by Fabrizio Perin (fabrizio.perin@gmail.com) at July 20, 2020 06:11 AM

A MCConfigurationExtended is a configuration with author initials, timestamp, UUID identifier, comment, and a list of prior versions. Its external storage format is organized for compatibility with MCConfiguration, such that an image wtih support for only MCConfiguration can use configurations saved from a MCConfigurationExtended.

The intended use is to enable documentation of configuration maps, and to allow modifications to a configuration map without loss of version history.

When editing an MCConfiguration, a copyForEdit of the configuration is modfied, leaving the prior configuration in the version history. When saving an edited version, an editor window allows a version comment to be entered for the new configuration. Version history for a saved MCConfiguration is trimmed to a maximum of 10 prior versions to maintain reasonable storage size. Full version history can be reconstructed based on the UUID identifiers.

MCConfigurationBrowser provides a "Versions" button to open an explorer on the version history of a configuration. No other support for browsing version history and comments is provided.

MCConfigurationExtended is fully backward compatible such that saved versions will be rendered as simple MCConfiguration without version history in an image that lacks support for the extended format.

A SqueakSource server must have this update applied before it can render a saved MCConfigurationExtended.

Merge VMMaker.oscog-ul.2763
add missing SHA2Plugin to the list of plugins

by Eliot Miranda (eliot.miranda@gmail.com) at June 25, 2020 10:03 PM

1) Revise a bit the tranformation of assignment/returns for C code generation (see below)

2) Do not try to generate SHA256Plugin, it's obsolete and absent from latest cryptography packages.

In Smalltalk, every statement is an expression that can be used in other expression, assigned to variables, etc...

In C, not all statements are valid expressions, or IOW, not all statements have a value.
In C parlance, rvalues are the ones which can be used at the right of an assignment, lvalues the ones which can be used on the left of an assignment.

While working on FFI, I had invalid code generated looking like:

err = switch(atomicType) ...

This is because there is brittle code for transforming some expressions, which are not generic enough.

For example, we have similar TSwitchStmtListNode and TCaseStmtNode for handling #dispatchOn:in:, but not exactly same handling of both.

Before this change, an overview can be given by reviewing senders of:
#isSwitch #isCaseStmt

This commit is an attempt to enhance/generalize handling of such non-rvalues by distributing the handling of those constructs in TParseNode hierarchy.

A slight change, is that assigning/returning result of a caseOf: without otherwise clause did create a default branch with an error message and a default value for the returned expression/assigned variable.
See #emitCCodeOn:addToEndOfCases:level:generator:
or #emitCCodeOn:prependToEndOfCases:level:generator:

The new #transformInAssignmentTo: only create the error message, but does not provide the default value.
This is because type analysis might have been not yet taken place at time of transformation.
Is this really needed? I don't think so.

Please review!
We might want to further extend the mechanism.

Fix testIntAliasCall by calling the version that answers an int, not an IntAlias.

Fix testPointers - at least for the experimental FFI branch https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/tree/experimental_FFI

This version of FFI does not return an ExternalStructure when we return a pointer. It returns an ExternalData!
This is logical, we have no idea if the function returns a pointer to a single struct or to a whole array.

by Nicolas Cellier (nicolas.cellier.aka.nice@gmail.com) at June 21, 2020 08:39 PM

Make the compiledSpecs of struct pointers conform to the experimental FFI branch (thru #adjustPointerType)

See https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/tree/experimental_FFI

Simplify a bit ExternalData access (at: / at:put:).
The assumption that ExternalDataType is the type of the contents and not the type of the reference helps simplifying IMO.

