t9300: use test_cmp_bin instead of test_cmp to compare binary files #2

t-b · 2014-09-24T17:01:13Z

Already in junio/master as git/git@f9f3851.

test_cmp is intended to produce diff output for human consumption. The input in one instance in t9300-fast-import.sh are binary files, however. Use test_cmp_bin to compare the files. This was noticed because on Windows we have a special implementation of test_cmp in pure bash code (to ignore differences due to intermittent CR in actual output), and bash runs into an infinite loop due to the binary nature of the input.

Any objections?

Not from my side. At first I though this would be contained in v2.1.1, in which case we should have rather done a rebasing merge against upstream, but it's not in there. Also, it does not seem to fix any of our failing tests, but nevertheless I'm fine with merging.

t-b · 2014-09-25T19:34:08Z

T9300 fails here locally sometimes and sometimes not. With that patch it fails never.
I've no idea why that did not make it into v2.1.1.

No objections from my side, either! I believe it is obviously a correct change.

The main loop in strbuf_utf8_replace() could summed up as: while ('src' is still valid) { 1) advance 'src' to copy ANSI escape sequences 2) advance 'src' to copy/replace visible characters } The problem is after #1, 'src' may have reached the end of the string (so 'src' points to NUL) and #2 will continue to copy that NUL as if it's a normal character. Because the output is stored in a strbuf, this NUL accounted in the 'len' field as well. Check after #1 and break the loop if necessary. The test does not look obvious, but the combination of %>>() should make a call trace like this show_log() pretty_print_commit() format_commit_message() strbuf_expand() format_commit_item() format_and_pad_commit() strbuf_utf8_replace() where %C(auto)%d would insert a color reset escape sequence in the end of the string given to strbuf_utf8_replace() and show_log() uses fwrite() to send everything to stdout (including the incorrect NUL inserted by strbuf_utf8_replace) Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The intent of the new test case is to catch general breakages in the fsck_tag() function, not so much to test it extensively, trying to strike the proper balance between thoroughness and speed. While it *would* have been nice to test the code path where fsck_object() encounters an invalid tag object, this is not possible using git fsck: tag objects are parsed already before fsck'ing (and the parser already fails upon such objects). Even worse: we would not even be able write out invalid tag objects because git hash-object parses those objects, too, unless we resorted to really ugly hacks such as using something like this in the unit tests (essentially depending on Perl *and* Compress::Zlib): hash_invalid_object () { contents="$(printf '%s %d\0%s' "$1" ${#2} "$2")" && sha1=$(echo "$contents" | test-sha1) && suffix=${sha1#??} && mkdir -p .git/objects/${sha1%$suffix} && echo "$contents" | perl -MCompress::Zlib -e 'undef $/; print compress(<>)' \ > .git/objects/${sha1%$suffix}/$suffix && echo $sha1 } Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

b6d8f30 (diff-raw format update take #2., 2005-05-23) started documenting the diff format, and it said ... (8) sha1 for "dst"; 0{40} if creation, unmerged or "look at work tree". (9) status, followed by similarlity index number only for C and R. (10) a tab or a NUL when '-z' option is used. ... because C and R _were_ the only ones that came with a number back then. This was corrected by ddafa7e (diff-helper: Fix R/C score parsing under -z flag., 2005-05-29) and we started saying "score" instead of "similarlity index" (because we can have other kind of score there), and stopped saying "only for C and R" (because Git is an ever evolving system). Later f345b0a (Add -B flag to diff-* brothers., 2005-05-30) introduced a new concept, "dissimilarity" score; it did not have to fix any documentation. The current text that says only C and R can have scores came independently from a5a323f (Add reference for status letters in documentation., 2008-11-02) and it was wrong from the day one.

The collect_parents() function now is responsible for 1. parsing the commits given on the command line into a list of commits to be merged; 2. filtering these parents into independent ones; and 3. optionally calling fmt_merge_msg() via prepare_merge_message() to prepare an auto-generated merge log message, using fake contents that FETCH_HEAD would have had if these commits were fetched from the current repository with "git pull . $args..." Make "git merge FETCH_HEAD" to be the same as the traditional git merge "$(git fmt-merge-msg <.git/FETCH_HEAD)" $commits invocation of the command in "git pull", where $commits are the ones that appear in FETCH_HEAD that are not marked as not-for-merge, by making it do a bit more, specifically: - noticing "FETCH_HEAD" is the only "commit" on the command line and picking the commits that are not marked as not-for-merge as the list of commits to be merged (substitute for step #1 above); - letting the resulting list fed to step #2 above; - doing the step #3 above, using the contents of the FETCH_HEAD instead of fake contents crafted from the list of commits parsed in the step #1 above. Note that this changes the semantics. "git merge FETCH_HEAD" has always behaved as if the first commit in the FETCH_HEAD file were directly specified on the command line, creating a two-way merge whose auto-generated merge log said "merge commit xyz". With this change, if the previous fetch was to grab multiple branches (e.g. "git fetch $there topic-a topic-b"), the new world order is to create an octopus, behaving as if "git pull $there topic-a topic-b" were run. This is a deliberate change to make that happen, and can be seen in the changes to t3033 tests. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The controlling tty-based heuristics to squelch progress output did not consider that the process may not be talking to a tty at all (e.g. sending the progress to sideband #2).

When ac49f5c (rerere "remaining", 2011-02-16) split out a new helper function check_one_conflict() out of find_conflict() function, so that the latter will use the returned value from the new helper to update the loop control variable that is an index into active_cache[], the new variable incremented the index by one too many when it found a path with only stage #1 entry at the very end of active_cache[]. This "strange" return value does not have any effect on the loop control of two callers of this function, as they all notice that active_nr+2 is larger than active_nr just like active_nr+1 is, but nevertheless it puzzles the readers when they are trying to figure out what the function is trying to do. In fact, there is no need to do an early return. The code that follows after skipping the stage #1 entry is fully prepared to handle a case where the entry is at the very end of active_cache[]. Help future readers from unnecessary confusion by dropping an early return. We skip the stage #1 entry, and if there are stage #2 and stage git-for-windows#3 entries for the same path, we diagnose the path as THREE_STAGED (otherwise we say PUNTED), and then we skip all entries for the same path.

