When traverse_commit_list() processes each commit, it queues the
commit's root tree in the pending array. Then, after all commits are
processed, it calls traverse_trees_and_blobs() to walk over the pending
list, calling process_tree() on each. But if revs->tree_objects is not
set, process_tree() just exists immediately!

We can save ourselves some work by not even bothering to queue these
trees in the first place. There are a few subtle points to make:

  - we also detect commits with a NULL tree pointer here. But this isn't
    an interesting check for broken commits, since the lookup_tree()
    we'd have done during commit parsing doesn't actually check that we
    have the tree on disk. So we're not losing any robustness.

  - besides queueing, we also set the NOT_USER_GIVEN flag on the tree
    object. This is used by the traverse_commit_list_filtered() variant.
    But if we're not exploring trees, then we won't actually care about
    this flag, which is used only inside process_tree() code-paths.

  - queueing trees eventually leads to us queueing blobs, too. But we
    don't need to check revs->blob_objects here. Even in the current
    code, we still wouldn't find those blobs, because we'd never open up
    the tree objects to list their contents.

  - the user-visible impact to the caller is minimal. The pending trees
    are all cleared by the time the function returns anyway, by
    traverse_trees_and_blobs(). We do call a show_commit() callback,
    which technically could be looking at revs->pending during the
    callback. But it seems like a rather unlikely thing to do (if you
    want the tree of the current commit, then accessing the tree struct
    member is a lot simpler).

So this should be safe to do. Let's look at the benefits:

  [before]
  Benchmark #1: git -C linux rev-list HEAD >/dev/null
    Time (mean ± σ):      7.651 s ±  0.021 s    [User: 7.399 s, System: 0.252 s]
    Range (min … max):    7.607 s …  7.683 s    10 runs

  [after]
  Benchmark #1: git -C linux rev-list HEAD >/dev/null
    Time (mean ± σ):      7.593 s ±  0.023 s    [User: 7.329 s, System: 0.264 s]
    Range (min … max):    7.565 s …  7.634 s    10 runs

Not too impressive, but then we're really just avoiding sticking a
pointer into a growable array. But still, I'll take a free 0.75%
speedup.

Let's try it after running "git commit-graph write":

  [before]
  Benchmark #1: git -C linux rev-list HEAD >/dev/null
    Time (mean ± σ):      1.458 s ±  0.011 s    [User: 1.199 s, System: 0.259 s]
    Range (min … max):    1.447 s …  1.481 s    10 runs

  [after]
  Benchmark #1: git -C linux rev-list HEAD >/dev/null
    Time (mean ± σ):      1.126 s ±  0.023 s    [User: 896.5 ms, System: 229.0 ms]
    Range (min … max):    1.106 s …  1.181 s    10 runs

Now that's more like it. We saved over 22% of the total time. Part of
that is because the runtime is shorter overall, but the absolute
improvement is also much larger. What's going on?

When we fill in a commit struct using the commit graph, we don't bother
to set the tree pointer, and instead lazy-load it when somebody calls
get_commit_tree(). So we're not only skipping the pointer write to the
pending queue, but we're skipping the lazy-load of the tree entirely.

Commit 43d3561 (commit-graph write: don't die if the existing graph
is corrupt, 2019-03-25) added an environment variable we use only in the
test suite, $GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH_DIE_ON_LOAD. But it put the check for
this variable at the very top of prepare_commit_graph(), which is called
every time we want to use the commit graph. Most importantly, it comes
_before_ we check the fast-path "did we already try to load?", meaning
we end up calling getenv() for every single use of the commit graph,
rather than just when we load.

getenv() is allowed to have unexpected side effects, but that shouldn't
be a problem here; we're lazy-loading the graph so it's clear that at
least _one_ invocation of this function is going to call it.

But it is inefficient. getenv() typically has to do a linear search
through the environment space.

