Re: [PATCH 3/3] packfile: close_all_packs to close_object_store

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Stolee,

*really* minor nit: the commit subject probably wants to have a "rename"
after the colon ;-)

The patch looks sensible to me. Since Junio asked for a sanity check
whether all of the call sites of `close_all_packs()` actually want to
close the MIDX and the commit graph, too, I'll do the "speak out loud"
type of patch review here (spoiler: all of them check out):

Here, we run `git gc --auto`, so we obviously really want to close all
read handles.

Check.

Here, we prepare for disassociating the reference repository specified via
`git clone --reference <directory>`. Obviously, we need to let go of all
the handles we might have open there.

Check.

Again, a `git gc --auto` that needs closing of all read handles to the
files that might be overwritten by the garbage collection.

Check.

Here, we want to repack. AFAICT it is the only sane thing we can do to
invalidate whatever we read from the object store into memory.

Check.

This wants to delete a number of files that are now obsolete, and it makes
sense to make sure that there are no open read handles to those anymore.
It is a bit unclear from just reading the code what types of files are
accumulated into the `pack_garbage` string list, but then, we're in the
last throngs of a garbage collection, and *just* about to write a new
commit graph (if `gc.writeCommitGraph=true`), so I think it is quite okay
to close not only the packs here, but everything we opened from the object
store.

So I'd give this a check mark, too.

Obviously yet another `git gc --auto`, so yes, we need to close the object
store handles we have.

Check.

Yet another `git gc --auto`.

Check.

This `proc` refers to another `git gc --auto` (see a couple lines above,
still within the hunk).

Check.

Ah, the joys of un-dynamic patch review. What you, dear reader, cannot see
in this hunk is that the code comment at the end continues thusly:

         * First see if there are packs of the same name and if so
         * if we can move them out of the way (this can happen if we
         * repacked immediately after packing fully.
         */

Meaning: we're about to rename some pack files. So the pack file handles
need to be closed, all right, but what about the other object store
handles? There is no mention of the commit graph (more on that below), but
the loop following the code comment contains this:

                        if (!midx_cleared) {
                                clear_midx_file(the_repository);
                                midx_cleared = 1;
                        }

So yes, I would give this a check.

It does puzzle me, I have to admit, that there is no (opt-in) code block
to re-write the commit graph. After all, the commit graph references the
pack files, right? So if they are repacked, it would at least be
invalidated at this point...

We're in the middle of a function called `raw_object_store_clear()`. So...

Check.

And this concludes my review.
