[Perl/perl5] 5314ff: Fix compiling without LC_ALL defined
Branch: refs/heads/blead Home: https://github.com/Perl/perl5 Commit: 5314ff9fe3c55bb32eb80a46176db11446e432f3 https://github.com/Perl/perl5/commit/5314ff9fe3c55bb32eb80a46176db11446e432f3 Author: Karl Williamson Date: 2023-11-01 (Wed, 01 Nov 2023) Changed paths: M embed.fnc M embed.h M locale.c M proto.h Log Message: --- Fix compiling without LC_ALL defined It is legal to have a platform without the aggregate LC_ALL locale category defined, though I don't know of any such. Recent changes broke compilation for that case. This commit restores it. (To check this, one has to munge perl.h slightly to force it to be #undef, and I hadn't tried that recently)
[Perl/perl5] e2934f: Test simultaneous threads running different locales
Branch: refs/heads/blead Home: https://github.com/Perl/perl5 Commit: e2934ffc337ae33a6c1efacaec4911531cf3e424 https://github.com/Perl/perl5/commit/e2934ffc337ae33a6c1efacaec4911531cf3e424 Author: Karl Williamson Date: 2023-11-01 (Wed, 01 Nov 2023) Changed paths: M lib/locale_threads.t Log Message: --- Test simultaneous threads running different locales This adds an elaborate test to lib/locale_threads.t, designed to stress test perl's (and the platform's) ability to properly handle multiple threads, each running with a different combination of locales. Locales originally were global to the whole process, but POSIX 2008 and Windows (even earlier) introduced per-thread locales. This test is skipped on platforms that don't offer either of these. But otherwise it verifies that they actually work and that perl correctly uses them. Each thread in the test runs a tight loop of calling locale-sensitive operations, and checking that their result is as expected (which is computed before starting the thread). This checks that other threads aren't interfering with this one. Each thread is started with LC_CTYPE in locale A, LC_NUMERIC in locale B, etc for each category on the system for which perl has an operation that uses that category. Most platforms do not properly handle such a situation, returning mojibake if, for example, LC_CTYPE is in an incompatible locale with LC_TIME. perl takes extra actions to make this work, and the test verifies that. (In reading code, it appears that some recent libc's do handle this without a perl workaround being needed, but that is a minority capability, and I have chosen to leave the workaround in on those platforms, due in part to not being able to write a Configure probe that reliably finds more than surface-level failures.) Every so many iterations, each thread will shift to using a different set of disparate locales, and then check that the new expected values are the ones now returned. Doing this in the tight loop should surface races that would arise when changing locales, and verify that each thread is independent of the others. If two locales are almost the same, it could be that a thread getting its expected result was in fact just getting an identical result from another thread. To minimize this, the test goes to some lengths to try to find locales as different from each other as possible to run simultaneously. Experience with smoking this led me to choose 15 threads with 100 iterations each, as higher values lead to it taking too long, and running out of memory on some of our smoke farm boxes. On my Linux box, I've used 500 threads and 1000 iterations, which takes a long time. On my Windows box, something like 100 threads and 1000 iterations. And on some other boxes I have access to, something like 50 threads and 1000 iterations. I started writing this test a couple of years ago, and only now, after a couple hundred locale-related commits to blead, is it ready itself to be put into blead without generating failures. I also have submitted tickets against some platforms. Just this week, two such tickets were resolved, https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=269375 and https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=255646 I did not file tickets on platforms where I thought they would be ignored, so no tickets against Windows nor Darwin, but workarounds remain for them in perl.
