Move the implementation to C++ land. This is similar to commit 3f65916
but this time for the write() function and the Buffer(s, 'hex')
constructor.
Speeds up the benchmark below about 24x (2.6s vs 1:02m).
var s = 'f';
for (var i = 0; i < 26; ++i) s += s; // 64 MB
Buffer(s, 'hex');
If the NODE_DEBUGGER_TIMEOUT environment variable is set, then use
that as the number of ms to wait for the debugger to start.
This is primarily to work around a race condition that almost never
happens in real usage with the debugger, but happens EVERY FRACKING
TIME when the debugger tests run as part of 'make test'.
Move the implementation to C++ land. The old JS implementation used
string concatenation, was dog slow and consumed copious amounts of
memory for large buffers. Example:
var buf = Buffer(0x1000000); // 16 MB
buf.toString('hex') // Used 3+ GB of memory.
The new implementation operates in O(n) time and space.
Fixes#4700.
If the end argument is omitted or not a number, make it default to
the end of the buffer, not zero.
Ideally, it should not matter what it defaults to because the JS shim
in lib/buffer.js should handle that but there are still several places
in node.js core that secrete SlowBuffers, hence Buffer::Copy() gets
called without going through Buffer.prototype.copy() first.
It's segfaulting in release mode and asserting in debug mode:
#
# Fatal error in ../../deps/v8/src/api.h, line 297
# CHECK(allow_empty_handle || that != __null) failed
#
This reverts commit 99f0b022d5.
Before sending handle to another process using uv_write2(), it should be
referenced to prevent it from being GCed before AfterWrite() will be
called.
see #4599
mainly to allow native addons to export single functions on
rather than being restricted to operating on an existing
object.
Init functions now receive exports as the first argument, like
before, but also the module object as the second argument, if they
support it.

* Omit ToObject() call. Buffer::Data() and Buffer::Length() know how
to deal with Values.
* Don't check if the argument is undefined because it realistically
never is and undefined->integer coercion achieves the same thing.
Fix issue where SlowBuffers couldn't be passed as target to Buffer
copy().
Also included checks to see if Argument parameters are defined before
assigning their values. This offered ~3x's performance gain.
Backport of 16bbecc from master branch. Closes#4633.
Changed types of errors thrown to be more indicative of what the error
represents. Also removed a few unnecessary uses of the v8 fully
quantified typename.

Removed range checks when writing float values, and removed a few

bit float is an unspecified behavior.
Fix an off-by-one error introduced in 9fe3734 that caused a regression
in the default endianness used for writes in DataView::setGeneric().
Fixes#4626.
Due to the nature of asyncronous programming, it's impossible to know
what will run on the next tick. Because of this, it's not correct to
maintain domain stack state between ticks
Since the _fatalException handler is only invoked after the stack is
unwound, once it exits the tick will end. The only reasonable thing to
do in that case is to exit *all* domains.

Reject negative offsets in SlowBuffer::MakeFastBuffer(), it allows
the creation of buffers that point to arbitrary addresses.
Reported by Trevor Norris.
V8 seems to be particularly slow converting an undefined value to false
in BooleanValue.
Revert this when we upgrade to V8 3.17, or whenever the fix discussed
in http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=2487 lands in V8.
Improvements:
* floating point operations are approx 4x's faster
* Now write quiet NaN's
* all read/write on floating point now done in C, so no more need for
lib/buffer_ieee754.js
* float values have more accurate min/max value checks
* add additional benchmarks for buffers read/write
* created benchmark/_bench_timer.js which is a simple library that
can be included into any benchmark and provides an intelligent tracker
for sync and async tests
* add benchmarks for DataView set methods
* add checks and tests to make sure offset is greater than 0
The int8_t and uint8_t typedefs on sunos/smartos depend on a number of
compiler directives. Avoid ambiguity and specify signed and unsigned
char explicitly.

Implement load and store swizzling operations. This reduces an unneeded
back and forth between types and additionally keeps the value in the
swappable type until it is swapped. This is important for correctness
when dealing with floating point, to avoid the possibility of loading
the bits of a signaling NaN (because it isn't yet swapped) into the FPU.
This additionally produces better code (comments are mine):
gcc version 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.11.00)
setValue<double>:
movd %xmm0, %rax ; fp reg -> gen reg
bswapq %rax ; 64-bit byte swap
movq %rax, (%r15,%r12) ; store
Implement swizzling with compiler intrinsics and be aware of the native
endianness to correctly swap on big endian machines.
This introduces a template function to swap the bytes of a value,
and macros for the low level swap (taking advantage of gcc and msvc
intrinsics). This produces code like the following (comments are mine):
gcc version 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.11.00)
setValue<double>:
movd %xmm0, %rax ; fp reg -> gen reg
bswapq %rax ; 64-bit byte swap
movd %rax, %xmm0 ; gen reg -> fp reg
movq %xmm0, (%r15,%r12) ; store
