2014-01-16do not discard revindex when re-preparing packfilesLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+0
When an object lookup fails, we re-read the objects/pack directory to pick up any new packfiles that may have been created since our last read. We also discard any pack revindex structs we've allocated. The discarding is a problem for the pack-bitmap code, which keeps a pointer to the revindex for the bitmapped pack. After the discard, the pointer is invalid, and we may read free()d memory. Other revindex users do not keep a bare pointer to the revindex; instead, they always access it through revindex_for_pack(), which lazily builds the revindex. So one solution is to teach the pack-bitmap code a similar trick. It would be slightly less efficient, but probably not all that noticeable. However, it turns out this discarding is not actually necessary. When we call reprepare_packed_git, we do not throw away our old pack list. We keep the existing entries, and only add in new ones. So there is no safety problem; we will still have the pack struct that matches each revindex. The packfile itself may go away, of course, but we are already prepared to handle that, and it may happen outside of reprepare_packed_git anyway. Throwing away the revindex may save some RAM if the pack never gets reused (about 12 bytes per object). But it also wastes some CPU time (to regenerate the index) if the pack does get reused. It's hard to say which is more valuable, but in either case, it happens very rarely (only when we race with a simultaneous repack). Just leaving the revindex in place is simple and safe both for current and future code. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-01-06safe_create_leading_directories(): add new error value SCLD_VANISHEDLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-0/+11
Add a new possible error result that can be returned by safe_create_leading_directories() and safe_create_leading_directories_const(): SCLD_VANISHED. This value indicates that a file or directory on the path existed at one point (either it already existed or the function created it), but then it disappeared. This probably indicates that another process deleted the directory while we were working. If SCLD_VANISHED is returned, the caller might want to retry the function call, as there is a chance that a new attempt will succeed. Why doesn't safe_create_leading_directories() do the retrying internally? Because an empty directory isn't really ever safe until it holds a file. So even if safe_create_leading_directories() were absolutely sure that the directory existed before it returned, there would be no guarantee that the directory still existed when the caller tried to write something in it.

2014-01-06safe_create_leading_directories(): split on first of multiple slashesLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-2/+3
If the input path has multiple slashes between path components (e.g., "foo//bar"), then the old code was breaking the path at the last slash, not the first one. So in the above example, the second slash was overwritten with NUL, resulting in the parent directory being sought as "foo/". When stat() is called on "foo/", it fails with ENOTDIR if "foo" exists but is not a directory. This caused the wrong path to be taken in the subsequent logic. So instead, split path components at the first intercomponent slash rather than the last one. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-12-26sha1_object_info_extended: provide delta base sha1sLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+53
A caller of sha1_object_info_extended technically has enough information to determine the base sha1 from the results of the call. It knows the pack, offset, and delta type of the object, which is sufficient to find the base. However, the functions to do so are not publicly available, and the code itself is intimate enough with the pack details that it should be abstracted away. We could add a public helper to allow callers to query the delta base separately, but it is simpler and slightly more efficient to optionally grab it along with the rest of the object_info data. For cases where the object is not stored as a delta, we write the null sha1 into the query field. A careful caller could check "oi.whence == OI_PACKED && oi.u.packed.is_delta" before looking at the base sha1, but using the null sha1 provides a simple alternative (and gives a better sanity check for a non-careful caller than simply returning random bytes).

On broken systems where RLIMIT_NOFILE is visible by the compliers but underlying getrlimit() system call does not behave, we used to simply die() when we are trying to decide how many file descriptors to allocate for keeping packfiles open.

The same issue exists with _SC_OPEN_MAX and sysconf(); restructure the code in a similar way to prepare for a broken sysconf() as well.

