index-pack: fix race condition with duplicate basesJeff King Fri, 29 Aug 2014 20:57:47 +0000 (16:57 -0400)

index-pack: fix race condition with duplicate bases

When we are resolving deltas in an indexed pack, we do it by
first selecting a potential base (either one stored in full
in the pack, or one created by resolving another delta), and
then resolving any deltas that use that base. When we
resolve a particular delta, we flip its "real_type" field
from OBJ_{REF,OFS}_DELTA to whatever the real type is.

We assume that traversing the objects this way will visit
each delta only once. This is correct for most packs; we
visit the delta only when we process its base, and each
object (and thus each base) appears only once. However, if a
base object appears multiple times in the pack, we will try
to resolve any deltas based on it once for each instance.

We can detect this case by noting that a delta we are about
to resolve has already had its real_type field flipped, and
we already do so with an assert(). However, if multiple
threads are in use, we may race with another thread on
comparing and flipping the field. We need to synchronize the
access.

The right mechanism for doing this is a compare-and-swap (we
atomically "claim" the delta for our own and find out
whether our claim was successful). We can implement this
in C by using a pthread mutex to protect the operation. This
is not the fastest way of doing a compare-and-swap; many
processors provide instructions for this, and gcc and other
compilers provide builtins to access them. However, some
experiments showed that lock contention does not cause a
significant slowdown here. Adding c-a-s support for many
compilers would increase the maintenance burden (and we
would still end up including the pthread version as a
fallback).

Note that we only need to touch the OBJ_REF_DELTA codepath
here. An OBJ_OFS_DELTA object points to its base using an
offset, and therefore has only one base, even if another
copy of that base object appears in the pack (we do still
touch it briefly because the setting of real_type is
factored out of resolve_data).

send-pack: take refspecs over stdinJeff King Thu, 21 Aug 2014 12:21:20 +0000 (08:21 -0400)

send-pack: take refspecs over stdin

Pushing a large number of refs works over most transports,
because we implement send-pack as an internal function.
However, it can sometimes fail when pushing over http,
because we have to spawn "git send-pack --stateless-rpc" to
do the heavy lifting, and we pass each refspec on the
command line. This can cause us to overflow the OS limits on
the size of the command line for a large push.

We can solve this by giving send-pack a --stdin option and
using it from remote-curl. We already dealt with this on
the fetch-pack side in 078b895 (fetch-pack: new --stdin
option to read refs from stdin, 2012-04-02). The stdin
option (and in particular, its use of packet-lines for
stateless-rpc input) is modeled after that solution.

git-prompt: do not look for refs/stash in $GIT_DIR

That commit claims that packed-refs does not pack
refs/stash, but that is not quite true. It does pack the
ref, but due to a bug, fails to prune the ref. When we fix
that bug, we would want to be doing the right thing here.

fast-import: clean up pack_data pointer in end_packfile

We have a global pointer pack_data pointing to the current
pack we have open. Inside end_packfile we have two new
pointers, old_p and new_p. The latter points to pack_data,
and the former points to the new "installed" version of the
packfile we get when we hand the file off to the regular
sha1_file machinery. When then free old_p.

Presumably the extra old_p pointer was there so that we
could overwrite pack_data with new_p and still free old_p,
but we don't do that. We just leave pack_data pointing to
bogus memory, and don't overwrite it until we call
start_packfile again (if ever).

This can cause problems for our die routine, which calls
end_packfile to clean things up. If we die at the wrong
moment, we can end up looking at invalid memory in
pack_data left after the last end_packfile().

Instead, let's make sure we set pack_data to NULL after we
free it, and make calling endfile() again with a NULL
pack_data a noop (there is nothing to end).

We can further make things less confusing by dropping old_p
entirely, and moving new_p closer to its point of use.

pack-refs: prune top-level refs like "refs/foo"Jeff King Sat, 23 Aug 2014 05:27:07 +0000 (01:27 -0400)

pack-refs: prune top-level refs like "refs/foo"

After we have packed all refs, we prune any loose refs that
correspond to what we packed. We do so by first taking a
lock with lock_ref_sha1, and then deleting the loose ref
file.

