sha1-lookup: more memory efficient search in sorted list of SHA-1 Currently, when looking for a packed object from the pack idx, a simple binary search is used. A conventional binary search loop looks like this: unsigned lo, hi; do { unsigned mi = (lo + hi) / 2; int cmp = "entry pointed at by mi" minus "target"; if (!cmp) return mi; "mi is the wanted one" if (cmp > 0) hi = mi; "mi is larger than target" else lo = mi+1; "mi is smaller than target" } while (lo < hi); "did not find what we wanted" The invariants are: - When entering the loop, 'lo' points at a slot that is never above the target (it could be at the target), 'hi' points at a slot that is guaranteed to be above the target (it can never be at the target). - We find a point 'mi' between 'lo' and 'hi' ('mi' could be the same as 'lo', but never can be as high as 'hi'), and check if 'mi' hits the target. There are three cases: - if it is a hit, we have found what we are looking for; - if it is strictly higher than the target, we set it to 'hi', and repeat the search. - if it is strictly lower than the target, we update 'lo' to one slot after it, because we allow 'lo' to be at the target and 'mi' is known to be below the target. If the loop exits, there is no matching entry. When choosing 'mi', we do not have to take the "middle" but anywhere in between 'lo' and 'hi', as long as lo <= mi < hi is satisfied. When we somehow know that the distance between the target and 'lo' is much shorter than the target and 'hi', we could pick 'mi' that is much closer to 'lo' than (hi+lo)/2, which a conventional binary search would pick. This patch takes advantage of the fact that the SHA-1 is a good hash function, and as long as there are enough entries in the table, we can expect uniform distribution. An entry that begins with for example "deadbeef..." is much likely to appear much later than in the midway of a reasonably populated table. In fact, it can be expected to be near 87% (222/256) from the top of the table. This is a work-in-progress and has switches to allow easier experiments and debugging. Exporting GIT_USE_LOOKUP environment variable enables this code. On my admittedly memory starved machine, with a partial KDE repository (3.0G pack with 95M idx): $ GIT_USE_LOOKUP=t git log -800 --stat HEAD >/dev/null 3.93user 0.16system 0:04.09elapsed 100%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+55588minor)pagefaults 0swaps Without the patch, the numbers are: $ git log -800 --stat HEAD >/dev/null 4.00user 0.15system 0:04.17elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+60258minor)pagefaults 0swaps In the same repository: $ GIT_USE_LOOKUP=t git log -2000 HEAD >/dev/null 0.12user 0.00system 0:00.12elapsed 97%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+4241minor)pagefaults 0swaps Without the patch, the numbers are: $ git log -2000 HEAD >/dev/null 0.05user 0.01system 0:00.07elapsed 100%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+8506minor)pagefaults 0swaps There isn't much time difference, but the number of minor faults seems to show that we are touching much smaller number of pages, which is expected.

find_pack_entry: replace last_found_pack with MRU cache Each pack has an index for looking up entries in O(log n) time, but if we have multiple packs, we have to scan through them linearly. This can produce a measurable overhead for some operations. We dealt with this long ago in f7c22cc (always start looking up objects in the last used pack first, 2007-05-30), which keeps what is essentially a 1-element most-recently-used cache. In theory, we should be able to do better by keeping a similar but longer cache, that is the same length as the pack-list itself. Since we now have a convenient generic MRU structure, we can plug it in and measure. Here are the numbers for running p5303 against linux.git: Test HEAD^ HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5303.3: rev-list (1) 31.56(31.28+0.27) 31.30(31.08+0.20) -0.8% 5303.4: repack (1) 40.62(39.35+2.36) 40.60(39.27+2.44) -0.0% 5303.6: rev-list (50) 31.31(31.06+0.23) 31.23(31.00+0.22) -0.3% 5303.7: repack (50) 58.65(69.12+1.94) 58.27(68.64+2.05) -0.6% 5303.9: rev-list (1000) 38.74(38.40+0.33) 31.87(31.62+0.24) -17.7% 5303.10: repack (1000) 367.20(441.80+4.62) 342.00(414.04+3.72) -6.9% The main numbers of interest here are the rev-list ones (since that is exercising the normal object lookup code path). The single-pack case shouldn't improve at all; the 260ms speedup there is just part of the run-to-run noise (but it's important to note that we didn't make anything worse with the overhead of maintaining our cache). In the 50-pack case, we see similar results. There may be a slight improvement, but it's mostly within the noise. The 1000-pack case does show a big improvement, though. That carries over to the repack case, as well. Even though we haven't touched its pack-search loop yet, it does still do a lot of normal object lookups (e.g., for the internal revision walk), and so improves. As a point of reference, I also ran the 1000-pack test against a version of HEAD^ with the last_found_pack optimization disabled. It takes ~60s, so that gives an indication of how much even the single-element cache is helping. For comparison, here's a smaller repository, git.git: Test HEAD^ HEAD --------------------------------------------------------------------- 5303.3: rev-list (1) 1.56(1.54+0.01) 1.54(1.51+0.02) -1.3% 5303.4: repack (1) 1.84(1.80+0.10) 1.82(1.80+0.09) -1.1% 5303.6: rev-list (50) 1.58(1.55+0.02) 1.59(1.57+0.01) +0.6% 5303.7: repack (50) 2.50(3.18+0.04) 2.50(3.14+0.04) +0.0% 5303.9: rev-list (1000) 2.76(2.71+0.04) 2.24(2.21+0.02) -18.8% 5303.10: repack (1000) 13.21(19.56+0.25) 11.66(18.01+0.21) -11.7% You can see that the percentage improvement is similar. That's because the lookup we are optimizing is roughly O(nr_objects * nr_packs). Since the number of packs is constant in both tests, we'd expect the improvement to be linear in the number of objects. But the whole process is also linear in the number of objects, so the improvement is a constant factor. The exact improvement does also depend on the contents of the packs. In p5303, the extra packs all have 5 first-parent commits in them, which is a reasonable simulation of a pushed-to repository. But it also means that only 250 first-parent commits are in those packs (compared to almost 50,000 total in linux.git), and the rest are in the huge "base" pack. So once we start looking at history in taht big pack, that's where we'll find most everything, and even the 1-element cache gets close to 100% cache hits. You could almost certainly show better numbers with a more pathological case (e.g., distributing the objects more evenly across the packs). But that's simply not that realistic a scenario, so it makes more sense to focus on these numbers. The implementation itself is a straightforward application of the MRU code. We provide an MRU-ordered list of packs that shadows the packed_git list. This is easy to do because we only create and revise the pack list in one place. The "reprepare" code path actually drops the whole MRU and replaces it for simplicity. It would be more efficient to just add new entries, but there's not much point in optimizing here; repreparing happens rarely, and only after doing a lot of other expensive work. The key things to keep optimized are traversal (which is just a normal linked list, albeit with one extra level of indirection over the regular packed_git list), and marking (which is a constant number of pointer assignments, though slightly more than the old last_found_pack was; it doesn't seem to create a measurable slowdown, though).

rerere: make sure it works even in a workdir attached to a young repository The git-new-workdir script in contrib/ makes a new work tree by sharing many subdirectories of the .git directory with the original repository. When rerere.enabled is set in the original repository, but the user has not encountered any conflicts yet, the original repository may not yet have .git/rr-cache directory. When rerere wants to run in a new work tree created from such a young original repository, it fails to mkdir(2) .git/rr-cache that is a symlink to a yet-to-be-created directory. There are three possible approaches to this: - A naive solution is not to create a symlink in the git-new-workdir script to a directory the original does not have (yet). This is not a solution, as we tend to lazily create subdirectories of .git/, and having rerere.enabled configuration set is a strong indication that the user _wants_ to have this lazy creation to happen; - We could always create .git/rr-cache upon repository creation. This is tempting but will not help people with existing repositories. - Detect this case by seeing that mkdir(2) failed with EEXIST, checking that the path is a symlink, and try running mkdir(2) on the link target. This patch solves the issue by doing the third one. Strictly speaking, this is incomplete. It does not attempt to handle relative symbolic link that points into the original repository, but this is good enough to help people who use contrib/workdir/git-new-workdir script.

Fully activate the sliding window pack access. This finally turns on the sliding window behavior for packfile data access by mapping limited size windows and chaining them under the packed_git->windows list. We consider a given byte offset to be within the window only if there would be at least 20 bytes (one hash worth of data) accessible after the requested offset. This range selection relates to the contract that use_pack() makes with its callers, allowing them to access one hash or one object header without needing to call use_pack() for every byte of data obtained. In the worst case scenario we will map the same page of data twice into memory: once at the end of one window and once again at the start of the next window. This duplicate page mapping will happen only when an object header or a delta base reference is spanned over the end of a window and is always limited to just one page of duplication, as no sane operating system will ever have a page size smaller than a hash. I am assuming that the possible wasted page of virtual address space is going to perform faster than the alternatives, which would be to copy the object header or ref delta into a temporary buffer prior to parsing, or to check the window range on every byte during header parsing. We may decide to revisit this decision in the future since this is just a gut instinct decision and has not actually been proven out by experimental testing. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

find_pack_entry: replace last_found_pack with MRU cache Each pack has an index for looking up entries in O(log n) time, but if we have multiple packs, we have to scan through them linearly. This can produce a measurable overhead for some operations. We dealt with this long ago in f7c22cc (always start looking up objects in the last used pack first, 2007-05-30), which keeps what is essentially a 1-element most-recently-used cache. In theory, we should be able to do better by keeping a similar but longer cache, that is the same length as the pack-list itself. Since we now have a convenient generic MRU structure, we can plug it in and measure. Here are the numbers for running p5303 against linux.git: Test HEAD^ HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5303.3: rev-list (1) 31.56(31.28+0.27) 31.30(31.08+0.20) -0.8% 5303.4: repack (1) 40.62(39.35+2.36) 40.60(39.27+2.44) -0.0% 5303.6: rev-list (50) 31.31(31.06+0.23) 31.23(31.00+0.22) -0.3% 5303.7: repack (50) 58.65(69.12+1.94) 58.27(68.64+2.05) -0.6% 5303.9: rev-list (1000) 38.74(38.40+0.33) 31.87(31.62+0.24) -17.7% 5303.10: repack (1000) 367.20(441.80+4.62) 342.00(414.04+3.72) -6.9% The main numbers of interest here are the rev-list ones (since that is exercising the normal object lookup code path). The single-pack case shouldn't improve at all; the 260ms speedup there is just part of the run-to-run noise (but it's important to note that we didn't make anything worse with the overhead of maintaining our cache). In the 50-pack case, we see similar results. There may be a slight improvement, but it's mostly within the noise. The 1000-pack case does show a big improvement, though. That carries over to the repack case, as well. Even though we haven't touched its pack-search loop yet, it does still do a lot of normal object lookups (e.g., for the internal revision walk), and so improves. As a point of reference, I also ran the 1000-pack test against a version of HEAD^ with the last_found_pack optimization disabled. It takes ~60s, so that gives an indication of how much even the single-element cache is helping. For comparison, here's a smaller repository, git.git: Test HEAD^ HEAD --------------------------------------------------------------------- 5303.3: rev-list (1) 1.56(1.54+0.01) 1.54(1.51+0.02) -1.3% 5303.4: repack (1) 1.84(1.80+0.10) 1.82(1.80+0.09) -1.1% 5303.6: rev-list (50) 1.58(1.55+0.02) 1.59(1.57+0.01) +0.6% 5303.7: repack (50) 2.50(3.18+0.04) 2.50(3.14+0.04) +0.0% 5303.9: rev-list (1000) 2.76(2.71+0.04) 2.24(2.21+0.02) -18.8% 5303.10: repack (1000) 13.21(19.56+0.25) 11.66(18.01+0.21) -11.7% You can see that the percentage improvement is similar. That's because the lookup we are optimizing is roughly O(nr_objects * nr_packs). Since the number of packs is constant in both tests, we'd expect the improvement to be linear in the number of objects. But the whole process is also linear in the number of objects, so the improvement is a constant factor. The exact improvement does also depend on the contents of the packs. In p5303, the extra packs all have 5 first-parent commits in them, which is a reasonable simulation of a pushed-to repository. But it also means that only 250 first-parent commits are in those packs (compared to almost 50,000 total in linux.git), and the rest are in the huge "base" pack. So once we start looking at history in taht big pack, that's where we'll find most everything, and even the 1-element cache gets close to 100% cache hits. You could almost certainly show better numbers with a more pathological case (e.g., distributing the objects more evenly across the packs). But that's simply not that realistic a scenario, so it makes more sense to focus on these numbers. The implementation itself is a straightforward application of the MRU code. We provide an MRU-ordered list of packs that shadows the packed_git list. This is easy to do because we only create and revise the pack list in one place. The "reprepare" code path actually drops the whole MRU and replaces it for simplicity. It would be more efficient to just add new entries, but there's not much point in optimizing here; repreparing happens rarely, and only after doing a lot of other expensive work. The key things to keep optimized are traversal (which is just a normal linked list, albeit with one extra level of indirection over the regular packed_git list), and marking (which is a constant number of pointer assignments, though slightly more than the old last_found_pack was; it doesn't seem to create a measurable slowdown, though).

