2020-06-08diff.h: drop diff_tree_oid() & friends' return valueLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-16/+14
ll_diff_tree_oid() has only ever returned 0 [1], so it's return value is basically useless. It's only caller diff_tree_oid() has only ever returned the return value of ll_diff_tree_oid() as-is [2], so its return value is just as useless. Most of diff_tree_oid()'s callers simply ignore its return value, except: - diff_root_tree_oid() is a thin wrapper around diff_tree_oid() and returns with its return value, but all of diff_root_tree_oid()'s callers ignore its return value. - rev_compare_tree() and rev_same_tree_as_empty() do look at the return value in a condition, but, since the return value is always 0, the former's < 0 condition is never fulfilled, while the latter's >= 0 condition is always fulfilled. So let's drop the return value of ll_diff_tree_oid(), diff_tree_oid() and diff_root_tree_oid(), and drop those conditions from rev_compare_tree() and rev_same_tree_as_empty() as well. [1] ll_diff_tree_oid() and its ancestors have been returning only 0 ever since it was introduced as diff_tree() in 9174026cfe (Add "diff-tree" program to show which files have changed between two trees., 2005-04-09). [2] diff_tree_oid() traces back to diff-tree.c:main() in 9174026cfe as well.

2020-03-30diff: halt tree-diff early after max_changesLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+6
When computing the changed-paths bloom filters for the commit-graph, we limit the size of the filter by restricting the number of paths in the diff. Instead of computing a large diff and then ignoring the result, it is better to halt the diff computation early. Create a new "max_changes" option in struct diff_options. If non-zero, then halt the diff computation after discovering strictly more changed paths. This includes paths corresponding to trees that change. Use this max_changes option in the bloom filter calculations. This reduces the time taken to compute the filters for the Linux kernel repo from 2m50s to 2m35s. On a large internal repository with ~500 commits that perform tree-wide changes, the time reduced from 6m15s to 3m48s.

The code to walk tree objects has been taught that we may be working with object names that are not computed with SHA-1. * bc/tree-walk-oid: cache: make oidcpy always copy GIT_MAX_RAWSZ bytes tree-walk: store object_id in a separate member match-trees: use hashcpy to splice trees match-trees: compute buffer offset correctly when splicing tree-walk: copy object ID before use
2019-01-15tree-walk: store object_id in a separate memberLibravatar brian m. carlson1-3/+3
When parsing a tree, we read the object ID directly out of the tree buffer. This is normally fine, but such an object ID cannot be used with oidcpy, which copies GIT_MAX_RAWSZ bytes, because if we are using SHA-1, there may not be that many bytes to copy. Instead, store the object ID in a separate struct member. Since we can no longer efficiently compute the path length, store that information as well in struct name_entry. Ensure we only copy the object ID into the new buffer if the path length is nonzero, as some callers will pass us an empty path with no object ID following it, and we will not want to read past the end of the buffer.

2018-11-19tree-walk.c: make tree_entry_interesting() take an indexLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+2
In order to support :(attr) when matching pathspec on a tree, tree_entry_interesting() needs to take an index (because git_check_attr() needs it). This is the preparation step for it. This also makes it clearer what index we fall back to when looking up attributes during an unpack-trees operation: the source index. This also fixes revs->pruning.repo initialization that should have been done in 2abf350385 (revision.c: remove implicit dependency on the_index - 2018-09-21).

