2016-08-01pass constants as first argument to st_mult()Libravatar René Scharfe1-1/+1
The result of st_mult() is the same no matter the order of its arguments. It invokes the macro unsigned_mult_overflows(), which divides the second parameter by the first one. Pass constants first to allow that division to be done already at compile time.

2016-06-20do_for_each_ref(): reimplement using reference iterationLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-0/+20
Use the reference iterator interface to implement do_for_each_ref(). Delete a bunch of code supporting the old for_each_ref() implementation. And now that do_for_each_ref() is generic code (it is no longer tied to the files backend), move it to refs.c. The implementation is via a new function, do_for_each_ref_iterator(), which takes a reference iterator as argument and calls a callback function for each of the references in the iterator. This change requires the current_ref performance hack for peel_ref() to be implemented via ref_iterator_peel() rather than peel_entry() because we don't have a ref_entry handy (it is hidden under three layers: file_ref_iterator, merge_ref_iterator, and cache_ref_iterator). So: * do_for_each_ref_iterator() records the active iterator in current_ref_iter while it is running. * peel_ref() checks whether current_ref_iter is pointing at the requested reference. If so, it asks the iterator to peel the reference (which it can do efficiently via its "peel" virtual function). For extra safety, we do the optimization only if the refname *addresses* are the same, not only if the refname *strings* are the same, to forestall possible mixups between refnames that come from different ref_iterators. Please note that this optimization of peel_ref() is only available when iterating via do_for_each_ref_iterator() (including all of the for_each_ref() functions, which call it indirectly). It would be complicated to implement a similar optimization when iterating directly using a reference iterator, because multiple reference iterators can be in use at the same time, with interleaved calls to ref_iterator_advance(). (In fact we do exactly that in merge_ref_iterator.) But that is not necessary. peel_ref() is only called while iterating over references. Callers who iterate using the for_each_ref() functions benefit from the optimization described above. Callers who iterate using reference iterators directly have access to the ref_iterator, so they can call ref_iterator_peel() themselves to get an analogous optimization in a more straightforward manner. If we rewrite all callers to use the reference iteration API, then we can remove the current_ref_iter hack permanently.

2016-02-22use xmallocz to avoid size arithmeticLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
We frequently allocate strings as xmalloc(len + 1), where the extra 1 is for the NUL terminator. This can be done more simply with xmallocz, which also checks for integer overflow. There's no case where switching xmalloc(n+1) to xmallocz(n) is wrong; the result is the same length, and malloc made no guarantees about what was in the buffer anyway. But in some cases, we can stop manually placing NUL at the end of the allocated buffer. But that's only safe if it's clear that the contents will always fill the buffer. In each case where this patch does so, I manually examined the control flow, and I tried to err on the side of caution.

2015-10-05use strbuf_complete to conditionally append slashLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+1
When working with paths in strbufs, we frequently want to ensure that a directory contains a trailing slash before appending to it. We can shorten this code (and make the intent more obvious) by calling strbuf_complete. Most of these cases are trivially identical conversions, but there are two things to note: - in a few cases we did not check that the strbuf is non-empty (which would lead to an out-of-bounds memory access). These were generally not triggerable in practice, either from earlier assertions, or typically because we would have just fed the strbuf to opendir(), which would choke on an empty path. - in a few cases we indexed the buffer with "original_len" or similar, rather than the current sb->len, and it is not immediately obvious from the diff that they are the same. In all of these cases, I manually verified that the strbuf does not change between the assignment and the strbuf_complete call. This does not convert cases which look like: if (sb->len && !is_dir_sep(sb->buf[sb->len - 1])) strbuf_addch(sb, '/'); as those are obviously semantically different. Some of these cases arguably should be doing that, but that is out of scope for this change, which aims purely for cleanup with no behavior change (and at least it will make such sites easier to find and examine in the future, as we can grep for strbuf_complete).

2015-10-05avoid sprintf and strcpy with flex arraysLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+4
When we are allocating a struct with a FLEX_ARRAY member, we generally compute the size of the array and then sprintf or strcpy into it. Normally we could improve a dynamic allocation like this by using xstrfmt, but it doesn't work here; we have to account for the size of the rest of the struct. But we can improve things a bit by storing the length that we use for the allocation, and then feeding it to xsnprintf or memcpy, which makes it more obvious that we are not writing more than the allocated number of bytes. It would be nice if we had some kind of helper for allocating generic flex arrays, but it doesn't work that well: - the call signature is a little bit unwieldy: d = flex_struct(sizeof(*d), offsetof(d, path), fmt, ...); You need offsetof here instead of just writing to the end of the base size, because we don't know how the struct is packed (partially this is because FLEX_ARRAY might not be zero, though we can account for that; but the size of the struct may actually be rounded up for alignment, and we can't know that). - some sites do clever things, like over-allocating because they know they will write larger things into the buffer later (e.g., struct packed_git here). So we're better off to just write out each allocation (or add type-specific helpers, though many of these are one-off allocations anyway).

