2018-05-29help: add --config to list all available configLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+3
Sometimes it helps to list all available config vars so the user can search for something they want. The config man page can also be used but it's harder to search if you want to focus on the variable name, for example. This is not the best way to collect the available config since it's not precise. Ideally we should have a centralized list of config in C code (pretty much like 'struct option'), but that's a lot more work. This will do for now.

2018-05-21regex: do not call `regfree()` if compilation failsLibravatar Martin Ågren1-2/+0
It is apparently undefined behavior to call `regfree()` on a regex where `regcomp()` failed. The language in [1] is a bit muddy, at least to me, but the clearest hint is this (`preg` is the `regex_t *`): Upon successful completion, the regcomp() function shall return 0. Otherwise, it shall return an integer value indicating an error as described in <regex.h>, and the content of preg is undefined. Funnily enough, there is also the `regerror()` function which should be given a pointer to such a "failed" `regex_t` -- the content of which would supposedly be undefined -- and which may investigate it to come up with a detailed error message. In any case, the example in that document shows how `regfree()` is not called after `regcomp()` fails. We have quite a few users of this API and most get this right. These three users do not. Several implementations can handle this just fine [2] and these code paths supposedly have not wreaked havoc or we'd have heard about it. (These are all in code paths where git got bad input and is just about to die anyway.) But let's just avoid the issue altogether.

2018-05-06Replace all die("BUG: ...") calls by BUG() onesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-8/+8
In d8193743e08 (usage.c: add BUG() function, 2017-05-12), a new macro was introduced to use for reporting bugs instead of die(). It was then subsequently used to convert one single caller in 588a538ae55 (setup_git_env: convert die("BUG") to BUG(), 2017-05-12). The cover letter of the patch series containing this patch (cf 20170513032414.mfrwabt4hovujde2@sigill.intra.peff.net) is not terribly clear why only one call site was converted, or what the plan is for other, similar calls to die() to report bugs. Let's just convert all remaining ones in one fell swoop.

Fix a bug in the compilation of PCRE2 patterns under JIT (the most common runtime configuration). Any pattern with a (*NO_JIT) verb would segfault in any currently released PCRE2 version: $ git grep -P '(*NO_JIT)hi.*there' Segmentation fault That this segfaulted was a bug in PCRE2 itself, after reporting it[1] on pcre-dev it's been fixed in a yet-to-be-released version of PCRE (presumably released first as 10.31). Now it'll die with: $ git grep -P '(*NO_JIT)hi.*there' fatal: pcre2_jit_match failed with error code -45: bad JIT option But the cause of the bug is in our own code dating back to my 94da9193a6 ("grep: add support for PCRE v2", 2017-06-01). As explained at more length in the comment being added here, it isn't sufficient to just check pcre2_config() to see whether the JIT should be used, pcre2_pattern_info() also has to be asked. This is something I discovered myself when fiddling around with PCRE2 verbs in patterns passed to git. I don't expect that any user of git has encountered this given the obscurity of passing PCRE2 verbs through to the library, along with the relative obscurity of (*NO_JIT) itself. 1.

Function context can be bigger than -A/-B/-C context. To find the beginning of the combined context we search backwards. Currently we check at each loop iteration what we're looking for and determine the effective upper boundary based on that. Simplify this a bit by setting the variable "from" to the lowest unshown line number up front if we're looking for a function line and set it back to the required -B/-C context line number when we find one. This prepares the ground for the next patch; no functional change intended. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2017-11-13grep: fix NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT to fully disable JITLibravatar Charles Bailey1-1/+1
If you have a pcre1 library which is compiled with JIT enabled then PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE will be defined whether or not the NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT configuration is set. This means that we enable JIT functionality when calling pcre_study even if NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT has been explicitly set and we just use plain pcre_exec later. Fix this by using own macro (GIT_PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE) which we set to PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE only if NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT is not set and define to 0 otherwise, as before.

