divsufsort

This crate contains a Rust handmade port of Yuta Mori's libdivsufsort, as found on:

• https://github.com/y-256/libdivsufsort/tree/5f60d6f026c30fb4ac296f696b3c8b0eb71bd428

Changes

The main changes from the C codebase are as follows.

Instead of passing pointers to T (the original text) and SA (the suffix array), slices and indices are passed instead. This sometimes involves adding more parameters to functions (like tr_heapsort).

Some macros (for stacks, used in sssort and trsort) have been replaced with proper Rust types. The SAPtr type is used to represent an index into SA. A/B/B* access has also been translated from C macros to Rust (inlined) functions.

Cross-checking is only built when the crosscheck feature is enabled. It is not intended for general use, only for debugging the divsufsort crate.

Authors

The original C code was written by Yuta Mori.

The port was done by hand, by Amos Wenger.
