[DTrace-devel] [PATCH 05/14] Call dt_cg_assoc_op() via dt_cg_load_var()

[Nick Alcock]

On 2 May 2023, eugene loh told this:

> From: Eugene Loh <eugene.loh at oracle.com>

> To load a variable, we currently call dt_cg_assoc_op() for associative
> arrays and dt_cg_load_var() for all other types of variables.  This is
> unfortunate since associative arrays and thread-local variables share
> a lot of code, and this sharing will increase once NULL strings are
> supported.  Further, such splitting is a different model from
> dt_cg_store_var(), where all variable types are handled by a common
> function.
>
> Therefore, call dt_cg_assoc_op() via dt_cg_load_var().  Subsequent
> patches will inline the call and consolidate common code.  This first
> step appears separately to clarify the changes.

Makes it much easier to review, thank you.
