This accomplishes two main goals:
- Make it clear who is responsible for prefix-freedom, including how they should do it
- Make it feasible for a `Hasher` that *doesn't* care about Hash-DoS resistance to get better performance by not hashing lengths
This does not change rustc-hash, since that's in an external crate, but that could potentially use it in future.
Fixes#92266
In some `HashStable` impls, we use a cache to avoid re-computing
the same `Fingerprint` from the same structure (e.g. an `AdtDef`).
However, the `StableHashingContext` used can be configured to
perform hashing in different ways (e.g. skipping `Span`s). This
configuration information is not included in the cache key,
which will cause an incorrect `Fingerprint` to be used if
we hash the same structure with different `StableHashingContext`
settings.
To fix this, the configuration settings of `StableHashingContext`
are split out into a separate `HashingControls` struct. This
struct is used as part of the cache key, ensuring that our caches
always produce the correct result for the given settings.
With this in place, we now turn off `Span` hashing during the
entire process of computing the hash included in legacy symbols.
This current has no effect, but will matter when a future PR
starts hashing more `Span`s that we currently skip.
Implement StableHash for BitSet and BitMatrix via Hash
This fixes an issue where bit sets / bit matrices the same word
content but a different domain size would receive the same hash.
Slightly optimize hash map stable hashing
I was profiling some of the `rustc-perf` benchmarks locally and noticed that quite some time is spent inside the stable hash of hashmaps. I tried to use a `SmallVec` instead of a `Vec` there, which helped very slightly.
Then I tried to remove the sorting, which was a bottleneck, and replaced it with insertion into a binary heap. Locally, it yielded nice improvements in instruction counts and RSS in several benchmarks for incremental builds. The implementation could probably be much nicer and possibly extended to other stable hashes, but first I wanted to test the perf impact properly.
Can I ask someone to do a perf run? Thank you!
Particularly for ctfe-stress-4, the hashing of byte slices as part of the
MIR Allocation is quite hot. Previously, we were falling back on byte-by-byte
copying of the slice into the SipHash buffer (64 bytes long) before hashing a 64
byte chunk, and then doing that again and again.
This should hopefully be an improvement for that code.
The PR had some unforseen perf regressions that are not as easy to find.
Revert the PR for now.
This reverts commit 6ae8912a3e, reversing
changes made to 86d6d2b738.
SipHasher128 implements short_write in an endian-independent way, yet
its write_xxx Hasher trait methods undo this endian-independence by byte
swapping the integer inputs on big-endian hardware. StableHasher then
adds endian-independence back by also byte-swapping on big-endian
hardware prior to invoking SipHasher128.
This double swap may have the appearance of being a no-op, but is in
fact by design. In particular, we really do want SipHasher128 to be
platform-dependent, in order to be consistent with the libstd SipHasher.
Try to clarify this intent. Also, add and update a couple of unit tests.
