With the preceding refactorings we now only have a couple of implicit
users of `the_repository` left in the "path" subsystem, all of which
depend on global state via `calc_shared_perm()`. Make the dependency on
`the_repository` explicit by passing the repo as a parameter instead and
adjust callers accordingly.
Note that this change bubbles up into a couple of subsystems that were
previously declared as free from `the_repository`. Instead of marking
all of them as `the_repository`-dependent again, we instead use the
repository that is available in the calling context. There are three
exceptions though with "copy.c", "pack-write.c" and "tempfile.c".
Adjusting these would require us to adapt callsites all over the place,
so this is left for a future iteration.
Mark "path.c" as free from `the_repository`.

The API around choosing to use unsafe variant of SHA-1
implementation has been updated in an attempt to make it harder to
abuse.

Adapt callers to use generic hash context helpers instead of using the
hash algorithm to update them. This makes the callsites easier to reason
about and removes the possibility that the wrong hash algorithm is used
to update the hash context's state. And as a nice side effect this also
gets rid of a bunch of users of `the_hash_algo`.

The hash context is supposed to be updated via the `git_hash_algo`
structure, which contains a list of function pointers to update, clone
or finalize a hashing context. This requires the callers to track which
algorithm was used to initialize the context and continue to use the
exact same algorithm. If they fail to do that correctly, it can happen
that we start to access context state of one hash algorithm with
functions of a different hash algorithm. The result would typically be a
segfault, as could be seen e.g. in the patches part of 98422943f0 (Merge
branch 'ps/weak-sha1-for-tail-sum-fix', 2025-01-01).
The situation was significantly improved starting with 04292c3796
(hash.h: drop unsafe_ function variants, 2025-01-23) and its parent
commits. These refactorings ensure that it is not possible to mix up
safe and unsafe variants of the same hash algorithm anymore. But in
theory, it is still possible to mix up different hash algorithms with
each other, even though this is a lot less likely to happen.
But still, we can do better: instead of asking the caller to remember
the hash algorithm used to initialize a context, we can instead make the
context itself remember which algorithm it has been initialized with. If
we do so, callers can use a set of generic helpers to update the context
and don't need to be aware of the hash algorithm at all anymore.
Adapt the context initialization functions to store the hash algorithm
in the hashing context and introduce these generic helpers. Callers will
be adapted in the subsequent commit.

We generally avoid using `typedef` in the Git codebase. One exception
though is the `git_hash_ctx`, likely because it used to be a union
rather than a struct until the preceding commit refactored it. But now
that it is a normal `struct` there isn't really a need for a typedef
anymore.
Drop the typedef and adapt all callers accordingly.

The `git_hash_context` is a union containing the different hash-specific
states for SHA1, its unsafe variant as well as SHA256. We know that only
one of these states will ever be in use at the same time because hash
contexts cannot be used for multiple different hashes at the same point
in time.
We're about to extend the structure though to keep track of the hash
algorithm used to initialize the context, which is impossible to do
while the context is a union. Refactor it to instead be a structure that
contains the union of context states.

Now that all callers have been converted from:
the_hash_algo->unsafe_init_fn();
to
unsafe_hash_algo(the_hash_algo)->init_fn();
and similar, we can remove the scaffolding for the unsafe_ function
variants and force callers to use the new unsafe_hash_algo() mechanic
instead.

