Currently, a response to a fetch request has sideband support only while
the packfile is being sent, meaning that the server cannot send notices
until the start of the packfile.
Extend sideband support in protocol v2 fetch responses to the whole
response. upload-pack will advertise it if the
uploadpack.allowsidebandall configuration variable is set, and
fetch-pack will automatically request it if advertised.
If the sideband is to be used throughout the whole response, upload-pack
will use it to send errors instead of prefixing a PKT-LINE payload with
"ERR ".
This will be tested in a subsequent patch.

A subsequent patch will teach struct packet_reader a new field that, if
set, instructs it to interpret read data as multiplexed. This will
create a dependency from pkt-line to sideband.
To avoid a circular dependency, split recv_sideband() into 2 parts: the
reading loop (left in recv_sideband()) and the processing of the
contents (in demultiplex_sideband()), and move the former into pkt-line.
This reverses the direction of dependency: sideband no longer depends on
pkt-line, and pkt-line now depends on sideband.

A future patch will allow the client to request multiplexing of the
entire fetch response (and not only during packfile transmission), which
in turn allows the server to send progress and keepalive messages at any
time during the response.
It will be convenient for a future patch if writing options
(specifically, whether the written data is to be multiplexed) could be
controlled from a single place, so create struct packet_writer to serve
as that place, and modify upload-pack to use it.
Currently, it only stores the output fd, but a subsequent patch will (as
described above) introduce an option to determine if the written data is
to be multiplexed.

In the Git pack protocol definition, an error packet may appear only in
a certain context. However, servers can face a runtime error (e.g. I/O
error) at an arbitrary timing. This patch changes the protocol to allow
an error packet to be sent instead of any packet.
Without this protocol spec change, when a server cannot process a
request, there's no way to tell that to a client. Since the server
cannot produce a valid response, it would be forced to cut a connection
without telling why. With this protocol spec change, the server can be
more gentle in this situation. An old client may see these error packets
as an unexpected packet, but this is not worse than having an unexpected
EOF.
Following this protocol spec change, the error packet handling code is
moved to pkt-line.c. Implementation wise, this implementation uses
pkt-line to communicate with a subprocess. Since this is not a part of
Git protocol, it's possible that a packet that is not supposed to be an
error packet is mistakenly parsed as an error packet. This error packet
handling is enabled only for the Git pack protocol parsing code
considering this.

Many messages will be marked for translation in the following
commits. This commit updates some of them to be more consistent and
reduce diff noise in those commits. Changes are
- keep the first letter of die(), error() and warning() in lowercase
- no full stop in die(), error() or warning() if it's single sentence
messages
- indentation
- some messages are turned to BUG(), or prefixed with "BUG:" and will
not be marked for i18n
- some messages are improved to give more information
- some messages are broken down by sentence to be i18n friendly
(on the same token, combine multiple warning() into one big string)
- the trailing \n is converted to printf_ln if possible, or deleted
if not redundant
- errno_errno() is used instead of explicit strerror()

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

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.
This trick was performed by this invocation:

One of the design goals of protocol-v2 is to improve the semantics of
flush packets. Currently in protocol-v1, flush packets are used both to
indicate a break in a list of packet lines as well as an indication that
one side has finished speaking. This makes it particularly difficult
to implement proxies as a proxy would need to completely understand git
protocol instead of simply looking for a flush packet.
To do this, introduce the special deliminator packet '0001'. A delim
packet can then be used as a deliminator between lists of packet lines
while flush packets can be reserved to indicate the end of a response.
Documentation for how this packet will be used in protocol v2 will
included in a future patch.

Sometimes it is advantageous to be able to peek the next packet line
without consuming it (e.g. to be able to determine the protocol version
a server is speaking). In order to do that introduce 'struct
packet_reader' which is an abstraction around the normal packet reading
logic. This enables a caller to be able to peek a single line at a time
using 'packet_reader_peek()' and having a caller consume a line by
calling 'packet_reader_read()'.

