/*tex

    The \TEX\ system does nearly all of its own memory allocation, so that it can readily be
    transported into environments that do not have automatic facilities for strings, garbage
    collection, etc., and so that it can be in control of what error messages the user receives.
    The dynamic storage requirements of \TEX\ are handled by providing two large arrays called
    |fixmem| and |varmem| in which consecutive blocks of words are used as nodes by the \TEX\
    routines.

    Pointer variables are indices into this array, or into another array called |eqtb| that
    will be explained later. A pointer variable might also be a special flag that lies outside
    the bounds of |mem|, so we allow pointers to assume any |halfword| value. The minimum
    halfword value represents a null pointer. \TEX\ does not assume that |mem[null]| exists.

    Locations in |fixmem| are used for storing one-word records; a conventional |AVAIL| stack is
    used for allocation in this array.

    One can make an argument to switch to standard \CCODE\ allocation but the current approach is
    very efficient in memory usage and performence so we stay with it. On the average memory
    consumption of \TEX| is not that large, definitely not compared to other programs that deal
    with text.

    The big dynamic storage area is named |fixmem| where the smallest location of one|-|word
    memory in use is |fix_mem_min| and the largest location of one|-|word memory in use is
    |fix_mem_max|.

    The |dyn_used| variable keeps track of how much memory is in use. The head of the list of
    available one|-|word nodes is registered in |avail|. The last one-|word node used in |mem|
    is |fix_mem_end|.

    All these variables are packed in the structure |token_memory_state|.

/*tex

    The function |get_avail| returns a pointer (index) to a new one word node whose |link| field is
    |null| (which is just 0). However, \TEX\ will halt if there is no more room left.

    If the available space list is empty, i.e., if |avail = null|, we try first to increase
    |fix_mem_end|. If that cannot be done, i.e., if |fix_mem_end = fix_mem_max|, we try to reallocate
    array |fixmem|. If, that doesn't work, we have to quit. Users can configure \TEX\ to use a lot of
    memory but in some scenarios limitations make sense.

    Remark: we can have a pool of chunks where we get from or just allocate per token (as we have lots
    of them that is slow). But then format loading becomes much slower as we need to recreate the
    linked list. A no go. In todays terms \TEX\ memory usage is low anyway.

    The freed tokens are kept in a linked list. First we check if we can quickly get one of these. If
    that fails, we try to get one from the available pool. If that fails too, we enlarge the pool and
    try again. We keep track of the used number of tokens. We also make sure that the tokens links to
    nothing.

    One problem is of course that tokens can be scattered over memory. We could have some sorter that
    occasionally kicks in but it doesn't pay off. Normally definitions (in the format) are in sequence
    but a normal run \unknown\ it would be interesting to know if this impacts the cache.

    A \TEX\ token is either a character or a control sequence, and it is represented internally in
    one of two ways:

    \startitemize[n]
        \startitem
            A character whose ASCII code number is |c| and whose command code is |m| is represented
            as the number $2^{21}m+c$; the command code is in the range |1 <= m <= 14|.
        \stopitem
        \startitem
            A control sequence whose |eqtb| address is |p| is represented as the number
            |cs_token_flag+p|. Here |cs_token_flag = t =| $2^{25}-1$ is larger than $2^{21}m+c$, yet
            it is small enough that |cs_token_flag + p < max_halfword|; thus, a token fits
            comfortably in a halfword.
        \stopitem
    \stopitemize

    A token |t| represents a |left_brace| command if and only if |t < left_brace_limit|; it
    represents a |right_brace| command if and only if we have |left_brace_limit <= t <
    right_brace_limit|; and it represents a |match| or |end_match| command if and only if
    |match_token <= t <= end_match_token|. The following definitions take care of these
    token-oriented constants and a few others.

    A token list is a singly linked list of one-word nodes in |mem|, where each word contains a token
    and a link. Macro definitions, output routine definitions, marks, |\write| texts, and a few other
    things are remembered by \TEX\ in the form of token lists, usually preceded by a node with a
    reference count in its |token_ref_count| field. The token stored in location |p| is called
    |info(p)|.

