2019-08-13packfile: drop release_pack_memory()Libravatar Jeff King1-6/+2
Long ago, in 97bfeb34df (Release pack windows before reporting out of memory., 2006-12-24), we taught xmalloc() and friends to try unmapping pack windows when malloc() failed. It's unlikely that his helps a lot in practice, and it has some downsides. First, the downsides: 1. It makes xmalloc() not thread-safe. We've worked around this in pack-objects.c, which installs its own locking version of the try_to_free_routine(). But other threaded code doesn't. 2. It makes the system as a whole harder to reason about. Functions which allocate heap memory under the hood may have farther-reaching effects than expected. That might be worth the tradeoff if there's a benefit. But in practice, it seems unlikely. We're generally dealing with mmap'd files, so the OS is going to do a much better job at responding to memory pressure by dropping individual pages (the exception is systems with NO_MMAP, but even there the OS can probably respond just as well with swapping). So the only thing we're really freeing is address space. On 64-bit systems, we have plenty of that to go around. On 32-bit systems, it could possibly help. But around the same time we made two other changes: 77ccc5bbd1 (Introduce new config option for mmap limit., 2006-12-23) and 60bb8b1453 (Fully activate the sliding window pack access., 2006-12-23). Together that means that a 32-bit system should have no more than 256MB total of packed-git mmaps at one time, split between a few 32MB windows. It's unlikely we have any address space problems since then, but we don't have any data since the features were all added at the same time. Likewise, xmmap() will try to free memory. At first glance, it seems like we'd need this (when we try to mmap a new window, we might need to close an old one to save address space on a 32-bit system). But we're saved again by core.packedGitLimit: if we're going to exceed our 256MB limit, we'll close an existing window before we even call mmap(). So it seems unlikely that this feature is actually doing anything useful. And while we don't have reports of it harming anything (probably because it rarely if ever kicks in), it would be nice to simplify the system overall. This patch drops the whole try_to_free system from xmalloc(), as well as the manual pack memory release in xmmap().

2019-07-01object-store.h: move for_each_alternate_ref() from transport.hLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+97
There's nothing inherently transport-related about enumerating the alternate ref tips. The code has lived in transport.[ch] because the only use so far had been advertising available tips during transport. But it could be used for more, and a future patch will teach rev-list to access these refs. Let's move it alongside the other alt-odb code, declaring it in object-store.h with the implementation in sha1-file.c. This lets us drop the inclusion of transport.h from receive-pack, which perhaps shows how it was misplaced (though receive-pack is about transporting objects, transport.h is mostly about the client side).

2019-06-25Use promisor_remote_get_direct() and has_promisor_remote()Libravatar Christian Couder1-7/+8
Instead of using the repository_format_partial_clone global and fetch_objects() directly, let's use has_promisor_remote() and promisor_remote_get_direct(). This way all the configured promisor remotes will be taken into account, not only the one specified by extensions.partialClone. Also when cloning or fetching using a partial clone filter, remote.origin.promisor will be set to "true" instead of setting extensions.partialClone to "origin".

2019-05-28sha1-file: split OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCHLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-1/+1
The OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH bitflag was added to sha1-file.c in 0f4a4fb1 (sha1-file: support OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH, 2019-03-29) and is used to prevent the fetch_objects() method when enabled. However, there is a problem with the current use. The definition of OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH is given by adding 32 to OBJECT_INFO_QUICK. This is clearly stated above the definition (in a comment) that this is so OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH implies OBJECT_INFO_QUICK. The problem is that using "flag & OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH" means that OBJECT_INFO_QUICK also implies OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH. Split out the single bit from OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH into a new OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT as the single bit and keep OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH as the union of two flags. This allows a clearer use of flag checking while also keeping the implication of OBJECT_INFO_QUICK.

2019-04-01sha1-file: support OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCHLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-1/+2
Teach oid_object_info_extended() to support a new flag that inhibits fetching of missing objects. This is equivalent to setting fetch_is_missing to 0, calling oid_object_info_extended(), then setting fetch_if_missing to whatever it was before. Update unpack-trees.c to use this new flag instead of repeatedly setting fetch_if_missing. This new flag complicates things slightly in that there are now 2 ways to do the same thing. But this eliminates the need to repeatedly set a global variable, and more importantly, allows prefetching to be done in parallel (in the future); hence, this patch.

These error messages say "sha1 file", which is vague and not common in user-facing documentation. Unlike the conversions from the previous commit, these do not always refer to loose objects. In finalize_object_file() we could be dealing with a packfile. Let's just say "unable to write file" instead; since we include the filename, the nature of the file is clear from the rest of the message.

There are no callers left of has_sha1_file() or its with_flags() variant. Let's drop them, and convert has_object_file() from a wrapper into the "real" function. Ironically, the sha1 variant was just copying into an object_id internally, so the resulting code is actually shorter! We can also drop the coccinelle rules for catching has_sha1_file() callers.

2019-01-08sha1-file: modernize loose header/stream functionsLibravatar Jeff King1-41/+43
As with the open/map/close functions for loose objects that were recently converted, the functions for parsing the loose object stream use the name "sha1" and a bare "unsigned char *". Let's fix that so that unpack_sha1_header() becomes unpack_loose_header(), etc. These conversions are less clear-cut than the file access functions. You could argue that the they are parsing Git's canonical object format (i.e., "type size\0contents", over which we compute the hash), which is not strictly tied to loose storage. But in practice these functions are used only for loose objects, and using the term "loose_header" (instead of "object_header") distinguishes it from the object header found in packfiles (which contains the same information in a different format).

2019-01-08object-store: use one oid_array per subdirectory for loose cacheLibravatar René Scharfe1-3/+6
The loose objects cache is filled one subdirectory at a time as needed. It is stored in an oid_array, which has to be resorted after each add operation. So when querying a wide range of objects, the partially filled array needs to be resorted up to 255 times, which takes over 100 times longer than sorting once. Use one oid_array for each subdirectory. This ensures that entries have to only be sorted a single time. It also avoids eight binary search steps for each cache lookup as a small bonus. The cache is used for collision checks for the log placeholders %h, %t and %p, and we can see the change speeding them up in a repository with ca. 100 objects per subdirectory: $ git count-objects 26733 objects, 68808 kilobytes Test HEAD^ HEAD -------------------------------------------------------------------- 4205.1: log with %H 0.51(0.47+0.04) 0.51(0.49+0.02) +0.0% 4205.2: log with %h 0.84(0.82+0.02) 0.60(0.57+0.03) -28.6% 4205.3: log with %T 0.53(0.49+0.04) 0.52(0.48+0.03) -1.9% 4205.4: log with %t 0.84(0.80+0.04) 0.60(0.59+0.01) -28.6% 4205.5: log with %P 0.52(0.48+0.03) 0.51(0.50+0.01) -1.9% 4205.6: log with %p 0.85(0.78+0.06) 0.61(0.56+0.05) -28.2% 4205.7: log with %h-%h-%h 0.96(0.92+0.03) 0.69(0.64+0.04) -28.1% Reported-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-01-08sha1-file: modernize loose object file functionsLibravatar Jeff King1-40/+41
The loose object access code in sha1-file.c is some of the oldest in Git, and could use some modernizing. It mostly uses "unsigned char *" for object ids, which these days should be "struct object_id". It also uses the term "sha1_file" in many functions, which is confusing. The term "loose_objects" is much better. It clearly distinguishes them from packed objects (which didn't even exist back when the name "sha1_file" came into being). And it also distinguishes it from the checksummed-file concept in csum-file.c (which until recently was actually called "struct sha1file"!). This patch converts the functions {open,close,map,stat}_sha1_file() into open_loose_object(), etc, and switches their sha1 arguments for object_id structs. Similarly, path functions like fill_sha1_path() become fill_loose_path() and use object_ids. The function sha1_loose_object_info() already says "loose", so we can just drop the "sha1" (and teach it to use object_id).

