Reachability bitmaps do not work with shallow operations.
Fixes regression in 2.0.
* jk/pack-shallow-always-without-bitmap:
pack-objects: turn off bitmaps when we see --shallow lines
|
|
Reachability bitmaps do not work with shallow operations,
because they cache a view of the object reachability that
represents the true objects. Whereas a shallow repository
(or a shallow operation in a repository) is inherently
cutting off the object graph with a graft.
We explicitly disallow the use of bitmaps in shallow
repositories by checking is_repository_shallow(), and we
should continue to do that. However, we also want to
disallow bitmaps when we are serving a fetch to a shallow
client, since we momentarily take on their grafted view of
the world.
It used to be enough to call is_repository_shallow at the
start of pack-objects. Upload-pack wrote the other side's
shallow state to a temporary file and pointed the whole
pack-objects process at this state with "git --shallow-file",
and from the perspective of pack-objects, we really were
in a shallow repo. But since b790e0f (upload-pack: send
shallow info over stdin to pack-objects, 2014-03-11), we do
it differently: we send --shallow lines to pack-objects over
stdin, and it registers them itself.
This means that our is_repository_shallow check is way too
early (we have not been told about the shallowness yet), and
that it is insufficient (calling is_repository_shallow is
not enough, as the shallow grafts we register do not change
its return value). Instead, we can just turn off bitmaps
explicitly when we see these lines.

* jk/repack-pack-writebitmaps-config:
t7700: drop explicit --no-pack-kept-objects from .keep test
repack: introduce repack.writeBitmaps config option
repack: simplify handling of --write-bitmap-index
pack-objects: stop respecting pack.writebitmaps
|
|
The handling of the pack.writebitmaps config option
originally happened in pack-objects, which is quite
low-level. It would make more sense for drivers of
pack-objects to read the config, and then manipulate
pack-objects with command-line options.
Recently, repack learned to do so, making the low-level read
of pack.writebitmaps redundant here. Other callers, like
upload-pack, would not generally want to write bitmaps
anyway.
This could be considered a regression for somebody who is
driving pack-objects themselves outside of repack and
expects the config option to be used. However, such users
seem rather unlikely given how new the bitmap code is (and
the fact that they would basically be reimplementing repack
in the first place).
Note that we do not do anything with pack.writeBitmapHashCache
here. That option is not about "do we write bimaps", but
rather "when we are writing bitmaps, how do we do it?". You
would want that to kick in anytime you decide to write them,
similar to how pack.indexVersion is used.

When we are sending a packfile to a remote, we currently try
to reuse a whole chunk of packfile without bothering to look
at the individual objects. This can make things like initial
clones much lighter on the server, as we can just dump the
packfile bytes.
However, it's possible that the other side cannot read our
packfile verbatim. For example, we may have objects stored
as OFS_DELTA, but the client is an antique version of git
that only understands REF_DELTA. We negotiate this
capability over the fetch protocol. A normal pack-objects
run will convert OFS_DELTA into REF_DELTA on the fly, but
the "reuse pack" code path never even looks at the objects.
This patch disables packfile reuse if the other side is
missing any capabilities that we might have used in the
on-disk pack. Right now the only one is OFS_DELTA, but we
may need to expand in the future (e.g., if packv4 introduces
new object types).
We could be more thorough and only disable reuse in this
case when we actually have an OFS_DELTA to send, but:
1. We almost always will have one, since we prefer
OFS_DELTA to REF_DELTA when possible. So this case
would almost never come up.
2. Looking through the objects defeats the purpose of the
optimization, which is to do as little work as possible
to get the bytes to the remote.

