Stefan Beller	1ecbf31d02	hashmap: migrate documentation from Documentation/technical into header While at it, clarify the use of `key`, `keydata`, `entry_or_key` as well as documenting the new data pointer for the compare function. Rework the example. Signed-off-by: Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	8 years ago
Stefan Beller	7663cdc86c	hashmap.h: compare function has access to a data field When using the hashmap a common need is to have access to caller provided data in the compare function. A couple of times we abuse the keydata field to pass in the data needed. This happens for example in patch-ids.c. This patch changes the function signature of the compare function to have one more void pointer available. The pointer given for each invocation of the compare function must be defined in the init function of the hashmap and is just passed through. Documentation of this new feature is deferred to a later patch. This is a rather mechanical conversion, just adding the new pass-through parameter. However while at it improve the naming of the fields of all compare functions used by hashmaps by ensuring unused parameters are prefixed with 'unused_' and naming the parameters what they are (instead of 'unused' make it 'unused_keydata').

Jeff Hostetler	0607e10009	hashmap: add disallow_rehash setting Teach hashmap to allow rehashes to be suppressed. This is useful when hashmaps are accessed by multiple threads. It still requires the caller to properly manage their locking. This just prevents unexpected rehashing during inserts and deletes.

Jeff Hostetler	f75619bd6d	hashmap: allow memihash computation to be continued Add variant of memihash() to allow the hash computation to be continued. There are times when we compute the hash on a full path and then the hash on just the path to the parent directory. This can be expensive on large repositories. With this, we can hash the parent directory first. And then continue the computation to include the "/filename".

Karsten Blees	7b64d42d22	hashmap: add string interning API Interning short strings with high probability of duplicates can reduce the memory footprint and speed up comparisons. Add strintern() and memintern() APIs that use a hashmap to manage the pool of unique, interned strings. Note: strintern(getenv()) could be used to sanitize git's use of getenv(), in case we ever encounter a platform where a call to getenv() invalidates previous getenv() results (which is allowed by POSIX).

Karsten Blees	ab73a9d119	hashmap: add simplified hashmap_get_from_hash() API Hashmap entries are typically looked up by just a key. The hashmap_get() API expects an initialized entry structure instead, to support compound keys. This flexibility is currently only needed by find_dir_entry() in name-hash.c (and compat/win32/fscache.c in the msysgit fork). All other (currently five) call sites of hashmap_get() have to set up a near emtpy entry structure, resulting in duplicate code like this: struct hashmap_entry keyentry; hashmap_entry_init(&keyentry, hash(key)); return hashmap_get(map, &keyentry, key); Add a hashmap_get_from_hash() API that allows hashmap lookups by just specifying the key and its hash code, i.e.: return hashmap_get_from_hash(map, hash(key), key); Signed-off-by: Karsten Blees <blees@dcon.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	11 years ago
Karsten Blees	039dc71a7c	hashmap: factor out getting a hash code from a SHA1 Copying the first bytes of a SHA1 is duplicated in six places, however, the implications (the actual value would depend on the endianness of the platform) is documented only once. Add a properly documented API for this. Signed-off-by: Karsten Blees <blees@dcon.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	11 years ago

Karsten Blees	6a364ced49	add a hashtable implementation that supports O(1) removal The existing hashtable implementation (in hash.[ch]) uses open addressing (i.e. resolve hash collisions by distributing entries across the table). Thus, removal is difficult to implement with less than O(n) complexity. Resolving collisions of entries with identical hashes (e.g. via chaining) is left to the client code. Add a hashtable implementation that supports O(1) removal and is slightly easier to use due to builtin entry chaining. Supports all basic operations init, free, get, add, remove and iteration. Also includes ready-to-use hash functions based on the public domain FNV-1 algorithm (http://www.isthe.com/chongo/tech/comp/fnv). The per-entry data structure (hashmap_entry) is piggybacked in front of the client's data structure to save memory. See test-hashmap.c for usage examples. The hashtable is resized by a factor of four when 80% full. With these settings, average memory consumption is about 2/3 of hash.[ch], and insertion is about twice as fast due to less frequent resizing. Lookups are also slightly faster, because entries are strictly confined to their bucket (i.e. no data of other buckets needs to be traversed).
