2017-05-08Convert the verify_pack callback to struct object_idLibravatar brian m. carlson1-1/+1
Make the verify_pack_callback take a pointer to struct object_id. Change the pack checksum to use GIT_MAX_RAWSZ, even though it is not strictly an object ID. Doing so ensures resilience against future hash size changes, and allows us to remove hard-coded assumptions about how big the buffer needs to be. Also, use a union to convert the pointer from nth_packed_object_sha1 to to a pointer to struct object_id. This behavior is compatible with GCC and clang and explicitly sanctioned by C11. The alternatives are to just perform a cast, which would run afoul of strict aliasing rules, but should just work, and changing the pointer into an instance of struct object_id and copying the value. The latter operation could seriously bloat memory usage on fsck, which already uses a lot of memory on some repositories.

2017-03-24pack.h: define largest possible encoded object sizeLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+6
Several callers use fixed buffers for storing the pack object header, and they've picked 10 as a magic number. This is reasonable, since it handles objects up to 2^67. But let's give them a constant so it's clear that the number isn't pulled out of thin air. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-03-24encode_in_pack_object_header: respect output buffer lengthLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
The encode_in_pack_object_header() writes a variable-length header to an output buffer, but it doesn't actually know long the buffer is. At first glance, this looks like it might be possible to overflow. In practice, this is probably impossible. The smallest buffer we use is 10 bytes, which would hold the header for an object up to 2^67 bytes. Obviously we're not likely to see such an object, but we might worry that an object could lie about its size (causing us to overflow before we realize it does not actually have that many bytes). But the argument is passed as a uintmax_t. Even on systems that have __int128 available, uintmax_t is typically restricted to 64-bit by the ABI. So it's unlikely that a system exists where this could be exploited. Still, it's easy enough to use a normal out/len pair and make sure we don't write too far. That protects the hypothetical 128-bit system, makes it harder for callers to accidentally specify a too-small buffer, and makes the resulting code easier to audit. Note that the one caller in fast-import tried to catch such a case, but did so _after_ the call (at which point we'd have already overflowed!). This check can now go away.

2016-07-13fsck: use streaming interface for large blobs in packLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+1
For blobs, we want to make sure the on-disk data is not corrupted (i.e. can be inflated and produce the expected SHA-1). Blob content is opaque, there's nothing else inside to check for. For really large blobs, we may want to avoid unpacking the entire blob in memory, just to check whether it produces the same SHA-1. On 32-bit systems, we may not have enough virtual address space for such memory allocation. And even on 64-bit where it's not a problem, allocating a lot more memory could result in kicking other parts of systems to swap file, generating lots of I/O and slowing everything down. For this particular operation, not unpacking the blob and letting check_sha1_signature, which supports streaming interface, do the job is sufficient. check_sha1_signature() is not shown in the diff, unfortunately. But if will be called when "data_valid && !data" is false. We will call the callback function "fn" with NULL as "data". The only callback of this function is fsck_obj_buffer(), which does not touch "data" at all if it's a blob.

2013-12-05pack-objects: name pack files after trailer hashLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
Our current scheme for naming packfiles is to calculate the sha1 hash of the sorted list of objects contained in the packfile. This gives us a unique name, so we are reasonably sure that two packs with the same name will contain the same objects. It does not, however, tell us that two such packs have the exact same bytes. This makes things awkward if we repack the same set of objects. Due to run-to-run variations, the bytes may not be identical (e.g., changed zlib or git versions, different source object reuse due to new packs in the repository, or even different deltas due to races during a multi-threaded delta search). In theory, this could be helpful to a program that cares that the packfile contains a certain set of objects, but does not care about the particular representation. In practice, no part of git makes use of that, and in many cases it is potentially harmful. For example, if a dumb http client fetches the .idx file, it must be sure to get the exact .pack that matches it. Similarly, a partial transfer of a .pack file cannot be safely resumed, as the actual bytes may have changed. This could also affect a local client which opened the .idx and .pack files, closes the .pack file (due to memory or file descriptor limits), and then re-opens a changed packfile. In all of these cases, git can detect the problem, as we have the sha1 of the bytes themselves in the pack trailer (which we verify on transfer), and the .idx file references the trailer from the matching packfile. But it would be simpler and more efficient to actually get the correct bytes, rather than noticing the problem and having to restart the operation. This patch simply uses the pack trailer sha1 as the pack name. It should be similarly unique, but covers the exact representation of the objects. Other parts of git should not care, as the pack name is returned by pack-objects and is essentially opaque. One test needs to be updated, because it actually corrupts a pack and expects that re-packing the corrupted bytes will use the same name. It won't anymore, but we can easily just use the name that pack-objects hands back. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-11-06fsck: avoid reading every object twiceLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+4
During verify_pack() all objects are read for SHA-1 check. Then fsck_sha1() is called on every object, which read the object again (fsck_sha1 -> parse_object -> read_sha1_file). Avoid reading an object twice, do fsck_sha1 while we have an object uncompressed data in verify_pack.

2011-02-27index-pack --verify: read anomalous offsets from v2 idx fileLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+8
A pack v2 .idx file usually records offset using 64-bit representation only when the offset does not fit within 31-bit, but you can handcraft your .idx file to record smaller offset using 64-bit, storing all zero in the upper 4-byte. By inspecting the original idx file when running index-pack --verify, encode such low offsets that do not need to be in 64-bit but are encoded using 64-bit just like the original idx file so that we can still validate the pack/idx pair by comparing the idx file recomputed with the original.

