Although changes by 5b442c4 (tree-diff: catch integer overflow in combine_diff_path allocation, 2016-02-19) are perfectly valid, they unfortunately trigger an internal compiler error in gcc 4.2.x: combine-diff.c: In function 'diff_tree_combined': combine-diff.c:1391: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault: 11 Experimentation reveals that changing st_add4()'s argument evaluation order is sufficient to sidestep this problem.

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.

2016-02-22add helpers for allocating flex-array structsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+62
Allocating a struct with a flex array is pretty simple in practice: you over-allocate the struct, then copy some data into the over-allocation. But it can be a slight pain to make sure you're allocating and copying the right amounts. This patch adds a few helpers to turn simple cases of flex-array struct allocation into a one-liner that properly checks for overflow. See the embedded documentation for details. Ideally we could provide a more flexible version that could handle multiple strings, like: FLEX_ALLOC_FMT(ref, name, "%s%s", prefix, name); But we have to implement this as a macro (because of the offset calculation of the flex member), which means we would need all compilers to support variadic macros.

2016-02-22harden REALLOC_ARRAY and xcalloc against size_t overflowLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
REALLOC_ARRAY inherently involves a multiplication which can overflow size_t, resulting in a much smaller buffer than we think we've allocated. We can easily harden it by using st_mult() to check for overflow. Likewise, we can add ALLOC_ARRAY to do the same thing for xmalloc calls. xcalloc() should already be fine, because it takes the two factors separately, assuming the system calloc actually checks for overflow. However, before we even hit the system calloc(), we do our memory_limit_check, which involves a multiplication. Let's check for overflow ourselves so that this limit cannot be bypassed.

Some codepaths used fopen(3) when opening a fixed path in $GIT_DIR (e.g. COMMIT_EDITMSG) that is meant to be left after the command is done. This however did not work well if the repository is set to be shared with core.sharedRepository and the umask of the previous user is tighter.

2016-01-12compat/basename.c: provide a dirname() compatibility functionLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+2
When there is no `libgen.h` to our disposal, we miss the `dirname()` function. Earlier we added basename() compatibility function for the same reason at e1c06886 (compat: add a basename() compatibility function, 2009-05-31). So far, we only had one user of that function: credential-cache--daemon (which was only compiled when Unix sockets are available, anyway). But now we also have `builtin/am.c` as user, so we need it. Since `dirname()` is a sibling of `basename()`, we simply put our very own `gitdirname()` implementation next to `gitbasename()` and use it if `NO_LIBGEN_H` has been set.

2016-01-12Refactor skipping DOS drive prefixesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+8
Junio noticed that there is an implicit assumption in pretty much all the code calling has_dos_drive_prefix(): it forces all of its callsites to hardcode the knowledge that the DOS drive prefix is always two bytes long. While this assumption is pretty safe, we can still make the code more readable and less error-prone by introducing a function that skips the DOS drive prefix safely. While at it, we change the has_dos_drive_prefix() return value: it now returns the number of bytes to be skipped if there is a DOS drive prefix.

2015-10-05probe_utf8_pathname_composition: use internal strbufLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When we are initializing a .git directory, we may call probe_utf8_pathname_composition to detect utf8 mangling. We pass in a path buffer for it to use, and it blindly strcpy()s into it, not knowing whether the buffer is large enough to hold the result or not. In practice this isn't a big deal, because the buffer we pass in already contains "$GIT_DIR/config", and we append only a few extra bytes to it. But we can easily do the right thing just by calling git_path_buf ourselves. Technically this results in a different pathname (before we appended our utf8 characters to the "config" path, and now they get their own files in $GIT_DIR), but that should not matter for our purposes.

2015-09-25add xsnprintf helper functionLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+3
There are a number of places in the code where we call sprintf(), with the assumption that the output will fit into the buffer. In many cases this is true (e.g., formatting a number into a large buffer), but it is hard to tell immediately from looking at the code. It would be nice if we had some run-time check to make sure that our assumption is correct (and to communicate to readers of the code that we are not blindly calling sprintf, but have actually thought about this case). This patch introduces xsnprintf, which behaves just like snprintf, except that it dies whenever the output is truncated. This acts as a sort of assert() for these cases, which can help find places where the assumption is violated (as opposed to truncating and proceeding, which may just silently give a wrong answer).

