Since the "flags" is shared, it's a good idea to keep track of who uses what bit. When we need to use more flags in library code, we can be sure it won't be re-used for another purpose by some caller.

2017-11-22list-objects: filter objects in traverse_commit_listJeff Hostetler
Create traverse_commit_list_filtered() and add filtering interface to allow certain objects to be omitted from the traversal. Update traverse_commit_list() to be a wrapper for the above with a null filter to minimize the number of callers that needed to be changed. Object filtering will be used in a future commit by rev-list and pack-objects for partial clone and fetch to omit unwanted objects from the result. traverse_bitmap_commit_list() does not work with filtering. If a packfile bitmap is present, it will not be used. It should be possible to extend such support in the future (at least to simple filters that do not require object pathnames), but that is beyond the scope of this patch series.

2017-09-24object_array: add and use `object_array_pop()`Martin Ågren
In a couple of places, we pop objects off an object array `foo` by decreasing `foo.nr`. We access `foo.nr` in many places, but most if not all other times we do so read-only, e.g., as we iterate over the array. But when we change `foo.nr` behind the array's back, it feels a bit nasty and looks like it might leak memory. Leaks happen if the popped element has an allocated `name` or `path`. At the moment, that is not the case. Still, 1) the object array might gain more fields that want to be freed, 2) a code path where we pop might start using names or paths, 3) one of these code paths might be copied to somewhere where we do, and 4) using a dedicated function for popping is conceptually cleaner. Introduce and use `object_array_pop()` instead. Release memory in the new function. Document that popping an object leaves the associated elements in limbo. The converted places were identified by grepping for "\.nr\>" and looking for "--". Make the new function return NULL on an empty array. This is consistent with `pop_commit()` and allows the following: while ((o = object_array_pop(&foo)) != NULL) { // do something } But as noted above, we don't need to go out of our way to avoid reading `foo.nr`. This is probably more readable: while (foo.nr) { ... o = object_array_pop(&foo); // do something } The name of `object_array_pop()` does not quite align with `add_object_array()`. That is unfortunate. On the other hand, it matches `object_array_clear()`. Arguably it's `add_...` that is the odd one out, since it reads like it's used to "add" an "object array". For that reason, side with `object_array_clear()`. Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2017-02-08fetch-pack: cache results of for_each_alternate_refJeff King
We may run for_each_alternate_ref() twice, once in find_common() and once in everything_local(). This operation can be expensive, because it involves running a sub-process which must freshly load all of the alternate's refs from disk. Let's cache and reuse the results between the two calls. We can make some optimizations based on the particular use pattern in fetch-pack to keep our memory usage down. The first is that we only care about the sha1s, not the refs themselves. So it's OK to store only the sha1s, and to suppress duplicates. The natural fit would therefore be a sha1_array. However, sha1_array's de-duplication happens only after it has read and sorted all entries. It still stores each duplicate. For an alternate with a large number of refs pointing to the same commits, this is a needless expense. Instead, we'd prefer to eliminate duplicates before putting them in the cache, which implies using a hash. We can further note that fetch-pack will call parse_object() on each alternate sha1. We can therefore keep our cache as a set of pointers to "struct object". That gives us a place to put our "already seen" bit with an optimized hash lookup. And as a bonus, the object stores the sha1 for us, so pointer-to-object is all we need. There are two extra optimizations I didn't do here: - we actually store an array of pointer-to-object. Technically we could just walk the obj_hash table looking for entries with the ALTERNATE flag set (because our use case doesn't care about the order here). But that hash table may be mostly composed of non-ALTERNATE entries, so we'd waste time walking over them. So it would be a slight win in memory use, but a loss in CPU. - the items we pull out of the cache are actual "struct object"s, but then we feed "obj->sha1" to our sub-functions, which promptly call parse_object(). This second parse is cheap, because it starts with lookup_object() and will bail immediately when it sees we've already parsed the object. We could save the extra hash lookup, but it would involve refactoring the functions we call. It may or may not be worth the trouble.

2014-10-16make add_object_array_with_context interface more saneJeff King
When you resolve a sha1, you can optionally keep any context found during the resolution, including the path and mode of a tree entry (e.g., when looking up "HEAD:subdir/file.c"). The add_object_array_with_context function lets you then attach that context to an entry in a list. Unfortunately, the interface for doing so is horrible. The object_context structure is large and most object_array users do not use it. Therefore we keep a pointer to the structure to avoid burdening other users too much. But that means when we do use it that we must allocate the struct ourselves. And the struct contains a fixed PATH_MAX-sized buffer, which makes this wholly unsuitable for any large arrays. We can observe that there is only a single user of the "with_context" variant: builtin/grep.c. And in that use case, the only element we care about is the path. We can therefore store only the path as a pointer (the context's mode field was redundant with the object_array_entry itself, and nobody actually cared about the surrounding tree). This still requires a strdup of the pathname, but at least we are only consuming the minimum amount of memory for each string. We can also handle the copying ourselves in add_object_array_*, and free it as appropriate in object_array_release_entry.

2014-10-16object_array: add a "clear" functionJeff King

Let's provide a helper to make this easier to handle.

