You should be able to do make install and have a compiled copy of all of julia installed on a system. The default location should be under /usr/local but should be configurable. It would be nice even for us developers to have both an installed (unbroken) copy of julia and have the development copy still live in the repo directory. That way when the development version is broken, you can still use julia for other stuff.

I feel comfortable that in the 1.0 release, people just build and run out of the source directory as we do now.

To install in /usr/local and have a stable + dev copy may require us to do a fair amount of testing with JULIA_HOME, paths etc.

In my opinion, this can be 2.0.

It just occurred to me that this could be as simple as automatically making a symlink in ~/bin/ otherwise the getting started section may not work since julia directory may not be in the path.

We do have a make install target now, and even ability to create debian packages. Closing this one.

make install needs to be documented. I don't understand how to use it, since it copies files to $(DESTDIR)/usr/share/julia. So what do I set DESTDIR to? Not /, since the first thing it does is rm -fr $(DESTDIR). Looks dangerous...

I reopened this because no one besides Viral knows how this works and I'm not clear that it fully does. The intention of an install target is that you can build, make install, and then delete the build directory and have a standalone installation that continues to work without the source code, containing just the necessary executables and libraries.

It installs a working copy of julia in DESTDIR. DESTDIR is a standard variable used by autoconf and such, and also by the debian build system.

So yes, you can do make install DESTDIR=$HOME/julia, and then delete the sources and get a working julia. This is how the debian package is built also. The issue that Jeff raised is that we need to have a DESTDIR by default so that nothing silly is done.

Can you try it out, and once satisfied, close it?

Sure. We should probably default to /usr/local/julia since that's a standard destination for self-compiled installations (c.f. packaged installs). On Debian it can use /usr/share/julia since you said it didn't like /usr/local/julia for some reason.

Using /usr/share on debian and /usr/local elsewhere is a bit of a kludge, since you have to look for /etc/debian_version and do something different on debian. Also, people may not always have root access. In such cases, we could take the view that DESTDIR has to be explicitly passed.

The default install location when you use ./configure to install software is /usr/local. Defaulting to anything else is surprising and bad. Debian is different because we're distributing a package, which would be expected not to go under /usr/local since it's precompiled.

The Debian build process needs to invoke the install target, the way it is now.

Maybe we are getting to the point where we should start using autotools.

Ugh. Autotools is the worst. What would it provide us with?

A lot of other build tools understand autotools, and everyone understands how to use it, interfaces etc. That would be the only reason to use it.

I guess the only thing it would really give us would be ./configure --prefix=WHATEVER that Debian and people in general would know how to interact with. Ok, well, what's the absolute bare minimum we can get away with using it? I really don't want to have to run my makefiles through automake and turn them into incomprehensible nonsense. Maybe we can have a Make.ac.inc generated from Make.ac.inc.ac that keeps the nonsense sequestered and sets up the variables that allow control of the install process?

ViralBShah added a commit that referenced this issue Jan 18, 2012
Update the Makefile's install target to not use rm, cp, etc. and
instead use the install command.

The default install path is $(DESTDIR)/usr/share/julia. In case
DESTDIR is not specified during make, the installation happens in
/usr/share/julia.

I would have liked this to be /usr/local/julia instead, but the debian
package creation scripts do not like this, and it calls the install
target in the Makefile to create the package. I think /usr/share/julia
is acceptable as a default for the time being.

I believe this sufficiently addresses issue #6 even though the solution
is not completely satisfactory.

As of commit 7dca4d7, we now have an install target that can be used by calling make install DESTDIR=..., and a dist target that creates a tarball.

The install target installs in $(DESTDIR)/usr/share/julia/, whereas the tarball creates all files in ./julia.

I think this just about takes care of everything discussed in this issue.

mkitti pushed a commit to mkitti/julia that referenced this issue Dec 9, 2023
This is part of the work to address JuliaLang#51352 by attempting to allow the
compiler to perform SRAO on persistent data structures like
`PersistentDict` as if they were regular immutable data structures.
These sorts of data structures have very complicated internals (with
lots of mutation, memory sharing, etc.), but a relatively simple
interface. As such, it is unlikely that our compiler will have
sufficient power to optimize this interface by analyzing the
implementation.

We thus need to come up with some other mechanism that gives the
compiler license to perform the requisite optimization. One way would be
to just hardcode `PersistentDict` into the compiler, optimizing it like
any of the other builtin datatypes. However, this is of course very
unsatisfying. At the other end of the spectrum would be something like a
generic rewrite rule system (e-graphs anyone?) that would let the
PersistentDict implementation declare its interface to the compiler and
the compiler would use this for optimization (in a perfect world, the
actual rewrite would then be checked using some sort of formal methods).
I think that would be interesting, but we're very far from even being
able to design something like that (at least in Base - experiments with
external AbstractInterpreters in this direction are encouraged).

This PR tries to come up with a reasonable middle ground, where the
compiler gets some knowledge of the protocol hardcoded without having to
know about the implementation details of the data structure.

The basic ideas is that `Core` provides some magic generic functions
that implementations can extend. Semantically, they are not special.
They dispatch as usual, and implementations are expected to work
properly even in the absence of any compiler optimizations.

However, the compiler is semantically permitted to perform structural
optimization using these magic generic functions. In the concrete case,
this PR introduces the `KeyValue` interface which consists of two
generic functions, `get` and `set`. The core optimization is that the
compiler is allowed to rewrite any occurrence of `get(set(x, k, v), k)`
into `v` without additional legality checks. In particular, the compiler
performs no type checks, conversions, etc. The higher level
implementation code is expected to do all that.

