From db6ebb64cc3f817db5d2be7fd2ab38ea5cc6c5b2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: kevans Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2017 17:38:37 +0000 Subject: MFC r317254: bsdgrep: add BSD_GREP_FASTMATCH knob for built-in fastmatch Bugs have been found in the fastmatch implementation as used in bsdgrep. Some have been fixed (r316495) while fixes for others are in review (D10098). In comparison with the fastmatch implementation, Kyle Evans found that: - regex(3)'s performance with literal expressions offers a speed improvement over fastmatch - regex(3)'s performance, both with simple BREs and EREs, seems to be comparable The regex implementation was imported in r226035, and the commit message reports: This is a temporary solution until the whole regex library is not replaced so that BSD grep development can continue and the backported code gets some review and testing. This change only improves scalability slightly, there is no big performance boost yet but several minor bugs have been found and fixed. Introduce a WITH_/WITHOUT_BSD_GREP_FASTMATCH knob to support testing of both approaches.
