Add "const" to the "struct module_clone_data" that we pass to
clone_submodule(), which makes the ownership clear, and stops us from
clobbering the "clone_data->path".
We still need to add to the "reference" member, which is a "struct
string_list". Let's do this by having clone_submodule() create its
own, and copy the contents over, allowing us to pass it as a
separate parameter.
This new "struct string_list" still leaks memory, just as the "struct
module_clone_data" did before. let's not fix that for now, to fix that
we'll need to add some "goto cleanup" to the relevant code. That will
eventually be done in follow-up commits, this change makes it easier
to fix the memory leak.
The scope of the new "reference" variable in add_submodule() could be
narrowed to the "else" block, but as we'll eventually free it with a

Unlike chainlint.sed which "lints" a single test body at a time, thus is

test scripts with a single invocation. As such, it is akin to other bulk
"linters" run by the Makefile, such as `test-lint-shell-syntax`,
`test-lint-duplicates`, etc.
Therefore, teach `make test` and `make prove` to invoke chainlint.pl
along with the other bulk linters. Also, since the single chainlint.pl
invocation by `make test` or `make prove` has already checked all tests
in all scripts, instruct the individual test scripts not to run
chainlint.pl on themselves unnecessarily.

By automatically invoking chainlint.sed upon each test it runs,
`test_run_` in test-lib.sh ensures that broken &&-chains will be
detected early as tests are modified or new are tests created since it
is typical to run a test script manually (i.e. `./t1234-test-script.sh`)
during test development. Now that the implementation of chainlint.pl is
complete, modify test-lib.sh to invoke it automatically instead of
chainlint.sed each time a test script is run.
This change reduces the number of "linter" invocations from 26800+ (once
per test run) down to 1050+ (once per test script), however, a
subsequent change will drop the number of invocations to 1 per `make
test`, thus fully realizing the benefit of the new linter.
Note that the "magic exit code 117" &&-chain checker added by bb79af9d09
(t/test-lib: introduce --chain-lint option, 2015-03-20) which is built
into t/test-lib.sh is retained since it has near zero-cost and
(theoretically) may catch a broken &&-chain not caught by chainlint.pl.

`test_run_` in test-lib.sh "lints" the body of a test by sending it down
a `sed chainlint.sed | grep` pipeline; this happens once for each test
run by a test script. Although this pipeline may seem relatively cheap
in isolation, it can become expensive when invoked 26800+ times by `make
test`, once for each test run, despite the existence of only 16500+ test
definitions across all tests scripts.
This difference in the number of tests defined in the scripts (16500+)
and the number of tests actually run by `make test` (26800+) is
explained by the fact that some test scripts run a very large number of
small tests, all driven by a series of functions/loops which fill in the
test bodies. This means that certain test definitions are being linted
repeatedly (tens or hundreds of times) unnecessarily. To avoid such
unnecessary work, 2d86a96220 (t: avoid sed-based chain-linting in some
expensive cases, 2021-05-13) added an optimization hack which allows
individual scripts to manually suppress the unnecessary repeated linting
of the same test definition.
However, unlike chainlint.sed which checks a test body as the test is
run, chainlint.pl checks each test definition just once, no matter how
many times the test is run, thus the sort of optimization hack
introduced by 2d86a96220 is no longer needed and can be retired.
Therefore, revert 2d86a96220.

OUT=$( ((large_git 1>&3) | :) 3>&1 ) &&
* detection of problems, such as &&-chain breakage, from top-level to

context and only cover subshells one level deep due to limitations of
chainlint.sed
* address blind spots in chainlint.sed (such as not detecting a broken
&&-chain on a one-line for-loop in a subshell[1]) which chainlint.pl
correctly detects
* real-world cases which tripped up chainlint.pl during its development

The use of `|| return` (or `|| exit`) to signal failure within a loop
isn't effective when the loop is upstream of a pipe since the pipe
swallows all upstream exit codes and returns only the exit code of the
final command in the pipeline.
To work around this limitation, tests may adopt an alternative strategy
of signaling failure by emitting text which would never be emitted in
the non-failing case. For instance:
while condition
do
command1 &&
command2 ||
echo "impossible text"
done |
sort >actual &&
Such usage indicates deliberate thought about failure cases by the test
author, thus flagging them as missing `|| return` (or `|| exit`) is not
helpful. Therefore, take this case into consideration when checking for

Shell `for` and `while` loops do not terminate automatically just
because a command fails within the loop body. Instead, the loop
continues to iterate and eventually returns the exit status of the final
command of the final iteration, which may not be the command which
failed, thus it is possible for failures to go undetected. Consequently,
it is important for test authors to explicitly handle failure within the
loop body by terminating the loop manually upon failure. This can be
done by returning a non-zero exit code from within the loop body
(i.e. `|| return 1`) or exiting (i.e. `|| exit 1`) if the loop is within
a subshell, or by manually checking `$?` and taking some appropriate
action. Therefore, add logic to detect and complain about loops which
lack explicit `return` or `exit`, or `$?` check.

