* common progress display supportNicolas Pitre2007-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of having this code duplicated in multiple places, let's have a common interface for progress display. If someday someone wishes to display a cheezy progress bar instead then only one file will have to be changed. Note: I left merge-recursive.c out since it has a strange notion of progress as it apparently increase the expected total number as it goes. Someone with more intimate knowledge of what that is supposed to mean might look at converting it to the common progress interface.

* pack-objects: better check_object() performancesNicolas Pitre2007-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With large amount of objects, check_object() is really trashing the pack sliding map and the filesystem cache. It has a completely random access pattern especially with old objects where delta replay jumps back and forth all over the pack. This patch improves things by: 1) sorting objects by their offset in pack before calling check_object() so the pack access pattern is linear; 2) recording the object type at add_object_entry() time since it is already known in most cases; 3) recording the pack offset even for preferred_base objects; 4) avoid calling sha1_object_info() if all possible. This limits pack accesses to the bare minimum and makes them perfectly linear. In the process check_object() was made more clear (to me at least). Note: I thought about walking the sorted_by_offset list backward in get_object_details() so if a pack happens to be larger than the available file cache, then the cache would have been populated with useful data from the beginning of the pack already when find_deltas() is called. Strangely, testing (on Linux) showed absolutely no performance difference. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* pack-objects: make in_pack_header_size a variable of its ownNicolas Pitre2007-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It currently aliases delta_size on the principle that reused deltas won't go through the whole delta matching loop hence delta_size was unused. This is not true if given delta doesn't find its base in the pack though. But we need that information even for whole object data reuse. Well in short the current state looks awful and is prone to bugs. It just works fine now because try_delta() tests trg_entry->delta before using trg_entry->delta_size, but that is a bit subtle and I was wondering for a while why things just worked fine... even if I'm guilty of having introduced this abomination myself in the first place. Let's do the sensible thing instead with no ambiguity, which is to have a separate variable for in_pack_header_size. This might even help future optimizations. While at it, let's reorder some struct object_entry members so they all align well with their own width, regardless of the architecture or the size of off_t. Some memory saving is to be expected with this alone. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* pack-objects: get rid of create_final_object_list()Nicolas Pitre2007-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because we don't have to know the SHA1 h(hence the name) of the pack up front anymore, let's get rid of yet another global sorted object list and sort them only in write_index_file(), then compute the object list SHA1 on the fly. This has the advantage of saving another chunk of memory, and the sorted list SHA1 won't be computed needlessly on servers during a fetch. Of course the cunning plan is also to make write_index_file() much like the function with the same name in index-pack.c for an eventual easy sharing.

* pack-objects: get rid of reuse_cached_packNicolas Pitre2007-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This capability is practically never useful, and therefore never tested, because it is fairly unlikely that the requested pack will be already available. Furthermore it is of little gain over the ability to reuse existing pack data. In fact the ability to change delta type on the fly when reusing delta data is a nice thing that has almost no cost and allows greater backward compatibility with a client's capabilities than if the client is blindly sent a whole pack without any discrimination. And this "feature" is simply in the way of other cleanups. Let's get rid of it. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* pack-objects: rework check_delta_limit usageNicolas Pitre2007-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Objects that have delta "children" from pack data reuse must consider the depth of their deepest child when they try to deltify themselves for those children not to become too deep. However, in the context of a "thin" pack, the delta children depth was skipped entirely on the presumption that the pack was always going to be exploded on the receiving end, hence the delta length wasn't an issue. Now that we keep received packs as is and reuse pack data when repacking, those packs do contain delta chains that are longer than expected. Worse, those delta chain may even grow longer when the pack is further repacked into another thin pack for a subsequent transmission. So this patch restores strict delta length even for thin packs, and it moves check_delta_limit() usage directly in the delta loop where it is needed. This way the delta_limit can be removed from struct object_entry as well. Oh and the initial value was wrong too. The progress_interval() function was moved to a more logical location in the process.

* pack-objects: equal objects in size should delta against newer objectsNicolas Pitre2007-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Before finding best delta combinations, we sort objects by name hash, then by size, then by their position in memory.

