2008-04-12write_index(): optimize ce_smudge_racily_clean_entry() calls with CE_UPTODATELibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
When writing the index out, we need to check the work tree again to see if an entry whose timestamp indicates that it could be "racily clean", in order to smudge it if it is stat-clean but with modified contents. However, we can skip this step for entries marked with CE_UPTODATE, which are known to be the really clean (i.e. the one we already have checked when we prepared the index). This will reduce lstat(2) calls necessary in git-status. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-03-09Add 'const' where appropriate to index handling functionsLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-6/+6
This is in an effort to make the source index of 'unpack_trees()' as being const, and thus making the compiler help us verify that we only access it for reading.

2008-03-09Add 'df_name_compare()' helper functionLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+35
This new helper is identical to base_name_compare(), except it compares conflicting directory/file entries as equal in order to help handling DF conflicts (thus the name). Note that while a directory name compares as equal to a regular file with the new helper, they then individually compare _differently_ to a filename that has a dot after the basename (because '\0' < '.' < '/'). So a directory called "foo/" will compare equal to a file "foo", even though "foo.c" will compare after "foo" and before "foo/" This will be used by routines that want to traverse the git namespace but then handle conflicting entries together when possible.

2008-02-22Name hash fixups: export (and rename) remove_hash_entryLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-16/+2
This makes the name hash removal function (which really just sets the bit that disables lookups of it) available to external routines, and makes read_cache_unmerged() use it when it drops an unmerged entry from the index. It's renamed to remove_index_entry(), and we drop the (unused) 'istate' argument. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-02-22Fix name re-hashing semanticsLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-5/+9
We handled the case of removing and re-inserting cache entries badly, which is something that merging commonly needs to do (removing the different stages, and then re-inserting one of them as the merged state). We even had a rather ugly special case for this failure case, where replace_index_entry() basically turned itself into a no-op if the new and the old entries were the same, exactly because the hash routines didn't handle it on their own. So what this patch does is to not just have the UNHASHED bit, but a HASHED bit too, and when you insert an entry into the name hash, that involves: - clear the UNHASHED bit, because now it's valid again for lookup (which is really all that UNHASHED meant) - if we're being lazy, we're done here (but we still want to clear the UNHASHED bit regardless of lazy mode, since we can become unlazy later, and so we need the UNHASHED bit to always be set correctly, even if we never actually insert the entry into the hash list) - if it was already hashed, we just leave it on the list - otherwise mark it HASHED and insert it into the list this all means that unhashing and rehashing a name all just works automatically. Obviously, you cannot change the name of an entry (that would be a serious bug), but nothing can validly do that anyway (you'd have to allocate a new struct cache_entry anyway since the name length could change), so that's not a new limitation. The code actually gets simpler in many ways, although the lazy hashing does mean that there are a few odd cases (ie something can be marked unhashed even though it was never on the hash in the first place, and isn't actually marked hashed!).

