[PATCH 00/31] Hash function transition part 16

[PATCH 00/31] Hash function transition part 16

[brian m. carlson]

This is the sixteenth series of hash function transition patches. This
series contains various fixes, mostly focused around the pack bitmap
code, the HTTP code, the archive code, the index, and parts of our Perl
code.

This is the second to last series required for a "stage 0" Git; that is,
one that can operate only with SHA-256, but not SHA-1. Observers will
notice a focus on getting rid of sha1_to_hex and null_sha1 as well as
the normal types of transforms; the next series will remove both of
these.

This series modifies the index code such that it can work with a hash
algorithm of any length. In order to do so, the structs involved were
changed to use flex array members and not store the hash in a fixed
array member. This design was chosen over a multiple struct approach
because it ensures that we have one consistent, well-tested code path
that works for both algorithms, as well as any algorithms in the future.
Comments on the approach or arguments for other designs are welcome.

This is a rather long series, but most of it is concentrated in a few
small areas, so hopefully it's a little easier to review because of
that.

To preview the series that come after this, there is an additional
series for stage 0 Git (object-id-part17 plus part of sha256-fixes),
plus potentially several series of test fixes (test-fixes-part4 and part
of sha256-fixes). Following that, I plan to introduce, under the
DEVELOPER Makefile flag, the actual code which supports
extensions.objectFormat and makes it so that it works
(transition-stage-4).

Instead of using a specific invalid hard-coded object ID, produce one
of the appropriate length by using test_oid.

[PATCH 02/31] pack-bitmap: make bitmap header handling hash agnostic

[brian m. carlson]

Increase the checksum field in struct bitmap_disk_header to be
GIT_MAX_RAWSZ bytes in length and ensure that we hash the proper number
of bytes out when computing the bitmap checksum.

are no longer limited to SHA-1.

[PATCH 09/31] notes: replace sha1_to_hex

[brian m. carlson]

Replace the uses of sha1_to_hex in this function with hash_to_hex to
allow the use of SHA-256 as well.  Rename some variables since this code
is no longer limited to SHA-1.

[PATCH 10/31] object-store: rename and expand packed_git's sha1 member

[brian m. carlson]

This member is used to represent the pack checksum of the pack in
question.  Expand this member to be GIT_MAX_RAWSZ bytes in length so it
works with longer hashes and rename it to be "hash" instead of "sha1".
This transformation was made with a change to the definition and the
following semantic patch:

[PATCH 11/31] builtin/name-rev: make hash-size independent

[brian m. carlson]

Use the_hash_algo when parsing instead of GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ so that this
function works with any size hash.  Rename the variable forty to
counter, as this is a better name and is independent of the hash size.

[PATCH 15/31] builtin/pull: make hash-size independent

[brian m. carlson]

Instead of using get_oid_hex and GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ, use parse_oid_hex to
avoid the need for a constant and simplify the code.

[PATCH 17/31] http-backend: allow 64-character hex names

[brian m. carlson]

In an SHA-256-backed repository using the http-backend handler for dumb
protocol clients, it may be necessary to access the raw packs using
their full SHA-256-specified names.  Allow packs and loose objects to be
accessed using their full SHA-256-specified 64-character hex names.

[PATCH 18/31] http-push: remove remaining uses of sha1_to_hex

Since sha1_to_hex is limited to SHA-1, switch all remaining uses of it
in this file to hash_to_hex or oid_to_hex.  Modify update_remote to take
a pointer to struct object_id, and since we don't modify that parameter
in the function, set it to be const as well.

[PATCH 25/31] archive: convert struct archiver_args to object_id

[brian m. carlson]

Change the commit_sha1 member to be called "commit_oid" and change it to
be a pointer to struct object_id.  Additionally, update two uses of
GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ to use the_hash_algo instead.

[PATCH 29/31] read-cache: read data in a hash-independent way

[brian m. carlson]

Index entries are structured with a variety of fields up front, followed
by a hash and one or two flags fields.  Because the hash field is stored
in the middle of the structure, it's difficult to use one fixed-size
structure that easily allows access to the hash and flags fields.
Adjust the structure to hold the maximum amount of data that may be
needed using a member called "data" and read and write this field
independently in the various places that need to read and write the
structure.

[PATCH 30/31] Git.pm: make hash size independent

[brian m. carlson]

The cat_blob function was matching on exactly 40 hex characters.  This
won't work with SHA-256, which uses 64-character hex object IDs.  While
it should be fine to simply match any number of hex characters since the
output is space delimited, be extra safe by matching either exactly 40
or exactly 64 hex characters.