2011-02-27index-pack: --verifyLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+4
Given an existing .pack file and the .idx file that describes it, this new mode of operation reads and re-index the packfile and makes sure the existing .idx file matches the result byte-for-byte. All the objects in the .pack file are validated during this operation as well. Unlike verify-pack, which visits each object described in the .idx file in the SHA-1 order, index-pack efficiently exploits the delta-chain to avoid rebuilding the objects that are used as the base of deltified objects over and over again while validating the objects, resulting in much quicker verification of the .pack file and its .idx file. This version however cannot verify a .pack/.idx pair with a handcrafted v2 index that uses 64-bit offset representation for offsets that would fit within 31-bit. You can create such an .idx file by giving a custom offset to --index-version option to the command. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-10-17fix const issues with some functionsLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-1/+1
Two functions, namely write_idx_file() and open_pack_file(), currently return a const pointer. However that pointer is either a copy of the first argument, or set to a malloc'd buffer when that first argument is null. In the later case it is wrong to qualify that pointer as const since ownership of the buffer is transferred to the caller to dispose of, and obviously the free() function is not meant to be passed const pointers. Making the return pointer not const causes a warning when the first argument is returned since that argument is also marked const. The correct thing to do is therefore to remove the const qualifiers, avoiding the need for ugly casts only to silence some warnings.

2007-09-19Refactor index-pack "keep $sha1" handling for reuseLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+1
There is a subtle (but important) linkage between receive-pack and index-pack that allows index-pack to create a packfile but protect it from being deleted by a concurrent `git repack -a -d` operation. The linkage works by having index-pack mark the newly created pack with a ".keep" file and then it passes the SHA-1 name of that new packfile to receive-pack along its stdout channel. The receive-pack process must unkeep the packfile by deleting the .keep file, but can it can only do so after all elgible refs have been updated in the receiving repository. This ensures that the packfile is either kept or its objects are reachable, preventing a concurrent repacker from deleting the packfile before it can determine that its objects are actually needed by the repository. The new builtin-fetch code needs to perform the same actions if it choose to run index-pack rather than unpack-objects, so I am moving this code out to its own function where both receive-pack and fetch-pack are able to invoke it when necessary. The caller is responsible for deleting the returned ".keep" and freeing the path if the returned path is not NULL. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-01-17Document pack .idx file format upgrade strategy.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+28
Way back when Junio developed the 64 bit index topic he came up with a means of changing the .idx file format so that older Git clients would recognize that they don't understand the file and refuse to read it, while newer clients could tell the difference between the old-style and new-style .idx files. Unfortunately this wasn't recorded anywhere. This change documents how we might go about changing the .idx file format by using a special signature in the first four bytes. Credit (and possible blame) goes completely to Junio for thinking up this technique. The change also modifies the error message of the current Git code so that users get a recommendation to upgrade their Git software should this version or later encounter a new-style .idx which it cannot process. We already do this for the .pack files, but since we usually process the .idx files first its important that these files are recognized and encourage an upgrade. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2006-02-17pack-objects: reuse data from existing packs.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+3
When generating a new pack, notice if we have already needed objects in existing packs. If an object is stored deltified, and its base object is also what we are going to pack, then reuse the existing deltified representation unconditionally, bypassing all the expensive find_deltas() and try_deltas() calls. Also, notice if what we are going to write out exactly match what is already in an existing pack (either deltified or just compressed). In such a case, we can just copy it instead of going through the usual uncompressing & recompressing cycle.

2006-02-09remove delta-against-self bitLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-0/+1
After experimenting with code to add the ability to encode a delta against part of the deltified file, it turns out that resulting packs are _bigger_ than when this ability is not used. The raw delta output might be smaller, but it doesn't compress as well using gzip with a negative net saving on average. Said bit would in fact be more useful to allow for encoding the copying of chunks larger than 64KB providing more savings with large files. This will correspond to packs version 3. While the current code still produces packs version 2, it is made future proof so pack versions 2 and 3 are accepted. Any pack version 2 are compatible with version 3 since the redefined bit was never used before. When enough time has passed, code to use that bit to produce version 3 packs could be added.

Rename verify_pack.c to pack-check.c as suggested, and enhances the verification done quite a bit. - Built-in sha1_file unpacking knows that a base object of a deltified object _must_ be in the same pack, and takes advantage of that fact. - Earlier verify-pack command only checked the SHA1 sum for the entire pack file and did not look into its contents. It now checks everything idx file claims to have unpacks correctly. - It now has a hook to give more detailed information for objects contained in the pack under -v flag.

2005-06-29[PATCH] Add git-verify-pack command.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
Given a list of <pack>.idx files, this command validates the index file and the corresponding .pack file for consistency. This patch also uses the same validation mechanism in fsck-cache when the --full flag is used. During normal operation, sha1_file.c verifies that a given .idx file matches the .pack file by comparing the SHA1 checksum stored in .idx file and .pack file as a minimum sanity check. We may further want to check the pack signature and version when we map the pack, but that would be a separate patch. Earlier, errors to map a pack file was not flagged fatal but led to a random fatal error later. This version explicitly die()s when such an error is detected.

2005-06-28Make git pack files use little-endian size encodingLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-6/+13
This makes it match the new delta encoding, and admittedly makes the code easier to follow. This also updates the PACK file version to 2, since this (and the delta encoding change in the previous commit) are incompatible with the old format.
2005-06-28Change pack file format. Hopefully for the last time.Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+23
This also adds a header with a signature, version info, and the number of objects to the pack file. It also encodes the file length and type more efficiently.