2008-01-22Create pathname-based hash-table lookup into indexLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-10/+88
This creates a hash index of every single file added to the index. Right now that hash index isn't actually used for much: I implemented a "cache_name_exists()" function that uses it to efficiently look up a filename in the index without having to do the O(logn) binary search, but quite frankly, that's not why this patch is interesting. No, the whole and only reason to create the hash of the filenames in the index is that by modifying the hash function, you can fairly easily do things like making it always hash equivalent names into the same bucket. That, in turn, means that suddenly questions like "does this name exist in the index under an _equivalent_ name?" becomes much much cheaper. Guiding principles behind this patch: - it shouldn't be too costly. In fact, my primary goal here was to actually speed up "git commit" with a fully populated kernel tree, by being faster at checking whether a file already existed in the index. I did succeed, but only barely: Best before: [torvalds@woody linux]$ time git commit > /dev/null real 0m0.255s user 0m0.168s sys 0m0.088s Best after: [torvalds@woody linux]$ time ~/git/git commit > /dev/null real 0m0.233s user 0m0.144s sys 0m0.088s so some things are actually faster (~8%). Caveat: that's really the best case. Other things are invariably going to be slightly slower, since we populate that index cache, and quite frankly, few things really use it to look things up. That said, the cost is really quite small. The worst case is probably doing a "git ls-files", which will do very little except puopulate the index, and never actually looks anything up in it, just lists it. Before: [torvalds@woody linux]$ time git ls-files > /dev/null real 0m0.016s user 0m0.016s sys 0m0.000s After: [torvalds@woody linux]$ time ~/git/git ls-files > /dev/null real 0m0.021s user 0m0.012s sys 0m0.008s and while the thing has really gotten relatively much slower, we're still talking about something almost unmeasurable (eg 5ms). And that really should be pretty much the worst case. So we lose 5ms on one "benchmark", but win 22ms on another. Pick your poison - this patch has the advantage that it will _likely_ speed up the cases that are complex and expensive more than it slows down the cases that are already so fast that nobody cares. But if you look at relative speedups/slowdowns, it doesn't look so good. - It should be simple and clean The code may be a bit subtle (the reasons I do hash removal the way I do etc), but it re-uses the existing hash.c files, so it really is fairly small and straightforward apart from a few odd details. Now, this patch on its own doesn't really do much, but I think it's worth looking at, if only because if done correctly, the name hashing really can make an improvement to the whole issue of "do we have a filename that looks like this in the index already". And at least it gets real testing by being used even by default (ie there is a real use-case for it even without any insane filesystems). NOTE NOTE NOTE! The current hash is a joke. I'm ashamed of it, I'm just not ashamed of it enough to really care. I took all the numbers out of my nether regions - I'm sure it's good enough that it works in practice, but the whole point was that you can make a really much fancier hash that hashes characters not directly, but by their upper-case value or something like that, and thus you get a case-insensitive hash, while still keeping the name and the index itself totally case sensitive.

2008-01-22read-cache.c: fix a couple more CE_REMOVE conversionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+4
It is a D/F conflict if you want to add "foo/bar" to the index when "foo" already exists. Also it is a conflict if you want to add a file "foo" when "foo/bar" exists. An exception is when the existing entry is there only to mark "I used to be here but I am being removed". This is needed for operations such as "git read-tree -m -u" that update the index and then reflect the result to the work tree --- we need to remember what to remove somewhere, and we use the index for that. In such a case, an existing file "foo" is being removed and we can create "foo/" directory and hang "bar" underneath it without any conflict. We used to use (ce->ce_mode == 0) to mark an entry that is being removed, but (CE_REMOVE & ce->ce_flags) is used for that purpose these days. An earlier commit forgot to convert the logic in the code that checks D/F conflict condition. The old code knew that "to be removed" entries cannot be at higher stage and actively checked that condition, but it was an unnecessary check. This patch removes the extra check as well.

