# Module 'cmpcache'
#
# Efficiently compare files, boolean outcome only (equal / not equal).
#
# Tricks (used in this order):
# - Use the statcache module to avoid statting files more than once
# - Files with identical type, size & mtime are assumed to be clones
# - Files with different type or size cannot be identical
# - We keep a cache of outcomes of earlier comparisons
# - We don't fork a process to run 'cmp' but read the files ourselves
#
# XXX There is a dependency on constants in <sys/stat.h> here.

import statcache
# The cache.
#
cache = {}
# Compare two files, use the cache if possible.
# May raise posix.error if a stat or open of either fails.
#

# Return 1 for identical files, 0 for different.
# Raise exceptions if either file could not be statted, read, etc.
s1, s2 = sig(statcache.stat(f1)), sig(statcache.stat(f2))
if s1[0] <> 8 or s2[0] <> 8: # XXX 8 is S_IFREG in <sys/stat.h>
# Either is a not a plain file -- always report as different
return 0
if s1 = s2:
# type, size & mtime match -- report same
return 1
if s1[:2] <> s2[:2]: # Types or sizes differ, don't bother
# types or sizes differ -- report different
return 0
# same type and size -- look in the cache
key = f1 + ' ' + f2
if cache.has_key(key):
cs1, cs2, outcome = cache[key]
# cache hit
if s1 = cs1 and s2 = cs2:
# cached signatures match

# stale cached signature(s)
# really compare

# Return signature (i.e., type, size, mtime) from raw stat data.