When merge_recursive() decides what the correct blob object merge result for a path should be, it uses update_file_flags() helper function to write it out to a working tree file and then calls add_cacheinfo(). The add_cacheinfo() function in turn calls make_cache_entry() to create a new cache entry to replace the higher-stage entries for the path that represents the conflict. The make_cache_entry() function calls refresh_cache_entry() to fill in the cached stat information. To mark a cache entry as up-to-date, the data is re-read from the file in the working tree, and goes through convert_to_git() conversion to be compared with the blob object name the new cache entry records. It is important to note that this happens while the higher-stage entries, which are going to be replaced with the new entry, are still in the index. Unfortunately, the convert_to_git() conversion has a misguided "safer crlf" mechanism baked in, and looks at the existing cache entry for the path to decide how to convert the contents in the working tree file. If our side (i.e. stage#2) records a text blob with CRLF in it, even when the system is configured to record LF in blobs and convert them to CRLF upon checkout (and back to LF upon checkin), the "safer crlf" mechanism stops us doing so. This especially poses a problem during a renormalizing merge, where the merge result for the path is computed by first "normalizing" the blobs involved in the merge by using convert_to_working_tree() followed by convert_to_git() with "safer crlf" disabled. The merge result that is computed correctly and fed to add_cacheinfo() via update_file_flags() does _not_ match what refresh_cache_entry() sees by converting the working tree file via convert_to_git(). We can work this around by not refreshing the new cache entry in make_cache_entry() called by add_cacheinfo(). After add_cacheinfo() adds the new entry, we can call refresh_cache_entry() on that, knowing that addition of this new cache entry would have removed the stale cache entries that had CRLF in stage #2 that were carried over before the renormalizing merge started and will not interfere with the correct recording of the result. The test update was taken from a series by Torsten Bögershausen that attempted to fix this with a different approach.

How pathspec is used, with and without --interactive/--patch, is different. But this is not clear from the document. These changes hint the user to keep reading (to option #5) instead of stopping at #2 and assuming --patch/--interactive behaves the same way. And since all the options listed here always mention how the index is involved (or not) in the final commit, add that bit for #5 as well. This "on top of the index" is implied when you head over git-add(1), but if you just go straight to the "Interactive mode" and not read what git-add is for, you may miss it.

When importing from multiple perforce paths - we may attempt to import a changelist that contains files from two (or more) of these depot paths. Currently, this results in multiple git commits - one containing the changes, and the other(s) as empty commit(s). This behavior was introduced in commit 1f90a64 ("git-p4: reduce number of server queries for fetches", 2015-12-19). Reproduction Steps: 1. Have a git repo cloned from a perforce repo using multiple depot paths (e.g. //depot/foo and //depot/bar). 2. Submit a single change to the perforce repo that makes changes in both //depot/foo and //depot/bar. 3. Run "git p4 sync" to sync the change from #2. Change is synced as multiple commits, one for each depot path that was affected. Using a set, instead of a list inside p4ChangesForPaths() ensures that each changelist is unique to the returned list, and therefore only a single commit is generated for each changelist.

We generate the squash commit message incrementally running a sed script once for each commit. It parses "This is a combination of <N> commits" from the first line of the existing message, adds one to <N>, and uses the result as the number of our current message. Since f2d1706 (i18n: rebase-interactive: mark comments of squash for translation, 2016-06-17), the first line may be localized, and sed uses a pretty liberal regex, looking for: /^#.*([0-9][0-9]*)/ The "[0-9][0-9]*" tries to match double digits, but it doesn't quite work. The first ".*" is greedy, so if you have: This is a combination of 10 commits. it will eat up "This is a combination of 1", leaving "0" to match the first "[0-9]" digit, and then skipping the optional match of "[0-9]*". As a result, the count resets every 10 commits, and a 15-commit squash would end up as: # This is a combination of 5 commits. # This is the 1st commit message: ... # This is the commit message #2: ... and so on .. # This is the commit message #10: ... # This is the commit message #1: ... # This is the commit message #2: ... etc, up to 5 ... We can fix this by making the ".*" less greedy. Instead of depending on ".*?" working portably, we can just limit the match to non-digit characters, which accomplishes the same thing.

There is an out-of-bounds read possible when parsing gitattributes that have an attribute that is 2^31+1 bytes long.