2008-01-21Avoid running lstat(2) on the same cache entry.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+15
Aside from the lstat(2) done for work tree files, there are quite many lstat(2) calls in refname dwimming codepath. This patch is not about reducing them. * It adds a new ce_flag, CE_UPTODATE, that is meant to mark the cache entries that record a regular file blob that is up to date in the work tree. If somebody later walks the index and wants to see if the work tree has changes, they do not have to be checked with lstat(2) again. * fill_stat_cache_info() marks the cache entry it just added with CE_UPTODATE. This has the effect of marking the paths we write out of the index and lstat(2) immediately as "no need to lstat -- we know it is up-to-date", from quite a lot fo callers: - git-apply --index - git-update-index - git-checkout-index - git-add (uses add_file_to_index()) - git-commit (ditto) - git-mv (ditto) * refresh_cache_ent() also marks the cache entry that are clean with CE_UPTODATE. * write_index is changed not to write CE_UPTODATE out to the index file, because CE_UPTODATE is meant to be transient only in core. For the same reason, CE_UPDATE is not written to prevent an accident from happening. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-01-21index: be careful when handling long namesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+11
We currently use lower 12-bit (masked with CE_NAMEMASK) in the ce_flags field to store the length of the name in cache_entry, without checking the length parameter given to create_ce_flags(). This can make us store incorrect length. Currently we are mostly protected by the fact that many codepaths first copy the path in a variable of size PATH_MAX, which typically is 4096 that happens to match the limit, but that feels like a bug waiting to happen. Besides, that would not allow us to shorten the width of CE_NAMEMASK to use the bits for new flags. This redefines the meaning of the name length stored in the cache_entry. A name that does not fit is represented by storing CE_NAMEMASK in the field, and the actual length needs to be computed by actually counting the bytes in the name[] field. This way, only the unusually long paths need to suffer. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-01-21Make on-disk index representation separate from in-core oneLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-82/+118
This converts the index explicitly on read and write to its on-disk format, allowing the in-core format to contain more flags, and be simpler. In particular, the in-core format is now host-endian (as opposed to the on-disk one that is network endian in order to be able to be shared across machines) and as a result we can dispense with all the htonl/ntohl on accesses to the cache_entry fields. This will make it easier to make use of various temporary flags that do not exist in the on-disk format. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-11-10git-add: make the entry stat-clean after re-adding the same contentsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+2
Earlier in commit 0781b8a9b2fe760fc4ed519a3a26e4b9bd6ccffe (add_file_to_index: skip rehashing if the cached stat already matches), add_file_to_index() were taught not to re-add the path if it already matches the index. The change meant well, but was not executed quite right. It used ie_modified() to see if the file on the work tree is really different from the index, and skipped adding the contents if the function says "not modified". This was wrong. There are three possible comparison results between the index and the file in the work tree: - with lstat(2) we _know_ they are different. E.g. if the length or the owner in the cached stat information is different from the length we just obtained from lstat(2), we can tell the file is modified without looking at the actual contents. - with lstat(2) we _know_ they are the same. The same length, the same owner, the same everything (but this has a twist, as described below). - we cannot tell from lstat(2) information alone and need to go to the filesystem to actually compare. The last case arises from what we call 'racy git' situation, that can be caused with this sequence: $ echo hello >file $ git add file $ echo aeiou >file ;# the same length If the second "echo" is done within the same filesystem timestamp granularity as the first "echo", then the timestamp recorded by "git add" and the timestamp we get from lstat(2) will be the same, and we can mistakenly say the file is not modified. The path is called 'racily clean'. We need to reliably detect racily clean paths are in fact modified. To solve this problem, when we write out the index, we mark the index entry that has the same timestamp as the index file itself (that is the time from the point of view of the filesystem) to tell any later code that does the lstat(2) comparison not to trust the cached stat info, and ie_modified() then actually goes to the filesystem to compare the contents for such a path. That's all good, but it should not be used for this "git add" optimization, as the goal of "git add" is to actually update the path in the index and make it stat-clean. With the false optimization, we did _not_ cause any data loss (after all, what we failed to do was only to update the cached stat information), but it made the following sequence leave the file stat dirty: $ echo hello >file $ git add file $ echo hello >file ;# the same contents $ git add file The solution is not to use ie_modified() which goes to the filesystem to see if it is really clean, but instead use ie_match_stat() with "assume racily clean paths are dirty" option, to force re-adding of such a path. There was another problem with "git add -u". The codepath shares the same issue when adding the paths that are found to be modified, but in addition, it asked "git diff-files" machinery run_diff_files() function (which is "git diff-files") to list the paths that are modified. But "git diff-files" machinery uses the same ie_modified() call so that it does not report racily clean _and_ actually clean paths as modified, which is not what we want. The patch allows the callers of run_diff_files() to pass the same "assume racily clean paths are dirty" option, and makes "git-add -u" codepath to use that option, to discover and re-add racily clean _and_ actually clean paths. We could further optimize on top of this patch to differentiate the case where the path really needs re-adding (i.e. the content of the racily clean entry was indeed different) and the case where only the cached stat information needs to be refreshed (i.e. the racily clean entry was actually clean), but I do not think it is worth it. This patch applies to maint and all the way up. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

If we are in the middle of resolving a merge conflict there may be one or more files whose entries in the index represent an unmerged state (index entries in the higher-order stages). Attempting to run git-blame on any file in such a working directory resulted in "fatal: internal error: ce_mode is 0" as we use the magic marker for an unmerged entry is 0 (set up by things like diff-lib.c's do_diff_cache() and builtin-read-tree.c's read_tree_unmerged()) and the ce_match_stat_basic() function gets upset about this. I'm not entirely sure that the whole "ce_mode = 0" case is a good idea to begin with, and maybe the right thing to do is to remove that horrid freakish special case, but removing the internal error seems to be the simplest fix for now.

