Java GC evicts all SoftReferences when the used heap size comes close to
the maximum heap size. This means peaks in heap memory consumption can
flush the complete WindowCache which was observed to have negative
impact on performance of upload-pack in Gerrit.
Hence add a boolean option core.packedGitUseStrongRefs to allow using
strong references to reference packfile pages cached in the WindowCache.
If this option is set to true Java gc can no longer flush the
WindowCache to free memory if the used heap comes close to the maximum
heap size. On the other hand this provides more predictable performance.

Add the following statistics
- cache hit count and hit ratio
- cache miss count and miss ratio
- count of successful and failed loads
- rate of failed loads
- load, eviction and request count
- average and total load time
Use LongAdder instead of AtomicLong to implement counters in order to
improve scalability.
Optionally expose these metrics via JMX, they are registered with the
platform MBean server if the config option jmx.WindowCacheStats = true
in the user or system level git config.

This avoids polluting hand-crafted user level config with
auto-configured options which might disturb in environments where
the user level config is replicated between different machines.
Add a jgit config as parent of the system level config. Persist
measured timestamp resolutions always in this jgit config and read it
via the user global config. This has the effect that auto-configured
timestamp resolution will be used by default and can be overridden in
either the system level or user level config.
Store the jgit config under the XDG_CONFIG_HOME directory following the
XDG base directory specification [1] in order to ensure that we have
write permissions to persist the file. This has the effect that each OS
user will use its jgit config since they typically use different
XDG_CONFIG_HOME directories.
If the environment variable XDG_CONFIG_HOME is defined the jgit config
file is located at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/jgit/config otherwise the default is
~/.config/jgit/config.
If you want to avoid redundant measurement for different OS users
manually copy the values measured and auto-configured for one OS user to
the system level git config.

Move the handling of cached user and system config to getSystemConfig
and getUserConfig methods and revert the implementation of
openSystemConfig and openUserConfig to the old stateless
implementation.
This ensures the open methods respect the passed-in parent config, which
may be different on each invocation. Additionally, returning a new
instance matches the behavior of the previous implementation of the
default system reader, which downstream callers may be depending on.
Move the implementation of the new caching methods getSystemConfig and
getUserConfig up to SystemReader. This avoids that we break the ABI for
subclasses of SystemReader.
Also see [1] which fixed a similar problem with Gerrit's custom
SystemReader.

access global configuration options which are not in the context of a
single git repository. Cache these configurations in SystemReader and
only reload them if their file metadata observed using FileSnapshot
indicates a modification.

We can't add this method to the super class StoredConfig since that
abstracts from filesystem storage. MockSystemReader.MockConfig is a
StoredConfig and is also used by tests for dfs based storage. Hence
remove this leaky abstraction.
This implies we always use the fallback FileStoreAttributes which means
a config file modification is considered racy within the first 2
seconds. This should not be an issue since typically configs change
rarely and re-reading a config within the racy period is relatively
cheap since configs are small.

To enable persisting the minimal racy threshold per FileStore add a
new config option to the user global git configuration:
- Config section is "filesystem"
- Config subsection is concatenation of
- Java vendor (system property "java.vendor")
- Java version (system property "java.version")
- FileStore's name, on Windows we use the attribute volume:vsn instead
since the name is not necessarily unique.
- separated by '|'
e.g.
"AdoptOpenJDK|1.8.0_212-b03|/dev/disk1s1"
The same prefix is used as for filesystem timestamp resolution, so
both values are stored in the same config section
- The config key for minmal racy threshold is "minRacyThreshold" as a
time value, supported time units are those supported by
DefaultTypedConfigGetter#getTimeUnit
- measure for 3 seconds to limit runtime which depends on hardware, OS
and Java version being used
If the minimal racy threshold is configured for a given FileStore the
configured value is used instead of measuring it.
When the minimal racy threshold was measured it is persisted in the user
global git configuration.
Rename FileStoreAttributeCache to FileStoreAttributes since this class
is now declared public in order to enable exposing all attributes in one
object.
Example:
[filesystem "AdoptOpenJDK|11.0.3|/dev/disk1s1"]
timestampResolution = 7000 nanoseconds
minRacyThreshold = 3440 microseconds

