opt_invokebuiltin_delegate and opt_invokebuiltin_delegate_leave
invokes builtin functions with same parameters of the method.
This technique eliminate stack push operations. However, delegation
parameters should be completely same as given parameters.
(e.g. `def foo(a, b, c) __builtin_foo(a, b, c)` is okay, but
__builtin_foo(b, c) is not allowed)
This patch relaxes this restriction. ISeq has a local variables
table which includes parameters. For example, the method defined
as `def foo(a, b, c) x=y=nil`, then local variables table contains
[a, b, c, x, y]. If calling builtin-function with arguments which
are sub-array of the lvar table, use opt_invokebuiltin_delegate
instruction with start index. For example, `__builtin_foo(b, c)`,
`__builtin_bar(c, x, y)` is okay, and so on.
Instead of reading from the files by the full-path at runtime. As
rbinc files need to be included in distributed tarballs, the
full-paths at the packaging are unavailable at compilation times.
miniruby load *.rb from srcdir. To specify file path,
tool/mk_builtin_loader.rb embed full path of each *.rb file.
However it prevent to pre-generation of required files for tarball.
This patch generate srcdir/*.rb from __FILE__ information.
Support loading builtin features written in Ruby, which implement
with C builtin functions.
[Feature #16254]
Several features:
(1) Load .rb file at boottime with native binary.
Now, prelude.rb is loaded at boottime. However, this file is contained
into the interpreter as a text format and we need to compile it.
This patch contains a feature to load from binary format.
(2) __builtin_func() in Ruby call func() written in C.
In Ruby file, we can write `__builtin_func()` like method call.
However this is not a method call, but special syntax to call
a function `func()` written in C. C functions should be defined
in a file (same compile unit) which load this .rb file.
Functions (`func` in above example) should be defined with
(a) 1st parameter: rb_execution_context_t *ec
(b) rest parameters (0 to 15).
(c) VALUE return type.
This is very similar requirements for functions used by
rb_define_method(), however `rb_execution_context_t *ec`
is new requirement.
(3) automatic C code generation from .rb files.
tool/mk_builtin_loader.rb creates a C code to load .rb files
needed by miniruby and ruby command. This script is run by
BASERUBY, so *.rb should be written in BASERUBY compatbile
syntax. This script load a .rb file and find all of __builtin_
prefix method calls, and generate a part of C code to export
functions.
tool/mk_builtin_binary.rb creates a C code which contains
binary compiled Ruby files needed by ruby command.
