2022-01-17refs: allow passing flags when beginning transactionsLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-0/+1
We do not currently have any flags when creating reference transactions, but we'll add one to disable execution of the reference transaction hook in some cases. Allow passing flags to `ref_store_transaction_begin()` to prepare for this change. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This function was added in 5fe7d825da8 (refs.c: pass a list of names to skip to is_refname_available, 2014-05-01) as rename_ref_available() and was only ever used in this one file-backend specific codepath.

2021-10-16refs API: make parse_loose_ref_contents() not set errnoLibravatar Han-Wen Nienhuys1-2/+4
Change the parse_loose_ref_contents() function to stop setting "errno" and failure, and to instead pass up a "failure_errno" via a parameter. This requires changing its callers to do the same. The EINVAL error from parse_loose_ref_contents is used in files-backend to create a custom error message. In untangling this we discovered a tricky edge case. The refs_read_special_head() function was relying on parse_loose_ref_contents() setting EINVAL. By converting it to use "saved_errno" we can migrate away from "errno" in this part of the code entirely, and do away with an existing "save_errno" pattern, its only purpose was to not clobber the "errno" we previously needed at the end of files_read_raw_ref(). Let's assert that we can do that by not having files_read_raw_ref() itself operate on *failure_errno in addition to passing it on. Instead we'll assert that if we return non-zero we actually do set errno, thus assuring ourselves and callers that they can trust the resulting "failure_errno".

2021-09-27refs: add DO_FOR_EACH_OMIT_DANGLING_SYMREFS flagLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+6
When the DO_FOR_EACH_INCLUDE_BROKEN flag is used, we include both actual corrupt refs (illegal names, missing objects), but also symrefs that point to nothing. This latter is not really a corruption, but just something that may happen normally. For example, the symref at refs/remotes/origin/HEAD may point to a tracking branch which is later deleted. (The local HEAD may also be unborn, of course, but we do not access it through ref iteration). Most callers of for_each_ref() etc, do not care. They don't pass INCLUDE_BROKEN, so don't see it at all. But for those which do pass it, this somewhat-normal state causes extra warnings (e.g., from for-each-ref) or even aborts operations (destructive repacks with GIT_REF_PARANOIA set). This patch just introduces the flag and the mechanism; there are no callers yet (and hence no tests). Two things to note on the implementation: - we actually skip any symref that does not resolve to a ref. This includes ones which point to an invalidly-named ref. You could argue this is a more serious breakage than simple dangling. But the overall effect is the same (we could not follow the symref), as well as the impact on things like REF_PARANOIA (either way, a symref we can't follow won't impact reachability, because we'll see the ref itself during iteration). The underlying resolution function doesn't distinguish these two cases (they both get REF_ISBROKEN). - we change the iterator in refs/files-backend.c where we check INCLUDE_BROKEN. There's a matching spot in refs/packed-backend.c, but we don't know need to do anything there. The packed backend does not support symrefs at all. The resulting set of flags might be a bit easier to follow if we broke this down into "INCLUDE_CORRUPT_REFS" and "INCLUDE_DANGLING_SYMREFS". But there are a few reasons not do so: - adding a new OMIT_DANGLING_SYMREFS flag lets us leave existing callers intact, without changing their behavior (and some of them really do want to see the dangling symrefs; e.g., t5505 has a test which expects us to report when a symref becomes dangling) - they're not actually independent. You cannot say "include dangling symrefs" without also including refs whose objects are not reachable, because dangling symrefs by definition do not have an object. We could tweak the implementation to distinguish this, but in practice nobody wants to ask for that. Adding the OMIT flag keeps the implementation simple and makes sure we don't regress the current behavior.

The documentation for the DO_FOR_EACH_* flags is sprinkled over the refs-internal.h file. We define the two flags in one spot, and then describe them in more detail far away from there, in the definitions of refs_ref_iterator_begin() and ref_iterator_advance_fn(). Let's try to organize this a bit better: - convert the #defines to an enum. This makes it clear that they are related, and that the enum shows the complete set of flags. - combine all descriptions for each flag in a single spot, next to the flag's definition - use the enum rather than a bare int for functions which take the flags. This helps readers realize which flags can be used. - clarify the mention of flags for ref_iterator_advance_fn(). It does not take flags itself, but is meant to depend on ones set up earlier.

