506ec2fbda midx.c: protect against disappearing packs
When a packed object is stored in a multi-pack index, but that pack has
racily gone away, the MIDX code simply calls die(), when it could be
returning an error to the caller, which would in turn lead to
re-scanning the pack directory.

A pack can racily disappear, for example, due to a simultaneous 'git
repack -ad',

You can also reproduce this with two terminals, where one is running:

    git init
    while true; do
      git commit -q --allow-empty -m foo
      git repack -ad
      git multi-pack-index write
    done

(in effect, constantly writing new MIDXs), and the other is running:

    obj=$(git rev-parse HEAD)
    while true; do
      echo $obj | git cat-file --batch-check='%(objectsize:disk)' || break
    done

That will sometimes hit the error preparing packfile from
multi-pack-index message, which this patch fixes.

Right now, that path to discovering a missing pack looks something like
'find_pack_entry()' calling 'fill_midx_entry()' and eventually making
its way to call 'nth_midxed_pack_entry()'.

'nth_midxed_pack_entry()' already checks 'is_pack_valid()' and
propagates an error if the pack is invalid. So, this works if the pack
has gone away between calling 'prepare_midx_pack()' and before calling
'is_pack_valid()', but not if it disappears before then.

Catch the case where the pack has already disappeared before
'prepare_midx_pack()' by returning an error in that case, too.

18e449f86b midx: enable core.multiPackIndex by default
The core.multiPackIndex setting has been around since c4d25228eb
(config: create core.multiPackIndex setting, 2018-07-12), but has been
disabled by default. If a user wishes to use the multi-pack-index
feature, then they must enable this config and run 'git multi-pack-index
write'.

The multi-pack-index feature is relatively stable now, so make the
config option true by default. For users that do not use a
multi-pack-index, the only extra cost will be a file lookup to see if a
multi-pack-index file exists (once per process, per object directory).

Also, this config option will be referenced by an upcoming
"incremental-repack" task in the maintenance builtin, so move the config
option into the repository settings struct. Note that if
GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX=1, then we want to ignore the config option
and treat core.multiPackIndex as enabled.

59552fb3e2 midx: traverse the local MIDX first
When a repository has an alternate object directory configured, callers
can traverse through each alternate's MIDX by walking the '->next'
pointer.

But, when 'prepare_multi_pack_index_one()' loads multiple MIDXs, it
places the new ones at the front of this pointer chain, not at the end.
This can be confusing for callers such as 'git repack -ad', causing test
failures like in t7700.6 with 'GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX=1'.

The occurs when dropping a pack known to the local MIDX with alternates
configured that have their own MIDX. Since the alternate's MIDX is
returned via 'get_multi_pack_index()', 'midx_contains_pack()' returns
true (which is correct, since it traverses through the '->next' pointer
to find the MIDX in the chain that does contain the requested object).
But, we call 'clear_midx_file()' on 'the_repository', which drops the
MIDX at the path of the first MIDX in the chain, which (in the case of
t7700.6 is the one in the alternate).

This patch addresses that by:

  - placing the local MIDX first in the chain when calling
    'prepare_multi_pack_index_one()', and

  - introducing a new 'get_local_multi_pack_index()', which explicitly
    returns the repository-local MIDX, if any.

Don't impose an additional order on the MIDX's '->next' pointer beyond
that the first item in the chain must be local if one exists so that we
avoid a quadratic insertion.

Likewise, use 'get_local_multi_pack_index()' in
'remove_redundant_pack()' to fix the formerly broken t7700.6 when run
with 'GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX=1'.

Finally, note that the MIDX ordering invariant is only preserved by the
insertion order in 'prepare_packed_git()', which traverses through the
ODB's '->next' pointer, meaning we visit the local object store first.
This fragility makes this an undesirable long-term solution if more
callers are added, but it is acceptable for now since this is the only
caller.

d96075428a multi-pack-index: use hash version byte
Similar to the commit-graph format, the multi-pack-index format has a
byte in the header intended to track the hash version used to write the
file. This allows one to interpret the hash length without having the
context of the repository config specifying the hash length. This was
not modified as part of the SHA-256 work because the hash length was
automatically up-shifted due to that config.

Since we have this byte available, we can make the file formats more
obviously incompatible instead of relying on other context from the
repository.

Add a new oid_version() method in midx.c similar to the one in
commit-graph.c. This is specifically made separate from that
implementation to avoid artificially linking the formats.

