Since the lockfile code is based on the tempfile code, it
has some of the same problems, including that close_lock_file()
erases the tempfile's filename buf, making it hard for the
caller to write a good error message.
In practice this comes up less for lockfiles than for
straight tempfiles, since we usually just report the
refname. But there is at least one buggy case in
write_ref_to_lockfile(). Besides, given the coupling between
the lockfile and tempfile modules, it's less confusing if
their close() functions have the same semantics.
Just as the previous commit did for close_tempfile(), let's
teach close_lock_file() and its wrapper close_ref() not to
rollback on error. And just as before, we'll give them new
"gently" names to catch any new callers that are added.

When close_tempfile() fails, we delete the tempfile and
reset the fields of the tempfile struct. This makes it
easier for callers to return without cleaning up, but it
also makes this common pattern:
if (close_tempfile(tempfile))
return error_errno("error closing %s", tempfile->filename.buf);
wrong, because the "filename" field has been reset after the
failed close. And it's not easy to fix, as in many cases we
don't have another copy of the filename (e.g., if it was
created via one of the mks_tempfile functions, and we just
have the original template string).
Let's drop the feature that a failed close automatically
deletes the file. This puts the burden on the caller to do
the deletion themselves, but this isn't that big a deal.
Callers which do:
if (write(...) || close_tempfile(...)) {
delete_tempfile(...);
return -1;
}
already had to call delete when the write() failed, and so
aren't affected. Likewise, any caller which just calls die()
in the error path is OK; we'll delete the tempfile during
the atexit handler.
Because this patch changes the semantics of close_tempfile()
without changing its signature, all callers need to be
manually checked and converted to the new scheme. This patch
covers all in-tree callers, but there may be others for
not-yet-merged topics. To catch these, we rename the
function to close_tempfile_gently(), which will attract
compile-time attention to new callers. (Technically the
original could be considered "gentle" already in that it
didn't die() on errors, but this one is even more so).

We used to spend more than necessary cycles allocating and freeing
piece of memory while writing each index entry out. This has been
optimized.
* kw/write-index-reduce-alloc:
read-cache: avoid allocating every ondisk entry when writing
read-cache: fix memory leak in do_write_index
perf: add test for writing the index
|
|
When writing the index for each entry an ondisk struct will be
allocated and freed in ce_write_entry. We can do better by
using a ondisk struct on the stack for each entry.
This is accomplished by using a stack ondisk_cache_entry_extended
outside looping through the entries in do_write_index. Only the
fixed fields of this struct are used when writing and depending on
whether it is extended or not the flags2 field will be written.
The name field is not used and instead the cache_entry name field
is used directly when writing out the name. Because ce_write is
using a buffer and memcpy to fill the buffer before flushing to disk,
we don't have to worry about doing multiple ce_write calls.
Running the p0007-write-cache.sh tests would save anywhere
between 3-7% when the index had over a million entries with no
performance degradation on small repos.

Simplify the code for moving members inside of an array and make it more
robust by using the helper macro MOVE_ARRAY. It calculates the size
based on the specified number of elements for us and supports NULL
pointers when that number is zero. Raw memmove(3) calls with NULL can
cause the compiler to (over-eagerly) optimize out later NULL checks.

t1700: make sure split-index respects core.sharedrepository

read-cache: use shared perms when writing shared index
|
|
Since f6ecc62dbf (write_shared_index(): use tempfile module, 2015-08-10)
write_shared_index() has been using mks_tempfile() to create the
temporary file that will become the shared index.
But even before that, it looks like the functions used to create this
file didn't call adjust_shared_perm(), which means that the shared
index file has always been created with 600 permissions regardless
of the shared permission settings.
Because of that, on repositories created with `git init --shared=all`
and using the split index feature, one gets an error like:
fatal: .git/sharedindex.a52f910b489bc462f187ab572ba0086f7b5157de: index file open failed: Permission denied
when another user performs any operation that reads the shared index.
Call adjust_shared_perm() on the temporary file created by
mks_tempfile() ourselves to adjust the permission bits.

When "git checkout", "git merge", etc. manipulates the in-core
index, various pieces of information in the index extensions are
discarded from the original state, as it is usually not the case
that they are kept up-to-date and in-sync with the operation on the
main index. The untracked cache extension is copied across these
operations now, which would speed up "git status" (as long as the
cache is properly invalidated).

