2019-06-15searchview: add link at bottom to reverse results
I could not find a place to put the link the top without making navigation too cluttered. Putting it at the bottom of the page seems reasonable...
2019-06-15searchview: support negative offsets to reverse ordering
Taking a hint from Perl array access, we'll allow negative offsets for the 'o' parameter and to reverse the sort order.

Oops :x
2019-06-14search: require PublicInbox::Inbox ref here
No sense in supporting multiple methods of initialization for an internal class.
2019-06-14searchidx: require PublicInbox::Inbox (or InboxWritable) ref
PublicInbox::Inbox objects have minimal dependencies, so drop code to support old tests which existed before the PublicInbox::Inbox object came into existence.

2019-06-14xcpdb: support resharding v2 repos
v2 repos are sometimes created on machines where CPU parallelization exceeds the capability of the storage devices. In that case, users may reshard the Xapian DB to any smaller, positive integer to avoid excessive overhead and contention when bottlenecked by slow storage. Resharding can also be used to increase shard count after hardware upgrades.
2019-06-14xcpdb: use destination shard as progress prefix
For M:N resharding, we'll want to display the number from the new shard number.
2019-06-14xapcmd: preserve indexlevel based on the destination
To support M:N resharding, we need to ensure we store the indexlevel in the destination shard, rather than the originating one.
2019-06-14v2writable: use a smaller default for Xapian partitions
Apparently 16 CPUs (probably HT) and SATA storage is common these days. Having excessive Xapian partitions leads to contention and excessive FD/space use. So set a smaller default but continue allowing user-specified values to bump this up.
2019-06-14git: remove cat_file sub callback interface
We weren't using it, and in retrospect, it makes no sense to use this API cat_file for giant responses which can't read quickly with minimal context-switching (or sanely fit into memory for Email::Simple/Email::MIME). For giant blobs which we don't want slurped in memory, we'll spawn a short-lived git-cat-file process like we do in ViewVCS. Otherwise, monopolizing a git-cat-file process for a giant blob is harmful to other PSGI/NNTP users. A better interface is coming which will be more suitable for for batch processing of "small" objects such as commits and email blobs.
2019-06-14nntp: filter out duplicate Message-IDs for leafnode
It's the unfortunate reality that there are some clients which reuse Message-IDs (in which we generate + use another) or set multiple Message-IDs on their own. While the v2 format addresses that, NNTP clients such as leafnode are not always prepared to deal with that case. So, ensure NNTP clients only see a single Message-ID, and show the others as 'X-Alt-Message-ID'.
2019-06-13nntp: ensure Message-ID is not folded for leafnode
Leafnode cannot handle Message-ID headers which are too long and require folding via Email::Simple::Header. Since there are already many of these messages in git with the header already folded, we need to handle the unfolding when emitting the message via NNTP. As far as we know, Leafnode is the only client software incapable of handling this case.
2019-06-13nntp: add Path: header for leafnode
Apparently leafnode just needs any junk in the Path: header. Lets not waste bandwidth and just use a single byte to keep leafnode happy. Cc: Dave Taht <dave@taht.net>
2019-06-13searchmsg: remove unused ->get subroutine
It's obsolete and unusable since our search schema version 15; which made the Xapian document ID correspond to the NNTP article number.
2019-06-12searchidx: improve error message when Xapian fails
Make it easier to detect if a partition is corrupt.
2019-06-10v2writable: replace: kill git processes before reindexing
Xapian on Linux <3.15 has trouble with coprocesses since it used fork() for locking and would hold onto pipes used for git unnecessarily.
2019-06-10edit|purge: improve output on rewrites
Fill in undef as "(unchanged)" when displaying commits and prefix the epoch name.