Fix random fast-import errors when compiled with NO_MMAP fast-import was relying on the fact that on most systems mmap() and write() are synchronized by the filesystem's buffer cache. We were relying on the ability to mmap() 20 bytes beyond the current end of the file, then later fill in those bytes with a future write() call, then read them through the previously obtained mmap() address. This isn't always true with some implementations of NFS, but it is especially not true with our NO_MMAP=YesPlease build time option used on some platforms. If fast-import was built with NO_MMAP=YesPlease we used the malloc()+pread() emulation and the subsequent write() call does not update the trailing 20 bytes of a previously obtained "mmap()" (aka malloc'd) address. Under NO_MMAP that behavior causes unpack_entry() in sha1_file.c to be unable to read an object header (or data) that has been unlucky enough to be written to the packfile at a location such that it is in the trailing 20 bytes of a window previously opened on that same packfile. This bug has gone unnoticed for a very long time as it is highly data dependent. Not only does the object have to be placed at the right position, but it also needs to be positioned behind some other object that has been accessed due to a branch cache invalidation. In other words the stars had to align just right, and if you did run into this bug you probably should also have purchased a lottery ticket. Fortunately the workaround is a lot easier than the bug explanation. Before we allow unpack_entry() to read data from a pack window that has also (possibly) been modified through write() we force all existing windows on that packfile to be closed. By closing the windows we ensure that any new access via the emulated mmap() will reread the packfile, updating to the current file content. This comes at a slight performance degredation as we cannot reuse previously cached windows when we update the packfile. But it is a fairly minor difference as the window closes happen at only two points: - When the packfile is finalized and its .idx is generated: At this stage we are getting ready to update the refs and any data access into the packfile is going to be random, and is going after only the branch tips (to ensure they are valid). Our existing windows (if any) are not likely to be positioned at useful locations to access those final tip commits so we probably were closing them before anyway. - When the branch cache missed and we need to reload: At this point fast-import is getting change commands for the next commit and it needs to go re-read a tree object it previously had written out to the packfile. What windows we had (if any) are not likely to cover the tree in question so we probably were closing them before anyway. We do try to avoid unnecessarily closing windows in the second case by checking to see if the packfile size has increased since the last time we called unpack_entry() on that packfile. If the size has not changed then we have not written additional data, and any existing window is still vaild. This nicely handles the cases where fast-import is going through a branch cache reload and needs to read many trees at once. During such an event we are not likely to be updating the packfile so we do not cycle the windows between reads. With this change in place t9301-fast-export.sh (which was broken by c3b0dec509fe136c5417422f31898b5a4e2d5e02) finally works again. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

sha1_file: introduce close_one_pack() to close packs on fd pressure When the number of open packs exceeds pack_max_fds, unuse_one_window() is called repeatedly to attempt to release the least-recently-used pack windows, which, as a side-effect, will also close a pack file after closing its last open window. If a pack file has been opened, but no windows have been allocated into it, it will never be selected by unuse_one_window() and hence its file descriptor will not be closed. When this happens, git may exceed the number of file descriptors permitted by the system. This latter situation can occur in show-ref or receive-pack during ref advertisement. During ref advertisement, receive-pack will iterate over every ref in the repository and advertise it to the client after ensuring that the ref exists in the local repository. If the ref is located inside a pack, then the pack is opened to ensure that it exists, but since the object is not actually read from the pack, no mmap windows are allocated. When the number of open packs exceeds pack_max_fds, unuse_one_window() will not be able to find any windows to free and will not be able to close any packs. Once the per-process file descriptor limit is exceeded, receive-pack will produce a warning, not an error, for each pack it cannot open, and will then most likely fail with an error to spawn rev-list or index-pack like: error: cannot create standard input pipe for rev-list: Too many open files error: Could not run 'git rev-list' This may also occur during upload-pack when refs are packed (in the packed-refs file) and the number of packs that must be opened to verify that these packed refs exist exceeds the file descriptor limit. If the refs are loose, then upload-pack will read each ref from the object database (if the object is in a pack, allocating one or more mmap windows for it) in order to peel tags and advertise the underlying object. But when the refs are packed and peeled, upload-pack will use the peeled sha1 in the packed-refs file and will not need to read from the pack files, so no mmap windows will be allocated and just like with receive-pack, unuse_one_window() will never select these opened packs to close. When we have file descriptor pressure, we just need to find an open pack to close. We can leave the existing mmap windows open. If additional windows need to be mapped into the pack file, it will be reopened when necessary. If the pack file has been rewritten in the mean time, open_packed_git_1() should notice when it compares the file size or the pack's sha1 checksum to what was previously read from the pack index, and reject it. Let's introduce a new function close_one_pack() designed specifically for this purpose to search for and close the least-recently-used pack, where LRU is defined as (in order of preference): * pack with oldest mtime and no allocated mmap windows * pack with the least-recently-used windows, i.e. the pack with the oldest most-recently-used window, where none of the windows are in use * pack with the least-recently-used windows Signed-off-by: Brandon Casey <drafnel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

sha1_file: introduce close_one_pack() to close packs on fd pressure When the number of open packs exceeds pack_max_fds, unuse_one_window() is called repeatedly to attempt to release the least-recently-used pack windows, which, as a side-effect, will also close a pack file after closing its last open window. If a pack file has been opened, but no windows have been allocated into it, it will never be selected by unuse_one_window() and hence its file descriptor will not be closed. When this happens, git may exceed the number of file descriptors permitted by the system. This latter situation can occur in show-ref or receive-pack during ref advertisement. During ref advertisement, receive-pack will iterate over every ref in the repository and advertise it to the client after ensuring that the ref exists in the local repository. If the ref is located inside a pack, then the pack is opened to ensure that it exists, but since the object is not actually read from the pack, no mmap windows are allocated. When the number of open packs exceeds pack_max_fds, unuse_one_window() will not be able to find any windows to free and will not be able to close any packs. Once the per-process file descriptor limit is exceeded, receive-pack will produce a warning, not an error, for each pack it cannot open, and will then most likely fail with an error to spawn rev-list or index-pack like: error: cannot create standard input pipe for rev-list: Too many open files error: Could not run 'git rev-list' This may also occur during upload-pack when refs are packed (in the packed-refs file) and the number of packs that must be opened to verify that these packed refs exist exceeds the file descriptor limit. If the refs are loose, then upload-pack will read each ref from the object database (if the object is in a pack, allocating one or more mmap windows for it) in order to peel tags and advertise the underlying object. But when the refs are packed and peeled, upload-pack will use the peeled sha1 in the packed-refs file and will not need to read from the pack files, so no mmap windows will be allocated and just like with receive-pack, unuse_one_window() will never select these opened packs to close. When we have file descriptor pressure, we just need to find an open pack to close. We can leave the existing mmap windows open. If additional windows need to be mapped into the pack file, it will be reopened when necessary. If the pack file has been rewritten in the mean time, open_packed_git_1() should notice when it compares the file size or the pack's sha1 checksum to what was previously read from the pack index, and reject it. Let's introduce a new function close_one_pack() designed specifically for this purpose to search for and close the least-recently-used pack, where LRU is defined as (in order of preference): * pack with oldest mtime and no allocated mmap windows * pack with the least-recently-used windows, i.e. the pack with the oldest most-recently-used window, where none of the windows are in use * pack with the least-recently-used windows Signed-off-by: Brandon Casey <drafnel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Replace use_packed_git with window cursors. Part of the implementation concept of the sliding mmap window for pack access is to permit multiple windows per pack to be mapped independently. Since the inuse_cnt is associated with the mmap and not with the file, this value is in struct pack_window and needs to be incremented/decremented for each pack_window accessed by any code. To faciliate that implementation we need to replace all uses of use_packed_git() and unuse_packed_git() with a different API that follows struct pack_window objects rather than struct packed_git. The way this works is when we need to start accessing a pack for the first time we should setup a new window 'cursor' by declaring a local and setting it to NULL: struct pack_windows *w_curs = NULL; To obtain the memory region which contains a specific section of the pack file we invoke use_pack(), supplying the address of our current window cursor: unsigned int len; unsigned char *addr = use_pack(p, &w_curs, offset, &len); the returned address `addr` will be the first byte at `offset` within the pack file. The optional variable len will also be updated with the number of bytes remaining following the address. Multiple calls to use_pack() with the same window cursor will update the window cursor, moving it from one window to another when necessary. In this way each window cursor variable maintains only one struct pack_window inuse at a time. Finally before exiting the scope which originally declared the window cursor we must invoke unuse_pack() to unuse the current window (which may be different from the one that was first obtained from use_pack): unuse_pack(&w_curs); This implementation is still not complete with regards to multiple windows, as only one window per pack file is supported right now.

In the worst case scenario we will map the same page of data twice into memory: once at the end of one window and once again at the start of the next window.

Fully activate the sliding window pack access. This finally turns on the sliding window behavior for packfile data access by mapping limited size windows and chaining them under the packed_git->windows list. We consider a given byte offset to be within the window only if there would be at least 20 bytes (one hash worth of data) accessible after the requested offset. This range selection relates to the contract that use_pack() makes with its callers, allowing them to access one hash or one object header without needing to call use_pack() for every byte of data obtained. In the worst case scenario we will map the same page of data twice into memory: once at the end of one window and once again at the start of the next window. This duplicate page mapping will happen only when an object header or a delta base reference is spanned over the end of a window and is always limited to just one page of duplication, as no sane operating system will ever have a page size smaller than a hash. I am assuming that the possible wasted page of virtual address space is going to perform faster than the alternatives, which would be to copy the object header or ref delta into a temporary buffer prior to parsing, or to check the window range on every byte during header parsing. We may decide to revisit this decision in the future since this is just a gut instinct decision and has not actually been proven out by experimental testing. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

Replace use_packed_git with window cursors. Part of the implementation concept of the sliding mmap window for pack access is to permit multiple windows per pack to be mapped independently. Since the inuse_cnt is associated with the mmap and not with the file, this value is in struct pack_window and needs to be incremented/decremented for each pack_window accessed by any code. To faciliate that implementation we need to replace all uses of use_packed_git() and unuse_packed_git() with a different API that follows struct pack_window objects rather than struct packed_git. The way this works is when we need to start accessing a pack for the first time we should setup a new window 'cursor' by declaring a local and setting it to NULL: struct pack_windows *w_curs = NULL; To obtain the memory region which contains a specific section of the pack file we invoke use_pack(), supplying the address of our current window cursor: unsigned int len; unsigned char *addr = use_pack(p, &w_curs, offset, &len); the returned address `addr` will be the first byte at `offset` within the pack file. The optional variable len will also be updated with the number of bytes remaining following the address. Multiple calls to use_pack() with the same window cursor will update the window cursor, moving it from one window to another when necessary. In this way each window cursor variable maintains only one struct pack_window inuse at a time. Finally before exiting the scope which originally declared the window cursor we must invoke unuse_pack() to unuse the current window (which may be different from the one that was first obtained from use_pack): unuse_pack(&w_curs); This implementation is still not complete with regards to multiple windows, as only one window per pack file is supported right now.