Now that chainlint.pl is functional, take advantage of the existing
chainlint self-tests to validate its operation. (While at it, stop
validating chainlint.sed against the self-tests since it will soon be
retired.)
Due to chainlint.sed implementation limitations leaking into the
self-test "expect" files, a few of them require minor adjustment to make
them compatible with chainlint.pl which does not share those
limitations.
First, because `sed` does not provide any sort of real recursion,
chainlint.sed only emulates recursion into subshells, and each level of
recursion leads to a multiplicative increase in complexity of the `sed`
rules. To avoid substantial complexity, chainlint.sed, therefore, only
emulates subshell recursion one level deep. Any subshell deeper than
that is passed through as-is, which means that &&-chains are not checked
in deeper subshells. chainlint.pl, on the other hand, employs a proper
recursive descent parser, thus checks subshells to any depth and
correctly flags broken &&-chains in deep subshells.
Second, due to sed's line-oriented nature, chainlint.sed, by necessity,
folds multi-line quoted strings into a single line. chainlint.pl, on the
other hand, employs a proper lexical analyzer which preserves quoted
strings as-is, including embedded newlines.
Furthermore, the output of chainlint.sed and chainlint.pl do not match
precisely in terms of whitespace. However, since the purpose of the
self-checks is to verify that the ?!AMP?! annotations are being
correctly added, minor whitespace differences are immaterial. For this
reason, rather than adjusting whitespace in all existing self-test
"expect" files to match the new linter's output, the `check-chainlint`
target ignores whitespace differences. Since `diff -w` is not POSIX,
`check-chainlint` attempts to employ `git diff -w`, and only falls back
to non-POSIX `diff -w` (and `-u`) if `git diff` is not available.

In order to check for &&-chain breakage, each time TestParser encounters
a new command, it checks whether the previous command ends with `&&`,
and -- with a couple exceptions -- signals breakage if it does not. The
first exception is that a command may validly end with `||`, which is
commonly employed as `command || return 1` at the very end of a loop
body to terminate the loop early. The second is that piping one
command's output with `|` to another command does not constitute a
&&-chain break (the exit status of the pipe is the exit status of the
final command in the pipe).
However, it turns out that there are a few additional cases found in the
wild in which it is likely safe for `&&` to be missing even when other
commands follow. For instance:
while {condition-1}
do
test {condition-2} || return 1 # or `exit 1` within a subshell
more-commands
done
while {condition-1}
do
test {condition-2} || continue
more-commands
done
Such cases indicate deliberate thought about failure modes by the test
author, thus flagging them as breaking the &&-chain is not helpful.
Therefore, take these special cases into consideration when checking for
&&-chain breakage.

Finish fleshing out chainlint.pl by adding ScriptParser, a parser which

passes it to TestParser for validation. It recognizes test definitions

it knows that commands within a test body should be chained together
with `&&`. An upcoming parser which plucks test definitions from test

Although chainlint.sed usefully identifies broken &&-chains in tests, it
has several shortcomings which include:
* only detects &&-chain breakage in subshells (one-level deep)
* does not check for broken top-level &&-chains; that task is left to
the "magic exit code 117" checker built into test-lib.sh, however,
that detection does not extend to `{...}` blocks, `$(...)`
expressions, or compound statements such as `if...fi`,
`while...done`, `case...esac`
* uses heuristics, which makes it (potentially) fallible and difficult
to tweak to handle additional real-world cases
* written in `sed` and employs advanced `sed` operators which are
probably not well-known to many programmers, thus the pool of people
who can maintain it is likely small
* manually simulates recursion into subshells which makes it much more
difficult to reason about than, say, a traditional top-down parser
* checks each test as the test is run, which can get expensive for
tests which are run repeatedly by functions or loops since their
bodies will be checked over and over (tens or hundreds of times)
unnecessarily
To address these shortcomings, begin implementing a more functional and
precise test linter which understands shell syntax and semantics rather
than employing heuristics, thus is able to recognize structural problems
with tests beyond broken &&-chains.
The new linter is written in Perl, thus should be more accessible to a
wider audience, and is structured as a traditional top-down parser which
makes it much easier to reason about, and allows it to inspect compound
statements within test bodies to any depth.
Furthermore, it can check all test definitions in the entire project in
a single invocation rather than having to be invoked once per test, and
each test definition is checked only once no matter how many times the
test is actually run.
At this stage, the new linter is just a skeleton containing boilerplate
which handles command-line options, collects and reports statistics, and
feeds its arguments -- paths of test scripts -- to a (presently)
do-nothing script parser for validation. Subsequent changes will flesh
out the functionality.

