 *
 *   rx:     the regex to match against
 *   sv:     the SV being matched: only used for utf8 flag; the string
 *           itself is accessed via the pointers below. Note that on
 *           something like an overloaded SV, SvPOK(sv) may be false
 *           and the string pointers may point to something unrelated to
 *           the SV itself.
 *   strbeg: real beginning of string
 *   strpos: the point in the string at which to begin matching
 *   strend: pointer to the byte following the last char of the string
 *   flags   currently unused; set to 0
 *   data:   currently unused; set to NULL
 *
 * The basic idea of re_intuit_start() is to use some known information
 * about the pattern, namely:
 *
 *   a) the longest known anchored substring (i.e. one that's at a
 *      constant offset from the beginning of the pattern; but not
 *      necessarily at a fixed offset from the beginning of the
 *      string);
 *   b) the longest floating substring (i.e. one that's not at a constant
 *      offset from the beginning of the pattern);
 *   c) Whether the pattern is anchored to the string; either
 *      an absolute anchor: /^../, or anchored to \n: /^.../m,
 *      or anchored to pos(): /\G/;
 *   d) A start class: a real or synthetic character class which
 *      represents which characters are legal at the start of the pattern;
 *
 * to either quickly reject the match, or to find the earliest position
 * within the string at which the pattern might match, thus avoiding
 * running the full NFA engine at those earlier locations, only to
 * eventually fail and retry further along.
 *
 * Returns NULL if the pattern can't match, or returns the address within
 * the string which is the earliest place the match could occur.
 *
 * The longest of the anchored and floating substrings is called 'check'
 * and is checked first. The other is called 'other' and is checked
 * second. The 'other' substring may not be present.  For example,
 *
 *    /(abc|xyz)ABC\d{0,3}DEFG/
 *
 * will have
 *
 *   check substr (float)    = "DEFG", offset 6..9 chars
 *   other substr (anchored) = "ABC",  offset 3..3 chars
 *   stclass = [ax]
 *
 * Be aware that during the course of this function, sometimes 'anchored'
 * refers to a substring being anchored relative to the start of the
 * pattern, and sometimes to the pattern itself being anchored relative to
 * the string. For example:
 *
 *   /\dabc/:   "abc" is anchored to the pattern;
 *   /^\dabc/:  "abc" is anchored to the pattern and the string;
 *   /\d+abc/:  "abc" is anchored to neither the pattern nor the string;
 *   /^\d+abc/: "abc" is anchored to neither the pattern nor the string,
 *                    but the pattern is anchored to the string.

/* The four macros below are slightly different versions of the same logic.

 * The first is for /a and /aa when the target string is UTF-8.  This can only
 * match ascii, but it must advance based on UTF-8.   The other three handle
 * the non-UTF-8 and the more generic UTF-8 cases.   In all four, we are
 * looking for the boundary (or non-boundary) between a word and non-word
 * character.  The utf8 and non-utf8 cases have the same logic, but the details
 * must be different.  Find the "wordness" of the character just prior to this
 * one, and compare it with the wordness of this one.  If they differ, we have
 * a boundary.  At the beginning of the string, pretend that the previous
 * character was a new-line.
 *
 * All these macros uncleanly have side-effects with each other and outside
 * variables.  So far it's been too much trouble to clean-up
 *
 * TEST_NON_UTF8 is the macro or function to call to test if its byte input is
 *               a word character or not.
 * IF_SUCCESS    is code to do if it finds that we are at a boundary between
 *               word/non-word
 * IF_FAIL       is code to do if we aren't at a boundary between word/non-word
 *
 * Exactly one of the two IF_FOO parameters is a no-op, depending on whether we
 * are looking for a boundary or for a non-boundary.  If we are looking for a
 * boundary, we want IF_FAIL to be the no-op, and for IF_SUCCESS to go out and
 * see if this tentative match actually works, and if so, to quit the loop
 * here.  And vice-versa if we are looking for a non-boundary.
 *
 * 'tmp' below in the next four macros in the REXEC_FBC_UTF8_SCAN and
 * REXEC_FBC_UTF8_SCAN loops is a loop invariant, a bool giving the return of
 * TEST_NON_UTF8(s-1).  To see this, note that that's what it is defined to be
 * at entry to the loop, and to get to the IF_FAIL branch, tmp must equal
 * TEST_NON_UTF8(s), and in the opposite branch, IF_SUCCESS, tmp is that
 * complement.  But in that branch we complement tmp, meaning that at the
 * bottom of the loop tmp is always going to be equal to TEST_NON_UTF8(s),
 * which means at the top of the loop in the next iteration, it is