However, lock_ref_sha1 will refuse to take a lock on any
refs that exist at the top-level of the "refs/" directory,
and we skip pruning the ref. This is almost certainly not
what we want to happen here. The criteria to be pruned
should not differ from that to be packed; if a ref makes it
to prune_ref, it's because we want it both packed and
pruned (if there are refs you do not want to be packed, they
should be omitted much earlier by pack_ref_is_possible,
which we do in this case if --all is not given).

We can fix this by switching to lock_any_ref_for_update.
This behaves exactly the same with the exception of this
top-level check.

intersect_paths: respect mode in git's tree-sortJeff King Wed, 20 Aug 2014 02:14:30 +0000 (22:14 -0400)

intersect_paths: respect mode in git's tree-sort

When we do a combined diff, we individually diff against
each parent, and then use intersect_paths to do a parallel
walk through the sorted results and come up with a final
list of interesting paths.

The sort order here is that returned by the diffs, which
means it is in git's tree-order which sorts sub-trees as if
their paths have "/" at the end. When we do our parallel
walk, we need to use a comparison function which provides
the same order.

Since 8518ff8 (combine-diff: optimize combine_diff_path sets
intersection, 2014-01-20), we use a simple strcmp to
compare the pathnames, and get this wrong. It's somewhat
hard to trigger because normally a diff does not produce
tree entries at all, and therefore the sort order is the
same as a strcmp. However, if the "-t" option is used with
the diff, then we will produce diff_filepairs for both trees
and files.

We can use base_name_compare to do the comparison, just as
the tree-diff code does. Even though what we have are not
technically base names (they are full paths within the
tree), the end result is the same (we do not care about
interior slashes at all, only about the final character).

However, since we do not have the length of each path
stored, we take a slight shortcut: if neither of the entries
is a sub-tree then the comparison is equivalent to a strcmp.
This lets us skip the extra strlen calls in the common case
without having to reimplement base_name_compare from
scratch.

Makefile: make perf tests optional for profile build

The perf tests need a repository to operate on; if none is
defined, we fall back to the repository containing our build
directory. That fails, though, for an exported tarball of
git.git, which has no repository.

Since 5d7fd6d we run the perf tests as part of "make
profile". Therefore "make profile" fails out of the box on
released tarballs of v2.1.0.

We can fix this by making the perf tests optional; if they
are skipped, we still run the regular test suite, which
should give a lot of profile data (and is what we used to do
prior to 5d7fd6d anyway).

! test_i18ngrep foo bar

because the test case would fail under GETTEXT_POISON. The function offers
a special syntax to test that a pattern is *not* found:

test_i18ngrep ! foo bar

unpack-trees: use 'cuddled' style for if-else cascadeJonathan Nieder Wed, 13 Aug 2014 00:00:45 +0000 (17:00 -0700)

unpack-trees: use 'cuddled' style for if-else cascade

Match the predominant style in git by following K&R style for if/else
cascades. Documentation/CodingStyle from linux.git explains:

Note that the closing brace is empty on a line of its own, _except_ in
the cases where it is followed by a continuation of the same statement,
ie a "while" in a do-statement or an "else" in an if-statement, like
this:

if (x == y) {
..
} else if (x > y) {
...
} else {
....
}

Rationale: K&R.

Also, note that this brace-placement also minimizes the number of empty
(or almost empty) lines, without any loss of readability.

unpack-trees: simplify 'all other failures' caseStefan Beller Tue, 12 Aug 2014 23:59:31 +0000 (16:59 -0700)

unpack-trees: simplify 'all other failures' case

In the 'if (current)' block of twoway_merge, we handle the boring
errors by checking if the entry from the old tree, current index, and
new tree are present, to get a pathname for the error message from one
of them:

if (oldtree)
return o->gently ? -1 : reject_merge(oldtree, o);
if (current)
return o->gently ? -1 : reject_merge(current, o);
if (newtree)
return o->gently ? -1 : reject_merge(newtree, o);
return -1;

Since this is guarded by 'if (current)', the second test is guaranteed
to succeed. Moreover, any of the three entries, if present, would
have the same path because there is no rename detection in this code
path. Even if some day in the future the entries' paths differ, the
'current' path used in the index and worktree would presumably be the
most recognizable for the end user.

