- The facility for dumping a running Lisp image to disk gets confused
- when run without the PURIFY option, and creates an unnecessarily large

- GC, so that thereafter memory usage can never be reduced below that
- level.

- (As of 0.8.7.3 it's likely that the latter half of this bug is fixed.

In sbcl-0.6.11.41 (and in all earlier SBCL, and in CMU
CL), out-of-line structure slot setters are horribly inefficient
classes). This means that at present erroneous attempts to use
WITH-SLOTS and the like on classes with metaclass STRUCTURE-CLASS
won't get the corresponding STYLE-WARNING.
+
+ [much later, in 2006-08] in fact it's no longer erroneous to use

+ STRUCTURE-CLASS in the class definition gives a whole bunch of

- In sbcl.0.7.7:
-
- * (values-type-union (specifier-type '(function (base-char)))
- (specifier-type '(function (integer))))
-
- #<FUN-TYPE (FUNCTION (BASE-CHAR) *)>
-
- It causes insertion of wrong type assertions into generated
- code. E.g.
-
- (defun foo (x s)
- (let ((f (etypecase x
- (character #'write-char)
- (integer #'write-byte))))
- (funcall f x s)
- (etypecase x
- (character (write-char x s))
- (integer (write-byte x s)))))
-
- Then (FOO #\1 *STANDARD-OUTPUT*) signals type error.
-
- (In 0.7.9.1 the result type is (FUNCTION * *), so Python does not
- produce invalid code, but type checking is not accurate.)

- When the runtime is compiled with -O3 on certain PPC/Linux machines, a

- the runtime is no longer compiled with -O3 on PPC/Linux, but it is likely
- that this merely obscures, not solves, the underlying problem; as and when

- According to ANSI CL 7.6.2, class objects are valid specializer names,
- and "Parameter specializer names are used in macros intended as the
- user-level interface (defmethod)". DEFMETHOD's syntax section doesn't
- mention this possibility in the BNF for parameter-specializer-name;
- however, this appears to be an editorial omission, since the CLHS
- mentions issue CLASS-OBJECT-SPECIALIZER:AFFIRM as being approved
- by X3J13. SBCL doesn't support it:

- (defmethod goo ((x #.(find-class 'foo))) x)
- Expected: #<STANDARD-METHOD GOO (#<STANDARD-CLASS FOO>)>

-366: cannot define two generic functions with user-defined class
- (reported by Bruno Haible)
- it is possible to define one generic function class and an instance
- of it. But attempting to do the same thing again, in the same session,
- leads to a "Control stack exhausted" error. Test case:
- (defclass my-generic-function-1 (standard-generic-function)
- ()
- (:metaclass sb-pcl:funcallable-standard-class))
- (defgeneric testgf-1 (x) (:generic-function-class my-generic-function-1)

- bug 367a: Compile and load the file. No TYPE-ERROR is signalled at
- run time (in the (S367-G367 Y) form of FROB, when Y is NIL
- instead of an instance of S367). Instead (on x86/Linux at least)
- we end up with a segfault.
- bug 367b: Comment out the (DECLAIM (FTYPE ... R367)), and compile
- the file. The compiler fails with TYPE-ERROR at compile time.

-368: miscompiled OR (perhaps related to bug 367)
- Trying to relax type declarations to find a workaround for bug 367,
- it turns out that even when the return type isn't declared (or
- declared to be T, anyway) the system remains confused about type
- inference in code similar to that for bug 367:

- 2. From the only call of KEYWORDP the type of its argument is

377: Memory fault error reporting
On those architectures where :C-STACK-IS-CONTROL-STACK is in
*FEATURES*, we handle SIG_MEMORY_FAULT (SEGV or BUS) on an altstack,
A simpler example:
(compile nil '(lambda (x) (the (not (eql #\a)) x)))
+
+ (partially fixed in 0.9.3.1, but a better representation for these
+ types is needed.)

+
+386: SunOS/x86 stack exhaustion handling broken
+ According to <http://alfa.s145.xrea.com/sbcl/solaris-x86.html>, the
+ stack exhaustion checking (implemented with a write-protected guard
+ page) does not work on SunOS/x86.

+389:
+ (reported several times on sbcl-devel, by Rick Taube, Brian Rowe and
+ others)
+
+ ROUND-NUMERIC-BOUND assumes that float types always have a FORMAT
+ specifying whether they're SINGLE or DOUBLE. This is true for types
+ computed by the type system itself, but the compiler type derivation
+ short-circuits this and constructs non-canonical types. A temporary
+ fix was made to ROUND-NUMERIC-BOUND for the sbcl-0.9.6 release, but
+ the right fix is to remove the abstraction violation in the
+ compiler's type deriver.
+
+393: Wrong error from methodless generic function
+ (DEFGENERIC FOO (X))
+ (FOO 1 2)
+ gives NO-APPLICABLE-METHOD rather than an argument count error.
+
+395: Unicode and streams
+ One of the remaining problems in SBCL's Unicode support is the lack
+ of generality in certain streams.
+ a. FILL-POINTER-STREAMs: SBCL refuses to write (e.g. using FORMAT)
+ to streams made from strings that aren't character strings with
+ fill-pointers:
+ (let ((v (make-array 5 :fill-pointer 0 :element-type 'standard-char)))
+ (format v "foo")
+ v)
+ should return a non-simple base string containing "foo" but
+ instead errors.