2018-11-14Add a base implementation of SHA-256 supportLibravatar brian m. carlson1-0/+45
SHA-1 is weak and we need to transition to a new hash function. For some time, we have referred to this new function as NewHash. Recently, we decided to pick SHA-256 as NewHash. The reasons behind the choice of SHA-256 are outlined in the thread starting at [1] and in the commit history for the hash function transition document. Add a basic implementation of SHA-256 based off libtomcrypt, which is in the public domain. Optimize it and restructure it to meet our coding standards. Pull in the update and final functions from the SHA-1 block implementation, as we know these function correctly with all compilers. This implementation is slower than SHA-1, but more performant implementations will be introduced in future commits. Wire up SHA-256 in the list of hash algorithms, and add a test that the algorithm works correctly. Note that with this patch, it is still not possible to switch to using SHA-256 in Git. Additional patches are needed to prepare the code to handle a larger hash algorithm and further test fixes are needed.

2018-11-13sha1-file: use loose object cache for quick existence checkLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+20
In cases where we expect to ask has_sha1_file() about a lot of objects that we are not likely to have (e.g., during fetch negotiation), we already use OBJECT_INFO_QUICK to sacrifice accuracy (due to racing with a simultaneous write or repack) for speed (we avoid re-scanning the pack directory). However, even checking for loose objects can be expensive, as we will stat() each one. On many systems this cost isn't too noticeable, but stat() can be particularly slow on some operating systems, or due to network filesystems. Since the QUICK flag already tells us that we're OK with a slightly stale answer, we can use that as a cue to look in our in-memory cache of each object directory. That basically trades an in-memory binary search for a stat() call. Note that it is possible for this to actually be _slower_. We'll do a full readdir() to fill the cache, so if you have a very large number of loose objects and a very small number of lookups, that readdir() may end up more expensive. This shouldn't be a big deal in practice. If you have a large number of reachable loose objects, you'll already run into performance problems (which you should remedy by repacking). You may have unreachable objects which wouldn't otherwise impact performance. Usually these would go away with the prune step of "git gc", but they may be held for up to 2 weeks in the default configuration. So it comes down to how many such objects you might reasonably expect to have, how much slower is readdir() on N entries versus M stat() calls (and here we really care about the syscall backing readdir(), like getdents() on Linux, but I'll just call this readdir() below). If N is much smaller than M (a typical packed repo), we know this is a big win (few readdirs() followed by many uses of the resulting cache). When N and M are similar in size, it's also a win. We care about the latency of making a syscall, and readdir() should be giving us many values in a single call. How many? On Linux, running "strace -e getdents ls" shows a 32k buffer getting 512 entries per call (which is 64 bytes per entry; the name itself is 38 bytes, plus there are some other fields). So we can imagine that this is always a win as long as the number of loose objects in the repository is a factor of 500 less than the number of lookups you make. It's hard to auto-tune this because we don't generally know up front how many lookups we're going to do. But it's unlikely for this to perform significantly worse.

2018-11-13object-store: provide helpers for loose_objects_cacheLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+26
Our object_directory struct has a loose objects cache that all users of the struct can see. But the only one that knows how to load the cache is find_short_object_filename(). Let's extract that logic in to a reusable function. While we're at it, let's also reset the cache when we re-read the object directories. This shouldn't have an impact on performance, as re-reads are meant to be rare (and are already expensive, so we avoid them with things like OBJECT_INFO_QUICK). Since the cache is already meant to be an approximation, it's tempting to skip even this bit of safety. But it's necessary to allow more code to use it. For instance, fetch-pack explicitly re-reads the object directory after performing its fetch, and would be confused if we didn't clear the cache.

2018-11-13sha1-file: use an object_directory for the main object dirLibravatar Jeff King1-78/+44
Our handling of alternate object directories is needlessly different from the main object directory. As a result, many places in the code basically look like this: do_something(r->objects->objdir); for (odb = r->objects->alt_odb_list; odb; odb = odb->next) do_something(odb->path); That gets annoying when do_something() is non-trivial, and we've resorted to gross hacks like creating fake alternates (see find_short_object_filename()). Instead, let's give each raw_object_store a unified list of object_directory structs. The first will be the main store, and everything after is an alternate. Very few callers even care about the distinction, and can just loop over the whole list (and those who care can just treat the first element differently). A few observations: - we don't need r->objects->objectdir anymore, and can just mechanically convert that to r->objects->odb->path - object_directory's path field needs to become a real pointer rather than a FLEX_ARRAY, in order to fill it with expand_base_dir() - we'll call prepare_alt_odb() earlier in many functions (i.e., outside of the loop). This may result in us calling it even when our function would be satisfied looking only at the main odb. But this doesn't matter in practice. It's not a very expensive operation in the first place, and in the majority of cases it will be a noop. We call it already (and cache its results) in prepare_packed_git(), and we'll generally check packs before loose objects. So essentially every program is going to call it immediately once per program. Arguably we should just prepare_alt_odb() immediately upon setting up the repository's object directory, which would save us sprinkling calls throughout the code base (and forgetting to do so has been a source of subtle bugs in the past). But I've stopped short of that here, since there are already a lot of other moving parts in this patch. - Most call sites just get shorter. The check_and_freshen() functions are an exception, because they have entry points to handle local and nonlocal directories separately.

