Matt Harbison <matt_harbison@yahoo.com> [Mon, 05 Apr 2021 23:54:54 -0400] rev 46894
tests: skip test-git-interop.t on Windows Casefolding isn't handled in dirstate yet, triggering a bunch of assertions. But while this is more correctly `no-icasefs`, it's more likely to get attention if someone sees it. I'd just rather not have it adding to the noise on Windows for now.

Matt Harbison <matt_harbison@yahoo.com> [Mon, 05 Apr 2021 13:02:51 -0400] rev 46893
contrib: restore the `hg fix` configuration in the examples After decc3bd3f20d, running `black` will DTRT, but running `hg fix` did nothing (unless the example config file was %included, in which case it truncated the file instead of formatting it). I'm not sure why that was happening, but let's not leave a code shredder laying around. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10311

blackbox: fix type error on log rotation on read-only filesystem Grepping around, the code uses either encoding.strtolocal or stringutil.forcebytestr in this situation. No idea which is best. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10293
Thu, 08 Apr 2021 14:38:27 +0200 rust: Remove use of `py.eval()`
Simon Sapin <simon.sapin@octobus.net> [Thu, 08 Apr 2021 14:38:27 +0200] rev 46891
rust: Remove use of `py.eval()` The previous Rust code allocated an intermediate `Vec`, converted that to a Python list, then used `eval` to run Python code that converts that list to a Python set. rust-cpython exposes Rust bindings for Python sets, let’s use that instead to construct a set directly.

Thu, 08 Apr 2021 21:46:54 +0200 rust: Remove the compile-time 'dirstate-tree' feature flag
Simon Sapin <simon.sapin@octobus.net> [Thu, 08 Apr 2021 21:46:54 +0200] rev 46890
rust: Remove the compile-time 'dirstate-tree' feature flag This code has compiler errors since it is not built on CI and nobody has been working on it for some time. We (Octobus) are still pursuing status optimizations based on a tree data structure for the dirstate, but upcoming patches will use a run-time opt-in instead of compile-time, so that at least corresponding Rust code keeps compiling when other changes are made.

Valentin Gatien-Baron <valentin.gatienbaron@gmail.com> [Sun, 13 Sep 2020 22:14:25 -0400] rev 46889
procutil: avoid using os.fork() to implement runbgcommand We ran into the following deadlock: - some command creates an ssh peer, then raises without explicitly closing the peer (hg id + extension in our case) - dispatch catches the exception, calls ui.log('commandfinish', ..) (the sshpeer is still not closed), which calls logtoprocess, which calls procutil.runbgcommand. - in the child of runbgcommand's fork(), between the fork and the exec, the opening of file descriptors triggers a gc which runs the destructor for sshpeer, which waits on ssh's stderr being closed, which never happens since ssh's stderr is held open by the parent of the fork where said destructor hasn't run Remotefilelog appears to have a hack around this deadlock as well. I don't know if there's more subtlety to it, because even though the problem is determistic, it is very fragile, so I didn't manage to reduce it. I can imagine three ways of tackling this problem: 1. don't run any python between fork and exec in runbgcommand 2. make the finalizer harmless after the fork 3. close the peer without relying on gc behavior This commit goes with 1, as forking without exec'ing is tricky in general in a language with gc finalizers. And maybe it's better in the presence of rust threads. A future commit will try 2 or 3. Performance wise: at low memory usage, it's an improvement. At higher memory usage, it's about 2x faster than before when ensurestart=True, but 2x slower when ensurestart=False. Not sure if that matters. The reason for that last bit is that the subprocess.Popen always waits for the execve to finish, and at high memory usage, execve is slow because it deallocates the large page table.