2007-09-14Simplify cache APILibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+2
Earlier, add_file_to_index() invalidated the path in the cache-tree but remove_file_from_cache() did not, and the user of the latter needed to invalidate the entry himself. This led to a few bugs due to missed invalidate calls already. This patch makes the management of cache-tree less error prone by making more invalidate calls from lower level cache API functions. The rules are: - If you are going to write the index, you should either maintain cache_tree correctly. - If you cannot, alternatively you can remove the entire cache_tree by calling cache_tree_free() before you call write_cache(). - When you modify the index, cache_tree_invalidate_path() should be called with the path you are modifying, to discard the entry from the cache-tree structure. - The following cache API functions exported from read-cache.c (and the macro whose names have "cache" instead of "index") automatically call cache_tree_invalidate_path() for you: - remove_file_from_index(); - add_file_to_index(); - add_index_entry(); You can modify the index bypassing the above API functions (e.g. find an existing cache entry from the index and modify it in place).

2007-08-10Optimize "diff --cached" performance.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+18
The read_tree() function is called only from the call chain to run "git diff --cached" (this includes the internal call made by git-runstatus to run_diff_index()). The function vacates stage without any funky "merge" magic. The caller then goes and compares stage #1 entries from the tree with stage #0 entries from the original index. When adding the cache entries this way, it used the general purpose add_cache_entry(). This function looks for an existing entry to replace or if there is none to find where to insert the new entry, resolves D/F conflict and all the other things. For the purpose of reading entries into an empty stage, none of that processing is needed. We can instead append everything and then sort the result at the end. This commit changes read_tree() to first make sure that there is no existing cache entries at specified stage, and if that is the case, it runs add_cache_entry() with ADD_CACHE_JUST_APPEND flag (new), and then sort the resulting cache using qsort(). This new flag tells add_cache_entry() to omit all the checks such as "Does this path already exist? Does adding this path remove other existing entries because it turns a directory to a file?" and instead append the given cache entry straight at the end of the active cache. The caller of course is expected to sort the resulting cache at the end before using the result. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-04-11Teach directory traversal about subprojectsLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+4
This is the promised cleaned-up version of teaching directory traversal (ie the "read_directory()" logic) about subprojects. That makes "git add" understand to add/update subprojects. It now knows to look at the index file to see if a directory is marked as a subproject, and use that as information as whether it should be recursed into or not. It also generally cleans up the handling of directory entries when traversing the working tree, by splitting up the decision-making process into small functions of their own, and adding a fair number of comments. Finally, it teaches "add_file_to_cache()" that directory names can have slashes at the end, since the directory traversal adds them to make the difference between a file and a directory clear (it always did that, but my previous too-ugly-to-apply subproject patch had a totally different path for subproject directories and avoided the slash for that case).

2007-04-11Fix thinko in subproject entry sortingLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-2/+2
This fixes a total thinko in my original series: subprojects do *not* sort like directories, because the index is sorted purely by full pathname, and since a subproject shows up in the index as a normal NUL-terminated string, it never has the issues with sorting with the '/' at the end. So if you have a subproject "proj" and a file "proj.c", the subproject sorts alphabetically before the file in the index (and must thus also sort that way in a tree object, since trees sort as the index). In contrast, it you have two files "proj/file" and "proj.c", the "proj.c" will sort alphabetically before "proj/file" in the index. The index itself, of course, does not actually contain an entry "proj/", but in the *tree* that gets written out, the tree entry "proj" will sort after the file entry "proj.c", which is the only real magic sorting rule. In other words: the magic sorting rule only affects tree entries, and *only* affects tree entries that point to other trees (ie are of the type S_IFDIR). Anyway, that thinko just means that we should remove the special case to make S_ISDIRLNK entries sort like S_ISDIR entries. They don't. They sort like normal files.

