[Pharo-project] code coverage?

by John McIntosh

Ok as I'm testing this new VM I"m wondering has anyone done a code coverage review of the Pharo image in relationship to the suite of available tests? I wondering how much of the image side code is actually used? Part of the problem here in cross checking the list of internal plugins is that I need test cases to actually exploit the plugin code so that I can confirm it works, even to confirm it gets called. No doubt from the other side it would be interesting to see from a VM platform perspective if the Smalltalk Sunits actually execute a reasonable set of the slang/objective-c/C code. -- =========================================================================== John M.

[Pharo-project] 64bit VMs some thoughts.

by John M McIntosh

So you sit there smug about the fact you built a 64bit VM, likely for hosting on your 64bit Linux OS. {Or the unix one for Darwin, or that new fangled cocoa one} However it's possible that it's running 1/3 the performance of the 32bit VM. Did you check? Thought not... So let's talk. Are you using the gnuifed version of interp.c? If you don't know, well go check. Are you using GCC 4.1 or higher? The interpreter loop is highly tuned monster that suffers from compiler optimization issues. With careful tuning parms as found in the macintosh xcode build project for the carbon VM using gcc 4.0 you'll get the most optimum performance. GCC 4.2+ ? Michael Rueger and I spent a few days attempting to get good performance out of GCC 4.2 WITHOUT success. I think that can account for at least a 33% slowdown. So where does the other 33% slowdown come from? Well when we compile the VM in 64bit to use a 32bit image each reference to an oops requires us to add a 64bit memory start address to the 32bit oops number to resolve to a 64bit memory address. Unfortunately GCC 4.2 growls, and produces the lousiest code possible to do this. Maybe higher versions of GCC are better? Anyone care to test? So some solutions. (a) Ensure the squeak oops memory block loads within the 0-4GB address space. See pagezero size for Darwin. Then alter the logic a bit so that sqMemoryBase is zero and that the squeak memory accessors don't do the add of sqMemoryBase=0 to the oops address. Although you might have to use GCC 4.2 you'll run 100% faster. (b) Use the (non-free) Intel compiler -- =========================================================================== John M.

Pertaining the bug #1155 http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=1155, it seems to me that we need to register the change for the class name so the SystemWindow gets updated: O2PackageBrowser class>>registerForNotifications Smalltalk at: #SystemChangeNotifier ifPresent: [:cls | (cls uniqueInstance) noMoreNotificationsFor: self; notify: self ofSystemChangesOfItem: #class change: #Added using: #classModified:; notify: self ofSystemChangesOfItem: #class change: #Modified using: #classModified:; notify: self ofSystemChangesOfItem: #class change: #Renamed using: #classModified:; notify: self ofSystemChangesOfItem: #class change: #Commented using: #classModified:; notify: self ofSystemChangesOfItem: #class change: #Recategorized using: #classMoved:; notify: self ofSystemChangesOfItem: #class change: #Removed using: #classModified:; notify: self ofSystemChangesOfItem: #method change: #Added using: #methodModified:; notify: self ofSystemChangesOfItem: #method change: #Modified using: #methodModified:; notify: self ofSystemChangesOfItem: #method change: #Recategorized using: #methodModified:; notify: self ofSystemChangesOfItem: #method change: #Removed using: #methodModified: ].