    Three special commands appear in the token lists of macro definitions. When |m = match|, it means
    that \TEX\ should scan a parameter for the current macro; when |m = end_match|, it means that
    parameter matching should end and \TEX\ should start reading the macro text; and when |m =
    out_param|, it means that \TEX\ should insert parameter number |c| into the text at this point.

    The enclosing |\char'173| and |\char'175| characters of a macro definition are omitted, but the
    final right brace of an output routine is included at the end of its token list.

    Here is an example macro definition that illustrates these conventions. After \TEX\ processes
    the text:

    \starttyping
    \def\mac a#1#2 \b {#1\-a ##1#2 \#2\}
    \stoptyping

    The definition of |\mac| is represented as a token list containing:

    \starttyping
    (reference count) letter a match # match # spacer \b end_match
    out_param1 \- letter a spacer, mac_param # other_char 1
    out_param2 spacer out_param 2
    \stoptyping

    The procedure |scan_toks| builds such token lists, and |macro_call| does the parameter matching.

    Examples such as |\def \m {\def \m {a} b}| explain why reference counts would be needed even if
    \TEX\ had no |\let| operation: When the token list for |\m| is being read, the redefinition of
    |\m| changes the |eqtb| entry before the token list has been fully consumed, so we dare not
    simply destroy a token list when its control sequence is being redefined.

    If the parameter-matching part of a definition ends with |#{}|, the corresponding token list
    will have |{| just before the |end_match| and also at the very end. The first |{| is used to
    delimit the parameter; the second one keeps the first from disappearing.

    The |print_meaning| subroutine displays |cur_cmd| and |cur_chr| in symbolic form, including the
    expansion of a macro or mark.

*/

void tex_print_meaning(halfword code)
{
    /*tex

    This would make sense but some macro packages don't like it:

    \starttyping
    if (cur_cmd == math_given_cmd) {
        cur_cmd = math_xgiven_cmd ;
    }
    \stoptyping

    Eventually we might just do it that way. We also can have |\meaningonly| that omits the
    |macro:| and arguments.

/*tex

    The procedure |show_token_list|, which prints a symbolic form of the token list that starts at
    a given node |p|, illustrates these conventions. The token list being displayed should not begin
    with a reference count. However, the procedure is intended to be robust, so that if the memory
    links are awry or if |p| is not really a pointer to a token list, nothing catastrophic will
    happen.

    An additional parameter |q| is also given; this parameter is either null or it points to a node
    in the token list where a certain magic computation takes place that will be explained later.
    Basically, |q| is non-null when we are printing the two-line context information at the time of
    an error message; |q| marks the place corresponding to where the second line should begin.

    For example, if |p| points to the node containing the first |a| in the token list above, then
    |show_token_list| will print the string

    \starttyping
    a#1#2 \b ->#1-a ##1#2 #2
    \stoptyping

    and if |q| points to the node containing the second |a|, the magic computation will be performed
    just before the second |a| is printed.

    The generation will stop, and |\ETC.| will be printed, if the length of printing exceeds a given
    limit~|l|. Anomalous entries are printed in the form of control sequences that are not followed
    by a blank space, e.g., |\BAD.|; this cannot be confused with actual control sequences because a
    real control sequence named |BAD| would come out |\BAD |.

    In \LUAMETATEX\ we have some more node types and token types so we also have additional tracing.
    Because there is some more granularity in for instance nodes (subtypes) more detail is reported.

    It made sense to split the |tex_show_token_list| funciton in two, ine specialized for showing 
    the context. That saves some testing and passing arguments.

    In case you are getting bored, here is a slightly less trivial routine: Given a string of
    lowercase letters, like |pt| or |plus| or |width|, the |scan_keyword| routine checks to see
    whether the next tokens of input match this string. The match must be exact, except that
    ppercase letters will match their lowercase counterparts; uppercase equivalents are determined
    by subtracting |"a" - "A"|, rather than using the |uc_code| table, since \TEX\ uses this
    routine only for its own limited set of keywords.

    If a match is found, the characters are effectively removed from the input and |true| is
    returned. Otherwise |false| is returned, and the input is left essentially unchanged (except
    for the fact that some macros may have been expanded, etc.).

    In \LUATEX\ and its follow up we have more keywords and for instance when scanning a box
    specification that is noticeable because the |scan_keyword| function is a little inefficient
    in the sense that when there is no match, it will push back what got read so far. So there is
    token allocation, pushing a level etc involved. Keep in mind that expansion happens here so what
    gets pushing back is not always literally pushing back what we started with.

