When we deactivate a tempfile, we also have to clean up the
"filename" strbuf. Let's pull this out into its own function
to keep the logic in one place (which will become more
important when a future patch makes it more complicated).
Note that we can use the same function when deactivating an
object that _isn't_ actually active yet (like when we hit an
error creating a tempfile). These callsites don't currently
reset the "active" flag to 0, but it's OK to do so (it's
just a noop for these cases).

Compared to die(), using BUG() triggers abort(). That may
give us an actual coredump, which should make it easier to
get a stack trace. And since the programming error for these
assertions is not in the functions themselves but in their
callers, such a stack trace is needed to actually find the
source of the bug.
In addition, abort() raises SIGABRT, which is more likely to
be caught by our test suite.

The tempfile functions all take pointers to tempfile
objects, but do not check whether the argument is NULL.
This isn't a big deal in practice, since the lifetime of any
tempfile object is defined to last for the whole program. So
even if we try to call delete_tempfile() on an
already-deleted tempfile, our "active" check will tell us
that it's a noop.
In preparation for transitioning to a new system that
loosens the "tempfile objects can never be freed" rule,
let's tighten up our active checks:
1. A NULL pointer is now defined as "inactive" (so it will
BUG for most functions, but works as a silent noop for
things like delete_tempfile).
2. Functions should always do the "active" check before
looking at any of the struct fields.

tempfile: prefer is_tempfile_active to bare access
The tempfile code keeps an "active" flag, and we have a
number of assertions to make sure that the objects are being
used in the right order. Most of these directly check
"active" rather than using the is_tempfile_active()
accessor.
Let's prefer using the accessor, in preparation for it
growing more complicated logic (like checking for NULL).

Since the lockfile code is based on the tempfile code, it
has some of the same problems, including that close_lock_file()
erases the tempfile's filename buf, making it hard for the
caller to write a good error message.
In practice this comes up less for lockfiles than for
straight tempfiles, since we usually just report the
refname. But there is at least one buggy case in
write_ref_to_lockfile(). Besides, given the coupling between
the lockfile and tempfile modules, it's less confusing if
their close() functions have the same semantics.
Just as the previous commit did for close_tempfile(), let's
teach close_lock_file() and its wrapper close_ref() not to
rollback on error. And just as before, we'll give them new
"gently" names to catch any new callers that are added.
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
When close_tempfile() fails, we delete the tempfile and
reset the fields of the tempfile struct. This makes it
easier for callers to return without cleaning up, but it
also makes this common pattern:
if (close_tempfile(tempfile))
return error_errno("error closing %s", tempfile->filename.buf);
wrong, because the "filename" field has been reset after the
failed close. And it's not easy to fix, as in many cases we
don't have another copy of the filename (e.g., if it was
created via one of the mks_tempfile functions, and we just
have the original template string).
Let's drop the feature that a failed close automatically
deletes the file. This puts the burden on the caller to do
the deletion themselves, but this isn't that big a deal.
Callers which do:
if (write(...) || close_tempfile(...)) {
delete_tempfile(...);
return -1;
}
already had to call delete when the write() failed, and so
aren't affected. Likewise, any caller which just calls die()
in the error path is OK; we'll delete the tempfile during
the atexit handler.
Because this patch changes the semantics of close_tempfile()
without changing its signature, all callers need to be
manually checked and converted to the new scheme. This patch
covers all in-tree callers, but there may be others for
not-yet-merged topics. To catch these, we rename the
function to close_tempfile_gently(), which will attract
compile-time attention to new callers. (Technically the
original could be considered "gentle" already in that it
didn't die() on errors, but this one is even more so).

If close_tempfile() encounters an error, then it deletes the
tempfile and resets the "struct tempfile". But many code
paths ignore the return value and continue to use the
tempfile. Instead, we should generally treat this the same
as a write() error.
Note that in the postimage of some of these cases our error
message will be bogus after a failed close because we look
at tempfile->filename (either directly or via get_tempfile_path).
But after the failed close resets the tempfile object, this
is guaranteed to be the empty string. That will be addressed
in a future patch (because there are many more cases of the
same problem than just these instances).
Note also in the hunk in gpg-interface.c that it's fine to
call delete_tempfile() in the error path, even if
close_tempfile() failed and already deleted the file. The
tempfile code is smart enough to know the second deletion is
a noop.

verify_signed_buffer: prefer close_tempfile() to close()
We do a manual close() on the descriptor provided to us by
mks_tempfile. But this runs contrary to the advice in
tempfile.h, which notes that you should always use
close_tempfile(). Otherwise the descriptor may be reused
without the tempfile object knowing it, and the later call
to delete_tempfile() could close a random descriptor.

setup_temporary_shallow: move tempfile struct into function
The setup_temporary_shallow() function creates a temporary
file, but we never access the tempfile struct outside of the
function. This is OK, since it means we'll just clean up the
tempfile on exit. But we can simplify the code a bit by
moving the global tempfile struct to the only function in
which it's used.
Note that it must remain "static" due to tempfile.c's
requirement that tempfile storage never goes away until
program exit.

setup_temporary_shallow: avoid using inactive tempfile
When there are no shallow entries to write, we skip creating
the tempfile entirely and try to return the empty string.
But we do so by calling get_tempfile_path() on the inactive
tempfile object. This will trigger an assertion that kills
the program. The bug was introduced by 6e122b449b
(setup_temporary_shallow(): use tempfile module,
2015-08-10). But nobody seems to have noticed since then
because we do not end up calling this function at all when
there are no shallow items. In other words, this code path
is completely unexercised.
Since the tempfile object is a static global, it _is_
possible that we call the function twice, writing out
shallow info the first time and then "reusing" our tempfile
object the second time. But:
1. It seems unlikely that this was the intent, as hitting
this code path would imply somebody clearing the
shallow_info list between calls.
And if somebody _did_ call the function multiple times
without clearing the shallow_info list, we'd hit a
different BUG for trying to reuse an already-active
tempfile.
2. I verified by code inspection that the function is only
called once per program. And also replacing this code
with a BUG() and running the test suite demonstrates
that it is not triggered there.
So we could probably just replace this with an assertion and
confirm that it's never called. However, the original intent
does seem to be that you _could_ call it when the
shallow_info is empty. And that's easy enough to do; since
the return value doesn't need to point to a writable buffer,
we can just return a string literal.

If we failed to write our new index file, we rollback our
lockfile to remove the temporary index. But if we fail
before we even get to the write step (because reading the
old index failed), we leave the lockfile in place, which
makes no sense.
In practice this hasn't been a big deal because failing at
write_index_as_tree() typically results in the whole program
exiting (and thus the tempfile handler kicking in and
cleaning up the files). But this function should
consistently take responsibility for the resources it
allocates.
