grep: un-break building with PCRE >= 8.32 without --enable-jit Amend my change earlier in this series ("grep: add support for the PCRE v1 JIT API", 2017-04-11) to un-break the build on PCRE v1 versions later than 8.31 compiled without --enable-jit. As explained in that change and a later compatibility change in this series ("grep: un-break building with PCRE < 8.32", 2017-05-10) the pcre_jit_exec() function is a faster path to execute the JIT. Unfortunately there's no compatibility stub for that function compiled into the library if pcre_config(PCRE_CONFIG_JIT, &ret) would return 0, and no macro that can be used to check for it, so the only portable option to support builds without --enable-jit is via a new NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT=UnfortunatelyYes Makefile option[1]. Another option would be to make the JIT opt-in via USE_LIBPCRE1_JIT=YesPlease, after all it's not a default option of PCRE v1. I think it makes more sense to make it opt-out since even though it's not a default option, most packagers of PCRE seem to turn it on by default, with the notable exception of the MinGW package. Make the MinGW platform work by default by changing the build defaults to turn on NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT=UnfortunatelyYes. It is the only platform that turns on USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease by default, see commit df5218b4c3 ("config.mak.uname: support MSys2", 2016-01-13) for that change. 1.

grep: add support for the PCRE v1 JIT API Change the grep PCRE v1 code to use JIT when available. When PCRE support was initially added in commit 63e7e9d8b6 ("git-grep: Learn PCRE", 2011-05-09) PCRE had no JIT support, it was integrated into 8.20 released on 2011-10-21. Enabling JIT support usually improves performance by more than 40%. The pattern compilation times are relatively slower, but those relative numbers are tiny, and are easily made back in all but the most trivial cases of grep.

E.g. defining PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE to 0 if it's not present. The implementation is relatively verbose because even if PCRE_CONFIG_JIT is defined only a call to pcre_config() can determine if the JIT is available, and if so the faster pcre_jit_exec() function should be called instead of pcre_exec(), and a different (but not complimentary!) function needs to be called to free pcre1_extra_info. There's no graceful fallback if pcre_jit_stack_alloc() fails under PCRE_CONFIG_JIT, instead the program will simply abort. I don't think this is worth handling gracefully, it'll only fail in cases where malloc() doesn't work, in which case we're screwed anyway. That there's no assignment of `p->pcre1_jit_on = 0` when PCRE_CONFIG_JIT isn't defined isn't a bug. The create_grep_pat() function allocates the grep_pat allocates it with calloc(), so it's guaranteed to be 0 when PCRE_CONFIG_JIT isn't defined. I you're bisecting and find this change, check that your PCRE isn't older than 8.32. This change intentionally broke really old versions of PCRE, but that's fixed in follow-up commits.