The current pkt-line API encodes the status of a pkt-line read in the
length of the read content. An error is indicated with '-1', a flush
with '0' (which can be confusing since a return value of '0' can also
indicate an empty pkt-line), and a positive integer for the length of
the read content otherwise. This doesn't leave much room for allowing
the addition of additional special packets in the future.
To solve this introduce 'packet_read_with_status()' which reads a packet
and returns the status of the read encoded as an 'enum packet_status'
type. This allows for easily identifying between special and normal
packets as well as errors. It also enables easily adding a new special
packet in the future.

Comparing the result of read_in_full() using less-than is
potentially dangerous, as a negative return value may be
converted to an unsigned type and be considered a success.
This is discussed further in 561598cfcf (read_pack_header:
handle signed/unsigned comparison in read result,
2017-09-13).
Each of these instances is actually fine in practice:
- in get-tar-commit-id, the HEADERSIZE macro expands to a
signed integer. If it were switched to an unsigned type
(e.g., a size_t), then it would be a bug.
- the other two callers check for a short read only after
handling a negative return separately. This is a fine
practice, but we'd prefer to model "!=" as a general
rule.
So all of these cases can be considered cleanups and not
actual bugfixes.

|
|
As with the previous two commits, we prefer to check
write_in_full()'s return value to see if it is negative,
rather than comparing it to the input length.
These cases actually flip the logic to check for success,
making conversion a little different than in other cases. We
could of course write:
if (write_in_full(...) >= 0)
return 0;
return error(...);
But our usual method of spelling write() error checks is
just "< 0". So let's flip the logic for each of these
conditionals to our usual style.

The static-ness was silently dropped in commit 70428d1a5 ("pkt-line: add
packet_write_fmt_gently()", 2016-10-16). As a result, for each call to
packet_write_fmt_1, we allocate and leak a buffer.
We could keep the strbuf non-static and instead make sure we always
release it before returning (but not before we die, so that we don't
touch errno). That would also prepare us for threaded use. But until
that needs to happen, let's just restore the static-ness so that we get
back to a situation where we (eventually) do not continuosly keep
allocating memory.

Refactor, into a common function, the version and capability negotiation

This will be useful for other Git code that needs to interact similarly

As you can see in the change to t0021, this commit changes the error
message reported when the long-running process does not introduce itself
with the expected "server"-terminated line. Originally, the error
message reports that the filter "does not support filter protocol

and the new multi-file filter protocol - I have updated it to something

If you run "GIT_TRACE_PACKET=1 git push", you may get
confusing output like (line prefixes omitted for clarity):
packet: push< \1000eunpack ok0019ok refs/heads/master0000
packet: push< unpack ok
packet: push< ok refs/heads/master
packet: push< 0000
packet: push< 0000
Why do we see the data twice, once apparently wrapped inside
another pkt-line, and once unwrapped? Why do we get two
flush packets?
The answer is that we start an async process to demux the
sideband data. The first entry comes from the sideband
process reading the data, and the second from push itself.
Likewise, the first flush is inside the demuxed packet, and
the second is an actual sideband flush.
We can make this a bit more clear by marking the sideband
demuxer explicitly as "sideband" rather than "push". The
most elegant way to do this would be to simply call
packet_trace_identity() inside the sideband demuxer. But we
can't do that reliably, because it relies on a global
variable, which might be shared if pthreads are in use.
What we really need is thread-local storage for
packet_trace_identity. But the async code does not provide
an interface for that, and it would be messy to add it here
(we'd have to care about pthreads, initializing our
pthread_key_t ahead of time, etc).
So instead, let us just assume that any async process is
handling sideband data. That's always true now, and is
likely to remain so in the future.
The output looks like:
packet: sideband< \1000eunpack ok0019ok refs/heads/master0000
packet: push< unpack ok
packet: push< ok refs/heads/master
packet: push< 0000
packet: sideband< 0000