2018-08-29convert "oidcmp() != 0" to "!oideq()"Libravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
This is the flip side of the previous two patches: checking for a non-zero oidcmp() can be more strictly expressed as inequality. Like those patches, we write "!= 0" in the coccinelle transformation, which covers by isomorphism the more common: if (oidcmp(E1, E2)) As with the previous two patches, this patch can be achieved almost entirely by running "make coccicheck"; the only differences are manual line-wrap fixes to match the original code. There is one thing to note for anybody replicating this, though: coccinelle 1.0.4 seems to miss the case in builtin/tag.c, even though it's basically the same as all the others. Running with 1.0.7 does catch this, so presumably it's just a coccinelle bug that was fixed in the interim. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* jk/avoid-unbounded-alloca: tree-diff: avoid alloca for large allocations
2016-06-07tree-diff: avoid alloca for large allocationsLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+16
Commit 72441af (tree-diff: rework diff_tree() to generate diffs for multiparent cases as well, 2014-04-07) introduced the use of alloca so that the common cases of commits with 1 or 2 parents would not be adversely affected by going through the multi-parent code. However, our xalloca is not ideal when the number of parents grows very large: 1. If the requested size is too large for our stack, alloca() has no way to tell us, and we simply segfault while trying to access the memory. 2. It does not use our usual memory_limit_check() logic. I measured, and alloca is indeed buying us a very small speedup over xmalloc()/free(). So we'd want to keep something like it. This patch simply puts a conditional in place at each callsite: we use alloca for common known-small numbers of parents, and otherwise use the heap. We are technically still vulnerable to (1), but no more so than if we simply put a few dozen bytes on the stack, which we must do all the time anyway. And likewise, we technically miss a memory limit check if it is tiny, but such a limit is pointless. An alternative to this would be implement something like: struct tree *tp, tp_fallback[2]; if (nparent <= ARRAY_SIZE(tp_fallback)) tp = tp_fallback; else ALLOC_ARRAY(tp, nparent); ... if (tp != tp_fallback) free(tp); That would let us drop our xalloca() portability code entirely. But in my measurements, this seemed to perform slightly worse than the xalloca solution. Note in the example above, and in the patch below, I've used ALLOC_ARRAY() to replace the manual xmalloc(nr * sizeof(*x)). Besides being shorter, this has the bonus that one cannot accidentally overflow a size_t during that computation.

