Jeff King d1a13d3fcb send-pack: report signal death of pack-objects
If our pack-objects sub-process dies of a signal, then it
likely didn't have a chance to write anything useful to
stderr. The user may be left scratching their head why the
push failed. Let's detect this situation and write something
to stderr.

Jeff King ba69f92db6 send-pack: read "unpack" status even on pack-objects failure
If the local pack-objects of a push fails, we'll tell the
user about it. But one likely cause is that the remote
index-pack stopped reading for some reason (because it
didn't like our input, or encountered another error). In
that case we'd expect the remote to report more details to
us via the "unpack ..." status line. However, the current
code just hangs up completely, and the user never sees it.

Instead, let's call receive_unpack_status(), which will
complain on stderr with whatever reason the remote told us.
Note that if our pack-objects fails because the connection
was severed or the remote just crashed entirely, then our
packet_read_line() call may fail with "the remote end hung
up unexpectedly". That's OK. It's a more accurate
description than what we get now (which is just "some refs
failed to push").

This should be safe from any deadlocks. At the point we make
this call we'll have closed the writing end of the
connection to the server (either by handing it off to
a pack-objects which exited, explicitly in the stateless_rpc
case, or by doing a half-duplex shutdown for a socket). So
there should be no chance that the other side is waiting
for the rest of our pack-objects input.

Jeff King 40d05d04dd send-pack: improve unpack-status error messages
When the remote tells us that the "unpack" step failed, we
show an error message. However, unless you are familiar with
the internals of send-pack and receive-pack, it was not
clear that this represented an error on the remote side.
Let's re-word to make that more obvious.

Likewise, when we got an unexpected packet from the other
end, we complained with a vague message but did not actually
show the packet.  Let's fix that.

And finally, neither message was marked for translation. The
message from the remote probably won't be translated, but
there's no reason we can't do better for the local half.

Jeff King f0bca72dc7 send-pack: use buffered I/O to talk to pack-objects
We start a pack-objects process and then write all of the
positive and negative sha1s to it over a pipe. We do so by
formatting each item into a fixed-size buffer and then
writing each individually. This has two drawbacks:

  1. There's some manual computation of the buffer size,
     which is not immediately obvious is correct (though it
     is).

  2. We write() once per sha1, which means a lot more system
     calls than are necessary.

We can solve both by wrapping the pipe descriptor in a stdio
handle; this is the same technique used by upload-pack when
serving fetches.

Note that we can also simplify and improve the error
handling here. The original detected a single write error
and broke out of the loop (presumably to avoid writing the
error message over and over), but never actually acted on
seeing an error; we just fed truncated input and took
whatever pack-objects returned.

In practice, this probably didn't matter, as the likely
errors would be caused by pack-objects dying (and we'd
probably just die with SIGPIPE anyway). But we can easily
make this simpler and more robust; the stdio handle keeps an
error flag, which we can check at the end.

Jeff King 3e8b06d09c send-pack: isolate sigpipe in demuxer thread
If we get an error from pack-objects, we may exit
send_pack() early, before reading the server's status
response. In such a case, we may racily see SIGPIPE from our
async demuxer (which is trying to write that status back to
us), and we'd prefer to continue pushing the error up the
call stack, rather than taking down the whole process with
signal death.

This is safe to do because our demuxer just calls
recv_sideband, whose data writes are all done with
write_or_die(), which will notice SIGPIPE.

We do also write sideband 2 to stderr, and we would no
longer die on SIGPIPE there (if it were piped in the first
place, and if the piped program went away). But that's
probably a good thing, as it likewise should not abort the
push process at all (neither immediately by signal, nor
eventually by reporting failure back to the main thread).

Jeff King 739cf49161 send-pack: close demux pipe before finishing async process
This fixes a deadlock on the client side when pushing a
large number of refs from a corrupted repo.  There's a
reproduction script below, but let's start with a
human-readable explanation.

The client side of a push goes something like this:

  1. Start an async process to demux sideband coming from
     the server.

  2. Run pack-objects to send the actual pack, and wait for
     its status via finish_command().

  3. If pack-objects failed, abort immediately.

  4. If pack-objects succeeded, read the per-ref status from
     the server, which is actually coming over a pipe from
     the demux process started in step 1.

We run finish_async() to wait for and clean up the demux
process in two places. In step 3, if we see an error, we
want it to end early. And after step 4, it should be done
writing any data and we are just cleaning it up.

