2016-10-11Merge branch 'jk/verify-packfile-gently' into maintLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+2
A low-level function verify_packfile() was meant to show errors that were detected without dying itself, but under some conditions it didn't and died instead, which has been fixed. * jk/verify-packfile-gently: verify_packfile: check pack validity before accessing data
2016-09-22verify_packfile: check pack validity before accessing dataLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+2
The verify_packfile() does not explicitly open the packfile; instead, it starts with a sha1 checksum over the whole pack, and relies on use_pack() to open the packfile as a side effect. If the pack cannot be opened for whatever reason (either because its header information is corrupted, or perhaps because a simultaneous repack deleted it), then use_pack() will die(), as it has no way to return an error. This is not ideal, as verify_packfile() otherwise tries to gently return an error (this lets programs like git-fsck go on to check other packs). Instead, let's check is_pack_valid() up front, and return an error if it fails. This will open the pack as a side effect, and then use_pack() will later rely on our cached descriptor, and avoid calling die().

2016-07-13fsck: use streaming interface for large blobs in packLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-2/+21
For blobs, we want to make sure the on-disk data is not corrupted (i.e. can be inflated and produce the expected SHA-1). Blob content is opaque, there's nothing else inside to check for. For really large blobs, we may want to avoid unpacking the entire blob in memory, just to check whether it produces the same SHA-1. On 32-bit systems, we may not have enough virtual address space for such memory allocation. And even on 64-bit where it's not a problem, allocating a lot more memory could result in kicking other parts of systems to swap file, generating lots of I/O and slowing everything down. For this particular operation, not unpacking the blob and letting check_sha1_signature, which supports streaming interface, do the job is sufficient. check_sha1_signature() is not shown in the diff, unfortunately. But if will be called when "data_valid && !data" is false. We will call the callback function "fn" with NULL as "data". The only callback of this function is fsck_obj_buffer(), which does not touch "data" at all if it's a blob.

Each of these cases can be converted to use ALLOC_ARRAY or REALLOC_ARRAY, which has two advantages: 1. It automatically checks the array-size multiplication for overflow. 2. It always uses sizeof(*array) for the element-size, so that it can never go out of sync with the declared type of the array.

2015-12-01verify_pack: do not ignore return value of verification functionLibravatar David Turner1-1/+1
In verify_pack, a caller-supplied verification function is called. The function returns an int. If that return value is non-zero, verify_pack should fail. The only caller of verify_pack is in builtin/fsck.c, whose verify_fn returns a meaningful error code (which was then ignored). Now, fsck might return a different error code (with more detail). This would happen in the unlikely event that a commit or tree that is a valid git object but not a valid instance of its type gets into a pack.

fsck is usually a long process and it would be nice if it prints progress from time to time.

2011-11-06fsck: avoid reading every object twiceLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-3/+10
During verify_pack() all objects are read for SHA-1 check. Then fsck_sha1() is called on every object, which read the object again (fsck_sha1 -> parse_object -> read_sha1_file). Avoid reading an object twice, do fsck_sha1 while we have an object uncompressed data in verify_pack.

2011-11-06verify_packfile(): check as many object as possible in a packLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-7/+2
verify_packfile() checks for whole pack integerity first, then each object individually. Once we get past whole pack check, we can identify all objects in the pack. If there's an error with one object, we should continue to check the next objects to salvage as many objects as possible instead of stopping the process.

2011-06-10zlib: zlib can only process 4GB at a timeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
The size of objects we read from the repository and data we try to put into the repository are represented in "unsigned long", so that on larger architectures we can handle objects that weigh more than 4GB. But the interface defined in zlib.h to communicate with inflate/deflate limits avail_in (how many bytes of input are we calling zlib with) and avail_out (how many bytes of output from zlib are we ready to accept) fields effectively to 4GB by defining their type to be uInt. In many places in our code, we allocate a large buffer (e.g. mmap'ing a large loose object file) and tell zlib its size by assigning the size to avail_in field of the stream, but that will truncate the high octets of the real size. The worst part of this story is that we often pass around z_stream (the state object used by zlib) to keep track of the number of used bytes in input/output buffer by inspecting these two fields, which practically limits our callchain to the same 4GB limit. Wrap z_stream in another structure git_zstream that can express avail_in and avail_out in unsigned long. For now, just die() when the caller gives a size that cannot be given to a single zlib call. In later patches in the series, we would make git_inflate() and git_deflate() internally loop to give callers an illusion that our "improved" version of zlib interface can operate on a buffer larger than 4GB in one go.

