This turned into a sort of system-wide refactor based on learned
knowledge of what we can do with lfsr_attr_t.
The big changes:
- Reverted LFSR_ATTR to mainly take lfsr_data_t again, keeping
lfsr_data_t as the default data representation in the codebase.
Now that we know
LFSR_ATTR_CAT_ still provides concatenation mechanics, and LFSR_ATTR_
provides a way to edit in-flight lfsr_attr_ts.
- Dropped lfsr_cat_t, replaced with explicit const void* + uint16_t,
tried to limit to low-level operations and prefer passing aroud
lfsr_attr_t and lfsr_data_t at a high-level.
Note this cat + cat_count pair is quite similar to the common attrs +
attr_count and buffer + size arguments.
- Adopted lfsr_attr_t more in mid-level functions, lfsr_rbyd_appendattr,
lfsr_rbyd_appendcompactattr, lfsr_file_carve, etc. This is a bit more
ergonomical, allows for use of LFSR_ATTR* macros, and in theory might
even save a bit of stack.
Unfortunately this seems to have resulted in a net hit to code cost,
though I still think it's worth it for the internal ergonomics:
code stack
before: 33652 2624
after: 33780 (+0.4%) 2640 (+0.4%)
Investigating further suggests this may just be the result of compiler
noise and changes to argument placement. lfsr_attr_t does touch a lot of
code...
It's interesting to note the adoption of lfsr_attr_t in
lfsr_rbyd_appendattr* and friends prevents their transformation into
.isra functions, though this doesn't seem to impact code cost too much:
