c4500e251f attr: remove index from git_attr_set_direction()
Since attr checking API now take the index, there's no need to set an
index in advance with this call. Most call sites are straightforward
because they either pass the_index or NULL (which defaults back to
the_index previously). There's only one suspicious call site in
unpack-trees.c where it sets a different index.

This code in unpack-trees is about to check out entries from the
new/temporary index after merging is done in it. The attributes will
be used by entry.c code to do crlf conversion if needed. entry.c now
respects struct checkout's istate field, and this field is correctly
set in unpack-trees.c, there should be no regression from this change.

7a400a2c02 attr: remove an implicit dependency on the_index
Make the attr API take an index_state instead of assuming the_index in
attr code. All call sites are converted blindly to keep the patch
simple and retain current behavior. Individual call sites may receive
further updates to use the right index instead of the_index.

There is one ugly temporary workaround added in attr.c that needs some
more explanation.

Commit c24f3abace (apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip
diff and apply - 2017-08-19) forces one convert_to_git() call to NOT
read the index at all. But what do you know, we read it anyway by
falling back to the_index. When "istate" from convert_to_git is now
propagated down to read_attr_from_array() we will hit segfault
somewhere inside read_blob_data_from_index.

The right way of dealing with this is to kill "use_index" variable and
only follow "istate" but at this stage we are not ready for that:
while most git_attr_set_direction() calls just passes the_index to be
assigned to use_index, unpack-trees passes a different one which is
used by entry.c code, which has no way to know what index to use if we
delete use_index. So this has to be done later.

033abf97fc Replace all die("BUG: ...") calls by BUG() ones
In d8193743e0 (usage.c: add BUG() function, 2017-05-12), a new macro
was introduced to use for reporting bugs instead of die(). It was then
subsequently used to convert one single caller in 588a538ae5
(setup_git_env: convert die("BUG") to BUG(), 2017-05-12).

The cover letter of the patch series containing this patch
(cf 20170513032414.mfrwabt4hovujde2@sigill.intra.peff.net) is not
terribly clear why only one call site was converted, or what the plan
is for other, similar calls to die() to report bugs.

Let's just convert all remaining ones in one fell swoop.

This trick was performed by this invocation:

	sed -i 's/die("BUG: /BUG("/g' $(git grep -l 'die("BUG' \*.c)

8b604d1951 hashmap: add API to disable item counting when threaded
This is to address concerns raised by ThreadSanitizer on the mailing list
about threaded unprotected R/W access to map.size with my previous "disallow
rehash" change (0607e10009).

See:
https://public-inbox.org/git/adb37b70139fd1e2bac18bfd22c8b96683ae18eb.1502780344.git.martin.agren@gmail.com/

Add API to hashmap to disable item counting and thus automatic rehashing.
Also include API to later re-enable them.

When item counting is disabled, the map.size field is invalid.  So to
prevent accidents, the field has been renamed and an accessor function
hashmap_get_size() has been added.  All direct references to this
field have been been updated.  And the name of the field changed
to map.private_size to communicate this.

Here is the relevant output from ThreadSanitizer showing the problem:

7663cdc86c hashmap.h: compare function has access to a data field
When using the hashmap a common need is to have access to caller provided
data in the compare function. A couple of times we abuse the keydata field
to pass in the data needed. This happens for example in patch-ids.c.

This patch changes the function signature of the compare function
to have one more void pointer available. The pointer given for each
invocation of the compare function must be defined in the init function
of the hashmap and is just passed through.

Documentation of this new feature is deferred to a later patch.
This is a rather mechanical conversion, just adding the new pass-through
parameter.  However while at it improve the naming of the fields of all
compare functions used by hashmaps by ensuring unused parameters are
prefixed with 'unused_' and naming the parameters what they are (instead
of 'unused' make it 'unused_keydata').

f0dd042148 attr: reformat git_attr_set_direction() function
Move the 'git_attr_set_direction()' up to be closer to the variables
that it modifies as well as a small formatting by renaming the variable
'new' to 'new_direction' so that it is more descriptive.

Update the comment about how 'direction' is used to read the state of
the world.  It should be noted that callers of
'git_attr_set_direction()' should ensure that other threads are not
making calls into the attribute system until after the call to
'git_attr_set_direction()' completes.  This function essentially acts as
reset button for the attribute system and should be handled with care.

dc81cf377c attr: store attribute stack in attr_check structure
The last big hurdle towards a thread-safe API for the attribute system
is the reliance on a global attribute stack that is modified during each
call into the attribute system.

This patch removes this global stack and instead a stack is stored
locally in each attr_check instance.  This opens up the opportunity for
future optimizations to customize the attribute stack for the attributes
that a particular attr_check struct is interested in.

One caveat with pushing the attribute stack into the attr_check
structure is that the attribute system now needs to keep track of all
active attr_check instances.  Due to the direction mechanism the stack
needs to be dropped when the direction is switched.  In order to ensure
correctness when the direction is changed the attribute system needs to
iterate through all active attr_check instances and drop each of their
stacks.

60a12722ac attr: remove maybe-real, maybe-macro from git_attr
Whether or not a git attribute is real or a macro isn't a property of
the attribute but rather it depends on the attribute stack (which
.gitattribute files were read).

This patch removes the 'maybe_real' and 'maybe_macro' fields in a
git_attr and instead adds the 'macro' field to a attr_check_item.  The
'macro' indicates (if non-NULL) that a particular attribute is a macro
for the given attribute stack.  It's populated, through a quick scan of
the attribute stack, with the match_attr that corresponds to the macro's
definition.  This way the attribute stack only needs to be scanned a
single time prior to attribute collection instead of each time a macro
needs to be expanded.

