trace_repo_setup() of trace.c is called with the argument 'prefix' from
only one location, run_builtin of git.c, which sets 'prefix' to the return
value of setup_git_directory() or setup_git_directory_gently() (a wrapper
of the former).
Now that "prefix" is in startup_info there is no need for the parameter
of trace_repo_setup() because setup_git_directory() sets "startup_info->prefix"
to the same value it returns. It would be less confusing to use "prefix"
from startup_info instead of passing it as an argument.

Remove the "else" branches of the HAVE_VARIADIC_MACROS macro, which
have been unconditionally omitted since 765dc16888 (git-compat-util:
always enable variadic macros, 2021-01-28).
Since were always omitted, anyone trying to use a compiler without
variadic macro support to compile a git since version
git v2.31.0 or later would have had a compilation error. 10 months
across a few releases since then should have been enough time for
anyone who cared to run into that and report the issue.
In addition to that, for anyone unsetting HAVE_VARIADIC_MACROS we've
been emitting extremely verbose warnings since at least
ee4512ed48 (trace2: create new combined trace facility,
2019-02-22). That's because there is no such thing as a
"region_enter_printf" or "region_leave_printf" format, so at least
under GCC and Clang everything that includes trace.h (almost every
file) emits a couple of warnings about that.
There's a large benefit to being able to have a hard dependency rely
on variadic macros, the code surrounding usage.c is hard to maintain
if we need to write two implementations of everything, and by relying
on "__FILE__" and "__LINE__" along with "__VA_ARGS__" we can in the
future make error(), die() etc. log where they were called from. We've
also recently merged d67fc4bf0b (Merge branch 'bc/require-c99',
2021-12-10) which further cements our hard dependency on C99.
So let's delete the fallback code, and update our CodingGuidelines to
note that we depend on this. The added bullet-point starts with
lower-case for consistency with other bullet-points in that section.
The diff in "trace.h" is relatively hard to read, since we need to
retain the existing API docs, which were comments on the code used if
HAVE_VARIADIC_MACROS was not defined.

Long ago, in 97bfeb34df (Release pack windows before reporting out of
memory., 2006-12-24), we taught xmalloc() and friends to try unmapping
pack windows when malloc() failed. It's unlikely that his helps a lot in
practice, and it has some downsides. First, the downsides:
1. It makes xmalloc() not thread-safe. We've worked around this in
pack-objects.c, which installs its own locking version of the
try_to_free_routine(). But other threaded code doesn't.
2. It makes the system as a whole harder to reason about. Functions
which allocate heap memory under the hood may have farther-reaching
effects than expected.
That might be worth the tradeoff if there's a benefit. But in practice,
it seems unlikely. We're generally dealing with mmap'd files, so the OS
is going to do a much better job at responding to memory pressure by
dropping individual pages (the exception is systems with NO_MMAP, but
even there the OS can probably respond just as well with swapping).
So the only thing we're really freeing is address space. On 64-bit
systems, we have plenty of that to go around. On 32-bit systems, it
could possibly help. But around the same time we made two other changes:
77ccc5bbd1 (Introduce new config option for mmap limit., 2006-12-23) and
60bb8b1453 (Fully activate the sliding window pack access., 2006-12-23).
Together that means that a 32-bit system should have no more than 256MB
total of packed-git mmaps at one time, split between a few 32MB windows.
It's unlikely we have any address space problems since then, but we
don't have any data since the features were all added at the same time.
Likewise, xmmap() will try to free memory. At first glance, it seems
like we'd need this (when we try to mmap a new window, we might need to
close an old one to save address space on a 32-bit system). But we're
saved again by core.packedGitLimit: if we're going to exceed our 256MB
limit, we'll close an existing window before we even call mmap().
So it seems unlikely that this feature is actually doing anything
useful. And while we don't have reports of it harming anything (probably
because it rarely if ever kicks in), it would be nice to simplify the
system overall. This patch drops the whole try_to_free system from
xmalloc(), as well as the manual pack memory release in xmmap().

Performance measurements are listed right now as a flat list, which is
fine when we measure big blocks. But when we start adding more and
more measurements, some of them could be just part of a bigger
measurement and a flat list gives a wrong impression that they are
executed at the same level instead of nested.
Add trace_performance_enter() and trace_performance_leave() to allow
indent these nested measurements. For now it does not help much
because the only nested thing is (lazy) name hash initialization
(e.g. called in diff-index from "git status"). This will help more
because I'm going to add some more tracing that's actually nested.