[PATCH 31/31] gitweb: make hash size independent

[brian m. carlson]

Gitweb has several hard-coded 40 values throughout it to check for
values that are passed in or acquired from Git.  To simplify the code,
introduce a regex variable that matches either exactly 40 or exactly 64
hex characters, and use this variable anywhere we would have previously
hard-coded a 40 in a regex.

Similarly, switch the code that looks for deleted diffinfo information
to look for either 40 or 64 zeros, and update one piece of code to use
this function.  Finally, when formatting a log line, allow an
abbreviated describe output to contain up to 64 characters.

I had trouble understanding to what pair you are referring. I _think_
you mean "pair of hex digits". If so, perhaps:

    /* hex oid + '/' between each pair of hex digits + NUL */

(but not worth a re-roll).

Yes, I did. I fully expect to do at least one reroll here, so I'll
update it when I do.

I wonder if the fixed multiplier deserves a comment explaining that
this is reserving enough space for a hex representation with '/'
between each digit pair plus NUL. Which leads to the next question: Is
there is GIT_MAX_HEXSZ constant? If so, this might be more clearly
represented (or not) by taking advantage of that value.

Also, there are a number of hardcoded 60's in the code earlier in this
file, such as:

    if ((max_packsize && (pack_size + 60 + len) > max_packsize)
        || (pack_size + 60 + len) < pack_size)
        cycle_packfile();

Is that just a coincidence or is it related to the 60 characters
allocated for 'realpath'?

What exactly did the 46 represent and how does it relate to 'hexsz'?
Stated differently, why didn't this become:

    the_hash_algo->hexsz + 6'

?

While you're here, perhaps fix the comment so it doesn't talk about

Sounds good, although...

Isn't this really just a "struct object_id"? Why don't we want to use
that here?

I suspect it may be partially because our khash is storing raw sha1s.
But shouldn't we also be converted that to store object_ids?

In particular:

This last line (which is actually from the previous patch) is going to
always truncate the stored data to 20 bytes, isn't it?

I think we need to define a kh_oid. We have the "set" version already in
oidset.[ch]; I think we need to make that more public.

That command currently prints the pax comment in tar archives if it
looks like a SHA1 hash based on its length.  It should continue to do
so, and _also_ show longer hashes.  Your change makes it _only_ show
those longer hashes.

So it could check for all known valid hash lengths in turn, or accept
any payload length between 40 and the_hash_algo->hexsz, or loosen up
totally and show comments of any length.

Not a problem introduced by this patch, but is the 'p + 1' in the
error message correct? 'p' has already been incremented via '++p' in
the call to parse_oid_hex() to point at what _should_ be the start of
OID, so one would think that the error message would want to print out
whatever was found there rather than what was found one character
after the start of OID.

This might be going a bit overboard but I tried this with a variant
where...

> +# A regex matching a valid object ID.
> +our $oid_regex = qr/(?:[0-9a-fA-F]{40}(?:[0-9a-fA-F]{24})?)/;

Instead of this dense regex I did:

    my $sha1_len = 40;
    my $sha256_extra_len = 24;
    my $sha256_len = $sha1_len + $sha256_extra_len;

    sub oid_nlen_regex {
    	my $len = shift;
    	my $hchr = qr/[0-9a-fA-F]/;
    	return qr/(?:(?:$hchr){$len})/
    }

    our $oid_regex;
    {
        my $x = oid_nlen_regex($sha1_len);
        my $y = oid_nlen_regex($sha256_extra_len);
        $oid_regex = qr/(?:$x(?:$y)?)/
    }

Then most of the rest of this is the same, e.g.:

But...

E.g. here we can do call oid_nlen_regex("7,64") to produce this blurb.

And here, maybe nobody cares, but we now implicitly accept mixed SHA-1 &
SHA-256 input. Whereas we could have a helper on top of the above code
like:

    sub oid_nlen_prefix_infix_regex {
        my $nlen = shift;
        my $prefix = shift;
        my $infix = shift;

        my $rx = oid_nlen_regex($nlen);

        return qr/^\Q$prefix\E$rx\Q$infix\E$rx$/;
    }

And then e.g.:

    } elsif ($line =~ oid_nlen_prefix_infix_regex($sha1_len, "index ", "..") ||
             $line =~ oid_nlen_prefix_infix_regex($sha256_len, "index ", "..")) {

So only accept SHA1..SHA1 or SHA256..SHA256, not SHA1..SHA256 or
SHA256..SHA1.

The gitweb code doesn't load Git.pm now, but does anyone know a reason
for why we'd avoid any perl/* dependency in the gitweb code? If not the
regex here & in gitweb could be factored into e.g. a tiny Git::OID
library which would either just expose a $GIT::OID_REGEX, or something
like the sort of interface (might not be worth it) that I suggested in
my feedback to 31/31.