Make git checkout (and other unpack_tree operations) preserve the
untracked cache. This is valuable for two reasons:
1. Often, an unpack_tree operation will not touch large parts of the
working tree, and thus most of the untracked cache will continue to be
valid.
2. Even if the untracked cache were entirely invalidated by such an
operation, the user has signaled their intention to have such a cache,
and we don't want to throw it away.

When split-index is being used, we have two cache_entry arrays in
index_state->cache[] and index_state->split_index->base->cache[].
index_state->cache[] may share the same entries with base->cache[] so
we can quickly determine what entries are shared. This makes memory
management tricky, we can't free base->cache[] until we know
index_state->cache[] does not point to any of those entries.
unshare_split_index() is added for this purpose, to find shared
entries and either duplicate them in index_state->cache[], or discard
them. Either way it should be safe to free base->cache[] after
unshare_split_index().

We generally disallow null sha1s from entering the index,
due to 4337b5856 (do not write null sha1s to on-disk index,
2012-07-28). However, we loosened that in 83bd7437c
(write_index: optionally allow broken null sha1s,
2013-08-27) so that tools like filter-branch could be used
to repair broken history.
However, we should make sure that these broken entries do
not get propagated into new trees. For most entries, we'd
catch them with the missing-object check (since presumably
the null sha1 does not exist in our object database). But
gitlink entries do not need reachability, so we may blindly
copy the entry into a bogus tree.
This patch rejects all null sha1s (with the same "invalid
entry" message that missing objects get) when building trees
from the index. It does so even for non-gitlinks, and even
when "write-tree" is given the --missing-ok flag. The null
sha1 is a special sentinel value that is already rejected in
trees by fsck; whether the object exists or not, it is an
error to put it in a tree.
Note that for this to work, we must also avoid reusing an
existing cache-tree that contains the null sha1. This patch
does so by just refusing to write out any cache tree when
the index contains a null sha1. This is blunter than we need
to be; we could just reject the subtree that contains the
offending entry. But it's not worth the complexity. The
behavior is unchanged unless you have a broken index entry,
and even then we'd refuse the whole index write unless the
emergency GIT_ALLOW_NULL_SHA1 is in use. And even then the
end result is only a performance drop (any write-tree will
have to generate the whole cache-tree from scratch).
The tests bear some explanation.
The existing test in t7009 doesn't catch this problem,
because our index-filter runs "git rm --cached", which will
try to rewrite the updated index and barf on the bogus
entry. So we never even make it to write-tree. The new test
there adds a noop index-filter, which does show the problem.
The new tests in t1601 are slightly redundant with what
filter-branch is doing under the hood in t7009. But as
they're much more direct, they're easier to reason about.
And should filter-branch ever change or go away, we'd want
to make sure that these plumbing commands behave sanely.

When performing an interactive rebase in split-index mode,
the commit message that one should rework when squashing commits
can contain some garbage instead of the usual concatenation of
both of the commit messages.
The code uses git_path() to compute the shared index filename, and
passes it to check_and_freshen_file() as its argument; there is no
guarantee that the rotating pathname buffer passed as argument will
stay valid during the life of this call. Make our own copy before
calling the function and pass the copy as its argument to avoid this
risky pattern.

Teach has_dir_name() to see if the path of the new item
is greater than the last path in the index array before
attempting to search for it.
has_dir_name() is looking for file/directory collisions
in the index and has to consider each sub-directory
prefix in turn. This can cause multiple binary searches
for each path.
During operations like checkout, merge_working_tree()
populates the new index in sorted order, so we expect
to be able to append in many cases.
This commit is part 2 of 2. This commit handles the

file in the git directory. This change makes sure that shared index
files that haven't been used for a long time are removed when a new
shared index file is created.
The new "splitIndex.sharedIndexExpire" config variable is created
to tell the delay after which an unused shared index file can be
deleted. It defaults to "2.weeks.ago".
A previous commit made sure that each time a split index file is

When writing a new split-index and there is a big number of cache
entries in the split-index compared to the shared index, it is a
good idea to regenerate the shared index.
By default when the ratio reaches 20%, we will push back all
the entries from the split-index into a new shared index file
instead of just creating a new split-index file.
The threshold can be configured using the
"splitIndex.maxPercentChange" config variable.
We need to adjust the existing tests in t1700 by setting
"splitIndex.maxPercentChange" to 100 at the beginning of t1700,
as the existing tests are assuming that the shared index is
regenerated only when `git update-index --split-index` is used.

