"git grep" has been tweaked to be limited to the sparse checkout paths. * mt/grep-sparse-checkout: grep: honor sparse-checkout on working tree searches
2021-02-17Merge branch 'mt/grep-cached-untracked'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+3
"git grep --untracked" is meant to be "let's ALSO find in these files on the filesystem" when looking for matches in the working tree files, and does not make any sense if the primary search is done against the index, or the tree objects. The "--cached" and "--untracked" options have been marked as mutually incompatible. * mt/grep-cached-untracked: grep: error out if --untracked is used with --cached
2021-02-09grep: honor sparse-checkout on working tree searchesLibravatar Matheus Tavares1-2/+5
On a sparse checked out repository, `git grep` (without --cached) ends up searching the cache when an entry matches the search pathspec and has the SKIP_WORKTREE bit set. This is confusing both because the sparse paths are not expected to be in a working tree search (as they are not checked out), and because the output mixes working tree and cache results without distinguishing them. (Note that grep also resorts to the cache on working tree searches that include --assume-unchanged paths. But the whole point in that case is to assume that the contents of the index entry and the file are the same. This does not apply to the case of sparse paths, where the file isn't even expected to be present.) Fix that by teaching grep to honor the sparse-checkout rules for working tree searches. If the user wants to grep paths outside the current sparse-checkout definition, they may either update the sparsity rules to materialize the files, or use --cached to search all blobs registered in the index. Note: it might also be interesting to add a configuration option that allow users to search paths that are present despite having the SKIP_WORKTREE bit set, and/or to restrict searches in the index and past revisions too. These ideas are left as future improvements to avoid conflicting with other sparse-checkout topics currently in flight.

2021-01-26grep/log: remove hidden --debug and --grep-debug optionsLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-5/+0
Remove the hidden "grep --debug" and "log --grep-debug" options added in 17bf35a3c7b (grep: teach --debug option to dump the parse tree, 2012-09-13). At the time these options seem to have been intended to go along with a documentation discussion and to help the author of relevant tests to perform ad-hoc debugging on them[1]. Reasons to want this gone: 1. They were never documented, and the only (rather trivial) use of them in our own codebase for testing is something I removed back in e01b4dab01e (grep: change non-ASCII -i test to stop using --debug, 2017-05-20). 2. Googling around doesn't show any in-the-wild uses I could dig up, and on the Git ML the only mentions after the original discussion seem to have been when they came up in unrelated diff contexts, or that test commit of mine. 3. An exception to that is c581e4a7499 (grep: under --debug, show whether PCRE JIT is enabled, 2019-08-18) where we added the ability to dump out when PCREv2 has the JIT in effect. The combination of that and my earlier b65abcafc7a (grep: use PCRE v2 for optimized fixed-string search, 2019-07-01) means Git prints this out in its most common in-the-wild configuration: $ git log --grep-debug --grep=foo --grep=bar --grep=baz --all-match pcre2_jit_on=1 pcre2_jit_on=1 pcre2_jit_on=1 [all-match] (or pattern_body<body>foo (or pattern_body<body>bar pattern_body<body>baz ) ) $ git grep --debug \( -e foo --and -e bar \) --or -e baz pcre2_jit_on=1 pcre2_jit_on=1 pcre2_jit_on=1 (or (and patternfoo patternbar ) patternbaz ) I.e. for each pattern we're considering for the and/or/--all-match etc. debugging we'll now diligently spew out another identical line saying whether the PCREv2 JIT is on or not. I think that nobody's complained about that rather glaringly obviously bad output says something about how much this is used, i.e. it's not. The need for this debugging aid for the composed grep/log patterns seems to have passed, and the desire to dump the JIT config seems to have been another one-off around the time we had JIT-related issues on the PCREv2 codepath. That the original author of this debugging facility seemingly hasn't noticed the bad output since then[2] is probably some indicator. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover.1347615361.git.git@drmicha.warpmail.net/ 2. https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqk1b8x0ac.fsf@gitster-ct.c.googlers.com/ Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

In 15fabd1bbd ("builtin/grep.c: make configuration callback more reusable", 2012-10-09), we learned to fill a `static struct grep_opt grep_defaults` which we can use as a blueprint for other such structs. At the time, we didn't consider designated initializers to be widely useable, but these days, we do. (See, e.g., cbc0f81d96 ("strbuf: use designated initializers in STRBUF_INIT", 2017-07-10).) Use designated initializers to let the compiler set up the struct and so that we don't need to remember to call `init_grep_defaults()`.