2015-09-17strtoul_ui: reject negative valuesLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-0/+3
strtoul_ui uses strtoul to get a long unsigned, then checks that casting to unsigned does not lose information and return the casted value. On 64 bits architecture, checking that the cast does not change the value catches most errors, but when sizeof(int) == sizeof(long) (e.g. i386), the check does nothing. Unfortunately, strtoul silently accepts negative values, and as a result strtoul_ui("-1", ...) raised no error. This patch catches negative values before it's too late, i.e. before calling strtoul.

2015-08-25Merge branch 'jk/long-error-messages'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
The codepath to produce error messages had a hard-coded limit to the size of the message, primarily to avoid memory allocation while calling die(). * jk/long-error-messages: vreportf: avoid intermediate buffer vreportf: report to arbitrary filehandles
2015-08-11vreportf: report to arbitrary filehandlesLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The vreportf function always goes to stderr, but run-command wants child errors to go to the parent's original stderr. To solve this, commit a5487dd duplicates the stderr fd and installs die and error handlers to direct the output appropriately (which later turned into the vwritef function). This has two downsides, though: - we make multiple calls to write(), which contradicts the "write at once" logic from d048a96 (print warning/error/fatal messages in one shot, 2007-11-09). - the custom handlers basically duplicate the normal handlers. They're only a few lines of code, but we should not have to repeat the magic "exit(128)", for example. We can solve the first by using fdopen() on the duplicated descriptor. We can't pass this to vreportf, but we could introduce a new vreportf_to to handle it. However, to fix the second problem, we instead introduce a new "set_error_handle" function, which lets the normal vreportf calls output to a handle besides stderr. Thus we can get rid of our custom handlers entirely, and just ask the regular handlers to output to our new descriptor. And as vwritef has no more callers, it can just go away.

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 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.

2015-04-16git-compat-util: add fallbacks for unlocked stdioLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+6
POSIX.1-2001 specifies some functions for optimizing the locking out of tight getc() loops. Not all systems are POSIX, though, and even not all POSIX systems are required to implement these functions. We can check for the feature-test macro to see if they are available, and if not, provide a noop implementation. There's no Makefile knob here, because we should just detect this automatically. If there are very bizarre systems, we may need to add one, but it's not clear yet in which direction: 1. If a system defines _POSIX_THREAD_SAFE_FUNCTIONS but these functions are missing or broken, we would want a knob to manually turn them off. 2. If a system has these functions but does not define _POSIX_THREAD_SAFE_FUNCTIONS, we would want a knob to manually turn them on. We can add such a knob when we find a real-world system that matches this. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-03-20Merge branch 'km/bsd-sysctl'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+3
We now detect number of CPUs on older BSD-derived systems. * km/bsd-sysctl: thread-utils.c: detect CPU count on older BSD-like systems configure: support HAVE_BSD_SYSCTL option
2015-03-20Merge branch 'km/bsd-shells'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+4
Portability fixes and workarounds for shell scripts have been added to help BSD-derived systems. * km/bsd-shells: t5528: do not fail with FreeBSD shell help.c: use SHELL_PATH instead of hard-coded "/bin/sh" git-compat-util.h: move SHELL_PATH default into header git-instaweb: use @SHELL_PATH@ instead of /bin/sh git-instaweb: allow running in a working tree subdirectory
2015-03-12untracked cache: guard and disable on system changesLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+1
If the user enables untracked cache, then - move worktree to an unsupported filesystem - or simply upgrade OS - or move the whole (portable) disk from one machine to another - or access a shared fs from another machine there's no guarantee that untracked cache can still function properly. Record the worktree location and OS footprint in the cache. If it changes, err on the safe side and disable the cache. The user can 'update-index --untracked-cache' again to make sure all conditions are met. This adds a new requirement that setup_git_directory* must be called before read_cache() because we need worktree location by then, or the cache is dropped. This change does not cover all bases, you can fool it if you try hard. The point is to stop accidents.

2015-03-10configure: support HAVE_BSD_SYSCTL optionLibravatar Kyle J. McKay1-0/+3
On BSD-compatible systems some information such as the number of available CPUs may only be available via the sysctl function. Add support for a HAVE_BSD_SYSCTL option complete with autoconf support and include the sys/syctl.h header when the option is enabled to make the sysctl function available. Signed-off-by: Kyle J.