In 253ed9ecff (hash.h: scaffolding for _unsafe hashing variants,
2024-09-26), we introduced "unsafe" variants of the SHA-1 hashing
functions by introducing new functions like "unsafe_init_fn()" and so
on.
This approach has a major shortcoming that callers must remember to
consistently use one variant or the other. Failing to consistently use
(or not use) the unsafe variants can lead to crashes at best, or subtle
memory corruption issues at worst.
In the hashfile API, this isn't difficult to achieve, but verifying that
all callers consistently use the unsafe variants is somewhat of a chore
given how spread out all of the callers are. In the sha1 and sha1-unsafe
test helpers, all of the calls to various hash functions are guarded by
an "if (unsafe)" conditional, which is repetitive and cumbersome.
Address these issues by introducing a new pattern whereby one
'git_hash_algo' can return a pointer to another 'git_hash_algo' that
represents the unsafe version of itself. So instead of having something
like:
if (unsafe)
the_hash_algo->init_fn(...);
the_hash_algo->update_fn(...);
the_hash_algo->final_fn(...);
else
the_hash_algo->unsafe_init_fn(...);
the_hash_algo->unsafe_update_fn(...);
the_hash_algo->unsafe_final_fn(...);
we can instead write:
struct git_hash_algo *algop = the_hash_algo;
if (unsafe)
algop = unsafe_hash_algo(algop);
algop->init_fn(...);
algop->update_fn(...);
algop->final_fn(...);
This removes the existing shortcoming by no longer forcing the caller to
"remember" which variant of the hash functions it wants to call, only to
hold onto a 'struct git_hash_algo' pointer that is initialized once.
Similarly, while there currently is still a way to "mix" safe and unsafe
functions, this too will go away after subsequent commits remove all
direct calls to the unsafe_ variants.
Note that hash_algo_by_ptr() needs an adjustment to allow passing in the
unsafe variant of a hash function. All other query functions on the
hash_algos array will continue to return the safe variants of any
function.

CI jobs gave sporadic failures, which turns out that that the
object finalization code was giving an error when it did not have
to.
* ps/object-collision-check:
object-file: retry linking file into place when occluding file vanishes
object-file: don't special-case missing source file in collision check
object-file: rename variables in `check_collision()`
object-file: fix race in object collision check
|
|
Prior to 0ad3d65652 (object-file: fix race in object collision check,
2024-12-30), callers could expect that a successful return from
`finalize_object_file()` means that either the file was moved into
place, or the identical bytes were already present. If neither of those
happens, we'd return an error.
Since that commit, if the destination file disappears between our
link(3p) call and the collision check, we'd return success without
actually checking the contents, and without retrying the link. This
solves the common case that the files were indeed the same, but it means
that we may corrupt the repository if they weren't (this implies a hash
collision, but the whole point of this function is protecting against
hash collisions).
We can't be pessimistic and assume they're different; that hurts the
common case that the mentioned commit was trying to fix. But after
seeing that the destination file went away, we can retry linking again.
Adapt the code to do so when we see that the destination file has racily
vanished. This should generally succeed as we have just observed that
the destination file does not exist anymore, except in the very unlikely
event that it gets recreated by another concurrent process again.

In 0ad3d65652 (object-file: fix race in object collision check,
2024-12-30) we have started to ignore ENOENT when opening either the
source or destination file of the collision check. This was done to
handle races more gracefully in case either of the potentially-colliding
disappears.
The fix is overly broad though: while the destination file may indeed
vanish racily, this shouldn't ever happen for the source file, which is
a temporary object file (either loose or in packfile format) that we
have just created. So if any concurrent process would have removed that
temporary file it would indicate an actual issue.
Stop treating ENOENT specially for the source file so that we always
bubble up this error.