grep: add support for PCRE v2 Add support for v2 of the PCRE API. This is a new major version of PCRE that came out in early 2015[1]. The regular expression syntax is the same, but while the API is similar, pretty much every function is either renamed or takes different arguments. Thus using it via entirely new functions makes sense, as opposed to trying to e.g. have one compile_pcre_pattern() that would call either PCRE v1 or v2 functions. Git can now be compiled with either USE_LIBPCRE1=YesPlease or USE_LIBPCRE2=YesPlease, with USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease currently being a synonym for the former. Providing both is a compile-time error. With earlier patches to enable JIT for PCRE v1 the performance of the release versions of both libraries is almost exactly the same, with PCRE v2 being around 1% slower. However after I reported this to the pcre-dev mailing list[2] I got a lot of help with the API use from Zoltán Herczeg, he subsequently optimized some of the JIT functionality in v2 of the library. Running the p7820-grep-engines.sh performance test against the latest Subversion trunk of both, with both them and git compiled as -O3, and the test run against linux.git, gives the following results. Just the /perl/ tests shown: $ GIT_PERF_REPEAT_COUNT=30 GIT_PERF_LARGE_REPO=~/g/linux GIT_PERF_MAKE_COMMAND='grep -q LIBPCRE2 Makefile && make -j8 USE_LIBPCRE2=YesPlease CC=~/perl5/installed/bin/gcc NO_R_TO_GCC_LINKER=YesPlease CFLAGS=-O3 LIBPCREDIR=/home/avar/g/pcre2/inst LDFLAGS=-Wl,-rpath,/home/avar/g/pcre2/inst/lib || make -j8 USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease CC=~/perl5/installed/bin/gcc NO_R_TO_GCC_LINKER=YesPlease CFLAGS=-O3 LIBPCREDIR=/home/avar/g/pcre/inst LDFLAGS=-Wl,-rpath,/home/avar/g/pcre/inst/lib' ./run HEAD~5 HEAD~ HEAD p7820-grep-engines.sh [...] Test HEAD~5 HEAD~ HEAD ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7820.3: perl grep 'how.to' 0.31(1.10+0.48) 0.21(0.35+0.56) -32.3% 0.21(0.34+0.55) -32.3% 7820.7: perl grep '^how to' 0.56(2.70+0.40) 0.24(0.64+0.52) -57.1% 0.20(0.28+0.60) -64.3% 7820.11: perl grep '[how] to' 0.56(2.66+0.38) 0.29(0.95+0.45) -48.2% 0.23(0.45+0.54) -58.9% 7820.15: perl grep '(e.t[^ ]*|v.ry) rare' 1.02(5.77+0.42) 0.31(1.02+0.54) -69.6% 0.23(0.50+0.54) -77.5% 7820.19: perl grep 'm(ú|u)lt.b(æ|y)te' 0.38(1.57+0.42) 0.27(0.85+0.46) -28.9% 0.21(0.33+0.57) -44.7% See commit ("perf: add a comparison test of grep regex engines", 2017-04-19) for details on the machine the above test run was executed on. Here HEAD~2 is git with PCRE v1 without JIT, HEAD~ is PCRE v1 with JIT, and HEAD is PCRE v2 (also with JIT). See previous commits of mine mentioning p7820-grep-engines.sh for more details on the test setup. For ease of readability, a different run just of HEAD~ (PCRE v1 with JIT v.s. PCRE v2), again with just the /perl/ tests shown: [...] Test HEAD~ HEAD ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7820.3: perl grep 'how.to' 0.21(0.42+0.52) 0.21(0.31+0.58) +0.0% 7820.7: perl grep '^how to' 0.25(0.65+0.50) 0.20(0.31+0.57) -20.0% 7820.11: perl grep '[how] to' 0.30(0.90+0.50) 0.23(0.46+0.53) -23.3% 7820.15: perl grep '(e.t[^ ]*|v.ry) rare' 0.30(1.19+0.38) 0.23(0.51+0.51) -23.3% 7820.19: perl grep 'm(ú|u)lt.b(æ|y)te' 0.27(0.84+0.48) 0.21(0.34+0.57) -22.2% I.e. the two are either neck-to-neck, but PCRE v2 usually pulls ahead, when it does it's around 20% faster. A brief note on thread safety: As noted in pcre2api(3) & pcre2jit(3) the compiled pattern can be shared between threads, but not some of the JIT context, however the grep threading support does all pattern & JIT compilation in separate threads, so this code doesn't need to concern itself with thread safety. See commit 63e7e9d8b6 ("git-grep: Learn PCRE", 2011-05-09) for the initial addition of PCRE v1. This change follows some of the same patterns it did (and which were discussed on list at the time), e.g. mocking up types with typedef instead of ifdef-ing them out when USE_LIBPCRE2 isn't defined. This adds some trivial memory use to the program, but makes the code look nicer. 1. https://lists.exim.org/lurker/message/20150105.162835.0666407a.en.html 2. https://lists.exim.org/lurker/thread/20170419.172322.833ee099.en.html Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

As a side effect of using kwset two grep tests are fixed by this patch. The first is fixed because kwset can deal with case-insensitive search containing NULs, something strcasestr cannot do. The second one is fixed because we consider patterns containing NULs as fixed strings (regcomp cannot accept patterns with NULs).