The test impact requires a few more things than the corresponding change
in the commit-graph format. Specifically, 'test-tool read-midx' was not
writing anything about this header value to output. Since the value
available in 'struct multi_pack_index' is hash_len instead of a version
value, we output "20" or "32" instead of "1" or "2".

Since we want a user to not have their Git commands fail if their
multi-pack-index has the incorrect hash version compared to the
repository's hash version, we relax the die() to an error() in
load_multi_pack_index(). This has some effect on 'git multi-pack-index
verify' as we need to check that a failed parse of a file that exists is
actually a verify error. For that test that checks the hash version
matches, we change the corrupted byte from "2" to "3" to ensure the test
fails for both hash algorithms.

d5e1961c19 stop calling UNLEAK() before die()
The point of UNLEAK() is to make a reference to a variable that is about
to go out of scope so that leak-checkers will consider it to be
not-leaked. Doing so right before die() is therefore pointless; even
though we are about to exit the program, the variable will still be on
the stack and accessible to leak-checkers.

These annotations aren't really hurting anything, but they clutter the
code and set a bad example of how to use UNLEAK().

1eb22c7dd8 multi-pack-index: repack batches below --batch-size
The --batch-size=<size> option of 'git multi-pack-index repack' is
intended to limit the amount of work done by the repack. In the case of
a large repository, this command should repack a number of small
pack-files but leave the large pack-files alone. Most often, the
repository has one large pack-file from a 'git clone' operation and
number of smaller pack-files from incremental 'git fetch' operations.

The issue with '--batch-size' is that it also _prevents_ the repack from
happening if the expected size of the resulting pack-file is too small.
This was intended as a way to avoid frequent churn of small pack-files,
but it has mostly caused confusion when a repository is of "medium"
size. That is, not enormous like the Windows OS repository, but also not
so small that this incremental repack isn't valuable.

The solution presented here is to collect pack-files for repack if their
expected size is smaller than the batch-size parameter until either the
total expected size exceeds the batch-size or all pack-files are
considered. If there are at least two pack-files, then these are
combined to a new pack-file whose size should not be too much larger
than the batch-size.

This new strategy should succeed in keeping the number of pack-files
small in these "medium" size repositories. The concern about churn is
likely not interesting, as the real control over that is the frequency
in which the repack command is run.

c972bf4cf5 strvec: convert remaining callers away from argv_array name
We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec
consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once,
or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits.
Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable
to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different
names is OK).

This patch converts all of the remaining files, as the resulting diff is
reasonably sized.

The conversion was done purely mechanically with:

  git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' |
  xargs perl -i -pe '
    s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g;
    s/argv_array/strvec/g;
  '

3ce4ca0a56 multi-pack-index: respect repack.packKeptObjects=false
When selecting a batch of pack-files to repack in the "git
multi-pack-index repack" command, Git should respect the
repack.packKeptObjects config option. When false, this option says that
the pack-files with an associated ".keep" file should not be repacked.
This config value is "false" by default.

There are two cases for selecting a batch of objects. The first is the
case where the input batch-size is zero, which specifies "repack
everything". The second is with a non-zero batch size, which selects
pack-files using a greedy selection criteria. Both of these cases are
updated and tested.

e11d86de13 midx: teach "git multi-pack-index repack" honor "git repack" configurations
When the "repack" subcommand of "git multi-pack-index" command

Check the configuration variables used by "git repack" ourselves
in "git multi-index-pack" and pass the corresponding options to
underlying "git pack-objects".

Note that `repack.writeBitmaps` configuration is ignored, as the
pack bitmap facility is useful only with a single packfile.

796d61cdc0 midx.c: fix an integer underflow
When verifying a midx index with 0 objects, the

and also that we don't write any midx when there is no packfiles.

Update the tests to check that `git multi-pack-index write` does
not write an midx when there is no objects, and another to check
that `git multi-pack-index verify` warns when it verifies an midx with no
objects. For this last test, use t5319/no-objects.midx which was

0763671b8e nth_packed_object_oid(): use customary integer return
Our nth_packed_object_sha1() function returns NULL for error. So when we
wrapped it with nth_packed_object_oid(), we kept the same semantics. But
it's a bit funny, because the caller actually passes in an out
parameter, and the pointer we return is just that same struct they
passed to us (or NULL).

It's not too terrible, but it does make the interface a little
non-idiomatic. Let's switch to our usual "0 for success, negative for
error" return value. Most callers either don't check it, or are
trivially converted. The one that requires the biggest change is
actually improved, as we can ditch an extra aliased pointer variable.

