progress: simplify "delayed" progress API

2017-08-19T21:01:34Z

We used to expose the full power of the delayed progress API to the callers, so that they can specify, not just the message to show and expected total amount of work that is used to compute the percentage of work performed so far, the percent-threshold parameter P and the delay-seconds parameter N. The progress meter starts to show at N seconds into the operation only if we have not yet completed P per-cent of the total work. Most callers used either (0%, 2s) or (50%, 1s) as (P, N), but there are oddballs that chose more random-looking values like 95%. For a smoother workload, (50%, 1s) would allow us to start showing the progress meter earlier than (0%, 2s), while keeping the chance of not showing progress meter for long running operation the same as the latter. For a task that would take 2s or more to complete, it is likely that less than half of it would complete within the first second, if the workload is smooth. But for a spiky workload whose earlier part is easier, such a setting is likely to fail to show the progress meter entirely and (0%, 2s) is more appropriate. But that is merely a theory. Realistically, it is of dubious value to ask each codepath to carefully consider smoothness of their workload and specify their own setting by passing two extra parameters. Let's simplify the API by dropping both parameters and have everybody use (0%, 2s). Oh, by the way, the percent-threshold parameter and the structure member were consistently misspelled, which also is now fixed ;-) Helped-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

hashmap.h: compare function has access to a data field

2017-06-30T19:49:28Z

When using the hashmap a common need is to have access to caller provided data in the compare function. A couple of times we abuse the keydata field to pass in the data needed. This happens for example in patch-ids.c. This patch changes the function signature of the compare function to have one more void pointer available. The pointer given for each invocation of the compare function must be defined in the init function of the hashmap and is just passed through. Documentation of this new feature is deferred to a later patch. This is a rather mechanical conversion, just adding the new pass-through parameter. However while at it improve the naming of the fields of all compare functions used by hashmaps by ensuring unused parameters are prefixed with 'unused_' and naming the parameters what they are (instead of 'unused' make it 'unused_keydata').

Merge branch 'ab/free-and-null'

2017-06-24T21:28:41Z

A common pattern to free a piece of memory and assign NULL to the pointer that used to point at it has been replaced with a new FREE_AND_NULL() macro. * ab/free-and-null: *.[ch] refactoring: make use of the FREE_AND_NULL() macro coccinelle: make use of the "expression" FREE_AND_NULL() rule coccinelle: add a rule to make "expression" code use FREE_AND_NULL() coccinelle: make use of the "type" FREE_AND_NULL() rule coccinelle: add a rule to make "type" code use FREE_AND_NULL() git-compat-util: add a FREE_AND_NULL() wrapper around free(ptr); ptr = NULL

coccinelle: make use of the "type" FREE_AND_NULL() rule

2017-06-16T19:44:03Z

Apply the result of the just-added coccinelle rule. This manually excludes a few occurrences, mostly things that resulted in many FREE_AND_NULL() on one line, that'll be manually fixed in a subsequent change. Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

diffcore-delta: remove unused parameter to diffcore_count_changes()

2016-11-14T17:24:04Z

The delta_limit parameter to diffcore_count_changes() has been unused since commit ba23bbc8e ("diffcore-delta: make change counter to byte oriented again.", 2006-03-04). Remove the parameter and adjust all callers. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

use QSORT

2016-09-29T22:42:18Z

Apply the semantic patch contrib/coccinelle/qsort.cocci to the code base, replacing calls of qsort(3) with QSORT. The resulting code is shorter and supports empty arrays with NULL pointers. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

pass constants as first argument to st_mult()

2016-08-01T21:01:03Z

The result of st_mult() is the same no matter the order of its arguments. It invokes the macro unsigned_mult_overflows(), which divides the second parameter by the first one. Pass constants first to allow that division to be done already at compile time. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe Reviewed-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
