"git pack-objects" has a few options that tell it not to pack
objects found in certain packfiles, which require it to scan .idx
files of all available packs. The codepaths involved in these
operations have been optimized for a common case of not having any
non-local pack and/or any .kept pack.
* jk/pack-objects-optim:
pack-objects: compute local/ignore_pack_keep early
pack-objects: break out of want_object loop early
find_pack_entry: replace last_found_pack with MRU cache
add generic most-recently-used list
sha1_file: drop free_pack_by_name
t/perf: add tests for many-pack scenarios
|
|
In want_object_in_pack(), we can exit early from our loop if
neither "local" nor "ignore_pack_keep" are set. If they are,
however, we must examine each pack to see if it has the
object and is non-local or has a ".keep".
It's quite common for there to be no non-local or .keep
packs at all, in which case we know ahead of time that
looking further will be pointless. We can pre-compute this
by simply iterating over the list of packs ahead of time,
and dropping the flags if there are no packs that could
match.
Another similar strategy would be to modify the loop in
want_object_in_pack() to notice that we have already found
the object once, and that we are looping only to check for
"local" and "keep" attributes. If a pack has neither of
those, we can skip the call to find_pack_entry_one(), which
is the expensive part of the loop.
This has two advantages:
- it isn't all-or-nothing; we still get some improvement
when there's a small number of kept or non-local packs,
and a large number of non-kept local packs
- it eliminates any possible race where we add new
non-local or kept packs after our initial scan. In
practice, I don't think this race matters; we already
cache the packed_git information, so somebody who adds a
new pack or .keep file after we've started will not be
noticed at all, unless we happen to need to call
reprepare_packed_git() because a lookup fails.
In other words, we're already racy, and the race is not
a big deal (losing the race means we might include an
object in the pack that would not otherwise be, which is
an acceptable outcome).
However, it also has a disadvantage: we still loop over the
rest of the packs for each object to check their flags. This
is much less expensive than doing the object lookup, but
still not free. So if we wanted to implement that strategy
to cover the non-all-or-nothing cases, we could do so in
addition to this one (so you get the most speedup in the
all-or-nothing case, and the best we can do in the other
cases). But given that the all-or-nothing case is likely the
most common, it is probably not worth the trouble, and we
can revisit this later if evidence points otherwise.

When pack-objects collects the list of objects to pack
(either from stdin, or via its internal rev-list), it
filters each one through want_object_in_pack().
This function loops through each existing packfile, looking
for the object. When we find it, we mark the pack/offset
combo for later use. However, we can't just return "yes, we
want it" at that point. If --honor-pack-keep is in effect,
we must keep looking to find it in _all_ packs, to make sure
none of them has a .keep. Likewise, if --local is in effect,
we must make sure it is not present in any non-local pack.
As a result, the sum effort of these calls is effectively
O(nr_objects * nr_packs). In an ordinary repository, we have
only a handful of packs, and this doesn't make a big
difference. But in pathological cases, it can slow the
counting phase to a crawl.
This patch notices the case that we have neither "--local"
nor "--honor-pack-keep" in effect and breaks out of the loop
early, after finding the first instance. Note that our worst
case is still "objects * packs" (i.e., we might find each
object in the last pack we look in), but in practice we will
often break out early. On an "average" repo, my git.git with
8 packs, this shows a modest 2% (a few dozen milliseconds)
improvement in the counting-objects phase of "git
pack-objects --all <foo" (hackily instrumented by sticking
exit(0) right after list_objects).
But in a much more pathological case, it makes a bigger
difference. I ran the same command on a real-world example
with ~9 million objects across 1300 packs. The counting time
dropped from 413s to 45s, an improvement of about 89%.
Note that this patch won't do anything by itself for a
normal "git gc", as it uses both --honor-pack-keep and
--local.