find_pack_entry: replace last_found_pack with MRU cache Each pack has an index for looking up entries in O(log n) time, but if we have multiple packs, we have to scan through them linearly. This can produce a measurable overhead for some operations. We dealt with this long ago in f7c22cc (always start looking up objects in the last used pack first, 2007-05-30), which keeps what is essentially a 1-element most-recently-used cache. In theory, we should be able to do better by keeping a similar but longer cache, that is the same length as the pack-list itself. Since we now have a convenient generic MRU structure, we can plug it in and measure. Here are the numbers for running p5303 against linux.git: Test HEAD^ HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5303.3: rev-list (1) 31.56(31.28+0.27) 31.30(31.08+0.20) -0.8% 5303.4: repack (1) 40.62(39.35+2.36) 40.60(39.27+2.44) -0.0% 5303.6: rev-list (50) 31.31(31.06+0.23) 31.23(31.00+0.22) -0.3% 5303.7: repack (50) 58.65(69.12+1.94) 58.27(68.64+2.05) -0.6% 5303.9: rev-list (1000) 38.74(38.40+0.33) 31.87(31.62+0.24) -17.7% 5303.10: repack (1000) 367.20(441.80+4.62) 342.00(414.04+3.72) -6.9% The main numbers of interest here are the rev-list ones (since that is exercising the normal object lookup code path). The single-pack case shouldn't improve at all; the 260ms speedup there is just part of the run-to-run noise (but it's important to note that we didn't make anything worse with the overhead of maintaining our cache). In the 50-pack case, we see similar results. There may be a slight improvement, but it's mostly within the noise. The 1000-pack case does show a big improvement, though. That carries over to the repack case, as well. Even though we haven't touched its pack-search loop yet, it does still do a lot of normal object lookups (e.g., for the internal revision walk), and so improves. As a point of reference, I also ran the 1000-pack test against a version of HEAD^ with the last_found_pack optimization disabled. It takes ~60s, so that gives an indication of how much even the single-element cache is helping. For comparison, here's a smaller repository, git.git: Test HEAD^ HEAD --------------------------------------------------------------------- 5303.3: rev-list (1) 1.56(1.54+0.01) 1.54(1.51+0.02) -1.3% 5303.4: repack (1) 1.84(1.80+0.10) 1.82(1.80+0.09) -1.1% 5303.6: rev-list (50) 1.58(1.55+0.02) 1.59(1.57+0.01) +0.6% 5303.7: repack (50) 2.50(3.18+0.04) 2.50(3.14+0.04) +0.0% 5303.9: rev-list (1000) 2.76(2.71+0.04) 2.24(2.21+0.02) -18.8% 5303.10: repack (1000) 13.21(19.56+0.25) 11.66(18.01+0.21) -11.7% You can see that the percentage improvement is similar. That's because the lookup we are optimizing is roughly O(nr_objects * nr_packs). Since the number of packs is constant in both tests, we'd expect the improvement to be linear in the number of objects. But the whole process is also linear in the number of objects, so the improvement is a constant factor. The exact improvement does also depend on the contents of the packs. In p5303, the extra packs all have 5 first-parent commits in them, which is a reasonable simulation of a pushed-to repository. But it also means that only 250 first-parent commits are in those packs (compared to almost 50,000 total in linux.git), and the rest are in the huge "base" pack. So once we start looking at history in taht big pack, that's where we'll find most everything, and even the 1-element cache gets close to 100% cache hits. You could almost certainly show better numbers with a more pathological case (e.g., distributing the objects more evenly across the packs). But that's simply not that realistic a scenario, so it makes more sense to focus on these numbers. The implementation itself is a straightforward application of the MRU code. We provide an MRU-ordered list of packs that shadows the packed_git list. This is easy to do because we only create and revise the pack list in one place. The "reprepare" code path actually drops the whole MRU and replaces it for simplicity. It would be more efficient to just add new entries, but there's not much point in optimizing here; repreparing happens rarely, and only after doing a lot of other expensive work. The key things to keep optimized are traversal (which is just a normal linked list, albeit with one extra level of indirection over the regular packed_git list), and marking (which is a constant number of pointer assignments, though slightly more than the old last_found_pack was; it doesn't seem to create a measurable slowdown, though).

It takes ~60s, so that gives an indication of how much even the single-element cache is helping. For comparison, here's a smaller repository, git.git: Test HEAD^ HEAD --------------------------------------------------------------------- 5303.3: rev-list (1) 1.56(1.54+0.01) 1.54(1.51+0.02) -1.3% 5303.4: repack (1) 1.84(1.80+0.10) 1.82(1.80+0.09) -1.1% 5303.6: rev-list (50) 1.58(1.55+0.02) 1.59(1.57+0.01) +0.6% 5303.7: repack (50) 2.50(3.18+0.04) 2.50(3.14+0.04) +0.0% 5303.9: rev-list (1000) 2.76(2.71+0.04) 2.24(2.21+0.02) -18.8% 5303.10: repack (1000) 13.21(19.56+0.25) 11.66(18.01+0.21) -11.7% You can see that the percentage improvement is similar. That's because the lookup we are optimizing is roughly O(nr_objects * nr_packs). Since the number of packs is constant in both tests, we'd expect the improvement to be linear in the number of objects. But the whole process is also linear in the number of objects, so the improvement is a constant factor. The exact improvement does also depend on the contents of the packs. In p5303, the extra packs all have 5 first-parent commits in them, which is a reasonable simulation of a pushed-to repository. But it also means that only 250 first-parent commits are in those packs (compared to almost 50,000 total in linux.git), and the rest are in the huge "base" pack. So once we start looking at history in taht big pack, that's where we'll find most everything, and even the 1-element cache gets close to 100% cache hits. You could almost certainly show better numbers with a more pathological case (e.g., distributing the objects more evenly across the packs). But that's simply not that realistic a scenario, so it makes more sense to focus on these numbers. The implementation itself is a straightforward application of the MRU code. We provide an MRU-ordered list of packs that shadows the packed_git list. This is easy to do because we only create and revise the pack list in one place. The "reprepare" code path actually drops the whole MRU and replaces it for simplicity. It would be more efficient to just add new entries, but there's not much point in optimizing here; repreparing happens rarely, and only after doing a lot of other expensive work. The key things to keep optimized are traversal (which is just a normal linked list, albeit with one extra level of indirection over the regular packed_git list), and marking (which is a constant number of pointer assignments, though slightly more than the old last_found_pack was; it doesn't seem to create a measurable slowdown, though).

Fix big left-shifts of unsigned char Shifting 'unsigned char' or 'unsigned short' left can result in sign extension errors, since the C integer promotion rules means that the unsigned char/short will get implicitly promoted to a signed 'int' due to the shift (or due to other operations). This normally doesn't matter, but if you shift things up sufficiently, it will now set the sign bit in 'int', and a subsequent cast to a bigger type (eg 'long' or 'unsigned long') will now sign-extend the value despite the original expression being unsigned. One example of this would be something like unsigned long size; unsigned char c; size += c << 24; where despite all the variables being unsigned, 'c << 24' ends up being a signed entity, and will get sign-extended when then doing the addition in an 'unsigned long' type. Since git uses 'unsigned char' pointers extensively, we actually have this bug in a couple of places. I may have missed some, but this is the result of looking at git grep '[^0-9 ][ ]*<<[ ][a-z]' -- '*.c' '*.h' git grep '<<[ ]*24' which catches at least the common byte cases (shifting variables by a variable amount, and shifting by 24 bits). I also grepped for just 'unsigned char' variables in general, and converted the ones that most obviously ended up getting implicitly cast immediately anyway (eg hash_name(), encode_85()). In addition to just avoiding 'unsigned char', this patch also tries to use a common idiom for the delta header size thing. We had three different variations on it: "& 0x7fUL" in one place (getting the sign extension right), and "& ~0x80" and "& 0x7f" in two other places (not getting it right). Apart from making them all just avoid using "unsigned char" at all, I also unified them to then use a simple "& 0x7f". I considered making a sparse extension which warns about doing implicit casts from unsigned types to signed types, but it gets rather complex very quickly, so this is just a hack.

unpack_sha1_header(): detect malformed object header When opening a loose object file, we often do this sequence: - prepare a short buffer for the object header (on stack) - call unpack_sha1_header() and have early part of the object data inflated, enough to fill the buffer - parse that data in the short buffer, assuming that the first part of the object is <typename> SP <length> NUL Because the parsing function parse_sha1_header_extended() is not given the number of bytes inflated into the header buffer, it you craft a file whose early part inflates a garbage sequence without SP or NUL, and replace a loose object with it, it will end up reading past the end of the inflated data. To correct this, do the following four things: - rename unpack_sha1_header() to unpack_sha1_short_header() and have unpack_sha1_header_to_strbuf() keep calling that as its helper function. This will detect and report zlib errors, but is not aware of the format of a loose object (as before). - introduce unpack_sha1_header() that calls the same helper function, and when zlib reports it inflated OK into the buffer, check if the inflated data has NUL. This would ensure that parsing function will terminate within the buffer that holds the inflated header. - update unpack_sha1_header_to_strbuf() to check if the resulting buffer has NUL for the same effect. - update parse_sha1_header_extended() to make sure that its loop to find the SP that terminates the <typename> stops at NUL. Essentially, this makes unpack_*() functions that are asked to unpack a loose object header to be a bit more strict and detect an input that cannot possibly be a valid object header, even before the parsing function kicks in.

provide an initializer for "struct object_info" An all-zero initializer is fine for this struct, but because the first element is a pointer, call sites need to know to use "NULL" instead of "0". Otherwise some static checkers like "sparse" will complain; see d099b71 (Fix some sparse warnings, 2013-07-18) for example. So let's provide an initializer to make this easier to get right. But let's also comment that memset() to zero is explicitly OK[1]. One of the callers embeds object_info in another struct which is initialized via memset (expand_data in builtin/cat-file.c). Since our subset of C doesn't allow assignment from a compound literal, handling this in any other way is awkward, so we'd like to keep the ability to initialize by memset(). By documenting this property, it should make anybody who wants to change the initializer think twice before doing so. There's one other caller of interest. In parse_sha1_header(), we did not initialize the struct fully in the first place. This turned out not to be a bug because the sub-function it calls does not look at any other fields except the ones we did initialize. But that assumption might not hold in the future, so it's a dangerous construct. This patch switches it to initializing the whole struct, which protects us against unexpected reads of the other fields. [1] Obviously using memset() to initialize a pointer violates the C standard, but we long ago decided that it was an acceptable tradeoff in the real world.

Replace use_packed_git with window cursors. Part of the implementation concept of the sliding mmap window for pack access is to permit multiple windows per pack to be mapped independently. Since the inuse_cnt is associated with the mmap and not with the file, this value is in struct pack_window and needs to be incremented/decremented for each pack_window accessed by any code. To faciliate that implementation we need to replace all uses of use_packed_git() and unuse_packed_git() with a different API that follows struct pack_window objects rather than struct packed_git. The way this works is when we need to start accessing a pack for the first time we should setup a new window 'cursor' by declaring a local and setting it to NULL: struct pack_windows *w_curs = NULL; To obtain the memory region which contains a specific section of the pack file we invoke use_pack(), supplying the address of our current window cursor: unsigned int len; unsigned char *addr = use_pack(p, &w_curs, offset, &len); the returned address `addr` will be the first byte at `offset` within the pack file. The optional variable len will also be updated with the number of bytes remaining following the address. Multiple calls to use_pack() with the same window cursor will update the window cursor, moving it from one window to another when necessary. In this way each window cursor variable maintains only one struct pack_window inuse at a time. Finally before exiting the scope which originally declared the window cursor we must invoke unuse_pack() to unuse the current window (which may be different from the one that was first obtained from use_pack): unuse_pack(&w_curs); This implementation is still not complete with regards to multiple windows, as only one window per pack file is supported right now.

Replace use_packed_git with window cursors. Part of the implementation concept of the sliding mmap window for pack access is to permit multiple windows per pack to be mapped independently. Since the inuse_cnt is associated with the mmap and not with the file, this value is in struct pack_window and needs to be incremented/decremented for each pack_window accessed by any code. To faciliate that implementation we need to replace all uses of use_packed_git() and unuse_packed_git() with a different API that follows struct pack_window objects rather than struct packed_git.

sha1_file: remove recursion in packed_object_info packed_object_info() and packed_delta_info() were mutually recursive. The former would handle ordinary types and defer deltas to the latter; the latter would use the former to resolve the delta base. This arrangement, however, leads to trouble with threaded index-pack and long delta chains on platforms where thread stacks are small, as happened on OS X (512kB thread stacks by default) with the chromium repo. The task of the two functions is not all that hard to describe without any recursion, however. It proceeds in three steps: - determine the representation type and size, based on the outermost object (delta or not) - follow through the delta chain, if any - determine the object type from what is found at the end of the delta chain The only complication stems from the error recovery. If parsing fails at any step, we want to mark that object (within the pack) as bad and try getting the corresponding SHA1 from elsewhere. If that also fails, we want to repeat this process back up the delta chain until we find a reasonable solution or conclude that there is no way to reconstruct the object. (This is conveniently checked by t5303.) To achieve that within the pack, we keep track of the entire delta chain in a stack. When things go sour, we process that stack from the top, marking entries as bad and attempting to re-resolve by sha1. To avoid excessive malloc(), the stack starts out with a small stack-allocated array. The choice of 64 is based on the default of pack.depth, which is 50, in the hope that it covers "most" delta chains without any need for malloc(). It's much harder to make the actual re-resolving by sha1 nonrecursive, so we skip that. If you can't afford *that* recursion, your corruption problems are more serious than your stack size problems.

Replace use_packed_git with window cursors. Part of the implementation concept of the sliding mmap window for pack access is to permit multiple windows per pack to be mapped independently. Since the inuse_cnt is associated with the mmap and not with the file, this value is in struct pack_window and needs to be incremented/decremented for each pack_window accessed by any code. To faciliate that implementation we need to replace all uses of use_packed_git() and unuse_packed_git() with a different API that follows struct pack_window objects rather than struct packed_git. The way this works is when we need to start accessing a pack for the first time we should setup a new window 'cursor' by declaring a local and setting it to NULL: struct pack_windows *w_curs = NULL; To obtain the memory region which contains a specific section of the pack file we invoke use_pack(), supplying the address of our current window cursor: unsigned int len; unsigned char *addr = use_pack(p, &w_curs, offset, &len); the returned address `addr` will be the first byte at `offset` within the pack file. The optional variable len will also be updated with the number of bytes remaining following the address. Multiple calls to use_pack() with the same window cursor will update the window cursor, moving it from one window to another when necessary. In this way each window cursor variable maintains only one struct pack_window inuse at a time. Finally before exiting the scope which originally declared the window cursor we must invoke unuse_pack() to unuse the current window (which may be different from the one that was first obtained from use_pack): unuse_pack(&w_curs); This implementation is still not complete with regards to multiple windows, as only one window per pack file is supported right now.

