The threading model for fscache has been to have a single, global cache.
This puts requirements on it to be thread safe so that callers like
preload-index can call it from multiple threads. This was implemented
with a single mutex and completion events which introduces contention
between the calling threads.
Simplify the threading model by making fscache thread specific. This allows
us to remove the global mutex and synchronization events entirely and instead
associate a fscache with every thread that requests one. This works well with
the current multi-threading which divides the cache entries into blocks with
a separate thread processing each block.
At the end of each worker thread, if there is a fscache on the primary
thread, merge the cached results from the worker into the primary thread
cache. This enables us to reuse the cache later especially when scanning for
untracked files.
In testing, this reduced the time spent in preload_index() by about 25% and
also reduced the CPU utilization significantly. On a repo with ~200K files,
it reduced overall status times by ~12%.

Teach read_directory_recursive() and add_excludes() to
be aware of optional fscache and avoid trying to open()
and fstat() non-existant ".gitignore" files in every
directory in the worktree.
The current code in add_excludes() calls open() and then
fstat() for a ".gitignore" file in each directory present
in the worktree. Change that when fscache is enabled to
call lstat() first and if present, call open().
This seems backwards because both lstat needs to do more
work than fstat. But when fscache is enabled, fscache will
already know if the .gitignore file exists and can completely
avoid the IO calls. This works because of the lstat diversion
to mingw_lstat when fscache is enabled.
This reduced status times on a 350K file enlistment of the
Windows repo on a NVMe SSD by 0.25 seconds.

Checking the work tree status is quite slow on Windows, due to slow
`lstat()` emulation (git calls `lstat()` once for each file in the
index). Windows operating system APIs seem to be much better at scanning
the status of entire directories than checking single files.
Add an `lstat()` implementation that uses a cache for lstat data. Cache
misses read the entire parent directory and add it to the cache.
Subsequent `lstat()` calls for the same directory are served directly
from the cache.
Also implement `opendir()`/`readdir()`/`closedir()` so that they create
and use directory listings in the cache.
The cache doesn't track file system changes and doesn't plug into any
modifying file APIs, so it has to be explicitly enabled for git functions
that don't modify the working copy.
Note: in an earlier version of this patch, the cache was always active and
tracked file system changes via ReadDirectoryChangesW. However, this was
much more complex and had negative impact on the performance of modifying
git commands such as 'git checkout'.

Since Git LFS v3.5.x implicitly dropped Windows 7 support, we now want

Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
Git LFS is now built with Go 1.21 which no longer supports Windows 7.
However, Git for Windows still wants to support Windows 7.
Ideally, Git LFS would re-introduce Windows 7 support until Git for
Windows drops support for Windows 7, but that's not going to happen:
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/4996#issuecomment-2176152565
The next best thing we can do is to let the users know what is
happening, and how to get out of their fix, at least.
This is not quite as easy as it would first seem because programs
compiled with Go 1.21 or newer will simply throw an exception and fail
with an Access Violation on Windows 7.
The only way I found to address this is to replicate the logic from Go's
very own `version` command (which can determine the Go version with
which a given executable was built) to detect the situation, and in that
case offer a helpful error message.

The `__MINGW64__` constant is defined, surprise, surprise, only when
building for a 64-bit CPU architecture.
Therefore using it as a guard to define `_POSIX_C_SOURCE` (so that
`localtime_r()` is declared, among other functions) is not enough, we
also need to check `__MINGW32__`.
Technically, the latter constant is defined even for 64-bit builds. But
let's make things a bit easier to understand by testing for both
constants.
Making it so fixes this compile warning (turned error in GCC v14.1):

We even have to silence some GCC warnings in non-DEVELOPER mode. For
example, the `-Wno-array-bounds` flag is needed because in `-O2` builds,
trying to call `NtCurrentTeb()` (which `_mi_thread_id()` does on

Use the data type bool and its values true and false to document the

whether there are platforms that claim support for C99, as tested by
7bc341e21b (git-compat-util: add a test balloon for C99 support,
2021-12-01), but still lack that header for some reason.
A fallback based on a wider type, e.g. int, would have to deal with
comparisons somehow to emulate that any non-zero value is true:
bool b1 = 1;
bool b2 = 2;
if (b1 == b2) puts("This is true.");
int i1 = 1;
int i2 = 2;
if (i1 == i2) puts("Not printed.");
#define BOOLEQ(a, b) (!(a) == !(b))
if (BOOLEQ(i1, i2)) puts("This is true.");
So we'd be better off using bool everywhere without a fallback, if
possible. That's why this patch doesn't include any.

