Add a rather trivial "spatchcache", with this running e.g.: make cocciclean make contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch \ SPATCH=contrib/coccicheck/spatchcache \ SPATCH_FLAGS=--very-quiet Is cut down from ~20s to ~5s on my system. Much of that is either fixable shell overhead, or the around 40 files we "CANTCACHE" (see the implementation). This uses "redis" as a cache by default, but it's configurable. See the embedded documentation. This is *not* like ccache in that we won't cache failed spatch invocations, or those where spatch suggests changes for us. Those cases are so rare that I didn't think it was worth the bother, by far the most common case is that it has no suggested changes. We'll also refuse to cache any "spatch" invocation that has output on stderr, which means that "--very-quiet" must be added to "SPATCH_FLAGS". Because we narrow the cache to that we don't need to save away stdout, stderr & the exit code. We simply cache the cases where we had no suggested changes. Another benchmark is to compare this with the previous SPATCH_BATCH_SIZE=N, as noted in [1]. Before this (on my 8 core system) running: make clean; time make contrib/coccinelle/array.cocci.patch SPATCH_BATCH_SIZE=0 Would take 33s, but with the preceding changes running without this "spatchcache" is slightly slower, or around 35s: make clean; time make contrib/coccinelle/array.cocci.patch Now doing the same with SPATCH=contrib/coccinelle/spatchcache will take around 6s, but we'll need to compile the *.o files first to take full advantage of it (which can be fast with "ccache"): make clean; make; time make contrib/coccinelle/array.cocci.patch SPATCH=contrib/coccinelle/spatchcache 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/YwdRqP1CyUAzCEn2@coredump.intra.peff.net/ Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com> |

Contributed Software Although these pieces are available as part of the official git source tree, they are in somewhat different status. The intention is to keep interesting tools around git here, maybe even experimental ones, to give users an easier access to them, and to give tools wider exposure, so that they can be improved faster. I am not expecting to touch these myself that much. As far as my day-to-day operation is concerned, these subdirectories are owned by their respective primary authors. I am willing to help if users of these components and the contrib/ subtree "owners" have technical/design issues to resolve, but the initiative to fix and/or enhance things _must_ be on the side of the subtree owners. IOW, I won't be actively looking for bugs and rooms for enhancements in them as the git maintainer -- I may only do so just as one of the users when I want to scratch my own itch. If you have patches to things in contrib/ area, the patch should be first sent to the primary author, and then the primary author should ack and forward it to me (git pull request is nicer). This is the same way as how I have been treating gitk, and to a lesser degree various foreign SCM interfaces, so you know the drill. I expect that things that start their life in the contrib/ area to graduate out of contrib/ once they mature, either by becoming projects on their own, or moving to the toplevel directory. On the other hand, I expect I'll be proposing removal of disused and inactive ones from time to time. If you have new things to add to this area, please first propose it on the git mailing list, and after a list discussion proves there are some general interests (it does not have to be a list-wide consensus for a tool targeted to a relatively narrow audience -- for example I do not work with projects whose upstream is svn, so I have no use for git-svn myself, but it is of general interest for people who need to interoperate with SVN repositories in a way git-svn works better than git-svnimport), submit a patch to create a subdirectory of contrib/ and put your stuff there. -jc