2014-04-07tree-diff: rework diff_tree() to generate diffs for multiparent cases as wellLibravatar Kirill Smelkov1-64/+440
Previously diff_tree(), which is now named ll_diff_tree_sha1(), was generating diff_filepair(s) for two trees t1 and t2, and that was usually used for a commit as t1=HEAD~, and t2=HEAD - i.e. to see changes a commit introduces. In Git, however, we have fundamentally built flexibility in that a commit can have many parents - 1 for a plain commit, 2 for a simple merge, but also more than 2 for merging several heads at once. For merges there is a so called combine-diff, which shows diff, a merge introduces by itself, omitting changes done by any parent. That works through first finding paths, that are different to all parents, and then showing generalized diff, with separate columns for +/- for each parent. The code lives in combine-diff.c . There is an impedance mismatch, however, in that a commit could generally have any number of parents, and that while diffing trees, we divide cases for 2-tree diffs and more-than-2-tree diffs. I mean there is no special casing for multiple parents commits in e.g. revision-walker . That impedance mismatch *hurts* *performance* *badly* for generating combined diffs - in "combine-diff: optimize combine_diff_path sets intersection" I've already removed some slowness from it, but from the timings provided there, it could be seen, that combined diffs still cost more than an order of magnitude more cpu time, compared to diff for usual commits, and that would only be an optimistic estimate, if we take into account that for e.g. linux.git there is only one merge for several dozens of plain commits. That slowness comes from the fact that currently, while generating combined diff, a lot of time is spent computing diff(commit,commit^2) just to only then intersect that huge diff to almost small set of files from diff(commit,commit^1). That's because at present, to compute combine-diff, for first finding paths, that "every parent touches", we use the following combine-diff property/definition: D(A,P1...Pn) = D(A,P1) ^ ... ^ D(A,Pn) (w.r.t. paths) where D(A,P1...Pn) is combined diff between commit A, and parents Pi and D(A,Pi) is usual two-tree diff Pi..A So if any of that D(A,Pi) is huge, tracting 1 n-parent combine-diff as n 1-parent diffs and intersecting results will be slow. And usually, for linux.git and other topic-based workflows, that D(A,P2) is huge, because, if merge-base of A and P2, is several dozens of merges (from A, via first parent) below, that D(A,P2) will be diffing sum of merges from several subsystems to 1 subsystem. The solution is to avoid computing n 1-parent diffs, and to find changed-to-all-parents paths via scanning A's and all Pi's trees simultaneously, at each step comparing their entries, and based on that comparison, populate paths result, and deduce we could *skip* *recursing* into subdirectories, if at least for 1 parent, sha1 of that dir tree is the same as in A. That would save us from doing significant amount of needless work. Such approach is very similar to what diff_tree() does, only there we deal with scanning only 2 trees simultaneously, and for n+1 tree, the logic is a bit more complex: D(T,P1...Pn) calculation scheme ------------------------------- D(T,P1...Pn) = D(T,P1) ^ ... ^ D(T,Pn) (regarding resulting paths set) D(T,Pj) - diff between T..Pj D(T,P1...Pn) - combined diff from T to parents P1,...,Pn We start from all trees, which are sorted, and compare their entries in lock-step: T P1 Pn - - - |t| |p1| |pn| |-| |--| ... |--| imin = argmin(p1...pn) | | | | | | |-| |--| |--| |.| |. | |. | . . . . . . at any time there could be 3 cases: 1) t < p[imin]; 2) t > p[imin]; 3) t = p[imin]. Schematic deduction of what every case means, and what to do, follows: 1) t < p[imin] -> ∀j t ∉ Pj -> "+t" ∈ D(T,Pj) -> D += "+t"; t↓ 2) t > p[imin] 2.1) ∃j: pj > p[imin] -> "-p[imin]" ∉ D(T,Pj) -> D += ø; ∀ pi=p[imin] pi↓ 2.2) ∀i pi = p[imin] -> pi ∉ T -> "-pi" ∈ D(T,Pi) -> D += "-p[imin]"; ∀i pi↓ 3) t = p[imin] 3.1) ∃j: pj > p[imin] -> "+t" ∈ D(T,Pj) -> only pi=p[imin] remains to investigate 3.2) pi = p[imin] -> investigate δ(t,pi) | | v 3.1+3.2) looking at δ(t,pi) ∀i: pi=p[imin] - if all != ø -> ⎧δ(t,pi) - if pi=p[imin] -> D += ⎨ ⎩"+t" - if pi>p[imin] in any case t↓ ∀ pi=p[imin] pi↓ ~ For comparison, here is how diff_tree() works: D(A,B) calculation scheme ------------------------- A B - - |a| |b| a < b -> a ∉ B -> D(A,B) += +a a↓ |-| |-| a > b -> b ∉ A -> D(A,B) += -b b↓ | | | | a = b -> investigate δ(a,b) a↓ b↓ |-| |-| |.| |.| . . . . ~~~~~~~~ This patch generalizes diff tree-walker to work with arbitrary number of parents as described above - i.e. now there is a resulting tree t, and some parents trees tp[i] i=[0..nparent). The generalization builds on the fact that usual diff D(A,B) is by definition the same as combined diff D(A,[B]), so if we could rework the code for common case and make it be not slower for nparent=1 case, usual diff(t1,t2) generation will not be slower, and multiparent diff tree-walker would greatly benefit generating combine-diff. What we do is as follows: 1) diff tree-walker ll_diff_tree_sha1() is internally reworked to be a paths generator (new name diff_tree_paths()), with each generated path being `struct combine_diff_path` with info for path, new sha1,mode and for every parent which sha1,mode it was in it. 2) From that info, we can still generate usual diff queue with struct diff_filepairs, via "exporting" generated combine_diff_path, if we know we run for nparent=1 case. (see emit_diff() which is now named emit_diff_first_parent_only()) 3) In order for diff_can_quit_early(), which checks DIFF_OPT_TST(opt, HAS_CHANGES)) to work, that exporting have to be happening not in bulk, but incrementally, one diff path at a time. For such consumers, there is a new callback in diff_options introduced: ->pathchange(opt, struct combine_diff_path *) which, if set to !NULL, is called for every generated path. (see new compat ll_diff_tree_sha1() wrapper around new paths generator for setup) 4) The paths generation itself, is reworked from previous ll_diff_tree_sha1() code according to "D(A,P1...Pn) calculation scheme" provided above: On the start we allocate [nparent] arrays in place what was earlier just for one parent tree. then we just generalize loops, and comparison according to the algorithm. Some notes(*): 1) alloca(), for small arrays, is used for "runs not slower for nparent=1 case than before" goal - if we change it to xmalloc()/free() the timings get ~1% worse. For alloca() we use just-introduced xalloca/xalloca_free compatibility wrappers, so it should not be a portability problem. 2) For every parent tree, we need to keep a tag, whether entry from that parent equals to entry from minimal parent. For performance reasons I'm keeping that tag in entry's mode field in unused bit - see S_IFXMIN_NEQ. Not doing so, we'd need to alloca another [nparent] array, which hurts performance. 3) For emitted paths, memory could be reused, if we know the path was processed via callback and will not be needed later. We use efficient hand-made realloc-style path_appendnew(), that saves us from ~1-1.5% of potential additional slowdown. 4) goto(s) are used in several places, as the code executes a little bit faster with lowered register pressure. Also - we should now check for FIND_COPIES_HARDER not only when two entries names are the same, and their hashes are equal, but also for a case, when a path was removed from some of all parents having it. The reason is, if we don't, that path won't be emitted at all (see "a > xi" case), and we'll just skip it, and FIND_COPIES_HARDER wants all paths - with diff or without - to be emitted, to be later analyzed for being copies sources. The new check is only necessary for nparent >1, as for nparent=1 case xmin_eqtotal always =1 =nparent, and a path is always added to diff as removal. ~~~~~~~~ Timings for # without -c, i.e. testing only nparent=1 case `git log --raw --no-abbrev --no-renames` before and after the patch are as follows: navy.git linux.git v3.10..v3.11 before 0.611s 1.889s after 0.619s 1.907s slowdown 1.3% 0.9% This timings show we did no harm to usual diff(tree1,tree2) generation. From the table we can see that we actually did ~1% slowdown, but I think I've "earned" that 1% in the previous patch ("tree-diff: reuse base str(buf) memory on sub-tree recursion", HEAD~~) so for nparent=1 case, net timings stays approximately the same. The output also stayed the same. (*) If we revert 1)-4) to more usual techniques, for nparent=1 case, we'll get ~2-2.5% of additional slowdown, which I've tried to avoid, as "do no harm for nparent=1 case" rule. For linux.git, combined diff will run an order of magnitude faster and appropriate timings will be provided in the next commit, as we'll be taking advantage of the new diff tree-walker for combined-diff generation there. P.S. and combined diff is not some exotic/for-play-only stuff - for example for a program I write to represent Git archives as readonly filesystem, there is initial scan with `git log --reverse --raw --no-abbrev --no-renames -c` to extract log of what was created/changed when, as a result building a map {} sha1 -> in which commit (and date) a content was added that `-c` means also show combined diff for merges, and without them, if a merge is non-trivial (merges changes from two parents with both having separate changes to a file), or an evil one, the map will not be full, i.e. some valid sha1 would be absent from it. That case was my initial motivation for combined diffs speedup. Signed-off-by: Kirill Smelkov <kirr@mns.spb.ru> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-03-27tree-diff: reuse base str(buf) memory on sub-tree recursionLibravatar Kirill Smelkov1-19/+19
Instead of allocating it all the time for every subtree in ll_diff_tree_sha1, let's allocate it once in diff_tree_sha1, and then all callee just use it in stacking style, without memory allocations. This should be faster, and for me this change gives the following slight speedups for git log --raw --no-abbrev --no-renames --format='%H' navy.git linux.git v3.10..v3.11 before 0.618s 1.903s after 0.611s 1.889s speedup 1.1% 0.7% Signed-off-by: Kirill Smelkov <kirr@mns.spb.ru> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-03-27tree-diff: no need to call "full" diff_tree_sha1 from show_path()Libravatar Kirill Smelkov1-2/+6
As described in previous commit, when recursing into sub-trees, we can use lower-level tree walker, since its interface is now sha1 based. The change is ok, because diff_tree_sha1() only invokes ll_diff_tree_sha1(), and also, if base is empty, try_to_follow_renames(). But base is not empty here, as we have added a path and '/' before recursing. Signed-off-by: Kirill Smelkov <kirr@mns.spb.ru> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-03-27tree-diff: rework diff_tree interface to be sha1 basedLibravatar Kirill Smelkov1-32/+28
In the next commit this will allow to reduce intermediate calls, when recursing into subtrees - at that stage we know only subtree sha1, and it is natural for tree walker to start from that phase. For now we do diff_tree show_path diff_tree_sha1 diff_tree ... and the change will allow to reduce it to diff_tree show_path diff_tree Also, it will allow to omit allocating strbuf for each subtree, and just reuse the common strbuf via playing with its len. The above-mentioned improvements go in the next 2 patches. The downside is that try_to_follow_renames(), if active, we cause re-reading of 2 initial trees, which was negligible based on my timings, and which is outweighed cogently by the upsides. NOTE To keep with the current interface and semantics, I needed to rename the function from diff_tree() to diff_tree_sha1(). As diff_tree_sha1() was already used, and the function we are talking here is its more low-level helper, let's use convention for prefixing such helpers with "ll_".