Since we are changing the interface in a subtle way that the compiler
wouldn't catch, let's also change the name to catch any topics in
flight. We can drop the 'o' and make it nth_packed_object_id(). That's
slightly shorter, but also less redundant since the 'o' stands for
"object" already.

ce1e4a105b midx: implement midx_repack()
To repack with a non-zero batch-size, first sort all pack-files by
their modified time. Second, walk those pack-files from oldest
to newest, compute their expected size, and add the packs to a list
if they are smaller than the given batch-size. Stop when the total
expected size is at least the batch size.

If the batch size is zero, select all packs in the multi-pack-index.

Finally, collect the objects from the multi-pack-index that are in
the selected packs and send them to 'git pack-objects'. Write a new
multi-pack-index that includes the new pack.

Using a batch size of zero is very similar to a standard 'git repack'
command, except that we do not delete the old packs and instead rely
on the new multi-pack-index to prevent new processes from reading the
old packs. This does not disrupt other Git processes that are currently
reading the old packs based on the old multi-pack-index.

While first designing a 'git multi-pack-index repack' operation, I
started by collecting the batches based on the actual size of the
objects instead of the size of the pack-files. This allows repacking
a large pack-file that has very few referencd objects. However, this
came at a significant cost of parsing pack-files instead of simply
reading the multi-pack-index and getting the file information for
the pack-files. The "expected size" version provides similar
behavior, but could skip a pack-file if the average object size is
much larger than the actual size of the referenced objects, or
can create a large pack if the actual size of the referenced objects
is larger than the expected size.

2af890bb28 multi-pack-index: prepare 'repack' subcommand
In an environment where the multi-pack-index is useful, it is due
to many pack-files and an inability to repack the object store
into a single pack-file. However, it is likely that many of these
pack-files are rather small, and could be repacked into a slightly
larger pack-file without too much effort. It may also be important
to ensure the object store is highly available and the repack
operation does not interrupt concurrent git commands.

Introduce a 'repack' subcommand to 'git multi-pack-index' that
takes a '--batch-size' option. The subcommand will inspect the
multi-pack-index for referenced pack-files whose size is smaller
than the batch size, until collecting a list of pack-files whose
sizes sum to larger than the batch size. Then, a new pack-file
will be created containing the objects from those pack-files that
are referenced by the multi-pack-index. The resulting pack is
likely to actually be smaller than the batch size due to
compression and the fact that there may be objects in the pack-
files that have duplicate copies in other pack-files.

The current change introduces the command-line arguments, and we
add a test that ensures we parse these options properly. Since
we specify a small batch size, we will guarantee that future
implementations do not change the list of pack-files.

In addition, we hard-code the modified times of the packs in
the pack directory to ensure the list of packs sorted by modified
time matches the order if sorted by size (ascending). This will
be important in a future test.

The 'git multi-pack-index expire' subcommand looks at the existing
mult-pack-index, counts the number of objects referenced in each
pack-file, deletes the pack-fils with no referenced objects, and
rewrites the multi-pack-index to no longer reference those packs.

Refactor the write_midx_file() method to call write_midx_internal()
which now takes an existing 'struct multi_pack_index' and a list
of pack-files to drop (as specified by the names of their pack-
indexes). As we write the new multi-pack-index, we drop those
file names from the list of known pack-files.

The expire_midx_packs() method removes the unreferenced pack-files
after carefully closing the packs to avoid open handles.

Test that a new pack-file that covers the contents of two other
pack-files leads to those pack-files being deleted during the
expire subcommand. Be sure to read the multi-pack-index to ensure
it no longer references those packs.

d01bf2e609 midx: refactor permutation logic and pack sorting
In anticipation of the expire subcommand, refactor the way we sort
the packfiles by name. This will greatly simplify our approach to
dropping expired packs from the list.

First, create 'struct pack_info' to replace 'struct pack_pair'.
This struct contains the necessary information about a pack,
including its name, a pointer to its packfile struct (if not
already in the multi-pack-index), and the original pack-int-id.

Second, track the pack information using an array of pack_info
structs in the pack_list struct. This simplifies the logic around
the multiple arrays we were tracking in that struct.

Finally, update get_sorted_entries() to not permute the pack-int-id
and instead supply the permutation to write_midx_object_offsets().
This requires sorting the packs after get_sorted_entries().

dba6175c64 midx: simplify computation of pack name lengths
Before writing the multi-pack-index, we compute the length of the
pack-index names concatenated together. This forms the data in the
pack name chunk, and we precompute it to compute chunk offsets.
The value is also modified to fit alignment needs.

