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)

0a288d1ee9 wrapper.c: consistently quote filenames in error messages
All other error messages in the file use quotes around the file name.

This change removes two translations as "could not write to '%s'" and
"could not close '%s'" are already translated and these two are the only
occurrences without quotes.

06f46f237a avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) != len" pattern
The return value of write_in_full() is either "-1", or the
requested number of bytes[1]. If we make a partial write
before seeing an error, we still return -1, not a partial
value. This goes back to f6aa66cb95 (write_in_full: really
write in full or return error on disk full., 2007-01-11).

So checking anything except "was the return value negative"
is pointless. And there are a couple of reasons not to do
so:

  1. It can do a funny signed/unsigned comparison. If your
     "len" is signed (e.g., a size_t) then the compiler will
     promote the "-1" to its unsigned variant.

     This works out for "!= len" (unless you really were
     trying to write the maximum size_t bytes), but is a
     bug if you check "< len" (an example of which was fixed
     recently in config.c).

     We should avoid promoting the mental model that you
     need to check the length at all, so that new sites are
     not tempted to copy us.

  2. Checking for a negative value is shorter to type,
     especially when the length is an expression.

  3. Linus says so. In d34cf19b89 (Clean up write_in_full()
     users, 2007-01-11), right after the write_in_full()
     semantics were changed, he wrote:

       I really wish every "write_in_full()" user would just
       check against "<0" now, but this fixes the nasty and
       stupid ones.

     Appeals to authority aside, this makes it clear that
     writing it this way does not have an intentional
     benefit. It's a historical curiosity that we never
     bothered to clean up (and which was undoubtedly
     cargo-culted into new sites).

So let's convert these obviously-correct cases (this
includes write_str_in_full(), which is just a wrapper for
write_in_full()).

[1] A careful reader may notice there is one way that
    write_in_full() can return a different value. If we ask
    write() to write N bytes and get a return value that is
    _larger_ than N, we could return a larger total. But
    besides the fact that this would imply a totally broken
    version of write(), it would already invoke undefined
    behavior. Our internal remaining counter is an unsigned
    size_t, which means that subtracting too many byte will
    wrap it around to a very large number. So we'll instantly
    begin reading off the end of the buffer, trying to write
    gigabytes (or petabytes) of data.

93dd544f54 Merge branch 'jc/noent-notdir'
Our code often opens a path to an optional file, to work on its
contents when we can successfully open it.  We can ignore a failure
to open if such an optional file does not exist, but we do want to
report a failure in opening for other reasons (e.g. we got an I/O
error, or the file is there, but we lack the permission to open).

The exact errors we need to ignore are ENOENT (obviously) and
ENOTDIR (less obvious).  Instead of repeating comparison of errno
with these two constants, introduce a helper function to do so.

There are codepaths that only check ENOENT, and it is possible that
some of them should be checking both.  Updating them is kept out of
this step deliberately, as we do not want to change behaviour in this
step.

52563d7ecc write_file: add pointer+len variant
There are many callsites which could use write_file, but for
which it is a little awkward because they have a strbuf or
other pointer/len combo. Specifically:

 1. write_file() takes a format string, so we have to use
    "%s" or "%.*s", which are ugly.

 2. Using any form of "%s" does not handle embedded NULs in
    the output. That probably doesn't matter for our
    call-sites, but it's nicer not to have to worry.

 3. It's less efficient; we format into another strbuf
    just to do the write. That's probably not measurably
    slow for our uses, but it's simply inelegant.

We can fix this by providing a helper to write out the
formatted buffer, and just calling it from write_file().

Note that we don't do the usual "complete with a newline"
that write_file does. If the caller has their own buffer,
there's a reasonable chance they're doing something more
complicated than a single line, and they can call
strbuf_complete_line() themselves.

We could go even further and add strbuf_write_file(), but it
doesn't save much:

  -  write_file_buf(path, sb.buf, sb.len);
  +  strbuf_write_file(&sb, path);

It would also be somewhat asymmetric with strbuf_read_file,
which actually returns errors rather than dying (and the
error handling is most of the benefit of write_file() in the
first place).

ef22318cff write_file: drop "gently" form
There are no callers left of write_file_gently(). Let's drop
it, as it doesn't seem likely for new callers to be added
(since its inception, the only callers who wanted the gentle
form generally just died immediately themselves, and have
since been converted).

While we're there, let's also drop the "int" return from
write_file, as it is never meaningful (in the non-gentle
form, we always either die or return 0).

ef1cf0167a xwrite: poll on non-blocking FDs
write(2) can hit the same EAGAIN/EWOULDBLOCK errors as read(2),
so busy-looping on a non-blocking FD is a waste of resources.

Currently, I do not know of a way for this happen:

* the NonBlocking directive in systemd does not apply to stdin,
  stdout, or stderr.