               (and we have not encountered an accepting state) we scan forward

               AC matching is basically that of trie matching, except that when
               we encounter a failing transition, we fall back to the current
               states "fail state", and try the current char again, a process
               we repeat until we reach the root state, state 1, or a legal
               transition. If we fail on the root state then we can either
               terminate if we have reached an accepting state previously, or
               restart the entire process from the beginning if we have not.

     * beginning of B, <text_node>.  It is also used in regrepeat() where we
     * have 'A*', for arbitrary 'A'.  This sets up criteria to more efficiently
     * determine where the span of 'A's stop.
     *
     * If <text_node> is of type EXACT, there is only one possible character
     * that can match its first character, and so the situation is quite
     * simple.  But things can get much more complicated if folding is
     * involved.  It may be that the first character of an EXACTFish node
     * doesn't participate in any possible fold, e.g., punctuation, so it can
     * be matched only by itself.  The vast majority of characters that are in
     * folds match just two things, their lower and upper-case equivalents.
     * But not all are like that; some have multiple possible matches, or match
     * sequences of more than one character.  This function sorts all that out.
     *
     * It returns information about all possibilities of what the first
     * character(s) of <text_node> could look like.  Again, if <text_node> is a
     * plain EXACT node, that's just the actual first bytes of the first
     * character; but otherwise it is the bytes, that when masked, match all
     * possible combinations of all the initial bytes of all the characters
     * that could match, folded.  (Actually, this is a slight over promise.  It
     * handles only up to the initial 5 bytes, which is enough for all Unicode
     * characters, but not for all non-Unicode ones.)
     *
     * Here's an example to clarify.  Suppose the first character of
     * <text_node> is the letter 'C', and we are under /i matching.  That means
     * 'c' also matches.  The representations of these two characters differ in
     * just one bit, so the mask would be a zero in that position and ones in
     * the other 7.  And the returned string would be the AND of these two
     * characters, and would be one byte long, since these characters are each
     * a single byte.  ANDing the target <text_node> with this mask will yield
     * the returned string if and only if <text_node> begins with one of these
     * two characters.  So, the function would also return that the definitive
     * length matched is 1 byte.
     *
     * Now, suppose instead of the letter 'C',  <text_node> begins with the
     * letter 'F'.  The situation is much more complicated because there are
     * various ligatures such as LATIN SMALL LIGATURE FF, whose fold also
     * begins with 'f', and hence could match.  We add these into the returned
     * string and mask, but the result isn't definitive; the caller has to
     * check further if its AND and compare pass.  But the failure of that
     * compare will quickly rule out most possible inputs.
     *
     * Much of this could be done in regcomp.c at compile time, except for
     * locale-dependent, and UTF-8 target dependent data.  Extra data fields
     * could be used for one or the other eventualities.
     *
     * If this function determines that no possible character in the target
     * string can match, it returns FALSE; otherwise TRUE.  (The FALSE
     * situation occurs if the first character in <text_node> requires UTF-8 to
     * represent, and the target string isn't in UTF-8.)
     *
     * Some analysis is in GH #18414, located at the time of this writing at:
     * https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/18414

/*

regmatch() - main matching routine

This is basically one big switch statement in a loop. We execute an op,
set 'next' to point the next op, and continue. If we come to a point which
we may need to backtrack to on failure such as (A|B|C), we push a
backtrack state onto the backtrack stack. On failure, we pop the top
state, and re-enter the loop at the state indicated. If there are no more
states to pop, we return failure.

