2024-11-24Makefile(s): avoid recipe prefix in conditional statementsTaylor Blau
In GNU Make commit 07fcee35 ([SV 64815] Recipe lines cannot contain conditional statements, 2023-05-22) and following, conditional statements may no longer be preceded by a tab character (which Make refers to as the recipe prefix). There are a handful of spots in our various Makefile(s) which will break in a future release of Make containing 07fcee35. For instance, trying to compile the pre-image of this patch with the tip of make.git results in the following: $ make -v | head -1 && make GNU Make 4.4.90 config.mak.uname:842: *** missing 'endif'. Stop. The kernel addressed this issue in 82175d1f9430 (kbuild: Replace tabs with spaces when followed by conditionals, 2024-01-28). Address the issues in Git's tree by applying the same strategy. When a conditional word (ifeq, ifneq, ifdef, etc.) is preceded by one or more tab characters, replace each tab character with 8 space characters with the following: find . -type f -not -path './.git/*' -name Makefile -or -name '*.mak' | xargs perl -i -pe ' s/(\t+)(ifn?eq|ifn?def|else|endif)/" " x (length($1) * 8) . $2/ge unless /\\$/ ' The "unless /\\$/" removes any false-positives (like "\telse \" appearing within a shell script as part of a recipe). After doing so, Git compiles on newer versions of Make: $ make -v | head -1 && make GNU Make 4.4.90 GIT_VERSION = 2.44.0.414.gfac1dc44ca9 [...] $ echo $? 0 Reported-by: Dario Gjorgjevski <dario.gjorgjevski@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Cherry-picked-from: 728b9ac0c3b93aaa4ea80280c591deb198051785 Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org>

2024-10-10checkout: refer to other-worktree branch, not refKristoffer Haugsbakk
We can only check out commits or branches, not refs in general. And the problem here is if another worktree is using the branch that we want to check out. Let’s be more direct and just talk about branches instead of refs. Also replace “be held” with “in use”. Further, “in use” is not restricted to a branch being checked out (e.g. the branch could be busy on a rebase), hence generalize to “or otherwise in use” in the option description.

2024-10-10bundle-uri: plug leak in unbundle_from_file()Toon Claes
The function `unbundle_from_file()` has two memory leaks: - We do not release the `struct bundle_header header` when hitting errors because we return early without any cleanup. - We do not release the `struct strbuf bundle_ref` at all. Plug these leaks by creating a common exit path where both of these variables are released. While at it, refactor the code such that the variable assignments do not happen inside the conditional statement itself according to our coding style.

2024-10-10builtin/gc: fix crash when running `git maintenance start`Patrick Steinhardt
It was reported on the mailing list that running `git maintenance start` immediately segfaults starting with b6c3f8e12c (builtin/maintenance: fix leak in `get_schedule_cmd()`, 2024-09-26). And indeed, this segfault is trivial to reproduce up to a point where one is scratching their head why we didn't catch this regression in our test suite. The root cause of this error is `get_schedule_cmd()`, which does not populate the `out` parameter in all cases anymore starting with the mentioned commit. Callers do assume it to always be populated though and will e.g. call `strvec_split()` on the returned value, which will of course segfault when the variable is uninitialized. So why didn't we catch this trivial regression? The reason is that our tests always set up the "GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER" environment variable via "t/test-lib.sh", which allows us to override the scheduler command with a custom one so that we don't accidentally modify the developer's system. But the faulty code where we don't set the `out` parameter will only get hit in case that environment variable is _not_ set, which is never the case when executing our tests. Fix the regression by again unconditionally allocating the value in the `out` parameter, if provided. Add a test that unsets the environment variable to catch future regressions in this area.

2024-10-09doc: clarify <src> in refspec syntaxJunio C Hamano
We explicitly avoid saying "ref <src>" when introducing the source side of a refspec, because it can be a fully-spelled hexadecimal object name, and it also can be a pattern that is not quite a "ref". But we are loose when we introduce <dst> and say "ref <dst>", even though it can also be a pattern. Let's omit "ref" also from the destination side. Clarify that <src> can be a ref, a (limited glob) pattern, or an object name. Even though the very original design of refspec expected that '*' was used only at the end (e.g., "refs/heads/*" was expected, but not "refs/heads/*-wip"), the code and its use evolved to handle a single '*' anywhere in the pattern. Update the text to remove the mention of "the same prefix". Anything that matches the pattern are named by such a (limited glob) pattern in <src>. Also put a bit more stress on the fact that we accept only one '*' in the pattern by saying "one and only one `*`".