2021-08-25refs: make errno output explicit for read_raw_ref_fnLibravatar Han-Wen Nienhuys1-8/+12
This makes it explicit how alternative ref backends should report errors in read_raw_ref_fn. read_raw_ref_fn needs to supply a credible errno for a number of cases. These are primarily: 1) The files backend calls read_raw_ref from lock_raw_ref, and uses the resulting error codes to create/remove directories as needed. 2) ENOENT should be translated in a zero OID, optionally with REF_ISBROKEN set, returning the last successfully resolved symref. This is necessary so read_raw_ref("HEAD") on an empty repo returns refs/heads/main (or the default branch du-jour), and we know on which branch to create the first commit. Make this information flow explicit by adding a failure_errno to the signature of read_raw_ref. All errnos from the files backend are still propagated unchanged, even though inspection suggests only ENOTDIR, EISDIR and ENOENT are relevant.

2021-08-25refs: remove EINVAL errno output from specification of read_raw_ref_fnLibravatar Han-Wen Nienhuys1-3/+3
This commit does not change code; it documents the fact that an alternate ref backend does not need to return EINVAL from read_raw_ref_fn to function properly. This is correct, because refs_read_raw_ref is only called from; * resolve_ref_unsafe(), which does not care for the EINVAL errno result. * refs_verify_refname_available(), which does not inspect errno. * files-backend.c, where errno is overwritten on failure. * packed-backend.c (is_packed_transaction_needed), which calls it for the packed ref backend, which never emits EINVAL. A grep for EINVAL */*c reveals that no code checks errno against EINVAL after reading references. In addition, the refs.h file does not mention errno at all. A grep over resolve_ref_unsafe() turned up the following callers that inspect errno: * sequencer.c::print_commit_summary, which uses it for die_errno * lock_ref_oid_basic(), which only treats EISDIR and ENOTDIR specially. The files ref backend does use EINVAL. The files backend does not call into the generic API (refs_read_raw), but into the files-specific function (files_read_raw_ref), which we are not changing in this commit. As the errno sideband is unintuitive and error-prone, remove EINVAL value, as a step towards getting rid of the errno sideband altogether. Spotted by Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com>.

2021-05-20refs: make explicit that ref_iterator_peel returns booleanLibravatar Han-Wen Nienhuys1-0/+3
Use -1 as error return value throughout. This removes spurious differences in the GIT_TRACE_REFS output, depending on the ref storage backend active. Before, the cached ref_iterator (but only that iterator!) would return peel_object() output directly. No callers relied on the peel_status values beyond success/failure. All calls to these functions go through peel_iterated_oid(), which returns peel_object() as a fallback, but also squashing the error values. The iteration interface already passes REF_ISSYMREF and REF_ISBROKEN through the flags argument, so the additional error values in enum peel_status provide no value. The ref iteration interface provides a separate peel() function because certain formats (eg. packed-refs and reftable) can store the peeled object next to the tag SHA1. Passing the peeled SHA1 as an optional argument to each_ref_fn maps more naturally to the implementation of ref databases. Changing the code in this way is left for a future refactoring.

2020-07-10reflog: cleanse messages in the refs.c layerLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+0
Regarding reflog messages: - We expect that a reflog message consists of a single line. The file format used by the files backend may add a LF after the message as a delimiter, and output by commands like "git log -g" may complete such an incomplete line by adding a LF at the end, but philosophically, the terminating LF is not a part of the message. - We however allow callers of refs API to supply a random sequence of NUL terminated bytes. We cleanse caller-supplied message by squashing a run of whitespaces into a SP, and by trimming trailing whitespace, before storing the message. This is how we tolerate, instead of erring out, a message with LF in it (be it at the end, in the middle, or both). Currently, the cleansing of the reflog message is done by the files backend, before the log is written out. This is sufficient with the current code, as that is the only backend that writes reflogs. But new backends can be added that write reflogs, and we'd want the resulting log message we would read out of "log -g" the same no matter what backend is used, and moving the code to do so to the generic layer is a way to do so. An added benefit is that the "cleansing" function could be updated later, independent from individual backends, to e.g. allow multi-line log messages if we wanted to, and when that happens, it would help a lot to ensure we covered all bases if the cleansing function (which would be updated) is called from the generic layer. Side note: I am not interested in supporting multi-line reflog messages right at the moment (nobody is asking for it), but I envision that instead of the "squash a run of whitespaces into a SP and rtrim" cleansing, we can %urlencode problematic bytes in the message *AND* append a SP at the end, when a new version of Git that supports multi-line and/or verbatim reflog messages writes a reflog record. The reading side can detect the presense of SP at the end (which should have been rtrimmed out if it were written by existing versions of Git) as a signal that decoding %urlencode recovers the original reflog message.