2017-06-30grep: remove redundant REG_NEWLINE when compiling fixed regexLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-1/+1
Remove the redundant REG_NEWLINE regcomp() flag from the code that compiles a fixed-string regular-expression. The REG_NEWLINE causes metacharacters such as "." to match a newline, since the basic_regex_quote_buf() function being called here escapes all metacharacters using REG_NEWLINE is confusing and redundant. The use of this flag was introduced as an unintended emergent property of 793dc676e0 ("grep/icase: avoid kwsset when -F is specified", 2016-06-25). That change amended the existing regflags, which were initialized to REG_NEWLINE in init_grep_defaults() assuming a subsequent non-fixed regcomp(). Manual testing reveals that this was always redundant, since no flags of any use were inherited from opt->regflags even back then. 793dc676e0 passes all tests with this on top: diff --git a/grep.c b/grep.c index 627ae3e3e8..89e84ed7fd 100644 --- a/grep.c +++ b/grep.c @@ -407,3 +407,3 @@ static void compile_fixed_regexp(struct grep_pat *p, struct grep_opt *opt) basic_regex_quote_buf(&sb, p->pattern); - regflags = opt->regflags & ~REG_EXTENDED; + regflags = 0; if (opt->ignore_case) Since this isn't used for anything and never was, remove it to reduce confusion when reading this code.

2017-06-30grep: remove regflags from the public grep_opt APILibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-9/+34
Refactor calls to the grep machinery to always pass opt.ignore_case & opt.extended_regexp_option instead of setting the equivalent regflags bits. The bug fixed when making -i work with -P in commit 9e3cbc59d5 ("log: make --regexp-ignore-case work with --perl-regexp", 2017-05-20) was really just plastering over the code smell which this change fixes. The reason for adding the extensive commentary here is that I discovered some subtle complexity in implementing this that really should be called out explicitly to future readers. Before this change we'd rely on the difference between `extended_regexp_option` and `regflags` to serve as a membrane between our preliminary parsing of grep.extendedRegexp and grep.patternType, and what we decided to do internally. Now that those two are the same thing, it's necessary to unset `extended_regexp_option` just before we commit in cases where both of those config variables are set. See 84befcd0a4 ("grep: add a grep.patternType configuration setting", 2012-08-03) for the code and documentation related to that. The explanation of why the if/else branches in grep_commit_pattern_type() are ordered the way they are exists in that commit message, but I think it's worth calling this subtlety out explicitly with a comment for future readers. Even though grep_commit_pattern_type() is the only caller of grep_set_pattern_type_option() it's simpler to reset the extended_regexp_option flag in the latter, since 2/3 branches in the former would otherwise need to reset it, this way we can do it in one place.

2017-06-30grep: adjust a redundant grep pattern type assignmentLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-4/+1
Adjust a now-redundant assignment to extended_regexp_option to make it zero if grep.extendedRegexp is not set. This is always called right after init_grep_defaults() which memsets the entire structure to 0, so there's no need to set it again to zero. However the reason for the if/else pattern is a holdover from[1] where this was adjusted from a bitfield assignment to a boolean. Rather than getting rid of the assignment to 0 in all cases, let's just use the value returned by git_config_bool(), which is more idiomatic and in sync with the rest of the boolean handling in this function. This is a logical follow-up to my commit to remove redundant regflags assignments[2]. This logic was originally introduced in [3], but as explained in the former commit it's working around a pattern in our code that no longer exists, and is now confusing as it leads the reader to think that this needs to be flipped back & forth. 1. 84befcd0a4 ("grep: add a grep.patternType configuration setting", 2012-08-03) 2. e0b9f8ae09 ("grep: remove redundant regflags assignments", 2017-05-25) 3. b22520a37c ("grep: allow -E and -n to be turned on by default via configuration", 2011-03-30) Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Fix an erroneously copy/pasted check for the pcre2_jit_stack variable to check pcre2_match_context instead. The former was already checked in the preceding "if" statement.

In practice if pcre2_match_context_create() returned NULL we were likely in a situation where malloc() was returning NULL, and were thus screwed anyway, but if only the pcre2_match_context_create() call returned NULL (through some transitory bug) PCRE v2 would just allocate and supply its own context object when matching, and we'd run normally at the trivial expense of not getting a slight speedup by sharing the context object between successive matches.

