libbb: code shrink and speed up find_applet_by_name()
find_applet_by_name() determines the appropriate range of applet indices to check for the given name and performs a linear search in applet_names[]. Revise the code so the index of the upper bound of the range, 'max', isn't calculated. Instead check the value of the first non-matching character to see if we've reached the end of the range. This new code speeds up the time to find a valid applet name by 6% and halves the time to detect that a given name is invalid. The average time to detect an invalid name is now the same as for a valid one. function old new delta find_applet_by_name 155 133 -22 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-22) Total: -22 bytes Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko <vda.linux@googlemail.com>
