2021-11-10simple-ipc: work around issues with Cygwin's Unix socket emulationLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+22
Cygwin emulates Unix sockets by writing files with custom contents and then marking them as system files. The tricky problem is that while the file is written and its `system` bit is set, it is still identified as a file. This caused test failures when Git is too fast looking for the Unix sockets and then complains that there is a plain file in the way. Let's work around this by adding a delayed retry loop, specifically for Cygwin.

2021-10-06terminal: teach git how to save/restore its terminal settingsLibravatar Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belón2-15/+63
Currently, git will share its console with all its children (unless they create their own), and is therefore possible that any of them that might change the settings for it could affect its operations once completed. Refactor the platform specific functionality to save the terminal settings and expand it to also do so for the output handler. This will allow for the state of the terminal to be saved and restored around a child that might misbehave (ex vi) which will be implemented next.

2021-09-23Makefile: stop hardcoding {command,config}-list.hLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-1/+1
Change various places that hardcode the names of these two files to refer to either $(GENERATED_H), or to a new generated-hdrs target. That target is consistent with the *-objs targets I recently added in 029bac01a8 (Makefile: add {program,xdiff,test,git,fuzz}-objs & objects targets, 2021-02-23).

By doing this refactoring we'll only need to add the new file to the GENERATED_H variable, not EXCEPT_HDRS, the vcbuild/README etc. Hardcoding command-list.h there seems to have been a case of copy/paste programming in 976aaedca0 (msvc: add a Makefile target to pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, 2019-07-29).

2021-09-20simple-ipc: preparations for supporting binary messages.Libravatar Jeff Hostetler2-10/+18
Add `command_len` argument to the Simple IPC API. In my original Simple IPC API, I assumed that the request would always be a null-terminated string of text characters. The `command` argument was just a `const char *`. I found a caller that would like to pass a binary command to the daemon, so I am amending the Simple IPC API to receive `const char *command, size_t command_len` arguments. I considered changing the `command` argument to be a `void *`, but the IPC layer simply passes it to the pkt-line layer which takes a `const char *`, so to avoid confusion I left it as is. Note, the response side has always been a `struct strbuf` which includes the buffer and length, so we already support returning a binary answer. (Yes, it feels a little weird returning a binary buffer in a `strbuf`, but it works.) Signed-off-by: Jeff Hostetler <jeffhost@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2021-09-07tr2: log N parent process names on LinuxLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-17/+132
In 2f732bf15e6 (tr2: log parent process name, 2021-07-21) we started logging parent process names, but only logged all parents on Windows. on Linux only the name of the immediate parent process was logged. Extend the functionality added there to also log full parent chain on Linux. This requires us to lookup "/proc/<getppid()>/stat" instead of "/proc/<getppid()>/comm". The "comm" file just contains the name of the process, but the "stat" file has both that information, and the parent PID of that process, see procfs(5). We parse out the parent PID of our own parent, and recursively walk the chain of "/proc/*/stat" files all the way up the chain. A parent PID of 0 indicates the end of the chain. It's possible given the semantics of Linux's PID files that we end up getting an entirely nonsensical chain of processes. It could happen if e.g. we have a chain of processes like: 1 (init) => 321 (bash) => 123 (git) Let's assume that "bash" was started a while ago, and that as shown the OS has already cycled back to using a lower PID for us than our parent process. In the time it takes us to start up and get to trace2_collect_process_info(TRACE2_PROCESS_INFO_STARTUP) our parent process might exit, and be replaced by an entirely different process! We'd racily look up our own getppid(), but in the meantime our parent would exit, and Linux would have cycled all the way back to starting an entirely unrelated process as PID 321. If that happens we'll just silently log incorrect data in our ancestry chain. Luckily we don't need to worry about this except in this specific cycling scenario, as Linux does not have PID randomization. It appears it once did through a third-party feature, but that it was removed around 2006[1]. For anyone worried about this edge case raising PID_MAX via "/proc/sys/kernel/pid_max" will mitigate it, but not eliminate it. One thing we don't need to worry about is getting into an infinite loop when walking "/proc/*/stat". See 353d3d77f4f (trace2: collect Windows-specific process information, 2019-02-22) for the related Windows code that needs to deal with that, and [2] for an explanation of that edge case. Aside from potential race conditions it's also a bit painful to correctly parse the process name out of "/proc/*/stat". A simpler approach is to use fscanf(), see [3] for an implementation of that, but as noted in the comment being added here it would fail in the face of some weird process names, so we need our own parse_proc_stat() to parse it out. With this patch the "ancestry" chain for a trace2 event might look like this: $ GIT_TRACE2_EVENT=/dev/stdout ~/g/git/git version | grep ancestry | jq -r .ancestry [ "bash", "screen", "systemd" ] And in the case of naughty process names like the following. This uses perl's ability to use prctl(PR_SET_NAME, ...). See Perl/perl5@7636ea95c5 (Set the legacy process name with prctl() on assignment to $0 on Linux, 2010-04-15)[4]: $ perl -e '$0 = "(naughty\nname)"; system "GIT_TRACE2_EVENT=/dev/stdout ~/g/git/git version"' | grep ancestry | jq -r .ancestry [ "sh", "(naughty\nname)", "bash", "screen", "systemd" ] 1. https://grsecurity.net/news#grsec2110 2. https://lore.kernel.org/git/48a62d5e-28e2-7103-a5bb-5db7e197a4b9@jeffhostetler.com/ 3. https://lore.kernel.org/git/87o8agp29o.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com/ 4. https://github.com/Perl/perl5/commit/7636ea95c57762930accf4358f7c0c2dec086b5e Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Acked-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2021-09-07tr2: leave the parent list empty upon failure & don't leak memoryLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-3/+5
In a subsequent commit I'll be replacing most of this code to log N parents, but let's first fix bugs introduced in the recent 2f732bf15e6 (tr2: log parent process name, 2021-07-21). It was using the strbuf_read_file() in the wrong way, its return value is either a length or a negative value on error. If we didn't have a procfs, or otherwise couldn't access it we'd end up pushing an empty string to the trace2 ancestry array. It was also using the strvec_push() API the wrong way. That API always does an xstrdup(), so by detaching the strbuf here we'd leak memory. Let's instead pass in our pointer for strvec_push() to xstrdup(), and then free our own strbuf. I do have some WIP changes to make strvec_push_nodup() non-static, which makes this and some other callsites nicer, but let's just follow the prevailing pattern of using strvec_push() for now. We'll also need to free that "procfs_path" strbuf whether or not strbuf_read_file() succeeds, which was another source of memory leaks in 2f732bf15e6, i.e. we'd leak that memory as well if we weren't on a system where we could read the file from procfs. Let's move all the freeing of the memory to the end of the function. If we're still at STRBUF_INIT with "name" due to not having taken the branch where the strbuf_read_file() succeeds freeing it is redundant. So we could move it into the body of the "if", but just handling freeing the same way for all branches of the function makes it more readable. In combination with the preceding commit this makes all of t[0-9]*trace2*.sh pass under SANITIZE=leak on Linux.

