2018-08-13attr: remove an implicit dependency on the_indexLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
Make the attr API take an index_state instead of assuming the_index in attr code. All call sites are converted blindly to keep the patch simple and retain current behavior. Individual call sites may receive further updates to use the right index instead of the_index. There is one ugly temporary workaround added in attr.c that needs some more explanation. Commit c24f3abace (apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip diff and apply - 2017-08-19) forces one convert_to_git() call to NOT read the index at all. But what do you know, we read it anyway by falling back to the_index. When "istate" from convert_to_git is now propagated down to read_attr_from_array() we will hit segfault somewhere inside read_blob_data_from_index. The right way of dealing with this is to kill "use_index" variable and only follow "istate" but at this stage we are not ready for that: while most git_attr_set_direction() calls just passes the_index to be assigned to use_index, unpack-trees passes a different one which is used by entry.c code, which has no way to know what index to use if we delete use_index. So this has to be done later. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-08-03parse-options: automatically infer PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELPLibravatar René Scharfe1-1/+1
Parseopt wraps argument help strings in a pair of angular brackets by default, to tell users that they need to replace it with an actual value. This is useful in most cases, because most option arguments are indeed single values of a certain type. The option PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP needs to be used in option definitions with arguments that have multiple parts or are literal strings. Stop adding these angular brackets if special characters are present, as they indicate that we don't deal with a simple placeholder. This simplifies the code a bit and makes defining special options slightly easier. Remove the flag PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP in the cases where the new and more cautious handling suffices.

2018-07-23pack-objects: fix performance issues on packing large deltasLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-4/+1
Let's start with some background about oe_delta_size() and oe_set_delta_size(). If you already know, skip the next paragraph. These two are added in 0aca34e826 (pack-objects: shrink delta_size field in struct object_entry - 2018-04-14) to help reduce 'struct object_entry' size. The delta size field in this struct is reduced to only contain max 1MB. So if any new delta is produced and larger than 1MB, it's dropped because we can't really save such a large size anywhere. Fallback is provided in case existing packfiles already have large deltas, then we can retrieve it from the pack. While this should help small machines repacking large repos without large deltas (i.e. less memory pressure), dropping large deltas during the delta selection process could end up with worse pack files. And if existing packfiles already have >1MB delta and pack-objects is instructed to not reuse deltas, all of them will be dropped on the floor, and the resulting pack would be definitely bigger. There is also a regression in terms of CPU/IO if we have large on-disk deltas because fallback code needs to parse the pack every time the delta size is needed and just access to the mmap'd pack data is enough for extra page faults when memory is under pressure. Both of these issues were reported on the mailing list. Here's some numbers for comparison. Version Pack (MB) MaxRSS(kB) Time (s) ------- --------- ---------- -------- 2.17.0 5498 43513628 2494.85 2.18.0 10531 40449596 4168.94 This patch provides a better fallback that is - cheaper in terms of cpu and io because we won't have to read existing pack files as much - better in terms of pack size because the pack heuristics is back to 2.17.0 time, we do not drop large deltas at all If we encounter any delta (on-disk or created during try_delta phase) that is larger than the 1MB limit, we stop using delta_size_ field for this because it can't contain such size anyway. A new array of delta size is dynamically allocated and can hold all the deltas that 2.17.0 can. This array only contains delta sizes that delta_size_ can't contain. With this, we do not have to drop deltas in try_delta() anymore. Of course the downside is we use slightly more memory, even compared to 2.17.0. But since this is considered an uncommon case, a bit more memory consumption should not be a problem. Delta size limit is also raised from 1MB to 16MB to better cover common case and avoid that extra memory consumption (99.999% deltas in this reported repo are under 12MB; Jeff noted binary artifacts topped out at about 3MB in some other private repos). Other fields are shuffled around to keep this struct packed tight. We don't use more memory in common case even with this limit update. A note about thread synchronization. Since this code can be run in parallel during delta searching phase, we need a mutex. The realloc part in packlist_alloc() is not protected because it only happens during the object counting phase, which is always single-threaded. Access to e->delta_size_ (and by extension pack->delta_size[e - pack->objects]) is unprotected as before, the thread scheduler in pack-objects must make sure "e" is never updated by two different threads. The area under the new lock is as small as possible, avoiding locking at all in common case, since lock contention with high thread count could be expensive (most blobs are small enough that delta compute time is short and we end up taking the lock very often). The previous attempt to always hold a lock in oe_delta_size() and oe_set_delta_size() increases execution time by 33% when repacking linux.git with with 40 threads.

