japhb wonders how much of that is *not* repeatedly boxing and unboxing the first arg to allo 00:00
timo spesh log ought to answer that, right?

MasterDuke hm, i can't seem to build rakudo with the jvm backend 18:04
it dies while compiling blib/Perl6/Optimizer.jar with `getcodeobj can only be used with a CodeRef` 18:05
ugexe i think its been failing since new disp
MasterDuke i thought the problem was i was using the graalvm jdk, but i switched (i believe) to openjdk 11 and get the same thing

Add a hook for custom dispatchers on callables

This lets callable objects have a say in which dispatcher is used when they are invoked. This new mechanism replaces the special handling for wrapped routines in the standard dispatchers.		 18:21

Fix NativeCall performance regression on new-disp

The trick of replacing the native routine's $!do attribute has never worked perfectly as closure cloning could lead to the generic code getting executed. For unknown reason that got a lot worse on new-disp.
Get around that by replacing the fragile $!do replacement with a ... (7 more lines)
MasterDuke got a little farther in the build, but now `Error while compiling op dispatch, no registered operation handler`, which seems like it might not be a quick/easy fix 18:24
nine MasterDuke: so we're missing an #?if moar somewhere? 18:31
MasterDuke i was hoping it would be that simple, but all the nqp::dispatch in rakudo are inside an `#?if moar` 18:32
at least, all the literal ones in the source
same with nqp it looks like 18:33
18:42 vrurg_ is now known as vrurg
MasterDuke or inside something like `if nqp::getcomp('Raku').backend.name eq 'moar'` 18:54

bartolin MasterDuke: I've noticed the broken JVM build too, but wasn't able to invest a lot of time. ooc, what did you do to avoid the original error? 18:58
MasterDuke bartolin: gist.github.com/MasterDuke17/4f9cc...b8d7def040 18:59
bartolin Ah, I see, thanks! 19:00
19:00 patrickb joined
MasterDuke np 19:01
the two args when it gets a dispatch are 'boot-syscall' and 'bind-will-resume-on-failure' 19:03
github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/mast...9082-L9099 19:04
bartolin that was introduced with commit github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/de24aac1b8. Maybe the old code will still work for the JVM? 19:07
MasterDuke trying now 19:08
Could not instantiate role '<anon|1>': 19:10
CodeRef representation does not support attributes
bartolin :( 19:11
MasterDuke was jvm building right before the new-disp merge? 19:12
19:12 discord-raku-bot left
MasterDuke it's trying to compose an 'is default' mixin 19:13

bartolin my last build was from 2021-09-19 (and that was still fine) 19:14
[Coke] ... I don't think anyone tested JVM on new-disp branch, did we? uhoh 19:27
Is broken JVM a release blocker?
(Ideally it should be, but I think practically it's not) 19:28
19:28 childlikempress joined, moon-child left
bartolin I'd also think it is not. btw, my impression was that most changes were made in a way that they only affected MoarVM. so maybe it's possible to resurrect the jvm backend without too much trouble. 19:30
19:37 Xliff_ left
bartolin MasterDuke: it looks like the initial error "getcodeobj can only be used with a CodeRef" also goes away if one changes back the first adjustment from github.com/Raku/nqp/commit/1ee4398beb -- instead of touching src/vm/jvm/Perl6/Ops.nqp. But there is still the problem with "Could not instantiate role '<anon|1>'" 19:44
MasterDuke hm 19:45
Geth nqp: MasterDuke17++ created pull request #740:
Make JVM tests pass after new-disp merge		 19:51
MasterDuke oh, we're not going to see anything different in CI because the NQP tests are only run if the rakudo build succeeds 20:00
well, locally `make m-test j-test` now passes for nqp 20:01
bartolin MasterDuke++ 20:04
MasterDuke do you think you'll be able to work on getting rakudo building? 20:05

japhb lizmat: logs.liz.nl/raku-dev/2021-10-04.html#11:23 seems oddly formatted and out of order compared to what I see in irssi in this channel. In particular, |Tux|'s comments from *after* your comment about < 1.7 have been moved to before the test results and split into words across the table. 20:11
bartolin MasterDuke: I'll probably not have much time before the weekend. but I'll try to figure out what goes wrong. (It's quite possible that I'm not able to fix the build, though ...) 20:14
MasterDuke no worries, this was just kind of a yak shaving exercise, so if you can work on it i suspect you'll be quicker to the fix than i 20:19

Make JVM tests pass after new-disp merge

The JVM doesn't implement nqp::dispatch, so move any tests with that to the MoarVM tests directory.
The JVM also hasn't implemented hllize via dispatchers, so just skip that test on the JVM.

Simplify the code used to test destructors

Sometimes under heavy load we'd hit the timeout instead of a GC triggering the destructor. So instead, just loop until we hit it, but add in a call to explicitly request a GC (which wasn't available when this test was written).		 21:46
