-- e54b9c7bbb0c58475676c268e2e19c69f4bce48a by Jorg Brown <jorg@google.com>: Tweak ABSL_PREDICT_TRUE slightly, for better code on some platforms and/or optimization levels. "false || (x)" is more verbose than "!!(x)", but ultimately more efficient. For example, given this code: void InitIfNecessary() { if (ABSL_PREDICT_TRUE(NeedsInit())) { SlowInitIfNecessary(); } } Clang with default optimization level will produce: Before this CL After this CL InitIfNecessary: InitIfNecessary: push rbp push rbp mov rbp, rsp mov rbp, rsp call NeedsInit call NeedsInit xor al, -1 xor al, -1 test al, 1 test al, 1 jne .LBB2_1 jne .LBB3_1 jmp .LBB2_2 jmp .LBB3_2 .LBB2_1: .LBB3_1: call SlowInitIfNecessary call SlowInitIfNecessary .LBB2_2: .LBB3_2: pop rbp pop rbp ret ret PiperOrigin-RevId: 276401386 -- 0a3c4dfd8342bf2b1b11a87f1c662c883f73cab7 by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>: Fix comment nit: sem_open => sem_init. The code calls sem_init, not sem_open, to initialize an unnamed semaphore. (sem_open creates or opens a named semaphore.) PiperOrigin-RevId: 276344072 -- b36a664e9459057509a90e83d3482e1d3a4c44c7 by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>: Fix typo in flat_hash_map.h: exchaged -> exchanged PiperOrigin-RevId: 276295792 -- 7bbd8d18276eb110c8335743e35fceb662ddf3d6 by Samuel Benzaquen <sbenza@google.com>: Add assertions to verify use of iterators. PiperOrigin-RevId: 276283300 -- 677398a8ffcb1f59182cffe57a4fe7ff147a0404 by Laramie Leavitt <lar@google.com>: Migrate distribution_impl.h/cc to generate_real.h/cc. Combine the methods RandU64To<Float,Double> into a single method: GenerateRealFromBits(). Remove rejection sampling from absl::uniform_real_distribution. PiperOrigin-RevId: 276158675 -- c60c9d11d24b0c546329d998e78e15a84b3153f5 by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>: Internal change PiperOrigin-RevId: 276126962 -- 4c840cab6a8d86efa29b397cafaf7520eece68cc by Andy Soffer <asoffer@google.com>: Update CMakeLists.txt to address https://github.com/abseil/abseil-cpp/issues/365. This does not cover every platform, but it does at least address the first-order issue of assuming gcc implies x86.
