Greetings! I've been working on the interface to external shared C
libraries. This can be quite important if one, say, ever wanted top
floating performance from within GCL, among many other possibilities.
I've recently posted the following to the axiom mailing list. I'd
really like to get your thoughts about what might be useful to a
typical user. I'm aiming for an interface like the following:
(defdlcfun name lib c-return-string c-arg-list)
gives:
1) a symbol in package "LIB" with value equal to the dlopen handle of
the library, and which denotes a new package
2) a symbol within this package with value equal to the current
external shared library address of the C function
3) an function which converts lisp objects to the C types
(like defentry), and calls the variable address, reboxing the
return result.
4) a compiled inline call through a local C function pointer which is
reset on each image execution automatically.
All of the above being automatically persistent across image saves.
To be really useful, we need to extend the convertible C types from
the conventional char,float,double,int. I'd like float complex and
double complex to support unboxed complex arithmetic on the C stack,
as well as to support these via array types. But in any case we also
need typed pointers, like char*, float*, etc.
Examples are below. Your thoughts on making this world-class and as
effortless as possible are most aprpeciated.
=============================================================================
I've been working on a better interface to external shared C
libraries for GCL. The issue, as you may recall, is that GCL-compiled
code referring to external shared function addresses are statically
relocated to the value of said address at the time the .o file is
loaded. If one then saves the image and re-executes, the function is
likely in a different place.
I've figured out a persistent solution using dlopen. Still working on
the precise interface, but you can see the idea here. Comments are
marked with ***:

Suggestions most welcome. One thing I'm not planning at the moment is
"deregistering" dlopened libraries, but this is open to consultation.

Hopefully, the above will be useful. It appears that libdl is quite
portable, but may require cygwin.

Thoughts most appreciated. The above was primarily motivated to
obsolete the plt.c mechanism, which appears fragile and is currently
broken on mips for example. But the implications for lisp extensions
appear quite attractive.