Previously, this computation was coupled with adding packs from
the existing multi-pack-index and the remaining packs in the object
dir not already covered by the multi-pack-index.

In anticipation of this becoming more complicated with the 'expire'
subcommand, simplify the computation by centralizing it to a single
loop before writing the file.

cff9711616 multi-pack-index: prepare for 'expire' subcommand
The multi-pack-index tracks objects in a collection of pack-files.
Only one copy of each object is indexed, using the modified time
of the pack-files to determine tie-breakers. It is possible to
have a pack-file with no referenced objects because all objects
have a duplicate in a newer pack-file.

Introduce a new 'expire' subcommand to the multi-pack-index builtin.
This subcommand will delete these unused pack-files and rewrite the
multi-pack-index to no longer refer to those files. More details
about the specifics will follow as the method is implemented.

Add a test that verifies the 'expire' subcommand is correctly wired,
but will still be valid when the verb is implemented. Specifically,
create a set of packs that should all have referenced objects and
should not be removed during an 'expire' operation. The packs are
created carefully to ensure they have a specific order when sorted
by size. This will be important in a later test.

af96fe3392 midx: add packs to packed_git linked list
The multi-pack-index allows searching for objects across multiple
packs using one object list. The original design gains many of
these performance benefits by keeping the packs in the
multi-pack-index out of the packed_git list.

Unfortunately, this has one major drawback. If the multi-pack-index
covers thousands of packs, and a command loads many of those packs,
then we can hit the limit for open file descriptors. The
close_one_pack() method is used to limit this resource, but it
only looks at the packed_git list, and uses an LRU cache to prevent
thrashing.

Instead of complicating this close_one_pack() logic to include
direct references to the multi-pack-index, simply add the packs
opened by the multi-pack-index to the packed_git list. This
immediately solves the file-descriptor limit problem, but requires
some extra steps to avoid performance issues or other problems:

1. Create a multi_pack_index bit in the packed_git struct that is
   one if and only if the pack was loaded from a multi-pack-index.

2. Skip packs with the multi_pack_index bit when doing object
   lookups and abbreviations. These algorithms already check the
   multi-pack-index before the packed_git struct. This has a very
   small performance hit, as we need to walk more packed_git
   structs. This is acceptable, since these operations run binary
   search on the other packs, so this walk-and-ignore logic is
   very fast by comparison.

3. When closing a multi-pack-index file, do not close its packs,
   as those packs will be closed using close_all_packs(). In some
   cases, such as 'git repack', we run 'close_midx()' without also
   closing the packs, so we need to un-set the multi_pack_index bit
   in those packs. This is necessary, and caught by running
   t6501-freshen-objects.sh with GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX=1.

To manually test this change, I inserted trace2 logging into
close_pack_fd() and set pack_max_fds to 10, then ran 'git rev-list
--all --objects' on a copy of the Git repo with 300+ pack-files and
a multi-pack-index. The logs verified the packs are closed as
we read them beyond the file descriptor limit.

64404a24cf midx: pass a repository pointer
Much of the multi-pack-index code focuses on the multi_pack_index
struct, and so we only pass a pointer to the current one. However,
we will insert a dependency on the packed_git linked list in a
future change, so we will need a repository reference. Inserting
these parameters is a significant enough change to split out.

013fd7ada3 midx: check both pack and index names for containment
A midx file (and the struct we parse from it) contains a list of all of
the covered packfiles, mentioned by their ".idx" names (e.g.,
"pack-1234.idx", etc). And thus calls to midx_contains_pack() expect
callers to provide the idx name.

This works for most of the calls, but the one in open_packed_git_1()
tries to feed a packed_git->pack_name, which is the ".pack" name,
meaning we'll never find a match (even if the pack is covered by the
midx).

We can fix this by converting the ".pack" to ".idx" in the caller.
However, that requires allocating a new string. Instead, let's make
midx_contains_pack() a bit friendlier, and allow it take _either_ the
.pack or .idx variant.

All cleverness in the matching code is credited to René. Bugs are mine.

There's no test here, because while this does fix _a_ bug, it's masked
by another bug in that same caller. That will be covered (with a test)
in the next patch.

5ae18df9d8 midx: during verify group objects by packfile to speed verification
Teach `multi-pack-index verify` to sort the set of object by
packfile so that only one packfile needs to be open at a time.

This is a performance improvement.  Previously, objects were
verified in OID order.  This essentially requires all packfiles
to be open at the same time.  If the number of packfiles exceeds
the open file limit, packfiles would be LRU-closed and re-opened
many times.
