- Better error reporting for upb::Def setters.
- error reporting for upb::Handlers setters.
- made the start/endmsg handlers a little less special-cased.
Major changes:
- Got rid of all bytestream interfaces in favor of
using regular handlers.
- new Pipeline object represents a upb pipeline, does
bump allocation internally to manage memory.
- proto2 support now can handle extensions.
Many things have changed and been simplified.
The memory-management story for upb_def and upb_handlers
is much more robust; upb_def and upb_handlers should be
fairly stable interfaces now. There is still much work
to do for the runtime component (upb_sink).
Many improvements, too many to mention. One significant
perf regression warrants investigation:
omitfp.parsetoproto2_googlemessage1.upb_jit: 343 -> 252 (-26.53)
plain.parsetoproto2_googlemessage1.upb_jit: 334 -> 251 (-24.85)
25% regression for this benchmark is bad, but since I don't think
there's any fundamental design issue that caused it I'm going to
go ahead with the commit anyway. Can investigate and fix later.
Other benchmarks were neutral or showed slight improvement.
Added a upb_byteregion that tracks a region of
the input buffer; decoders use this instead of
using a upb_bytesrc directly. upb_byteregion
is also used as the way of passing a string to
a upb_handlers callback. This symmetry makes
decoders compose better; if you want to take
a parsed string and decode it as something else,
you can take the string directly from the callback
and feed it as input to another parser.
A commented-out version of a pinning interface
is present; I decline to actually implement it
(and accept its extra complexity) until/unless
it is clear that it is actually a win. But it
is included as a proof-of-concept, to show that
it fits well with the existing interface.
This might actually just bring to light my misuse of the upb_fielddef
functions. The test assertions are fine, but an assertion in upb/upb.h
fails:
./upb/upb.h:181: upb_value_getptr: Assertion `val.type == 33' failed.
