Subject: [PATCH 00/10] submodule: make it a built-in, remove git-submodule.sh
Date: Mon, 17 Oct 2022 14:09:15 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover-00.10-00000000000-20221017T115544Z-avarab@gmail.com> (raw)

On "master" any special behavior in git-submodule.sh itself has almost
entirely gone away, it's a trivial shimmy layer that dispatches to the
built-in "submodule--helper" command.

This series takes the logical next step and removes "git-submodule.sh"
entirely, replacing it wtih a "builtin/submodule.c". We leave
"builtin/submodule--helper.c" in-place and invoke its
cmd_submodule__helper() from the much smaller
"builtin/submodule.c". We should consolidate them, but let's leave
that cleanup for later.

An earlier version of this was submitted as an RFC in [1], since then
we've had various "prep" series's land to prepare for this final step,
namely:

  - 361cbe6d6d2 (Merge branch 'ab/submodule-cleanup', 2022-07-14)
  - 5647d743e39 (Merge branch 'ab/submodule-helper-prep' into ab/submodule-helper-leakfix, 2022-09-02)
  - b563638d2cf (Merge branch 'ab/submodule-helper-leakfix', 2022-09-14)

The first two made it much easier to take these last steps, as the
"submodule--helper" interface was already mostly mirroring that of
"submodule" itself. The "ab/submodule-helper-leakfix" series then made
it easier to test that our object ownership was still sane.

There's a recent report at [2] that "submodule--helper list" going
away in 5647d743e39 only left the much slower "foreach 'echo $name'"
alternative. As 07/10 and 10/10 here note rewriting this in C makes
that 'echo' version only about 0.1x slower, instead of >6x slower.

      ## Commit message ##
    -    git-submodule.sh: normalize parsing of "--branch"
    +    git-submodule.sh: don't support top-level "--cached"
     
    -    In 5c08dbbdf1a (git-submodule: fix subcommand parser, 2008-01-15) the
    -    "--branch" option was supported as an option to "git submodule"
    -    itself, i.e. "git submodule --branch" as a side-effect of its
    -    implementation.
    +    Since the preceding commit all sub-commands of "git submodule" have
    +    been dispatched to "git submodule--helper" directly, we therefore
    +    don't need to emit "usage()" if we see "--cached" without the
    +    sub-command being "status" or "summary", we can trust that
    +    parse_options() will spot that and barf on it.
     
    -    Then in b57e8119e6e (submodule: teach set-branch subcommand,
    -    2019-02-08) when the "set-branch" subcommand was added the assertion
    -    that we shouldn't have "--branch" anywhere except as an argument to
    -    "add" and "set-branch" was copy/pasted from the adjacent check for
    -    "--cache" added (or rather modified) in 496eeeb19b9 (git-submodule.sh:
    -    avoid "test <cond> -a/-o <cond>", 2014-06-10).
    +    This does change one obscure aspect of undocumented behavior, for
    +    "status" and "summary" we supported these undocumented forms:
     
    -    But there's been a logic error in that check, this looked like it
    -    should be supporting:
    +        git submodule --cached (status | summary)
     
    -        git submodule --branch <branch> (add | set-branch) [<options>]
    +    As noted in a preceding commit to git-submodule.sh which removed the
    +    "--branch" special-case, this comes down to emergent behavior seen in
    +    5c08dbbdf1a (git-submodule: fix subcommand parser,
    +    2008-01-15). I.e. we wanted to support was for subcommand-less invocations like:
     
    -    But due to "||" in the condition (as opposed to "&&" for "--cache") if
    -    we have "--branch" here already we'll emit usage, even for "add" and
    -    "set-branch".
    +        git submodule --cached
     
    -    Since nobody's complained about "--branch <branch>" not being
    -    supported as argument to "git submodule" itself, i.e. we want to
    -    support:
    +    To be synonymous with invocations that explicitly named the "status"
    +    sub-command:
     
    -        git submodule (add | set-branch) --branch <branch>  [<options>]
    +        git submodule status --cached
     
    -    But not the first form noted above. Let's just remove this code, we've
    -    never documented "--branch" as a top-level option (unlike "--quiet"),
    -    so this looks like it was an accident of the implementation, which we
    -    broke v2.22.0, so we also know it must not have been important to
    -    anyone.
    +    But we did not intend to mix the two, and allow "--cached" to be an
    +    option to the top-level "submodule" command when the "status" or
    +    "summary" sub-commands were explicitly provided.
    +
    +    Let's remove this undocumented edge case, which makes a subsequent
    +    removal of git-submodule.sh easier to reason about. The test case
    +    added here is duplicated from the existing for-loop, except for the
    +    different and desired handling of "git submodule --cached status".

         submodule: make it a built-in, remove git-submodule.sh
     
    -    Replace the now-trivial git-submodule.sh script with a built-in
    -    builtin/submodule.c. For now this new command is only a dumb
    +    Replace the "git-submodule.sh" script with a built-in
    +    "builtin/submodule.c. For" now this new command is only a dumb
         dispatcher that uses run-command.c to invoke "git submodule--helper",
         just as "git-submodule.sh" used to do.
     