Let's avoid the quoting if there are no characters which a

- the shell language is a good ballpark for what humans
consider readable (well, humans versed in command line
tools)
- the run_command bits can be cut-and-pasted to a shell,

- it covers any cases which would make the output

If the trace code cannot open a specified file, or does not
understand the contents of the GIT_TRACE variable, it falls
back to printing trace output to stderr.
This is an attempt to be helpful, but in practice it just
ends up annoying. The user was trying to get the output to
go somewhere else, so spewing it to stderr does not really
accomplish that. And as it's intended for debugging, they
can presumably re-run the command with their error
corrected.
So instead of falling back, this patch disables bogus trace
keys for the rest of the program, just as we do for write
errors. We can drop the "Defaulting to..." part of the error
message entirely; after seeing "cannot open '/foo'", the
user can assume that tracing is skipped.

If we get a write error writing to a trace descriptor, the

you'll just get the same error over and over. E.g., try:
GIT_TRACE_PACKET=42 git ls-remote >/dev/null
You don't really need to see:
warning: unable to write trace for GIT_TRACE_PACKET: Bad file descriptor
hundreds of times. We could fallback to tracing to stderr,
as we do in the error code-path for open(), but there's not
much point. If the user fed us a bogus descriptor, they're
probably better off fixing their invocation. And if they
didn't, and we saw a transient error (e.g., ENOSPC writing

based on a filename the user put in the variable (we do
complain and switch to stderr if the file cannot be opened,

While we're here, let's also downcase the first letter of

advice (since we're already using multiple lines, one more
doesn't hurt).
We also replace "What does 'foo' for GIT_TRACE mean?". While
cute, it's probably a good idea to give more context, and

Right now we just fprintf() straight to stderr, which can
make the output hard to distinguish. It would be helpful to
give it one of our usual prefixes like "error:", "warning:",
etc.
It doesn't make sense to use error() here, as the trace code
is "optional" debugging code. If something goes wrong, we
should warn the user, but saying "error" implies the actual
git operation had a problem. So warning() is the only sane
choice.
Note that this does end up calling warn_routine() to do the
formatting. This is probably a good thing, since they are
clearly trying to hook messages before they make it to
stderr. However, it also means that in theory somebody who
tries to trace from their warn_routine() could cause a loop.
This seems rather unlikely in practice (we've never even
overridden the default warn_builtin routine before, and
recent discussions to do so would just install a noop
routine).

The write_or_whine_pipe function does two things:
1. it checks for EPIPE and converts it into a signal death
2. it prints a message to stderr on error
The first thing does not help us, and actively hurts.
Generally we would simply die from SIGPIPE in this case,
unless somebody has taken the time to ignore SIGPIPE for the
whole process. And if they _did_ do that, it seems rather
silly for the trace code, which otherwise takes pains to
continue even in the face of errors (e.g., by not using
write_or_die!), to take down the whole process for one
specific type of error.
Nor does the second thing help us; it just makes it harder
to write our error message, because we have to feed bits of
it as an argument to write_or_whine_pipe(). Translators
never get to see the full message, and it's hard for us to
customize it.
Let's switch to just using write_in_full() and writing our
own error string. For now, the error is identical to what
write_or_whine_pipe() would say, but now that it's more
under our control, we can improve it in future patches.

When we output GIT_TRACE_SETUP paths, we quote any

PATH_MAX bytes, and we could double the size of the input
path (if every character needs quoting). We could use a

than PATH_MAX. But it's easier still to just switch to a
strbuf and not worry about whether the input can exceed
PATH_MAX or not.

both. Since this gets rid of "p1", let's also drop "p2",

When debugging the pack protocol, it is sometimes useful to
store the verbatim pack that we sent or received on the
wire. Looking at the on-disk result is often not helpful for
a few reasons:
1. If the operation is a clone, we destroy the repo on
failure, leaving nothing on disk.
2. If the pack is small, we unpack it immediately, and the
full pack never hits the disk.
3. If we feed the pack to "index-pack --fix-thin", the
resulting pack has the extra delta bases added to it.
We already have a GIT_TRACE_PACKET mechanism for tracing
packets. Let's extend it with GIT_TRACE_PACKFILE to dump the
verbatim packfile.
There are a few other positive fallouts that come from
rearranging this code:
- We currently disable the packet trace after seeing the
PACK header, even though we may get human-readable lines
on other sidebands; now we include them in the trace.
- We currently try to print "PACK ..." in the trace to
indicate that the packfile has started. But because we
disable packet tracing, we never printed this line. We
will now do so.

Use trace_performance to measure and print execution time and command line

utility, which measures total time of the parent process, this logs all
involved git commands recursively. This is particularly useful to debug
performance issues of scripted commands (i.e. which git commands were
called with which parameters, and how long did they execute).
Due to git's deliberate use of exit(), the implementation uses an atexit

main().