log --author/--committer: really match only with name part When we tried to find commits done by AUTHOR, the first implementation tried to pattern match a line with "^author .*AUTHOR", which later was enhanced to strip leading caret and look for "^author AUTHOR" when the search pattern was anchored at the left end (i.e. --author="^AUTHOR"). This had a few problems: * When looking for fixed strings (e.g. "git log -F --author=x --grep=y"), the regexp internally used "^author .*x" would never match anything; * To match at the end (e.g. "git log --author='google.com>$'"), the generated regexp has to also match the trailing timestamp part the commit header lines have. Also, in order to determine if the '$' at the end means "match at the end of the line" or just a literal dollar sign (probably backslash-quoted), we would need to parse the regexp ourselves. An earlier alternative tried to make sure that a line matches "^author " (to limit by field name) and the user supplied pattern at the same time. While it solved the -F problem by introducing a special override for matching the "^author ", it did not solve the trailing timestamp nor tail match problem. It also would have matched every commit if --author=author was asked for, not because the author's email part had this string, but because every commit header line that talks about the author begins with that field name, regardleses of who wrote it. Instead of piling more hacks on top of hacks, this rethinks the grep machinery that is used to look for strings in the commit header, and makes sure that (1) field name matches literally at the beginning of the line, followed by a SP, and (2) the user supplied pattern is matched against the remainder of the line, excluding the trailing timestamp data.

When PCRE support was initially added in commit 63e7e9d8b6 ("git-grep: Learn PCRE", 2011-05-09) PCRE had no JIT support, it was integrated into 8.20 released on 2011-10-21. Enabling JIT support usually improves performance by more than 40%. The pattern compilation times are relatively slower, but those relative numbers are tiny, and are easily made back in all but the most trivial cases of grep. Detailed benchmarks & overview of compilation times is at: http://sljit.sourceforge.net/pcre.html With this change the difference in a t/perf/p7820-grep-engines.sh run is, with just the /perl/ tests shown: $ GIT_PERF_REPEAT_COUNT=30 GIT_PERF_LARGE_REPO=~/g/linux GIT_PERF_MAKE_OPTS='-j8 USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease CC=~/perl5/installed/bin/gcc NO_R_TO_GCC_LINKER=YesPlease CFLAGS=-O3 LIBPCREDIR=/home/avar/g/pcre/inst LDFLAGS=-Wl,-rpath,/home/avar/g/pcre/inst/lib' ./run HEAD~ HEAD p7820-grep-engines.sh Test HEAD~ HEAD --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7820.3: perl grep 'how.to' 0.35(1.11+0.43) 0.23(0.42+0.46) -34.3% 7820.7: perl grep '^how to' 0.64(2.71+0.36) 0.27(0.66+0.44) -57.8% 7820.11: perl grep '[how] to' 0.63(2.51+0.42) 0.33(0.98+0.39) -47.6% 7820.15: perl grep '(e.t[^ ]*|v.ry) rare' 1.17(5.61+0.35) 0.34(1.08+0.46) -70.9% 7820.19: perl grep 'm(ú|u)lt.b(æ|y)te' 0.43(1.52+0.44) 0.30(0.88+0.42) -30.2% The conditional support for JIT is implemented as suggested in the pcrejit(3) man page. E.g. defining PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE to 0 if it's not present. The implementation is relatively verbose because even if PCRE_CONFIG_JIT is defined only a call to pcre_config() can determine if the JIT is available, and if so the faster pcre_jit_exec() function should be called instead of pcre_exec(), and a different (but not complimentary!) function needs to be called to free pcre1_extra_info. There's no graceful fallback if pcre_jit_stack_alloc() fails under PCRE_CONFIG_JIT, instead the program will simply abort. I don't think this is worth handling gracefully, it'll only fail in cases where malloc() doesn't work, in which case we're screwed anyway. That there's no assignment of `p->pcre1_jit_on = 0` when PCRE_CONFIG_JIT isn't defined isn't a bug. The create_grep_pat() function allocates the grep_pat allocates it with calloc(), so it's guaranteed to be 0 when PCRE_CONFIG_JIT isn't defined. I you're bisecting and find this change, check that your PCRE isn't older than 8.32. This change intentionally broke really old versions of PCRE, but that's fixed in follow-up commits.

