (Jacques Garrigue, report by Nicolas Ojeda Bar) - Segfault from conjunctive constraints in GADT (Jacques Garrigue, report by Stephen Dolan) - Support more than FD_SETSIZE sockets in Windows' emulation of select (David Scott, review by Alain Frisch) * Prevent private inline records from being mutated (Alain Frisch, report by Pierre Chambart) - Bug in mcomp_fields leads to segfault (Jacques Garrigue, report by Leo White) - Relaxed value restriction broken with principal (Jacques Garrigue, report by Leo White) - -strict-sequence turns off Warning 21 (Jacques Garrigue, report by Valentin Gatien-Baron) - remove access to OCaml heap inside blocking section in win32unix (David Allsopp, report by Andreas Hauptmann) - remove access to OCaml heap inside blocking in Unix.sleep on Windows (David Allsopp) - -principal causes loop in type checker when compiling (Jacques Garrigue, report by Anil Madhavapeddy, analysis by Leo White) - Missing exhaustivity check for extensible variant (Jacques Garrigue, report by Elarnon *) - Contractiveness check unsound with constraints (Jacques Garrigue, report by Leo White) - GADT constructors can be re-exposed with an incompatible type (Jacques Garrigue, report by Alain Frisch) - Unsoundness in GADT exhaustiveness with existential variables (Jacques Garrigue, report by Stephen Dolan) * Thread library: fixed [Thread.wait_signal] so that it converts back the signal number returned by [sigwait] to an OS-independent number (Jérémie Dimino) - (similar to ) ensure that register typing constraints are respected at N-way join points in the control flow graph (Mark Shinwell) - Fix float_of_hex parser to correctly reject some invalid forms (Bogdan Tătăroiu, review by Thomas Braibant and Alain Frisch) - Fix maximum weak bucket size (Nicolas Ojeda Bar, review by François Bobot) - Allow more module aliases in strengthening (Leo White) - Fix wrong code generation involving lazy values in Flambda mode (Mark Shinwell, review by Pierre Chambart and Alain Frisch) - Fix infinite loop in flambda due to [@@specialise] annotations - Building native runtime on Windows could fail when bootstrapping FlexDLL if there was also a system-installed flexlink (David Allsopp, report Michael Soegtrop) - check for integer overflow in String.concat (Jeremy Yallop, review by Damien Doligez, Alain Frisch, Daniel Bünzli, Fabrice Le Fessant) - check for integer overflow in Array.concat (Jeremy Yallop) - fix the Buffer.add_substring bounds check to handle overflow (Jeremy Yallop) - Fix [@@inline] with default parameters in flambda (Leo White) - fix build on OpenIndiana (Sergey Avseyev, review by Damien Doligez) ### Internal/compiler-libs changes: - Improve, fix, and add test for parsing/pprintast.ml (Runhang Li, David Sheets, Alain Frisch) - make driver/pparse.ml functions type-safe (Gabriel Scherer, Dmitrii Kosarev, review by Jérémie Dimino) - Improve Texp_record constructor representation, and propagate updated record type information (Pierre Chambart, review by Alain Frisch) - Graphics.close_graph crashes 64-bit Windows ports (re-implementation of ) (David Allsopp) - delay registration of docstring after the mapper is applied (Hugo Heuzard, review by Leo White) - don't attach (**/**) comments to any particular node (Thomas Refis, review by Leo White) | |||||
2016-11-04 | lang/ocaml: regenerate checksum for configure patch | marino | 1 | -2/+2 | |
distinfo from cvs: trusted to convey hashes patches from same cvs: untrusted thus require hashes to verify absurdness: Any intruder that can modify the patch in cvs can also modify the distinfo file. Only externally hosted patches require hashes. Hopefully some day thousands of future commits to distinfo files everywhere can be avoided by making the framework smarter. </rant> | |||||