Let's focus on the error case first. We hand the output
descriptor to the server over to pack-objects. So by the
time it has returned an error to us, it has closed the
descriptor and the server has gotten EOF. The server will
mark all refs as failed with "unpacker error" and send us
back the status for each (followed by EOF).

This status goes to the demuxer thread, which relays it over
a pipe to the main thread. But the main thread never even
tries reading the status. It's trying to bail because of the
pack-objects error, and is waiting for the demuxer thread to
finish. If there are a small number of refs, that's OK; the
demuxer thread writes into the pipe buffer, sees EOF from
the server, and quits. But if there are a large number of
refs, it may block on write() back to the main thread,
leading to a deadlock (the main thread is waiting for the
demuxer to finish, the demuxer is waiting for the main
thread to read).

We can break this deadlock by closing the pipe between the
demuxer and the main thread before calling finish_async().
Then the demuxer gets a write() error and exits.

The non-error case usually just works, because we will have
read all of the data from the other side. We do close
demux.out already, but we only do so _after_ calling
finish_async(). This is OK because there shouldn't be any
more data coming from the server. But technically we've only
read to a flush packet, and a broken or malicious server
could be sending more cruft. In such a case, we would hit
the same deadlock. Closing the pipe first doesn't affect the
normal case, and means that for a cruft-sending server,
we'll notice a write() error rather than deadlocking.

Note that when write() sees this error, we'll actually
deliver SIGPIPE to the thread, which will take down the
whole process (unless we're compiled with NO_PTHREADS). This
isn't ideal, but it's an improvement over the status quo,
which is deadlocking. And SIGPIPE handling in async threads
is a bigger problem that we can deal with separately.

A simple reproduction for the error case is below. It's
technically racy (we could exit the main process and take
down the async thread with us before it even reads the
status), though in practice it seems to fail pretty
consistently.

    git init repo &&
    cd repo &&

    # make some commits; we need two so we can simulate corruption
    # in the history later.
    git commit --allow-empty -m one &&
    one=$(git rev-parse HEAD) &&
    git commit --allow-empty -m two &&
    two=$(git rev-parse HEAD) &&

    # now make a ton of refs; our goal here is to overflow the pipe buffer
    # when reporting the ref status, which will cause the demuxer to block
    # on write()
    for i in $(seq 20000); do
    	echo "create refs/heads/this-is-a-really-long-branch-name-$i $two"
    done |
    git update-ref --stdin &&

    # now make a corruption in the history such that pack-objects will fail
    rm -vf .git/objects/$(echo $one | sed 's}..}&/}') &&

    # and then push the result

    git push --mirror dst.git

This adds support to send-pack to negotiate and use atomic pushes
iff the server supports it. Atomic pushes are activated by a new command
line flag --atomic.

In order to do this we also need to change the semantics for send_pack()
slightly. The existing send_pack() function actually doesn't send all the
refs back to the server when multiple refs are involved, for example
when using --all. Several of the failure modes for pushes can already be
detected locally in the send_pack client based on the information from the
initial server side list of all the refs as generated by receive-pack.
Any such refs that we thus know would fail to push are thus pruned from
the list of refs we send to the server to update.

For atomic pushes, we have to deal thus with both failures that are detected
locally as well as failures that are reported back from the server. In order
to do so we treat all local failures as push failures too.

We introduce a new status code REF_STATUS_ATOMIC_PUSH_FAILED so we can
flag all refs that we would normally have tried to push to the server
but we did not due to local failures. This is to improve the error message
back to the end user to flag that "these refs failed to update since the
atomic push operation failed."

Junio C Hamano b89363e4a5 signed push: fortify against replay attacks
In order to prevent a valid push certificate for pushing into an
repository from getting replayed in a different push operation, send
a nonce string from the receive-pack process and have the signer
include it in the push certificate.  The receiving end uses an HMAC
hash of the path to the repository it serves and the current time
stamp, hashed with a secret seed (the secret seed does not have to
be per-repository but can be defined in /etc/gitconfig) to generate
the nonce, in order to ensure that a random third party cannot forge
a nonce that looks like it originated from it.

The original nonce is exported as GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE for the hooks
to examine and match against the value on the "nonce" header in the
certificate to notice a replay, but returned "nonce" header in the
push certificate is examined by receive-pack and the result is
exported as GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE_STATUS, whose value would be "OK"
if the nonce recorded in the certificate matches what we expect, so
that the hooks can more easily check.