The pack bitmap format requires that we have a single bit
for each object in the pack, and that each object's bitmap
represents its complete set of reachable objects. Therefore
we have no way to represent the bitmap of an object which
references objects outside the pack.
We notice this problem while generating the bitmaps, as we
try to find the offset of a particular object and realize
that we do not have it. In this case we die, and neither the
bitmap nor the pack is generated. This is correct, but
perhaps a little unfriendly. If you have bitmaps turned on
in the config, many repacks will fail which would otherwise
succeed. E.g., incremental repacks, repacks with "-l" when
you have alternates, ".keep" files.
Instead, this patch notices early that we are omitting some
objects from the pack and turns off bitmaps (with a
warning). Note that this is not strictly correct, as it's
possible that the object being omitted is not reachable from
any other object in the pack. In practice, this is almost
never the case, and there are two advantages to doing it
this way:
1. The code is much simpler, as we do not have to cleanly
abort the bitmap-generation process midway through.
2. We do not waste time partially generating bitmaps only
to find out that some object deep in the history is not
being packed.

When we are sending a pack for push or fetch, we may reuse a
chunk of packfile without even parsing it. The progress
meter then looks like this:
Reusing existing pack: 3440489, done.
Counting objects: 3, done.
The first line shows that we are reusing a large chunk of
objects, and then we further count any objects not included
in the reused portion with an actual traversal.
These are all implementation details that the user does not
need to care about. Instead, we can show the reused objects
in the normal "counting..." progress meter (which will
simply go much faster than normal), and then continue to add
to it as we traverse.

When the "--all-progress" option is in effect, pack-objects
shows a progress report for the "writing" phase. If the
repository has bitmaps and we are reusing a packfile, the
user sees no progress update until the whole packfile is
sent. Since this is typically the bulk of what is being
written, it can look like git hangs during this phase, even
though the transfer is proceeding.
This generally only happens with "git push" from a
repository with bitmaps. We do not use "--all-progress" for
fetch (since the result is going to index-pack on the
client, which takes care of progress reporting). And for
regular repacks to disk, we do not reuse packfiles.
We already have the progress meter setup during
write_reused_pack; we just need to call display_progress
whiel we are writing out the pack. The progress meter is
attached to our output descriptor, so it automatically
handles the throughput measurements.
However, we need to update the object count as we go, since
that is what feeds the percentage we show. We aren't
actually parsing the packfile as we send it, so we have no
idea how many objects we have sent; we only know that at the
end of N bytes, we will have sent M objects. So we cheat a
little and assume each object is M/N bytes (i.e., the mean
of the objects we are sending). While this isn't strictly
true, it actually produces a more pleasing progress meter
for the user, as it moves smoothly and predictably (and
nobody really cares about the object count; they care about
the percentage, and the object count is a proxy for that).
One alternative would be to actually show two progress
meters: one for the reused pack, and one for the rest of the
objects. That would more closely reflect the data we have
(the first would be measured in bytes, and the second
measured in objects). But it would also be more complex and
annoying to the user; rather than seeing one progress meter
counting up to 100%, they would finish one meter, then start
another one at zero.

Before cdab485 (upload-pack: delegate rev walking in shallow fetch to
pack-objects - 2013-08-16) upload-pack does not write to the source
repository. cdab485 starts to write $GIT_DIR/shallow_XXXXXX if it's a
shallow fetch, so the source repo must be writable.
git:// servers do not need write access to repos and usually don't
have it, which means cdab485 breaks shallow clone over git://
Instead of using a temporary file as the media for shallow points, we
can send them over stdin to pack-objects as well. Prepend shallow
SHA-1 with --shallow so pack-objects knows what is what.