This approach closely matches the general direction we've been taking in
external AbstractInterpreters for embedding additional semantics and
optimization opportunities into Julia code (although we generally use
methods there, rather than full generic functions), so I think we have
some evidence that this sort of approach works reasonably well.

Nevertheless, this is certainly an experiment and the interface is
explicitly declared unstable.

## Current Status

This is fully working and implemented, but the optimization currently
bails on anything but the simplest cases. Filling all those cases in is
not particularly hard, but should be done along with a more invasive
refactoring of SROA, so we should figure out the general direction here
first and then we can finish all that up in a follow-up cleanup.

quinnj pushed a commit that referenced this issue Jan 26, 2024
`@something` eagerly unwraps any `Some` given to it, while keeping the
variable between its arguments the same. This can be an issue if a
previously unpacked value is used as input to `@something`, leading to a
type instability on more than two arguments (e.g. because of a fallback
to `Some(nothing)`). By using different variables for each argument,
type inference has an easier time handling these cases that are isolated
to single branches anyway.

This also adds some comments to the macro, since it's non-obvious what
it does.

Benchmarking the specific case I encountered this in led to a ~2x
performance improvement on multiple machines.

However, this is still a WIP. Before merging, I want to improve EA's
precision a bit and at least fix the test case that is currently marked as
`broken`. I also need to check its impact on compiler performance.

Additionally, I believe this feature is not yet practical.
In particular, there is still significant room for improvement in the
following areas:
- EA's interprocedural capabilities: currently EA is performed ad-hoc
  for limited frames because of latency reasons, which significantly
  reduces its precision in the presence of interprocedural calls.
- Relaxing the `:nothrow` check for finalizer inlining: the current
  algorithm requires `:nothrow`-ness on all paths from the allocation of
  the mutable struct to its last use, which is not practical for
  real-world cases. Even when `:nothrow` cannot be guaranteed, auxiliary
  optimizations such as inserting a `finalize` call after the last use
  might still be possible.

However, this is still a WIP. Before merging, I want to improve EA's
precision a bit and at least fix the test case that is currently marked as
`broken`. I also need to check its impact on compiler performance.

Additionally, I believe this feature is not yet practical.
In particular, there is still significant room for improvement in the
following areas:
- EA's interprocedural capabilities: currently EA is performed ad-hoc
  for limited frames because of latency reasons, which significantly
  reduces its precision in the presence of interprocedural calls.
- Relaxing the `:nothrow` check for finalizer inlining: the current
  algorithm requires `:nothrow`-ness on all paths from the allocation of
  the mutable struct to its last use, which is not practical for
  real-world cases. Even when `:nothrow` cannot be guaranteed, auxiliary
  optimizations such as inserting a `finalize` call after the last use
  might still be possible.

However, this is still a WIP. Before merging, I want to improve EA's
precision a bit and at least fix the test case that is currently marked as
`broken`. I also need to check its impact on compiler performance.

Additionally, I believe this feature is not yet practical.
In particular, there is still significant room for improvement in the
following areas:
- EA's interprocedural capabilities: currently EA is performed ad-hoc
  for limited frames because of latency reasons, which significantly
  reduces its precision in the presence of interprocedural calls.
- Relaxing the `:nothrow` check for finalizer inlining: the current
  algorithm requires `:nothrow`-ness on all paths from the allocation of
  the mutable struct to its last use, which is not practical for
  real-world cases. Even when `:nothrow` cannot be guaranteed, auxiliary
  optimizations such as inserting a `finalize` call after the last use
  might still be possible.

However, this is still a WIP. Before merging, I want to improve EA's
precision a bit and at least fix the test case that is currently marked as
`broken`. I also need to check its impact on compiler performance.

Additionally, I believe this feature is not yet practical.
In particular, there is still significant room for improvement in the
following areas:
- EA's interprocedural capabilities: currently EA is performed ad-hoc
  for limited frames because of latency reasons, which significantly
  reduces its precision in the presence of interprocedural calls.
- Relaxing the `:nothrow` check for finalizer inlining: the current
  algorithm requires `:nothrow`-ness on all paths from the allocation of
  the mutable struct to its last use, which is not practical for
  real-world cases. Even when `:nothrow` cannot be guaranteed, auxiliary
  optimizations such as inserting a `finalize` call after the last use
  might still be possible.

E.g. this allows `finalizer` inlining in the following case:
```julia
mutable struct ForeignBuffer{T}
    const ptr::Ptr{T}
end
const foreign_buffer_finalized = Ref(false)
function foreign_alloc(::Type{T}, length) where T
    ptr = Libc.malloc(sizeof(T) * length)
    ptr = Base.unsafe_convert(Ptr{T}, ptr)
    obj = ForeignBuffer{T}(ptr)
    return finalizer(obj) do obj
        Base.@assume_effects :notaskstate :nothrow
        foreign_buffer_finalized[] = true
        Libc.free(obj.ptr)
    end
end
function f_EA_finalizer(N::Int)
    workspace = foreign_alloc(Float64, N)
    GC.@preserve workspace begin
        (;ptr) = workspace
        Base.@assume_effects :nothrow @noinline println(devnull, "ptr = ", ptr)
    end
end
