XPTInterfaceDescriptor::num_additional_types can easily fit in 8 bits -- in
practice it doesn't exceed 20, and there's already a check in DoTypeDescriptor
that it doesn't exceed 255. This patch shrinks it and moves that check into
XPT_InterfaceDescriptorAddTypes() so that any overflow would be detected more
reliably.
On 64-bit platforms this reduces sizeof(XPTInterfaceDescriptor) from 40 to 32
and correspondingly reduces "xpti-working-set" by 16 KiB.
The patch also changes XPT_InterfaceDescriptorAddTypes() into a local function,
because it's defined and only used in xpt_struct.cpp.
This patch:
- Removes XPTArena's ability to support arbitrary alignments.
- Hardwires two sub-arenas into XPTArena, one with alignment of 8 and one with
alignment of 1.
- Uses the first sub-arena for most allocations and the second sub-arena for C
string allocations.
These changes reduce "xpti-working-set" by 56 KiB.
The patch also renames all the used of "malloc" in XPT identifiers with
"calloc", to make clearer that the result is always zeroed.
With careful layout we can reduce sizeof(XPTTypeDescriptor) from 4 to 3, which
also reduces sizeof(XPTParamDescriptor) from 6 to 4. This reduces
"xpti-working-set" by 16 KiB.
The union-of-structs also improves readability by making it clearer exactly
which fields are used for which types.
This requires merging XPT_DoHeaderPrologue() and XPT_DoHeader(), which is
straightforward.
This reduces "xpti-working-set" by 16 KiB on 64-bit platforms.
XPTTypeDescriptor::argnum2 is unused. Removing it reduces
sizeof(XPTTypeDescriptor) from 6 bytes to 4 bytes, which reduces the
"xpti-working-set" measurement by 80 KiB (measured on 64-bit).
XPT has some functions and macros for freeing memory. However, they (a) are
only used on error paths, and (b) don't actually free memory -- they just
optionally log the "freeing" -- because piecewise freeing doesn't make sense
with arena allocation.
This patch removes all that unnecessary machinery.
RegisterBuffer() is the only place that creates an XPTState, and it also
destroys it. So the XPTState can be allocated on the stack, which voids the
need for the creation of an XPTArena.
XPT supports annotations but xpt.py doesn't generate them except for a single
empty annotation (to indicate there are no real annotations). So we can remove
almost all support for them. This also allows XPTString to be removed.
Currently XPT can both encode and decode, but encoding has been handled by
Python code since bug 643817, so the encoding support can be removed. This
results in many simplifications. Some notable changes:
- All the XPTHashTable code (including XPTDatapool::offset_map) is no longer
necessary.
- PrimitiveTest.cpp and SimpleTypeLib.cpp both don't make much sense without
encoding support, so I removed them.
- A lot of the version code was already unused, e.g. XPT_VERSION_*,
XPT_TYPELIB_VERSIONS_STRUCT, XPT_TYPELIB_VERSIONS.
XPT_MAJOR_INCOMPATIBLE_VERSION is the only thing actually used in version
checks.
- The patch also removes some code that was dead even before encoding removal,
such as XPT_ParseVersionString().
The WindowsAddressSpaceReporter generates one memory report per segment, and
there can be 10,000+ segments.
This patch changes things so that one memory report is generated per segment
*kind* -- at most a couple of dozen -- rather than one per *segment*.
This patch brings the behavior of this method into line with the comment that
describes it and other methods in this class that have a similar test.
I discovered this bug while exercising this code from animation code and was
getting test failures due to returning -Infinity instead of the expected
Infinity.
This patch removes NameTableEntry::mString. This requires adding mNameArray to
NameTableKey so that we can index off it in matchNameKeysCaseInsensitive().
This change saves 41.5 KiB per process.