Fix incorrect error check while reading deflated pack data The loop in get_size_from_delta() feeds a deflated delta data from the pack stream _until_ we get inflated result of 20 bytes[*] or we reach the end of stream. Side note. This magic number 20 does not have anything to do with the size of the hash we use, but comes from 1a3b55c (reduce delta head inflated size, 2006-10-18). The loop reads like this: do { in = use_pack(); stream.next_in = in; st = git_inflate(&stream, Z_FINISH); curpos += stream.next_in - in; } while ((st == Z_OK || st == Z_BUF_ERROR) && stream.total_out < sizeof(delta_head)); This git_inflate() can return: - Z_STREAM_END, if use_pack() fed it enough input and the delta itself was smaller than 20 bytes; - Z_OK, when some progress has been made; - Z_BUF_ERROR, if no progress is possible, because we either ran out of input (due to corrupt pack), or we ran out of output before we saw the end of the stream. The fix b3118bd (sha1_file: Fix infinite loop when pack is corrupted, 2009-10-14) attempted was against a corruption that appears to be a valid stream that produces a result larger than the output buffer, but we are not even trying to read the stream to the end in this loop. If avail_out becomes zero, total_out will be the same as sizeof(delta_head) so the loop will terminate without the "fix". There is no fix from b3118bd needed for this loop, in other words. The loop in unpack_compressed_entry() is quite a different story. It feeds a deflated stream (either delta or base) and allows the stream to produce output up to what we expect but no more. do { in = use_pack(); stream.next_in = in; st = git_inflate(&stream, Z_FINISH); curpos += stream.next_in - in; } while (st == Z_OK || st == Z_BUF_ERROR) This _does_ risk falling into an endless interation, as we can exhaust avail_out if the length we expect is smaller than what the stream wants to produce (due to pack corruption). In such a case, avail_out will become zero and inflate() will return Z_BUF_ERROR, while avail_in may (or may not) be zero. But this is not a right fix: do { in = use_pack(); stream.next_in = in; st = git_inflate(&stream, Z_FINISH); + if (st == Z_BUF_ERROR && (stream.avail_in || !stream.avail_out) + break; /* wants more input??? */ curpos += stream.next_in - in; } while (st == Z_OK || st == Z_BUF_ERROR) as Z_BUF_ERROR from inflate() may be telling us that avail_in has also run out before reading the end of stream marker. In such a case, both avail_in and avail_out would be zero, and the loop should iterate to allow the end of stream marker to be seen by inflate from the input stream. The right fix for this loop is likely to be to increment the initial avail_out by one (we allocate one extra byte to terminate it with NUL anyway, so there is no risk to overrun the buffer), and break out if we see that avail_out has become zero, in order to detect that the stream wants to produce more than what we expect. After the loop, we have a check that exactly tests this condition: if ((st != Z_STREAM_END) || stream.total_out != size) { free(buffer); return NULL; } So here is a patch (without my previous botched attempts) to fix this issue. The first hunk reverts the corresponding hunk from b3118bd, and the second hunk is the same fix proposed earlier. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

delta_base_cache: use hashmap.h The fundamental data structure of the delta base cache is a hash table mapping pairs of "(packfile, offset)" into structs containing the actual object data. The hash table implementation dates back to e5e0161 (Implement a simple delta_base cache, 2007-03-17), and uses a fixed-size table. The current size is a hard-coded 256 entries. Because we need to be able to remove objects from the hash table, entry lookup does not do any kind of probing to handle collisions. Colliding items simply replace whatever is in their slot. As a result, we have fewer usable slots than even the 256 we allocate. At half full, each new item has a 50% chance of displacing another one. Or another way to think about it: every item has a 1/256 chance of being ejected due to hash collision, without regard to our LRU strategy. So it would be interesting to see the effect of increasing the cache size on the runtime for some common operations. As with the previous patch, we'll measure "git log --raw" for tree-only operations, and "git log -Sfoo --raw" for operations that touch trees and blobs. All times are wall-clock best-of-3, done against fully packed repos with --depth=50, and the default core.deltaBaseCacheLimit of 96MB. Here are timings for various values of MAX_DELTA_CACHE against git.git (the asterisk marks the minimum time for each operation): MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m02.227s 0m12.821s 512 0m02.143s 0m10.602s 1024 0m02.127s 0m08.642s 2048 0m02.148s 0m07.123s 4096 0m02.194s 0m06.448s* 8192 0m02.239s 0m06.504s 16384 0m02.144s* 0m06.502s 32768 0m02.202s 0m06.622s 65536 0m02.230s 0m06.677s The log-raw case isn't changed much at all here (probably because our trees just aren't that big in the first place, or possibly because we have so _few_ trees in git.git that the 256-entry cache is enough). But once we start putting blobs in the cache, too, we see a big improvement (almost 50%). The curve levels off around 4096, which means that we can hold about that many entries before hitting the 96MB memory limit (or possibly that the workload is small enough that there is simply no more work to be optimized out by caching more). (As a side note, I initially timed my existing git.git pack, which was a base of --aggressive combined with some pulls on top. So it had quite a few deeper delta chains. The 256-cache case was more like 15s, and it still dropped to ~6.5s in the same way). Here are the timings for linux.git: MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m41.661s 5m12.410s 512 0m39.547s 5m07.920s 1024 0m37.054s 4m54.666s 2048 0m35.871s 4m41.194s* 4096 0m34.646s 4m51.648s 8192 0m33.881s 4m55.342s 16384 0m35.190s 5m00.122s 32768 0m35.060s 4m58.851s 65536 0m33.311s* 4m51.420s As we grow we see a nice 20% speedup in the tree traversal, and more modest 10% in the log-S. This is probably an indication that we are bound less by the number of entries, and more by the memory limit (more on that below). What is interesting is that the numbers bounce around a bit; increasing the number of entries isn't always a strict improvement. Partially this is due to noise in the measurement. But it may also be an indication that our LRU ejection scheme is not optimal. The smaller cache sizes introduce some randomness into the ejection (due to collisions), which may sometimes work in our favor (and sometimes not!). So what is the optimal setting of MAX_DELTA_CACHE? The "bouncing" in the linux.git log-S numbers notwithstanding, it mostly seems like bigger is better. And even if we were to try to find a "sweet spot", these are just two repositories, that are not necessarily representative. The shape of history, the size of trees and blobs, the memory limit configuration, etc, all will affect the outcome. Rather than trying to find the "right" number, another strategy is to just switch to a hash table that can actually store collisions: namely our hashmap.h implementation. Here are numbers for that compared to the "best" we saw from adjusting MAX_DELTA_CACHE: | log-raw | log-S | best hashmap | best hashmap | --------- --------- | --------- --------- git | 0m02.144s 0m02.144s | 0m06.448s 0m06.688s linux | 0m33.311s 0m33.092s | 4m41.194s 4m57.172s We can see the results are similar in most cases, which is what we'd expect. We're not ejecting due to collisions at all, so this is purely representing the LRU. So really, we'd expect this to model most closely the larger values of the static MAX_DELTA_CACHE limit. And that does seem to be what's happening, including the "bounce" in the linux log-S case. So while the value for that case _isn't_ as good as the optimal one measured above (which was 2048 entries), given the bouncing I'm hesitant to suggest that 2048 is any kind of optimum (not even for linux.git, let alone as a general rule). The generic hashmap has the appeal that it drops the number of tweakable numbers by one, which means we can focus on tuning other elements, like the LRU strategy or the core.deltaBaseCacheLimit setting. And indeed, if we bump the cache limit to 1G (which is probably silly for general use, but maybe something people with big workstations would want to do), the linux.git log-S time drops to 3m32s. That's something you really _can't_ do easily with the static hash table, because the number of entries needs to grow in proportion to the memory limit (so 2048 is almost certainly not going to be the right value there). This patch takes that direction, and drops the static hash table entirely in favor of using the hashmap.h API.

We're not ejecting due to collisions at all, so this is purely representing the LRU. So really, we'd expect this to model most closely the larger values of the static MAX_DELTA_CACHE limit. And that does seem to be what's happening, including the "bounce" in the linux log-S case. So while the value for that case _isn't_ as good as the optimal one measured above (which was 2048 entries), given the bouncing I'm hesitant to suggest that 2048 is any kind of optimum (not even for linux.git, let alone as a general rule). The generic hashmap has the appeal that it drops the number of tweakable numbers by one, which means we can focus on tuning other elements, like the LRU strategy or the core.deltaBaseCacheLimit setting. And indeed, if we bump the cache limit to 1G (which is probably silly for general use, but maybe something people with big workstations would want to do), the linux.git log-S time drops to 3m32s. That's something you really _can't_ do easily with the static hash table, because the number of entries needs to grow in proportion to the memory limit (so 2048 is almost certainly not going to be the right value there). This patch takes that direction, and drops the static hash table entirely in favor of using the hashmap.h API.

delta_base_cache: use hashmap.h The fundamental data structure of the delta base cache is a hash table mapping pairs of "(packfile, offset)" into structs containing the actual object data. The hash table implementation dates back to e5e0161 (Implement a simple delta_base cache, 2007-03-17), and uses a fixed-size table. The current size is a hard-coded 256 entries. Because we need to be able to remove objects from the hash table, entry lookup does not do any kind of probing to handle collisions. Colliding items simply replace whatever is in their slot. As a result, we have fewer usable slots than even the 256 we allocate. At half full, each new item has a 50% chance of displacing another one. Or another way to think about it: every item has a 1/256 chance of being ejected due to hash collision, without regard to our LRU strategy. So it would be interesting to see the effect of increasing the cache size on the runtime for some common operations. As with the previous patch, we'll measure "git log --raw" for tree-only operations, and "git log -Sfoo --raw" for operations that touch trees and blobs. All times are wall-clock best-of-3, done against fully packed repos with --depth=50, and the default core.deltaBaseCacheLimit of 96MB. Here are timings for various values of MAX_DELTA_CACHE against git.git (the asterisk marks the minimum time for each operation): MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m02.227s 0m12.821s 512 0m02.143s 0m10.602s 1024 0m02.127s 0m08.642s 2048 0m02.148s 0m07.123s 4096 0m02.194s 0m06.448s* 8192 0m02.239s 0m06.504s 16384 0m02.144s* 0m06.502s 32768 0m02.202s 0m06.622s 65536 0m02.230s 0m06.677s The log-raw case isn't changed much at all here (probably because our trees just aren't that big in the first place, or possibly because we have so _few_ trees in git.git that the 256-entry cache is enough). But once we start putting blobs in the cache, too, we see a big improvement (almost 50%). The curve levels off around 4096, which means that we can hold about that many entries before hitting the 96MB memory limit (or possibly that the workload is small enough that there is simply no more work to be optimized out by caching more). (As a side note, I initially timed my existing git.git pack, which was a base of --aggressive combined with some pulls on top. So it had quite a few deeper delta chains. The 256-cache case was more like 15s, and it still dropped to ~6.5s in the same way). Here are the timings for linux.git: MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m41.661s 5m12.410s 512 0m39.547s 5m07.920s 1024 0m37.054s 4m54.666s 2048 0m35.871s 4m41.194s* 4096 0m34.646s 4m51.648s 8192 0m33.881s 4m55.342s 16384 0m35.190s 5m00.122s 32768 0m35.060s 4m58.851s 65536 0m33.311s* 4m51.420s As we grow we see a nice 20% speedup in the tree traversal, and more modest 10% in the log-S. This is probably an indication that we are bound less by the number of entries, and more by the memory limit (more on that below). What is interesting is that the numbers bounce around a bit; increasing the number of entries isn't always a strict improvement. Partially this is due to noise in the measurement. But it may also be an indication that our LRU ejection scheme is not optimal. The smaller cache sizes introduce some randomness into the ejection (due to collisions), which may sometimes work in our favor (and sometimes not!). So what is the optimal setting of MAX_DELTA_CACHE?

