In HHVM (and HPHPc before it) we've been piggybacking resources on the
KindOfObject machinery. At the language level, resource is considered to
be a different type than object, and there are a number of differences
in behavior between objects and resources (ex. resources don't allow for
dynamic properties, resources don't work with the clone operator, the
"(object)" cast behaves differently for resources vs. objects, etc).
Piggybacking resources on the KindOfObject machinery has some downsides.
Code that deals with KindOfObject values often needs to check if the value
is a resource and go down a different code path. This makes things harder
to maintain and harder to keep parity with Zend. Also, these extra branches
hurt performance a little, and they make it harder for the JIT to do a good
job in some cases when its generating machine code that operates on objects.
This diff prepares the code base for a new KindOfResource type by adding a
new "Resource" smart pointer type (currently a typedef for the Object smart
pointer type) and it updates the C++ code and the idl files appropriately.
This diff is essentially a cosmetic change and should not impact run time
behavior. In the next diff (part 2) we'll actually add a new KindOfResource
type, detach ResourceData from the ObjectData inheritence hierarchy, and
provide a real implementation for the Resource smart pointer type (instead
of just aliasing the Object smart pointer type).
C++11 cleanup (clean up easy enums)
This is for runtime/base/... and ended up touching a lot of files
because it turns out we have a lot of reasonably behaved enums.
GetStaticString() is now the only way to get a static string,
so enforce it and short-circuit out when asking for an already-
static string.
Add a GetStaticString(data,len) overload and up some dead code along the way.
This adds a new trace macro to allow tracing to the ring buffer in release builds. It also performs normal tracing, too, like TRACE(n, ...). Converted a number of trace/log messages in the debugger to the new macro so we have this data when we get a core file. I've converted things that we've found useful lately, but this will be adjusted over time quite a lot as we discover new things that help us find problems more quickly, or find messages that turn our to be useless or spammy.
I was learning from @jdelong and he said that you should use
double quotes for local includes and angle brackets for library
includes. I asked why our code was the way it was, and he said he wanted
to clean it up. I beat him to it :)
Conflicts:
hphp/runtime/base/server/admin_request_handler.cpp
hphp/runtime/vm/named_entity.h
This gets rid of the (litstr) StringData and StackStringData
constructors, but keeps String(litstr). Also rename all
the instances of AttachLiteral to CopyString, since they now
mean the same thing.
While I was working on the TestCodeRun refactor I found two tests about Tainted code. I looked into it and coulnd't get HHVM to compile with TAINTED=1. Then I checked and none of the extension functions we exposed about tainting were used in WWW. Scratching my head I asked, @srenfro and @jdelong, who thought it was dead. So I killed this zombie.
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.
Post-hphpc, declaring builtins as inline is useless, which obviates the
need for this layer.
This doesn't fully delete the file, because I wanted to keep mindless
parts and use-your-brain parts separate. This is the mindless part. The
remaining functions in noinline.cpp are no-inline wrappers around
(a) a function that isn't defined in an extension, call_user_func_array,
and (b) calling polymorphic is_* functions, which can probably mostly go
away now. But I wanted to exercise more care around those, so they'll
come in a followup diff.
Per @mwilliams' suggestion, this is the first stage in a staggered approach to replacing int64 with int64_t. More precisely I inserted "typedef ::int64_t int64;" in util/base.h and dealt with the consequences.
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.
