Performance fix for "rev-list --parents -- pathspec".
* jk/revision-rewritten-parents-in-prio-queue:
revision: use a prio_queue to hold rewritten parents
|
|
This patch fixes a quadratic list insertion in rewrite_one() when
pathspec limiting is combined with --parents. What happens is something
like this:
1. We see that some commit X touches the path, so we try to rewrite
its parents.
2. rewrite_one() loops forever, rewriting parents, until it finds a
relevant parent (or hits the root and decides there are none). The
heavy lifting is done by process_parent(), which uses
try_to_simplify_commit() to drop parents.
3. process_parent() puts any intermediate parents into the
&revs->commits list, inserting by commit date as usual.
So if commit X is recent, and then there's a large chunk of history that
doesn't touch the path, we may add a lot of commits to &revs->commits.
And insertion by commit date is O(n) in the worst case, making the whole
thing quadratic.
We tried to deal with this long ago in fce87ae538 (Fix quadratic
performance in rewrite_one., 2008-07-12). In that scheme, we cache the
oldest commit in the list; if the new commit to be added is older, we
can start our linear traversal there. This often works well in practice
because parents are older than their descendants, and thus we tend to
add older and older commits as we traverse.
But this isn't guaranteed, and in fact there's a simple case where it is
not: merges. Imagine we look at the first parent of a merge and see a
very old commit (let's say 3 years old). And on the second parent, as we
go back 3 years in history, we might have many commits. That one
first-parent commit has polluted our oldest-commit cache; it will remain
the oldest while we traverse a huge chunk of history, during which we
have to fall back to the slow, linear method of adding to the list.
Naively, one might imagine that instead of caching the oldest commit,
we'd start at the last-added one. But that just makes some cases faster
while making others slower (and indeed, while it made a real-world test
case much faster, it does quite poorly in the perf test include here).
Fundamentally, these are just heuristics; our worst case is still
quadratic, and some cases will approach that.
Instead, let's use a data structure with better worst-case performance.
Swapping out revs->commits for something else would have repercussions
all over the code base, but we can take advantage of one fact: for the
rewrite_one() case, nobody actually needs to see those commits in
revs->commits until we've finished generating the whole list.
That leaves us with two obvious options:
1. We can generate the list _unordered_, which should be O(n), and
then sort it afterwards, which would be O(n log n) total. This is
"sort-after" below.
2. We can insert the commits into a separate data structure, like a
priority queue. This is "prio-queue" below.
I expected that sort-after would be the fastest (since it saves us the
extra step of copying the items into the linked list), but surprisingly
the prio-queue seems to be a bit faster.
Here are timings for the new p0001.6 for all three techniques across a
few repositories, as compared to master:
master cache-last sort-after prio-queue
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GIT_PERF_REPO=git.git
0.52(0.50+0.02) 0.53(0.51+0.02) +1.9% 0.37(0.33+0.03) -28.8% 0.37(0.32+0.04) -28.8%
GIT_PERF_REPO=linux.git
20.81(20.74+0.07) 20.31(20.24+0.07) -2.4% 0.94(0.86+0.07) -95.5% 0.91(0.82+0.09) -95.6%
GIT_PERF_REPO=llvm-project.git
83.67(83.57+0.09) 4.23(4.15+0.08) -94.9% 3.21(3.15+0.06) -96.2% 2.98(2.91+0.07) -96.4%
A few items to note:
- the cache-list tweak does improve the bad case for llvm-project.git
that started my digging into this problem. But it performs terribly
on linux.git, barely helping at all.
- the sort-after and prio-queue techniques work well. They approach
the timing for running without --parents at all, which is what you'd
expect (see below for more data).
- prio-queue just barely outperforms sort-after. As I said, I'm not
really sure why this is the case, but it is. You can see it even
more prominently in this real-world case on llvm-project.git:
git rev-list --parents 07ef786652e7 -- llvm/test/CodeGen/Generic/bswap.ll
where prio-queue routinely outperforms sort-after by about 7%. One
guess is that the prio-queue may just be more efficient because it
uses a compact array.
There are three new perf tests:
- "rev-list --parents" gives us a baseline for running with --parents.
This isn't sped up meaningfully here, because the bad case is
triggered only with simplification. But it's good to make sure we
don't screw it up (now, or in the future).
- "rev-list -- dummy" gives us a baseline for just traversing with
pathspec limiting. This gives a lower bound for the next test (and
it's also a good thing for us to be checking in general for
regressions, since we don't seem to have any existing tests).
- "rev-list --parents -- dummy" shows off the problem (and our fix)
Here are the timings for those three on llvm-project.git, before and
after the fix:
Test master prio-queue
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0001.3: rev-list --parents 2.24(2.12+0.12) 2.22(2.11+0.11) -0.9%
0001.5: rev-list -- dummy 2.89(2.82+0.07) 2.92(2.89+0.03) +1.0%
0001.6: rev-list --parents -- dummy 83.67(83.57+0.09) 2.98(2.91+0.07) -96.4%
Changes in the first two are basically noise, and you can see we
approach our lower bound in the final one.
Note that we can't fully get rid of the list argument from
process_parents(). Other callers do have lists, and it would be hard to
convert them. They also don't seem to have this problem (probably
because they actually remove items from the list as they loop, meaning
it doesn't grow so large in the first place). So this basically just
drops the "cache_ptr" parameter (which was used only by the one caller
we're fixing here) and replaces it with a prio_queue. Callers are free
to use either data structure, depending on what they're prepared to
handle.