2020-11-21grep: don't set up a "default" repo for grepLibravatar Martin Ågren1-1/+1
`init_grep_defaults()` fills a `static struct grep_opt grep_defaults`. This struct is then used by `grep_init()` as a blueprint for other such structs. Notably, `grep_init()` takes a `struct repo *` and assigns it into the target struct. As a result, it is unnecessary for us to take a `struct repo *` in `init_grep_defaults()` as well. We assign it into the default struct and never look at it again. And in light of how we return early if we have already set up the default struct, it's not just unnecessary, but is also a bit confusing: If we are called twice and with different repos, is it a bug or a feature that we ignore the second repo?

2020-08-18dir: fix problematic API to avoid memory leaksLibravatar Elijah Newren1-1/+2
The dir structure seemed to have a number of leaks and problems around it. First I noticed that parent_hashmap and recursive_hashmap were being leaked (though Peff noticed and submitted fixes before me). Then I noticed in the previous commit that clear_directory() was only taking responsibility for a subset of fields within dir_struct, despite the fact that entries[] and ignored[] we allocated internally to dir.c. That, of course, resulted in many callers either leaking or haphazardly trying to free these arrays and their contents. Digging further, I found that despite the pretty clear documentation near the top of dir.h that folks were supposed to call clear_directory() when the user no longer needed the dir_struct, there were four callers that didn't bother doing that at all. However, two of them clearly thought about leaks since they had an UNLEAK(dir) directive, which to me suggests that the method to free the data was too unclear. I suspect the non-obviousness of the API and its holes led folks to avoid it, which then snowballed into further problems with the entries[], ignored[], parent_hashmap, and recursive_hashmap problems. Rename clear_directory() to dir_clear() to be more in line with other data structures in git, and introduce a dir_init() to handle the suggested memsetting of dir_struct to all zeroes. I hope that a name like "dir_clear()" is more clear, and that the presence of dir_init() will provide a hint to those looking at the code that they need to look for either a dir_clear() or a dir_free() and lead them to find dir_clear().

2020-07-28strvec: convert builtin/ callers away from argv_array nameLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once, or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits. Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different names is OK). This patch converts all of the files in builtin/ to keep the diff to a manageable size. The conversion was done purely mechanically with: git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' | xargs perl -i -pe ' s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g; s/argv_array/strvec/g; ' and then selectively staging files with "git add builtin/".

2020-04-28Use OPT_CALLBACK and OPT_CALLBACK_FLibravatar Denton Liu1-13/+13
In the codebase, there are many options which use OPTION_CALLBACK in a plain ol' struct definition. However, we have the OPT_CALLBACK and OPT_CALLBACK_F macros which are meant to abstract these plain struct definitions away. These macros are useful as they semantically signal to developers that these are just normal callback option with nothing fancy happening. Replace plain struct definitions of OPTION_CALLBACK with OPT_CALLBACK or OPT_CALLBACK_F where applicable. The heavy lifting was done using the following (disgusting) shell script: #!/bin/sh do_replacement () { tr '\n' '\r' | sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\s*0,\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6)/g' | sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK_F(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6,\7)/g' | tr '\r' '\n' } for f in $(git ls-files \*.c) do do_replacement <"$f" >"$f.tmp" mv "$f.tmp" "$f" done The result was manually inspected and then reformatted to match the style of the surrounding code. Finally, using `git grep OPTION_CALLBACK \*.c`, leftover results which were not handled by the script were manually transformed.

2020-04-20grep: follow conventions for printing paths w/ unusual charsLibravatar Matheus Tavares1-12/+34
grep does not follow the conventions used by other Git commands when printing paths that contain unusual characters (as double-quotes or newlines). Commands such as ls-files, commit, status and diff will: - Quote and escape unusual pathnames, by default. - Print names verbatim and unquoted when "-z" is used. But grep *never* quotes/escapes absolute paths with unusual chars and *always* quotes/escapes relative ones, even with "-z". Besides being inconsistent in its own output, the deviation from other Git commands can be confusing. So let's make it follow the two rules above and add some tests for this new behavior. Note that, making grep quote/escape all unusual paths by default, also make it fully compliant with the core.quotePath configuration, which is currently ignored for absolute paths.

