/* qsort.c * (c) 1998 Gareth McCaughan * * This is a drop-in replacement for the C library's |qsort()| routine. * * Features: * - Median-of-three pivoting (and more) * - Truncation and final polishing by a single insertion sort * - Early truncation when no swaps needed in pivoting step * - Explicit recursion, guaranteed not to overflow * - A few little wrinkles stolen from the GNU |qsort()|. * - separate code for non-aligned / aligned / word-size objects * * This code may be reproduced freely provided * - this file is retained unaltered apart from minor * changes for portability and efficiency * - no changes are made to this comment * - any changes that *are* made are clearly flagged * - the _ID string below is altered by inserting, after * the date, the string " altered" followed at your option * by other material. (Exceptions: you may change the name * of the exported routine without changing the ID string. * You may change the values of the macros TRUNC_* and * PIVOT_THRESHOLD without changing the ID string, provided * they remain constants with TRUNC_nonaligned, TRUNC_aligned * and TRUNC_words/WORD_BYTES between 8 and 24, and * PIVOT_THRESHOLD between 32 and 200.) * * You may use it in anything you like; you may make money * out of it; you may distribute it in object form or as * part of an executable without including source code; * you don't have to credit me. (But it would be nice if * you did.) * * If you find problems with this code, or find ways of * making it significantly faster, please let me know! * My e-mail address, valid as of early 1998 and certainly * OK for at least the next 18 months, is * gjm11@dpmms.cam.ac.uk * Thanks! * * Gareth McCaughan Peterhouse Cambridge 1998 */ /* #include <assert.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> */ #include "SDL_stdlib.h" #include "SDL_string.h" #define assert(X) #define malloc SDL_malloc #define free SDL_free #define memcpy SDL_memcpy #define memmove SDL_memmove #define qsort SDL_qsort #ifndef HAVE_QSORT static char _ID[]="<qsort.c gjm 1.12 1998-03-19>"; /* How many bytes are there per word?

When we finish partitioning the array into "low" * and "high", we forget entirely about short subarrays, * because they'll be done later by insertion sort. * Doing lots of little insertion sorts might be a win * on large datasets for locality-of-reference reasons, * but it makes the code much nastier and increases * bookkeeping overhead. * 2. We always save the shorter and get to work on the * longer. This guarantees that every time we push * an item onto the stack its size is <= 1/2 of that * of its parent; so the stack can't need more than * log_2(max-array-size) entries. * 3. We choose a pivot by looking at the first, last * and middle elements. We arrange them into order * because it's easy to do that in conjunction with * choosing the pivot, and it makes things a little * easier in the partitioning step. Anyway, the pivot * is the middle of these three. It's still possible * to construct datasets where the algorithm takes * time of order n^2, but it simply never happens in * practice. * 3' Newsflash: On further investigation I find that * it's easy to construct datasets where median-of-3 * simply isn't good enough. So on large-ish subarrays * we do a more sophisticated pivoting: we take three * sets of 3 elements, find their medians, and then * take the median of those. * 4. We copy the pivot element to a separate place * because that way we can always do our comparisons * directly against a pointer to that separate place, * and don't have to wonder "did we move the pivot * element?". This makes the inner loop better. * 5. It's possible to make the pivoting even more * reliable by looking at more candidates when n * is larger. (Taking this to its logical conclusion * results in a variant of quicksort that doesn't * have that n^2 worst case.) However, the overhead * from the extra bookkeeping means that it's just * not worth while. * 6. This is pretty clean and portable code. Here are * all the potential portability pitfalls and problems * I know of: * - In one place (the insertion sort) I construct * a pointer that points just past the end of the * supplied array, and assume that (a) it won't * compare equal to any pointer within the array, * and (b) it will compare equal to a pointer * obtained by stepping off the end of the array. * These might fail on some segmented architectures. * - I assume that there are 8 bits in a |char| when * computing the size of stack needed. This would * fail on machines with 9-bit or 16-bit bytes. * - I assume that if |((int)base&(sizeof(int)-1))==0| * and |(size&(sizeof(int)-1))==0| then it's safe to * get at array elements via |int*|s, and that if * actually |size==sizeof(int)| as well then it's * safe to treat the elements as |int|s. This might * fail on systems that convert pointers to integers * in non-standard ways. * - I assume that |8*sizeof(size_t)<=INT_MAX|. This * would be false on a machine with 8-bit |char|s, * 16-bit |int|s and 4096-bit |size_t|s. :-) */ /* The recursion logic is the same in each case: */ #define Recurse(Trunc) \ { size_t l=last-ffirst,r=llast-first; \ if (l<Trunc) { \ if (r>=Trunc) doRight \ else pop \ } \ else if (l<=r) { pushLeft; doRight } \ else if (r>=Trunc) { pushRight; doLeft }\ else doLeft \ } /* and so is the pivoting logic: */ #define Pivot(swapper,sz) \ if ((size_t)(last-first)>PIVOT_THRESHOLD*sz) mid=pivot_big(first,mid,last,sz,compare);\ else { \ if (compare(first,mid)<0) { \ if (compare(mid,last)>0) { \ swapper(mid,last); \ if (compare(first,mid)>0) swapper(first,mid);\ } \ } \ else { \ if (compare(mid,last)>0) swapper(first,last)\ else { \ swapper(first,mid); \ if (compare(mid,last)>0) swapper(mid,last);\ } \ } \ first+=sz; last-=sz; \ } #ifdef DEBUG_QSORT #include <stdio.h> #endif /* and so is the partitioning logic: */ #define Partition(swapper,sz) { \ int swapped=0; \ do { \ while (compare(first,pivot)<0) first+=sz; \ while (compare(pivot,last)<0) last-=sz; \ if (first<last) { \ swapper(first,last); swapped=1; \ first+=sz; last-=sz; } \ else if (first==last) { first+=sz; last-=sz; break; }\ } while (first<=last); \ if (!swapped) pop \ } /* and so is the pre-insertion-sort operation of putting * the smallest element into place as a sentinel. * Doing this makes the inner loop nicer.
