[PATCH 0/4] Add module depth information to %load-verbosely output

[PATCH 0/4] Add module depth information to %load-verbosely output

[Maxim Cournoyer]

This change was made to support investigating cyclic module dependencies
that sometimes happen in GNU Guix and are difficult to
comprehend/debug.  For more context, see:
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/65716>.


Maxim Cournoyer (4):
  (ice-9 boot-9): Fix typo.
  .dir-locals: Set c-basic-offset to 2 for c-mode.
  guix.scm: Update guile package native inputs.
  load: Display modules depth in output when using %load-verbosely.

[PATCH 4/4] load: Display modules depth in output when using %load-verbosely.

[Maxim Cournoyer]

* NEWS: Update news.
* THANKS: Add myself.
* doc/guile-api.alist (%load-announce, %load-hook): Add DEPTH argument.
* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi (Loading): Document new
DEPTH argument for the primitive-load, primitive-load-path and
%load-hook procedures.  Update %load-hook example.  Document
%load-verbosely.
* libguile/load.c (scm_loc_load_hook): Update doc.
(hook_args_data): New struct.
(call_hook_2_body, call_hook_1_handler, call_hook): New procedures.
(scm_primitive_load): Modify to accept a single list of arguments, like
for scm_primitive_load_path, so to accept an optional DEPTH argument.
Call hook via the 'call_hook' procedure.
(scm_primitive_load_path): Accept a third optional DEPTH argument.  Call
hook via the 'call_hook' procedure.  Pass depth to the
'scm_primitive_load' procedure call.
* libguile/load.h (scm_primitive_load)
(scm_primitive_load_path): Add 'depth' to argument name.
* module/ice-9/boot-9.scm (%load-announce): Accept the second DEPTH
argument, and use it to display the modules loaded hierarchically.  Use
format instead of display.
(%current-module-load-depth): New parameter.
(resolve-module): Use it.
(try-module-autoload): Call primitive-load-path with it.
(load-in-vicinity): Invoke %load-hook with it.

[PATCH v2 0/4] Add module depth information to %load-verbosely output

[Maxim Cournoyer]

This change was made to support investigating cyclic module dependencies
that sometimes happen in GNU Guix and are difficult to
comprehend/debug.  For more context, see:
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/65716>.

Changes in v2:
- Guard against negative pad count when computing 'visual-depth'

Maxim Cournoyer (4):
  (ice-9 boot-9): Fix typo.
  .dir-locals: Set c-basic-offset to 2 for c-mode.
  guix.scm: Update guile package native inputs.
  load: Display modules depth in output when using %load-verbosely.

[PATCH v2 4/4] load: Display modules depth in output when using %load-verbosely.

[Maxim Cournoyer]

* NEWS: Update news.
* THANKS: Add myself.
* doc/guile-api.alist (%load-announce, %load-hook): Add DEPTH argument.
* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi (Loading): Document new
DEPTH argument for the primitive-load, primitive-load-path and
%load-hook procedures.  Update %load-hook example.  Document
%load-verbosely.
* libguile/load.c (scm_loc_load_hook): Update doc.
(hook_args_data): New struct.
(call_hook_2_body, call_hook_1_handler, call_hook): New procedures.
(scm_primitive_load): Modify to accept a single list of arguments, like
for scm_primitive_load_path, so to accept an optional DEPTH argument.
Call hook via the 'call_hook' procedure.
(scm_primitive_load_path): Accept a third optional DEPTH argument.  Call
hook via the 'call_hook' procedure.  Pass depth to the
'scm_primitive_load' procedure call.
* libguile/load.h (scm_primitive_load)
(scm_primitive_load_path): Add 'depth' to argument name.
* module/ice-9/boot-9.scm (%load-announce): Accept the second DEPTH
argument, and use it to display the modules loaded hierarchically.  Use
format instead of display.
(%current-module-load-depth): New parameter.
(resolve-module): Use it.
(try-module-autoload): Call primitive-load-path with it.
(load-in-vicinity): Invoke %load-hook with it.

I recommend removing that with-output-to-port and instead replace #t in 
(format #t ...) by (current-warning-port) and adding the relevant 
argument to force-output.