2013-11-21drop support for "experimental" loose objectsLibravatar Jeff King1-74/+0
In git v1.4.3, we introduced a new loose object format that encoded some object information outside of the zlib stream. Ultimately the format was dropped in v1.5.3, but we kept the reading side around to help people migrate objects. Each time we open a loose object, we use a heuristic to check whether it is in the normal loose format, or the experimental one. This heuristic is robust in the face of valid data, but it tends to treat corrupted or garbage data as an experimental object. With the regular format, we would notice quickly that zlib's crc does not check out and complain. With the experimental object, we are likely to extract a nonsensical object size and try to allocate a huge buffer, resulting in xmalloc calling "die". This latter behavior is much worse, for two reasons. One, git reports an allocation error when the real error is corruption. And two, the program dies unconditionally, so you cannot even run fsck (which would otherwise ignore the broken object and keep going). We could try to improve the heuristic to err on the side of normal objects in the face of corruption, but there is really little point. The experimental format is long-dead, and was never enabled by default to begin with. We can instead simply remove it. The only affected repository would be one that explicitly set core.legacyheaders in 2007, and then never repacked in the intervening 6 years.

2013-10-28sha1_file.c:create_tmpfile(): Fix race when creating loose object dirsLibravatar Johan Herland1-1/+3
There are cases (e.g. when running concurrent fetches in a repo) where multiple Git processes concurrently attempt to create loose objects within the same objects/XX/ dir. The creation of the loose object files is (AFAICS) safe from races, but the creation of the objects/XX/ dir in which the loose objects reside is unsafe, for example: Two concurrent fetches - A and B. As part of its fetch, A needs to store 12aaaaa as a loose object. B, on the other hand, needs to store 12bbbbb as a loose object. The objects/12 directory does not already exist. Concurrently, both A and B determine that they need to create the objects/12 directory (because their first call to git_mkstemp_mode() within create_tmpfile() fails witn ENOENT). One of them - let's say A - executes the following mkdir() call before the other. This first call returns success, and A moves on. When B gets around to calling mkdir(), it fails with EEXIST, because A won the race. The mkdir() error causes B to return -1 from create_tmpfile(), which propagates all the way, resulting in the fetch failing with: error: unable to create temporary file: File exists fatal: failed to write object fatal: unpack-objects failed Although it's hard to add a testcase reproducing this issue, it's easy to provoke if we insert a sleep after the if (mkdir(buffer, 0777) || adjust_shared_perm(buffer)) return -1; block, and then run two concurrent "git fetch"es against the same repo. The fix is to simply handle mkdir() failing with EEXIST as a success. If EEXIST is somehow returned for the wrong reasons (because the relevant objects/XX is not a directory, or is otherwise unsuitable for object storage), the following call to adjust_shared_perm(), or ultimately the retried call to git_mkstemp_mode() will fail, and we end up returning error from create_tmpfile() in any case. Note that there are still cases where two users with unsuitable umasks in a shared repo can end up in two races where one user first wins the mkdir() race to create an objects/XX/ directory, and then the other user wins the adjust_shared_perms() race to chmod() that directory, but fails because it is (transiently, until the first users completes its chmod()) unwriteable to the other user. However, (an equivalent of) this race also exists before this patch, and is made no worse by this patch.

