For messages that have multiple extension ranges, this will improve things
by avoiding repeated work. For messages with a single range, it should
be a wash.
- Sort the list of set extensions once during serialization and reuse the list.
- Break out of the serialization loop as soon as the loop has moved pasted at
accepted range for field ids.
Using NSCoding with a Message that has extensions is risky because
when reloaded, there is no way to provide a registry through the
NSCoding plumbing, so output a warnings to atleast give developers
a hint about the potential issues.
Haven't been able to make a repo case, but this should "fix" the problem
by avoid it completely.
- Move readOnlySemaphore_ into the .m file so it isn't exposed in any
header.
- Move GPBGetObjectIvarWithField() also to go with the new limited
visibility on the readOnlySemaphore_.
Remove unnecessary retain/releases for GPBFieldDescriptors when
creating implementations with blocks. The descriptors do not need
to be memory managed because they are essentially global constructs
that are guaranteed to be around the lifetime of the app.
This should never happen, but if someone is swizzling or do other
hooking of methods, anything is possible, so this seems slighty
safer than they returning NO.
- Ensure extensions resolution/wiring is happening directly on the
messageClass (incase someone is doing odd things our out classes).
- Make the extension message check match the other class checks in
for mergeFrom/isEqual/etc.
Apple recently updated the docs on dispatch_once to point out
that the storage for the dispatch_once_t must be static or global,
but not something that was ever used before as the implementation
doesn't use a memory barrier. So we drop the use and create the
semaphore when needed and use an atomic swap deal with any
threading races.
- Don't prune the extension registry as that can lead to failures when two
threads are racing.
- If adding the method fails, check and see if it already is bound to decide
the return result. Deals with threading races binding the methods.
- If setting/clearing a repeated field/map that was objects, check the class
before checking the autocreator.
- Just to be paranoid, don’t mutate within copy/mutableCopy for the autocreated
classes to ensure there is less chance of issues if someone does something
really crazy threading wise.
- Some more tests for the internal AutocreatedArray/AutocreatedDictionary
classes to ensure things are working as expected.
- Add Xcode 8.2 to the full_mac_build.sh supported list.
There was a twist code path (that some times showed up due to what happened to
be in memory in failure cases), that would cast a bogus wire type into the
enum, and then fall through switch statements.
Resolve this by validating all wire types when parsing tags and throwing the
error at that point so it can't enter the system.
As added safety, stick in a few asserts for apis that get passed tags to ensure
they also are only seeing valid data.
Bonus: Tweak the parsing loop to skip some work when we get the end marker
(zero tag) instead of still looping through all the fields.
Add more context to GPBCodedInputStream failures.
Have GPBMessage parsing apis extract out the GPBCodedInputStream information and expose it.
Update HeaderDocs with pointers to all error domains/codes.
Expand the unittests to cover the full set of errors reported.
Fixes https://github.com/google/protobuf/issues/1618
Working on https://github.com/google/protobuf/issues/1599, specifically:
- Turn on more warnings that the Xcode UI calls out with individual controls.
- Manually add:
-Wundef
-Wswitch-enum
- Manually add and then diable in the unittests because of XCTest's headers:
-Wreserved-id-macro
-Wdocumentation-unknown-command
- Manually add -Wdirect-ivar-access, but disable it for the unittests and in
the library code (via #pragmas to suppress it). This is done so proto users
can enable the warning.
Both methods weren't checking the has_bits (where the bools are stored), so
it resulted in invalid results.
Add a test that should shake out something like this in the future also.
This will lower the amount of dispatch_semaphores created per Message when the
full object tree isn't walked in a way that would require them to be created.
Uses a dispatch_once_t for one time init of the dispatch_semaphore.
NOTE: This is a binary breaking change as structure sizes have changed size
and/or order.
- Drop capturing field options, no other options were captured and other mobile
targeted languages don't try to capture this sort information (saved 8
bytes for every field defined (in static data and again in field descriptor
instance size data).
- No longer generate/compile in the messages/enums in descriptor.proto. If
developers need it, they should generate it and compile it in. Reduced the
overhead of the core library.
- Compute the number of has_bits actually needs to avoid over reserving.
- Let the boolean single fields store via a has_bit to avoid storage, makes
the common cases of the instance size smaller.
- Reorder some flags and down size the enums to contain the bits needed.
- Reorder the items in the structures to manually ensure they are are packed
better (especially when generating 64bit code - 8 bytes for every field,
16 bytes for every extension, instance sizes 8 bytes also).
- Split off the structure initialization so when the default is zero, the
generated static storage doesn't need to reserve the space. This is batched
at the message level, so all the fields for the message have to have zero
defaults to get the saves. By definition all proto3 syntax files fall into
this case but it also saves space for the proto2 that use the standard
defaults. (saves 8 bytes of static data for every field that had a zero
default)
- Don't track the enums defined by a message. Nothing in the runtime needs it
and it was just generation and runtime overhead. (saves 8 bytes per enum)
- Ensure EnumDescriptors are started up threadsafe in all cases.
- Split some of the Descriptor initialization into multiple methods so the
generated code isn't padded with lots of zero/nil args.
- Change how oneof info is feed to the runtime enabling us to generate less
static data (8 bytes saved per oneof for 64bit).
- Change how enum value informat is capture to pack the data and only decode
it if it ends up being needed. Avoids padding issues causing bloat of 64bit,
and removes the needs for extra pointers in addition to the data (just the
data and one pointer now).
- Convert most of the core library headers over to HeaderDoc format.
- Switch the generated comments over to HeaderDoc.
- Create GPBCodedOutputStream_PackagePrivate and move some things into there
that should be more internal.
Apple engineers have pointed out that OSSpinLocks are vulnerable to live locking
on iOS in cases of priority inversion:

- Use a dispatch_semaphore_t within the extension registry.
- Use a dispatch_semaphore_t for protecting autocreation within messages.
- Drop the custom/internal GPBString class since we don't have really good
numbers to judge the locking replacements and it isn't required. We can
always bring it back with real data in the future.
- Add more to the ObjC dir readme.
- Merge the ExtensionField and ExtensionDescriptor to reduce overhead.
- Fix an initialization race.
- Clean up the Xcode schemes.
- Remove the class/enum filter.
- Remove some forced inline that were bloating things without proof of performance wins.
- Rename some internal types to avoid conflicts with the well know types protos.
- Drop the use of ApplyFunctions to the compiler/optimizer can do what it wants.
- Better document some possible future improvements.
- Add missing support for parsing repeated primitive fields in packed or unpacked forms.
- Improve -hash.
- Add *Count for repeated and map<> fields to avoid auto create when checking for them being set.
- Style fixups in the code.
- map<> serialization fixes and more tests.
- Autocreation of map<> fields (to match repeated fields).
- @@protoc_insertion_point(global_scope|imports).
- Fixup proto2 syntax extension support.
- Move all startup code to +initialize so it happen on class usage and not app startup.
- Have generated headers use forward declarations and move imports into generated code, reduces what is need at compile time to speed up compiled and avoid pointless rippling of rebuilds.
