A stray symbolic link in $GIT_DIR/refs/ directory could make name
resolution loop forever, which has been corrected.
* jk/ref-symlink-loop:
files_read_raw_ref: prevent infinite retry loops in general
files_read_raw_ref: avoid infinite loop on broken symlinks
|
|
Limit the number of retries to 3. That should be adequate to
prevent any races, while preventing the possibility of
infinite loops if the logic fails to handle any other
possible error modes correctly.
After the fix in the previous commit, there's no known way
to trigger an infinite loop, but I did manually verify that
this fixes the test in that commit even when the code change
is not applied.

Our ref resolution first runs lstat() on any path we try to
look up, because we want to treat symlinks specially (by
resolving them manually and considering them symrefs). But
if the results of `readlink` do _not_ look like a ref, we
fall through to treating it like a normal file, and just
read the contents of the linked path.
Since fcb7c76 (resolve_ref_unsafe(): close race condition
reading loose refs, 2013-06-19), that "normal file" code
path will stat() the file and if we see ENOENT, will jump
back to the lstat(), thinking we've seen inconsistent
results between the two calls. But for a symbolic ref, this
isn't a race: the lstat() found the symlink, and the stat()
is looking at the path it points to. We end up in an
infinite loop calling lstat() and stat().
We can fix this by avoiding the retry-on-inconsistent jump
when we know that we found a symlink. While we're at it,
let's add a comment explaining why the symlink case gets to
this code in the first place; without that, it is not
obvious that the correct solution isn't to avoid the stat()
code path entirely.

Alternate refs backends might still use files to store per-worktree
refs. So provide a way to iterate over only the per-worktree references
in a ref_store. The other backend can set up a files ref_store and
iterate using the new DO_FOR_EACH_PER_WORKTREE_ONLY flag when iterating.

In the file-based backend, delete_refs has some special optimization

resolve_ref_recursively() can handle references in arbitrary files
reference stores, so use it to resolve "gitlink" (i.e., submodule)
references. Aside from removing redundant code, this allows submodule
lookups to benefit from the much more robust code that we use for
reading non-submodule references. And, since the code is now agnostic
about reference backends, it will work for any future references
backend (so move its definition to refs.c).

The greater goal of this patch series is to develop the concept of a
reference store, which is a place that references, their values, and
their reflogs are stored, and to virtualize the reference interface so
that different types of ref_stores can be implemented. We will then, for
example, use ref_store instances to access submodule references and
worktree references.
Currently, we keep a ref_cache for each submodule that has had its
references iterated over. It is a far cry from a ref_store, but they are
stored the way we will want to store ref_stores, and ref_stores will
eventually have to hold the reference caches. So let's treat ref_caches
as embryo ref_stores, and build them out from there.
As the first step, simply rename `ref_cache` to `files_ref_store`, and
rename some functions and attributes correspondingly.

Currently, do_submodule_path will attempt locating the .git directory by
using read_gitfile on <path>/.git. If this fails it just assumes the
<path>/.git is actually a git directory.
This is good because it allows for handling submodules which were cloned
in a regular manner first before being added to the superproject.
Unfortunately this fails if the <path> is not actually checked out any
longer, such as by removing the directory.
Fix this by checking if the directory we found is actually a gitdir. In
the case it is not, attempt to lookup the submodule configuration and
find the name of where it is stored in the .git/modules/ directory of
the superproject.
If we can't locate the submodule configuration, this might occur because
for example a submodule gitlink was added but the corresponding
.gitmodules file was not properly updated. A die() here would not be
pleasant to the users of submodule diff formats, so instead, modify
do_submodule_path() to return an error code:
- git_pathdup_submodule() returns NULL when we fail to find a path.
- strbuf_git_path_submodule() propagates the error code to the caller.
Modify the callers of these functions to check the error code and fail
properly. This ensures we don't attempt to use a bad path that doesn't
match the corresponding submodule.
Because this change fixes add_submodule_odb() to work even if the
submodule is not checked out, update the wording of the submodule log
diff format to correctly display that the submodule is "not initialized"
instead of "not checked out"
Add tests to ensure this change works as expected.

If we're overwriting a symref with a SHA-1, we need to resolve the value
of the symref (1) to check against update->old_sha1 and (2) to write to
its reflog. However, we've already read the symref itself and know its
referent. So there is no need to read the symref's value through the
symref; we can read the referent directly.

If there is a file under "$GIT_DIR/logs" with no corresponding
reference, the old code was emitting an error message, aborting the
reflog iteration, and returning -1. But
* None of the callers was checking the exit value
* The callers all want to find all legitimate reflogs (sometimes for the
purpose of determining object reachability!) and wouldn't benefit from
a truncated iteration anyway.
So instead, emit an error message and skip the "broken" reflog, but
continue with the iteration.

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.
