6aac70a870 simple-ipc: correct ifdefs when NO_PTHREADS is defined
Simple IPC always requires threads (in addition to various
platform-specific IPC support).  Fix the ifdefs in the Makefile
to define SUPPORTS_SIMPLE_IPC when appropriate.

Previously, the Unix version of the code would only verify that
Unix domain sockets were available.

This problem was reported here:

9160068ac6 msvc: avoid calling access("NUL", flags)
Apparently this is not supported with Microsoft's Universal C Runtime.
So let's not actually do that.

Instead, just return success because we _know_ that we expect the `NUL`
device to be present.

Side note: it is possible to turn off the "Null device driver" and
thereby disable `NUL`. Too many things are broken if this driver is
disabled, therefore it is not worth bothering to try to detect its
presence when `access()` is called.

5020774aef precompose_utf8: make precompose_string_if_needed() public
commit 5c327502 (MacOS: precompose_argv_prefix(), 2021-02-03) uses
the function precompose_string_if_needed() internally.  It is only
used from precompose_argv_prefix() and therefore static in
compat/precompose_utf8.c

Expose this function, it will be used in the next commit.

While there, allow passing a NULL pointer, which will return NULL.

7cd5dbcaba simple-ipc: add Unix domain socket implementation
Create Unix domain socket based implementation of "simple-ipc".

A set of `ipc_client` routines implement a client library to connect
to an `ipc_server` over a Unix domain socket, send a simple request,
and receive a single response.  Clients use blocking IO on the socket.

A set of `ipc_server` routines implement a thread pool to listen for
and concurrently service client connections.

The server creates a new Unix domain socket at a known location.  If a
socket already exists with that name, the server tries to determine if
another server is already listening on the socket or if the socket is
dead.  If socket is busy, the server exits with an error rather than
stealing the socket.  If the socket is dead, the server creates a new
one and starts up.

If while running, the server detects that its socket has been stolen
by another server, it automatically exits.

921846fa22 Merge branch 'jk/open-returns-eintr'
Work around platforms whose open() is reported to return EINTR (it
shouldn't, as we do our signals with SA_RESTART).

* jk/open-returns-eintr:
  config.mak.uname: enable OPEN_RETURNS_EINTR for macOS Big Sur
  Makefile: add OPEN_RETURNS_EINTR knob
2021-03-04 15:34:45 -08:00
Jeff King
2b08101204 Makefile: add OPEN_RETURNS_EINTR knob
On some platforms, open() reportedly returns EINTR when opening regular
files and we receive a signal (usually SIGALRM from our progress meter).
This shouldn't happen, as open() should be a restartable syscall, and we
specify SA_RESTART when setting up the alarm handler. So it may actually
be a kernel or libc bug for this to happen. But it has been reported on
at least one version of Linux (on a network filesystem):

  https://lore.kernel.org/git/c8061cce-71e4-17bd-a56a-a5fed93804da@neanderfunk.de/

as well as on macOS starting with Big Sur even on a regular filesystem.

We can work around it by retrying open() calls that get EINTR, just as
we do for read(), etc. Since we don't ever _want_ to interrupt an open()
call, we can get away with just redefining open, rather than insisting
all callsites use xopen().

We actually do have an xopen() wrapper already (and it even does this
retry, though there's no indication of it being an observed problem back
then; it seems simply to have been lifted from xread(), etc). But it is
used hardly anywhere, and isn't suitable for general use because it will
die() on error. In theory we could combine the two, but it's awkward to
do so because of the variable-args interface of open().

This patch adds a Makefile knob for enabling the workaround. It's not
enabled by default for any platforms in config.mak.uname yet, as we
don't have enough data to decide how common this is (I have not been
able to reproduce on either Linux or Big Sur myself). It may be worth
enabling preemptively anyway, since the cost is pretty low (if we don't
see an EINTR, it's just an extra conditional).

However, note that we must not enable this on Windows. It doesn't do
anything there, and the macro overrides the existing mingw_open()
redirection. I've added a preemptive #undef here in the mingw header
(which is processed first) to just quietly disable it (we could also
make it an #error, but there is little point in being so aggressive).

684dd4c2b4 checkout: fix bug that makes checkout follow symlinks in leading path
Before checking out a file, we have to confirm that all of its leading
components are real existing directories. And to reduce the number of
lstat() calls in this process, we cache the last leading path known to
contain only directories. However, when a path collision occurs (e.g.
when checking out case-sensitive files in case-insensitive file
systems), a cached path might have its file type changed on disk,
leaving the cache on an invalid state. Normally, this doesn't bring
any bad consequences as we usually check out files in index order, and
therefore, by the time the cached path becomes outdated, we no longer
need it anyway (because all files in that directory would have already
been written).