By running FileSnapshotTest#detectFileModified we found that the sum of
measured filesystem timestamp resolution and measured clock resolution
may yield a too small interval after a file has been modified which we
need to consider racily clean. In our tests we didn't find this behavior
on all systems we tested on, e.g. on MacOS using APFS and Java 8 and 11
this effect was not observed.
On Linux (SLES 15, kernel 4.12.14-150.22-default) we collected the
following test results using Java 8 and 11:
In 23-98% of 10000 test runs (depending on filesystem type and Java
version) the test failed, which means the effective interval which needs
to be considered racily clean after a file was modified is larger than
the measured file timestamp resolution.
"delta" is the observed interval after a file has been modified but
FileSnapshot did not yet detect the modification:
"resolution" is the measured sum of file timestamp resolution and clock
resolution seen in Java.
Java version filesystem failures resolution min delta max delta
1.8.0_212-b04 btrfs 98.6% 1 ms 3.6 ms 6.6 ms
1.8.0_212-b04 ext4 82.6% 3 ms 1.1 ms 4.1 ms
1.8.0_212-b04 xfs 23.8% 4 ms 3.7 ms 3.9 ms
1.8.0_212-b04 zfs 23.1% 3 ms 4.8 ms 5.0 ms
11.0.3+7 btrfs 98.1% 3 us 0.7 ms 4.7 ms
11.0.3+7 ext4 98.1% 6 us 0.7 ms 4.7 ms
11.0.3+7 xfs 98.5% 7 us 0.1 ms 8.0 ms
11.0.3+7 zfs 98.4% 7 us 0.7 ms 5.2 ms
Mac OS
1.8.0_212 APFS 0% 1 s
11.0.3+7 APFS 0% 6 us
The observed delta is not distributed according to a normal gaussian
distribution but rather random in the observed range between "min delta"
and "max delta".
Run this test after measuring file timestamp resolution in
FS.FileAttributeCache to auto-configure JGit since it's unclear what
mechanism is causing this effect.
In FileSnapshot#isRacyClean use the maximum of the measured timestamp
resolution and the measured "delta" as explained above to decide if a
given FileSnapshot is to be considered racily clean. Add a 30% safety
margin to ensure we are on the safe side.

Repeat the test 10000 times to get statistics if measured
fsTimestampResolution is working in practice to detect racy git
situations.
Add a class to compute statistics for this test. Log delta between
lastModified and time when FileSnapshot failed to detect modification.
This happens if the racy git limit determined by measuring filesystem
timestamp resolution and clock resolution is too small. If it would be
correct FileSnapshot would always detect modification or mark it
modified if time since modification is smaller than the racy git limit.

Use options
- StandardOpenOption.CREATE to create touched file if not existing
- StandardOpenOption.SYNC to enforce synch of data and meta data changes
- StandardOpenOption.WRITE
Also set mtime explicitly in FileUtils#touch to the current system time.
This should fix that the previous implementation didn't work on
- locally cached Windows network share (CSC-CACHE filesystem) mapped as
a drive
- nfsv4 mounts on Linux
and that it didn't create unborn file like Linux command "touch".
Apache common's and Guava's touch() use the same approach.
Immediately after creating the probe file used to measure timestamp
resolution touch it. This ensures we always use the local system clock
when measuring filesystem timestamp resolution. This should prevent that
clock skew could influence the measured timestamp resolution in case of
a mounted network filesystem.