2017-06-02grep: add support for PCRE v2Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+145
Add support for v2 of the PCRE API. This is a new major version of PCRE that came out in early 2015[1]. The regular expression syntax is the same, but while the API is similar, pretty much every function is either renamed or takes different arguments. Thus using it via entirely new functions makes sense, as opposed to trying to e.g. have one compile_pcre_pattern() that would call either PCRE v1 or v2 functions. Git can now be compiled with either USE_LIBPCRE1=YesPlease or USE_LIBPCRE2=YesPlease, with USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease currently being a synonym for the former. Providing both is a compile-time error. With earlier patches to enable JIT for PCRE v1 the performance of the release versions of both libraries is almost exactly the same, with PCRE v2 being around 1% slower. However after I reported this to the pcre-dev mailing list[2] I got a lot of help with the API use from Zoltán Herczeg, he subsequently optimized some of the JIT functionality in v2 of the library. Running the p7820-grep-engines.sh performance test against the latest Subversion trunk of both, with both them and git compiled as -O3, and the test run against linux.git, gives the following results.

PCRE v2), again with just the /perl/ tests shown: [...] Test HEAD~ HEAD ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7820.3: perl grep 'how.to' 0.21(0.42+0.52) 0.21(0.31+0.58) +0.0% 7820.7: perl grep '^how to' 0.25(0.65+0.50) 0.20(0.31+0.57) -20.0% 7820.11: perl grep '[how] to' 0.30(0.90+0.50) 0.23(0.46+0.53) -23.3% 7820.15: perl grep '(e.t[^ ]*|v.ry) rare' 0.30(1.19+0.38) 0.23(0.51+0.51) -23.3% 7820.19: perl grep 'm(ú|u)lt.b(æ|y)te' 0.27(0.84+0.48) 0.21(0.34+0.57) -22.2% I.e. the two are either neck-to-neck, but PCRE v2 usually pulls ahead, when it does it's around 20% faster. A brief note on thread safety: As noted in pcre2api(3) & pcre2jit(3) the compiled pattern can be shared between threads, but not some of the JIT context, however the grep threading support does all pattern & JIT compilation in separate threads, so this code doesn't need to concern itself with thread safety. See commit 63e7e9d8b6 ("git-grep: Learn PCRE", 2011-05-09) for the initial addition of PCRE v1. This change follows some of the same patterns it did (and which were discussed on list at the time), e.g. mocking up types with typedef instead of ifdef-ing them out when USE_LIBPCRE2 isn't defined. This adds some trivial memory use to the program, but makes the code look nicer. 1. https://lists.exim.org/lurker/message/20150105.162835.0666407a.en.html 2. https://lists.exim.org/lurker/thread/20170419.172322.833ee099.en.html Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-05-26grep: un-break building with PCRE < 8.32Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-3/+3
Amend my change earlier in this series ("grep: add support for the PCRE v1 JIT API", 2017-04-11) to un-break the build on PCRE v1 versions earlier than 8.32. The JIT support was added in version 8.20 released on 2011-10-21, but it wasn't until 8.32 released on 2012-11-30 that the fast code path to use the JIT via pcre_jit_exec() was added[1] (see also [2]). This means that versions 8.20 through 8.31 could still use the JIT, but supporting it on those versions would add to the already verbose macro soup around JIT support it, and I don't expect that the use-case of compiling a brand new git against a 5 year old PCRE is particularly common, and if someone does that they can just get the existing pre-JIT slow codepath. So just take the easy way out and disable the JIT on any version older than 8.32. The reason this change isn't part of the initial change PCRE JIT support is to have a cleaner history showing which parts of the implementation are only used for ancient PCRE versions. This also makes it easier to revert this change if we ever decide to stop supporting those old versions. 1. http://www.pcre.org/original/changelog.txt ("28. Introducing a native interface for JIT.

