Michael Haggerty	0978f4ba7f	lockfile: add a new method, is_lock_file_locked() It will soon prove useful. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	8 years ago
Junio C Hamano	b22d748403	lockfile: move REPORT_ON_ERROR bit elsewhere There was LOCK_NO_DEREF defined as 2 = 1<<1 with the same value, which was missed due to a huge comment block. Deconflict by moving the new one to 4 = 1<<2 for now. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	8 years ago
Junio C Hamano	3f061bf514	lockfile: LOCK_REPORT_ON_ERROR The "libify sequencer" topic stopped passing the die_on_error option to hold_locked_index(), and this lost an error message from "git merge --ff-only $commit" when there are competing updates in progress. The command still exits with a non-zero status, but that is not of much help for an interactive user. The last thing the command says is "Updating $from..$to". We used to follow it with a big error message that makes it clear that "merge --ff-only" did not succeed. What is sad is that we should have noticed this regression while reviewing the change. It was clear that the update to the checkout_fast_forward() function made a failing hold_locked_index() silent, but the only caller of the checkout_fast_forward() function had this comment: if (checkout_fast_forward(from, to, 1)) - exit(128); /* the callee should have complained already / + return -1; / the callee should have complained already / which clearly contradicted the assumption X-<. Add a new option LOCK_REPORT_ON_ERROR that can be passed instead of LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR to the hold_lock() family of functions and teach checkout_fast_forward() to use it to fix this regression. After going thourgh all calls to hold_lock*() family of functions that used to pass LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR but were modified to pass 0 in the "libify sequencer" topic "git show --first-parent 2a4062a4a8", it appears that this is the only one that has become silent. Many others used to give detailed report that talked about "there may be competing Git process running" but with the series merged they now only give a single liner "Unable to lock ...", some of which may have to be tweaked further, but at least they say something, unlike the one this patch fixes.

Ben Wijen	05d1ed6148	mingw: ensure temporary file handles are not inherited by child processes When the index is locked and child processes inherit the handle to said lock and the parent process wants to remove the lock before the child process exits, on Windows there is a problem: it won't work because files cannot be deleted if a process holds a handle on them. The symptom: Rename from 'xxx/.git/index.lock' to 'xxx/.git/index' failed. Should I try again? (y/n) Spawning child processes with bInheritHandles==FALSE would not work because no file handles would be inherited, not even the hStdXxx handles in STARTUPINFO (stdin/stdout/stderr). Opening every file with O_NOINHERIT does not work, either, as e.g. git-upload-pack expects inherited file handles. This leaves us with the only way out: creating temp files with the O_NOINHERIT flag. This flag is Windows-specific, however. For our purposes, it is equivalent to O_CLOEXEC (which does not exist on Windows), so let's just open temporary files with the O_CLOEXEC flag and map that flag to O_NOINHERIT on Windows. As Eric Wong pointed out, we need to be careful to handle the case where the Linux headers used to compile Git support O_CLOEXEC but the Linux kernel used to run Git does not: it returns an EINVAL. This fixes the test that we just introduced to demonstrate the problem.

Ralf Thielow	aae42e43c4	lockfile: remove function "hold_lock_file_for_append" With `77b9b1d` (add_to_alternates_file: don't add duplicate entries, 2015-08-10) the last caller of function "hold_lock_file_for_append" has been removed, so we can remove the function as well.

Michael Haggerty	1a9d15db25	tempfile: a new module for handling temporary files A lot of work went into defining the state diagram for lockfiles and ensuring correct, race-resistant cleanup in all circumstances. Most of that infrastructure can be applied directly to any temporary file. So extract a new "tempfile" module from the "lockfile" module. Reimplement lockfile on top of tempfile. Subsequent commits will add more users of the new module. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	10 years ago

Michael Haggerty	044b6a9efe	lockfile: allow file locking to be retried with a timeout Currently, there is only one attempt to lock a file. If it fails, the whole operation fails. But it might sometimes be advantageous to try acquiring a file lock a few times before giving up. So add a new function, hold_lock_file_for_update_timeout(), that allows a timeout to be specified. Make hold_lock_file_for_update() a thin wrapper around the new function. If timeout_ms is positive, then retry for at least that many milliseconds to acquire the lock. On each failed attempt, use select() to wait for a backoff time that increases quadratically (capped at 1 second) and has a random component to prevent two processes from getting synchronized. If timeout_ms is negative, retry indefinitely. In a moment we will switch to using the new function when locking packed-refs.

Michael Haggerty	013870cd2c	fdopen_lock_file(): access a lockfile using stdio Add a new function, fdopen_lock_file(), which returns a FILE pointer open to the lockfile. If a stream is open on a lock_file object, it is closed using fclose() on commit, rollback, or close_lock_file(). This change will allow callers to use stdio to write to a lockfile without having to muck around in the internal representation of the lock_file object (callers will be rewritten in upcoming commits).

Michael Haggerty	697cc8efd9	lockfile.h: extract new header file for the functions in lockfile.c Move the interface declaration for the functions in lockfile.c from cache.h to a new file, lockfile.h. Add #includes where necessary (and remove some redundant includes of cache.h by files that already include builtin.h). Move the documentation of the lock_file state diagram from lockfile.c to the new header file.