2014-03-26tree-diff: remove special-case diff-emitting code for empty-tree casesLibravatar Kirill Smelkov1-12/+14
While walking trees, we iterate their entries from lowest to highest in sort order, so empty tree means all entries were already went over. If we artificially assign +infinity value to such tree "entry", it will go after all usual entries, and through the usual driver loop we will be taking the same actions, which were hand-coded for special cases, i.e. t1 empty, t2 non-empty pathcmp(+∞, t2) -> +1 show_path(/*t1=*/NULL, t2); /* = t1 > t2 case in main loop */ t1 non-empty, t2-empty pathcmp(t1, +∞) -> -1 show_path(t1, /*t2=*/NULL); /* = t1 < t2 case in main loop */ In other words when we have t1 and t2, we return a sign that tells the caller to indicate the "earlier" one to be emitted, and by returning the sign that causes the non-empty side to be emitted, we will automatically cause the entries from the remaining side to be emitted, without attempting to touch the empty side at all. We can teach tree_entry_pathcmp() to pretend that an empty tree has an element that sorts after anything else to achieve this. Right now we never go to when compared tree descriptors are both infinity, as this condition is checked in the loop beginning as finishing criteria, but will do so in the future, when there will be several parents iterated simultaneously, and some pair of them would run to the end.

