This type was nothing but a map of defs.
We can as easily just pass an array of defs
into upb_symtab_add().
|
|
Includes are now via upb/foo.h.
Files specific to the protobuf format are
now in upb/pb (the core library is concerned
with message definitions, handlers, and
byte streams, but knows nothing about any
particular serializationf format).
|
|
|
|
Next on the chopping block is upb_string.
|
|
I'm realizing that basically all upb objects
will need to be refcounted to be sharable
across languages, but *not* messages which
are on their way out so we can get out of
the business of data representations.
Things which must be refcounted:
- encoders, decoders
- handlers objects
- defs

Startseq/endseq handlers are called at the beginning
and end of a sequence of repeated values. Protobuf
does not really have direct support for this (repeated
primitive fields do not delimit "begin" and "end" of
the sequence) but we can infer them from the bytestream.
The benefit of supporting them explicitly is that they
get their own stack frame and closure, so we can avoid
having to find the array's address over and over and
deciding if we need to initialize it.
This will also pave the way for better support of JSON,
which does have explicit "startseq/endseq" markers: [].

Now the dispatcher will call error handlers
instaed of returning statuses that the caller
has to constantly check.

It can successfully parse SpeedMessage1.
Preliminary results: 750MB/s on Core2 2.4GHz.
This number is 2.5x proto2.
This isn't apples-to-apples, because
proto2 is parsing to a struct and we are
just doing stream parsing, but for apps
that are currently using proto2, this is the
improvement they would see if they could
move to stream-based processing.
Unfortunately perf-regression-test.py is
broken, and I'm not 100% sure why. It would
be nice to fix it first (to ensure that
there are no performance regressions for
the table-based decoder) but I'm really
impatient to get the JIT checked in.

This doesn't reflect any material change in
how I will be working on upb, and I have no
problem making this change. It's still open
source under the BSD license, and I'll still
be working on it well beyond the hours that
constitute a normal job.

This is a significant change to the upb_stream
protocol, and should hopefully be the last
significant change.
All callbacks are now registered ahead-of-time
instead of having delegated callbacks registered
at runtime, which makes it much easier to
aggressively optimize ahead-of-time (like with a
JIT).
Other impacts of this change:
- You no longer need to have loaded descriptor.proto
as a upb_def to load other descriptors! This means
the special-case code we used for bootstrapping is
no longer necessary, and we no longer need to link
the descriptor for descriptor.proto into upb.
- A client can now register any upb_value as what
will be delivered to their value callback, not
just a upb_fielddef*. This should allow for other
clients to get more bang out of the streaming
decoder.
This change unfortunately causes a bit of a performance
regression -- I think largely due to highly
suboptimal code that GCC generates when structs
are returned by value. See:
http://blog.reverberate.org/2011/03/19/when-a-compilers-slow-code-actually-bites-you/
On the other hand, once we have a JIT this should
no longer matter.

Default values are now supported, and the Lua extension
can now create and modify individual protobuf objects.
|
|
This makes it easier to benchmark and test the
multiple possible implementations of varint decoding.
|
|
The symtab that contains them is now hidden, and
you can look them up by name but there is no access
to the symtab itself, so there is no risk of
mutating it (by extending it, adding other defs
to it, etc).
|
|
upb_inttable() now supports a "compact" operation that will
decide on an array size and put all entries with small enough
keys into the array part for faster lookup.
Also exposed the upb_itof_ent structure and put a few useful
values there, so they are one fewer pointer chase away.

test_vs_proto2.googlemessage1 passes again,
with no memory leaks!

A protobuf -> text stream for descriptor.proto
now outputs the same text as proto2.

This can allow strings to reference static data, and
reduced the memory footprint of test_def by about 10%
(3k).
