git_check_attr() returns always 0.
Remove all the error handling code of the callers, which is never executed.
Change git_check_attr() to be a void function.

<title>attr: remove index from git_attr_set_direction()</title>

Since attr checking API now take the index, there's no need to set an
index in advance with this call. Most call sites are straightforward
because they either pass the_index or NULL (which defaults back to
the_index previously). There's only one suspicious call site in
unpack-trees.c where it sets a different index.

This code in unpack-trees is about to check out entries from the
new/temporary index after merging is done in it. The attributes will
be used by entry.c code to do crlf conversion if needed. entry.c now
respects struct checkout's istate field, and this field is correctly
set in unpack-trees.c, there should be no regression from this change.

Make the attr API take an index_state instead of assuming the_index in
attr code. All call sites are converted blindly to keep the patch
simple and retain current behavior. Individual call sites may receive
further updates to use the right index instead of the_index.

There is one ugly temporary workaround added in attr.c that needs some
more explanation.

Commit c24f3abace (apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip
diff and apply - 2017-08-19) forces one convert_to_git() call to NOT
read the index at all. But what do you know, we read it anyway by
falling back to the_index. When "istate" from convert_to_git is now
propagated down to read_attr_from_array() we will hit segfault
somewhere inside read_blob_data_from_index.

The right way of dealing with this is to kill "use_index" variable and
only follow "istate" but at this stage we are not ready for that:
while most git_attr_set_direction() calls just passes the_index to be
assigned to use_index, unpack-trees passes a different one which is
used by entry.c code, which has no way to know what index to use if we
delete use_index. So this has to be done later.

<title>Replace all die("BUG: ...") calls by BUG() ones</title>

<id>urn:sha1:033abf97fcbc247eabf915780181d947cfb66205</id>
<content type='text'>
In d8193743e08 (usage.c: add BUG() function, 2017-05-12), a new macro
was introduced to use for reporting bugs instead of die(). It was then
subsequently used to convert one single caller in 588a538ae55
(setup_git_env: convert die("BUG") to BUG(), 2017-05-12).

The cover letter of the patch series containing this patch
(cf 20170513032414.mfrwabt4hovujde2@sigill.intra.peff.net) is not
terribly clear why only one call site was converted, or what the plan
is for other, similar calls to die() to report bugs.

Let's just convert all remaining ones in one fell swoop.

This trick was performed by this invocation:

	sed -i 's/die("BUG: /BUG("/g' $(git grep -l 'die("BUG' \*.c)

<title>hashmap: add API to disable item counting when threaded</title>

<content type='text'>
This is to address concerns raised by ThreadSanitizer on the mailing list
about threaded unprotected R/W access to map.size with my previous "disallow
rehash" change (0607e10009ee4e37cb49b4cec8d28a9dda1656a4).

See:
https://public-inbox.org/git/adb37b70139fd1e2bac18bfd22c8b96683ae18eb.1502780344.git.martin.agren@gmail.com/

Add API to hashmap to disable item counting and thus automatic rehashing.
Also include API to later re-enable them.

When item counting is disabled, the map.size field is invalid.  So to
prevent accidents, the field has been renamed and an accessor function
hashmap_get_size() has been added.  All direct references to this
field have been been updated.  And the name of the field changed
to map.private_size to communicate this.

Here is the relevant output from ThreadSanitizer showing the problem:

of the compare function pointer in hashmap_init, but instead have the
correctly named void pointers to casted to the specific data structure.

<title>hashmap.h: compare function has access to a data field</title>

When using the hashmap a common need is to have access to caller provided
data in the compare function. A couple of times we abuse the keydata field
to pass in the data needed. This happens for example in patch-ids.c.

This patch changes the function signature of the compare function
to have one more void pointer available. The pointer given for each
invocation of the compare function must be defined in the init function
of the hashmap and is just passed through.

Documentation of this new feature is deferred to a later patch.
This is a rather mechanical conversion, just adding the new pass-through
parameter.  However while at it improve the naming of the fields of all
compare functions used by hashmaps by ensuring unused parameters are
prefixed with 'unused_' and naming the parameters what they are (instead
of 'unused' make it 'unused_keydata').
