2010-07-28upload-pack: remove unused "create_full_pack" code in do_rev_listNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
A bit of history in chronological order, the newest at bottom: - 80ccaa7 (upload-pack: Move the revision walker into a separate function.) do_rev_list was introduced with create_full_pack argument - 21edd3f (upload-pack: Run rev-list in an asynchronous function.) do_rev_list was now called by start_async, create_full_pack was passed by rev_list.data - f0cea83 (Shift object enumeration out of upload-pack) rev_list.data was now zero permanently. Creating full pack was done by passing --all to pack-objects - ae6a560 (run-command: support custom fd-set in async) rev_list.data = 0 was found out redudant and got rid of. Get rid of the code as well, for less headache while reading do_rev_list.

2010-02-06run-command: support custom fd-set in asyncErik Faye-Lund
This patch adds the possibility to supply a set of non-0 file descriptors for async process communication instead of the default-created pipe. Additionally, we now support bi-directional communiction with the async procedure, by giving the async function both read and write file descriptors. To retain compatiblity and similar "API feel" with start_command, we require start_async callers to set .out = -1 to get a readable file descriptor. If either of .in or .out is 0, we supply no file descriptor to the async process. [sp: Note: Erik started this patch, and a huge bulk of it is his work.

2009-11-13give priority to progress messagesNicolas Pitre
In theory it is possible for sideband channel #2 to be delayed if pack data is quick to come up for sideband channel #1. And because data for channel #2 is read only 128 bytes at a time while pack data is read 8192 bytes at a time, it is possible for many pack blocks to be sent to the client before the progress message fifo is emptied, making the situation even worse. This would result in totally garbled progress display on the client's console as local progress gets mixed with partial remote progress lines. Let's prevent such situations by giving transmission priority to progress messages over pack data at all times.

2009-11-05Add stateless RPC options to upload-pack, receive-packShawn O. Pearce
When --stateless-rpc is passed as a command line parameter to upload-pack or receive-pack the programs now assume they may perform only a single read-write cycle with stdin and stdout. This fits with the HTTP POST request processing model where a program may read the request, write a response, and must exit. When --advertise-refs is passed as a command line parameter only the initial ref advertisement is output, and the program exits immediately. This fits with the HTTP GET request model, where no request content is received but a response must be produced. HTTP headers and/or environment are not processed here, but instead are assumed to be handled by the program invoking either service backend. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2009-10-31Add multi_ack_detailed capability to fetch-pack/upload-packShawn O. Pearce
When multi_ack_detailed is enabled the ACK continue messages returned by the remote upload-pack are broken out to describe the different states within the peer. This permits the client to better understand the server's in-memory state. The fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol now looks like: NAK --------------------------------- Always sent in response to "done" if there was no common base selected from the "have" lines (or no have lines were sent). * no multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed: Sent when the client has sent a pkt-line flush ("0000") and the server has not yet found a common base object. * either multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed: Always sent in response to a pkt-line flush. ACK %s ----------------------------------- * no multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed: Sent in response to "have" when the object exists on the remote side and is therefore an object in common between the peers. The argument is the SHA-1 of the common object. * either multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed: Sent in response to "done" if there are common objects. The argument is the last SHA-1 determined to be common. ACK %s continue ----------------------------------- * multi_ack only: Sent in response to "have". The remote side wants the client to consider this object as common, and immediately stop transmitting additional "have" lines for objects that are reachable from it. The reason the client should stop is not given, but is one of the two cases below available under multi_ack_detailed. ACK %s common ----------------------------------- * multi_ack_detailed only: Sent in response to "have". Both sides have this object. Like with "ACK %s continue" above the client should stop sending have lines reachable for objects from the argument. ACK %s ready ----------------------------------- * multi_ack_detailed only: Sent in response to "have". The client should stop transmitting objects which are reachable from the argument, and send "done" soon to get the objects. If the remote side has the specified object, it should first send an "ACK %s common" message prior to sending "ACK %s ready". Clients may still submit additional "have" lines if there are more side branches for the client to explore that might be added to the common set and reduce the number of objects to transfer.

