2014-10-30get_merge_bases(): always clean-up object flagsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-8/+21
The callers of get_merge_bases() can choose to leave object flags used during the merge-base traversal by passing cleanup=0 as a parameter, but in practice a very few callers can afford to do so (namely, "git merge-base"), as they need to compute merge base in preparation for other processing of their own and they need to see the object without contaminate flags. Change the function signature of get_merge_bases_many() and get_merge_bases() to drop the cleanup parameter, so that the majority of the callers do not have to say ", 1" at the end. Give a new get_merge_bases_many_dirty() API to support only a few callers that know they do not need to spend cycles cleaning up the object flags. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-09-15gpg-interface: move parse_gpg_output() to where it should beLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-36/+0
Earlier, ffb6d7d5 (Move commit GPG signature verification to commit.c, 2013-03-31) moved this helper that used to be in pretty.c (i.e. the output code path) to commit.c for better reusability. It was a good first step in the right direction, but still suffers from a myopic view that commits will be the only thing we would ever want to sign---we would actually want to be able to reuse it even wider. The function interprets what GPG said; gpg-interface is obviously a better place. Move it there. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-08-27commit: provide a function to find a header in a bufferLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+22
Usually when we parse a commit, we read it line by line and handle each individual line (e.g., parse_commit and parse_commit_header). Sometimes, however, we only care about extracting a single header. Code in this situation is stuck doing an ad-hoc parse of the commit buffer. Let's provide a reusable function to locate a header within the commit. The code is modeled after pretty.c's get_header, which is used to extract the encoding. Since some callers may not have the "struct commit" to go along with the buffer, we drop that parameter. The only thing lost is a warning for truncated commits, but that's OK. This shouldn't happen in practice, and even if it does, there's no particular reason that this function needs to complain about it. It either finds the header it was asked for, or it doesn't (and in the latter case, the caller will typically complain).

2014-07-28add object_as_type helper for casting objectsLibravatar Jeff King1-17/+2
When we call lookup_commit, lookup_tree, etc, the logic goes something like: 1. Look for an existing object struct. If we don't have one, allocate and return a new one. 2. Double check that any object we have is the expected type (and complain and return NULL otherwise). 3. Convert an object with type OBJ_NONE (from a prior call to lookup_unknown_object) to the expected type. We can encapsulate steps 2 and 3 in a helper function which checks whether we have the expected object type, converts OBJ_NONE as appropriate, and returns the object. Not only does this shorten the code, but it also provides one central location for converting OBJ_NONE objects into objects of other types. Future patches will use that to enforce type-specific invariants. Since this is a refactoring, we would want it to behave exactly as the current code. It takes a little reasoning to see that this is the case: - for lookup_{commit,tree,etc} functions, we are just pulling steps 2 and 3 into a function that does the same thing. - for the call in peel_object, we currently only do step 3 (but we want to consolidate it with the others, as mentioned above). However, step 2 is a noop here, as the surrounding conditional makes sure we have OBJ_NONE (which we want to keep to avoid an extraneous call to sha1_object_info). - for the call in lookup_commit_reference_gently, we are currently doing step 2 but not step 3. However, step 3 is a noop here. The object we got will have just come from deref_tag, which must have figured out the type for each object in order to know when to stop peeling. Therefore the type will never be OBJ_NONE. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-07-28move setting of object->type to alloc_* functionsLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+2
The "struct object" type implements basic object polymorphism. Individual instances are allocated as concrete types (or as a union type that can store any object), and a "struct object *" can be cast into its real type after examining its "type" enum. This means it is dangerous to have a type field that does not match the allocation (e.g., setting the type field of a "struct blob" to "OBJ_COMMIT" would mean that a reader might read past the allocated memory). In most of the current code this is not a problem; the first thing we do after allocating an object is usually to set its type field by passing it to create_object. However, the virtual commits we create in merge-recursive.c do not ever get their type set. This does not seem to have caused problems in practice, though (presumably because we always pass around a "struct commit" pointer and never even look at the type). We can fix this oversight and also make it harder for future code to get it wrong by setting the type directly in the object allocation functions. This will also make it easier to fix problems with commit index allocation, as we know that any object allocated by alloc_commit_node will meet the invariant that an object with an OBJ_COMMIT type field will have a unique index number.

