[PATCH v7 5/6] refs: explicitly return failure_errno from parse_loose_ref_contents

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

 



From: Han-Wen Nienhuys <hanwen@xxxxxxxxxx>

The EINVAL error from parse_loose_ref_contents is used in files-backend
to create a custom error message.

In untangling this we discovered a tricky edge case. The
refs_read_special_head() function was relying on
parse_loose_ref_contents() setting EINVAL.

By converting it to use "saved_errno" we can migrate away from "errno"
in this part of the code entirely, and do away with an existing
"save_errno" pattern, its only purpose was to not clobber the "errno"
we previously needed at the end of files_read_raw_ref().

Let's assert that we can do that by not having files_read_raw_ref()
itself operate on *failure_errno in addition to passing it on. Instead
we'll assert that if we return non-zero we actually do set errno, thus
assuring ourselves and callers that they can trust the resulting
"failure_errno".
