alester joined
|
|||
| whiteknight | alester: you know what bugs me about ack? | 00:49 | |
| alester: the debian package installs it as ack-grep, and I always have to set up the symlink | 00:51 | ||
| benabik | ack...-grep? | 00:55 | |
| sorear | whiteknight: alester has no control over that | 00:57 | |
| whiteknight | I know. I don't have any complaints about things alester has control over | ||
| sorear | benabik: names in Debian are assigned on a first come first serve basis | ||
| benabik: with very few exceptions (git, chromium), old programs are never renamed to make room for new ones | 00:58 | ||
| and even git-scm and chromium-browser didn't get the short names until after a long and acrimonious debate | |||
| git = GNU Interactive Tools, a distant relative of Norton Commander | |||
| Coke | whiteknight: yessssssssssssssss? | 01:07 | |
| whiteknight | Coke: I'm still working on it. I need to setup a text editor and a few tools first | 01:08 | |
| I just reinstalled ubuntu, so I lost everything I need to finish this like flex, bison, etc | |||

| alester | whiteknight: I know, it sucks. | 01:36 | |
| whiteknight | alester: you need to go put your foot down. You're practically a celebrity around here | 01:37 | |
| alester | Where's "here"? In Debian packaging land? | ||
| I'm just glad they didn't call it "perl-grep" | |||
| or something with "perl" in the name | |||
| whiteknight | alester: "here" is #parrot. You're a celebrity here | 01:38 | |
| Coke | whiteknight: is it likely that I will duplicate your work if I go hack on coke/rm_pasm? | 01:48 | |
| whiteknight | Coke: I'm editing compilers/imcc/* and src/pmc/imccompiler.pmc | ||
| and a little bit on src/interp/api.c | |||
| Coke | ah, the hard bits. ok. | ||
| whiteknight | see? I'm good for something | 01:49 | |
| Coke wanders off to get the laptop | |||
| dalek | rrot/coke/rm_pasm: 62008a2 | Whiteknight++ | / (11 files): Rip out the PASM compreg from IMCC. Rip out a few internal flags to differentiate between PIR and PASM at the interface. Rip PASM mode out of IMCCompiler. A few other small hack jobs |
01:52 | |
| whiteknight | blah, I hate diffs like this, because there's no way to tell github that certain files shouldn't be diff'd | 01:53 | |
| and then we see several hundred lines of bison output garbage | 01:54 | ||
| benabik | You can use .gitattributes to set it -diff | 02:09 | |
| No idea if github pays attention to it. | |||

