strvec: `strvec_splice()` to a statically initialized vector
We use a singleton empty array to initialize a `struct strvec`;
similar to the empty string singleton we use to initialize a `struct
strbuf`.
Note that an empty strvec instance (with zero elements) does not
necessarily need to be an instance initialized with the singleton.
Let's refer to strvec instances initialized with the singleton as
"empty-singleton" instances.
As a side note, this is the current `strvec_pop()`:
So, with `strvec_pop()` an instance can become empty but it does
not going to be the an "empty-singleton".
This "empty-singleton" circumstance requires us to be careful when
adding elements to instances. Specifically, when adding the first
element: when we detach the strvec instance from the singleton and
set the internal pointer in the instance to NULL. After this point we
apply `realloc()` on the pointer. We do this in
`strvec_push_nodup()`, for example.
The recently introduced `strvec_splice()` API is expected to be
normally used with non-empty strvec's. However, it can also end up
being used with "empty-singleton" strvec's:
struct strvec arr = STRVEC_INIT;
int a = 0, b = 0;
object-name: fix reversed ordering with ":/<text>" revisions
Recently it was reported [1] that "look for the youngest commit
reachable from any ref with log message that match the given
pattern" syntax (i.e. ':/<text>') started to return results in
reverse recency order. This regression was introduced in Git v2.47.0
and is caused by a memory leak fix done in 57fb139b5e (object-name:
fix leaking commit list items, 2024-08-01).
The intent of the identified commit is to stop modifying the commit list
provided by the caller such that the caller can properly free all commit
list items, including those that the called function might potentially
remove from the list. This was done by creating a copy of the passed-in
commit list and modifying this copy instead of the caller-provided list.
We already knew to create such a copy beforehand with the `backup` list,
which was used to clear the `ONELINE_SEEN` commit mark after we were
done. So the refactoring simply renamed that list to `copy` and started
to operate on that list instead. There is a gotcha though: the backup
list, and thus now also the copied list, is always being prepended to,
so the resulting list is in reverse order! The end result is that we
pop commits from the wrong end of the commit list, returning commits in
reverse recency order.

describe: split "found all tags" and max_candidates logic
Commit a30154187a (describe: stop traversing when we run out of names,
2024-10-31) taught git-describe to automatically reduce the
max_candidates setting to match the total number of possible names. This
lets us break out of the traversal rather than fruitlessly searching for
more candidates when there are no more to be found.
However, setting max_candidates to 0 (e.g., if the repo has no tags)
overlaps with the --exact-match option, which explicitly uses the same
value. And this causes a regression with --always, which is ignored in
exact-match mode. We used to get this in a repo with no tags:
The reason is that we bail early in describe_commit() when
max_candidates is set to 0. This logic goes all the way back to 2c33f75754 (Teach git-describe --exact-match to avoid expensive tag
searches, 2008-02-24).
We should obviously fix this regression, but there are two paths,
depending on what you think:
$ git describe --always --exact-match
and
$ git describe --always --candidates=0
should do. Since the "--always" option was added, it has always been
ignored in --exact-match (or --candidates=0) mode. I.e., we treat
--exact-match as a true exact match of a tag, and never fall back to
using --always, even if it was requested.
If we think that's a bug (or at least a misfeature), then the right
solution is to fix it by removing the early bail-out from 2c33f75754,
letting the noop algorithm run and then hitting the --always fallback
output. And then our regression naturally goes away, because it follows
the same path.
If we think that the current "--exact-match --always" behavior is the
right thing, then we have to differentiate the case where we
automatically reduced max_candidates to 0 from the case where the user
asked for it specifically. That's possible to do with a flag, but we can
also just reimplement the logic from a30154187a to explicitly break out
of the traversal when we run out of candidates (rather than relying on
the existing max_candidates check).
My gut feeling is along the lines of option 1 (it's a bug, and people
would be happy for "--exact-match --always" to give the fallback rather
than ignoring "--always"). But the documentation can be interpreted in
the other direction, and we've certainly lived with the existing
behavior for many years. So it's possible that changing it now is the
wrong thing.
So this patch fixes the regression by taking the second option,
retaining the "--exact-match" behavior as-is. There are two new tests.
The first shows that the regression is fixed (we don't even need a new
repo without tags; a restrictive --match is enough to create the
situation that there are no candidate names).
The second test confirms that the "--exact-match --always" behavior
remains unchanged and continues to die when there is no tag pointing at
the specified commit. It's possible we may reconsider this in the
future, but this shows that the approach described above is implemented
faithfully.
We can also run the perf tests in p6100 to see that we've retained the
speedup that a30154187a was going for:

existing calls to both:
- get_packed_git(), as well as
- the_repository->objects->packed_git
, to instead use the new get_all_packs() function.
In the instance that this commit addresses, there was a preceding call
to prepare_packed_git(), which dates all the way back to 660c889e46
(sha1_file: add for_each iterators for loose and packed objects,
2014-10-15) when its caller (for_each_packed_object()) was first
introduced.
This call could have been removed in 454ea2e4d7, since get_all_packs()
itself calls prepare_packed_git(). But the translation in 454ea2e4d7 was
(to the best of my knowledge) a find-and-replace rather than inspecting
each individual caller.
Having an extra prepare_packed_git() call here is harmless, since it
will notice that we have already set the 'packed_git_initialized' field
and the call will be a noop. So we're only talking about a few dozen CPU
cycles to set up and tear down the stack frame.
But having a lone prepare_packed_git() call immediately before a call to
get_all_packs() confused me, so let's remove it as redundant to avoid
more confusion in the future.

Here, we add a pointer to the repository in this struct, allowing direct

With this addition, we can determine the repository associated with a

In `index-pack.c` we add it to the `pack_idx_option` struct and its
constructor. While the repository struct is available here, it may not
be set because `git index-pack` can be used without a repository.
In `gc.c` add it to the `gc_config` struct and also the constructor
function. The gc functions currently do not have direct access to a
repository struct.
These changes are made to remove the usage of `delta_base_cache_limit`
as a global variable in `packfile.c`. This brings us one step closer to
removing the `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` definition in `packfile.c`
which we complete in the next patch.

ref-cache: fix invalid free operation in `free_ref_entry`
In cfd971520e (refs: keep track of unresolved reference value in
iterators, 2024-08-09), we added a new field "referent" into the "struct
ref" structure. In order to free the "referent", we unconditionally
freed the "referent" by simply adding a "free" statement.
However, this is a bad usage. Because when ref entry is either directory
or loose ref, we will always execute the following statement:
free(entry->u.value.referent);
This does not make sense. We should never access the "entry->u.value"
field when "entry" is a directory. However, the change obviously doesn't
break the tests. Let's analysis why.
The anonymous union in the "ref_entry" has two members: one is "struct
ref_value", another is "struct ref_dir". On a 64-bit machine, the size
of "struct ref_dir" is 32 bytes, which is smaller than the 48-byte size
of "struct ref_value". And the offset of "referent" field in "struct
ref_value" is 40 bytes. So, whenever we create a new "ref_entry" for a
directory, we will leave the offset from 40 bytes to 48 bytes untouched,
which means the value for this memory is zero (NULL). It's OK to free a
NULL pointer, but this is merely a coincidence of memory layout.
To fix this issue, we now ensure that "free(entry->u.value.referent)" is
only called when "entry->flag" indicates that it represents a loose
reference and not a directory to avoid the invalid memory operation.

