* strbuf.c: remove unnecessary strbuf_grow() from strbuf_getwholeline()Brandon Casey2011-10-181-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | This use of strbuf_grow() is a historical artifact that was once used to ensure that strbuf.buf was allocated and properly nul-terminated. This was added before the introduction of the slopbuf in b315c5c0, which guarantees that strbuf.buf always points to a usable nul-terminated string. So let's remove it.

| * strbuf_grow(): maintain nul-termination even for new bufferThomas Rast2011-08-291-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the case where sb is initialized to the slopbuf (through strbuf_init(sb,0) or STRBUF_INIT), strbuf_grow() loses the terminating nul: it grows the buffer, but gives ALLOC_GROW a NULL source to avoid it being freed. So ALLOC_GROW does not copy anything to the new memory area. This subtly broke the call to strbuf_getline in read_next_command() [fast-import.c:1855], which goes strbuf_detach(&command_buf, NULL); # command_buf is now = STRBUF_INIT stdin_eof = strbuf_getline(&command_buf, stdin, '\n'); if (stdin_eof) return EOF; In strbuf_getwholeline, this did strbuf_grow(sb, 0); # loses nul-termination if (feof(fp)) return EOF; strbuf_reset(sb); # this would have nul-terminated! Valgrind found this because fast-import subsequently uses prefixcmp() on command_buf.buf, which after the EOF exit contains only uninitialized memory. Arguably strbuf_getwholeline is also broken, in that it touches the buffer before deciding whether to do any work. However, it seems more futureproof to not let the strbuf API lose the nul-termination by its own fault. So make sure that strbuf_grow() puts in a nul even if it has nowhere to copy it from. This makes strbuf_grow(sb, 0) a semantic no-op as far as readers of the buffer are concerned. Also remove the nul-termination added by strbuf_init, which is made redudant.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The strbuf_split function takes a strbuf as input, and outputs a list of strbufs. However, there is no reason that the input has to be a strbuf, and not an arbitrary buffer. This patch adds strbuf_split_buf for a length-delimited buffer, and strbuf_split_str for NUL-terminated strings.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sometimes when splitting, you only want a limited number of fields, and for the final field to contain "everything else", even if it includes the delimiter. This patch introduces strbuf_split_max, which provides a "max number of fields" parameter; it behaves similarly to perl's "split" with a 3rd field. The existing 2-argument form of strbuf_split is retained for compatibility and ease-of-use. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a variable-args function, the code for writing into a strbuf is non-trivial. We ended up cutting and pasting it in several places because there was no vprintf-style function for strbufs (which in turn was held up by a lack of va_copy). Now that we have a fallback va_copy, we can add strbuf_vaddf, the strbuf equivalent of vsprintf. And we can clean up the cut and paste mess.

* | compat: helper for detecting unsigned overflowJonathan Nieder2011-02-101-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The idiom (a + b < a) works fine for detecting that an unsigned integer has overflowed, but a more explicit unsigned_add_overflows(a, b) might be easier to read. Define such a macro, expanding roughly to ((a) < UINT_MAX - (b)). Because the expansion uses each argument only once outside of sizeof() expressions, it is safe to use with arguments that have side effects.

* | disallow branch names that start with a hyphenJunio C Hamano2010-09-151-0/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current command line parser is overly lax in places and allows a branch whose name begins with a hyphen e.g. "-foo" to be created, but the parseopt infrastructure in general does not like to parse anything that begins with a dash as a short-hand refname. "git checkout -foo" won't work, nor will "git branch -d -foo" (even though "git branch -d -- -foo" works, it does so by mistake; we should not be taking anything but pathspecs after double-dash). All the codepaths that create a new branch ref, including the destination of "branch -m src dst", use strbuf_check_branch_ref() to validate if the given name is suitable as a branch name. Tighten it to disallow a branch that begins with a hyphen. You can still get rid of historical mistakes with $ git update-ref -d refs/heads/-foo and third-party Porcelains are free to keep using update-ref to create refs with a path component that begins with "-".