We might want to make it more complete once we deal with pointer arity.
It's not the case yet.

by Nicolas Cellier (nicolas.cellier.aka.nice@gmail.com) at June 21, 2020 08:34 PM

Major changes to FFI:

- always wrap returned value into its ExternalTypeAlias when it's an atomic value
This is necessary so that we can chain FFI calls, because, FFI only accept instance of ExternalTypeAlias on input
Note that an alias to a pointer (like void *) will be wrapped in an ExternalData fromHandle: ExternalAddress

- handle only these combinations
FFIFlagAtomic & nil referentClass
FFIFlagAtomic + FFIFlagPointer & nil referentClass
FFIFlagAtomic & atomic TypeAlias referentClass
FFIFlagAtomic + FFIFlagPointer & atomic TypeAlias referentClass
FFIFlagStructure & ExternalStructure referentClass
FFIFlagStructure + FFIFlagPointer & ExternalStructure referentClass

When a non nil referentClass is specified in external function API, only accept:
- an instance of the referentClass (or subclass) if an atomic value (TypeAlias)/or struct (both by reference or value)
- an ExternalData whose type points to same referentClass (or subclass)
- eventually nil if passed by reference

An ExternalData is accepted even when the arguments are passed by value.
This enables passing direct reference to external variables (global variables exported by the ExternalLibrary).
Hence the new ffiPushDereference* protocol.

Also accept double-byte, word and double-word arrays when the referentClass is nil.
TODO: accept them as valid memory area thru ExternalData too... (not the case yet).

Side notes:

- this version of the plugin requires image side changes:
Most notably, Pointer to struct needs to have FFIFlagStructure+FFIFlagPointer set in their compiledSpec.

- provision has been made to make the plugin more permissive (ffiHasPermissiveArgCheck)
For the case when type checking and marshalling is taken care at image side (in UFFI), the plugin might want to handle lower level data (ExternalAddress and immediate values) with less checks.
The plan would be to add a flag in the ExternalFunction flags (used only for ABI cdecl/apicall by now), so as to give a maximum of flexibility and let mixed FFI/UFFI coexist peacefully (this might happen if your application depends on a lot of 3rd party)

- The FFI flags/typeSpec encoding shall be revised.
Obviously, we do not need both Atomic+Structure flags
A type is either atomic, or it is composite, but not both, nor neither
There are plenty unused combinations, and previous encoding was somehow mysterious

- it might be good to encode pointer arity in the type spec for more safety
If we keep 1 bit for indicating a pointer, then with 2 or 3 extra bits, we can encode extra arity (up to 4 or 8 levels, more than enough)
Those bits can be resused for something else when non pointer (extra size for example...)

- it might be good to encode byte alignment in the spec rather than re-computing it in the plugin. This way, we could manage exotic/specific byte alignment at image side (byte alignment can vary with C compile flags! Not recommended, but can happen!)

- considerable simplification/acceleration could be obtained if we ensured unchanged ExternalType identity between ExternalFunction specification and types used in ExternalData.
Note that this type is not easily accessible when an ExternalStructure/ExternalTypeAlias is passed as argument. Maybe it should!

- both structTypeNamed: and their corresponding pointerType share the same ExternalStructure/ExternalTypeAlias referentClass.
There is thus some kind of ambiguity, we never know if a Foo or Foo* was passed on input or returned on output (there is no direct way to retrieve ExternalTypeAliasFoo externalType from the plugin)
This is going to be a problem if we add pointer arity support.

Note that I lost the ability to raise the FFIErrorIntAsPointer, but that's minor, we can bring it back if we want to.

With those changes, I can somehow have the basic examples of HDF5 interface working (http://www.squeaksource.com/STEM), which is a challenge, HDF5 has a rich/complex API (uses external variables, callbacks, many types, alias enums struct and unions, many functions)

by Nicolas Cellier (nicolas.cellier.aka.nice@gmail.com) at June 21, 2020 06:04 PM

Many changes to make it work.

