Increase the safety factor to 2.5x for extra safety if max of measured
timestamp resolution and measured minimal racy threshold is < 100ms, use
1.25 otherwise since for large filesystem resolution values the
influence of finite resolution of the system clock should be negligible.
Before, not yet using the newly introduced minRacyThreshold measurement,
the threshold was 1.1x FS resolution, and we could issue the
following sequence of events,
start
create-file
read-file (currentTime)
end
which had the following timestamps:
create-file 1564589081998
start 1564589082002
read 1564589082003
end 1564589082004
In this case, the difference between create-file and read is 5ms,
which exceeded the 4ms FS resolution, even though the events together
took just 2ms of runtime.
Reproduce with:
bazel test --runs_per_test=100 \
//org.eclipse.jgit.test:org_eclipse_jgit_internal_storage_file_FileSnapshotTest
The file system timestamp resolution is 4ms in this case.
This code assumes that the kernel and the JVM use the same clock that
is synchronized with the file system clock. This seems plausible,
given the resolution of System.currentTimeMillis() and the latency for
a gettimeofday system call (typically ~1us), but it would be good to
justify this with specifications.
Also cover a source of flakiness: if the test runs under extreme load,
then we could have
start
create-file
<long delay>
read
end
which would register as an unmodified file. Avoid this by skipping the
test if end-start is too big.
[msohn]:
- downported from master to stable-5.1
- skip test if resolution is below 10ms
- adjust safety factor to 1.25 for resolutions above 100ms

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 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.

Measure granularity of timestamps stored in the filesystem by setting
and then getting lastModified timestamp until the read value changed.
Increase increment exponentially to limit number of iterations starting
with 1 microsecond since Java's FileTime (up to Java 12) truncates
timestamps to 1 microsecond resolution. The chosen algorithm yields 2000
steps between 1 ms and 2.5 s.
Also measure clock resolution and add that for the total timestamp
resolution. This avoids systematic measurement errors introduced by
doing IO to touch a file.

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.

If the attributes of FileSnapshot don't detect modification of a
packfile read the packfile's checksum and compare it against the
checksum cached in the loaded packfile.
Since reading the checksum needs less IO than reloading the complete
packfile this may help to reduce the overhead to detect modficiation
when a gc completes while ObjectDirectory scans for packfiles in another
thread.

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.

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).
Some filesystems expose unique file identifiers, e.g. inodes in Posix
filesystems which are named filekeys in Java's BasicFileAttributes. Use
them as another means to detect file modifications based on stat
information.
Running git gc on a repository yields a new packfile with the same id as
a packfile which existed before the gc if these packfiles contain the
same set of objects. The content of the old and the new packfile might
differ if a different PackConfig was used when writing the packfile.
Considering filekeys in FileSnapshot may help to detect such packfile
modifications.

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.
