While these constants are both 19 (one less than the number of bytes in the hash), distinguish them to make the code more understandable, and define them logically based on their intended purpose.

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.

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 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.

The 8.20 release was the first release to have JIT & pcre_jit_stack in the headers, so a mock type needs to be provided for it on those releases. Now git should compile with all PCRE versions that it supported before my JIT change. I've tested it as far back as version 7.5 released on 2008-01-10, once I got down to version 7.0 it wouldn't build anymore with GCC 7.1.1, and I couldn't be bothered to anything older than 7.5 as I'm confident that if the build breaks on those older versions it's not because of my JIT change. See the "un-break" change in this series ("grep: un-break building with PCRE < 8.32", 2017-05-10) for why this isn't squashed into the main PCRE JIT commit.

The JIT support was added in version 8.20 released on 2011-10-21, but it wasn't until 8.32 released on 2012-11-30 that the fast code path to use the JIT via pcre_jit_exec() was added[1] (see also [2]). This means that versions 8.20 through 8.31 could still use the JIT, but supporting it on those versions would add to the already verbose macro soup around JIT support it, and I don't expect that the use-case of compiling a brand new git against a 5 year old PCRE is particularly common, and if someone does that they can just get the existing pre-JIT slow codepath. So just take the easy way out and disable the JIT on any version older than 8.32. The reason this change isn't part of the initial change PCRE JIT support is to have a cleaner history showing which parts of the implementation are only used for ancient PCRE versions. This also makes it easier to revert this change if we ever decide to stop supporting those old versions. 1. http://www.pcre.org/original/changelog.txt ("28. Introducing a native interface for JIT.

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.

Make it consistent with "grep" rather than to keep it open for future use, and to avoid the confusion of -P meaning different things for grep & log, as is the case with the -G option. As noted in the aforementioned commit the --basic-regexp option can't have a corresponding -G argument, as the log command already uses that for -G<regex>.

This redundant compilation dates back to the initial introduction of the threaded grep in commit 5b594f457a ("Threaded grep", 2010-01-25). There was never any reason for doing this redundant work other than an oversight in the initial commit. Jeff King suggested on-list in <20170414212325.fefrl3qdjigwyitd@sigill.intra.peff.net> that this might be needed to check the pattern for sanity before threaded execution commences. That's not the case. The pattern is compiled under threading in start_threads() before any concurrent execution has started by calling pthread_create(), so if the pattern contains an error we still do the right thing. I.e. die with one error before any threaded execution has commenced, instead of e.g. spewing out an error for each N threads, which could be a regression a change like this might inadvertently introduce. This change is not meant as an optimization, any performance gains from this are in the hundreds to thousands of nanoseconds at most. If we wanted more performance here we could just re-use the compiled patterns in multiple threads (regcomp(3) is thread-safe), or partially re-use them and the associated structures in the case of later PCRE JIT changes. Rather, it's just to make the code easier to reason about. It's confusing to debug this under threading & non-threading when the threading codepaths redundantly compile a pattern which is never used. The reason the patterns are recompiled is as a side-effect of duplicating the whole grep_opt structure, which is not thread safe, writable, and munged during execution. The grep_opt structure then points to the grep_pat structure where pattern or patterns are stored. I looked into e.g. splitting the API into some "do & alloc threadsafe stuff", "spawn thread", "do and alloc non-threadsafe stuff", but the execution time of grep_opt_dup() & pattern compilation is trivial compared to actually executing the grep, so there was no point. Even with the more expensive JIT changes to follow the most expensive PCRE patterns take something like 0.0X milliseconds to compile at most[1]. The undocumented --debug mode added in commit 17bf35a3c7 ("grep: teach --debug option to dump the parse tree", 2012-09-13) still works properly with this change. It only emits debugging info during pattern compilation, which is now dumped by the pattern compiled just before the first thread is started. 1. http://sljit.sourceforge.net/pcre.html Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

When "--" is not there, we make sure early ones are all interpretable as revs (and do not look like paths) and later ones are the other way around. A pathspec with "magic" (e.g. ":/p/a/t/h" that matches p/a/t/h from the top-level of the working tree, no matter what subdirectory you are working from) are conservatively judged as "not a path", which required disambiguation more often. The command line parser learned to say "it's a pathspec" a bit more often when the syntax looks like so. * jk/pathspec-magic-disambiguation: verify_filename(): flip order of checks verify_filename(): treat ":(magic)" as a pathspec check_filename(): handle ":^" path magic check_filename(): use skip_prefix check_filename(): refactor ":/" handling t4208: add check for ":/" without matching file

We loosened the rules for wildcards in 28fcc0b71 (pathspec: avoid the need of "--" when wildcard is used, 2015-05-02). Let's do the same for pathspecs with long-form magic. We already handle the short-forms ":/" and ":^" specially in check_filename(), so we don't need to handle them here. And in fact, we could do the same with long-form magic, parsing out the actual filename and making sure it exists. But there are a few reasons not to do it that way: - the parsing gets much more complicated, and we'd want to hand it off to the pathspec code. But that code isn't ready to do this kind of speculative parsing (it's happy to die() when it sees a syntactically invalid pathspec). - not all pathspec magic maps to a filesystem path. E.g., :(attr) should be treated as a pathspec regardless of what is in the filesystem - we can be a bit looser with ":(" than with the short-form ":/", because it is much less likely to have a false positive. Whereas ":/" also means "search for a commit with this regex". Note that because the change is in verify_filename() and not in its helper check_filename(), this doesn't affect the verify_non_filename() case. I.e., if an item that matches our new rule doesn't resolve as an object, we may fallback to treating it as a pathspec (rather than complaining it doesn't exist). But if it does resolve (e.g., as a file in the index that starts with an open-paren), we won't then complain that it's also a valid pathspec. This matches the wildcard-exception behavior. And of course in either case, one can always insert the "--" to get more precise results. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

We'll want to handle more pathspec magic in future patches, so let's do a little rearranging to make that easier. Instead of relying on an if/else cascade to avoid the prefix_filename() call, we'll just set prefix to NULL. Likewise, we'll get rid of the "name" variable entirely, and just push the "arg" pointer forward to skip past the magic. That means by the time we get to the prefix-handling, we're set up appropriately whether we saw ":/" or not. Note that this does impact the final error message we produce when stat() fails, as it shows "arg" (which we'll have modified to skip magic and include the prefix). This is a good thing; the original message would say something like "failed to stat ':/foo'", which is confusing (we tried to stat "foo").