When we use pack bitmaps rather than walking the object
graph, we end up with the list of objects to include in the
packfile, but we do not know the path at which any tree or
blob objects would be found.
In a recently packed repository, this is fine. A fetch would
use the paths only as a heuristic in the delta compression
phase, and a fully packed repository should not need to do
much delta compression.
As time passes, though, we may acquire more objects on top
of our large bitmapped pack. If clients fetch frequently,
then they never even look at the bitmapped history, and all
works as usual. However, a client who has not fetched since
the last bitmap repack will have "have" tips in the
bitmapped history, but "want" newer objects.
The bitmaps themselves degrade gracefully in this
circumstance. We manually walk the more recent bits of
history, and then use bitmaps when we hit them.
But we would also like to perform delta compression between
the newer objects and the bitmapped objects (both to delta
against what we know the user already has, but also between
"new" and "old" objects that the user is fetching). The lack
of pathnames makes our delta heuristics much less effective.
This patch adds an optional cache of the 32-bit name_hash
values to the end of the bitmap file. If present, a reader
can use it to match bitmapped and non-bitmapped names during
delta compression.
Here are perf results for p5310:
Test origin/master HEAD^ HEAD
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5310.2: repack to disk 36.81(37.82+1.43) 47.70(48.74+1.41) +29.6% 47.75(48.70+1.51) +29.7%
5310.3: simulated clone 30.78(29.70+2.14) 1.08(0.97+0.10) -96.5% 1.07(0.94+0.12) -96.5%
5310.4: simulated fetch 3.16(6.10+0.08) 3.54(10.65+0.06) +12.0% 1.70(3.07+0.06) -46.2%

You can see that the time spent on an incremental fetch goes
down, as our delta heuristics are able to do their work.
And we save time on the partial bitmap clone for the same
reason.

This commit extends more the functionality of `pack-objects` by allowing
it to write out a `.bitmap` index next to any written packs, together
with the `.idx` index that currently gets written.
If bitmap writing is enabled for a given repository (either by calling
`pack-objects` with the `--write-bitmap-index` flag or by having
`pack.writebitmaps` set to `true` in the config) and pack-objects is
writing a packfile that would normally be indexed (i.e. not piping to
stdout), we will attempt to write the corresponding bitmap index for the
packfile.
Bitmap index writing happens after the packfile and its index has been
successfully written to disk (`finish_tmp_packfile`). The process is
performed in several steps:
1. `bitmap_writer_set_checksum`: this call stores the partial
checksum for the packfile being written; the checksum will be
written in the resulting bitmap index to verify its integrity
2. `bitmap_writer_build_type_index`: this call uses the array of
`struct object_entry` that has just been sorted when writing out
the actual packfile index to disk to generate 4 type-index bitmaps
(one for each object type).
These bitmaps have their nth bit set if the given object is of
the bitmap's type. E.g. the nth bit of the Commits bitmap will be
1 if the nth object in the packfile index is a commit.
This is a very cheap operation because the bitmap writing code has
access to the metadata stored in the `struct object_entry` array,
and hence the real type for each object in the packfile.
3. `bitmap_writer_reuse_bitmaps`: if there exists an existing bitmap
index for one of the packfiles we're trying to repack, this call
will efficiently rebuild the existing bitmaps so they can be
reused on the new index. All the existing bitmaps will be stored
in a `reuse` hash table, and the commit selection phase will
prioritize these when selecting, as they can be written directly
to the new index without having to perform a revision walk to
fill the bitmap. This can greatly speed up the repack of a
repository that already has bitmaps.
4. `bitmap_writer_select_commits`: if bitmap writing is enabled for
a given `pack-objects` run, the sequence of commits generated
during the Counting Objects phase will be stored in an array.
We then use that array to build up the list of selected commits.
Writing a bitmap in the index for each object in the repository
would be cost-prohibitive, so we use a simple heuristic to pick
the commits that will be indexed with bitmaps.
The current heuristics are a simplified version of JGit's
original implementation. We select a higher density of commits
depending on their age: the 100 most recent commits are always
selected, after that we pick 1 commit of each 100, and the gap
increases as the commits grow older. On top of that, we make sure
that every single branch that has not been merged (all the tips
that would be required from a clone) gets their own bitmap, and
when selecting commits between a gap, we tend to prioritize the
commit with the most parents.
Do note that there is no right/wrong way to perform commit
selection; different selection algorithms will result in
different commits being selected, but there's no such thing as
"missing a commit". The bitmap walker algorithm implemented in
`prepare_bitmap_walk` is able to adapt to missing bitmaps by
performing manual walks that complete the bitmap: the ideal
selection algorithm, however, would select the commits that are
more likely to be used as roots for a walk in the future (e.g.
the tips of each branch, and so on) to ensure a bitmap for them
is always available.
5. `bitmap_writer_build`: this is the computationally expensive part
of bitmap generation. Based on the list of commits that were
selected in the previous step, we perform several incremental
walks to generate the bitmap for each commit.
The walks begin from the oldest commit, and are built up
incrementally for each branch. E.g. consider this dag where A, B,
C, D, E, F are the selected commits, and a, b, c, e are a chunk
of simplified history that will not receive bitmaps.
A---a---B--b--C--c--D
\
E--e--F
We start by building the bitmap for A, using A as the root for a
revision walk and marking all the objects that are reachable
until the walk is over. Once this bitmap is stored, we reuse the
bitmap walker to perform the walk for B, assuming that once we
reach A again, the walk will be terminated because A has already
been SEEN on the previous walk.
This process is repeated for C, and D, but when we try to
generate the bitmaps for E, we can reuse neither the current walk
nor the bitmap we have generated so far.
What we do now is resetting both the walk and clearing the
bitmap, and performing the walk from scratch using E as the
origin. This new walk, however, does not need to be completed.
Once we hit B, we can lookup the bitmap we have already stored
for that commit and OR it with the existing bitmap we've composed
so far, allowing us to limit the walk early.
After all the bitmaps have been generated, another iteration
through the list of commits is performed to find the best XOR
offsets for compression before writing them to disk. Because of
the incremental nature of these bitmaps, XORing one of them with
its predecesor results in a minimal "bitmap delta" most of the
time. We can write this delta to the on-disk bitmap index, and
then re-compose the original bitmaps by XORing them again when
loaded.
This is a phase very similar to pack-object's `find_delta` (using
bitmaps instead of objects, of course), except the heuristics
have been greatly simplified: we only check the 10 bitmaps before
any given one to find best compressing one. This gives good
results in practice, because there is locality in the ordering of
the objects (and therefore bitmaps) in the packfile.
6. `bitmap_writer_finish`: the last step in the process is
serializing to disk all the bitmap data that has been generated
in the two previous steps.
The bitmap is written to a tmp file and then moved atomically to
its final destination, using the same process as
`pack-write.c:write_idx_file`.