Record the URL of the intended recipient for a push (after
anonymizing it if it has authentication material) on a new "pushee
URL" header.  Because the networking configuration (SSH-tunnels,
proxies, etc.) on the pushing user's side varies, the receiving
repository may not know the single canonical URL all the pushing
users would refer it as (besides, many sites allow pushing over
ssh://host/path and https://host/path protocols to the same
repository but with different local part of the path).  So this
value may not be reliably used for replay-attack prevention
purposes, but this will still serve as a human readable hint to
identify the repository the certificate refers to.

though we already send a signed copy of the same information when
push certificate is in use.  Update the send-pack/receive-pack pair
not to do so.

The notable thing on the receive-pack side is that it makes sure
that there is no command sent over the traditional protocol packet
outside the push certificate.  Otherwise a pusher can claim to be
pushing one set of ref updates in the signed certificate while
issuing commands to update unrelated refs, and such an update will
evade later audits.

Finally, start documenting the protocol.

Junio C Hamano 20a7558f31 send-pack: send feature request on push-cert packet
We would want to update the interim protocol so that we do not send
the usual update commands when the push certificate feature is in
use, as the same information is in the certificate.  Once that
happens, the push-cert packet may become the only protocol command,
but then there is no packet to put the feature request behind, like
we always did.

As we have prepared the receiving end that understands the push-cert
feature to accept the feature request on the first protocol packet
(other than "shallow ", which was an unfortunate historical mistake
that has to come before everything else), we can give the feature
request on the push-cert packet instead of the first update protocol
packet, in preparation for the next step to actually update to the
final protocol.

Junio C Hamano a85b377d04 push: the beginning of "git push --signed"
While signed tags and commits assert that the objects thusly signed
came from you, who signed these objects, there is not a good way to
assert that you wanted to have a particular object at the tip of a
particular branch.  My signing v2.0.1 tag only means I want to call
the version v2.0.1, and it does not mean I want to push it out to my
'master' branch---it is likely that I only want it in 'maint', so
the signature on the object alone is insufficient.

The only assurance to you that 'maint' points at what I wanted to
place there comes from your trust on the hosting site and my
authentication with it, which cannot easily audited later.

Introduce a mechanism that allows you to sign a "push certificate"
(for the lack of better name) every time you push, asserting that
what object you are pushing to update which ref that used to point
at what other object.  Think of it as a cryptographic protection for
ref updates, similar to signed tags/commits but working on an
orthogonal axis.

The basic flow based on this mechanism goes like this:

 1. You push out your work with "git push --signed".

 2. The sending side learns where the remote refs are as usual,
    together with what protocol extension the receiving end
    supports.  If the receiving end does not advertise the protocol
    extension "push-cert", an attempt to "git push --signed" fails.

    Otherwise, a text file, that looks like the following, is
    prepared in core:

	certificate version 0.1
	pusher Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> 1315427886 -0700

	7339ca65... 21580ecb... refs/heads/master
	3793ac56... 12850bec... refs/heads/next

    The file begins with a few header lines, which may grow as we
    gain more experience.  The 'pusher' header records the name of
    the signer (the value of user.signingkey configuration variable,
    falling back to GIT_COMMITTER_{NAME|EMAIL}) and the time of the
    certificate generation.  After the header, a blank line follows,
    followed by a copy of the protocol message lines.

    Each line shows the old and the new object name at the tip of
    the ref this push tries to update, in the way identical to how
    the underlying "git push" protocol exchange tells the ref
    updates to the receiving end (by recording the "old" object
    name, the push certificate also protects against replaying).  It
    is expected that new command packet types other than the
    old-new-refname kind will be included in push certificate in the
    same way as would appear in the plain vanilla command packets in
    unsigned pushes.

    The user then is asked to sign this push certificate using GPG,
    formatted in a way similar to how signed tag objects are signed,
    and the result is sent to the other side (i.e. receive-pack).

    In the protocol exchange, this step comes immediately before the
    sender tells what the result of the push should be, which in
    turn comes before it sends the pack data.

 3. When the receiving end sees a push certificate, the certificate
    is written out as a blob.  The pre-receive hook can learn about
    the certificate by checking GIT_PUSH_CERT environment variable,
    which, if present, tells the object name of this blob, and make
    the decision to allow or reject this push.  Additionally, the
    post-receive hook can also look at the certificate, which may be
    a good place to log all the received certificates for later
    audits.