Since its inception, the perf-lib.sh script has manually handled the
"--tee" option (and other options which imply it, like "--valgrind")
with a cut-and-pasted block from test-lib.sh. That block has grown stale
over the years, and has at least three problems:
1. It uses $SHELL to re-exec the script, whereas the version in
test-lib.sh learned to use $TEST_SHELL_PATH.
2. It does an ad-hoc search of the "$*" string, whereas test-lib.sh
learned to carefully parse the arguments left to right.
3. It never learned about --verbose-log (which also implies --tee),
so it would not trigger for that option.
This last one was especially annoying, because t/perf/run uses the
GIT_TEST_OPTS from your config.mak to run the perf scripts. So if you've
set, say, "-x --verbose-log" there, it will be passed as part of most
perf runs. And while this script doesn't recognize the option, the
test-lib.sh that we source _does_, and the behavior ends up being much
more annoying:
- as the comment at the top of the block says, we have to run this
tee code early, before we start munging variables (it says
GIT_BUILD_DIR, but the problematic variable is actually
GIT_TEST_INSTALLED).
- since we don't recognize --verbose-log, we don't trigger the block.
We go on to munge GIT_TEST_INSTALLED, converting it from a relative
to an absolute path.
- then we source test-lib.sh, which _does_ recognize --verbose-log. It
re-execs the script, which runs again. But this time with an
absolute version of GIT_TEST_INSTALLED.
- As a result, we copy the absolute version of GIT_TEST_INSTALLED into
perf_results_prefix. Instead of writing our results to the expected
"test-results/build_1234abcd.p1234-whatever.times", we instead write
them to "test-results/_full_path_to_repo_t_perf_build_1234...".
The aggregate.perl script doesn't expect this, and so it prints
"<missing>" for each result (even though it spent considerable time
running the tests!).
We can solve all of these in one blow by just deleting our custom
handling, and relying on the inclusion of test-lib.sh to handle --tee,
--verbose-log, etc.
There's one catch, though. We want to handle GIT_TEST_INSTALLED after
we've included test-lib.sh, since we want it un-munged in the re-exec'd
version of the script. But if we want to convert it from a relative
to an absolute path, we must do so before we load test-lib.sh, since it
will change our working directory. So we compute the absolute directory
first, store it away, then include test-lib.sh, and finally assign to
GIT_TEST_INSTALLED as appropriate.

Pruning generally has to traverse the whole commit graph in order to
see which objects are reachable. This is the exact problem that
reachability bitmaps were meant to solve, so let's use them (if they're
available, of course).
Here are timings on git.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 3.65(3.56+0.09) 1.01(0.92+0.08) -72.3%
And on linux.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 35.05(34.79+0.23) 3.00(2.78+0.21) -91.4%
The tests show a pretty optimal case, as we'll have just repacked and
should have pretty good coverage of all refs with our bitmaps. But
that's actually pretty realistic: normally prune is run via "gc" right
after repacking.
A few notes on the implementation:
- the change is actually in reachable.c, so it would improve
reachability traversals by "reflog expire --stale-fix", as well.
Those aren't performed regularly, though (a normal "git gc" doesn't
use --stale-fix), so they're not really worth measuring. There's a
low chance of regressing that caller, since the use of bitmaps is
totally transparent from the caller's perspective.
- The bitmap case could actually get away without creating a "struct
object", and instead the caller could just look up each object id in
the bitmap result. However, this would be a marginal improvement in
runtime, and it would make the callers much more complicated. They'd
have to handle both the bitmap and non-bitmap cases separately, and
in the case of git-prune, we'd also have to tweak prune_shallow(),
which relies on our SEEN flags.
- Because we do create real object structs, we go through a few
contortions to create ones of the right type. This isn't strictly
necessary (lookup_unknown_object() would suffice), but it's more
memory efficient to use the correct types, since we already know
them.