In this patch, we use the bitmap API to perform the `Counting Objects`
phase in pack-objects, rather than a traditional walk through the object
graph. For a reasonably-packed large repo, the time to fetch and clone
is often dominated by the full-object revision walk during the Counting
Objects phase. Using bitmaps can reduce the CPU time required on the
server (and therefore start sending the actual pack data with less
delay).
For bitmaps to be used, the following must be true:
1. We must be packing to stdout (as a normal `pack-objects` from
`upload-pack` would do).
2. There must be a .bitmap index containing at least one of the
"have" objects that the client is asking for.
3. Bitmaps must be enabled (they are enabled by default, but can be
disabled by setting `pack.usebitmaps` to false, or by using
`--no-use-bitmap-index` on the command-line).
If any of these is not true, we fall back to doing a normal walk of the
object graph.
Here are some sample timings from a full pack of `torvalds/linux` (i.e.
something very similar to what would be generated for a clone of the
repository) that show the speedup produced by various
methods:

This function actually does three things:
1. Check whether we've already added the object to our
packing list.
2. Check whether the object meets our criteria for adding.
3. Actually add the object to our packing list.
It's a little hard to see these three phases, because they
happen linearly in the rather long function. Instead, this
patch breaks them up into three separate helper functions.
The result is a little easier to follow, though it
unfortunately suffers from some optimization
interdependencies between the stages (e.g., during step 3 we
use the packing list index from step 1 and the packfile
information from step 2).
More importantly, though, the various parts can be
composed differently, as they will be in the next patch.

