2025-09-04alloc: fix dangling pointer in alloc_state cleanupノウラ | Flare1-2/+2
All callers of clear_alloc_state() immediately free what they cleared, so currently it does not hurt anybody that the alloc_state is left in an unreusable state, but it is an error-prone API. Replace it with a new function that clears but in addition frees the structure, as well as NULLing the pointer that points at it and adjust existing callers. As it is a moral equivalent of FREE_AND_NULL(), except that what it frees has internal structure that needs to be cleaned, allow the helper to be called twice in a row, by making a call with a pointer to a pointer variable that already is NULLed. While at it, rename allocate_alloc_state() and name the new function alloc_state_free_and_null(), to follow more closely the function naming convention specified in the CodingGuidelines (namely, functions about S are named with S_ prefix and then verb).

2023-07-05git-compat-util: move alloc macros to git-compat-util.hCalvin Wan1-75/+0
alloc_nr, ALLOC_GROW, and ALLOC_GROW_BY are commonly used macros for dynamic array allocation. Moving these macros to git-compat-util.h with the other alloc macros focuses alloc.[ch] to allocation for Git objects and additionally allows us to remove inclusions to alloc.h from files that solely used the above macros.

2023-02-23alloc.h: move ALLOC_GROW() functions from cache.hElijah Newren1-0/+75
This allows us to replace includes of cache.h with includes of the much smaller alloc.h in many places. It does mean that we also need to add includes of alloc.h in a number of C files. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2022-04-01alloc.[ch]: remove alloc_report() functionÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-1/+0
The alloc_report() function has been orphaned since its introduction in 855419f764a (Add specialized object allocator, 2006-06-19), it appears to have been used for demonstration purposes in that commit message. These might be handy to manually use in a debugger, but keeping them and the "count" member of "alloc_state" just for that doesn't seem worth it.

2020-06-17object: drop parsed_object_pool->commit_countAbhishek Kumar1-1/+1
14ba97f8 (alloc: allow arbitrary repositories for alloc functions, 2018-05-15) introduced parsed_object_pool->commit_count to keep count of commits per repository and was used to assign commit->index. However, commit-slab code requires commit->index values to be unique and a global count would be correct, rather than a per-repo count. Let's introduce a static counter variable, `parsed_commits_count` to keep track of parsed commits so far. As commit_count has no use anymore, let's also drop it from the struct.

2019-01-27object_as_type: initialize commit-graph-related fields of 'struct commit'SZEDER Gábor1-1/+1
When the commit graph and generation numbers were introduced in commits 177722b344 (commit: integrate commit graph with commit parsing, 2018-04-10) and 83073cc994 (commit: add generation number to struct commit, 2018-04-25), they tried to make sure that the corresponding 'graph_pos' and 'generation' fields of 'struct commit' are initialized conservatively, as if the commit were not included in the commit-graph file. Alas, initializing those fields only in alloc_commit_node() missed the case when an object that happens to be a commit is first looked up via lookup_unknown_object(), and is then later converted to a 'struct commit' via the object_as_type() helper function (either calling it directly, or as part of a subsequent lookup_commit() call). Consequently, both of those fields incorrectly remain set to zero, which means e.g. that the commit is present in and is the first entry of the commit-graph file. This will result in wrong timestamp, parent and root tree hashes, if such a 'struct commit' instance is later filled from the commit-graph. Extract the initialization of 'struct commit's fields from alloc_commit_node() into a helper function, and call it from object_as_type() as well, to make sure that it properly initializes the two commit-graph-related fields, too. With this helper function it is hopefully less likely that any new fields added to 'struct commit' in the future would remain uninitialized. With this change alloc_commit_index() won't have any remaining callers outside of 'alloc.c', so mark it as static.

2018-08-15alloc: make allocate_alloc_state and clear_alloc_state more consistentElijah Newren1-1/+1
Since both functions are using the same data type, they should either both refer to it as void *, or both use the real type (struct alloc_state *). Opt for the latter.

2018-05-16alloc: allow arbitrary repositories for alloc functionsStefan Beller1-0/+19
We have to convert all of the alloc functions at once, because alloc_report uses a funky macro for reporting. It is better for the sake of mechanical conversion to convert multiple functions at once rather than changing the structure of the reporting function. We record all memory allocation in alloc.c, and free them in clear_alloc_state, which is called for all repositories except the_repository.
