[PATCH 00/41] Add and use error_errno() and warning_errno()

[PATCH 00/41] Add and use error_errno() and warning_errno()

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

This is a spinoff from my worktree-move topic. This series adds
die_errno() companions, error_errno() and warning_errno(), and use them
where applicable to reduce the amount of typing (in future). Changes
are split by file (which explains the huge number of patches). I leave
builtin/apply.c and refs/files-backend.c untouched because they are
currently hot zones.

[PATCH 02/41] usage.c: add warning_errno() and error_errno()

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

Similar to die_errno(), these functions will append strerror()
automatically.

I had this patch in the series but excluded it before sending because
there is something wrong about it.

The patch shows two code blocks that follow the same pattern:
closesocket() then print an error with strerror(). The second block
suggests that closesocket() can change errno. But if that's true, the
first block should do the same.

Which is right? Fix the first block to save errno, or drop the saving
in the second block?

Rather than this static buffer, did you consider having the caller
pass in the buffer?

    static const char *fmt_with_err(char *buf, size_t n, const char *fmt)
    {
        ...
        snprintf(buf, n, "%s: %s", fmt, str_error);
        return buf;
    }

    void die_errno(const char *fmt, ...)
    {
        char fmtbuf[1024];
        ...
        die_routine(fmt_with_err(fmtbuf, sizeof(fmtbuf), fmt),
            params);
        ...
    }

Better? Worse? Indifferent?

Unlike other cases in this patch which already printed
strerror(errno), this one didn't, and the patch upgrades it to do so,
which is valid since errno will not be clobbered between the preceding
fopen() and this error_errno(). I see other patches in the series do
likewise.

The error("cannot read mbox %s"" just below this code doesn't deserve
the same treatment because strbuf_getwholeline() doesn't promise a
meaningful errno. Okay.

Despite the function name which may imply that it is consulting errno,
this change makes me feel slightly uncomfortable since it increases
coupling. Whereas consulting of errno had been explicit, with this
change, it becomes implicit, and someone changing the code needs to be
extra careful about ensuring that errno does not get clobbered.

Not a big objection, but a nagging doubt...

We could s/errno/err/ in this function and not convert to
error_errno(). Or we could delete this function and move the code back
to its only call site in process_path()?

Caller supplied buffer would be the way to go when multiple threads
could be showing errors and warnings, right?

It would not make too much of a difference for die(), though.

I think it can matter for die(). This is happening above the pluggable
die_routine() layer, so it's possible for an async task to call die()
which will end in pthread_exit(), while the main program is calling
die() to end in regular exit().

I imagine it's exceedingly unlikely, and of course both threads are
dying anyway, but it could result in some pretty weird memory errors.
It's probably worth taking precautions against, especially because it's
to easy to do so.

So, sum it up, the new fmt_with_err() will take a buffer and size.
die_errno() sticks to its static buffer as before. error_errno() and
warning_errno() can allocate 1k on stack to be more
multithread-friendly. Let me know if some other change is needed.

Yes, though note that die_errno() currently has a stack buffer, not a
static one. It should remain that way (and error_errno and warning_errno
should follow suit) to be friendly to multi-threading.

Both of these original had unwanted \n at the end, and the updated
one loses them, which is good.

These all used to use its own formatting, but will use "<message>: <errno>"
format like everybody else, which is good.

It may be a bit unclear from the context, but it uses errno that was
set when fopen() returned a NULL.

The changes in this patch are not faithful conversion like other
patches, but they are all good, I would say.

Thanks.

This deserves a mention in the log message.  pthread_create()
returns 0 on success and it returns "an error number" on error.  We
used to format that returned value with strerror().

I do not see anywhere in the updated code that copies ret back to
errno, which would mean die_errno() would use whatever happens to be
in errno, and the relationship between the returned value 'ret' and
the value that is in 'errno' at this point in the code is unclear to
me.

Not a new problem with this patch, but this would say

    warning: 'Makefile': Permission denied.

or whatever error we may happen to have hit.

I think we show strerror(errno) as an additional explanation and
there must be something _else_ that is the primary thing we would
want to say, e.g.

    warning: cannot remove 'Makefile': Permission denied.

Without that primary message from us, it looks somewhat wrong.

This also deserves a mention in the log message.  We didn't say what
we failed to remove, now we do, which is an improvement.

Thanks.  The earlier parts that lay the foundation looked good, and
most of the conversion of the callers were, too (I think there was
only one whose validity I wasn't sure about, though).

Some of the changes that are more than a straight and faithful
conversion, i.e. fixes to places that used to show an extra newline,
used to lack errno in the output, etc., deserve to be mentioned in
the log message of respective patches.

Thanks.

[PATCH v3 00/41] Add and use error_errno() and warning_errno()

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

Code changes compared to v2 is below (one incorrect conversion
reverted, two error message improvements). Other changes are text in
these commits, not shown as diff in this mail:

  [06/41] builtin/fetch.c: use error_errno()
  [08/41] builtin/mailsplit.c: use error_errno()
  [09/41] builtin/merge-file.c: use error_errno()
  [11/41] builtin/rm.c: use warning_errno()
  [14/41] builtin/worktree.c: use error_errno()
  [27/41] grep.c: use error_errno()

I didn't mention string format changes (e.g. from "abc (error)" to
"abc: error") in the commit messages though.

[PATCH v3 08/41] builtin/mailsplit.c: use error_errno()

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

There's one change, in split_mbox(), where an error() without strerror()
as argument is converted to error_errno(). This is correct because the
previous call is fopen (not shown in the context lines), which should
set errno if it returns NULL.

[PATCH v3 09/41] builtin/merge-file.c: use error_errno()

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

All these error() calls do not print error message previously, but
because when they are called, errno should be set. Use error_errno()
instead to give more information.

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

"errno" is already passed in as "err". Here we should use err instead of
errno. errno is probably a copy/paste mistake in e011054 (Teach