When using a padding specifier in the pretty format passed to git-log(1) we need to calculate the string length in several places. These string lengths are stored in `int`s though, which means that these can easily overflow when the input lengths exceeds 2GB. This can ultimately lead to an out-of-bounds write when these are used in a call to memcpy(3P): ==8340==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on address 0x7f1ec62f97fe at pc 0x7f2127e5f427 bp 0x7ffd3bd63de0 sp 0x7ffd3bd63588 WRITE of size 1 at 0x7f1ec62f97fe thread T0 #0 0x7f2127e5f426 in __interceptor_memcpy /usr/src/debug/gcc/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_common_interceptors.inc:827 #1 0x5628e96aa605 in format_and_pad_commit pretty.c:1762 #2 0x5628e96aa7f4 in format_commit_item pretty.c:1801 #3 0x5628e97cdb24 in strbuf_expand strbuf.c:429 #4 0x5628e96ab060 in repo_format_commit_message pretty.c:1869 #5 0x5628e96acd0f in pretty_print_commit pretty.c:2161 #6 0x5628e95a44c8 in show_log log-tree.c:781 #7 0x5628e95a76ba in log_tree_commit log-tree.c:1117 #8 0x5628e922bed5 in cmd_log_walk_no_free builtin/log.c:508 #9 0x5628e922c35b in cmd_log_walk builtin/log.c:549 #10 0x5628e922f1a2 in cmd_log builtin/log.c:883 #11 0x5628e9106993 in run_builtin git.c:466 #12 0x5628e9107397 in handle_builtin git.c:721 #13 0x5628e9107b07 in run_argv git.c:788 #14 0x5628e91088a7 in cmd_main git.c:923 #15 0x5628e939d682 in main common-main.c:57 #16 0x7f2127c3c28f (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x2328f) #17 0x7f2127c3c349 in __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x23349) #18 0x5628e91020e4 in _start ../sysdeps/x86_64/start.S:115 0x7f1ec62f97fe is located 2 bytes to the left of 4831838265-byte region [0x7f1ec62f9800,0x7f1fe62f9839) allocated by thread T0 here: #0 0x7f2127ebe7ea in __interceptor_realloc /usr/src/debug/gcc/libsanitizer/asan/asan_malloc_linux.cpp:85 #1 0x5628e98774d4 in xrealloc wrapper.c:136 #2 0x5628e97cb01c in strbuf_grow strbuf.c:99 #3 0x5628e97ccd42 in strbuf_addchars strbuf.c:327 #4 0x5628e96aa55c in format_and_pad_commit pretty.c:1761 #5 0x5628e96aa7f4 in format_commit_item pretty.c:1801 #6 0x5628e97cdb24 in strbuf_expand strbuf.c:429 #7 0x5628e96ab060 in repo_format_commit_message pretty.c:1869 #8 0x5628e96acd0f in pretty_print_commit pretty.c:2161 #9 0x5628e95a44c8 in show_log log-tree.c:781 #10 0x5628e95a76ba in log_tree_commit log-tree.c:1117 #11 0x5628e922bed5 in cmd_log_walk_no_free builtin/log.c:508 #12 0x5628e922c35b in cmd_log_walk builtin/log.c:549 #13 0x5628e922f1a2 in cmd_log builtin/log.c:883 #14 0x5628e9106993 in run_builtin git.c:466 #15 0x5628e9107397 in handle_builtin git.c:721 #16 0x5628e9107b07 in run_argv git.c:788 #17 0x5628e91088a7 in cmd_main git.c:923 #18 0x5628e939d682 in main common-main.c:57 #19 0x7f2127c3c28f (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x2328f) #20 0x7f2127c3c349 in __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x23349) #21 0x5628e91020e4 in _start ../sysdeps/x86_64/start.S:115 SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow /usr/src/debug/gcc/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_common_interceptors.inc:827 in __interceptor_memcpy Shadow bytes around the buggy address: 0x0fe458c572a0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0fe458c572b0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0fe458c572c0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0fe458c572d0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0fe458c572e0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa =>0x0fe458c572f0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa[fa] 0x0fe458c57300: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0x0fe458c57310: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0x0fe458c57320: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0x0fe458c57330: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0x0fe458c57340: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Shadow byte legend (one shadow byte represents 8 application bytes): Addressable: 00 Partially addressable: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 Heap left redzone: fa Freed heap region: fd Stack left redzone: f1 Stack mid redzone: f2 Stack right redzone: f3 Stack after return: f5 Stack use after scope: f8 Global redzone: f9 Global init order: f6 Poisoned by user: f7 Container overflow: fc Array cookie: ac Intra object redzone: bb ASan internal: fe Left alloca redzone: ca Right alloca redzone: cb ==8340==ABORTING The pretty format can also be used in `git archive` operations via the `export-subst` attribute. So this is what in our opinion makes this a critical issue in the context of Git forges which allow to download an archive of user supplied Git repositories. Fix this vulnerability by using `size_t` instead of `int` to track the string lengths. Add tests which detect this vulnerability when Git is compiled with the address sanitizer.

With the `%>>(<N>)` pretty formatter, you can ask git-log(1) et al to steal spaces. To do so we need to look ahead of the next token to see whether there are spaces there. This loop takes into account ANSI sequences that end with an `m`, and if it finds any it will skip them until it finds the first space. While doing so it does not take into account the buffer's limits though and easily does an out-of-bounds read. Add a test that hits this behaviour. While we don't have an easy way to verify this, the test causes the following failure when run with `SANITIZE=address`: ==37941==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on address 0x603000000baf at pc 0x55ba6f88e0d0 bp 0x7ffc84c50d20 sp 0x7ffc84c50d10 READ of size 1 at 0x603000000baf thread T0 #0 0x55ba6f88e0cf in format_and_pad_commit pretty.c:1712 #1 0x55ba6f88e7b4 in format_commit_item pretty.c:1801 #2 0x55ba6f9b1ae4 in strbuf_expand strbuf.c:429 #3 0x55ba6f88f020 in repo_format_commit_message pretty.c:1869 #4 0x55ba6f890ccf in pretty_print_commit pretty.c:2161 #5 0x55ba6f7884c8 in show_log log-tree.c:781 #6 0x55ba6f78b6ba in log_tree_commit log-tree.c:1117 #7 0x55ba6f40fed5 in cmd_log_walk_no_free builtin/log.c:508 #8 0x55ba6f41035b in cmd_log_walk builtin/log.c:549 #9 0x55ba6f4131a2 in cmd_log builtin/log.c:883 #10 0x55ba6f2ea993 in run_builtin git.c:466 #11 0x55ba6f2eb397 in handle_builtin git.c:721 #12 0x55ba6f2ebb07 in run_argv git.c:788 #13 0x55ba6f2ec8a7 in cmd_main git.c:923 #14 0x55ba6f581682 in main common-main.c:57 #15 0x7f2d08c3c28f (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x2328f) #16 0x7f2d08c3c349 in __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x23349) #17 0x55ba6f2e60e4 in _start ../sysdeps/x86_64/start.S:115 0x603000000baf is located 1 bytes to the left of 24-byte region [0x603000000bb0,0x603000000bc8) allocated by thread T0 here: #0 0x7f2d08ebe7ea in __interceptor_realloc /usr/src/debug/gcc/libsanitizer/asan/asan_malloc_linux.cpp:85 #1 0x55ba6fa5b494 in xrealloc wrapper.c:136 #2 0x55ba6f9aefdc in strbuf_grow strbuf.c:99 #3 0x55ba6f9b0a06 in strbuf_add strbuf.c:298 #4 0x55ba6f9b1a25 in strbuf_expand strbuf.c:418 #5 0x55ba6f88f020 in repo_format_commit_message pretty.c:1869 #6 0x55ba6f890ccf in pretty_print_commit pretty.c:2161 #7 0x55ba6f7884c8 in show_log log-tree.c:781 #8 0x55ba6f78b6ba in log_tree_commit log-tree.c:1117 #9 0x55ba6f40fed5 in cmd_log_walk_no_free builtin/log.c:508 #10 0x55ba6f41035b in cmd_log_walk builtin/log.c:549 #11 0x55ba6f4131a2 in cmd_log builtin/log.c:883 #12 0x55ba6f2ea993 in run_builtin git.c:466 #13 0x55ba6f2eb397 in handle_builtin git.c:721 #14 0x55ba6f2ebb07 in run_argv git.c:788 #15 0x55ba6f2ec8a7 in cmd_main git.c:923 #16 0x55ba6f581682 in main common-main.c:57 #17 0x7f2d08c3c28f (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x2328f) #18 0x7f2d08c3c349 in __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x23349) #19 0x55ba6f2e60e4 in _start ../sysdeps/x86_64/start.S:115 SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow pretty.c:1712 in format_and_pad_commit Shadow bytes around the buggy address: 0x0c067fff8120: fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa fd fd 0x0c067fff8130: fd fd fa fa fd fd fd fd fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa 0x0c067fff8140: fd fd fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fa 0x0c067fff8150: fa fa fd fd fd fd fa fa 00 00 00 fa fa fa fd fd 0x0c067fff8160: fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa =>0x0c067fff8170: fd fd fd fa fa[fa]00 00 00 fa fa fa 00 00 00 fa 0x0c067fff8180: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0c067fff8190: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0c067fff81a0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0c067fff81b0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0c067fff81c0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa Shadow byte legend (one shadow byte represents 8 application bytes): Addressable: 00 Partially addressable: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 Heap left redzone: fa Freed heap region: fd Stack left redzone: f1 Stack mid redzone: f2 Stack right redzone: f3 Stack after return: f5 Stack use after scope: f8 Global redzone: f9 Global init order: f6 Poisoned by user: f7 Container overflow: fc Array cookie: ac Intra object redzone: bb ASan internal: fe Left alloca redzone: ca Right alloca redzone: cb Luckily enough, this would only cause us to copy the out-of-bounds data into the formatted commit in case we really had an ANSI sequence preceding our buffer.