In 2d14d65 (Use a clearer style to issue commands to remote helpers, 2009-09-03) I happened to notice two changes like this: - write_in_full(helper->in, "list\n", 5); + + strbuf_addstr(&buf, "list\n"); + write_in_full(helper->in, buf.buf, buf.len); + strbuf_reset(&buf); IMHO, it would be better to define a new function, static inline ssize_t write_str_in_full(int fd, const char *str) { return write_in_full(fd, str, strlen(str)); } and then use it like this: - strbuf_addstr(&buf, "list\n"); - write_in_full(helper->in, buf.buf, buf.len); - strbuf_reset(&buf); + write_str_in_full(helper->in, "list\n"); Thus not requiring the added allocation, and still avoiding the maintenance risk of literal string lengths. These days, compilers are good enough that strlen("literal") imposes no run-time cost.

2009-09-06make shallow repository deepening more network efficientNicolas Pitre
First of all, I can't find any reason why thin pack generation is explicitly disabled when dealing with a shallow repository. The possible delta base objects are collected from the edge commits which are always obtained through history walking with the same shallow refs as the client, Therefore the client is always going to have those base objects available. So let's remove that restriction. Then we can make shallow repository deepening much more efficient by using the remote's unshallowed commits as edge commits to get preferred base objects for thin pack generation. On git.git, this makes the data transfer for the deepening of a shallow repository from depth 1 to depth 2 around 134 KB instead of 3.68 MB.

2009-08-29upload-pack: feed "kind [clone|fetch]" to post-upload-pack hookJunio C Hamano
A request to clone the repository does not give any "have" but asks for all the refs we offer with "want". When a request does not ask to clone the repository fully, but asks to fetch some refs into an empty repository, it will not give any "have" but its "want" won't ask for all the refs we offer. If we suppose (and I would say this is a rather big if) that it makes sense to distinguish these two cases, a hook cannot reliably do this alone. The hook can detect lack of "have" and bunch of "want", but there is no direct way to tell if the other end asked for all refs we offered, or merely most of them. Between the time we talked with the other end and the time the hook got called, we may have acquired more refs or lost some refs in the repository by concurrent operations. Given that we plan to introduce selective advertisement of refs with a protocol extension, it would become even more difficult for hooks to guess between these two cases. This adds "kind [clone|fetch]" to hook's input, as a stable interface to allow the hooks to tell these cases apart. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-06-18upload-pack: squelch progress indicator if client cannot see itJohannes Sixt
upload-pack runs pack-objects, which generates progress indicator output on its stderr. If the client requests a sideband, this indicator is sent to the client; but if it did not, then the progress is written to upload-pack's own stderr. If upload-pack is itself run from git-daemon (and if the client did not request a sideband) the progress indicator never reaches the client and it need not be generated in the first place.

2009-04-13show_object(): push path_name() call further downLinus Torvalds
In particular, pushing the "path_name()" call _into_ the show() function would seem to allow - more clarity into who "owns" the name (ie now when we free the name in the show_object callback, it's because we generated it ourselves by calling path_name()) - not calling path_name() at all, either because we don't care about the name in the first place, or because we are actually happy walking the linked list of "struct name_path *" and the last component. Now, I didn't do that latter optimization, because it would require some more coding, but especially looking at "builtin-pack-objects.c", we really don't even want the whole pathname, we really would be better off with the list of path components. Why? We use that name for two things: - add_preferred_base_object(), which actually _wants_ to traverse the path, and now does it by looking for '/' characters! - for 'name_hash()', which only cares about the last 16 characters of a name, so again, generating the full name seems to be just unnecessary work. Anyway, so I didn't look any closer at those things, but it did convince me that the "show_object()" calling convention was crazy, and we're actually better off doing _less_ in list-objects.c, and giving people access to the internal data structures so that they can decide whether they want to generate a path-name or not. This patch does that, and then for people who did use the name (even if they might do something more clever in the future), it just does the straightforward "name = path_name(path, component); .. free(name);" thing.