Sure, it probably usually won't matter much in practice, but who knows, 
maybe someone will do a system-async-mark (*)  that happens to be run 
inside the with-output-to-port and which uses (current-output-port), in 
which case (with-output-to-port ...) would interfere.

(Note: if you do a system-async-mark that prints output, when possible I 
recommend that the interrupt procedure doesn't assume the port isn't 
temporarily changed.)

(*) Roughly similar to C signal handlers.

(I now see there is a v3, but the v3 does the same thing ...)

Best regards,
Maxime Devos.

[PATCH v3 0/4] Add module depth information to %load-verbosely output

[Maxim Cournoyer]

This change was made to support investigating cyclic module dependencies
that sometimes happen in GNU Guix and are difficult to
comprehend/debug.  For more context, see:
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/65716>.

Changes in v3:
- Replace PAD-COUNT with DEPTH in VISUAL-DEPTH guard.

Changes in v2:
- Guard against negative pad count when computing 'visual-depth'

Maxim Cournoyer (4):
  (ice-9 boot-9): Fix typo.
  .dir-locals: Set c-basic-offset to 2 for c-mode.
  guix.scm: Update guile package native inputs.
  load: Display modules depth in output when using %load-verbosely.

[PATCH v3 4/4] load: Display modules depth in output when using %load-verbosely.

* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi (Loading): Document new
DEPTH argument for the primitive-load, primitive-load-path and
%load-hook procedures.  Update %load-hook example.  Document
%load-verbosely.
* libguile/load.c (scm_loc_load_hook): Update doc.
(hook_args_data): New struct.
(call_hook_2_body, call_hook_1_handler, call_hook): New procedures.
(scm_primitive_load): Modify to accept a single list of arguments, like
for scm_primitive_load_path, so to accept an optional DEPTH argument.
Call hook via the 'call_hook' procedure.
(scm_primitive_load_path): Accept a third optional DEPTH argument.  Call
hook via the 'call_hook' procedure.  Pass depth to the
'scm_primitive_load' procedure call.
* libguile/load.h (scm_primitive_load)
(scm_primitive_load_path): Add 'depth' to argument name.
* module/ice-9/boot-9.scm (%load-announce): Accept the second DEPTH
argument, and use it to display the modules loaded hierarchically.  Use
format instead of display.
(%current-module-load-depth): New parameter.
(resolve-module): Use it.
(try-module-autoload): Call primitive-load-path with it.
(load-in-vicinity): Invoke %load-hook with it.

-For example an application can set this to show what's loaded,
+The default @code{%load-hook} is bound to a procedure that does
+something like:
+
+@example
+(define (%load-hook file depth)
+  (when %load-verbosely
+    (with-output-to-port (current-warning-port)
+      (lambda ()
+        (let* ((pad-count (- 3 (string-length (number->string depth))))
+               (pad (if (> pad-count 0)
+                        (make-string pad-count #\space)
+                        ""))
+               (visual-depth (if (> depth 0)
+                                 (make-string depth #\space)
+                                 "")))
+          (format #t ";;; loading ~a~a ~a~a~%" pad depth visual-depth file)
+          (force-output))))))
+@end example
+
+@vindex %load-verbosely, to enable default %load-hook output
+As you can see from the above procedure, an application can thus set the
+@code{%load-verbosely} variable to @code{#t} to enable the default load
+hook output, which produces something like:
 
 @example
-(set! %load-hook (lambda (filename)
-                   (format #t "Loading ~a ...\n" filename)))
-(load-from-path "foo.scm")
-@print{} Loading /usr/local/share/guile/site/foo.scm ...
+@print{};;; loading   0 guix/gnu/packages/abiword.scm
+@print{};;; loading   1  guix/build-system/glib-or-gtk.scm
+@print{};;; loading   2   guix/build/glib-or-gtk-build-system.scm
+@print{};;; loading   3    guix/build/gnu-build-system.scm
+@print{};;; loading   4     guix/build/gremlin.scm
+@print{};;; loading   5      guix/elf.scm
 @end example
+
+The number corresponds to the depth at which the module was loaded,
+which is a recursive process.  The indentation of the file name loaded
+corresponds to that depth value, to make it easy to visually discern
+which module caused others to be loaded.
