2018-02-28merge: always roll back lock in `checkout_fast_forward()`Libravatar Martin Ågren1-3/+9
This function originated in builtin/merge.c. It was moved to merge.c in commit db699a8a1f (Move try_merge_command and checkout_fast_forward to libgit.a, 2012-10-26), but was used from sequencer.c even before that. If a problem occurs, the function returns without rolling back the lockfile. Teach it to do so. Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

index_has_changes() is a function we want to reuse outside of just am, making it also available for merge-recursive and merge-ort. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-10-07read-cache: leave lock in right state in `write_locked_index()`Libravatar Martin Ågren1-3/+1
If the original version of `write_locked_index()` returned with an error, it didn't roll back the lockfile unless the error occured at the very end, during closing/committing. See commit 03b866477 (read-cache: new API write_locked_index instead of write_index/write_cache, 2014-06-13). In commit 9f41c7a6b (read-cache: close index.lock in do_write_index, 2017-04-26), we learned to close the lock slightly earlier in the callstack. That was mostly a side-effect of lockfiles being implemented using temporary files, but didn't cause any real harm. Recently, commit 076aa2cbd (tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap, 2017-09-05) introduced a subtle bug. If the temporary file is deleted (i.e., the lockfile is rolled back), the tempfile-pointer in the `struct lock_file` will be left dangling. Thus, an attempt to reuse the lockfile, or even just to roll it back, will induce undefined behavior -- most likely a crash. Besides not crashing, we clearly want to make things consistent. The guarantees which the lockfile-machinery itself provides is A) if we ask to commit and it fails, roll back, and B) if we ask to close and it fails, do _not_ roll back. Let's do the same for consistency. Do not delete the temporary file in `do_write_index()`. One of its callers, `write_locked_index()` will thereby avoid rolling back the lock. The other caller, `write_shared_index()`, will delete its temporary file anyway. Both of these callers will avoid undefined behavior (crashing). Teach `write_locked_index(..., COMMIT_LOCK)` to roll back the lock before returning. If we have already succeeded and committed, it will be a noop. Simplify the existing callers where we now have a superfluous call to `rollback_lockfile()`. That should keep future readers from wondering why the callers are inconsistent.

2017-10-06treewide: prefer lockfiles on the stackLibravatar Martin Ågren1-4/+4
There is no longer any need to allocate and leak a `struct lock_file`. The previous patch addressed an instance where we needed a minor tweak alongside the trivial changes. Deal with the remaining instances where we allocate and leak a struct within a single function. Change them to have the `struct lock_file` on the stack instead. These instances were identified by running `git grep "^\s*struct lock_file\s*\*"`. Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-05-08tree: convert parse_tree_indirect to struct object_idLibravatar brian m. carlson1-2/+2
Convert parse_tree_indirect to take a pointer to struct object_id. Update all the callers. This transformation was achieved using the following semantic patch and manual updates to the declaration and definition. Update builtin/checkout.c manually as well, since it uses a ternary expression not handled by the semantic patch. @@ expression E1; @@ - parse_tree_indirect(E1.hash) + parse_tree_indirect(&E1) @@ expression E1; @@ - parse_tree_indirect(E1->hash) + parse_tree_indirect(E1) Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-12-07lockfile: LOCK_REPORT_ON_ERRORLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
The "libify sequencer" topic stopped passing the die_on_error option to hold_locked_index(), and this lost an error message from "git merge --ff-only $commit" when there are competing updates in progress. The command still exits with a non-zero status, but that is not of much help for an interactive user. The last thing the command says is "Updating $from..$to". We used to follow it with a big error message that makes it clear that "merge --ff-only" did not succeed. What is sad is that we should have noticed this regression while reviewing the change. It was clear that the update to the checkout_fast_forward() function made a failing hold_locked_index() silent, but the only caller of the checkout_fast_forward() function had this comment: if (checkout_fast_forward(from, to, 1)) - exit(128); /* the callee should have complained already */ + return -1; /* the callee should have complained already */ which clearly contradicted the assumption X-<. Add a new option LOCK_REPORT_ON_ERROR that can be passed instead of LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR to the hold_lock*() family of functions and teach checkout_fast_forward() to use it to fix this regression. After going thourgh all calls to hold_lock*() family of functions that used to pass LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR but were modified to pass 0 in the "libify sequencer" topic "git show --first-parent 2a4062a4a8", it appears that this is the only one that has become silent. Many others used to give detailed report that talked about "there may be competing Git process running" but with the series merged they now only give a single liner "Unable to lock ...", some of which may have to be tweaked further, but at least they say something, unlike the one this patch fixes.

2016-09-09sequencer: lib'ify checkout_fast_forward()Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-3/+6
Instead of dying there, let the caller high up in the callchain notice the error and handle it (by dying, still). The only callers of checkout_fast_forward(), cmd_merge(), pull_into_void(), cmd_pull() and sequencer's fast_forward_to(), already check the return value and handle it appropriately. With this step, we make it notice an error return from this function. So this is a safe conversion to make checkout_fast_forward() callable from new callers that want it not to die, without changing the external behaviour of anything existing.