    In \LUAMETATEX\ we now have a bit different approach. The |scan_mandate_keyword| follows up on
    |scan_character| so we have a two step approach. We could actually pass a list of valid keywords
    but that would make for a complex function with no real benefits.

    The heart of \TEX's input mechanism is the |get_next| procedure, which we shall develop in the
    next few sections of the program. Perhaps we shouldn't actually call it the \quote {heart},
    however, because it really acts as \TEX's eyes and mouth, reading the source files and
    gobbling them up. And it also helps \TEX\ to regurgitate stored token lists that are to be
    processed again.

    The main duty of |get_next| is to input one token and to set |cur_cmd| and |cur_chr| to that
    token's command code and modifier. Furthermore, if the input token is a control sequence, the
    |eqtb| location of that control sequence is stored in |cur_cs|; otherwise |cur_cs| is set to
    zero.

    Underlying this simple description is a certain amount of complexity because of all the cases
    that need to be handled. However, the inner loop of |get_next| is reasonably short and fast.

    When |get_next| is asked to get the next token of a |\read| line, it sets |cur_cmd = cur_chr
    = cur_cs = 0| in the case that no more tokens appear on that line. (There might not be any
    tokens at all, if the |end_line_char| has |ignore| as its catcode.)

    The value of |par_loc| is the |eqtb| address of |\par|. This quantity is needed because a
    blank line of input is supposed to be exactly equivalent to the appearance of |\par|; we must
    set |cur_cs := par_loc| when detecting a blank line.

    Parts |get_next| are executed more often than any other instructions of \TEX. The global
    variable |force_eof| is normally |false|; it is set |true| by an |\endinput| command.
    |luacstrings| is the number of lua print statements waiting to be input, it is changed by
    |lmt_token_call|.

    If the user has set the |pausing| parameter to some positive value, and if nonstop mode has
    not been selected, each line of input is displayed on the terminal and the transcript file,
    followed by |=>|. \TEX\ waits for a response. If the response is simply |carriage_return|,
    the line is accepted as it stands, otherwise the line typed is used instead of the line in the
    file.

    We no longer need the following:

*/

// void firm_up_the_line(void)
// {
//     ilimit = fileio_state.io_last;
// }

/*tex

    The other variant gives less clutter in tracing cache usage when profiling and for some files
    (like the manual) also a bit of a speedup. Splitting the switch which gives 10 times less Bim
    in vallgrind! See the \LUATEX\ source for that code.

    The big switch changes the state if necessary, and |goto switch| if the current character
    should be ignored, or |goto reswitch| if the current character changes to another.

    The n-way switch accomplishes the scanning quickly, assuming that a decent \CCODE\ compiler
    has translated the code. Note that the numeric values for |mid_line|, |skip_blanks|, and
    |new_line| are spaced apart from each other by |max_char_code+1|, so we can add a character's
    command code to the state to get a single number that characterizes both.

    Remark: checking performance indicated that this switch was the cause of many branch prediction
    errors but changing it to:

    \starttyping
    c = istate + cur_cmd;
    if (c == (mid_line_state + letter_cmd) || c == (mid_line_state + other_char_cmd)) {
        return 1;
    } else if (c >= new_line_state) {
        switch (c) {
        }
    } else if (c >= skip_blanks_state) {
        switch (c) {
        }
    } else if (c >= mid_line_state) {
        switch (c) {
        }
    } else {
        istate = mid_line_state;
        return 1;
    }
    \stoptyping

    This gives as many prediction errors. So, we can indeed assume that the compiler does the right
    job, or that there is simply no other way.

    When a line is finished a space is emited. When a character of type |spacer| gets through, its
    character code is changed to |\ =040|. This means that the \ASCII\ codes for tab and space, and
    for the space inserted at the end of a line, will be treated alike when macro parameters are
    being matched. We do this since such characters are indistinguishable on most computer terminal
    displays.

