dalek arVM: 72a4c1a | timotimo++ | tools/moar-gdb.py:
make moar-gdb.py source-able, instead of only autoloadable

when not autoloading, "current_objfile" has no meaning.		 13:50
timotimo gdb is annoying to work with sometimes 14:07
set logging file /tmp/foobar.txt, break in MVM_frame_find_contextual_by_name, commands "print name"; c; end
run it for a few minutes 14:08
turns out, i forgot to "set logging on"
fair enough. start over, run it.
turns out "start" will clear out plugins, so the names were just pointer values
there doesn't seem to be a simple way to make the big line about breakpoints being hit from the output so i could just have the results for names 14:09
result: table flipped. the results would probably not have been terribly interesting anyway 14:11
$*W shows up a bunch of times, $*ACTIONS, too. then a bunch of others. 14:12
we wanted to have the ACTIONS linked to from ParseShared, didn't we? i wonder if that's still an interesting optimization right now
nine timotimo: if you find gdb annoying try working with jdb for some time :) 14:38
timotimo ugh
jdb is probably just an afterthought 14:39
brrt seconded
timotimo "we should probably also let people who don't have an IDE debug their shit"
jnthn printf for the win! :P 14:44
timotimo what attracted me to the idea of using gdb is you don't have to rebuild, and you have sort of a repl-like experimentation setup for your stuff 14:45
nine jnthn: printf debugging is much more fun when the time between adding the printf and looking at the result is significantly < 10 minutes ;) 14:47
timotimo ah, yeah 14:48
well, on moarvm when you change a .c file you only need to rebuild that single file and re-link, plus the relatively quick install step
brrt gdb is awesome 14:52
or at least the principle is 14:53
lldb is on the other hand clearly not meant for human use
timotimo beh. and that's all people have on osx?
dalek arVM/even-moar-jit: ac8b1e1 | brrt++ | src/jit/ (5 files):
Simplify the tile function signature

Tile objects already contain all the necessary values, so we can just pass it rather than push all its elements.		 14:58
arVM/even-moar-jit: ba7f715 | brrt++ | src/jit/ (2 files):
Use static register buffers

No need to allocate fixed-size buffers
brrt no, you can use gdb, but you have to jump through hoops
timotimo OK :( 14:59
brrt well, fortunately, i don't have to deal with that anymore (in the recent future at least)
near future of course 15:02
brrt i'm watching too much doctor who 15:02
timotimo :D
standing with your back to the future? 15:03
jnthn nine: Yes, very true...
jnthn does use gdb, the VS debugger, etc. also :)
Though in terms of tooling, the valgrind suite is perhaps what I reach for most these days 15:04
brrt :-) 15:05
i'm going to go and ehm, have dinner or something
jnthn om nom :) 15:06
jnthn is feeling super lazy and will order dinner to home today :)
Got some nice cooking planned for next week though :)
timotimo the usual time/money trade-off ... :) 15:07
brrt is that lazy more often than he would like
aye, and energy
jnthn Yeah, energy is my problem.
timotimo right, makes sense
jnthn Slept really well last night, better than for a while. And my body is doign the "oooh, rest is good, let's keep doing that" thing :)
*doing
timotimo i have friends who live right in my neighbourhood. they have cats, and we cook & eat dinner together almost every day now
jnthn parses the sentence the wrong way, and has a mental image of timotimo cooking together with a bunch of cats 15:08
timotimo well, the cats surely try to "help" with the ingredients
jnthn ;-)
timotimo "oh, your meat isn't chewed up yet? let me help with that" 15:09
"oops, it's gone"
jnthn ;) 15:10
brrt rats are much like that, really 17:55
timotimo i suppose many animals are 18:35
except, some can be taught to not be as forward about their urges
nine even some humans 19:36
geekosaur executive function is always tricky and cranky 19:44
