/* This file contains 'hot' pp ("push/pop") functions that

 * expects to find its arguments on the stack, and usually pushes its
 * results onto the stack, hence the 'pp' terminology. Each OP structure
 * contains a pointer to the relevant pp_foo() function.
 *
 * By 'hot', we mean common ops whose execution speed is critical.
 * By gathering them together into a single file, we encourage
 * CPU cache hits on hot code. Also it could be taken as a warning not to
 * change any code in this file unless you're sure it won't affect

    /* We must see if we can perform the addition with integers if possible,

       If either argument hasn't had a numeric conversion yet attempt to get
       the IV. It's important to do this now, rather than just assuming that
       it's not IOK as a PV of "9223372036854775806" may not take well to NV
       addition, and an SV which is NOK, NV=6.0 ought to be coerced to
       integer in case the second argument is IV=9223372036854775806
       We can (now) rely on sv_2iv to do the right thing, only setting the
       public IOK flag if the value in the NV (or PV) slot is truly integer.

       A side effect is that this also aggressively prefers integer maths over
       fp maths for integer values.

       How to detect overflow?

       C 99 section 6.2.6.1 says

       The range of nonnegative values of a signed integer type is a subrange
       of the corresponding unsigned integer type, and the representation of
       the same value in each type is the same. A computation involving
       unsigned operands can never overflow, because a result that cannot be
       represented by the resulting unsigned integer type is reduced modulo
       the number that is one greater than the largest value that can be
       represented by the resulting type.

       (the 9th paragraph)

       which I read as "unsigned ints wrap."

       signed integer overflow seems to be classed as "exception condition"

       If an exceptional condition occurs during the evaluation of an
       expression (that is, if the result is not mathematically defined or not
       in the range of representable values for its type), the behavior is
       undefined.

       (6.5, the 5th paragraph)

       I had assumed that on 2s complement machines signed arithmetic would
       wrap, hence coded pp_add and pp_subtract on the assumption that
       everything perl builds on would be happy.  After much wailing and
       gnashing of teeth it would seem that irix64 knows its ANSI spec well,
       knows that it doesn't need to, and doesn't.  Bah.  Anyway, the all-
       unsigned code below is actually shorter than the old code. :-)

/*
A description of how taint works in pattern matching and substitution.

This is all conditional on NO_TAINT_SUPPORT not being defined. Under
NO_TAINT_SUPPORT, taint-related operations should become no-ops.

While the pattern is being assembled/concatenated and then compiled,
PL_tainted will get set (via TAINT_set) if any component of the pattern
is tainted, e.g. /.*$tainted/.  At the end of pattern compilation,
the RXf_TAINTED flag is set on the pattern if PL_tainted is set (via
TAINT_get).  It will also be set if any component of the pattern matches
based on locale-dependent behavior.

When the pattern is copied, e.g. $r = qr/..../, the SV holding the ref to
the pattern is marked as tainted. This means that subsequent usage, such
as /x$r/, will set PL_tainted using TAINT_set, and thus RXf_TAINTED,
on the new pattern too.

RXf_TAINTED_SEEN is used post-execution by the get magic code
of $1 et al to indicate whether the returned value should be tainted.
It is the responsibility of the caller of the pattern (i.e. pp_match,
pp_subst etc) to set this flag for any other circumstances where $1 needs
to be tainted.

The taint behaviour of pp_subst (and pp_substcont) is quite complex.

There are three possible sources of taint
    * the source string
    * the pattern (both compile- and run-time, RXf_TAINTED / RXf_TAINTED_SEEN)
    * the replacement string (or expression under /e)
    
There are four destinations of taint and they are affected by the sources
according to the rules below:

    * the return value (not including /r):
	tainted by the source string and pattern, but only for the
	number-of-iterations case; boolean returns aren't tainted;
    * the modified string (or modified copy under /r):
	tainted by the source string, pattern, and replacement strings;
    * $1 et al:
	tainted by the pattern, and under 'use re "taint"', by the source
	string too;
    * PL_taint - i.e. whether subsequent code (e.g. in a /e block) is tainted:
	should always be unset before executing subsequent code.

The overall action of pp_subst is:

    * at the start, set bits in rxtainted indicating the taint status of
	the various sources.

    * After each pattern execution, update the SUBST_TAINT_PAT bit in
	rxtainted if RXf_TAINTED_SEEN has been set, to indicate that the
	pattern has subsequently become tainted via locale ops.

    * If control is being passed to pp_substcont to execute a /e block,
	save rxtainted in the CXt_SUBST block, for future use by
	pp_substcont.

    * Whenever control is being returned to perl code (either by falling
	off the "end" of pp_subst/pp_substcont, or by entering a /e block),
	use the flag bits in rxtainted to make all the appropriate types of
	destination taint visible; e.g. set RXf_TAINTED_SEEN so that $1
	et al will appear tainted.

pp_match is just a simpler version of the above.