2021-08-02mingw: align symlinks-related rmdir() behavior with LinuxLibravatar Thomas Bétous1-0/+21
When performing a rebase, rmdir() is called on the folder .git/logs. On Unix rmdir() exits without deleting anything in case .git/logs is a symbolic link but the equivalent functions on Windows (_rmdir, _wrmdir and RemoveDirectoryW) do not behave the same and remove the folder if it is symlinked even if it is not empty. This creates issues when folders in .git/ are symlinks which is especially the case when git-repo[1] is used: It replaces `.git/logs/` with a symlink. One such issue is that the _target_ of that symlink is removed e.g. during a `git rebase`, where `delete_reflog("REBASE_HEAD")` will not only try to remove `.git/logs/REBASE_HEAD` but then recursively try to remove the parent directories until an error occurs, a technique that obviously relies on `rmdir()` refusing to remove a symlink. This was reported in https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2967. This commit updates mingw_rmdir() so that its behavior is the same as Linux rmdir() in case of symbolic links. To verify that Git does not regress on the reported issue, this patch adds a regression test for the `git rebase` symptom, even if the same `rmdir()` behavior is quite likely to cause potential problems in other Git commands as well. [1]: git-repo is a python tool built on top of Git which helps manage many Git repositories. It stores all the .git/ folders in a central place by taking advantage of symbolic links.