Add trace_performance and trace_performance_since macros that print a

environment variable GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE.
These macros, in conjunction with getnanotime(), are intended to simplify
performance measurements from within the application (i.e. profiling via
manual instrumentation, rather than using an external profiling tool).
Unless enabled via GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE, these macros have no noticeable
impact on performance, so that test code for well known time killers may
be shipped in release builds. Alternatively, a developer could provide an
additional performance patch (not meant for master) that allows reviewers
to reproduce performance tests more easily, e.g. on other platforms or
using their own repositories.
Usage examples:
Simple use case (measure one code section):
uint64_t start = getnanotime();
/* code section to measure */
trace_performance_since(start, "foobar");
Complex use case (measure repetitive code sections):
uint64_t t = 0;
for (;;) {
/* ignore */
t -= getnanotime();
/* code section to measure */
t += getnanotime();
/* ignore */
}

Add a getnanotime() function that returns nanoseconds since 01/01/1970 as
unsigned 64-bit integer (i.e. overflows in july 2554). This is easier to
work with than e.g. struct timeval or struct timespec. Basing the timer on
the epoch allows using the results with other time-related APIs.
To simplify adaption to different platforms, split the implementation into
a common getnanotime() and a platform-specific highres_nanos() function.
The common getnanotime() function handles errors, falling back to
gettimeofday() if highres_nanos() isn't implemented or doesn't work.
getnanotime() is also responsible for normalizing to the epoch. The offset
to the system clock is calculated only once on initialization, i.e.
manually setting the system clock has no impact on the timer (except if
the fallback gettimeofday() is in use). Git processes are typically short
lived, so we don't need to handle clock drift.
The highres_nanos() function returns monotonically increasing nanoseconds
relative to some arbitrary point in time (e.g. system boot), or 0 on
failure. Providing platform-specific implementations should be relatively
easy, e.g. adapting to clock_gettime() as defined by the POSIX realtime
extensions is seven lines of code.
This version includes highres_nanos() implementations for:
* Linux: using clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC)
* Windows: using QueryPerformanceCounter()
Todo:
* enable clock_gettime() on more platforms
* add Mac OSX version, e.g. using mach_absolute_time + mach_timebase_info

This is useful to see where trace output came from.
Add 'const char *file, int line' parameters to the printing functions and
rename them to *_fl.
Add trace_printf* and trace_strbuf macros resolving to the *_fl functions
and let the preprocessor fill in __FILE__ and __LINE__.
As the trace_printf* functions take a variable number of arguments, this
requires variadic macros (i.e. '#define foo(...) foo_impl(__VA_ARGS__)'.
Though part of C99, it is unclear whether older compilers support this.
Thus keep the old functions and only enable variadic macros for GNUC and
MSVC 2005+ (_MSC_VER 1400). This has the nice side effect that the old
C-style declarations serve as documentation how the macros are to be used.

output at column 40 to accommodate 18 char file names + 4 digit line

output such as timestamps and line numbers are not useful there.
Disable additional trace output if GIT_TRACE_BARE is set.

To be able to add a common prefix or suffix to all trace output (e.g.
a timestamp or file:line of the caller), factor out common setup and
cleanup tasks of the trace* functions.
When adding a common prefix, it makes sense that the output of each trace
call starts on a new line. Add '\n' in case the caller forgot.
Note that this explicitly limits trace output to line-by-line, it is no
longer possible to trace-print just part of a line. Until now, this was
just an implicit assumption (trace-printing part of a line worked, but
messed up the trace file if multiple threads or processes were involved).
Thread-safety / inter-process-safety is also the reason why we need to do
the prefixing and suffixing in memory rather than issuing multiple write()
calls. Write_or_whine_pipe() / xwrite() is atomic unless the size exceeds
MAX_IO_SIZE (8MB, see wrapper.c). In case of trace_strbuf, this costs an
additional string copy (which should be irrelevant for performance in light
of actual file IO).
While we're at it, rename trace_strbuf's 'buf' argument, which suggests
that the function is modifying the buffer. Trace_strbuf() currently is the
only trace API that can print arbitrary binary data (without barfing on
'%' or stopping at '\0'), so 'data' seems more appropriate.

The trace API currently rechecks the environment variable and reopens the
trace file on every API call. This has the ugly side effect that errors
(e.g. file cannot be opened, or the user specified a relative path) are
also reported on every call. Performance can be improved by about factor
three by remembering the environment state and keeping the file open.
Replace the 'const char *key' parameter in the API with a pointer to a
'struct trace_key' that bundles the environment variable name with
additional, trace-internal state. Change the call sites of these APIs to
use a static 'struct trace_key' instead of a string constant.
In trace.c::get_trace_fd(), save and reuse the file descriptor in 'struct
trace_key'.
Add a 'trace_disable()' API, so that packet_trace() can cleanly disable
tracing when it encounters packed data (instead of using unsetenv()).

trace_printf_key() is the only non-static function that duplicates the
printf format attribute in the .c file, remove it for consistency.

The format parameter to trace_printf functions is sometimes abbreviated
'fmt'. Rename to 'format' everywhere (consistent with POSIX' printf
specification).
