Charset hashing actually use the value of the leaf pointers, which is
clearly wrong, especially now that charsets are not shared across multiple
font directories.
Using a simple shell script that processes the public headers, two header
files are constructed that map public symbols to hidden internal aliases
avoiding the assocated PLT entry for referring to a public symbol.
A few mistakes in the FcPrivate/FcPublic annotations were also discovered
through this process
Eliminate need to reference cache object once per cached font, instead
just count the number of fonts used from the cache and bump the reference
count once by that amount. I think this makes this refernece technique
efficient enough for use.
Caches contain patterns and character sets which are reference counted and
visible to applications. Reference count the underlying cache object so that
it stays around until all reference objects are no longer in use.
This is less efficient than just leaving all caches around forever, but does
avoid eternal size increases in case applications ever bother to actually
look for changes in the font configuration.
Without reference counting on cache objects, there's no way to know when
an application is finished using objects pulled from the cache. Until some
kinf of cache reference counting can be done, leave all cache objects mapped
for the life of the library (until FcFini is called). To mitigate the cost
of this, ensure that each instance of a cache file is mapped only once.
Borrowing header stuff written for cairo, fontconfig now exposes in the
shared library only the symbols which are included in the public header
files. All private symbols are hidden using suitable compiler directives.
A few new public functions were required for the fontconfig utility programs
(fc-cat and fc-cache) so those were added, bumping the .so minor version number
in the process.
The Delicious family includes one named Delicious Heavy, a bold variant
which is unfortunately marked as having normal weight. Because the family
name is 'Delicious', fontconfig accidentally selects this font instead of
the normal weight variant. The fix here rewrites the scanned data by running
the scanned pattern through a new substitution sequence tagged with
<match target=scan>; a sample for the Delicious family is included to
demonstrate how it works (and fix Delicious at the same time).
Also added was a new match predicate -- the 'decorative' predicate which is
automatically detected in fonts by searching style names for key decorative
phrases like SmallCaps, Shadow, Embosed and Antiqua. Suggestions for
additional decorative key words are welcome. This should have little effect
on font matching except when two fonts share the same characteristics except
for this value.
Use the version number inside the cache file to mark backward compatible
changes while continuing to reserve the filename number for incompatible
changes.
Instead of making filename canonicalization occur in multiple places, it
occurs only in FcStrAddFilename now, as all filenames pass through that
function at one point.
Many Japanese fonts incorrectly include names tagged as Roman encoding and
English language which are actually Japanese names in the SJIS encoding.
Guess that names with a large number of high bits set are SJIS encoded
Japanese names rather than English names.
A pattern specifying 'Chinese' (:lang=zh) without a territory should be
satisfied by any font supporting any Chinese lang. The code was requiring
that the lang tags match exactly, causing this sort to fail.
Within a fontset, the patterns are stored as pointers in an array.
When stored as offsets, the offsets are relative to the fontset object
itself, not the base of the array of pointers.
Charset freezer api now uses allocated object. Also required minor fixes to
charset freezer code to remove assumption that all input charsets are
persistant.
Instead of passing directory information around in separate variables,
collect it all in an FcCache structure. Numerous internal and tool
interfaces changed as a result of this.
Charsets are now pre-frozen before being serialized. This causes them to
share across multiple fonts in the same cache.
Automatically list all font directories when no arguments are given to
fc-cat. Also add -r option to recurse from specified cache directories.
fc-cat also now prints the cache filename in verbose mode, along with the
related directory name.
Validate cache contents and skip broken caches, looking down cache path for
valid ones.
Every time a directory is scanned, it will be written to a cache file if
possible, so fc-cache doesn't need to re-write the cache file. This makes
detecting when the cache was generated a bit tricky, so we guess that if the
cache wasn't valid before running and is valid afterwards, the cache file
was written.
Also, allow empty charsets to be serialized with null leaves/numbers.
Eliminate a leak in FcEdit by switching to FcObject sooner.
Call FcFini from fc-match to make valgrind happy.
Eliminate ancient list of object name databases and load names into single
hash table that includes type information. Typecheck all pattern values to
avoid mis-typed pattern elements.
FcCharSetSerialize was computing the offset to the unserialized leaf,
which left it pointing at random data when the cache was reloaded.
fc-cat has been updated to work with the new cache structure.
Various debug messages extended to help diagnose serialization errors.
Pagesize no longer matters in architecture decisions, the entire cache file
is mmaped into the library. However, lots of intptr_t values are in use now,
so that value is important.
fc-lang now requires fcserialize.c, which has been added to the repository.
Replace all of the bank/id pairs with simple offsets, recode several
data structures to always use offsets inside the library to avoid
conditional paths. Exposed data structures use pointers to hold offsets,
setting the low bit to distinguish between offset and pointer.
Use offset-based data structures for lang charset encodings; eliminates
separate data structure format for that file.
Much testing will be needed; offsets are likely not detected everywhere in
the library yet.
The fancy new FcFontSetMatch algorithm would discard fonts for the
wrong reasons; fc-match sans:lang=en,ja would discard all fonts without
Japanese support. This commit reverts to the original algorithm which
ensure that FcFontSetMatch always matches the first font in the
FcFontSetSort return list.
FcStrCanonFilename eliminates ./ and ../ elements from pathnames through
simple string editing. Also, relative path names are fixed by prepending the
current working directory.
With the removal of the in-directory cache files, and the addition of
per-user cache directories, there is no longer any reason to preserve the
giant global cache file. Eliminating of this unifies the cache structure
and simplifies the overall caching strategies greatly.
Normalized directory names offer protection against looped directory trees
but cost enormous numbers of system calls (stat per file in the hierarchy).
Also, cache file directory name contents are validated each time the
directory is modified, don't re-validate every time the cache file is loaded
with an access and stat call.
Previous policy was to attempt to update the cache in place and bail if that
didn't work. Now, search for the first writable directory and place the
cache file there instead. Furthermore, on startup, search directory list for
valid cache files instead of bailing if the first found cache file wasn't
valid.
