When we try to load an object from disk and fail, our
general strategy is to see if we can get it from somewhere
else (e.g., a loose object). That lets users fix corruption
problems by copying known-good versions of objects into the
object database.
We already handle the case where we were not able to read
the delta from disk. However, when we find that the delta we
read does not apply, we simply die. This case is harder to
trigger, as corruption in the delta data itself would
trigger a crc error from zlib. However, a corruption that
pointed us at the wrong delta base might cause it.
We can do the same "fail and try to find the object
elsewhere" trick instead of dying. This not only gives us a
chance to recover, but also puts us on code paths that will
alert the user to the problem (with the current message,
they do not even know which sha1 caused the problem).
Note that unlike some other pack corruptions, we do not
recover automatically from this case when doing a repack.
There is nothing apparently wrong with the delta, as it
points to a valid, accessible object, and we realize the
error only when the resulting size does not match up. And in
theory, one could even have a case where the corrupted size
is the same, and the problem would only be noticed by
recomputing the sha1.
We can get around this by recomputing the deltas with
--no-reuse-delta, which our test does (and this is probably
good advice for anyone recovering from pack corruption).

5f44324 (core: log offset pack data accesses happened - 2011-07-06)
provides a way to observe pack access patterns via a config
switch. Setting an environment variable looks more obvious than a
config var, especially when you just need to _observe_, and more
inline with other tracing knobs we have.
Document it as it may be useful for remote troubleshooting.

sha1_object_info() returns -1 (OBJ_BAD) if it cannot find the object
for some reason, which suggests that it wants the _caller_ to report
this error. However, part of its work happens in
sha1_loose_object_info, which _does_ report errors itself. This is
doubly strange because:
* packed_object_info(), which is the other half of the duo, does _not_
report this.
* In the event that an object is packed and pruned while
sha1_object_info_extended() goes looking for it, we would
erroneously show the error -- even though the code of the latter
function purports to handle this case gracefully.
* A caller might invoke sha1_object_info() to find the type of an
object even if that object is not known to exist.
Silence this error. The others remain untouched as a corrupt object
is a much more grave error than it merely being absent.

* tr/unpack-entry-use-after-free-fix:
unpack_entry: avoid freeing objects in base cache
|
|
In the !delta_data error path of unpack_entry(), we run free(base).
This became a window for use-after-free() in abe601b (sha1_file:
remove recursion in unpack_entry, 2013-03-27), as follows:
Before abe601b, we got the 'base' from cache_or_unpack_entry(..., 0);
keep_cache=0 tells it to also remove that entry. So the 'base' is at
this point not cached, and freeing it in the error path is the right
thing.
After abe601b, the structure changed: we use a three-phase approach
where phase 1 finds the innermost base or a base that is already in
the cache. In phase 3 we therefore know that all bases we unpack are
not part of the delta cache yet. (Observe that we pop from the cache
in phase 1, so this is also true for the very first base.) So we make
no further attempts to look up the bases in the cache, and just call
add_delta_base_cache() on every base object we have assembled.
But the !delta_data error path remained unchanged, and now calls
free() on a base that has already been entered in the cache. This
means that there is a use-after-free if we later use the same base
again.
So remove that free(); we are still going to use that data.

Similar to the recursion in packed_object_info(), this leads to
problems on stack-space-constrained systems in the presence of long
delta chains.
We proceed in three phases:
1. Dig through the delta chain, saving each delta object's offsets and
size on an ad-hoc stack.
2. Unpack the base object at the bottom.
3. Unpack and apply the deltas from the stack.

If two processes are racing to create the same directory tree, they
will both see that the directory doesn't exist, both try to mkdir(),
and one of them will fail. This is okay, as we only care that the
directory gets created. So, we add a check for EEXIST from mkdir,
and continue when the directory exists, taking the same codepath as
the case where the earlier stat() succeeds and finds a directory.

packed_object_info() and packed_delta_info() were mutually recursive.
The former would handle ordinary types and defer deltas to the latter;
the latter would use the former to resolve the delta base.
This arrangement, however, leads to trouble with threaded index-pack
and long delta chains on platforms where thread stacks are small, as
happened on OS X (512kB thread stacks by default) with the chromium
repo.
The task of the two functions is not all that hard to describe without
any recursion, however. It proceeds in three steps:
- determine the representation type and size, based on the outermost
object (delta or not)
- follow through the delta chain, if any
- determine the object type from what is found at the end of the delta
chain
The only complication stems from the error recovery. If parsing fails
at any step, we want to mark that object (within the pack) as bad and
try getting the corresponding SHA1 from elsewhere. If that also
fails, we want to repeat this process back up the delta chain until we
find a reasonable solution or conclude that there is no way to
reconstruct the object. (This is conveniently checked by t5303.)
To achieve that within the pack, we keep track of the entire delta
chain in a stack. When things go sour, we process that stack from the
top, marking entries as bad and attempting to re-resolve by sha1. To
avoid excessive malloc(), the stack starts out with a small
stack-allocated array. The choice of 64 is based on the default of
pack.depth, which is 50, in the hope that it covers "most" delta
chains without any need for malloc().
It's much harder to make the actual re-resolving by sha1 nonrecursive,
so we skip that. If you can't afford *that* recursion, your
corruption problems are more serious than your stack size problems.

prepare_packed_git_one() is modified to allow count-objects to hook a
report function to so we don't need to duplicate the pack searching
logic in count-objects.c. When report_pack_garbage is NULL, the
overhead is insignificant.
The garbage is reported with warning() instead of error() in packed
garbage case because it's not an error to have garbage. Loose garbage
is still reported as errors and will be converted to warnings later.

