2016-03-16add helpers for detecting size_t overflowLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+34
Performing computations on size_t variables that we feed to xmalloc and friends can be dangerous, as an integer overflow can cause us to allocate a much smaller chunk than we realized. We already have unsigned_add_overflows(), but let's add unsigned_mult_overflows() to that. Furthermore, rather than have each site manually check and die on overflow, we can provide some helpers that will: - promote the arguments to size_t, so that we know we are doing our computation in the same size of integer that will ultimately be fed to xmalloc - check and die on overflow - return the result so that computations can be done in the parameter list of xmalloc. These functions are a lot uglier to use than normal arithmetic operators (you have to do "st_add(foo, bar)" instead of "foo + bar"). To at least limit the damage, we also provide multi-valued versions. So rather than: st_add(st_add(a, b), st_add(c, d)); you can write: st_add4(a, b, c, d); This isn't nearly as elegant as a varargs function, but it's a lot harder to get it wrong. You don't have to remember to add a sentinel value at the end, and the compiler will complain if you get the number of arguments wrong. This patch adds only the numbered variants required to convert the current code base; we can easily add more later if needed.

2015-06-24Fix definition of ARRAY_SIZE for non-gcc buildsLibravatar Charles Bailey1-5/+3
The improved ARRAY_SIZE macro uses BARF_UNLESS_AN_ARRAY which expands to a valid check for recent gcc versions and to 0 for older gcc versions but is not defined on non-gcc builds. Non-gcc builds need this macro to expand to 0 as well. The current outer test (defined(__GNUC__) && (__GNUC__ >= 3)) is a strictly weaker condition than the inner test (GIT_GNUC_PREREQ(3, 1)) so we can omit the outer test and cause the BARF_UNLESS_AN_ARRAY macro to be defined correctly on non-gcc builds as well as gcc builds with older versions.

2015-05-28config.c: avoid xmmap error messagesLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
The config-writing code uses xmmap to map the existing config file, which will die if the map fails. This has two downsides: 1. The error message is not very helpful, as it lacks any context about the file we are mapping: $ mkdir foo $ git config --file=foo some.key value fatal: Out of memory? mmap failed: No such device 2. We normally do not die in this code path; instead, we'd rather report the error and return an appropriate exit status (which is part of the public interface documented in git-config.1). This patch introduces a "gentle" form of xmmap which lets us produce our own error message. We do not want to use mmap directly, because we would like to use the other compatibility elements of xmmap (e.g., handling 0-length maps portably). The end result is: $ git.compile config --file=foo some.key value error: unable to mmap 'foo': No such device $ echo $? 3 Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-05-05git-compat-util.h: implement a different ARRAY_SIZE macro for for safely ↵Libravatar Elia Pinto1-1/+53
deriving the size of array To get number of elements in an array git use the ARRAY_SIZE macro defined as: #define ARRAY_SIZE(x) (sizeof(x)/sizeof((x)[0])) The problem with it is a possibility of mistakenly passing to it a pointer instead an array. The ARRAY_SIZE macro as conventionally defined does not provide good type-safety and the open-coded approach is more fragile, more verbose and provides no improvement in type-safety. Use instead a different but compatible ARRAY_SIZE() macro, which will also break compile if you try to use it on a pointer. This implemention revert to the original code if the compiler doesn't know the typeof and __builtin_types_compatible_p GCC extensions. This can ensure our code is robust to changes, without needing a gratuitous macro or constant. A similar ARRAY_SIZE implementation also exists in the linux kernel.

Sun Studio on Solaris issues warnings about improper initialization values being used when defining tolower_trans_tbl[] in ctype.c. The array wants to store values with high-bit set and treat them as values between 128 to 255. Unlike the rest of the Git codebase where we explicitly specify 'unsigned char' for such variables and arrays, however, kwset code we borrowed from elsewhere uses 'char' for this and other variables.

2015-02-09git-compat-util: do not step on MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIREDLibravatar Kyle J. McKay1-3/+6
MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED may be defined by the builder to a specific version in order to produce compatible binaries for a particular system. Blindly defining it to MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_6 is bad. Additionally MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_6 will not be defined on older systems and should AvailabilityMacros.h be included on such as system an error will result. However, using the explicit value of 1060 (which is what MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_6 is defined to) does not solve the problem. The changes that introduced stepping on MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN were made in b195aa00 (git-compat-util: suppress unavoidable Apple-specific deprecation warnings) to avoid deprecation warnings. Instead of blindly setting MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN to 1060 change the definition of DEPRECATED_ATTRIBUTE to empty to avoid the warnings. This preserves any MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED setting while avoiding the warnings as intended by b195aa00. Signed-off-by: Kyle J.

