Tags: patch

Attached is a proposed patch that follows on to the Bug#13650
fixes, by simplifying the code to remove most of the
data_start stuff, which is obsolete.  This affects the
Windows port so I'm CC:ing this to Eli.

This patch is to Emacs trunk bzr 111855.

Could you please explain more about what this is intended to
accomplish?  Some things seem wrong (a few specific comments below),
but I don't feel I understand this enough to suggest better/more
correct ways to do what you want.  E.g., are we removing the
data-start thing on all platforms where GCPRO is a no-op, i.e. those
which support USE_LSB_TAG?

This part is wrong: unexcoff.c is used only by the MSDOS build, but
get_data_start is defined in w32heap.c, which is for the MS-Windows
build.  I'm not sure how to DTRT here (see above); all I can say at
this point is that the MSDOS build currently defines DATA_START, see
msdos/sed2v2.inp, and that definition is then used in start_of_data.

Should platforms that HAVE_DATA_START initialize data_start to some
value?  Should _all_ platforms do that?  If not, which ones should?

This needs corresponding changes in ralloc.c, I think, at least for
consistency if nothing else.

Likewise.

Thanks.

Mostly, it's simplification.  There's a lot of cruft in there, about
linking Emacs specially and so forth, that was needed way back when we
made pure space read-only but is now no longer needed.

USE_LSB_TAG is a different thing.  The patch omits data_start on hosts
that use the system malloc, since data_start is now needed only on
hosts where GNU Emacs supplies malloc.

USE_LSB_TAG is more closely related to DATA_SEG_BITS, but that
is not changed by this patch.

> Should platforms that HAVE_DATA_START initialize data_start to some

No, data_start's contents are irrelevant.  Only its address matters.
On GNU hosts the linker supplies the address automatically;
on non-GNU hosts we approximate it by declaring a
variable whose contents don't matter.

Done in trunk bzr 111859, which simplifies the attached patch.
Revised patch attached, relative to trunk bzr 111859.

Thanks for catching that.  I'll fix that as follows;
this fix is contained in the attached patch.

You mean, gmalloc?  How does that come into play?

It seems like data_start and data_size derived from it matter only
when displaying memory usage warnings -- is that correct?  If so, why
doesn't this matter when system malloc is used?

The MS-Windows build computes data_start and data_size inside
unexw32.c at dump time -- is that good enough?  (I'm asking because
your change doesn't touch the Windows build.)

Thanks.

With the patch, data_start is used only by vm-limit.c.
And vm-limit.c is compiled only when using gmalloc,
as its isn't valid when using a system malloc.

Yes.

> If so, why doesn't this matter when system malloc is used?

When the system malloc is used Emacs can't warn about low memory,
because it has no way of knowing when memory is low.

Yes, it should be, but that points out a problem with the latest
patch -- it should use DATA_START for MS platforms.  Here's a further
patch to fix that, and I'm attaching the resulting combined patch,
relative to trunk bzr 111860.

-that is already in use in your configuration to supply some other libraries,
-be careful not to lose the others.

-#define LIBS_SYSTEM -lresolv
-
-Then if this gives you an error for redefining a macro, and you see that

I see, thanks.

Thanks.

I suggest to use DATA_START here (which is defined to '&etext + 1' by
msdos/sed2v2.inp).

Thanks, I did that and installed the fix as trunk bzr 111870.