But, there are some users of the checkout machinery that do not always
follow the index order. In particular: checkout-index writes the paths
in the same order that they appear on the CLI (or stdin); and the
delayed checkout feature -- used when a long-running filter process
replies with "status=delayed" -- postpones the checkout of some entries,
thus modifying the checkout order.

When we have to check out an out-of-order entry and the lstat() cache is
invalid (due to a previous path collision), checkout_entry() may end up
using the invalid data and thrusting that the leading components are
real directories when, in reality, they are not. In the best case
scenario, where the directory was replaced by a regular file, the user
will get an error: "fatal: unable to create file 'foo/bar': Not a
directory". But if the directory was replaced by a symlink, checkout
could actually end up following the symlink and writing the file at a
wrong place, even outside the repository. Since delayed checkout is
affected by this bug, it could be used by an attacker to write
arbitrary files during the clone of a maliciously crafted repository.

Some candidate solutions considered were to disable the lstat() cache
during unordered checkouts or sort the entries before passing them to
the checkout machinery. But both ideas include some performance penalty
and they don't future-proof the code against new unordered use cases.

Instead, we now manually reset the lstat cache whenever we successfully
remove a directory. Note: We are not even checking whether the directory
was the same as the lstat cache points to because we might face a
scenario where the paths refer to the same location but differ due to
case folding, precomposed UTF-8 issues, or the presence of `..`
components in the path. Two regression tests, with case-collisions and
utf8-collisions, are also added for both checkout-index and delayed
checkout.

Note: to make the previously mentioned clone attack unfeasible, it would
be sufficient to reset the lstat cache only after the remove_subtree()
call inside checkout_entry(). This is the place where we would remove a
directory whose path collides with the path of another entry that we are
currently trying to check out (possibly a symlink). However, in the
interest of a thorough fix that does not leave Git open to
similar-but-not-identical attack vectors, we decided to intercept
all `rmdir()` calls in one fell swoop.

This addresses CVE-2021-21300.

5c327502db MacOS: precompose_argv_prefix()
The following sequence leads to a "BUG" assertion running under MacOS:

  DIR=git-test-restore-p
  Adiarnfd=$(printf 'A\314\210')
  DIRNAME=xx${Adiarnfd}yy
  mkdir $DIR &&
  cd $DIR &&
  git init &&
  mkdir $DIRNAME &&
  cd $DIRNAME &&
  echo "Initial" >file &&
  git add file &&
  echo "One more line" >>file &&
  echo y | git restore -p .

 Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/git-test-restore-p/.git/
 BUG: pathspec.c:495: error initializing pathspec_item
 Cannot close git diff-index --cached --numstat
 [snip]

The command `git restore` is run from a directory inside a Git repo.
Git needs to split the $CWD into 2 parts:
The path to the repo and "the rest", if any.
"The rest" becomes a "prefix" later used inside the pathspec code.

As an example, "/path/to/repo/dir-inside-repå" would determine
"/path/to/repo" as the root of the repo, the place where the
configuration file .git/config is found.

The rest becomes the prefix ("dir-inside-repå"), from where the
pathspec machinery expands the ".", more about this later.
If there is a decomposed form, (making the decomposing visible like this),
"dir-inside-rep°a" doesn't match "dir-inside-repå".

Git commands need to:

 (a) read the configuration variable "core.precomposeunicode"
 (b) precocompose argv[]
 (c) precompose the prefix, if there was any

The first commit,
76759c7dff "git on Mac OS and precomposed unicode"
addressed (a) and (b).

The call to precompose_argv() was added into parse-options.c,
because that seemed to be a good place when the patch was written.

Commands that don't use parse-options need to do (a) and (b) themselfs.

The commands `diff-files`, `diff-index`, `diff-tree` and `diff`
learned (a) and (b) in
commit 90a78b83e0 "diff: run arguments through precompose_argv"

Branch names (or refs in general) using decomposed code points
resulting in decomposed file names had been fixed in
commit 8e712ef6fc "Honor core.precomposeUnicode in more places"

The bug report from above shows 2 things:
- more commands need to handle precomposed unicode
- (c) should be implemented for all commands using pathspecs

Solution:
precompose_argv() now handles the prefix (if needed), and is renamed into
precompose_argv_prefix().

Inside this function the config variable core.precomposeunicode is read
into the global variable precomposed_unicode, as before.
This reading is skipped if precomposed_unicode had been read before.

