From dec075754960dd85972ce5170df76e862f966132 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jessica Clarke Date: Wed, 31 Mar 2021 11:12:39 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] bpo-43179: Generalise alignment for optimised string routines (GH-24624) * Remove m68k-specific hack from ascii_decode On m68k, alignments of primitives is more relaxed, with 4-byte and 8-byte types only requiring 2-byte alignment, thus using sizeof(size_t) does not work. Instead, use the portable alternative. Note that this is a minimal fix that only relaxes the assertion and the condition for when to use the optimised version remains overly strict. Such issues will be fixed tree-wide in the next commit. NB: In C11 we could use _Alignof(size_t) instead, but for compatibility we use autoconf. * Optimise string routines for architectures with non-natural alignment C only requires that sizeof(x) is a multiple of alignof(x), not that the two are equal. Thus anywhere where we optimise based on alignment we should be using alignof(x) not sizeof(x). This is more annoying than it would be in C11 where we could just use _Alignof(x) (and alignof(x) in C++11), but since we still require only C99 we must plumb the information all the way from autoconf through the various typedefs and defines. --- Objects/bytes_methods.c | 5 +-- Objects/stringlib/codecs.h | 11 ++--- Objects/stringlib/find_max_char.h | 6 +-- Objects/unicodeobject.c | 20 +++------ PC/pyconfig.h | 3 ++ configure | 72 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- configure.ac | 4 +- pyconfig.h.in | 6 +++ 8 files changed, 96 insertions(+), 31 deletions(-) diff --git a/Objects/bytes_methods.c b/Objects/bytes_methods.c index 1512086e613..994fb8a73c6 100644 --- a/Objects/bytes_methods.c +++ b/Objects/bytes_methods.c @@ -115,15 +115,14 @@ _Py_bytes_isascii(const char *cptr, Py_ssize_t len) { const char *p = cptr; const char *end = p + len; - const char *aligned_end = (const char *) _Py_ALIGN_DOWN(end, SIZEOF_SIZE_T); while (p < end) { /* Fast path, see in STRINGLIB(utf8_decode) in stringlib/codecs.h for an explanation. */ - if (_Py_IS_ALIGNED(p, SIZEOF_SIZE_T)) { + if (_Py_IS_ALIGNED(p, ALIGNOF_SIZE_T)) { /* Help allocation */ const char *_p = p; - while (_p < aligned_end) { + while (_p + SIZEOF_SIZE_T <= end) { size_t value = *(const size_t *) _p; if (value & ASCII_CHAR_MASK) { Py_RETURN_FALSE; diff --git a/Objects/stringlib/codecs.h b/Objects/stringlib/codecs.h index b6ca404b1a2..b17cda18f54 100644 --- a/Objects/stringlib/codecs.h +++ b/Objects/stringlib/codecs.h @@ -26,7 +26,6 @@ STRINGLIB(utf8_decode)(const char **inptr, const char *end, { Py_UCS4 ch; const char *s = *inptr; - const char *aligned_end = (const char *) _Py_ALIGN_DOWN(end, SIZEOF_SIZE_T); STRINGLIB_CHAR *p = dest + *outpos; while (s < end) { @@ -40,11 +39,11 @@ STRINGLIB(utf8_decode)(const char **inptr, const char *end, First, check if we can do an aligned read, as most CPUs have a penalty for unaligned reads. */ - if (_Py_IS_ALIGNED(s, SIZEOF_SIZE_T)) { + if (_Py_IS_ALIGNED(s, ALIGNOF_SIZE_T)) { /* Help register allocation */ const char *_s = s; STRINGLIB_CHAR *_p = p; - while (_s < aligned_end) { + while (_s + SIZEOF_SIZE_T <= end) { /* Read a whole size_t at a time (either 4 or 8 bytes), and do a fast unrolled copy if it only contains ASCII characters. */ @@ -496,8 +495,6 @@ STRINGLIB(utf16_decode)(const unsigned char **inptr, const unsigned char *e, int native_ordering) { Py_UCS4 ch; - const unsigned char *aligned_end = - (const unsigned char *) _Py_ALIGN_DOWN(e, SIZEOF_LONG); const unsigned char *q = *inptr; STRINGLIB_CHAR *p = dest + *outpos; /* Offsets from q for retrieving byte pairs in the right order. */ @@ -512,10 +509,10 @@ STRINGLIB(utf16_decode)(const unsigned char **inptr, const unsigned char *e, Py_UCS4 ch2; /* First check for possible aligned read of a C 'long'.
