2008-04-09sha1-lookup: more memory efficient search in sorted list of SHA-1Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+32
Currently, when looking for a packed object from the pack idx, a simple binary search is used. A conventional binary search loop looks like this: unsigned lo, hi; do { unsigned mi = (lo + hi) / 2; int cmp = "entry pointed at by mi" minus "target"; if (!cmp) return mi; "mi is the wanted one" if (cmp > 0) hi = mi; "mi is larger than target" else lo = mi+1; "mi is smaller than target" } while (lo < hi); "did not find what we wanted" The invariants are: - When entering the loop, 'lo' points at a slot that is never above the target (it could be at the target), 'hi' points at a slot that is guaranteed to be above the target (it can never be at the target). - We find a point 'mi' between 'lo' and 'hi' ('mi' could be the same as 'lo', but never can be as high as 'hi'), and check if 'mi' hits the target. There are three cases: - if it is a hit, we have found what we are looking for; - if it is strictly higher than the target, we set it to 'hi', and repeat the search. - if it is strictly lower than the target, we update 'lo' to one slot after it, because we allow 'lo' to be at the target and 'mi' is known to be below the target. If the loop exits, there is no matching entry. When choosing 'mi', we do not have to take the "middle" but anywhere in between 'lo' and 'hi', as long as lo <= mi < hi is satisfied. When we somehow know that the distance between the target and 'lo' is much shorter than the target and 'hi', we could pick 'mi' that is much closer to 'lo' than (hi+lo)/2, which a conventional binary search would pick. This patch takes advantage of the fact that the SHA-1 is a good hash function, and as long as there are enough entries in the table, we can expect uniform distribution. An entry that begins with for example "deadbeef..." is much likely to appear much later than in the midway of a reasonably populated table. In fact, it can be expected to be near 87% (222/256) from the top of the table. This is a work-in-progress and has switches to allow easier experiments and debugging. Exporting GIT_USE_LOOKUP environment variable enables this code. On my admittedly memory starved machine, with a partial KDE repository (3.0G pack with 95M idx): $ GIT_USE_LOOKUP=t git log -800 --stat HEAD >/dev/null 3.93user 0.16system 0:04.09elapsed 100%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+55588minor)pagefaults 0swaps Without the patch, the numbers are: $ git log -800 --stat HEAD >/dev/null 4.00user 0.15system 0:04.17elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+60258minor)pagefaults 0swaps In the same repository: $ GIT_USE_LOOKUP=t git log -2000 HEAD >/dev/null 0.12user 0.00system 0:00.12elapsed 97%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+4241minor)pagefaults 0swaps Without the patch, the numbers are: $ git log -2000 HEAD >/dev/null 0.05user 0.01system 0:00.07elapsed 100%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+8506minor)pagefaults 0swaps There isn't much time difference, but the number of minor faults seems to show that we are touching much smaller number of pages, which is expected.