"git pack-objects" and "git index-pack" mostly operate with off_t
when talking about the offset of objects in a packfile, but there
were a handful of places that used "unsigned long" to hold that
value, leading to an unintended truncation.
* nd/pack-ofs-4gb-limit:
fsck: use streaming interface for large blobs in pack
pack-objects: do not truncate result in-pack object size on 32-bit systems
index-pack: correct "offset" type in unpack_entry_data()
index-pack: report correct bad object offsets even if they are large
index-pack: correct "len" type in unpack_data()
sha1_file.c: use type off_t* for object_info->disk_sizep
pack-objects: pass length to check_pack_crc() without truncation
|
|
A typical diff will not show what's going on and you need to see full
functions. The core code is like this, at the end of of write_one()
e->idx.offset = *offset;
size = write_object(f, e, *offset);
if (!size) {
e->idx.offset = recursing;
return WRITE_ONE_BREAK;
}
written_list[nr_written++] = &e->idx;
/* make sure off_t is sufficiently large not to wrap */
if (signed_add_overflows(*offset, size))
die("pack too large for current definition of off_t");
*offset += size;
Here we can see that the in-pack object size is returned by
write_object (or indirectly by write_reuse_object). And it's used to
calculate object offsets, which end up in the pack index file,
generated at the end.
If "size" overflows (on 32-bit sytems, unsigned long is 32-bit while
off_t can be 64-bit), we got wrong offsets and produce incorrect .idx
file, which may make it look like the .pack file is corrupted.

On 32 bit systems with large file support, unsigned long is 32-bit
while the two offsets in the subtraction expression (pack-objects has
the exact same expression as in sha1_file.c but not shown in diff) are
in 64-bit. If an in-pack object is larger than 2^32 len/datalen is
truncated and we get a misleading "error: bad packed object CRC for
..." as a result.
Use off_t for len and datalen. check_pack_crc() already accepts this
argument as off_t and can deal with 4+ GB.

If you use "repack -adk" currently, we will pack all objects
that are already packed into the new pack, and then drop the
old packs. However, loose unreachable objects will be left
as-is. In theory these are meant to expire eventually with
"git prune". But if you are using "repack -k", you probably
want to keep things forever and therefore do not run "git
prune" at all. Meaning those loose objects may build up over
time and end up fooling any object-count heuristics (such as
the one done by "gc --auto", though since git-gc does not
support "repack -k", this really applies to whatever custom
scripts people might have driving "repack -k").
With this patch, we instead stuff any loose unreachable
objects into the pack along with the already-packed
unreachable objects. This may seem wasteful, but it is
really no more so than using "repack -k" in the first place.
We are at a slight disadvantage, in that we have no useful
ordering for the result, or names to hand to the delta code.
However, this is again no worse than what "repack -k" is
already doing for the packed objects. The packing of these
objects doesn't matter much because they should not be
accessed frequently (unless they actually _do_ become
referenced, but then they would get moved to a different
part of the packfile during the next repack).

When we find a blob at "a/b/c", we currently pass this to
our show_object_fn callbacks as two components: "a/b/" and
"c". Callbacks which want the full value then call
path_name(), which concatenates the two. But this is an
inefficient interface; the path is a strbuf, and we could
simply append "c" to it temporarily, then roll back the
length, without creating a new copy.
So we could improve this by teaching the callsites of
path_name() this trick (and there are only 3). But we can
also notice that no callback actually cares about the
broken-down representation, and simply pass each callback
the full path "a/b/c" as a string. The callback code becomes
even simpler, then, as we do not have to worry about freeing
an allocated buffer, nor rolling back our modification to
the strbuf.
This is theoretically less efficient, as some callbacks
would not bother to format the final path component. But in
practice this is not measurable. Since we use the same
strbuf over and over, our work to grow it is amortized, and
we really only pay to memcpy a few bytes.

In the previous commit, we left name_path as a thin wrapper
around a strbuf. This patch drops it entirely. As a result,
every show_object_fn callback needs to be adjusted. However,
none of their code needs to be changed at all, because the
only use was to pass it to path_name(), which now handles
the bare strbuf.

