2010-08-20xmalloc: include size in the failure messageLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-1/+2
Out-of-memory errors can either be actual lack of memory, or bugs (like code trying to call xmalloc(-1) by mistake). A little more information may help tracking bugs reported by users. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-06-13Merge branch 'js/try-to-free-stackable'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+4
* js/try-to-free-stackable: Do not call release_pack_memory in malloc wrappers when GIT_TRACE is used Have set_try_to_free_routine return the previous routine
2010-05-21Merge branch 'np/malloc-threading'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+16
* np/malloc-threading: Thread-safe xmalloc and xrealloc needs a recursive mutex Make xmalloc and xrealloc thread-safe
2010-05-08Have set_try_to_free_routine return the previous routineLibravatar Johannes Sixt1-2/+4
This effectively requires from the callers of set_try_to_free_routine to treat the try-to-free-routines as a stack. We will need this for the next patch where the only current caller cannot depend on that the previously set routine was the default routine.

2010-03-28Introduce remove_or_warn functionLibravatar Peter Collingbourne1-0/+5
This patch introduces the remove_or_warn function which is a generalised version of the {unlink,rmdir}_or_warn functions. It takes an additional parameter indicating the mode of the file to be removed. The patch also modifies certain functions to use remove_or_warn where appropriate, and adds a test case for a bug fixed by the use of remove_or_warn.

2010-03-28Implement the rmdir_or_warn functionLibravatar Peter Collingbourne1-0/+5
This patch implements an rmdir_or_warn function (like unlink_or_warn but for directories) that uses the generalised warning code in warn_if_unremovable. Signed-off-by: Peter Collingbourne <peter@pcc.me.uk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-03-28Generalise the unlink_or_warn functionLibravatar Peter Collingbourne1-5/+7
This patch moves the warning code of the unlink_or_warn function into a separate function named warn_if_unremovable so that it may be reused. Signed-off-by: Peter Collingbourne <peter@pcc.me.uk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-03-24Make xmalloc and xrealloc thread-safeLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-4/+16
By providing a hook for the routine responsible for trying to free some memory on malloc failure, we can ensure that the called routine is protected by the appropriate locks when threads are in play. The obvious offender here was pack-objects which was calling xmalloc() within threads while release_pack_memory() is not thread safe.

2010-02-22Use git_mkstemp_mode and xmkstemp_mode in odb_mkstemp, not chmod later.Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-3/+7
We used to create 0600 files, and then use chmod to set the group and other permission bits to the umask. This usually has the same effect as a normal file creation with a umask. But in the presence of ACLs, the group permission plays the role of the ACL mask: the "g" bits of newly created files are chosen according to default ACL mask of the directory, not according to the umask, and doing a chmod() on these "g" bits affect the ACL's mask instead of actual group permission. In other words, creating files with 0600 and then doing a chmod to the umask creates files which are unreadable by users allowed in the default ACL. To create the files without breaking ACLs, we let the umask do it's job at the file's creation time, and get rid of the later chmod.

2010-02-22git_mkstemp_mode, xmkstemp_mode: variants of gitmkstemps with mode argument.Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-0/+10
gitmkstemps emulates the behavior of mkstemps, which is usually used to create files in a shared directory like /tmp/, hence, it creates files with permission 0600. Add git_mkstemps_mode() that allows us to specify the desired mode, and make git_mkstemps() a wrapper that always uses 0600 to call it. Later we will use git_mkstemps_mode() when creating pack files.

2009-06-27Convert existing die(..., strerror(errno)) to die_errno()Libravatar Thomas Rast1-4/+4
Change calls to die(..., strerror(errno)) to use the new die_errno(). In the process, also make slight style adjustments: at least state _something_ about the function that failed (instead of just printing the pathname), and put paths in single quotes.

2009-04-29Introduce an unlink(2) wrapper which gives warning if unlink failedLibravatar Alex Riesen1-0/+16
This seem to be a very common pattern in the current code. The function prints a generic removal failure message, the file name which failed and readable errno presentation. The function preserves errno and always returns the value unlink(2) returned, but prints no message for ENOENT, as it was the most often filtered out in the code calling unlink. Besides, removing a file is anyway the purpose of calling unlink. Signed-off-by: Alex Riesen <raa.lkml@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* jc/maint-1.6.0-pack-directory: Fix odb_mkstemp() on AIX
2009-02-26Fix odb_mkstemp() on AIXLibravatar Mike Ralphson1-1/+2
The AIX mkstemp() modifies its template parameter to an empty string if the call fails. The existing code had already recomputed the template, but too late to be good. See also 6ff6af62, which fixed this problem in a different spot.

* jc/maint-1.6.0-pack-directory: Make sure objects/pack exists before creating a new pack
2009-02-25Make sure objects/pack exists before creating a new packLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+32
In a repository created with git older than f49fb35 (git-init-db: create "pack" subdirectory under objects, 2005-06-27), objects/pack/ directory is not created upon initialization. It was Ok because subdirectories are created as needed inside directories init-db creates, and back then, packfiles were recent invention. After the said commit, new codepaths started relying on the presense of objects/pack/ directory in the repository. This was exacerbated with 8b4eb6b (Do not perform cross-directory renames when creating packs, 2008-09-22) that moved the location temporary pack files are created from objects/ directory to objects/pack/ directory, because moving temporary to the final location was done carefully with lazy leading directory creation. Many packfile related operations in such an old repository can fail mysteriously because of this. This commit introduces two helper functions to make things work better. - odb_mkstemp() is a specialized version of mkstemp() to refactor the code and teach it to create leading directories as needed; - odb_pack_keep() refactors the code to create a ".keep" file while create leading directories as needed.

2009-01-11Wrap inflate and other zlib routines for better error reportingLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+60
R. Tyler Ballance reported a mysterious transient repository corruption; after much digging, it turns out that we were not catching and reporting memory allocation errors from some calls we make to zlib. This one _just_ wraps things; it doesn't do the "retry on low memory error" part, at least not yet. It is an independent issue from the reporting. Some of the errors are expected and passed back to the caller, but we die when zlib reports it failed to allocate memory for now. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-07-20Move read_in_full() and write_in_full() to wrapper.cLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+38
A few compat/* layer functions call these functions, but we would really want to keep them thin, without depending too much on the libgit proper. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-06-22Shrink the git binary a bit by avoiding unnecessary inline functionsLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+160
So I was looking at the disgusting size of the git binary, and even with the debugging removed, and using -Os instead of -O2, the size of the text section was pretty high. In this day and age I guess almost a megabyte of text isn't really all that surprising, but it still doesn't exactly make me think "lean and mean". With -Os, a surprising amount of text space is wasted on inline functions that end up just being replicated multiple times, and where performance really isn't a valid reason to inline them. In particular, the trivial wrapper functions like "xmalloc()" are used _everywhere_, and making them inline just duplicates the text (and the string we use to 'die()' on failure) unnecessarily. So this just moves them into a "wrapper.c" file, getting rid of a tiny bit of unnecessary bloat. The following numbers are both with "CFLAGS=-Os": Before: [torvalds@woody git]$ size git text data bss dec hex filename 700460 15160 292184 1007804 f60bc git After: [torvalds@woody git]$ size git text data bss dec hex filename 670540 15160 292184 977884 eebdc git so it saves almost 30k of text-space (it actually saves more than that with the default -O2, but I don't think that's necessarily a very relevant number from a "try to shrink git" standpoint). It might conceivably have a performance impact, but none of this should be _that_ performance critical. The real cost is not generally in the wrapper anyway, but in the code it wraps (ie the cost of "xread()" is all in the read itself, not in the trivial wrapping of it).