* pack-objects: learn about pack index version 2Nicolas Pitre2007-04-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pack index version 2 goes as follows: - 8 bytes of header with signature and version. - 256 entries of 4-byte first-level fan-out table. - Table of sorted 20-byte SHA1 records for each object in pack. - Table of 4-byte CRC32 entries for raw pack object data. - Table of 4-byte offset entries for objects in the pack if offset is representable with 31 bits or less, otherwise it is an index in the next table with top bit set. - Table of 8-byte offset entries indexed from previous table for offsets which are 32 bits or more (optional). - 20-byte SHA1 checksum of sorted object names. - 20-byte SHA1 checksum of the above. The object SHA1 table is all contiguous so future pack format that would contain this table directly won't require big changes to the code. It is also tighter for slightly better cache locality when looking up entries. Support for large packs exceeding 31 bits in size won't impose an index size bloat for packs within that range that don't need a 64-bit offset. And because newer objects which are likely to be the most frequently used are located at the beginning of the pack, they won't pay the 64-bit offset lookup at run time either even if the pack is large. Right now an index version 2 is created only when the biggest offset in a pack reaches 31 bits. It might be a good idea to always use index version 2 eventually to benefit from the CRC32 it contains when reusing pack data while repacking.

* compute a CRC32 for each object as stored in a packNicolas Pitre2007-04-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The most important optimization for performance when repacking is the ability to reuse data from a previous pack as is and bypass any delta or even SHA1 computation by simply copying the raw data from one pack to another directly. The problem with this is that any data corruption within a copied object would go unnoticed and the new (repacked) pack would be self-consistent with its own checksum despite containing a corrupted object. This is a real issue that already happened at least once in the past. In some attempt to prevent this, we validate the copied data by inflating it and making sure no error is signaled by zlib. But this is still not perfect as a significant portion of a pack content is made of object headers and references to delta base objects which are not deflated and therefore not validated when repacking actually making the pack data reuse still not as safe as it could be. Of course a full SHA1 validation could be performed, but that implies full data inflating and delta replaying which is extremely costly, which cost the data reuse optimization was designed to avoid in the first place. So the best solution to this is simply to store a CRC32 of the raw pack data for each object in the pack index. This way any object in a pack can be validated before being copied as is in another pack, including header and any other non deflated data. Why CRC32 instead of a faster checksum like Adler32? Quoting Wikipedia: Jonathan Stone discovered in 2001 that Adler-32 has a weakness for very short messages. He wrote "Briefly, the problem is that, for very short packets, Adler32 is guaranteed to give poor coverage of the available bits. Don't take my word for it, ask Mark Adler. :-)" The problem is that sum A does not wrap for short messages. The maximum value of A for a 128-byte message is 32640, which is below the value 65521 used by the modulo operation. An extended explanation can be found in RFC 3309, which mandates the use of CRC32 instead of Adler-32 for SCTP, the Stream Control Transmission Protocol. In the context of a GIT pack, we have lots of small objects, especially deltas, which are likely to be quite small and in a size range for which Adler32 is dimed not to be sufficient. Another advantage of CRC32 is the possibility for recovery from certain types of small corruptions like single bit errors which are the most probable type of corruptions. OK what this patch does is to compute the CRC32 of each object written to a pack within pack-objects. It is not written to the index yet and it is obviously not validated when reusing pack data yet either. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Fix random segfaults in pack-objects.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Junio noticed that 'non-trivial' pushes were failing if executed using the sliding window mmap changes. This was somewhat difficult to track down as the failure was appearing randomly. It turns out this was a failure caused by the delta base reference (either ref or offset format) spanning over the end of a mmap window. The error in pack-objects was we were not recalling use_pack after the object header was unpacked, and therefore we did not get the promise of at least 20 bytes in the buffer for the delta base parsing. This would case later memcmp() calls to walk into unassigned address space at the end of the window. The reason Junio and I had hard time tracking this down in current Git repositories is we were both probably packing with offset deltas, which minimized the odds of the delta base reference spanning over the end of the mmap window. Stepping back and repacking with version 1.3.3 (which only supported reference deltas) increased the likelyhood of seeing the bug. The correct technique (as used in sha1_file.c) is to invoke use_pack() after unpack_object_header_gently to ensure we have enough data available for the delta base decoding. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

* Loop over pack_windows when inflating/accessing data.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When multiple mmaps start getting used for all pack file access it is not possible to get all data associated with a specific object in one contiguous memory region. This limitation prevents simply passing a single address and length to SHA1_Update or to inflate. Instead we need to loop until we have processed all data of interest. As we loop over the data we are always interested in reusing the same window 'cursor', as the prior window will no longer be of any use to us. This allows the use_pack() call to automatically decrement the use count of the prior window before setting up access for us to the next window. Within each loop we need to make use of the available length output parameter of use_pack() to tell us how many bytes are available in the current memory region, as we cannot tell otherwise.