The general strategy of "git prune" is to do a full reachability walk,
then for each loose object see if we found it in our walk. But if we
don't have any loose objects, we don't need to do the expensive walk in
the first place.
This patch postpones that walk until the first time we need to see its
results.
Note that this is really a specific case of a more general optimization,
which is that we could traverse only far enough to find the object under
consideration (i.e., stop the traversal when we find it, then pick up
again when asked about the next object, etc). That could save us in some
instances from having to do a full walk. But it's actually a bit tricky
to do with our traversal code, and you'd need to do a full walk anyway
if you have even a single unreachable object (which you generally do, if
any objects are actually left after running git-repack).
So in practice this lazy-load of the full walk catches one easy but
common case (i.e., you've just repacked via git-gc, and there's nothing
unreachable).
The perf script is fairly contrived, but it does show off the
improvement:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.4: prune with no objects 3.66(3.60+0.05) 0.00(0.00+0.00) -100.0%
and would let us know if we accidentally regress this optimization.
Note also that we need to take special care with prune_shallow(), which
relies on us having performed the traversal. So this optimization can
only kick in for a non-shallow repository. Since this is easy to get
wrong and is not covered by existing tests, let's add an extra test to
t5304 that covers this case explicitly.

Some of the functions in our test library check that they were invoked
properly with conditions like this:
test "$#" = 2 ||
error "bug in the test script: not 2 parameters to test-expect-success"
If this particular condition is triggered, then 'error' will abort the
whole test script with a bold red error message [1] right away.
However, under certain circumstances the test script will be aborted
completely silently, namely if:
- a similar condition in a test helper function like
'test_line_count' is triggered,
- which is invoked from the test script's "main" shell [2],
- and the test script is run manually (i.e. './t1234-foo.sh' as
opposed to 'make t1234-foo.sh' or 'make test') [3]
- and without the '--verbose' option,
because the error message is printed from within 'test_eval_', where
standard output is redirected either to /dev/null or to a log file.
The only indication that something is wrong is that not all tests in
the script are executed and at the end of the test script's output
there is no "# passed all N tests" message, which are subtle and can
easily go unnoticed, as I had to experience myself.
Send these "bug in the test script" error messages directly to the
test scripts standard error and thus to the terminal, so those bugs
will be much harder to overlook. Instead of updating all ~20 such
'error' calls with a redirection, let's add a BUG() function to
'test-lib.sh', wrapping an 'error' call with the proper redirection
and also including the common prefix of those error messages, and
convert all those call sites [4] to use this new BUG() function
instead.
[1] That particular error message from 'test_expect_success' is
printed in color only when running with or without '--verbose';
with '--tee' or '--verbose-log' the error is printed without
color, but it is printed to the terminal nonetheless.
[2] If such a condition is triggered in a subshell of a test, then
'error' won't be able to abort the whole test script, but only the
subshell, which in turn causes the test to fail in the usual way,
indicating loudly and clearly that something is wrong.
[3] Well, 'error' aborts the test script the same way when run
manually or by 'make' or 'prove', but both 'make' and 'prove' pay
attention to the test script's exit status, and even a silently
aborted test script would then trigger those tools' usual
noticable error messages.
[4] Strictly speaking, not all those 'error' calls need that
redirection to send their output to the terminal, see e.g.
'test_expect_success' in the opening example, but I think it's
better to be consistent.

p3400 makes a copy of the current repository to test git-rebase
performance, and creates new branches in the copy with `git checkout
-b'. If the original repository has branches with the same name as the
script is trying to create, this operation will fail.
This replaces these calls by `git checkout -B' to force the creation and
update of these branches.

