Previous implementation was querying Fontconfig using `charset` in a pattern, which was leading to unpredictable fallbacks in some cases, since Fontconfig was picking the font with the most coverage for a given charset, regardless of user configuration. Moreover all fallback was based on font_match which is extremely slow for such performance sensitive task as a fallback, so alacritty had a hard times on vtebench's unicode-random-write. The new approach is to use some internal fallback list from font_sort and iterate over it to get a proper fallback font, since it matches the following example query from `fc-match`: `fc-match -s "monospace:pixelsize=X:style=Y" That being said it's more intuitive for users to setup their system Fontconfig fallback, and also most applications are doing similar things. Moreover the new implementation uses internal caches over Fontconfig API when possible and performs font matches only once during load of requested font with font_sort, which leads to dramatically improved performance on already mentioned vtebench's unicode-random-write. Fixes #3176. Fixes #3134. Fixes #2657. Fixes #1560. Fixes #965. Fixes #511. |