The unsigned long option parsing (including 'k'/'m'/'g' suffix
parsing) is more widely applicable. Add support for OPT_MAGNITUDE
to parse-options.h and change pack-objects.c use this support.
The error behavior on parse errors follows that of OPT_INTEGER. The
name of the option that failed to parse is reported with a brief
message describing the expect format for the option argument and
then the full usage message for the command invoked.
This differs from the previous behavior for OPT_ULONG used in
pack-objects for --max-pack-size and --window-memory which used to
display the value supplied in the error message and did not display
the full usage message.

Change typedef each_ref_fn to take a "const struct object_id *oid"
parameter instead of "const unsigned char *sha1".
To aid this transition, implement an adapter that can be used to wrap
old-style functions matching the old typedef, which is now called
"each_ref_sha1_fn"), and make such functions callable via the new
interface. This requires the old function and its cb_data to be
wrapped in a "struct each_ref_fn_sha1_adapter", and that object to be
used as the cb_data for an adapter function, each_ref_fn_adapter().
This is an enormous diff, but most of it consists of simple,
mechanical changes to the sites that call any of the "for_each_ref"
family of functions. Subsequent to this change, the call sites can be
rewritten one by one to use the new interface.

* jk/sha1-file-reduce-useless-warnings:
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.

When fetching into or pushing from a shallow repository, we want to

Teach pack-objects a --shallow option to indicate that we're pushing

use --objects-edge, which performs better in the general case. Update

When we are given an expiration time like

unreachable loose objects entirely, under the assumption
that running "prune" would simply delete them immediately
anyway. However, this is only valid if we computed the same
set of reachable objects as prune would.
In practice, this is the case, because only git-repack uses
the --unpack-unreachable option with an expiration, and it
always feeds as many objects into the pack as possible. But
we can double-check at runtime just to be sure.

When we pack all objects, we use only the objects reachable
from references and reflogs. This misses any objects which
are reachable from the index, but not yet referenced.
By itself this isn't a big deal; the objects can remain
loose until they are actually used in a commit. However, it
does create a problem when we drop packed but unreachable
objects. We try to optimize out the writing of objects that
we will immediately prune, which means we must follow the
same rules as prune in determining what is reachable. And
prune uses the index for this purpose.
This is rather uncommon in practice, as objects in the index
would not usually have been packed in the first place. But
it could happen in a sequence like:
1. You make a commit on a branch that references blob X.
2. You repack, moving X into the pack.
3. You delete the branch (and its reflog), so that X is
unreferenced.
4. You "git add" blob X so that it is now referenced only
by the index.
5. You repack again with git-gc. The pack-objects we
invoke will see that X is neither referenced nor
recent and not bother loosening it.

when loosening unreachable objects, tries to optimize out
the write in the case that the object will be immediately
pruned. It now gets this wrong, since its rule does not

When we are loosening unreachable packed objects, we do not
bother to process objects that would simply be pruned
immediately anyway. The "would be pruned" check is a simple
comparison, but is about to get more complicated. Let's pull
it out into a separate function.
Note that this is slightly less efficient than the original,
which avoided even opening old packs, since no object in
them could pass the current check, which cares only about
the pack mtime. But the new rules will depend on the exact
object, so we need to perform the check even for old packs.
Note also that we fix a minor buglet when the pack mtime is
exactly the same as the expiration time. The prune code
considers that worth pruning, whereas our check here
considered it worth keeping. This wasn't a big deal. Besides
being unlikely to happen, the result was simply that the
object was loosened and then pruned, missing the
optimization. Still, we can easily fix it while we are here.

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.

t7700: drop explicit --no-pack-kept-objects from .keep test

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 progress output while repacking and transferring objects showed
an apparent large silence while writing the objects out of existing
packfiles, when the reachability bitmap was in use.