A server with bitmapped packs can serve a clone very
quickly. However, fetches are not necessarily made any
faster, because we spend a lot less time in object traversal
(which is what bitmaps help with) and more time finding
deltas (because we may have to throw out on-disk deltas if
the client does not have the base).
As a first step to making this faster, this patch introduces
a new perf script to measure fetches into a repo of various
ages from a fully-bitmapped server.
We separately measure the work done by the server (in
pack-objects) and that done by the client (in index-pack).
Furthermore, we measure the size of the resulting pack.
Breaking it down like this (instead of just doing a regular
"git fetch") lets us see how much each side benefits from
any changes. And since we know the pack size, if we estimate
the network speed, then one could calculate a complete
wall-clock time for the operation (though the script does
not do this automatically).

When bisecting a performance regression using a config file,
`./bisect_regression --config my_perf.conf` for example, the
config file can contain Codespeed configuration which would
instruct the 'aggregate.perl' script called by the 'run'
script to output results in the Codespeed format and maybe
to try to send this output to a Codespeed server.
This is unfortunate because the 'bisect_run_script' relies
on the regular output from 'aggregate.perl' to mesure
performance, so let's disable Codespeed output and sending
results to a Codespeed server.

When passing an option '--foo' that it does not recognize, the
aggregate.perl script should die with an helpful error message
like:
Unknown option: foo
./aggregate.perl [options] [--] [<dir_or_rev>...] [--] \
[<test_script>...] >
Options:
--codespeed * Format output for Codespeed
--reponame <str> * Send given reponame to codespeed
--sort-by <str> * Sort output (only "regression" \
criteria is supported)
rather than:
fatal: Needed a single revision
rev-parse --verify --foo: command returned error: 128
To implement that let's use Getopt::Long for option parsing
instead of the current manual and sloppy parsing. This should
save some code and make option parsing simpler, tighter and
safer.
This will avoid something like 'foo--sort-by=regression' to
be handled as if '--sort-by=regression' had been used, for
example.
As Getopt::Long eats '--' at the end of options, this changes
a bit the way '--' is handled as we can now have '--' both
after the options and before the scripts.

One of the most interesting thing one can be interested in when
looking at performance test results is possible performance
regressions.
This new option makes it easy to spot such possible regressions.
This new option is named '--sort-by=regression' to make it
possible and easy to add other ways to sort the results, like for
example '--sort-by=utime'.
If we would like to sort according to how much the stime regressed
we could also add a new option called '--sort-by=regression:stime'.
Then '--sort-by=regression' could become a synonym for
'--sort-by=regression:rtime'.

The GIT_PERF_REPO_NAME env variable is used in
the `aggregate.perl` script to set the 'environment'
field in the JSON Codespeed output.
Let's make it easy to set this variable by setting it
in a config file.

Let's make it possible to set in a config file the URL of
a codespeed server. And then let's make the `run` script
send the perf test results to this URL at the end of the
tests.
This should make is possible to easily automate the process
of running perf tests and having their results available in
Codespeed.

Let's make it possible to use `git config` type specifiers like
`--int` or `--bool`, so that config values are converted to the
canonical form and easier to use.
This additional argument is now the fourth argument of
get_var_from_env_or_config() instead of the fifth because we
want the default value argument to be unset if it is not
passed, and this is simpler if it is the last argument.

Codespeed (https://github.com/tobami/codespeed/) is an open source
project that can be used to track how some software performs over
time. It stores performance test results in a database and can show
nice graphs and charts on a web interface.
As it can be interesting to use Codespeed to see how Git performance
evolves over time and releases, let's implement a Codespeed output
in "perf/aggregate.perl".

As we want to implement another kind of output than
the current output for the perf test results, let's
refactor the existing code that outputs the results
in its own print_default_results() function.

Ever since 5b594f457a ("Threaded grep", 2010-01-25) the number of
threads git-grep uses under PTHREADS has been hardcoded to 8, but
there's no performance test to check whether this is an optimal
setting.
Amend the existing tests for the grep engines to support a mode where
this can be tested, e.g.:
GIT_PERF_GREP_THREADS='1 8 16' GIT_PERF_LARGE_REPO=~/g/linux ./run p782*

Test fix.
* bp/fsmonitor:
p7519: improve check for prerequisite WATCHMAN
|
|
The return code of command -v with a non-existing command is 1 in bash
and 127 in dash. Use that return code directly to allow the script to
work with dash and without watchman (e.g. on Debian).
While at it stop redirecting the output. stderr is redirected to
/dev/null by test_lazy_prereq already, and stdout can actually be
useful -- the path of the found watchman executable is sent there, but
it's shown only if the script was run with --verbose.

