Junio C Hamano 991b4d47f0 Merge branch 'ps/avoid-unnecessary-hook-invocation-with-packed-refs'
Because a deletion of ref would need to remove it from both the
loose ref store and the packed ref store, a delete-ref operation
that logically removes one ref may end up invoking ref-transaction
hook twice, which has been corrected.

* ps/avoid-unnecessary-hook-invocation-with-packed-refs:
  refs: skip hooks when deleting uncovered packed refs
  refs: do not execute reference-transaction hook on packing refs
  refs: demonstrate excessive execution of the reference-transaction hook
  refs: allow skipping the reference-transaction hook
  refs: allow passing flags when beginning transactions
  refs: extract packed_refs_delete_refs() to allow control of transaction

Patrick Steinhardt fbe73f61cb refs: allow passing flags when beginning transactions
We do not currently have any flags when creating reference transactions,
but we'll add one to disable execution of the reference transaction hook
in some cases.

Allow passing flags to `ref_store_transaction_begin()` to prepare for
this change.

Patrick Steinhardt 69840cc0f7 refs: extract packed_refs_delete_refs() to allow control of transaction
When deleting loose refs, then we also have to delete the refs in the
packed backend. This is done by calling `refs_delete_refs()`, which
then uses the packed-backend's logic to delete refs. This doesn't allow
us to exercise any control over the reference transaction which is being
created in the packed backend, which is required in a subsequent commit.

Extract a new function `packed_refs_delete_refs()`, which hosts most of
the logic to delete refs except for creating the transaction itself.
Like this, we can easily create the transaction in the files backend
and thus exert more control over it.

Han-Wen Nienhuys 5b12e16bb1 refs: make errno output explicit for read_raw_ref_fn
This makes it explicit how alternative ref backends should report errors in
read_raw_ref_fn.

read_raw_ref_fn needs to supply a credible errno for a number of cases. These
are primarily:

1) The files backend calls read_raw_ref from lock_raw_ref, and uses the
resulting error codes to create/remove directories as needed.

2) ENOENT should be translated in a zero OID, optionally with REF_ISBROKEN set,
returning the last successfully resolved symref. This is necessary so
read_raw_ref("HEAD") on an empty repo returns refs/heads/main (or the default branch
du-jour), and we know on which branch to create the first commit.

Make this information flow explicit by adding a failure_errno to the signature
of read_raw_ref. All errnos from the files backend are still propagated
unchanged, even though inspection suggests only ENOTDIR, EISDIR and ENOENT are
relevant.

Han-Wen Nienhuys 617480d75b refs: make explicit that ref_iterator_peel returns boolean
Use -1 as error return value throughout.

This removes spurious differences in the GIT_TRACE_REFS output, depending on the
ref storage backend active.

Before, the cached ref_iterator (but only that iterator!) would return
peel_object() output directly. No callers relied on the peel_status values
beyond success/failure. All calls to these functions go through
peel_iterated_oid(), which returns peel_object() as a fallback, but also
squashing the error values.

The iteration interface already passes REF_ISSYMREF and REF_ISBROKEN through the
flags argument, so the additional error values in enum peel_status provide no
value.

The ref iteration interface provides a separate peel() function because certain
formats (eg. packed-refs and reftable) can store the peeled object next to the
tag SHA1. Passing the peeled SHA1 as an optional argument to each_ref_fn maps
more naturally to the implementation of ref databases. Changing the code in this
way is left for a future refactoring.

Sun Chao a613d4f817 pack-refs: always refresh after taking the lock file
When a packed ref is deleted, the whole packed-refs file is
rewritten to omit the ref that no longer exists. However if another
gc command is running and calls `pack-refs --all` simultaneously,
there is a chance that a ref that was just updated lose the newly
created commits.

Through these steps, losing commits on newly updated refs can be
demonstrated:

  # step 1: compile git without `USE_NSEC` option
  Some kernel releases do enable it by default while some do
  not. And if we compile git without `USE_NSEC`, it will be easier
  demonstrated by the following steps.

