We need to cut down on symbol imports as much as possible; the whole system
starts dragging if we are importing thousands of symbols into a single
package.
* src/current/include/preproc/symtable.xsl (preproc:symtable)[lv:rate,c:*]: Mark
as local if `@preproc:generated`.
* src/current/include/preproc/template.xsl (preproc:macros)[lv:inline-template]:
Mark generated templates as such.
* src/symtable/symbols.xsl (preproc:symtable)[lv:template]: Mark as local if
`@preproc:generated'.
These used to be automatically added via @keep.
* src/current/compiler/linker.xsl (l:depgen): Include meta symbols.
* src/symtable/symbols.xsl (lv:meta): @pollute instead of @keep.
The `preproc:param-dim' template must remain for now, as it is used by
others.
* src/current/include/preproc/symtable.xsl
(preproc:symtable)[lv:param]: Extracted template.
* src/symtable/symbols.xsl
(preproc:symtable)[lv:param]: Added template.
* test/symtable/symbols.xsl
(lv:param): Scenario added.
It's important that others understand the system before I keep adding to
the mystery. This is at least a good start.
It also obviates certain awkward design issues that have evolved over
time and need addressing. Note that it also mentions that `keep' is
marked for removal---this is the situation that prompted this
documentation; changes will be made to work toward its removal to
improve the terrible linker performance when given many thousands of
symbols defined in over 500 separate packages.
* src/symtable.xsl: Add menu for symbols.
* src/symtable/symbols.xsl: Added.