This requires both
- a recent version of FFI
- a recent version of the plugin (to be published soon)

Among the changes:
- use C types size_t int and uint instead of Size_t long and ulong
long and ulong are squeakism for int32_t, it's better to not use them
- do not forget to pass the callback thunk to foreign function
- fix call to loadSymbol:module: it takes moduleName as second argument, not an instance of ExternalLibrary
- do not dereference the global datatype variable, but let the foreign funciton call do that
This requires a new version of FFI plugin
- do not forget to re-initialize the H5atatype on startup
- ensure to call H5open before we ever attempt to open/create an H5File
- wrap a few values into there respective ExternalTypeAlias
- unwrap those type alias when we want to use their value

With those changes and new plugin I can execute the very elementary example from Smallissimo blog, and contemplate the result thru HDFView utility.

out:= H5File create: 'foo.h5' .
H5Dataset createPath: 'float1' parent: out rootGroup value: 1.3e0.
H5Dataset createPath: 'double2' parent: out rootGroup value: Float pi.
H5Dataset createPath: 'int3' parent: out rootGroup value: -357.
out close.

Same reason as: ToolBuilder-Morphic-TheresaHMartenK.261

Copy:
The current implementation searches for the supplied answer in the valueList and if found returns the value at the found index in the valueList which of course is the supplied answer. However from the behaviour that gets mimicked you would expect the implementation to look for the suppliedAnswer in the labelList - the same as you click on the label and not on its connected value. Additionally this produces less readable / understandable code compared to supplying the label, especially if the value happens to be a block.

With the new implementation, the answer is searched in the labelList, and the returned value is the coresponding value from the valueList.

However from the behaviour that gets mimicked you would expect the implementation to look for the suppliedAnswer in the labelList - the same as you click on the label and not on its connected value. Additionally this produces less readable / understandable code compared to supplying the label, especially if the value happens to be a block.

With the new implementation, the answer is searched in the labelList, and the returned value is the coresponding value from the valueList.

Since Monticello does not care about the correct field compilation order, just print errors to the transcript. See #compileAllFields to understand what you should actually do.

Complements FFI-Kernel-mt.117

Note that the removed methods are the auto-generated ones. No worries.

by Marcel Taeumel (marcel.taeumel@hpi.uni-potsdam.de) at June 20, 2020 11:17 AM

For the sake of code readability: untangles the specific role of struct types during field-accessor generation and dynamic field access into new subclass: ExternalStructureType. The implementation of ExternalType is now lighter again.

Note that this change does not affect FFI calls as is. The particular class of an external type is not relevant for type coercing during FFI calls and also not for packaging the return value. What matters is instVar 0 being the compiledSpec and instVar 1 being the referentClass. That does not change with this commit.

(Note that I added type checks to the generated field code. Those could easily be removed if not wanted. I suppose that implementing #assert: in ExternalStructure controlled by a pragma preference would be a good way of making type checks during field write-access optional.)

In the process, fixed the following things:
- regression for reading fields that are type alias to pointer type.
- uniform pointer access as #pointerAt:length: and #pointerAt:put:length: just like #structAt:length: and #structAt:put:length:. Makes the generated code more readable and avoids accessing the global "ExternalAddress wordSize".
- regression with #defineFields: because of the recent change to include #absent rule for #generated field compilation. So, avoid overwriting fields that are manually managed even if you use #defineFields instead of #compileFields.

Actually provide a default for type name for type aliases that can work. :-)

by Marcel Taeumel (marcel.taeumel@hpi.uni-potsdam.de) at June 19, 2020 06:03 PM

Try to deal with the issue of having the wrong generated code present in the image.

(1) Avoid checking in generated field accessors via Monticello by putting them into *'autogenerated - accessing' instead of 'accessing' category

(2) Expand the #generated rule to also generate field accessors if the selector is not yet present (or if <generated> is found if present). That rule is used when re-compiling all struct fields on a platform change. See #compileAllFields.

So, you can still choose to manually manage field accessors by adding them in your own 'accessing' category and removing the <generated> pragma. But then you would be on your own. :-)

Adds a way to store size into external data to be used in an enumeration protocol.

Note that this may just be for debugging when the FFI plugin automatically creates fitting Smalltalk objects from this data. For example, int* can become IntegerArray etc. On second thought, it might be challenging for the FFI plugin to figure out the size of such an array on its own.

(Next: I will try to add a simple #setSizeFromZeroTermination)

Adds an interface to interpret ExternalData. The behavior compares with the code generated for struct-field accessors, i.e., #readFieldAt: <=> #handle:at: and #writeFieldAt:with: <=> #handle:at:put:.

