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).
This is the first results from profiling callsites of
StringData::initLiteral. This diff converts a handful more
string literals to StaticString, removes overloaded Variant
comparison operators (operator==, etc), and avoids
constructing new strings in a few cases in tvCastToString
and tvCastToStringInPlace.
Currently, as soon as it finds a bad field, it gives up.
Some android devices consistently create a bad field (that
we dont care about) right before fields that we do care about
(the orientation, in particular).
Most exif parsers just move on to the next field in this case;
this changes ours to do the same.
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
Removed the litstr overloads of Array::rvalAt, rvalAtRef, lval,
lvalPtr, lvalAt, and set. The main one left to do is operator[].
Fixed a bug in f_get_html_translation_table() where we were copying
the null terminator of what should be a one-character string, thus
creating a two-character string with s[1] == 0. (cc @jdelong)
In class Extension, store a String for the name instead of
const char*. cc @sgolemon
This diff refactors some of the VM's logic for iterators (with a focus on
mutable iteration), delivering several improvements:
1) MIterCtx was renamed to MArrayIter, and the m_key and m_val fields
were eliminated.
2) Eliminated the need for MArrayIter to dynamically allocate a
MutableArrayIter object, and removed other layers of indirection as
well.
3) Reduced the size of HPHP::VM::Iter from 64 bytes down to 32 bytes.
4) Removed the "if (siPastEnd())" check when adding a new element to an
HphpArray or a ZendArray.
5) Moved all of the iterator logic into a single .cpp file.
This diff reworks FullPos's to point to current element instead of pointing
to the next element. It also splits up the IterFree instruction into two
instructions (IterFree and MIterFree). These changes allowed various logic
to be simplified and data structures to be reduced in size. There is
definitely more opportunity for refactoring, but I know the JIT helpers for
iteration have been carefully tuned and so I'll leave further refactoring
for future diffs.
Finally, I spent a little time cleaning up the bytecode spec a bit, mostly
with respect to iteration.
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.
