patrickb I'd like to merge github.com/rakudo/rakudo/pull/3810 soon-ish (far away from the next release). That PR is deprecating a commandline option. I've added a deprecation notice, but I think we never deprecated a commandline option before. Should I merge or wait for more feedback? (From whom?) 11:44
11:50 raku-bridge left
JJMerelo patrickb wait, how much? 11:51
patrickb JJMerelo: I don't understand. Do you mean how long I would wait?
JJMerelo patrickb I mean, you can wait for ever...
11:52 raku-bridge joined, raku-bridge left, raku-bridge joined
JJMerelo patrickb the middle way is probably have a small deprecation cycle of one month or until the next release and wait that much. 11:52
Altai-man_ patrickb, I'd say a deprecation cycle for a year is good enough, considering it gives a big WARNING on building with this option on. 11:53
patrickb That's why I asked. I hope to either provoke a "merge it now" or "I'll have quick look" response. 11:54
timotimo patrickb: we have a deprecation cycle going on for --profile and friends at the moment 11:56
i would assume it's fine to merge this. i wonder if Inline::Perl6 needs a tiny patch?
patrickb timotimo: How did you do that? Just add a 'note "Deprecated. Don't use."' ?
timotimo it's a little more complicated than that 11:57
patrickb Well, `--nqp-lib` doesn't have any functionality. The deprecation is solely about not complaining when the option is given. 11:58
timotimo right
11:58 JJMerelo left
patrickb I was mostly concerned whether the deprecation output could have unwanted sideeffects. 11:58
timotimo i need to rebuild my nqp and rakudo, currently heap snapshots die because they don't find nqp-home method on the compiler
Altai-man_ timotimo, github.com/rakudo/rakudo/issues/3824 <- 11:59
Also, we must add rakudo-level tests for, at least, zero exit code for profile / heap snapshots features. 12:00
timotimo this got into the release?
Altai-man_ Yes.
patrickb github.com/Raku/nqp/pull/647 <- that's the fix.
Altai-man_ So we're waiting for the fix to be approved-merged, then tests to be added, then point.
timotimo i'll go write a test or two
patrickb The merge is currently only waiting for CI.
Altai-man_ timotimo, please do, I will be really happy. We have various rakudo-only tests and it is a bit ouch we did not have _anything_ for the profiler, so this sneaked in. 12:01
timotimo have we considered using bindhllsym here?
patrickb timotimo: Are you asking about `nqp-home` and `rakudo-home`? 12:04
timotimo yeah
patrickb If so, they originally used bindhllsym. But the approach caused unwanted duplication and coupling of rakudo and nqp.
So using a method on the Compiler object was the best alternative idea we could come up with. 12:05

Register a plain HLL::Compiler object under the 'HLL' name

This allows the code in NQP to use functionality in the HLL Compiler. Before that wasn't possible as it wasn't known which name the subclassed Compiler object would have.

let's put some very experimental fancy stuff in at the last second!
Altai-man_ timotimo, maybe profiler tests first? :P
timotimo ah, that landed today 20:10
Altai-man_ not sure if kidding or serious 20:11
timotimo the fix i mean
Altai-man_ Ah, yup. 20:12
timotimo we have "is_run" or something in our tests?
Altai-man_ Well, that's why I'm planning to quickly do a point and finally rest for a bit...
Yes.
timotimo use lib $?FILE.IO.parent(2).add("packages/Test-Helpers");
use Test::Util;

20:14 sena_kun joined
sena_kun timotimo, can you confirm the fix is also good with heap snapshots? 20:15
20:17 Altai-man_ left
timotimo well, heap snapshots don't have to find a file on disk to concat with the data 20:18
sena_kun timotimo, didn't you mention it to be broken? 20:19
timotimo calling out to rakudo from a test can be super annoying
sena_kun I had to left though, so maybe misunderstood.
timotimo like, when you have rakudo-gdb-m or so, it'll use that version there too and give you quite some trouble
sena_kun timotimo, colabti.org/irclogger/irclogger_lo...-07-27#l89 <- this seems like exactly the problem, no? 20:20
timotimo right, i didn't look closely enough
sena_kun I assume the profiler works with the fix, but not sure how to test if heap profiler is and don't want to do another point in case it isn't. 20:21
timotimo ooh we have is-run in t/ and is_run in t/spec/ 20:22
brilliant
sena_kun timotimo, well, t/spec is roast and we don't want to test profiler there for sure, so rakudo/t is good. 20:23
timotimo yeah
i was just worried because i saw no results for is_run outside of t/spec
and thought i'd have to come up with something myself, which could very well be brittle and wrong and whatever 20:24

sena_kun Yeah.
timotimo grmbl 21:34
how do i get "make blah.t" to output more than just the ok or not ok lines 21:35
sena_kun Yes, that's the question.
The problem it, the test passes just fine if I run it directly, without make.
Trying again.

timotimo yeah, the file does not actually exist 21:41
sena_kun But we test for its existence?
>ok $htmlpath.IO.f, "profiler html output file exists on disk";
The $htmlpath for me is "/tmp/perl6_roast_01_profilers_t_line1_0_41108281079771091595886049/profile.html"
timotimo # Writing profiler output to /tmp/perl6_roast_01_profilers_t_line1_0_97792504619008721595886087/profile.html
# Could not locate profiler/template.html; should have been at /home/timo/perl6/share/nqp/lib/profiler/template.html; outputting sql data instead
# Writing profiler output to /tmp/perl6_roast_01_profilers_t_line1_0_97792504619008721595886087/profile.sql
there's an install/ missing in the middle 21:42
/home/timo/perl6/install/share/nqp/lib/profiler/template.html exists
sena_kun So who is wrong?
timotimo the test is successfully detecting that stuff isn't working 21:43
sena_kun But if I do `install/bin/raku --profile -e 'say "foo"'` it says `Writing profiler output to profile-1595886239.0356207.html` and the file is here and working. 21:44
Let me do a bump... 21:45

nqp::source-digest=6c4c5320411a7c2bfcf5d1224e20d255671e3bc7
sena_kun Oh, hm, it's not so easy.
timotimo nqp::prefix=/home/timo/perl6/install
nqp::nqp-home=/home/timo/perl6/install/share/nqp
nqp::libdir=/home/timo/perl6/install/share/nqp/lib
these look fine
Raku::prefix=/home/timo/perl6/install 21:46
Raku::static-nqp-home=
Raku::static-rakudo-home=/home/timo/perl6/install/share/perl6
i wonder why the static-nqp-home there is empty, but probably just not using it? and maybe that's fine? or maybe that's wrong? 21:47
sena_kun Right, it creates .sql instead of .html. 21:49
Ok. 21:50
timotimo execname is /home/timo/perl6/rakudo/rakudo-m
sena_kun This sounds like a legitimate bug...
timotimo i believe the code we have cuts off two slashes from the end, then just plops /share/perl6 at the end
that's in Compiler.nqp in method rakudo-home inside rakudo 21:51
ok i can reproduce it without "make" now 21:52
./rakudo-m -I lib t/09-moar/01-profilers.t inside my rakudo build folder 21:53
sena_kun timotimo, are you sure you are using rakudo with bumped nqp?
timotimo This is nqp version 2020.07-3-gf0cfdf2d8 built on MoarVM version 2020.07-3-gb56e62f18 21:54
sena_kun Yeah. 21:55
timotimo, thanks for writing a test, this is a life saver, huh.
Ok, now sleep. 21:56
timotimo ok, so the code in rakudo will probably go via HLL::Compiler to moar's HLL/Backend, which uses getcomp("default")'s .nqp-home to find the right path
good night sena_kun