JimmyZ joined
|
|||
| JimmyZ | hello cotto | 02:29 | |
| cotto | nbrown, trying to decide between fixing the existing M0 arg tests and just going ahead with figuring out the memory layout | ||
| nbrown | oh, I fixed them in my branch. I thought I told you last night | 02:30 | |
| check out the last couple commits to github.com/nbrown/parrot/tree/m0-c-args-fix | |||
| JimmyZ | cotto: I'd like to change PC to +4, because the perl one is using a double dimensional array, while the C one is not. | 02:31 | |
| cotto: I prefer the C one | 02:32 | ||
| nbrown | JimmyZ: why does the internal representation of the ops data matter? isn't that just a implementation detail? | ||
| JimmyZ | nbrown: PC+1 in current C one is wrong, but the perl interp is right | 02:34 | |
| nbrown | and I'm asking why is PC+1 wrong? To me +1 makes a lot of sense from a language design point of view: the second op is PC+1 past the first op | 02:35 | |
| cotto | JimmyZ, why do you say that? It makes sense to disallow the possibility of executing a misaligned op. | ||
| nbrown | the fact that it's location 4 bytes down the address space seems irrelevant | ||
| JimmyZ | the perl interp PC is always point to a instruction | 02:36 | |
| but the C interp is not | |||
| that's why you must always *4 | |||
| nbrown | you have to *4 because there's essentially a physical and logical PC | 02:37 | |
| cotto | yes | ||
| nbrown | I don't see why the logical should be the same as the physical | 02:38 | |
| JimmyZ | nbrown: the perl interp reads every instruction and store in a double dimensional array, the C interp reads instruction and stores it in a bytecode flow | ||
| nbrown | yes | ||
| cotto | nbrown, I have yet to see that args test pass, even with your changes | 02:39 | |
| I don't like this test. | |||
| nbrown | cotto: hmmmm, I wonder why it passes for me | ||
| cotto: I'm not strongly attached to it, but it's hard to debug when it doesn't fail | 02:40 | ||
| *for me | |||
| cotto | nbrown, yeah | ||
| dalek | rrot/coke/rm_pasm: eb1015f | coke++ | docs/ (13 files): remove some references to PASM in the docs |
||
| JimmyZ | the PC of C interp is point to a instruction, which is out of spec too. | ||
| *is not | 02:41 | ||
| nbrown | JimmyZ: ok, so we should change the C implementation or make the concept of the logical PC clearer | 02:42 | |
| cotto | wfm | ||
| once I get this stupid test working | |||
| JimmyZ | cotto: I think bytecode flow is better than double dimensional array, so I prefer to change spec to make PC + 4 | 02:43 | |
| nbrown | JimmyZ: I still prefer the logical PC concept because it allows flexibility in the implementation but makes manipulating the PC manually predictable | ||
| JimmyZ likes faster load and execution :) | 02:44 | ||
| Coke | whiteknight seems to have broken the build in coke/pasm | ||
| msg whiteknight: on coke/rm_pasm: ./pbc_to_exe parrot-nqp.pbc -> init_pmc() not implemented in class 'IMCCompiler' | 02:45 | ||
| aloha | OK. I'll deliver the message. | ||
| nbrown | JimmyZ: is you concern about execution speed the fact that there's a bunch of extra multiplies? | ||
| JimmyZ | nbrown: the machine code is not +1 too, | 02:46 | |
| cotto | afk for a bit | ||
| JimmyZ | machine code usually should be a data flow, not a array | 02:47 | |
| any reason why PC must to be +1? | 02:48 | ||
| nbrown | JimmyZ: fair enough. I still prefer +1, but there's no issue with either way, it just needs to be documented clearly | ||
| JimmyZ: not really. I was trying to get the C and perl implementations to pass the same test suite, so one had to win and fixing the C implementation seemed simpler | 02:49 | ||
| JimmyZ | well, I prefer data flow because it always faster than a double dimensional array | ||
| cotto | I like +1 because there's less ambiguity and potential for breakage. That's about all. | ||
| nbrown | JimmyZ: we're still doing the data flow, we're just treating PC logically (+1) and physically (+4) | 02:50 | |
| JimmyZ | OK | ||
| nbrown | JimmyZ: the logical exists for the programmer and higher level languages like m1, while the physical is something only m0 needs to know about | 02:51 | |
| JimmyZ | only if the C interp is not like the perl interp :) | ||
| I'm fine | |||
| nbrown | JimmyZ: and it isn't | ||
| JimmyZ hopes it won't be changed in the future too | 02:52 | ||
| nbrown | JimmyZ: not if I have any say | ||
| the current C ops loop is pretty simple and I like it that way :) | 02:53 | ||
| JimmyZ | yes | ||
| nbrown | it makes debugging the interpreter not too bad | 02:54 | |
| JimmyZ | that's why prefer it | ||
| *why I | |||
| dalek | rrot/coke/rm_pasm: a5f1118 | coke++ | docs/book/draft/ch10_opcode_reference.pod: Remove (stale anyway) PASM xref info |
02:55 | |
| Coke | urrr. what is the difference between: | 03:05 | |
| git diff docs/book/pir/ch02_getting_started.pod docs/book/draft/ch02_getting_started.pod | |||
| ... I struck PASM from one of them and when I was doing the other i noticed it was verrrry similar. | 03:06 | ||
| msg alvis check out: git diff docs/book/pir/ch02_getting_started.pod docs/book/draft/ch02_getting_started.pod | |||
| aloha | OK. I'll deliver the message. | ||
| dalek | rrot/coke/rm_pasm: 5ff60df | coke++ | docs/ (12 files): remove/update more PASM references |
03:10 | |
| cotto | the thing finally passes | 04:22 | |
| well, the C implementation does | |||
| stupid multiple implementations, exposing bugs in each other | |||
| dalek | rrot/m0-c-args-fix: 827748e | nbrown++ | t/m0/integration/m0_args.m0: Fail m0_args if argv[1] doesn't have the right number of bytes |
04:58 | |
| rrot/m0-c-args-fix: e6473c6 | nbrown++ | t/m0/integration/m0_args.m0: Treat argv[1] as an m0 string instead of a C string |
|||
| cotto | and now all tests pass on both implementations | ||
| rrot/m0-c-args-fix: 9d8bde2 | cotto++ | src/m0/perl5/m0_interp.pl: fix perl5-m0's encoding of cli arguments |
04:59 | ||
| rrot/m0-c-args-fix: 07708ab | cotto++ | src/m0/c/m0_ops.c: add a debugging macro for c-m0 |
|||
| rrot/m0-c-args-fix: 273be9f | cotto++ | t/m0/integration/m0_args.m0: fix the args test, add some disabled debugging code |
|||
| cotto | if only nbrown or I could figure out why they were passing before on his machine | ||
| nbrown, please test that on your machine | 05:00 | ||

