Hi, the goal of this change is allow building Souffle without
libffi
and still provide some user-defined functors capabilities in interpreted mode.When
SOUFFLE_USE_LIBFFI=OFF
:When
SOUFFLE_USE_LIBFFI=ON (default)
:libffi
method when arity allows it.libffi
method is used.This change also moves some operations to avoid repeating them at each call of a user-defined functor:
libffi
dynamic call structures are prepared in advance during node generation and stored in the node.
