The semantics used when parsing notes trees (with regards to fanout subtrees)
follow Dscho's proposal fairly closely:
- No concatenation/merging of notes is performed. If there are several notes
objects referencing a given commit, only one of those objects are used.
- If a notes object for a given commit is present in the "root" notes tree,
no subtrees are consulted; the object in the root tree is used directly.
- If there are more than one subtree that prefix-matches the given commit,
only the subtree with the longest matching prefix is consulted. This
means that if the given commit is e.g. "deadbeef", and the notes tree have
subtrees "de" and "dead", then the following paths in the notes tree are
searched: "deadbeef", "dead/beef". Note that "de/adbeef" is NOT searched.
- Fanout directories (subtrees) must references a whole number of bytes
from the SHA1 sum they subdivide. E.g. subtrees "dead" and "de" are
acceptable; "d" and "dea" are not.
- Multiple levels of fanout are allowed. All the above rules apply
recursively. E.g. "de/adbeef" is preferred over "de/adbe/ef", etc.
This patch changes the in-memory datastructure for holding parsed notes:
Instead of holding all note (and subtree) entries in a hash table, a
simple 16-tree structure is used instead. The tree structure consists of
16-arrays as internal nodes, and note/subtree entries as leaf nodes. The
tree is traversed by indexing subsequent nibbles of the search key until
a leaf node is encountered. If a subtree entry is encountered while
searching for a note, the subtree is unpacked into the 16-tree structure,
and the search continues into that subtree.
The new algorithm performs significantly better in the cases where only
a fraction of the notes need to be looked up (this is assumed to be the
common case for notes lookup). The new code even performs marginally
better in the worst case (where _all_ the notes are looked up).
In addition to this, comes the massive performance win associated with
organizing the notes tree according to some fanout scheme. Even a simple
2/38 fanout scheme is dramatically quicker to traverse (going from tens of
seconds to sub-second runtimes).
As for memory usage, the new code is marginally better than the old code in
the worst case, but in the case of looking up only some notes from a notes
tree with proper fanout, the new code uses only a small fraction of the
memory needed to hold the entire notes tree.
However, there is one casualty of this patch. The old notes lookup code was
able to parse notes that were associated with non-SHA1s (e.g. refs). The new
code requires the referenced object to be named by a SHA1 sum. Still, this
is not considered a major setback, since the notes infrastructure was not
originally intended to annotate objects outside the Git object database.
