// Prog::SearchOnePass is an efficient implementation of
// regular expression search with submatch tracking for
// what I call "one-pass regular expressions".  (An alternate
// name might be "backtracking-free regular expressions".)
//
// One-pass regular expressions have the property that
// at each input byte during an anchored match, there may be
// multiple alternatives but only one can proceed for any
// given input byte.
//
// For example, the regexp /x*yx*/ is one-pass: you read
// x's until a y, then you read the y, then you keep reading x's.
// At no point do you have to guess what to do or back up
// and try a different guess.
//
// On the other hand, /x*x/ is not one-pass: when you're
// looking at an input "x", it's not clear whether you should
// use it to extend the x* or as the final x.
//
// More examples: /([^ ]*) (.*)/ is one-pass; /(.*) (.*)/ is not.
// /(\d+)-(\d+)/ is one-pass; /(\d+).(\d+)/ is not.
//
// A simple intuition for identifying one-pass regular expressions
// is that it's always immediately obvious when a repetition ends.
// It must also be immediately obvious which branch of an | to take:
//
// /x(y|z)/ is one-pass, but /(xy|xz)/ is not.
//
// The NFA-based search in nfa.cc does some bookkeeping to
// avoid the need for backtracking and its associated exponential blowup.
// But if we have a one-pass regular expression, there is no
// possibility of backtracking, so there is no need for the
// extra bookkeeping.  Hence, this code.
//
// On a one-pass regular expression, the NFA code in nfa.cc
// runs at about 1/20 of the backtracking-based PCRE speed.
// In contrast, the code in this file runs at about the same
// speed as PCRE.
//
// One-pass regular expressions get used a lot when RE is
// used for parsing simple strings, so it pays off to
// notice them and handle them efficiently.
//

// "One-unambiguous regular languages", Information and Computation 142(2).

// The key insight behind this implementation is that the
// non-determinism in an NFA for a one-pass regular expression
// is contained.  To explain what that means, first a
// refresher about what regular expression programs look like
// and how the usual NFA execution runs.
//
// In a regular expression program, only the kInstByteRange
// instruction processes an input byte c and moves on to the
// next byte in the string (it does so if c is in the given range).
// The kInstByteRange instructions correspond to literal characters
// and character classes in the regular expression.
//
// The kInstAlt instructions are used as wiring to connect the
// kInstByteRange instructions together in interesting ways when
// implementing | + and *.
// The kInstAlt instruction forks execution, like a goto that
// jumps to ip->out() and ip->out1() in parallel.  Each of the
// resulting computation paths is called a thread.
//
// The other instructions -- kInstEmptyWidth, kInstMatch, kInstCapture --
// are interesting in their own right but like kInstAlt they don't
// advance the input pointer.  Only kInstByteRange does.
//
// The automaton execution in nfa.cc runs all the possible
// threads of execution in lock-step over the input.  To process
// a particular byte, each thread gets run until it either dies
// or finds a kInstByteRange instruction matching the byte.
// If the latter happens, the thread stops just past the
// kInstByteRange instruction (at ip->out()) and waits for
// the other threads to finish processing the input byte.
// Then, once all the threads have processed that input byte,
// the whole process repeats.  The kInstAlt state instruction
// might create new threads during input processing, but no
// matter what, all the threads stop after a kInstByteRange
// and wait for the other threads to "catch up".
// Running in lock step like this ensures that the NFA reads
// the input string only once.
//
// Each thread maintains its own set of capture registers
// (the string positions at which it executed the kInstCapture
// instructions corresponding to capturing parentheses in the
// regular expression).  Repeated copying of the capture registers
// is the main performance bottleneck in the NFA implementation.
//
// A regular expression program is "one-pass" if, no matter what
// the input string, there is only one thread that makes it
// past a kInstByteRange instruction at each input byte.  This means
// that there is in some sense only one active thread throughout
// the execution.  Other threads might be created during the
// processing of an input byte, but they are ephemeral: only one
// thread is left to start processing the next input byte.
// This is what I meant above when I said the non-determinism
// was "contained".
//
// To execute a one-pass regular expression program, we can build
// a DFA (no non-determinism) that has at most as many states as
// the NFA (compare this to the possibly exponential number of states
// in the general case).  Each state records, for each possible
// input byte, the next state along with the conditions required
// before entering that state -- empty-width flags that must be true
// and capture operations that must be performed.  It also records
// whether a set of conditions required to finish a match at that
// point in the input rather than process the next byte.

// A state in the one-pass NFA (aka DFA) - just an array of actions.
struct OneState;

// A state in the one-pass NFA - just an array of actions indexed
// by the bytemap_[] of the next input byte.  (The bytemap
// maps next input bytes into equivalence classes, to reduce
// the memory footprint.)
struct OneState {
  uint32 matchcond;   // conditions to match right now.
  uint32 action[1];
};

// The uint32 conditions in the action are a combination of
// condition and capture bits and the next state.  The bottom 16 bits
// are the condition and capture bits, and the top 16 are the index of
// the next state.
//
// Bits 0-5 are the empty-width flags from prog.h.
// Bit 6 is kMatchWins, which means the match takes
// priority over moving to next in a first-match search.
// The remaining bits mark capture registers that should
// be set to the current input position.  The capture bits
// start at index 2, since the search loop can take care of
// cap[0], cap[1] (the overall match position).
// That means we can handle up to 5 capturing parens: $1 through $4, plus $0.
// No input position can satisfy both kEmptyWordBoundary
// and kEmptyNonWordBoundary, so we can use that as a sentinel
// instead of needing an extra bit.
