* [PATCH v2 0/6] Minor fsmonitor bugfixes, use with `git diff`

Changes in this reroll:
 - Instead of including dir.h from fsmonitor.h, stop inlining the
   functions that made that necessary.

 - test-dump-fsmonitor sets a config variable soas to be able to
   access the fsmonitor state (after it has been un-split if using the
   split index) from the index without modifying it.  I'm least sure
   of this change, but I'm short on ideas for a cleaner
   implementation.

 - test-dump-fsmonitor now outputs a more concise output, with a
   trailing newline, instead of just patching over the lack of
   trailing newline on the old format.


Somehow patch 6/6 didn't get included in Junio's
av/fsmonitor-updates.  That's really the most useful patch of the
series, and the original impetus for it, as it turns out. :)

Best,
 - Alex

These were inline'd when they were first introduced, presumably as an
optimization for cases when they were called in tight loops.  This
complicates using these functions, as untracked_cache_invalidate_path
is defined in dir.h.

Leave the inline'ing up to the compiler's decision, for ease of use.

dd9005a0a ("fsmonitor: delay updating state until after split index is
merged", 2017-10-27) began deferring the setting of the
CE_FSMONITOR_VALID flag until later, such that do_read_index() does
not perform those steps.  This means that t/helper/test-dump-fsmonitor
showed all bits as always unset.

Load the index using read_index_from(), which is aware of split
indexes and later fsmonitor ewah inflation, but ensure that we do not
add or remove it, by setting the value to "keep".

Rather than display one very long line, summarize the contents of that
line.  The tests do not currently rely on any content except the first
line ("no fsmonitor" / "fsmonitor last update").

This makes use of the fsmonitor extension to skip lstat() calls on
files that fsmonitor judged as unmodified.  We skip use of the
fsmonitor extension when called by "add" because the format_callback
in such cases expects to be called even when the file is believed to
be "up to date" with the index.

As a compromise, you could leave the rather simple mark_fsmonitor_valid()
as inlined function. It should be by far the more-called function, anyway.

The more interesting part would be the entries with outdated ("invalid")
information. I thought that this information was pretty useful for
debugging. Maybe we could still keep at least that part, or at least
trigger outputting it via a command-line flag?

I read over this hunk five times, and only now am I able to wrap my head
around this: if we do *not* want to skip the fsmonitor data, we refresh
the fsmonitor data in the index.

That feels a bit like an unneeded double negation. Speaking for myself, I
would prefore `DIFF_IGNORE_FSMONITOR` instead, it would feel less like a
double negation then. But I am not a native speaker, so I might be wrong.

Since we do expect this to be called without the DIFF_SKIP_FSMONITOR flag,
I guess it makes sense to order it this way.

I still have troubles to understand why we ignore the fsmonitor data with
`git add`, though... we want to add only modified files, right? I thought
that the fsmonitor data could help performance exactly there (I am
thinking of a certain insanely large code base where a developer might
want to change only one or maybe 3 files out of an entire machine workshop
of files, and with fsmonitor it should be a really fast operation because
it should ignore all but those few files, right?)... Could you maybe try
to help me understand that better?

Thanks,
Johannes

It took me a while to reason about this:

- there is no existing code path that can return -1 from
  git_config_get_fsmonitor(),

- the callers in builtin/update-index.c (testing explicitly for 0 and 1)
  do not matter because they only trigger warnings.

- the remaining two callers are in fsmonitor.c:

  - tweak_fsmonitor() (which handles -1 specifically), and

  - inflate_fsmonitor_ewah(), which only tests whether
    git_config_get_fsmonitor() returned a non-zero value, but that test is
    inside a code block that is only triggered if the index has an
    fsmonitor_dirty array, meaning: it already had fsmonitor enabled.
    Therefore the test is legitimate.

This would take the next reader as much time, I would wager a bet. So
maybe you can include this information (or at least the information about
inflate_fsmonitor_ewah()) in the commit message?

The alternative would be to use an environment variable. We already use
GIT_FSMONITOR_TEST.

However, I wonder why we need this. Do we really update the index anywhere
in the tests, then *toggle* the core.fsmonitor setting, and *then* call
test-dump-fsmonitor?

And if we do, can't we simply avoid it?

Ciao,
Johannes

I do find the logic a bit convoluted with double negative.

I'm fine with these not being inline.  I was attempting to minimize the 
performance impact of the fsmonitor code when it was not even turned on. 
  Inlineing these functions allowed it to be kept to a simple test but I 
suspect (especially with modern optimizing compilers) that the overhead 
of calling a function to do that test is negligible.

During the development and testing of fsmonitor, I found the '+-' to be 
helpful (especially since it is in index order).  I could touch a file 
and verify that it showed up as invalid and that it was the file I 
expected by its placement in the index.

I'd hate to have to add options to a test program for more/less output. 
I do like your additions of the time since updated and the final counts. 
  I prefer more information rather than less in my test tools - how 
about this?

It's great to see more use of the fsmonitor data.  Thanks for doing this!

I agree with the sentiment that the logic as written is confusing.  I'll 
also point out that DIFF_IGNORE_FSMONITOR would be more consistent with 
the similar CE_MATCH_IGNORE_FSMONITOR flag and logic.

I'm also confused why we would not want to use the fsmonitor data in the 
'add' case.  When would you ever need to add a file that had not been 
modified?