Traditionally, all the callers of check_sha1_signature() first
called read_sha1_file() to prepare the whole object data in core,
and called this function. The function is used to revalidate what
we read from the object database actually matches the object name we
used to ask for the data from the object database.
Update the API to allow callers to pass NULL as the object data, and
have the function read and hash the object data using streaming API
to recompute the object name, without having to hold everything in
core at the same time. This is most useful in parse_object() that
parses a blob object, because this caller does not have to keep the
actual blob data around in memory after a "struct blob" is returned.

Because git's object format requires us to specify the
number of bytes in the object in its header, we must know
the size before streaming a blob into the object database.
This is not a problem when adding a regular file, as we can
get the size from stat(). However, when filters are in use
(such as autocrlf, or the ident, filter, or eol
gitattributes), we have no idea what the ultimate size will
be.
The current code just punts on the whole issue and ignores
filter configuration entirely for files larger than
core.bigfilethreshold. This can generate confusing results
if you use filters for large binary files, as the filter
will suddenly stop working as the file goes over a certain
size. Rather than try to handle unknown input sizes with
streaming, this patch just turns off the streaming
optimization when filters are in use.
This has a slight performance regression in a very specific
case: if you have autocrlf on, but no gitattributes, a large
binary file will avoid the streaming code path because we
don't know beforehand whether it will need conversion or
not. But if you are handling large binary files, you should
be marking them as such via attributes (or at least not
using autocrlf, and instead marking your text files as
such). And the flip side is that if you have a large
_non_-binary file, there is a correctness improvement;
before we did not apply the conversion at all.
The first half of the new t1051 script covers these failures
on input. The second half tests the matching output code
paths. These already work correctly, and do not need any
adjustment.

Since 3ba7a065527a (A loose object is not corrupt if it
cannot be read due to EMFILE), "git fsck" on a repository with an empty
loose object file complains with the error message
fatal: failed to read object <sha1>: Invalid argument
This comes from a failure of mmap on this empty file, which sets errno to
EINVAL. Instead of calling xmmap on empty file, we display a clean error
message ourselves, and return a NULL pointer. The new message is
error: object file .git/objects/09/<rest-of-sha1> is empty
fatal: loose object <sha1> (stored in .git/objects/09/<rest-of-sha1>) is corrupt

Commit f7c22cc (always start looking up objects in the last used pack
first - 2007-05-30) introduce a static packed_git* pointer as an
optimization. The kept pointer however may become invalid if
free_pack_by_name() happens to free that particular pack.
Current code base does not access packs after calling
free_pack_by_name() so it should not be a problem. Anyway, move the
pointer out so that free_pack_by_name() can reset it to avoid running
into troubles in future.

These can happen if another process simultaneously prunes a
pack. But that is not usually an error condition, because a
properly-running prune should have repacked the object into
a new pack. So we will notice that the pack has disappeared
unexpectedly, print a message, try other packs (possibly
after re-scanning the list of packs), and find it in the new
pack.

It's possible that while pack-objects is running, a
simultaneously running prune process might delete a pack
that we are interested in. Because we load the pack indices
early on, we know that the pack contains our item, but by
the time we try to open and map it, it is gone.
Since c715f78, we already protect against this in the normal
object access code path, but pack-objects accesses the packs
at a lower level. In the normal access path, we call
find_pack_entry, which will call find_pack_entry_one on each
pack index, which does the actual lookup. If it gets a hit,
we will actually open and verify the validity of the
matching packfile (using c715f78's is_pack_valid). If we
can't open it, we'll issue a warning and pretend that we
didn't find it, causing us to go on to the next pack (or on
to loose objects).
Furthermore, we will cache the descriptor to the opened
packfile. Which means that later, when we actually try to
access the object, we are likely to still have that packfile
opened, and won't care if it has been unlinked from the
filesystem.
Notice the "likely" above. If there is another pack access
in the interim, and we run out of descriptors, we could
close the pack. And then a later attempt to access the
closed pack could fail (we'll try to re-open it, of course,
but it may have been deleted). In practice, this doesn't
happen because we tend to look up items and then access them
immediately.
Pack-objects does not follow this code path. Instead, it
accesses the packs at a much lower level, using
find_pack_entry_one directly. This means we skip the
is_pack_valid check, and may end up with the name of a
packfile, but no open descriptor.
We can add the same is_pack_valid check here. Unfortunately,
the access patterns of pack-objects are not quite as nice
for keeping lookup and object access together. We look up
each object as we find out about it, and the only later when
writing the packfile do we necessarily access it. Which
means that the opened packfile may be closed in the interim.
In practice, however, adding this check still has value, for
three reasons.
1. If you have a reasonable number of packs and/or a
reasonable file descriptor limit, you can keep all of
your packs open simultaneously. If this is the case,
then the race is impossible to trigger.
2. Even if you can't keep all packs open at once, you
may end up keeping the deleted one open (i.e., you may
get lucky).
3. The race window is shortened. You may notice early that
the pack is gone, and not try to access it. Triggering
the problem without this check means deleting the pack
any time after we read the list of index files, but
before we access the looked-up objects. Triggering it
with this check means deleting the pack means deleting
the pack after we do a lookup (and successfully access
the packfile), but before we access the object. Which
is a smaller window.