2009-04-13process_{tree,blob}: show objects without bufferingLinus Torvalds
Here's a less trivial thing, and slightly more dubious one. I was looking at that "struct object_array objects", and wondering why we do that. I have honestly totally forgotten. Why not just call the "show()" function as we encounter the objects? Rather than add the objects to the object_array, and then at the very end going through the array and doing a 'show' on all, just do things more incrementally. Now, there are possible downsides to this: - the "buffer using object_array" _can_ in theory result in at least better I-cache usage (two tight loops rather than one more spread out one). I don't think this is a real issue, but in theory.. - this _does_ change the order of the objects printed. Instead of doing a "process_tree(revs, commit->tree, &objects, NULL, "");" in the loop over the commits (which puts all the root trees _first_ in the object list, this patch just adds them to the list of pending objects, and then we'll traverse them in that order (and thus show each root tree object together with the objects we discover under it) I _think_ the new ordering actually makes more sense, but the object ordering is actually a subtle thing when it comes to packing efficiency, so any change in order is going to have implications for packing. Good or bad, I dunno. - There may be some reason why we did it that odd way with the object array, that I have simply forgotten. Anyway, now that we don't buffer up the objects before showing them that may actually result in lower memory usage during that whole traverse_commit_list() phase. This is seriously not very deeply tested. It makes sense to me, it seems to pass all the tests, it looks ok, but... Does anybody remember why we did that "object_array" thing? It used to be an "object_list" a long long time ago, but got changed into the array due to better memory usage patterns (those linked lists of obejcts are horrible from a memory allocation standpoint). But I wonder why we didn't do this back then. Maybe there's a reason for it. Or maybe there _used_ to be a reason, and no longer is. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-04-08list-objects: add "void *data" parameter to show functionsChristian Couder
The goal of this patch is to get rid of the "static struct rev_info revs" static variable in "builtin-rev-list.c". To do that, we need to pass the revs to the "show_commit" function in "builtin-rev-list.c" and this in turn means that the "traverse_commit_list" function in "list-objects.c" must be passed functions pointers to functions with 2 parameters instead of one. So we have to change all the callers and all the functions passed to "traverse_commit_list". Anyway this makes the code more clean and more generic, so it should be a good thing in the long run.

2007-11-06upload-pack: Use finish_{command,async}() instead of waitpid().Johannes Sixt
upload-pack spawns two processes, rev-list and pack-objects, and carefully monitors their status so that it can report failure to the remote end. This change removes the complicated procedures on the grounds of the following observations: - If everything is OK, rev-list closes its output pipe end, upon which pack-objects (which reads from the pipe) sees EOF and terminates itself, closing its output (and error) pipes. upload-pack reads from both until it sees EOF in both. It collects the exit codes of the child processes (which indicate success) and terminates successfully. - If rev-list sees an error, it closes its output and terminates with failure. pack-objects sees EOF in its input and terminates successfully. Again upload-pack reads its inputs until EOF. When it now collects the exit codes of its child processes, it notices the failure of rev-list and signals failure to the remote end. - If pack-objects sees an error, it terminates with failure. Since this breaks the pipe to rev-list, rev-list is killed with SIGPIPE. upload-pack reads its input until EOF, then collects the exit codes of the child processes, notices their failures, and signals failure to the remote end. - If upload-pack itself dies unexpectedly, pack-objects is killed with SIGPIPE, and subsequently also rev-list. The upshot of this is that precise monitoring of child processes is not required because both terminate if either one of them dies unexpectedly. This allows us to use finish_command() and finish_async() instead of an explicit waitpid(2) call. The change is smaller than it looks because most of it only reduces the indentation of a large part of the inner loop.

2007-10-21upload-pack: Run rev-list in an asynchronous function.Johannes Sixt
This gets rid of an explicit fork(). Since upload-pack has to coordinate two processes (rev-list and pack-objects), we cannot use the normal finish_async(), but have to monitor the process explicitly. Hence, there are no changes at this front. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at> Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
2007-10-21upload-pack: Move the revision walker into a separate function.Johannes Sixt
This allows us later to use start_async() with this function, and at the same time is a nice cleanup that makes a long function (create_pack_file()) shorter. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at> Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
2007-10-21upload-pack: Use start_command() to run pack-objects in create_pack_file().Johannes Sixt
This gets rid of an explicit fork/exec. Since upload-pack has to coordinate two processes (rev-list and pack-objects), we cannot use the normal finish_command(), but have to monitor the processes explicitly. Hence, the waitpid() call remains. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at> Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
