Perl functions |
This file is the autogenerated documentation of functions in the Perl interpreter that are documented using Perl’s internal documentation format but are not marked as part of the Perl API . In other words, they are not for use in extensions!
CvWEAKOUTSIDE
Each CV has a pointer, "CvOUTSIDE()", to its lexically enclosing CV (if any). Because pointers to anonymous sub prototypes are stored in "&" pad slots, it is a possible to get a circular reference, with the parent pointing to the child and vice−versa. To avoid the ensuing memory leak, we do not increment the reference count of the CV pointed to by "CvOUTSIDE" in the one specific instance that the parent has a "&" pad slot pointing back to us. In this case, we set the "CvWEAKOUTSIDE" flag in the child. This allows us to determine under what circumstances we should decrement the refcount of the parent when freeing the child.
There is a further complication with non-closure anonymous subs (ie those that do not refer to any lexicals outside that sub). In this case, the anonymous prototype is shared rather than being cloned. This has the consequence that the parent may be freed while there are still active children, eg
BEGIN { $a = sub { eval ’$x’ } }
In this case, the BEGIN is freed immediately after execution since there are no active references to it: the anon sub prototype has "CvWEAKOUTSIDE" set since it’s not a closure, and $a points to the same CV , so it doesn’t contribute to BEGIN ’s refcount either. When $a is executed, the "eval ’$x’" causes the chain of "CvOUTSIDE"s to be followed, and the freed BEGIN is accessed.
To avoid this, whenever a CV and its associated pad is freed, any "&" entries in the pad are explicitly removed from the pad, and if the refcount of the pointed-to anon sub is still positive, then that child’s "CvOUTSIDE" is set to point to its grandparent. This will only occur in the single specific case of a non-closure anon prototype having one or more active references (such as $a above).
One other thing to consider is that a CV may be merely undefined rather than freed, eg "undef &foo". In this case, its refcount may not have reached zero, but we still delete its pad and its "CvROOT" etc. Since various children may still have their "CvOUTSIDE" pointing at this undefined CV , we keep its own "CvOUTSIDE" for the time being, so that the chain of lexical scopes is unbroken. For example, the following should print 123:
my $x = 123;
sub tmp { sub { eval ’$x’ } }
my $a = tmp();
undef &tmp;
print $a->();
bool CvWEAKOUTSIDE(CV *cv)

find_runcv
Locate the CV corresponding to the currently executing sub or eval. If db_seqp is non_null, skip CVs that are in the DB package and populate *db_seqp with the cop sequence number at the point that the DB:: code was entered. (allows debuggers to eval in the scope of the breakpoint rather than in in the scope of the debugger itself).
CV* find_runcv(U32 *db_seqp)
PL_DBsingle
When Perl is run in debugging mode, with the −d switch, this SV is a boolean which indicates whether subs are being single−stepped. Single-stepping is automatically turned on after every step. This is the C variable which corresponds to Perl’s $DB::single variable. See "PL_DBsub".
SV * PL_DBsingle
PL_DBsub
When Perl is run in debugging mode, with the −d switch, this GV contains the SV which holds the name of the sub being debugged. This is the C variable which corresponds to Perl’s $DB::sub variable. See "PL_DBsingle".
GV * PL_DBsub
PL_DBtrace
Trace variable used when Perl is run in debugging mode, with the −d switch. This is the C variable which corresponds to Perl’s $DB::trace variable. See "PL_DBsingle".
SV * PL_DBtrace
PL_dowarn

bool PL_dowarn
PL_last_in_gv
The GV which was last used for a filehandle input operation. ("<FH>")
GV* PL_last_in_gv
PL_ofs_sv

SV* PL_ofs_sv
|
PL_rs |

is_gv_magical
Returns "TRUE" if given the name of a magical GV .
Currently only useful internally when determining if a GV should be created even in rvalue contexts.
"flags" is not used at present but available for future extension to allow selecting particular classes of magical variable.
bool is_gv_magical(char *name, STRLEN len, U32 flags)
start_glob
Function called by "do_readline" to spawn a glob (or do the glob inside perl on VMS ). This code used to be inline, but now perl uses "File::Glob" this glob starter is only used by miniperl during the build process. Moving it away shrinks pp_hot.c; shrinking pp_hot.c helps speed perl up.
