Reasons: - it adds an O(1) lookup index for accessing NMIPxConfig's addresses. Hence, operations like merge/intersect have now runtime O(n) instead of O(n^2). Arguably, we expect low numbers of addresses in general. For low numbers, the O(n^2) doesn't matter and quite likely in those cases the previous implementation was just fine -- maybe even faster. But the simple case works fine either way. It's important to scale well in the exceptional case. - the tracked objects can be shared between the various NMPI4Config, NMIP6Config instances with NMPlatform and everybody else. - the NMPObject can be treated generically, meaning it enables code to handle both IPv4 and IPv6, or addresses and routes. See for example _nm_ip_config_add_obj(). - I want core to evolve to somewhere where we don't keep copies of NMPlatformIP4Address, et al. instances. Instead they shall all be shared. I hope this will reduce memory consumption (although tracking a reference consumes some memory too). Also, it shortcuts nmp_object_equal() when comparing the same object. Calling nmp_object_equal() on the identical objects would be a common case after the hash function pre-evaluates equality. |
