2024-08-21t: move reftable/block_test.c to the unit testing frameworkChandra Pratap
reftable/block_test.c exercises the functions defined in reftable/block.{c, h}. Migrate reftable/block_test.c to the unit testing framework. Migration involves refactoring the tests to use the unit testing framework instead of reftable's test framework and renaming the tests to follow the unit-tests' naming conventions.

2024-06-07reftable: cast away constness when assigning constants to recordsPatrick Steinhardt
The reftable records are used in multiple ways throughout the reftable library. In many of those cases they merely act as input to a function without getting modified by it at all. Most importantly, this happens when writing records and when querying for records. We rely on this in our tests and thus assign string constants to those fields, which is about to generate warnings as those fields are of type `char *`. While we could go through the process and instead allocate those strings in all of our tests, this feels quite unnecessary. Instead, add casts to `char *` for all of those strings. As this is part of our tests, this also nicely serves as a demonstration that nothing writes or frees those string constants, which would otherwise lead to segfaults.

2024-04-15reftable/block: merge `block_iter_seek()` and `block_reader_seek()`Patrick Steinhardt
The function `block_iter_seek()` is merely a simple wrapper around `block_reader_seek()`. Merge those two functions into a new function `block_iter_seek_key()` that more clearly says what it is actually doing.

2024-04-15reftable/block: rename `block_reader_start()`Patrick Steinhardt
The function `block_reader_start()` does not really apply to the block reader, but to the block iterator. It's name is thus somewhat confusing. Rename it to `block_iter_seek_start()` to clarify. We will rename `block_reader_seek()` in similar spirit in the next commit. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-02-06reftable: introduce macros to allocate arraysPatrick Steinhardt
Similar to the preceding commit, let's carry over macros to allocate arrays with `REFTABLE_ALLOC_ARRAY()` and `REFTABLE_CALLOC_ARRAY()`. This requires us to change the signature of `reftable_calloc()`, which only takes a single argument right now and thus puts the burden on the caller to calculate the final array's size. This is a net improvement though as it means that we can now provide proper overflow checks when multiplying the array size with the member size. Convert callsites of `reftable_calloc()` to the new signature and start using the new macros where possible.

2024-01-03reftable/record: store "val1" hashes as static arraysPatrick Steinhardt
When reading ref records of type "val1", we store its object ID in an allocated array. This results in an additional allocation for every single ref record we read, which is rather inefficient especially when iterating over refs. Refactor the code to instead use an embedded array of `GIT_MAX_RAWSZ` bytes. While this means that `struct ref_record` is bigger now, we typically do not store all refs in an array anyway and instead only handle a limited number of records at the same point in time. Using `git show-ref --quiet` in a repository with ~350k refs this leads to a significant drop in allocations. Before: HEAP SUMMARY: in use at exit: 21,098 bytes in 192 blocks total heap usage: 2,116,683 allocs, 2,116,491 frees, 76,098,060 bytes allocated After: HEAP SUMMARY: in use at exit: 21,098 bytes in 192 blocks total heap usage: 1,419,031 allocs, 1,418,839 frees, 62,145,036 bytes allocated Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2023-12-11reftable/block: introduce macro to initialize `struct block_iter`Patrick Steinhardt
There are a bunch of locations where we initialize members of `struct block_iter`, which makes it harder than necessary to expand this struct to have additional members. Unify the logic via a new `BLOCK_ITER_INIT` macro that initializes all members. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2022-02-23reftable: avoid writing empty keys at the block layerHan-Wen Nienhuys
The public interface (reftable_writer) already ensures that keys are written in strictly increasing order, and an empty key by definition fails this check. However, by also enforcing this at the block layer, it is easier to verify that records (which are written into blocks) never have to consider the possibility of empty keys.

2022-01-20reftable: make reftable_record a tagged unionHan-Wen Nienhuys
This reduces the amount of glue code, because we don't need a void pointer or vtable within the structure. The only snag is that reftable_index_record contain a strbuf, so it cannot be zero-initialized. To address this, use reftable_new_record() to return fresh instance, given a record type. Since reftable_new_record() doesn't cause heap allocation anymore, it should be balanced with reftable_record_release() rather than reftable_record_destroy(). Thanks to Peff for the suggestion.

2021-10-08reftable: reading/writing blocksHan-Wen Nienhuys
The reftable format is structured as a sequence of block. Within a block, records are prefix compressed, with an index of offsets for fully expand keys to enable binary search within blocks. This commit provides the logic to read and write these blocks.