2008-02-06safecrlf: Add mechanism to warn about irreversible crlf conversionsLibravatar Steffen Prohaska1-1/+2
CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data. autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to CRLF during checkout. A file that contains a mixture of LF and CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git. For text files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings such that we have only LF line endings in the repository. But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the conversion can corrupt data. If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes. Right after committing you still have the original file in your work tree and this file is not yet corrupted. You can explicitly tell git that this file is binary and git will handle the file appropriately. Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary files cannot be distinguished. In both cases CRLFs are removed in an irreversible way. For text files this is the right thing to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files converting CRLFs corrupts data. This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert. The mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the following values: - false: disable safecrlf mechanism - warn: warn about irreversible conversions - true: refuse irreversible conversions The default is to warn. Users are only affected by this default if core.autocrlf is set. But the current default of git is to leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism. The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command. The general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are: - we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the original file. - for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree we do not not print annoying warnings. There are exceptions. Even though... - "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the next checkout would, so the safety triggers; - "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the safety does not trigger; - "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add". To catch potential problems early, safety triggers. The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar way by Linus Torvalds. Thanks to Dimitry Potapov for insisting on getting the naked LF/autocrlf=true case right. Signed-off-by: Steffen Prohaska <prohaska@zib.de>
2008-01-17Fix random fast-import errors when compiled with NO_MMAPLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+16
fast-import was relying on the fact that on most systems mmap() and write() are synchronized by the filesystem's buffer cache. We were relying on the ability to mmap() 20 bytes beyond the current end of the file, then later fill in those bytes with a future write() call, then read them through the previously obtained mmap() address. This isn't always true with some implementations of NFS, but it is especially not true with our NO_MMAP=YesPlease build time option used on some platforms. If fast-import was built with NO_MMAP=YesPlease we used the malloc()+pread() emulation and the subsequent write() call does not update the trailing 20 bytes of a previously obtained "mmap()" (aka malloc'd) address. Under NO_MMAP that behavior causes unpack_entry() in sha1_file.c to be unable to read an object header (or data) that has been unlucky enough to be written to the packfile at a location such that it is in the trailing 20 bytes of a window previously opened on that same packfile. This bug has gone unnoticed for a very long time as it is highly data dependent. Not only does the object have to be placed at the right position, but it also needs to be positioned behind some other object that has been accessed due to a branch cache invalidation. In other words the stars had to align just right, and if you did run into this bug you probably should also have purchased a lottery ticket. Fortunately the workaround is a lot easier than the bug explanation. Before we allow unpack_entry() to read data from a pack window that has also (possibly) been modified through write() we force all existing windows on that packfile to be closed. By closing the windows we ensure that any new access via the emulated mmap() will reread the packfile, updating to the current file content. This comes at a slight performance degredation as we cannot reuse previously cached windows when we update the packfile. But it is a fairly minor difference as the window closes happen at only two points: - When the packfile is finalized and its .idx is generated: At this stage we are getting ready to update the refs and any data access into the packfile is going to be random, and is going after only the branch tips (to ensure they are valid). Our existing windows (if any) are not likely to be positioned at useful locations to access those final tip commits so we probably were closing them before anyway. - When the branch cache missed and we need to reload: At this point fast-import is getting change commands for the next commit and it needs to go re-read a tree object it previously had written out to the packfile. What windows we had (if any) are not likely to cover the tree in question so we probably were closing them before anyway. We do try to avoid unnecessarily closing windows in the second case by checking to see if the packfile size has increased since the last time we called unpack_entry() on that packfile. If the size has not changed then we have not written additional data, and any existing window is still vaild. This nicely handles the cases where fast-import is going through a branch cache reload and needs to read many trees at once. During such an event we are not likely to be updating the packfile so we do not cycle the windows between reads. With this change in place t9301-fast-export.sh (which was broken by c3b0dec509fe136c5417422f31898b5a4e2d5e02) finally works again. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-09-29strbuf change: be sure ->buf is never ever NULL.Libravatar Pierre Habouzit1-2/+1
For that purpose, the ->buf is always initialized with a char * buf living in the strbuf module. It is made a char * so that we can sloppily accept things that perform: sb->buf[0] = '\0', and because you can't pass "" as an initializer for ->buf without making gcc unhappy for very good reasons. strbuf_init/_detach/_grow have been fixed to trust ->alloc and not ->buf anymore. as a consequence strbuf_detach is _mandatory_ to detach a buffer, copying ->buf isn't an option anymore, if ->buf is going to escape from the scope, and eventually be free'd. API changes: * strbuf_setlen now always works, so just make strbuf_reset a convenience macro. * strbuf_detatch takes a size_t* optional argument (meaning it can be NULL) to copy the buffer's len, as it was needed for this refactor to make the code more readable, and working like the callers.

* Now, those functions take an "out" strbuf argument, where they store their result if any. In that case, it also returns 1, else it returns 0. * those functions support "in place" editing, in the sense that it's OK to call them this way: convert_to_git(path, sb->buf, sb->len, sb); When doable, conversions are done in place for real, else the strbuf content is just replaced with the new one, transparentely for the caller. If you want to create a new filter working this way, being the accumulation of filter1, filter2, ... filtern, then your meta_filter would be: int meta_filter(..., const char *src, size_t len, struct strbuf *sb) { int ret = 0; ret |= filter1(...., src, len, sb); if (ret) { src = sb->buf; len = sb->len; } ret |= filter2(...., src, len, sb); if (ret) { src = sb->buf; len = sb->len; } .... return ret | filtern(..., src, len, sb); } That's why subfilters the convert_to_* functions called were also rewritten to work this way.

2007-08-25Don't segfault if we failed to inflate a packed deltaLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+4
Under some types of packfile corruption the zlib stream holding the data for a delta within a packfile may fail to inflate, due to say a CRC failure within the compressed data itself. When this occurs the unpack_compressed_entry function will return NULL as a signal to the caller that the data is not available. Unfortunately we then tried to use that NULL as though it referenced a memory location where a delta was stored and tried to apply it to the delta base. Loading a byte from the NULL address typically causes a SIGSEGV. cate on #git noticed this failure in `git fsck --full` where the call to verify_pack() first noticed that the packfile was corrupt by finding that the packfile's SHA-1 did not match the raw data of the file. After finding this fsck went ahead and tried to verify every object within the packfile, even though the packfile was already known to be bad. If we are going to shovel bad data at the delta unpacking code, we better handle it correctly. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The new name is closer to the purpose of the function. A NUL-terminated buffer makes things easier when callers need that. Since the function returns only the memory written with data, almost always allocating more space than needed because final size is unknown, an extra NUL terminating the buffer is harmless. It is not included in the returned size, so the function remains working as before. Also, now the function allows the buffer passed to be NULL at first, and alloc_nr is now used for growing the buffer, instead size=*2.

