* header cleanup:Ingo Schwarze2014-12-011-1/+0
| | | | | | * add missing forward declarations * remove needless header inclusions * some style unification
* Get rid of HAVE_CONFIG_H, it is always defined; idea from libnbcompat.Ingo Schwarze2014-08-101-2/+1
| | | | | | Include <sys/types.h> where needed, it does not belong in config.h. Remove <stdio.h> from config.h; if it is missing somewhere, it should be added, but i cannot find a *.c file where it is missing.
* missing #include "config.h",Ingo Schwarze2014-08-091-0/+4
| | | | | hence missing definition of __BEGIN_DECLS; found by Thomas Klausner <wiz at NetBSD> on SunOS 5.11
* Next speed optimization step for the new apropos(1).Ingo Schwarze2014-04-101-8/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Split manual names out of the common "keys" table into their own "names" table. This reduces standard apropos(1) search times (i.e. searching for names and descriptions only) by typically about 70% for the full /usr/share/man database. (Yes, that multiplies with the previous optimization step, so both together have reduced search times by a factor of more than six. I'm not done yet, expect more to come.) Even with the minimal databases built with makewhatis(8) -Q, this step still reduces search times by 15-20%. For both cases, database sizes and build times hardly change (+/-2%).
* After careful gprof(1)ing of the new apropos(1), move the descriptionsIngo Schwarze2014-04-091-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | back from the keys table to the mpages table: I found a good way to still use them in searches, without complication of the code. On my notebook, this reduces typical apropos(1) search times by about 40%, it reduces /usr/share/man database size by 6% in makewhatis(8) -Q mode and by 2% in standard mode (less overhead storing pointers to mpages), and it doesn't measurably change database build times (may even be going down by a percent or so because less data is being copied around in ohashes).
* Remember which names are in the NAME section.Ingo Schwarze2014-04-041-7/+8
| | | | | | | This helps to find missing MLINKS. Database build times do not change and database growth is minimal (1.2% with -Q, 0.7% without -Q in /usr/share/man), so making this optional would be pointless.
* Support a second -v on mandocdb(8) to show keys while they are being added;Ingo Schwarze2014-01-191-0/+31
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.
