2014-07-01sha1_file: avoid overrunning alternate object base stringRené Scharfe
While checking if a new alternate object database is a duplicate make sure that old and new base paths have the same length before comparing them with memcmp. This avoids overrunning the buffer of the existing entry if the new one is longer and it stops rejecting foobar/ after foo/ was already added.

Reworded the error message given upon a failure to open an existing loose object file due to e.g. permission issues; it was reported as the object being corrupt, but that is not quite true. * jk/report-fail-to-read-objects-better: open_sha1_file: report "most interesting" errno
2014-05-15open_sha1_file: report "most interesting" errnoJeff King
When we try to open a loose object file, we first attempt to open in the local object database, and then try any alternates. This means that the errno value when we return will be from the last place we looked (and due to the way the code is structured, simply ENOENT if we do not have have any alternates). This can cause confusing error messages, as read_sha1_file checks for ENOENT when reporting a missing object. If errno is something else, we report that. If it is ENOENT, but has_loose_object reports that we have it, then we claim the object is corrupted. For example: $ chmod 0 .git/objects/??/* $ git rev-list --all fatal: loose object b2d6fab18b92d49eac46dc3c5a0bcafabda20131 (stored in .git/objects/b2/d6fab18b92d49eac46dc3c5a0bcafabda20131) is corrupt This patch instead keeps track of the "most interesting" errno we receive during our search. We consider ENOENT to be the least interesting of all, and otherwise report the first error found (so problems in the object database take precedence over ones in alternates). Here it is with this patch: $ git rev-list --all fatal: failed to read object b2d6fab18b92d49eac46dc3c5a0bcafabda20131: Permission denied Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-01-16do not discard revindex when re-preparing packfilesJeff King
When an object lookup fails, we re-read the objects/pack directory to pick up any new packfiles that may have been created since our last read. We also discard any pack revindex structs we've allocated. The discarding is a problem for the pack-bitmap code, which keeps a pointer to the revindex for the bitmapped pack. After the discard, the pointer is invalid, and we may read free()d memory. Other revindex users do not keep a bare pointer to the revindex; instead, they always access it through revindex_for_pack(), which lazily builds the revindex. So one solution is to teach the pack-bitmap code a similar trick. It would be slightly less efficient, but probably not all that noticeable. However, it turns out this discarding is not actually necessary. When we call reprepare_packed_git, we do not throw away our old pack list. We keep the existing entries, and only add in new ones. So there is no safety problem; we will still have the pack struct that matches each revindex. The packfile itself may go away, of course, but we are already prepared to handle that, and it may happen outside of reprepare_packed_git anyway. Throwing away the revindex may save some RAM if the pack never gets reused (about 12 bytes per object). But it also wastes some CPU time (to regenerate the index) if the pack does get reused. It's hard to say which is more valuable, but in either case, it happens very rarely (only when we race with a simultaneous repack). Just leaving the revindex in place is simple and safe both for current and future code. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

When we figure out how many file descriptors to allocate for keeping packfiles open, a system with non-working getrlimit() could cause us to die(), but because we make this call only to get a rough estimate of how many is available and we do not even attempt to use up all file descriptors available ourselves, it is nicer to fall back to a reasonable low value rather than dying. * jh/rlimit-nofile-fallback: get_max_fd_limit(): fall back to OPEN_MAX upon getrlimit/sysconf failure

2014-01-06safe_create_leading_directories(): add new error value SCLD_VANISHEDMichael Haggerty
Add a new possible error result that can be returned by safe_create_leading_directories() and safe_create_leading_directories_const(): SCLD_VANISHED. This value indicates that a file or directory on the path existed at one point (either it already existed or the function created it), but then it disappeared. This probably indicates that another process deleted the directory while we were working. If SCLD_VANISHED is returned, the caller might want to retry the function call, as there is a chance that a new attempt will succeed. Why doesn't safe_create_leading_directories() do the retrying internally? Because an empty directory isn't really ever safe until it holds a file. So even if safe_create_leading_directories() were absolutely sure that the directory existed before it returned, there would be no guarantee that the directory still existed when the caller tried to write something in it.

2014-01-06safe_create_leading_directories(): split on first of multiple slashesMichael Haggerty
If the input path has multiple slashes between path components (e.g., "foo//bar"), then the old code was breaking the path at the last slash, not the first one. So in the above example, the second slash was overwritten with NUL, resulting in the parent directory being sought as "foo/". When stat() is called on "foo/", it fails with ENOTDIR if "foo" exists but is not a directory. This caused the wrong path to be taken in the subsequent logic.