2015-06-30 | Updated lang/ocaml to newest version 4.02.2. Changes apart from bugfixes | jaapb | 19 | -172/+139 | |
include: - #6583: add a new class of binary operators with the same syntactic precedence as method calls; these operators start with # followed by a non-empty sequence of operator symbols (for instance #+, #!?). It is also possible to use '#' as part of these extra symbols (for instance ##, or #+#); this is rejected by the type-checker, but can be used e.g. by ppx rewriters. * #6016: add a "nonrec" keyword for type declarations - #6600: make -short-paths faster by building the printing map incrementally - #6642: replace $CAMLORIGIN in -ccopt with the path to cma or cmxa to output an object file with included runtime and autolink libraries - #6845: -no-check-prims to tell ocamlc not to check primitives in runtime - G#149: Attach documentation comments to parse tree - G#159: Better locations for structure/signature items - #5958: generalized polymorphic #install_printer - #6237: explicit "infer" tag to control or disable menhir --infer - #6625: pass -linkpkg to files built with -output-obj. - #6712: Ignore common VCS directories - #6720: pass -g to C compilers when tag 'debug' is set - #6733: add .byte.so and .native.so targets to pass -output-obj -cclib -shared. - #6733: "runtime_variant(X)" to pass -runtime-variant X option. - #6774: new menhir-specific flags "only_tokens" and "external_tokens(Foo)" - #6285: Add support for nanosecond precision in Unix.stat() - #6781: Add higher baud rates to Unix termios - #6834: Add Obj.{first,last}_non_constant_constructor_tag - #6078: Release the runtime system when calling caml_dlopen - #6675: GC hooks - #5418 (comments) : generate dependencies with $(CC) instead of gcc - #6266: Cross compilation for iOs, Android etc - Update instructions for x86-64 PIC mode and POWER architecture builds - #6452, G#140: add internal suport for custom printing formats - #6641: add -g, -ocamlcflags, -ocamloptflags options to ocamlmklib - #6693: also build libasmrun_shared.so and lib{asm,caml}run_pic.a - #6842: export Typemod.modtype_of_package - G#139: more versatile specification of locations of .annot - G#157: store the path of cmos inside debug section at link time - G#191: Making gc.h and some part of memory.h public | |||||

ocaml has a twisty maze of ifdefs to define signal handler types and obtain the faulting address.

also upstream changelog): Language features: - Attributes and extension nodes - Generative functors - Module aliases * Alternative syntax for string literals {id|...|id} (can break comments) - Separation between read-only strings (type string) and read-write byte sequences (type bytes). Activated by command-line option -safe-string. Build system for the OCaml distribution: - Use -bin-annot when building. - Use GNU make instead of portable makefiles. - Updated build instructions for 32-bit Mac OS X on Intel hardware. Shedding weight: * Removed Camlp4 from the distribution, now available as third-party software. * Removed Labltk from the distribution, now available as a third-party library. Type system: * Keep typing of pattern cases independent in principal mode - Allow opening a first-class module or applying a generative functor in the body of a generative functor. Allow it also in the body of an applicative functor if no types are created * Module aliases are now typed in a specific way, which remembers their identity. In particular this changes the signature inferred by "module type of" - Slight change in the criterion to distinguish private abbreviations and private row types: create a private abbreviation for closed objects and fixed polymorphic variants. * Compare first class module types structurally rather than nominally. Value subtyping allows module subtyping as long as the internal representation is unchanged. Compilers: - More aggressive constant propagation, including float and int32/int64/nativeint arithmetic. Constant propagation for floats can be turned off with option -no-float-const-prop, for codes that change FP rounding modes at run-time. - New back-end optimization pass: common subexpression elimination (CSE). (Reuses results of previous computations instead of recomputing them.) - New back-end optimization pass: dead code elimination. (Removes arithmetic and load instructions whose results are unused.) - Optimization of sequences of string patterns - Experimental native code generator for AArch64 (ARM 64 bits) - Optimization of integer division and modulus by constant divisors - Add "-open" command line flag for opening a single module before typing * "-o" now sets module name to the output file name up to the first "." (it also applies when "-o" is not given, i.e. the module name is then the input file name up to the first ".") * better sharing of structured constants - new flag to keep locations in cmi files - issue warning 3 when referring to a value marked with the [@@ocaml.deprecated] attribute - a new format implementation based on GADTs * Constant exception constructors no longer allocate - avoid unnecessary boxing in let - Better compilation of optional arguments with default values - ocamlopt -opaque option for incremental native compilation Toplevel interactive system: - New "#show_*" directives Runtime system: - New configure option "-no-naked-pointers" to improve performance by avoiding page table tests during block darkening and the marking phase of the major GC. In this mode, all out-of-heap pointers must point at things that look like OCaml values: in particular they must have a valid header. The colour of said headers should be black. - Fixed bug in native code version of [caml_raise_with_string] that could potentially lead to heap corruption. - Blocks initialized by [CAMLlocal*] and [caml_alloc] are now filled with [Val_unit] rather than zero. - Fixed a major performance problem on large heaps (~1GB) by making heap increments proportional to heap size by default - Structural equality treats exception specifically - efficient comparison/indexing of exceptions - avoid using unsafe C library functions (strcpy, strcat, sprintf) - An ISO C99-compliant C compiler and standard library is now assumed. (Plus special exceptions for MSVC.) In particular, emulation code for 64-bit integer arithmetic was removed, the C compiler must support a 64-bit integer type. Standard library: * Add new modules Bytes and BytesLabels for mutable byte sequences. - add List.sort_uniq and Set.of_list - a faster version of "raise" which does not maintain the backtrace - support "Unix.kill pid Sys.sigkill" under Windows - speed improvement for Buffer - efficient creation of uninitialized float arrays - Improve documentation regarding finalisers and multithreading - Trigger warning 3 for all values marked as deprecated in the documentation. | |||||
