The code to read the pack data using the offsets stored in the pack
idx file has been made more carefully check the validity of the

These are automatically named by replacing .pack suffix in the

adding another one soonish.

When 592ce208 (index-pack: use strip_suffix to avoid magic numbers,
2014-06-30) refactored the code to derive names of .idx and .keep
files from the name of .pack file, a copy-and-paste typo crept in,
mistakingly attempting to create and store the keep message file in
the .idx file we just created, instead of .keep file.
As we create the .keep file with O_CREAT|O_EXCL, and we do so after
we write the .idx file, we luckily do not clobber the .idx file, but
because we deliberately ignored EEXIST when creating .keep file
(which is justifiable because only the existence of .keep file
matters), nobody noticed this mistake so far.

If a pack .idx file has a corrupted offset for an object, we
may try to access an offset in the .idx or .pack file that
is larger than the file's size. For the .pack case, we have
use_pack() to protect us, which realizes the access is out
of bounds. But if the corrupted value asks us to look in the
.idx file's secondary 64-bit offset table, we blindly add it
to the mmap'd index data and access arbitrary memory.
We can fix this with a simple bounds-check compared to the
size we found when we opened the .idx file.
Note that there's similar code in index-pack that is
triggered only during "index-pack --verify". To support
both, we pull the bounds-check into a separate function,
which dies when it sees a corrupted file.
It would be nice if we could return an error, so that the
pack code could try to find a good copy of the object
elsewhere. Currently nth_packed_object_offset doesn't have
any way to return an error, but it could probably use "0" as
a sentinel value (since no object can start there). This is
the minimal fix, and we can improve the resilience later on
top.

If our size computation overflows size_t, we may allocate a
much smaller buffer than we expected and overflow it. It's
probably impossible to trigger an overflow in most of these
sites in practice, but it is easy enough convert their
additions and multiplications into overflow-checking
variants. This may be fixing real bugs, and it makes
auditing the code easier.

Each of these cases can be converted to use ALLOC_ARRAY or
REALLOC_ARRAY, which has two advantages:
1. It automatically checks the array-size multiplication
for overflow.
2. It always uses sizeof(*array) for the element-size,
so that it can never go out of sync with the declared
type of the array.

We generally use 32-byte buffers to format git's "type size"
header fields. These should not generally overflow unless
you can produce some truly gigantic objects (and our types
come from our internal array of constant strings). But it is
a good idea to use xsnprintf to make sure this is the case.
Note that we slightly modify the interface to
write_sha1_file_prepare, which nows uses "hdrlen" as an "in"
parameter as well as an "out" (on the way in it stores the
allocated size of the header, and on the way out it returns
the ultimate size of the header).

Since 5a688fe4 ("core.sharedrepository = 0mode" should set, not

NEEDSWORK: this should be renamed to finalize_temp_file() as
"moving" is only a part of what it does, when no patch between
master to pu changes the call sites of this function.
without doing anything about it. Let's do so.
The purpose of this function was not to move but to finalize. The
detail of the primarily implementation of finalizing was to link the
temporary file to its final name and then to unlink, which wasn't
even "moving". The alternative implementation did "move" by calling
rename(2), which is a fun tangent.

When c6458e60 (index-pack: kill union delta_base to save memory,
2015-04-18) attempted to reduce the memory footprint of index-pack,
one of the key thing it did was to keep track of ref-deltas and
ofs-deltas separately.
In fix_unresolved_deltas(), however it forgot that it now wants to
look only at ref deltas in one place. The code allocated an array
for nr_unresolved, which is sum of number of ref- and ofs-deltas
minus nr_resolved, which may be larger or smaller than the number
ref-deltas. Depending on nr_resolved, this was either under or over
allocating.
Also, the old code before this change had to use 'i' and 'n' because
some of the things we see in the (old) deltas[] array we scanned
with 'i' would not make it into the sorted_by_pos[] array in the old
world order, but now because you have only ref delta in a separate
ref_deltas[] array, they increment lock&step. We no longer need
separate variables. And most importantly, we shouldn't pass the
nr_unresolved parameter, as this number does not play a role in the
working of this helper function.

For example, missing emails in commit and tag objects can be demoted to
mere warnings with
git config receive.fsck.missingemail=warn
The value is actually a comma-separated list.
In case that the same key is listed in multiple receive.fsck.<msg-id>
lines in the config, the latter configuration wins (this can happen for
example when both $HOME/.gitconfig and .git/config contain message type
settings).
As git receive-pack does not actually perform the checks, it hands off
the setting to index-pack or unpack-objects in the form of an optional
argument to the --strict option.