2013-08-30has_sha1_file: re-check pack directory before giving upLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+4
When we read a sha1 file, we first look for a packed version, then a loose version, and then re-check the pack directory again before concluding that we cannot find it. This lets us handle a process that is writing to the repository simultaneously (e.g., receive-pack writing a new pack followed by a ref update, or git-repack packing existing loose objects into a new pack). However, we do not do the same trick with has_sha1_file; we only check the packed objects once, followed by loose objects. This means that we might incorrectly report that we do not have an object, even though we could find it if we simply re-checked the pack directory. By itself, this is usually not a big deal. The other process is running simultaneously, so we may run has_sha1_file before it writes, anyway. It is a race whether we see the object or not. However, we may also see other things the writing process has done (like updating refs); and in that case, we must be able to also see the new objects. For example, imagine we are doing a for_each_ref iteration, and somebody simultaneously pushes. Receive-pack may write the pack and update a ref after we have examined the objects/pack directory, but before the iteration gets to the updated ref. When we do finally see the updated ref, for_each_ref will call has_sha1_file to check whether the ref is broken. If has_sha1_file returns the wrong answer, we erroneously will think that the ref is broken. For a normal iteration without DO_FOR_EACH_INCLUDE_BROKEN, this means that the caller does not see the ref at all (neither the old nor the new value). So not only will we fail to see the new value of the ref (which is acceptable, since we are running simultaneously with the writer, and we might well read the ref before the writer commits its write), but we will not see the old value either. For programs that act on reachability like pack-objects or prune, this can cause data loss, as we may see the objects referenced by the original ref value as dangling (and either omit them from the pack, or delete them via prune). There's no test included here, because the success case is two processes running simultaneously forever. But you can replicate the issue with: # base.sh # run this in one terminal; it creates and pushes # repeatedly to a repository git init parent && (cd parent && # create a base commit that will trigger us looking at # the objects/pack directory before we hit the updated ref echo content >file && git add file && git commit -m base && # set the unpack limit abnormally low, which # lets us simulate full-size pushes using tiny ones git config receive.unpackLimit 1 ) && git clone parent child && cd child && n=0 && while true; do echo $n >file && git add file && git commit -m $n && git push origin HEAD:refs/remotes/child/master && n=$(($n + 1)) done # fsck.sh # now run this simultaneously in another terminal; it # repeatedly fscks, looking for us to consider the # newly-pushed ref broken. We cannot use for-each-ref # here, as it uses DO_FOR_EACH_INCLUDE_BROKEN, which # skips the has_sha1_file check (and if it wants # more information on the object, it will actually read # the object, which does the proper two-step lookup) cd parent && while true; do broken=`git fsck 2>&1 | grep remotes/child` if test -n "$broken"; then echo $broken exit 1 fi done Without this patch, the fsck loop fails within a few seconds (and almost instantly if the test repository actually has a large number of refs).

2013-08-02Don't close pack fd when free'ing pack windowsLibravatar Brandon Casey1-14/+7
Now that close_one_pack() has been introduced to handle file descriptor pressure, it is not strictly necessary to close the pack file descriptor in unuse_one_window() when we're under memory pressure. Jeff King provided a justification for leaving the pack file open: If you close packfile descriptors, you can run into racy situations where somebody else is repacking and deleting packs, and they go away while you are trying to access them. If you keep a descriptor open, you're fine; they last to the end of the process. If you don't, then they disappear from under you. For normal object access, this isn't that big a deal; we just rescan the packs and retry. But if you are packing yourself (e.g., because you are a pack-objects started by upload-pack for a clone or fetch), it's much harder to recover (and we print some warnings).

2013-08-02sha1_file: introduce close_one_pack() to close packs on fd pressureLibravatar Brandon Casey1-1/+78
When the number of open packs exceeds pack_max_fds, unuse_one_window() is called repeatedly to attempt to release the least-recently-used pack windows, which, as a side-effect, will also close a pack file after closing its last open window. If a pack file has been opened, but no windows have been allocated into it, it will never be selected by unuse_one_window() and hence its file descriptor will not be closed. When this happens, git may exceed the number of file descriptors permitted by the system. This latter situation can occur in show-ref or receive-pack during ref advertisement. During ref advertisement, receive-pack will iterate over every ref in the repository and advertise it to the client after ensuring that the ref exists in the local repository. If the ref is located inside a pack, then the pack is opened to ensure that it exists, but since the object is not actually read from the pack, no mmap windows are allocated. When the number of open packs exceeds pack_max_fds, unuse_one_window() will not be able to find any windows to free and will not be able to close any packs. Once the per-process file descriptor limit is exceeded, receive-pack will produce a warning, not an error, for each pack it cannot open, and will then most likely fail with an error to spawn rev-list or index-pack like: error: cannot create standard input pipe for rev-list: Too many open files error: Could not run 'git rev-list' This may also occur during upload-pack when refs are packed (in the packed-refs file) and the number of packs that must be opened to verify that these packed refs exist exceeds the file descriptor limit. If the refs are loose, then upload-pack will read each ref from the object database (if the object is in a pack, allocating one or more mmap windows for it) in order to peel tags and advertise the underlying object. But when the refs are packed and peeled, upload-pack will use the peeled sha1 in the packed-refs file and will not need to read from the pack files, so no mmap windows will be allocated and just like with receive-pack, unuse_one_window() will never select these opened packs to close. When we have file descriptor pressure, we just need to find an open pack to close. We can leave the existing mmap windows open. If additional windows need to be mapped into the pack file, it will be reopened when necessary. If the pack file has been rewritten in the mean time, open_packed_git_1() should notice when it compares the file size or the pack's sha1 checksum to what was previously read from the pack index, and reject it. Let's introduce a new function close_one_pack() designed specifically for this purpose to search for and close the least-recently-used pack, where LRU is defined as (in order of preference): * pack with oldest mtime and no allocated mmap windows * pack with the least-recently-used windows, i.e. the pack with the oldest most-recently-used window, where none of the windows are in use * pack with the least-recently-used windows Signed-off-by: Brandon Casey <drafnel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-07-18Fix some sparse warningsLibravatar Ramsay Jones1-1/+1
Sparse issues some "Using plain integer as NULL pointer" warnings. Each warning relates to the use of an '{0}' initialiser expression in the declaration of an 'struct object_info'. The first field of this structure has pointer type. Thus, in order to suppress these warnings, we replace the initialiser expression with '{NULL}'.

