Edward Thomson bed9fc6b 2019-06-23T15:16:47 odb: use `git_object_size_t` for object size Instead of using a signed type (`off_t`) use a new `git_object_size_t` for the sizes of objects.

Edward Thomson 619f61a8 2018-02-01T06:22:36 odb: error when we can't create object header Return an error to the caller when we can't create an object header for some reason (printf failure) instead of simply asserting.
Patrick Steinhardt 0c7f49dd 2017-06-30T13:39:01 Make sure to always include "common.h" first Next to including several files, our "common.h" header also declares various macros which are then used throughout the project. As such, we have to make sure to always include this file first in all implementation files. Otherwise, we might encounter problems or even silent behavioural differences due to macros or defines not being defined as they should be. So in fact, our header and implementation files should make sure to always include "common.h" first. This commit does so by establishing a common include pattern. Header files inside of "src" will now always include "common.h" as its first other file, separated by a newline from all the other includes to make it stand out as special. There are two cases for the implementation files. If they do have a matching header file, they will always include this one first, leading to "common.h" being transitively included as first file. If they do not have a matching header file, they instead include "common.h" as first file themselves. This fixes the outlined problems and will become our standard practice for header and source files inside of the "src/" from now on.
Patrick Steinhardt 35079f50 2017-04-21T07:31:56 odb: add option to turn off hash verification Verifying hashsums of objects we are reading from the ODB may be costly as we have to perform an additional hashsum calculation on the object. Especially when reading large objects, the penalty can be as high as 35%, as can be seen when executing the equivalent of `git cat-file` with and without verification enabled. To mitigate for this, we add a global option for libgit2 which enables the developer to turn off the verification, e.g. when he can be reasonably sure that the objects on disk won't be corrupted.
Patrick Steinhardt 28a0741f 2017-04-10T09:30:08 odb: verify object hashes The upstream git.git project verifies objects when looking them up from disk. This avoids scenarios where objects have somehow become corrupt on disk, e.g. due to hardware failures or bit flips. While our mantra is usually to follow upstream behavior, we do not do so in this case, as we never check hashes of objects we have just read from disk. To fix this, we create a new error class `GIT_EMISMATCH` which denotes that we have looked up an object with a hashsum mismatch. `odb_read_1` will then, after having read the object from its backend, hash the object and compare the resulting hash to the expected hash. If hashes do not match, it will return an error. This obviously introduces another computation of checksums and could potentially impact performance. Note though that we usually perform I/O operations directly before doing this computation, and as such the actual overhead should be drowned out by I/O. Running our test suite seems to confirm this guess. On a Linux system with best-of-five timings, we had 21.592s with the check enabled and 21.590s with the ckeck disabled. Note though that our test suite mostly contains very small blobs only. It is expected that repositories with bigger blobs may notice an increased hit by this check. In addition to a new test, we also had to change the odb::backend::nonrefreshing test suite, which now triggers a hashsum mismatch when looking up the commit "deadbeef...". This is expected, as the fake backend allocated inside of the test will return an empty object for the OID "deadbeef...", which will obviously not hash back to "deadbeef..." again. We can simply adjust the hash to equal the hash of the empty object here to fix this test.

Edward Thomson e10144ae 2016-03-04T01:18:30 odb: improved not found error messages When looking up an abbreviated oid, show the actual (abbreviated) oid the caller passed instead of a full (but ambiguously truncated) oid.
Carlos Martín Nieto 77b339f7 2015-05-12T13:06:33 odb: make the writestream's size a git_off_t Restricting files to size_t is a silly limitation. The loose backend writes to a file directly, so there is no issue in using 63 bits for the size. We still assume that the header is going to fit in 64 bytes, which does mean quite a bit smaller files due to the run-length encoding, but it's still a much larger size than you would want Git to handle.
Russell Belfer 85d54812 2013-08-28T16:44:04 Create public filter object and use it This creates include/sys/filter.h with a basic definition of a git_filter and then converts the internal code to use it. There are related internal objects (git_filter_list) that we will want to publish at some point, but this is a first step.
Russell Belfer 78606263 2013-04-15T00:05:44 Add callback to git_objects_table This adds create and free callback to the git_objects_table so that more of the creation and destruction of objects can be table driven instead of using switch statements. This also makes the semantics of certain object creation functions consistent so that we can make better use of function pointers. This also fixes a theoretical error case where an object allocation fails and we end up storing NULL into the cache.