* xinetd provides no way to set the non-blocking flag at all

But theoretically, it's possible a careless C10K HTTP server
could use pipe2(..., O_NONBLOCK) to setup a pipe for
git-http-backend with only the intent to use non-blocking reads;
but accidentally leave non-blocking set on the write end passed
as stdout to git-upload-pack.

e7792a74bc harden REALLOC_ARRAY and xcalloc against size_t overflow
REALLOC_ARRAY inherently involves a multiplication which can
overflow size_t, resulting in a much smaller buffer than we
think we've allocated. We can easily harden it by using
st_mult() to check for overflow.  Likewise, we can add
ALLOC_ARRAY to do the same thing for xmalloc calls.

xcalloc() should already be fine, because it takes the two
factors separately, assuming the system calloc actually
checks for overflow. However, before we even hit the system
calloc(), we do our memory_limit_check, which involves a
multiplication. Let's check for overflow ourselves so that
this limit cannot be bypassed.

1079c4be0b xread: poll on non blocking fds
The man page of read(2) says:

  EAGAIN The file descriptor fd refers to a file other than a socket
	 and has been marked nonblocking (O_NONBLOCK), and the read
	 would block.

  EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK
	 The file descriptor fd refers to a socket and has been marked
	 nonblocking (O_NONBLOCK), and the read would block.  POSIX.1-2001
	 allows either error to be returned for this case, and does not
	 require these constants to have the same value, so a portable
	 application should check for both possibilities.

If we get an EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK the fd must have set O_NONBLOCK.
As the intent of xread is to read as much as possible either until the
fd is EOF or an actual error occurs, we can ease the feeder of the fd
by not spinning the whole time, but rather wait for it politely by not
busy waiting.

We should not care if the call to poll failed, as we're in an infinite
loop and can only get out with the correct read().

e850194c83 ident: make xgetpwuid_self() a static local helper
This function is defined in wrapper.c, but nobody besides
ident.c uses it. And nobody is likely to in the future,
either, as anything that cares about the user's name should
be going through the ident code.

Moving it here is a cleanup of the global namespace, but it
will also enable further cleanups inside ident.c.

7b03c89ebd add xsnprintf helper function
There are a number of places in the code where we call
sprintf(), with the assumption that the output will fit into
the buffer. In many cases this is true (e.g., formatting a
number into a large buffer), but it is hard to tell
immediately from looking at the code. It would be nice if we
had some run-time check to make sure that our assumption is
correct (and to communicate to readers of the code that we
are not blindly calling sprintf, but have actually thought
about this case).

This patch introduces xsnprintf, which behaves just like
snprintf, except that it dies whenever the output is
truncated. This acts as a sort of assert() for these cases,
which can help find places where the assumption is violated
(as opposed to truncating and proceeding, which may just
silently give a wrong answer).

e7ffa38c6e write_file_v(): do not leave incomplete line at the end
All existing callers to this function use it to produce a text file
or an empty file, and a new callsite that mimick them must end their
payload with a LF.  If they forget to do so, the resulting file will
end with an incomplete line.

Teach write_file_v() to complete the incomplete line, if exists, so
that the callers do not have to.

With this, the caller-side fix in builtin/am.c becomes unnecessary.

12d6ce1dba write_file(): drop "fatal" parameter
All callers except three passed 1 for the "fatal" parameter to ask
this function to die upon error, but to a casual reader of the code,
it was not all obvious what that 1 meant.  Instead, split the
function into two based on a common write_file_v() that takes the
flag, introduce write_file_gently() as a new way to attempt creating
a file without dying on error, and make three callers to call it.

260eec2927 wrapper: implement xfopen()
A common usage pattern of fopen() is to check if it succeeded, and die()
if it failed:

	FILE *fp = fopen(path, "w");
	if (!fp)
		die_errno(_("could not open '%s' for writing"), path);

Implement a wrapper function xfopen() for the above, so that we can save
a few lines of code and make the die() messages consistent.

3ff53df7b4 wrapper: implement xopen()
A common usage pattern of open() is to check if it was successful, and
die() if it was not:

	int fd = open(path, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT, 0777);
	if (fd < 0)
		die_errno(_("Could not open '%s' for writing."), path);

Implement a wrapper function xopen() that does the above so that we can
save a few lines of code, and make the die() messages consistent.

a983e6ac58 xread/xwrite: clip MAX_IO_SIZE to SSIZE_MAX
Since 0b6806b9 (xread, xwrite: limit size of IO to 8MB, 2013-08-20),
we chomp our calls to read(2) and write(2) into chunks of
MAX_IO_SIZE bytes (8 MiB), because a large IO results in a bad
latency when the program needs to be killed.  This also brought our
IO below SSIZE_MAX, which is a limit POSIX allows read(2) and
write(2) to fail when the IO size exceeds it, for OS X, where a
problem was originally reported.

However, there are other systems that define SSIZE_MAX smaller than
our default, and feeding 8 MiB to underlying read(2)/write(2) would
fail.  Make sure we clip our calls to the lower limit as well.
