Since f6ecc62dbf (write_shared_index(): use tempfile module, 2015-08-10)
write_shared_index() has been using mks_tempfile() to create the
temporary file that will become the shared index.
But even before that, it looks like the functions used to create this
file didn't call adjust_shared_perm(), which means that the shared
index file has always been created with 600 permissions regardless
of the shared permission settings.
Because of that, on repositories created with `git init --shared=all`
and using the split index feature, one gets an error like:
fatal: .git/sharedindex.a52f910b489bc462f187ab572ba0086f7b5157de: index file open failed: Permission denied
when another user performs any operation that reads the shared index.
Call adjust_shared_perm() on the temporary file created by
mks_tempfile() ourselves to adjust the permission bits.

The code uses git_path() to compute the shared index filename, and
passes it to check_and_freshen_file() as its argument; there is no
guarantee that the rotating pathname buffer passed as argument will
stay valid during the life of this call. Make our own copy before

Teach has_dir_name() to see if the path of the new item

has_dir_name() is looking for file/directory collisions

When writing a new split-index and there is a big number of cache
entries in the split-index compared to the shared index, it is a
good idea to regenerate the shared index.
By default when the ratio reaches 20%, we will push back all
the entries from the split-index into a new shared index file
instead of just creating a new split-index file.
The threshold can be configured using the
"splitIndex.maxPercentChange" config variable.
We need to adjust the existing tests in t1700 by setting
"splitIndex.maxPercentChange" to 100 at the beginning of t1700,
as the existing tests are assuming that the shared index is
regenerated only when `git update-index --split-index` is used.

The codeflow of setting NOATIME and CLOEXEC on file descriptors Git
opens has been simplified.
We may want to drop the tip one, but we'll see.

sha1_file: stop opening files with O_NOATIME
git_open_cloexec(): use fcntl(2) w/ FD_CLOEXEC fallback
git_open(): untangle possible NOATIME and CLOEXEC interactions
Callers of the hold_locked_index() function pass 0 when they want to
prepare to write a new version of the index file without wishing to
die or emit an error message when the request fails (e.g. somebody
else already held the lock), and pass 1 when they want the call to
die upon failure.
This option is called LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR by the underlying lockfile
API, and the hold_locked_index() function translates the paramter to
LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR when calling the hold_lock_file_for_update().
Replace these hardcoded '1' with LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR and stop
translating. Callers other than the ones that are replaced with
this change pass '0' to the function; no behaviour change is
intended with this patch.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
---
Among the callers of hold_locked_index() that passes 0:
- diff.c::refresh_index_quietly() at the end of "git diff" is an
opportunistic update; it leaks the lockfile structure but it is
just before the program exits and nobody should care.
- builtin/describe.c::cmd_describe(),
builtin/commit.c::cmd_status(),
sequencer.c::read_and_refresh_cache() are all opportunistic
updates and they are OK.
- builtin/update-index.c::cmd_update_index() takes a lock upfront
but we may end up not needing to update the index (i.e. the
entries may be fully up-to-date), in which case we do not need to
issue an error upon failure to acquire the lock. We do diagnose
and die if we indeed need to update, so it is OK.
- wt-status.c::require_clean_work_tree() IS BUGGY. It asks
silence, does not check the returned value. Compare with
callsites like cmd_describe() and cmd_status() to notice that it
is wrong to call update_index_if_able() unconditionally.
The way we structured the fallback/retry mechanism for opening with
O_NOATIME and O_CLOEXEC meant that if we failed due to lack of
support to open the file with O_NOATIME option (i.e. EINVAL), we
would still try to drop O_CLOEXEC first and retry, and then drop
O_NOATIME. A platform on which O_NOATIME is defined in the header
without support from the kernel wouldn't have a chance to open with
O_CLOEXEC option due to this code structure.
Arguably, O_CLOEXEC is more important than O_NOATIME, as the latter
is mostly about performance, while the former can affect correctness.
Instead use O_CLOEXEC to open the file, and then use fcntl(2) to set
O_NOATIME on the resulting file descriptor. open(2) itself does not
cause atime to be updated according to Linus [*1*].
The helper to do the former can be usable in the codepath in
ce_compare_data() that was recently added to open a file descriptor
with O_CLOEXEC; use it while we are at it.

This fixes "convert: add filter.<driver>.process option" (edcc8581) on
Windows.
Consider the case of a file that requires filtering and is present in
branch A but not in branch B. If A is the current HEAD and we checkout B
then the following happens:
1. ce_compare_data() opens the file
2. index_fd() detects that the file requires to run a clean filter and
calls index_stream_convert_blob()
4. index_stream_convert_blob() calls convert_to_git_filter_fd()
5. convert_to_git_filter_fd() calls apply_filter() which creates a
new long running filter process (in case it is the first file
of this kind to be filtered)
6. The new filter process inherits all file handles. This is the
default on Linux/OSX and is explicitly defined in the
`CreateProcessW` call in `mingw.c` on Windows.
7. ce_compare_data() closes the file
8. Git unlinks the file as it is not present in B
The unlink operation does not work on Windows because the filter process
has still an open handle to the file. On Linux/OSX the unlink operation
succeeds but the file descriptors still leak into the child process.
Fix this problem by opening files in read-cache with the O_CLOEXEC flag
to ensure that the file descriptor does not remain open in a newly
spawned process similar to 05d1ed6148 ("mingw: ensure temporary file
handles are not inherited by child processes", 2016-08-22).

"git merge" with renormalization did not work well with
merge-recursive, due to "safer crlf" conversion kicking in when it
shouldn't.
* jc/renormalize-merge-kill-safer-crlf:
merge: avoid "safer crlf" during recording of merge results
convert: unify the "auto" handling of CRLF
When merge_recursive() decides what the correct blob object merge
result for a path should be, it uses update_file_flags() helper
function to write it out to a working tree file and then calls
add_cacheinfo(). The add_cacheinfo() function in turn calls
make_cache_entry() to create a new cache entry to replace the
higher-stage entries for the path that represents the conflict.
The make_cache_entry() function calls refresh_cache_entry() to fill
in the cached stat information. To mark a cache entry as
up-to-date, the data is re-read from the file in the working tree,
and goes through convert_to_git() conversion to be compared with the
blob object name the new cache entry records.
It is important to note that this happens while the higher-stage
entries, which are going to be replaced with the new entry, are
still in the index. Unfortunately, the convert_to_git() conversion
has a misguided "safer crlf" mechanism baked in, and looks at the
existing cache entry for the path to decide how to convert the
contents in the working tree file. If our side (i.e. stage#2)
records a text blob with CRLF in it, even when the system is
configured to record LF in blobs and convert them to CRLF upon
checkout (and back to LF upon checkin), the "safer crlf" mechanism
stops us doing so.
This especially poses a problem during a renormalizing merge, where
the merge result for the path is computed by first "normalizing" the
blobs involved in the merge by using convert_to_working_tree()
followed by convert_to_git() with "safer crlf" disabled. The merge
result that is computed correctly and fed to add_cacheinfo() via
update_file_flags() does _not_ match what refresh_cache_entry() sees
by converting the working tree file via convert_to_git().
We can work this around by not refreshing the new cache entry in
make_cache_entry() called by add_cacheinfo(). After add_cacheinfo()
adds the new entry, we can call refresh_cache_entry() on that,
knowing that addition of this new cache entry would have removed the
stale cache entries that had CRLF in stage #2 that were carried over
before the renormalizing merge started and will not interfere with
the correct recording of the result.
The test update was taken from a series by Torsten Bögershausen
that attempted to fix this with a different approach.

The executable bit will not be detected (and therefore will not be

though the users may still wish to add files as executable for

wish to add them as executable for compatibility with users on

Although this can be done with a plumbing command

When we know that mtime on directory as given by the environment
is usable for the purpose of untracked cache, we may want the
untracked cache to be always used without any mtime test or
kernel name check being performed.
Also when we know that mtime is not usable for the purpose of
untracked cache, for example because the repo is shared over a
network file system, we may want the untracked-cache to be
automatically removed from the index.
Allow the user to express such preference by setting the
'core.untrackedCache' configuration variable, which can take
'keep', 'false', or 'true' and default to 'keep'.
When read_index_from() is called, it now adds or removes the
untracked cache in the index to respect the value of this
variable. So it does nothing if the value is `keep` or if the
variable is unset; it adds the untracked cache if the value is
`true`; and it removes the cache if the value is `false`.
`git update-index --[no-|force-]untracked-cache` still adds the
untracked cache to, or removes it, from the index, but this
shows a warning if it goes against the value of
core.untrackedCache, because the next time the index is read
the untracked cache will be added or removed if the
configuration is set to do so.
Also `--untracked-cache` used to check that the underlying
operating system and file system change `st_mtime` field of a
directory if files are added or deleted in that directory. But
because those tests take a long time, `--untracked-cache` no
longer performs them. Instead, there is now
`--test-untracked-cache` to perform the tests. This change
makes `--untracked-cache` the same as `--force-untracked-cache`.
This last change is backward incompatible and should be
mentioned in the release notes.