When debugging the pack protocol, it is sometimes useful to
store the verbatim pack that we sent or received on the
wire. Looking at the on-disk result is often not helpful for
a few reasons:
1. If the operation is a clone, we destroy the repo on
failure, leaving nothing on disk.
2. If the pack is small, we unpack it immediately, and the
full pack never hits the disk.
3. If we feed the pack to "index-pack --fix-thin", the
resulting pack has the extra delta bases added to it.
We already have a GIT_TRACE_PACKET mechanism for tracing
packets. Let's extend it with GIT_TRACE_PACKFILE to dump the
verbatim packfile.
There are a few other positive fallouts that come from
rearranging this code:
- We currently disable the packet trace after seeing the
PACK header, even though we may get human-readable lines
on other sidebands; now we include them in the trace.
- We currently try to print "PACK ..." in the trace to
indicate that the packfile has started. But because we
disable packet tracing, we never printed this line. We
will now do so.

To find the start of the pack data, we accept the word PACK
at the beginning of any sideband channel, even though what
we really want is to find the pack data on channel 1. In
practice this doesn't matter, as sideband-2 messages tend to
start with "error:" or similar, but it is a good idea to be
explicit (especially as we add more code in this area, we
will rely on this assumption).

We carefully check that our pkt buffer has enough characters
before seeing if it starts with "PACK". The intent is to
avoid reading random memory if we get a short buffer like
"PAC".
However, we know that the traced packets are always
NUL-terminated. They come from one of these sources:
1. A string literal.
2. `format_packet`, which uses a strbuf.
3. `packet_read`, which defensively NUL-terminates what we
read.
We can therefore drop the length checks, as we know we will
hit the trailing NUL if we have a short input.

When we send out pkt-lines with refnames, we use a static
1000-byte buffer. This means that the maximum size of a ref
over the git protocol is around 950 bytes (the exact size
depends on the protocol line being written, but figure on a sha1
plus some boilerplate).
This is enough for any sane workflow, but occasionally odd
things happen (e.g., a bug may create a ref "foo/foo/foo/..."
accidentally). With the current code, you cannot even use
"push" to delete such a ref from a remote.
Let's switch to using a strbuf, with a hard-limit of
LARGE_PACKET_MAX (which is specified by the protocol). This
matches the size of the readers, as of 74543a0 (pkt-line:
provide a LARGE_PACKET_MAX static buffer, 2013-02-20).
Versions of git older than that will complain about our
large packets, but it's really no worse than the current
behavior. Right now the sender barfs with "impossibly long
line" trying to send the packet, and afterwards the reader
will barf with "protocol error: bad line length %d", which
is arguably better anyway.
Note that we're not really _solving_ the problem here, but
just bumping the limits. In theory, the length of a ref is
unbounded, and pkt-line can only represent sizes up to
65531 bytes. So we are just bumping the limit, not removing
it. But hopefully 64K should be enough for anyone.
As a bonus, by using a strbuf for the formatting we can
eliminate an unnecessary copy in format_buf_write.

The trace API currently rechecks the environment variable and reopens the
trace file on every API call. This has the ugly side effect that errors
(e.g. file cannot be opened, or the user specified a relative path) are
also reported on every call. Performance can be improved by about factor
three by remembering the environment state and keeping the file open.
Replace the 'const char *key' parameter in the API with a pointer to a
'struct trace_key' that bundles the environment variable name with
additional, trace-internal state. Change the call sites of these APIs to
use a static 'struct trace_key' instead of a string constant.
In trace.c::get_trace_fd(), save and reuse the file descriptor in 'struct
trace_key'.
Add a 'trace_disable()' API, so that packet_trace() can cleanly disable
tracing when it encounters packed data (instead of using unsetenv()).