| dalek | rrot/m0: 2638f9f | cotto++ | / (3 files): update cm0 to encode cli arguments as M0 strings The code emits a warning and needs a bit of cleanup, but the new args_basic test successfully prints out its first arg. Issues with the m0_args.t are probably due a bug in that test. |
07:13 | |

| tadzik | wow, commits | 07:15 | |
| commits everywhere! | |||
| cotto | I'm big on recycling. I even recycle commits. | 07:18 | |
| It's environmentally friendly *and* lazy. | |||
| tadzik | renewable karma | 07:20 | |

| JimmyZ | Coke: I'd like to remove some examples, which is pasm | ||
| Coke | my only concern with that is possiby translating the examples from pasm to something else - if they're truly showing off PASM, kill them. If they're showing how to, say, use a library that doesn't have another sample in another language, think about rewriting it. | 12:25 | |
| JimmyZ | Coke: some examples are 6 years old, and I don't think anyone will be interested with it | 12:26 | |

| whiteknight | hello benabik | 15:38 | |
| benabik | 'lo whiteknight | ||
| whiteknight: If you thought upgrading Ubuntu was fun, try updating a homebrew automated installer. I love how they changed configuration and package names ever so slightly. | 15:39 | ||
| whiteknight | I've been bitten several times by weird little renaming decisions, especially by ubuntu | 15:40 | |
| or moving install paths for common libraries, or changing the names of .h files, etc | |||
| dalek | nxed: 05af985 | NotFound++ | winxedst2.winxed: add a class for function parameter list |
15:41 | |
| benabik | The fun one for me was that they changed the installer `netcfg/disable_dhcp` to `netcfg/disable_autoconfig`. So the installer happily went and tried to use DHCP instead of all the static information my config script gave it | 15:50 | |
| Of course, this doesn't cause errors at the networking step, but much later. And doesn't occur on my VM setup which does use DHCP. Blah. | 15:54 | ||
| dukeleto | ~~ | 15:55 | |
| whiteknight | hello dukeleto | 15:57 | |
| dukeleto | whiteknight: hola! | ||
| whiteknight | dukeleto: FYI, I've been seeing some PLA failures, which I think are related to the Ubuntu 12.04 update. I'm going to track those down tonight or this weekend. | ||
| dukeleto: and jashwanth was seeing some segfaults in PLA, but I suspect it's from an improperly installed parrot and a libparrot mismatch | |||
| dukeleto | whiteknight: sounds fun | 15:58 | |
| whiteknight: both parties signed docs yesterday and I am waiting for it to record + get keys today | |||
| whiteknight: i avoid ubuntu updates like the plague. I am still on 10.04 and 10.10 | 15:59 | ||
| benabik | dukeleto: Yay! \\o// | ||
| dukeleto | benabik: thanks! It has been a crazy few weeks. | 16:00 | |
| benabik was so excited he grew an extra arm, apparently. | |||
| dukeleto | \\\\\\\\\\o////// # cthulhu wave | ||
| whiteknight: i will pull down a fresh PLA+parrot and see if I can get some smoke for you | 16:01 | ||
| whiteknight | dukeleto: congrats! I sincerely hope it works out for you this time | 16:02 | |
| benabik | Hm. New record load: 1071 | 16:03 | |
| whiteknight | unfortunately, it's not over till those keys are in your hand | ||
| benabik: saw an article that you might find interesting about static analysis: lwn.net/SubscriberLink/493599/7621ec4c8ab14f15/ | |||
