pack-objects: respect --local/--honor-pack-keep/--incremental when bitmap is in use
Since 6b8fda2d (pack-objects: use bitmaps when packing objects) there are two codepaths in pack-objects: with & without using bitmap reachability index. However add_object_entry_from_bitmap(), despite its non-bitmapped counterpart add_object_entry(), in no way does check for whether --local or --honor-pack-keep or --incremental should be respected. In non-bitmapped codepath this is handled in want_object_in_pack(), but bitmapped codepath has simply no such checking at all. The bitmapped codepath however was allowing to pass in all those options and with bitmap indices still being used under such conditions - potentially giving wrong output (e.g. including objects from non-local or .keep'ed pack). We can easily fix this by noting the following: when an object comes to add_object_entry_from_bitmap() it can come for two reasons: 1. entries coming from main pack covered by bitmap index, and 2. object coming from, possibly alternate, loose or other packs. "2" can be already handled by want_object_in_pack() and to cover "1" we can teach want_object_in_pack() to expect that *found_pack can be non-NULL, meaning calling client already found object's pack entry. In want_object_in_pack() we care to start the checks from already found pack, if we have one, this way determining the answer right away in case neither --local nor --honour-pack-keep are active. In particular, as p5310-pack-bitmaps.sh shows (3 consecutive runs), we do not do harm to served-with-bitmap clones performance-wise: Test 56dfeb62 this tree ----------------------------------------------------------------- 5310.2: repack to disk 9.08(8.20+0.25) 9.09(8.14+0.32) +0.1% 5310.3: simulated clone 1.92(2.12+0.08) 1.93(2.12+0.09) +0.5% 5310.4: simulated fetch 0.82(1.07+0.04) 0.82(1.06+0.04) +0.0% 5310.6: partial bitmap 1.96(2.42+0.13) 1.95(2.40+0.15) -0.5% Test 56dfeb62 this tree ----------------------------------------------------------------- 5310.2: repack to disk 9.11(8.16+0.32) 9.11(8.19+0.28) +0.0% 5310.3: simulated clone 1.93(2.14+0.07) 1.92(2.11+0.10) -0.5% 5310.4: simulated fetch 0.82(1.06+0.04) 0.82(1.04+0.05) +0.0% 5310.6: partial bitmap 1.95(2.38+0.16) 1.94(2.39+0.14) -0.5% Test 56dfeb62 this tree ----------------------------------------------------------------- 5310.2: repack to disk 9.13(8.17+0.31) 9.07(8.13+0.28) -0.7% 5310.3: simulated clone 1.92(2.13+0.07) 1.91(2.12+0.06) -0.5% 5310.4: simulated fetch 0.82(1.08+0.03) 0.82(1.08+0.03) +0.0% 5310.6: partial bitmap 1.96(2.43+0.14) 1.96(2.42+0.14) +0.0% with delta timings showing they are all within noise from run to run. In the general case we do not want to call find_pack_entry_one() more than once, because it is expensive. This patch splits the loop in want_object_in_pack() into two parts: finding the object and seeing if it impacts our choice to include it in the pack. We may call the inexpensive want_found_object() twice, but we will never call find_pack_entry_one() if we do not need to. I appreciate help and discussing this change with Junio C Hamano and Jeff King. Signed-off-by: Kirill Smelkov <kirr@nexedi.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
