51054177b3 index-pack: detect local corruption in collision check
When we notice that we have a local copy of an incoming
object, we compare the two objects to make sure we haven't
found a collision. Before we get to the actual object
bytes, though, we compare the type and size from
sha1_object_info().

If our local object is corrupted, then the type will be
OBJ_BAD, which obviously will not match the incoming type,
and we'll report "SHA1 COLLISION FOUND" (with capital
letters and everything). This is confusing, as the problem
is not a collision but rather local corruption. We should
report that instead (just like we do if reading the rest of
the object content fails a few lines later).

Note that we _could_ just ignore the error and mark it as a
non-collision. That would let you "git fetch" to replace a
corrupted object. But it's not a very reliable method for
repairing a repository. The earlier want/have negotiation
tries to get the other side to omit objects we already have,
and it would not realize that we are "missing" this
corrupted object. So we're better off complaining loudly
when we see corruption, and letting the user take more
drastic measures to repair (like making a full clone
elsewhere and copying the pack into place).

Note that the test sets transfer.unpackLimit in the
receiving repository so that we use index-pack (which is
what does the collision check). Normally for such a small
push we'd use unpack-objects, which would simply try to
write the loose object, and discard the new one when we see
that there's already an old one.

5b1ef2cef4 replace unchecked snprintf calls with heap buffers
We'd prefer to avoid unchecked snprintf calls because
truncation can lead to unexpected results.

These are all cases where truncation shouldn't ever happen,
because the input to snprintf is fixed in size. That makes
them candidates for xsnprintf(), but it's simpler still to
just use the heap, and then nobody has to wonder if "100" is
big enough.

We'll use xstrfmt() where possible, and a strbuf when we need
the resulting size or to reuse the same buffer in a loop.

594fa9998c odb_mkstemp: write filename into strbuf
The odb_mkstemp() function expects the caller to provide a
fixed buffer to write the resulting tempfile name into. But
it creates the template using snprintf without checking the
return value. This means we could silently truncate the
filename.

In practice, it's unlikely that the truncation would end in
the template-pattern that mkstemp needs to open the file. So
we'd probably end up failing either way, unless the path was
specially crafted.

The simplest fix would be to notice the truncation and die.
However, we can observe that most callers immediately
xstrdup() the result anyway. So instead, let's switch to
using a strbuf, which is easier for them (and isn't a big
deal for the other 2 callers, who can just strbuf_release
when they're done with it).

Note that many of the callers used static buffers, but this
was purely to avoid putting a large buffer on the stack. We
never passed the static buffers out of the function, so
there's no complicated memory handling we need to change.

892e723afd do not check odb_mkstemp return value for errors
The odb_mkstemp function does not return an error; it dies
on failure instead. But many of its callers compare the
resulting descriptor against -1 and die themselves.

Mostly this is just pointless, but it does raise a question
when looking at the callers: if they show the results of the
"template" buffer after a failure, what's in it? The answer
is: it doesn't matter, because it cannot happen.

So let's make that clear by removing the bogus error checks.
In bitmap_writer_finish(), we can drop the error-handling
code entirely. In the other two cases, it's shared with the
open() in another code path; we can just move the
error-check next to that open() call.

And while we're at it, let's flesh out the function's
docstring a bit to make the error behavior clear.

f20754802a index-pack: make pointer-alias fallbacks safer
The final() function accepts a NULL value for certain
parameters, and falls back to writing into a reusable "name"
buffer, and then either:

  1. For "keep_name", requiring all uses to do "keep_name ?
     keep_name : name.buf". This is awkward, and it's easy
     to accidentally look at the maybe-NULL keep_name.

  2. For "final_index_name" and "final_pack_name", aliasing
     those pointers to the "name" buffer. This is easier to
     use, but the aliased pointers become invalid after the
     buffer is reused (this isn't a bug now, but it's a
     potential pitfall).

