ReflectoinParamenter was fetching both type and type hint from the same field. That created an incompatible change with existing code and broke the mocking framework. Separated the type and type hint field to contain the possible different values.
This is a partial step towards merging the HPHP::VM namespace
up into its parent. To keep it reviewable/mergeable I'm not doing
everything at once here, but most of the code I've touched seems
improved. I've drawn an invisible line around the jit, Unit and
its cohort (Class, Func, PreClass, etc.); we'll get back to them
soon.
This is intended so reflection can be used (via getTypehintText and getReturnTypehintText) to regenerate code the user annotated with types. Essentially using reflection to intrispect code in order to generate type safe
(hack safe) code. That is particularly important for the tools that do dependency injection. The runtime should be oblivious to the change as the rich type annotation is currently only stored for the sake of reflection. For
functions the values are in the shared portion which is cold and should also take care of traits.
This is the first part of the work to expose type constraint and generic all the way to reflection. This first DIFF exposes the return type with generic types coming next.
unserialize() and call_user_func_array() were straightforward. They were
called from all over the runtime, but I renamed those implementations
and codemodded the runtime.
The is_* functions were only ever being called by the CVarRef signature,
so I deleted all the other ones (same for f_gettype). Only some of the
is_* functions were being called from the runtime, so I made inline
versions of those without the f_ prefix.
We only used it to get the values of certain class constants,
and to define the ObjectStaticCallbacks for every class.
We can put the class constants directly into the class_map
(we should have done that before for perf reasons), and then
the only remaining use of ObjectStaticCallbacks is to proxy
the Class* for each builtin class. So just use the Class*
directly.
Once this is in, Im just a small step away from eliminating
make -C hphp/system - so Im leaving a lot of dead code here.
Its going to be easier to delete it en masse, rather than
try to pick and chose now.
This diff suppresses the output of C++ for the "pure" classes defined in
system/classes, and it rips out all the uses of MethodCallPackage (except
for the i_* and ifa_* helpers, which we can go after separately).
Also cleans up a bunch of "if (hhvm)" and "#ifdef HHVM" checks in builtin_functions.cpp,
systemlib.cpp, object_data.cpp, and class_info.cpp (and the corresponding .h files).
Note that this does not completely remove the generated C++ files. We
still generate code for the PHP files in "system/globals" and we still
generate the g_class_map (because the VM needs g_class_map at startup
when it creates Class's for the extensions). We also still have the
dynamic_func_table/dynamic_class_table stuff, MethodCallPackage, and
the i_* and ifa_* helpers to support invoke_builtin() (which is still
used by the compiler).
This is in preparation for saving a Func* on the class to fix the perf.
It turns out Properties were never used on a single class in the IDL so HHVM never implemented them. Now it does.
This diff was a perfect exercise in "change very few lines but finding which lines to change takes hours".
Instead of having the body of the closure be in the ##__invoke()## on the ##Closure## class, instead we make an anonymous function on the real class and put the body there. The signature for this function is:
function methodForClosure$1234($arg1, $arg2, ..., $use1, $use2, ...)
and then ##__invoke## now just takes all the params that were passed to it, puts them as the first args to the anonymous function, then takes all the use variables it had saved up and passed them in as the next params.
I tried to not have an ##__invoke## at all, but I ended up basically doing the same parameter and use var repacking in iopFCall (and would have had to do it in x86 code too). I opted for doing the rejiggering in bytecode. If I did it in raw PHP I think it would have been much slower with many ##func_get_args()## and array operations.
This change is mostly for FB internal organizational reasons.
Building is not effected beyond the fact that the target now
lands in hphp/hhvm/hhvm rather than src/hhvm/hhvm.