grep: add support for PCRE v2 Add support for v2 of the PCRE API. This is a new major version of PCRE that came out in early 2015[1]. The regular expression syntax is the same, but while the API is similar, pretty much every function is either renamed or takes different arguments. Thus using it via entirely new functions makes sense, as opposed to trying to e.g. have one compile_pcre_pattern() that would call either PCRE v1 or v2 functions. Git can now be compiled with either USE_LIBPCRE1=YesPlease or USE_LIBPCRE2=YesPlease, with USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease currently being a synonym for the former. Providing both is a compile-time error. With earlier patches to enable JIT for PCRE v1 the performance of the release versions of both libraries is almost exactly the same, with PCRE v2 being around 1% slower. However after I reported this to the pcre-dev mailing list[2] I got a lot of help with the API use from Zoltán Herczeg, he subsequently optimized some of the JIT functionality in v2 of the library. Running the p7820-grep-engines.sh performance test against the latest Subversion trunk of both, with both them and git compiled as -O3, and the test run against linux.git, gives the following results.

As a side effect of using kwset two grep tests are fixed by this patch. The first is fixed because kwset can deal with case-insensitive search containing NULs, something strcasestr cannot do. The second one is fixed because we consider patterns containing NULs as fixed strings (regcomp cannot accept patterns with NULs).

log --author/--committer: really match only with name part When we tried to find commits done by AUTHOR, the first implementation tried to pattern match a line with "^author .*AUTHOR", which later was enhanced to strip leading caret and look for "^author AUTHOR" when the search pattern was anchored at the left end (i.e. --author="^AUTHOR"). This had a few problems: * When looking for fixed strings (e.g. "git log -F --author=x --grep=y"), the regexp internally used "^author .*x" would never match anything; * To match at the end (e.g. "git log --author='google.com>$'"), the generated regexp has to also match the trailing timestamp part the commit header lines have. Also, in order to determine if the '$' at the end means "match at the end of the line" or just a literal dollar sign (probably backslash-quoted), we would need to parse the regexp ourselves. An earlier alternative tried to make sure that a line matches "^author " (to limit by field name) and the user supplied pattern at the same time. While it solved the -F problem by introducing a special override for matching the "^author ", it did not solve the trailing timestamp nor tail match problem. It also would have matched every commit if --author=author was asked for, not because the author's email part had this string, but because every commit header line that talks about the author begins with that field name, regardleses of who wrote it. Instead of piling more hacks on top of hacks, this rethinks the grep machinery that is used to look for strings in the commit header, and makes sure that (1) field name matches literally at the beginning of the line, followed by a SP, and (2) the user supplied pattern is matched against the remainder of the line, excluding the trailing timestamp data.

grep: make locking flag global The low-level grep code traditionally didn't care about threading, as it doesn't do any threading itself and didn't call out to other non-thread-safe code. That changed with 0579f91 (grep: enable threading with -p and -W using lazy attribute lookup, 2011-12-12), which pushed the lookup of funcname attributes (which is not thread-safe) into the low-level grep code. As a result, the low-level code learned about a new global "grep_attr_mutex" to serialize access to the attribute code. A multi-threaded caller (e.g., builtin/grep.c) is expected to initialize the mutex and set "use_threads" in the grep_opt structure. The low-level code only uses the lock if use_threads is set. However, putting the use_threads flag into the grep_opt struct is not the most logical place. Whether threading is in use is not something that matters for each call to grep_buffer, but is instead global to the whole program (i.e., if any thread is doing multi-threaded grep, every other thread, even if it thinks it is doing its own single-threaded grep, would need to use the locking). In practice, this distinction isn't a problem for us, because the only user of multi-threaded grep is "git-grep", which does nothing except call grep. This patch turns the opt->use_threads flag into a global flag. More important than the nit-picking semantic argument above is that this means that the locking functions don't need to actually have access to a grep_opt to know whether to lock. Which in turn can make adding new locks simpler, as we don't need to pass around a grep_opt. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