2024-10-08fsmonitor: initialize fs event listener before accepting clientsJeff King
There's a racy hang in fsmonitor on macOS that we sometimes see in CI. When we serve a client, what's supposed to happen is: 1. The client thread calls with_lock__wait_for_cookie() in which we create a cookie file and then wait for a pthread_cond event 2. The filesystem event listener sees the cookie file creation, does some internal book-keeping, and then triggers the pthread_cond. But there's a problem: we start the listener that accepts client threads before we start the fs event thread. So it's possible for us to accept a client which creates the cookie file and starts waiting before the fs event thread is initialized, and we miss those filesystem events entirely. That leaves the client thread hanging forever. In CI, the symptom is that t9210 (which is testing scalar, which always enables fsmonitor under the hood) may hang forever in "scalar clone". It is waiting on "git fetch" which is waiting on the fsmonitor daemon. The race happens more frequently under load, but you can trigger it predictably with a sleep like this, which delays the start of the fs event thread: --- a/compat/fsmonitor/fsm-listen-darwin.c +++ b/compat/fsmonitor/fsm-listen-darwin.c @@ -510,6 +510,7 @@ void fsm_listen__loop(struct fsmonitor_daemon_state *state) FSEventStreamSetDispatchQueue(data->stream, data->dq); data->stream_scheduled = 1; + sleep(1); if (!FSEventStreamStart(data->stream)) { error(_("Failed to start the FSEventStream")); goto force_error_stop_without_loop; One solution might be to reverse the order of initialization: start the fs event thread before we start the thread listening for clients. But the fsmonitor code explicitly does it in the opposite direction. The fs event thread wants to refer to the ipc_server_data struct, so we need it to be initialized first. A further complication is that we need a signal from the fs event thread that it is actually ready and listening. And those details happen within backend-specific fsmonitor code, whereas the initialization is in the shared code. So instead, let's use the ipc_server init/start split added in the previous commit. The generic fsmonitor code will init the ipc_server but _not_ start it, leaving that to the backend specific code, which now needs to call ipc_server_start_async() at the right time. For macOS, that is right after we start the FSEventStream that you can see in the diff above. It's not clear to me if Windows suffers from the same problem (and we simply don't trigger it in CI), or if it is immune. Regardless, the obvious place to start accepting clients there is right after we've established the ReadDirectoryChanges watch. This makes the hangs go away in our macOS CI environment, even when compiled with the sleep() above.

2024-10-08simple-ipc: split async server initialization and runningJeff King
To start an async ipc server, you call ipc_server_run_async(). That initializes the ipc_server_data object, and starts all of the threads running, which may immediately start serving clients. This can create some awkward timing problems, though. In the fsmonitor daemon (the sole user of the simple-ipc system), we want to create the ipc server early in the process, which means we may start serving clients before the rest of the daemon is fully initialized. To solve this, let's break run_async() into two parts: an initialization which allocates all data and spawns the threads (without letting them run), and a start function which actually lets them begin work. Since we have two simple-ipc implementations, we have to handle this twice: - in ipc-unix-socket.c, we have a central listener thread which hands connections off to worker threads using a work_available mutex. We can hold that mutex after init, and release it when we're ready to start. We do need an extra "started" flag so that we know whether the main thread is holding the mutex or not (e.g., if we prematurely stop the server, we want to make sure all of the worker threads are released to hear about the shutdown). - in ipc-win32.c, we don't have a central mutex. So we'll introduce a new startup_barrier mutex, which we'll similarly hold until we're ready to let the threads proceed. We again need a "started" flag here to make sure that we release the barrier mutex when shutting down, so that the sub-threads can proceed to the finish. I've renamed the run_async() function to init_async() to make sure we catch all callers, since they'll now need to call the matching start_async(). We could leave run_async() as a wrapper that does both, but there's not much point. There are only two callers, one of which is fsmonitor, which will want to actually do work between the two calls. And the other is just a test-tool wrapper. For now I've added the start_async() calls in fsmonitor where they would otherwise have happened, so there should be no behavior change with this patch.

2024-10-07unpack-trees: detect mismatching number of cache-tree/index entriesPatrick Steinhardt

2024-10-07cache-tree: detect mismatching number of index entriesPatrick Steinhardt
In t4058 we have some tests that exercise git-read-tree(1) when used with a tree that contains duplicate entries. While the expectation is that we fail, we ideally should fail gracefully without a segfault. But that is not the case: we never check that the number of entries in the cache-tree is less than or equal to the number of entries in the index. This can lead to an out-of-bounds read as we unconditionally access `istate->cache[idx]`, where `idx` is controlled by the number of cache-tree entries and the current position therein. The result is a segfault. Fix this segfault by adding a sanity check for the number of index entries before dereferencing them.

2024-10-07cache-tree: refactor verification to return error codesPatrick Steinhardt
The function `cache_tree_verify()` will `BUG()` whenever it finds that the cache-tree extension of the index is corrupt. The function is thus inherently untestable because the resulting call to `abort()` will be detected by our testing framework and labelled an error. And rightfully so: it shouldn't ever be possible to hit bugs, as they should indicate a programming error rather than corruption of on-disk state. Refactor the function to instead return error codes. This also ensures that the function can be used e.g. by git-fsck(1) without the whole process dying. Furthermore, this refactoring plugs some memory leaks when returning early by creating a common exit path.
