psch geez moar is confusing :P 07:56
also i'm clearly not awake enough yet to hack on it either
'cause now i've pushed (to my fork behind the PR, but still) a change that fails with (something like) "invalid identifier" or so 07:57
alright, i think i've got it now :l 08:09
i've pushed the adjusted error message on nqp-j already, so i'd say after the merge we bump moar & nqp rev and then i push the adjusted test 08:10

brrt is finally progressing on the JIT by deciding not to care about some design things 17:47
hmm, just had an idea… let me put it here before it slips my mind 17:49
optimistic store removal can be a completely local thing 17:50
(in which case, it doesn't help much, but okay)
in which case, the only 'natural storage position' for a value would be the last
e.g.: suppose we have a sequence of LOAD, COPY, (equalling SET), another COPY, and then a STORE 17:51
if the definition of the first COPY would be the last one, the STORE would be inserted anyway; but it'd be equally safe just to store it in the final place 17:52
(in which case… *drumroll* we can detect-and-eliminate that double store
not sure if this is anything but hypothetical, but still a nice simplication 17:53

dalek arVM/even-moar-jit: c3fd80c | brrt++ | src/jit/linear_scan.c:
Implement naive spilling and splitting

The actual logic of the 'spill' decision needs some work because it needs to decide whether or not to split a range in the first place. Also, splits should probably be rangeable (which means that the split logic may be more complicated).
And it needs the mysterious function 'create_new_live_range' and 'get_storage_location', which probably aren't really very complicated but I don't want to think about them right now :-)
18:29
brrt i wonder how hard it'd be to have a minor program that links moar, builds an expr tree (from a file?), compiles and runs it 18:47
possibly the parsing bit is hardest, but, sexpr
timotimo why not write it in nqp? 18:48
brrt because NQP is itself jitted
timotimo ah, you don't want that 18:49
brrt or, you mean, the parser
i want some more fine-grained control for it, anyway
timotimo well, moar will only really run stuff it has bytecode for ...
brrt nqp::jitdisable(), nqp::jitenable(), slt
timotimo sounds sensible
and easy to do, i guess?
brrt not sure
timotimo though i'm not sure if we rely on that flag not changing :D
brrt yeah, i wonder how that interoperates with speshing 18:50
which is kind of asynchronous from the viewpoint of the user
timotimo right
timotimo BBL 18:51
brrt (furthermore, it has clear action-at-a-distance for mutlithreaded applications, unless we bind the flag to threadcontext)
see you :-)
timotimo right, the flag is in the instance right now 18:52
brrt which… is really easy to change, but also, probably not worth it 18:53