2007-07-03Don't smash stack when $GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES is too longLibravatar Jim Meyering1-3/+13
There is no restriction on the length of the name returned by get_object_directory, other than the fact that it must be a stat'able git object directory. That means its name may have length up to PATH_MAX-1 (i.e., often 4095) not counting the trailing NUL. Combine that with the assumption that the concatenation of that name and suffixes like "/info/alternates" and "/pack/---long-name---.idx" will fit in a buffer of length PATH_MAX, and you see the problem. Here's a fix: sha1_file.c (prepare_packed_git_one): Lengthen "path" buffer so we are guaranteed to be able to append "/pack/" without checking. Skip any directory entry that is too long to be appended. (read_info_alternates): Protect against a similar buffer overrun. Before this change, using the following admittedly contrived environment setting would cause many git commands to clobber their stack and segfault on a system with PATH_MAX == 4096: t=$(perl -e '$s=".git/objects";$n=(4096-6-length($s))/2;print "./"x$n . $s') export GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES=$t touch g ./git-update-index --add g If you run the above commands, you'll soon notice that many git commands now segfault, so you'll want to do this: unset GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-05-30always start looking up objects in the last used pack firstLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-4/+18
Jon Smirl said: | Once an object reference hits a pack file it is very likely that | following references will hit the same pack file. So first place to | look for an object is the same place the previous object was found. This is indeed a good heuristic so here it is. The search always start with the pack where the last object lookup succeeded. If the wanted object is not available there then the search continues with the normal pack ordering. To test this I split the Linux repository into 66 packs and performed a "time git-rev-list --objects --all > /dev/null". Best results are as follows: Pack Sort w/o this patch w/ this patch ------------------------------------------------------------- recent objects last 26.4s 20.9s recent objects first 24.9s 18.4s This shows that the pack order based on object age has some influence, but that the last-used-pack heuristic is even more significant in reducing object lookup. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> --- Note: the --max-pack-size to git-repack currently produces packs with old objects after those containing recent objects. The pack sort based on filesystem timestamp is therefore backward for those. This needs to be fixed of course, but at least it made me think about this variable for the test.

Calling getenv() is not that expensive, but its also not free, and its certainly not cheaper than testing to see if alt_odb_tail is not null. Because we are calling prepare_alt_odb() from within find_sha1_file every time we cannot find an object file locally we want to skip out of prepare_alt_odb() as early as possible once we have initialized our alternate list.

2007-05-26Lazily open pack index files on demandLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-3/+35
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.

2007-05-10deprecate the new loose object header formatLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-36/+11
Now that we encourage and actively preserve objects in a packed form more agressively than we did at the time the new loose object format and core.legacyheaders were introduced, that extra loose object format doesn't appear to be worth it anymore. Because the packing of loose objects has to go through the delta match loop anyway, and since most of them should end up being deltified in most cases, there is really little advantage to have this parallel loose object format as the CPU savings it might provide is rather lost in the noise in the end. This patch gets rid of core.legacyheaders, preserve the legacy format as the only writable loose object format and deprecate the other one to keep things simpler.

2007-04-25Actually handle some-low memory conditionsLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-5/+5
Tim Ansell discovered his Debian server didn't permit git-daemon to use as much memory as it needed to handle cloning a project with a 128 MiB packfile. Filtering the strace provided by Tim of the rev-list child showed this gem of a sequence: open("./objects/pack/pack-*.pack", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE <unfinished ...> <... open resumed> ) = 5 OK, so the packfile is fd 5... mmap2(NULL, 33554432, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 5, 0 <unfinished ...> <... mmap2 resumed> ) = 0xb5e2d000 and we mapped one 32 MiB window from it at position 0... mmap2(NULL, 31020635, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 5, 0x6000 <unfinished ...> <... mmap2 resumed> ) = -1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory) And we asked for another window further into the file. But got denied. In Tim's case this was due to a resource limit on the git-daemon process, and its children. Now where are we in the code? We're down inside use_pack(), after we have called unuse_one_window() enough times to make sure we stay within our allowed maximum window size. However since we didn't unmap the prior window at 0xb5e2d000 we aren't exceeding the current limit (which probably was just the defaults). But we're actually down inside xmmap()... So we release the window we do have (by calling release_pack_memory), assuming there is some memory pressure... munmap(0xb5e2d000, 33554432 <unfinished ...> <... munmap resumed> ) = 0 close(5 <unfinished ...> <... close resumed> ) = 0 And that was the last window in this packfile. So we closed it. Way to go us. Our xmmap did not expect release_pack_memory to close the fd its about to map... mmap2(NULL, 31020635, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 5, 0x6000 <unfinished ...> <... mmap2 resumed> ) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor) And so the Linux kernel happily tells us f' off. write(2, "fatal: ", 7 <unfinished ...> <... write resumed> ) = 7 write(2, "Out of memory? mmap failed: Bad "..., 47 <unfinished ...> <... write resumed> ) = 47 And we report the bad file descriptor error, and not the ENOMEM, and die, claiming we are out of memory. But actually that mmap should have succeeded, as we had enough memory for that window, seeing as how we released the prior one. Originally when I developed the sliding window mmap feature I had this exact same bug in fast-import, and I dealt with it by handing in the struct packed_git* we want to open the new window for, as the caller wasn't prepared to reopen the packfile if unuse_one_window closed it. The same is true here from xmmap, but the caller doesn't have the struct packed_git* handy. So I'm using the file descriptor instead to perform the same test. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
