pkt-line: provide a LARGE_PACKET_MAX static buffer Most of the callers of packet_read_line just read into a static 1000-byte buffer (callers which handle arbitrary binary data already use LARGE_PACKET_MAX). This works fine in practice, because: 1. The only variable-sized data in these lines is a ref name, and refs tend to be a lot shorter than 1000 characters. 2. When sending ref lines, git-core always limits itself to 1000 byte packets. However, the only limit given in the protocol specification in Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt is LARGE_PACKET_MAX; the 1000 byte limit is mentioned only in pack-protocol.txt, and then only describing what we write, not as a specific limit for readers. This patch lets us bump the 1000-byte limit to LARGE_PACKET_MAX. Even though git-core will never write a packet where this makes a difference, there are two good reasons to do this: 1. Other git implementations may have followed protocol-common.txt and used a larger maximum size. We don't bump into it in practice because it would involve very long ref names. 2. We may want to increase the 1000-byte limit one day. Since packets are transferred before any capabilities, it's difficult to do this in a backwards-compatible way. But if we bump the size of buffer the readers can handle, eventually older versions of git will be obsolete enough that we can justify bumping the writers, as well. We don't have plans to do this anytime soon, but there is no reason not to start the clock ticking now. Just bumping all of the reading bufs to LARGE_PACKET_MAX would waste memory. Instead, since most readers just read into a temporary buffer anyway, let's provide a single static buffer that all callers can use. We can further wrap this detail away by having the packet_read_line wrapper just use the buffer transparently and return a pointer to the static storage. That covers most of the cases, and the remaining ones already read into their own LARGE_PACKET_MAX buffers. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

pkt-line: share buffer/descriptor reading implementation The packet_read function reads from a descriptor. The packet_get_line function is similar, but reads from an in-memory buffer, and uses a completely separate implementation. This patch teaches the generic packet_read function to accept either source, and we can do away with packet_get_line's implementation. There are two other differences to account for between the old and new functions. The first is that we used to read into a strbuf, but now read into a fixed size buffer. The only two callers are fine with that, and in fact it simplifies their code, since they can use the same static-buffer interface as the rest of the packet_read_line callers (and we provide a similar convenience wrapper for reading from a buffer rather than a descriptor). This is technically an externally-visible behavior change in that we used to accept arbitrary sized packets up to 65532 bytes, and now cap out at LARGE_PACKET_MAX, 65520. In practice this doesn't matter, as we use it only for parsing smart-http headers (of which there is exactly one defined, and it is small and fixed-size). And any extension headers would be breaking the protocol to go over LARGE_PACKET_MAX anyway. The other difference is that packet_get_line would return on error rather than dying. However, both callers of packet_get_line are actually improved by dying. The first caller does its own error checking, but we can drop that; as a result, we'll actually get more specific reporting about protocol breakage when packet_read dies internally. The only downside is that packet_read will not print the smart-http URL that failed, but that's not a big deal; anybody not debugging can already see the remote's URL already, and anybody debugging would want to run with GIT_CURL_VERBOSE anyway to see way more information. The second caller, which is just trying to skip past any extra smart-http headers (of which there are none defined, but which we allow to keep room for future expansion), did not error check at all. As a result, it would treat an error just like a flush packet. The resulting mess would generally cause an error later in get_remote_heads, but now we get error reporting much closer to the source of the problem.

pkt-line: teach packet_read_line to chomp newlines The packets sent during ref negotiation are all terminated by newline; even though the code to chomp these newlines is short, we end up doing it in a lot of places. This patch teaches packet_read_line to auto-chomp the trailing newline; this lets us get rid of a lot of inline chomping code. As a result, some call-sites which are not reading line-oriented data (e.g., when reading chunks of packfiles alongside sideband) transition away from packet_read_line to the generic packet_read interface. This patch converts all of the existing callsites. Since the function signature of packet_read_line does not change (but its behavior does), there is a possibility of new callsites being introduced in later commits, silently introducing an incompatibility. However, since a later patch in this series will change the signature, such a commit would have to be merged directly into this commit, not to the tip of the series; we can therefore ignore the issue. This is an internal cleanup and should produce no change of behavior in the normal case. However, there is one corner case to note. Callers of packet_read_line have never been able to tell the difference between a flush packet ("0000") and an empty packet ("0004"), as both cause packet_read_line to return a length of 0. Readers treat them identically, even though Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt says we must not; it also says that implementations should not send an empty pkt-line. By stripping out the newline before the result gets to the caller, we will now treat the newline-only packet ("0005\n") the same as an empty packet, which in turn gets treated like a flush packet. In practice this doesn't matter, as neither empty nor newline-only packets are part of git's protocols (at least not for the line-oriented bits, and readers who are not expecting line-oriented packets will be calling packet_read directly, anyway). But even if we do decide to care about the distinction later, it is orthogonal to this patch. The right place to tighten would be to stop treating empty packets as flush packets, and this change does not make doing so any harder.