2021-07-22tr2: log parent process nameLibravatar Emily Shaffer1-0/+55
It can be useful to tell who invoked Git - was it invoked manually by a user via CLI or script? By an IDE? In some cases - like 'repo' tool - we can influence the source code and set the GIT_TRACE2_PARENT_SID environment variable from the caller process. In 'repo''s case, that parent SID is manipulated to include the string "repo", which means we can positively identify when Git was invoked by 'repo' tool. However, identifying parents that way requires both that we know which tools invoke Git and that we have the ability to modify the source code of those tools. It cannot scale to keep up with the various IDEs and wrappers which use Git, most of which we don't know about. Learning which tools and wrappers invoke Git, and how, would give us insight to decide where to improve Git's usability and performance. Unfortunately, there's no cross-platform reliable way to gather the name of the parent process. If procfs is present, we can use that; otherwise we will need to discover the name another way. However, the process ID should be sufficient to look up the process name on most platforms, so that code may be shareable. Git for Windows gathers similar information and logs it as a "data_json" event. However, since "data_json" has a variable format, it is difficult to parse effectively in some languages; instead, let's pursue a dedicated "cmd_ancestry" event to record information about the ancestry of the current process and a consistent, parseable way. Git for Windows also gathers information about more than one generation of parent. In Linux further ancestry info can be gathered with procfs, but it's unwieldy to do so. In the interest of later moving Git for Windows ancestry logging to the 'cmd_ancestry' event, and in the interest of later adding more ancestry to the Linux implementation - or of adding this functionality to other platforms which have an easier time walking the process tree - let's make 'cmd_ancestry' accept an array of parentage.

To pave the way for non-Windows platforms to define trace2_collect_process_info(), reorganize the stub-or-definition schema to something which doesn't directly reference Windows. Platforms which want to collect parent process information in the future should: 1. Add an implementation to compat/ (e.g. compat/somearch/procinfo.c) 2. Add that object to COMPAT_OBJS to config.mak.uname (e.g. COMPAT_OBJS += compat/somearch/procinfo.o) 3. Define HAVE_PLATFORM_PROCINFO in config.mak.uname In the Windows case, this definition lives in compat/win32/trace2_win32_process_info.c, which is already conditionally added to COMPAT_OBJS; so let's add HAVE_PLATFORM_PROCINFO to hint to the build that compat/stub/procinfo.c should not be used.

2021-03-22simple-ipc: add Unix domain socket implementationLibravatar Jeff Hostetler1-0/+999
Create Unix domain socket based implementation of "simple-ipc". A set of `ipc_client` routines implement a client library to connect to an `ipc_server` over a Unix domain socket, send a simple request, and receive a single response. Clients use blocking IO on the socket. A set of `ipc_server` routines implement a thread pool to listen for and concurrently service client connections. The server creates a new Unix domain socket at a known location. If a socket already exists with that name, the server tries to determine if another server is already listening on the socket or if the socket is dead. If socket is busy, the server exits with an error rather than stealing the socket. If the socket is dead, the server creates a new one and starts up. If while running, the server detects that its socket has been stolen by another server, it automatically exits.

Work around platforms whose open() is reported to return EINTR (it shouldn't, as we do our signals with SA_RESTART). * jk/open-returns-eintr: config.mak.uname: enable OPEN_RETURNS_EINTR for macOS Big Sur Makefile: add OPEN_RETURNS_EINTR knob
2021-02-26Makefile: add OPEN_RETURNS_EINTR knobLibravatar Jeff King2-0/+26
On some platforms, open() reportedly returns EINTR when opening regular files and we receive a signal (usually SIGALRM from our progress meter). This shouldn't happen, as open() should be a restartable syscall, and we specify SA_RESTART when setting up the alarm handler. So it may actually be a kernel or libc bug for this to happen. But it has been reported on at least one version of Linux (on a network filesystem): https://lore.kernel.org/git/c8061cce-71e4-17bd-a56a-a5fed93804da@neanderfunk.de/ as well as on macOS starting with Big Sur even on a regular filesystem. We can work around it by retrying open() calls that get EINTR, just as we do for read(), etc. Since we don't ever _want_ to interrupt an open() call, we can get away with just redefining open, rather than insisting all callsites use xopen(). We actually do have an xopen() wrapper already (and it even does this retry, though there's no indication of it being an observed problem back then; it seems simply to have been lifted from xread(), etc). But it is used hardly anywhere, and isn't suitable for general use because it will die() on error. In theory we could combine the two, but it's awkward to do so because of the variable-args interface of open(). This patch adds a Makefile knob for enabling the workaround. It's not enabled by default for any platforms in config.mak.uname yet, as we don't have enough data to decide how common this is (I have not been able to reproduce on either Linux or Big Sur myself). It may be worth enabling preemptively anyway, since the cost is pretty low (if we don't see an EINTR, it's just an extra conditional). However, note that we must not enable this on Windows. It doesn't do anything there, and the macro overrides the existing mingw_open() redirection. I've added a preemptive #undef here in the mingw header (which is processed first) to just quietly disable it (we could also make it an #error, but there is little point in being so aggressive).