Thanks to always running `diff-index` and `diff-files` with the
`--numstat` option (the latter with `--ignore-submodules=dirty`) before
even generating any real diff to parse, the Perl version of `git add -p`
simply ignored dirty submodules and does not even offer them up for
staging.
However, the built-in variant did not use that flag because it tries to
run only one `diff` command, skipping the unneeded
`diff-index`/`diff-files` invocation of the Perl variant and therefore
only faithfully recapitulates what the Perl code does once it _does_
generate and parse the real diff.
This causes a problem when running the built-in `add -p` with
`diff-so-fancy` because that diff colorizer always inserts an empty line
before the diff header to ensure that it produces 4 lines as expected by
`git add -p` (the equivalent of the non-colorized `diff`, `index`, `---`
and `+++` lines). But `git diff-files` does not produce any `index` line
for dirty submodules.
The underlying problem is not even the discrepancy in lines, but that
`git add -p` presents diffs for dirty submodules: there is nothing that
_can_ be staged for those.
Let's fix that bug, and teach the built-in `add -p` to ignore dirty
submodules, too. This _incidentally_ also fixes the `diff-so-fancy`
problem ;-)

In
https://lore.kernel.org/git/ecf6f5be-22ca-299f-a8f1-bda38e5ca246@gmail.com,
Phillipe Blain reported that the built-in `git add -p` command fails
when asked to use [`diff-so-fancy`][diff-so-fancy] to colorize the diff.
The reason is that this tool produces colored diffs with a hunk header
that does not contain any parseable `@@ ... @@` line range information,
and therefore we cannot detect any part in that header that comes after
the line range.
As proposed by Phillip Wood, let's take that for a clear indicator that
we should show the hunk headers verbatim. This is what the Perl version
of the interactive `add` command did, too.

When parsing the colored version of a diff, the interactive `add`
command really relies on the colored version having the same number of
lines as the plain (uncolored) version. That is an invariant.
We already have code to verify correctly when the colored diff has less
lines than the plain diff. Modulo an off-by-one bug: If the last diff
line has no matching colored one, the code pretends to succeed, still.
To make matters worse, when we adjusted the test in 1e4ffc765d (t3701:
adjust difffilter test, 2020-01-14), we did not catch this because `add
-p` fails for a _different_ reason: it does not find any colored hunk
header that contains a parseable line range.
If we change the test case so that the line range _can_ be parsed, the
bug is exposed.
Let's address all of the above by
- fixing the off-by-one,
- adjusting the test case to allow `add -p` to parse the line range
- making the test case more stringent by verifying that the expected
error message is shown
Also adjust a misleading code comment about the now-fixed code.

Remove the PPC_SHA1 implementation added in a6ef3518f9 ([PATCH] PPC
assembly implementation of SHA1, 2005-04-22). When this was added
Apple consumer hardware used the PPC architecture, and the
implementation was intended to improve SHA-1 speed there.
Since it was added we've moved to using sha1collisiondetection by
default, and anyone wanting hard-rolled non-DC SHA-1 implementation
can use OpenSSL's via the OPENSSL_SHA1 knob.
The PPC_SHA1 originally originally targeted 32 bit PPC, and later the
64 bit PPC 970 (a.k.a. Apple PowerPC G5). See 926172c5e4 (block-sha1:
improve code on large-register-set machines, 2009-08-10) for a
reference about the performance on G5 (a comment in block-sha1/sha1.c
being removed here).
I can't get it to do anything but segfault on both the BE and LE POWER
machines in the GCC compile farm[1]. Anyone who's concerned about
performance on PPC these days is likely to be using the IBM POWER
processors.
There have been proposals to entirely remove non-sha1collisiondetection
implementations from the tree[2]. I think per [3] that would be a bit
overzealous. I.e. there are various set-ups git's speed is going to be
more important than the relatively implausible SHA-1 collision attack,
or where such attacks are entirely mitigated by other means (e.g. by
incoming objects being checked with DC_SHA1).
But that really doesn't apply to PPC_SHA1 in particular, which seems
to have outlived its usefulness.
As this gets rid of the only in-tree *.S assembly file we can remove
the small bits of logic from the Makefile needed to build objects
from *.S (as opposed to *.c)
The code being removed here was also throwing warnings with the
"-pedantic" flag, it could have been fixed as 544d93bc3b (block-sha1:
remove use of obsolete x86 assembly, 2022-03-10) did for block-sha1/*,
but as noted above let's remove it instead.

