When there is an error that is thrown in a nextTick function, which is
then handled by a domain or other process.on('uncaughtException')
handler, if the error handler *also* adds a nextTick and triggers
multiple MakeCallback events (ie, by doing some I/O), then it would
skip over the tickDepth check, resulting in an infinite spin.
Solution: Check the tickDepth at the start of the tick processing, and
preserve it when we are cleaning up in the error case or exiting early
in the re-entry case.
In order to make sure that tick callbacks are *eventually* handled, any
callback triggered by the underlying spinner in libuv will be processed
as if starting from a tick depth of 0.
I disabled the -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections switches in 202df30
because they're horribly buggy with some gcc/binutils combos.
However, it turns out that the dtrace/ustack post-processing tool requires
that V8 is compiled with said switches and was broken because of it.
This commit turns them on again on SunOS systems. Let's hope for the best.
Unconditionally compile V8 with -fno-strict-aliasing on all platforms.
gcc 4.5.2 on sunos generates bad code when -fstrict-aliasing is enabled, which
undoubtedly means that there are more buggy versions of gcc out there.
-fstrict-aliasing does not give a significant performance boost so let's just
disable it.
Fixes#3736.
Explicitly cast double to int64_t, it was making add-ons that compile with
`-Wall -Wextra -Werror` fail to build.
Don't use fully variadic macros, gcc in uber-strict mode rejects them.
This is rewrite of #3701 and #3603 before.
This patch introduce `util.inspect.styles`
and `util.inspect.colors` objects, which enables customization
of color sequences.
This allows us to run npm's scripts/relocate.sh script whenever
necessary, if for example node has been 'make install'ed into one
folder, and then you wish to move it into another one.
Link with -Wl,--export-dynamic, makes symbols from the node binary visible to
binary add-ons.
Fixes "undefined symbol: _ZN2v811HandleScopeC1Ev" errors when loading add-ons
on FreeBSD and likely other BSDs.
Fixes#3623.
This reverts commit 928ea564d1.
Keeping the original Array instance in-place essentially causes a memory leak
on EventEmitters that use an infinite number of event names (an incrementing
counter, for example), which isn't an unreasonable thing to want to do.
Fixes#3702.
V8 on ARM requires that armv7 is set. We don't have a good way to detect the
CPU model right now so we pick a default and hope that it works okay for the
majority of people.
Non-scientific sampling - the ARM hardware I have lying around the house -
suggests that ARMv5 and ARMv6 are still most common so armv7=0 it is.
This obviously needs to be revisited sometime in the future.
Compile at -O2 and disable optimizations that trigger gcc bugs.
Some people still reported mksnapshot crashes after commit b40f813 ("build: fix
spurious mksnapshot crashes for good" - so much for that).
Average performance of the -O2 binary is on par with the -O3 binary. Variance
on the http_simple bytes/8 benchmark appears to be slightly greater but small
enough that the possibly of it being noise cannot be excluded.
The new binary very slightly but consistently outperforms the -O3 binary (by
about 0.5%) on the mostly CPU-bound bytes/102400 benchmark. That could be an
artifact of the system I benchmarked it on, a Core 2 Duo with a puny 32 kB of
L1 instruction cache. The smaller binary seems to play nicer with the cache.
A variety of gcc bugs made mksnapshot crash with either a segmentation fault
or a 'pure virtual method callled' run-time error.
After much wailing and gnashing of teeth I managed to deduce that the bugs
show up when:
1. gcc 4.5.2 for i386-pc-solaris2.11 is used and -fstrict-aliasing is
enabled, or
2. gcc version 4.4.6 for x86_64-redhat-linux is used and
-ffunction-sections -finline-functions at -O2 or higher is enabled
Therefore, disable -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections unconditionally
and disable -fstrict-aliasing only on Solaris.
The -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections switches were nonsense anyway
because we don't link with -Wl,--gc-sections.
