1//! Differential rendering system for efficient UI updates
2//!
3//! This module implements a production-grade differential rendering system using the
4//! dirty rectangles algorithm with region coalescing optimizations. It significantly
5//! improves performance for static or partially changing content by tracking and
6//! rendering only the regions that have actually changed.
7//!
8//! # Theoretical Foundation
9//!
10//! The system is based on the "dirty rectangles" algorithm commonly used in
11//! graphics systems and game engines. Key concepts:
12//!
13//! - **Dirty Regions**: Rectangular areas marked for re-rendering due to content changes
14//! - **Region Coalescing**: Merging overlapping or adjacent dirty regions to reduce
15//! the number of render operations and improve cache locality
16//! - **Version Tracking**: Monotonic version numbers to detect changes without
17//! expensive content comparison
18//! - **Component Dependencies**: DAG-based dependency tracking for cascading updates
19//!
20//! # Algorithm Complexity
21//!
22//! - Region intersection check: O(1)
23//! - Region merging: O(n) where n is the number of existing dirty regions
24//! - Component dependency resolution: O(V + E) where V is vertices (components)
25//! and E is edges (dependencies)
26//! - Checksum calculation: O(k) where k is the sampling rate (typically 1/64 of pixels)
27//!
28//! # Memory Management
29//!
30//! The system implements several strategies to prevent memory leaks and bloat:
31//! - LRU eviction of old dirty regions
32//! - Maximum limits on tracked regions and components
33//! - Periodic cleanup of stale data
34//! - Efficient sampling for checksum calculation
35//!
36//! # Thread Safety
37//!
38//! While the `DifferentialRenderer` itself is not thread-safe (designed for
39//! single-threaded UI updates), the global version counter uses atomic operations
40//! to ensure monotonicity across potential future multi-threaded scenarios.
41//!
42//! # Performance Characteristics
43//!
44//! - Best case: O(1) for static content (no dirty regions)
45//! - Average case: O(k) where k is the number of dirty regions
46//! - Worst case: O(n*m) where n is components and m is dirty regions
47//! - Memory usage: O(c + r) where c is components and r is dirty regions

61/// Version number for tracking changes using a monotonic counter.
62///
63/// Versions provide a lightweight way to detect changes without expensive
64/// content comparison. Each version represents a specific state of a component
65/// or the global system.
66///
67/// # Guarantees
68///
69/// - **Monotonicity**: Version numbers always increase
70/// - **Uniqueness**: No two different states share the same version (within overflow)
71/// - **Overflow Safety**: Uses wrapping arithmetic to handle u64 overflow gracefully
72///
73/// # Example
74///
75/// ```rust
76/// use hojicha_rendering::differential::Version;
77///
78/// let mut v = Version::default();
79/// assert_eq!(v.value(), 0);
80///
81/// v.increment();
82/// assert_eq!(v.value(), 1);
83///
84/// let next = v.next();
85/// assert_eq!(next.value(), 2);
86/// assert_eq!(v.value(), 1); // original unchanged
87/// ```

131///
132/// This atomic counter ensures that version numbers are globally unique
133/// and monotonically increasing, even in potential future multi-threaded
134/// scenarios. Starts at 1 to distinguish from the default Version(0).
135///
136/// # Thread Safety
137///
138/// Uses `Relaxed` ordering as we only need atomicity for the increment
139/// operation, not strict ordering between threads.

142/// Get a new global version number.
143///
144/// This function provides globally unique, monotonically increasing

146///
147/// # Thread Safety
148///
149/// Safe to call from multiple threads. Uses atomic operations to
150/// ensure uniqueness without locks.
151///
152/// # Example
153///
154/// ```rust
155/// use hojicha_rendering::differential::next_version;
156///
157/// let v1 = next_version();
158/// let v2 = next_version();
159/// assert!(v2.value() > v1.value());

164
165/// Checksum for efficient content change detection.
166///
167/// Checksums provide a fast way to detect content changes without
168/// storing or comparing the entire content. Uses sampling-based
169/// hashing for large buffers to balance accuracy with performance.
170///
171/// # Algorithm
172///
173/// For buffers, uses a sampling approach that hashes:
174/// - Buffer dimensions (width, height)
175/// - Sample of cells in an 8x8 grid pattern
176/// - All cell attributes (symbol, foreground, background, modifiers)
177///
178/// This provides good change detection while maintaining O(1) performance
179/// for typical UI content.
180///
181/// # Collision Resistance
182///
183/// Uses Rust's default hasher (currently SipHash) which provides:
184/// - Cryptographic-quality randomization
185/// - Resistance to hash collision attacks
186/// - Good distribution for UI content patterns
187///
188/// # Example
189///
190/// ```rust
191/// use hojicha_rendering::differential::Checksum;
192///
193/// let checksum1 = Checksum::from_string("hello");
194/// let checksum2 = Checksum::from_string("hello");

196///
197/// assert_eq!(checksum1, checksum2); // Same content = same checksum
198/// assert_ne!(checksum1, checksum3); // Different content = different checksum

623///
624/// This is the central component that orchestrates the differential rendering
625/// system. It tracks component states, manages dirty regions, and provides
626/// the API for determining what needs to be re-rendered.

643/// # Memory Complexity
644///
645/// - **Components**: O(n) where n is the number of registered components
646/// - **Dirty Regions**: O(k) where k is bounded by `max_dirty_regions`
647/// - **Total**: O(n + k) with configurable upper bounds
648///
649/// # Performance Guarantees
650///
651/// - Component lookup: O(1) average, O(n) worst case (HashMap)
652/// - Region intersection: O(k) where k is current dirty regions
653/// - Memory bounded: Hard limits prevent unbounded growth
654/// - Cleanup: Automatic eviction of stale data
655///
656/// # Thread Safety
657///
658/// Not thread-safe. Designed for single-threaded UI event loops.
659/// Use external synchronization if multi-threaded access is needed.
660///
661/// # Invariants
662///
663/// The following invariants are maintained and checked in debug builds:
664/// - All dirty regions have positive area
665/// - Component dependency graph is acyclic (DAG)
666/// - Version numbers are monotonic within each component
667/// - Memory usage stays within configured limits
