2019-05-05*.[ch]: manually align parameter listsLibravatar Denton Liu1-2/+2
In previous patches, extern was mechanically removed from function declarations without care to formatting, causing parameter lists to be misaligned. Manually format changed sections such that the parameter lists should be realigned. Viewing this patch with 'git diff -w' should produce no output.

2019-05-05*.[ch]: remove extern from function declarations using spatchLibravatar Denton Liu1-3/+3
There has been a push to remove extern from function declarations. Remove some instances of "extern" for function declarations which are caught by Coccinelle. Note that Coccinelle has some difficulty with processing functions with `__attribute__` or varargs so some `extern` declarations are left behind to be dealt with in a future patch. This was the Coccinelle patch used: @@ type T; identifier f; @@ - extern T f(...); and it was run with: $ git ls-files \*.{c,h} | grep -v ^compat/ | xargs spatch --sp-file contrib/coccinelle/noextern.cocci --in-place Files under `compat/` are intentionally excluded as some are directly copied from external sources and we should avoid churning them as much as possible.

2019-03-03remote-curl: use post_rpc() for protocol v2 alsoLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+1
When transmitting and receiving POSTs for protocol v0 and v1, remote-curl uses post_rpc() (and associated functions), but when doing the same for protocol v2, it uses a separate set of functions (proxy_rpc() and others). Besides duplication of code, this has caused at least one bug: the auth retry mechanism that was implemented in v0/v1 was not implemented in v2. To fix this issue and avoid it in the future, make remote-curl also use post_rpc() when handling protocol v2. Because line lengths are written to the HTTP request in protocol v2 (unlike in protocol v0/v1), this necessitates changes in post_rpc() and some of the functions it uses; perform these changes too. A test has been included to ensure that the code for both the unchunked and chunked variants of the HTTP request is exercised. Note: stateless_connect() has been updated to use the lower-level packet reading functions instead of struct packet_reader. The low-level control is necessary here because we cannot change the destination buffer of struct packet_reader while it is being used; struct packet_buffer has a peeking mechanism which relies on the destination buffer being present in between a peek and a read.

2019-01-17{fetch,upload}-pack: sideband v2 fetch responseLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+4
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.

2019-01-17sideband: reverse its dependency on pkt-lineLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+16
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.

2019-01-15pkt-line: introduce struct packet_writerLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+14
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.

2019-01-02pack-protocol.txt: accept error packets in any contextLibravatar Masaya Suzuki1-2/+6
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.

2018-03-14pkt-line: add delim packet supportLibravatar Brandon Williams1-0/+3
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. Signed-off-by: Brandon Williams <bmwill@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-03-14pkt-line: allow peeking a packet line without consuming itLibravatar Brandon Williams1-0/+58
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()'.

2018-03-14pkt-line: introduce packet_read_with_statusLibravatar Brandon Williams1-0/+16
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.

2017-07-26sub-process: refactor handshake to common functionLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-2/+0
Refactor, into a common function, the version and capability negotiation done when invoking a long-running process as a clean or smudge filter. This will be useful for other Git code that needs to interact similarly with a long-running process. 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 version 2", differentiating between the old single-file filter protocol and the new multi-file filter protocol - I have updated it to something more generic and useful.

2013-02-24pkt-line: share buffer/descriptor reading implementationLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+17
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.

2013-02-20pkt-line: provide a LARGE_PACKET_MAX static bufferLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+7
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 buffers. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-02-20pkt-line: teach packet_read_line to chomp newlinesLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+8
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.

2013-02-20pkt-line: provide a generic reading function with optionsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+26
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.
