7ecd869060 cache.h: add repository argument to oid_object_info_extended
Add a repository argument to allow oid_object_info_extended callers
to be more specific about which repository to act on. This is a small
mechanical change; it doesn't change the implementation to handle
repositories other than the_repository yet.

47f351e9b3 object-store: move lookup_replace_object to replace-object.h
lookup_replace_object is a low-level function that most users of the
object store do not need to use directly.

Move it to replace-object.h to avoid a dependency loop in an upcoming
change to its inline definition that will make use of repository.h.

564bde9ae6 convert less-trivial versions of "write_in_full() != len"
The prior commit converted many sites to check the return
value of write_in_full() for negativity, rather than a
mismatch with the input length. This patch covers similar
cases, but where the return value is stored in an
intermediate variable. These should get the same treatment,
but they need to be reviewed more carefully since it would
be a bug if the return value is stored in an unsigned type
(which indeed, it is in one of the cases).

27b5c1a065 provide an initializer for "struct object_info"
An all-zero initializer is fine for this struct, but because
the first element is a pointer, call sites need to know to
use "NULL" instead of "0". Otherwise some static checkers
like "sparse" will complain; see d099b71 (Fix some sparse
warnings, 2013-07-18) for example.  So let's provide an
initializer to make this easier to get right.

But let's also comment that memset() to zero is explicitly
OK[1]. One of the callers embeds object_info in another
struct which is initialized via memset (expand_data in
builtin/cat-file.c). Since our subset of C doesn't allow
assignment from a compound literal, handling this in any
other way is awkward, so we'd like to keep the ability to
initialize by memset(). By documenting this property, it
should make anybody who wants to change the initializer
think twice before doing so.

There's one other caller of interest. In parse_sha1_header(),
we did not initialize the struct fully in the first place.
This turned out not to be a bug because the sub-function it
calls does not look at any other fields except the ones we
did initialize. But that assumption might not hold in the
future, so it's a dangerous construct. This patch switches
it to initializing the whole struct, which protects us
against unexpected reads of the other fields.

[1] Obviously using memset() to initialize a pointer
    violates the C standard, but we long ago decided that it
    was an acceptable tradeoff in the real world.

9ce4ad3e0e streaming.c: fix a memleak
When stream_blob_to_fd() opens an input stream with a filter, the
filter gets discarded upon calling close_istream() before the
function returns in the normal case.  However, when we fail to open
the stream, we failed to discard the filter.

By discarding the filter in the failure case, give a consistent
life-time rule of the filter to the callers; otherwise the callers
need to conditionally discard the filter themselves, and this
function does not give enough hint for the caller to do so
correctly.

6a907786af open_istream: remove unneeded check for null pointer
'st' is allocated via xmalloc a few lines before and passed to
the stream opening functions.
The xmalloc function is written in a way that either 'st' is allocated
valid memory or xmalloc already dies.
The function calls to open_istream_* do not change 'st', as the pointer is
passed by reference and not a pointer of a pointer.

Hence 'st' cannot be null at that part of the code.

5b0864070e sha1_object_info_extended: make type calculation optional
Each caller of sha1_object_info_extended sets up an
object_info struct to tell the function which elements of
the object it wants to get. Until now, getting the type of
the object has always been required (and it is returned via
the return type rather than a pointer in object_info).

This can involve actually opening a loose object file to
determine its type, or following delta chains to determine a
packed file's base type. These effects produce a measurable
slow-down when doing a "cat-file --batch-check" that does
not include %(objecttype).

This patch adds a "typep" query to struct object_info, so
that it can be optionally queried just like size and
disk_size. As a result, the return type of the function is
no longer the object type, but rather 0/-1 for success/error.

As there are only three callers total, we just fix up each
caller rather than keep a compatibility wrapper:

  1. The simpler sha1_object_info wrapper continues to
     always ask for and return the type field.

  2. The istream_source function wants to know the type, and
     so always asks for it.

  3. The cat-file batch code asks for the type only when
     %(objecttype) is part of the format string.

On linux.git, the best-of-five for running:

  $ git rev-list --objects --all >objects
  $ time git cat-file --batch-check='%(objectsize:disk)'

on a fully packed repository goes from:

  real    0m8.680s
  user    0m8.160s
  sys     0m0.512s

to:

  real    0m7.205s
  user    0m6.580s

7c07385d90 zero-initialize object_info structs
The sha1_object_info_extended function expects the caller to
provide a "struct object_info" which contains pointers to
"query" items that will be filled in. The purpose of
providing pointers rather than storing the response directly
in the struct is so that callers can choose not to incur the
expense in finding particular fields that they do not care
about.

Right now the only query item is "sizep", and all callers
set it explicitly to choose whether or not to query it; they
can then leave the rest of the struct uninitialized.

However, as we add new query items, each caller will have to
be updated to explicitly turn off the new ones (by setting
them to NULL).  Instead, let's teach each caller to
zero-initialize the struct, so that they do not have to
learn about each new query item added.

692f0bc7ae avoid infinite loop in read_istream_loose
The read_istream_loose function loops on inflating a chunk of data
from an mmap'd loose object. We end the loop when we run out
of space in our output buffer, or if we see a zlib error.

We need to treat Z_BUF_ERROR specially, though, as it is not
fatal; it is just zlib's way of telling us that we need to
either feed it more input or give it more output space. It
is perfectly normal for us to hit this when we are at the
end of our buffer.

However, we may also get Z_BUF_ERROR because we have run out
of input. In a well-formed object, this should not happen,
because we have fed the whole mmap'd contents to zlib. But
if the object is truncated or corrupt, we will loop forever,
never giving zlib any more data, but continuing to ask it to
inflate.

We can fix this by considering it an error when zlib returns
Z_BUF_ERROR but we still have output space left (which means
it must want more input, which we know is a truncation
error). It would not be sufficient to just check whether
zlib had consumed all the input at the start of the loop, as
it might still want to generate output from what is in its
internal state.

The git_istream struct is totally opaque to calling code,
and must be heap-allocated by open_istream. Therefore it's
not appropriate for callers to have to free it.

This patch makes close_istream() into "close and de-allocate
all associated resources". We could add a new "free_istream"
call, but there's not much point in letting callers inspect
the istream after close. And this patch's semantics make us
match fopen/fclose, which is well-known and understood.

4ae6670444 stream filter: add "no more input" to the filters
Some filters may need to buffer the input and look-ahead inside it
to decide what to output, and they may consume more than zero bytes
of input and still not produce any output. After feeding all the
input, pass NULL as input as keep calling stream_filter() to let
such filters know there is no more input coming, and it is time for
them to produce the remaining output based on the buffered input.

b6691092d7 Add streaming filter API
This introduces an API to plug custom filters to an input stream.

The caller gets get_stream_filter("path") to obtain an appropriate
filter for the path, and then uses it when opening an input stream
via open_istream().  After that, the caller can read from the stream
with read_istream(), and close it with close_istream(), just like an
unfiltered stream.

This only adds a "null" filter that is a pass-thru filter, but later
changes can add LF-to-CRLF and other filters, and the callers of the
streaming API do not have to change.

46bf043807 streaming: a new API to read from the object store
Given an object name, use open_istream() to get a git_istream handle
that you can read_istream() from as if you are using read(2) to read
the contents of the object, and close it with close_istream() when
you are done.

Currently, we do not do anything fancy--it just calls read_sha1_file()
and keeps the contents in memory as a whole, and carve it out as you
request with read_istream().
