This implements a suggestion made in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2014-10/msg00587.html
Among other things, this means timer.el no longer needs to
autoload the time-date module.
* doc/lispref/os.texi (Time of Day, Time Conversion, Time Parsing)
(Processor Run Time, Time Calculations):
Document the new behavior, plus be clearer about the old behavior.
(Idle Timers): Take advantage of new functionality.
* etc/NEWS: Document the changes.
* lisp/allout-widgets.el (allout-elapsed-time-seconds): Doc fix.
* lisp/arc-mode.el (archive-ar-summarize):
* lisp/calendar/time-date.el (seconds-to-time, days-to-time, time-since):
* lisp/emacs-lisp/timer.el (timer-relative-time, timer-event-handler)
(run-at-time, with-timeout-suspend, with-timeout-unsuspend):
* lisp/net/tramp.el (tramp-time-less-p, tramp-time-subtract):
* lisp/proced.el (proced-time-lessp):
* lisp/timezone.el (timezone-time-from-absolute):
* lisp/type-break.el (type-break-schedule, type-break-time-sum):
Simplify by using new functionality.
* lisp/calendar/cal-dst.el (calendar-next-time-zone-transition):
Do not return time values in obsolete and undocumented (HI . LO)
format; use (HI LO) instead.
* lisp/calendar/time-date.el (with-decoded-time-value):
Treat 'nil' as current time. This is mostly for XEmacs.
(encode-time-value, with-decoded-time-value): Obsolete.
(time-add, time-subtract, time-less-p): Use no-op autoloads, for
XEmacs. Define only if XEmacs, as they're now C builtins in Emacs.
* lisp/ldefs-boot.el: Update to match new time-date.el
* lisp/proced.el: Do not require time-date.
* src/editfns.c (invalid_time): New function.
Use it instead of 'error ("Invalid time specification")'.
(time_add, time_subtract, time_arith, Ftime_add, Ftime_less_p)
(decode_float_time, lisp_to_timespec, lisp_time_struct):
New functions.
(make_time_tail, make_time): Remove. All uses changed to use
new functions or plain list4i.
(disassemble_lisp_time): Return effective length if successful.
Check that LOW is an integer, if it's combined with other components.
(decode_time_components): Decode into struct lisp_time, not
struct timespec, so that we can support a wide set of times
regardless of whether time_t is signed. Decode plain numbers
as seconds since the Epoch, and nil as the current time.
(lisp_time_argument, lisp_seconds_argument, Ffloat_time):
Reimplement in terms of new functions.
(Fencode_time): Just use list2i.
(syms_of_editfns): Add time-add, time-subtract, time-less-p.
* src/keyboard.c (decode_timer): Don't allow the new formats (floating
point or nil) in timers.
* src/systime.h (LO_TIME_BITS): New constant. Use it everywhere in
place of the magic number '16'.
(struct lisp_time): New type.
(decode_time_components): Use it.
(lisp_to_timespec): New decl.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/gv.el (gv-get): Autoload functions to find their
gv-expander.
(gv--defun-declaration): New function.
(defun-declarations-alist): Use it.
(gv-define-modify-macro, gv-pushnew!, gv-inc!, gv-dec!): Remove.
(gv-place): Autoload.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl.el (cl--dotimes, cl--dolist): Remember subr.el's
original definition of dotimes and dolist.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-expr-access-order): Remove unused.
(cl-dolist, cl-dotimes): Use `dolist' and `dotimes'.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-lib.el: Move gv handlers from cl-macs to here.
(cl-fifth, cl-sixth, cl-seventh, cl-eighth)
(cl-ninth, cl-tenth): Move gv handler to the function's definition.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-extra.el (cl-subseq, cl-get, cl-getf): Move gv handler
to the function's definition.
* lisp/Makefile.in (COMPILE_FIRST): Re-order to speed it up by about 50%.
* lisp/window.el:
* lisp/files.el:
* lisp/faces.el:
* lisp/env.el: Don't use CL.