2015-09-25resolve_ref: use strbufs for internal buffersLibravatar Jeff King1-27/+30
resolve_ref already uses a strbuf internally when generating pathnames, but it uses fixed-size buffers for storing the refname and symbolic refs. This means that you cannot actually point HEAD to a ref that is larger than 256 bytes. We can lift this limit by using strbufs here, too. Like sb_path, we pass the the buffers into our helper function, so that we can easily clean up all output paths. We can also drop the "unsafe" name from our helper function, as it no longer uses a single static buffer (but of course resolve_ref_unsafe is still unsafe, because the static buffers moved there). As a bonus, we also get to drop some strcpy calls between the two fixed buffers (that cannot currently overflow because the two buffers are sized identically).

2015-09-25convert trivial sprintf / strcpy calls to xsnprintfLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+4
We sometimes sprintf into fixed-size buffers when we know that the buffer is large enough to fit the input (either because it's a constant, or because it's numeric input that is bounded in size). Likewise with strcpy of constant strings. However, these sites make it hard to audit sprintf and strcpy calls for buffer overflows, as a reader has to cross-reference the size of the array with the input. Let's use xsnprintf instead, which communicates to a reader that we don't expect this to overflow (and catches the mistake in case we do).

Because it's not safe to store the static-buffer results of git_path for a long time, we end up formatting the same filename over and over. We can fix this by using a function-local strbuf to store the formatted pathname and avoid repeating ourselves.

2015-08-10refs.c: simplify strbufs in reflog setup and writingLibravatar Jeff King1-23/+15
Commit 1a83c24 (git_snpath(): retire and replace with strbuf_git_path(), 2014-11-30) taught log_ref_setup and log_ref_write_1 to take a strbuf parameter, rather than a bare string. It then makes an alias to the strbuf's "buf" field under the original name. This made the original diff much shorter, but the resulting code is more complicated that it needs to be. Since we've aliased the pointer, we drop our reference to the strbuf to ensure we don't accidentally change it. But if we simply drop our alias and use "logfile.buf" directly, we do not have to worry about this aliasing. It's a larger diff, but the resulting code is simpler.

2015-08-10refs.c: remove extra git_path calls from read_loose_refsLibravatar Jeff King1-10/+13
In iterating over the loose refs in "refs/foo/", we keep a running strbuf with "refs/foo/one", "refs/foo/two", etc. But we also need to access these files in the filesystem, as ".git/refs/foo/one", etc. For this latter purpose, we make a series of independent calls to git_path(). These are safe (we only use the result to call stat()), but assigning the result of git_path is a suspicious pattern that we'd rather avoid. This patch keeps a running buffer with ".git/refs/foo/", and we can just append/reset each directory element as we loop. This matches how we handle the refnames. It should also be more efficient, as we do not keep formatting the same ".git/refs/foo" prefix (which can be arbitrarily deep). Technically we are dropping a call to strbuf_cleanup() on each generated filename, but that's OK; it wasn't doing anything, as we are putting in single-level names we read from the filesystem (so it could not possibly be cleaning up cruft like "./" in this instance). A clever reader may also note that the running refname buffer ("refs/foo/") is actually a subset of the filesystem path buffer (".git/refs/foo/"). We could get by with one buffer, indexing the length of $GIT_DIR when we want the refname. However, having tried this, the resulting code actually ends up a little more confusing, and the efficiency improvement is tiny (and almost certainly dwarfed by the system calls we are making).

2015-08-10prefer mkpathdup to mkpath in assignmentsLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+4
As with the previous commit to git_path, assigning the result of mkpath is suspicious, since it is not clear whether we will still depend on the value after it may have been overwritten by subsequent calls. This patch converts low-hanging fruit to use mkpathdup instead of mkpath (with the downside that we must remember to free the result).

2015-08-10prefer git_pathdup to git_path in some possibly-dangerous casesLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+8
Because git_path uses a static buffer that is shared with calls to git_path, mkpath, etc, it can be dangerous to assign the result to a variable or pass it to a non-trivial function. The value may change unexpectedly due to other calls. None of the cases changed here has a known bug, but they're worth converting away from git_path because: 1. It's easy to use git_pathdup in these cases. 2. They use constructs (like assignment) that make it hard to tell whether they're safe or not. The extra malloc overhead should be trivial, as an allocation should be an order of magnitude cheaper than a system call (which we are clearly about to make, since we are constructing a filename). The real cost is that we must remember to free the result. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