One way to make this safer would be to introduce an extra
pointer to do the aliasing, and have its lifetime match the
validity of the "name" buffer. But it's still easy to
accidentally use the wrong name (i.e., to use
"final_pack_name" instead of the aliased pointer).

Instead, let's use three separate buffers that will remain
valid through the function. That makes it safe to alias the
pointers and use them consistently. The extra allocations
shouldn't matter, as this function is not performance
sensitive.

ba47a3088f replace snprintf with odb_pack_name()
In several places we write the name of the pack filename
into a fixed-size buffer using snprintf(), but do not check
the return value.  As a result, a very long object directory
could cause us to quietly truncate the pack filename
(potentially leading to a corrupted repository, as a newly
written packfile could be missing its .pack extension).

We can use odb_pack_name() to do this with a strbuf (and
shorten the code, as well).

eaeefc3276 odb_pack_keep(): stop generating keepfile name
The odb_pack_keep() function generates the name of a .keep
file and opens it. This has two problems:

  1. It requires a fixed-size buffer to create the filename
     and doesn't notice when the result is truncated.

  2. Of the two callers, one sometimes wants to open a
     filename it already has, which makes things awkward (it
     has to do so manually, and skips the leading-directory
     creation).

Instead, let's have odb_pack_keep() just open the file.
Generating the name isn't hard, and a future patch will
switch callers over to odb_pack_name() anyway.

29401e1575 index-pack: skip collision check when not in repository
You can run "git index-pack path/to/foo.pack" outside of a
repository to generate an index file, or just to verify the
contents. There's no point in doing a collision check, since
we obviously do not have any objects to collide with.

The current code will blindly look in .git/objects based on
the result of setup_git_env(). That effectively gives us the
right answer (since we won't find any objects), but it's a
waste of time, and it conflicts with our desire to
eventually get rid of the "fallback to .git" behavior of
setup_git_env().

filesystem outside of any repository. However, --stdin mode

83558686ce receive-pack: send keepalives during quiet periods
After a client has sent us the complete pack, we may spend
some time processing the data and running hooks. If the
client asked us to be quiet, receive-pack won't send any
progress data during the index-pack or connectivity-check
steps. And hooks may or may not produce their own progress
output. In these cases, the network connection is totally
silent from both ends.

Git itself doesn't care about this (it will wait forever),
but other parts of the system (e.g., firewalls,
load-balancers, etc) might hang up the connection. So we'd
like to send some sort of keepalive to let the network and
the client side know that we're still alive and processing.

We can use the same trick we did in 05e9515 (upload-pack:
send keepalive packets during pack computation, 2013-09-08).
Namely, we will send an empty sideband data packet every `N`
seconds that we do not relay any stderr data over the
sideband channel. As with 05e9515, this means that we won't
bother sending keepalives when there's actual progress data,
but will kick in when it has been disabled (or if there is a
lull in the progress data).

The concept is simple, but the details are subtle enough
that they need discussing here.

Before the client sends us the pack, we don't want to do any
keepalives. We'll have sent our ref advertisement, and we're
waiting for them to send us the pack (and tell us that they
support sidebands at all).

While we're receiving the pack from the client (or waiting
for it to start), there's no need for keepalives; it's up to
them to keep the connection active by sending data.
Moreover, it would be wrong for us to do so. When we are the
server in the smart-http protocol, we must treat our
connection as half-duplex. So any keepalives we send while
receiving the pack would potentially be buffered by the
webserver. Not only does this make them useless (since they
would not be delivered in a timely manner), but it could
actually cause a deadlock if we fill up the buffer with
keepalives. (It wouldn't be wrong to send keepalives in this
phase for a full-duplex connection like ssh; it's simply
pointless, as it is the client's responsibility to speak).

As soon as we've gotten all of the pack data, then the
client is waiting for us to speak, and we should start
keepalives immediately. From here until the end of the
connection, we send one any time we are not otherwise
sending data.

