8 // TrigramIndex implements a heuristic for SpecialCaseList that allows to
9 // filter out ~99% incoming queries when all regular expressions in the
10 // SpecialCaseList are simple wildcards with '*' and '.'. If rules are more
11 // complicated, the check is defeated and it will always pass the queries to a
12 // full regex.
13 //
14 // The basic idea is that in order for a wildcard to match a query, the query
15 // needs to have all trigrams which occur in the wildcard. We create a trigram
16 // index (trigram -> list of rules with it) and then count trigrams in the query
17 // for each rule. If the count for one of the rules reaches the expected value,
18 // the check passes the query to a regex. If none of the rules got enough
19 // trigrams, the check tells that the query is definitely not matched by any
20 // of the rules, and no regex matching is needed.
21 // A similar idea was used in Google Code Search as described in the blog post:
22 // https://swtch.com/~rsc/regexp/regexp4.html