| actually, it's about how different internal representations (GCC's GIMPLE vs LLVM's AST) are suited for it | |||
| benabik | I wonder what the overall structure of GIMPLE is. | 16:06 | |
| whiteknight | honestly, I have no idea | ||
| benabik | I would personally dispute the idea that the AST is the best form for static analysis. It's good for some things, but not others. | ||
| whiteknight | dukeleto: regarding your aversion to Ubuntu upgrades, I think I need to get into that mindset myself | 16:07 | |
| dukeleto: The upgrades are always too painful. When the upgrade works I end up with weird software changes, and when the upgrade doesn't work I end up with emergency restore CDs and a few missing hours | |||
| dukeleto | whiteknight: yep. That happened to me one too many times. | 16:10 | |
| PerlJam | fwiw, my laptop upgrade to ubuntu 12.04 went super smooth. | ||
| whiteknight | PerlJam: I know it's smooth for most people, but it always is a disaster for me | 16:11 | |
| and I haven't been able to figure out why there's a discrepancy | |||
| PerlJam | well, this is the first time it's been smooth for me. | ||
| cotto | ~~ | 16:28 | |
| Coke | ubuntu is on 12 already? eesh | 16:46 | |
| my upgrade to 10.x was horrible (broke sleep), and I've pretty much never recovered. | 16:47 | ||
| Coke will try it, mebbe it'll make me happy | |||
| dukeleto | Coke: i doubt it | ||
| Coke: all the GUI stuff got changed to look like Windows or some junk | 16:48 | ||
| Coke | dukeleto: given that it was changed before that to look like a cell phone, I think I'll be ok. | ||
| I basially just want it for chrome, gcc, and ssh. | |||

| aloha | Coke: OK. I'll deliver the message. | ||
| Coke | whiteknight: Did you see the message that you broke nqp in branch? | 17:17 | |
| whiteknight | Coke: no I didn't see that message. I'll fix it tonight | 17:18 | |
| Coke | Danke. | 17:19 | |
| whiteknight | Oh, I suspect I didn't update pbc_to_exe after my api change | 17:24 | |
| Coke | did we /need/ an API change? | 17:34 | |
| seems like if we can avoid an api change, we'll be better off. (aside from something like "compile_block_of_PASM", of course. | |||
| cotto | ~~ | 17:35 | |
| whiteknight | Coke: I think we did, yes. | ||
| Coke: we certainly wanted to get rid of that compreg, if we're not supporting it anymore | |||
| Coke | I'd have to see what the change was. | 17:36 | |
| instead of removing init_int, why not just restrict the valid values? | 17:37 | ||
| (I mean, obviously we'd only have PIR at that point, but it would avoid a rewrite, and leave the door open for something other than PIR.) | 17:39 | ||
| whiteknight | we can keep init_int | 17:46 | |
| dukeleto | i am a fan of init_int | 17:48 | |
| whiteknight | it's unneeded in this case, but we can keep it for some backwards compatibility. I don't think that's the change that broke NQP anyway | 17:54 | |
| dukeleto | whiteknight: lots of HLLs, libraries, etc use init_int (including the elderly PL/Parrot) | 17:55 | |
| Coke | whiteknight: that's the change it complained about, yes. | 17:59 | |
| dukeleto | whiteknight: i am testing pla on the latest parrot+rosella master now | 18:02 | |
| whiteknight | dukeleto: I'm not removing init_int, I'm just removing it from IMCCompiler PMC | 18:06 | |