The packet_read function reads from a descriptor. The
packet_get_line function is similar, but reads from an
in-memory buffer, and uses a completely separate
implementation. This patch teaches the generic packet_read
function to accept either source, and we can do away with
packet_get_line's implementation.
There are two other differences to account for between the
old and new functions. The first is that we used to read
into a strbuf, but now read into a fixed size buffer. The
only two callers are fine with that, and in fact it
simplifies their code, since they can use the same
static-buffer interface as the rest of the packet_read_line
callers (and we provide a similar convenience wrapper for
reading from a buffer rather than a descriptor).
This is technically an externally-visible behavior change in
that we used to accept arbitrary sized packets up to 65532
bytes, and now cap out at LARGE_PACKET_MAX, 65520. In
practice this doesn't matter, as we use it only for parsing
smart-http headers (of which there is exactly one defined,
and it is small and fixed-size). And any extension headers
would be breaking the protocol to go over LARGE_PACKET_MAX
anyway.
The other difference is that packet_get_line would return
on error rather than dying. However, both callers of
packet_get_line are actually improved by dying.
The first caller does its own error checking, but we can
drop that; as a result, we'll actually get more specific
reporting about protocol breakage when packet_read dies
internally. The only downside is that packet_read will not
print the smart-http URL that failed, but that's not a big
deal; anybody not debugging can already see the remote's URL
already, and anybody debugging would want to run with
GIT_CURL_VERBOSE anyway to see way more information.
The second caller, which is just trying to skip past any
extra smart-http headers (of which there are none defined,
but which we allow to keep room for future expansion), did
not error check at all. As a result, it would treat an error
just like a flush packet. The resulting mess would generally
cause an error later in get_remote_heads, but now we get
error reporting much closer to the source of the problem.

Most of the callers of packet_read_line just read into a
static 1000-byte buffer (callers which handle arbitrary
binary data already use LARGE_PACKET_MAX). This works fine
in practice, because:
1. The only variable-sized data in these lines is a ref
name, and refs tend to be a lot shorter than 1000
characters.
2. When sending ref lines, git-core always limits itself
to 1000 byte packets.
However, the only limit given in the protocol specification
in Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt is
LARGE_PACKET_MAX; the 1000 byte limit is mentioned only in
pack-protocol.txt, and then only describing what we write,
not as a specific limit for readers.
This patch lets us bump the 1000-byte limit to
LARGE_PACKET_MAX. Even though git-core will never write a
packet where this makes a difference, there are two good
reasons to do this:
1. Other git implementations may have followed
protocol-common.txt and used a larger maximum size. We
don't bump into it in practice because it would involve
very long ref names.
2. We may want to increase the 1000-byte limit one day.
Since packets are transferred before any capabilities,
it's difficult to do this in a backwards-compatible
way. But if we bump the size of buffer the readers can
handle, eventually older versions of git will be
obsolete enough that we can justify bumping the
writers, as well. We don't have plans to do this
anytime soon, but there is no reason not to start the
clock ticking now.
Just bumping all of the reading bufs to LARGE_PACKET_MAX
would waste memory. Instead, since most readers just read
into a temporary buffer anyway, let's provide a single
static buffer that all callers can use. We can further wrap
this detail away by having the packet_read_line wrapper just
use the buffer transparently and return a pointer to the
static storage. That covers most of the cases, and the
remaining ones already read into their own LARGE_PACKET_MAX

