2021-10-12leak tests: mark some misc tests as passing with SANITIZE=leakLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+1
Mark some tests that match "*{mktree,commit,diff,grep,rm,merge,hunk}*" as passing when git is compiled with SANITIZE=leak. They'll now be listed as running under the "GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" test mode (the "linux-leaks" CI target). These were picked because we still have a lot of failures in adjacent areas, and we didn't have much if any coverage of e.g. grep and diff before this change, we could still whitelist a lot more tests, but let's stop for now.

2021-05-11grep/pcre2 tests: reword comments referring to kwsetLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-2/+2

2019-07-01grep: drop support for \0 in --fixed-strings <pattern>Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-41/+41
Change "-f <file>" to not support patterns with a NUL-byte in them under --fixed-strings. We'll now only support these under "--perl-regexp" with PCRE v2. A previous change to grep's documentation changed the description of "-f <file>" to be vague enough as to not promise that this would work. By dropping support for this we make it a whole lot easier to move away from the kwset backend, which we'll do in a subsequent change.

2019-07-01grep: make the behavior for NUL-byte in patterns saneLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-73/+86
The behavior of "grep" when patterns contained a NUL-byte has always been haphazard, and has served the vagaries of the implementation more than anything else. A pattern containing a NUL-byte can only be provided via "-f <file>". Since pickaxe (log search) has no such flag the NUL-byte in patterns has only ever been supported by "grep" (and not "log --grep"). Since 9eceddeec6 ("Use kwset in grep", 2011-08-21) patterns containing "\0" were considered fixed. In 966be95549 ("grep: add tests to fix blind spots with \0 patterns", 2017-05-20) I added tests for this behavior. Change the behavior to do the obvious thing, i.e. don't silently discard a regex pattern and make it implicitly fixed just because they contain a NUL-byte. Instead die if the backend in question can't handle them, e.g. --basic-regexp is combined with such a pattern. This is desired because from a user's point of view it's the obvious thing to do. Whether we support BRE/ERE/Perl syntax is different from whether our implementation is limited by C-strings. These patterns are obscure enough that I think this behavior change is OK, especially since we never documented the old behavior. Doing this also makes it easier to replace the kwset backend with something else, since we'll no longer strictly need it for anything we can't easily use another fixed-string backend for.

2019-07-01grep tests: move binary pattern tests into their own fileLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+114
Move the tests for "-f <file>" where "<file>" contains a NUL byte pattern into their own file. I added most of these tests in 966be95549 ("grep: add tests to fix blind spots with \0 patterns", 2017-05-20). Whether a regex engine supports matching binary content is very different from whether it matches binary patterns. Since 2f8952250a ("regex: add regexec_buf() that can work on a non NUL-terminated string", 2016-09-21) we've required REG_STARTEND of our regex engines so we can match binary content, but only the PCRE v2 engine can sensibly match binary patterns. Since 9eceddeec6 ("Use kwset in grep", 2011-08-21) we've been punting patterns containing NUL-byte and considering them fixed, except in cases where "--ignore-case" is provided and they're non-ASCII, see 5c1ebcca4d ("grep/icase: avoid kwsset on literal non-ascii strings", 2016-06-25). Subsequent commits will change this behavior. Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