+ (defun bar (z)
+ (foo z)
+ (values x)))
+ (bar 1) => 11, should be 4.

+397: SLEEP accuracy
+ The more interrupts arrive the less accurate SLEEP's timing gets.
+ (time (sb-thread:terminate-thread
+ (prog1 (sb-thread:make-thread (lambda ()
+ (loop
+ (princ #\!)
+ (force-output)
+ (sb-ext:gc))))
+ (sleep 1))))
+
+398: GC-unsafe SB-ALIEN string deporting
+ Translating a Lisp string to an alien string by taking a SAP to it
+ as done by the :DEPORT-GEN methods for C-STRING and UTF8-STRING
+ is not safe, since the Lisp string can move. For example the
+ following code will fail quickly on both cheneygc and pre-0.9.8.19
+ GENCGC:
+
+ (setf (bytes-consed-between-gcs) 4096)
+ (define-alien-routine "strcmp" int (s1 c-string) (s2 c-string))
+
+ (loop
+ (let ((string "hello, world"))
+ (assert (zerop (strcmp string string)))))
+
+ (This will appear to work on post-0.9.8.19 GENCGC, since
+ the GC no longer zeroes memory immediately after releasing
+ it after a minor GC. Either enabling the READ_PROTECT_FREE_PAGES
+ #define in gencgc.c or modifying the example so that a major
+ GC will occasionally be triggered would unmask the bug.)
+
+ On cheneygc the only solution would seem to be allocating some alien
+ memory, copying the data over, and arranging that it's freed once we
+ return. For GENCGC we could instead try to arrange that the string
+ from which the SAP is taken is always pinned.
+
+ For some more details see comments for (define-alien-type-method
+ (c-string :deport-gen) ...) in host-c-call.lisp.

+403: FORMAT/PPRINT-LOGICAL-BLOCK of CONDITIONs ignoring *PRINT-CIRCLE*
+ In sbcl-0.9.13.34,
+ (defparameter *c*
+ (make-condition 'simple-error
+ :format-control "ow... ~S"
+ :format-arguments '(#1=(#1#))))
+ (setf *print-circle* t *print-level* 4)
+ (format nil "~@<~A~:@>" *c*)
+ gives
+ "ow... (((#)))"
+ where I (WHN) believe the correct result is "ow... #1=(#1#)",
+ like the result from (PRINC-TO-STRING *C*). The question of
+ what the correct result is is complicated by the hairy text in
+ the Hyperspec "22.3.5.2 Tilde Less-Than-Sign: Logical Block",
+ Other than the difference in its argument, ~@<...~:> is
+ exactly the same as ~<...~:> except that circularity detection
+ is not applied if ~@<...~:> is encountered at top level in a
+ format string.
+ But because the odd behavior happens even without the at-sign,
+ (format nil "~<~A~:@>" (list *c*)) ; => "ow... (((#)))"
+ and because something seemingly similar can happen even in
+ PPRINT-LOGICAL-BLOCK invoked directly without FORMAT,
+ (pprint-logical-block (*standard-output* '(some nonempty list))
+ (format *standard-output* "~A" '#1=(#1#)))
+ (which prints "(((#)))" to *STANDARD-OUTPUT*), I don't think
+ that the 22.3.5.2 trickiness is fundamental to the problem.
+
+ My guess is that the problem is related to the logic around the MODE
+ argument to CHECK-FOR-CIRCULARITY, but I haven't reverse-engineered
+ enough of the intended meaning of the different MODE values to be
+ confident of this.

+404: nonstandard DWIMness in LOOP with unportably-ordered clauses
+ In sbcl-0.9.13, the code

+ for length = (length stack)
+ while (plusp length)
+ for element = (vector-pop stack)
+ collect element)
+ compiles without error or warning and returns (T T). Unfortunately,
+ it is inconsistent with the ANSI definition of the LOOP macro,
+ because it mixes up VARIABLE-CLAUSEs with MAIN-CLAUSEs. Furthermore,
+ SBCL's interpretation of the intended meaning is only one possible,
+ unportable interpretation of the noncompliant code; in CLISP 2.33.2,
+ the code compiles with a warning
+ LOOP: FOR clauses should occur before the loop's main body
+ and then fails at runtime with
+ VECTOR-POP: #() has length zero
+ perhaps because CLISP has shuffled the clauses into an
+ ANSI-compliant order before proceeding.