But there's a catch. Receive-pack doesn't know the moment
we've gotten all the data. It passes the descriptor to
index-pack, who reads all of the data, and then starts
resolving the deltas. We have to communicate that back.

To make this work, we instruct the sideband muxer to enable
keepalives in three phases:

  1. In the beginning, not at all.

  2. While reading from index-pack, wait for a signal
     indicating end-of-input, and then start them.

  3. Afterwards, always.

The signal from index-pack in phase 2 has to come over the
stderr channel which the muxer is reading. We can't use an
extra pipe because the portable run-command interface only
gives us stderr and stdout.

Stdout is already used to pass the .keep filename back to
receive-pack. We could also send a signal there, but then we
would find out about it in the main thread. And the
keepalive needs to be done by the async muxer thread (since
it's the one writing sideband data back to the client). And
we can't reliably signal the async thread from the main
thread, because the async code sometimes uses threads and
sometimes uses forked processes.

Therefore the signal must come over the stderr channel,
where it may be interspersed with other random
human-readable messages from index-pack. This patch makes
the signal a single NUL byte.  This is easy to parse, should
not appear in any normal stderr output, and we don't have to
worry about any timing issues (like seeing half the signal
bytes in one read(), and half in a subsequent one).

This is a bit ugly, but it's simple to code and should work
reliably.

Another option would be to stop using an async thread for
muxing entirely, and just poll() both stderr and stdout of
index-pack from the main thread. This would work for
index-pack (because we aren't doing anything useful in the
main thread while it runs anyway). But it would make the
connectivity check and the hook muxers much more
complicated, as they need to simultaneously feed the
sub-programs while reading their stderr.

The index-pack phase is the only one that needs this
signaling, so it could simply behave differently than the
other two. That would mean having two separate
implementations of copy_to_sideband (and the keepalive
code), though. And it still doesn't get rid of the
signaling; it just means we can write a nicer message like
"END_OF_INPUT" or something on stdout, since we don't have
to worry about separating it from the stderr cruft.

One final note: this signaling trick is only done with
index-pack, not with unpack-objects. There's no point in
doing it for the latter, because by definition it only kicks
in for a small number of objects, where keepalives are not
as useful (and this conveniently lets us avoid duplicating
the implementation).

e376f17fd1 index-pack: add flag for showing delta-resolution progress
The index-pack command has two progress meters: one for
"receiving objects", and one for "resolving deltas". You get
neither by default, or both with "-v".

But for a push through receive-pack, we would want only the
"resolving deltas" phase, _not_ the "receiving objects"
progress. There are two reasons for this.

One is simply that existing clients are already printing
"writing objects" progress at the same time.  Arguably
"receiving" from the far end is more useful, because it
tells you what has actually gotten there, as opposed to what
might be stuck in a buffer somewhere between the client and
server. But that would require a protocol extension to tell
clients not to print their progress. Possible, but
complexity for little gain.

The second reason is much more important. In a full-duplex
connection like git-over-ssh, we can print progress while
the pack is incoming, and it will immediately get to the
client. But for a half-duplex connection like git-over-http,
we should not say anything until we have received the full
request.  Anything we write is subject to being stuck in a
buffer by the webserver.  Worse, we can end up in a deadlock
if that buffer fills up.

So our best bet is to avoid writing anything that isn't a
small fixed size until we've received the full pack.

47fe3f6ef0 nth_packed_object_offset: bounds-check extended offset
If a pack .idx file has a corrupted offset for an object, we
may try to access an offset in the .idx or .pack file that
is larger than the file's size.  For the .pack case, we have
use_pack() to protect us, which realizes the access is out
of bounds. But if the corrupted value asks us to look in the
.idx file's secondary 64-bit offset table, we blindly add it
to the mmap'd index data and access arbitrary memory.

We can fix this with a simple bounds-check compared to the
size we found when we opened the .idx file.

Note that there's similar code in index-pack that is
triggered only during "index-pack --verify". To support
both, we pull the bounds-check into a separate function,
which dies when it sees a corrupted file.

