[PATCH 5/6] commit-graph: tighten chain size check

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

 



When we open a commit-graph-chain file, if it's smaller than a single
entry, we just quietly treat that as ENOENT. That make some sense if the
file is truly zero bytes, but it means that "commit-graph verify" will
quietly ignore a file that contains garbage if that garbage happens to
be short.

Instead, let's only simulate ENOENT when the file is truly empty, and
otherwise return EINVAL. The normal graph-loading routines don't care,
but "commit-graph verify" will notice and complain about the difference.

It's not entirely clear to me that the 0-is-ENOENT case actually happens
in real life, so we could perhaps just eliminate this special-case
altogether. But this is how we've always behaved, so I'm preserving it
in the name of backwards compatibility (though again, it really only
matters for "verify", as the regular routines are happy to load what
they can).

There's a related issue which I didn't fix in this series, which is that
the "load" function does a truncating division of (size / hash_size + 1)
to find the number of entries (the +1 is for the newline). So a
less-than-hash-sized chunk of garbage at the end of the file will be
ignored.

The simplest way to fix that is that we can insist that the size mod
hash_size+1 is 0. But I was wary of being too picky here (e.g., what
about a file that doesn't end with newline) especially in a way that
affected more than just "verify".
