Patrick Steinhardt 235fe77c29 ci: fix propagating UTF-8 test locale in musl-based Meson job
The musl-based Meson job is supposed to explicitly specify the UTF-8
locale used for testing, which has been introduced with 84bb5eeace (ci:
switch linux-musl to use Meson, 2025-01-28). That commit had two issues
though:

  - We continue to refer to "linux-musl", even though the job has been
    renamed in the same commit to "linux-musl-meson".

  - We use the wrong option name to specify the locale. This was not
    noticed though due to the first issue.

Fix both of these issues by fixing both the job and option naems.

Patrick Steinhardt 84bb5eeace ci: switch linux-musl to use Meson
Switch over the "linux-musl" job to use Meson instead of Makefiles. This
is done due to multiple reasons:

  - It simplifies our CI infrastructure a bit as we don't have to
    manually specify a couple of build options anymore.

  - It verifies that Meson detects and sets those build options
    automatically.

  - It makes it easier for us to wire up a new CI job using zlib-ng as
    backend.

One platform compatibility that Meson cannot easily detect automatically
is the `GIT_TEST_UTF8_LOCALE` variable used in tests. Wire up a build
option for it, which we set via a new "MESONFLAGS" environment variable.

Note that we also drop the CC variable, which is set to "gcc". We
already default to GCC when CC is unset in "ci/lib.sh", so this is not
needed.

Patrick Steinhardt 04c29bdea0 ci: merge linux-gcc-default into linux-gcc
The "linux-gcc-default" job is mostly doing the same as the "linux-gcc"
job, except for a couple of minor differences:

  - We use an explicit GCC version instead of the default version
    provided by the distribution. We have other jobs that test with
    "gcc-8", making this distinction pointless.

  - We don't set up the Python version explicitly, and instead use the
    default Python version. Python 2 has been end-of-life for quite a
    while now though, making this distinction less interesting.

  - We set up the default branch name to be "main" in "linux-gcc". We
    have other testcases that don't and also some that explicitly use
    "master".

  - We use "ubuntu:20.04" in one job and "ubuntu:latest" in another. We
    already have a couple other jobs testing these respectively.

So overall, the job does not add much to our test coverage.

Drop the "linux-gcc-default" job and adapt "linux-gcc" to start using
the default GCC compiler, effectively merging those two jobs into one.

We explicitly list the distro of Linux-based jobs, but it is equivalent
to the name of the image in almost all cases, except that colons are
replaced with dashes. Drop the redundant information and massage it in

There are a couple of exceptions:

  - The "linux32" job, whose distro name is different than the image
    name. This is handled by adapting all sites to use the new name.

  - The "alpine" and "fedora" jobs, neither of which specify a tag for
    their image. This is handled by adding the "latest" tag.

Junio C Hamano fc89d14c63 Revert barrier-based LSan threading race workaround
The extra "barrier" approach was too much code whose sole purpose
was to work around a race that is not even ours (i.e. in LSan's
teardown code).

In preparation for queuing a solution taking a much-less-invasive
approach, let's revert them.
2025-01-01 14:13:01 -08:00
Jeff King 7d0037b59a thread-utils: introduce optional barrier type
One thread primitive we don't yet support is a barrier: it waits for all
threads to reach a synchronization point before letting any of them
continue. This would be useful for avoiding the LSan race we see in
index-pack (and other places) by having all threads complete their
initialization before any of them start to do real work.

POSIX introduced a pthread_barrier_t in 2004, which does what we want.
But if we want to rely on it:

  1. Our Windows pthread emulation would need a new set of wrapper
     functions. There's a Synchronization Barrier primitive there, which
     was introduced in Windows 8 (which is old enough for us to depend
     on).

  2. macOS (and possibly other systems) has pthreads but not
     pthread_barrier_t. So there we'd have to implement our own barrier
     based on the mutex and cond primitives.

Those are do-able, but since we only care about avoiding races in our
LSan builds, there's an easier way: make it a noop on systems without a
native pthread barrier.

This patch introduces a "maybe_thread_barrier" API. The clunky name
(rather than just using pthread_barrier directly) should hopefully clue
people in that on some systems it will do nothing. It's wired to a
Makefile knob which has to be triggered manually, and we enable it for
the linux-leaks CI jobs (since we know we'll have it there).