[Pharo-project] macintosh cocoa 32/64bit & 64/64bit VM goes BETA

by John M McIntosh

Ok, it's time for the community to do some testing. ESUG provided me with some funding to take the existing iPhone VM source and extend that to build a new hosting platform using Cocoa on the macintosh and to enable the VM to run in 32 or 64 bit mode and work with a 32 or 64bit image. I have placed two Alpha test VM s in the experimental folder sub-folder COCOA found in the usual places via http://smalltalkconsulting.com/squeak.html There are two VM's (a) a 32/64 bit VM that runs 32bit squeak images in 32bit (powerpc, intel) or 64bit (intel) mode. (b) a 64/64 bit VM that runs 64bit squeak images in 64bit (intel). The VM currently runs on 10.5.x and 10.6.x Support for 10.4.x might happen, we will see. Until I sort out the re-integration of the source code into the squeakvm.org SVN tree you will find the source at isqueak.org Issues, Oh lots. It's a fairly high mountain of material that needs to be tested. Things that should work. (a) access to files and directories UTF8 support only. (b) Full screen support (c) Sockets (d) Basic Sound (better than in the 3.x/4.x VMs) (e) jpegplugin2 (f) cut/copy/paste of text data (from/to) squeak and respect UTF8 chars (g) drag and drop of files into squeak Right now it does not: (a) Support a internet browser as a browser plugin. (b) The 64bit VM has no plugins at the moment. (b2) I've not included any plugins with the 32/64bit VM. Existing plugins might work if the VM is running as "Open in 32bit mode" someone can confirm that. (c) No macintosh host menus, or serial port support (d) No Areithfa Ffenestri multiple-window support (e) No 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 bit appearance support. Things I know about. (a) double clicking *.images when the 5.x VM is running sometimes does not open a new VM. (b) tossing a 32 image at the 64/64 bit VM or a 64 image at the 32/64 VM doesn't give visual feedback that it won't open the image. (c) Full screen grabs all the screens, yes that will change Thoughts on internal plugins. Hint we should have TEST cases so we can confirm if all this stuff works. It would be extremely helpful if someone wanted to work on that. No doubt someone *could* run all the current tests for a 32bit image and see what breaks. However you'll need to explain where and what, versus Oh it just crashed... ADPCMCodecPlugin, untested. Squeak3D, Likely busted due to use of (int) data types in 64bit mode. B2DPlugin, untested. BitBltPlugin, untested. BMPReadWriterPlugin, untested. ZipPlugin, untested. DSAPrims, untested. SqueakFFIPrims, untested. FFTPlugin, untested. FloatArrayPlugin, untested. GeniePlugin, untested. HostWindowPlugin, No support yet JPEGReaderPlugin, untested. Klatt, untested. LargeIntegers, untested. Matrix2x3Plugin, untested. MiscPrimitivePlugin, untested. ObjectiveCPlugin, untested. RePlugin, Likely busted due to use of (int) data types in 64bit mode. SecurityPlugin, untested. SoundCodecPrims, Likely busted due to use of (int) data types in 64bit mode. SoundGenerationPlugin, Likely busted due to use of (int) data types in 64bit mode. StarSqueakPlugin, untested. SurfacePlugin, untested. UUIDPlugin untested. Possibly Large Integers may have a problem in 64bit image mode, but we have to have some discussion if the (unsigned int *) used by one routine is on purpose or an oversight. 64 bit images. We need to built a 64bit Closure image. **** I've no time to do that. *** David T Lewis provided a somewhat current Squeak.image which you'll find on the ftp site. If you build a 64bit image you need to do that on a PowerPC, or make a copy of your VM on macIntel and flip the "Open in 32-bit mode" and the "Open in Rosetta" to on. You will only see the "Open in 32bit mode" if it's a 64bit VM, and the "Open in Rosetta on os-x for 10.5 or 10.6 (if you installed it) Follow the obvious instructions. No doubt some is required to take the code and build a MC change set for Pharo or Squeak Thrunk use so that anyone can convert an existing image. Also see http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=5239 http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=5240 Building your own VM? Hopefully someone will attempt this so I can see if I checked in all the changes. 32bit image VM pick SqueakPureObjc and set #define SQ_VI_BYTES_PER_WORD 4 for a 64bit image reading VM pick SqueakPureObjc64*64 and set #define SQ_VI_BYTES_PER_WORD 8 in the required places. PS You'll find that building a 32/64 VM using GNU's tool chain will give you lousy performance when running as a 64bit VM, more on this later. ---------------------------------------------- Oh and lastly I'm looking for some paid work (smalltalk or objective-c (mac/iPhone) If anyone requires a Smalltalk consultant, or an iPhone app built, please email me. -- =========================================================================== John M.
