Improve behaviour of "git fsck" upon finding a missing object. * rs/fsck-null-return-from-lookup: fsck: handle NULL return of lookup_blob() and lookup_tree()
2017-10-06fsck: handle NULL return of lookup_blob() and lookup_tree()Libravatar René Scharfe1-4/+4
lookup_blob() and lookup_tree() can return NULL if they find an object of an unexpected type. Accessing the object member is undefined in that case. Cast the result to a struct object pointer instead; we can do that because object is the first member of all object types. This trick is already used in other places in the code. An error message is already shown by object_as_type(), which is called by the lookup functions. The walk callback functions are expected to handle NULL object pointers passed to them, but put_object_name() needs a valid object, so avoid calling it without one.

2017-09-22consistently use "fallthrough" comments in switchesLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
Gcc 7 adds -Wimplicit-fallthrough, which can warn when a switch case falls through to the next case. The general idea is that the compiler can't tell if this was intentional or not, so you should annotate any intentional fall-throughs as such, leaving it to complain about any unannotated ones. There's a GNU __attribute__ which can be used for annotation, but of course we'd have to #ifdef it away on non-gcc compilers. Gcc will also recognize specially-formatted comments, which matches our current practice. Let's extend that practice to all of the unannotated sites (which I did look over and verify that they were behaving as intended). Ideally in each case we'd actually give some reasons in the comment about why we're falling through, or what we're falling through to. And gcc does support that with -Wimplicit-fallthrough=2, which relaxes the comment pattern matching to anything that contains "fallthrough" (or a variety of spelling variants). However, this isn't the default for -Wimplicit-fallthrough, nor for -Wextra. In the name of simplicity, it's probably better for us to support the default level, which requires "fallthrough" to be the only thing in the comment (modulo some window dressing like "else" and some punctuation; see the gcc manual for the complete set of patterns). This patch suppresses all warnings due to -Wimplicit-fallthrough. We might eventually want to add that to the DEVELOPER Makefile knob, but we should probably wait until gcc 7 is more widely adopted (since earlier versions will complain about the unknown warning type).

2017-01-26fsck: lazily load types under --connectivity-onlyLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+4
The recent fixes to "fsck --connectivity-only" load all of the objects with their correct types. This keeps the connectivity-only code path close to the regular one, but it also introduces some unnecessary inefficiency. While getting the type of an object is cheap compared to actually opening and parsing the object (as the non-connectivity-only case would do), it's still not free. For reachable non-blob objects, we end up having to parse them later anyway (to see what they point to), making our type lookup here redundant. For unreachable objects, we might never hit them at all in the reachability traversal, making the lookup completely wasted. And in some cases, we might have quite a few unreachable objects (e.g., when alternates are used for shared object storage between repositories, it's normal for there to be objects reachable from other repositories but not the one running fsck). The comment in mark_object_for_connectivity() claims two benefits to getting the type up front: 1. We need to know the types during fsck_walk(). (And not explicitly mentioned, but we also need them when printing the types of broken or dangling commits). We can address this by lazy-loading the types as necessary. Most objects never need this lazy-load at all, because they fall into one of these categories: a. Reachable from our tips, and are coerced into the correct type as we traverse (e.g., a parent link will call lookup_commit(), which converts OBJ_NONE to OBJ_COMMIT). b. Unreachable, but not at the tip of a chunk of unreachable history. We only mention the tips as "dangling", so an unreachable commit which links to hundreds of other objects needs only report the type of the tip commit. 2. It serves as a cross-check that the coercion in (1a) is correct (i.e., we'll complain about a parent link that points to a blob). But we get most of this for free already, because right after coercing, we'll parse any non-blob objects. So we'd notice then if we expected a commit and got a blob. The one exception is when we expect a blob, in which case we never actually read the object contents. So this is a slight weakening, but given that the whole point of --connectivity-only is to sacrifice some data integrity checks for speed, this seems like an acceptable tradeoff. Here are before and after timings for an extreme case with ~5M reachable objects and another ~12M unreachable (it's the torvalds/linux repository on GitHub, connected to shared storage for all of the other kernel forks): [before] $ time git fsck --no-dangling --connectivity-only real 3m4.323s user 1m25.121s sys 1m38.710s [after] $ time git fsck --no-dangling --connectivity-only real 0m51.497s user 0m49.575s sys 0m1.776s Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-07-18fsck: optionally show more helpful info for broken linksLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-4/+17
When reporting broken links between commits/trees/blobs, it would be quite helpful at times if the user would be told how the object is supposed to be reachable. With the new --name-objects option, git-fsck will try to do exactly that: name the objects in a way that shows how they are reachable. For example, when some reflog got corrupted and a blob is missing that should not be, the user might want to remove the corresponding reflog entry. This option helps them find that entry: `git fsck` will now report something like this: broken link from tree b5eb6ff... (refs/stash@{<date>}~37:) to blob ec5cf80...

2016-07-18fsck_walk(): optionally name objects on the goLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-4/+83
If fsck_options->name_objects is initialized, and if it already has name(s) for the object(s) that are to be the starting point(s) for fsck_walk(), then that function will now add names for the objects that were walked. This will be highly useful for teaching git-fsck to identify root causes for broken links, which is the task for the next patch in this series. Note that this patch opts for decorating the objects with plain strings instead of full-blown structs (à la `struct rev_name` in the code of the `git name-rev` command), for several reasons: - the code is much simpler than if it had to work with structs that describe arbitrarily long names such as "master~14^2~5:builtin/am.c", - the string processing is actually quite light-weight compared to the rest of fsck's operation, - the caller of fsck_walk() is expected to provide names for the starting points, and using plain and simple strings is just the easiest way to do that.