There are some other possible options:

  - we could turn it on all the time for Linux systems based on uname.
    But we really only care about it for LSan builds, and there is no
    need to add extra code to regular builds.

  - we could turn it on only for LSan builds. But that would break
    builds on non-Linux platforms (like macOS) that otherwise should
    support sanitizers.

  - we could trigger only on the combination of Linux and LSan together.
    This isn't too hard to do, but the uname check isn't completely
    accurate. It is really about what your libc supports, and non-glibc
    systems might not have it (though at least musl seems to).

    So we'd risk breaking builds on those systems, which would need to
    add a new knob. Though the upside would be that running local "make
    SANITIZE=leak test" would be protected automatically.

And of course none of this protects LSan runs from races on systems
without pthread barriers. It's probably OK in practice to protect only
our CI jobs, though. The race is rare-ish and most leak-checking happens
through CI.

Patrick Steinhardt c6b43f663e ci/lib: fix "CI setup" sections with GitLab CI
Whenever we source "ci/lib.sh" we wrap the directives in a separate
group so that they can easily be collapsed in the web UI. And as we
source the script multiple times during a single CI run we thus end up
with the same section name reused multiple times, as well.

This is broken on GitLab CI though, where reusing the same group name is
not supported. The consequence is that only the last of these sections
can be collapsed.

Fix this issue by including the name of the sourcing script in the
group's name.

Patrick Steinhardt 1fc7ddf35b test-lib: unconditionally enable leak checking
Over the last two releases we have plugged a couple hundred of memory
leaks exposed by the Git test suite. With the preceding commits we have
finally fixed the last leak exposed by our test suite, which means that
we are now basically leak free wherever we have branch coverage.

From hereon, the Git test suite should ideally stay free of memory
leaks. Most importantly, any test suite that is being added should
automatically be subject to the leak checker, and if that test does not
pass it is a strong signal that the added code introduced new memory
leaks and should not be accepted without further changes.

Drop the infrastructure around TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK to reflect this
new requirement. Like this, all test suites will be subject to the leak
checker by default.

This is being intentionally strict, but we still have an escape hatch:
the SANITIZE_LEAK prerequisite. There is one known case in t5601 where
the leak sanitizer itself is buggy, so adding this prereq in such cases
is acceptable. Another acceptable situation is when a newly added test
uncovers preexisting memory leaks: when fixing that memory leak would be
sufficiently complicated it is fine to annotate and document the leak
accordingly. But in any case, the burden is now on the patch author to
explain why exactly they have to add the SANITIZE_LEAK prerequisite.

The TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK annotations will be dropped in the next
patch.

Patrick Steinhardt b7a08e947e ci: handle Windows-based CI jobs in GitLab CI
We try to abstract away any differences between different CI platforms
in "ci/lib.sh", such that knowledge specific to e.g. GitHub Actions or
GitLab CI is neatly encapsulated in a single place. Next to some generic
variables, we also set up some variables that are specific to the actual
platform that the CI operates on, e.g. Linux or macOS.

We do not yet support Windows runners on GitLab CI. Unfortunately, those
systems do not use the same "CI_JOB_IMAGE" environment variable as both
Linux and macOS do. Instead, we can use the "OS" variable, which should
have a value of "Windows_NT" on Windows platforms.

Patrick Steinhardt 7cd8f1cc6e ci: add Ubuntu 16.04 job to GitLab CI
In the preceding commits we had to convert the linux32 job to be based
on Ubuntu 20.04 instead of Ubuntu 16.04 due to a limitation in GitHub
Workflows. This was the only job left that still tested against this old
but supported Ubuntu version, and we have no other jobs that test with a
comparatively old Linux distribution.

Add a new job to GitLab CI that tests with Ubuntu 16.04 to cover the
resulting test gap. GitLab doesn't modify Docker images in the same way
GitHub does and thus doesn't fall prey to the same issue. There are two
compatibility issues uncovered by this:

  - Ubuntu 16.04 does not support HTTP/2 in Apache. We thus cannot set
    `GIT_TEST_HTTPD=true`, which would otherwise cause us to fail when
    Apache fails to start.

  - Ubuntu 16.04 cannot use recent JGit versions as they depend on a
    more recent Java runtime than we have available. We thus disable
    installing any kind of optional dependencies that do not come from
    the package manager.

These two restrictions are fine though, as we only really care about
whether Git compiles and runs on such old distributions in the first
place.

