Subject: [PATCH 1/1] fsmonitor: skip sanity check if the index is split
Date: Fri, 08 Nov 2019 07:09:20 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8d69ba362261690e58b3879c33ac01c8888dc473.1573196960.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.458.git.1573196960.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Utsav Shah <utsav@dropbox.com>

The checks added in 3444ec2eb2 ("fsmonitor: don't fill bitmap with
entries to be removed", 2019-10-11), to ensure that the
fsmonitor_dirty bitmap does not have more bits than the index
do not play well with the split index.

git update-index --fsmonitor --split-index calls write_locked_index
which calls write_shared_index as well as write_split_index.
The first call fills up the fsmonitor_dirty bitmap,
and the second modifies the index such that istate->cache_nr is zero and
this assert is hit.

The test written does reproduce the error, but only flakily. There is
limited difference with GIT_TEST_FSMONITOR=fsmonitor-all or
GIT_TEST_FSMONITOR=fsmonitor-watchman, so the flakiness might come from
somewhere else, which I haven't tracked down.

The test also requires checkout of a new branch, and checking out back
to master. It's clear that the index gets into some poor state through
these operations, and there is a deeper bug somewhere.

At the very least, this patch mitigates an over-eager check for split
index users while maintaining good invariants for the standard case.
Also, I haven't been able to reproduce this with "standard" user
commands, like status/checkout/stash, so the blast radius seems limited.
