fscache: teach fscache to use NtQueryDirectoryFile
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Using FindFirstFileExW() requires the OS to allocate a 64K buffer for each
directory and then free it when we call FindClose().  Update fscache to call
the underlying kernel API NtQueryDirectoryFile so that we can do the buffer
management ourselves.  That allows us to allocate a single buffer for the
lifetime of the cache and reuse it for each directory.

This change improves performance of 'git status' by 18% in a repo with ~200K
files and 30k folders.

Documentation for NtQueryDirectoryFile can be found at:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/ddi/content/ntifs/nf-ntifs-ntquerydirectoryfile
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/FileIO/file-attribute-constants
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/fileio/reparse-point-tags

To determine if the specified directory is a symbolic link, inspect the
FileAttributes member to see if the FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT flag is
set. If so, EaSize will contain the reparse tag (this is a so far
undocumented feature, but confirmed by the NTFS developers). To
determine if the reparse point is a symbolic link (and not some other
form of reparse point), test whether the tag value equals the value
IO_REPARSE_TAG_SYMLINK.

The NtQueryDirectoryFile() call works best (and on Windows 8.1 and
earlier, it works *only*) with buffer sizes up to 64kB. Which is 32k
wide characters, so let's use that as our buffer size.
