lhchavez aa532e29 2020-10-31T07:51:03 Fix the `-DTHREADSAFE=OFF` build This change avoids using the `(void)0` construct for some of the mutex `#define`s, since that makes the "return type" of those "functions" to be `void` instead of `int`.
Edward Thomson 20450cbe 2020-10-14T13:44:59 Merge pull request #5546 from libgit2/ethomson/init Refactor "global" state
lhchavez fa3daa82 2020-10-13T08:02:59 Define `git___load` when building with `-DTHREADSAFE=OFF` This should allow folks that build in non-thread-safe environments to still be able to build the library. Fixes: #5663
Edward Thomson fe12423a 2020-05-12T13:08:22 init: move thread init to git_global_threads_init Instead of treating win32 thread initialization specially in the win32 git_libgit2_init function, add a git_global_threads_init function.
lhchavez 03c0938f 2020-08-25T06:13:38 Avoid using atomics in pool.c Instead, globally initialize the system page size.
lhchavez cc1d7f5c 2020-08-01T17:47:20 Improve the support of atomics This change: * Starts using GCC's and clang's `__atomic_*` intrinsics instead of the `__sync_*` ones, since the former supercede the latter (and can be safely replaced by their equivalent `__atomic_*` version with the sequentially consistent model). * Makes `git_atomic64`'s value `volatile`. Otherwise, this will make ThreadSanitizer complain. * Adds ways to load the values from atomics. As it turns out, unsynchronized read are okay only in some architectures, but if we want to be correct (and make ThreadSanitizer happy), those loads should also be performed with the atomic builtins. * Fixes two ThreadSanitizer warnings, as a proof-of-concept that this works: - Avoid directly accessing `git_refcount`'s `owner` directly, and instead makes all callers go through the `GIT_REFCOUNT_*()` macros, which also use the atomic utilities. - Makes `pool_system_page_size()` race-free. Part of: #5592
Edward Thomson abb04caa 2018-02-01T15:55:48 consistent header guards use consistent names for the #include / #define header guard pattern.
Edward Thomson aa5ea47f 2017-02-22T10:34:19 Provide error on gcc < 4.1 when THREADSAFE Provide a descriptive error message when compiling THREADSAFE on gcc versions < 4.1. We require the atomic primitives (eg `__sync_synchronize`) that were introduced in that version. (Note, clang setes `__GNUC__` but appears to set its version > 4.1.)
Patrick Steinhardt 8aaa9fb6 2016-06-20T18:21:42 win32: rename pthread.{c,h} to thread.{c,h} The old pthread-file did re-implement the pthreads API with exact symbol matching. As the thread-abstraction has now been split up between Unix- and Windows-specific files within the `git_` namespace to avoid symbol-clashes between libgit2 and pthreads, the rewritten wrappers have nothing to do with pthreads anymore. Rename the Windows-specific pthread-files to honor this change.

Edward Thomson 369b0217 2014-10-13T13:34:15 Clean up various compiler warnings
Sam Clegg ccd8ba9b 2014-09-08T16:45:57 Fix warnings in thread-utils.h when building without -DTHREADSAFE=ON The compiler was generating a bunch of warnings for git_mutex_init and git_mutex_lock when GIT_THREADS was not defined (i.e. when not using -DTHREADSAFE=ON). Also remove an unused variable from tests/path/core.c.