2019-06-10ds: stop caring about event flags set by epoll/poll/kqueue
If we got something to write, then write it. Otherwise, try reading; and continue dealing with errors which normally occur along the way. Trying to read requests while we need to buffer in luserspace is suicidal from a memory management standpoint. The only adjustment needed for existing callers is EvCleanup; where we need to ensure we're always calling the dummy EvCleanup::event_write callback to accomplish nothing.
2019-06-10ds: do not distinguish between POLLHUP and POLLERR
In my experience, both are worthless as any normal read/write call path will be wanting to check errors and deal with them appropriately; so we can just call event_read, for now. Eventually, there'll probably be only one callback for dealing with all in/out/err/hup events to simplify logic, especially w.r.t TLS socket negotiation.
2019-06-10ds: remove read method, here, too
Since we stop using it in NNTP, we don't need it at all.
2019-06-10nntp: use sysread to append to existing buffer
We already do this in PublicInbox::HTTP, as it's superior to DS::read in this regard. Initially (when I started writing NNTP.pm, I wanted to use Danga::Socket's read buffering and push_back_read (removed in DS) but quickly figured out it wasn't useful at all for dealing with trickling clients.
2019-06-10ds: remove steal_socket method
We won't be needing it, not even for TLS support.
2019-06-10ds: remove {fd} field
Storing the file descriptor was redundant as we can quickly call fileno($self->{sock}) and not have to store an extra hash table entry. Multiple sources of truth leads to confusion, confusion leads to bugs.
2019-06-10ds: reduce Errno imports and drop ->close reason
ECONNRESET and EPIPE are common on a big Internet filled with unreliable connections, and there's nothing our code can do about it. So no point in wasting code to log them and there are plenty of tracing tools to choose from if such diagnostics are needed.
2019-06-10ds: cleanup Errno imports and favor constant comparisons
Stop importing unused constants, and favor integer comparisons of `$!' over `$!{EFOO}' hash lookups. Integer comparisons are slightly faster, even: Benchmark: timing 30 iterations of cmp_eq, cmp_ne, hash_hit, hash_miss... cmp_eq: 1 wallclock secs ( 1.61 usr + 0.00 sys = 1.61 CPU) @ 18.63/s (n=30) cmp_ne: 2 wallclock secs ( 1.57 usr + 0.00 sys = 1.57 CPU) @ 19.11/s (n=30) hash_hit: 4 wallclock secs ( 3.85 usr + 0.00 sys = 3.85 CPU) @ 7.79/s (n=30) hash_miss: 4 wallclock secs ( 3.74 usr + 0.00 sys = 3.74 CPU) @ 8.02/s (n=30) #!/usr/bin/perl -w use Benchmark qw(:all); use Errno qw(EAGAIN EINTR); my ($r, $w); pipe($r, $w) or die 'pipe'; require IO::Handle; $r->blocking(0); my $buf; my $n = 30000; timethese(30, { hash_hit => sub { sysread($r, $buf, 1); for (0..$n) { next if $!{EAGAIN}; die 'FAIL'; } } , 'cmp_eq' => sub { sysread($r, $buf, 1); for (0..$n) { next if $! == EAGAIN; die 'FAIL'; } }, hash_miss => sub { sysread($r, $buf, 1); for (0..$n) { die 'FAIL' if $!{EINTR}; } }, 'cmp_ne' => sub { sysread($r, $buf, 1); for (0..$n) { die 'FAIL' if $! == EINTR; } }, });
2019-06-10ds: simplify write buffer accounting
Keeping track of write_buf_size was redundant and pointless when we can simply check the number of elements in the buffer array. Multiple sources of truth leads to confusion; confusion leads to bugs. Finally, rename the prefixes to 'wbuf' to ensure we loudly (instead of silently) break any external dependencies being ported over from Danga::Socket, as further changes are pending.
2019-06-10git: ensure ->modified returns an integer
We don't want to serialize timestamps as strings to JSON. I only noticed this bug on a 32-bit system.
2019-06-09admin: expose ->config
No point in forcing admin programs to reparse the config themselves; and we won't support multiple instances of it; unlike the WWW code.