2020-04-01Fix error-prone fill_directory() API; make it only return matchesLibravatar Elijah Newren1-2/+0
Traditionally, the expected calling convention for the dir.c API was: fill_directory(&dir, ..., pathspec) foreach entry in dir->entries: if (dir_path_match(entry, pathspec)) process_or_display(entry) This may have made sense once upon a time, because the fill_directory() call could use cheap checks to avoid doing full pathspec matching, and an external caller may have wanted to do other post-processing of the results anyway. However: * this structure makes it easy for users of the API to get it wrong * this structure actually makes it harder to understand fill_directory() and the functions it uses internally. It has tripped me up several times while trying to fix bugs and restructure things. * relying on post-filtering was already found to produce wrong results; pathspec matching had to be added internally for multiple cases in order to get the right results (see commits 404ebceda01c (dir: also check directories for matching pathspecs, 2019-09-17) and 89a1f4aaf765 (dir: if our pathspec might match files under a dir, recurse into it, 2019-09-17)) * it's bad for performance: fill_directory() already has to do lots of checks and knows the subset of cases where it still needs to do more checks. Forcing external callers to do full pathspec matching means they must re-check _every_ path. So, add the pathspec matching within the fill_directory() internals, and remove it from external callers.

Since grep learned to recurse into submodules in 0281e487fd (grep: optionally recurse into submodules, 2016-12-16), using --recurse-submodules along with --no-index makes Git die(). This is unfortunate because if submodule.recurse is set in a user's ~/.gitconfig, invoking `git grep --no-index` either inside or outside a Git repository results in fatal: option not supported with --recurse-submodules Let's allow using these options together, so that setting submodule.recurse globally does not prevent using `git grep --no-index`. Using `--recurse-submodules` should not have any effect if `--no-index` is used inside a repository, as Git will recurse into the checked out submodule directories just like into regular directories.

They were disabled at 53b8d93 ("grep: disable threading in non-worktree case", 12-12-2011), due to observable performance drops (to the point that using a single thread would be faster than multiple threads). But now that zlib inflation can be performed in parallel we can regain the speedup, so let's re-enable threads in non-worktree grep. Grepping 'abcd[02]' ("Regex 1") and '(static|extern) (int|double) \*' ("Regex 2") at chromium's repository[1] I got: Threads | Regex 1 | Regex 2 ---------|------------|----------- 1 | 17.2920s | 20.9624s 2 | 9.6512s | 11.3184s 4 | 6.7723s | 7.6268s 8** | 6.2886s | 6.9843s These are all means of 30 executions after 2 warmup runs.

But to make sure the optimization also performs well on HDD, the tests were repeated on another machine with an i5-4210U (dual-core w/ hyper-threading), 8GB of RAM and HDD (SATA III, 5400 rpm), also running Manjaro Linux: Threads | Regex 1 | Regex 2 ---------|------------|----------- 1 | 18.4035s | 22.5368s 2 | 12.5063s | 14.6409s 4** | 10.9136s | 12.7106s ** Note that in these cases we relied on hyper-threading, and that's probably why we don't see a big difference in time. Unfortunately, multithreaded git-grep might be slow in the non-worktree case when --textconv is used and there're too many text conversions. Probably the reason for this is that the object read lock is used to protect fill_textconv() and therefore there is a mutual exclusion between textconv execution and object reading. Because both are time-consuming operations, not being able to perform them in parallel can cause performance drops. To inform the users about this (and other threading details), let's also add a "NOTES ON THREADS" section to Documentation/git-grep.txt.

