The return hook should be called only after closing variables (which
are still part of the function). C functions were calling the hook
before the metamethods.
Completes commit b07fc10e91. '__close' metamethods can yield even
when they are being called due to an error. '__close' metamethods from
C functions are still not allowed to yield.
Initial implementation to allow yields inside '__close' metamethods.
This current version still does not allow a '__close' metamethod
to yield when called due to an error. '__close' metamethods from
C functions also are not allowed to yield.
Closing a to-be-closed variable with 'lua_settop' is too restrictive,
as it erases all slots above the variable. Moreover, it adds side
effects to 'lua_settop', which should be a fairly basic function.
When available, use the calling code to find a suitable name for what
was being called; this is particularly useful for errors of non-callable
metamethods. This commit also improved the debug information for
order metamethods.
A to-be-closed variable is constant and it must have a close metamethod
when it is created. A program has to go out of its way (e.g., by
changing the variable's metamethod) to invalidate that check. So,
it is not worth to test that again. If the program tampers with the
metamethod, Lua will raise a regular error when attempting to call it.
Undo commit c220b0a5d0: '__close' is not called again in case of
errors. (Upvalue is removed from the list before the call.) The
common error that justified that change was C stack overflows, which
are much rarer with the stackless implementation.
* Avoids multiple definitions of 'lua_assert' in test file.
* Smaller C-stack limit in test mode.
* Note in the manual about the use of false
* Extra test for constant reuse.
References were using both 0 indices and nils as values in arrays.
Both do not fit in the concept of a sequence, which is the kind
of use that guides all Lua optimizations.
When a stack grows, its extra area can be in use, and it becomes part
of the common area. So, the extra area must be kept correct all the
times. (Bug introduced by commit 5aa36e894f5.)
The allocation of a userdata for the state of the warn system can
cause a panic if it fails; 'luaL_ref' also can fail. This commit
re-implements the warn system so that it does not need an explicit
state. Instead, the system uses different functions to represent
the different states.
Fixed the bug that a key removed from a table might not be found
again by 'next'. (This is needed to allow keys to be removed during a
traversal.) This bug was introduced in commit 73ec04fc.
Hashes for long strings are computed only when they are used as keys
in a table, not a too common case. And, in that case, it is to easy to
force collisions changing only the characters which are not part of the
hash.
- After converting a generic GCObject to a specific type ('gco2*'),
avoid using the original GCObject (to reduce aliasing).
- Small corrections in comments in 'lopcodes.h'
- Added tests about who calls __close metamethods
The stack size is derived from 'stack_last', when needed. Moreover,
the handling of stack sizes is more consistent, always excluding the
extra space except when allocating/deallocating the array.
Shrink a stack only when the final stack size can be at most 2/3 the
previous size with half of its entries empty. This commit also
improves the clarity of 'luaD_growstack'.
The previous stackless implementations marked all 'luaV_execute'
invocations as fresh. However, re-entering 'luaV_execute' when
resuming a coroutine should not be a fresh invocation. (It works
because 'unroll' called 'luaV_execute' for each call entry, but
it was slower than letting 'luaV_execute' finish all non-fresh
invocations.)