It would be nice if we could return an error, so that the
pack code could try to find a good copy of the object
elsewhere. Currently nth_packed_object_offset doesn't have
any way to return an error, but it could probably use "0" as
a sentinel value (since no object can start there). This is
the minimal fix, and we can improve the resilience later on
top.

b32fa95fd8 convert trivial cases to ALLOC_ARRAY
Each of these cases can be converted to use ALLOC_ARRAY or
REALLOC_ARRAY, which has two advantages:

  1. It automatically checks the array-size multiplication
     for overflow.

  2. It always uses sizeof(*array) for the element-size,
     so that it can never go out of sync with the declared
     type of the array.

ef1286d3c0 use xsnprintf for generating git object headers
We generally use 32-byte buffers to format git's "type size"
header fields. These should not generally overflow unless
you can produce some truly gigantic objects (and our types
come from our internal array of constant strings). But it is
a good idea to use xsnprintf to make sure this is the case.

Note that we slightly modify the interface to
write_sha1_file_prepare, which nows uses "hdrlen" as an "in"
parameter as well as an "out" (on the way in it stores the
allocated size of the header, and on the way out it returns
the ultimate size of the header).

without doing anything about it.  Let's do so.

The purpose of this function was not to move but to finalize.  The
detail of the primarily implementation of finalizing was to link the
temporary file to its final name and then to unlink, which wasn't
even "moving".  The alternative implementation did "move" by calling
rename(2), which is a fun tangent.

781d93067d index-pack: fix allocation of sorted_by_pos array
When c6458e60 (index-pack: kill union delta_base to save memory,
2015-04-18) attempted to reduce the memory footprint of index-pack,
one of the key thing it did was to keep track of ref-deltas and
ofs-deltas separately.

In fix_unresolved_deltas(), however it forgot that it now wants to
look only at ref deltas in one place.  The code allocated an array
for nr_unresolved, which is sum of number of ref- and ofs-deltas
minus nr_resolved, which may be larger or smaller than the number
ref-deltas.  Depending on nr_resolved, this was either under or over
allocating.

Also, the old code before this change had to use 'i' and 'n' because
some of the things we see in the (old) deltas[] array we scanned
with 'i' would not make it into the sorted_by_pos[] array in the old
world order, but now because you have only ref delta in a separate
ref_deltas[] array, they increment lock&step.  We no longer need
separate variables.  And most importantly, we shouldn't pass the
nr_unresolved parameter, as this number does not play a role in the
working of this helper function.

5d477a334a fsck (receive-pack): allow demoting errors to warnings
For example, missing emails in commit and tag objects can be demoted to
mere warnings with

	git config receive.fsck.missingemail=warn

The value is actually a comma-separated list.

In case that the same key is listed in multiple receive.fsck.<msg-id>
lines in the config, the latter configuration wins (this can happen for
example when both $HOME/.gitconfig and .git/config contain message type
settings).

As git receive-pack does not actually perform the checks, it hands off
the setting to index-pack or unpack-objects in the form of an optional
argument to the --strict option.

0eeb077be7 index-pack: avoid excessive re-reading of pack directory
Since 45e8a74 (has_sha1_file: re-check pack directory before
giving up, 2013-08-30), we spend extra effort for
has_sha1_file to give the right answer when somebody else is
repacking. Usually this effort does not matter, because
after finding that the object does not exist, the next step
is usually to die().

However, some code paths make a large number of
has_sha1_file checks which are _not_ expected to return 1.
The collision test in index-pack.c is such a case. On a
local system, this can cause a performance slowdown of
around 5%. But on a system with high-latency system calls
(like NFS), it can be much worse.

