[PATCH] fsck: avoid looking at NULL blob->object

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Commit 159e7b080b (fsck: detect gitmodules files,
2018-05-02) taught fsck to look at the content of
.gitmodules files. If the object turns out not to be a blob
at all, we just complain and punt on checking the content.
And since this was such an obvious and trivial code path, I
didn't even bother to add a test.

Except it _does_ do one non-trivial thing, which is call the
report() function, which wants us to pass a pointer to a
"struct object". Which we don't have (we have only a "struct
object_id"). So we erroneously passed the NULL object, which
ends up segfaulting.

It seems like we could refactor report() to just take the
object_id itself. But we pass the object pointer along to
a callback function, and indeed this ends up in
builtin/fsck.c's objreport() which does want to look at
other parts of the object (like the type).

So instead, let's just use lookup_unknown_object() to get
the real "struct object", and pass that.

The problem is in v2.17.1, and of course the v2.18 release candidates.
