Change multi's book keeping of transfers to no longer use lists, but a special table and bitsets for unsigned int values. `multi-xfers` is the `uint_tbl` where `multi_add_handle()` inserts a new transfer which assigns it a unique identifier `mid`. Use bitsets to keep track of transfers that are in state "process" or "pending" or "msgsent". Use sparse bitsets to replace `conn->easyq` and event handlings tracking of transfers per socket. Instead of pointers, keep the mids involved. Provide base data structures and document them in docs/internal: * `uint_tbl`: a table of transfers with `mid` as lookup key, handing out a mid for adds between 0 - capacity. * `uint_bset`: a bitset keeping unsigned ints from 0 - capacity. * `uint_spbset`: a sparse bitset for keeping a small number of unsigned int values * `uint_hash`: for associating `mid`s with a pointer. This makes the `mid` the recommended way to refer to transfers inside the same multi without risk of running into a UAF. Modifying table and bitsets is safe while iterating over them. Overall memory requirements are lower as with the double linked list apprach. Closes #16761 |