This patch introduces a "quick" flag to has_sha1_file which
callers can use when they would prefer high performance at
the cost of false negatives during repacks. There may be
other code paths that can use this, but the index-pack one
is the most obviously critical, so we'll start with
switching that one.

f0e7f11d05 index-pack: fix truncation of off_t in comparison
Commit c6458e6 (index-pack: kill union delta_base to save
memory, 2015-04-18) refactored the comparison functions used
in sorting and binary searching our delta list. The
resulting code does something like:

  int cmp_offsets(off_t a, off_t b)
  {
	  return a - b;
  }

This works most of the time, but produces nonsensical
results when the difference between the two offsets is
larger than what can be stored in an "int". This can lead to
unresolved deltas if the packsize is larger than 2G (even on
64-bit systems, an int is still typically 32 bits):

  $ git clone git://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev

  fatal: pack has 3124 unresolved deltas
  fatal: index-pack failed

We can fix it by doing direct comparisons between the
offsets and returning constants; the callers only care about
the sign of the comparison, not the magnitude.

c6458e60ed index-pack: kill union delta_base to save memory
Once we know the number of objects in the input pack, we allocate an
array of nr_objects of struct delta_entry. On x86-64, this struct is
32 bytes long. The union delta_base, which is part of struct
delta_entry, provides enough space to store either ofs-delta (8 bytes)
or ref-delta (20 bytes).

Because ofs-delta encoding is more efficient space-wise and more
performant at runtime than ref-delta encoding, Git packers try to use
ofs-delta whenever possible, and it is expected that objects encoded
as ref-delta are minority.

In the best clone case where no ref-delta object is present, we waste
(20-8) * nr_objects bytes because of this union. That's about 38MB out
of 100MB for deltas[] with 3.4M objects, or 38%. deltas[] would be
around 62MB without the waste.

This patch attempts to eliminate that. deltas[] array is split into
two: one for ofs-delta and one for ref-delta. Many functions are also
duplicated because of this split. With this patch, ofs_deltas[] array
takes 51MB. ref_deltas[] should remain unallocated in clone case (0
bytes). This array grows as we see ref-delta. We save about half in
this case, or 25% of total bookkeeping.

The saving is more than the calculation above because some padding in
the old delta_entry struct is removed. ofs_delta_entry is 16 bytes,
including the 4 bytes padding. That's 13MB for padding, but packing
the struct could break platforms that do not support unaligned
access. If someone on 32-bit is really low on memory and only deals
with packs smaller than 2G, using 32-bit off_t would eliminate the
padding and save 27MB on top.

A note about ofs_deltas allocation. We could use ref_deltas memory
allocation strategy for ofs_deltas. But that probably just adds more
overhead on top. ofs-deltas are generally the majority (1/2 to 2/3) in
any pack. Incremental realloc may lead to too many memcpy. And if we
preallocate, say 1/2 or 2/3 of nr_objects initially, the growth rate
of ALLOC_GROW() could make this array larger than nr_objects, wasting
more memory.

417305764a index-pack: reduce object_entry size to save memory
For each object in the input pack, we need one struct object_entry. On
x86-64, this struct is 64 bytes long. Although:

 - The 8 bytes for delta_depth and base_object_no are only useful when
   show_stat is set. And it's never set unless someone is debugging.

 - The three fields hdr_size, type and real_type take 4 bytes each
   even though they never use more than 4 bits.

By moving delta_depth and base_object_no out of struct object_entry
and make the other 3 fields one byte long instead of 4, we shrink 25%
of this struct.

On a 3.4M object repo (*) that's about 53MB. The saving is less
impressive compared to index-pack memory use for basic bookkeeping (**),
about 16%.

(*) linux-2.6.git already has 4M objects as of v3.19-rc7 so this is
not an unrealistic number of objects that we have to deal with.

(**)  3.4M * (sizeof(object_entry) + sizeof(delta_entry)) = 311MB

90a398bbd7 fsck_object(): allow passing object data separately from the object itself
When fsck'ing an incoming pack, we need to fsck objects that cannot be
read via read_sha1_file() because they are not local yet (and might even
be rejected if transfer.fsckobjects is set to 'true').

