apt/apt-pkg/edsp/edsplistparser.cc, branch 2.7.4

Use pkgTagSection::Key in more places in src:apt

2022-04-01T12:16:19Z

The speed critical paths were converted earlier, but the remaining could benefit a tiny bit from this as well especially as we have the facility now available and can therefore brush up the code in various places in the process as well. Also takes the time to add the hidden Exists method advertised in the headers, but previously not implemented.

Stop parsing undocumented unknown EDSP field APT-Hash

2022-04-01T12:16:19Z

It was introduced in the first commit for EDSP, but beside this reference, never appears in documentation and code. Seems like an earlier name of what APT-ID ended up to be and as such should be more than safely being able to retire now.

Make map_pointer typesafe

2020-02-24T17:29:07Z

Instead of just using uint32_t, which would allow you to assign e.g. a map_pointer to a map_pointer, use our own smarter struct that has strict type checking. We allow creating a map_pointer from a nullptr, and we allow comparing map_pointer to nullptr, which also deals with comparisons against 0 which are often used, as 0 will be implictly converted to nullptr.

Use a 32-bit djb VersionHash instead of CRC-16

Remove includes of (md5|sha1|sha2).h headers

2020-01-14T12:10:36Z

Remove it everywhere, except where it is still needed.

drop unused/unimplemented & hidden LoadReleaseInfo

2017-09-09T15:22:11Z

The relevant calling code as well as the implementation for the deb system was removed 2 years ago with the refactoring of release information storage (b07aeb1a6e24825e534167a737043441e871de9f). This commit removes the the unused remains of this change with no practical effect on anybody (expect codesize) as the methods were declared as hidden and hence only libapt could have called it. Gbp-Dch: Ignore

Replace APT_CONST with APT_PURE everywhere

2017-08-24T14:56:52Z

As a follow up to the last commit, let's replace APT_CONST with APT_PURE everywhere to clean stuff up.

Reformat and sort all includes with clang-format

2017-07-12T11:57:51Z

This makes it easier to see which headers includes what. The changes were done by running git grep -l '#\s*include' \ | grep -E '.(cc|h)$' \ | xargs sed -i -E 's/(^\s*)#(\s*)include/\1#\2 include/' To modify all include lines by adding a space, and then running ./git-clang-format.sh.

Drop cacheiterators.h include

2017-07-12T11:56:05Z

Including cacheiterators.h before pkgcache.h fails because pkgcache.h depends on cacheiterators.h.

Do not use MD5SumValue for Description_md5()

2016-11-22T21:58:33Z

Our profile says we spend about 5% of the time transforming the hex digits into the binary format used by HashsumValue, all for comparing them against the other strings. That makes no sense at all. According to callgrind, this reduces the overall instruction count from 5,3 billion to 5 billion in my example, which roughly matches the 5%.