Because a push certificate carry the same information as the usual
command packets in the protocol exchange, we can omit the latter
when a push certificate is in use and reduce the protocol overhead.
This however is not included in this patch to make it easier to
review (in other words, the series at this step should never be
released without the remainder of the series, as it implements an
interim protocol that will be incompatible with the final one).
As such, the documentation update for the protocol is left out of
this step.

Jeff King 74543a0423 pkt-line: provide a LARGE_PACKET_MAX static buffer
Most of the callers of packet_read_line just read into a
static 1000-byte buffer (callers which handle arbitrary
binary data already use LARGE_PACKET_MAX). This works fine
in practice, because:

  1. The only variable-sized data in these lines is a ref
     name, and refs tend to be a lot shorter than 1000
     characters.

  2. When sending ref lines, git-core always limits itself
     to 1000 byte packets.

However, the only limit given in the protocol specification
in Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt is
LARGE_PACKET_MAX; the 1000 byte limit is mentioned only in
pack-protocol.txt, and then only describing what we write,
not as a specific limit for readers.

This patch lets us bump the 1000-byte limit to
LARGE_PACKET_MAX. Even though git-core will never write a
packet where this makes a difference, there are two good
reasons to do this:

  1. Other git implementations may have followed
     protocol-common.txt and used a larger maximum size. We
     don't bump into it in practice because it would involve
     very long ref names.

  2. We may want to increase the 1000-byte limit one day.
     Since packets are transferred before any capabilities,
     it's difficult to do this in a backwards-compatible
     way. But if we bump the size of buffer the readers can
     handle, eventually older versions of git will be
     obsolete enough that we can justify bumping the
     writers, as well. We don't have plans to do this
     anytime soon, but there is no reason not to start the
     clock ticking now.

Just bumping all of the reading bufs to LARGE_PACKET_MAX
would waste memory. Instead, since most readers just read
into a temporary buffer anyway, let's provide a single
static buffer that all callers can use. We can further wrap
this detail away by having the packet_read_line wrapper just
use the buffer transparently and return a pointer to the
static storage.  That covers most of the cases, and the
remaining ones already read into their own LARGE_PACKET_MAX
buffers.

Jeff King 819b929d33 pkt-line: teach packet_read_line to chomp newlines
The packets sent during ref negotiation are all terminated
by newline; even though the code to chomp these newlines is
short, we end up doing it in a lot of places.

This patch teaches packet_read_line to auto-chomp the
trailing newline; this lets us get rid of a lot of inline
chomping code.

As a result, some call-sites which are not reading
line-oriented data (e.g., when reading chunks of packfiles
alongside sideband) transition away from packet_read_line to
the generic packet_read interface. This patch converts all
of the existing callsites.

Since the function signature of packet_read_line does not
change (but its behavior does), there is a possibility of
new callsites being introduced in later commits, silently
introducing an incompatibility.  However, since a later
patch in this series will change the signature, such a
commit would have to be merged directly into this commit,
not to the tip of the series; we can therefore ignore the
issue.

This is an internal cleanup and should produce no change of
behavior in the normal case. However, there is one corner
case to note. Callers of packet_read_line have never been
able to tell the difference between a flush packet ("0000")
and an empty packet ("0004"), as both cause packet_read_line
to return a length of 0. Readers treat them identically,
even though Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt says
we must not; it also says that implementations should not
send an empty pkt-line.

By stripping out the newline before the result gets to the
caller, we will now treat the newline-only packet ("0005\n")
the same as an empty packet, which in turn gets treated like
a flush packet. In practice this doesn't matter, as neither
empty nor newline-only packets are part of git's protocols
(at least not for the line-oriented bits, and readers who
are not expecting line-oriented packets will be calling
packet_read directly, anyway). But even if we do decide to
care about the distinction later, it is orthogonal to this
patch.  The right place to tighten would be to stop treating
empty packets as flush packets, and this change does not
make doing so any harder.

Jeff King 8f9e3e498c send-pack: prefer prefixcmp over memcmp in receive_status
This code predates prefixcmp, so it used memcmp along with
static sizes. Replacing these memcmps with prefixcmp makes
the code much more readable, and the lack of static sizes
will make refactoring it in future patches simpler.