Simplify by just using 'current'.

pack-objects: turn off bitmaps when we see --shallow... Jeff King Tue, 12 Aug 2014 04:34:53 +0000 (00:34 -0400)

pack-objects: turn off bitmaps when we see --shallow lines

Reachability bitmaps do not work with shallow operations,
because they cache a view of the object reachability that
represents the true objects. Whereas a shallow repository
(or a shallow operation in a repository) is inherently
cutting off the object graph with a graft.

We explicitly disallow the use of bitmaps in shallow
repositories by checking is_repository_shallow(), and we
should continue to do that. However, we also want to
disallow bitmaps when we are serving a fetch to a shallow
client, since we momentarily take on their grafted view of
the world.

It used to be enough to call is_repository_shallow at the
start of pack-objects. Upload-pack wrote the other side's
shallow state to a temporary file and pointed the whole
pack-objects process at this state with "git --shallow-file",
and from the perspective of pack-objects, we really were
in a shallow repo. But since b790e0f (upload-pack: send
shallow info over stdin to pack-objects, 2014-03-11), we do
it differently: we send --shallow lines to pack-objects over
stdin, and it registers them itself.

This means that our is_repository_shallow check is way too
early (we have not been told about the shallowness yet), and
that it is insufficient (calling is_repository_shallow is
not enough, as the shallow grafts we register do not change
its return value). Instead, we can just turn off bitmaps
explicitly when we see these lines.

apply: omit ws check for excluded paths

Whitespace breakages are checked while the patch is being parsed.
Disable them at the beginning of parse_chunk(), where each
individual patch is parsed, immediately after we learn the name of
the file the patch applies to and before we start parsing the diff
contained in the patch.

One may naively think that we should be able to not just skip the
whitespace checks but simply fast-forward to the next patch without
doing anything once use_patch() tells us that this patch is not
going to be used. But in reality we cannot really skip much of the
parsing in order to do such a "fast-forward", primarily because
parsing "@@ -k,l +m,n @@" lines and counting the input lines is how
we determine the boundaries of individual patches.

apply: use the right attribute for paths in non-Git patches

We parse each patchfile and find the name of the path the patch
applies to, and then use that name to consult the attribute system
to find the whitespace rules to be used, and also the target file
(either in the working tree or in the index) to replay the changes
against.

Unlike a Git-generated patch, a non-Git patch is taken to have the
pathnames relative to the current working directory. The names
found in such a patch are modified by prepending the prefix by the
prefix_patches() helper function introduced in 56185f49 (git-apply:
require -p<n> when working in a subdirectory., 2007-02-19).

However, this prefixing is done after the patch is fully parsed and
affects only what target files are patched. Because the attributes
are checked against the names found in the patch during the parsing,
not against the final pathname, the whitespace check that is done
during parsing ends up using attributes for a wrong path for non-Git
patches.

Fix this by doing the prefix much earlier, immediately after the
header part of each patch is parsed and we learn the name of the
path the patch affects.

pretty: make empty userformats truly empty

If the user provides an empty format with "--format=", we
end up putting in extra whitespace that the user cannot
prevent. This comes from two places:

1. If the format is missing a terminating newline, we add
one automatically. This makes sense for --format=%h, but
not for a truly empty format.

2. We add an extra newline between the pretty-printed
format and a diff or diffstat. If the format is empty,
there's no point in doing so if there's nothing to
separate.

With this patch, one can get a diff with no other cruft out
of "diff-tree --format= $commit".

Until now, we treated "--pretty=" or "--format=" as "give me

but only what happened to work due to our parsing of

Let's instead let these be an actual empty userformat.
Otherwise one must write out the annoyingly long
"--pretty=tformat:" to get the same behavior.

revision: drop useless string offset when parsing "--pretty"

Once upon a time, we parsed pretty options by looking for
"--pretty" at the start of the string, and then feeding the
rest (including an "=") to get_commit_format. Later, commit
48ded91 (log --pretty: do not accept bogus "--prettyshort",
2008-05-25) split this into a separate check for "--pretty"
versus "--pretty=".

However, when parsing "--pretty", we still passed "arg+8" to
get_commit_format. This is useless, since it will always
point to the NUL terminator at the end of the string. We can
simply pass NULL instead; both parameters are treated the
same by get_commit_format.
