Throughout the tree there's spurious use of spaces separating ++ and --
operators from their respective operands. Make ++ and -- operator
consistent with the majority of existing uses; discard the spaces.
Rather than passing a pointer to return the result, return it directly
from the function calls.
Also, return the result in native endianess, and let the callers care
about the conversion. For hash tables and bloom filters, we don't care,
but in order to keep MAC addresses and DHCP client IDs stable, we
explicitly convert to LE.
Change the "out" parameter from uint8_t[8] to uint64_t. On architectures which
enforce pointer alignment this fixes crashes when we previously cast an
unaligned array to uint64_t*, and on others this should at least improve
performance as the compiler now aligns these properly.
This also simplifies the code in most cases by getting rid of typecasts. The
only place which we can't change is struct duid's en.id, as that is _packed_
and public API, so we can't enforce alignment of the "id" field and have to
use memcpy instead.
There are more than enough calls doing string manipulations to deserve
its own files, hence do something about it.
This patch also sorts the #include blocks of all files that needed to be
updated, according to the sorting suggestions from CODING_STYLE. Since
pretty much every file needs our string manipulation functions this
effectively means that most files have sorted #include blocks now.
Also touches a few unrelated include files.
Make the API of the new helpers more similar to the old wrapper.
In particular we now return the hash as a byte string to avoid
any endianness problems.
All our hash functions are based on siphash24(), factor out
siphash_init() and siphash24_finalize() and pass the siphash
state to the hash functions rather than the hash key.
This simplifies the hash functions, and in particular makes
composition simpler as calling siphash24_compress() repeatedly
on separate chunks of input has the same effect as first
concatenating the input and then calling siphash23_compress()
on the result.
I'm assuming that it's fine if a _const_ or _pure_ function
calls assert. It is assumed that the assert won't trigger,
and even if it does, it can only trigger on the first call
with a given set of parameters, and we don't care if the
compiler moves the order of calls.