One of the tests in t5616 asserts that git-fetch(1) with `--refetch`
triggers repository maintenance with the correct set of arguments. This
test is flaky and causes us to fail sometimes:
++ git -c protocol.version=0 -c gc.autoPackLimit=0 -c maintenance.incremental-repack.auto=1234 -C pc1 fetch --refetch origin
error: unable to open .git/objects/pack/pack-029d08823bd8a8eab510ad6ac75c823cfd3ed31e.pack: No such file or directory
fatal: unable to rename temporary file to '.git/objects/pack/pack-029d08823bd8a8eab510ad6ac75c823cfd3ed31e.pack'
fatal: could not finish pack-objects to repack local links
fatal: index-pack failed
error: last command exited with $?=128
The error message is quite confusing as it talks about trying to rename
a temporary packfile. A first hunch would thus be that this packfile
gets written by git-fetch(1), but removed by git-maintenance(1) while it
hasn't yet been finalized, which shouldn't ever happen. And indeed, when
looking closer one notices that the file that is supposedly of temporary
nature does not have the typical `tmp_pack_` prefix.
As it turns out, the "unable to rename temporary file" fatal error is a
red herring and the real error is "unable to open". That error is raised
by `check_collision()`, which is called by `finalize_object_file()` when
moving the new packfile into place. Because t5616 re-fetches objects, we
end up with the exact same pack as we already have in the repository. So
when the concurrent git-maintenance(1) process rewrites the preexisting
pack and unlinks it exactly at the point in time where git-fetch(1)
wants to check the old and new packfiles for equality we will see ENOENT
and thus `check_collision()` returns an error, which gets bubbled up by
`finalize_object_file()` and is then handled by `rename_tmp_packfile()`.
That function does not know about the exact root cause of the error and
instead just claims that the rename has failed.
This race is thus caused by b1b8dfde69 (finalize_object_file():
implement collision check, 2024-09-26), where we have newly introduced
the collision check.
By definition, two files cannot collide with each other when one of them
has been removed. We can thus trivially fix the issue by ignoring ENOENT
when opening either of the files we're about to check for collision.

We define macros with the bytes of the empty trees and blobs for sha1
and sha256. But since e1ccd7e2b1 (sha1_file: only expose empty object
constants through git_hash_algo, 2018-05-02), those are used only for
initializing the git_hash_algo entries. Any other code using the macros
directly would be suspicious, since a hash_algo pointer is the level of
indirection we use to make everything work with both sha1 and sha256.
So let's future proof against code doing the wrong thing by dropping the
macros entirely and just initializing the structs directly.

The cached-object API maps oids to in-memory entries. Once inserted,

The pretend_object_file() function adds to an array mapping oids to
object contents, which are later retrieved with find_cached_object().
We naturally need to store the oid for each entry, since it's the lookup
key.
But find_cached_object() also returns a hard-coded empty_tree object.
There we don't care about its oid field and instead compare against
the_hash_algo->empty_tree. The oid field is left as all-zeroes.
This all works, but it means that the cached_object struct we return
from find_cached_object() may or may not have a valid oid field, depend
whether it is the hard-coded tree or came from pretend_object_file().
Nobody looks at the field, so there's no bug. But let's future-proof it
by returning only the object contents themselves, not the oid. We'll
continue to call this "struct cached_object", and the array entry
mapping the key to those contents will be a "cached_object_entry".
This would also let us swap out the array for a better data structure
(like a hashmap) if we chose, but there's not much point. The only code
that adds an entry is git-blame, which adds at most a single entry per
process.

The fake empty_tree struct is a static global, but the only code that
looks at it is find_cached_object(). The struct itself is a little odd,
with an invalid "oid" field that is handled specially by that function.
Since it's really just an implementation detail, let's move it to a
static within the function. That future-proofs against other code trying
to use it and seeing the weird oid value.

We treat the empty tree specially, providing an in-memory "cached" copy,
which allows you to diff against it even if the object doesn't exist in
the repository. This is implemented as part of the larger cached_object
subsystem, but we use a stand-alone empty_tree struct.
We initialize the oid of that struct using EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN_LITERAL.
At first glance, that seems like a bug; how could this ever work for
sha256 repositories?
The answer is that we never look at the oid field! The oid field is used
to look up entries added by pretend_object_file() to the cached_objects
array. But for our stand-alone entry, we look for it independently using
the_hash_algo->empty_tree, which will point to the correct algo struct
for the repository.
This happened in 62ba93eaa9 (sha1_file: convert cached object code to
struct object_id, 2018-05-02), which even mentions that this field is
never used. Let's reduce confusion for anybody reading this code by
replacing the sha1 initializer with a comment. The resulting field will
be all-zeroes, so any violation of our assumption that the oid field is
not used will break equally for sha1 and sha256.

