[analyzer][NFC] Consolidate the inner representation of CallDescriptions
ClosedPublic

Authored by steakhal on Nov 10 2021, 10:46 AM.

Details

Summary

CallDescriptions have a RequiredArgs and RequiredParams members,
but they are of different types, unsigned and size_t respectively.
In the patch I use only unsigned for both, that should be large enough
anyway.

In the patch, I also avoid the use of the smart less-than operator.

template <typename T>
constexpr bool operator<=(const Optional<T> &X, const T &Y);

Which would check if the optional has a value and compare the data
only after. I found it surprising, thus I think we are better off
without it.

Nice cleanup!

While you have a large stack, some of these changes should be relatively independent. I'd recommend committing those regardless of the status of the rest of the stack.

Using linear history is way more convenient for me.
I will split the stack if we don't reach a consensus on the stack though.

In the patch, I also avoid the use of the smart less-than operator.

It's not obvious for me how you avoid it. Could you please elaborate?

What about using a common type alias for these two?

You can see in the diff that in some cases I'm using the dereference operator of the Optional in the new code, whereas previously we did not.
It was because the operator== and operator<= did the nullness check of the Optional within their operator implementation.
As you can see, one does not regularly see such a thing, so we are better off with that IMO.

We could have some alias type, but I would rather choose MaybeCount or MaybeInt.
Which would you prefer?

Okay, thanks, makes sense.

I prefer MaybeCount, thanks for asking.

What about MaybeUInt? On second thought, MaybeCount might be even better.
