Hello!
Commit 37a5970c19ca7ad2b5de2f667748c840c199f878 changes the VM engine
such that the jump table address is kept in a register, at least on
x86_64.
Using GCC 4.6.0 on x86_64, before the change, the dispatch code looked
like this:
movzbl 0x0(%rbp),%edx;; %edx <- *IP
lea0x0(%r
Hello,
Attached is a document describing the release process as I’ve done it
for 2.0. The goal is to make it possible for someone else to take over
this nice job ;-), even temporarily, and perhaps to discuss things.
I can add it to the repo if you think it’s a good idea.
Comments welcome.
Ludo
