If pack-objects hit the memory limit, it deletes objects from the delta window. This patch make it only delete the data, which is recomputed, if needed again. Signed-off-by: Martin Koegler <mkoegler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- What about this not really tested patch for dealing with memory pressure in git-pack-objects? It will slow down the repack in the case of memory pressure, but missing memory will not affect the results. builtin-pack-objects.c | 13 +++++++++++-- 1 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/builtin-pack-objects.c b/builtin-pack-objects.c index 6f8f388..231d65f 100644 --- a/builtin-pack-objects.c +++ b/builtin-pack-objects.c @@ -1464,7 +1464,7 @@ static unsigned int check_delta_limit(struct object_entry *me, unsigned int n) return m; } -static unsigned long free_unpacked(struct unpacked *n) +static unsigned long free_unpacked_data(struct unpacked *n) { unsigned long freed_mem = sizeof_delta_index(n->index); free_delta_index(n->index); @@ -1474,6 +1474,12 @@ static unsigned long free_unpacked(struct unpacked *n) free(n->data); n->data = NULL; } + return freed_mem; +} + +static unsigned long free_unpacked(struct unpacked *n) +{ + unsigned long freed_mem = free_unpacked_data(n); n->entry = NULL; n->depth = 0; return freed_mem; @@ -1514,7 +1520,7 @@ static void find_deltas(struct object_entry **list, unsigned *list_size, mem_usage > window_memory_limit && count > 1) { uint32_t tail = (idx + window - count) % window; - mem_usage -= free_unpacked(array + tail); + mem_usage -= free_unpacked_data(array + tail); count--; } @@ -1547,6 +1553,9 @@ static void find_deltas(struct object_entry **list, unsigned *list_size, if (!m->entry) break; ret = try_delta(n, m, max_depth, &mem_usage); + if (window_memory_limit && + mem_usage > window_memory_limit) + mem_usage -= free_unpacked_data(m); if (ret < 0) break; else if (ret > 0) -- 1.5.4.g42f90 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