2016-04-14fsck_commit_buffer(): do not special case the last validationLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+5
The pattern taken by all the validations in this function is: if (notice a violation exists) { err = report(... VIOLATION_KIND ...); if (err) return err; } where report() returns zero if specified kind of violation is set to be ignored, and otherwise shows an error message and returns non-zero. The last validation in the function immediately before the function returns 0 to declare "all good" can cheat and directly return the return value from report(), and the current code does so, i.e. if (notice a violation exists) return report(... VIOLATION_KIND ...); return 0; But that is a selfish code that declares it is the ultimate and final form of the function, never to be enhanced later.

A fix to a minor regression to "git fsck" in v2.2 era that started complaining about a body-less tag object when it lacks a separator empty line after its header to separate it with a non-existent body. * jc/fsck-retire-require-eoh: fsck: it is OK for a tag and a commit to lack the body
2015-06-28fsck: it is OK for a tag and a commit to lack the bodyLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+13
When fsck validates a commit or a tag, it scans each line in the header of the object using helper functions such as "start_with()", etc. that work on a NUL terminated buffer, but before a1e920a0 (index-pack: terminate object buffers with NUL, 2014-12-08), the validation functions were fed the object data in a piece of memory that is not necessarily terminated with a NUL. We added a helper function require_end_of_header() to be called at the beginning of these validation functions to insist that the object data contains an empty line before its end. The theory is that the validating functions will notice and stop when it hits an empty line as a normal end of header (or a required header line that is missing) without scanning past the end of potentially not NUL-terminated buffer. But the theory forgot that in the older days, Git itself happily created objects with only the header lines without a body. This caused Git 2.2 and later to issue an unnecessary warning in some existing repositories. With a1e920a0, we do not need to require an empty line (or the body) in these objects to safely parse and validate them. Drop the offending "must have an empty line" check from this helper function, while keeping the other check to make sure that there is no NUL in the header part of the object, and adjust the name of the helper to what it does accordingly.

2015-06-23fsck: git receive-pack: support excluding objects from fsck'ingLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+50
The optional new config option `receive.fsck.skipList` specifies the path to a file listing the names, i.e. SHA-1s, one per line, of objects that are to be ignored by `git receive-pack` when `receive.fsckObjects = true`. This is extremely handy in case of legacy repositories where it would cause more pain to change incorrect objects than to live with them (e.g. a duplicate 'author' line in an early commit object). The intended use case is for server administrators to inspect objects that are reported by `git push` as being too problematic to enter the repository, and to add the objects' SHA-1 to a (preferably sorted) file when the objects are legitimate, i.e. when it is determined that those problematic objects should be allowed to enter the server.

When fsck_ident() identifies a problem with the ident, it should still advance the pointer to the next line so that fsck can continue in the case of a mere warning. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-06-23fsck: report the ID of the error/warningLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+20
Some repositories written by legacy code have objects with non-fatal fsck issues. To allow the user to ignore those issues, let's print out the ID (e.g. when encountering "missingEmail", the user might want to call `git config --add receive.fsck.missingEmail=warn`).

2015-06-23fsck (receive-pack): allow demoting errors to warningsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+8
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.

2015-06-23fsck: offer a function to demote fsck errors to warningsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-3/+73
There are legacy repositories out there whose older commits and tags have issues that prevent pushing them when 'receive.fsckObjects' is set. One real-life example is a commit object that has been hand-crafted to list two authors. Often, it is not possible to fix those issues without disrupting the work with said repositories, yet it is still desirable to perform checks by setting `receive.fsckObjects = true`. This commit is the first step to allow demoting specific fsck issues to mere warnings. The `fsck_set_msg_types()` function added by this commit parses a list of settings in the form: missingemail=warn,badname=warn,... Unfortunately, the FSCK_WARN/FSCK_ERROR flag is only really heeded by git fsck so far, but other call paths (e.g. git index-pack --strict) error out *always* no matter what type was specified. Therefore, we need to take extra care to set all message types to FSCK_ERROR by default in those cases.

2015-06-22fsck: provide a function to parse fsck message IDsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-2/+33
These functions will be used in the next commits to allow the user to ask fsck to handle specific problems differently, e.g. demoting certain errors to warnings. The upcoming `fsck_set_msg_types()` function has to handle partial strings because we would like to be able to parse, say, 'missingemail=warn,missingtaggerentry=warn' command line parameters (which will be passed by receive-pack to index-pack and unpack-objects). To make the parsing robust, we generate strings from the enum keys, and using these keys, we match up strings without dashes case-insensitively to the corresponding enum values.

2015-06-22fsck: introduce identifiers for fsck messagesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-57/+144
Instead of specifying whether a message by the fsck machinery constitutes an error or a warning, let's specify an identifier relating to the concrete problem that was encountered. This is necessary for upcoming support to be able to demote certain errors to warnings. In the process, simplify the requirements on the calling code: instead of having to handle full-blown varargs in every callback, we now send a string buffer ready to be used by the callback. We could use a simple enum for the message IDs here, but we want to guarantee that the enum values are associated with the appropriate message types (i.e. error or warning?). Besides, we want to introduce a parser in the next commit that maps the string representation to the enum value, hence we use the slightly ugly preprocessor construct that is extensible for use with said parser.
