The new hashing functions is based on the Donald E. Knuth's Multiplicative hashing, suggested in his book "The Art of Computer Programming". This improves the performance, but also removes the restrictions resulting from using the Paul Hsieh's super fast hash, published under the terms of the GPL 2.0 license. Paul Hsieh's hash function, defined in trace-hash-local.h, is still used in trace-graph.c, trace-plot.c, trace-plot-cpu.c and trace-plot-task.c. Because trace-hash-local.h is no longer included in trace-filter-hash.h, it has to be included explicitly in these four source files. Signed-off-by: Yordan Karadzhov (VMware) <y.karadz@xxxxxxxxx> ---I've applied these but haven't pushed them out yet. Which files need to be changed from GPL to LGPL? Now that we have removed the GPL code from the filter hash.
I would like to have trace-filter-hash.h and trace-filter-hash.c changed to LGPL. Also I would like trace-filter-hash.o to became part of libtracecmd and respectively trace-filter-hash.h to be moved to /include/trace-cmd/
Thank you very much! Yordan