2020-01-17grep: protect packed_git [re-]initializationLibravatar Matheus Tavares1-2/+6
Some fields in struct raw_object_store are lazy initialized by the thread-unsafe packfile.c:prepare_packed_git(). Although this function is present in the call stack of git-grep threads, all paths to it are currently protected by obj_read_lock() (and the main thread usually indirectly calls it before firing the worker threads, anyway). However, it's possible that future modifications add new unprotected paths to it, introducing a race condition. Because errors derived from it wouldn't happen often, it could be hard to detect. So to prevent future headaches, let's force eager initialization of packed_git when setting git-grep up. There'll be a small overhead in the cases where we didn't really need to prepare packed_git during execution but this shouldn't be very noticeable. Also, packed_git may be re-initialized by packfile.c:reprepare_packed_git(). Again, all paths to it in git-grep are already protected by obj_read_lock() but it may suffer from the same problem in the future. So let's also internally protect it with obj_read_lock() (which is a recursive mutex). Signed-off-by: Matheus Tavares <matheus.bernardino@usp.br> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-01-17grep: allow submodule functions to run in parallelLibravatar Matheus Tavares1-16/+22
Now that object reading operations are internally protected, the submodule initialization functions at builtin/grep.c:grep_submodule() are very close to being thread-safe. Let's take a look at each call and remove from the critical section what we can, for better performance: - submodule_from_path() and is_submodule_active() cannot be called in parallel yet only because they call repo_read_gitmodules() which contains, in its call stack, operations that would otherwise be in race condition with object reading (for example parse_object() and is_promisor_remote()). However, they only call repo_read_gitmodules() if it wasn't read before. So let's pre-read it before firing the threads and allow these two functions to safely be called in parallel. - repo_submodule_init() is already thread-safe, so remove it from the critical section without other necessary changes. - The repo_read_gitmodules(&subrepo) call at grep_submodule() is safe as no other thread is performing object reading operations in the subrepo yet. However, threads might be working in the superproject, and this function calls add_to_alternates_memory() internally, which is racy with object readings in the superproject. So it must be kept protected for now. Let's add a "NEEDSWORK" to it, informing why it cannot be removed from the critical section yet. - Finally, add_to_alternates_memory() must be kept protected for the same reason as the item above.

2020-01-17submodule-config: add skip_if_read option to repo_read_gitmodules()Libravatar Matheus Tavares1-1/+1
Currently, submodule-config.c doesn't have an externally accessible function to read gitmodules only if it wasn't already read. But this exact behavior is internally implemented by gitmodules_read_check(), to perform a lazy load. Let's merge this function with repo_read_gitmodules() adding a 'skip_if_read' which allows both internal and external callers to access this functionality. This simplifies a little the code. The added option will also be used in the following patch. Signed-off-by: Matheus Tavares <matheus.bernardino@usp.br> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-01-17grep: replace grep_read_mutex by internal obj read lockLibravatar Matheus Tavares1-30/+16
git-grep uses 'grep_read_mutex' to protect its calls to object reading operations. But these have their own internal lock now, which ensures a better performance (allowing parallel access to more regions). So, let's remove the former and, instead, activate the latter with enable_obj_read_lock(). Sections that are currently protected by 'grep_read_mutex' but are not internally protected by the object reading lock should be surrounded by obj_read_lock() and obj_read_unlock(). These guarantee mutual exclusion with object reading operations, keeping the current behavior and avoiding race conditions. Namely, these places are: In grep.c: - fill_textconv() at fill_textconv_grep(). - userdiff_get_textconv() at grep_source_1(). In builtin/grep.c: - parse_object_or_die() and the submodule functions at grep_submodule(). - deref_tag() and gitmodules_config_oid() at grep_objects(). If these functions become thread-safe, in the future, we might remove the locking and probably get some speedup. Note that some of the submodule functions will already be thread-safe (or close to being thread-safe) with the internal object reading lock. However, as some of them will require additional modifications to be removed from the critical section, this will be done in its own patch.

2020-01-17grep: fix racy calls in grep_objects()Libravatar Matheus Tavares1-0/+5
deref_tag() calls is_promisor_object() and parse_object(), both of which perform lazy initializations and other thread-unsafe operations. If it was only called by grep_objects() this wouldn't be a problem as the latter is only executed by the main thread. However, deref_tag() is also present in read_object_file()'s call stack. So calling deref_tag() in grep_objects() without acquiring the grep_read_mutex may incur in a race condition with object reading operations (such as the ones internally performed by fill_textconv(), called at fill_textconv_grep()). The same problem happens with the call to gitmodules_config_oid() which also has parse_object() in its call stack. Fix that protecting both calls with the said grep_read_mutex.