    -    This is obviously not ideal, and we should follow-up and merge the
    -    builtin/submodule--helper.c code into builtin/submodule.c, but doing it
    -    this way makes it easy to review that this new C implementation isn't
    -    doing anything more clever than the old shellscript implementation.
    +    This is obviously not ideal, and we should eventually follow-up and
    +    merge the "builtin/submodule--helper.c" code into
    +    "builtin/submodule.c". Doing it this way makes it easy to review that
    +    this new C implementation isn't doing anything more clever than the
    +    old shellscript implementation.
     
    -    The "define BUILTIN_" macros will help with that, i.e. the usage
    -    information we emit can be merged with what
    -    builtin/submodule--helper.c is now emitting. See
    -    8757b35d443 (commit-graph: define common usage with a macro,
    -    2021-08-23) and 1e91d3faf6c (reflog: move "usage" variables and use
    -    macros, 2022-03-17) for prior art using this pattern.
    +    This is a large win for performance, we're now more than 4x as fast as
    +    before in terms of the fixed cost of invoking any "git submodule"
    +    command[1]:
    +
    +            $ git hyperfine -L rev HEAD~1,HEAD -s 'make CFLAGS=-O3' './git --exec-path=$PWD submodule foreach "echo \$name"'
    +            Benchmark 1: ./git --exec-path=$PWD submodule foreach "echo \$name"' in 'HEAD~1
    +              Time (mean ± σ):      42.2 ms ±   0.4 ms    [User: 34.9 ms, System: 9.1 ms]
    +              Range (min … max):    41.3 ms …  43.2 ms    70 runs
    +
    +            Benchmark 2: ./git --exec-path=$PWD submodule foreach "echo \$name"' in 'HEAD
    +              Time (mean ± σ):       9.7 ms ±   0.1 ms    [User: 7.6 ms, System: 2.2 ms]
    +              Range (min … max):     9.5 ms …  10.3 ms    282 runs
    +
    +            Summary
    +              './git --exec-path=$PWD submodule foreach "echo \$name"' in 'HEAD' ran
    +                4.33 ± 0.07 times faster than './git --exec-path=$PWD submodule foreach "echo \$name"' in 'HEAD~1'
    +
    +    We're taking pains here to faithfully reproduce existing
    +    "git-submodule.sh" behavior, even when that behavior is stupid. Some
    +    of it we'll fix in subsequent commits, but let's first faithfully
    +    reproduce the behavior.
    +
    +    One exception is the change in the behavior of the exit code
    +    stand-alone "-h" and "--" yield, see the altered tests. Returning 129
    +    instead of 0 and 1 for "-h" and "--" respectively is a concession to
    +    basic sanity.
    +
    +    The pattern of using "define BUILTIN_" macros here isn't needed for
    +    now, but as we'll move code out of "builtin/submodule--helper.c" we'll
    +    want to re-use these strings. See 8757b35d443 (commit-graph: define
    +    common usage with a macro, 2021-08-23) and 1e91d3faf6c (reflog: move
    +    "usage" variables and use macros, 2022-03-17) for prior art using this
    +    pattern.
     
         The "(argc < 2 || !strcmp(argv[1], "-h"))" path at the top of
         cmd_submodule__helper() could now be a "(argc < 2)" if not for
         t0012-help.sh (which invokes all built-ins manually with "-h"). Let's
         leave it for now, eventually we'll consolidate the two.
     
    +    1. Using the "git hyperfine" wrapper for "hyperfine":

    -    git-submodule.sh: remove unused --super-prefix logic
    +    submodule: support "--" with no other arguments
     
    -    The "$prefix" variable has not been set since b3c5f5cb048 (submodule:
    -    move core cmd_update() logic to C, 2022-03-15), so we'd never pass the
    -    --super-prefix option to "git submodule--helper", and can therefore
    -    remove the handling of it from builtin/submodule--helper.c as well.
    +    Address an edge case that "git-submodule.sh" has had all along, but
    +    which became painfully obvious in the *.sh to *.c migration in the
    +    preceding commit.
    +
    +    We didn't support the "--" delimiter in the argument-less
    +    invocation. Let's not bend over backwards to behave unusually in this
    +    scenario, simply accepting "--" is harmless.