An out-of-bounds read can be triggered when parsing an incomplete padding format string passed via `--pretty=format` or in Git archives when files are marked with the `export-subst` gitattribute. This bug exists since we have introduced support for truncating output via the `trunc` keyword a7f01c6 (pretty: support truncating in %>, %< and %><, 2013-04-19). Before this commit, we used to find the end of the formatting string by using strchr(3P). This function returns a `NULL` pointer in case the character in question wasn't found. The subsequent check whether any character was found thus simply checked the returned pointer. After the commit we switched to strcspn(3P) though, which only returns the offset to the first found character or to the trailing NUL byte. As the end pointer is now computed by adding the offset to the start pointer it won't be `NULL` anymore, and as a consequence the check doesn't do anything anymore. The out-of-bounds data that is being read can in fact end up in the formatted string. As a consequence, it is possible to leak memory contents either by calling git-log(1) or via git-archive(1) when any of the archived files is marked with the `export-subst` gitattribute. ==10888==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on address 0x602000000398 at pc 0x7f0356047cb2 bp 0x7fff3ffb95d0 sp 0x7fff3ffb8d78 READ of size 1 at 0x602000000398 thread T0 #0 0x7f0356047cb1 in __interceptor_strchrnul /usr/src/debug/gcc/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_common_interceptors.inc:725 #1 0x563b7cec9a43 in strbuf_expand strbuf.c:417 #2 0x563b7cda7060 in repo_format_commit_message pretty.c:1869 #3 0x563b7cda8d0f in pretty_print_commit pretty.c:2161 #4 0x563b7cca04c8 in show_log log-tree.c:781 #5 0x563b7cca36ba in log_tree_commit log-tree.c:1117 #6 0x563b7c927ed5 in cmd_log_walk_no_free builtin/log.c:508 #7 0x563b7c92835b in cmd_log_walk builtin/log.c:549 #8 0x563b7c92b1a2 in cmd_log builtin/log.c:883 #9 0x563b7c802993 in run_builtin git.c:466 #10 0x563b7c803397 in handle_builtin git.c:721 #11 0x563b7c803b07 in run_argv git.c:788 #12 0x563b7c8048a7 in cmd_main git.c:923 #13 0x563b7ca99682 in main common-main.c:57 #14 0x7f0355e3c28f (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x2328f) #15 0x7f0355e3c349 in __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x23349) #16 0x563b7c7fe0e4 in _start ../sysdeps/x86_64/start.S:115 0x602000000398 is located 0 bytes to the right of 8-byte region [0x602000000390,0x602000000398) allocated by thread T0 here: #0 0x7f0356072faa in __interceptor_strdup /usr/src/debug/gcc/libsanitizer/asan/asan_interceptors.cpp:439 #1 0x563b7cf7317c in xstrdup wrapper.c:39 #2 0x563b7cd9a06a in save_user_format pretty.c:40 #3 0x563b7cd9b3e5 in get_commit_format pretty.c:173 #4 0x563b7ce54ea0 in handle_revision_opt revision.c:2456 #5 0x563b7ce597c9 in setup_revisions revision.c:2850 #6 0x563b7c9269e0 in cmd_log_init_finish builtin/log.c:269 #7 0x563b7c927362 in cmd_log_init builtin/log.c:348 #8 0x563b7c92b193 in cmd_log builtin/log.c:882 #9 0x563b7c802993 in run_builtin git.c:466 #10 0x563b7c803397 in handle_builtin git.c:721 #11 0x563b7c803b07 in run_argv git.c:788 #12 0x563b7c8048a7 in cmd_main git.c:923 #13 0x563b7ca99682 in main common-main.c:57 #14 0x7f0355e3c28f (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x2328f) #15 0x7f0355e3c349 in __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x23349) #16 0x563b7c7fe0e4 in _start ../sysdeps/x86_64/start.S:115 SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow /usr/src/debug/gcc/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_common_interceptors.inc:725 in __interceptor_strchrnul Shadow bytes around the buggy address: 0x0c047fff8020: fa fa fd fd fa fa 00 06 fa fa 05 fa fa fa fd fd 0x0c047fff8030: fa fa 00 02 fa fa 06 fa fa fa 05 fa fa fa fd fd 0x0c047fff8040: fa fa 00 07 fa fa 03 fa fa fa fd fd fa fa 00 00 0x0c047fff8050: fa fa 00 01 fa fa fd fd fa fa 00 00 fa fa 00 01 0x0c047fff8060: fa fa 00 06 fa fa 00 06 fa fa 05 fa fa fa 05 fa =>0x0c047fff8070: fa fa 00[fa]fa fa fd fa fa fa fd fd fa fa fd fd 0x0c047fff8080: fa fa fd fd fa fa 00 00 fa fa 00 fa fa fa fd fa 0x0c047fff8090: fa fa fd fd fa fa 00 00 fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0c047fff80a0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0c047fff80b0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0c047fff80c0: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa Shadow byte legend (one shadow byte represents 8 application bytes): Addressable: 00 Partially addressable: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 Heap left redzone: fa Freed heap region: fd Stack left redzone: f1 Stack mid redzone: f2 Stack right redzone: f3 Stack after return: f5 Stack use after scope: f8 Global redzone: f9 Global init order: f6 Poisoned by user: f7 Container overflow: fc Array cookie: ac Intra object redzone: bb ASan internal: fe Left alloca redzone: ca Right alloca redzone: cb ==10888==ABORTING Fix this bug by checking whether `end` points at the trailing NUL byte.