To enable persisting filesystem timestamp resolution per FileStore add a
new config section to the user global git configuration:
- Config section is "filesystem"
- Config subsection is concatenation of
- Java vendor (system property "java.vm.vendor")
- runtime version (system property "java.vm.version")
- FileStore's name
- separated by '|'
e.g.
"AdoptOpenJDK|1.8.0_212-b03|/dev/disk1s1"
The prefix is needed since some Java versions do not expose the full
timestamp resolution of the underlying filesystem. This may also
depend on the underlying operating system hence concrete key values
may not be portable.
- Config key for timestamp resolution is "timestampResolution" as a time
value, supported time units are those supported by
DefaultTypedConfigGetter#getTimeUnit
If timestamp resolution is already configured for a given FileStore
the configured value is used instead of measuring the resolution.
When timestamp resolution was measured it is persisted in the user
global git configuration.
Example:
[filesystem "AdoptOpenJDK|1.8.0_212-b03|/dev/disk1s1"]
timestampResolution = 1 seconds
If locking the git config file fails retry saving the resolution up to 5
times in order to workaround races with another thread.
In order to avoid stack overflow use the fallback filesystem timestamp
resolution when loading FileBasedConfig which creates itself a
FileSnapshot to help checking if the config changed.
Note:
- on some OSes Java 8,9 truncate to milliseconds or seconds, see
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8177809, fixed in Java 10
- UnixFileAttributes up to Java 12 truncates timestamp resolution to
microseconds when converting the internal representation to FileTime
exposed in the API, see https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8181493
- WindowsFileAttributes also provides only microsecond resolution up to
Java 12
Hence do not attempt to manually configure a higher timestamp resolution
than supported by the Java version being used at runtime.

This change is needed to implement permission aware ref database in
Gerrit: [1], that is a pre-requisite to re-enable Git v2 protocol in
Gerrit: [2].
Background: Last year Git v2 protocol was enabled in Gerrit. The fact,
that JGit layer was not calling ref advertise filter for Git v2
protocol, introduced security vulnerability.
The lesson learned from this security incident: Gerrit should not rely
on ref advertise filter being called by JGit to implement crictical
security checks. Instead, the idea is to use the same approach as
currently used by Google's internal code on googlesource.com that
didn't suffer from this vulnerability: provide a custom repository to
JGit. The repository provides a RefDatabase that is permission-aware
and will only ever return refs that the user has access to.
However, due to hard coded instanceof operator usages in JGit code
base, some tests in Gerrit are failing with: [1] in place. This change
addresses this problem.

If

- packfile size > pack.minSizePreventRacyPack (default is 100 MB)
wait after a new packfile was written and before it is opened until it
cannot be racy anymore.
If a new packfile is accessed while it's still racy at least the pack's
index will be reread by ObjectDirectory.scanPacksImpl(). Hence it may
save resources to wait one tick of the file system timer to avoid this
reloading. On filesystems with a coarse timestamp resolution it may be
beneficial to skip this wait for small packfiles.

FileSnapshot.notRacyClean() assumed a worst case filesystem timestamp
resolution of 2.5 sec (FAT has a resolution of 2 sec). Instead measure
timestamp resolution to avoid unnecessary IO caused by false positives
in detecting the racy git problem caused by finite filesystem timestamp
resolution [1].
Cache the measured resolution per FileStore since timestamp resolution
depends on the respective filesystem type. If timestamp resolution
cannot be measured or fails due to an exception fallback to the worst
case FAT timestamp resolution and avoid caching this value.
Add a 10% safety margin in FileSnapshot.notRacyClean(), though running
FsTest.testFsTimestampResolution() 1000 times which is not using a
safety margin didn't fail on Mac using APFS and Java 8, 11, 12.

Due to finite filesystem timestamp resolution the last modified
timestamp of files cannot detect file changes which happened in the
immediate past (less than one filesystem timer tick ago).
Read and consider file size also, so that differing file size can help
to more accurately detect file changes without reading the file content.
Use bulk read to avoid multiple stat calls to retrieve file attributes.