Compilation of git is probably broken on PPC too for the same reason. Turns out that the only file requiring openssl/ssl.h and openssl/err.h is imap-send.c. But only moving those problematic includes there doesn't solve the issue as it also includes cache.h which brings in the conflicting local SHA1 header file. As suggested by Jeff King, the best solution is to rename our references to SHA1 functions and structure to something git specific, and define those according to the implementation used.

When a pack gets corrupted, its SHA1 checksum will fail. However, this is more useful to let the test go on in order to find the actual problem location than only complain about the SHA1 mismatch and bail out. Also, it is more useful to compare the stored pack SHA1 with the one in the index file instead of the computed SHA1 since the computed SHA1 from a corrupted pack won't match the one stored in the index either.

2007-05-26Lazily open pack index files on demandLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-2/+7
In some repository configurations the user may have many packfiles, but all of the recent commits/trees/tags/blobs are likely to be in the most recent packfile (the one with the newest mtime). It is therefore common to be able to complete an entire operation by accessing only one packfile, even if there are 25 packfiles available to the repository. Rather than opening and mmaping the corresponding .idx file for every pack found, we now only open and map the .idx when we suspect there might be an object of interest in there. Of course we cannot known in advance which packfile contains an object, so we still need to scan the entire packed_git list to locate anything. But odds are users want to access objects in the most recently created packfiles first, and that may be all they ever need for the current operation. Junio observed in b867092f that placing recent packfiles before older ones can slightly improve access times for recent objects, without degrading it for historical object access. This change improves upon Junio's observations by trying even harder to avoid the .idx files that we won't need. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

Especially with the new index format to come, it is more appropriate to encapsulate more into check_packed_git_idx() and assume less of the index format in struct packed_git. To that effect, the index_base is renamed to index_data with void * type so it is not used directly but other pointers initialized with it. This allows for a couple pointer cast removal, as well as providing a better generic name to grep for when adding support for new index versions or formats.

Not all platforms have declared 'unsigned long' to be a 64 bit value, but we want to support a 64 bit packfile (or close enough anyway) in the near future as some projects are getting large enough that their packed size exceeds 4 GiB.

2006-12-29Loop over pack_windows when inflating/accessing data.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-26/+20
When multiple mmaps start getting used for all pack file access it is not possible to get all data associated with a specific object in one contiguous memory region. This limitation prevents simply passing a single address and length to SHA1_Update or to inflate. Instead we need to loop until we have processed all data of interest. As we loop over the data we are always interested in reusing the same window 'cursor', as the prior window will no longer be of any use to us. This allows the use_pack() call to automatically decrement the use count of the prior window before setting up access for us to the next window. Within each loop we need to make use of the available length output parameter of use_pack() to tell us how many bytes are available in the current memory region, as we cannot tell otherwise.