2014-07-15paint_down_to_common: use prio_queueLibravatar Jeff King1-23/+19
When we are traversing to find merge bases, we keep our usual commit_list of commits to process, sorted by their commit timestamp. As we add each parent to the list, we have to spend "O(width of history)" to do the insertion, where the width of history is the number of simultaneous lines of development. If we instead use a heap-based priority queue, we can do these insertions in "O(log width)" time. This provides minor speedups to merge-base calculations (timings in linux.git, warm cache, best-of-five): [before] $ git merge-base HEAD v2.6.12 real 0m3.251s user 0m3.148s sys 0m0.104s [after] $ git merge-base HEAD v2.6.12 real 0m3.234s user 0m3.108s sys 0m0.128s That's only an 0.5% speedup, but it does help protect us against pathological cases. While we are munging the "interesting" function, we also take the opportunity to give it a more descriptive name, and convert the return value to an int (we returned the first interesting commit, but nobody ever looked at it).

2014-06-20refactor skip_prefix to return a booleanLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+2
The skip_prefix() function returns a pointer to the content past the prefix, or NULL if the prefix was not found. While this is nice and simple, in practice it makes it hard to use for two reasons: 1. When you want to conditionally skip or keep the string as-is, you have to introduce a temporary variable. For example: tmp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo"); if (tmp) buf = tmp; 2. It is verbose to check the outcome in a conditional, as you need extra parentheses to silence compiler warnings. For example: if ((cp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo")) /* do something with cp */ Both of these make it harder to use for long if-chains, and we tend to use starts_with() instead. However, the first line of "do something" is often to then skip forward in buf past the prefix, either using a magic constant or with an extra strlen(3) (which is generally computed at compile time, but means we are repeating ourselves). This patch refactors skip_prefix() to return a simple boolean, and to provide the pointer value as an out-parameter. If the prefix is not found, the out-parameter is untouched. This lets you write: if (skip_prefix(arg, "foo ", &arg)) do_foo(arg); else if (skip_prefix(arg, "bar ", &arg)) do_bar(arg); Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-06-13reuse cached commit buffer when parsing signaturesLibravatar Jeff King1-17/+10
When we call show_signature or show_mergetag, we read the commit object fresh via read_sha1_file and reparse its headers. However, in most cases we already have the object data available, attached to the "struct commit". This is partially laziness in dealing with the memory allocation issues, but partially defensive programming, in that we would always want to verify a clean version of the buffer (not one that might have been munged by other users of the commit). However, we do not currently ever munge the commit buffer, and not using the already-available buffer carries a fairly big performance penalty when we are looking at a large number of commits. Here are timings on linux.git: [baseline, no signatures] $ time git log >/dev/null real 0m4.902s user 0m4.784s sys 0m0.120s [before] $ time git log --show-signature >/dev/null real 0m14.735s user 0m9.964s sys 0m0.944s [after] $ time git log --show-signature >/dev/null real 0m9.981s user 0m5.260s sys 0m0.936s Note that our user CPU time drops almost in half, close to the non-signature case, but we do still spend more wall-clock and system time, presumably from dealing with gpg. An alternative to this is to note that most commits do not have signatures (less than 1% in this repo), yet we pay the re-parsing cost for every commit just to find out if it has a mergetag or signature. If we checked that when parsing the commit initially, we could avoid re-examining most commits later on. Even if we did pursue that direction, however, this would still speed up the cases where we _do_ have signatures. So it's probably worth doing either way.

2014-06-13commit: record buffer length in cacheLibravatar Jeff King1-18/+36
Most callsites which use the commit buffer try to use the cached version attached to the commit, rather than re-reading from disk. Unfortunately, that interface provides only a pointer to the NUL-terminated buffer, with no indication of the original length. For the most part, this doesn't matter. People do not put NULs in their commit messages, and the log code is happy to treat it all as a NUL-terminated string. However, some code paths do care. For example, when checking signatures, we want to be very careful that we verify all the bytes to avoid malicious trickery. This patch just adds an optional "size" out-pointer to get_commit_buffer and friends. The existing callers all pass NULL (there did not seem to be any obvious sites where we could avoid an immediate strlen() call, though perhaps with some further refactoring we could).

