At present, it is sufficient to ensure that an error return
from inflateInit() is not ignored. Most error returns, like

The fanout table is fairly commonly accessed, we need to read it
twice for each object we lookup in any given pack file. Most of
the processors running Git are running in little-endian mode, as
they are variants of the x86 platform, so reading the fanout is
a costly operation as we need to convert from network byte order
to local byte order. By decoding the fanout table into a malloc
obtained buffer we can save these 2 decode operations per lookup
and make search go more quickly.
This also cleans up the initialization of the search functions
by cutting out a few instructions, saving a small amount of time.
Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
The index data is mapped into memory and then scanned using a
binary search algorithm to locate the matching entry for the
supplied git_oid. The standard fanout hash trick is applied to
reduce the search space by 8 iterations.
Since the v1 and v2 file formats differ in their search function,
due to the different layouts used for the object records, we use
two different search implementations and a virtual function pointer
to jump to the correct version of code for the current pack index.
The single function jump per-pack should be faster then computing
a branch point inside the inner loop of a common binary search.
To improve concurrency during read operations the pack lock is only
held while verifying the index is actually open, or while opening
the index for the first time. This permits multiple concurrent
readers to scan through the same index.
If an invalid index file is opened we close it and mark the
git_pack's invalid bit to true. The git_pack structure is kept
around in its parent git_packlist, but the invalid bit will cause
all future readers to skip over the pack entirely. Pruning the
invalid entries is relatively unimportant because they shouldn't
be very common, a $GIT_DIRECTORY/objects/pack directory tends to
only have valid pack files.

Win32 has a variant of mmap that is harder to use than POSIX, but
to run natively and efficiently on Win32 we need some form of it.

where we need read-only random data access to large ranges of a file,
such as a pack-*.idx.

Using an atomic reference counter is difficult to make
cross-platform, as the reference count implementations
are generally processor specific. Its also hard to do
a proper multi-read/single-write implementation.
We now use a simple mutex around the reference count for the list
of packs. Readers grab the mutex and either build the list, or
increment the existing one's reference count. When the reader is
done with the list, the reference count is decremented. In this way
parallel readers are able to operate on the list without worrying
about it being deallocated out from under them.
Individual pack structures are held by reference counts, but we
only care about the list the pack structure is held in. There is
no need to increment/decrement the pack reference counts as we
scan through them during a read operation, the caller holds the
git_packlist and that is sufficient to hold the packs it references.

an extension to the language, which is available with or without any

Our fileops API is currently private. We aren't planning on supplying
a cross-platform file API to applications that link to us. If we did,
we'd probably whole-sale publish fileops, not just the dirent code.
By moving it to be private we can also change the call signature to
permit the buffer to be passed down through the call chain. This is
very helpful when we are doing a recursive scan as we can reuse just
one buffer in all stack frames, reducing the impact the recursion has
on the stack frames in the data cache.

We now forbid direct use of malloc, strdup or calloc within the
library and instead use wrapper functions git__malloc, etc. to
invoke the underlying library malloc and set git_errno to a no
memory error code if the allocation fails.
In the future once we have pack objects in memory we are likely
to enhance these routines with garbage collection logic to purge
cached pack data when allocations fail. Because the size of the
function will grow somewhat large, we don't want to mark them for
inline as gcc tends to aggressively inline, creating larger than
expected executables.

The Mach-O format does not permit gcc to implement the __thread
TLS specification, so we must instead emulate it using a single
int cell allocated from memory and stored inside of the thread
specific data associated with the current pthread.
What makes this tricky is git_errno must be a valid lvalue, so
we really need to return a pointer to the caller and deference it
as part of the git_errno macro.
The GCC-specific __attribute__((constructor)) extension is used
to ensure the pthread_key_t is allocated before any Git functions
are executed in the library, as this is necessary to access our
thread specific storage.

In particular, when asked to read an empty file, this function
calls malloc() with a zero size allocation request. Standard C
says that the behaviour of malloc() in this case is implementation
defined.
[C99, 7.20.3 says "... If the size of the space requested is zero,
the behavior is implementation-defined: either a null pointer is
returned, or the behavior is as if the size were some nonzero
value, except that the returned pointer shall not be used to
access an object."]
Finesse the issue by over-allocating by one byte. Setting the extra
byte to '\0' may also provide a useful sentinel for text files.
