document sv_gets() internals
sv_gets() contains some very dense code. while trying to rewrite I

the comments. So here they are. Hope this saves someone some heartache

Yves Orton [Sun, 11 May 2014 10:37:33 +0000 (12:37 +0200)]
Implement "max waste" thresholds to avoid problems with COW and deliberately overallocated pvs
COW does not play nicely with "preallocate" algorithms.
More specifically code like sv_gets() wants to preallocate a large
buffer into $_ for performance reasons.
Prior to COW this was just fine. When someone assigned $_ to a
less volatile variable only the used portion of the buffer was copied,
and the extended buffer would be reused by sv_gets() and all was well.
With COW however this process is foiled. The preallocated buffer
get shared, and then when $_ is updated the buffer is dropped from $_,
leaving the other SV holding ownership of the overallocated buffer,
and causing sv_gets() to allocate a new buffer entirely. This process
would then repeat consuming time and lots of memory.
This patch introduces a "wastage" check to COW. When decided if we
should COW a string we look at the ratio and difference of SvCUR(sv)
and SvLEN(sv), which represent the "actual string length" and the
"allocated string length". When the difference exceeds a hard threshold,
or when the ration exceeds a designated factor then we do not COW.
This means that strings with large overallocations are not COWed.
Exactly how this works out in practice, where SvGROW() *always*
overallocates, is an open question.
See: https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=121796
This patch also slightly tweaks SvGROW() not to do roundup on the first
allocation of the pv. Odds are good that the initial request realy does
want exactly what they expected. (SvGROW contrary to what the name
suggests is used for bother *extended* the size of a pv, and
initializing it the first time.)

c1181d2b skipped the free if PL_veto_cleanup is set

ExtUtils-Install/t/Install.t: better -w tests
I recently added some tests to Install.t to check that files weren't
writeable. I used "-w $file", which gives a false positive if run as
root. So this commit changes the test to do a stat then test (mode & 0200);
hopefully that emulation on non-POSIX platforms is good enough for this to
be a valid test. perlport makes no mention of what stat->mode contains
on non-POSIX platforms.
(Chris fixed this this with
84d7dacc0cf1f by skipping the test if running
as root, but the current commit is more robust, in that is still tests for
correctness under root.)