The return type of both `utf8_strwidth()` and `utf8_strnwidth()` is `int`, but we operate on string lengths which are typically of type `size_t`. This means that when the string is longer than `INT_MAX`, we will overflow and thus return a negative result. This can lead to an out-of-bounds write with `--pretty=format:%<1)%B` and a commit message that is 2^31+1 bytes long: ================================================================= ==26009==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on address 0x603000001168 at pc 0x7f95c4e5f427 bp 0x7ffd8541c900 sp 0x7ffd8541c0a8 WRITE of size 2147483649 at 0x603000001168 thread T0 #0 0x7f95c4e5f426 in __interceptor_memcpy /usr/src/debug/gcc/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_common_interceptors.inc:827 #1 0x5612bbb1068c in format_and_pad_commit pretty.c:1763 #2 0x5612bbb1087a in format_commit_item pretty.c:1801 #3 0x5612bbc33bab in strbuf_expand strbuf.c:429 #4 0x5612bbb110e7 in repo_format_commit_message pretty.c:1869 #5 0x5612bbb12d96 in pretty_print_commit pretty.c:2161 #6 0x5612bba0a4d5 in show_log log-tree.c:781 #7 0x5612bba0d6c7 in log_tree_commit log-tree.c:1117 #8 0x5612bb691ed5 in cmd_log_walk_no_free builtin/log.c:508 #9 0x5612bb69235b in cmd_log_walk builtin/log.c:549 #10 0x5612bb6951a2 in cmd_log builtin/log.c:883 #11 0x5612bb56c993 in run_builtin git.c:466 #12 0x5612bb56d397 in handle_builtin git.c:721 #13 0x5612bb56db07 in run_argv git.c:788 #14 0x5612bb56e8a7 in cmd_main git.c:923 #15 0x5612bb803682 in main common-main.c:57 #16 0x7f95c4c3c28f (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x2328f) #17 0x7f95c4c3c349 in __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x23349) #18 0x5612bb5680e4 in _start ../sysdeps/x86_64/start.S:115 0x603000001168 is located 0 bytes to the right of 24-byte region [0x603000001150,0x603000001168) allocated by thread T0 here: #0 0x7f95c4ebe7ea in __interceptor_realloc /usr/src/debug/gcc/libsanitizer/asan/asan_malloc_linux.cpp:85 #1 0x5612bbcdd556 in xrealloc wrapper.c:136 #2 0x5612bbc310a3 in strbuf_grow strbuf.c:99 #3 0x5612bbc32acd in strbuf_add strbuf.c:298 #4 0x5612bbc33aec in strbuf_expand strbuf.c:418 #5 0x5612bbb110e7 in repo_format_commit_message pretty.c:1869 #6 0x5612bbb12d96 in pretty_print_commit pretty.c:2161 #7 0x5612bba0a4d5 in show_log log-tree.c:781 #8 0x5612bba0d6c7 in log_tree_commit log-tree.c:1117 #9 0x5612bb691ed5 in cmd_log_walk_no_free builtin/log.c:508 #10 0x5612bb69235b in cmd_log_walk builtin/log.c:549 #11 0x5612bb6951a2 in cmd_log builtin/log.c:883 #12 0x5612bb56c993 in run_builtin git.c:466 #13 0x5612bb56d397 in handle_builtin git.c:721 #14 0x5612bb56db07 in run_argv git.c:788 #15 0x5612bb56e8a7 in cmd_main git.c:923 #16 0x5612bb803682 in main common-main.c:57 #17 0x7f95c4c3c28f (/usr/lib/libc.so.6+0x2328f) SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow /usr/src/debug/gcc/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_common_interceptors.inc:827 in __interceptor_memcpy Shadow bytes around the buggy address: 0x0c067fff81d0: fd fd fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fa 0x0c067fff81e0: fa fa fd fd fd fd fa fa fd fd fd fd fa fa fd fd 0x0c067fff81f0: fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa 0x0c067fff8200: fd fd fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fd fa fa 00 00 00 fa 0x0c067fff8210: fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa fd fd =>0x0c067fff8220: fd fa fa fa fd fd fd fa fa fa 00 00 00[fa]fa fa 0x0c067fff8230: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0c067fff8240: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0c067fff8250: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0c067fff8260: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 0x0c067fff8270: fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa Shadow byte legend (one shadow byte represents 8 application bytes): Addressable: 00 Partially addressable: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 Heap left redzone: fa Freed heap region: fd Stack left redzone: f1 Stack mid redzone: f2 Stack right redzone: f3 Stack after return: f5 Stack use after scope: f8 Global redzone: f9 Global init order: f6 Poisoned by user: f7 Container overflow: fc Array cookie: ac Intra object redzone: bb ASan internal: fe Left alloca redzone: ca Right alloca redzone: cb ==26009==ABORTING Now the proper fix for this would be to convert both functions to return an `size_t` instead of an `int`.