Rubén Justo 8c1d6691bc test-lib: GIT_TEST_SANITIZE_LEAK_LOG enabled by default
As we currently describe in t/README, it can happen that:

    Some tests run "git" (or "test-tool" etc.) without properly checking
    the exit code, or git will invoke itself and fail to ferry the
    abort() exit code to the original caller.

Therefore, GIT_TEST_SANITIZE_LEAK_LOG=true is needed to be set to
capture all memory leaks triggered by our tests.

It seems unnecessary to force users to remember this option, as
forgetting it could lead to missed memory leaks.

We could solve the problem by making it "true" by default, but that
might suggest we think "false" makes sense, which isn't the case.

Therefore, the best approach is to remove the option entirely while
maintaining the capability to detect memory leaks in blind spots of our
tests.

Patrick Steinhardt 5ca0c455f1 ci: fix Python dependency on Ubuntu 24.04
Newer versions of Ubuntu have dropped Python 2 starting with Ubuntu
23.04. By default though, our CI setups will try to use that Python
version on all Ubuntu-based jobs except for the "linux-gcc" one.

We didn't notice this issue due to two reasons:

  - The "ubuntu:latest" tag always points to the latest LTS release.
    Until a few weeks ago this was Ubuntu 22.04, which still had Python
    2.

  - Our Docker-based CI jobs had their own script to install
    dependencies until 9cdeb34b96 (ci: merge scripts which install
    dependencies, 2024-04-12), where we didn't even try to install
    Python at all for many of them.

Since the CI refactorings have originally been implemented, Ubuntu
24.04 was released, and it being an LTS versions means that the "latest"
tag now points to that Python-2-less version. Consequently, those jobs
that use "ubuntu:latest" broke.

Address this by using Python 2 on Ubuntu 20.04, only, whereas we use
Python 3 on all other Ubuntu jobs. Eventually, we should think about
dropping support for Python 2 completely.

Patrick Steinhardt 2c5c7639e5 ci: fix setup of custom path for GitLab CI
Part of "install-dependencies.sh" is to install some binaries required
for tests into a custom directory that gets added to the PATH. This
directory is located at "$HOME/path" and thus depends on the current
user that the script executes as.

This creates problems for GitLab CI, which installs dependencies as the
root user, but runs tests as a separate, unprivileged user. As their
respective home directories are different, we will end up using two
different custom path directories. Consequently, the unprivileged user
will not be able to find the binaries that were set up as root user.

Fix this issue by allowing CI to override the custom path, which allows
GitLab to set up a constant value that isn't derived from "$HOME".

Patrick Steinhardt 56090a35ab ci: add macOS jobs to GitLab CI
Add a job to GitLab CI which runs tests on macOS, which matches the
equivalent "osx-clang" job that we have for GitHub Workflows. One
significant difference though is that this new job runs on Apple M1
machines and thus uses the "arm64" architecture. As GCC does not yet
support this comparatively new architecture we cannot easily include an
equivalent for the "osx-gcc" job that exists in GitHub Workflows.

Note that one test marked as `test_must_fail` is surprisingly passing:

  t7815-grep-binary.sh                             (Wstat: 0 Tests: 22 Failed: 0)
    TODO passed:   12

This seems to boil down to an unexpected difference in how regcomp(3P)
works when matching NUL bytes. Cross-checking with the respective GitHub
job shows that this is not an issue unique to the GitLab CI job as it
passes in the same way there.

Patrick Steinhardt c4b84b137a ci: make p4 setup on macOS more robust
When setting up Perforce on macOS we put both `p4` and `p4d` into
"$HOME/bin". On GitHub CI this directory is indeed contained in the PATH
environment variable and thus there is no need for additional setup than
to put the binaries there. But GitLab CI does not do this, and thus our
Perforce-based tests would be skipped there even though we download the
binaries.

Refactor the setup code to become more robust by downloading binaries
into a separate directory which we then manually append to our PATH.
This matches what we do on Linux-based jobs.

Note that it may seem like we already did append "$HOME/bin" to PATH
because we're actually removing the lines that adapt PATH. But we only
ever adapted the PATH variable in "ci/install-dependencies.sh", and
didn't adapt it when running "ci/run-build-and-test.sh". Consequently,
the required binaries wouldn't be found during the test run unless the
CI platform already had the "$HOME/bin" in PATH right from the start.