* Replace use_packed_git with window cursors.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Part of the implementation concept of the sliding mmap window for pack access is to permit multiple windows per pack to be mapped independently. Since the inuse_cnt is associated with the mmap and not with the file, this value is in struct pack_window and needs to be incremented/decremented for each pack_window accessed by any code. To faciliate that implementation we need to replace all uses of use_packed_git() and unuse_packed_git() with a different API that follows struct pack_window objects rather than struct packed_git. The way this works is when we need to start accessing a pack for the first time we should setup a new window 'cursor' by declaring a local and setting it to NULL: struct pack_windows *w_curs = NULL; To obtain the memory region which contains a specific section of the pack file we invoke use_pack(), supplying the address of our current window cursor: unsigned int len; unsigned char *addr = use_pack(p, &w_curs, offset, &len); the returned address `addr` will be the first byte at `offset` within the pack file. The optional variable len will also be updated with the number of bytes remaining following the address. Multiple calls to use_pack() with the same window cursor will update the window cursor, moving it from one window to another when necessary. In this way each window cursor variable maintains only one struct pack_window inuse at a time. Finally before exiting the scope which originally declared the window cursor we must invoke unuse_pack() to unuse the current window (which may be different from the one that was first obtained from use_pack): unuse_pack(&w_curs); This implementation is still not complete with regards to multiple windows, as only one window per pack file is supported right now.

* Refactor packed_git to prepare for sliding mmap windows.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The idea behind the sliding mmap window pack reader implementation is to have multiple mmap regions active against the same pack file, thereby allowing the process to mmap in only the active/hot sections of the pack and reduce overall virtual address space usage. To implement this we need to refactor the mmap related data (pack_base, pack_use_cnt) out of struct packed_git and move them into a new struct pack_window. We are refactoring the code to support a single struct pack_window per packfile, thereby emulating the prior behavior of mmap'ing the entire pack file. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

* Teach git-repack to preserve objects referred to by reflog entries.Junio C Hamano2006-12-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a new option --reflog to pack-objects and revision machinery; do not bother documenting it for now, since this is only useful for local repacking. When the option is passed, objects reachable from reflog entries are marked as interesting while computing the set of objects to pack. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* simplify inclusion of system header files.Junio C Hamano2006-12-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a mechanical clean-up of the way *.c files include system header files. (1) sources under compat/, platform sha-1 implementations, and xdelta code are exempt from the following rules; (2) the first #include must be "git-compat-util.h" or one of our own header file that includes it first (e.g. config.h, builtin.h, pkt-line.h); (3) system headers that are included in "git-compat-util.h" need not be included in individual C source files. (4) "git-compat-util.h" does not have to include subsystem specific header files (e.g. expat.h). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* pack-objects: remove redundent status informationNicolas Pitre2006-11-29
| | | | | | | | | | | The final 'nr_result' and 'written' values must always be the same otherwise we're in deep trouble. So let's remove a redundent report. And for paranoia sake let's make sure those two variables are actually equal after all objects are written (one never knows).

* pack-objects: tweak "do not even attempt delta" heuristicsJunio C Hamano2006-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | The heuristics to give up deltification when both the source and the target are both in the same pack affects negatively when we are repacking the subset of objects in the existing pack. This caused any incremental updates to use suboptimal packs. Tweak the heuristics to avoid this problem. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* git-pack-objects progress flag documentation and cleanupNicolas Pitre2006-11-07
| | | | | | | | This adds documentation for --progress and --all-progress, remove a duplicate --progress handling and make usage string more readable. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* make git-push a bit more verboseNicolas Pitre2006-11-01
| | | | | | | | | | Currently git-push displays progress status for the local packing of objects to send, but nothing once it starts to push it over the connection. Having progress status in that later case is especially nice when pushing lots of objects over a slow network link.