We could memoize the call, but it's simpler still to just bump the check
down to the actual loading step. That's fine for our sole user in t5318,
and produces this minor real-world speedup:

  [before]
  Benchmark #1: git -C linux rev-list HEAD >/dev/null
    Time (mean ± σ):      1.460 s ±  0.017 s    [User: 1.174 s, System: 0.285 s]
    Range (min … max):    1.440 s …  1.491 s    10 runs

  [after]
  Benchmark #1: git -C linux rev-list HEAD >/dev/null
    Time (mean ± σ):      1.391 s ±  0.005 s    [User: 1.118 s, System: 0.273 s]
    Range (min … max):    1.385 s …  1.399 s    10 runs

Of course that actual speedup depends on how big your environment is. We
can game it like this:

  for i in $(seq 10000); do
    export dummy$i=$i
  done

in which case I get:

  [before]
  Benchmark #1: git -C linux rev-list HEAD >/dev/null
    Time (mean ± σ):      6.257 s ±  0.061 s    [User: 6.005 s, System: 0.250 s]
    Range (min … max):    6.174 s …  6.337 s    10 runs

  [after]
  Benchmark #1: git -C linux rev-list HEAD >/dev/null
  Time (mean ± σ):      1.403 s ±  0.005 s    [User: 1.146 s, System: 0.256 s]
  Range (min … max):    1.396 s …  1.412 s    10 runs

So this is really more about avoiding the pathological case than
providing a big real-world speedup.

…ev()

In 'builtin/name-rev.c' in the name_rev() function there is a loop
iterating over all parents of the given commit, and the loop body
looks like this:

  if (parent_number > 1) {
      if (generation > 0)
          // branch #1
          new_name = ...
      else
          // branch #2
          new_name = ...
      name_rev(parent, new_name, ...);
  } else {
      // branch #3
      name_rev(...);
  }

These conditions are not covered properly in the test suite.  As far
as purely test coverage goes, they are all executed several times over
in 't6120-describe.sh'.  However, they don't directly influence the
command's output, because the repository used in that test script
contains several branches and tags pointing somewhere into the middle
of the commit DAG, and thus result in a better name for the
to-be-named commit.  This can hide bugs: e.g. by replacing the
'new_name' parameter of the first recursive name_rev() call with
'tip_name' (effectively making both branch #1 and #2 a noop) 'git
name-rev --all' shows thousands of bogus names in the Git repository,
but the whole test suite still passes successfully.  In an early
version of a later patch in this series I managed to mess up all three
branches (at once!), but the test suite still passed.

So add a new test case that operates on the following history:

  A--------------master
   \            /
    \----------M2
     \        /
      \---M1-C
       \ /
        B

and names the commit 'B' to make sure that all three branches are
crucial to determine 'B's name:

  - There is only a single ref, so all names are based on 'master',
    without any undesired interference from other refs.

  - Each time name_rev() follows the second parent of a merge commit,
    it appends "^2" to the name.  Following 'master's second parent
    right at the start ensures that all commits on the ancestry path
    from 'master' to 'B' have a different base name from the original
    'tip_name' of the very first name_rev() invocation.  Currently,
    while name_rev() is recursive, it doesn't matter, but it will be
    necessary to properly cover all three branches after the recursion
    is eliminated later in this series.

  - Following 'M2's second parent makes sure that branch #2 (i.e. when
    'generation = 0') affects 'B's name.

  - Following the only parent of the non-merge commit 'C' ensures that
    branch #3 affects 'B's name, and that it increments 'generation'.

  - Coming from 'C' 'generation' is 1, thus following 'M1's second
    parent makes sure that branch #1 affects 'B's name.

Recent versions of the gcc and clang Address Sanitizer produce test
failures related to regexec(). This triggers with gcc-10 and clang-8
(but not gcc-9 nor clang-7). Running:

  make CC=gcc-10 SANITIZE=address test

results in failures in t4018, t3206, and t4062.

The cause seems to be that when built with ASan, we use a different
version of regexec() than normal. And this version doesn't understand
the REG_STARTEND flag. Here's my evidence supporting that.

The failure in t4062 is an ASan warning:

  expecting success of 4062.2 '-G matches':
  	git diff --name-only -G "^(0{64}){64}$" HEAD^ >out &&
  	test 4096-zeroes.txt = "$(cat out)"

      [...]

In this case we're looking in a buffer which was mmap'd via
reuse_worktree_file(), and whose size is 4096 bytes. But libasan's
regex tries to look at byte 4097 anyway! If we tweak Git like this:

  diff --git a/diff.c b/diff.c
  index 8e2914c031..cfae60c120 100644

          return 0;

to use a regular buffer (with a trailing NUL) instead of an mmap, then
the complaint goes away.

