The tempfile (hence its user lockfile) API lets the caller to open
a file descriptor to a temporary file, write into it and then
finalize it by first closing the filehandle and then either
removing or renaming the temporary file. When the process spawns a
subprocess after obtaining the file descriptor, and if the
subprocess has not exited when the attempt to remove or rename is
made, the last step fails on Windows, because the subprocess has
the file descriptor still open. Open tempfile with O_CLOEXEC flag
to avoid this (on Windows, this is mapped to O_NOINHERIT).
* bw/mingw-avoid-inheriting-fd-to-lockfile:
mingw: ensure temporary file handles are not inherited by child processes
t6026-merge-attr: child processes must not inherit index.lock handles
When the index is locked and child processes inherit the handle to
said lock and the parent process wants to remove the lock before the
child process exits, on Windows there is a problem: it won't work
because files cannot be deleted if a process holds a handle on them.
The symptom:
Rename from 'xxx/.git/index.lock' to 'xxx/.git/index' failed.
Should I try again? (y/n)
Spawning child processes with bInheritHandles==FALSE would not work
because no file handles would be inherited, not even the hStdXxx
handles in STARTUPINFO (stdin/stdout/stderr).
Opening every file with O_NOINHERIT does not work, either, as e.g.
git-upload-pack expects inherited file handles.
This leaves us with the only way out: creating temp files with the
O_NOINHERIT flag. This flag is Windows-specific, however. For our
purposes, it is equivalent to O_CLOEXEC (which does not exist on
Windows), so let's just open temporary files with the O_CLOEXEC flag and
map that flag to O_NOINHERIT on Windows.
As Eric Wong pointed out, we need to be careful to handle the case where
the Linux headers used to compile Git support O_CLOEXEC but the Linux
kernel used to run Git does not: it returns an EINVAL.
This fixes the test that we just introduced to demonstrate the problem.

There are certain startup tasks that we expect every git
process to do. In some cases this is just to improve the
quality of the program (e.g., setting up gettext()). In
others it is a requirement for using certain functions in
libgit.a (e.g., system_path() expects that you have called
git_extract_argv0_path()).
Most commands are builtins and are covered by the git.c
version of main(). However, there are still a few external
commands that use their own main(). Each of these has to
remember to include the correct startup sequence, and we are
not always consistent.
Rather than just fix the inconsistencies, let's make this
harder to get wrong by providing a common main() that can
run this standard startup.
We basically have two options to do this:
- the compat/mingw.h file already does something like this by
adding a #define that replaces the definition of main with a
wrapper that calls mingw_startup().
The upside is that the code in each program doesn't need
to be changed at all; it's rewritten on the fly by the
preprocessor.
The downside is that it may make debugging of the startup
sequence a bit more confusing, as the preprocessor is
quietly inserting new code.
- the builtin functions are all of the form cmd_foo(),
and git.c's main() calls them.
This is much more explicit, which may make things more
obvious to somebody reading the code. It's also more
flexible (because of course we have to figure out _which_
cmd_foo() to call).
The downside is that each of the builtins must define
cmd_foo(), instead of just main().
This patch chooses the latter option, preferring the more
explicit approach, even though it is more invasive. We
introduce a new file common-main.c, with the "real" main. It
expects to call cmd_main() from whatever other objects it is
linked against.
We link common-main.o against anything that links against
libgit.a, since we know that such programs will need to do
this setup. Note that common-main.o can't actually go inside
libgit.a, as the linker would not pick up its main()
function automatically (it has no callers).
The rest of the patch is just adjusting all of the various
external programs (mostly in t/helper) to use cmd_main().
I've provided a global declaration for cmd_main(), which
means that all of the programs also need to match its
signature. In particular, many functions need to switch to
"const char **" instead of "char **" for argv. This effect
ripples out to a few other variables and functions, as well.
This makes the patch even more invasive, but the end result
is much better. We should be treating argv strings as const
anyway, and now all programs conform to the same signature
(which also matches the way builtins are defined).

