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.
|
|
It still doesn't reflect the size the cache has on the disk compared to
what is given as total size (90 vs 103 MB), but by counting all structs
in we are at least a bit closer to the reality.

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.
|
|
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).

This is a internal struct not a external interface so the actual
breakage should be small.
|

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.

It seems unlikely for now that proper archives will carry multiple
Description-* stanzas in the Packages (or Translation-*) file, but
sometimes apt eats its own output as shown by the usage of the CD team
and it would be interesting to let apt output multiple translations
e.g. in 'apt-cache show'.
|
|
In #737085 we see that apt can be confused if informations about
versions only differ slightly. This commit adds a way of at least adding
a few more data points with the next abi break to help a bit with it.

Beside being a bit cleaner it hopefully also resolves oddball problems
I have with high levels of parallel jobs.

do not blindly assume that all packages stanzas have a "Description:"
field in 'apt-cache show' as well as in the cache creation itself.
We instead assume now that if the stanza has a Description, it will not
be the first field as we look out for "\nDescription" to take care of
MD5sum as well as (maybe ignored) translated Descriptions embedded in
the package stanza.

to save some space and allow quick comparisions later on

* apt-pkg/pkgcache.cc:
- assume sorted hashtable entries for groups/packages
|
|
so use this to try to reuse some version strings
|
|
version strings e.g. for implicit multi-arch dependencies
|
|
|
|
- do not store the MD5Sum for every description language variant as
it will be the same for all so it can be shared to save cache space
|
|
- Fix crash if the cache is remapped while writing a Provides version
(LP: #1066445).
|
|
as it is used for arch:all packages as a map to arch:native.
Otherwise arch comparisons later will see differences (Closes: #689323)
|
|
handled in NewVersion is already registered
|
|
we use the not remapped iterators after a move of the mmap again
|
|
- ensure that dependencies for packages:none are always generated
|
|
- do not create 'native' (or now 'none') package structures as a side
effect of description translation parsing as it pollutes the cache
|
|
by introducing a pseudo-architecture 'none' so that the small group of
users with these packages can get right of them without introducing too
much hassle for other users (Closes: #686346)
|
|
- always reset _error->StackCount in MakeStatusCache (Closes: #677175)
|
|
- make IsDuplicatedDescription static so that it is really private
as we don't need a symbol for it as it is not in a header
|
|
we end up working on dangling pointers otherwise which segfaults on
s390x and ppc64 (Closes: #669427)
|
|
- check if NewDescription allocation has failed and error out accordingly
|
|
(and be it if it tries to announce that…)
|
|
struct is created and not at the end of the cache generation
This allows us to be independent from the configured architectures for
these kind of conflicts, we get natural progress for free and
only the needed dependencies are in th respective binary cache.

just with different debugging information at the end
|
|
the merging with this knowledge a bit and by correctly sharing the lists
we only need to have a single description list for possibly many different
versions. This also means that description translations are shared between
different sources

(performance) Prefer prefix ++/-- operators for non-primitive types.
