dirstate: Remove the flat Rust DirstateMap implementation Before this changeset we had two Rust implementations of `DirstateMap`. This removes the "flat" DirstateMap so that the "tree" DirstateMap is always used when Rust enabled. This simplifies the code a lot, and will enable (in the next changeset) further removal of a trait abstraction. This is a performance regression when: * Rust is enabled, and * The repository uses the legacy dirstate-v1 file format, and * For `hg status`, unknown files are not listed (such as with `-mard`) The regression is about 100 milliseconds for `hg status -mard` on a semi-large repository (mozilla-central), from ~320ms to ~420ms. We deem this to be small enough to be worth it. The new dirstate-v2 is still experimental at this point, but we aim to stabilize it (though not yet enable it by default for new repositories) in Mercurial 6.0. Eventually, upgrating repositories to dirsate-v2 will eliminate this regression (and enable other performance improvements). # Background The flat DirstateMap was introduced with the first Rust implementation of the status algorithm. It works similarly to the previous Python + C one, with a single `HashMap` that associates file paths to a `DirstateEntry` (where Python has a dict). We later added the tree DirstateMap where the root of the tree contains nodes for files and directories that are directly at the root of the repository, and nodes for directories can contain child nodes representing the files and directly that *they* contain directly. The shape of this tree mirrors that of the working directory in the filesystem. This enables the status algorithm to traverse this tree in tandem with traversing the filesystem tree, which in turns enables a more efficient algorithm. Furthermore, the new dirstate-v2 file format is also based on a tree of the same shape. The tree DirstateMap can access a dirstate-v2 file without parsing it: binary data in a single large (possibly memory-mapped) bytes buffer is traversed on demand. This allows `DirstateMap` creation to take `O(1)` time. (Mutation works by creating new in-memory nodes with copy-on-write semantics, and serialization is append-mostly.) The tradeoff is that for "legacy" repositories that use the dirstate-v1 file format, parsing that file into a tree DirstateMap takes more time. Profiling shows that this time is dominated by `HashMap`. For a dirstate containing `F` files with an average `D` directory depth, the flat DirstateMap does parsing in `O(F)` number of HashMap operations but the tree DirstateMap in `O(F × D)` operations, since each node has its own HashMap containing its child nodes. This slower costs ~140ms on an old snapshot of mozilla-central, and ~80ms on an old snapshot of the Netbeans repository. The status algorithm is faster, but with `-mard` (when not listing unknown files) it is typically not faster *enough* to compensate the slower parsing. Both Rust implementations are always faster than the Python + C implementation # Benchmark results All benchmarks are run on changeset 98c0408324e6, with repositories that use the dirstate-v1 file format, on a server with 4 CPU cores and 4 CPU threads (no HyperThreading). `hg status` benchmarks show wall clock times of the entire command as the average and standard deviation of serveral runs, collected by https://github.com/sharkdp/hyperfine and reformated. Parsing benchmarks are wall clock time of the Rust function that converts a bytes buffer of the dirstate file into the `DirstateMap` data structure as used by the status algorithm.