2017-05-26grep: add support for the PCRE v1 JIT APILibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-4/+36
Change the grep PCRE v1 code to use JIT when available. When PCRE support was initially added in commit 63e7e9d8b6 ("git-grep: Learn PCRE", 2011-05-09) PCRE had no JIT support, it was integrated into 8.20 released on 2011-10-21. Enabling JIT support usually improves performance by more than 40%. The pattern compilation times are relatively slower, but those relative numbers are tiny, and are easily made back in all but the most trivial cases of grep. Detailed benchmarks & overview of compilation times is at: http://sljit.sourceforge.net/pcre.html With this change the difference in a t/perf/p7820-grep-engines.sh run is, with just the /perl/ tests shown: $ GIT_PERF_REPEAT_COUNT=30 GIT_PERF_LARGE_REPO=~/g/linux GIT_PERF_MAKE_OPTS='-j8 USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease CC=~/perl5/installed/bin/gcc NO_R_TO_GCC_LINKER=YesPlease CFLAGS=-O3 LIBPCREDIR=/home/avar/g/pcre/inst LDFLAGS=-Wl,-rpath,/home/avar/g/pcre/inst/lib' ./run HEAD~ HEAD p7820-grep-engines.sh Test HEAD~ HEAD --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7820.3: perl grep 'how.to' 0.35(1.11+0.43) 0.23(0.42+0.46) -34.3% 7820.7: perl grep '^how to' 0.64(2.71+0.36) 0.27(0.66+0.44) -57.8% 7820.11: perl grep '[how] to' 0.63(2.51+0.42) 0.33(0.98+0.39) -47.6% 7820.15: perl grep '(e.t[^ ]*|v.ry) rare' 1.17(5.61+0.35) 0.34(1.08+0.46) -70.9% 7820.19: perl grep 'm(ú|u)lt.b(æ|y)te' 0.43(1.52+0.44) 0.30(0.88+0.42) -30.2% The conditional support for JIT is implemented as suggested in the pcrejit(3) man page. E.g. defining PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE to 0 if it's not present. The implementation is relatively verbose because even if PCRE_CONFIG_JIT is defined only a call to pcre_config() can determine if the JIT is available, and if so the faster pcre_jit_exec() function should be called instead of pcre_exec(), and a different (but not complimentary!) function needs to be called to free pcre1_extra_info. There's no graceful fallback if pcre_jit_stack_alloc() fails under PCRE_CONFIG_JIT, instead the program will simply abort. I don't think this is worth handling gracefully, it'll only fail in cases where malloc() doesn't work, in which case we're screwed anyway. That there's no assignment of `p->pcre1_jit_on = 0` when PCRE_CONFIG_JIT isn't defined isn't a bug. The create_grep_pat() function allocates the grep_pat allocates it with calloc(), so it's guaranteed to be 0 when PCRE_CONFIG_JIT isn't defined. I you're bisecting and find this change, check that your PCRE isn't older than 8.32. This change intentionally broke really old versions of PCRE, but that's fixed in follow-up commits.

2017-05-26grep: change the internal PCRE macro names to be PCRE1Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-3/+3
Change the internal USE_LIBPCRE define, & build options flag to use a naming convention ending in PCRE1, without changing the long-standing USE_LIBPCRE Makefile flag which enables this code. This is for preparation for libpcre2 support where having things like USE_LIBPCRE and USE_LIBPCRE2 in any more places than we absolutely need to for backwards compatibility with old Makefile arguments would be confusing. In some ways it would be better to change everything that now uses USE_LIBPCRE to use USE_LIBPCRE1, and to make specifying USE_LIBPCRE (or --with-pcre) an error. This would impose a one-time burden on packagers of git to s/USE_LIBPCRE/USE_LIBPCRE1/ in their build scripts. However I'd like to leave the door open to making USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease eventually mean USE_LIBPCRE2=YesPlease, i.e. once PCRE v2 is ubiquitous enough that it makes sense to make it the default. This code and the USE_LIBPCRE Makefile argument was added in commit 63e7e9d8b6 ("git-grep: Learn PCRE", 2011-05-09). At the time there was no indication that the PCRE project would release an entirely new & incompatible API around 3 years later.