The sha1write function returns an int, but it will always be
"0". The failure-prone parts of the function happen in the
"flush" callback, which cannot pass an error back to us. So
we just end up calling die() during the flush.
Let's just drop the return value altogether, as it only
confuses callers into thinking that it might be useful.
Only one call site actually checked the return value. We can
drop that check, since it just led to a die() anyway.

As the pack-objects system grows beyond the single
pack-objects.c file, more parts (like the soon-to-exist
bitmap code) will need to compute hashes for matching
deltas. Factor out name_hash to make it available to other
files.

The hash table that stores the packing list for a given `pack-objects`
run was tightly coupled to the pack-objects code.
In this commit, we refactor the hash table and the underlying storage
array into a `packing_data` struct. The functionality for accessing and
adding entries to the packing list is hence accessible from other parts
of Git besides the `pack-objects` builtin.
This refactoring is a requirement for further patches in this series
that will require accessing the commit packing list from outside of
`pack-objects`.
The hash table implementation has been minimally altered: we now
use table sizes which are always a power of two, to ensure a uniform
index distribution in the array.

* jc/pack-objects:
pack-objects: shrink struct object_entry
|
|
When there is no sufficient overlap between old and new history
during a fetch into a shallow repository, we unnecessarily sent
objects the sending side knows the receiving end has.
* nd/fetch-into-shallow:
Add testcase for needless objects during a shallow fetch
list-objects: mark more commits as edges in mark_edges_uninteresting
list-objects: reduce one argument in mark_edges_uninteresting
upload-pack: delegate rev walking in shallow fetch to pack-objects
shallow: add setup_temporary_shallow()
shallow: only add shallow graft points to new shallow file
move setup_alternate_shallow and write_shallow_commits to shallow.c
|
|
mark_edges_uninteresting() is always called with this form
mark_edges_uninteresting(revs->commits, revs, ...);
Remove the first argument and let mark_edges_uninteresting figure that
out by itself. It helps answer the question "are this commit list and
revs related in any way?" when looking at mark_edges_uninteresting
implementation.

Now that close_one_pack() has been introduced to handle file
descriptor pressure, it is not strictly necessary to close the
pack file descriptor in unuse_one_window() when we're under memory
pressure.
Jeff King provided a justification for leaving the pack file open:
If you close packfile descriptors, you can run into racy situations
where somebody else is repacking and deleting packs, and they go away
while you are trying to access them. If you keep a descriptor open,
you're fine; they last to the end of the process. If you don't, then
they disappear from under you.
For normal object access, this isn't that big a deal; we just rescan
the packs and retry. But if you are packing yourself (e.g., because
you are a pack-objects started by upload-pack for a clone or fetch),
it's much harder to recover (and we print some warnings).
Let's do so (or uh, not do so).

Speeds up "git upload-pack" (what is invoked by "git fetch" on the
other side of the connection) by reducing the cost to advertise the
branches and tags that are available in the repository.
* jk/peel-ref:
upload-pack: use peel_ref for ref advertisements
peel_ref: check object type before loading
peel_ref: do not return a null sha1
peel_ref: use faster deref_tag_noverify
|
|
The idea of the peel_ref function is to dereference tag
objects recursively until we hit a non-tag, and return the
sha1. Conceptually, it should return 0 if it is successful
(and fill in the sha1), or -1 if there was nothing to peel.
However, the current behavior is much more confusing. For a
regular loose ref, the behavior is as described above. But
there is an optimization to reuse the peeled-ref value for a
ref that came from a packed-refs file. If we have such a
ref, we return its peeled value, even if that peeled value
is null (indicating that we know the ref definitely does
_not_ peel).
It might seem like such information is useful to the caller,
who would then know not to bother loading and trying to peel
the object. Except that they should not bother loading and
trying to peel the object _anyway_, because that fallback is
already handled by peel_ref. In other words, the whole point
of calling this function is that it handles those details
internally, and you either get a sha1, or you know that it
is not peel-able.
This patch catches the null sha1 case internally and
converts it into a -1 return value (i.e., there is nothing
to peel). This simplifies callers, which do not need to
bother checking themselves.
Two callers are worth noting:
- in pack-objects, a comment indicates that there is a
difference between non-peelable tags and unannotated
tags. But that is not the case (before or after this
patch). Whether you get a null sha1 has to do with
internal details of how peel_ref operated.
- in show-ref, if peel_ref returns a failure, the caller
tries to decide whether to try peeling manually based on
whether the REF_ISPACKED flag is set. But this doesn't
make any sense. If the flag is set, that does not
necessarily mean the ref came from a packed-refs file
with the "peeled" extension. But it doesn't matter,
because even if it didn't, there's no point in trying to
peel it ourselves, as peel_ref would already have done
so. In other words, the fallback peeling is guaranteed
to fail.

