The libctf dynhash hashtab abstraction supports per-hashtab arbitrary key/item freeing functions -- but it also has a constant slot type that holds both key and value requested by the user, so it needs to use its own freeing function to free that -- and it has nowhere to store the freeing functions the caller requested. So it copies them into every hash item, bloating every slot, even though all items in a given hash table must have the same key and value freeing functions. So point back to the owner using a back-pointer, but don't even spend space in the item or the hashtab allocating those freeing functions unless necessary: if none are needed, we can simply arrange to not pass in ctf_dynhash_item_free as a del_f to hashtab_create_alloc, and none of those fields will ever be accessed. The only downside is that this makes the code sensitive to the order of fields in the ctf_helem_t and ctf_hashtab_t: but the deduplicator allocates so many hash tables that doing this alone cuts memory usage during deduplication by about 10%. (libiberty hashtab itself has a lot of per-hashtab bloat: in the future we might trim that down, or make a trimmer version.) libctf/ * ctf-hash.c (ctf_helem_t) <key_free>: Remove. <value_free>: Likewise. <owner>: New. (ctf_dynhash_item_free): Indirect through the owner. (ctf_dynhash_create): Only pass in ctf_dynhash_item_free and allocate space for the key_free and value_free fields fields if necessary. (ctf_hashtab_insert): Likewise. Fix OOM errno value. (ctf_dynhash_insert): Only access ctf_hashtab's key_free and value_free if they will exist. Set the slot's owner, but only if it exists. (ctf_dynhash_remove): Adjust.
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