- let it do only comparison. This way the code is cleaner and more structured - cmp function only compares, and the driver takes action based on comparison result. There should be no change in performance, as effectively, we just move if series from on place into another, and merge it to was-already-there same switch/if, so the result is maybe a little bit faster.

2014-03-20tree-diff: don't assume compare_tree_entry() returns -1,0,1Libravatar Kirill Smelkov1-8/+14
It does, but we'll be reworking it in the next patch after it won't, and besides it is better to stick to standard strcmp/memcmp/base_name_compare/etc... convention, where comparison function returns <0, =0, >0 Regarding performance, comparing for <0, =0, >0 should be a little bit faster, than switch, because it is just 1 test-without-immediate instruction and then up to 3 conditional branches, and in switch you have up to 3 tests with immediate and up to 3 conditional branches. No worry, that update_tree_entry(t2) is duplicated for =0 and >0 - it will be good after we'll be adding support for multiparent walker and will stay that way. =0 case goes first, because it happens more often in real diffs - i.e. paths are the same.

2014-03-20tree-diff: consolidate code for emitting diffs and recursion in one placeLibravatar Kirill Smelkov1-30/+82
Currently both compare_tree_entry() and show_entry() invoke opt diff callbacks (opt->add_remove() and opt->change()), and also they both have code which decides whether to recurse into sub-tree, and whether to emit a tree as separate entry if DIFF_OPT_TREE_IN_RECURSIVE is set. I.e. we have code duplication and logic scattered on two places. Let's consolidate it - all diff emiting code and recurion logic moves to show_entry, which is now named as show_path, because it shows diff for a path, based on up to two tree entries, with actual diff emitting code being kept in new helper emit_diff() for clarity. What we have as the result, is that compare_tree_entry is now free from code with logic for diff generation, and also performance is not affected as timings for `git log --raw --no-abbrev --no-renames` for navy.git and `linux.git v3.10..v3.11`, just like in previous patch, stay the same.

2014-03-04tree-diff: show_tree() is not neededLibravatar Kirill Smelkov1-32/+3
We don't need special code for showing added/removed subtree, because we can do the same via diff_tree_sha1, just passing NULL for absent tree. And compared to show_tree(), which was calling show_entry() for every tree entry, that would lead to the same show_entry() callings: show_tree(t): for e in t.entries: show_entry(e) diff_tree_sha1(NULL, new): /* the same applies to (old, NULL) */ diff_tree(t1=NULL, t2) ... if (!t1->size) show_entry(t2) ... and possible overhead is negligible, since after the patch, timing for `git log --raw --no-abbrev --no-renames` for navy.git and `linux.git v3.10..v3.11` is practically the same. So let's say goodbye to show_tree() - it removes some code, but also, and what is important, consolidates more code for showing/recursing into trees into one place.