The packets sent during ref negotiation are all terminated
by newline; even though the code to chomp these newlines is
short, we end up doing it in a lot of places.
This patch teaches packet_read_line to auto-chomp the
trailing newline; this lets us get rid of a lot of inline
chomping code.
As a result, some call-sites which are not reading
line-oriented data (e.g., when reading chunks of packfiles
alongside sideband) transition away from packet_read_line to
the generic packet_read interface. This patch converts all
of the existing callsites.
Since the function signature of packet_read_line does not
change (but its behavior does), there is a possibility of
new callsites being introduced in later commits, silently
introducing an incompatibility. However, since a later
patch in this series will change the signature, such a
commit would have to be merged directly into this commit,
not to the tip of the series; we can therefore ignore the
issue.
This is an internal cleanup and should produce no change of
behavior in the normal case. However, there is one corner
case to note. Callers of packet_read_line have never been
able to tell the difference between a flush packet ("0000")
and an empty packet ("0004"), as both cause packet_read_line
to return a length of 0. Readers treat them identically,
even though Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt says
we must not; it also says that implementations should not
send an empty pkt-line.
By stripping out the newline before the result gets to the
caller, we will now treat the newline-only packet ("0005\n")
the same as an empty packet, which in turn gets treated like
a flush packet. In practice this doesn't matter, as neither
empty nor newline-only packets are part of git's protocols
(at least not for the line-oriented bits, and readers who
are not expecting line-oriented packets will be calling
packet_read directly, anyway). But even if we do decide to
care about the distinction later, it is orthogonal to this
patch. The right place to tighten would be to stop treating
empty packets as flush packets, and this change does not
make doing so any harder.

Originally we had a single function for reading packetized
data: packet_read_line. Commit 46284dd grew a more "gentle"
form, packet_read, that returns an error instead of dying
upon reading a truncated input stream. However, it is not
clear from the names which should be called, or what the
difference is.
Let's instead make packet_read be a generic public interface
that can take option flags, and update the single callsite
that uses it. This is less code, more clear, and paves the
way for introducing more options into the generic interface
later. The function signature is changed, so there should be
no hidden conflicts with topics in flight.
While we're at it, we'll document how error conditions are
handled based on the options, and rename the confusing
"return_line_fail" option to "gentle_on_eof". While we are
cleaning up the names, we can drop the "return_line_fail"
checks in packet_read_internal entirely. They look like
this:
ret = safe_read(..., return_line_fail);
if (return_line_fail && ret < 0)
...
The check for return_line_fail is a no-op; safe_read will
only ever return an error value if return_line_fail was true
in the first place.

This is just write_or_die by another name. The one
distinction is that write_or_die will treat EPIPE specially
by suppressing error messages. That's fine, as we die by
SIGPIPE anyway (and in the off chance that it is disabled,
write_or_die will simulate it).

The comment describing the packet writing interface was
originally written above packet_write, but migrated to be
above safe_write in f3a3214, probably because it is meant to
generally describe the packet writing interface and not a
single function. Let's move it into the header file, where
users of the interface are more likely to see it.

If a server accessed through ssh is denying access git will currently
issue the message
"fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly"
as the last line. This sounds as if something really ugly just happened.
Since this is a quite typical situation in which users regularly get
we do not say that if it happens at the beginning when reading the
remote heads.
If its in the very first beginning of reading the remote heads it is
very likely an authentication error or a missing repository.
If it happens later during reading the remote heads we still indicate
that it happened during this initial contact phase.

This shows a trace of all packets coming in or out of a given
program. This can help with debugging object negotiation or
other protocol issues.
To keep the code changes simple, we operate at the lowest
level, meaning we don't necessarily understand what's in the
packets. The one exception is a packet starting with "PACK",
which causes us to skip that packet and turn off tracing
(since the gigantic pack data will not be interesting to
read, at least not in the trace format).
We show both written and read packets. In the local case,
this may mean you will see packets twice (written by the
sender and read by the receiver). However, for cases where
the other end is remote, this allows you to see the full
conversation.
Packet tracing can be enabled with GIT_TRACE_PACKET=<foo>,
where <foo> takes the same arguments as GIT_TRACE.

Change calls to die(..., strerror(errno)) to use the new die_errno().
In the process, also make slight style adjustments: at least state
_something_ about the function that failed (instead of just printing
the pathname), and put paths in single quotes.