Case (2) is the intended beneficiary of this patch. Case (3) users probably won't notice, but as this is user-facing behavior, consistently providing the quoting mechanism makes sense.

In particular, this handles the case of the lstat() st_size data not matching the readlink() return value properly (which apparently happens at least on NTFS under Linux). But as a result of this you could also use the new function without even knowing how big the link is going to be, and it will allocate an appropriately sized buffer.

This is made worse by the current code's use of interpolate(), which requires _all_ placeholders are to be prepared up front. One way to speed this up is to check which placeholders are present in the format string and to prepare only the expansions that are needed. That still leaves the allocation overhead of interpolate(). Another way is to use a callback based approach together with the strbuf library to keep allocations to a minimum and avoid string copies. That's what this patch does. It introduces a new strbuf function, strbuf_expand(). The function takes a format string, list of placeholder strings, a user supplied function 'fn', and an opaque pointer 'context' to tell 'fn' what thingy to operate on. The function 'fn' is expected to accept a strbuf, a parsed placeholder string and the 'context' pointer, and append the interpolated value for the 'context' thingy, according to the format specified by the placeholder.

* | Handle broken vsnprintf implementations in strbufShawn O. Pearce2007-11-141-3/+4
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Solaris 9's vsnprintf implementation returns -1 if we pass it a buffer of length 0. The only way to get it to give us the actual length necessary for the formatted string is to grow the buffer out to have at least 1 byte available in the strbuf and then ask it to compute the length. If the available space is 0 I'm growing it out by 64 to ensure we will get an accurate length estimate from all implementations. Some callers may need to grow the strbuf again but 64 should be a reasonable enough initial growth. We also no longer silently fail to append to the string when we are faced with a broken vsnprintf implementation.

* Rework strbuf API and semantics.Pierre Habouzit2007-09-061-14/+87
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The gory details are explained in strbuf.h. The change of semantics this patch enforces is that the embeded buffer has always a '\0' character after its last byte, to always make it a C-string. The offs-by-one changes are all related to that very change. A strbuf can be used to store byte arrays, or as an extended string library. The `buf' member can be passed to any C legacy string function, because strbuf operations always ensure there is a terminating \0 at the end of the buffer, not accounted in the `len' field of the structure. A strbuf can be used to generate a string/buffer whose final size is not really known, and then "strbuf_detach" can be used to get the built buffer, and keep the wrapping "strbuf" structure usable for further work again. Other interesting feature: strbuf_grow(sb, size) ensure that there is enough allocated space in `sb' to put `size' new octets of data in the buffer. It helps avoiding reallocating data for nothing when the problem the strbuf helps to solve has a known typical size.

* War on whitespaceJunio C Hamano2007-06-071-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

* simplify inclusion of system header files.Junio C Hamano2006-12-201-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a mechanical clean-up of the way *.c files include system header files. (1) sources under compat/, platform sha-1 implementations, and xdelta code are exempt from the following rules; (2) the first #include must be "git-compat-util.h" or one of our own header file that includes it first (e.g. config.h, builtin.h, pkt-line.h); (3) system headers that are included in "git-compat-util.h" need not be included in individual C source files. (4) "git-compat-util.h" does not have to include subsystem specific header files (e.g. expat.h). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* sparse cleanupLinus Torvalds2005-05-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Fix various things that sparse complains about: - use NULL instead of 0 - make sure we declare everything properly, or mark it static - use proper function declarations ("fn(void)" instead of "fn()") Sparse is always right.
* [PATCH] fix strbuf take #2Junio C Hamano2005-05-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | I just remembered why I placed that bogus "sb->len ==0 implies sb->eof" condition there. We need at least something like this to catch the normal EOF (that is, line termination immediately followed by EOF) case. "if (feof(fp))" fires when we have already read the eof, not when we are about read it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] introduce xmalloc and xreallocChristopher Li2005-04-261-1/+2
| | | | | | | | Introduce xmalloc and xrealloc to die gracefully with a descriptive message when out of memory, rather than taking a SIGSEGV. Signed-off-by: Christopher Li<chrislgit@chrisli.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
