The "if (q->nr <= j)" condition essentially means "did the for loop above end via the sentinel, not a break?" This means that the diff_q() call is run if the for loop finishes normally OR if we hit the visible "else" call. There is some subtlety with the if / else if / else conditions. The 'if' condition has a 'continue' which avoids the diff_q in its new position. Something like the two paragraphs above would be good to add to the commit message so we can more easily read this patch in the future. Here is the full method context (in master) to help others: void diffcore_merge_broken(void) { struct diff_queue_struct *q = &diff_queued_diff; struct diff_queue_struct outq; int i, j; DIFF_QUEUE_CLEAR(&outq); for (i = 0; i < q->nr; i++) { struct diff_filepair *p = q->queue[i]; if (!p) /* we already merged this with its peer */ continue; else if (p->broken_pair && !strcmp(p->one->path, p->two->path)) { /* If the peer also survived rename/copy, then * we merge them back together. */ for (j = i + 1; j < q->nr; j++) { struct diff_filepair *pp = q->queue[j]; if (pp->broken_pair && !strcmp(pp->one->path, pp->two->path) && !strcmp(p->one->path, pp->two->path)) { /* Peer survived.

Not so fast. This looks like it was intended to help compilers that cannot unroll loops all that easily, and just because current clang can does not mean that we should put people at a deliberate disadvantage when they are stuck with a C compiler that cannot optimize the post-image of this diff. Let's first see whether my gut feeling has any merit. This part of the code entered Git's tree in 0620b39b3b7 (compat: add a mkstemps() compatibility function, 2009-05-31), and it was clearly copy-edited from libiberty. It entered libiberty in https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/commit/119735e34916. That commit claims that it was copy-edited from glibc, and edited it was, as it inlined the `__gen_tempname()` function. Sadly, the commit message of the patch that introduced this pattern into glibc is pretty much not helpful at all here: https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commitdiff;h=a7ab2023fcdd5c90c9f664cbaed8ef90dd38e818 (it only talks about using a random-name generator that is already used elsewhere.) In short: sadly, this history excursion did not reveal anything to back up my intuition that your change would revert a change that might be crucial on older platforms. However, I think that this patch should at least be accompanied by a commit message that suggests that some thought was put into it, and that concerns like mine were considered carefully. I mean, if there is _any_ performance-critical code path hitting this unrolled loop, we may want to keep it unrolled. Ciao, Johannes ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

The loop in question is maybe a few dozen instructions, and then it immediately makes an open() syscall, which is probably multiple orders of magnitude more expensive. So I'd be very surprised if it was a problem no matter what the generated code looks like.
