* clean up and optimize nth_packed_object_sha1() usageNicolas Pitre2007-04-051-5/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Let's avoid the open coded pack index reference in pack-object and use nth_packed_object_sha1() instead. This will help encapsulating index format differences in one place. And while at it there is no reason to copy SHA1's over and over while a direct pointer to it in the index will do just fine. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Acked-by: Shawn O.

* Be more careful about zlib return valuesLinus Torvalds2007-03-201-4/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When creating a new object, we use "deflate(stream, Z_FINISH)" in a loop until it no longer returns Z_OK, and then we do "deflateEnd()" to finish up business. That should all work, but the fact is, it's not how you're _supposed_ to use the zlib return values properly: - deflate() should never return Z_OK in the first place, except if we need to increase the output buffer size (which we're not doing, and should never need to do, since we pre-allocated a buffer that is supposed to be able to hold the output in full). So the "while()" loop was incorrect: Z_OK doesn't actually mean "ok, continue", it means "ok, allocate more memory for me and continue"! - if we got an error return, we would consider it to be end-of-stream, but it could be some internal zlib error. In short, we should check for Z_STREAM_END explicitly, since that's the only valid return value anyway for the Z_FINISH case. - we never checked deflateEnd() return codes at all. Now, admittedly, none of these issues should ever happen, unless there is some internal bug in zlib. So this patch should make zero difference, but it seems to be the right thing to do. We should probablybe anal and check the return value of "deflateInit()" too! Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Fix loose object uncompression check.Linus Torvalds2007-03-191-2/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The thing is, if the output buffer is empty, we should *still* actually use the zlib routines to *unpack* that empty output buffer. But we had a test that said "only unpack if we still expect more output". So we wouldn't use up all the zlib stream, because we felt that we didn't need it, because we already had all the bytes we wanted. And it was "true": we did have all the output data. We just needed to also eat all the input data! We've had this bug before - thinking that we don't need to inflate() anything because we already had it all..

* Limit the size of the new delta_base_cacheShawn O. Pearce2007-03-181-4/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new configuration variable core.deltaBaseCacheLimit allows the user to control how much memory they are willing to give to Git for caching base objects of deltas. This is not normally meant to be a user tweakable knob; the "out of the box" settings are meant to be suitable for almost all workloads. We default to 16 MiB under the assumption that the cache is not meant to consume all of the user's available memory, and that the cache's main purpose was to cache trees, for faster path limiters during revision traversal. Since trees tend to be relatively small objects, this relatively small limit should still allow a large number of objects. On the other hand we don't want the cache to start storing 200 different versions of a 200 MiB blob, as this could easily blow the entire address space of a 32 bit process. We evict OBJ_BLOB from the cache first (credit goes to Junio) as we want to favor OBJ_TREE within the cache. These are the objects that have the highest inflate() startup penalty, as they tend to be small and thus don't have that much of a chance to ammortize that penalty over the entire data.

* [PATCH] clean up pack index handling a bitNicolas Pitre2007-03-161-44/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Especially with the new index format to come, it is more appropriate to encapsulate more into check_packed_git_idx() and assume less of the index format in struct packed_git. To that effect, the index_base is renamed to index_data with void * type so it is not used directly but other pointers initialized with it. This allows for a couple pointer cast removal, as well as providing a better generic name to grep for when adding support for new index versions or formats. And index_data is declared const too while at it. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* prepare_packed_git(): sort packs by age and localness.Junio C Hamano2007-03-111-0/+56
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When accessing objects, we first look for them in packs that are linked together in the reverse order of discovery. Since younger packs tend to contain more recent objects, which are more likely to be accessed often, and local packs tend to contain objects more relevant to our specific projects, sort the list of packs before starting to access them. In addition, favoring local packs over the ones borrowed from alternates can be a win when alternates are mounted on network file systems. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* | Cast 64 bit off_t to 32 bit size_tShawn O. Pearce2007-03-071-17/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some systems have sizeof(off_t) == 8 while sizeof(size_t) == 4. This implies that we are able to access and work on files whose maximum length is around 2^63-1 bytes, but we can only malloc or mmap somewhat less than 2^32-1 bytes of memory. On such a system an implicit conversion of off_t to size_t can cause the size_t to wrap, resulting in unexpected and exciting behavior. Right now we are working around all gcc warnings generated by the -Wshorten-64-to-32 option by passing the off_t through xsize_t(). In the future we should make xsize_t on such problematic platforms detect the wrapping and die if such a file is accessed. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

By using off_t, the POSIX type that is declared to mean an offset within a file, we support whatever maximum file size the underlying operating system will handle.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As we permit up to 2^32-1 objects in a single packfile we cannot use a signed int to represent the object offset within a packfile, after 2^31-1 objects we will start seeing negative indexes and error out or compute bad addresses within the mmap'd index.

Likewise we should always be treating unsigned values as unsigned values, not as signed values. Most of these are very straightforward. The only exception is the (unnecessary) xstrdup/free in builtin-branch.c for the detached head case. Since this is a user-level interactive type program and that particular code path is executed no more than once, I feel that the extra xstrdup call is well worth the easy elimination of this warning.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | First there are too many offsets there and it is getting confusing. So 'offset' is now 'curpos' to distinguish from other offsets like 'obj_offset'. Then structures like x = foo(x, &y) are now done as y = foo(&x). It looks more natural that the result y be returned directly and x be passed as reference to be updated in place. This has the effect of reducing some line length and removing a few, needing a bit less stack space, and it even reduces the compiled code size.