It's a common idiom to duplicate a string if it is non-NULL, or pass a literal NULL through. This is already a one-liner in C, but you do have to repeat the name of the string twice. So if there's a function call, you must write: const char *x = some_fun(...); return x ? xstrdup(x) : NULL; instead of (with this patch) just: return xstrdup_or_null(some_fun(...)); Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-01-12gettext.h: add parentheses around N_ expansion if supportedLibravatar Kyle J. McKay1-0/+4
The gettext N_ macro is used to mark strings for translation without actually translating them. At runtime the string is expected to be passed to the gettext API for translation. If two N_ macro invocations appear next to each other with only whitespace (or nothing at all) between them, the two separate strings will be marked for translation, but the preprocessor will then silently combine the strings into one and at runtime the string passed to gettext will not match the strings that were translated so no translation will actually occur. Avoid this by adding parentheses around the expansion of the N_ macro so that instead of ending up with two adjacent strings that are then combined by the preprocessor, two adjacent strings surrounded by parentheses result instead which causes a compile error so the mistake can be quickly found and corrected. However, since these string literals are typically assigned to static variables and not all compilers support parenthesized string literal assignments, allow this to be controlled by the Makefile with the default only enabled when the compiler is known to support the syntax. For now only __GNUC__ enables this by default which covers both gcc and clang which should result in early detection of any adjacent N_ macros. Although the necessary tests make the affected files a bit less elegant, the benefit of avoiding propagation of a translation- marking error to all the translation teams thus creating extra work for them when the error is eventually detected and fixed would seem to outweigh the minor inelegance the additional configuration tests introduce.

2014-12-18git-compat-util: suppress unavoidable Apple-specific deprecation warningsLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-0/+4
With the release of Mac OS X 10.7 in July 2011, Apple deprecated all openssl.h functionality due to OpenSSL ABI (application binary interface) instability, resulting in an explosion of compilation warnings about deprecated SSL, SHA1, and X509 functions (among others). 61067954ce (cache.h: eliminate SHA-1 deprecation warnings on Mac OS X; 2013-05-19) and be4c828b76 (imap-send: eliminate HMAC deprecation warnings on Mac OS X; 2013-05-19) attempted to ameliorate the situation by taking advantage of drop-in replacement functionality provided by Apple's (ABI-stable) CommonCrypto facility, however CommonCrypto supplies only a subset of deprecated OpenSSL functionality, thus a host of warnings remain. Despite this shortcoming, it was hoped that Apple would ultimately provide CommonCrypto replacements for all deprecated OpenSSL functionality, and that the effort started by 61067954ce and be4c828b76 would be continued and eventually eliminate all deprecation warnings. However, now 3.5 years later, and with Mac OS X at 10.10, the hoped-for CommonCrypto replacements have not yet materialized, nor is there any indication that they will be forthcoming. These Apple-specific warnings are pure noise: they don't tell us anything useful and we have no control over them, nor is Apple likely to provide replacements any time soon. Such noise may obscure other legitimate warnings, therefore silence them. Signed-off-by: Eric Sunshine <sunshine@sunshineco.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This adds simple wrapper functions around calls to stat(), fstat(), and lstat() that translate the operating system's native file type bits to those used by most operating systems. It also rewrites the S_IF* macros to the common values, so all file type processing is performed using the translated modes. This makes projects portable across operating systems that use different file type definitions. Only the file type bits may be affected by these compatibility functions; the file permission bits are assumed to be 07777 and are passed through unchanged.

The macro ALLOC_GROW manages several aspects of dynamic memory allocations for arrays: It performs overprovisioning in order to avoid reallocations in future calls, updates the allocation size variable, multiplies the item size and thus allows users to simply specify the item count, performs the reallocation and updates the array pointer. Sometimes this is too much. Add the macro REALLOC_ARRAY, which only takes care of the latter three points and allows users to specfiy the number of items the array can store. It can increase and also decrease the size. Using the macro avoid duplicating the variable name and takes care of the item sizes automatically.