2018-11-13handle alternates paths the same as the main object dirLibravatar Jeff King1-28/+16
When we generate loose file paths for the main object directory, the caller provides a buffer to loose_object_path (formerly sha1_file_name). The callers generally keep their own static buffer to avoid excessive reallocations. But for alternate directories, each struct carries its own scratch buffer. This is needlessly different; let's unify them. We could go either direction here, but this patch moves the alternates struct over to the main directory style (rather than vice-versa). Technically the alternates style is more efficient, as it avoids rewriting the object directory name on each call. But this is unlikely to matter in practice, as we avoid reallocations either way (and nobody has ever noticed or complained that the main object directory is copying a few extra bytes before making a much more expensive system call). And this has the advantage that the reusable buffers are tied to particular calls, which makes the invalidation rules simpler (for example, the return value from stat_sha1_file() used to be invalidated by basically any other object call, but now it is affected only by other calls to stat_sha1_file()). We do steal the trick from alt_sha1_path() of returning a pointer to the filled buffer, which makes a few conversions more convenient.

2018-11-13sha1_file_name(): overwrite buffer instead of appendingLibravatar Jeff King1-10/+8
The sha1_file_name() function is used to generate the path to a loose object in the object directory. It doesn't make much sense for it to append, since the the path we write may be absolute (i.e., you cannot reliably build up a path with it). Because many callers use it with a static buffer, they have to strbuf_reset() manually before each call (and the other callers always use an empty buffer, so they don't care either way). Let's handle this automatically. Since we're changing the semantics, let's take the opportunity to give it a more hash-neutral name (which will also catch any callers from topics in flight).

2018-11-13rename "alternate_object_database" to "object_directory"Libravatar Jeff King1-24/+24
In preparation for unifying the handling of alt odb's and the normal repo object directory, let's use a more neutral name. This patch is purely mechanical, swapping the type name, and converting any variables named "alt" to "odb". There should be no functional change, but it will reduce the noise in subsequent diffs.

2018-11-12Upcast size_t variables to uintmax_t when printingLibravatar Torsten Bögershausen1-3/+3
When printing variables which contain a size, today "unsigned long" is used at many places. In order to be able to change the type from "unsigned long" into size_t some day in the future, we need to have a way to print 64 bit variables on a system that has "unsigned long" defined to be 32 bit, like Win64. Upcast all those variables into uintmax_t before they are printed. This is to prepare for a bigger change, when "unsigned long" will be converted into size_t for variables which may be > 4Gib.

2018-10-22sha1-file: provide functions to look up hash algorithmsLibravatar brian m. carlson1-0/+21
There are several ways we might refer to a hash algorithm: by name, such as in the config file; by format ID, such as in a pack; or internally, by a pointer to the hash_algos array. Provide functions to look up hash algorithms based on these various forms and return the internal constant used for them. If conversion to another form is necessary, this internal constant can be used to look up the proper data in the hash_algos array.

2018-10-22sha1-file: rename algorithm to "sha1"Libravatar brian m. carlson1-1/+1
The transition plan anticipates us using a syntax such as "^{sha1}" for disambiguation. Since this is a syntax some people will be typing a lot, it makes sense to provide a short, easy-to-type syntax. Omitting the dash doesn't create any ambiguity; however, it does make the syntax shorter and easier to type, especially for touch typists. In addition, the transition plan already uses "sha1" in this context. Rename the name of SHA-1 implementation to "sha1". Note that this change creates no backwards compatibility concerns, since we haven't yet used this field in any configuration settings.
