[PATCH v8 00/10] packfile: avoid using the 'the_repository' global variable

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

 



The `packfile.c` file uses the global variable 'the_repository' extensively
throughout the code. Let's remove all usecases of this, by modifying the
required functions to accept a 'struct repository' instead. This is to clean up
usage of global state.

The first 3 patches are mostly internal to `packfile.c`, we add the repository
field to the `packed_git` struct and this is used to clear up some useages of
the global variables.

The next 3 patches are more disruptive, they modify the function definition of
`odb_pack_name`, `has_object[_kept]_pack` and `for_each_packed_object` to receive
a repository, helping remove other usages of 'the_repository' variable.

Finally, the next two patches deal with global config values. These values are
localized. The last patch is removal of an unecessary call to `prepare_packed_git()`.
For v5 onwards, I've rebased the series off the master: 8f8d6eee53 (The
seventh batch, 2024-11-01), as a dependency for this series 'jk/dumb-http-finalize'
was merged to master. I've found no conflicts while merging with seen & next. But
since this series does touch multiple files, there could be future conflicts.

Changes in v8:
- Fix typos in comments
- For packfile.c use delta_base_cache_limit from the repository
settings, this avoids loading the config in hot paths.
- Rename `longval` to `ulongval` to better signify the type.

Changes in v7:
- Cleanup stale commit message.
- Add missing space in `if` statement.
- Fix typo s/incase/in case/.

Changes in v6:
- Lazy load repository settings in packfile.c. This ensures that the settings are
available for sure and we do not rely on callees setting it.
- Use `size_t` for `delta_base_cache_limit`.

Changes in v5:
- Move packed_git* settings to repo_settings to ensure we don't keep reparsing the
settings in `use_pack`.

Changes in v4:
- Renamed the repository field within `packed_git` and `multi_pack_index` from
`r` to `repo`, while keeping function parameters to be `r`.
- Fixed bad braces.

Changes in v3:
- Improved commit messages. In the first commit to talk about how packed_git
struct could also be part of the alternates of a repository. In the 7th commit
to talk about the motive behind removing the global variable.
- Changed 'packed_git->repo' to 'packed_git->r' to keep it consistent with the
rest of the code base.
- Replaced 'the_repository' with locally available access to the repository
struct in multiple regions.
- Removed unecessary inclusion of the 'repository.h' header file by forward
declaring the 'repository' struct.
- Replace memcpy with hashcpy.
- Change the logic in the 7th patch to use if else statements.
- Added an extra commit to cleanup `pack-bitmap.c`.

    @@ Commit message
     
         The `delta_base_cache_limit` variable is a global config variable used
         by multiple subsystems. Let's make this non-global, by adding this
    -    variable to the stack of each of the subsystems where it is used.
    +    variable independently to the subsystems where it is used.
     
    -    In `gc.c` we add it to the `gc_config` struct and also the constructor
    -    function. In `index-pack.c` we add it to the `pack_idx_option` struct
    -    and its constructor. Finally, in `packfile.c` we dynamically retrieve
    -    this value from the repository config, since the value is only used once
    -    in the entire subsystem.
    +    First, add the setting to the `repo_settings` struct, this provides
    +    access to the config in places where the repository is available. Use
    +    this in `packfile.c`.
    +
    +    In `index-pack.c` we add it to the `pack_idx_option` struct and its
    +    constructor. While the repository struct is available here, it may not
    +    be set  because `git index-pack` can be used without a repository.
    +
    +    In `gc.c` add it to the `gc_config` struct and also the constructor
    +    function. The gc functions currently do not have direct access to a
    +    repository struct.
     
         These changes are made to remove the usage of `delta_base_cache_limit`
         as a global variable in `packfile.c`. This brings us one step closer to