Russell Belfer 8a2834d3 2014-03-14T13:20:51 Index locking and entry allocation changes This makes the lock management on the index a little bit broader, having a number of routines hold the lock across looking up the item to be modified and actually making the modification. Still not true thread safety, but more pure index modifications are now safe which allows the simple cases (such as starting up a diff while index modifications are underway) safe enough to get the snapshot without hitting allocation problems. As part of this, I simplified the allocation of index entries to use a flex array and just put the path at the end of the index entry. This makes every entry self-contained and makes it a little easier to feel sure that pointers to strings aren't being accidentally copied and freed while other references are still being held.
Russell Belfer 43095341 2013-08-26T14:56:31 Load SRWLock APIs at runtime This loads SRWLock APIs at runtime and in their absence (i.e. on Windows before Vista) falls back on a regular CRITICAL_SECTION that will not permit concurrent readers.
Russell Belfer eb868b1e 2013-08-22T14:34:21 Drop support for THREADSAFE on Windows XP This makes libgit2 require Windows Vista or newer if it is going to be compiled with the THREADSAFE option
Russell Belfer 972bb689 2013-08-22T14:10:56 Add SRWLock implementation of rwlocks for Win32
Russell Belfer 8d9a85d4 2013-08-22T11:40:53 Convert sortedcache to use rwlock This is the first use we have of pthread_rwlock_t in libgit2. Hopefully it won't cause any serious portability problems.
Russell Belfer 814de0bc 2013-07-11T11:00:41 Update git__swap thread helper This makes git__swap use the __sync_lock_test_and_set primitive with GCC and the InterlockedExchangePointer primitive with MSVC. Previously is used compare_and_swap in a way that was probably unintuitive for most thinking (i.e. it could fail to swap in the value if another thread raced in). Now it will always succeed and the last thread to run in a race will win instead of the first thread. This also fixes up a little confusion between volatile void ** and void * volatile * that came up with the Win32 compiler.

Russell Belfer 114f5a6c 2013-06-10T10:10:39 Reorganize diff and add basic diff driver This is a significant reorganization of the diff code to break it into a set of more clearly distinct files and to document the new organization. Hopefully this will make the diff code easier to understand and to extend. This adds a new `git_diff_driver` object that looks of diff driver information from the attributes and the config so that things like function content in diff headers can be provided. The full driver spec is not implemented in the commit - this is focused on the reorganization of the code and putting the driver hooks in place. This also removes a few #includes from src/repository.h that were overbroad, but as a result required extra #includes in a variety of places since including src/repository.h no longer results in pulling in the whole world.
Russell Belfer 1a42dd17 2013-05-31T14:13:11 Mutex init can fail It is obviously quite a serious problem if this happens, but mutex initialization can fail and we should detect it. It's a bit like a memory allocation failure, in that you're probably pretty screwed if this occurs, but at least we'll catch it.

Russell Belfer 38eef611 2013-04-16T14:19:27 Make indexer use shared packfile open code The indexer was creating a packfile object separately from the code in pack.c which was a problem since I put a call to git_mutex_init into just pack.c. This commit updates the pack function for creating a new pack object (i.e. git_packfile_check()) so that it can be used in both places and then makes indexer.c use the shared initialization routine. There are also a few minor formatting and warning message fixes.
Russell Belfer e976b56d 2013-04-15T14:27:53 Add git__compare_and_swap and use it This removes the lock from the repository object and changes the internals to use the new atomic git__compare_and_swap to update the _odb, _config, _index, and _refdb variables in a threadsafe manner.

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 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>

Vicent Marti 348c7335 2011-02-17T21:32:00 Improve the performance when writing Index files In response to issue #60 (git_index_write really slow), the write_index function has been rewritten to improve its performance -- it should now be in par with the performance of git.git. On top of that, if Posix Threads are available when compiling libgit2, a new threaded writing system will be used (3 separate threads take care of solving byte-endianness, hashing the contents of the index and writing to disk, respectively). For very long Index files, this method is up to 3x times faster than git.git. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>

Ramsay Jones 3e0fb8fb 2009-06-04T17:12:59 thread-utils.h: Avoid using a non-standard C construct In particular, in standard C, a struct or union must have at least one member declared (ie. structs and unions cannot be empty). Some compilers allow empty structs as an extension and won't even issue a warning unless asked for it (eg, gcc requires -pedantic). Some compilers allow empty structs as an extension and will only treat it as an error if asked for strict checking (eg Digital-Mars with -A).

Andreas Ericsson 36f0f61f 2008-11-18T19:06:25 Add compiler/platform agnostic thread-local storage It doesn't cover all cases, but we can work on those as we go along. For now, gcc, MSVC++, Intel C/C++, IBM XL C/C++, Sun Studio C/C++ and Borland C++ Builder are the supported compilers (although we boldly assume that they all are of a recent enough version to support thread-local storage). This is intended to be used in upcoming patches that implement graceful (but TLS-dependant) error-handling in the library. As an added bonus, we also bring the online_cpus() function from git.git to detect the number of usable cpu's. Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
