repack -ad: fix after fetch --prune in a shallow repository #9

Closed
wants to merge 3 commits into from

@dscho dscho commented Jul 13, 2018

Under certain circumstances, commits that were reachable can be made unreachable, e.g. via git fetch --prune. These commits might have been packed already, in which case git repack -adlf will just drop them without giving them the usual grace period before an eventual git prune (via git gc) prunes them.

This is a problem when the shallow file still lists them, which is the reason why git prune edits that file. And with the proposed changes, git repack -ad will now do the same.

Reported by Alejandro Pauly.

Changes since v3:

  • Made the regression test less confusing with regards to tags that might need to be dereferenced.
  • Introduced new global constants PRUNE_SHOW_ONLY and PRUNE_QUICK instead of extending the signature of prune_shallow() with Boolean parameters.
  • While at it, renamed the file-local constant from QUICK_PRUNE to QUICK.
  • Replaced the lookup_commit() && parse_commit() cadence (that wants to test for the existence of a commit) to has_object_file(), for ease of readability, and also to make it more obvious how to add a call to is_promisor_object() if we ever figure out that that would be necessary.

Changes since v2:

  • Fixed a typo in the last commit message.
  • Added an explanation to the last commit message why we do not simply skip non-existing shallow commits at fetch time.
  • Introduced a new, "quick prune" mode where prune_shallow() does not try to drop unreachable commits, but only non-existing ones.
  • Rebased to current master because there were too many merge conflicts for my liking otherwise.

Changes since v1:

  • Also trigger prune_shallow() when --unpack-unreachable=<approxidate> was passed to git repack.
  • No need to trigger prune_shallow() when git repack was called with -k.

A `git fetch --prune` can turn previously-reachable objects unreachable,
even commits that are in the `shallow` list. A subsequent `git repack
-ad` will then unceremoniously drop those unreachable commits, and the
`shallow` list will become stale. This means that when we try to fetch
with a larger `--depth` the next time, we may end up with:

	fatal: error in object: unshallow <commit-hash>

The `prune_shallow()` function wants a full reachability check to be
completed before it goes to work, to ensure that all unreachable entries
are removed from the shallow file.

However, in the upcoming patch we do not even want to go that far. We
really only need to remove entries corresponding to pruned commits, i.e.
to commits that no longer exist.

Let's support that use case.

Rather than extending the signature of `prune_shallow()` to accept
another Boolean, let's turn it into a bit field and declare constants,
for readability.

`git repack` can drop unreachable commits without further warning,
making the corresponding entries in `.git/shallow` invalid, which causes
serious problems when deepening the branches.

One scenario where unreachable commits are dropped by `git repack` is
when a `git fetch --prune` (or even a `git fetch` when a ref was
force-pushed in the meantime) can make a commit unreachable that was
reachable before.

Therefore it is not safe to assume that a `git repack -adlf` will keep
unreachable commits alone (under the assumption that they had not been
packed in the first place, which is an assumption at least some of Git's
code seems to make).

This is particularly important to keep in mind when looking at the
`.git/shallow` file: if any commits listed in that file become
unreachable, it is not a problem, but if they go missing, it *is* a
problem. One symptom of this problem is that a deepening fetch may now
fail with

	fatal: error in object: unshallow <commit-hash>

To avoid this problem, let's prune the shallow list in `git repack` when
the `-d` option is passed, unless `-A` is passed, too (which would force
the now-unreachable objects to be turned into loose objects instead of
being deleted). Additionally, we also need to take `--keep-reachable`
and `--unpack-unreachable=<date>` into account.

Note: an alternative solution discussed during the review of this patch
was to teach `git fetch` to simply ignore entries in .git/shallow if the
corresponding commits do not exist locally. A quick test, however,
revealed that the .git/shallow file is written during a shallow *clone*,
in which case the commits do not exist, either, but the "shallow" line
*does* need to be sent. Therefore, this approach would be a lot more
finicky than the approach presented by the this patch.

The return type of both `utf8_strwidth()` and `utf8_strnwidth()` is
`int`, but we operate on string lengths which are typically of type
`size_t`. This means that when the string is longer than `INT_MAX`, we
will overflow and thus return a negative result.