The original patch for preocomposed unicode, 76759c7dff, placed
precompose_argv() into parse-options.c

Now add it into git.c::run_builtin() as well.  Existing precompose
calls in diff-files.c and others may become redundant, and if we
audit the callflows that reach these places to make sure that they
can never be reached without going through the new call added to
run_builtin(), we might be able to remove these existing ones.

But in this commit, we do not bother to do so and leave these
precompose callsites as they are.  Because precompose() is
idempotent and can be called on an already precomposed string
safely, this is safer than removing existing calls without fully
vetting the callflows.

There is certainly room for cleanups - this change intends to be a bug fix.
Cleanups needs more tests in e.g. t/t3910-mac-os-precompose.sh, and should
be done in future commits.

0c038fc65a compat/bswap.h: don't assume MSVC is little-endian
In 1af265f0 (compat/bswap.h: simplify MSVC endianness
detection, 2020-11-08) we attempted to simplify code by assuming MSVC
builds will be for little-endian machines, since only unusably old
versions of MSVC supported big-endian MIPS and m68k architectures.

However, it's possible that MSVC could be ported to build for a
big-endian architecture again, so the simplification wasn't as
future-proof as hoped.

So let's go back to the old way of detecting MSVC, and then checking
architecture from a list of little-endian architecture macros.

Note that MSVC does not treat ARM64 as bi-endian, so we can safely treat
it as little-endian.

Compilation fix around type punning.

c578e29ba0 bswap.h: drop unaligned loads
Our put_be32() routine and its variants (get_be32(), put_be64(), etc)
has two implementations: on some platforms we cast memory in place and
use nothl()/htonl(), which can cause unaligned memory access. And on
others, we pick out the individual bytes using bitshifts.

This introduces extra complexity, and sometimes causes compilers to
generate warnings about type-punning. And it's not clear there's any
performance advantage.

This split goes back to 660231aa97 (block-sha1: support for
architectures with memory alignment restrictions, 2009-08-12). The
unaligned versions were part of the original block-sha1 code in
d7c208a92e (Add new optimized C 'block-sha1' routines, 2009-08-05),
which says it is:

   Based on the mozilla SHA1 routine, but doing the input data accesses a
   word at a time and with 'htonl()' instead of loading bytes and shifting.

Back then, Linus provided timings versus the mozilla code which showed a
27% improvement:

  https://lore.kernel.org/git/alpine.LFD.2.01.0908051545000.3390@localhost.localdomain/

However, the unaligned loads were either not the useful part of that
speedup, or perhaps compilers and processors have changed since then.
Here are times for computing the sha1 of 4GB of random data, with and
without -DNO_UNALIGNED_LOADS (and BLK_SHA1=1, of course). This is with
gcc 10, -O2, and the processor is a Core i9-9880H.

  [stock]
  Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand
    Time (mean ± σ):      6.638 s ±  0.081 s    [User: 6.269 s, System: 0.368 s]
    Range (min … max):    6.550 s …  6.841 s    10 runs

  [-DNO_UNALIGNED_LOADS]
  Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand
    Time (mean ± σ):      6.418 s ±  0.015 s    [User: 6.058 s, System: 0.360 s]
    Range (min … max):    6.394 s …  6.447 s    10 runs

And here's the same test run on an AMD A8-7600, using gcc 8.

  [stock]
  Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand
    Time (mean ± σ):     11.721 s ±  0.113 s    [User: 10.761 s, System: 0.951 s]
    Range (min … max):   11.509 s … 11.861 s    10 runs

  [-DNO_UNALIGNED_LOADS]
  Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand
    Time (mean ± σ):     11.744 s ±  0.066 s    [User: 10.807 s, System: 0.928 s]
    Range (min … max):   11.637 s … 11.863 s    10 runs

So the unaligned loads don't seem to help much, and actually make things
worse. It's possible there are platforms where they provide more
benefit, but:

  - the non-x86 platforms for which we use this code are old and obscure
    (powerpc and s390).

  - the main caller that cares about performance is block-sha1. But
    these days it is rarely used anyway, in favor of sha1dc (which is
    already much slower, and nobody seems to have cared that much).

Let's just drop unaligned versions entirely in the name of simplicity.

680e0b4524 mingw: improve performance of mingw_unlink()
Update mingw_unlink() to first try to delete the file with existing
permissions before trying to force it.

Windows throws an error when trying to delete a read-only file.  The
mingw_unlink() compatibility wrapper always tries to _wchmod(666) the
file before calling _wunlink() to avoid that error.  However, since
most files in the worktree are already writable, this is usually
wasted effort.

