PATCH: 3.1.5: assoc array memory mucking around tedium



The following very dull patch is my current best guess to keep memory
management of AA's in order.  At this stage it's probably best for
other people (= Bart, presumably) to play with it, even if there's the
odd buglet remaining.  Needless to say, it goes on top of everything
else.  Tomorrow I might update my patched test version for hard core
enthusiasts.

I fixed the bug Bart already spotted, where the tpm copied to wasn't
actually used in save_params().

It keeps copyparam() etc., i.e. it does a deep copy of any special
AA's for restoration after a builtin or function.  I'm still not 100%
convinced of the need for this at the moment, since we haven't yet
agreed on what special AA's are going to do, but this is how to get it
to work: I've added a useless special AA called $testhash for the sole
purpose of making sure it does.  It will have to be deleted for
production code, of course.  It's not a full test, since a real
special AA will have its own get/set methods ($testhash uses the
standard ones), and that could be where the fun starts.

One potentially interesting thing I did do:  since it was necessary to
make
  testhash=(....) func
work to test this (for reasons discussed in my last posting), I added
the simplest possible form of whole hash assignment,
  testhash=(key1 value1 ...)
or
  set -A testhash key1 value1 ...
so the syntax is identical to ordinary arrays, and you need to
predeclare with typeset -A (not for $testhash, since that's special).
However, that's entirely symmetric with everything else about AA's at
the moment.  I don't know what ksh93 thinks about this, I would guess
it converts them mindlessly into ordinary arrays at that point.

By the way, that means the way to copy whole AAs on the command line
is currently
% typesest -A hash
% hash=(${(kv)testhash})
which is entirely logical but maybe not completely obvious.  (It
doesn't use copyparam(), either.)

I've moved some param stuff from hashtable.c to params.c, since I
needed to pass a flag to one of them: there was a memory leak in that
the values of the parameters stored in the AA didn't get unset.

There was a small bug in the paramvals alloc().

gethparam() is now separate from getaparam(): shifting an AA now fails
(silently, as it always did with scalars, which wouldn't be my choice
but I haven't altered it), but zle will still check the values of AA's
when looking through variables for completions, i.e. zle does the same
thing as before.

I changed the test whether to delete a parameter, instead of marking
it unset, to `if (locallevel && locallevel >= pm->level)': the first
part wasn't there before, so they never got deleted, even at top
level.  I hope that >= is still correct, but I think so.  (This is
independent of AA's.)

Warnings about three more hanging else's went over my boredom
threshold, so they were zapped.

Further motivation is mentioned in comments.  The main point is that
when copying an AA using copyparam(), the hash part has to be
assignable as a fully-paid-up, freeable paramtable, so various
additions to get it to work were necessary.  In particular, PM_SPECIAL
flags are removed from lower level `struct param's, since after
copying they aren't any more.  It's up to the sets.hfn() of the
special AA how it deals with that, but it makes sense since sets.hfn()
is in any case going to be passed a non-special hash table when it's
assigned to directly --- which is what it's for.  So if copyparam() is
wrong about this, so is the rest of the code.

I've also discovered I don't understand UNIX memory management.
Memory usage jumps around all over the place, even where I'm pretty
sure there's no leak.