delta_base_cache: use hashmap.h The fundamental data structure of the delta base cache is a hash table mapping pairs of "(packfile, offset)" into structs containing the actual object data. The hash table implementation dates back to e5e0161 (Implement a simple delta_base cache, 2007-03-17), and uses a fixed-size table. The current size is a hard-coded 256 entries. Because we need to be able to remove objects from the hash table, entry lookup does not do any kind of probing to handle collisions. Colliding items simply replace whatever is in their slot. As a result, we have fewer usable slots than even the 256 we allocate. At half full, each new item has a 50% chance of displacing another one. Or another way to think about it: every item has a 1/256 chance of being ejected due to hash collision, without regard to our LRU strategy. So it would be interesting to see the effect of increasing the cache size on the runtime for some common operations. As with the previous patch, we'll measure "git log --raw" for tree-only operations, and "git log -Sfoo --raw" for operations that touch trees and blobs. All times are wall-clock best-of-3, done against fully packed repos with --depth=50, and the default core.deltaBaseCacheLimit of 96MB. Here are timings for various values of MAX_DELTA_CACHE against git.git (the asterisk marks the minimum time for each operation): MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m02.227s 0m12.821s 512 0m02.143s 0m10.602s 1024 0m02.127s 0m08.642s 2048 0m02.148s 0m07.123s 4096 0m02.194s 0m06.448s* 8192 0m02.239s 0m06.504s 16384 0m02.144s* 0m06.502s 32768 0m02.202s 0m06.622s 65536 0m02.230s 0m06.677s The log-raw case isn't changed much at all here (probably because our trees just aren't that big in the first place, or possibly because we have so _few_ trees in git.git that the 256-entry cache is enough). But once we start putting blobs in the cache, too, we see a big improvement (almost 50%). The curve levels off around 4096, which means that we can hold about that many entries before hitting the 96MB memory limit (or possibly that the workload is small enough that there is simply no more work to be optimized out by caching more). (As a side note, I initially timed my existing git.git pack, which was a base of --aggressive combined with some pulls on top. So it had quite a few deeper delta chains. The 256-cache case was more like 15s, and it still dropped to ~6.5s in the same way). Here are the timings for linux.git: MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m41.661s 5m12.410s 512 0m39.547s 5m07.920s 1024 0m37.054s 4m54.666s 2048 0m35.871s 4m41.194s* 4096 0m34.646s 4m51.648s 8192 0m33.881s 4m55.342s 16384 0m35.190s 5m00.122s 32768 0m35.060s 4m58.851s 65536 0m33.311s* 4m51.420s As we grow we see a nice 20% speedup in the tree traversal, and more modest 10% in the log-S. This is probably an indication that we are bound less by the number of entries, and more by the memory limit (more on that below). What is interesting is that the numbers bounce around a bit; increasing the number of entries isn't always a strict improvement. Partially this is due to noise in the measurement. But it may also be an indication that our LRU ejection scheme is not optimal. The smaller cache sizes introduce some randomness into the ejection (due to collisions), which may sometimes work in our favor (and sometimes not!). So what is the optimal setting of MAX_DELTA_CACHE? The "bouncing" in the linux.git log-S numbers notwithstanding, it mostly seems like bigger is better. And even if we were to try to find a "sweet spot", these are just two repositories, that are not necessarily representative. The shape of history, the size of trees and blobs, the memory limit configuration, etc, all will affect the outcome. Rather than trying to find the "right" number, another strategy is to just switch to a hash table that can actually store collisions: namely our hashmap.h implementation. Here are numbers for that compared to the "best" we saw from adjusting MAX_DELTA_CACHE: | log-raw | log-S | best hashmap | best hashmap | --------- --------- | --------- --------- git | 0m02.144s 0m02.144s | 0m06.448s 0m06.688s linux | 0m33.311s 0m33.092s | 4m41.194s 4m57.172s We can see the results are similar in most cases, which is what we'd expect. We're not ejecting due to collisions at all, so this is purely representing the LRU. So really, we'd expect this to model most closely the larger values of the static MAX_DELTA_CACHE limit. And that does seem to be what's happening, including the "bounce" in the linux log-S case. So while the value for that case _isn't_ as good as the optimal one measured above (which was 2048 entries), given the bouncing I'm hesitant to suggest that 2048 is any kind of optimum (not even for linux.git, let alone as a general rule). The generic hashmap has the appeal that it drops the number of tweakable numbers by one, which means we can focus on tuning other elements, like the LRU strategy or the core.deltaBaseCacheLimit setting. And indeed, if we bump the cache limit to 1G (which is probably silly for general use, but maybe something people with big workstations would want to do), the linux.git log-S time drops to 3m32s. That's something you really _can't_ do easily with the static hash table, because the number of entries needs to grow in proportion to the memory limit (so 2048 is almost certainly not going to be the right value there).

Because we need to be able to remove objects from the hash table, entry lookup does not do any kind of probing to handle collisions. Colliding items simply replace whatever is in their slot. As a result, we have fewer usable slots than even the 256 we allocate. At half full, each new item has a 50% chance of displacing another one. Or another way to think about it: every item has a 1/256 chance of being ejected due to hash collision, without regard to our LRU strategy. So it would be interesting to see the effect of increasing the cache size on the runtime for some common operations. As with the previous patch, we'll measure "git log --raw" for tree-only operations, and "git log -Sfoo --raw" for operations that touch trees and blobs. All times are wall-clock best-of-3, done against fully packed repos with --depth=50, and the default core.deltaBaseCacheLimit of 96MB. Here are timings for various values of MAX_DELTA_CACHE against git.git (the asterisk marks the minimum time for each operation): MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m02.227s 0m12.821s 512 0m02.143s 0m10.602s 1024 0m02.127s 0m08.642s 2048 0m02.148s 0m07.123s 4096 0m02.194s 0m06.448s* 8192 0m02.239s 0m06.504s 16384 0m02.144s* 0m06.502s 32768 0m02.202s 0m06.622s 65536 0m02.230s 0m06.677s The log-raw case isn't changed much at all here (probably because our trees just aren't that big in the first place, or possibly because we have so _few_ trees in git.git that the 256-entry cache is enough). But once we start putting blobs in the cache, too, we see a big improvement (almost 50%). The curve levels off around 4096, which means that we can hold about that many entries before hitting the 96MB memory limit (or possibly that the workload is small enough that there is simply no more work to be optimized out by caching more). (As a side note, I initially timed my existing git.git pack, which was a base of --aggressive combined with some pulls on top. So it had quite a few deeper delta chains. The 256-cache case was more like 15s, and it still dropped to ~6.5s in the same way). Here are the timings for linux.git: MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m41.661s 5m12.410s 512 0m39.547s 5m07.920s 1024 0m37.054s 4m54.666s 2048 0m35.871s 4m41.194s* 4096 0m34.646s 4m51.648s 8192 0m33.881s 4m55.342s 16384 0m35.190s 5m00.122s 32768 0m35.060s 4m58.851s 65536 0m33.311s* 4m51.420s As we grow we see a nice 20% speedup in the tree traversal, and more modest 10% in the log-S. This is probably an indication that we are bound less by the number of entries, and more by the memory limit (more on that below). What is interesting is that the numbers bounce around a bit; increasing the number of entries isn't always a strict improvement. Partially this is due to noise in the measurement. But it may also be an indication that our LRU ejection scheme is not optimal. The smaller cache sizes introduce some randomness into the ejection (due to collisions), which may sometimes work in our favor (and sometimes not!). So what is the optimal setting of MAX_DELTA_CACHE? The "bouncing" in the linux.git log-S numbers notwithstanding, it mostly seems like bigger is better. And even if we were to try to find a "sweet spot", these are just two repositories, that are not necessarily representative. The shape of history, the size of trees and blobs, the memory limit configuration, etc, all will affect the outcome. Rather than trying to find the "right" number, another strategy is to just switch to a hash table that can actually store collisions: namely our hashmap.h implementation. Here are numbers for that compared to the "best" we saw from adjusting MAX_DELTA_CACHE: | log-raw | log-S | best hashmap | best hashmap | --------- --------- | --------- --------- git | 0m02.144s 0m02.144s | 0m06.448s 0m06.688s linux | 0m33.311s 0m33.092s | 4m41.194s 4m57.172s We can see the results are similar in most cases, which is what we'd expect. We're not ejecting due to collisions at all, so this is purely representing the LRU. So really, we'd expect this to model most closely the larger values of the static MAX_DELTA_CACHE limit. And that does seem to be what's happening, including the "bounce" in the linux log-S case. So while the value for that case _isn't_ as good as the optimal one measured above (which was 2048 entries), given the bouncing I'm hesitant to suggest that 2048 is any kind of optimum (not even for linux.git, let alone as a general rule). The generic hashmap has the appeal that it drops the number of tweakable numbers by one, which means we can focus on tuning other elements, like the LRU strategy or the core.deltaBaseCacheLimit setting. And indeed, if we bump the cache limit to 1G (which is probably silly for general use, but maybe something people with big workstations would want to do), the linux.git log-S time drops to 3m32s. That's something you really _can't_ do easily with the static hash table, because the number of entries needs to grow in proportion to the memory limit (so 2048 is almost certainly not going to be the right value there). This patch takes that direction, and drops the static hash table entirely in favor of using the hashmap.h API.

Here are timings for various values of MAX_DELTA_CACHE against git.git (the asterisk marks the minimum time for each operation): MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m02.227s 0m12.821s 512 0m02.143s 0m10.602s 1024 0m02.127s 0m08.642s 2048 0m02.148s 0m07.123s 4096 0m02.194s 0m06.448s* 8192 0m02.239s 0m06.504s 16384 0m02.144s* 0m06.502s 32768 0m02.202s 0m06.622s 65536 0m02.230s 0m06.677s The log-raw case isn't changed much at all here (probably because our trees just aren't that big in the first place, or possibly because we have so _few_ trees in git.git that the 256-entry cache is enough). But once we start putting blobs in the cache, too, we see a big improvement (almost 50%). The curve levels off around 4096, which means that we can hold about that many entries before hitting the 96MB memory limit (or possibly that the workload is small enough that there is simply no more work to be optimized out by caching more). (As a side note, I initially timed my existing git.git pack, which was a base of --aggressive combined with some pulls on top. So it had quite a few deeper delta chains. The 256-cache case was more like 15s, and it still dropped to ~6.5s in the same way). Here are the timings for linux.git: MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m41.661s 5m12.410s 512 0m39.547s 5m07.920s 1024 0m37.054s 4m54.666s 2048 0m35.871s 4m41.194s* 4096 0m34.646s 4m51.648s 8192 0m33.881s 4m55.342s 16384 0m35.190s 5m00.122s 32768 0m35.060s 4m58.851s 65536 0m33.311s* 4m51.420s As we grow we see a nice 20% speedup in the tree traversal, and more modest 10% in the log-S. This is probably an indication that we are bound less by the number of entries, and more by the memory limit (more on that below). What is interesting is that the numbers bounce around a bit; increasing the number of entries isn't always a strict improvement. Partially this is due to noise in the measurement. But it may also be an indication that our LRU ejection scheme is not optimal. The smaller cache sizes introduce some randomness into the ejection (due to collisions), which may sometimes work in our favor (and sometimes not!). So what is the optimal setting of MAX_DELTA_CACHE? The "bouncing" in the linux.git log-S numbers notwithstanding, it mostly seems like bigger is better. And even if we were to try to find a "sweet spot", these are just two repositories, that are not necessarily representative. The shape of history, the size of trees and blobs, the memory limit configuration, etc, all will affect the outcome. Rather than trying to find the "right" number, another strategy is to just switch to a hash table that can actually store collisions: namely our hashmap.h implementation. Here are numbers for that compared to the "best" we saw from adjusting MAX_DELTA_CACHE: | log-raw | log-S | best hashmap | best hashmap | --------- --------- | --------- --------- git | 0m02.144s 0m02.144s | 0m06.448s 0m06.688s linux | 0m33.311s 0m33.092s | 4m41.194s 4m57.172s We can see the results are similar in most cases, which is what we'd expect. We're not ejecting due to collisions at all, so this is purely representing the LRU. So really, we'd expect this to model most closely the larger values of the static MAX_DELTA_CACHE limit. And that does seem to be what's happening, including the "bounce" in the linux log-S case. So while the value for that case _isn't_ as good as the optimal one measured above (which was 2048 entries), given the bouncing I'm hesitant to suggest that 2048 is any kind of optimum (not even for linux.git, let alone as a general rule). The generic hashmap has the appeal that it drops the number of tweakable numbers by one, which means we can focus on tuning other elements, like the LRU strategy or the core.deltaBaseCacheLimit setting. And indeed, if we bump the cache limit to 1G (which is probably silly for general use, but maybe something people with big workstations would want to do), the linux.git log-S time drops to 3m32s. That's something you really _can't_ do easily with the static hash table, because the number of entries needs to grow in proportion to the memory limit (so 2048 is almost certainly not going to be the right value there). This patch takes that direction, and drops the static hash table entirely in favor of using the hashmap.h API.

