* use env_array member of struct child_processrs/run-command-env-arrayRené Scharfe2014-10-195-38/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | Convert users of struct child_process to using the managed env_array for specifying environment variables instead of supplying an array on the stack or bringing their own argv_array. This shortens and simplifies the code and ensures automatically that the allocated memory is freed after use.

* run-command: add env_array, an optional argv_array for envRené Scharfe2014-10-193-1/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | Similar to args, add a struct argv_array member to struct child_process that simplifies specifying the environment for children. It is freed automatically by finish_command() or if start_command() encounters an error.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have had "git -C $there" to first go to a different directory and run a Git command without changing the arguments for quite some time. Use it instead of (cd $there && git ...) in the completion script. This allows us to lose the work-around for misfeatures of modern interactive-minded shells that make "cd" unusable in scripts (e.g. end users' $CDPATH taking us to unexpected places in any POSIX shell, and chpwd functions spewing unwanted output in zsh). Based on Øystein Walle's idea, which was raised during the discussion on the solution by Brandon Turner for a problem zsh users had with RVM which mucks with chpwd_functions in users' environments (https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/issues/3076). As $root variable, which is used to direct where to chdir to, is set to "." based on if $2 to __git_index_files is set (not if it is empty), the only caller of the function is fixed not to pass the optional $2 when it does not want us to switch to a different directory. Otherwise we would end up doing "git -C '' command...", which would not work. Maybe we would want "git -C '' command..." to mean "do not chdir anywhere", but that is a spearate topic.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Oracle Studio compilers don't allow for static variables in functions that are defined to be inline. GNU C does permit this. Let's reference the C99 standard though, which doesn't allow for inline functions to contain modifiable static variables.

(That will be fixed in a moment.) Another alternative would be to just use a strbuf as scratch space in lock_file() but then store a pointer to the naked string in struct lock_file. But lock_file objects are often reused. By reusing the same strbuf, we can avoid having to reallocate the string most times when a lock_file object is reused.

It is not realistic to make the signal handler conform strictly to the C standard, which is very restrictive about what a signal handler is allowed to do. But let's increase the likelihood that it will work: The lock_file_list global variable and several fields from struct lock_file are used by the signal handler. Declare those values "volatile" to (1) force the main process to write the values to RAM promptly, and (2) prevent updates to these fields from being reordered in a way that leaves an opportunity for a jump to the signal handler while the object is in an inconsistent state. We don't mark the filename field volatile because that would prevent the use of strcpy(), and it is anyway unlikely that a compiler re-orders a strcpy() call across other expressions. So in practice it should be possible to get away without "volatile" in the "filename" case.

And since lock_file objects are often reused (but are never removed from lock_file_list), that means we have to be careful whenever mutating a lock_file object to always keep it in a well-defined state. This was formerly not the case, because part of the state was encoded by setting lk->filename to the empty string vs. a valid filename. It is wrong to assume that this string can be updated atomically; for example, even strcpy(lk->filename, value) is unsafe. But the old code was even more reckless; for example, strcpy(lk->filename, path); if (!(flags & LOCK_NODEREF)) resolve_symlink(lk->filename, max_path_len); strcat(lk->filename, ".lock"); During the call to resolve_symlink(), lk->filename contained the name of the file that was being locked, not the name of the lockfile. If a signal were raised during that interval, then the signal handler would have deleted the valuable file! We could probably continue to use the filename field to encode the state by being careful to write characters 1..N-1 of the filename first, and then overwrite the NUL at filename[0] with the first character of the filename, but that would be awkward and error-prone. So, instead of using the filename field to determine whether the lock_file object is active, add a new field "lock_file::active" for this purpose. Be careful to set this field only when filename really contains the name of a file that should be deleted on cleanup.

This change also insures that the lock_file object is left in a defined state in this error path (namely, unlocked). The only caller that is ultimately affected by this change is try_merge_strategy() -> write_locked_index(), which can call close_lock_file() via various execution paths. This caller uses a static lock_file object which previously could have been reused after a failed close_lock_file() even though it was still in locked state. This change causes the lock_file object to be unlocked on failure, thus fixing this error-handling path.