Carlos Martín Nieto f56f8585 2012-11-19T22:23:16 indexer: use the packfile streaming API The new API allows us to read the object bit by bit from the packfile, instead of needing it all at once in the packfile. This also allows us to hash the object as it comes in from the network instead of having to try to read it all and failing repeatedly for larger objects. This is only the first step, but it already shows huge improvements when dealing with objects over a few megabytes in size. It reduces the memory needs in some cases, but delta objects still need to be completely in memory and the old inefficent method is still used for that.
Russell Belfer c6ac28fd 2012-09-10T12:24:05 Reorg internal odb read header and object lookup Often `git_odb_read_header` will "fail" and have to read the entire object into memory instead of just the header. When this happens, the object is loaded and then disposed of immediately, which makes it difficult to efficiently use the header information to decide if the object should be loaded (since attempting to do so will often result in loading the object twice). This commit takes the existing code and reorganizes it to have two new functions: - `git_odb__read_header_or_object` which acts just like the old read header function except that it returns the object, too, if it was forced to load the whole thing. It then becomes the callers responsibility to free the `git_odb_object`. - `git_object__from_odb_object` which was extracted from the old `git_object_lookup` and creates a subclass of `git_object` from an existing `git_odb_object` (separating the ODB lookup from the `git_object` creation). This allows you to use the first header reading function efficiently without instantiating the `git_odb_object` twice. There is no net change to the behavior of any of the existing functions, but this allows internal code to tap into the ODB lookup and object creation to be more efficient.
Russell Belfer 60b9d3fc 2012-09-05T15:00:40 Implement filters for status/diff blobs This adds support to diff and status for running filters (a la crlf) on blobs in the workdir before computing SHAs and before generating text diffs. This ended up being a bit more code change than I had thought since I had to reorganize some of the diff logic to minimize peak memory use when filtering blobs in a diff. This also adds a cap on the maximum size of data that will be loaded to diff. I set it at 512Mb which should match core git. Right now it is a #define in src/diff.h but it could be moved into the public API if desired.

Russell Belfer 282283ac 2012-05-04T16:46:46 Fix valgrind issues There are three changes here: - correctly propogate error code from failed object lookups - make zlib inflate use our allocators - add OID to notfound error in ODB lookups
Russell Belfer e1de726c 2012-03-12T22:55:40 Migrate ODB files to new error handling This migrates odb.c, odb_loose.c, odb_pack.c and pack.c to the new style of error handling. Also got the unix and win32 versions of map.c. There are some minor changes to other files but no others were completely converted. This also contains an update to filebuf so that a zeroed out filebuf will not think that the fd (== 0) is actually open (and inadvertently call close() on fd 0 if cleaned up). Lastly, this was built and tested on win32 and contains a bunch of fixes for the win32 build which was pretty broken.

Vicent Marti 9462c471 2011-11-25T08:16:26 repository: Change ownership semantics The ownership semantics have been changed all over the library to be consistent. There are no more "borrowed" or duplicated references. Main changes: - `git_repository_open2` and `3` have been dropped. - Added setters and getters to hotswap all the repository owned objects: `git_repository_index` `git_repository_set_index` `git_repository_odb` `git_repository_set_odb` `git_repository_config` `git_repository_set_config` `git_repository_workdir` `git_repository_set_workdir` Now working directories/index files/ODBs and so on can be hot-swapped after creating a repository and between operations. - All these objects now have proper ownership semantics with refcounting: they all require freeing after they are no longer needed (the repository always keeps its internal reference). - Repository open and initialization has been updated to keep in mind the configuration files. Bare repositories are now always detected, and a default config file is created on init. - All the tests affected by these changes have been dropped from the old test suite and ported to the new one.
Brodie Rao 01ad7b3a 2011-09-06T15:48:45 *: correct and codify various file permissions The following files now have 0444 permissions: - loose objects - pack indexes - pack files - packs downloaded by fetch - packs downloaded by the HTTP transport And the following files now have 0666 permissions: - config files - repository indexes - reflogs - refs This brings libgit2 more in line with Git. Note that git_filebuf_commit() and git_filebuf_commit_at() have both gained a new mode parameter. The latter change fixes an important issue where filebufs created with GIT_FILEBUF_TEMPORARY received 0600 permissions (due to mkstemp(3) usage). Now we chmod() the file before renaming it into place. Tests have been added to confirm that new commit, tag, and tree objects are created with the right permissions. I don't have access to Windows, so for now I've guarded the tests with "#ifndef GIT_WIN32".
Brodie Rao ce8cd006 2011-09-07T15:32:44 fileops/repository: create (most) directories with 0777 permissions To further match how Git behaves, this change makes most of the directories libgit2 creates in a git repo have a file mode of 0777. Specifically: - Intermediate directories created with git_futils_mkpath2file() have 0777 permissions. This affects odb_loose, reflog, and refs. - The top level folder for bare repos is created with 0777 permissions. - The top level folder for non-bare repos is created with 0755 permissions. - /objects/info/, /objects/pack/, /refs/heads/, and /refs/tags/ are created with 0777 permissions. Additionally, the following changes have been made: - fileops functions that create intermediate directories have grown a new dirmode parameter. The only exception to this is filebuf's lock_file(), which unconditionally creates intermediate directories with 0777 permissions when GIT_FILEBUF_FORCE is set. - The test runner now sets the umask to 0 before running any tests. This ensurses all file mode checks are consistent across systems. - t09-tree.c now does a directory permissions check. I've avoided adding this check to other tests that might reuse existing directories from the prefabricated test repos. Because they're checked into the repo, they have 0755 permissions. - Other assorted directories created by tests have 0777 permissions.
Vicent Marti 87d9869f 2011-09-19T03:34:49 Tabify everything There were quite a few places were spaces were being used instead of tabs. Try to catch them all. This should hopefully not break anything. Except for `git blame`. Oh well.