2013-07-12sha1_object_info_extended: pass object_info to helpersLibravatar Jeff King1-27/+22
We take in a "struct object_info" which contains pointers to storage for items the caller cares about. But then rather than pass the whole object to the low-level loose/packed helper functions, we pass the individual pointers. Let's pass the whole struct instead, which will make adding more items later easier. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-07-12sha1_object_info_extended: make type calculation optionalLibravatar Jeff King1-7/+13
Each caller of sha1_object_info_extended sets up an object_info struct to tell the function which elements of the object it wants to get. Until now, getting the type of the object has always been required (and it is returned via the return type rather than a pointer in object_info). This can involve actually opening a loose object file to determine its type, or following delta chains to determine a packed file's base type. These effects produce a measurable slow-down when doing a "cat-file --batch-check" that does not include %(objecttype). This patch adds a "typep" query to struct object_info, so that it can be optionally queried just like size and disk_size. As a result, the return type of the function is no longer the object type, but rather 0/-1 for success/error. As there are only three callers total, we just fix up each caller rather than keep a compatibility wrapper: 1. The simpler sha1_object_info wrapper continues to always ask for and return the type field. 2. The istream_source function wants to know the type, and so always asks for it. 3. The cat-file batch code asks for the type only when %(objecttype) is part of the format string. On linux.git, the best-of-five for running: $ git rev-list --objects --all >objects $ time git cat-file --batch-check='%(objectsize:disk)' on a fully packed repository goes from: real 0m8.680s user 0m8.160s sys 0m0.512s to: real 0m7.205s user 0m6.580s sys 0m0.608s Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-07-12packed_object_info: make type lookup optionalLibravatar Jeff King1-9/+16
Currently, packed_object_info can save some work by not calculating the size or disk_size of the object if the caller is not interested. However, it always calculates the true object type, whether the caller cares or not, and only optionally returns the easy-to-get "representation type". Let's swap these types. The function will now return the representation type (or OBJ_BAD on failure), and will only optionally fill in the true type. There should be no behavior change yet, as the only caller, sha1_object_info_extended, will always feed it a type pointer.

2013-07-12packed_object_info: hoist delta type resolution to helperLibravatar Jeff King1-40/+53
To calculate the type of a packed object, we must walk down its delta chain until we hit a true base object with a real type. Most of the code in packed_object_info is for handling this case. Let's hoist it out into a separate helper function, which will make it easier to make the type-lookup optional in the future (and keep our indentation level sane).

2013-07-12sha1_loose_object_info: make type lookup optionalLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+43
Until recently, the only items to request from sha1_object_info_extended were type and size. This meant that we always had to open a loose object file to determine one or the other. But with the addition of the disk_size query, it's possible that we can fulfill the query without even opening the object file at all. However, since the function interface always returns the type, we have no way of knowing whether the caller cares about it or not. This patch only modified sha1_loose_object_info to make type lookup optional using an out-parameter, similar to the way the size is handled (and the return value is "0" or "-1" for success or error, respectively). There should be no functional change yet, though, as sha1_object_info_extended, the only caller, will always ask for a type.