For commits, there is a hack in place: we basically cache commit
objects' buffers anyway, but the same is not true, say, for tag objects.

By refactoring fsck_object() to take the object buffer and size as
optional arguments -- optional, because we still fall back to the
previous method to look at the cached commit objects if the caller
passes NULL -- we prepare the machinery for the upcoming handling of tag
objects.

The assumption that such buffers are inherently NUL terminated is now
wrong, of course, hence we pass the size of the buffer so that we can
add a sanity check later, to prevent running past the end of the buffer.

ab791dd138 index-pack: fix race condition with duplicate bases
When we are resolving deltas in an indexed pack, we do it by
first selecting a potential base (either one stored in full
in the pack, or one created by resolving another delta), and
then resolving any deltas that use that base.  When we
resolve a particular delta, we flip its "real_type" field
from OBJ_{REF,OFS}_DELTA to whatever the real type is.

We assume that traversing the objects this way will visit
each delta only once. This is correct for most packs; we
visit the delta only when we process its base, and each
object (and thus each base) appears only once. However, if a
base object appears multiple times in the pack, we will try
to resolve any deltas based on it once for each instance.

We can detect this case by noting that a delta we are about
to resolve has already had its real_type field flipped, and
we already do so with an assert().  However, if multiple
threads are in use, we may race with another thread on
comparing and flipping the field. We need to synchronize the
access.

The right mechanism for doing this is a compare-and-swap (we
atomically "claim" the delta for our own and find out
whether our claim was successful). We can implement this
in C by using a pthread mutex to protect the operation. This
is not the fastest way of doing a compare-and-swap; many
processors provide instructions for this, and gcc and other
compilers provide builtins to access them. However, some
experiments showed that lock contention does not cause a
significant slowdown here. Adding c-a-s support for many
compilers would increase the maintenance burden (and we
would still end up including the pthread version as a
fallback).

Note that we only need to touch the OBJ_REF_DELTA codepath
here. An OBJ_OFS_DELTA object points to its base using an
offset, and therefore has only one base, even if another
copy of that base object appears in the pack (we do still
touch it briefly because the setting of real_type is
factored out of resolve_data).

2975c770ca replace has_extension with ends_with
These two are almost the same function, with the exception
that has_extension only matches if there is content before
the suffix. So ends_with(".exe", ".exe") is true, but
has_extension would not be.

This distinction does not matter to any of the callers,
though, and we can just replace uses of has_extension with
ends_with. We prefer the "ends_with" name because it is more
generic, and there is nothing about the function that
requires it to be used for file extensions.

8597ea3afe commit: record buffer length in cache
Most callsites which use the commit buffer try to use the
cached version attached to the commit, rather than
re-reading from disk. Unfortunately, that interface provides
only a pointer to the NUL-terminated buffer, with no
indication of the original length.

For the most part, this doesn't matter. People do not put
NULs in their commit messages, and the log code is happy to
treat it all as a NUL-terminated string. However, some code
paths do care. For example, when checking signatures, we
want to be very careful that we verify all the bytes to
avoid malicious trickery.

This patch just adds an optional "size" out-pointer to
get_commit_buffer and friends. The existing callers all pass
NULL (there did not seem to be any obvious sites where we
could avoid an immediate strlen() call, though perhaps with
some further refactoring we could).

0fb370da9c provide a helper to free commit buffer
This converts two lines into one at each caller. But more
importantly, it abstracts the concept of freeing the buffer,
which will make it easier to change later.

Note that we also need to provide a "detach" mechanism for a
tricky case in index-pack. We are passed a buffer for the
object generated by processing the incoming pack. If we are
not using --strict, we just calculate the sha1 on that
buffer and return, leaving the caller to free it.  But if we
are using --strict, we actually attach that buffer to an
object, pass the object to the fsck functions, and then
detach the buffer from the object again (so that the caller
can free it as usual).  In this case, we don't want to free
the buffer ourselves, but just make sure it is no longer
associated with the commit.