Vicent Marti c85e08b1 2011-08-16T13:05:05 odb: Do not pass around a header when hashing
Vicent Marti 72a3fe42 2011-03-18T19:38:49 I broke your bindings Hey. Apologies in advance -- I broke your bindings. This is a major commit that includes a long-overdue redesign of the whole object-database structure. This is expected to be the last major external API redesign of the library until the first non-alpha release. Please get your bindings up to date with these changes. They will be included in the next minor release. Sorry again! Major features include: - Real caching and refcounting on parsed objects - Real caching and refcounting on objects read from the ODB - Streaming writes & reads from the ODB - Single-method writes for all object types - The external API is now partially thread-safe The speed increases are significant in all aspects, specially when reading an object several times from the ODB (revwalking) and when writing big objects to the ODB. Here's a full changelog for the external API: blob.h ------ - Remove `git_blob_new` - Remove `git_blob_set_rawcontent` - Remove `git_blob_set_rawcontent_fromfile` - Rename `git_blob_writefile` -> `git_blob_create_fromfile` - Change `git_blob_create_fromfile`: The `path` argument is now relative to the repository's working dir - Add `git_blob_create_frombuffer` commit.h -------- - Remove `git_commit_new` - Remove `git_commit_add_parent` - Remove `git_commit_set_message` - Remove `git_commit_set_committer` - Remove `git_commit_set_author` - Remove `git_commit_set_tree` - Add `git_commit_create` - Add `git_commit_create_v` - Add `git_commit_create_o` - Add `git_commit_create_ov` tag.h ----- - Remove `git_tag_new` - Remove `git_tag_set_target` - Remove `git_tag_set_name` - Remove `git_tag_set_tagger` - Remove `git_tag_set_message` - Add `git_tag_create` - Add `git_tag_create_o` tree.h ------ - Change `git_tree_entry_2object`: New signature is `(git_object **object_out, git_repository *repo, git_tree_entry *entry)` - Remove `git_tree_new` - Remove `git_tree_add_entry` - Remove `git_tree_remove_entry_byindex` - Remove `git_tree_remove_entry_byname` - Remove `git_tree_clearentries` - Remove `git_tree_entry_set_id` - Remove `git_tree_entry_set_name` - Remove `git_tree_entry_set_attributes` object.h ------------ - Remove `git_object_new - Remove `git_object_write` - Change `git_object_close`: This method is now *mandatory*. Not closing an object causes a memory leak. odb.h ----- - Remove type `git_rawobj` - Remove `git_rawobj_close` - Rename `git_rawobj_hash` -> `git_odb_hash` - Change `git_odb_hash`: New signature is `(git_oid *id, const void *data, size_t len, git_otype type)` - Add type `git_odb_object` - Add `git_odb_object_close` - Change `git_odb_read`: New signature is `(git_odb_object **out, git_odb *db, const git_oid *id)` - Change `git_odb_read_header`: New signature is `(size_t *len_p, git_otype *type_p, git_odb *db, const git_oid *id)` - Remove `git_odb_write` - Add `git_odb_open_wstream` - Add `git_odb_open_rstream` odb_backend.h ------------- - Change type `git_odb_backend`: New internal signatures are as follows int (* read)(void **, size_t *, git_otype *, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *) int (* read_header)(size_t *, git_otype *, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *) int (* writestream)(struct git_odb_stream **, struct git_odb_backend *, size_t, git_otype) int (* readstream)( struct git_odb_stream **, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *) - Add type `git_odb_stream` - Add enum `git_odb_streammode` Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>

Shawn O. Pearce a7c60cfc 2009-01-03T02:41:26 Add basic support to read pack-*.idx v1 and v2 files The index data is mapped into memory and then scanned using a binary search algorithm to locate the matching entry for the supplied git_oid. The standard fanout hash trick is applied to reduce the search space by 8 iterations. Since the v1 and v2 file formats differ in their search function, due to the different layouts used for the object records, we use two different search implementations and a virtual function pointer to jump to the correct version of code for the current pack index. The single function jump per-pack should be faster then computing a branch point inside the inner loop of a common binary search. To improve concurrency during read operations the pack lock is only held while verifying the index is actually open, or while opening the index for the first time. This permits multiple concurrent readers to scan through the same index. If an invalid index file is opened we close it and mark the git_pack's invalid bit to true. The git_pack structure is kept around in its parent git_packlist, but the invalid bit will cause all future readers to skip over the pack entirely. Pruning the invalid entries is relatively unimportant because they shouldn't be very common, a $GIT_DIRECTORY/objects/pack directory tends to only have valid pack files. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