| it's stuff we want done, but it might be too aggressive a step for this branch | 18:51 | ||

| whiteknight | blah: you know those days where you have straight-forward problems to work on, and you get them done and you feel like you've accomplished something? Today is not one of those days for me. | 19:46 | |
| dukeleto | whiteknight: i feel ya | 19:49 | |
| whiteknight: i am running the pla test suite on the latest parrot+rosella right now | |||
| whiteknight: PASS on ubuntu 10.10 64bit | 19:51 | ||
| whiteknight | nice. Let me know what you find. jashwanth was seeing a few errors that look like they might be problems in Parrot. I saw a few issues on 12.04 that look related to BLAS binding or symbol export, which I'm sure is something that got monkeyed with in the upgrade | 19:52 | |
| I know it worked when I was on 11.10, so getting it working in 12.04 too shouldn't be too hard. But jashwanth isn't on 12.04 anyway so it's low priority | |||
| Making it work on whatever system jashwanth is using is my priority | 19:53 | ||
| That means I'm probably going to have to set up a 32-bit ubuntu 11.10 VM tonight for testing | 19:55 | ||
| ...which means I probably need to reinstall virtualbox | 19:56 | ||
| dukeleto | whiteknight: oy vey | 20:06 | |
| I found a reproducible bug in "tail" today which causes it to core dump. Achievement unlocked. | 20:47 | ||
| moritz | oh wow | ||
| tadzik | nice | 20:49 | |
| cotto | dukeleto: wow | 20:51 | |
| what's the bug? | |||
| and I'm pretty sure that covers at least two achievements | |||
| dukeleto | cotto: while in screen, i tail -f a file and then press "CTRL-Shift-Insert" | 21:01 | |
| cotto: i have core files to prove it :) | |||
| Incidentally, these core files were owned by the wrong user and then caused deployments to fail. SO MUCH WIN. | 21:02 | ||
| cotto | my version is fine, sadly | 21:03 | |
| 8.5 | |||
| PerlJam | dukeleto: is that a tail problem or a screen problem? Sounds like the latter. | ||

| do I have to clone and patch it also, or is the src patch enough? | |||
| aloha | (parrot/parrot) Issues opened : 761 (cygwin needs to strictly decide between X11 opengl and non-X11 opengl) by rurban : github.com/parrot/parrot/issues/761 | 21:44 | |
| dukeleto | rurban++ | ||
| rurban | mingw might be influenced. They might to add the w32api header path extra. | 21:45 | |
| cygwin folks persuaded me to favor X11 over native opengl now. | 21:46 | ||

| whiteknight | good evening, #parrot | 22:54 | |
| cotto | hi whiteknight | 22:59 | |
| whiteknight | hello cotto | ||
| bleh, I don't even have autoconf installed. I thought that was a staple | 23:18 | ||
| cotto | did you install build-essentials? | 23:19 | |
| istr it including that kind of thing | |||
| whiteknight | I'm getting it now | ||
| It's just weird that something so important wouldnt be included by default | 23:21 | ||
| cotto | that's one of the downsides of a consumer-oriented distribution | ||
| easy fix, of course | 23:22 | ||
| whiteknight | Ubuntu is the closet thing to a "perfect" distro that I've found, so I can't complain too much | ||
| rurban | Ubuntu with its GNOME3 mess? Debian maybe | 23:34 | |
| whiteknight | different things for different people, of course. I actually like unity | 23:35 | |
| I know that's not a very popular opinion | |||
| rurban++ # Still working on cygwin | 23:36 | ||
| rurban | got some hanging tests with cygwin. alarm, task. src/checkdepend.t also fails | 23:37 | |