  # step 2: setup a repository and add the first commit
  git init repo &&
  (cd repo &&
   git config core.logallrefupdates true &&
   git commit --allow-empty -m foo)

  # step 3: in one terminal, repack the refs repeatedly
  cd repo &&
  while true
  do
    git pack-refs --all
  done

  # step 4: in another terminal, simultaneously update the
  # master with update-ref, and create and delete an
  # unrelated ref also with update-ref
  cd repo &&
  while true
  do
    us=$(git commit-tree -m foo -p HEAD HEAD^{tree}) &&
    git update-ref refs/heads/newbranch $us &&
    git update-ref refs/heads/master $us &&
    git update-ref -d refs/heads/newbranch &&
    them=$(git rev-parse master) &&
    if test "$them" != "$us"
    then
      echo >&2 "lost commit: $us"
      exit 1
    fi
    # eye candy
    printf .
  done

Though we have the packed-refs lock file and loose refs lock
files to avoid updating conflicts, a ref will lost its newly
commits if racy stat-validity of `packed-refs` file happens
(which is quite same as the racy-git described in
`Documentation/technical/racy-git.txt`), the following
specific set of operations demonstrates the problem:

  1. Call `pack-refs --all` to pack all the loose refs to
     packed-refs, and let say the modify time of the
     packed-refs is DATE_M.

  2. Call `update-ref` to update a new commit to master while
     it is already packed.  the old value (let us call it
     OID_A) remains in the packed-refs file and write the new
     value (let us call it OID_B) to $GIT_DIR/refs/heads/master.

  3. Call `update-ref -d` within the same DATE_M from the 1th
     step to delete a different ref newbranch which is packed
     in the packed-refs file. It check newbranch's oid from
     packed-refs file without locking it.

     Meanwhile it keeps a snapshot of the packed-refs file in
     memory and record the file's attributes with the snapshot.
     The oid of master in the packed-refs's snapshot is OID_A.

  4. Call a new `pack-refs --all` to pack the loose refs, the
     oid of master in packe-refs file is OID_B, and the loose
     refs $GIT_DIR/refs/heads/master is removed. Let's say
     the `pack-refs --all` is very quickly done and the new
     packed-refs file's modify time is still DATE_M, and it
     has the same file size, even the same inode.

  5. 3th step now goes on after checking the newbranch, it
     begin to rewrite the packed-refs file. After get the
     lock file of packed-ref file, it checks it's on-disk
     file attributes with the snapshot, suck as the timestamp,
     the file size and the inode value. If they are both the
     same values, and the snapshot is not refreshed.

     Because the loose ref of master is removed by 4th step,
     `update-ref -d` will updates the new packed-ref to disk
     which contains master with the oid OID_A. So now the
     newly commit OID_B of master is lost.

The best path forward is just always refreshing after take
the lock file of `packed-refs` file. Traditionally we avoided
that because refreshing it implied parsing the whole file.
But these days we mmap it, so it really is just an extra
open()/mmap() and a quick read of the header. That doesn't seem
like an outrageous cost to pay when we're already taking the lock.

Jeff King 9001dc2a74 convert "oidcmp() != 0" to "!oideq()"
This is the flip side of the previous two patches: checking
for a non-zero oidcmp() can be more strictly expressed as
inequality. Like those patches, we write "!= 0" in the
coccinelle transformation, which covers by isomorphism the
more common:

  if (oidcmp(E1, E2))

As with the previous two patches, this patch can be achieved
almost entirely by running "make coccicheck"; the only
differences are manual line-wrap fixes to match the original
code.

There is one thing to note for anybody replicating this,
though: coccinelle 1.0.4 seems to miss the case in
builtin/tag.c, even though it's basically the same as all
the others. Running with 1.0.7 does catch this, so
presumably it's just a coccinelle bug that was fixed in the
interim.

Jeff King fb9c2d2703 refs: use chdir_notify to update cached relative paths
Commit f57f37e2e1 (files-backend: remove the use of
git_path(), 2017-03-26) introduced a regression when a
relative $GIT_DIR is used in a working tree:

  - when we initialize the ref backend, we make a copy of
    get_git_dir(), which may be relative

  - later, we may call setup_work_tree() and chdir to the
    root of the working tree

  - further calls to the ref code will use the stored git
    directory, but relative paths will now point to the
    wrong place

The new test in t1501 demonstrates one such instance (the
bug causes us to write the ref update to the nonsense
"relative/relative/.git").