The other failures are actually diff output with an incorrect funcname

then when compiling with ASan and gcc-10, running the diff from t4018.66
produces this:

  $ git diff -U1 cpp-skip-access-specifiers

  +       int IWasChanged;

That first regex should match (and is negated, so it should be telling
us _not_ to match "private:"). But it wouldn't if regexec() is looking
at the whole buffer, and not just the length-limited line we've fed to
regexec_buf(). So this is consistent again with REG_STARTEND being
ignored.

The correct output (compiling without ASan, or gcc-9 with Asan) looks
like this:

  warning: regexec matched:
    regex: ^[     ]*[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z_0-9]*:[[:space:]]*($|/[/*])

So it really does seem like libasan's regex engine is ignoring
REG_STARTEND. We should be able to work around it by compiling with
NO_REGEX, which would use our local regexec(). But to make matters even
more interesting, this isn't enough by itself.

Because ASan has support from the compiler, it doesn't seem to intercept
our call to regexec() at the dynamic library level. It actually
recognizes when we are compiling a call to regexec() and replaces it
with ASan-specific code at that point. And unlike most of our other
compat code, where we might have git_mmap() or similar, the actual
symbol name in the compiled compat/regex code is regexec(). So just
compiling with NO_REGEX isn't enough; we still end up in libasan!

We can work around that by having the preprocessor replace regexec with
git_regexec (both in the callers and in the actual implementation), and
we truly end up with a call to our custom regex code, even when
compiling with ASan. That's probably a good thing to do anyway, as it
means anybody looking at the symbols later (e.g., in a debugger) would
have a better indication of which function is which. So we'll do the
same for the other common regex functions (even though just regexec() is
enough to fix this ASan problem).

The commit slab commit_rev_name contains a pointer to a struct rev_name,
and the actual struct is allocated separatly.  Avoid that allocation and
pointer indirection by storing the full struct in the commit slab.  Use
the tip_name member pointer to determine if the returned struct is
initialized.

name_rev() assigns a name to a commit and its parents and grandparents
and so on.  Commits share their name string with their first parent,
which in turn does the same, recursively to the root.  That saves a lot
of allocations.  When a better name is found, the old name is replaced,
but its memory is not released.  That leakage can become significant.

Can we release these old strings exactly once even though they are
referenced multiple times?  Yes, indeed -- we can make use of the fact
that name_rev() visits the ancestors of a commit after it set a new name
for it and tries to update their names as well.

Members of the first ancestral line have the same taggerdate and
from_tag values, but a higher distance value than their child commit at
generation 0.  These are the only criteria used by is_better_name().
Lower distance values are considered better, so a name that is better
for a child will also be better for its parent and grandparent etc.

That means we can free(3) an inferior name at generation 0 and rely on
name_rev() to replace all references in ancestors as well.

If we do that then we need to stop using the string pointer alone to
distinguish new empty rev_name slots from initialized ones, though, as
it technically becomes invalid after the free(3) call -- even though its
value is still different from NULL.

We can check the generation value first, as empty slots will have it
initialized to 0, and for the actual generation 0 we'll set a new valid
name right after the create_or_update_name() call that releases the
string.

For the Chromium repo, releasing superceded names reduces the memory
footprint of name-rev --all significantly.  Here's the output of GNU
time before:

0.98user 0.48system 0:01.46elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2601812maxresident)k

  Time (mean ± σ):      1.338 s ±  0.006 s    [User: 1.047 s, System: 0.291 s]
  Range (min … max):    1.327 s …  1.346 s    10 runs

For the Linux repo it doesn't pay off; memory usage only gets down from:

0.76user 0.03system 0:00.80elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 292848maxresident)k
0inputs+0outputs (0major+44579minor)pagefaults 0swaps

0inputs+0outputs (0major+44892minor)pagefaults 0swaps

The runtime actually increases slightly from:

Benchmark #1: ./git -C ../linux/ name-rev --all
  Time (mean ± σ):     828.8 ms ±   5.0 ms    [User: 797.2 ms, System: 31.6 ms]
  Range (min … max):   824.1 ms … 838.9 ms    10 runs

... to:

Benchmark #1: ./git -C ../linux/ name-rev --all
  Time (mean ± σ):     847.6 ms ±   3.4 ms    [User: 807.9 ms, System: 39.6 ms]
  Range (min … max):   843.4 ms … 854.3 ms    10 runs

Why is that?  In the Chromium repo, ca. 44000 free(3) calls in
create_or_update_name() release almost 1GB, while in the Linux repo
240000+ calls release a bit more than 5MB, so the average discarded
name is ca.  1000x longer in the latter.