    Control sequence names are scanned only when they appear in some line of a file. Once they have

    |^^df| appears in |buffer[(k - 1) .. (k + 1)]| or |buffer[(k - 1) .. (k + 2)]|, we will store
    the corresponding code in |buffer[k - 1]| and shift the rest of the buffer left two or three

    Since |get_next| is used so frequently in \TEX, it is convenient to define three related
    procedures that do a little more:

    \startitemize
        \startitem
            |get_token| not only sets |cur_cmd| and |cur_chr|, it also sets |cur_tok|, a packed
            halfword version of the current token.
        \stopitem
        \startitem
            |get_x_token|, meaning \quote {get an expanded token}, is like |get_token|, but if the
            current token turns out to be a user-defined control sequence (i.e., a macro call), or
            a conditional, or something like |\topmark| or |\expandafter| or |\csname|, it is
            eliminated from the input by beginning the expansion of the macro or the evaluation of
            the conditional.
        \stopitem
        \startitem
            |x_token| is like |get_x_token| except that it assumes that |get_next| has already been
            called.
        \stopitem
    \stopitemize

    In fact, these three procedures account for almost every use of |get_next|. No new control
    sequences will be defined except during a call of |get_token|, or when |\csname| compresses a
    token list, because |no_new_control_sequence| is always |true| at other times.

    This sets |cur_cmd|, |cur_chr|, |cur_tok|. For convenience we also return the token because in
    some places we store it and then some direct assignment looks a bit nicer.

    The token lists for macros and for other things like |\mark| and |\output| and |\write| are
    produced by a procedure called |scan_toks|.

    Before we get into the details of |scan_toks|, let's consider a much simpler task, that of
    converting the current string into a token list. The |str_toks| function does this; it
    classifies spaces as type |spacer| and everything else as type |other_char|.

    The token list created by |str_toks| begins at |link(temp_token_head)| and ends at the value
    |p| that is returned. If |p = temp_token_head|, the list is empty.

    |lua_str_toks| is almost identical, but it also escapes the three symbols that \LUA\ considers
    special while scanning a literal string.

    At some point I decided to implement the following primitives:

    \starttabulate[|T||T||]
    \NC 0 \NC \type {toksapp}   \NC 1 \NC \type {etoksapp} \NC \NR
    \NC 2 \NC \type {tokspre}   \NC 3 \NC \type {etokspre} \NC \NR
    \NC 4 \NC \type {gtoksapp}  \NC 5 \NC \type {xtoksapp} \NC \NR
    \NC 6 \NC \type {gtokspre}  \NC 7 \NC \type {xtokspre} \NC \NR
    \stoptabulate

    These append and prepend tokens to token lists. In \CONTEXT\ we always had macros doing something
    like that. It was only a few years later that I ran again into an article that Taco and I wrote
    in 1999 in the NTG Maps about an extension to \ETEX\ (called eetex). The first revelation was
    that I had completely forgotten about it, which can be explained by the two decade time-lap. The
    second was that Taco actually added that to the program at that time, so I could have used (parts
    of) that code. Anyway, among the other proposed (and implemented) features were manipulating
    lists and ways to output packed data to the \DVI\ files (numbers packed into 1 upto 4 bytes).
    Maybe some day I'll have a go at lists, although with todays computers there is not that much to
    gain. Also, \CONTEXT\ progressed to different internals so the urge is no longer there. The also
    discussed \SGML\ mode also in no longer that relevant given that we have \LUA.

    If we want to handle macros too we really need to distinguish between toks and macros with
    |cur_chr| above, but not now. We can't expand, and have to use |get_r_token| or so. I don't need
    it anyway.

    The actual token conversion in this function is now functionally equivalent to |show_token_list|,
    except that it always prints the whole token list. Often the result is not that large, for
    instance |\directlua| is seldom large. However, this converter is also used for patterns
    and exceptions where size is mnore an issue. For that reason we used to have three variants,
    one of which (experimentally) used a buffer. At some point, in the manual we were talking of
    millions of allocations but times have changed.

    Macros were used to inline the appending code (in the thre variants), but in the end I decided
    to just merge all into one function, with a bit more overhead because we need to optionally
    skip a macro preamble.

    Values like 512 and 128 also work ok. There is not much to gain in optimization here. We used
    to have 3 mostly overlapping functions, one of which used a buffer. We can probably use a
    larger default buffer size and larger step and only free when we think it's too large.
