             Bug #: 15066
           Summary: regular expressions: clean up and integrate re2c code
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: runtime
        AssignedTo: systemtap@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: smakarov@redhat.com
    Classification: Unclassified


PR11334 added a bunch of code from the re2c project, which is currently
secluded under re2c-migrate/, on account of being quirky and still in need to
massive cleanup. It needs to be cleaned up and rewritten to match the coding
standards of the rest of systemtap, before the files are moved into the root of
the repository. 

The separate testsuite under re2c-migrate/ also needs to be integrated into the
main systemtap testsuite.

On the other hand, it may not be prudent to go all the way in rewriting the
re2c code. The extent of cleanup that is warranted needs to be decided.

--- Comment #2 from Serguei Makarov <smakarov at redhat dot com> ---
Okay, pushed a substantial rewrite that implements the DFA algorithm in
systemtap's coding style (as opposed to re2c's wildly-clashing style), and
substantially reduces the size of the code.