Overall I think it's the right tradeoff to make, as it helps curb the
memory usage in repositories with big discarded names, and the added
overhead is small.

name_ref() is called for each ref and checks if its a better name for
the referenced commit.  If that's the case it remembers it and checks if
a name based on it is better for its ancestors as well.  This in done in
the the order for_each_ref() imposes on us.

That might not be optimal.  If bad names happen to be encountered first
(as defined by is_better_name()), names derived from them may spread to
a lot of commits, only to be replaced by better names later.  Setting
better names first can avoid that.

is_better_name() prefers tags, short distances and old references.  The
distance is a measure that we need to calculate for each candidate
commit, but the other two properties are not dependent on the
relationships of commits.  Sorting the refs by them should yield better
performance than the essentially random order we currently use.

And applying older references first should also help to reduce rework
due to the fact that older commits have less ancestors than newer ones.

So add all details of names to the tip table first, then sort them
to prefer tags and older references and then apply them in this order.
Here's the performance as measures by hyperfine for the Linux repo
before:

Benchmark #1: ./git -C ../linux/ name-rev --all
  Time (mean ± σ):     851.1 ms ±   4.5 ms    [User: 806.7 ms, System: 44.4 ms]
  Range (min … max):   845.9 ms … 859.5 ms    10 runs

... and with this patch:

Benchmark #1: ./git -C ../linux/ name-rev --all
  Time (mean ± σ):     736.2 ms ±   8.7 ms    [User: 688.4 ms, System: 47.5 ms]
  Range (min … max):   726.0 ms … 755.2 ms    10 runs

While we iterate over all entries of the Chunk Lookup table we make
sure that we don't attempt to read past the end of the mmap-ed
commit-graph file, and check in each iteration that the chunk ID and
offset we are about to read is still within the mmap-ed memory region.
However, these checks in each iteration are not really necessary,
because the number of chunks in the commit-graph file is already known
before this loop from the just parsed commit-graph header.

So let's check that the commit-graph file is large enough for all
entries in the Chunk Lookup table before we start iterating over those
entries, and drop those per-iteration checks.  While at it, take into
account the size of everything that is necessary to have a valid
commit-graph file, i.e. the size of the header, the size of the
mandatory OID Fanout chunk, and the size of the signature in the
trailer as well.

Note that this necessitates the change of the error message as well,
and, consequently, have to update the 'detect incorrect chunk count'
test in 't5318-commit-graph.sh' as well.

In write_commit_graph_file() one block of code fills the array of
chunk IDs, another block of code fills the array of chunk offsets,
then the chunk IDs and offsets are written to the Chunk Lookup table,
and finally a third block of code writes the actual chunks.  In case
of optional chunks like Extra Edge List and Base Graphs List there is
also a condition checking whether that chunk is necessary/desired, and
that same condition is repeated in all those three blocks of code.
This patch series is about to add more optional chunks, so there would
be even more repeated conditions.

Those chunk offsets are relative to the beginning of the file, so they
inherently depend on the size of the Chunk Lookup table, which in turn
depends on the number of chunks that are to be written to the
commit-graph file.  IOW at the time we set the first chunk's ID we
can't yet know its offset, because we don't yet know how many chunks
there are.

Simplify this by initially filling an array of chunk sizes, not
offsets, and calculate the offsets based on the chunk sizes only
later, while we are writing the Chunk Lookup table.  This way we can
fill the arrays of chunk IDs and sizes in one go, eliminating one set
of repeated conditions.

Our put_be32() routine and its variants (get_be32(), put_be64(), etc)
has two implementations: on some platforms we cast memory in place and
use nothl()/htonl(), which can cause unaligned memory access. And on
others, we pick out the individual bytes using bitshifts.

This introduces extra complexity, and sometimes causes compilers to
generate warnings about type-punning. And it's not clear there's any
performance advantage.