New attempts in the object store conversion have shown that it is useful to have the repository handle available that the refs iteration is currently iterating over. To achieve this goal we will need to add a repository argument to each_ref_fn in refs.h. However as many callers rely on the signature such a patch would be too large. So convert the internals of the ref subsystem first to pass through a repository argument without exposing the change to the user.

Operations that do not touch (majority of) packed refs have been optimized by making accesses to packed-refs file lazy; we no longer pre-parse everything, and an access to a single ref in the packed-refs does not touch majority of irrelevant refs, either. * mh/mmap-packed-refs: (21 commits) packed-backend.c: rename a bunch of things and update comments mmapped_ref_iterator: inline into `packed_ref_iterator` ref_cache: remove support for storing peeled values packed_ref_store: get rid of the `ref_cache` entirely ref_store: implement `refs_peel_ref()` generically packed_read_raw_ref(): read the reference from the mmapped buffer packed_ref_iterator_begin(): iterate using `mmapped_ref_iterator` read_packed_refs(): ensure that references are ordered when read packed_ref_cache: keep the `packed-refs` file mmapped if possible packed-backend.c: reorder some definitions mmapped_ref_iterator_advance(): no peeled value for broken refs mmapped_ref_iterator: add iterator over a packed-refs file packed_ref_cache: remember the file-wide peeling state read_packed_refs(): read references with minimal copying read_packed_refs(): make parsing of the header line more robust read_packed_refs(): only check for a header at the top of the file read_packed_refs(): use mmap to read the `packed-refs` file die_unterminated_line(), die_invalid_line(): new functions packed_ref_cache: add a backlink to the associated `packed_ref_store` prefix_ref_iterator: break when we leave the prefix ...

2017-09-25ref_store: implement `refs_peel_ref()` genericallyLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-3/+0
We're about to stop storing packed refs in a `ref_cache`. That means that the only way we have left to optimize `peel_ref()` is by checking whether the reference being peeled is the one currently being iterated over (in `current_ref_iter`), and if so, using `ref_iterator_peel()`. But this can be done generically; it doesn't have to be implemented per-backend. So implement `refs_peel_ref()` in `refs.c` and remove the `peel_ref()` method from the refs API. This removes the last callers of a couple of functions, so delete them. More cleanup to come...

2017-09-14ref_iterator: keep track of whether the iterator output is orderedLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-4/+19
References are iterated over in order by refname, but reflogs are not. Some consumers of reference iteration care about the difference. Teach each `ref_iterator` to keep track of whether its output is ordered. `overlay_ref_iterator` is one of the picky consumers. Add a sanity check in `overlay_ref_iterator_begin()` to verify that its inputs are ordered. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2017-08-26Merge branch 'mh/ref-lock-entry'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+6
The code to acquire a lock on a reference (e.g. while accepting a push from a client) used to immediately fail when the reference is already locked---now it waits for a very short while and retries, which can make it succeed if the lock holder was holding it during a read-only operation. * mh/ref-lock-entry: refs: retry acquiring reference locks for 100ms
2017-08-23refs: retry acquiring reference locks for 100msLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-0/+6
The philosophy of reference locking has been, "if another process is changing a reference, then whatever I'm trying to do to it will probably fail anyway because my old-SHA-1 value is probably no longer current". But this argument falls down if the other process has locked the reference to do something that doesn't actually change the value of the reference, such as `pack-refs` or `reflog expire`. There actually *is* a decent chance that a planned reference update will still be able to go through after the other process has released the lock. So when trying to lock an individual reference (e.g., when creating "refs/heads/master.lock"), if it is already locked, then retry the lock acquisition for approximately 100 ms before giving up. This should eliminate some unnecessary lock conflicts without wasting a lot of time. Add a configuration setting, `core.filesRefLockTimeout`, to allow this setting to be tweaked. Note: the function `get_files_ref_lock_timeout_ms()` cannot be private to the files backend because it is also used by `write_pseudoref()` and `delete_pseudoref()`, which are defined in `refs.c` so that they can be used by other reference backends.