Paths that have been told the index about with "add -N" are not
quite yet in the index, but a few commands behaved as if they
already are in a harmful way.
* nd/ita-cleanup:
grep: make it clear i-t-a entries are ignored
add and use a convenience macro ce_intent_to_add()
blame: remove obsolete comment
The name-hash subsystem that is used to cope with case insensitive
filesystems keeps track of directories and their on-filesystem
cases for all the paths in the index by holding a pointer to a
randomly chosen cache entry that is inside the directory (for its
ce->ce_name component). This pointer was not updated even when the
cache entry was removed from the index, leading to use after free.
This was fixed by recording the path for each directory instead of
borrowing cache entries and restructuring the API somewhat.
* dt/name-hash-dir-entry-fix:
name-hash: don't reuse cache_entry in dir_entry
After switching to use the tempfile module in commit f6ecc62d
(write_shared_index(): use tempfile module), no declarations from
sigchain.h are used in read-cache.c anymore. Thus, remove the #include.

Stop reusing cache_entry in dir_entry; doing so causes a
use-after-free bug.
During merges, we free entries that we no longer need in the
destination index. But those entries might have also been stored in
the dir_entry cache, and when a later call to add_to_index found them,
they would be used after being freed.
To prevent this, change dir_entry to store a copy of the name instead
of a pointer to a cache_entry. This entails some refactoring of code
that expects the cache_entry.

the initial patch, but this version does not use any of Keith's code.

The "lockfile" API has been rebuilt on top of a new "tempfile" API.
* mh/tempfile:
credential-cache--daemon: use tempfile module
credential-cache--daemon: delete socket from main()
gc: use tempfile module to handle gc.pid file
lock_repo_for_gc(): compute the path to "gc.pid" only once
diff: use tempfile module
setup_temporary_shallow(): use tempfile module
write_shared_index(): use tempfile module
register_tempfile(): new function to handle an existing temporary file
tempfile: add several functions for creating temporary files
prepare_tempfile_object(): new function, extracted from create_tempfile()
tempfile: a new module for handling temporary files
commit_lock_file(): use get_locked_file_path()
lockfile: add accessor get_lock_file_path()
lockfile: add accessors get_lock_file_fd() and get_lock_file_fp()
create_bundle(): duplicate file descriptor to avoid closing it twice
lockfile: move documentation to lockfile.h and lockfile.c
We are about to move those members, so change client code to read them
through accessor functions.

Hotfix for the 'untracked-cache' topic that is already in 'master'.
* nd/untracked-cache:
read-cache: fix untracked cache invalidation when split-index is used
The configuration reader/writer uses mmap(2) interface to access
the files; when we find a directory, it barfed with "Out of memory?".
* jk/diagnose-config-mmap-failure:
xmmap(): drop "Out of memory?"
config.c: rewrite ENODEV into EISDIR when mmap fails
config.c: avoid xmmap error messages
config.c: fix mmap leak when writing config
read-cache.c: drop PROT_WRITE from mmap of index
Before this change, t7063.17 fails. The actual action though happens at
t7063.16 where the entry "two" is added back to index after being
removed in the .13. Here we expect a directory invalidate at .16 and
none at .17 where untracked cache is refreshed. But things do not go as
expected when GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX is set.
The different behavior that happens at .16 when split index is used: the
entry "two", when deleted at .13, is simply marked "deleted". When .16
executes, the entry resurfaces from the version in base index. This
happens in merge_base_index() where add_index_entry() is called to add
"two" back from the base index.
This is where the bug comes from. The add_index_entry() is called with
ADD_CACHE_KEEP_CACHE_TREE flag because this version of "two" is not new,
it does not break either cache-tree or untracked cache. The code should
check this flag and not invalidate untracked cache. This causes a second
invalidation violates test expectation. The fix is obvious.

Once upon a time, git's in-memory representation of a cache
entry actually pointed to the mmap'd on-disk data. So in
520fc24 (Allow writing to the private index file mapping.,
2005-04-26), we specified PROT_WRITE so that we could tweak
the entries while we run (in our own MAP_PRIVATE copy-on-write
version, of course).
Later, 7a51ed6 (Make on-disk index representation separate
from in-core one, 2008-01-14) stopped doing this; we copy
the data into our in-core representation, and then drop the
mmap immediately. We can therefore drop the PROT_WRITE flag.
It's probably not hurting anything as it is, but it's
potentially confusing.
Note that we could also mark the mapping as "const" to
verify that we never write to it. However, we don't
typically do that for our other maps, as it then requires
casting to munmap() it.
