2019-08-22Merge branch 'jk/tree-walk-overflow'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+13
Codepaths to walk tree objects have been audited for integer overflows and hardened. * jk/tree-walk-overflow: tree-walk: harden make_traverse_path() length computations tree-walk: add a strbuf wrapper for make_traverse_path() tree-walk: accept a raw length for traverse_path_len() tree-walk: use size_t consistently tree-walk: drop oid from traverse_info setup_traverse_info(): stop copying oid
2019-08-01tree-walk: harden make_traverse_path() length computationsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The make_traverse_path() function isn't very careful about checking its output buffer boundaries. In fact, it doesn't even _know_ the size of the buffer it's writing to, and just assumes that the caller used traverse_path_len() correctly. And even then we assume that our traverse_info.pathlen components are all correct, and just blindly write into the buffer. Let's improve this situation a bit: - have the caller pass in their allocated buffer length, which we'll check against our own computations - check for integer underflow as we do our backwards-insertion of pathnames into the buffer - check that we do not run out items in our list to traverse before we've filled the expected number of bytes None of these should be triggerable in practice (especially since our switch to size_t everywhere in a previous commit), but it doesn't hurt to check our assumptions.

2019-08-01tree-walk: add a strbuf wrapper for make_traverse_path()Libravatar Jeff King1-0/+3
All but one of the callers of make_traverse_path() allocate a new heap buffer to store the path. Let's give them an easy way to write to a strbuf, which saves them from computing the length themselves (which is especially tricky when they want to add to the path). It will also make it easier for us to change the make_traverse_path() interface in a future patch to improve its bounds-checking.

2019-08-01tree-walk: accept a raw length for traverse_path_len()Libravatar Jeff King1-2/+3
We take a "struct name_entry", but only care about the length of the path name. Let's just take that length directly, making it easier to use the function from callers that sometimes do not have a name_entry at all.

2019-08-01tree-walk: use size_t consistentlyLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+3
We store and manipulate the cumulative traverse_info.pathlen as an "int", which can overflow when we are fed ridiculously long pathnames (e.g., ones at the edge of 2GB or 4GB, even if the individual tree entry names are smaller than that). The results can be confusing, though after some prodding I was not able to use this integer overflow to cause an under-allocated buffer. Let's consistently use size_t to generate and store these, and make sure our addition doesn't overflow. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-07-31tree-walk: drop oid from traverse_infoLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+6
As the previous commit shows, the presence of an oid in each level of the traverse_info is confusing and ultimately not necessary. Let's drop it to make it clear that it will not always be set (as well as convince us that it's unused, and let the compiler catch any merges with other branches that do add new uses). Since the oid is part of name_entry, we'll actually stop embedding a name_entry entirely, and instead just separately hold the pathname, its length, and the mode. This makes the resulting code slightly more verbose as we have to pass those elements around individually. But it also makes it more clear what each code path is going to use (and in most of the paths, we really only care about the pathname itself). A few of these conversions are noisier than they need to be, as they also take the opportunity to rename "len" to "namelen" for clarity (especially where we also have "pathlen" or "ce_len" alongside).

2019-05-05*.[ch]: remove extern from function declarations using spatchLibravatar Denton Liu1-2/+2
There has been a push to remove extern from function declarations. Remove some instances of "extern" for function declarations which are caught by Coccinelle. Note that Coccinelle has some difficulty with processing functions with `__attribute__` or varargs so some `extern` declarations are left behind to be dealt with in a future patch. This was the Coccinelle patch used: @@ type T; identifier f; @@ - extern T f(...); and it was run with: $ git ls-files \*.{c,h} | grep -v ^compat/ | xargs spatch --sp-file contrib/coccinelle/noextern.cocci --in-place Files under `compat/` are intentionally excluded as some are directly copied from external sources and we should avoid churning them as much as possible.

2019-01-15tree-walk: store object_id in a separate memberLibravatar brian m. carlson1-3/+6
When parsing a tree, we read the object ID directly out of the tree buffer. This is normally fine, but such an object ID cannot be used with oidcpy, which copies GIT_MAX_RAWSZ bytes, because if we are using SHA-1, there may not be that many bytes to copy. Instead, store the object ID in a separate struct member. Since we can no longer efficiently compute the path length, store that information as well in struct name_entry. Ensure we only copy the object ID into the new buffer if the path length is nonzero, as some callers will pass us an empty path with no object ID following it, and we will not want to read past the end of the buffer.

2018-11-19tree-walk.c: make tree_entry_interesting() take an indexLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-4/+6
In order to support :(attr) when matching pathspec on a tree, tree_entry_interesting() needs to take an index (because git_check_attr() needs it). This is the preparation step for it.

2016-01-05do_compare_entry: use already-computed pathLibravatar David Turner1-0/+1
In traverse_trees, we generate the complete traverse path for a traverse_info. Later, in do_compare_entry, we used to go do a bunch of work to compare the traverse_info to a cache_entry's name without computing that path. But since we already have that path, we don't need to do all that work. Instead, we can just put the generated path into the traverse_info, and do the comparison more directly. We copy the path because prune_traversal might mutate `base`. This doesn't happen in any codepaths where do_compare_entry is called, but it's better to be safe. This makes git checkout much faster -- about 25% on Twitter's monorepo. Deeper directory trees are likely to benefit more than shallower ones.