In contrast to the interface in ByteArray/ExternalAddress, offer guards to avoid misinterpretation. For example, compare ExternalData >> #signedLongLongAt: with ByteArray >> #signedLongLongAt:. Note that you can always force a different interpretation through ExternalData >> #asType:.

Also clarify the role of ExternalData by hard-coding #byteAlignment, #byteSize, #compiledSpec, etc.

Also offer a simple way to convert external structures (and unions) to external data and back. Note the difference between #asExternalStructure and #getExternalStructure. I hope the name is okay.

Fix: inspecting the stack top only inspected its printString instead.

June 06, 2020 04:29 PM

Adds suport for lookup of external types through the 'type constants' protocol. Some FFI calls did this already by, for example, referring to 'unsignedByte' instead of 'byte'. Maybe because of "ExternalType unsignedByte". (This could be used to tackle the #ffiLongVsInt issue by adding #int to 'type constants'. Not sure.)

Makes print-string for external structures reveal whether their contents got copied over into a byte array. Now you can see, e.g., in the inspector or object explorer whether the #identityHash is constantly changing ... and that calls to simple setters might not have the expected effect. Note that user-defined external structures can (and maybe should) implement their own notion of #printOn: as usual.

Avoid sending select/deselect to the editor in case of interactive correction.

These are st80 specific, forcing Morphic to have stubs, and are considered too intrusive: we should better let such responsibility to the editor, that's its own business.

The send of #select was un-necessary anyway, because selectFrom:to: will send #selectAndScroll, which will send #select.

However, deselect was still required for st80, so replace the sequence deselect; selectInvisiblyFrom:to: with a single message #selectIntervalInvisibly: which is provided by ST80-nice.254 and Morphic-nice.1657.

Why is this needed? As explained in the st80 commit, we want to restore the (eventually slightly modified) user selection once the corrections are performed.

We must do that at each correction, so as to correctly track addition or delection of characters (the selection interval might need to grow or shrink accordingly).

But we do not want to make the user selection visible instantly, otherwise the selection will go back to user selection and forth to next zone of interactive correction repeatedly creating an annoying flashing effect.

Care to let future reader know about it with a comment, there's nothing that obvious which could make the comment superfluous!

Fixes a bug regarding decompilation of special selectors.

The following did not work before:

(OrderedCollection >> #asArray) decompile generate valueWithReceiver: {42} asOrderedCollection arguments: #(). "MessageNotUnderstood: OrderedCollection>>#Array=>Array"

Fixes a bug regarding decompilation of FullBlockClosures

Sample to reproduce: [^ true] decompile should NOT return {[]}!

Even if there is a new list of objects, we must still try to mergeIndexFrom: previous list.
Indeed, it happens that object in the new list declare having identical index than same object on previous list...

Also the numberOfRawDataChunks must be queried only using updated object list, otherwise attempts to obtain totalRawDataSizeInBytes from a NITDMSRawDataIndexIdentical will fail.

Simplify allocation: don't mess with the arrayClass own business, it knows how.
Add a few class comments.

Fixup inst. var. refactoring typo s/dimensio/dimension/
Remove noteNoRawData (same as super)

Fixup: better merging the previous metaData before counting the number of values.

Thus, the lastNumberOfValues is gone from channel object.

Fixup the count of values for channels: the number of consecutive identical chunks was not taken into account!

by nicolas cellier (nicolas.cellier.aka.nice@gmail.com) at May 04, 2020 01:38 AM

Many changes, including:
- Use OrderedDictionary so as to preserve order of the list of objects in metaData, but also of groups and channels.
- Let Channel object have dataTypes and values.
- Introduce allocation of Smalltalk BitsArrays corresponding to foreign dataTypes.
- Implement reading a single channel as a POC. This uses the BulkDataTransfer package.
TODO: read multiple channels with same tricks.

First version for bulk transfer of raw data using Bit Blit when both srcArray and dstArray class isBits.

Especially useful when reading foreign binary data files.

Beware, this version is not much tested yet.