2014-07-14add object_as_type helper for casting objectsJeff King
When we call lookup_commit, lookup_tree, etc, the logic goes something like: 1. Look for an existing object struct. If we don't have one, allocate and return a new one. 2. Double check that any object we have is the expected type (and complain and return NULL otherwise). 3. Convert an object with type OBJ_NONE (from a prior call to lookup_unknown_object) to the expected type. We can encapsulate steps 2 and 3 in a helper function which checks whether we have the expected object type, converts OBJ_NONE as appropriate, and returns the object. Not only does this shorten the code, but it also provides one central location for converting OBJ_NONE objects into objects of other types. Future patches will use that to enforce type-specific invariants. Since this is a refactoring, we would want it to behave exactly as the current code. It takes a little reasoning to see that this is the case: - for lookup_{commit,tree,etc} functions, we are just pulling steps 2 and 3 into a function that does the same thing. - for the call in peel_object, we currently only do step 3 (but we want to consolidate it with the others, as mentioned above). However, step 2 is a noop here, as the surrounding conditional makes sure we have OBJ_NONE (which we want to keep to avoid an extraneous call to sha1_object_info). - for the call in lookup_commit_reference_gently, we are currently doing step 2 but not step 3. However, step 3 is a noop here. The object we got will have just come from deref_tag, which must have figured out the type for each object in order to know when to stop peeling. Therefore the type will never be OBJ_NONE. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-07-14move setting of object->type to alloc_* functionsJeff King
The "struct object" type implements basic object polymorphism. Individual instances are allocated as concrete types (or as a union type that can store any object), and a "struct object *" can be cast into its real type after examining its "type" enum. This means it is dangerous to have a type field that does not match the allocation (e.g., setting the type field of a "struct blob" to "OBJ_COMMIT" would mean that a reader might read past the allocated memory). In most of the current code this is not a problem; the first thing we do after allocating an object is usually to set its type field by passing it to create_object. However, the virtual commits we create in merge-recursive.c do not ever get their type set. This does not seem to have caused problems in practice, though (presumably because we always pass around a "struct commit" pointer and never even look at the type). We can fix this oversight and also make it harder for future code to get it wrong by setting the type directly in the object allocation functions. This will also make it easier to fix problems with commit index allocation, as we know that any object allocated by alloc_commit_node will meet the invariant that an object with an OBJ_COMMIT type field will have a unique index number.

2013-06-02object_array_entry: fix memory handling of the name fieldMichael Haggerty
Previously, the memory management of the object_array_entry::name field was inconsistent and undocumented. object_array_entries are ultimately created by a single function, add_object_array_with_mode(), which has an argument "const char *name". This function used to simply set the name field to reference the string pointed to by the name parameter, and nobody on the object_array side ever freed the memory. Thus, it assumed that the memory for the name field would be managed by the caller, and that the lifetime of that string would be at least as long as the lifetime of the object_array_entry. But callers were inconsistent: * Some passed pointers to constant strings or argv entries, which was OK. * Some passed pointers to newly-allocated memory, but didn't arrange for the memory ever to be freed. * Some passed the return value of sha1_to_hex(), which is a pointer to a statically-allocated buffer that can be overwritten at any time. * Some passed pointers to refnames that they received from a for_each_ref()-type iteration, but the lifetimes of such refnames is not guaranteed by the refs API. Bring consistency to this mess by changing object_array to make its own copy for the object_array_entry::name field and free this memory when an object_array_entry is deleted from the array. Many callers were passing the empty string as the name parameter, so as a performance optimization, treat the empty string specially. Instead of making a copy, store a pointer to a statically-allocated empty string to object_array_entry::name. When deleting such an entry, skip the free(). Change the callers that were already passing copies to add_object_array_with_mode() to either skip the copy, or (if the memory needed to be allocated anyway) freeing the memory itself. A part of this commit effectively reverts 70d26c6e76 read_revisions_from_stdin: make copies for handle_revision_arg because the copying introduced by that commit (which is still necessary) is now done at a deeper level.

2013-05-28object_array_remove_duplicates(): rewrite to reduce copyingMichael Haggerty
The old version copied one entry to its destination position, then deleted any matching entries from the tail of the array. This required the tail of the array to be copied multiple times. It didn't affect the complexity of the algorithm because the whole tail has to be searched through anyway. But all the copying was unnecessary. Instead, check for the existence of an entry with the same name in the *head* of the list before copying an entry to its final position. This way each entry has to be copied at most one time.

2013-03-17avoid segfaults on parse_object failureJeff King
Many call-sites of parse_object assume that they will get a non-NULL return value; this is not the case if we encounter an error while parsing the object. This patch adds a wrapper function around parse_object that handles dying automatically, and uses it anywhere we immediately try to access the return value as a non-NULL pointer (i.e., anywhere that we would currently segfault). This wrapper may also be useful in other places. The most obvious one is code like: o = parse_object(sha1); if (!o) die(...); However, these should not be mechanically converted to parse_object_or_die, as the die message is sometimes customized.

When copying from an existing pack and when copying from a loose object with new style header, the code makes sure that the piece we are going to copy out inflates well and inflate() consumes the data in full while doing so. The check to see if the xdelta really apply is quite expensive as you described, because you would need to have the image of the base object which can be represented as a delta against something else.

2006-07-13Remove TYPE_* constant macros and use object_type enums consistently.Linus Torvalds
This updates the type-enumeration constants introduced to reduce the memory footprint of "struct object" to match the type bits already used in the packfile format, by removing the former (i.e. TYPE_* constant macros) and using the latter (i.e. enum object_type) throughout the code for consistency. Eventually we can stop passing around the "type strings" entirely, and this will help - no confusion about two different integer enumeration.