685b292575 attr: eliminate global check_all_attr array
Currently there is a reliance on 'check_all_attr' which is a global
array of 'attr_check_item' items which is used to store the value of
each attribute during the collection process.

This patch eliminates this global and instead creates an array per

process.  This brings the attribute system one step closer to being
thread-safe.

7f8641112d attr: convert git_all_attrs() to use "struct attr_check"
This updates the other two ways the attribute check is done via an
array of "struct attr_check_item" elements.  These two niches
appear only in "git check-attr".

 * The caller does not know offhand what attributes it wants to ask
   about and cannot use attr_check_initl() to prepare the
   attr_check structure.

 * The caller may not know what attributes it wants to ask at all,
   and instead wants to learn everything that the given path has.

Such a caller can call attr_check_alloc() to allocate an empty
attr_check, and then call attr_check_append() to add attribute names
one by one.

37293768d0 attr: (re)introduce git_check_attr() and struct attr_check
A common pattern to check N attributes for many paths is to

 (1) prepare an array A of N attr_check_item items;
 (2) call git_attr() to intern the N attribute names and fill A;
 (3) repeatedly call git_check_attrs() for path with N and A;

A look-up for these N attributes for a single path P scans the
entire attr_stack, starting from the .git/info/attributes file and
then .gitattributes file in the directory the path P is in, going
upwards to find .gitattributes file found in parent directories.

An earlier commit 06a604e6 (attr: avoid heavy work when we know the
specified attr is not defined, 2014-12-28) tried to optimize out
this scanning for one trivial special case: when the attribute being
sought is known not to exist, we do not have to scan for it.  While
this may be a cheap and effective heuristic, it would not work well
when N is (much) more than 1.

What we would want is a more customized way to skip irrelevant
entries in the attribute stack, and the definition of irrelevance
is tied to the set of attributes passed to git_check_attrs() call,
i.e. the set of attributes being sought.  The data necessary for
this optimization needs to live alongside the set of attributes, but
a simple array of git_attr_check_elem simply does not have any place
for that.

Introduce "struct attr_check" that contains N, the number of
attributes being sought, and A, the array that holds N
attr_check_item items, and a function git_check_attr() that
takes a path P and this structure as its parameters.  This structure
can later be extended to hold extra data necessary for optimization.

Also, to make it easier to write the first two steps in common
cases, introduce git_attr_check_initl() helper function, which takes
a NULL-terminated list of attribute names and initialize this
structure.

4894f4ffce attr.c: update a stale comment on "struct match_attr"
When 82dce998 (attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore,
2012-10-15) changed a pointer to a string "*pattern" into an
embedded "struct pattern" in struct match_attr, it forgot to update
the comment that describes the structure.

f0056f6419 read info/{attributes,exclude} only when in repository
The low-level attribute and gitignore code will try to look
in $GIT_DIR/info for any repo-level configuration files,
even if we have not actually determined that we are in a
repository (e.g., running "git grep --no-index"). In such a
case they end up looking for ".git/info/attributes", etc.

This is generally harmless, as such a file is unlikely to
exist outside of a repository, but it's still conceptually
the wrong thing to do.

Let's detect this situation explicitly and skip reading the
file (i.e., the same behavior we'd get if we were in a
repository and the file did not exist).

f870899864 dir: store EXC_FLAG_* values in unsigned integers
The values defined by the macro EXC_FLAG_* (1, 4, 8, 16) are stored
in fields of the structs "pattern" and "exclude", some functions
arguments and a local variable.  None of these uses its most
significant bit in any special way and there is no good reason to
use a signed integer for them.

And while we're at it, document "flags" of "exclude" to explicitly
state the values it's supposed to take on.

96ffc06f72 convert trivial cases to FLEX_ARRAY macros
Using FLEX_ARRAY macros reduces the amount of manual
computation size we have to do. It also ensures we don't
overflow size_t, and it makes sure we write the same number
of bytes that we allocated.

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.

f932729cc7 memoize common git-path "constant" files
One of the most common uses of git_path() is to pass a
constant, like git_path("MERGE_MSG"). This has two
drawbacks:

  1. The return value is a static buffer, and the lifetime
     is dependent on other calls to git_path, etc.

  2. There's no compile-time checking of the pathname. This
     is OK for a one-off (after all, we have to spell it
     correctly at least once), but many of these constant
     strings appear throughout the code.

This patch introduces a series of functions to "memoize"
these strings, which are essentially globals for the
lifetime of the program. We compute the value once, take
ownership of the buffer, and return the cached value for
subsequent calls.  cache.h provides a helper macro for
defining these functions as one-liners, and defines a few
common ones for global use.

Using a macro is a little bit gross, but it does nicely
document the purpose of the functions. If we need to touch
them all later (e.g., because we learned how to change the
git_dir variable at runtime, and need to invalidate all of
the stored values), it will be much easier to have the
complete list.

Note that the shared-global functions have separate, manual
declarations. We could do something clever with the macros
(e.g., expand it to a declaration in some places, and a
declaration _and_ a definition in path.c). But there aren't
that many, and it's probably better to stay away from
too-magical macros.

Likewise, if we abandon the C preprocessor in favor of
generating these with a script, we could get much fancier.
E.g., normalizing "FOO/BAR-BAZ" into "git_path_foo_bar_baz".
But the small amount of saved typing is probably not worth
the resulting confusion to readers who want to grep for the
function's definition.
