For example, + if `/usr/share/man/man5/inetd.conf.5.gz` was a symlink to + `/usr/share/man/man8/inetd.8.gz` and had `NAME` entries for both `inetd` + and `inetd.conf`, then if `inetd.8.gz` was scanned first we would + include a `WHATIS_MAN` entry in section 8 for `inetd.conf`, while if + `inetd.conf.5.gz` was scanned first we'd skip that due to hitting the + already-exists check when scanning `inetd.8.gz`. + + This was originally a performance optimization.

However, a better rule turns out to be to + pick the last entry in the trace that has the same section and extension + as the starting page. This is already guaranteed to have at least as + good an ID as the starting page, and since whatis pointers don't include + the target section and extension we need to ensure that they don't cross + sections/extensions; otherwise we just end up with database entries that + man(1) refuses to use, which isn't particularly useful. + + * src/descriptions_store.c (store_descriptions): Parse and cache all the + filenames in the trace at the start.

Cache the return value in a hash map (indexed by a composite + key consisting of `name` and `flags`), and return cached values where + possible rather than repeating the same work. Update all callers to + reflect the new signature. + * src/ult_src.h (struct ult_value): New structure. + (ult_src): Update prototype. + + * src/check_mandirs.c (test_manfile): Simplify `ult_src` calling + arrangements now that repeated calls with the same `name` and `flags` + arguments are cheap. At the moment this may end up doing a little more + work in some rare cases (links to already-scanned pages with `.so` + links), but that doesn't seem to be very significant at the moment, and + caching could be improved inside `ult_src` if it proves to be a problem. + * src/descriptions_store.c (store_descriptions): `trace` is now always + set.

Because purging deleted pages + from the database opened and closed the database in a separate phase + before the main phase of looking for updated manual pages, and because + the main phase relies on comparing against the mtime of the database to + find changed files, I had to arrange to restore the original mtime at + the end of the purge phase in order to avoid confusing the main phase + into being a no-op. However, in some cases (perhaps due to other bugs, + but nevertheless), it's possible for the purge phase to find work to do + without the main phase ever finding any modified directories, which + meant that the net effect of mandb would be to modify its database + without changing its mtime.