We hard-code a few well-known hash values for empty trees and blobs in
both sha1 and sha256 formats. We do so with string literals like this:
#define EMPTY_TREE_SHA256_BIN_LITERAL \
"\x6e\xf1\x9b\x41\x22\x5c\x53\x69\xf1\xc1" \
"\x04\xd4\x5d\x8d\x85\xef\xa9\xb0\x57\xb5" \
"\x3b\x14\xb4\xb9\xb9\x39\xdd\x74\xde\xcc" \
"\x53\x21"
and then use it to initialize the hash field of an object_id struct.
That hash field is exactly 32 bytes long (the size we need for sha256).
But the string literal above is actually 33 bytes long due to the NUL
terminator. This is legal in C, and the NUL is ignored.
Side note on legality: in general excess initializer elements are
forbidden, and gcc will warn on both of these:
char foo[3] = { 'h', 'u', 'g', 'e' };
char bar[3] = "VeryLongString";
I couldn't find specific language in the standard allowing
initialization from a string literal where _just_ the NUL is ignored,
but C99 section 6.7.8 (Initialization), paragraph 32 shows this exact
case as "example 8".
However, the upcoming gcc 15 will start warning for this case (when
compiled with -Wextra via DEVELOPER=1):
CC object-file.o
object-file.c:52:9: warning: initializer-string for array of ‘unsigned char’ is too long [-Wunterminated-string-initialization]
52 | "\x6e\xf1\x9b\x41\x22\x5c\x53\x69\xf1\xc1" \
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
object-file.c:79:17: note: in expansion of macro ‘EMPTY_TREE_SHA256_BIN_LITERAL’
which is understandable. Even though this is not a bug for us, since we
do not care about the NUL terminator (and are just using the literal as
a convenient format), it would be easy to accidentally create an array
that was mistakenly unterminated.
We can avoid this warning by switching the initializer to an actual
array of unsigned values. That arguably demonstrates our intent more
clearly anyway.

Git's default SHA-1 implementation is collision-detecting, which hardens
us against known SHA-1 attacks against Git objects. This makes Git
object writes safer at the expense of some speed when hashing through
the collision-detecting implementation, which is slower than
non-collision detecting alternatives.
Prepare for loading a separate "unsafe" SHA-1 implementation that can be
used for non-cryptographic purposes, like computing the checksum of
files that use the hashwrite() API.
This commit does not actually introduce any new compile-time knobs to
control which implementation is used as the unsafe SHA-1 variant, but
does add scaffolding so that the "git_hash_algo" structure has five new
function pointers which are "unsafe" variants of the five existing
hashing-related function pointers:
- git_hash_init_fn unsafe_init_fn
- git_hash_clone_fn unsafe_clone_fn
- git_hash_update_fn unsafe_update_fn
- git_hash_final_fn unsafe_final_fn
- git_hash_final_oid_fn unsafe_final_oid_fn
The following commit will introduce compile-time knobs to specify which
SHA-1 implementation is used for non-cryptographic uses.

