I'm using git 2.24 (or, a variant of that packaged my distro -- I can try to build my own if this is deemed not reproducible), and I feel like I've been seeing a regression here: Previously, when reverting multiple commits (with the default --edit behavior), as soon as I'm done editing the first revert commit message, the second revert commit pops up an editor, and I'm on my way.

Thanks for the report, this is indeed a regression in v2.24.0: it bisects down to a47ba3c777 (rebase -i: check for updated todo after squash and reword, 2019-08-19) [Cc'ing Phillip].

* [PATCH] sequencer: don't re-read todo for revert and cherry-pick 2019-11-23 9:53 ` Phillip Wood @ 2019-11-23 17:20 ` SZEDER Gábor 2019-11-23 21:14 ` Johannes Schindelin 2019-11-24 4:49 ` Junio C Hamano 0 siblings, 2 replies; 16+ messages in thread From: SZEDER Gábor @ 2019-11-23 17:20 UTC (permalink / raw) To: Junio C Hamano; +Cc: git, Brian Norris, Phillip Wood, SZEDER Gábor When 'git revert' or 'git cherry-pick --edit' is invoked with multiple commits, then after editing the first commit message is finished both these commands should continue with processing the second commit and launch another editor for its commit message, assuming there are no conflicts, of course. Alas, this inadvertently changed with commit a47ba3c777 (rebase -i: check for updated todo after squash and reword, 2019-08-19): after editing the first commit message is finished, both 'git revert' and 'git cherry-pick --edit' exit with error, claiming that "nothing to commit, working tree clean". The reason for the changed behaviour is twofold: - Prior to a47ba3c777 the up-to-dateness of the todo list file was only checked after 'exec' instructions, and that commit moved those checks to the common code path. The intention was that this check should be performed after instructions spawning an editor ('squash' and 'reword') as well, so the ongoing 'rebase -i' notices when the user runs a 'git rebase --edit-todo' while squashing/rewording a commit message. However, as it happened that check is now performed even after 'revert' and 'pick' instructions when they involved editing the commit message. And 'revert' by default while 'pick' optionally (with 'git cherry-pick --edit') involves editing the commit message. - When invoking 'git revert' or 'git cherry-pick --edit' with multiple commits they don't read a todo list file but assemble the todo list in memory, thus the associated stat data used to check whether the file has been updated is all zeroed out initially. Then the sequencer writes all instructions (including the very first) to the todo file, executes the first 'revert/pick' instruction, and after the user finished editing the commit message the changes of a47ba3c777 kick in, and it checks whether the todo file has been modified. The initial all-zero stat data obviously differs from the todo file's current stat data, so the sequencer concludes that the file has been modified. Technically it is not wrong, of course, because the file just has been written indeed by the sequencer itself, though the file's contents still match what the sequencer was invoked with in the beginning. Consequently, after re-reading the todo file the sequencer executes the same first instruction _again_, thus ending up in that "nothing to commit" situation. The todo list was never meant to be edited during multi-commit 'git revert' or 'cherry-pick' operations, so perform that "has the todo file been modified" check only when the sequencer was invoked as part of an interactive rebase.

I think we should update the stat data after we write the todo list. ag/sequencer-todo-updates changes the rebase startup sequence to avoid the initial read that populates the stat data. There's a subtle difference in the todo list handling between rabese and cherry-pick/revert. The list written by rebase does not include the commit currently being picked but it does for cherry-pick/revert. This means that rebase is not subject to this bug in ag/sequencer-todo-updates as although it re-reads the todo list because the stat data is zero the list does not contain the commit we've just picked. > >> The todo list was never meant to be edited during multi-commit 'git >> revert' or 'cherry-pick' operations, so perform that "has the todo >> file been modified" check only when the sequencer was invoked as part >> of an interactive rebase. > > OK.

I'm not sure what you mean by this This is what I had before I saw Gábor's patch (the tests are pretty similar but I think we should check that the messages of all the picks are actually edited with --edit - that does not seem to be checked by the current tests) Note this does not include updating the stat data after writing the todo list yet as I've only just thought about that.