Since ee69e7884e (gc: use temporary file for editing crontab,
2022-08-28), we now insist that "argc == 3" (and otherwise return an
error). Coverity notes that this causes some dead code:
if (argc == 3)
fclose(from);
else
fclose(to);
as we will never trigger the else. This also causes a memory leak, since
we'll never close "to".
Now that all paths require 2 arguments, we can just reorganize the
function to check argc up front, and tweak the cleanup to do the right
thing for all cases.
While we're here, we can also notice some minor problems:
- we return a negative int via error() from what is essentially a
main() function; we should return a positive non-zero value for
error. Or better yet, we can just use usage(), which gives a better
message.
- while writing the usage message, we can note the one in the comment
was made out of date by ee69e7884e. But it also had a typo already,
calling the subcommand "cron" and not "crontab"
- we didn't check for an error from fopen(), meaning we would segfault
if the to-be-read file was missing. We can use xfopen() to catch
this.

Back when 1a9d15db25 (tempfile: a new module for handling temporary
files, 2015-08-10) added this comment, tempfile structs were held in
memory for the life of a process, and there were various guarantees
about which fields were valid in which states.
Since 422a21c6a0 (tempfile: remove deactivated list entries, 2017-09-05)
and 076aa2cbda (tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap, 2017-09-05),
the flow is quite different: objects come and go from the list, and
inactive ones are deallocated. And the previous commit removed the
"active" flag from the struct entirely.
Let's bring the comment up to date with the current code.

Our tempfile struct contains an "active" flag. Long ago, this flag was
important: tempfile structs were always allocated for the lifetime of
the program and added to a global linked list, and the active flag was
what told us whether a struct's tempfile needed to be cleaned up on
exit.
But since 422a21c6a0 (tempfile: remove deactivated list entries,
2017-09-05) and 076aa2cbda (tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap,
2017-09-05), we actually remove items from the list, and the active flag
is generally always set to true for any allocated struct. We set it to
true in all of the creation functions, and in the normal code flow it
becomes false only in deactivate_tempfile(), which then immediately
frees the struct.
So the flag isn't performing that role anymore, and in fact makes things
more confusing. Dscho noted that delete_tempfile() is a noop for an
inactive struct. Since 076aa2cbda taught it to free the struct when
deactivating, we'd leak any struct whose active flag is unset. But in
practice it's not a leak, because again, we'll free when we unset the
flag, and never see the allocated-but-inactive state.
Can we just get rid of the flag? The answer is yes, but it requires
looking at a few other spots:
1. I said above that the flag only becomes false before we deallocate,
but there's one exception: when we call remove_tempfiles() from a
signal or atexit handler, we unset the active flag as we remove
each file. This isn't important for delete_tempfile(), as nobody
would call it anymore, since we're exiting.
It does in theory provide us some protection against racily
double-removing a tempfile. If we receive a second signal while we
are already in the cleanup routines, we'll start the cleanup loop
again, and may visit the same tempfile. But this race already
exists, because calling unlink() and unsetting the active flag
aren't atomic! And it's OK in practice, because unlink() is
idempotent (barring the unlikely event that some other process
chooses our exact temp filename in that instant).
So dropping the active flag widens the race a bit, but it was
already there, and is fairly harmless in practice. If we really
care about addressing it, the right thing is probably to block
further signals while we're doing our cleanup (which we could
actually do atomically).
2. The active flag is declared as "volatile sig_atomic_t". The idea is
that it's the final bit that gets set to tell the cleanup routines
that the tempfile is ready to be used (or not used), and it's safe
to receive a signal racing with regular code which adds or removes
a tempfile from the list.
In practice, I don't think this is buying us anything. The presence
on the linked list is really what tells the cleanup routines to
look at the struct. That is already marked as "volatile". It's not
a sig_atomic_t, so it's possible that we could see a sheared write
there as an entry is added or removed. But that is true of the
current code, too! Before we can even look at the "active" flag,
we'd have to follow a link to the struct itself. If we see a
sheared write in the pointer to the struct, then we'll look at
garbage memory anyway, and there's not much we can do.
This patch removes the active flag entirely, using presence on the
global linked list as an indicator that a tempfile ought to be cleaned
up. We are already careful to add to the list as the final step in
activating. On deactivation, we'll make sure to remove from the list as
the first step, before freeing any fields. The use of the volatile
keyword should mean that those things happen in the expected order.
