[RFC PATCH 1/3] Make read_gitfile and resolve_gitfile thread safe

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

 



Continue the work in commit: 3d7747e318532a36a263c61cdf92f2decb6424ff
to remove unsafe shared buffer usage in read_gitfile_gently.

Migrate read_gitfile_gently and resolve_gitfile_gently to take strbuf
out params to allocate their return values into, rather than returning
a view into a shared buffer.

Leave the shared buffer in case a caller passes null for this param (for
cases we haven't cleaned up yet).

Migrate callers of resolve_gitfile to resolve_gitfile_gently.

Notes:
    Open questions:
     - Is checking the return value of read_gitfile necessary if on error,
       we are supposed to die, or set the error field to a non-zero value?
     - Should we clean up the other call-sites of read_gitfile?