PerlIO* start_glob(SV* pattern, IO *io)
CvPADLIST
CV ’s can have CvPADLIST(cv) set to point to an AV .
For these purposes "forms" are a kind-of CV , eval""s are too (except they’re not callable at will and are always thrown away after the eval"" is done executing).
XSUBs don’t have CvPADLIST set − dXSTARG fetches values from PL_curpad, but that is really the callers pad (a slot of which is allocated by every entersub).
The CvPADLIST AV has does not have AvREAL set, so REFCNT of component items is managed "manual" (mostly in pad.c) rather than normal av.c rules. The items in the AV are not SVs as for a normal AV , but other AVs:
0’th Entry of the CvPADLIST is an AV which represents the "names" or rather the "static type information" for lexicals.
The CvDEPTH’th entry of CvPADLIST AV is an AV which is the stack frame at that depth of recursion into the CV . The 0’th slot of a frame AV is an AV which is @_. other entries are storage for variables and op targets.
During compilation: "PL_comppad_name" is set to the names AV . "PL_comppad" is set to the frame AV for the frame CvDEPTH == 1. "PL_curpad" is set to the body of the frame AV (i.e. AvARRAY(PL_comppad)).
During execution, "PL_comppad" and "PL_curpad" refer to the live frame of the currently executing sub.
Iterating over the names AV iterates over all possible pad items. Pad slots that are SVs_PADTMP (targets/GVs/constants) end up having &PL_sv_undef "names" (see pad_alloc()).
Only my/our variable (SVs_PADMY/SVs_PADOUR) slots get valid names. The rest are op targets/GVs/constants which are statically allocated or resolved at compile time. These don’t have names by which they can be looked up from Perl code at run time through eval"" like my/our variables can be. Since they can’t be looked up by "name" but only by their index allocated at compile time (which is usually in PL_op−>op_targ), wasting a name SV for them doesn’t make sense.
The SVs in the names AV have their PV being the name of the variable. NV+1 ..IV inclusive is a range of cop_seq numbers for which the name is valid. For typed lexicals name SV is SVt_PVMG and SvSTASH points at the type. For "our" lexicals, the type is SVt_PVGV, and GvSTASH points at the stash of the associated global (so that duplicate "our" delarations in the same package can be detected). SvCUR is sometimes hijacked to store the generation number during compilation.
If SvFAKE is set on the name SV then slot in the frame AVs are a REFCNT ’ed references to a lexical from "outside". In this case, the name SV does not have a cop_seq range, since it is in scope throughout.
If the ’name’ is ’&’ the corresponding entry in frame AV is a CV representing a possible closure. (SvFAKE and name of ’&’ is not a meaningful combination currently but could become so if "my sub foo {}" is implemented.)
AV * CvPADLIST(CV *cv)
cv_clone
Clone a CV: make a new CV which points to the same code etc, but which has a newly-created pad built by copying the prototype pad and capturing any outer lexicals.
CV* cv_clone(CV* proto)
|
cv_dump |
dump the contents of a CV |
void cv_dump(CV *cv, char *title)
do_dump_pad
Dump the contents of a padlist
void do_dump_pad(I32 level, PerlIO *file, PADLIST *padlist, int full)
intro_my
"Introduce" my variables to visible status.
U32 intro_my()
pad_add_anon
Add an anon code entry to the current compiling pad
PADOFFSET pad_add_anon(SV* sv, OPCODE op_type)
pad_add_name
Create a new name in the current pad at the specified offset. If "typestash" is valid, the name is for a typed lexical; set the name’s stash to that value. If "ourstash" is valid, it’s an our lexical, set the name’s GvSTASH to that value
Also, if the name is @.. or %.., create a new array or hash for that slot
If fake, it means we’re cloning an existing entry
PADOFFSET pad_add_name(char *name, HV* typestash, HV* ourstash, bool clone)
pad_alloc
Allocate a new my or tmp pad entry. For a my, simply push a null SV onto the end of PL_comppad, but for a tmp, scan the pad from PL_padix upwards for a slot which has no name and and no active value.