This split goes back to 660231a (block-sha1: support for
architectures with memory alignment restrictions, 2009-08-12). The
unaligned versions were part of the original block-sha1 code in
d7c208a (Add new optimized C 'block-sha1' routines, 2009-08-05),
which says it is:

   Based on the mozilla SHA1 routine, but doing the input data accesses a
   word at a time and with 'htonl()' instead of loading bytes and shifting.

Back then, Linus provided timings versus the mozilla code which showed a
27% improvement:

  https://lore.kernel.org/git/alpine.LFD.2.01.0908051545000.3390@localhost.localdomain/

However, the unaligned loads were either not the useful part of that
speedup, or perhaps compilers and processors have changed since then.
Here are times for computing the sha1 of 4GB of random data, with and
without -DNO_UNALIGNED_LOADS (and BLK_SHA1=1, of course). This is with
gcc 10, -O2, and the processor is a Core i9-9880H.

  [stock]
  Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand
    Time (mean ± σ):      6.638 s ±  0.081 s    [User: 6.269 s, System: 0.368 s]
    Range (min … max):    6.550 s …  6.841 s    10 runs

  [-DNO_UNALIGNED_LOADS]
  Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand
    Time (mean ± σ):      6.418 s ±  0.015 s    [User: 6.058 s, System: 0.360 s]
    Range (min … max):    6.394 s …  6.447 s    10 runs

And here's the same test run on an AMD A8-7600, using gcc 8.

  [stock]
  Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand
    Time (mean ± σ):     11.721 s ±  0.113 s    [User: 10.761 s, System: 0.951 s]
    Range (min … max):   11.509 s … 11.861 s    10 runs

  [-DNO_UNALIGNED_LOADS]
  Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand
    Time (mean ± σ):     11.744 s ±  0.066 s    [User: 10.807 s, System: 0.928 s]
    Range (min … max):   11.637 s … 11.863 s    10 runs

So the unaligned loads don't seem to help much, and actually make things
worse. It's possible there are platforms where they provide more
benefit, but:

  - the non-x86 platforms for which we use this code are old and obscure
    (powerpc and s390).

  - the main caller that cares about performance is block-sha1. But
    these days it is rarely used anyway, in favor of sha1dc (which is
    already much slower, and nobody seems to have cared that much).

Let's just drop unaligned versions entirely in the name of simplicity.

Test 5572.63 ("branch has no merge base with remote-tracking
counterpart") was introduced in 4d36f88 (submodule: do not pass null
OID to setup_revisions, 2018-05-24), as a regression test for the bug
this commit was fixing (preventing a 'fatal: bad object' error when the
current branch and the remote-tracking branch we are pulling have no
merge-base).

However, the commit message for 4d36f88 does not describe in which
real-life situation this bug was encountered. The brief discussion on the
mailing list [1] does not either.

The regression test is not really representative of a real-life
scenario: both the local repository and its upstream have only a single
commit, and the "no merge-base" scenario is simulated by recreating this
root commit in the local repository using 'git commit-tree' before
calling 'git pull --rebase --recurse-submodules'. The rebase succeeds
and results in the local branch being reset to the same root commit as
the upstream branch.

The fix in 4d36f88 modifies 'submodule.c::submodule_touches_in_range'
so that if 'excl_oid' is null, which is the case when the 'git merge-base
--fork-point' invocation in 'builtin/pull.c::get_rebase_fork_point'
errors (no fork-point), then instead of 'incl_oid --not excl_oid' being
passed to setup_revisions, only 'incl_oid' is passed, and
'submodule_touches_in_range' examines 'incl_oid' and all its ancestors
to verify that they do not touch the submodule.

In test 5572.63, the recreated lone root commit in the local repository is
thus the only commit being examined by 'submodule_touches_in_range', and
this commit *adds* the submodule. However, 'submodule_touches_in_range'
*succeeds* because 'combine-diff.c::diff_tree_combined' (see the
backtrace below) returns early since this commit is the root commit
and has no parents.

  #0  diff_tree_combined at combine-diff.c:1494
  #1  0x0000000100150cbe in diff_tree_combined_merge at combine-diff.c:1649
  #2  0x00000001002c7147 in collect_changed_submodules at submodule.c:869

  #4  0x00000001000ad58b in cmd_pull at builtin/pull.c:1040

In light of all this, add a note in t5572 documenting this peculiar
test.