Sometimes we also need to backtrack on success; for example /A+/, where
after successfully matching one A, we need to go back and try to
match another one; similarly for lookahead assertions: if the assertion
completes successfully, we backtrack to the state just before the assertion
and then carry on.  In these cases, the pushed state is marked as
'backtrack on success too'. This marking is in fact done by a chain of
pointers, each pointing to the previous 'yes' state. On success, we pop to
the nearest yes state, discarding any intermediate failure-only states.
Sometimes a yes state is pushed just to force some cleanup code to be
called at the end of a successful match or submatch; e.g. (??{$re}) uses
it to free the inner regex.

Note that failure backtracking rewinds the cursor position, while
success backtracking leaves it alone.

A pattern is complete when the END op is executed, while a subpattern
such as (?=foo) is complete when the SUCCESS op is executed. Both of these
ops trigger the "pop to last yes state if any, otherwise return true"
behaviour.

A common convention in this function is to use A and B to refer to the two
subpatterns (or to the first nodes thereof) in patterns like /A*B/: so A is
the subpattern to be matched possibly multiple times, while B is the entire
rest of the pattern. Variable and state names reflect this convention.

The states in the main switch are the union of ops and failure/success of
substates associated with that op.  For example, IFMATCH is the op
that does lookahead assertions /(?=A)B/ and so the IFMATCH state means
'execute IFMATCH'; while IFMATCH_A is a state saying that we have just
successfully matched A and IFMATCH_A_fail is a state saying that we have
just failed to match A. Resume states always come in pairs. The backtrack
state we push is marked as 'IFMATCH_A', but when that is popped, we resume
at IFMATCH_A or IFMATCH_A_fail, depending on whether we are backtracking
on success or failure.

The struct that holds a backtracking state is actually a big union, with
one variant for each major type of op. The variable st points to the
top-most backtrack struct. To make the code clearer, within each
block of code we #define ST to alias the relevant union.

Here's a concrete example of a (vastly oversimplified) IFMATCH
implementation:

    switch (state) {
    ....

#define ST st->u.ifmatch

    case IFMATCH: // we are executing the IFMATCH op, (?=A)B
        ST.foo = ...; // some state we wish to save
        ...
        // push a yes backtrack state with a resume value of
        // IFMATCH_A/IFMATCH_A_fail, then continue execution at the
        // first node of A:
        PUSH_YES_STATE_GOTO(IFMATCH_A, A, newinput);
        // NOTREACHED

    case IFMATCH_A: // we have successfully executed A; now continue with B
        next = B;
        bar = ST.foo; // do something with the preserved value
        break;

    case IFMATCH_A_fail: // A failed, so the assertion failed
        ...;   // do some housekeeping, then ...
        sayNO; // propagate the failure

#undef ST

    ...
    }

For any old-timers reading this who are familiar with the old recursive
approach, the code above is equivalent to:

    case IFMATCH: // we are executing the IFMATCH op, (?=A)B
    {
        int foo = ...
        ...
        if (regmatch(A)) {
            next = B;
            bar = foo;
            break;
        }
        ...;   // do some housekeeping, then ...
        sayNO; // propagate the failure
    }

The topmost backtrack state, pointed to by st, is usually free. If you
want to claim it, populate any ST.foo fields in it with values you wish to
save, then do one of

        PUSH_STATE_GOTO(resume_state, node, newinput, new_eol);
        PUSH_YES_STATE_GOTO(resume_state, node, newinput, new_eol);

which sets that backtrack state's resume value to 'resume_state', pushes a
new free entry to the top of the backtrack stack, then goes to 'node'.
On backtracking, the free slot is popped, and the saved state becomes the
new free state. An ST.foo field in this new top state can be temporarily
accessed to retrieve values, but once the main loop is re-entered, it
becomes available for reuse.