Here are timings for various values of MAX_DELTA_CACHE against git.git (the asterisk marks the minimum time for each operation): MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m02.227s 0m12.821s 512 0m02.143s 0m10.602s 1024 0m02.127s 0m08.642s 2048 0m02.148s 0m07.123s 4096 0m02.194s 0m06.448s* 8192 0m02.239s 0m06.504s 16384 0m02.144s* 0m06.502s 32768 0m02.202s 0m06.622s 65536 0m02.230s 0m06.677s The log-raw case isn't changed much at all here (probably because our trees just aren't that big in the first place, or possibly because we have so _few_ trees in git.git that the 256-entry cache is enough). But once we start putting blobs in the cache, too, we see a big improvement (almost 50%). The curve levels off around 4096, which means that we can hold about that many entries before hitting the 96MB memory limit (or possibly that the workload is small enough that there is simply no more work to be optimized out by caching more). (As a side note, I initially timed my existing git.git pack, which was a base of --aggressive combined with some pulls on top. So it had quite a few deeper delta chains. The 256-cache case was more like 15s, and it still dropped to ~6.5s in the same way). Here are the timings for linux.git: MAX_DELTA_CACHE log-raw log-S --------------- --------- --------- 256 0m41.661s 5m12.410s 512 0m39.547s 5m07.920s 1024 0m37.054s 4m54.666s 2048 0m35.871s 4m41.194s* 4096 0m34.646s 4m51.648s 8192 0m33.881s 4m55.342s 16384 0m35.190s 5m00.122s 32768 0m35.060s 4m58.851s 65536 0m33.311s* 4m51.420s As we grow we see a nice 20% speedup in the tree traversal, and more modest 10% in the log-S. This is probably an indication that we are bound less by the number of entries, and more by the memory limit (more on that below). What is interesting is that the numbers bounce around a bit; increasing the number of entries isn't always a strict improvement. Partially this is due to noise in the measurement. But it may also be an indication that our LRU ejection scheme is not optimal. The smaller cache sizes introduce some randomness into the ejection (due to collisions), which may sometimes work in our favor (and sometimes not!). So what is the optimal setting of MAX_DELTA_CACHE? The "bouncing" in the linux.git log-S numbers notwithstanding, it mostly seems like bigger is better. And even if we were to try to find a "sweet spot", these are just two repositories, that are not necessarily representative. The shape of history, the size of trees and blobs, the memory limit configuration, etc, all will affect the outcome. Rather than trying to find the "right" number, another strategy is to just switch to a hash table that can actually store collisions: namely our hashmap.h implementation. Here are numbers for that compared to the "best" we saw from adjusting MAX_DELTA_CACHE: | log-raw | log-S | best hashmap | best hashmap | --------- --------- | --------- --------- git | 0m02.144s 0m02.144s | 0m06.448s 0m06.688s linux | 0m33.311s 0m33.092s | 4m41.194s 4m57.172s We can see the results are similar in most cases, which is what we'd expect. We're not ejecting due to collisions at all, so this is purely representing the LRU. So really, we'd expect this to model most closely the larger values of the static MAX_DELTA_CACHE limit. And that does seem to be what's happening, including the "bounce" in the linux log-S case. So while the value for that case _isn't_ as good as the optimal one measured above (which was 2048 entries), given the bouncing I'm hesitant to suggest that 2048 is any kind of optimum (not even for linux.git, let alone as a general rule). The generic hashmap has the appeal that it drops the number of tweakable numbers by one, which means we can focus on tuning other elements, like the LRU strategy or the core.deltaBaseCacheLimit setting. And indeed, if we bump the cache limit to 1G (which is probably silly for general use, but maybe something people with big workstations would want to do), the linux.git log-S time drops to 3m32s. That's something you really _can't_ do easily with the static hash table, because the number of entries needs to grow in proportion to the memory limit (so 2048 is almost certainly not going to be the right value there). This patch takes that direction, and drops the static hash table entirely in favor of using the hashmap.h API.

close another possibility for propagating pack corruption Abstract -------- With index v2 we have a per object CRC to allow quick and safe reuse of pack data when repacking. This, however, doesn't currently prevent a stealth corruption from being propagated into a new pack when _not_ reusing pack data as demonstrated by the modification to t5302 included here. The Context ----------- The Git database is all checksummed with SHA1 hashes. Any kind of corruption can be confirmed by verifying this per object hash against corresponding data. However this can be costly to perform systematically and therefore this check is often not performed at run time when accessing the object database. First, the loose object format is entirely compressed with zlib which already provide a CRC verification of its own when inflating data. Any disk corruption would be caught already in this case. Then, packed objects are also compressed with zlib but only for their actual payload. The object headers and delta base references are not deflated for obvious performance reasons, however this leave them vulnerable to potentially undetected disk corruptions. Object types are often validated against the expected type when they're requested, and deflated size must always match the size recorded in the object header, so those cases are pretty much covered as well. Where corruptions could go unnoticed is in the delta base reference. Of course, in the OBJ_REF_DELTA case, the odds for a SHA1 reference to get corrupted so it actually matches the SHA1 of another object with the same size (the delta header stores the expected size of the base object to apply against) are virtually zero. In the OBJ_OFS_DELTA case, the reference is a pack offset which would have to match the start boundary of a different base object but still with the same size, and although this is relatively much more "probable" than in the OBJ_REF_DELTA case, the probability is also about zero in absolute terms. Still, the possibility exists as demonstrated in t5302 and is certainly greater than a SHA1 collision, especially in the OBJ_OFS_DELTA case which is now the default when repacking. Again, repacking by reusing existing pack data is OK since the per object CRC provided by index v2 guards against any such corruptions. What t5302 failed to test is a full repack in such case. The Solution ------------ As unlikely as this kind of stealth corruption can be in practice, it certainly isn't acceptable to propagate it into a freshly created pack. But, because this is so unlikely, we don't want to pay the run time cost associated with extra validation checks all the time either. Furthermore, consequences of such corruption in anything but repacking should be rather visible, and even if it could be quite unpleasant, it still has far less severe consequences than actively creating bad packs. So the best compromize is to check packed object CRC when unpacking objects, and only during the compression/writing phase of a repack, and only when not streaming the result. The cost of this is minimal (less than 1% CPU time), and visible only with a full repack. Someone with a stats background could provide an objective evaluation of this, but I suspect that it's bad RAM that has more potential for data corruptions at this point, even in those cases where this extra check is not performed. Still, it is best to prevent a known hole for corruption when recreating object data into a new pack. What about the streamed pack case? Well, any client receiving a pack must always consider that pack as untrusty and perform full validation anyway, hence no such stealth corruption could be propagated to remote repositoryes already. It is therefore worthless doing local validation in that case. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Replace use_packed_git with window cursors. Part of the implementation concept of the sliding mmap window for pack access is to permit multiple windows per pack to be mapped independently. Since the inuse_cnt is associated with the mmap and not with the file, this value is in struct pack_window and needs to be incremented/decremented for each pack_window accessed by any code. To faciliate that implementation we need to replace all uses of use_packed_git() and unuse_packed_git() with a different API that follows struct pack_window objects rather than struct packed_git. The way this works is when we need to start accessing a pack for the first time we should setup a new window 'cursor' by declaring a local and setting it to NULL: struct pack_windows *w_curs = NULL; To obtain the memory region which contains a specific section of the pack file we invoke use_pack(), supplying the address of our current window cursor: unsigned int len; unsigned char *addr = use_pack(p, &w_curs, offset, &len); the returned address `addr` will be the first byte at `offset` within the pack file. The optional variable len will also be updated with the number of bytes remaining following the address. Multiple calls to use_pack() with the same window cursor will update the window cursor, moving it from one window to another when necessary. In this way each window cursor variable maintains only one struct pack_window inuse at a time. Finally before exiting the scope which originally declared the window cursor we must invoke unuse_pack() to unuse the current window (which may be different from the one that was first obtained from use_pack): unuse_pack(&w_curs); This implementation is still not complete with regards to multiple windows, as only one window per pack file is supported right now.

delta_base_cache: use hashmap.h The fundamental data structure of the delta base cache is a hash table mapping pairs of "(packfile, offset)" into structs containing the actual object data. The hash table implementation dates back to e5e0161 (Implement a simple delta_base cache, 2007-03-17), and uses a fixed-size table. The current size is a hard-coded 256 entries. Because we need to be able to remove objects from the hash table, entry lookup does not do any kind of probing to handle collisions. Colliding items simply replace whatever is in their slot. As a result, we have fewer usable slots than even the 256 we allocate. At half full, each new item has a 50% chance of displacing another one. Or another way to think about it: every item has a 1/256 chance of being ejected due to hash collision, without regard to our LRU strategy. So it would be interesting to see the effect of increasing the cache size on the runtime for some common operations. As with the previous patch, we'll measure "git log --raw" for tree-only operations, and "git log -Sfoo --raw" for operations that touch trees and blobs.

unpack_entry: do not die when we fail to apply a delta When we try to load an object from disk and fail, our general strategy is to see if we can get it from somewhere else (e.g., a loose object). That lets users fix corruption problems by copying known-good versions of objects into the object database. We already handle the case where we were not able to read the delta from disk. However, when we find that the delta we read does not apply, we simply die. This case is harder to trigger, as corruption in the delta data itself would trigger a crc error from zlib. However, a corruption that pointed us at the wrong delta base might cause it. We can do the same "fail and try to find the object elsewhere" trick instead of dying. This not only gives us a chance to recover, but also puts us on code paths that will alert the user to the problem (with the current message, they do not even know which sha1 caused the problem). Note that unlike some other pack corruptions, we do not recover automatically from this case when doing a repack. There is nothing apparently wrong with the delta, as it points to a valid, accessible object, and we realize the error only when the resulting size does not match up. And in theory, one could even have a case where the corrupted size is the same, and the problem would only be noticed by recomputing the sha1. We can get around this by recomputing the deltas with --no-reuse-delta, which our test does (and this is probably good advice for anyone recovering from pack corruption).

However, when we find that the delta we read does not apply, we simply die. This case is harder to trigger, as corruption in the delta data itself would trigger a crc error from zlib. However, a corruption that pointed us at the wrong delta base might cause it. We can do the same "fail and try to find the object elsewhere" trick instead of dying. This not only gives us a chance to recover, but also puts us on code paths that will alert the user to the problem (with the current message, they do not even know which sha1 caused the problem). Note that unlike some other pack corruptions, we do not recover automatically from this case when doing a repack. There is nothing apparently wrong with the delta, as it points to a valid, accessible object, and we realize the error only when the resulting size does not match up. And in theory, one could even have a case where the corrupted size is the same, and the problem would only be noticed by recomputing the sha1. We can get around this by recomputing the deltas with --no-reuse-delta, which our test does (and this is probably good advice for anyone recovering from pack corruption).

Replace use_packed_git with window cursors. Part of the implementation concept of the sliding mmap window for pack access is to permit multiple windows per pack to be mapped independently. Since the inuse_cnt is associated with the mmap and not with the file, this value is in struct pack_window and needs to be incremented/decremented for each pack_window accessed by any code. To faciliate that implementation we need to replace all uses of use_packed_git() and unuse_packed_git() with a different API that follows struct pack_window objects rather than struct packed_git. The way this works is when we need to start accessing a pack for the first time we should setup a new window 'cursor' by declaring a local and setting it to NULL: struct pack_windows *w_curs = NULL; To obtain the memory region which contains a specific section of the pack file we invoke use_pack(), supplying the address of our current window cursor: unsigned int len; unsigned char *addr = use_pack(p, &w_curs, offset, &len); the returned address `addr` will be the first byte at `offset` within the pack file. The optional variable len will also be updated with the number of bytes remaining following the address. Multiple calls to use_pack() with the same window cursor will update the window cursor, moving it from one window to another when necessary. In this way each window cursor variable maintains only one struct pack_window inuse at a time. Finally before exiting the scope which originally declared the window cursor we must invoke unuse_pack() to unuse the current window (which may be different from the one that was first obtained from use_pack): unuse_pack(&w_curs); This implementation is still not complete with regards to multiple windows, as only one window per pack file is supported right now.

sha1-lookup: more memory efficient search in sorted list of SHA-1 Currently, when looking for a packed object from the pack idx, a simple binary search is used. A conventional binary search loop looks like this: unsigned lo, hi; do { unsigned mi = (lo + hi) / 2; int cmp = "entry pointed at by mi" minus "target"; if (!cmp) return mi; "mi is the wanted one" if (cmp > 0) hi = mi; "mi is larger than target" else lo = mi+1; "mi is smaller than target" } while (lo < hi); "did not find what we wanted" The invariants are: - When entering the loop, 'lo' points at a slot that is never above the target (it could be at the target), 'hi' points at a slot that is guaranteed to be above the target (it can never be at the target). - We find a point 'mi' between 'lo' and 'hi' ('mi' could be the same as 'lo', but never can be as high as 'hi'), and check if 'mi' hits the target. There are three cases: - if it is a hit, we have found what we are looking for; - if it is strictly higher than the target, we set it to 'hi', and repeat the search. - if it is strictly lower than the target, we update 'lo' to one slot after it, because we allow 'lo' to be at the target and 'mi' is known to be below the target. If the loop exits, there is no matching entry. When choosing 'mi', we do not have to take the "middle" but anywhere in between 'lo' and 'hi', as long as lo <= mi < hi is satisfied. When we somehow know that the distance between the target and 'lo' is much shorter than the target and 'hi', we could pick 'mi' that is much closer to 'lo' than (hi+lo)/2, which a conventional binary search would pick. This patch takes advantage of the fact that the SHA-1 is a good hash function, and as long as there are enough entries in the table, we can expect uniform distribution. An entry that begins with for example "deadbeef..." is much likely to appear much later than in the midway of a reasonably populated table. In fact, it can be expected to be near 87% (222/256) from the top of the table. This is a work-in-progress and has switches to allow easier experiments and debugging.

