Compare against '$' directly rather than using MAP_VARIABLE.
This saves ~10% for find_map_function, which is the top hotspot in
QEMU's no-op build. The build is sped up overall by about 1.5%
more (from 11.1s to 10.95s).
* read.c (find_map_function): Do not compare against singleton sets.
In most cases, find_char_unquote has a single stopchar. In that
case we can look for it using strchr's optimized implementation.
This saves 3.5% on QEMU's noop build (from 11.78s to 11.37s).
* read.c (find_char_unquote): Rename to find_map_unquote. Replace
with an implementation optimized for the case where the stopchar
is a singleton. Adjust all callers.
* variable.h (enum variable_flavor: Add a new flavor for appended
values that shouldn't be expanded.
* variable.c (do_variable_definition): If given this new flavor,
do not expand the value before appending it.
* read.c (eval_makefile): Use this new flavor for MAKEFILE_LIST
* tests/scripts/variables/MFILE_LIST: Test filenames containing '$'.
* makeint.h: Change OUT_OF_MEM() macro to out_of_memory() function.
* output.h, job.h: Move FD_* macros from job.h to output.h.
* output.c (output_write): Write a buffer to an FD directly.
(out_of_memory): Use output_write() to avoid allocating more
memory while writing the error, and call exit() instead of die().
This does mean we can't translate the error string, though.
* misc.c (xmalloc, xcalloc, xrealloc, xstrdup, xstrndup): Call new
out_of_memory() rather than OUT_OF_MEM().
* read.c (parse_file_seq): Ditto.
* read.c (eval_makefile): Set deps->error if we discovered any
error reading makefiles, and set NONEXISTENT_MTIME so we know
it needs to be rebuilt.
* main.c (main): Clean up management of makefile_mtimes.
* tests/scripts/features/include: Add open failure testcases.
* NEWS: Document the change, as a backward-incompatible change.
* main.c (main): Add 'nocomment' to the .FEATURES variable.
* read.c (remove_comments): Skip variable references during remove.
(find_char_unquote): Fix comments for new STOPMAP support.

Create an internal type "floc" and convert all users to that type.
* gnumake.h (gmk_floc): Remove the offset field from this type.
* loadapi.c (gmk_eval): Convert gmk_floc to internal floc.
Move function prototypes into header files and out of .c files.
Use void argument lists for functions that accept no args.
Remove unused macros. Make private functions static. Align
types with printf format characters.
While displaying line numbers, show the relevant line number inside
the recipe not just the first line of the entire recipe.
Sample changes suggested by Brian Vandenberg <phantall@gmail.com>
* gnumake.h (gmk_floc): Add an 'offset' to track the recipe offset.

* job.c (new_job, job_next_command): Update 'offset' based on the
line of the recipe we're expanding or invoking.

Delay the generation of error messages for included files until we
are sure that we can't rebuild that included file.
* dep.h (struct dep): Don't reuse "changed"; make a separate field
to keep "flags". Get rid of dontcare and use the flag.
(struct goaldep): Create a new structure for goal prereqs
that tracks an errno value and the floc where the include happened.
Rework the structures to ensure they are supersets as expected.
In maintainer mode with GCC, use inline to get type checking.
* read.c (eval_makefile): Return a struct goaldep for the new
makefile. Ensure errno is set properly to denote a failure.
(read_all_makefiles): Switch to goaldep and check errno.

goaldep we're building, and the entire chain.
(show_goal_error): Check if the current failure is a consequence
of building an included makefile and if so print an error.
(complain): Call show_goal_error() on rule failure.
* job.c (child_error): Call show_goal_error() on child error.

newline characters.
* Convert all uses of isblank() and isspace() to macros.
* Examine all uses of isblank() (doesn't accept newlines) and
change them wherever possible to ISSPACE() (does accept newlines).

* variable.c (parse_variable_definition): Clean up.
* tests/scripts/functions/foreach: Test settings and errors.
* tests/scripts/functions/call: Rewrite to new-style.
* tests/scripts/misc/bs-nl: Add many more tests for newlines.
* commands.c, commands.h: Use unsigned char for flags.
* dir.c: Use time_t and size_t, and char for a boolean value.
* job.c: Use unsigned and char.

This fixes VMS implicit rules and UNIX style pathname handling.
It also fixes some of the VMS style pathname handling, more work
there will be needed later.
TODO: There are other case insensitive platforms besides VMS.
We need to find out why there is extra VMS code for this. This
indicates either the extra VMS code is not needed, or the case
insensitive support may not be complete on the other case
insensitive platforms.
* default.c: Add missing definitions to default_suffix_rules[] and
default_variables[].
TODO: As it is important that VMS DCL mode definitions must always
be a superset of UNIX definitions, a better way of maintaining the
VMS DCL mode definitions should be devised.
* dir.c (downcase_inplace): Add a reentrant downcase() routine.
Add future support for VMS 8.2+ _USE_STD_STAT macro which will
disable a lot of VMS specific code from compiling.
(dir_file_exists_p): vmsify filename only if directory name has VMS
directory delimiters.
(file_exists_p): Handle both VMS and UNIX directories.
(file_impossible): Handle both VMS and Unix directories. Track
whether a VMS format path is needed for the return value.
* file.c (lookup_file): Check if vmsify is needed; handle UNIX paths.
* implicit.c (pattern_search): Enable UNIX paths.
* read.c (parse_file_seq): Enable UNIX paths.
* remake.c (f_mtime): Fix gpath_search call for VMS paths.
* rule.c (count_implicit_rule): Enable UNIX paths, Fix VMS paths.
* vpath.c (selective_vpath_search): Enable UNIX paths.
* output.c (error, fatal, message): Take an extra argument specifying
how many bytes are used by the formatted arguments.
(get_buffer): New function that allocates the requested buffer size.
Remove msc_vsnprintf(), vfmtconcat(), and fmtconcat() as unneeded.
* makeint.h: Declare various helper macros for generating output.
* *.c: Change all error(), fatal(), message() calls to use the macros,
or pass the extra length argument directly.
Allows deprecated syntax. However we don't guarantee this syntax
will continue to be legal in the future.
Change suggested by David Boyce <david.s.boyce@gmail.com>
We tried to get some efficiency by avoiding a parse_file_seq() for simple
pattern prerequisites, but this also means no wildcard expansion was
happening, so add it back. Add regression tests for wildcards in target and
prerequisite lists.
In various places we were passing flags and characters to compare, then
using complex conditionals to see where to stop in string searches.
Performance numbers reveal that we were spending as much as 23% of our
processing time in these functions, most of it in the comparison lines.
Instead create a character map and use a single bitwise comparison to
determine if this is any one of the stop characters.
Ensure all simple flags are kept in the initial batch of flags.
Do not allow any flags with options in that batch.
If there are only non-simple flags ensure MAKEFLAGS begins with " ".
Don't let MFLAGS start with "- ".