This can lead to an out-of-bounds write with `--pretty=format:%<1)%B`
and a commit message that is 2^31+1 bytes long:

Now the proper fix for this would be to convert both functions to return
an `size_t` instead of an `int`. But given that this commit may be part
of a security release, let's instead do the minimal viable fix and die
in case we see an overflow.

Add a test that would have previously caused us to crash.

The issue exists because `size` is an output parameter from
`read_blob_data_from_index`, but it's only modified if
`read_blob_data_from_index` returns non-NULL. The read of `size` when
calling `read_attr_from_buf` unconditionally may read from an
uninitialized value. `read_attr_from_buf` checks that `buf` is non-NULL
before reading from `size`, but by then it's already too late: the
uninitialized read will have happened already. Furthermore, there's no
guarantee that the compiler won't reorder things so that it checks
`size` before checking `!buf`.

Make the call to `read_attr_from_buf` conditional on `buf` being
non-NULL, ensuring that `size` is not read if it's never set.

It was recently reported that concurrent reads and writes may cause the
reftable backend to segfault. The root cause of this is that we do not
properly keep track of reftable readers across reloads.

Suppose that you have a reftable iterator and then decide to reload the
stack while iterating through the iterator. When the stack has been
rewritten since we have created the iterator, then we would end up
discarding a subset of readers that may still be in use by the iterator.
The consequence is that we now try to reference deallocated memory,
which of course segfaults.

One way to trigger this is in t5616, where some background maintenance
jobs have been leaking from one test into another. This leads to stack
traces like the following one:

While it is somewhat awkward that the maintenance processes survive

The only underlying resource that we need to care about in this context

The incremental MIDX bitmap work was done prior to 9d4855e
(midx-write: fix leaking buffer, 2024-09-30), and causes test failures
in t5334 in a post-9d4855eef3 world.

The leak looks like:

    Direct leak of 264 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

, and is a result of us not freeing the resources corresponding to the
bitmap's base layer, if one was present.

Rectify that leak by calling the newly-introduced free_bitmap_index()
function on the base layer to ensure that its resources are also freed.

This one is a little bit more curious. In t6112, we have a test that
exercises the `git rev-list --filter` option with invalid filters. We
execute git-rev-list(1) via `test_must_fail`, which means that we check
for leaks even though Git exits with an error code. This causes the
following leak:

This leak is valid, as we call `die()` and do not clean up the memory at
all. But what's curious is that this is the only leak reported, because
we don't clean up any other allocated memory, either, and I have no idea
why the leak sanitizer treats this buffer specially.

In any case, we can work around the leak by shuffling things around a
bit. Instead of calling `gently_parse_list_objects_filter()` and dying
after we have modified the filter spec, we simply do so beforehand. Like
this we don't allocate the buffer in the error case, which makes the
reported leak go away.

It's not pretty, but it manages to make t6112 leak free.

This one is a little bit more curious. In t6112, we have a test that
exercises the `git rev-list --filter` option with invalid filters. We
execute git-rev-list(1) via `test_must_fail`, which means that we check
for leaks even though Git exits with an error code. This causes the
following leak:

In 1b9e9be (csum-file.c: use unsafe SHA-1 implementation when
available, 2024-09-26) we have converted our `struct hashfile` to use
the unsafe SHA1 backend, which results in a significant speedup. One
needs to be careful with how to use that structure now though because
callers need to consistently use either the safe or unsafe variants of
SHA1, as otherwise one can easily trigger corruption.

As it turns out, we have one inconsistent usage in our tree because we
directly initialize `struct hashfile_checkpoint::ctx` with the safe
variant of SHA1, but end up writing to that context with the unsafe
ones. This went unnoticed so far because our CI systems do not exercise
different hash functions for these two backends, and consequently safe
and unsafe variants are equivalent. But when using SHA1DC as safe and
OpenSSL as unsafe backend this leads to a crash an t1050:

Same as with the preceding commit, git-fast-import(1) is using the safe
variant to initialize a hashfile checkpoint. This leads to a segfault
when passing the checkpoint into the hashfile subsystem because it would
use the unsafe variants instead:
