* Move the regression suite to the attic.Ingo Schwarze2014-03-0386-1432/+0
| | | | | | | It has not been used or maintained for several years, and we won't start using it now. Devlopment regression testing is done in OpenBSD, and there is no value in maintaining two regression suites in parallel.
* After Werner Lemberg accepted and committed some updates to the manualIngo Schwarze2014-02-162-21/+33

* Parse and ignore the roff(7) .ce request (center some lines).Ingo Schwarze2014-02-142-5/+2
| | | | | | | | We even parse and ignore the .ad request (adjustment mode), and it doesn't make sense to more prominently warn about temporary than about permanent adjustment changes. Request found by naddy@ in xloadimage(1) and by juanfra@ in racket(1).
* Implement the roff(7) .as request (append to user-defined string).Ingo Schwarze2014-02-142-16/+15
| | | | | | | | | Missing feature found by jca@ in ratpoison(1). The ratpoison(1) manual still doesn't work because it uses .shift and .while, too (apparently, ratpoison is so complex that it needs a Turing-complete language to even format its manual :-). Written at Christchurch International Airport.
* Handle some predefined read-only number registers, e.g. .H and .V.Ingo Schwarze2014-02-142-5/+43
| | | | | | | | In particular, this improves handling of the pod2man(1) preamble; for examples of the effect, see some author names in perlthrtut(1). Missing feature reported by Andreas Voegele <mail at andreasvoegele dot com> more than two years ago. Written at Christchurch International Airport.

* Implement the \: (optional line break) escape sequence,Ingo Schwarze2014-01-227-19/+48
| | | | | | | documented in the Ossanna-Kernighan-Ritter troff manual and also supported by groff. Missing feature reported by Steffen Nurpmeso <sdaoden at gmail dot com>.
* Treat the line after .Cd as a single argument.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-211-1/+1
| | | | | This doesn't hurt normal manual display and makes the mandocdb(8) database more useful.
* Keep words after .Ic together in a single argument.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-201-1/+1
| | | | | This doesn't hurt normal manual display and makes the mandocdb(8) database more useful.

* Avoid the risk of trying to modify a literal string.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-191-2/+3
|
* Always store the arch in lower-case only.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-191-5/+9
| | | | Reduces database size by ~0.5%, and by ~1.5% with -Q.
* Get rid of the local keys table, use the new mansearch_const.c.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-192-68/+30
| | | | No functional change.
* Support a second -v on mandocdb(8) to show keys while they are being added;Ingo Schwarze2014-01-193-2/+49
| | | | | i need that for debugging, in particular to be used with -t. To be able to do so, provide a global table of key names, for reuse.
* Cope with slightly broken NAME sections in man(7) pagesIngo Schwarze2014-01-181-0/+9
| | | | | | having a trailing comma after the last name, like this: ASN1_OBJECT_new, ASN1_OBJECT_free, - object allocation functions
* Sort the macro keys by their real-world frequency to reduce the averageIngo Schwarze2014-01-181-40/+40
| | | | | | | | mask size. No functional change. This shrinks the standard /usr/share/man database by 7%, now at 10.3x the size of whatis.db, and with -Q even by 11%, now at 3.0x of whatis.db. Now i'm out of ideas to easily shrink the size of the database.
* Drop the AUTOINCREMENT PRIMARY KEYs from the mlinks and keys tables.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-181-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | They are completely unused, and i cannot imagine what they *could* ever be used for; but apparently, they are expensive to generate. Standard DB build time goes down by 10%, now at 1.9x of makewhatis. Standard DB size goes down by 4%, now at 11x of makewhatis. DB build time with -Q goes down by 15%, now at 0.28x of makewhatis. DB size with -Q goes down by 3%, now at 3.35x of makewhatis.
* Despite some experimenting, i'm unable to find any relevant effect ofIngo Schwarze2014-01-181-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | creating an index for the keys table on apropos(1) search times; apparently, adding that index was premature optimization in the first place; so, stop adding that index. Its root gone, the following evil is reduced (/usr/share/man on my notebook) - DB build time with -Q goes down by 15%, now at 1/3 of makewhatis - DB size with -Q goes down by 35%, now at 3.5x of makewhatis - full DB build time goes down by 12%, now at 2.1x of makewhatis - full DB size goes down by 42%, now at 11.5x of makewhatis
* Remove useless use of strnlen(3).Ingo Schwarze2014-01-111-1/+1
| | | | Yuckiness pointed out by deraadt@.
* Cache the result of uname(3) such that we don't need to call itIngo Schwarze2014-01-071-29/+22
| | | | | over and over again for each manual; found with gprof(1). Speeds up mandocdb(8) -Q by 3%, now at 39.5% of makewhatis(8).
* Gprof(1) is fun. You should use it more often.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-061-9/+6
| | | | | | | | | | Another 10% speedup for mandocdb(8) -Q, and even 3% without -Q. With -Q, we are now at 41% of the time required by makewhatis(8). Do not copy predefined strings into the dynamic string table, just leave them in their own static table and use that one as a fallback at lookup time. This saves us copying and deleting them for each manual. No functional change.
* Another 18% speedup for mandocdb(8) -Q, found by gprof(1).Ingo Schwarze2014-01-062-10/+12
| | | | | | | In -Q mode, refrain form validating and normalizing the format of the date given in .Dd or .TH, as it won't be used anyway. For /usr/share/man, mandocdb -Q now takes 45% of the time of makewhatis(8).
* Another 25% speedup for mandocdb(8) -Q mode, found with gprof(1).Ingo Schwarze2014-01-063-6/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For /usr/share/man, we only need 56% of the time of makewhatis(8) now. In groff, user-defined macros clashing with mdoc(7) or man(7) standard macros are cleared when parsing the .Dd or .TH macro, respectively. Of course, we continue doing that in standard mode to assure full groff bug compatibility. However, in -Q mode, full groff bug compatibility makes no sense when it's unreasonably expensive, so skip this step in -Q mode. Real-world manuals hardly ever redefine standard macros, that's terrible style, and if they do, it's pointless to do so before .Dd or .TH because it has no effect. Even if someone does, it's extremely unlikely to break mandocdb(8) -Q parsing because we abort the parse sequence after the NAME section, anyway. So if you manually redefine .Sh, .Nm, .Nd, or .SH in a way that doesn't work at all and rely on .Dd or .TH to fix it up for you, your broken manual will no longer get a perfect apropos(1) entry until you re-run mandocdb(8) without -Q. It think that consequence is acceptable in order to get a 25% speedup for everyone else.
* Do not sync to disk after each individual manual page (duh!),Ingo Schwarze2014-01-061-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | only sync to disk one single time when all data is ready. Rebuild times for /usr/share/man/mandoc.db shrink on my notebook: In standard mode from 45 seconds to 11 seconds (75% reduction) In -Q mode from 25 seconds to 3.1 seconds (87% reduction) For comparison: makewhatis(8): 4.2 seconds That is, in -Q mode, we are now *faster* than the existing makewhatis(8), and careful profiling shows there is still a lot of room for improval.
* Fix mandocdb(8) -d and -u.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-061-14/+35
| | | | It was broken by recent optimizations.
* Rename dbindex() to dbadd() to be less confusing.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-061-5/+5
| | | | | The concept of an index file is gone since the switch to SQLite. No functional change.
* Remove the redundant "file" column from the "mlinks" table.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-062-12/+19
| | | | | The contents can easily be reconstructed from sec, arch, name, form. Shrinks the database by another 3% in standard mode and 9% in -Q mode.
* Drop Nd from the mpages table, it is still in the keys table.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-065-28/+7
| | | | | This shrinks the database in standard mode by 3%, in -Q mode by 9%, without loss of functionality.
* Joerg Sonnenberger contributed copyrightable amounts of text toIngo Schwarze2014-01-066-0/+6
| | | | | | some files. To make it clear that he also put his contributions under the ISC license, with his explicit permission, add his Copyright notice to the relevant files. No code change.
* Cope with mparse_alloc() interface change.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-052-2/+2

* Add an option -Q (quick) to mandocdb(8)Ingo Schwarze2014-01-0510-29/+90
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | for accelerated generation of reduced-size databases. Implement this by allowing the parsers to optionally abort the parse sequence after the NAME section. While here, garbage collect the unused void *arg attribute of struct mparse and mparse_alloc() and fix some errors in mandoc(3). This reduces the processing time of mandocdb(8) on /usr/share/man by a factor of 2 and the database size by a factor of 4. However, it still takes 5 times the time and 6 times the space of makewhatis(8), so more work is clearly needed.
* Tag functions with format strings as arguments as printf-like.Joerg Sonnenberger2014-01-054-2/+11
| | | | | Fix one case where a non-literal is used as format string. Fix another case where a variable is formatted using the wrong type.
* Merge NetBSD's r1.4: Rename data to getdata to work around bugs in theJoerg Sonnenberger2014-01-051-4/+4
| | | | PPC64 toolchain.
* Rip out the complete "reachable" checks, without replacement.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-051-68/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's a pity i spent time during t2k13 writing this; however, when an entire concept is busted, let us not look back, There is no such thing as an unreachable page. Even if you are crazy enough to put a page starting with ".Dt NAMEI 9" into a file man1/cat.1, we now make sure that it can be found by all of the following: Nm=namei Nm=cat sec=1 sec=9 It will always be displayed as: cat(1) - pathname lookup So you know that you have to type `man cat` to get at it. That obsoletes the concept of "unreachable manuals" for good.
* Remove the obsolete file name column from the mpages table.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-052-36/+30
| | | | | This column wasn't helpful because one manpage can have multiple MLINKS. Use the file name column in the mlinks table, instead.
* Remove the obsolete sec and arch columns from the mpages table.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-052-10/+6
| | | | | They were confusing because a manpage can have MLINKS in different sections and architectures.
* Reimplement apropos -s NUM -S ARCH EXPR by internally converting it toIngo Schwarze2014-01-052-23/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | apropos \( EXPR \) -a 'sec~^NUM$' -a 'arch~^(ARCH|any)$' in preparation for removal of sec and arch from the mpage table. Almost no functional change except for the following bonus: This also makes sure that for cross-section and cross-arch MLINKs, all of the following work: apropos -s 1 encrypt apropos -s 8 encrypt apropos -s 1 makekey apropos -s 8 makekey While here, print error messages about invalid regexps to stderr.
* Put section and architecture info into the keys table,Ingo Schwarze2014-01-053-2/+14
| | | | | | | | | | in preparation for removing them from the mpages table, aiming for cleaner and more uniform interfaces. Database growth is below 4%, part of which will be reclaimed. As a bonus, this allows searches like: ./obj/apropos An=kettenis -a arch=ppc ./obj/apropos An=kettenis -a sec~[^4]
* New implementation of complex search criteria using \(, \), -a becauseIngo Schwarze2014-01-041-55/+91
| | | | | | the old implementation got lost in the Berkeley to SQLite switch. Note that this is not just feature creep, but required for upcoming database format cleanup and simplification.
* Put mansearch.{h,c}, manpage.c, and compat_ohash.{h,c}Ingo Schwarze2014-01-041-2/+7
| | | | into the distribution tarball. Bump VERSION.
* Put ./configure into the distributin tarball.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-041-1/+3
|
* Use C99 uint32_t, not BSD-style u_int32_t.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-042-3/+3
| | | | Needed for Solaris 10 as reported by Matthias Scheler.
* Even though strnlen(3) is required by POSIX 2008,Ingo Schwarze2014-01-046-9/+66
| | | | | | Matthias Scheler reports than Solaris 10 lacks it. While here, sort the declarations in config.h and move the headers to the top.
* Clean up feature tests:Ingo Schwarze2014-01-048-72/+86
| | | | | | * Split the configure steering script out of the Makefile. * Let the configure step depend on the test sources. * Clean up the test programs such that they can be run.
* Avoid "utf8" in the names of a function and a struct memberIngo Schwarze2014-01-021-18/+18
| | | | | that don't necessarily have anything to do with UTF-8. Just renaming, no functional change.
* Do not put UTF-8-encoded strings into the database by default, use ASCII.Ingo Schwarze2014-01-021-16/+34
| | | | Just like for mandoc(1), provide a -Tutf8 option for people who want that.