Update mingw_unlink() to just call DeleteFileW() directly and if that
succeeds return.  If that fails, fall back into the existing code path
to update the permissions and use _wunlink() to get the existing
error code mapping.

ef8d7ac42a strvec: convert more callers away from argv_array name
We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec
consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once,
or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits.
Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable
to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different
names is OK).

This patch converts remaining files from the first half of the alphabet,
to keep the diff to a manageable size.

The conversion was done purely mechanically with:

  git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' |
  xargs perl -i -pe '
    s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g;
    s/argv_array/strvec/g;
  '

and then selectively staging files with "git add '[abcdefghjkl]*'".
We'll deal with any indentation/style fallouts separately.

In 897d68e7af (Makefile: use curl-config --cflags, 2020-03-26), we
taught the build process to use `curl-config --cflags` to make sure that
it can find cURL's headers.

In the MSVC build, this is completely bogus because we're running in a
Git for Windows SDK whose `curl-config` supports the _GCC_ build.

Let's just ignore each and every `-I<path>` option where `<path>` points
to GCC/Clang specific headers.

84b0115f0d compat: remove gmtime
ccd469450a (date.c: switch to reentrant {gm,local}time_r, 2019-11-28)
removes the only gmtime() call we had and moves to gmtime_r() which
doesn't have the same portability problems.

Remove the compat gmtime code since it is no longer needed, and confirm
by successfull running t4212 in FreeBSD 9.3 amd64 (the oldest I could
get a hold off).

Further work might be needed to ensure 32bit time_t systems (like FreeBSD
i386) will handle correctly the overflows tested in t4212, but that is
orthogonal to this change, and it doesn't change the current behaviour
as neither gmtime() or gmtime_r() will ever return NULL on those systems
because time_t is unsigned.

3bc1f9e48c compat/regex: move stdlib.h up in inclusion chain
In Linux with musl libc, we have this inclusion chain:

compat/regex/regex.c:69
`-> compat/regex/regex_internal.h
   `-> /usr/include/stdlib.h
      `-> /usr/include/features.h
      `-> /usr/include/alloca.h

In that inclusion chain, `<features.h>` claims it's _BSD_SOURCE
compatible when it's NOT asked to be either
{_POSIX,_GNU,_XOPEN,_BSD}_SOURCE, or __STRICT_ANSI__.
And, `<stdlib.h>` will include `<alloca.h>` to be compatible with
software written for GNU and BSD. Thus, redefine `alloca` macro,
which was defined before at compat/regex/regex.c:66.

Considering this is only compat code, we've taken from other project,
it's not our business to decide which source should we adhere to.

Include `<stdlib.h>` early to prevent the redefinition of alloca.
This also remove a potential warning about alloca not defined on:
	#undef alloca

69bcbbceb7 bugreport: add compiler info
To help pinpoint the source of a regression, it is useful to know some
info about the compiler which the user's Git client was built with. By
adding a generic get_compiler_info() in 'compat/' we can choose which
relevant information to share per compiler; to get started, let's
demonstrate the version of glibc if the user built with 'gcc'.

709df95b78 help: move list_config_help to builtin/help
Starting in 3ac68a93fd, help.o began to depend on builtin/branch.o,
builtin/clean.o, and builtin/config.o. This meant that help.o was
unusable outside of the context of the main Git executable.

To make help.o usable by other commands again, move list_config_help()
into builtin/help.c (where it makes sense to assume other builtin libraries
are present).

When command-list.h is included but a member is not used, we start to
hear a compiler warning. Since the config list is generated in a fairly
different way than the command list, and since commands and config
options are semantically different, move the config list into its own
header and move the generator into its own script and build rule.

For reasons explained in 976aaedc (msvc: add a Makefile target to
pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, 2019-07-29), some build
artifacts we consider non-source files cannot be generated in the
Visual Studio environment, and we already have some Makefile tweaks
to help Visual Studio to use generated command-list.h header file.
Do the same to a new generated file, config-list.h, introduced by
this change.

23eafd924a mingw: cope with the Isilon network file system
On certain network filesystems (currently encountered with Isilon, but
in theory more network storage solutions could be causing the same
issue), when the directory in question is missing,
`raceproof_create_file()` fails with an `ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER`
instead of an `ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND`.

Since it is highly unlikely that we produce such an error by mistake
(the parameters we pass are fairly benign), we can be relatively certain
that the directory is missing in this instance. So let's just translate
that error automagically.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1345.
