pcre2: Add JIT-support for select architectures in PCRE2
- This commit adds a config-option for JIT in libpcre2. According to research published on https://rust-leipzig.github.io/regex/2017/03/28/comparison-of-regex-engines/ this should give a 10x performance increase on JIT operations which can be desireable for high performance Apache mod_rewrite or haproxy reqrep operations. This option is available on all officially supported architecutres which are listed on https://pcre.org/current/doc/html/pcre2jit.html#SEC2. Furthermore, it is enabled by default on the following architectures: arm, i686, x86_64. Signed-off-by: Christian Lachner <gladiac@gmail.com>

Enable JIT (Just-In-Time) compiler support.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Just-in-time compiling is a heavyweight optimization that can greatly
|
||||||
|
speed up pattern matching. However, it comes at the cost of extra
|
||||||
|
processing before the match is performed, so it is of most benefit when
|
||||||
|
the same pattern is going to be matched many times. This does not
|
||||||
|
necessarily mean many calls of a matching function; if the pattern is
|
||||||
|
not anchored, matching attempts may take place many times at various
|
||||||
|
positions in the subject, even for a single call. Therefore, if the
|
||||||
|
subject string is very long, it may still pay to use JIT even for
|
||||||
|
one-off matches. JIT support is available for all of the 8-bit, 16-bit
|
||||||
|
and 32-bit PCRE2 libraries and adds about 100KB to the resulting
|
||||||
|
libpcre2.so. JIT support applies only to the traditional Perl-compatible
|
||||||
|
matching function. It does not apply when the DFA matching function is
|
||||||
|
being used.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Enabling this option can give an about 10x performance increase on JIT
|
||||||
|
operations. It can be desireable for e.g. high performance Apache
|
||||||
|
mod_rewrite or HA-Proxy reqrep operations.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
However, JIT should _only_ be enabled on architectures that are supported.
|
||||||
|
Enabling JIT on unsupported platforms will result in a compilation
|
||||||
|
failure. A list of supported architectures can be found here:
