This change fixes the suite names all around the test files, to make them match to the folder name in which this test files are located. Also, the RCL test files are relocated to the consensus folder, because they are testing consensus functionality.
The `SHAMapItem` class contains a variable-sized buffer that
holds the serialized data associated with a particular item
inside a `SHAMap`.
Prior to this commit, the buffer for the serialized data was
allocated separately. Coupled with the fact that most instances
of `SHAMapItem` were wrapped around a `std::shared_ptr` meant
that an instantiation might result in up to three separate
memory allocations.
This commit switches away from `std::shared_ptr` for `SHAMapItem`
and uses `boost::intrusive_ptr` instead, allowing the reference
count for an instance to live inside the instance itself. Coupled
with using a slab-based allocator to optimize memory allocation
for the most commonly sized buffers, the net result is significant
memory savings. In testing, the reduction in memory usage hovers
between 400MB and 650MB. Other scenarios might result in larger
savings.
In performance testing with NFTs, this commit reduces memory size by
about 15% sustained over long duration.
Commit 2 of 3 in #4218.
The existing class offered several constructors which were mostly
unnecessary. This commit eliminates all existing constructors and
introduces a single new one, taking a `Slice`.
The internal buffer is switched from `std::vector` to `Buffer` to
save a minimum of 8 bytes (plus the buffer slack that is inherent
in `std::vector`) per SHAMapItem instance.
- Under some conditions, comparing `ReadViewFwdRange::iterators`
for equality could derefence an empty `std::unique_ptr` which
will result in a crash.
- Misuse of the `equal` API could result in a `std::bad_cast`
exception being thrown from when iterating transactions or
SLEs from the `OpenView`, `RawStateTable` and `Ledger` classes.
This commit combines a number of cleanups, targeting both the
code structure and the code logic. Large changes include:
- Using more strongly-typed classes for SHAMap nodes, instead of relying
on runtime-time detection of class types. This change saves 16 bytes
of memory per node.
- Improving the interface of SHAMap::addGiveItem and SHAMap::addItem to
avoid the need for passing two bool arguments.
- Documenting the "copy-on-write" semantics that SHAMap uses to
efficiently track changes in individual nodes.
- Removing unused code and simplifying several APIs.
- Improving function naming.
- Simplify and consolidate code for parsing hex input.
- Replace beast::endian::order with boost::endian::order.
- Simplify CountedObject code.
- Remove pre-C++17 workarounds in favor of C++17 based solutions.
- Improve `base_uint` and simplify its hex-parsing interface by
consolidating the `SexHex` and `SetHexExact` methods into one
API: `parseHex` which forces callers to verify the result of
the operation; as a result some public-facing API endpoints
may now return errors when passed values that were previously
accepted.
- Remove the simple fallback implementations of SHA2 and RIPEMD
introduced to reduce our dependency on OpenSSL. The code is
slow and rarely, if ever, exercised and we rely on OpenSSL
functionality for Boost.ASIO as well.