Note that we are making the assumption here that the
attach/detach process does not impact the buffer at all
(e.g., it is never reallocated or modified). That holds true
now, and we have no plans to change that. However, as we
abstract the commit_buffer code, this dependency becomes
less obvious. So when we detach, let's also make sure that
we get back the same buffer that we gave to the
commit_buffer code.

Duy raised a good point that we may need to do the same for the
normal writeout codepath, not just the "opportunistic" update
codepath.  While that is true, nobody sane would be running two
simultaneous operations that are clearly write-oriented competing
with each other against the same index file.  So in that sense that

77583e7739 index-pack: distinguish missing objects from type errors
When we fetch a pack that does not contain an object we
expected to receive, we get an error like:

  $ git init --bare tmp.git && cd tmp.git
  $ git fetch ../parent.git
  [...]
  error: Could not read 964953ec7bcc0245cb1d0db4095455edd21a2f2e
  fatal: Failed to traverse parents of commit b8247b40caf6704fe52736cdece6d6aae87471aa
  error: ../parent.git did not send all necessary objects

This comes from the check_everything_connected rev-list. If
we try cloning the same repo (rather than a fetch), we end
up using index-pack's --check-self-contained-and-connected
option instead, which produces output like:

  $ git clone --no-local --bare parent.git tmp.git
  [...]
  fatal: object of unexpected type
  fatal: index-pack failed

Not only is the sha1 missing, but it's a misleading message.
There's no type problem, but rather a missing object
problem; we don't notice the difference because we simply
compare OBJ_BAD != OBJ_BLOB.  Let's provide a different
message for this case:

  $ git clone --no-local --bare parent.git tmp.git
  fatal: did not receive expected object 6b00a8c61ed379d5f925a72c1987c9c52129d364
  fatal: index-pack failed

While we're at it, let's also improve a true type mismatch
error to look like

  fatal: object 6b00a8c61ed379d5f925a72c1987c9c52129d364: expected type blob, got tree

39539495ac index-pack: work around thread-unsafe pread()
Multi-threaing of index-pack was disabled with c0f8654
(index-pack: Disable threading on cygwin - 2012-06-26), because
pread() implementations for Cygwin and MSYS were not thread
safe.  Recent Cygwin does offer usable pread() and we enabled
multi-threading with 103d530f (Cygwin 1.7 has thread-safe pread,
2013-07-19).

Work around this problem on platforms with a thread-unsafe
pread() emulation by opening one file handle per thread; it
would prevent parallel pread() on different file handles from
stepping on each other.

Also remove NO_THREAD_SAFE_PREAD that was introduced in c0f8654
because it's no longer used anywhere.

This workaround is unconditional, even for platforms with
thread-safe pread() because the overhead is small (a couple file
handles more) and not worth fragmenting the code.

Jeff King
6e454b9a31 clear parsed flag when we free tree buffers
Many code paths will free a tree object's buffer and set it
to NULL after finishing with it in order to keep memory
usage down during a traversal. However, out of 8 sites that
do this, only one actually unsets the "parsed" flag back.
Those sites that don't are setting a trap for later users of
the tree object; even after calling parse_tree, the buffer
will remain NULL, causing potential segfaults.

It is not known whether this is triggerable in the current
code. Most commands do not do an in-memory traversal
followed by actually using the objects again. However, it
does not hurt to be safe for future callers.

In most cases, we can abstract this out to a
"free_tree_buffer" helper. However, there are two
exceptions:

  1. The fsck code relies on the parsed flag to know that we
     were able to parse the object at one point. We can
     switch this to using a flag in the "flags" field.

  2. The index-pack code sets the buffer to NULL but does
     not free it (it is freed by a caller). We should still
     unset the parsed flag here, but we cannot use our
     helper, as we do not want to free the buffer.

c6807a40dc clone: open a shortcut for connectivity check
In order to make sure the cloned repository is good, we run "rev-list
--objects --not --all $new_refs" on the repository. This is expensive
on large repositories. This patch attempts to mitigate the impact in
this special case.