pkt-line: provide a LARGE_PACKET_MAX static buffer Most of the callers of packet_read_line just read into a static 1000-byte buffer (callers which handle arbitrary binary data already use LARGE_PACKET_MAX). This works fine in practice, because: 1. The only variable-sized data in these lines is a ref name, and refs tend to be a lot shorter than 1000 characters. 2. When sending ref lines, git-core always limits itself to 1000 byte packets. However, the only limit given in the protocol specification in Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt is LARGE_PACKET_MAX; the 1000 byte limit is mentioned only in pack-protocol.txt, and then only describing what we write, not as a specific limit for readers. This patch lets us bump the 1000-byte limit to LARGE_PACKET_MAX. Even though git-core will never write a packet where this makes a difference, there are two good reasons to do this: 1. Other git implementations may have followed protocol-common.txt and used a larger maximum size. We don't bump into it in practice because it would involve very long ref names. 2. We may want to increase the 1000-byte limit one day. Since packets are transferred before any capabilities, it's difficult to do this in a backwards-compatible way. But if we bump the size of buffer the readers can handle, eventually older versions of git will be obsolete enough that we can justify bumping the writers, as well. We don't have plans to do this anytime soon, but there is no reason not to start the clock ticking now. Just bumping all of the reading bufs to LARGE_PACKET_MAX would waste memory. Instead, since most readers just read into a temporary buffer anyway, let's provide a single static buffer that all callers can use. We can further wrap this detail away by having the packet_read_line wrapper just use the buffer transparently and return a pointer to the static storage. That covers most of the cases, and the remaining ones already read into their own LARGE_PACKET_MAX buffers. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The first caller does its own error checking, but we can drop that; as a result, we'll actually get more specific reporting about protocol breakage when packet_read dies internally. The only downside is that packet_read will not print the smart-http URL that failed, but that's not a big deal; anybody not debugging can already see the remote's URL already, and anybody debugging would want to run with GIT_CURL_VERBOSE anyway to see way more information. The second caller, which is just trying to skip past any extra smart-http headers (of which there are none defined, but which we allow to keep room for future expansion), did not error check at all. As a result, it would treat an error just like a flush packet. The resulting mess would generally cause an error later in get_remote_heads, but now we get error reporting much closer to the source of the problem.

pkt-line: provide a LARGE_PACKET_MAX static buffer Most of the callers of packet_read_line just read into a static 1000-byte buffer (callers which handle arbitrary binary data already use LARGE_PACKET_MAX). This works fine in practice, because: 1. The only variable-sized data in these lines is a ref name, and refs tend to be a lot shorter than 1000 characters. 2. When sending ref lines, git-core always limits itself to 1000 byte packets. However, the only limit given in the protocol specification in Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt is LARGE_PACKET_MAX; the 1000 byte limit is mentioned only in pack-protocol.txt, and then only describing what we write, not as a specific limit for readers. This patch lets us bump the 1000-byte limit to LARGE_PACKET_MAX. Even though git-core will never write a packet where this makes a difference, there are two good reasons to do this: 1. Other git implementations may have followed protocol-common.txt and used a larger maximum size. We don't bump into it in practice because it would involve very long ref names. 2. We may want to increase the 1000-byte limit one day. Since packets are transferred before any capabilities, it's difficult to do this in a backwards-compatible way. But if we bump the size of buffer the readers can handle, eventually older versions of git will be obsolete enough that we can justify bumping the writers, as well. We don't have plans to do this anytime soon, but there is no reason not to start the clock ticking now. Just bumping all of the reading bufs to LARGE_PACKET_MAX would waste memory. Instead, since most readers just read into a temporary buffer anyway, let's provide a single static buffer that all callers can use. We can further wrap this detail away by having the packet_read_line wrapper just use the buffer transparently and return a pointer to the static storage. That covers most of the cases, and the remaining ones already read into their own LARGE_PACKET_MAX buffers. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

pkt-line: share buffer/descriptor reading implementation The packet_read function reads from a descriptor. The packet_get_line function is similar, but reads from an in-memory buffer, and uses a completely separate implementation. This patch teaches the generic packet_read function to accept either source, and we can do away with packet_get_line's implementation. There are two other differences to account for between the old and new functions. The first is that we used to read into a strbuf, but now read into a fixed size buffer. The only two callers are fine with that, and in fact it simplifies their code, since they can use the same static-buffer interface as the rest of the packet_read_line callers (and we provide a similar convenience wrapper for reading from a buffer rather than a descriptor). This is technically an externally-visible behavior change in that we used to accept arbitrary sized packets up to 65532 bytes, and now cap out at LARGE_PACKET_MAX, 65520. In practice this doesn't matter, as we use it only for parsing smart-http headers (of which there is exactly one defined, and it is small and fixed-size).
