2014-09-27drop stored StringItems in favor of in-memory mappingsDavid Kalnischkies
Strings like Section names or architectures are needed vary often. Instead of writing them each time we need them, we deploy sharing for these special strings. Until now, this was done with a linked list of strings in which we would search, which was stored in the cache. It turns out we can do this just as well in memory as well with a bunch of std::map's. In memory means here that it isn't available anymore if we have a partly invalid cache, but that isn't much of a problem in practice as the status file is compared to the other files we parse very small and includes mostly duplicates, so the space we would gain by storing is more or less equal to the size of the stored linked list…
2014-09-27packages in the cache are sorted by name so noise-freeDavid Kalnischkies
Commit aa0fe657e46b87cc692895a36df12e8b74bb27bb sorts the package names in the hashtable. We make use of this already in these functions, but as a minor sideeffect it also means that we don't have 'noise' anymore between packages belonging to the same group. We therefore don't need to check for a matching name in Grp.FindPkg anymore. Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-09-27search for pkg names in the cache case-sensitiveDavid Kalnischkies
Package names have to be lowercase (debian-policy §5.6.1) and in as lowlevel as these method are it would be quiet strange to treat an invalid package "suddently" as a valid one which other tools might or might not accept. If case-insensitivity is really needed the frontend should ensure this rather than these methods waste cpu cycles by default. Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-09-27deprecate Pkg->Name in favor of Grp->NameDavid Kalnischkies
They both store the same information, so this field just takes up space in the Package struct for no good reason. We mark it "just" as deprecated instead of instantly removing it though as it isn't misleading like Section was and is potentially used in the wild more often.
2014-06-18remove the Section member from package structDavid Kalnischkies
A version belongs to a section and has hence a section member of its own. A package on the other hand can have multiple versions from different sections. This was "solved" by using the section which was parsed first as order of sources.list defines, but that is obviously a horribly unpredictable thing. We therefore directly remove this struct member to free some space and mark the access method as deprecated, which is told to return the section of the 'newest' known version, which is at least predictable, but possible not what it returned before – but nobody knows. Users are way better of with the Section() as returned by the version they are dealing with. It is likely the same for all versions of a package, but in the few cases it isn't, it is important (like packages moving from main/* to contrib/* or into oldlibs …).
2014-06-18cleanup datatypes mix used in binary cacheDavid Kalnischkies
We had a wild mixture of (unsigned) int, long and long long here without much sense, so this commit adds a few typedefs to get some sense in the typesystem and ensures that a ID isn't sometimes computed as int, stored as long and compared with a long long… as this could potentially bite us later on as the size of the archive only increases over time.
2014-06-18increase hashtable size for packages/groups by factor 5David Kalnischkies
It also makes the size configureable, so it can be adapted in the future without the need for an abi break - and even by users… The increase was long overdue as it gives a >10% decrease in runtime of e.g. 'apt-get check -s'. Some (useless) benchmark with 69933 groups and 187796 packages without a pre-built cache: time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=1 → 20m time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=1000 → 6,41s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=2000 → 5,64s (old) time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=3000 → 5,30s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=5000 → 5,08s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=6000 → 5,05s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=7000 → 5,02s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=8000 → 5,00s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=9000 → 4,98s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=10000 → 4,96s (new) time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=15000 → 4,90s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=20000 → 4,86s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=30000 → 4,77s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=40000 → 4,74s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=50000 → 4,73s time apt-get check -so APT::Cache-HashTableSize=60000 → 4,71s The gap increases further for operations which have more package lookups. Factor 5 was chosen as higher values do not provide any really significant timing advantage anymore compared to the memory increase in my testing and there is always the possibility to increase it now if that changes. (also most users will not have 3 releases and 4 architectures in the cache, so theirs will be much smaller and faster).

2014-05-10invalid cache if architecture set doesn't matchDavid Kalnischkies
The cache heavily depends on the architecture(s) it is build for, especially if you move from single- to multiarch. Adding a new architecture to dpkg therefore has to be detected and must invalidate the cache so that we don't operate on incorrect data. The incorrect data will prevent us from doing otherwise sensible actions (it doesn't allow bad things to happen) and the recovery is simple and automatic in most cases, so this hides pretty well and is also not as serious as it might sound at first. Closes: 745036

2013-07-11Version 3 for DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs with MultiArch infoDavid Kalnischkies
Adds on top of Version 2 to all displayed version numbers the architecture as well as the MultiArch flag for consumption by the hooks. Most of the time the architecture will be the same for both versions displayed, but packages might change from "all" to "any" (or back) between versions so we can't display the architecture for packages. Pseudo-Format for Version 3: <name> <version> <arch> <m-a-flag> <compare> <version> <arch> <m-a-flag> Examples: stuff - - none < 1 amd64 none **CONFIGURE** libsame 1 i386 same < 2 i386 same **CONFIGURE** stuff 2 i386 none > 1 i386 none **CONFIGURE** libsame 2 i386 same > - - none **REMOVE** toolkit 1 all foreign > - - none **REMOVE** Closes: #712116