In the "good" clone case, we only have one pack. If all of the
following are met, we can be sure that all objects reachable from the
new refs exist, which is the intention of running "rev-list ...":

 - all refs point to an object in the pack
 - there are no dangling pointers in any object in the pack
 - no objects in the pack point to objects outside the pack

The second and third checks can be done with the help of index-pack as
a slight variation of --strict check (which introduces a new condition
for the shortcut: pack transfer must be used and the number of objects
large enough to call index-pack). The first is checked in
check_everything_connected after we get an "ok" from index-pack.

"index-pack + new checks" is still faster than the current "index-pack
+ rev-list", which is the whole point of this patch. If any of the
conditions fail, we fall back to the good old but expensive "rev-list
..". In that case it's even more expensive because we have to pay for
the new checks in index-pack. But that should only happen when the
other side is either buggy or malicious.

This shortcut is not applied to shallow clones, partly because shallow
clones should have no more objects than a usual fetch and the cost of
rev-list is acceptable, partly to avoid dealing with corner cases when
grafting is involved.

This shortcut does not apply to unpack-objects code path either
because the number of objects must be small in order to trigger that
code path.

Commit 38a4556 (index-pack: start learning to emulate
"verify-pack -v", 2011-06-03) added a "delta_depth" counter
to each "struct object_entry". Initially, all object entries
have their depth set to 0; in resolve_delta, we then set the
depth of each delta to "base + 1". Base entries never have
their depth touched, and remain at 0.

To ensure that all depths start at 0, that commit changed
calls to xmalloc the object_entry list into calls to
xcalloc.  However, it forgot that we grow the list with
xrealloc later. These extra entries are used when we add an
object from elsewhere to complete a thin pack. If we add a
non-delta object, its depth value will just be uninitialized
heap data.

This patch fixes it by zero-initializing entries we add to
the objects list via the xrealloc.

8f82aad4e7 index-pack: guard nr_resolved_deltas reads by lock
The threaded parts of index-pack increment the number of resolved
deltas in nr_resolved_deltas guarded by counter_mutex.  However, the
per-thread outer loop accessed nr_resolved_deltas without any locks.

This is not wrong as such, since it doesn't matter all that much
whether we get an outdated value.  However, unless someone proves that
this one lock makes all the performance difference, it would be much
cleaner to guard _all_ accesses to the variable with the lock.

The only such use is display_progress() in the threaded section (all
others are in the conclude_pack() callchain outside the threaded
part).  To make it obvious that it cannot deadlock, move it out of
work_mutex.

Another variable that will not be updated is delta_depth in "struct

"if (show_stat)" makes it clearer.

The local variable "stat" is renamed to "show_stat" after moving to

f8b090386b index-pack: loop while inflating objects in unpack_data
When the unpack_data function is given a consume() callback,
it unpacks only 64K of the input at a time, feeding it to
git_inflate along with a 64K output buffer.  However,
because we are inflating, there is a good chance that the
output buffer will fill before consuming all of the input.
In this case, we need to loop on git_inflate until we have
fed the whole input buffer, feeding each chunk of output to
the consume buffer.

The current code does not do this, and as a result, will
fail the loop condition and trigger a fatal "serious inflate
inconsistency" error in this case.

While we're rearranging the loop, let's get rid of the
extra last_out pointer. It is meant to point to the
beginning of the buffer that we feed to git_inflate, but in
practice this is always the beginning of our same 64K
buffer, because:

  1. At the beginning of the loop, we are feeding the
     buffer.

  2. At the end of the loop, if we are using a consume()
     function, we reset git_inflate's pointer to the
     beginning of the buffer.  If we are not using a
     consume() function, then we do not care about the value
     of last_out at all.
