56a1a3ab44 Silence GCC's "cast of pointer to integer of a different size" warning
When calculating hashes from pointers, it actually makes sense to cut
off the most significant bits. In that case, said warning does not make
a whole lot of sense.

So let's just work around it by casting the pointer first to intptr_t
and then casting up/down to the final integral type.

38849a8116 sha1_file.c: add a function to release all packs
On Windows, files that are in use cannot be removed or renamed. That
means that we have to release pack files when we are about to, say,
repack them. Let's introduce a convenient function to close all the
pack files and their idx files.

While at it, we consolidate the close windows/close fd/close index
stanza in `free_pack_by_name()` into the `close_pack()` function that
is used by the new `close_all_packs()` function to avoid repeated code.

c7ab0ba340 avoid sprintf and strcpy with flex arrays
When we are allocating a struct with a FLEX_ARRAY member, we
generally compute the size of the array and then sprintf or
strcpy into it. Normally we could improve a dynamic allocation
like this by using xstrfmt, but it doesn't work here; we
have to account for the size of the rest of the struct.

But we can improve things a bit by storing the length that
we use for the allocation, and then feeding it to xsnprintf
or memcpy, which makes it more obvious that we are not
writing more than the allocated number of bytes.

It would be nice if we had some kind of helper for
allocating generic flex arrays, but it doesn't work that
well:

 - the call signature is a little bit unwieldy:

      d = flex_struct(sizeof(*d), offsetof(d, path), fmt, ...);

   You need offsetof here instead of just writing to the
   end of the base size, because we don't know how the
   struct is packed (partially this is because FLEX_ARRAY
   might not be zero, though we can account for that; but
   the size of the struct may actually be rounded up for
   alignment, and we can't know that).

 - some sites do clever things, like over-allocating because
   they know they will write larger things into the buffer
   later (e.g., struct packed_git here).

So we're better off to just write out each allocation (or
add type-specific helpers, though many of these are one-off
allocations anyway).

d4b3d11a03 write_loose_object: convert to strbuf
When creating a loose object tempfile, we use a fixed
PATH_MAX-sized buffer, and strcpy directly into it. This
isn't buggy, because we do a rough check of the size, but
there's no verification that our guesstimate of the required
space is enough (in fact, it's several bytes too big for the
current naming scheme).

Let's switch to a strbuf, which makes this much easier to
verify. The allocation overhead should be negligible, since
we are replacing a static buffer with a static strbuf, and
we'll only need to allocate on the first call.

While we're here, we can also document a subtle interaction
with mkstemp that would be easy to overlook.

ac5190cc48 sha1_get_pack_name: use a strbuf
We do some manual memory computation here, and there's no
check that our 60 is not overflowed by the raw sprintf (it
isn't, because the "which" parameter is never longer than
"pack"). We can simplify this greatly with a strbuf.

Technically the end result is not identical, as the original
took care not to rewrite the object directory on each call
for performance reasons.  We could do that here, too (by
saving the baselen and resetting to it), but it's not worth
the complexity; this function is not called a lot (generally
once per packfile that we open).

9ae97018fb use strip_suffix and xstrfmt to replace suffix
When we want to convert "foo.pack" to "foo.idx", we do it by
duplicating the original string and then munging the bytes
in place. Let's use strip_suffix and xstrfmt instead, which
has several advantages:

  1. It's more clear what the intent is.

  2. It does not implicitly rely on the fact that
     strlen(".idx") <= strlen(".pack") to avoid an overflow.

  3. We communicate the assumption that the input file ends
     with ".pack" (and get a run-time check that this is so).

  4. We drop calls to strcpy, which makes auditing the code
     base easier.

Likewise, we can do this to convert ".pack" to ".bitmap",
avoiding some manual memory computation.

