David T. Lewis uploaded a new version of VMMaker to project VM Maker Inbox: http://source.squeak.org/VMMakerInbox/VMMaker-dtl.401.mcz
==================== Summary ====================
Name: VMMaker-dtl.401 Author: dtl Time: 4 May 2019, 9:22:54.649 am UUID: c8ffe0ea-c3b8-4f49-8343-df16ac0656ea Ancestors: VMMaker-dtl.400
VMMaker 4.16.6 Primitive support for snapshot objects, answering object memory and header as in-image objects. Instead of disk-based snapshot file. Currently implemented in ContextInterpreter.
"ImageSnapshot new"
The primitives are: #primitiveInterpreterStateSnapshot - snapshot the header information #primitiveMemoryCopy - snapshot the memory #primitiveMemorySnapshotBytesWithHeader - snapshot memory bytes and header #primitiveMemorySnapshotWithHeader - snapshot memory bitmap and header
mage side support package ImageFormat in http://source.squeak.org/VMMaker: ImageFileHeader fromValues: ImageFileHeader primInterpreterStateSnapshot. ImageFileHeader primMemoryCopy.
Image side support from package ImageSnapshot in http://www.squeaksource.com/ImageSnapshot: ImageSnapshot basicNew getSnapshot. ImageBitmapSnapshot basicNew getSnapshot.
Snapshot to disk, equivalent to normal snapshot: ImageSnapshot new saveAs: 'newimage.image'

!ContextInterpreter commentStamp: '<historical>' prior: 0! This class is a complete implementation of the Smalltalk-80 virtual machine, derived originally from the Blue Book specification but quite different in some areas.
It has been modernized with 32-bit pointers, better management of Contexts, and attention to variable use that allows the CCodeGenerator (qv) to keep, eg, the instruction pointer and stack pointer in registers as well as keeping most simple variables in a global array that seems to improve performance for most platforms.
In addition to SmallInteger arithmetic and Floats, it supports logic on 32-bit PositiveLargeIntegers, thus allowing it to simulate itself much more effectively than would otherwise be the case.
NOTE: Here follows a list of things to be borne in mind when working on this code, or when making changes for the future.
1. There are a number of things that should be done the next time we plan to release a copletely incompatible image format. These include unifying the instanceSize field of the class format word -- see instantiateClass:indexableSize:, and unifying the bits of the method primitive index (if we decide we need more than 512, after all) -- see primitiveIndexOf:. Also, contexts should be given a special format code (see next item).
2. There are several fast checks for contexts (see isContextHeader: and isMethodContextHeader:) which will fail if the compact class indices of BlockContext or MethodContext change. This is necessary because the oops may change during a compaction when the oops are being adjusted. It's important to be aware of this when writing a new image using the systemTracer. A better solution would be to reserve one of the format codes for Contexts only.
3. We have made normal files tolerant to size and positions up to 32 bits. This has not been done for async files, since they are still experimental. The code in size, at: and at:put: should work with sizes and indices up to 31 bits, although I have not tested it (di 12/98); it might or might not work with 32-bit sizes.
4. Note that 0 is used in a couple of places as an impossible oop. This should be changed to a constant that really is impossible (or perhaps there is code somewhere that guarantees it --if so it should be put in this comment). The places include the method cache and the at cache. !

ContextInterpreter is the Squeak interpreter VM as originally implemented by Dan Ingalls.
StackInterpreter is the stack mapped interpreter by Eliot Miranda, which provides the basis for later Cog and Spur VMs.!

!StackInterpreter commentStamp: '<historical>' prior: 0! This class is a complete implementation of the Smalltalk-80 virtual machine, derived originally from the Blue Book specification but quite different in some areas. This VM supports Closures but *not* old-style BlockContexts.
It has been modernized with 32-bit pointers, better management of Contexts (see next item), and attention to variable use that allows the CCodeGenerator (qv) to keep, eg, the instruction pointer and stack pointer in registers as well as keeping most simple variables in a global array that seems to improve performance for most platforms.
The VM does not use Contexts directly. Instead Contexts serve as proxies for a more conventional stack format that is invisible to the image. There is considerable explanation at http://www.mirandabanda.org/cogblog/2009/01/14/under-cover-contexts-and-the-.... The VM maintains a fixed-size stack zone divided into pages, each page being capable of holding several method/block activations. A send establishes a new frame in the current stack page, a return returns to the previous frame. This eliminates allocation/deallocation of contexts and the moving of receiver and arguments from caller to callee on each send/return. Contexts are created lazily when an activation needs a context (creating a block, explicit use of thisContext, access to sender when sender is a frame, or linking of stack pages together). Contexts are either conventional and heap-resident ("single") or "married" and serve as proxies for their corresponding frame or "widowed", meaning that their spouse f rame has been returned from (died). A married context is specially marked (more details in the code) and refers to its frame. Likewise a married frame is specially marked and refers to its context.
In addition to SmallInteger arithmetic and Floats, the VM supports logic on 32-bit PositiveLargeIntegers, thus allowing it to simulate itself much more effectively than would otherwise be the case.
NOTE: Here follows a list of things to be borne in mind when working on this code, or when making changes for the future.
1. There are a number of things that should be done the next time we plan to release a completely incompatible image format. These include unifying the instanceSize field of the class format word -- see instantiateClass:indexableSize:, and unifying the bits of the method primitive index (if we decide we need more than 512, after all) -- see primitiveIndexOf:. Also, contexts should be given a special format code (see next item).
2. There are several fast checks for contexts (see isContextHeader: and isMethodContextHeader:) which will fail if the compact class indices of BlockContext or MethodContext change. This is necessary because the oops may change during a compaction when the oops are being adjusted. It's important to be aware of this when writing a new image using the SystemTracer. A better solution would be to reserve one of the format codes for Contexts only.
3. We have made normal files tolerant to size and positions up to 32 bits. This has not been done for async files, since they are still experimental. The code in size, at: and at:put: should work with sizes and indices up to 31 bits, although I have not tested it (di 12/98); it might or might not work with 32-bit sizes.
4. Note that 0 is used in a couple of places as an impossible oop. This should be changed to a constant that really is impossible (or perhaps there is code somewhere that guarantees it --if so it should be put in this comment). The places include the method cache and the at cache.
5. Moving to a 2 bit immediate tag and having immediate Characters is a good choice for Unicode and the JIT
6. If Eliot Miranda's 2 word header scheme is acceptable in terms of footprint (we estimate about a 10% increase in image size with about 35 reclaimed by better representation of CompiledMethod - loss of MethodProperties) then the in-line cache for the JIT is simplified, class access is faster and header access is the same in 32-bit and full 64-bit images.!
