Many of our programs consider that it is OK to release dynamic
storage that is used throughout the life of the program by simply
exiting, but this makes it harder to leak detection tools to avoid
reporting false positives. Plug many existing leaks and introduce
a mechanism for developers to mark that the region of memory
pointed by a pointer is not lost/leaking to help these tools.

add UNLEAK annotation for reducing leak false positives

refs/files-backend: add `refname`, not "HEAD", to list

An earlier patch rewrote `split_symref_update()` to add a copy of a
string to a string list instead of adding the original string. That was
so that the original string could be freed in a later patch, but it is
also conceptually cleaner, since now all calls to `string_list_insert()`
and `string_list_append()` add `update->refname`. --- Except a literal
"HEAD" is added in `split_head_update()`.

Restructure `split_head_update()` in the same way as the earlier patch
did for `split_symref_update()`. This does not correct any practical
problem, but makes things conceptually cleaner. The downside is a call
to `string_list_has_string()`, which should be relatively cheap.

refs/files-backend: add longer-scoped copy of string to list

split_symref_update() receives a string-pointer `referent` and adds it
to the list of `affected_refnames`. The list simply holds on to the
pointers it is given, it does not copy the strings and it does not ever
free them. The `referent` string in split_symref_update() belongs to a
string buffer in the caller. After we return, the string will be leaked.

In the next patch, we want to properly release the string buffer in the
caller, but we can't safely do so until we've made sure that
`affected_refnames` will not be holding on to a pointer to the string.
We could configure the list to handle its own resources, but it would
mean some alloc/free-churning. The list is already handling other
strings (through other code paths) which we do not need to worry about,
and we'd be memory-churning those strings too, completely unnecessary.

Observe that split_symref_update() creates a `new_update`-object through
ref_transaction_add_update(), after which `new_update->refname` is a
copy of `referent`. The difference is, this copy will be freed, and it
will be freed *after* `affected_refnames` has been cleared.

Rearrange the handling of `referent`, so that we don't add it directly
to `affected_refnames`. Instead, first just check whether `referent`
exists in the string list, and later add `new_update->refname`.

files_ref_store: use a transaction to update packed... Michael Haggerty Fri, 8 Sep 2017 13:51:51 +0000 (15:51 +0200)

files_ref_store: use a transaction to update packed refs

When processing a `files_ref_store` transaction, it is sometimes
necessary to delete some references from the "packed-refs" file. Do
that using a reference transaction conducted against the
`packed_ref_store`.

This change further decouples `files_ref_store` from
`packed_ref_store`. It also fixes multiple problems, including the two
revealed by test cases added in the previous commit.

First, the old code didn't obtain the `packed-refs` lock until
`files_transaction_finish()`. This means that a failure to acquire the
`packed-refs` lock (e.g., due to contention with another process)
wasn't detected until it was too late (problems like this are supposed
to be detected in the "prepare" phase). The new code acquires the
`packed-refs` lock in `files_transaction_prepare()`, the same stage of
the processing when the loose reference locks are being acquired,
removing another reason why the "prepare" phase might succeed and the
"finish" phase might nevertheless fail.

Second, the old code deleted the loose version of a reference before
deleting any packed version of the same reference. This left a moment
when another process might think that the packed version of the
reference is current, which is incorrect. (Even worse, the packed
version of the reference can be arbitrarily old, and might even point
at an object that has since been garbage-collected.)

Third, if a reference deletion fails to acquire the `packed-refs` lock
altogether, then the old code might leave the repository in the
incorrect state (possibly corrupt) described in the previous
paragraph.

Now we activate the new "packed-refs" file (sans any references that
are being deleted) *before* deleting the corresponding loose
references. But we hold the "packed-refs" lock until after the loose
references have been finalized, thus preventing a simultaneous
"pack-refs" process from packing the loose version of the reference in
the time gap, which would otherwise defeat our attempt to delete it.

t1404: demonstrate two problems with reference transactions

Currently, a loose reference is deleted even before locking the
`packed-refs` file, let alone deleting any packed version of the
reference. This leads to two problems, demonstrated by two new tests:

* While a reference is being deleted, other processes might see the
old, packed value of the reference for a moment before the packed
version is deleted. Normally this would be hard to observe, but we
can prolong the window by locking the `packed-refs` file externally
before running `update-ref`, then unlocking it before `update-ref`'s
attempt to acquire the lock times out.

* If the `packed-refs` file is locked so long that `update-ref` fails
to lock it, then the reference can be left permanently in the
incorrect state described in the previous point.

In a moment, both problems will be fixed.

packed-backend: don't adjust the reference count on lock/unlock

The old code incremented the packed ref cache reference count when
acquiring the packed-refs lock, and decremented the count when
releasing the lock. This is unnecessary because:

* Another process cannot change the packed-refs file because it is
locked.

* When we ourselves change the packed-refs file, we do so by first
modifying the packed ref-cache, and then writing the data from the
ref-cache to disk. So the packed ref-cache remains fresh because any
changes that we plan to make to the file are made in the cache first
anyway.

So there is no reason for the cache to become stale.

Moreover, the extra reference count causes a problem if we
intentionally clear the packed refs cache, as we sometimes need to do
if we change the cache in anticipation of writing a change to disk,
but then the write to disk fails. In that case, `packed_refs_unlock()`
would have no easy way to find the cache whose reference count it
needs to decrement.

This whole issue will soon become moot due to upcoming changes that
avoid changing the in-memory cache as part of updating the packed-refs
on disk, but this change makes that transition easier.

shortlog: skip format/parse roundtrip for internal... Jeff King Fri, 8 Sep 2017 09:21:27 +0000 (05:21 -0400)

shortlog: skip format/parse roundtrip for internal traversal

The original git-shortlog command parsed the output of
git-log, and the logic went something like this:

1. Read stdin looking for "author" lines.

2. Parse the identity into its name/email bits.

3. Apply mailmap to the name/email.

4. Reformat the identity into a single buffer that is our
"key" for grouping entries (either a name by default,
or "name <email>" if --email was given).

The first part happens in read_from_stdin(), and the other
three steps are part of insert_one_record().

When we do an internal traversal, we just swap out the stdin
read in step 1 for reading the commit objects ourselves.
Prior to 2db6b83d18 (shortlog: replace hand-parsing of
author with pretty-printer, 2016-01-18), that made sense; we
still had to parse the ident in the commit message.

But after that commit, we use pretty.c's "%an <%ae>" to get
the author ident (for simplicity). Which means that the
pretty printer is doing a parse/format under the hood, and
then we parse the result, apply the mailmap, and format the
result again.

Instead, we can just ask pretty.c to do all of those steps
for us (including the mailmap via "%aN <%aE>", and not
formatting the address when --email is missing).

And then we can push steps 2-4 into read_from_stdin(). This
speeds up "git shortlog -ns" on linux.git by about 3%, and
eliminates a leak in insert_one_record() of the namemailbuf
strbuf.

add UNLEAK annotation for reducing leak false positivesJeff King Fri, 8 Sep 2017 06:38:41 +0000 (02:38 -0400)

add UNLEAK annotation for reducing leak false positives

It's a common pattern in git commands to allocate some
memory that should last for the lifetime of the program and
then not bother to free it, relying on the OS to throw it
away.

This keeps the code simple, and it's fast (we don't waste
time traversing structures or calling free at the end of the
program). But it also triggers warnings from memory-leak
checkers like valgrind or LSAN. They know that the memory
was still allocated at program exit, but they don't know
_when_ the leaked memory stopped being useful. If it was
early in the program, then it's probably a real and
important leak. But if it was used right up until program
exit, it's not an interesting leak and we'd like to suppress
it so that we can see the real leaks.

This patch introduces an UNLEAK() macro that lets us do so.
To understand its design, let's first look at some of the
alternatives.

Unfortunately the suppression systems offered by
leak-checking tools don't quite do what we want. A
leak-checker basically knows two things:

1. Which blocks were allocated via malloc, and the
callstack during the allocation.

2. Which blocks were left un-freed at the end of the
program (and which are unreachable, but more on that
later).

Their suppressions work by mentioning the function or
callstack of a particular allocation, and marking it as OK
to leak. So imagine you have code like this:

int cmd_foo(...)
{
/* this allocates some memory */
char *p = some_function();
printf("%s", p);
return 0;
}

You can say "ignore allocations from some_function(),
they're not leaks". But that's not right. That function may
be called elsewhere, too, and we would potentially want to
know about those leaks.

So you can say "ignore the callstack when main calls
some_function". That works, but your annotations are
brittle. In this case it's only two functions, but you can
imagine that the actual allocation is much deeper. If any of
the intermediate code changes, you have to update the
suppression.

What we _really_ want to say is that "the value assigned to
p at the end of the function is not a real leak". But
leak-checkers can't understand that; they don't know about
"p" in the first place.

However, we can do something a little bit tricky if we make
some assumptions about how leak-checkers work. They
generally don't just report all un-freed blocks. That would
report even globals which are still accessible when the
leak-check is run. Instead they take some set of memory
(like BSS) as a root and mark it as "reachable". Then they
scan the reachable blocks for anything that looks like a
pointer to a malloc'd block, and consider that block
reachable. And then they scan those blocks, and so on,
transitively marking anything reachable from a global as
"not leaked" (or at least leaked in a different category).

So we can mark the value of "p" as reachable by putting it
into a variable with program lifetime. One way to do that is
to just mark "p" as static. But that actually affects the
run-time behavior if the function is called twice (you
aren't likely to call main() twice, but some of our cmd_*()
functions are called from other commands).

Instead, we can trick the leak-checker by putting the value
into _any_ reachable bytes. This patch keeps a global
linked-list of bytes copied from "unleaked" variables. That
list is reachable even at program exit, which confers
recursive reachability on whatever values we unleak.

In other words, you can do:

int cmd_foo(...)
{
char *p = some_function();
printf("%s", p);
UNLEAK(p);
return 0;
}

to annotate "p" and suppress the leak report.

But wait, couldn't we just say "free(p)"? In this toy
example, yes. But UNLEAK()'s byte-copying strategy has
several advantages over actually freeing the memory:

1. It's recursive across structures. In many cases our "p"
is not just a pointer, but a complex struct whose
fields may have been allocated by a sub-function. And
in some cases (e.g., dir_struct) we don't even have a
function which knows how to free all of the struct
members.

By marking the struct itself as reachable, that confers
reachability on any pointers it contains (including those
found in embedded structs, or reachable by walking
heap blocks recursively.

2. It works on cases where we're not sure if the value is
allocated or not. For example:

char *p = argc > 1 ? argv[1] : some_function();

It's safe to use UNLEAK(p) here, because it's not
freeing any memory. In the case that we're pointing to
argv here, the reachability checker will just ignore
our bytes.

3. Likewise, it works even if the variable has _already_
been freed. We're just copying the pointer bytes. If
the block has been freed, the leak-checker will skip
over those bytes as uninteresting.

4. Because it's not actually freeing memory, you can
UNLEAK() before we are finished accessing the variable.
This is helpful in cases like this:

char *p = some_function();
return another_function(p);

Writing this with free() requires:

int ret;
char *p = some_function();
ret = another_function(p);
free(p);
return ret;

But with unleak we can just write:

char *p = some_function();
UNLEAK(p);
return another_function(p);

This patch adds the UNLEAK() macro and enables it
automatically when Git is compiled with SANITIZE=leak. In
normal builds it's a noop, so we pay no runtime cost.

It also adds some UNLEAK() annotations to show off how the
feature works. On top of other recent leak fixes, these are
enough to get t0000 and t0001 to pass when compiled with
LSAN.

Note the case in commit.c which actually converts a
strbuf_release() into an UNLEAK. This code was already
non-leaky, but the free didn't do anything useful, since
we're exiting. Converting it to an annotation means that
non-leak-checking builds pay no runtime cost. The cost is
minimal enough that it's probably not worth going on a
crusade to convert these kinds of frees to UNLEAKS. I did it
here for consistency with the "sb" leak (though it would
have been equally correct to go the other way, and turn them
both into strbuf_release() calls).

merge-recursive: change current file dir string_lists... Kevin Willford Thu, 7 Sep 2017 16:25:56 +0000 (10:25 -0600)

merge-recursive: change current file dir string_lists to hashmap

The code was using two string_lists, one for the directories and
one for the files. The code never checks the lists independently
so we should be able to only use one list. The string_list also
is a O(log n) for lookup and insertion. Switching this to use a
hashmap will give O(1) which will save some time when there are
millions of paths that will be checked.

builtin/merge: honor commit-msg hook for mergesStefan Beller Thu, 7 Sep 2017 22:04:29 +0000 (15:04 -0700)

builtin/merge: honor commit-msg hook for merges

Similar to 65969d43d1 (merge: honor prepare-commit-msg hook, 2011-02-14)
merge should also honor the commit-msg hook: When a merge is stopped due
to conflicts or --no-commit, the subsequent commit calls the commit-msg
hook. However, it is not called after a clean merge. Fix this
inconsistency by invoking the hook after clean merges as well.

This change is motivated by Gerrit's commit-msg hook to install a ChangeId
trailer into the commit message. Without such a ChangeId, Gerrit refuses
to accept any commit by default, such that the inconsistency of (not)
running the commit-msg hook between commit and merge leads to confusion
and might block people from getting their work done.

As the githooks man page is very vocal about the possibility of skipping
the commit-msg hook via the --no-verify option, implement the option
in merge, too.

'git merge --continue' is currently implemented as calling cmd_commit
with no further arguments. This works for most other merge related options,
such as demonstrated via the --allow-unrelated-histories flag in the
test. The --no-verify option however is not remembered across invocations
of git-merge. Originally the author assumed an alternative in which the
'git merge --continue' command accepts the --no-verify flag, but that
opens up the discussion which flags are allows to the continued merge
command and which must be given in the first invocation.

pull: honor submodule.recurse config optionNicolas Morey-Chaisemartin Wed, 6 Sep 2017 06:48:09 +0000 (08:48 +0200)

pull: honor submodule.recurse config option

"git pull" supports a --recurse-submodules option but does not parse the
submodule.recurse configuration item to set the default for that option.
Meanwhile "git fetch" does support submodule.recurse, producing
confusing behavior: when submodule.recurse is enabled, "git pull"
recursively fetches submodules but does not update them after fetch.

Handle submodule.recurse in "git pull" to fix this.

pull: fix cli and config option parsing order

pull parses first the cli options and then the config option.
The expected behavior is the other way around, so that config
options can not override the cli ones.

This patch changes the parsing order so config options are
parsed first.