2018-06-21pack-bitmap: remove bitmap_git global variableLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-2/+4
Remove the bitmap_git global variable. Instead, generate on demand an instance of struct bitmap_index for code that needs to access it. This allows us significant control over the lifetime of instances of struct bitmap_index. In particular, packs can now be closed without worrying if an unnecessarily long-lived "pack" field in struct bitmap_index still points to it. The bitmap API is also clearer in that we need to first obtain a struct bitmap_index, then we use it. This patch raises two potential issues: (1) memory for the struct bitmap_index is allocated without being freed, and (2) prepare_bitmap_git() and prepare_bitmap_walk() can reuse a previously loaded bitmap. For (1), this will be dealt with in a subsequent patch in this patch set that also deals with freeing the contents of the struct bitmap_index (which were not freed previously, because they have global scope). For (2), current bitmap users only load the bitmap once at most (note that pack-objects can use bitmaps or write bitmaps, but not both at the same time), so support for reuse has no effect - and future users can pass around the struct bitmap_index * obtained if they need to do 2 or more things with the same bitmap.

2018-04-26cache.h: add repository argument to oid_object_infoLibravatar Stefan Beller1-3/+5
Add a repository argument to allow the callers of oid_object_info to be more specific about which repository to handle. This is a small mechanical change; it doesn't change the implementation to handle repositories other than the_repository yet. As with the previous commits, use a macro to catch callers passing a repository other than the_repository at compile time.

2018-04-16pack-objects: show some progress when counting kept objectsLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-6/+12
We only show progress when there are new objects to be packed. But when --keep-pack is specified on the base pack, we will exclude most of objects. This makes 'pack-objects' stay silent for a long time while the counting phase is going. Let's show some progress whenever we visit an object instead. The old "Counting objects" is renamed to "Enumerating objects" and a new progress "Counting objects" line is added. This new "Counting objects" line should progress pretty quick when the system is beefy. But when the system is under pressure, the reading object header done in this phase could be slow and showing progress is an improvement over staying silent in the current code.

2018-04-16gc --auto: exclude base pack if not enough mem to "repack -ad"Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
pack-objects could be a big memory hog especially on large repos, everybody knows that. The suggestion to stick a .keep file on the giant base pack to avoid this problem is also known for a long time. Recent patches add an option to do just this, but it has to be either configured or activated manually. This patch lets `git gc --auto` activate this mode automatically when it thinks `repack -ad` will use a lot of memory and start affecting the system due to swapping or flushing OS cache. gc --auto decides to do this based on an estimation of pack-objects memory usage, which is quite accurate at least for the heap part, and whether that fits in half of system memory (the assumption here is for desktop environment where there are many other applications running). This mechanism only kicks in if gc.bigBasePackThreshold is not configured. If it is, it is assumed that the user already knows what they want.

2018-04-16repack: add --keep-pack optionLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-13/+50
We allow to keep existing packs by having companion .keep files. This is helpful when a pack is permanently kept. In the next patch, git-gc just wants to keep a pack temporarily, for one pack-objects run. git-gc can use --keep-pack for this use case. A note about why the pack_keep field cannot be reused and pack_keep_in_core has to be added. This is about the case when --keep-pack is specified together with either --keep-unreachable or --unpack-unreachable, but --honor-pack-keep is NOT specified. In this case, we want to exclude objects from the packs specified on command line, not from ones with .keep files. If only one bit flag is used, we have to clear pack_keep on pack files with the .keep file. But we can't make any assumption about unreachable objects in .keep packs. If "pack_keep" field is false for .keep packs, we could potentially pull lots of unreachable objects into the new pack, or unpack them loose. The safer approach is ignore all packs with either .keep file or --keep-pack. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-04-16pack-objects: shrink delta_size field in struct object_entryLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-10/+16
Allowing a delta size of 64 bits is crazy. Shrink this field down to 20 bits with one overflow bit. If we find an existing delta larger than 1MB, we do not cache delta_size at all and will get the value from oe_size(), potentially from disk if it's larger than 4GB. Note, since DELTA_SIZE() is used in try_delta() code, it must be thread-safe. Luckily oe_size() does guarantee this so we it is thread-safe.

