apt/apt-pkg/edsp, branch 2.7.10

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.

apt(8): Wait for frontend and cache lock

2020-02-26T19:36:52Z

This is a rework of !6 with additional stuff for the frontend lock, so we can lock the frontend lock and then keep looping over dpkg lock.

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.

Fix typos reported by codespell in code comments

2019-07-10T14:15:30Z

Also in old changelogs, but nothing really user visible like error messages or alike so barely noteworthy. Reported-By: codespell Gbp-Dch: Ignore