Since setup_work_tree() now uses chdir_notify, we can just
ask it update our relative paths when necessary.

Michael Haggerty 01caf20d57 load_contents(): don't try to mmap an empty file
We don't actually create zero-length `packed-refs` files, but they are
valid and we should handle them correctly. The old code `xmmap()`ed
such files, which led to an error when `munmap()` was called. So, if
the `packed-refs` file is empty, leave the snapshot at its zero values
and return 0 without trying to read or mmap the file.

Returning 0 also makes `create_snapshot()` exit early, which avoids
the technically undefined comparison `NULL < NULL`.

We can return an empty iterator not only if the `packed-refs` file is
missing, but also if it is empty or if there are no references whose
names succeed `prefix`. Optimize away those cases as well by moving
the call to `find_reference_location()` higher in the function and
checking whether the determined start position is the same as
`snapshot->eof`. (This is possible now because the previous commit
made `find_reference_location()` robust against empty snapshots.)

Michael Haggerty 7c6bd25c7d files-backend: don't rewrite the packed-refs file unnecessarily
Even when we are deleting references, we needn't overwrite the
`packed-refs` file if the references that we are deleting only exist
as loose references. Implement this optimization as follows:

* Add a function `is_packed_transaction_needed()`, which checks
  whether a given packed-refs transaction actually needs to be carried
  out (i.e., it returns false if the transaction obviously wouldn't
  have any effect). This function must be called while holding the
  `packed-refs` lock to avoid races.

* Change `files_transaction_prepare()` to check whether the
  packed-refs transaction is actually needed. If not, squelch it, but
  continue holding the `packed-refs` lock until the end of the
  transaction to avoid races.

This fixes a mild regression caused by dc39e09942 (files_ref_store:
use a transaction to update packed refs, 2017-09-08). Before that
commit, unnecessary rewrites of `packed-refs` were suppressed by
`repack_without_refs()`. But the transaction-based writing introduced
by that commit didn't perform that optimization.

Note that the pre-dc39e09942 code still had to *read* the whole
`packed-refs` file to determine that the rewrite could be skipped, so
the performance for the cases that the write could be elided was
`O(N)` in the number of packed references both before and after
dc39e09942. But after that commit the constant factor increased.

This commit reimplements the optimization of eliding unnecessary
`packed-refs` rewrites. That, plus the fact that since
cfa2e29c34 (packed_ref_store: get rid of the `ref_cache` entirely,
2017-03-17) we don't necessarily have to read the whole `packed-refs`
file at all, means that deletes of one or a few loose references can
now be done with `O(n lg N)` effort, where `n` is the number of loose
references being deleted and `N` is the total number of packed
references.

This commit fixes two tests in t1409.

We've made huge changes to this file, and some of the old names and
comments are no longer very fitting. So rename a bunch of things:

* `struct packed_ref_cache` → `struct snapshot`
* `acquire_packed_ref_cache()` → `acquire_snapshot()`
* `release_packed_ref_buffer()` → `clear_snapshot_buffer()`
* `release_packed_ref_cache()` → `release_snapshot()`
* `clear_packed_ref_cache()` → `clear_snapshot()`
* `struct packed_ref_entry` → `struct snapshot_record`
* `cmp_packed_ref_entries()` → `cmp_packed_ref_records()`
* `cmp_entry_to_refname()` → `cmp_record_to_refname()`
* `sort_packed_refs()` → `sort_snapshot()`
* `read_packed_refs()` → `create_snapshot()`
* `validate_packed_ref_cache()` → `validate_snapshot()`
* `get_packed_ref_cache()` → `get_snapshot()`
* Renamed local variables and struct members accordingly.

Also update a bunch of comments to reflect the renaming and the
accumulated changes that the code has undergone.

Michael Haggerty 523ee2d785 mmapped_ref_iterator: inline into packed_ref_iterator
Since `packed_ref_iterator` is now delegating to
`mmapped_ref_iterator` rather than `cache_ref_iterator` to do the
heavy lifting, there is no need to keep the two iterators separate. So
"inline" `mmapped_ref_iterator` into `packed_ref_iterator`. This
removes a bunch of boilerplate.