* nd/slim-index-pack-memory-usage:
index-pack: fix truncation of off_t in comparison
|
|
Since 45e8a74 (has_sha1_file: re-check pack directory before
giving up, 2013-08-30), we spend extra effort for
has_sha1_file to give the right answer when somebody else is
repacking. Usually this effort does not matter, because
after finding that the object does not exist, the next step
is usually to die().
However, some code paths make a large number of
has_sha1_file checks which are _not_ expected to return 1.
The collision test in index-pack.c is such a case. On a
local system, this can cause a performance slowdown of
around 5%. But on a system with high-latency system calls
(like NFS), it can be much worse.
This patch introduces a "quick" flag to has_sha1_file which
callers can use when they would prefer high performance at
the cost of false negatives during repacks. There may be
other code paths that can use this, but the index-pack one
is the most obviously critical, so we'll start with
switching that one.

Commit c6458e6 (index-pack: kill union delta_base to save
memory, 2015-04-18) refactored the comparison functions used
in sorting and binary searching our delta list. The
resulting code does something like:
int cmp_offsets(off_t a, off_t b)
{
return a - b;
}
This works most of the time, but produces nonsensical
results when the difference between the two offsets is
larger than what can be stored in an "int". This can lead to
unresolved deltas if the packsize is larger than 2G (even on
64-bit systems, an int is still typically 32 bits):
$ git clone git://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev

Resolving deltas: 99% (3808820/3811944), completed with 0 local objects.
fatal: pack has 3124 unresolved deltas
fatal: index-pack failed
We can fix it by doing direct comparisons between the
offsets and returning constants; the callers only care about
the sign of the comparison, not the magnitude.

Memory usage of "git index-pack" has been trimmed by tens of
per-cent.
* nd/slim-index-pack-memory-usage:
index-pack: kill union delta_base to save memory
index-pack: reduce object_entry size to save memory
|
|
Once we know the number of objects in the input pack, we allocate an
array of nr_objects of struct delta_entry. On x86-64, this struct is
32 bytes long. The union delta_base, which is part of struct
delta_entry, provides enough space to store either ofs-delta (8 bytes)
or ref-delta (20 bytes).
Because ofs-delta encoding is more efficient space-wise and more
performant at runtime than ref-delta encoding, Git packers try to use
ofs-delta whenever possible, and it is expected that objects encoded
as ref-delta are minority.
In the best clone case where no ref-delta object is present, we waste
(20-8) * nr_objects bytes because of this union. That's about 38MB out
of 100MB for deltas[] with 3.4M objects, or 38%. deltas[] would be
around 62MB without the waste.
This patch attempts to eliminate that. deltas[] array is split into
two: one for ofs-delta and one for ref-delta. Many functions are also
duplicated because of this split. With this patch, ofs_deltas[] array
takes 51MB. ref_deltas[] should remain unallocated in clone case (0
bytes). This array grows as we see ref-delta. We save about half in
this case, or 25% of total bookkeeping.
The saving is more than the calculation above because some padding in
the old delta_entry struct is removed. ofs_delta_entry is 16 bytes,
including the 4 bytes padding. That's 13MB for padding, but packing
the struct could break platforms that do not support unaligned
access. If someone on 32-bit is really low on memory and only deals
with packs smaller than 2G, using 32-bit off_t would eliminate the
padding and save 27MB on top.
A note about ofs_deltas allocation. We could use ref_deltas memory
allocation strategy for ofs_deltas. But that probably just adds more
overhead on top. ofs-deltas are generally the majority (1/2 to 2/3) in
any pack. Incremental realloc may lead to too many memcpy. And if we
preallocate, say 1/2 or 2/3 of nr_objects initially, the growth rate
of ALLOC_GROW() could make this array larger than nr_objects, wasting
more memory.