We've had "FIXME!!! Collision check here ?" in finalize_object_file()
since aac1794132 (Improve sha1 object file writing., 2005-05-03). That
is, when we try to write a file with the same name, we assume the
on-disk contents are the same and blindly throw away the new copy.
One of the reasons we never implemented this is because the files it
moves are all named after the cryptographic hash of their contents
(either loose objects, or packs which have their hash in the name these
days). So we are unlikely to see such a collision by accident. And even
though there are weaknesses in sha1, we assume they are mitigated by our
use of sha1dc.
So while it's a theoretical concern now, it hasn't been a priority.
However, if we start using weaker hashes for pack checksums and names,
this will become a practical concern. So in preparation, let's actually
implement a byte-for-byte collision check.
The new check will cause the write of new differing content to be a
failure, rather than a silent noop, and we'll retain the temporary file
on disk. If there's no collision present, we'll clean up the temporary
file as usual after either rename()-ing or link()-ing it into place.
Note that this may cause some extra computation when the files are in
fact identical, but this should happen rarely.
Loose objects are exempt from this check, and the collision check may be
skipped by calling the _flags variant of this function with the
FOF_SKIP_COLLISION_CHECK bit set. This is done for a couple of reasons:
- We don't treat the hash of the loose object file's contents as a
checksum, since the same loose object can be stored using different
bytes on disk (e.g., when adjusting core.compression, using a
different version of zlib, etc.).
This is fundamentally different from cases where
finalize_object_file() is operating over a file which uses the hash
value as a checksum of the contents. In other words, a pair of
identical loose objects can be stored using different bytes on disk,
and that should not be treated as a collision.
- We already use the path of the loose object as its hash value /
object name, so checking for collisions at the content level doesn't
add anything.
Adding a content-level collision check would have to happen at a
higher level than in finalize_object_file(), since (avoiding race
conditions) writing an object loose which already exists in the
repository will prevent us from even reaching finalize_object_file()
via the object freshening code.
There is a collision check in index-pack via its `check_collision()`
function, but there isn't an analogous function in unpack-objects,
which just feeds the result to write_object_file().
So skipping the collision check here does not change for better or
worse the hardness of loose object writes.
As a small note related to the latter bullet point above, we must teach
the tmp-objdir routines to similarly skip the content-level collision
checks when calling migrate_one() on a loose object file, which we do by
setting the FOF_SKIP_COLLISION_CHECK bit when we are inside of a loose
object shard.

As soon as we've tried to link() a temporary object into place, we then
unlink() the tempfile immediately, whether we were successful or not.
For the success case, this is because we no longer need the old file
(it's now linked into place).
For the error case, there are two outcomes. Either we got EEXIST, in
which case we consider the collision to be a noop. Or we got a system
error, in which we case we are just cleaning up after ourselves.
Using a single line for all of these cases has some problems:
- in the error case, our unlink() may clobber errno, which we use in
the error message
- for the collision case, there's a FIXME that indicates we should do
a collision check. In preparation for implementing that, we'll need
to actually hold on to the file.
Split these three cases into their own calls to unlink_or_warn(). This
is more verbose, but lets us do the right thing in each case.

We prefer link()/unlink() to rename() for object files, with the idea
that we should prefer the data that is already on disk to what is
incoming. But we may fall back to rename() if the user has configured us
to do so, or if the filesystem seems not to support cross-directory
links. This loses the "prefer what is on disk" property.
We can mitigate this somewhat by trying to stat() the destination
filename before doing the rename. This is racy, since the object could
be created between the stat() and rename() calls. But in practice it is
expanding the definition of "what is already on disk" to be the point
that the function is called. That is enough to deal with any potential
attacks where an attacker is trying to collide hashes with what's
already in the repository.

The `odb_mkstemp()` and `odb_pack_keep()` functions are quite clearly
tied to the object store, but regardless of that they are located in
"environment.c". Move them over, which also helps to get rid of
dependencies on `the_repository` in the environment subsystem.

The `get_object_directory()` function retrieves the path to the object
directory for `the_repository`. Make it accept a `struct repository`
such that it can work on arbitrary repositories and make it part of the
repository subsystem. This reduces our reliance on `the_repository` and
clarifies scope.

When reading corrupt object headers in `read_loose_object()`, we bail
out immediately. This causes a memory leak though because we would have
already initialized the zstream in `unpack_loose_header()`, and it is
the callers responsibility to finish the zstream even on error. While
this feels weird, other callsites do it correctly already.
Fix this leak by ending the zstream even on errors. We may want to
revisit this interface in the future such that the callee handles this
for us already when there was an error.

The "fsck_error" callback is designed to report the objects-related
error messages. It accepts two parameter "oid" and "object_type" which
is not generic. In order to provide a unified callback which can report
either objects or refs, remove the objects-related parameters and add
the generic parameter "void *fsck_report".
Create a new "fsck_object_report" structure which incorporates the
removed parameters "oid" and "object_type". Then change the
corresponding references to adapt to new "fsck_error" callback.

