Performance measuring framework in t/perf learned to help bisecting
performance regressions.
* cc/perf-bisect:
t/perf: add scripts to bisect performance regressions
perf/run: add --subsection option
|
|
The new bisect_regression script can be used to automatically bisect
performance regressions. It will pass the new bisect_run_script to
`git bisect run`.

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'.

9ba95ed23c (perf/run: update get_var_from_env_or_config() for

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".

The return code of command -v with a non-existing command is 1 in bash

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:

Since fetch often deals with object-ids we don't have (yet),
it's an easy mistake for it to use a function like
parse_object() that gives the correct result (e.g., NULL)
but does so very slowly (because after failing to find the
object, we re-scan the pack directory looking for new
packs).
The regular test suite won't catch this because the end
result is correct, but we would want to know about
performance regressions, too. Let's add a test to the
regression suite.
Note that this uses a synthetic repository that has a large
number of packs. That's not ideal, as it means we're not
testing what "normal" users see (in fact, some of these
problems have existed for ages without anybody noticing
simply because a rescan on a normal repository just isn't
that expensive).
So what we're really looking for here is the spike you'd
notice in a pathological case (a lot of unknown objects
coming into a repo with a lot of packs). If that's fast,
then the normal cases should be, too.
Note that the test also makes liberal use of $MODERN_GIT for
setup; some of these regressions go back a ways, and we
should be able to use it to find the problems there.

Add a test utility (test-drop-caches) that flushes all changes to disk
then drops file system cache on Windows, Linux, and OSX.
Add a perf test (p7519-fsmonitor.sh) for fsmonitor.
By default, the performance test will utilize the Watchman file system
monitor if it is installed. If Watchman is not installed, it will use a
dummy integration script that does not report any new or modified files.
The dummy script has very little overhead which provides optimistic results.
The performance test will also use the untracked cache feature if it is
available as fsmonitor uses it to speed up scanning for untracked files.
There are 4 environment variables that can be used to alter the default
behavior of the performance test:
GIT_PERF_7519_UNTRACKED_CACHE: used to configure core.untrackedCache
GIT_PERF_7519_SPLIT_INDEX: used to configure core.splitIndex
GIT_PERF_7519_FSMONITOR: used to configure core.fsmonitor
GIT_PERF_7519_DROP_CACHE: if set, the OS caches are dropped between tests
The big win for using fsmonitor is the elimination of the need to scan the
working directory looking for changed and untracked files. If the file
information is all cached in RAM, the benefits are reduced.