2018-04-16pack-objects: shrink size field in struct object_entryLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-25/+80
It's very very rare that an uncompressed object is larger than 4GB (partly because Git does not handle those large files very well to begin with). Let's optimize it for the common case where object size is smaller than this limit. Shrink size field down to 31 bits and one overflow bit. If the size is too large, we read it back from disk. As noted in the previous patch, we need to return the delta size instead of canonical size when the to-be-reused object entry type is a delta instead of a canonical one. Add two compare helpers that can take advantage of the overflow bit (e.g. if the file is 4GB+, chances are it's already larger than core.bigFileThreshold and there's no point in comparing the actual value). Another note about oe_get_size_slow(). This function MUST be thread safe because SIZE() macro is used inside try_delta() which may run in parallel. Outside parallel code, no-contention locking should be dirt cheap (or insignificant compared to i/o access anyway). To exercise this code, it's best to run the test suite with something like make test GIT_TEST_OE_SIZE=4 which forces this code on all objects larger than 3 bytes.

2018-04-16pack-objects: clarify the use of object_entry::sizeLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-3/+8
While this field most of the time contains the canonical object size, there is one case it does not: when we have found that the base object of the delta in question is also to be packed, we will very happily reuse the delta by copying it over instead of regenerating the new delta. "size" in this case will record the delta size, not canonical object size. Later on in write_reuse_object(), we reconstruct the delta header and "size" is used for this purpose. When this happens, the "type" field contains a delta type instead of a canonical type. Highlight this in the code since it could be tricky to see.

2018-04-16pack-objects: don't check size when the object is badLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-2/+2
sha1_object_info() in check_objects() may fail to locate an object in the pack and return type OBJ_BAD. In that case, it will likely leave the "size" field untouched. We delay error handling until later in prepare_pack() though. Until then, do not touch "size" field. This field should contain the default value zero, but we can't say sha1_object_info() cannot damage it. This becomes more important later when the object size may have to be retrieved back from the (non-existing) pack.

We only cache deltas when it's smaller than a certain limit. This limit defaults to 1000 but save its compressed length in a 64-bit field. Shrink that field down to 20 bits, so you can only cache 1MB deltas. Larger deltas must be recomputed at when the pack is written down.

2018-04-16pack-objects: refer to delta objects by index instead of pointerLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-54/+63
These delta pointers always point to elements in the objects[] array in packing_data struct. We can only hold maximum 4G of those objects because the array size in nr_objects is uint32_t. We could use uint32_t indexes to address these elements instead of pointers. On 64-bit architecture (8 bytes per pointer) this would save 4 bytes per pointer. Convert these delta pointers to indexes. Since we need to handle NULL pointers as well, the index is shifted by one [1]. [1] This means we can only index 2^32-2 objects even though nr_objects could contain 2^32-1 objects. It should not be a problem in practice because when we grow objects[], nr_alloc would probably blow up long before nr_objects hits the wall.

2018-04-16pack-objects: move in_pack out of struct object_entryLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-11/+17
Instead of using 8 bytes (on 64 bit arch) to store a pointer to a pack. Use an index instead since the number of packs should be relatively small. This limits the number of packs we can handle to 1k. Since we can't be sure people can never run into the situation where they have more than 1k pack files. Provide a fall back route for it. If we find out they have too many packs, the new in_pack_by_idx[] array (which has at most 1k elements) will not be used. Instead we allocate in_pack[] array that holds nr_objects elements. This is similar to how the optional in_pack_pos field is handled. The new simple test is just to make sure the too-many-packs code path is at least executed. The true test is running make test GIT_TEST_FULL_IN_PACK_ARRAY=1 to take advantage of other special case tests.