2020-01-17grep: fix race conditions at grep_submodule()Libravatar Matheus Tavares1-4/+3
There're currently two function calls in builtin/grep.c:grep_submodule() which might result in race conditions: - submodule_from_path(): it has config_with_options() in its call stack which, in turn, may have read_object_file() in its own. Therefore, calling the first function without acquiring grep_read_mutex may end up causing a race condition with other object read operations performed by worker threads (for example, at the fill_textconv() call in grep.c:fill_textconv_grep()). - parse_object_or_die(): it falls into the same problem, having repo_has_object_file(the_repository, ...) in its call stack. Besides that, parse_object(), which is also called by parse_object_or_die(), is thread-unsafe and also called by object reading functions. It's unlikely to really fall into a data race with these operations as the volume of calls to them is usually very low. But we better protect ourselves against this possibility, anyway. So, to solve these issues, move both of these function calls into the critical section of grep_read_mutex.

2019-10-18grep: make PCRE2 aware of custom allocatorLibravatar Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belón1-0/+1
94da9193a6 (grep: add support for PCRE v2, 2017-06-01) didn't include a way to override the system allocator, and so it is incompatible with custom allocators (e.g. nedmalloc). This problem became obvious when we tried to plug a memory leak by `free()`ing a data structure allocated by PCRE2, triggering a segfault in Windows (where we use nedmalloc by default). PCRE2 requires the use of a general context to override the allocator and therefore, there is a lot more code needed than in PCRE1, including a couple of wrapper functions. Extend the grep API with a "destructor" that could be called to cleanup any objects that were created and used globally. Update `builtin/grep.c` to use that new API, but any other future users should make sure to have matching `grep_init()`/`grep_destroy()` calls if they are using the pattern matching functionality. Move some of the logic that was before done per thread (in the workers) into an earlier phase to avoid degrading performance, but as the use of PCRE2 with custom allocators is better understood it is expected more of its functions will be instructed to use the custom allocator as well as was done in the original code[1] this work was based on.

Running git-grep with --recurse-submodules results in a cached grep for the submodules even when --cached is not used.

2019-01-15tree-walk: store object_id in a separate memberLibravatar brian m. carlson1-4/+4
When parsing a tree, we read the object ID directly out of the tree buffer. This is normally fine, but such an object ID cannot be used with oidcpy, which copies GIT_MAX_RAWSZ bytes, because if we are using SHA-1, there may not be that many bytes to copy. Instead, store the object ID in a separate struct member. Since we can no longer efficiently compute the path length, store that information as well in struct name_entry. Ensure we only copy the object ID into the new buffer if the path length is nonzero, as some callers will pass us an empty path with no object ID following it, and we will not want to read past the end of the buffer.

2019-01-14grep: use grep_opt->repo instead of explict repo argumentLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-17/+24
This command is probably the first one that operates on a repository other than the_repository, in f9ee2fcdfa (grep: recurse in-process using 'struct repository' - 2017-08-02). An explicit 'struct repository *' was added in that commit to pass around the repository that we're supposed to grep from. Since 38bbc2ea39 (grep.c: remove implicit dependency on the_index - 2018-09-21). 'struct grep_opt *' carries in itself a repository parameter for grepping. We should now be able to reuse grep_opt to hold the submodule repo instead of a separate argument, which is just room for mistakes. While at there, use the right reference instead of the_repository and the_index in this code. I was a bit careless in my attempt to kick the_repository / the_index out of library code. It's normally safe to just stick the_repository / the_index in bultin/ code, but it's not the case for grep.

2018-12-05repository: repo_submodule_init to take a submodule structLibravatar Stefan Beller1-7/+10
When constructing a struct repository for a submodule for some revision of the superproject where the submodule is not contained in the index, it may not be present in the working tree currently either. In that situation giving a 'path' argument is not useful. Upgrade the repo_submodule_init function to take a struct submodule instead. The submodule struct can be obtained via submodule_from_{path, name} or an artificial submodule struct can be passed in. While we are at it, rename the repository struct in the repo_submodule_init function, which is to be initialized, to a name that is not confused with the struct submodule as easily. Perform such renames in similar functions as well. Also move its documentation into the header file.