Note that the depth of the backtrack stack constantly increases during the
left-to-right execution of the pattern, rather than going up and down with
the pattern nesting. For example the stack is at its maximum at Z at the
end of the pattern, rather than at X in the following:

    /(((X)+)+)+....(Y)+....Z/

The only exceptions to this are lookahead/behind assertions and the cut,
(?>A), which pop all the backtrack states associated with A before
continuing.

Backtrack state structs are allocated in slabs of about 4K in size.
PL_regmatch_state and st always point to the currently active state,
and PL_regmatch_slab points to the slab currently containing
PL_regmatch_state.  The first time regmatch() is called, the first slab is
allocated, and is never freed until interpreter destruction. When the slab
is full, a new one is allocated and chained to the end. At exit from
regmatch(), slabs allocated since entry are freed.

In order to work with variable length lookbehinds, an upper limit is placed on
lookbehinds which is set to where the match position is at the end of where the
lookbehind would get to.  Nothing in the lookbehind should match above that,
except we should be able to look beyond if for things like \b, which need the
next character in the string to be able to determine if this is a boundary or
not.  We also can't match the end of string/line unless we are also at the end
of the entire string, so NEXTCHR_IS_EOS remains the same, and for those OPs
that match a width, we have to add a condition that they are within the legal
bounds of our window into the string.

             * Since at runtime we don't record the matching position in

                 * happen to have come from different CVs (e.g. via

                 * interleaving SAVEt_COMPPAD's on the savestack whenever
                 * there is a change of pad.
                 * In theory whenever we call a code block, we should
                 * push a CXt_SUB context, then pop it on return from
                 * that code block. This causes a bit of an issue in that

                 * back to cx->blk_oldsaveix, but here we specifically
                 * don't want to clear the save stack on exit from the
                 * code block.
                 * Also for efficiency we don't want to keep pushing and
                 * popping the single SUB context as we backtrack etc.
                 * So instead, we push a single context the first time
                 * we need, it, then hang onto it until the end of this
                 * function. Whenever we encounter a new code block, we
                 * update the CV etc if that's changed. During the times
                 * in this function where we're not executing a code
                 * block, having the SUB context still there is a bit
                 * naughty - but we hope that no-one notices.
                 * When the SUB context is initially pushed, we fake up
                 * cx->blk_oldsaveix to be as if we'd pushed this context
                 * on first entry to S_regmatch rather than at some random
                 * point during the regexe execution. That way if we
                 * croak, popping the context stack will ensure that
                 * *everything* SAVEd by this function is undone and then
                 * the context popped, rather than e.g., popping the
                 * context (and restoring the original PL_comppad) then
                 * popping more of the savestack and restoring a bad

STAR/PLUS/CURLY/CURLYN are used instead.)

A*B is compiled as <CURLYX><A><WHILEM><B>

On entry to the subpattern, CURLYX is called. This pushes a CURLYX
state, which contains the current count, initialised to -1. It also sets
cur_curlyx to point to this state, with any previous value saved in the
state block.

CURLYX then jumps straight to the WHILEM op, rather than executing A,
since the pattern may possibly match zero times (i.e. it's a while {} loop
rather than a do {} while loop).

Each entry to WHILEM represents a successful match of A. The count in the
CURLYX block is incremented, another WHILEM state is pushed, and execution
passes to A or B depending on greediness and the current count.