Maybe that is more in the "git philosophy" anyway, since content is king, but I think we should try to do the file attributes to turn it off on demand. Anyway, BY DEFAULT it is off regardless, because it requires a [core] AutoCRLF = true in your config file to be enabled. We could make that the default for Windows, of course, the same way we do some other things (filemode etc). But you can actually enable it on UNIX, and it will cause: - "git update-index" will write blobs without CRLF - "git diff" will diff working tree files without CRLF - "git checkout" will write files to the working tree _with_ CRLF and things work fine. Funnily, it actually shows an odd file in git itself: git clone -n git test-crlf cd test-crlf git config core.autocrlf true git checkout git diff shows a diff for "Documentation/docbook-xsl.css". Why? Because we have actually checked in that file *with* CRLF! So when "core.autocrlf" is true, we'll always generate a *different* hash for it in the index, because the index hash will be for the content _without_ CRLF. Is this complete? I dunno. It seems to work for me. It doesn't use the filename at all right now, and that's probably a deficiency (we could certainly make the "is_binary()" heuristics also take standard filename heuristics into account). I don't pass in the filename at all for the "index_fd()" case (git-update-index), so that would need to be passed around, but this actually works fine. NOTE NOTE NOTE! The "is_binary()" heuristics are totally made-up by yours truly. I will not guarantee that they work at all reasonable. Caveat emptor. But it _is_ simple, and it _is_ safe, since it's all off by default. The patch is pretty simple - the biggest part is the new "convert.c" file, but even that is really just basic stuff that anybody can write in "Teaching C 101" as a final project for their first class in programming. Not to say that it's bug-free, of course - but at least we're not talking about rocket surgery here.

There may be other places that need this, but this at least points out the three places that read/write working tree files for git update-index, checkout and diff respectively. That should cover a lot of it [jc: git-apply uses an entirely different codepath both for reading and writing]. Some day we can actually implement it. In the meantime, this points out a place for people to start. We *can* even start with a really simple "we do CRLF conversion automatically, regardless of filename" kind of approach, that just look at the data (all three cases have the _full_ file data already in memory) and says "ok, this is text, so let's convert to/from DOS format directly". THAT somebody can write in ten minutes, and it would already make git much nicer on a DOS/Windows platform, I suspect. And it would be totally zero-cost if you just make it a config option (but please make it dynamic with the _default_ just being 0/1 depending on whether it's UNIX/Windows, just so that UNIX people can _test_ it easily).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Matthias Lederhofer identified a race condition where a Git reader process was able to locate an object in a packed_git index, but was then preempted while a `git repack -a -d` ran and completed. By the time the reader was able to seek in the packfile to get the object data, the packfile no longer existed on disk. In this particular case the reader process did not attempt to open the packfile before it was deleted, so it did not already have the pack_fd field popuplated. With the packfile itself gone, there was no way for the reader to open it and fetch the data. I'm fixing the race condition by teaching find_pack_entry to ignore a packed_git whose packfile is not currently open and which cannot be opened. If none of the currently known packs can supply the object, we will return 0 and the caller will decide the object is not available. If this is the first attempt at finding an object, the caller will reprepare_packed_git and try again. If it was the second attempt, the caller will typically return NULL back, and an error message about a missing object will be reported. This patch does not address the situation of a reader which is being starved out by a tight sequence of `git repack -a -d` runs. In this particular case the reader will try twice, probably fail both times, and declare the object in question cannot be found. As it is highly unlikely that a real world `git repack -a -d` can complete faster than a reader can open a packfile, so I don't think this is a huge concern. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

* sha1_file.c: Avoid multiple calls to find_pack_entry().Peter Eriksen2007-01-221-10/+9
| | | | | | | | | | We used to call find_pack_entry() twice from read_sha1_file() in order to avoid printing an error message, when the object did not exist. This is fixed by moving the call to error() to the only place it really could be called. Signed-off-by: Peter Eriksen <s022018@student.dtu.dk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Document pack .idx file format upgrade strategy.Shawn O. Pearce2007-01-171-3/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Way back when Junio developed the 64 bit index topic he came up with a means of changing the .idx file format so that older Git clients would recognize that they don't understand the file and refuse to read it, while newer clients could tell the difference between the old-style and new-style .idx files. Unfortunately this wasn't recorded anywhere. This change documents how we might go about changing the .idx file format by using a special signature in the first four bytes. Credit (and possible blame) goes completely to Junio for thinking up this technique. The change also modifies the error message of the current Git code so that users get a recommendation to upgrade their Git software should this version or later encounter a new-style .idx which it cannot process. We already do this for the .pack files, but since we usually process the .idx files first its important that these files are recognized and encourage an upgrade. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

* Clean up write_in_full() usersLinus Torvalds2007-01-111-8/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the new-and-improved write_in_full() semantics, where a partial write simply always returns a real error (and always sets 'errno' when that happens, including for the disk full case), a lot of the callers of write_in_full() were just unnecessarily complex. In particular, there's no reason to ever check for a zero length or return: if the length was zero, we'll return zero, otherwise, if a disk full resulted in the actual write() system call returning zero the write_in_full() logic would have correctly turned that into a negative return value, with 'errno' set to ENOSPC. I really wish every "write_in_full()" user would just check against "<0" now, but this fixes the nasty and stupid ones.
