Jonathan Nieder	e050029385	Remove pack file handling dependency from wrapper.o As v1.7.0-rc0~43 (slim down "git show-index", 2010-01-21) explains, use of xmalloc() brings in a dependency on zlib, the sha1 lib, and the rest of git's object file access machinery via try_to_free_pack_memory. That is overkill when xmalloc is just being used as a convenience wrapper to exit when no memory is available. So defer setting try_to_free_pack_memory as try_to_free_routine until the first packfile is opened in add_packed_git(). After this change, a simple program using xmalloc() and no other functions will not pull in any code from libgit.a aside from wrapper.o and usage.o.

Jonathan Nieder	b0613ce0f9	wrapper: give zlib wrappers their own translation unit Programs using xmalloc() but not git_inflate() require -lz on the linker command line because git_inflate() is in the same translation unit as xmalloc().

Jonathan Nieder	33f239365c	path helpers: move git_mkstemp* to wrapper.c git_mkstemp_mode and related functions do not require access to specialized git machinery, unlike some other functions from path.c (like set_shared_perm()). Move them to wrapper.c where the wrapper xmkstemp_mode is defined. This eliminates a dependency of wrapper.o on environment.o via path.o. With typical linkers (e.g., gcc), that dependency makes programs that use functions from wrapper.o and not environment.o or path.o larger than they need to be.

Jonathan Nieder	463db9b104	wrapper: move odb_* to environment.c The odb_mkstemp and odb_pack_keep functions open files under the $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY directory. This requires access to the git configuration which very simple programs do not need. Move these functions to environment.o, closer to their dependencies. This should make it easier for programs to link to wrapper.o without linking to environment.o.

Jonathan Nieder	58ecbd5ede	wrapper: move xmmap() to sha1_file.c wrapper.o depends on sha1_file.o for a number of reasons. One is release_pack_memory(). xmmap function calls mmap, discarding unused pack windows when necessary to relieve memory pressure. Simple git programs using wrapper.o as a friendly libc do not need this functionality. So move xmmap to sha1_file.o, where release_pack_memory() is.

Matthieu Moy	8bd9fd5001	xmalloc: include size in the failure message Out-of-memory errors can either be actual lack of memory, or bugs (like code trying to call xmalloc(-1) by mistake). A little more information may help tracking bugs reported by users. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	15 years ago
Johannes Sixt	851c34b04e	Have set_try_to_free_routine return the previous routine This effectively requires from the callers of set_try_to_free_routine to treat the try-to-free-routines as a stack. We will need this for the next patch where the only current caller cannot depend on that the previously set routine was the default routine.

Peter Collingbourne	80d706afed	Introduce remove_or_warn function This patch introduces the remove_or_warn function which is a generalised version of the {unlink,rmdir}_or_warn functions. It takes an additional parameter indicating the mode of the file to be removed. The patch also modifies certain functions to use remove_or_warn where appropriate, and adds a test case for a bug fixed by the use of remove_or_warn.

Nicolas Pitre	a9a746364b	Make xmalloc and xrealloc thread-safe By providing a hook for the routine responsible for trying to free some memory on malloc failure, we can ensure that the called routine is protected by the appropriate locks when threads are in play. The obvious offender here was pack-objects which was calling xmalloc() within threads while release_pack_memory() is not thread safe.

Matthieu Moy	f80c7ae8fe	Use git_mkstemp_mode and xmkstemp_mode in odb_mkstemp, not chmod later. We used to create 0600 files, and then use chmod to set the group and other permission bits to the umask. This usually has the same effect as a normal file creation with a umask. But in the presence of ACLs, the group permission plays the role of the ACL mask: the "g" bits of newly created files are chosen according to default ACL mask of the directory, not according to the umask, and doing a chmod() on these "g" bits affect the ACL's mask instead of actual group permission. In other words, creating files with 0600 and then doing a chmod to the umask creates files which are unreadable by users allowed in the default ACL. To create the files without breaking ACLs, we let the umask do it's job at the file's creation time, and get rid of the later chmod.