When "update-index --unresolve $path" cannot find the resolve-undo record for the path the user requested to unresolve, it stuffs the blobs from HEAD and MERGE_HEAD to stage #2 and stage #3 as a fallback. For this reason, the operation does not even start unless both "HEAD" and "MERGE_HEAD" exist. This is suboptimal in a few ways: * It does not recreate stage #1. Even though it is a correct design decision not to do so (because it is impossible to recreate in general cases, without knowing how we got there, including what merge strategy was used), it is much less useful not to have that information in the index. * It limits the "unresolve" operation only during a conflicted "git merge" and nothing else. Other operations like "rebase", "cherry-pick", and "switch -m" may result in conflicts, and the user may want to unresolve the conflict that they incorrectly resolved in order to redo the resolution, but the fallback would not kick in. * Most importantly, the entire "unresolve" operation is disabled after a conflicted merge is committed and MERGE_HEAD is removed, even though the index has perfectly usable resolve-undo records. By lazily reading the HEAD and MERGE_HEAD only when we need to go to the fallback codepath, we will allow cases where resolve-undo records are available (which is 100% of the time, unless the user is reading from an index file created by Git more than 10 years ago) to proceed even after a conflicted merge was committed, during other mergy operations that do not use MERGE_HEAD, or after the result of such mergy operations has been committed.

The helper function is responsible for inspecting the index and deciding if the path is merged, is conflicted in a way that we would want to handle, or is conflicted in a way that we cannot handle.

It is tempting to think of "files and directories" of the current directory as valid inputs to the add and set subcommands of git sparse-checkout. However, in non-cone mode, they often aren't and using them as potential completions leads to *many* forms of confusion: Issue #1. It provides the *wrong* files and directories. For git sparse-checkout add we always want to add files and directories not currently in our sparse checkout, which means we want file and directories not currently present in the current working tree. Providing the files and directories currently present is thus always wrong. For git sparse-checkout set we have a similar problem except in the subset of cases where we are trying to narrow our checkout to a strict subset of what we already have. That is not a very common scenario, especially since it often does not even happen to be true for the first use of the command; for years we required users to create a sparse-checkout via git sparse-checkout init git sparse-checkout set <args...> (or use a clone option that did the init step for you at clone time). The init command creates a minimal sparse-checkout with just the top-level directory present, meaning the set command has to be used to expand the checkout. Thus, only in a special and perhaps unusual cases would any of the suggestions from normal file and directory completion be appropriate. Issue #2: Suggesting patterns that lead to warnings is unfriendly. If the user specifies any regular file and omits the leading '/', then the sparse-checkout command will warn the user that their command is problematic and suggest they use a leading slash instead. Issue #3: Completion gets confused by leading '/', and provides wrong paths. Users often want to anchor their patterns to the toplevel of the repository, especially when listing individual files. There are a number of reasons for this, but notably even sparse-checkout encourages them to do so (as noted above). However, if users do so (via adding a leading '/' to their pattern), then bash completion will interpret the leading slash not as a request for a path at the toplevel of the repository, but as a request for a path at the root of the filesytem. That means at best that completion cannot help with such paths, and if it does find any completions, they are almost guaranteed to be wrong. Issue #4: Suggesting invalid patterns from subdirectories is unfriendly. There is no per-directory equivalent to .gitignore with sparse-checkouts. There is only a single worktree-global $GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout file. As such, paths to files must be specified relative to the toplevel of a repository. Providing suggestions of paths that are relative to the current working directory, as bash completion defaults to, is wrong when the current working directory is not the worktree toplevel directory. Issue #5: Paths with special characters will be interpreted incorrectly The entries in the sparse-checkout file are patterns, not paths. While most paths also qualify as patterns (though even in such cases it would be better for users to not use them directly but prefix them with a leading '/'), there are a variety of special characters that would need special escaping beyond the normal shell escaping: '*', '?', '\', '[', ']', and any leading '#' or '!'. If completion suggests any such paths, users will likely expect them to be treated as an exact path rather than as a pattern that might match some number of files other than 1. Because of the combination of the above issues, turn completion off for the `set` and `add` subcommands of `sparse-checkout` when in non-cone mode, but leave a NEEDSWORK comment specifying what could theoretically be done if someone wanted to provide completion rules that were more helpful than harmful.

Issue #4: Suggesting invalid patterns from subdirectories is unfriendly. There is no per-directory equivalent to .gitignore with sparse-checkouts. There is only a single worktree-global $GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout file. As such, paths to files must be specified relative to the toplevel of a repository. Providing suggestions of paths that are relative to the current working directory, as bash completion defaults to, is wrong when the current working directory is not the worktree toplevel directory. Issue #5: Paths with special characters will be interpreted incorrectly The entries in the sparse-checkout file are patterns, not paths. While most paths also qualify as patterns (though even in such cases it would be better for users to not use them directly but prefix them with a leading '/'), there are a variety of special characters that would need special escaping beyond the normal shell escaping: '*', '?', '\', '[', ']', and any leading '#' or '!'. If completion suggests any such paths, users will likely expect them to be treated as an exact path rather than as a pattern that might match some number of files other than 1. However, despite the first four issues, we can note that _if_ users are using tab completion, then they are probably trying to specify a path in the index. As such, we transform their argument into a top-level-rooted pattern that matches such a file. For example, if they type: git sparse-checkout add Make<TAB> we could "complete" to git sparse-checkout add /Makefile or, if they ran from the Documentation/technical/ subdirectory: git sparse-checkout add m<TAB> we could "complete" it to: git sparse-checkout add /Documentation/technical/multi-pack-index.txt Note in both cases I use "complete" in quotes, because we actually add characters both before and after the argument in question, so we are kind of abusing "bash completions" to be "bash completions AND beginnings". The fifth issue is a bit stickier, especially when you consider that we not only need to deal with escaping issues because of special meanings of patterns in sparse-checkout & gitignore files, but also that we need to consider escaping issues due to ls-files needing to sometimes quote or escape characters, and because the shell needs to escape some characters. The multiple interacting forms of escaping could get ugly; this patch makes no attempt to do so and simply documents that we decided to not deal with those corner cases for now but at least get the common cases right.

