timo that kind of thing should be fixed by my moarvm commit from ... uhhkonsole 03:24

that was me trying unsuccessfully to operate my desktop without a screen. please disregard 03:36
Geth MoarVM/spesh_unbox_i_cpointer: 2822ef1db1 | (Timo Paulssen)++ | src/6model/reprs/CPointer.c
Optimize passing CPointer to nativecall ever so slightly

We emit an unbox_i operation in a compiled nativecall body in order to get the pointer value to pass to the native function. Without a spesh method on the CPointer repr, this would interpret as, and jit into, a call to CPointer's get_int.
Instead of a call, we just emit a spesh op to do the memory offset and read for us, which the JIT also likes very much.		 03:58

Optimize passing CPointer to nativecall ever so slightly
lizmat timo: is that safe for the 2025.01 release ? 09:26
patrickb Can we get the Windows long path fix in? 09:49
lizmat it couldn't get any worse on Windows, or could it ? 09:50
patrickb did you look at the diff?
It's a single char change with no possibility for regressions. 09:51
lizmat hadn't looked yet, yeah, that looks ok
patrickb In my naive world view at least. :-P 09:52
Geth MoarVM/main: 7f9662c092 | (Patrick Böker)++ (committed using GitHub Web editor) | src/io/io.c
Fix corner case of Windows long path handling
patrickb Cool. thanks! 09:54
lizmat bumping....
patrickb That change hopefully finally fixes module installation on Windows. 09:55
jdv [Coke]: there is no need, per se, for the delete/ignore in the moarvm changelog 16:00
timo it's probably safe 16:41
still a bit bold to merge it during release time 16:43
[Coke] jdv: yup, just in case. Figured the rakudo log was more important/required more fiddling in general. 18:20
I am not really happy about the DAY OF set of commits to main on MoarVM
Who is vouching for that?
I will plan on rolling that back before the release and someone can re-apply it after unless we get concensus 18:21
timo yeah feel free to do that if it's not too much hassle 18:24
jdv the what now? 18:37
ah, i see now 18:38

[Coke] This was a PR from 2021 that just happened to get a commit 15 hours ago. 18:58
.seen niner 18:59
tellable6 [Coke], I haven't seen niner around, did you mean nine?
[Coke] .seen nine
tellable6 [Coke], I saw nine 2024-11-27T13:36:16Z in #raku-dev: <nine> I would just get used to that :D
[Coke] we also have the stray commit 7f9662c09291fc3b1b46d6c609694af755944be5 19:00
linkable6 (2025-01-25) github.com/MoarVM/MoarVM/commit/7f9662c092 Fix corner case of Windows long path handling
[Coke] This looks like a safer commit, it's changing a > to a >= in a win specific set of code for paths that are already dealing with max-path issues. 19:01
If you had asked me, I would have said "don't commit anything to main". :| Anyone else have thoughts on this one? 19:02
patrickb Sorry to have caused you a hassle. Didn't intend to... 19:09
[Coke] Yours seems much safer than the other one; but any changes this close to release are a risk 19:10
Did you get a CI run with it?
patrickb Incidentally that change fixes the install issues you reported a few days back. But yes, merges right before a release - meh. 19:12
CI was green. 19:13
[Coke] ok. We'll roll the dice on that one. :) 19:25

Update changelog and version		 23:06
jdv anyone in here have moarvm.org repo admin? 23:13
need [Coke] added
[Coke] short term, we have github.com/MoarVM/moarvm.org/pull/16 23:15
timo yeah i'm getting all these "implausibly old timestamp" outputs 23:23
jdv ditto
timo can i see your log output or something? 23:24
oh i guess it was the github runner that created these? 23:27
[Coke] the other tar files? I think so 23:28
timo hm those are tar not zip and the artifacts that github actions is creating are all zip files
oh 23:29
i guess there's a .tar.gz in the .zip file

Merge pull request #1900 from MoarVM/2025.010

Update changelog and version
[Coke] merging that now in case it's required for the Ake stuff - it hadn't finished CI, but previous commits with actual code were ok 23:32
even with the hiccups, This is so much less stressful than I remember Christmas being. :) 23:36
timo seeing loads of projects that experienced the implausibly old timestamps at some point 23:45
[Coke] ok, good