Note that we used to be unnecessarily liberal in parsing the
"unpack" status line, and would accept "unpack ok\njunk". No
version of git has ever produced that, and it violates the
BNF in Documentation/technical/pack-protocol.txt. Let's take
this opportunity to tighten the check by converting the
prefix comparison into a strcmp.

While we're in the area, let's also fix a vague error
message that does not follow our usual conventions (it
writes directly to stderr and does not use the "error:"
prefix).

Junio C Hamano 75e5c0dc55 push: introduce REJECT_FETCH_FIRST and REJECT_NEEDS_FORCE
When we push to update an existing ref, if:

 * the object at the tip of the remote is not a commit; or
 * the object we are pushing is not a commit,

it won't be correct to suggest to fetch, integrate and push again,
as the old and new objects will not "merge".  We should explain that
the push must be forced when there is a non-committish object is
involved in such a case.

If we do not have the current object at the tip of the remote, we do
not even know that object, when fetched, is something that can be
merged.  In such a case, suggesting to pull first just like
non-fast-forward case may not be technically correct, but in
practice, most such failures are seen when you try to push your work
to a branch without knowing that somebody else already pushed to
update the same branch since you forked, so "pull first" would work
as a suggestion most of the time.  And if the object at the tip is
not a commit, "pull first" will fail, without making any permanent
damage.  As a side effect, it also makes the error message the user
will get during the next "push" attempt easier to understand, now
the user is aware that a non-commit object is involved.

In these cases, the current code already rejects such a push on the
client end, but we used the same error and advice messages as the
ones used when rejecting a non-fast-forward push, i.e. pull from
there and integrate before pushing again.

Introduce new rejection reasons and reword the messages
appropriately.

Johannes Sixt 98158e9cfd Change git_connect() to return a struct child_process instead of a pid_t.
This prepares the API of git_connect() and finish_connect() to operate on
a struct child_process. Currently, we just use that object as a placeholder
for the pid that we used to return. A follow-up patch will change the
implementation of git_connect() and finish_connect() to make full use
of the object.

Old code had early-return-on-error checks at the calling sites of
git_connect(), but since git_connect() dies on errors anyway, these checks
were removed.

Jeff King 334f4831e5 send-pack: don't update tracking refs on error
Previously, we updated the tracking refs (which match refs we
are pushing) while generating the list of refs to send.
However, at that point we don't know whether the refs were
accepted.

Instead, we now wait until we get a response code from the
server. If an error was indicated, we don't update any local
tracking refs. Technically some refs could have been updated
on the remote, but since the local ref update is just an
optimization to avoid an extra fetch, we are better off
erring on the side of correctness.

The user-visible message is now generated much later in the
program, and has been tweaked to make more sense.

remote_find_tracking() will fill in the other and return 0.

of this family of calls:

1) convert the existing write_or_whine() to write_or_whine_pipe()
   to better indicate its pipe specific nature,
2) convert the existing write_in_full() calls to write_or_whine()
   to better indicate its nature,
3) introduce a write_in_full() providing a write or fail semantic,
   and
4) convert write_or_whine() and write_or_whine_pipe() to use
   write_in_full().

Junio C Hamano e40a9e2c9e send-pack: fix pipeline.
send-pack builds a pipeline that runs "rev-list | pack-objects"
and sends the output from pack-objects to the other side, while
feeding the input side of that pipe from itself.  However, the
file descriptor that is given to this pipeline (so that it can
be dup2(2)'ed into file descriptor 1 of pack-objects) is closed
by the caller before the complex fork+exec dance!  Worse yet,
the caller already dup2's it to 1, so the child process did not
even have to.

I do not understand how this code could possibly have been
working, but it somehow was working by accident.

Merging the sliding mmap() code reveals this problem, presumably
because it keeps one extra file descriptor open for a packfile
and changes the way file descriptors are allocated.  I am too
tired to diagnose the problem now, but this seems to be a
sensible fix.

When we are generating packs to update remote repositories we
want to supply as much information as possible about the revisions
that already exist to rev-list in order optimise the pack as much
as possible.  We need to pass two revisions for each branch we are
updating in the remote repository and one for each additional branch.
Where the remote repository has numerous branches we can run out
of command line space to pass them.

Utilise the git-rev-list --stdin mode to allow unlimited numbers
of revision constraints.  This allows us to move back to the much
simpler unordered revision selection code.