2007-04-10Teach core object handling functions about gitlinksLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-4/+31
This teaches the really fundamental core SHA1 object handling routines about gitlinks. We can compare trees with gitlinks in them (although we can not actually generate patches for them yet - just raw git diffs), and they show up as commits in "git ls-tree". We also know to compare gitlinks as if they were directories (ie the normal "sort as trees" rules apply).

2007-04-07Merge branch 'jc/read-tree-df' (early part)Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-9/+31
* 'jc/read-tree-df' (early part): Fix switching to a branch with D/F when current branch has file D. Fix twoway_merge that passed d/f conflict marker to merged_entry(). Fix read-tree --prefix=dir/. unpack-trees: get rid of *indpos parameter. unpack_trees.c: pass unpack_trees_options structure to keep_entry() as well. add_cache_entry(): removal of file foo does not conflict with foo/bar
2007-04-05Rename add_file_to_index() to add_file_to_cache()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
This function was not called "add_file_to_cache()" only because an ancient program, update-cache, used that name as an internal function name that does something slightly different. Now that is gone, we can take over the better name. The plan is to name all functions that operate on the default index xxx_cache(). Later patches create a variant of them that take an explicit parameter xxx_index(), and then turn xxx_cache() functions into macros that use "the_index".

2007-04-05Propagate cache error internal to refresh_cache() via parameter.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+13
The function refresh_cache() is the only user of cache_errno that switches its behaviour based on what internal function refresh_cache_entry() finds; pass the error status back in a parameter passed down to it, to get rid of the global variable cache_errno.

2007-04-05Fix bogus error message from merge-recursive error pathLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
This error message should not usually trigger, but the function make_cache_entry() called by add_cacheinfo() can return early without calling into refresh_cache_entry() that sets cache_errno. Also the error message had a wrong function name reported, and it did not say anything about which path failed either. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-03-07Cast 64 bit off_t to 32 bit size_tLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-3/+3
Some systems have sizeof(off_t) == 8 while sizeof(size_t) == 4. This implies that we are able to access and work on files whose maximum length is around 2^63-1 bytes, but we can only malloc or mmap somewhat less than 2^32-1 bytes of memory. On such a system an implicit conversion of off_t to size_t can cause the size_t to wrap, resulting in unexpected and exciting behavior. Right now we are working around all gcc warnings generated by the -Wshorten-64-to-32 option by passing the off_t through xsize_t(). In the future we should make xsize_t on such problematic platforms detect the wrapping and die if such a file is accessed. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-03-02Add core.symlinks to mark filesystems that do not support symbolic links.Libravatar Johannes Sixt1-4/+6
Some file systems that can host git repositories and their working copies do not support symbolic links. But then if the repository contains a symbolic link, it is impossible to check out the working copy. This patch enables partial support of symbolic links so that it is possible to check out a working copy on such a file system. A new flag core.symlinks (which is true by default) can be set to false to indicate that the filesystem does not support symbolic links. In this case, symbolic links that exist in the trees are checked out as small plain files, and checking in modifications of these files preserve the symlink property in the database (as long as an entry exists in the index). Of course, this does not magically make symbolic links work on such defective file systems; hence, this solution does not help if the working copy relies on that an entry is a real symbolic link.

2007-02-27convert object type handling from a string to a numberLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-2/+2
We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types in the code: a string and a numerical value. One of them is obviously redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch of strcmp() all over the place. This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array found in object reading code paths. The patch is unfortunately large but there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the system.

When we do not trust executable bit from lstat(2), we copied existing ce_mode bits without checking if the filesystem object is a regular file (which is the only thing we apply the "trust executable bit" business) nor if the blob in the index is a regular file (otherwise, we should do the same as registering a new regular file, which is to default non-executable).

We have a number of badly checked write() calls. Often we are expecting write() to write exactly the size we requested or fail, this fails to handle interrupts or short writes. Switch to using the new write_in_full(). Otherwise we at a minimum need to check for EINTR and EAGAIN, where this is appropriate use xwrite(). Note, the changes to config handling are much larger and handled in the next patch in the sequence. Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
