[Vm-dev] Latest VM \tears\ screen

[Tim Felgentreff]

Hi Eliot,

cool that you're fixing that, we've had hacks working around this bug in RSqueakVM for ages, because we couldn't quite figure out what the real fix would look like.

Best,
Tim

See the changes in my latest commit. I am trying to fix a serious bug in copyBits, namely reading the word past the last word in a bitmap in certain cases (ie a case where preload is true but the trailing word is not used). I know my changes are correct for deep bitmaps but they’re clearly broken for depths 8 and less. Please post test cases here. I need to look using the simulator to try and figure things out. I am currently looking at the #test2BitReversed, #test4BitReversed and #test8BitReversed cases to try and figure out what’s wrong. > > Thanks, > Alistair > > > $ sqlinux.201809301616/squeak --version > 5.0-201809301616 Sun Sep 30 16:24:40 UTC 2018 gcc 4.8 [Production > Spur 64-bit VM] > CoInterpreter VMMaker.oscog-eem.2437 uuid: > 0e97c106-dd0b-437b-b1aa-e15257288c3f Sep 30 2018 > StackToRegisterMappingCogit VMMaker.oscog-eem.2432 uuid: > 7b14d114-0e04-4e46-b8a7-4b5e6d87f5fe Sep 30 2018 > VM: 201809301616 https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm.git > Date: Sun Sep 30 09:16:55 2018 CommitHash: 057c592 > Plugins: 201809301616 https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm.git > Linux travis-job-0b521285-dae6-496e-a96c-06870f88a3a5 > 4.4.0-101-generic #124~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Nov 10 19:05:36 UTC 2017 > x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux > plugin path: sqlinux.201809301616/lib/squeak/5.0-201809301616 > [default: /home/alistair/vmmaker/opensmalltalk-vm/image20181001/sqlinux.201809301616/lib/squeak/5.0-201809301616/] > > OS: Ubuntu 16.04 >