2006-12-29Replace use_packed_git with window cursors.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-10/+12
Part of the implementation concept of the sliding mmap window for pack access is to permit multiple windows per pack to be mapped independently. Since the inuse_cnt is associated with the mmap and not with the file, this value is in struct pack_window and needs to be incremented/decremented for each pack_window accessed by any code. To faciliate that implementation we need to replace all uses of use_packed_git() and unuse_packed_git() with a different API that follows struct pack_window objects rather than struct packed_git. The way this works is when we need to start accessing a pack for the first time we should setup a new window 'cursor' by declaring a local and setting it to NULL: struct pack_windows *w_curs = NULL; To obtain the memory region which contains a specific section of the pack file we invoke use_pack(), supplying the address of our current window cursor: unsigned int len; unsigned char *addr = use_pack(p, &w_curs, offset, &len); the returned address `addr` will be the first byte at `offset` within the pack file. The optional variable len will also be updated with the number of bytes remaining following the address. Multiple calls to use_pack() with the same window cursor will update the window cursor, moving it from one window to another when necessary. In this way each window cursor variable maintains only one struct pack_window inuse at a time. Finally before exiting the scope which originally declared the window cursor we must invoke unuse_pack() to unuse the current window (which may be different from the one that was first obtained from use_pack): unuse_pack(&w_curs); This implementation is still not complete with regards to multiple windows, as only one window per pack file is supported right now.

2006-12-29Refactor packed_git to prepare for sliding mmap windows.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-3/+3
The idea behind the sliding mmap window pack reader implementation is to have multiple mmap regions active against the same pack file, thereby allowing the process to mmap in only the active/hot sections of the pack and reduce overall virtual address space usage. To implement this we need to refactor the mmap related data (pack_base, pack_use_cnt) out of struct packed_git and move them into a new struct pack_window. We are refactoring the code to support a single struct pack_window per packfile, thereby emulating the prior behavior of mmap'ing the entire pack file. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

The unpack_entry_gently function currently has only two callers: the delta base resolution in sha1_file.c and the main loop of pack-check.c. Both of these must change to using unpack_entry directly when we implement sliding window mmap logic, so I'm doing it earlier to help break down the change set. This may cause a slight performance decrease for delta base resolution as well as for pack-check.c's verify_packfile(), as the pack use counter will be incremented and decremented for every object that is unpacked.

2006-09-23many cleanups to sha1_file.cLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-9/+10
Those cleanups are mainly to set the table for the support of deltas with base objects referenced by offsets instead of sha1. This means that many pack lookup functions are converted to take a pack/offset tuple instead of a sha1. This eliminates many struct pack_entry usages since this structure carried redundent information in many cases, and it increased stack footprint needlessly for a couple recursively called functions that used to declare a local copy of it for every recursion loop. In the process, packed_object_info_detail() has been reorganized as well so to look much saner and more amenable to deltas with offset support. Finally the appropriate adjustments have been made to functions that depend on the above changes. But there is no functionality changes yet simply some code refactoring at this point.

2006-02-09remove delta-against-self bitLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-3/+3
After experimenting with code to add the ability to encode a delta against part of the deltified file, it turns out that resulting packs are _bigger_ than when this ability is not used. The raw delta output might be smaller, but it doesn't compress as well using gzip with a negative net saving on average. Said bit would in fact be more useful to allow for encoding the copying of chunks larger than 64KB providing more savings with large files. This will correspond to packs version 3. While the current code still produces packs version 2, it is made future proof so pack versions 2 and 3 are accepted. Any pack version 2 are compatible with version 3 since the redefined bit was never used before. When enough time has passed, code to use that bit to produce version 3 packs could be added.

This implements show_pack_info() function used in verify-pack command when -v flag is used to obtain something like unpack-objects used to give when it was first written. It shows the following for each non-deltified object found in the pack: SHA1 type size offset For deltified objects, it shows this instead: SHA1 type size offset depth base_sha1 In order to get the output in the order that appear in the pack file for debugging purposes, you can do this: $ git-verify-pack -v packfile | sort -n -k 4,4 Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-06-30[PATCH] verify-pack updates.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+112
Nico pointed out that having verify_pack.c and verify-pack.c was confusing. Rename verify_pack.c to pack-check.c as suggested, and enhances the verification done quite a bit. - Built-in sha1_file unpacking knows that a base object of a deltified object _must_ be in the same pack, and takes advantage of that fact. - Earlier verify-pack command only checked the SHA1 sum for the entire pack file and did not look into its contents. It now checks everything idx file claims to have unpacks correctly. - It now has a hook to give more detailed information for objects contained in the pack under -v flag.