2017-05-26grep: remove redundant regflags assignmentsLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-5/+1
Remove redundant assignments to the "regflags" variable. This variable is only used set under GREP_PATTERN_TYPE_ERE, so there's no need to un-set it under GREP_PATTERN_TYPE_{FIXED,BRE,PCRE}. Back in 5010cb5fcc[1], we did do "opt.regflags &= ~REG_EXTENDED" upon seeing "-G" on the command line and flipped the bit on upon seeing "-E", but I think that was perfectly sensible and it would have been a bug if we didn't. They were part of the command line parsing that could have seen "-E" on the command line earlier. When cca2c172 ("git-grep: do not die upon -F/-P when grep.extendedRegexp is set.", 2011-05-09) switched the command line parsing to "read into a 'tentatively this is what we saw the last' variable and then finally commit just once", we didn't touch opt.regflags for PCRE and FIXED, but we still had to flip regflags between BRE and ERE, because parsing of grep.extendedregexp configuration variable directly touched opt.regflags back then, which was done by b22520a3 ("grep: allow -E and -n to be turned on by default via configuration", 2011-03-30). When 84befcd0 ("grep: add a grep.patternType configuration setting", 2012-08-03) introduced extended_regexp_option field, we stopped flipping regflags while reading the configuration, and that was when we should have noticed and stopped dropping REG_EXTENDED bit in the "now we can commit what type to use" helper function. There is no reason to do this anymore, so stop doing it, more to reduce "wait this is used under fixed/BRE/PCRE how?" confusion when reading the code, than to to save ourselves trivial CPU cycles by removing one assignment. 1.

These calls to snprintf should always succeed, because their input is small and fixed. Let's use xsnprintf to make sure this is the case (and to make auditing for actual truncation easier). These could be candidates for turning into heap buffers, but they fall into a few broad categories that make it not worth doing: - formatting single numbers is simple enough that we can see the result should fit - the size of a sha1 is likewise well-known, and I didn't want to cause unnecessary conflicts with the ongoing process to convert these constants to GIT_MAX_HEXSZ - the interface for curl_errorstr is dictated by curl Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

Some codepaths in "git diff" used regexec(3) on a buffer that was mmap(2)ed, which may not have a terminating NUL, leading to a read beyond the end of the mapped region. This was fixed by introducing a regexec_buf() helper that takes a <ptr,len> pair with REG_STARTEND extension. * js/regexec-buf: regex: use regexec_buf() regex: add regexec_buf() that can work on a non NUL-terminated string regex: -G<pattern> feeds a non NUL-terminated string to regexec() and fails
2016-09-21regex: use regexec_buf()Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-12/+2
The new regexec_buf() function operates on buffers with an explicitly specified length, rather than NUL-terminated strings. We need to use this function whenever the buffer we want to pass to regexec(3) may have been mmap(2)ed (and is hence not NUL-terminated). Note: the original motivation for this patch was to fix a bug where `git diff -G <regex>` would crash. This patch converts more callers, though, some of which allocated to construct NUL-terminated strings, or worse, modified buffers to temporarily insert NULs while calling regexec(3). By converting them to use regexec_buf(), the code has become much cleaner. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-07-25grep: further simplify setting the pattern typeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-11/+11
When c5c31d33 (grep: move pattern-type bits support to top-level grep.[ch], 2012-10-03) introduced grep_commit_pattern_type() helper function, the intention was to allow the users of grep API to having to fiddle only with .pattern_type_option (which can be set to "fixed", "basic", "extended", and "pcre"), and then immediately before compiling the pattern strings for use, call grep_commit_pattern_type() to have it prepare various bits in the grep_opt structure (like .fixed, .regflags, etc.). However, grep_set_pattern_type_option() helper function the grep API internally uses were left as an external function by mistake. This function shouldn't have been made callable by the users of the API. Later when the grep API was used in revision traversal machinery, the caller then mistakenly started calling the function around 34a4ae55 (log --grep: use the same helper to set -E/-F options as "git grep", 2012-10-03), instead of setting the .pattern_type_option field and letting the grep_commit_pattern_type() to take care of the details. This caused an unnecessary bug that made a configured grep.patternType take precedence over the command line options (e.g. --basic-regexp, --fixed-strings) in "git log" family of commands.