48bcc1c3cc add_packed_git: convert strcpy into xsnprintf
We have the path "foo.idx", and we create a buffer big
enough to hold "foo.pack" and "foo.keep", and then strcpy
straight into it. This isn't a bug (we have enough space),
but it's very hard to tell from the strcpy that this is so.

Let's instead use strip_suffix to take off the ".idx",
record the size of our allocation, and use xsnprintf to make
sure we don't violate our assumptions.

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).

5015f01c12 read_info_alternates: handle paths larger than PATH_MAX
This function assumes that the relative_base path passed
into it is no larger than PATH_MAX, and writes into a
fixed-size buffer. However, this path may not have actually
come from the filesystem; for example, add_submodule_odb
generates a path using a strbuf and passes it in. This is
hard to trigger in practice, though, because the long
submodule directory would have to exist on disk before we
would try to open its info/alternates file.

We can easily avoid the bug, though, by simply creating the
filename on the heap.

0a489b0680 prepare_packed_git(): refactor garbage reporting in pack directory
The hook to report "garbage" files in $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/pack/
could be generic but is too specific to count-object's needs.

Move the part to produce human-readable messages to count-objects,
and refine the interface to callback with the "bits" with values
defined in the cache.h header file, so that other callers (e.g.
prune) can later use the same mechanism to enumerate different
kinds of garbage files and do something intelligent about them,
other than reporting in textual messages.

dff6f280df git_open_noatime: return with errno=0 on success
In read_sha1_file_extended we die if read_object fails with a fatal
error. We detect a fatal error if errno is non-zero and is not
ENOENT. If the object could not be read because it does not exist,
this is not considered a fatal error and we want to return NULL.

Somewhere down the line, read_object calls git_open_noatime to open
a pack index file, for example. We first try open with O_NOATIME.
If O_NOATIME fails with EPERM, we retry without O_NOATIME. When the
second open succeeds, errno is however still set to EPERM from the
first attempt. When we finally determine that the object does not
exist, read_object returns NULL and read_sha1_file_extended dies
with a fatal error:

    fatal: failed to read object <sha1>: Operation not permitted

Fix this by resetting errno to zero before we call open again.

77b9b1d13a add_to_alternates_file: don't add duplicate entries
The add_to_alternates_file function blindly uses
hold_lock_file_for_append to copy the existing contents, and
then adds the new line to it. This has two minor problems:

  1. We might add duplicate entries, which are ugly and
     inefficient.

  2. We do not check that the file ends with a newline, in
     which case we would bogusly append to the final line.
     This is quite unlikely in practice, though, as we call
     this function only from git-clone, so presumably we are
     the only writers of the file (and we always add a
     newline).

Instead of using hold_lock_file_for_append, let's copy the
file line by line, which ensures all records are properly
terminated. If we see an extra line, we can simply abort the
update (there is no point in even copying the rest, as we
know that it would be identical to the original).

As a bonus, we also get rid of some calls to the
static-buffer mkpath and git_path functions.

cb5add5868 sha1_file.c: rename move_temp_to_file() to finalize_object_file()
Since 5a688fe4 ("core.sharedrepository = 0mode" should set, not
loosen, 2009-03-25), we kept reminding ourselves:

    NEEDSWORK: this should be renamed to finalize_temp_file() as
    "moving" is only a part of what it does, when no patch between
    master to pu changes the call sites of this function.

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.

3096b2ecdb check_and_freshen_file: fix reversed success-check
When we want to write out a loose object file, we have
always first made sure we don't already have the object
somewhere. Since 33d4221 (write_sha1_file: freshen existing
objects, 2014-10-15), we also update the timestamp on the
file, so that a simultaneous prune knows somebody is
likely to reference it soon.

If our utime() call fails, we treat this the same as not
having the object in the first place; the safe thing to do
is write out another copy. However, the loose-object check
accidentally inverts the utime() check; it returns failure
_only_ when the utime() call actually succeeded. Thus it was
failing to protect us there, and in the normal case where
utime() succeeds, it caused us to pointlessly write out and
link the object.

