2014-06-12commit: push commit_index update into alloc_commit_nodeLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+10
Whenever we create a commit object via lookup_commit, we give it a unique index to be used with the commit-slab API. The theory is that any "struct commit" we create would follow this code path, so any such struct would get an index. However, callers could use alloc_commit_node() directly (and get multiple commits with index 0). Let's push the indexing into alloc_commit_node so that it's hard for callers to get it wrong.

2014-06-12alloc: include any-object allocations in alloc_reportLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+7
When 2c1cbec (Use proper object allocators for unknown object nodes too, 2007-04-16), added a special "any_object" allocator, it never taught alloc_report to report on it. To do so we need to add an extra type argument to the REPORT macro, as that commit did for DEFINE_ALLOCATOR. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-03-17unbreak and eliminate NO_C99_FORMATLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-9/+2
In the spirit of v1.5.0.2~21 (Check for PRIuMAX rather than NO_C99_FORMAT in fast-import.c, 2007-02-20), use PRIuMAX from git-compat-util.h on all platforms instead of C99-specific formats like %zu with dangerous fallbacks to %u or %lu. So now C99-challenged platforms can build git without provoking warnings or errors from printf, even if pointers do not have the same size as an int or long. The need for a fallback PRIuMAX is detected in git-compat-util.h with "#ifndef PRIuMAX". So while at it, simplify the Makefile and configure script by eliminating the NO_C99_FORMAT knob altogether.

2007-04-16Clean up object creation to use more common codeLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-1/+1
This replaces the fairly odd "created_object()" function that did _most_ of the object setup with a more complete "create_object()" function that also has a more natural calling convention. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-04-16Use proper object allocators for unknown object nodes tooLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-8/+20
We used to use a different allocator scheme for when we didn't know the object type. That meant that objects that were created without any up-front knowledge of the type would not go through the same allocation paths as normal object allocations, and would miss out on the statistics. But perhaps more importantly than the statistics (that are useful when looking at memory usage but not much else), if we want to make the object hash tables use a denser object pointer representation, we need to make sure that they all go through the same blocking allocator.

2006-08-02Add NO_C99_FORMAT to support older compilers.Libravatar Ramsay Allan Jones1-1/+14
The NO_C99_FORMAT macro allows compilers that lack support for the ll,hh,j,z,t size specifiers (eg. gcc 2.95.2) to adapt the code to avoid runtime errors in the formatted IO functions. Signed-off-by: Ramsay Allan Jones <ramsay@ramsay1.demon.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-06-19Add specialized object allocatorLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+51
This creates a simple specialized object allocator for basic objects. This avoids wasting space with malloc overhead (metadata and extra alignment), since the specialized allocator knows the alignment, and that objects, once allocated, are never freed. It also allows us to track some basic statistics about object allocations. For example, for the mozilla import, it shows object usage as follows: blobs: 627629 (14710 kB) trees: 1119035 (34969 kB) commits: 196423 (8440 kB) tags: 1336 (46 kB) and the simpler allocator shaves off about 2.5% off the memory footprint off a "git-rev-list --all --objects", and is a bit faster too. [ Side note: this concludes the series of "save memory in object storage". The thing is, there simply isn't much more to be saved on the objects. Doing "git-rev-list --all --objects" on the mozilla archive has a final total RSS of 131498 pages for me: that's about 513MB. Of that, the object overhead is now just 56MB, the rest is going somewhere else (put another way: the fact that this patch shaves off 2.5% of the total memory overhead, considering that objects are now not much more than 10% of the total shows how big the wasted space really was: this makes object allocations much more memory- and time-efficient). I haven't looked at where the rest is, but I suspect the bulk of it is just the pack-file loading. It may be that we should pack the tree objects separately from the blob objects: for git-rev-list --objects, we don't actually ever need to even look at the blobs, but since trees and blobs are interspersed in the pack-file, we end up not being dense in the tree accesses, so we end up looking at more pages than we strictly need to. So with a 535MB pack-file, it's entirely possible - even likely - that most of the remaining RSS is just the mmap of the pack-file itself. We don't need to map in _all_ of it, but we do end up mapping a fair amount. ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