The codeflow of setting NOATIME and CLOEXEC on file descriptors Git
opens has been simplified.
We may want to drop the tip one, but we'll see.
* jc/git-open-cloexec:
sha1_file: stop opening files with O_NOATIME
git_open_cloexec(): use fcntl(2) w/ FD_CLOEXEC fallback
git_open(): untangle possible NOATIME and CLOEXEC interactions

Callers of the hold_locked_index() function pass 0 when they want to
prepare to write a new version of the index file without wishing to
die or emit an error message when the request fails (e.g. somebody
else already held the lock), and pass 1 when they want the call to
die upon failure.
This option is called LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR by the underlying lockfile
API, and the hold_locked_index() function translates the paramter to
LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR when calling the hold_lock_file_for_update().
Replace these hardcoded '1' with LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR and stop
translating. Callers other than the ones that are replaced with
this change pass '0' to the function; no behaviour change is
intended with this patch.

Among the callers of hold_locked_index() that passes 0:
- diff.c::refresh_index_quietly() at the end of "git diff" is an
opportunistic update; it leaks the lockfile structure but it is
just before the program exits and nobody should care.
- builtin/describe.c::cmd_describe(),
builtin/commit.c::cmd_status(),
sequencer.c::read_and_refresh_cache() are all opportunistic
updates and they are OK.
- builtin/update-index.c::cmd_update_index() takes a lock upfront
but we may end up not needing to update the index (i.e. the
entries may be fully up-to-date), in which case we do not need to
issue an error upon failure to acquire the lock. We do diagnose
and die if we indeed need to update, so it is OK.
- wt-status.c::require_clean_work_tree() IS BUGGY. It asks
silence, does not check the returned value. Compare with
callsites like cmd_describe() and cmd_status() to notice that it
is wrong to call update_index_if_able() unconditionally.

The way we structured the fallback/retry mechanism for opening with
O_NOATIME and O_CLOEXEC meant that if we failed due to lack of
support to open the file with O_NOATIME option (i.e. EINVAL), we
would still try to drop O_CLOEXEC first and retry, and then drop
O_NOATIME. A platform on which O_NOATIME is defined in the header
without support from the kernel wouldn't have a chance to open with
O_CLOEXEC option due to this code structure.
Arguably, O_CLOEXEC is more important than O_NOATIME, as the latter
is mostly about performance, while the former can affect correctness.
Instead use O_CLOEXEC to open the file, and then use fcntl(2) to set
O_NOATIME on the resulting file descriptor. open(2) itself does not
cause atime to be updated according to Linus [*1*].
The helper to do the former can be usable in the codepath in
ce_compare_data() that was recently added to open a file descriptor
with O_CLOEXEC; use it while we are at it.

This fixes "convert: add filter.<driver>.process option" (edcc8581) on
Windows.
Consider the case of a file that requires filtering and is present in
branch A but not in branch B. If A is the current HEAD and we checkout B
then the following happens:
1. ce_compare_data() opens the file
2. index_fd() detects that the file requires to run a clean filter and
calls index_stream_convert_blob()
4. index_stream_convert_blob() calls convert_to_git_filter_fd()
5. convert_to_git_filter_fd() calls apply_filter() which creates a
new long running filter process (in case it is the first file
of this kind to be filtered)
6. The new filter process inherits all file handles. This is the
default on Linux/OSX and is explicitly defined in the
`CreateProcessW` call in `mingw.c` on Windows.
7. ce_compare_data() closes the file
8. Git unlinks the file as it is not present in B
The unlink operation does not work on Windows because the filter process
has still an open handle to the file. On Linux/OSX the unlink operation
succeeds but the file descriptors still leak into the child process.
Fix this problem by opening files in read-cache with the O_CLOEXEC flag
to ensure that the file descriptor does not remain open in a newly
spawned process similar to 05d1ed6148 ("mingw: ensure temporary file
handles are not inherited by child processes", 2016-08-22).

"git add --chmod=+x <pathspec>" added recently only toggled the
executable bit for paths that are either new or modified. This has
been corrected to flip the executable bit for all paths that match
the given pathspec.
* tg/add-chmod+x-fix:
t3700-add: do not check working tree file mode without POSIXPERM
t3700-add: create subdirectory gently
add: modify already added files when --chmod is given
read-cache: introduce chmod_index_entry
update-index: add test for chmod flags