Johannes Schindelin e7e03ef995 ci: avoid running the test suite _twice_
This is a late amendment of 4a6e4b9602 (CI: remove Travis CI support,
2021-11-23), whereby the `.prove` file (being written by the `prove`
command that is used to run the test suite) is no longer retained
between CI builds: This feature was only ever used in the Travis CI
builds, we tried for a while to do the same in Azure Pipelines CI runs
(but I gave up on it after a while), and we never used that feature in
GitHub Actions (nor does the new GitLab CI code use it).

Retaining the Prove cache has been fragile from the start, even though
the idea seemed good at the time, the idea being that the `.prove` file
caches information about previous `prove` runs (`save`) and uses them
(`slow`) to run the tests in the order from longer-running to shorter
ones, making optimal use of the parallelism implied by `--jobs=<N>`.

However, using a Prove cache can cause some surprising behavior: When
the `prove` caches information about a test script it has run,
subsequent `prove` runs (with `--state=slow`) will run the same test
script again even if said script is not specified on the `prove`
command-line!

So far, this bug did not matter. Right until d8f416bbb8 (ci: run unit
tests in CI, 2023-11-09) did it not matter.

But starting with that commit, we invoke `prove` _twice_ in CI, once to
run the regular test suite of regression test scripts, and once to run
the unit tests. Due to the bug, the second invocation re-runs all of the
tests that were already run as part of the first invocation. This not
only wastes build minutes, it also frequently causes the `osx-*` jobs to
fail because they already take a long time and now are likely to run
into a timeout.

The worst part about it is that there is actually no benefit to keep
running with `--state=slow,save`, ever since we decided no longer to
try to reuse the Prove cache between CI runs.

So let's just drop that Prove option and live happily ever after.

Patrick Steinhardt 0e3b67e2aa ci: add support for GitLab CI
We already support Azure Pipelines and GitHub Workflows in the Git
project, but until now we do not have support for GitLab CI. While it is
arguably not in the interest of the Git project to maintain a ton of
different CI platforms, GitLab has recently ramped up its efforts and
tries to contribute to the Git project more regularly.

Part of a problem we hit at GitLab rather frequently is that our own,
custom CI setup we have is so different to the setup that the Git
project has. More esoteric jobs like "linux-TEST-vars" that also set a
couple of environment variables do not exist in GitLab's custom CI
setup, and maintaining them to keep up with what Git does feels like
wasted time. The result is that we regularly send patch series upstream
that fail to compile or pass tests in GitHub Workflows. We would thus
like to integrate the GitLab CI configuration into the Git project to
help us send better patch series upstream and thus reduce overhead for
the maintainer. Results of these pipeline runs will be made available
(at least) in GitLab's mirror of the Git project at [1].

This commit introduces the integration into our regular CI scripts so
that most of the setup continues to be shared across all of the CI
solutions. Note that as the builds on GitLab CI run as unprivileged
user, we need to pull in both sudo and shadow packages to our Alpine
based job to set this up.

Patrick Steinhardt dd02c3b68c ci: squelch warnings when testing with unusable Git repo
Our CI jobs that run on Docker also use mostly the same architecture to
build and test Git via the "ci/run-build-and-tests.sh" script. These
scripts also provide some functionality to massage the Git repository
we're supposedly operating in.

In our Docker-based infrastructure we may not even have a Git repository
available though, which leads to warnings when those functions execute.
Make the helpers exit gracefully in case either there is no Git in our
PATH, or when not running in a Git repository.

Patrick Steinhardt 9f17bef9a6 ci: unify setup of some environment variables
Both GitHub Actions and Azure Pipelines set up the environment variables
GIT_TEST_OPTS, GIT_PROVE_OPTS and MAKEFLAGS. And while most values are
actually the same, the setup is completely duplicate. With the upcoming
support for GitLab CI this duplication would only extend even further.

Unify the setup of those environment variables so that only the uncommon
parts are separated. While at it, we also perform some additional small
improvements:

    - We now always pass `--state=failed,slow,save` via GIT_PROVE_OPTS.
      It doesn't hurt on platforms where we don't persist the state, so
      this further reduces boilerplate.

    - When running on Windows systems we set `--no-chain-lint` and
      `--no-bin-wrappers`. Interestingly though, we did so _after_
      already having exported the respective environment variables.