pack-objects: protect against disappearing packs It's possible that while pack-objects is running, a simultaneously running prune process might delete a pack that we are interested in. Because we load the pack indices early on, we know that the pack contains our item, but by the time we try to open and map it, it is gone. Since c715f78, we already protect against this in the normal object access code path, but pack-objects accesses the packs at a lower level. In the normal access path, we call find_pack_entry, which will call find_pack_entry_one on each pack index, which does the actual lookup. If it gets a hit, we will actually open and verify the validity of the matching packfile (using c715f78's is_pack_valid). If we can't open it, we'll issue a warning and pretend that we didn't find it, causing us to go on to the next pack (or on to loose objects). Furthermore, we will cache the descriptor to the opened packfile. Which means that later, when we actually try to access the object, we are likely to still have that packfile opened, and won't care if it has been unlinked from the filesystem. Notice the "likely" above. If there is another pack access in the interim, and we run out of descriptors, we could close the pack. And then a later attempt to access the closed pack could fail (we'll try to re-open it, of course, but it may have been deleted). In practice, this doesn't happen because we tend to look up items and then access them immediately. Pack-objects does not follow this code path. Instead, it accesses the packs at a much lower level, using find_pack_entry_one directly. This means we skip the is_pack_valid check, and may end up with the name of a packfile, but no open descriptor. We can add the same is_pack_valid check here. Unfortunately, the access patterns of pack-objects are not quite as nice for keeping lookup and object access together. We look up each object as we find out about it, and the only later when writing the packfile do we necessarily access it. Which means that the opened packfile may be closed in the interim. In practice, however, adding this check still has value, for three reasons. 1. If you have a reasonable number of packs and/or a reasonable file descriptor limit, you can keep all of your packs open simultaneously. If this is the case, then the race is impossible to trigger. 2. Even if you can't keep all packs open at once, you may end up keeping the deleted one open (i.e., you may get lucky). 3. The race window is shortened. You may notice early that the pack is gone, and not try to access it. Triggering the problem without this check means deleting the pack any time after we read the list of index files, but before we access the looked-up objects. Triggering it with this check means deleting the pack means deleting the pack after we do a lookup (and successfully access the packfile), but before we access the object. Which is a smaller window.

sha1_file: squelch "packfile cannot be accessed" warnings When we find an object in a packfile index, we make sure we can still open the packfile itself (or that it is already open), as it might have been deleted by a simultaneous repack. If we can't access the packfile, we print a warning for the user and tell the caller that we don't have the object (we can then look in other packfiles, or find a loose version, before giving up). The warning we print to the user isn't really accomplishing anything, and it is potentially confusing to users. In the normal case, it is complete noise; we find the object elsewhere, and the user does not have to care that we racily saw a packfile index that became stale. It didn't affect the operation at all. A possibly more interesting case is when we later can't find the object, and report failure to the user. In this case the warning could be considered a clue toward that ultimate failure. But it's not really a useful clue in practice. We wouldn't even print it consistently (since we are racing with another process, we might not even see the .idx file, or we might win the race and open the packfile, completing the operation). This patch drops the warning entirely (not only from the fill_pack_entry site, but also from an identical use in pack-objects). If we did find the warning interesting in the error case, we could stuff it away and reveal it to the user when we later die() due to the broken object. But that complexity just isn't worth it.

find_pack_entry: replace last_found_pack with MRU cache Each pack has an index for looking up entries in O(log n) time, but if we have multiple packs, we have to scan through them linearly. This can produce a measurable overhead for some operations. We dealt with this long ago in f7c22cc (always start looking up objects in the last used pack first, 2007-05-30), which keeps what is essentially a 1-element most-recently-used cache. In theory, we should be able to do better by keeping a similar but longer cache, that is the same length as the pack-list itself. Since we now have a convenient generic MRU structure, we can plug it in and measure. Here are the numbers for running p5303 against linux.git: Test HEAD^ HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5303.3: rev-list (1) 31.56(31.28+0.27) 31.30(31.08+0.20) -0.8% 5303.4: repack (1) 40.62(39.35+2.36) 40.60(39.27+2.44) -0.0% 5303.6: rev-list (50) 31.31(31.06+0.23) 31.23(31.00+0.22) -0.3% 5303.7: repack (50) 58.65(69.12+1.94) 58.27(68.64+2.05) -0.6% 5303.9: rev-list (1000) 38.74(38.40+0.33) 31.87(31.62+0.24) -17.7% 5303.10: repack (1000) 367.20(441.80+4.62) 342.00(414.04+3.72) -6.9% The main numbers of interest here are the rev-list ones (since that is exercising the normal object lookup code path). The single-pack case shouldn't improve at all; the 260ms speedup there is just part of the run-to-run noise (but it's important to note that we didn't make anything worse with the overhead of maintaining our cache). In the 50-pack case, we see similar results. There may be a slight improvement, but it's mostly within the noise. The 1000-pack case does show a big improvement, though. That carries over to the repack case, as well. Even though we haven't touched its pack-search loop yet, it does still do a lot of normal object lookups (e.g., for the internal revision walk), and so improves. As a point of reference, I also ran the 1000-pack test against a version of HEAD^ with the last_found_pack optimization disabled. It takes ~60s, so that gives an indication of how much even the single-element cache is helping. For comparison, here's a smaller repository, git.git: Test HEAD^ HEAD --------------------------------------------------------------------- 5303.3: rev-list (1) 1.56(1.54+0.01) 1.54(1.51+0.02) -1.3% 5303.4: repack (1) 1.84(1.80+0.10) 1.82(1.80+0.09) -1.1% 5303.6: rev-list (50) 1.58(1.55+0.02) 1.59(1.57+0.01) +0.6% 5303.7: repack (50) 2.50(3.18+0.04) 2.50(3.14+0.04) +0.0% 5303.9: rev-list (1000) 2.76(2.71+0.04) 2.24(2.21+0.02) -18.8% 5303.10: repack (1000) 13.21(19.56+0.25) 11.66(18.01+0.21) -11.7% You can see that the percentage improvement is similar. That's because the lookup we are optimizing is roughly O(nr_objects * nr_packs). Since the number of packs is constant in both tests, we'd expect the improvement to be linear in the number of objects. But the whole process is also linear in the number of objects, so the improvement is a constant factor. The exact improvement does also depend on the contents of the packs. In p5303, the extra packs all have 5 first-parent commits in them, which is a reasonable simulation of a pushed-to repository. But it also means that only 250 first-parent commits are in those packs (compared to almost 50,000 total in linux.git), and the rest are in the huge "base" pack. So once we start looking at history in taht big pack, that's where we'll find most everything, and even the 1-element cache gets close to 100% cache hits. You could almost certainly show better numbers with a more pathological case (e.g., distributing the objects more evenly across the packs). But that's simply not that realistic a scenario, so it makes more sense to focus on these numbers. The implementation itself is a straightforward application of the MRU code. We provide an MRU-ordered list of packs that shadows the packed_git list. This is easy to do because we only create and revise the pack list in one place. The "reprepare" code path actually drops the whole MRU and replaces it for simplicity. It would be more efficient to just add new entries, but there's not much point in optimizing here; repreparing happens rarely, and only after doing a lot of other expensive work. The key things to keep optimized are traversal (which is just a normal linked list, albeit with one extra level of indirection over the regular packed_git list), and marking (which is a constant number of pointer assignments, though slightly more than the old last_found_pack was; it doesn't seem to create a measurable slowdown, though).

find_pack_entry: replace last_found_pack with MRU cache Each pack has an index for looking up entries in O(log n) time, but if we have multiple packs, we have to scan through them linearly. This can produce a measurable overhead for some operations. We dealt with this long ago in f7c22cc (always start looking up objects in the last used pack first, 2007-05-30), which keeps what is essentially a 1-element most-recently-used cache.

As there are only three callers total, we just fix up each caller rather than keep a compatibility wrapper: 1.

enum object_type type;
provide an initializer for "struct object_info" An all-zero initializer is fine for this struct, but because the first element is a pointer, call sites need to know to use "NULL" instead of "0". Otherwise some static checkers like "sparse" will complain; see d099b71 (Fix some sparse warnings, 2013-07-18) for example. So let's provide an initializer to make this easier to get right. But let's also comment that memset() to zero is explicitly OK[1]. One of the callers embeds object_info in another struct which is initialized via memset (expand_data in builtin/cat-file.c). Since our subset of C doesn't allow assignment from a compound literal, handling this in any other way is awkward, so we'd like to keep the ability to initialize by memset(). By documenting this property, it should make anybody who wants to change the initializer think twice before doing so. There's one other caller of interest. In parse_sha1_header(), we did not initialize the struct fully in the first place. This turned out not to be a bug because the sub-function it calls does not look at any other fields except the ones we did initialize. But that assumption might not hold in the future, so it's a dangerous construct. This patch switches it to initializing the whole struct, which protects us against unexpected reads of the other fields. [1] Obviously using memset() to initialize a pointer violates the C standard, but we long ago decided that it was an acceptable tradeoff in the real world.

sha1_object_info_extended: make type calculation optional Each caller of sha1_object_info_extended sets up an object_info struct to tell the function which elements of the object it wants to get. Until now, getting the type of the object has always been required (and it is returned via the return type rather than a pointer in object_info). This can involve actually opening a loose object file to determine its type, or following delta chains to determine a packed file's base type. These effects produce a measurable slow-down when doing a "cat-file --batch-check" that does not include %(objecttype). This patch adds a "typep" query to struct object_info, so that it can be optionally queried just like size and disk_size. As a result, the return type of the function is no longer the object type, but rather 0/-1 for success/error. As there are only three callers total, we just fix up each caller rather than keep a compatibility wrapper: 1. The simpler sha1_object_info wrapper continues to always ask for and return the type field. 2. The istream_source function wants to know the type, and so always asks for it. 3. The cat-file batch code asks for the type only when %(objecttype) is part of the format string.

Create object subdirectories on demand This makes it possible to have a "sparse" git object subdirectory structure, something that has become much more attractive now that people use pack-files all the time. As a result of pack-files, a git object directory doesn't necessarily have any individual objects lying around, and in that case it's just wasting space to keep the empty first-level object directories around: on many filesystems the 256 empty directories will be aboue 1MB of diskspace. Even more importantly, after you re-pack a project that _used_ to be unpacked, you could be left with huge directories that no longer contain anything, but that waste space and take time to look through. With this change, "git prune-packed" can just do an rmdir() on the directories, and they'll get removed if empty, and re-created on demand. This patch also tries to fix up "write_sha1_from_fd()" to use the new common infrastructure for creating the object files, closing a hole where we might otherwise leave half-written objects in the object database. [jc: I unoptimized the part that really removes the fan-out directories to ease transition. init-db still wastes 1MB of diskspace to hold 256 empty fan-outs, and prune-packed rmdir()'s the grown but empty directories, but runs mkdir() immediately after that -- reducing the saving from 150KB to 146KB.

sha1_file.c:create_tmpfile(): Fix race when creating loose object dirs There are cases (e.g. when running concurrent fetches in a repo) where multiple Git processes concurrently attempt to create loose objects within the same objects/XX/ dir. The creation of the loose object files is (AFAICS) safe from races, but the creation of the objects/XX/ dir in which the loose objects reside is unsafe, for example: Two concurrent fetches - A and B. As part of its fetch, A needs to store 12aaaaa as a loose object. B, on the other hand, needs to store 12bbbbb as a loose object. The objects/12 directory does not already exist. Concurrently, both A and B determine that they need to create the objects/12 directory (because their first call to git_mkstemp_mode() within create_tmpfile() fails witn ENOENT). One of them - let's say A - executes the following mkdir() call before the other. This first call returns success, and A moves on. When B gets around to calling mkdir(), it fails with EEXIST, because A won the race. The mkdir() error causes B to return -1 from create_tmpfile(), which propagates all the way, resulting in the fetch failing with: error: unable to create temporary file: File exists fatal: failed to write object fatal: unpack-objects failed Although it's hard to add a testcase reproducing this issue, it's easy to provoke if we insert a sleep after the if (mkdir(buffer, 0777) || adjust_shared_perm(buffer)) return -1; block, and then run two concurrent "git fetch"es against the same repo. The fix is to simply handle mkdir() failing with EEXIST as a success. If EEXIST is somehow returned for the wrong reasons (because the relevant objects/XX is not a directory, or is otherwise unsuitable for object storage), the following call to adjust_shared_perm(), or ultimately the retried call to git_mkstemp_mode() will fail, and we end up returning error from create_tmpfile() in any case. Note that there are still cases where two users with unsuitable umasks in a shared repo can end up in two races where one user first wins the mkdir() race to create an objects/XX/ directory, and then the other user wins the adjust_shared_perms() race to chmod() that directory, but fails because it is (transiently, until the first users completes its chmod()) unwriteable to the other user. However, (an equivalent of) this race also exists before this patch, and is made no worse by this patch.

To do so we compute the SHA1 of the data being deflated _after_ the deflate operation has consumed that data, and make sure it matches with the expected SHA1. This way we can rely on the CRC32 checked by the inflate operation to provide a good indication that the data is still coherent with its SHA1 hash.

has_sha1_file: re-check pack directory before giving up When we read a sha1 file, we first look for a packed version, then a loose version, and then re-check the pack directory again before concluding that we cannot find it. This lets us handle a process that is writing to the repository simultaneously (e.g., receive-pack writing a new pack followed by a ref update, or git-repack packing existing loose objects into a new pack). However, we do not do the same trick with has_sha1_file; we only check the packed objects once, followed by loose objects. This means that we might incorrectly report that we do not have an object, even though we could find it if we simply re-checked the pack directory. By itself, this is usually not a big deal. The other process is running simultaneously, so we may run has_sha1_file before it writes, anyway. It is a race whether we see the object or not. However, we may also see other things the writing process has done (like updating refs); and in that case, we must be able to also see the new objects. For example, imagine we are doing a for_each_ref iteration, and somebody simultaneously pushes. Receive-pack may write the pack and update a ref after we have examined the objects/pack directory, but before the iteration gets to the updated ref. When we do finally see the updated ref, for_each_ref will call has_sha1_file to check whether the ref is broken. If has_sha1_file returns the wrong answer, we erroneously will think that the ref is broken. For a normal iteration without DO_FOR_EACH_INCLUDE_BROKEN, this means that the caller does not see the ref at all (neither the old nor the new value). So not only will we fail to see the new value of the ref (which is acceptable, since we are running simultaneously with the writer, and we might well read the ref before the writer commits its write), but we will not see the old value either. For programs that act on reachability like pack-objects or prune, this can cause data loss, as we may see the objects referenced by the original ref value as dangling (and either omit them from the pack, or delete them via prune). There's no test included here, because the success case is two processes running simultaneously forever. But you can replicate the issue with: # base.sh # run this in one terminal; it creates and pushes # repeatedly to a repository git init parent && (cd parent && # create a base commit that will trigger us looking at # the objects/pack directory before we hit the updated ref echo content >file && git add file && git commit -m base && # set the unpack limit abnormally low, which # lets us simulate full-size pushes using tiny ones git config receive.unpackLimit 1 ) && git clone parent child && cd child && n=0 && while true; do echo $n >file && git add file && git commit -m $n && git push origin HEAD:refs/remotes/child/master && n=$(($n + 1)) done # fsck.sh # now run this simultaneously in another terminal; it # repeatedly fscks, looking for us to consider the # newly-pushed ref broken. We cannot use for-each-ref # here, as it uses DO_FOR_EACH_INCLUDE_BROKEN, which # skips the has_sha1_file check (and if it wants # more information on the object, it will actually read # the object, which does the proper two-step lookup) cd parent && while true; do broken=`git fsck 2>&1 | grep remotes/child` if test -n "$broken"; then echo $broken exit 1 fi done Without this patch, the fsck loop fails within a few seconds (and almost instantly if the test repository actually has a large number of refs).

Lazy man's auto-CRLF It currently does NOT know about file attributes, so it does its conversion purely based on content. Maybe that is more in the "git philosophy" anyway, since content is king, but I think we should try to do the file attributes to turn it off on demand. Anyway, BY DEFAULT it is off regardless, because it requires a [core] AutoCRLF = true in your config file to be enabled. We could make that the default for Windows, of course, the same way we do some other things (filemode etc). But you can actually enable it on UNIX, and it will cause: - "git update-index" will write blobs without CRLF - "git diff" will diff working tree files without CRLF - "git checkout" will write files to the working tree _with_ CRLF and things work fine. Funnily, it actually shows an odd file in git itself: git clone -n git test-crlf cd test-crlf git config core.autocrlf true git checkout git diff shows a diff for "Documentation/docbook-xsl.css". Why? Because we have actually checked in that file *with* CRLF! So when "core.autocrlf" is true, we'll always generate a *different* hash for it in the index, because the index hash will be for the content _without_ CRLF. Is this complete? I dunno. It seems to work for me. It doesn't use the filename at all right now, and that's probably a deficiency (we could certainly make the "is_binary()" heuristics also take standard filename heuristics into account). I don't pass in the filename at all for the "index_fd()" case (git-update-index), so that would need to be passed around, but this actually works fine. NOTE NOTE NOTE! The "is_binary()" heuristics are totally made-up by yours truly. I will not guarantee that they work at all reasonable. Caveat emptor. But it _is_ simple, and it _is_ safe, since it's all off by default. The patch is pretty simple - the biggest part is the new "convert.c" file, but even that is really just basic stuff that anybody can write in "Teaching C 101" as a final project for their first class in programming. Not to say that it's bug-free, of course - but at least we're not talking about rocket surgery here.

safecrlf: Add mechanism to warn about irreversible crlf conversions CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data. autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to CRLF during checkout. A file that contains a mixture of LF and CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git. For text files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings such that we have only LF line endings in the repository. But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the conversion can corrupt data. If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes. Right after committing you still have the original file in your work tree and this file is not yet corrupted. You can explicitly tell git that this file is binary and git will handle the file appropriately. Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary files cannot be distinguished. In both cases CRLFs are removed in an irreversible way. For text files this is the right thing to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files converting CRLFs corrupts data. This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert. The mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the following values: - false: disable safecrlf mechanism - warn: warn about irreversible conversions - true: refuse irreversible conversions The default is to warn. Users are only affected by this default if core.autocrlf is set. But the current default of git is to leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism. The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command. The general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are: - we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the original file. - for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree we do not not print annoying warnings. There are exceptions. Even though... - "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the next checkout would, so the safety triggers; - "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the safety does not trigger; - "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add". To catch potential problems early, safety triggers. The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar way by Linus Torvalds.

Lazy man's auto-CRLF It currently does NOT know about file attributes, so it does its conversion purely based on content. Maybe that is more in the "git philosophy" anyway, since content is king, but I think we should try to do the file attributes to turn it off on demand. Anyway, BY DEFAULT it is off regardless, because it requires a [core] AutoCRLF = true in your config file to be enabled. We could make that the default for Windows, of course, the same way we do some other things (filemode etc). But you can actually enable it on UNIX, and it will cause: - "git update-index" will write blobs without CRLF - "git diff" will diff working tree files without CRLF - "git checkout" will write files to the working tree _with_ CRLF and things work fine. Funnily, it actually shows an odd file in git itself: git clone -n git test-crlf cd test-crlf git config core.autocrlf true git checkout git diff shows a diff for "Documentation/docbook-xsl.css". Why? Because we have actually checked in that file *with* CRLF! So when "core.autocrlf" is true, we'll always generate a *different* hash for it in the index, because the index hash will be for the content _without_ CRLF. Is this complete? I dunno. It seems to work for me. It doesn't use the filename at all right now, and that's probably a deficiency (we could certainly make the "is_binary()" heuristics also take standard filename heuristics into account). I don't pass in the filename at all for the "index_fd()" case (git-update-index), so that would need to be passed around, but this actually works fine. NOTE NOTE NOTE!

convert: stream from fd to required clean filter to reduce used address space The data is streamed to the filter process anyway. Better avoid mapping the file if possible. This is especially useful if a clean filter reduces the size, for example if it computes a sha1 for binary data, like git media. The file size that the previous implementation could handle was limited by the available address space; large files for example could not be handled with (32-bit) msysgit. The new implementation can filter files of any size as long as the filter output is small enough. The new code path is only taken if the filter is required. The filter consumes data directly from the fd. If it fails, the original data is not immediately available. The condition can easily be handled as a fatal error, which is expected for a required filter anyway. If the filter was not required, the condition would need to be handled in a different way, like seeking to 0 and reading the data. But this would require more restructuring of the code and is probably not worth it. The obvious approach of falling back to reading all data would not help achieving the main purpose of this patch, which is to handle large files with limited address space. If reading all data is an option, we can simply take the old code path right away and mmap the entire file. The environment variable GIT_MMAP_LIMIT, which has been introduced in a previous commit is used to test that the expected code path is taken.

do not stream large files to pack when filters are in use Because git's object format requires us to specify the number of bytes in the object in its header, we must know the size before streaming a blob into the object database. This is not a problem when adding a regular file, as we can get the size from stat(). However, when filters are in use (such as autocrlf, or the ident, filter, or eol gitattributes), we have no idea what the ultimate size will be. The current code just punts on the whole issue and ignores filter configuration entirely for files larger than core.bigfilethreshold. This can generate confusing results if you use filters for large binary files, as the filter will suddenly stop working as the file goes over a certain size. Rather than try to handle unknown input sizes with streaming, this patch just turns off the streaming optimization when filters are in use. This has a slight performance regression in a very specific case: if you have autocrlf on, but no gitattributes, a large binary file will avoid the streaming code path because we don't know beforehand whether it will need conversion or not. But if you are handling large binary files, you should be marking them as such via attributes (or at least not using autocrlf, and instead marking your text files as such). And the flip side is that if you have a large _non_-binary file, there is a correctness improvement; before we did not apply the conversion at all. The first half of the new t1051 script covers these failures on input. The second half tests the matching output code paths. These already work correctly, and do not need any adjustment.

reachable: only mark local objects as recent When pruning and repacking a repository that has an alternate object store configured, we may traverse a large number of objects in the alternate. This serves no purpose, and may be expensive to do. A longer explanation is below. Commits d3038d2 and abcb865 taught prune and pack-objects (respectively) to treat "recent" objects as tips for reachability, so that we keep whole chunks of history. They built on the object traversal in 660c889 (sha1_file: add for_each iterators for loose and packed objects, 2014-10-15), which covers both local and alternate objects. In both cases, covering alternate objects is unnecessary, as both commands can only drop objects from the local repository. In the case of prune, we traverse only the local object directory. And in the case of repacking, while we may or may not include local objects in our pack, we will never reach into the alternate with "repack -d". The "-l" option is only a question of whether we are migrating objects from the alternate into our repository, or leaving them untouched. It is possible that we may drop an object that is depended upon by another object in the alternate. For example, imagine two repositories, A and B, with A pointing to B as an alternate. Now imagine a commit that is in B which references a tree that is only in A. Traversing from recent objects in B might prevent A from dropping that tree. But this case isn't worth covering. Repo B should take responsibility for its own objects. It would never have had the commit in the first place if it did not also have the tree, and assuming it is using the same "keep recent chunks of history" scheme, then it would itself keep the tree, as well. So checking the alternate objects is not worth doing, and come with a significant performance impact. In both cases, we skip any recent objects that have already been marked SEEN (i.e., that we know are already reachable for prune, or included in the pack for a repack). So there is a slight waste of time in opening the alternate packs at all, only to notice that we have already considered each object. But much worse, the alternate repository may have a large number of objects that are not reachable from the local repository at all, and we end up adding them to the traversal.

reachable: only mark local objects as recent When pruning and repacking a repository that has an alternate object store configured, we may traverse a large number of objects in the alternate. This serves no purpose, and may be expensive to do. A longer explanation is below. Commits d3038d2 and abcb865 taught prune and pack-objects (respectively) to treat "recent" objects as tips for reachability, so that we keep whole chunks of history. They built on the object traversal in 660c889 (sha1_file: add for_each iterators for loose and packed objects, 2014-10-15), which covers both local and alternate objects. In both cases, covering alternate objects is unnecessary, as both commands can only drop objects from the local repository. In the case of prune, we traverse only the local object directory. And in the case of repacking, while we may or may not include local objects in our pack, we will never reach into the alternate with "repack -d". The "-l" option is only a question of whether we are migrating objects from the alternate into our repository, or leaving them untouched. It is possible that we may drop an object that is depended upon by another object in the alternate. For example, imagine two repositories, A and B, with A pointing to B as an alternate. Now imagine a commit that is in B which references a tree that is only in A. Traversing from recent objects in B might prevent A from dropping that tree. But this case isn't worth covering. Repo B should take responsibility for its own objects. It would never have had the commit in the first place if it did not also have the tree, and assuming it is using the same "keep recent chunks of history" scheme, then it would itself keep the tree, as well. So checking the alternate objects is not worth doing, and come with a significant performance impact. In both cases, we skip any recent objects that have already been marked SEEN (i.e., that we know are already reachable for prune, or included in the pack for a repack). So there is a slight waste of time in opening the alternate packs at all, only to notice that we have already considered each object. But much worse, the alternate repository may have a large number of objects that are not reachable from the local repository at all, and we end up adding them to the traversal. We can fix this by considering only local unseen objects. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
