After `rm **/*.elc; make` we'd sometimes get loads and loads of unnecessary
"Reloading ...".
(byte-compile-refresh-preloaded): Don't reload files that are more
recent than `temacs` but older than the `.pdmp` file.
Instead of warning about unused vars during the analysis phase of
closure conversion, do it in the actual closure conversion by
annotating the code with "unused" warnings, so that the warnings
get emitted later by the bytecomp phase, like all other warnings,
at which point the line-number info is a bit less imprecise.
Take advantage of this change to wrap the expressions of unused
let-bound vars inside (ignore ...) so the byte-compiler can better
optimize them away.
Finally, promote `macroexp--warn-and-return` to "official" status
by removing its "--" marker.
(cconv-captured+mutated, cconv-lambda-candidates): Remove vars.
(cconv-var-classification): New var to replace them.
(cconv-warnings-only): Delete function.
(cconv--warn-unused-msg, cconv--var-classification): New functions.
(cconv--convert-funcbody): Add warnings for unused args.
(cconv-convert): Add warnings for unused vars in `let` and `condition-case`.
(cconv--analyze-use): Don't emit an "unused var" warning any more,
but instead remember the fact in `cconv-var-classification`.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el (byte-compile-force-lexical-warnings):
Remove variable.
(byte-compile-preprocess): Remove corresponding case.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/pcase.el (pcase--if): Don't throw away `test` effects.
(\`):
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl--do-arglist): Use `car-safe` instead
of `car`, so it can more easily be removed by the optimizer if the
result is not used.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/macroexp.el (macroexp--warn-wrap): New function.
(macroexp-warn-and-return): Rename from `macroexp--warn-and-return`.
For discussion, see the following thread:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2021-02/msg01666.html
* lisp/emacs-lisp/byte-run.el (byte-run--set-completion): Quote with
'function' for syntactical consistency with other declare form
properties. This allows writing (declare (completion foo)) instead
of (declare (completion 'foo)).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/easymenu.el (easy-menu-do-define):
* lisp/gnus/gnus-sum.el (gnus-summary-make-menu-bar): Prefer
function-put over put for function symbols.
* lisp/subr.el (ignore, undefined): Remove #'-quoting from declare
form; it is no longer needed.
Two unrelated bugs: A missing type check caused an error in rx
patterns for non-string match targets, and rx patterns did not work at
all in pcase-let or pcase-let*.
Second bug reported by Basil Contovounesios and Ag Ibragimov; fixes
proposed by Stefan Monnier. Discussion and explanation in thread at
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2021-02/msg01924.html
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx): Add (pred stringp) to avoid type errors,
and replace the `pred` clause for the actual match with something that
works with pcase-let(*) without being optimised away.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-pcase): Add test cases.
Rely on `current-load-list` instead of `load-file-name`.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el (byte-compile-close-variables):
Change the var we override accordingly.
Yes, finally: a function that tells you the name of the file where
the code is located. Finding this name is non-trivial in practice,
as evidenced by the "4 shift/reduce conflicts" warning when compiling
CEDET's python.el, because its `wisent-source` got it wrong in that
case, thinking the grammar came from `python.el` instead of
`python-wy.el`.
While at it, also made `macroexp-compiling-p` public, since it's
useful at various places.
(macroexp-compiling-p): Rename from `macroexp--compiling-p`.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el (byte-compile-close-variables):
Bind `load-file-name` to nil so we can distinguish a load that calls
the byte compiler from a byte compilation which causes a load.
* lisp/cedet/semantic/wisent/python.el (wisent-python--expected-conflicts):
Remove; it was just a workaround.
* lisp/subr.el (do-after-load-evaluation): Avoid `byte-compile--` vars.
* lisp/cedet/semantic/fw.el (semantic-alias-obsolete):
Use `macroexp-compiling-p` and `macroexp-file-name`.
* lisp/cedet/semantic/wisent/comp.el (wisent-source): Use `macroexp-file-name`
(wisent-total-conflicts): Tighten regexp.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-lib.el (cl--compiling-file): Delete function
and variable. Use `macroexp-compiling-p` instead.
* lisp/progmodes/flymake.el (flymake-log):
* lisp/emacs-lisp/package.el (package-get-version):
* lisp/emacs-lisp/ert-x.el (ert-resource-directory):
Use `macroexp-file-name`.
* shortdoc.el (shortdoc-heading): Define new face for headings.
(shortdoc-display-group): Apply new heading face.
(shortdoc--display-function): Use existing face for section text.
* etc/NEWS: Document new face (bug#46748).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el (byte-compile-make-closure):
Use the supplied doc string if it's a literal; fall back to the old
slow way of building a closure otherwise.
Simplify closure creation by calling a single function at run time
instead of putting it together from small pieces. This is faster
(by about a factor 2), takes less space on disk and in memory, and
makes internal functions somewhat readable in disassembly listings again.
This is done by creating a prototype function at compile-time whose
closure variables are placeholder values V0, V1... which can be seen
in the disassembly. The prototype is then cloned at run time using
the new make-closure function that replaces the placeholders with
the actual closure variables.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el (byte-compile-make-closure):
Generate call to make-closure from a prototype function.
* src/alloc.c (Fmake_closure): New function.
(syms_of_alloc): Defsubr it.
* src/data.c (syms_of_data): Defsym byte-code-function-p.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/byte-run.el (byte-run--set-modes): Change from
being a predicate to storing the modes. This allows using the
modes for positive command discovery, too.
* src/data.c (Fcommand_modes): Look at the `command-modes' symbol
property, too.
* doc/lispref/functions.texi (Calling Functions): Document it.
* lisp/subr.el (always): New function.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/byte-opt.el (side-effect-free-fns): Mark it as
side effect free.
(edebug-all-defs, edebug-all-forms): Don't autoload since the problem
it was working around has been fixed a while back.
(edebug--eval-defun): Rename from `edebug-eval-defun` and simplify by
making it an `:around` advice.
(edebug-install-read-eval-functions)
(edebug-uninstall-read-eval-functions): Adjust accordingly.
(edebug-eval-defun): Redefine as an obsolete wrapper.
* lisp/progmodes/elisp-mode.el (elisp--eval-defun):
Use `load-read-function` so it obeys `edebug-all-(defs|forms)`.
(elisp--eval-defun): Fix recent regression introduced with
`elisp--eval-defun-result`.
The argument of the rx `regexp` form is assumed to evaluate to a valid
regexp, but certain kinds of deprecated but still accepted usage were
not handled correctly, such as unescaped literal (special) characters:
(rx "a" (regexp "*")) => "a*" which is wrong.
Handle these cases; there is no extra trouble.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx--translate-regexp): Force bracketing
of single special characters.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-regexp): Add test case.