Patrick Steinhardt a7d499cb93 ci: make grouping setup more generic
Make the grouping setup more generic by always calling `begin_group ()`
and `end_group ()` regardless of whether we have stubbed those functions
or not. This ensures we can more readily add support for additional CI
platforms.

Furthermore, the `group ()` function is made generic so that it is the
same for both GitHub Actions and for other platforms. There is a
semantic conflict here though: GitHub Actions used to call `set +x` in
`group ()` whereas the non-GitHub case unconditionally uses `set -x`.
The latter would get overriden if we kept the `set +x` in the generic
version of `group ()`. To resolve this conflict, we simply drop the `set
+x` in the generic variant of this function. As `begin_group ()` calls
`set -x` anyway this is not much of a change though, as the only
commands that aren't printed anymore now are the ones between the
beginning of `group ()` and the end of `begin_group ()`.

Last, this commit changes `end_group ()` to also accept a parameter that
indicates _which_ group should end. This will be required by a later
commit that introduces support for GitLab CI.

We define a set of grouping functions that are used to group together
output in our CI, where these groups then end up as collapsible sections
in the respective pipeline platform. The way these functions are defined
is not easily extensible though as we have an up front check for the CI
_not_ being GitHub Actions, where we define the non-stub logic in the
else branch.

Reorder the conditional branches such that we explicitly handle GitHub
Actions.

Johannes Schindelin 682a868f67 ci: upgrade to using macos-13
In April, GitHub announced that the `macos-13` pool is available:
https://github.blog/changelog/2023-04-24-github-actions-macos-13-is-now-available/.
It is only a matter of time until the `macos-12` pool is going away,
therefore we should switch now, without pressure of a looming deadline.

Since the `macos-13` runners no longer include Python2, we also drop
specifically testing with Python2 and switch uniformly to Python3, see
https://github.com/actions/runner-images/blob/HEAD/images/macos/macos-13-Readme.md
for details about the software available on the `macos-13` pool's
runners.

Also, on macOS 13, Homebrew seems to install a `gcc@9` package that no
longer comes with a regular `unistd.h` (there seems only to be a
`ssp/unistd.h`), and hence builds would fail with:

    In file included from base85.c:1:
    git-compat-util.h:223:10: fatal error: unistd.h: No such file or directory
      223 | #include <unistd.h>
          |          ^~~~~~~~~~
    compilation terminated.

The reason why we install GCC v9.x explicitly is historical, and back in
the days it was because it was the _newest_ version available via
Homebrew: 176441bfb5 (ci: build Git with GCC 9 in the 'osx-gcc' build
job, 2019-11-27).

To reinstate the spirit of that commit _and_ to fix that build failure,
let's switch to the now-newest GCC version: v13.x.

Johannes Schindelin 6ba913629f ci(linux-asan-ubsan): let's save some time
Every once in a while, the `git-p4` tests flake for reasons outside of
our control. It typically fails with "Connection refused" e.g. here:
https://github.com/git/git/actions/runs/5969707156/job/16196057724

	[...]
	+ git p4 clone --dest=/home/runner/work/git/git/t/trash directory.t9807-git-p4-submit/git //depot
	  Initialized empty Git repository in /home/runner/work/git/git/t/trash directory.t9807-git-p4-submit/git/.git/
	  Perforce client error:
		Connect to server failed; check $P4PORT.
		TCP connect to localhost:9807 failed.
		connect: 127.0.0.1:9807: Connection refused
	  failure accessing depot: could not run p4
	  Importing from //depot into /home/runner/work/git/git/t/trash directory.t9807-git-p4-submit/git
	 [...]

This happens in other jobs, too, but in the `linux-asan-ubsan` job it
hurts the most because that job often takes over a full hour to run,
therefore re-running a failed `linux-asan-ubsan` job is _very_ costly.

The purpose of the `linux-asan-ubsan` job is to exercise the C code of
Git, anyway, and any part of Git's source code that the `git-p4` tests
run and that would benefit from the attention of ASAN/UBSAN are run
better in other tests anyway, as debugging C code run via Python scripts
can get a bit hairy.

In fact, it is not even just `git-p4` that is the problem (even if it
flakes often enough to be problematic in the CI builds), but really the
part about Python scripts. So let's just skip any Python parts of the
tests from being run in that job.

For good measure, also skip the Subversion tests because debugging C
code run via Perl scripts is as much fun as debugging C code run via
Python scripts. And it will reduce the time this very expensive job
takes, which is a big benefit.