2014-02-24tree-walk: finally switch over tree descriptors to contain a pre-parsed entryLibravatar Kirill Smelkov1-1/+1
This continues 4651ece8 (Switch over tree descriptors to contain a pre-parsed entry) and moves the only rest computational part mode = canon_mode(mode) from tree_entry_extract() to tree entry decode phase - to decode_tree_entry(). The reason to do it, is that canon_mode() is at least 2 conditional jumps for regular files, and that could be noticeable should canon_mode() be invoked several times. That does not matter for current Git codebase, where typical tree traversal is while (t->size) { sha1 = tree_entry_extract(t, &path, &mode); ... update_tree_entry(t); } i.e. we do t -> sha1,path.mode "extraction" only once per entry. In such cases, it does not matter performance-wise, where that mode canonicalization is done - either once in tree_entry_extract(), or once in decode_tree_entry() called by update_tree_entry() - it is approximately the same. But for future code, which could need to work with several tree_desc's in parallel, it could be handy to operate on tree_desc descriptors, and do "extracts" only when needed, or at all, access only relevant part of it through structure fields directly. And for such situations, having canon_mode() be done once in decode phase is better - we won't need to pay the performance price of 2 extra conditional jumps on every t->mode access. So let's move mode canonicalization to decode_tree_entry(). That was the final bit. Now after tree entry is decoded, it is fully ready and could be accessed either directly via field, or through tree_entry_extract() which this time got really "totally trivial".

2011-08-29traverse_trees(): allow pruning with pathspecLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
The traverse_trees() machinery is primarily meant for merging two (or more) trees, and because a merge is a full tree operation, it doesn't support any pruning with pathspec. Since d1f2d7e (Make run_diff_index() use unpack_trees(), not read_tree(), 2008-01-19), however, we use unpack_trees() to traverse_trees() callchain to perform "diff-index", which could waste a lot of work traversing trees outside the user-supplied pathspec, only to discard at the blob comparison level in diff-lib.c::oneway_diff() which is way too late.

Current code allocates a new buffer, do two memcpy(), use it, then release. Instead this patch turns "base" to a writable, extendable buffer. When a concatenation is needed, the callee only needs to append "entry" to base, use it, then truncate the entry out again. "base" must remain unchanged before and after entering a function.

2007-03-21Switch over tree descriptors to contain a pre-parsed entryLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-5/+13
This makes the tree descriptor contain a "struct name_entry" as part of it, and it gets filled in so that it always contains a valid entry. On some benchmarks, it improves performance by up to 15%. That makes tree entry "extract" trivial, and means that we only actually need to decode each tree entry just once: we decode the first one when we initialize the tree descriptor, and each subsequent one when doing "update_tree_entry()". In particular, this means that we don't need to do strlen() both at extract time _and_ at update time. Finally, it also allows more sharing of code (entry_extract(), that wanted a "struct name_entry", just got totally trivial, along with the "tree_entry()" function).

2007-03-18Avoid unnecessary strlen() callsLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+5
This is a micro-optimization that grew out of the mailing list discussion about "strlen()" showing up in profiles. We used to pass regular C strings around to the low-level tree walking routines, and while this worked fine, it meant that we needed to call strlen() on strings that the caller always actually knew the size of anyway. So pass the length of the string down wih the string, and avoid unnecessary calls to strlen(). Also, when extracting a pathname from a tree entry, use "tree_entry_len()" instead of strlen(), since the length of the pathname is directly calculable from the decoded tree entry itself without having to actually do another strlen(). This shaves off another ~5-10% from some loads that are very tree intensive (notably doing commit filtering by a pathspec).

2006-05-30tree_entry(): new tree-walking helper functionLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-1/+4
This adds a "tree_entry()" function that combines the common operation of doing a "tree_entry_extract()" + "update_tree_entry()". It also has a simplified calling convention, designed for simple loops that traverse over a whole tree: the arguments are pointers to the tree descriptor and a name_entry structure to fill in, and it returns a boolean "true" if there was an entry left to be gotten in the tree. This allows tree traversal with struct tree_desc desc; struct name_entry entry; desc.buf = tree->buffer; desc.size = tree->size; while (tree_entry(&desc, &entry) { ... use "entry.{path, sha1, mode, pathlen}" ... } which is not only shorter than writing it out in full, it's hopefully less error prone too. [ It's actually a tad faster too - we don't need to recalculate the entry pathlength in both extract and update, but need to do it only once. Also, some callers can avoid doing a "strlen()" on the result, since it's returned as part of the name_entry structure. However, by now we're talking just 1% speedup on "git-rev-list --objects --all", and we're definitely at the point where tree walking is no longer the issue any more. ] NOTE! Not everybody wants to use this new helper function, since some of the tree walkers very much on purpose do the descriptor update separately from the entry extraction. So the "extract + update" sequence still remains as the core sequence, this is just a simplified interface. We should probably add a silly two-line inline helper function for initializing the descriptor from the "struct tree" too, just to cut down on the noise from that common "desc" initializer.