When reusing objects from a pack, we keep track of a set of one or more `reused_chunk`s, corresponding to sections of one or more object(s) from a source pack that we are reusing. Each chunk contains two pieces of information: - the offset of the first object in the source pack (relative to the beginning of the source pack) - the difference between that offset, and the corresponding offset in the pack we're generating The purpose of keeping track of these is so that we can patch an OFS_DELTAs that cross over a section of the reuse pack that we didn't take. For instance, consider a hypothetical pack as shown below: (chunk #2) __________... / / +--------+---------+-------------------+---------+ ... | <base> | <other> | (unused) | <delta> | ... +--------+---------+-------------------+---------+ \ / \______________/ (chunk #1) Suppose that we are sending objects "base", "other", and "delta", and that the "delta" object is stored as an OFS_DELTA, and that its base is "base". If we don't send any objects in the "(unused)" range, we can't copy the delta'd object directly, since its delta offset includes a range of the pack that we didn't copy, so we have to account for that difference when patching and reassembling the delta. In order to compute this value correctly, we need to know not only where we are in the packfile we're assembling (with `hashfile_total(f)`) but also the position of the first byte of the packfile that we are currently reusing. Currently, this works just fine, since when reusing only a single pack those two values are always identical (because verbatim reuse is the first thing pack-objects does when enabled after writing the pack header). But when reusing multiple packs which have one or more gaps, we'll need to account for these two values diverging. Together, these two allow us to compute the reused chunk's offset difference relative to the start of the reused pack, as desired.

Aborted What happens is this: 0. We construct a bogus pack with a duplicate object in it and trigger index-pack. 1. We spawn a bunch of worker threads to resolve deltas (on my system it is 16 threads). 2. One of the threads sees the duplicate object and bails by calling exit(), taking down all of the threads. This is expected and is the point of the test. 3. At the time exit() is called, we may still be spawning threads from the main process via pthread_create(). LSan hooks thread creation to update its book-keeping; it has to know where each thread's stack is (so it can find entry points for reachable memory). So it calls pthread_getattr_np() to get information about the new thread. That may allocate memory that must be freed with a matching call to pthread_attr_destroy(). Probably LSan does that immediately, but if you're unlucky enough, the exit() will happen while it's between those two calls, and the allocated pthread_attr_t appears as a leak. This isn't a real leak. It's not even in our code, but rather in the LSan instrumentation code. So we could just ignore it. But the false positive can cause people to waste time tracking it down. It's possibly something that LSan could protect against (e.g., cover the getattr/destroy pair with a mutex, and then in the final post-exit() check for leaks try to take the same mutex). But I don't know enough about LSan to say if that's a reasonable approach or not (or if my analysis is even completely correct). In the meantime, it's pretty easy to avoid the race by making creation of the worker threads "atomic". That is, we'll spawn all of them before letting any of them start to work. That's easy to do because we already have a work_lock() mutex for handing out that work. If the main process takes it, then all of the threads will immediately block until we've finished spawning and released it. This shouldn't make any practical difference for non-LSan runs. The thread spawning is quick, and could happen before any worker thread gets scheduled anyway. Probably other spots that use threads are subject to the same issues. But since we have to manually insert locking (and since this really is kind of a hack), let's not bother with them unless somebody experiences a similar racy false-positive in practice.

Commit d6a8c58 (midx-write.c: support reading an existing MIDX with `packs_to_include`, 2024-05-29) changed the MIDX generation machinery to support reading from an existing MIDX when writing a new one. Unfortunately, the rest of the MIDX generation machinery is not prepared to deal with such a change. For instance, the function responsible for adding to the object ID fanout table from a MIDX source (midx_fanout_add_midx_fanout()) will gladly add objects from an existing MIDX for some fanout level regardless of whether or not those objects came from packs that are to be included in the subsequent MIDX write. This results in broken pseudo-pack object order (leading to incorrect object traversal results) and segmentation faults, like so (generated by running the added test prior to the changes in midx-write.c): #0 0x000055ee31393f47 in midx_pack_order (ctx=0x7ffdde205c70) at midx-write.c:590 #1 0x000055ee31395a69 in write_midx_internal (object_dir=0x55ee32570440 ".git/objects", packs_to_include=0x7ffdde205e20, packs_to_drop=0x0, preferred_pack_name=0x0, refs_snapshot=0x0, flags=15) at midx-write.c:1171 #2 0x000055ee31395f38 in write_midx_file_only (object_dir=0x55ee32570440 ".git/objects", packs_to_include=0x7ffdde205e20, preferred_pack_name=0x0, refs_snapshot=0x0, flags=15) at midx-write.c:1274 [...] In stack frame #0, the code on midx-write.c:590 is using the new pack ID corresponding to some object which was added from the existing MIDX. Importantly, the pack from which that object was selected in the existing MIDX does not appear in the new MIDX as it was excluded via `--stdin-packs`. In this instance, the pack in question had pack ID "1" in the existing MIDX, but since it was excluded from the new MIDX, we never filled in that entry in the pack_perm table, resulting in: (gdb) p *ctx->pack_perm@2 $1 = {0, 1515870810} Which is what causes the segfault above when we try and read: struct pack_info *pack = &ctx->info[ctx->pack_perm[i]]; if (pack->bitmap_pos == BITMAP_POS_UNKNOWN) pack->bitmap_pos = 0; Fundamentally, we should be able to read information from an existing MIDX when generating a new one. But in practice the midx-write.c code assumes that we won't run into issues like the above with incongruent pack IDs, and often makes those assumptions in extremely subtle and fragile ways. Instead, let's avoid reading from an existing MIDX altogether, and stick with the pre-d6a8c58675 implementation. Harden against any regressions in this area by adding a test which demonstrates these issues. Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