Teaches the object name parser things like a "git describe" output
is always a commit object, "A" in "git log A" must be a committish,
and "A" and "B" in "git log A...B" both must be committish, etc., to
prolong the lifetime of abbreviated object names.
* jc/sha1-name-more: (27 commits)
t1512: match the "other" object names
t1512: ignore whitespaces in wc -l output
rev-parse --disambiguate=<prefix>
rev-parse: A and B in "rev-parse A..B" refer to committish
reset: the command takes committish
commit-tree: the command wants a tree and commits
apply: --build-fake-ancestor expects blobs
sha1_name.c: add support for disambiguating other types
revision.c: the "log" family, except for "show", takes committish
revision.c: allow handle_revision_arg() to take other flags
sha1_name.c: introduce get_sha1_committish()
sha1_name.c: teach lookup context to get_sha1_with_context()
sha1_name.c: many short names can only be committish
sha1_name.c: get_sha1_1() takes lookup flags
sha1_name.c: get_describe_name() by definition groks only commits
sha1_name.c: teach get_short_sha1() a commit-only option
sha1_name.c: allow get_short_sha1() to take other flags
get_sha1(): fix error status regression
sha1_name.c: restructure disambiguation of short names
sha1_name.c: correct misnamed "canonical" and "res"
...

The existing "cant_be_filename" that tells the function that the
caller knows the arg is not a path (hence it does not have to be
checked for absense of the file whose name matches it) is made into
a bit in the flag word.

git usually streams large blobs directly to packs. But there are cases
where git can create large loose blobs (unpack-objects or hash-object
over pipe). Or they can come from other git implementations.
core.bigfilethreshold can also be lowered down and introduce a new
wave of large loose blobs.
Use streaming interface to read/compress/write these blobs in one
go. Fall back to normal way if somehow streaming interface cannot be
used.

The function first decides if we want to copy data taken from existing
pack verbatim or we want to encode the data ourselves for the packfile
we are creating and then carries out the decision. Separate the latter
phase into two helper functions, one for the case the data is reused,
the other for the case the data is produced anew.
A little twist is that it can later turn out that we cannot reuse the
data after we initially decide to do so; in such a case, the "reuse"
helper makes a call to "generate" helper. It is easier to follow than
the current fallback code that uses "goto" inside a single large
function.

When we pack everything into one big pack with "git repack
-Ad", any unreferenced objects in to-be-deleted packs are
exploded into loose objects, with the intent that they will
be examined and possibly cleaned up by the next run of "git
prune".
Since the exploded objects will receive the mtime of the
pack from which they come, if the source pack is old, those
loose objects will end up pruned immediately. In that case,
it is much more efficient to skip the exploding step
entirely for these objects.
This patch teaches pack-objects to receive the expiration
information and avoid writing these objects out. It also
teaches "git gc" to pass the value of gc.pruneexpire to
repack (which in turn learns to pass it along to
pack-objects) so that this optimization happens
automatically during "git gc" and "git gc --auto".

It looks like commit 99fb6e04 (pack-objects: convert to use