This will make it easier to manage the buffer cache independently of the "struct commit" objects. It also shrinks "struct commit" by one pointer, which may be helpful. Unfortunately it does not reduce the max memory size of something like "rev-list", because rev-list uses get_cached_commit_buffer() to decide not to show each commit's output (and due to the design of slab_at, accessing the slab requires us to extend it, allocating exactly the same number of buffer pointers we dropped from the commit structs).

2014-06-13use get_commit_buffer to avoid duplicate codeLibravatar Jeff King1-13/+3
For both of these sites, we already do the "fallback to read_sha1_file" trick. But we can shorten the code by just using get_commit_buffer. Note that the error cases are slightly different when read_sha1_file fails. get_commit_buffer will die() if the object cannot be loaded, or is a non-commit. For get_sha1_oneline, this will almost certainly never happen, as we will have just called parse_object (and if it does, it's probably worth complaining about). For record_author_date, the new behavior is probably better; we notify the user of the error instead of silently ignoring it. And because it's used only for sorting by author-date, somebody examining a corrupt repo can fallback to the regular traversal order.

2014-06-13provide helpers to access the commit bufferLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+28
Many sites look at commit->buffer to get more detailed information than what is in the parsed commit struct. However, we sometimes drop commit->buffer to save memory, in which case the caller would need to read the object afresh. Some callers do this (leading to duplicated code), and others do not (which opens the possibility of a segfault if somebody else frees the buffer). Let's provide a pair of helpers, "get" and "unuse", that let callers easily get the buffer. They will use the cached buffer when possible, and otherwise load from disk using read_sha1_file. Note that we also need to add a "get_cached" variant which returns NULL when we do not have a cached buffer. At first glance this seems to defeat the purpose of "get", which is to always provide a return value. However, some log code paths actually use the NULL-ness of commit->buffer as a boolean flag to decide whether to try printing the commit. At least for now, we want to continue supporting that use.

2014-06-13provide a helper to free commit bufferLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+13
This converts two lines into one at each caller. But more importantly, it abstracts the concept of freeing the buffer, which will make it easier to change later. Note that we also need to provide a "detach" mechanism for a tricky case in index-pack. We are passed a buffer for the object generated by processing the incoming pack. If we are not using --strict, we just calculate the sha1 on that buffer and return, leaving the caller to free it. But if we are using --strict, we actually attach that buffer to an object, pass the object to the fsck functions, and then detach the buffer from the object again (so that the caller can free it as usual). In this case, we don't want to free the buffer ourselves, but just make sure it is no longer associated with the commit. Note that we are making the assumption here that the attach/detach process does not impact the buffer at all (e.g., it is never reallocated or modified). That holds true now, and we have no plans to change that. However, as we abstract the commit_buffer code, this dependency becomes less obvious. So when we detach, let's also make sure that we get back the same buffer that we gave to the commit_buffer code.

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.

2014-06-12commit_tree: take a pointer/len pair rather than a const strbufLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+7
While strbufs are pretty common throughout our code, it is more flexible for functions to take a pointer/len pair than a strbuf. It's easy to turn a strbuf into such a pair (by dereferencing its members), but less easy to go the other way (you can strbuf_attach, but that has implications about memory ownership). This patch teaches commit_tree (and its associated callers and sub-functions) to take such a pair for the commit message rather than a strbuf. This makes passing the buffer around slightly more verbose, but means we can get rid of some dangerous strbuf_attach calls in the next patch.

2014-05-27commit.c: rearrange xcalloc argumentsLibravatar Brian Gesiak1-1/+1
xcalloc() takes two arguments: the number of elements and their size. reduce_heads() passes the arguments in reverse order, passing the size of a commit*, followed by the number of commit* to be allocated. Rearrange them so they are in the correct order. Signed-off-by: Brian Gesiak <modocache@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-03-25object.h: centralize object flag allocationLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
While the field "flags" is mainly used by the revision walker, it is also used in many other places. Centralize the whole flag allocation to one place for a better overview (and easier to move flags if we have too).

2014-03-04commit.c: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()Libravatar Tanay Abhra1-8/+6
In record_author_date() & parse_gpg_output(), the callers of starts_with() not just want to know if the string starts with the prefix, but also can benefit from knowing the string that follows the prefix. By using skip_prefix(), we can do both at the same time.
