2013-03-27avoid infinite loop in read_istream_looseJeff King
The read_istream_loose function loops on inflating a chunk of data from an mmap'd loose object. We end the loop when we run out of space in our output buffer, or if we see a zlib error. We need to treat Z_BUF_ERROR specially, though, as it is not fatal; it is just zlib's way of telling us that we need to either feed it more input or give it more output space. It is perfectly normal for us to hit this when we are at the end of our buffer. However, we may also get Z_BUF_ERROR because we have run out of input. In a well-formed object, this should not happen, because we have fed the whole mmap'd contents to zlib. But if the object is truncated or corrupt, we will loop forever, never giving zlib any more data, but continuing to ask it to inflate. We can fix this by considering it an error when zlib returns Z_BUF_ERROR but we still have output space left (which means it must want more input, which we know is a truncation error). It would not be sufficient to just check whether zlib had consumed all the input at the start of the loop, as it might still want to generate output from what is in its internal state.

2013-03-27read_istream_filtered: propagate read error from upstreamJeff King
The filter istream pulls data from an "upstream" stream, running it through a filter function. However, we did not properly notice when the upstream filter yielded an error, and just returned what we had read. Instead, we should propagate the error.

2013-03-27stream_blob_to_fd: detect errors reading from streamJeff King
We call read_istream, but never check its return value for errors. This can lead to us looping infinitely, as we just keep trying to write "-1" bytes (and we do not notice the error, as we simply check that write_in_full reports the same number of bytes we fed it, which of course is also -1).

2012-05-03streaming: void pointer instead of char pointerRené Scharfe
Allow any kind of buffer to be fed to read_istream() without an explicit cast by making it's buf argument a void pointer. It's about arbitrary data, not only characters.

2012-03-07streaming: make streaming-write-entry to be more reusableJunio C Hamano
The static function in entry.c takes a cache entry and streams its blob contents to a file in the working tree. Refactor the logic to a new API function stream_blob_to_fd() that takes an object name and an open file descriptor, so that it can be reused by other callers.

* jc/streaming-filter: streaming: free git_istream upon closing
2011-07-22streaming: free git_istream upon closingJeff King
Kirill Smelkov noticed that post-1.7.6 "git checkout" started leaking tons of memory. The streaming_write_entry function properly calls close_istream(), but that function did not actually free() the allocated git_istream struct. The git_istream struct is totally opaque to calling code, and must be heap-allocated by open_istream. Therefore it's not appropriate for callers to have to free it. This patch makes close_istream() into "close and de-allocate all associated resources". We could add a new "free_istream" call, but there's not much point in letting callers inspect the istream after close. And this patch's semantics make us match fopen/fclose, which is well-known and understood. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-05-26stream filter: add "no more input" to the filtersJunio C Hamano
Some filters may need to buffer the input and look-ahead inside it to decide what to output, and they may consume more than zero bytes of input and still not produce any output. After feeding all the input, pass NULL as input as keep calling stream_filter() to let such filters know there is no more input coming, and it is time for them to produce the remaining output based on the buffered input.

2011-05-26Add streaming filter APIJunio C Hamano
This introduces an API to plug custom filters to an input stream. The caller gets get_stream_filter("path") to obtain an appropriate filter for the path, and then uses it when opening an input stream via open_istream(). After that, the caller can read from the stream with read_istream(), and close it with close_istream(), just like an unfiltered stream. This only adds a "null" filter that is a pass-thru filter, but later changes can add LF-to-CRLF and other filters, and the callers of the streaming API do not have to change.

2011-05-21streaming: a new API to read from the object storeJunio C Hamano
Given an object name, use open_istream() to get a git_istream handle that you can read_istream() from as if you are using read(2) to read the contents of the object, and close it with close_istream() when you are done. Currently, we do not do anything fancy--it just calls read_sha1_file() and keeps the contents in memory as a whole, and carve it out as you request with read_istream().