    -    submodule: add a subprocess-less submodule.useBuiltin setting
    +    submodule: support sub-command-less "--recursive" option
     
    -    Add an experimental setting to avoid the subprocess invocation of "git
    -    submodule--helper", instead we'll call cmd_submodule__helper()
    -    directly.
    +    The inability to specify "--recursive" when we're not providing a
    +    sub-command name appears to have been an omission in 15fc56a8536 (git
    +    submodule foreach: Add --recursive to recurse into nested submodules,
    +    2009-08-19). Let's support it along with the other "status" options.

    -    git-submodule.sh: remove unused $prefix variable
    +    submodule: don't use a subprocess to invoke "submodule--helper"
     
    -    Remove the $prefix variable which is never set, and never resulted in
    -    an option being passed to our "git submodule--helper". The
    -    --recursive-prefix option to "git submodule--helper" is still used,
    -    but only when it invokes itself.
    +    In a preceding commit we created "builtin/submodule.c" and faithfully
    +    tried to reproduce every aspect of "git-submodule.sh", including its
    +    invocation of "git submodule--helper" as a sub-process.
    +
    +    Let's do away with the sub-process and invoke
    +    "cmd_submodule__helper()" directly. Eventually we'll want to do away
    +    with "builtin/submodule--helper.c" altogether, but let's not do that
    +    for now to avoid conflicts with other in-flight topics. Even without
    +    those conflicts the resulting diff would be large. We can leave that
    +    for a later cleanup.
    +
    +    This speeds up invocations of all "git submodule" commands, E.g. a
    +    trivial "foreach" command on git.git is around 1.50 times
    +    faster[1]. For more expensive commands this'll make less of a
    +    difference, as the fixed cost of invoking the sub-process will be
    +    amortized away.
    +
    +            $ git hyperfine -L rev HEAD~1,HEAD -s 'make CFLAGS=-O3' './git submodule foreach "echo \$name"'
    +            Benchmark 1: ./git submodule foreach "echo \$name"' in 'HEAD~1
    +              Time (mean ± σ):       9.7 ms ±   0.1 ms    [User: 7.6 ms, System: 2.1 ms]
    +              Range (min … max):     9.4 ms …  10.2 ms    285 runs
    +
    +            Benchmark 2: ./git submodule foreach "echo \$name"' in 'HEAD
    +              Time (mean ± σ):       6.6 ms ±   0.1 ms    [User: 5.1 ms, System: 1.5 ms]
    +              Range (min … max):     6.2 ms …   7.2 ms    414 runs
    +
    +            Summary

    +                1.48 ± 0.04 times faster than './git submodule foreach "echo \$name"' in 'HEAD~1'
    +
    +    It's also worth noting that some users were using e.g. "git
    +    submodule--helper list" directly for performance reasons[2]. With
    +    31955475d1c (submodule--helper: remove unused "list" helper,
    +    2022-09-01) released with v2.38.0 the "list" command was no longer
    +    provided. Users who had to switch to "git submodule--helper foreach"
    +    were given a command that (on my system) is around 6.5x slower.
    +
    +    Now the "foreach" is around 0.10x slower (due to the slight shell
    +    overhead), with 31955475d1c reverted on top of this:
    +
    +            $ hyperfine './git submodule--helper list' './git submodule foreach --quiet "echo \$name"' --warmup 10
    +            Benchmark 1: ./git submodule--helper list
    +              Time (mean ± σ):       6.4 ms ±   0.1 ms    [User: 5.0 ms, System: 1.5 ms]
    +              Range (min … max):     6.2 ms …   7.2 ms    427 runs
    +
    +            Benchmark 2: ./git submodule foreach --quiet "echo \$name"
    +              Time (mean ± σ):       7.0 ms ±   0.1 ms    [User: 4.8 ms, System: 2.3 ms]
    +              Range (min … max):     6.8 ms …   7.4 ms    390 runs
    +
    +            Summary
    +              './git submodule--helper list' ran
    +                1.10 ± 0.03 times faster than './git submodule foreach --quiet "echo \$name"'
    +
    +    I think it would make sense to implement a "--format" option for "git
    +    submodule foreach" to help anyone who cares about that remaining
    +    performance (and to improve the API, e.g. by supporting "-z"), but as
    +    far as performance goes this makes the runtime acceptable again.
    +
    +    The pattern in "cmd_submodule_builtin()" of saving "struct strvec"
    +    arguments to a "struct string_list" and free()-ing them after the
    +    "argv" has been modified by "cmd_submodule__helper()" is new, without
    +    it we'd get various already-passing tests failing under SANITIZE=leak.
    +
    +    1. Using the "git hyperfine" wrapper for "hyperfine":
    +       https://lore.kernel.org/git/211201.86r1aw9gbd.gmgdl@evledraar.gmail.com/