2013-12-26sha1_object_info_extended: provide delta base sha1sJeff King
A caller of sha1_object_info_extended technically has enough information to determine the base sha1 from the results of the call. It knows the pack, offset, and delta type of the object, which is sufficient to find the base. However, the functions to do so are not publicly available, and the code itself is intimate enough with the pack details that it should be abstracted away. We could add a public helper to allow callers to query the delta base separately, but it is simpler and slightly more efficient to optionally grab it along with the rest of the object_info data. For cases where the object is not stored as a delta, we write the null sha1 into the query field. A careful caller could check "oi.whence == OI_PACKED && oi.u.packed.is_delta" before looking at the base sha1, but using the null sha1 provides a simple alternative (and gives a better sanity check for a non-careful caller than simply returning random bytes).

The same issue exists with _SC_OPEN_MAX and sysconf(); restructure the code in a similar way to prepare for a broken sysconf() as well.

2013-11-21drop support for "experimental" loose objectsJeff King
In git v1.4.3, we introduced a new loose object format that encoded some object information outside of the zlib stream. Ultimately the format was dropped in v1.5.3, but we kept the reading side around to help people migrate objects. Each time we open a loose object, we use a heuristic to check whether it is in the normal loose format, or the experimental one. This heuristic is robust in the face of valid data, but it tends to treat corrupted or garbage data as an experimental object. With the regular format, we would notice quickly that zlib's crc does not check out and complain. With the experimental object, we are likely to extract a nonsensical object size and try to allocate a huge buffer, resulting in xmalloc calling "die". This latter behavior is much worse, for two reasons. One, git reports an allocation error when the real error is corruption. And two, the program dies unconditionally, so you cannot even run fsck (which would otherwise ignore the broken object and keep going). We could try to improve the heuristic to err on the side of normal objects in the face of corruption, but there is really little point. The experimental format is long-dead, and was never enabled by default to begin with. We can instead simply remove it. The only affected repository would be one that explicitly set core.legacyheaders in 2007, and then never repacked in the intervening 6 years.

2013-10-28sha1_file.c:create_tmpfile(): Fix race when creating loose object dirsJohan Herland
There are cases (e.g. when running concurrent fetches in a repo) where multiple Git processes concurrently attempt to create loose objects within the same objects/XX/ dir. The creation of the loose object files is (AFAICS) safe from races, but the creation of the objects/XX/ dir in which the loose objects reside is unsafe, for example: Two concurrent fetches - A and B. As part of its fetch, A needs to store 12aaaaa as a loose object. B, on the other hand, needs to store 12bbbbb as a loose object. The objects/12 directory does not already exist. Concurrently, both A and B determine that they need to create the objects/12 directory (because their first call to git_mkstemp_mode() within create_tmpfile() fails witn ENOENT). One of them - let's say A - executes the following mkdir() call before the other. This first call returns success, and A moves on. When B gets around to calling mkdir(), it fails with EEXIST, because A won the race. The mkdir() error causes B to return -1 from create_tmpfile(), which propagates all the way, resulting in the fetch failing with: error: unable to create temporary file: File exists fatal: failed to write object fatal: unpack-objects failed Although it's hard to add a testcase reproducing this issue, it's easy to provoke if we insert a sleep after the if (mkdir(buffer, 0777) || adjust_shared_perm(buffer)) return -1; block, and then run two concurrent "git fetch"es against the same repo. The fix is to simply handle mkdir() failing with EEXIST as a success. If EEXIST is somehow returned for the wrong reasons (because the relevant objects/XX is not a directory, or is otherwise unsuitable for object storage), the following call to adjust_shared_perm(), or ultimately the retried call to git_mkstemp_mode() will fail, and we end up returning error from create_tmpfile() in any case. Note that there are still cases where two users with unsuitable umasks in a shared repo can end up in two races where one user first wins the mkdir() race to create an objects/XX/ directory, and then the other user wins the adjust_shared_perms() race to chmod() that directory, but fails because it is (transiently, until the first users completes its chmod()) unwriteable to the other user. However, (an equivalent of) this race also exists before this patch, and is made no worse by this patch.
