17 years agoSet up for better tree diff optimizations
Linus Torvalds [Sun, 18 Mar 2007 22:18:30 +0000 (15:18 -0700)]
Set up for better tree diff optimizations

This is mainly just a cleanup patch, and sets up for later changes where
the tree-diff.c "interesting()" function can return more than just a
yes/no value.

In particular, it should be quite possible to say "no subsequent entries
in this tree can possibly be interesting any more", and thus allow the
callers to short-circuit the tree entirely.

In fact, changing the callers to do so is trivial, and is really all this
patch really does, because changing "interesting()" itself to say that
nothing further is going to be interesting is definitely more complicated,
considering that we may have arbitrary pathspecs.

But in cleaning up the callers, this actually fixes a potential small
performance issue in diff_tree(): if the second tree has a lot of
uninterestign crud in it, we would keep on doing the "is it interesting?"
check on the first tree for each uninteresting entry in the second one.

The answer is obviously not going to change, so that was just not helping.
The new code is clearer and simpler and avoids this issue entirely.

I also renamed "interesting()" to "tree_entry_interesting()", because I
got frustrated by the fact that

 - we actually had *another* function called "interesting()" in another
   file, and I couldn't tell from the profiles which one was the one that
   mattered more.

 - when rewriting it to return a ternary value, you can't just do

if (interesting(...))
...

   any more, but want to assign the return value to a local variable. The
   name of choice for that variable would normally be "interesting", so
   I just wanted to make the function name be more specific, and avoid
   that whole issue (even though I then didn't choose that name for either
   of the users, just to avoid confusion in the patch itself ;)

In other words, this doesn't really change anything, but I think it's a
good thing to do, and if somebody comes along and writes the logic for
"yeah, none of the pathspecs you have are interesting", we now support
that trivially.

It could easily be a meaningful optimization for things like "blame",
where there's just one pathspec, and stopping when you've seen it would
allow you to avoid about 50% of the tree traversals on average.

Not a biggie, but the reason I care was that this was the only user of

Limit the size of the new delta_base_cache

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.

Avoid unnecessary strlen() calls

This is a micro-optimization that grew out of the mailing list discussion

We used to pass regular C strings around to the low-level tree walking
routines, and while this worked fine, it meant that we needed to call
strlen() on strings that the caller always actually knew the size of
anyway.

So pass the length of the string down wih the string, and avoid
unnecessary calls to strlen(). Also, when extracting a pathname from a
tree entry, use "tree_entry_len()" instead of strlen(), since the length
of the pathname is directly calculable from the decoded tree entry itself
without having to actually do another strlen().

This shaves off another ~5-10% from some loads that are very tree

update-hook: fix incorrect use of git-describe and sed for finding previous tag

Previously git-describe would output lines of the form
 v1.1.1-gf509d56
The update hook found the dash and stripped it off using
 sed 's/-g.*//'
The remainder was then used as the previous tag name.

However, git-describe has changed format.  The output is now of the form
 v1.1.1-23-gf509d56
The above sed fragment doesn't strip the middle "-23", and so the
previous tag name used would be "v1.1.1-23".  This is incorrect.

Since the hook script was written, git-describe now gained support for
"--abbrev=0", which it uses as a special flag to tell it not to output
anything other than the nearest tag name.  This patch fixes the problem,
and prevents any future recurrence by using this new flag rather than
sed to find the previous tag.

Jim Meyering [Mon, 12 Mar 2007 12:11:29 +0000 (13:11 +0100)]
git-grep: don't use sscanf

If you use scanf or sscanf to parse integers, your code probably
accepts bogus inputs.  For example, builtin-grep (aka git-grep) uses
sscanf(scan, "%u", &num) to parse the integer argument to -A, -B, -C.
Currently, "-C 1,000" and "-C 4294967297" are both treated just like
"-C 1":

    $ git-grep -h -C 4294967297 juggle
    out and you may find it easier to switch back and forth if you
    juggle multiple lines of development simultaneously. Of
    course, you will pay the price of more disk usage to hold

The obvious fix is to use strtoul instead.  But using a bare strtoul is
too messy, at least when done properly, so I've added a wrapper function.

The new function in the patch below belongs elsewhere if it would be
useful in replacing any of the four remaining uses of sscanf.

One final note:  With this change, I get a slightly different
diagnostic depending on the context size:

  $ ./git-grep -h -C 4294967296 juggle
  fatal: 4294967296: invalid context length argument
  [Exit 128]
  $ ./git-grep -h -C 4294967295 juggle
  grep: 4294967295: invalid context length argument

  [Exit 1]

A common convention that makes it easy to identify the source
of a diagnostic is to include the program name before the first ":".
Whether that should be "git" or "git-grep" is another question.
Using "grep" or "fatal" is misleading.

Jeff King [Sun, 11 Mar 2007 02:39:17 +0000 (21:39 -0500)]
fast-import: grow tree storage more aggressively

When building up a tree for a commit, fast-import
dynamically allocates memory for the tree entries. When more
space is needed, the allocated memory is increased by a
constant amount. For very large trees, this means
re-allocating and memcpy()ing the memory O(n) times.

To compound this problem, releasing the previous tree
resource does not free the memory; it is kept in a pool
for future trees. This means that each of the O(n)
allocations will consume increasing amounts of memory,
giving O(n^2) memory consumption.