For example, if matching against the string a1a2a3b (where the aN are
substrings that match /A/), then the match progresses as follows: (the
pushed states are interspersed with the bits of strings matched so far):

    <CURLYX cnt=-1>
    <CURLYX cnt=0><WHILEM>
    <CURLYX cnt=1><WHILEM> a1 <WHILEM>
    <CURLYX cnt=2><WHILEM> a1 <WHILEM> a2 <WHILEM>
    <CURLYX cnt=3><WHILEM> a1 <WHILEM> a2 <WHILEM> a3 <WHILEM>
    <CURLYX cnt=3><WHILEM> a1 <WHILEM> a2 <WHILEM> a3 <WHILEM> b

(Contrast this with something like CURLYM, which maintains only a single
backtrack state:

    <CURLYM cnt=0> a1
    a1 <CURLYM cnt=1> a2
    a1 a2 <CURLYM cnt=2> a3
    a1 a2 a3 <CURLYM cnt=3> b
)

Each WHILEM state block marks a point to backtrack to upon partial failure
of A or B, and also contains some minor state data related to that
iteration.  The CURLYX block, pointed to by cur_curlyx, contains the
overall state, such as the count, and pointers to the A and B ops.

This is complicated slightly by nested CURLYX/WHILEM's. Since cur_curlyx
must always point to the *current* CURLYX block, the rules are:

When executing CURLYX, save the old cur_curlyx in the CURLYX state block,
and set cur_curlyx to point the new block.

When popping the CURLYX block after a successful or unsuccessful match,
restore the previous cur_curlyx.

When WHILEM is about to execute B, save the current cur_curlyx, and set it
to the outer one saved in the CURLYX block.

When popping the WHILEM block after a successful or unsuccessful B match,
restore the previous cur_curlyx.

Here's an example for the pattern (AI* BI)*BO
I and O refer to inner and outer, C and W refer to CURLYX and WHILEM:

cur_
curlyx backtrack stack
------ ---------------
NULL
CO     <CO prev=NULL> <WO>
CI     <CO prev=NULL> <WO> <CI prev=CO> <WI> ai
CO     <CO prev=NULL> <WO> <CI prev=CO> <WI> ai <WI prev=CI> bi
NULL   <CO prev=NULL> <WO> <CI prev=CO> <WI> ai <WI prev=CI> bi <WO prev=CO> bo

At this point the pattern succeeds, and we work back down the stack to
clean up, restoring as we go:

CO     <CO prev=NULL> <WO> <CI prev=CO> <WI> ai <WI prev=CI> bi
CI     <CO prev=NULL> <WO> <CI prev=CO> <WI> ai
CO     <CO prev=NULL> <WO>
NULL

/*
=for apidoc_section $unicode

=for apidoc isSCRIPT_RUN

Returns a bool as to whether or not the sequence of bytes from C<s> up to but
not including C<send> form a "script run".  C<utf8_target> is TRUE iff the
sequence starting at C<s> is to be treated as UTF-8.  To be precise, except for
two degenerate cases given below, this function returns TRUE iff all code
points in it come from any combination of three "scripts" given by the Unicode
"Script Extensions" property: Common, Inherited, and possibly one other.
Additionally all decimal digits must come from the same consecutive sequence of
10.

For example, if all the characters in the sequence are Greek, or Common, or
Inherited, this function will return TRUE, provided any decimal digits in it
are from the same block of digits in Common.  (These are the ASCII digits
"0".."9" and additionally a block for full width forms of these, and several
others used in mathematical notation.)   For scripts (unlike Greek) that have
their own digits defined this will accept either digits from that set or from
one of the Common digit sets, but not a combination of the two.  Some scripts,
such as Arabic, have more than one set of digits.  All digits must come from
the same set for this function to return TRUE.

C<*ret_script>, if C<ret_script> is not NULL, will on return of TRUE
contain the script found, using the C<SCX_enum> typedef.  Its value will be
C<SCX_INVALID> if the function returns FALSE.

If the sequence is empty, TRUE is returned, but C<*ret_script> (if asked for)
will be C<SCX_INVALID>.

If the sequence contains a single code point which is unassigned to a character
in the version of Unicode being used, the function will return TRUE, and the
script will be C<SCX_Unknown>.  Any other combination of unassigned code points
in the input sequence will result in the function treating the input as not
being a script run.

The returned script will be C<SCX_Inherited> iff all the code points in it are
from the Inherited script.

Otherwise, the returned script will be C<SCX_Common> iff all the code points in
it are from the Inherited or Common scripts.