PADOFFSET pad_alloc(I32 optype, U32 tmptype)
pad_block_start
Update the pad compilation state variables on entry to a new block
void pad_block_start(int full)
pad_check_dup
Check for duplicate
declarations: report any of:
* a my in the current scope with the same name;
* an our (anywhere in the pad) with the same name and the
same stash
as "ourstash" "is_our"
indicates that the name to check is an ’our’
declaration
void pad_check_dup(char* name, bool is_our, HV* ourstash)
pad_findlex
Find a named lexical anywhere in a chain of nested pads. Add fake entries in the inner pads if it’s found in an outer one. innercv is the CV *inside* the chain of outer CVs to be searched. If newoff is non−null, this is a run-time cloning: don’t add fake entries, just find the lexical and add a ref to it at newoff in the current pad.
PADOFFSET pad_findlex(char* name, PADOFFSET newoff, CV* innercv)
pad_findmy
Given a lexical name, try to find its offset, first in the current pad, or failing that, in the pads of any lexically enclosing subs (including the complications introduced by eval). If the name is found in an outer pad, then a fake entry is added to the current pad. Returns the offset in the current pad, or NOT_IN_PAD on failure.
PADOFFSET pad_findmy(char* name)
pad_fixup_inner_anons
For any anon CVs in the pad, change CvOUTSIDE of that CV from old_cv to new_cv if necessary. Needed when a newly-compiled CV has to be moved to a pre-existing CV struct.
void pad_fixup_inner_anons(PADLIST *padlist, CV *old_cv, CV *new_cv)
pad_free
Free the SV at offet po in the current pad.
void pad_free(PADOFFSET po)
pad_leavemy
Cleanup at end of scope during compilation: set the max seq number for lexicals in this scope and warn of any lexicals that never got introduced.
void pad_leavemy()
|
pad_new |
Create a new compiling padlist, saving and updating the various global vars at the same time as creating the pad itself. The following flags can be OR ’ed together: |
padnew_CLONE this pad is for a cloned CV
padnew_SAVE save old globals
padnew_SAVESUB also save extra stuff for start of sub
PADLIST* pad_new(int flags)
pad_push
Push a new pad frame onto the padlist, unless there’s already a pad at this depth, in which case don’t bother creating a new one. If has_args is true, give the new pad an @_ in slot zero.
void pad_push(PADLIST *padlist, int depth, int has_args)
pad_reset
Mark all the current temporaries for reuse
void pad_reset()
pad_setsv
Set the entry at offset po in the current pad to sv. Use the macro PAD_SETSV () rather than calling this function directly.
void pad_setsv(PADOFFSET po, SV* sv)
pad_swipe
Abandon the tmp in the current pad at offset po and replace with a new one.
void pad_swipe(PADOFFSET po, bool refadjust)
pad_tidy
Tidy up a pad after we’ve
finished compiling it:
* remove most stuff from the pads of anonsub prototypes;
* give it a @_;
* mark tmps as such.
void pad_tidy(padtidy_type type)
pad_undef
Free the padlist associated with a CV . If parts of it happen to be current, we null the relevant PL_*pad* global vars so that we don’t have any dangling references left. We also repoint the CvOUTSIDE of any about-to-be-orphaned inner subs to the outer of this cv.
(This function should really be called pad_free, but the name was already taken)
void pad_undef(CV* cv)
|
djSP |
Declare Just "SP". This is actually identical to "dSP", and declares a local copy of perl’s stack pointer, available via the "SP" macro. See "SP". (Available for backward source code compatibility with the old (Perl 5.005) thread model.) |
djSP;
|
LVRET |
True if this op will be the return value of an lvalue subroutine |
report_uninit
Print appropriate "Use of uninitialized variable" warning
void report_uninit()
sv_add_arena
Given a chunk of memory, link it to the head of the list of arenas, and split it into a list of free SVs.
void sv_add_arena(char* ptr, U32 size, U32 flags)
sv_clean_all
Decrement the refcnt of each remaining SV , possibly triggering a cleanup. This function may have to be called multiple times to free SVs which are in complex self-referential hierarchies.
I32 sv_clean_all()
sv_clean_objs
Attempt to destroy all objects not yet freed
void sv_clean_objs()
sv_free_arenas
Deallocate the memory used by all arenas. Note that all the individual SV heads and bodies within the arenas must already have been freed.
void sv_free_arenas()
The autodocumentation system was originally added to the Perl core by Benjamin Stuhl. Documentation is by whoever was kind enough to document their functions.