I'm not sure exactly how to trigger the leak, but it seems fairly

Use of the `the_repository` variable is deprecated nowadays, and we
slowly but steadily convert the codebase to not use it anymore. Instead,
callers should be passing down the repository to work on via parameters.
It is hard though to prove that a given code unit does not use this
variable anymore. The most trivial case, merely demonstrating that there
is no direct use of `the_repository`, is already a bit of a pain during
code reviews as the reviewer needs to manually verify claims made by the
patch author. The bigger problem though is that we have many interfaces
that implicitly rely on `the_repository`.
Introduce a new `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` macro that allows code
units to opt into usage of `the_repository`. The intent of this macro is
to demonstrate that a certain code unit does not use this variable
anymore, and to keep it from new dependencies on it in future changes,
be it explicit or implicit
For now, the macro only guards `the_repository` itself as well as
`the_hash_algo`. There are many more known interfaces where we have an
implicit dependency on `the_repository`, but those are not guarded at
the current point in time. Over time though, we should start to add
guards as required (or even better, just remove them).
Define the macro as required in our code units. As expected, most of our
code still relies on the global variable. Nearly all of our builtins
rely on the variable as there is no way yet to pass `the_repository` to
their entry point. For now, declare the macro in "biultin.h" to keep the
required changes at least a little bit more contained.

The `oidcmp()` and `oideq()` functions only compare the prefix length as
specified by the given hash algorithm. This mandates that the object IDs
have a valid hash algorithm set, or otherwise we wouldn't be able to
figure out that prefix. As we do not have a hash algorithm in many
cases, for example when handling null object IDs, this assumption cannot
always be fulfilled. We thus have a fallback in place that instead uses
`the_repository` to derive the hash function. This implicit dependency
is hidden away from callers and can be quite surprising, especially in
contexts where there may be no repository.
In theory, we can adapt those functions to always memcmp(3P) the whole
length of their hash arrays. But there exist a couple of sites where we
populate `struct object_id`s such that only the prefix of its hash that
is actually used by the hash algorithm is populated. The remaining bytes
are left uninitialized. The fact that those bytes are uninitialized also
leads to warnings under Valgrind in some places where we copy those
bytes.
Refactor callsites where we populate object IDs to always initialize all
bytes. This also allows us to get rid of `oidcpy_with_padding()`, for
one because the input is now fully initialized, and because `oidcpy()`
will now always copy the whole hash array.

The `buf` parameter of `index_mem()` is a non-constant string. This will
break once we enable `-Wwrite-strings` because we also pass constants
from at least one callsite.
Adapt the parameter to be a constant. As we cannot free the buffer
without casting now, this also requires us to move the lifetime of the
nested buffer around.

The buffers of cached objects are never modified, but are still stored
as a non-constant pointer. This will cause a compiler warning once we
enable the `-Wwrite-strings` compiler warning as we assign an empty
constant string when initializing the static `empty_tree` cached object.
Convert the field to be constant. This requires us to shuffle around
the code a bit because we memcpy(3P) into the allocated buffer in
`pretend_object_file()`. This is easily fixed though by allocating the
buffer into a temporary variable first.

In `resolve_gitlink_ref()` we implicitly rely on `the_repository` to
look up the submodule ref store. Now that we can look up submodule ref
stores for arbitrary repositories we can improve this function to
instead accept a repository as parameter for which we want to resolve
the gitlink.
Do so and adjust callers accordingly.

Each of these were checked with
gcc -E -I. ${SOURCE_FILE} | grep ${HEADER_FILE}
to ensure that removing the direct inclusion of the header actually
resulted in that header no longer being included at all (i.e. that
no other header pulled it in transitively).
...except for a few cases where we verified that although the header
was brought in transitively, nothing from it was directly used in
that source file. These cases were:

Update check_object_signature to find the hash algorithm the exising
signature uses, and to use the same hash algorithm when recomputing it
to check the signature is valid.