- check and die on overflow
- return the result so that computations can be done in

These functions are a lot uglier to use than normal
arithmetic operators (you have to do "st_add(foo, bar)"

Allocating a struct with a flex array is pretty simple in
practice: you over-allocate the struct, then copy some data
into the over-allocation. But it can be a slight pain to
make sure you're allocating and copying the right amounts.
This patch adds a few helpers to turn simple cases of
flex-array struct allocation into a one-liner that properly
checks for overflow. See the embedded documentation for
details.
Ideally we could provide a more flexible version that could
handle multiple strings, like:
FLEX_ALLOC_FMT(ref, name, "%s%s", prefix, name);
But we have to implement this as a macro (because of the
offset calculation of the flex member), which means we would
need all compilers to support variadic macros.

REALLOC_ARRAY inherently involves a multiplication which can
overflow size_t, resulting in a much smaller buffer than we
think we've allocated. We can easily harden it by using
st_mult() to check for overflow. Likewise, we can add
ALLOC_ARRAY to do the same thing for xmalloc calls.
xcalloc() should already be fine, because it takes the two
factors separately, assuming the system calloc actually
checks for overflow. However, before we even hit the system
calloc(), we do our memory_limit_check, which involves a
multiplication. Let's check for overflow ourselves so that
this limit cannot be bypassed.

In practice this isn't a big deal, because the buffer we
pass in already contains "$GIT_DIR/config", and we append
only a few extra bytes to it. But we can easily do the right
thing just by calling git_path_buf ourselves. Technically
this results in a different pathname (before we appended our
utf8 characters to the "config" path, and now they get their
own files in $GIT_DIR), but that should not matter for our

There are a number of places in the code where we call
sprintf(), with the assumption that the output will fit into
the buffer. In many cases this is true (e.g., formatting a
number into a large buffer), but it is hard to tell
immediately from looking at the code. It would be nice if we
had some run-time check to make sure that our assumption is
correct (and to communicate to readers of the code that we
are not blindly calling sprintf, but have actually thought
about this case).
This patch introduces xsnprintf, which behaves just like
snprintf, except that it dies whenever the output is
truncated. This acts as a sort of assert() for these cases,
which can help find places where the assumption is violated
(as opposed to truncating and proceeding, which may just
silently give a wrong answer).

the size of the message, primarily to avoid memory allocation while
calling die().
* jk/long-error-messages:
vreportf: avoid intermediate buffer
vreportf: report to arbitrary filehandles
The vreportf function always goes to stderr, but run-command
wants child errors to go to the parent's original stderr. To
solve this, commit a5487dd duplicates the stderr fd and
installs die and error handlers to direct the output
appropriately (which later turned into the vwritef
function). This has two downsides, though:
- we make multiple calls to write(), which contradicts the
"write at once" logic from d048a96 (print
warning/error/fatal messages in one shot, 2007-11-09).
- the custom handlers basically duplicate the normal
handlers. They're only a few lines of code, but we
should not have to repeat the magic "exit(128)", for
example.
We can solve the first by using fdopen() on the duplicated
descriptor. We can't pass this to vreportf, but we could
introduce a new vreportf_to to handle it.
However, to fix the second problem, we instead introduce a
new "set_error_handle" function, which lets the normal
vreportf calls output to a handle besides stderr. Thus we
can get rid of our custom handlers entirely, and just ask
the regular handlers to output to our new descriptor.
And as vwritef has no more callers, it can just go away.

The config-writing code uses xmmap to map the existing
config file, which will die if the map fails. This has two
downsides:
1. The error message is not very helpful, as it lacks any
context about the file we are mapping:
$ mkdir foo
$ git config --file=foo some.key value
fatal: Out of memory? mmap failed: No such device
2. We normally do not die in this code path; instead, we'd
rather report the error and return an appropriate exit
status (which is part of the public interface
documented in git-config.1).
This patch introduces a "gentle" form of xmmap which lets us
produce our own error message. We do not want to use mmap
directly, because we would like to use the other
compatibility elements of xmmap (e.g., handling 0-length
maps portably).
The end result is:
$ git.compile config --file=foo some.key value