Both this & the follow-up 29/31 look scary since this is an on-disk
structure and this patch & the next one rather than implementing some
transition, just changes the structs & code we use to read & write to
use the current hash size.

So what are we going to do when the "current" size is SHA-256 and our
on-disk cache is SHA-1? It seems like with this we'd at best (I haven't
tested) throw away the SHA-1 UC data, and at worst introduce some silent
persistent read failure.

In any case that seems like something we should have tests for with an
on-disk format, i.e. write in one hash, see what happens when we read in
another, and perhaps instead of not understanding SHA-1 hashes in
SHA-256 mode we'd read the SHA-1 and consult the SHA-1<->SHA-256 lookup
table we're going to be eventually maintaining on the side?

Similar to my comment on 28/31 I may be missing something, but this is
the part where we're parsing the ref advertisement from a remote
repository, which may e.g. be SHA-1, and our local "the hash algo" may
be SHA-256, no?

So isn't this a point where we need to accept both, and parse it into
some structure where we mark it as either/or SHA-1 or SHA-256, and late
or consult SHA-1<->SHA-256 lookup tables etc.?

I skimmed most of this, but decided to stop when I came to "am" since I
was just going to start repeating the same question I had in other
patches, i.e. for the parts of this that deal with on-disk formats how
does just e.g. search-replacing s/40/64/ interact with needing to read
existing files (bitmaps, "am" patches, untracked cache etc.) which may
be in the "old" format.

There is such a constant. I'll add a comment and see if I can write it
in a way that makes it more intuitive what we're computing.

That's an interesting question. It looks like these are indeed related
to the hash size, but they're not related to the realpath call above.
I'll convert them as well.

Good catch. I believe that 46 is the number of bytes in "tree %s\n",
which is the smallest possible commit (a root commit without an author
or committer).

I'll fix this misconversion.

I think probably there are some more places that we could convert here.
There may have been one or two places that weren't convertible because
we ended up passing data from some sort of buffer around. I'll take
another look.

No, I don't think it does. The _sha1 variant stores pointers to unsigned
char, while the _oid variant stores the entire struct object_id (not
just a pointer to it). We don't care how much data the pointer points
to.

I wrote this quite a bit before that code came in, which is probably why
I didn't do that originally. I seem to recall last time I looked at this
that there was some reason that hoisting this didn't work as I expected
due to header include order, but I'll take a look and see if I can
figure out a way to do this.

So it turns out I wrote a different patch for this in a later series,
but I like this style better. I'm going to squash my existing patches
together and then rework them such that they're based off yours.

My technique iterated over the entire header, comparing the entire
header, which is much less elegant than this solution.

That's a good question. The current design has everything in the .git
directory other than the loose object table and the pack indices in one
algorithm. That is, the untracked cache extension, like the rest of the
index, will always be SHA-256 when the objects are stored in SHA-256.

Having mixed algorithms in the .git directory would add a lot of
complexity.

Correct. The current plan is that when the transition code is fully
implemented, we'll read object IDs from the user in whatever algorithms
we support, translate them into the default algorithm, and then use
them.

No, I think what's misleading here is that the member for both is named
"hash". This is a struct packed_git, not a struct object_id. The reason
I didn't convert this to a struct object_id is because this isn't
actually an object ID, it's a pack checksum hash.

I've tried to be diligent about separating the object IDs from other
hashes because I think it makes it easier to reason about the code, but
also because it may help us avoid tricky behavior when we have to deal
with multiple algorithms for input and storage.

Thanks. I don't want to derail you too much if you have a series of
other changes on top. And moving to "hash" here is a step in the right
direction. But if we can take it all the way to object_id while we're
looking at it, I think that's preferable.

Oh, you're right. I was thinking it actually stored the 20-byte
sequences, but I was just reading it wrong. Sorry for the confusion.

I think one potential issue here is that some distributors bundle the
Perl modules with git send-email and not gitweb, and they're packaged
independently. I'm not opposed to seeing a patch to do that, but it
probably belongs in its own series.

In packaging terms that one's easy to juggle, FWIW I'm just aware of
e.g. RedHat packaging perl-Git as its own thing depended on by git-svn,
git-email & friends, not anyone who packages it with git-send-email
specifically.

But according to gitweb/README it's also meant to be used as a
stand-alone script. So:

 * You can wget it from the git.git repo & run it
 * You can run it with any (reasonable) version of git
 * If you're missing perl modules, those are all on CPAN (just CGI.pm
   should be missing these days)

Making it depend on any module we ship would break all those things. I
don't know if anyone cares, but avoiding this very minor copy/pasting
seems like a bad reason to wake that particular dragon.