Well, yes and no. No, because we are dealing with regression in v2.24.0 here, so the simpler the fix the better it is for maint. I don't think a fix can get any simpler than my patch, with or without the suggestions from Phillip. Yes, we should definitely consider updating the stat data after the sequencer writes the todo list, or any other options with which the sequencer could notice a modified todo list file with less subtlety. Alas, there is a big can of worms in that direction, see the patch below, and we have to be very careful going that way, so I think it's only viable in the long term, but less suitable as a regression fix for maint. (Hrm, perhaps I spent too many words on the all zeroed out stat data, and managed to sidetrack you a bit...) --- >8 --- Subject: [PATCH] t3429: try to protect against a potential racy todo file problem During an interactive rebase session the user can run basically any commands with an 'exec' instruction, including commands that modify the todo list of the ongoing rebase. Similarly, the user might choose to modify the todo list while editing a commit message for a 'reword' or a 'squash' instruction. The ongoing interactive rebase process should be able to notice the modified todo file and re-read it to follow the updated instructions. This has been working well for the 'exec' instruction for some time, but for 'reword' and 'squash' it has been fixed only recently in a47ba3c777 (rebase -i: check for updated todo after squash and reword, 2019-08-19). To notice a changed todo file the sequencer stores the file's stat data in its 'struct todo_list' instance, and compares it with the file's current stat data after 'reword', 'squash' and 'exec' instructions. If the two stat data doesn't match, it re-reads the todo file. Sounds simple, but there are some subtleties going on here: - The 'struct todo_list' holds the stat data from the time when the todo file was last read. - This stat data in 'struct todo_list' is not updated when the sequencer itself writes the todo file. - Before executing each instruction during an interactive rebase, the sequencer always updates the todo file by removing the just-about-to-be-executed instruction. This changes the file's size and inode [1]. Consequently, when the sequencer looks at the stat data after a 'reword', 'squash' or 'exec' instruction, it most likely finds that they differ, even when the user didn't modify the todo list at all! This is not an issue in practice, it just wastes a few cycles on re-reading the todo list that matches what the sequencer already has in memory anyway. However, an unsuspecting Git developer might try to "fix" it by simply updating the stat data each time the sequencer writes the todo list for an interactive rebase. On first sight it looks quite sensible and straightforward, but we have to be very careful when doing that, because potential racy problems lie that way. It is possible to overwrite the todo list file without modifying either its inode or size, and if such an overwrite were to happen in the same second when the file was last read (our stat data has one second granularity by default), then the actual stat data on the file system would match the stat data that the sequencer has in memory. Consequently, such a modification to the todo list file would go unnoticed. Add a test to 't3429-rebase-edit-todo.sh' that modifies the todo list during an interactive rebase in a way that the file's stat data very likely doesn't change. Since we have no control over ctime repeat the test a few times, just like we do in the racy git and racy split index tests (t0010 and t1701). This test succeeds right now because of all the above, but it does fail most of the time if the stat data is naively updated when writing the todo file [2]. Hopefully this test will help prevent us from introducing such racy problems if we ever change how the sequencer looks out for modified todo list files. This new test only checks what it's supposed to when it doesn't change the size of the todo file while modifying it, thus it critically depends on the todo file format. And the todo file format did change in the past: early on it stored abbreviated commit object ids, but since 75c6976655 (rebase -i: fix short SHA-1 collision, 2013-08-23) it stores full object ids. Perhaps it will change in the future as well, so be extra defensive about this, and check that the file size before and after the edit actually match, and complain with a "bug in the test script" if they don't. [1] The todo file is written using the lockfile API, i.e. first to the lockfile, which is then moved to place, so the new file can't possibly have the same inode as the file it replaces. Note, however, that the file system might reuse inodes, so it is possible that the new todo file ends up with the same inode as is recorded in the 'struct todo_list' from the last time the file was read. [2] To trigger failure in the new test updating the stat data when writing the todo file like the diff below does. No other test in our test suite seems to fail with this change applied. diff --git a/sequencer.c b/sequencer.c index 3b05d0277d..b2acb7d536 100644 --- a/sequencer.c +++ b/sequencer.c @@ -2730,6 +2730,7 @@ static int save_todo(struct todo_list *todo_list, struct replay_opts *opts) struct lock_file todo_lock = LOCK_INIT; const char *todo_path = get_todo_path(opts); int next = todo_list->current, offset, fd; + struct stat st; /* * rebase -i writes "git-rebase-todo" without the currently executing @@ -2748,6 +2749,10 @@ static int save_todo(struct todo_list *todo_list, struct replay_opts *opts) if (commit_lock_file(&todo_lock) < 0) return error(_("failed to finalize '%s'"), todo_path); + if (stat(todo_path, &st) < 0) + return error(_("could not stat '%s'"), todo_path); + fill_stat_data(&todo_list->stat, &st); + if (is_rebase_i(opts) && next > 0) { const char *done = rebase_path_done(); int fd = open(done, O_CREAT | O_WRONLY | O_APPEND, 0666); Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> --- t/t3429-rebase-edit-todo.sh | 59 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 59 insertions(+) diff --git a/t/t3429-rebase-edit-todo.sh b/t/t3429-rebase-edit-todo.sh index 8739cb60a7..c80c139b47 100755 --- a/t/t3429-rebase-edit-todo.sh +++ b/t/t3429-rebase-edit-todo.sh @@ -52,4 +52,63 @@ test_expect_success 'todo is re-read after reword and squash' ' test_cmp expected actual ' +test_expect_success 'setup for racy tests' ' + write_script sequence-editor <<-EOS && + cat >.git/rebase-merge/git-rebase-todo <<-\EOF + r $(git rev-parse second^0) second + r $(git rev-parse third^0) third + EOF + EOS + + write_script commit-editor <<-\EOS && + read first_line <"$1" && + echo "$first_line - edited" >"$1" && + + todo=.git/rebase-merge/git-rebase-todo && + + if test "$first_line" = second + then + old_size=$(wc -c <"$todo") && + # Replace the "reword <full-oid> third" line with + # a different instruction of the same line length. + # Overwrite the file in-place, so the inode stays + # the same as well. + cat >"$todo" <<-EOF && + exec echo 0123456789012345678901234 >exec-cmd-was-run + EOF + new_size=$(wc -c <"$todo") && + + if test $old_size -ne $new_size + then + echo >&2 "error: bug in the test script: the size of the todo list must not change" + exit 1 + fi + fi + EOS + + cat >expect <<-\EOF + second - edited + first + EOF +' + +# This test can give false success if your machine is sufficiently +# slow or all trials happened to happen on second boundaries. + +for trial in 0 1 2 3 4 +do + test_expect_success "racy todo re-read #$trial" ' + git reset --hard third && + rm -rf exec-cmd-was-run && + + GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR=./sequence-editor \ + GIT_EDITOR=./commit-editor \ + git rebase -i HEAD^^ && + + test_path_is_file exec-cmd-was-run && + git log --format=%s >actual && + test_cmp expect actual + ' +done + test_done -- 2.24.0.532.ge18579ded8 ^ permalink raw reply related [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread

Of course, the simplest "fix" for regression is to revert the offending one, and anything else is a band-aid ;-). The question is which band-aid is the least risky and which one takes us the closest to the real solution. I tend to agree that forcing to skip checking no matter what the variable "check_todo" says unless is_rebase_i() qualifies as the band-aid that is the least risky. > Yes, we should definitely consider updating the stat data after the > sequencer writes the todo list, or any other options with which the > sequencer could notice a modified todo list file with less subtlety. > Alas, there is a big can of worms in that direction, see the patch > below, and we have to be very careful going that way, so I think it's > only viable in the long term, but less suitable as a regression fix > for maint.

No, I do not think so. Thinking about what we need to do in the longer term, while coming up with a shorter term fix, is a necessary step of gaining confidence in the latter.

Unfortunately, we already do have an issue here when the sequencer can overlook a modified todo list, but triggering it needs the lucky "alignment" of inodes as well.

It can be much more than just a few cycles, because the total number of parsed instructions from all the todo file re-reads can go quadratic with the number of rebased commits. The simple test below runs 'git rebase -i -x' on 1000 commits, which takes over 14seconds to run.

I know dscho was keen to avoid re-parsing the list all the time [1] presumably because of the quadratic behavior. (He also assumed most people were using ns stat times [2] but that appears not to be the case) Could we just compare the text of the todo list on disk to whats in todo->buf.buf (with an appropriate offset)?

(He also assumed most people > were using ns stat times [2] but that appears not to be the case) Nanosecond file timestamp comparisons are only enabled by the USE_NSEC macro, which is only defined if the USE_NSEC Makefile knob is enabled, but that is not enabled by default. Then there is the related NO_NSEC Makefile knob: # Define NO_NSEC if your "struct stat" does not have "st_ctim.tv_nsec" # available. This automatically turns USE_NSEC off. As Dscho mentioned in [2], we do disable nanosecond file timestamp comparisons in 'config.mak.uname' on a handful of platforms by setting NO_NSEC. This, however, does not mean that nanosec timestamps are enabled on other platforms by default. > Could we > just compare the text of the todo list on disk to whats in todo->buf.buf > (with an appropriate offset)?

The patch below (assuming thunderbird doesn't mangle it) reduces the time to run your bulk commit test from 30s to 7s, if I delete the condition block which checks the stat data it takes 4.7s on my (somewhat ancient) laptop. So there is a cost to the string comparison approach but it's much less that the full todo list parsing.

I first thought that unsetting *check_todo in do_pick_commit(), when !is_rebase_i(), was a clean solution. But sadly it is *not* a godo equivalent to Gábor's patch, because check_todo can be set to true without looking at is_rebase_i() in pick_commits() [*1*]. To ignore that setting where the variable's value is used, the hunk we see above in the beginning of this message is necessary. That was what I meant. I think the "This is what I had before" patch matches my "I first thought" version, so we were on the same page and both wrong ;-) Thanks. [Footnote] *1* I still do not know why a47ba3c7 ("rebase -i: check for updated todo after squash and reword", 2019-08-19) sets check_todo to true without looking at is_rebase_i().

That only happens if we're running a rebase as exec commands are not used by cherry-pick and revert so the unconditional setting that remains after my suggested fix should be safe.