When reading references the reftable backend has to:
1. Create a new ref iterator.
2. Seek the iterator to the record we're searching for.
3. Read the record.
We cannot really avoid the last two steps, but re-creating the iterator
every single time we want to read a reference is kind of expensive and a
waste of resources. We couldn't help it in the past though because it
was not possible to reuse iterators. But starting with 5bf96e0c39
(reftable/generic: move seeking of records into the iterator,
2024-05-13) we have split up the iterator lifecycle such that creating
the iterator and seeking are two different concerns.
Refactor the code such that we cache iterators in the reftable backend.
This cache is invalidated whenever the respective stack is reloaded such
that we know to recreate the iterator in that case. This leads to a
sizeable speedup when creating many refs, which requires a lot of random
reference reads:
Benchmark 1: update-ref: create many refs (refcount = 100000, revision = master)
Time (mean ± σ): 1.793 s ± 0.010 s [User: 0.954 s, System: 0.835 s]
Range (min … max): 1.781 s … 1.811 s 10 runs
Benchmark 2: update-ref: create many refs (refcount = 100000, revision = HEAD)
Time (mean ± σ): 1.680 s ± 0.013 s [User: 0.846 s, System: 0.831 s]
Range (min … max): 1.664 s … 1.702 s 10 runs
Summary
update-ref: create many refs (refcount = 100000, revision = HEAD) ran
1.07 ± 0.01 times faster than update-ref: create many refs (refcount = 100000, revision = master)
While 7% is not a huge win, you have to consider that the benchmark is
_writing_ data, so _reading_ references is only one part of what we do.
Flame graphs show that we spend around 40% of our time reading refs, so
the speedup when reading refs is approximately ~2.5x that. I could not
find better benchmarks where we perform a lot of random ref reads.
You can also see a sizeable impact on memory usage when creating 100k
references. Before this change:
HEAP SUMMARY:
in use at exit: 19,112,538 bytes in 200,170 blocks
total heap usage: 8,400,426 allocs, 8,200,256 frees, 454,367,048 bytes allocated
After this change:
HEAP SUMMARY:
in use at exit: 674,416 bytes in 169 blocks
total heap usage: 7,929,872 allocs, 7,929,703 frees, 281,509,985 bytes allocated
As an additional factor, this refactoring opens up the possibility for
more performance optimizations in how we re-seek iterators. Any change
that allows us to optimize re-seeking by e.g. reusing data structures
would thus also directly speed up random reads.

In 5bf96e0c39 (reftable/generic: move seeking of records into the
iterator, 2024-05-13) we have refactored the reftable codebase such that
iterators can be initialized once and then re-seeked multiple times.
This feature is used by 1869525066 (refs/reftable: wire up support for
exclude patterns, 2024-09-16) in order to skip records based on exclude
patterns provided by the caller.
The logic to re-seek the merged iterator is insufficient though because
we don't drain the priority queue on a re-seek. This means that the
queue may contain stale entries and thus reading the next record in the
queue will return the wrong entry. While this is an obvious bug, it is
harmless in the context of above exclude patterns:
- If the queue contained stale entries that match the pattern then the
caller would already know to filter out such refs. This is because
our codebase is prepared to handle backends that don't have a way to
efficiently implement exclude patterns.
- If the queue contained stale entries that don't match the pattern
we'd eventually filter out any duplicates. This is because the
reftable code discards items with the same ref name and sorts any
remaining entries properly.
So things happen to work in this context regardless of the bug, and
there is no other use case yet where we re-seek iterators. We're about
to introduce a caching mechanism though where iterators are reused by
the reftable backend, and that will expose the bug.
Fix the issue by draining the priority queue when seeking and add a
testcase that surfaces the issue.

reftable/stack: add mechanism to notify callers on reload
Reftable stacks are reloaded in two cases:

- When committing a reftable addition.
While callers can figure out the second case, they do not have a
mechanism to figure out whether `reftable_stack_reload()` led to an
actual reload of the on-disk data. All they can do is thus to assume
that data is always being reloaded in that case.
Improve the situation by introducing a new `on_reload()` callback to the
reftable options. If provided, the function will be invoked every time
the stack has indeed been reloaded. This allows callers to invalidate
data that depends on the current stack data.

refs/reftable: refactor reflog expiry to use reftable backend
Refactor the callback function that expires reflog entries in the
reftable backend to use `reftable_backend_read_ref()` instead of
accessing the reftable stack directly. This ensures that the function
will benefit from the new caching layer that we're about to introduce.

refs/reftable: refactor reading symbolic refs to use reftable backend
Refactor the callback function that reads symbolic references in the
reftable backend to use `reftable_backend_read_ref()` instead of
accessing the reftable stack directly. This ensures that the function
will benefit from the new caching layer that we're about to introduce.

refs/reftable: read references via `struct reftable_backend`
Refactor `read_ref_without_reload()` to accept `struct reftable_backend`
as parameter instead of `struct reftable_stack`. Rename the function to
`reftable_backend_read_ref()` to clarify its scope and move it close to
other functions operating on `struct reftable_backend`.
This change allows us to implement an additional caching layer when
reading refs where we can reuse reftable iterators.

refs/reftable: figure out hash via `reftable_stack`
The function `read_ref_without_reload()` accepts a ref store as input
only so that we can figure out the hash function used by it. This is
duplicate information though because the reftable stack knows about its
hash function, too.
Drop the superfluous parameter to simplify the calling convention a bit.