This passed our freshening tests, because writing out the
new object is certainly _one_ way of updating its utime. So
the normal case was inefficient, but not wrong.

While we're here, let's also drop a comment in front of the
check_and_freshen functions, making a note of their return
type (since it is not our usual "0 for success, -1 for
error").

f813e9ea5f for_each_packed_object: automatically open pack index
When for_each_packed_object is called, we call
prepare_packed_git() to make sure we have the actual list of
packs. But the latter does not actually open the pack
indices, meaning that pack->nr_objects may simply be 0 if
the pack has not otherwise been used since the program
started.

In practice, this didn't come up for the current callers,
because they iterate the packed objects only after iterating
all reachable objects (so for it to matter you would have to
have a pack consisting only of unreachable objects). But it
is a dangerous and confusing interface that should be fixed
for future callers.

Note that we do not end the iteration when a pack cannot be
opened, but we do return an error. That lets you complete
the iteration even in actively-repacked repository where an
.idx file may racily go away, but it also lets callers know
that they may not have gotten the complete list (which the
current reachability-check caller does care about).

We have to tweak one of the prune tests due to the changed
return value; an earlier test creates bogus .idx files and
does not clean them up. Having to make this tweak is a good
thing; it means we will not prune in a broken repository,
and the test confirms that we do not negatively impact a
more lenient caller, count-objects.

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.

152722f155 Merge branch 'jh/filter-empty-contents'
The clean/smudge interface did not work well when filtering an
empty contents (failed and then passed the empty input through).
It can be argued that a filter that produces anything but empty for
an empty input is nonsense, but if the user wants to do strange
things, then why not?

9ca0aaf6de xmmap(): drop "Out of memory?"
We show that message with die_errno(), but the OS is ought to know
why mmap(2) failed much better than we do.  There is no reason for
us to say "Out of memory?" here.

1570856b51 config.c: avoid xmmap error messages
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
    error: unable to mmap 'foo': No such device
    $ echo $?

f6a1e1e288 sha1_file: pass empty buffer to index empty file
`git add` of an empty file with a filter pops complaints from
`copy_fd` about a bad file descriptor.

This traces back to these lines in sha1_file.c:index_core:

	if (!size) {
		ret = index_mem(sha1, NULL, size, type, path, flags);

The problem here is that content to be added to the index can be
supplied from an fd, or from a memory buffer, or from a pathname. This
call is supplying a NULL buffer pointer and a zero size.

Downstream logic takes the complete absence of a buffer to mean the
data is to be found elsewhere -- for instance, these, from convert.c:

	if (params->src) {
		write_err = (write_in_full(child_process.in, params->src, params->size) < 0);
	} else {
		write_err = copy_fd(params->fd, child_process.in);
	}

~If there's a buffer, write from that, otherwise the data must be coming
from an open fd.~

Perfectly reasonable logic in a routine that's going to write from
either a buffer or an fd.

So change `index_core` to supply an empty buffer when indexing an empty
file.

There's a patch out there that instead changes the logic quoted above to
take a `-1` fd to mean "use the buffer", but it seems to me that the
distinction between a missing buffer and an empty one carries intrinsic
semantics, where the logic change is adapting the code to handle
incorrect arguments.

46f034483e sha1_file: support reading from a loose object of unknown type
Update sha1_loose_object_info() to optionally allow it to read
from a loose object file of unknown/bogus type; as the function
usually returns the type of the object it read in the form of enum
for known types, add an optional "typename" field to receive the
name of the type in textual form and a flag to indicate the reading
of a loose object file of unknown/bogus type.

Add parse_sha1_header_extended() which acts as a wrapper around
parse_sha1_header() allowing more information to be obtained.

Add unpack_sha1_header_to_strbuf() to unpack sha1 headers of
unknown/corrupt objects which have a unknown sha1 header size to
a strbuf structure. This was written by Junio C Hamano but tested
by me.