Replace the perl/Makefile.PL and the fallback perl/Makefile used under
NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=NoThanks with a much simpler implementation heavily
inspired by how the i18n infrastructure's build process works[1].
The reason for having the Makefile.PL in the first place is that it
was initially[2] building a perl C binding to interface with libgit,
this functionality, that was removed[3] before Git.pm ever made it to
the master branch.
We've since since started maintaining a fallback perl/Makefile, as
MakeMaker wouldn't work on some platforms[4]. That's just the tip of
the iceberg. We have the PM.stamp hack in the top-level Makefile[5] to
detect whether we need to regenerate the perl/perl.mak, which I fixed
just recently to deal with issues like the perl version changing from
under us[6].
There is absolutely no reason for why this needs to be so complex
anymore. All we're getting out of this elaborate Rube Goldberg machine
was copying perl/* to perl/blib/* as we do a string-replacement on
the *.pm files to hardcode @@LOCALEDIR@@ in the source, as well as
pod2man-ing Git.pm & friends.
So replace the whole thing with something that's pretty much a copy of
how we generate po/build/**.mo from po/*.po, just with a small sed(1)
command instead of msgfmt. As that's being done rename the files
from *.pm to *.pmc just to indicate that they're generated (see
"perldoc -f require").
While I'm at it, change the fallback for Error.pm from being something
where we'll ship our own Error.pm if one doesn't exist at build time
to one where we just use a Git::Error wrapper that'll always prefer
the system-wide Error.pm, only falling back to our own copy if it
really doesn't exist at runtime. It's now shipped as
Git::FromCPAN::Error, making it easy to add other modules to
Git::FromCPAN::* in the future if that's needed.
Functional changes:
* This will not always install into perl's idea of its global
"installsitelib". This only potentially matters for packagers that
need to expose Git.pm for non-git use, and as explained in the
INSTALL file there's a trivial workaround.
* The scripts themselves will 'use lib' the target directory, but if
INSTLIBDIR is set it overrides it. It doesn't have to be this way,
it could be set in addition to INSTLIBDIR, but my reading of [7] is
that this is the desired behavior.
* We don't build man pages for all of the perl modules as we used to,
only Git(3pm). As discussed on-list[8] that we were building
installed manpages for purely internal APIs like Git::I18N or
private-Error.pm was always a bug anyway, and all the Git::SVN::*
ones say they're internal APIs.
There are apparently external users of Git.pm, but I don't expect
there to be any of the others.
As a side-effect of these general changes the perl documentation
now only installed by install-{doc,man}, not a mere "install" as
before.

Internaly we use 0{40} as a placeholder object name to signal the
codepath that there is no such object (e.g. the fast-forward check
while "git fetch" stores a new remote-tracking ref says "we know
there is no 'old' thing pointed at by the ref, as we are creating
it anew" by passing 0{40} for the 'old' side), and expect that a
codepath to locate an in-core object to return NULL as a sign that
the object does not exist. A look-up for an object that does not
exist however is quite costly with a repository with large number
of packfiles. This access pattern has been optimized.

Replace use of strbuf_addf() with strbuf_add() when enumerating
loose objects in for_each_file_in_obj_subdir(). Since we already
check the length and hex-values of the string before consuming
the path, we can prevent extra computation by using the lower-
level method.
One consumer of for_each_file_in_obj_subdir() is the abbreviation
code. OID abbreviations use a cached list of loose objects (per
object subdirectory) to make repeated queries fast, but there is
significant cache load time when there are many loose objects.
Most repositories do not have many loose objects before repacking,
but in the GVFS case the repos can grow to have millions of loose
objects. Profiling 'git log' performance in GitForWindows on a
GVFS-enabled repo with ~2.5 million loose objects revealed 12% of
the CPU time was spent in strbuf_addf().
Add a new performance test to p4211-line-log.sh that is more
sensitive to this cache-loading. By limiting to 1000 commits, we
more closely resemble user wait time when reading history into a
pager.
For a copy of the Linux repo with two ~512 MB packfiles and ~572K
loose objects, running 'git log --oneline --parents --raw -1000'
had the following performance:
HEAD~1 HEAD
