It seems easiest to have a singleton Gcf2Client client object
per daemon worker for all inboxes to use. This reduces overall
FD usage from pipes.
The `public-inbox-gcf2' command + manpage are gone and a `$^X'
one-liner is used, instead. This saves inodes for internal
commands and hopefully makes it easier to avoid mismatched
PERL5LIB include paths (as noticed during development :x).
We'll also make the existing cat-file process management
infrastructure more resilient to BOFHs on process killing
sprees (or in case our libgit2-based code fails on us).
(Rare) PublicInbox::WWW PSGI users NOT using public-inbox-httpd
won't automatically benefit from this change, and extra
configuration will be required (to be documented later).

This amortizes the cost of recreating PublicInbox::Gcf2 objects
when alternates change in v2 all.git.

$git->cat_async already calls $git->batch_prepare iff needed, so
we can reduce subroutine calls and inline a one-off subroutine
to save some memory, here.

We replaced Danga::Socket with PublicInbox::DS roughly a year
before GitAsyncCat was introduced into our git history.
|
|
We avoided a managed circular reference in 10ee3548084c125f
but introduced a pipe FD leak, instead. So handle the EOF
we get when the "git cat-file --batch" process exits and
closes its stdout FD.
v2: remove ->close entirely. PublicInbox::Git->cleanup
handles all cleanup. This prevents us from inadvertantly
deleting the {async_cat} field associated with a different
pipe than the one GAC is monitoring.
Fixes: 10ee3548084c125f ("git_async_cat: remove circular reference")

Since the removal of pseudo-hash support in Perl 5.10, the
"fields" module no longer provides the space or speed benefits
it did in 5.8. It also does not allow for compile-time checks,
only run-time checks.
To me, the extra developer overhead in maintaining "use fields"
args has become a hassle. None of our non-DS-related code uses
fields.pm, nor do any of our current dependencies. In fact,
Danga::Socket (which DS was originally forked from) and its
subclasses are the only fields.pm users I've ever encountered in
the wild. Removing fields may make our code more approachable
to other Perl hackers.
So stop using fields.pm and locked hashes, but continue to
document what fields do for non-trivial classes.

While this circular reference was carefully managed to not leak
memory; it was still triggering a warning at -imapd/-nntpd
shutdown due to the EPOLL_CTL_DEL op failing after the $Epoll FD
gets closed.
So remove the circular reference by providing a ref to `undef',
instead.
|
|
Trying to avoid a circular reference by relying on $ibx object
here makes no sense, since skipping GitCatAsync::close will
result in an FD leak, anyways. So keep GitAsyncCat contained to
git-only operations, since we'll be using it for Solver in the
distant feature.

We do this for the C10K-oriented HTTP/NNTP/IMAP processes, and
we may support thousands of git-cat-file processes in the
future.

This ought to improve overall performance with multiple clients.
Single client performance suffers a tiny bit due to extra
syscall overhead from epoll.
This also makes the existing async interface easier-to-use,
since calling cat_async_begin is no longer required.