When performing multi-pack reuse, reuse_partial_packfile_from_bitmap() is responsible for generating an array of bitmapped_pack structs from which to perform reuse. In the multi-pack case, we loop over the MIDXs packs and copy the result of calling `nth_bitmapped_pack()` to construct the list of reusable paths. But we may also want to do pack-reuse over a single pack, either because we only had one pack to perform reuse over (in the case of single-pack bitmaps), or because we explicitly asked to do single pack reuse even with a MIDX[^1]. When this is the case, the array we generate of reusable packs contains only a single element, which is either (a) the pack attached to the single-pack bitmap, or (b) the MIDX's preferred pack. In 795006f (pack-bitmap: gracefully handle missing BTMP chunks, 2024-04-15), we refactored the reuse_partial_packfile_from_bitmap() function and stopped assigning the pack_int_id field when reusing only the MIDX's preferred pack. This results in an uninitialized read down in try_partial_reuse() like so: ==7474==WARNING: MemorySanitizer: use-of-uninitialized-value #0 0x55c5cd191dde in try_partial_reuse pack-bitmap.c:1887:8 #1 0x55c5cd191dde in reuse_partial_packfile_from_bitmap_1 pack-bitmap.c:2001:8 #2 0x55c5cd191dde in reuse_partial_packfile_from_bitmap pack-bitmap.c:2105:3 #3 0x55c5cce0bd0e in get_object_list_from_bitmap builtin/pack-objects.c:4043:3 #4 0x55c5cce0bd0e in get_object_list builtin/pack-objects.c:4156:27 #5 0x55c5cce0bd0e in cmd_pack_objects builtin/pack-objects.c:4596:3 #6 0x55c5ccc8fac8 in run_builtin git.c:474:11 which happens when try_partial_reuse() tries to call midx_pair_to_pack_pos() when it tries to reject cross-pack deltas. Avoid the uninitialized read by ensuring that the pack_int_id field is set in the single-pack reuse case by setting it to either the MIDX preferred pack's pack_int_id, or '-1', in the case of single-pack bitmaps. In the latter case, we never read the pack_int_id field, so the choice of '-1' is intentional as a "garbage in, garbage out" measure. Guard against further regressions in this area by adding a test which ensures that we do not throw out deltas from the preferred pack as "cross-pack" due to an uninitialized pack_int_id. [^1]: This can happen for a couple of reasons, either because the repository is configured with 'pack.allowPackReuse=(true|single)', or because the MIDX was generated prior to the introduction of the BTMP chunk, which contains information necessary to perform multi-pack reuse.

The read of `size` when calling `read_attr_from_buf` unconditionally may read from an uninitialized value. `read_attr_from_buf` checks that `buf` is non-NULL before reading from `size`, but by then it's already too late: the uninitialized read will have happened already. Furthermore, there's no guarantee that the compiler won't reorder things so that it checks `size` before checking `!buf`. Make the call to `read_attr_from_buf` conditional on `buf` being non-NULL, ensuring that `size` is not read if it's never set.

It was recently reported that concurrent reads and writes may cause the reftable backend to segfault. The root cause of this is that we do not properly keep track of reftable readers across reloads. Suppose that you have a reftable iterator and then decide to reload the stack while iterating through the iterator. When the stack has been rewritten since we have created the iterator, then we would end up discarding a subset of readers that may still be in use by the iterator. The consequence is that we now try to reference deallocated memory, which of course segfaults. One way to trigger this is in t5616, where some background maintenance jobs have been leaking from one test into another. This leads to stack traces like the following one: + git -c protocol.version=0 -C pc1 fetch --filter=blob:limit=29999 --refetch origin AddressSanitizer:DEADLYSIGNAL ================================================================= ==657994==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x7fa0f0ec6089 (pc 0x55f23e52ddf9 bp 0x7ffe7bfa1700 sp 0x7ffe7bfa1700 T0) ==657994==The signal is caused by a READ memory access. #0 0x55f23e52ddf9 in get_var_int reftable/record.c:29 #1 0x55f23e53295e in reftable_decode_keylen reftable/record.c:170 #2 0x55f23e532cc0 in reftable_decode_key reftable/record.c:194 #3 0x55f23e54e72e in block_iter_next reftable/block.c:398 #4 0x55f23e5573dc in table_iter_next_in_block reftable/reader.c:240 #5 0x55f23e5573dc in table_iter_next reftable/reader.c:355 #6 0x55f23e5573dc in table_iter_next reftable/reader.c:339 #7 0x55f23e551283 in merged_iter_advance_subiter reftable/merged.c:69 #8 0x55f23e55169e in merged_iter_next_entry reftable/merged.c:123 #9 0x55f23e55169e in merged_iter_next_void reftable/merged.c:172 #10 0x55f23e537625 in reftable_iterator_next_ref reftable/generic.c:175 #11 0x55f23e2cf9c6 in reftable_ref_iterator_advance refs/reftable-backend.c:464 #12 0x55f23e2d996e in ref_iterator_advance refs/iterator.c:13 #13 0x55f23e2d996e in do_for_each_ref_iterator refs/iterator.c:452 #14 0x55f23dca6767 in get_ref_map builtin/fetch.c:623 #15 0x55f23dca6767 in do_fetch builtin/fetch.c:1659 #16 0x55f23dca6767 in fetch_one builtin/fetch.c:2133 #17 0x55f23dca6767 in cmd_fetch builtin/fetch.c:2432 #18 0x55f23dba7764 in run_builtin git.c:484 #19 0x55f23dba7764 in handle_builtin git.c:741 #20 0x55f23dbab61e in run_argv git.c:805 #21 0x55f23dbab61e in cmd_main git.c:1000 #22 0x55f23dba4781 in main common-main.c:64 #23 0x7fa0f063fc89 in __libc_start_call_main ../sysdeps/nptl/libc_start_call_main.h:58 #24 0x7fa0f063fd44 in __libc_start_main_impl ../csu/libc-start.c:360 #25 0x55f23dba6ad0 in _start (git+0xadfad0) (BuildId: 803b2b7f59beb03d7849fb8294a8e2145dd4aa27) While it is somewhat awkward that the maintenance processes survive tests in the first place, it is totally expected that reftables should work alright with concurrent writers. Seemingly they don't. The only underlying resource that we need to care about in this context is the reftable reader, which is responsible for reading a single table from disk. These readers get discarded immediately (unless reused) when calling `reftable_stack_reload()`, which is wrong. We can only close them once we know that there are no iterators using them anymore. Prepare for a fix by converting the reftable readers to be refcounted.

The incremental MIDX bitmap work was done prior to 9d4855e (midx-write: fix leaking buffer, 2024-09-30), and causes test failures in t5334 in a post-9d4855eef3 world.