2019-06-09AdminEdit: move editability checks from -purge
We'll be reusing the same logic for -edit
2019-06-09admin: beef up resolve_inboxes to handle purge options
We'll be using this in -edit, and maybe other admin-oriented tools for UI-consistency.
2019-06-09purge: start moving common options to AdminEdit module
Editing and purging are similar operations involving history rewrites, so there'll be common options and code between them.
2019-06-09admin: remove warning arg for unconfigured inboxes
We no longer make -index warn on it, no other code uses it; and working on unconfigured inboxes is totally reasonable for admins who are setting things up.
2019-06-09v2writable: implement ->replace call
Much of the existing purge code is repurposed to a general "replace" functionality. ->purge is simpler because it can just drop the information. Unlike ->purge, ->replace needs to edit existing git commits (in case of From: and Subject: headers) and reindex the modified message. We currently disallow editing of References:, In-Reply-To: and Message-ID headers because it can cause bad side effects with our threading (and our lack of rethreading support to deal with excessive matching from incorrect/invalid References).
2019-06-09import: switch to "replace_oids" interface for purge
Continuing the work by Eric Biederman in commit a118d58a402bd31b ("Import.pm: When purging replace a purged file with a zero length file"), we can use a generic OID replacement mechanism to implement purge.
2019-06-09import: extract_author_info becomes extract_commit_info
We will be reusing the same logic for extracting all the authorship and commit title logic for edits; so put it all into one sub.
2019-06-09v2writable: consolidate overview and indexing call
It's one ugly sub with lots of parameters, but it's better than calling a bunch of ugly subs with lots of parameters; as we'll be needing to call it again when reindexing for message replacements.
2019-06-09www: support $INBOX/git/$EPOCH.git for v2 cloning
And use it in manifest.js. To ease maintaining mirrors with grokmirror(1), we can accept a "git/" directory prefix before the epoch, and ".git" suffix after the epoch number. We maintain compatibility with "$INBOX/$EPOCH" cloning, of course, and it's still easier-to-type on the command-line.
2019-06-09www: wire up /$INBOX/manifest.js.gz, too
I can imagine myself just wanting to clone a single v2 inbox and all its epochs without thinking about include/exclude rules in a grokmirror config file.
2019-06-09wwwlisting: generate grokmirror-compatible manifest.js.gz
Support on-demand generation of "/manifest.js.gz" for inboxes. By default, this matches inboxes with URLs matching the given request hostname by default. This makes it easier to create full mirrors of several inboxes without needing to configure static file serving. cf. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/grokmirror/grokmirror.git
2019-06-09wwwlisting: allow hiding entries from manifest
Since we already have a mechanism for hiding repositories from the WWW listing, we might as well support another one for hiding repositories from the upcoming manifest.js.gz generation.
2019-06-05tighten up digit matches to ASCII for git output
While I don't expect git to suddenly start spewing non-ASCII digits in places I'd expect ASCII, this would make things easier for future hackers and reviewers.
2019-06-04www: require ASCII word characters for CSS filenames
Allowing admins to set non-ASCII CSS filenames could cause unnecessary problems for client and proxies.
2019-06-04www: require ASCII range for mbox downloads
We do not support many mboxrd download range specifications at the moment; but parsing non-ASCII characters isn't planned. This makes no difference aside from being able to return 404 slightly earlier than we would've in the past.
2019-06-04githttpbackend: require ASCII in path
We mainly support git-upload-pack; and maybe somebody uses git-receive-pack with this. Perhaps other (experimental) command names are acceptable. But it's unlikely anybody will want Unicode command names for git services.
2019-06-04require ASCII digits for local FS items
In case some BOFH decides to randomly create directories using non-ASCII digits all over the place.
2019-06-04www: require ASCII digit for git epoch
Don't inadvertantly serve git repos containing non-ASCII digit characters.