Add a new "const struct config_context *ctx" arg to config_fn_t to hold
additional information about the config iteration operation.
config_context has a "struct key_value_info kvi" member that holds
metadata about the config source being read (e.g. what kind of config
source it is, the filename, etc). In this series, we're only interested
in .kvi, so we could have just used "struct key_value_info" as an arg,
but config_context makes it possible to add/adjust members in the future
without changing the config_fn_t signature. We could also consider other
ways of organizing the args (e.g. moving the config name and value into
config_context or key_value_info), but in my experiments, the
incremental benefit doesn't justify the added complexity (e.g. a
config_fn_t will sometimes invoke another config_fn_t but with a
different config value).
In subsequent commits, the .kvi member will replace the global "struct
config_reader" in config.c, making config iteration a global-free
operation. It requires much more work for the machinery to provide
meaningful values of .kvi, so for now, merely change the signature and
call sites, pass NULL as a placeholder value, and don't rely on the arg
in any meaningful way.
Most of the changes are performed by
contrib/coccinelle/config_fn_ctx.pending.cocci, which, for every
config_fn_t:
- Modifies the signature to accept "const struct config_context *ctx"
- Passes "ctx" to any inner config_fn_t, if needed
- Adds UNUSED attributes to "ctx", if needed
Most config_fn_t instances are easily identified by seeing if they are
called by the various config functions. Most of the remaining ones are
manually named in the .cocci patch. Manual cleanups are still needed,
but the majority of it is trivial; it's either adjusting config_fn_t
that the .cocci patch didn't catch, or adding forward declarations of
"struct config_context ctx" to make the signatures make sense.
The non-trivial changes are in cases where we are invoking a config_fn_t
outside of config machinery, and we now need to decide what value of
"ctx" to pass. These cases are:
- trace2/tr2_cfg.c:tr2_cfg_set_fl()
This is indirectly called by git_config_set() so that the trace2
machinery can notice the new config values and update its settings
using the tr2 config parsing function, i.e. tr2_cfg_cb().
- builtin/checkout.c:checkout_main()
This calls git_xmerge_config() as a shorthand for parsing a CLI arg.
This might be worth refactoring away in the future, since
git_xmerge_config() can call git_default_config(), which can do much
more than just parsing.
Handle them by creating a KVI_INIT macro that initializes "struct
key_value_info" to a reasonable default, and use that to construct the
"ctx" arg.

time(2) on glib 2.31+, especially on Linux, goes out of sync with

use gettimeofday(2) in its implementation.
* pe/time-use-gettimeofday:
git-compat-util: use gettimeofday(2) for time(2)
Use gettimeofday instead of time(NULL) to get current time.
This avoids clock skew on glibc 2.31+ on Linux, where in the
first 1 to 2.5 ms of every second, time(NULL) returns a
value that is one less than the tv_sec part of
higher-resolution timestamps such as those returned by
gettimeofday or timespec_get, or those in the file system.
There are similar clock skew problems on AIX and MS-Windows,
which have problems in the first 5 ms of every second.
Without this patch, users can observe Git issuing a
timestamp T+1 before it issues timestamp T, because Git
sometimes uses time(NULL) or time(&t) and sometimes uses
higher-res methods like gettimeofday. Although strictly
speaking users should tolerate this behavior because a
superuser can always change the clock back, this is a
quality of implementation issue and users naturally expect
Git to issue timestamps in increasing order unless the
superuser has fiddled with the system clock.
This patch always uses gettimeofday(...) instead of time(...),
and I have verified that the resulting .o files never refer
to the name 'time'. A trickier patch would change only
those calls for which timestamp monotonicity is user-visible.
Such a patch would require more expertise about Git internals,
though, and would be harder to maintain later.
Another possibility would be to change Git's documentation
to warn users that Git does not always issue timestamps in
increasing order. However, Git users would likely be either
dismayed by this possibility, or confused by the level of
detail that any such documentation would require.
Yet another possibility would be to fix the Linux kernel so
that the time syscall is consistent with the other timestamp
syscalls. I suppose this has not been done due to
performance implications. (Git's use of timestamps is rare
enough that performance is not a significant consideration
for git.) However, this wouldn't fix Git's problem on older
Linux kernels, or on AIX or MS-Windows.

mingw: make argv2 in try_shell_exec() non-const
Add a macro for allocating and populating a shallow copy of an array.
It is intended to replace a sequence like this:
ALLOC_ARRAY(dst, n);
COPY_ARRAY(dst, src, n);
With the less repetitve:
DUP_ARRAY(dst, src, n);
It checks whether the types of source and destination are compatible to
ensure the copy can be used safely.
An easier alternative would be to only consider the source and return
a void pointer, that could be used like this:
dst = ARRAY_DUP(src, n);
That would be more versatile, as it could be used in declarations as
well. Making it type-safe would require the use of typeof_unqual from
C23, though.
So use the safe and compatible variant for now.

Use __builtin_types_compatible_p to perform a full type check if
possible. Otherwise fall back to the old size comparison, but add a
non-evaluated assignment to catch more type mismatches. It doesn't flag
copies between arrays with different signedness, but that's as close to
a full type check as it gets without the builtin, as far as I can see.

Move the common basic element type check of COPY_ARRAY and MOVE_ARRAY to
a new macro. This reduces code duplication and simplifies adding more
elaborate checks.

When 1819ad327b (grep: fix multibyte regex handling under macOS,
2022-08-26) started to use the native regex library instead of Git's
own (compat/regex/), it lost support for alternation in basic
regular expressions.
Bring it back by enabling the flag REG_ENHANCED on macOS when
compiling basic regular expressions.

Redefining system functions for a few functions did not follow our
usual "implement git_foo() and #define foo(args) git_foo(args)"
pattern, which has broken build for some folks.