Matthieu Moy	b862b61c03	git_mkstemp_mode, xmkstemp_mode: variants of gitmkstemps with mode argument. gitmkstemps emulates the behavior of mkstemps, which is usually used to create files in a shared directory like /tmp/, hence, it creates files with permission 0600. Add git_mkstemps_mode() that allows us to specify the desired mode, and make git_mkstemps() a wrapper that always uses 0600 to call it. Later we will use git_mkstemps_mode() when creating pack files.

Thomas Rast	d824cbba02	Convert existing die(..., strerror(errno)) to die_errno() Change calls to die(..., strerror(errno)) to use the new die_errno(). In the process, also make slight style adjustments: at least state _something_ about the function that failed (instead of just printing the pathname), and put paths in single quotes.

Alex Riesen	fc71db39e0	Introduce an unlink(2) wrapper which gives warning if unlink failed This seem to be a very common pattern in the current code. The function prints a generic removal failure message, the file name which failed and readable errno presentation. The function preserves errno and always returns the value unlink(2) returned, but prints no message for ENOENT, as it was the most often filtered out in the code calling unlink. Besides, removing a file is anyway the purpose of calling unlink. Signed-off-by: Alex Riesen <raa.lkml@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago

Junio C Hamano	6e180cdcec	Make sure objects/pack exists before creating a new pack In a repository created with git older than `f49fb35` (git-init-db: create "pack" subdirectory under objects, 2005-06-27), objects/pack/ directory is not created upon initialization. It was Ok because subdirectories are created as needed inside directories init-db creates, and back then, packfiles were recent invention. After the said commit, new codepaths started relying on the presense of objects/pack/ directory in the repository. This was exacerbated with `8b4eb6b` (Do not perform cross-directory renames when creating packs, 2008-09-22) that moved the location temporary pack files are created from objects/ directory to objects/pack/ directory, because moving temporary to the final location was done carefully with lazy leading directory creation. Many packfile related operations in such an old repository can fail mysteriously because of this. This commit introduces two helper functions to make things work better. - odb_mkstemp() is a specialized version of mkstemp() to refactor the code and teach it to create leading directories as needed; - odb_pack_keep() refactors the code to create a ".keep" file while create leading directories as needed.

Linus Torvalds	39c68542fc	Wrap inflate and other zlib routines for better error reporting R. Tyler Ballance reported a mysterious transient repository corruption; after much digging, it turns out that we were not catching and reporting memory allocation errors from some calls we make to zlib. This one _just_ wraps things; it doesn't do the "retry on low memory error" part, at least not yet. It is an independent issue from the reporting. Some of the errors are expected and passed back to the caller, but we die when zlib reports it failed to allocate memory for now. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago
Junio C Hamano	559e840b74	Move read_in_full() and write_in_full() to wrapper.c A few compat/* layer functions call these functions, but we would really want to keep them thin, without depending too much on the libgit proper. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago
Linus Torvalds	112db553b0	Shrink the git binary a bit by avoiding unnecessary inline functions So I was looking at the disgusting size of the git binary, and even with the debugging removed, and using -Os instead of -O2, the size of the text section was pretty high. In this day and age I guess almost a megabyte of text isn't really all that surprising, but it still doesn't exactly make me think "lean and mean". With -Os, a surprising amount of text space is wasted on inline functions that end up just being replicated multiple times, and where performance really isn't a valid reason to inline them. In particular, the trivial wrapper functions like "xmalloc()" are used _everywhere_, and making them inline just duplicates the text (and the string we use to 'die()' on failure) unnecessarily. So this just moves them into a "wrapper.c" file, getting rid of a tiny bit of unnecessary bloat. The following numbers are both with "CFLAGS=-Os": Before: [torvalds@woody git]$ size git text data bss dec hex filename 700460 15160 292184 1007804 f60bc git After: [torvalds@woody git]$ size git text data bss dec hex filename 670540 15160 292184 977884 eebdc git so it saves almost 30k of text-space (it actually saves more than that with the default -O2, but I don't think that's necessarily a very relevant number from a "try to shrink git" standpoint). It might conceivably have a performance impact, but none of this should be _that_ performance critical. The real cost is not generally in the wrapper anyway, but in the code it wraps (ie the cost of "xread()" is all in the read itself, not in the trivial wrapping of it).