For each object in the input pack, we need one struct object_entry. On
x86-64, this struct is 64 bytes long. Although:
- The 8 bytes for delta_depth and base_object_no are only useful when
show_stat is set. And it's never set unless someone is debugging.
- The three fields hdr_size, type and real_type take 4 bytes each
even though they never use more than 4 bits.
By moving delta_depth and base_object_no out of struct object_entry
and make the other 3 fields one byte long instead of 4, we shrink 25%
of this struct.
On a 3.4M object repo (*) that's about 53MB. The saving is less
impressive compared to index-pack memory use for basic bookkeeping (**),
about 16%.
(*) linux-2.6.git already has 4M objects as of v3.19-rc7 so this is
not an unrealistic number of objects that we have to deal with.
(**) 3.4M * (sizeof(object_entry) + sizeof(delta_entry)) = 311MB

When fsck'ing an incoming pack, we need to fsck objects that cannot be
read via read_sha1_file() because they are not local yet (and might even
be rejected if transfer.fsckobjects is set to 'true').
For commits, there is a hack in place: we basically cache commit
objects' buffers anyway, but the same is not true, say, for tag objects.
By refactoring fsck_object() to take the object buffer and size as
optional arguments -- optional, because we still fall back to the
previous method to look at the cached commit objects if the caller
passes NULL -- we prepare the machinery for the upcoming handling of tag
objects.
The assumption that such buffers are inherently NUL terminated is now
wrong, of course, hence we pass the size of the buffer so that we can
add a sanity check later, to prevent running past the end of the buffer.

When we are resolving deltas in an indexed pack, we do it by
first selecting a potential base (either one stored in full
in the pack, or one created by resolving another delta), and
then resolving any deltas that use that base. When we
resolve a particular delta, we flip its "real_type" field
from OBJ_{REF,OFS}_DELTA to whatever the real type is.
We assume that traversing the objects this way will visit
each delta only once. This is correct for most packs; we
visit the delta only when we process its base, and each
object (and thus each base) appears only once. However, if a
base object appears multiple times in the pack, we will try
to resolve any deltas based on it once for each instance.
We can detect this case by noting that a delta we are about
to resolve has already had its real_type field flipped, and
we already do so with an assert(). However, if multiple
threads are in use, we may race with another thread on
comparing and flipping the field. We need to synchronize the
access.
The right mechanism for doing this is a compare-and-swap (we
atomically "claim" the delta for our own and find out
whether our claim was successful). We can implement this
in C by using a pthread mutex to protect the operation. This
is not the fastest way of doing a compare-and-swap; many
processors provide instructions for this, and gcc and other
compilers provide builtins to access them. However, some
experiments showed that lock contention does not cause a
significant slowdown here. Adding c-a-s support for many
compilers would increase the maintenance burden (and we
would still end up including the pthread version as a
fallback).
Note that we only need to touch the OBJ_REF_DELTA codepath
here. An OBJ_OFS_DELTA object points to its base using an
offset, and therefore has only one base, even if another
copy of that base object appears in the pack (we do still
touch it briefly because the setting of real_type is
factored out of resolve_data).

These two are almost the same function, with the exception
that has_extension only matches if there is content before
the suffix. So ends_with(".exe", ".exe") is true, but
has_extension would not be.
This distinction does not matter to any of the callers,
though, and we can just replace uses of has_extension with
ends_with. We prefer the "ends_with" name because it is more
generic, and there is nothing about the function that
requires it to be used for file extensions.

Most callsites which use the commit buffer try to use the
cached version attached to the commit, rather than
re-reading from disk. Unfortunately, that interface provides
only a pointer to the NUL-terminated buffer, with no
indication of the original length.
For the most part, this doesn't matter. People do not put
NULs in their commit messages, and the log code is happy to
treat it all as a NUL-terminated string. However, some code
paths do care. For example, when checking signatures, we
want to be very careful that we verify all the bytes to
avoid malicious trickery.
This patch just adds an optional "size" out-pointer to
get_commit_buffer and friends. The existing callers all pass
NULL (there did not seem to be any obvious sites where we
could avoid an immediate strlen() call, though perhaps with
some further refactoring we could).

importantly, it abstracts the concept of freeing the buffer,
which will make it easier to change later.
Note that we also need to provide a "detach" mechanism for a
tricky case in index-pack. We are passed a buffer for the
object generated by processing the incoming pack. If we are
not using --strict, we just calculate the sha1 on that
buffer and return, leaving the caller to free it. But if we
are using --strict, we actually attach that buffer to an
object, pass the object to the fsck functions, and then
detach the buffer from the object again (so that the caller
can free it as usual). In this case, we don't want to free
the buffer ourselves, but just make sure it is no longer
associated with the commit.
Note that we are making the assumption here that the
attach/detach process does not impact the buffer at all
(e.g., it is never reallocated or modified). That holds true
now, and we have no plans to change that. However, as we
abstract the commit_buffer code, this dependency becomes
less obvious. So when we detach, let's also make sure that
we get back the same buffer that we gave to the
commit_buffer code.
