http.c: clear the 'finished' member once we are done with it

2023-03-22T16:58:29Z

In http.c, the run_active_slot() function allows the given "slot" to make progress by calling step_active_slots() in a loop repeatedly, and the loop is not left until the request held in the slot completes. Ages ago, we used to use the slot->in_use member to get out of the loop, which misbehaved when the request in "slot" completes (at which time, the result of the request is copied away from the slot, and the in_use member is cleared, making the slot ready to be reused), and the "slot" gets reused to service a different request (at which time, the "slot" becomes in_use again, even though it is for a different request). The loop terminating condition mistakenly thought that the original request has yet to be completed. Today's code, after baa7b67d (HTTP slot reuse fixes, 2006-03-10) fixed this issue, uses a separate "slot->finished" member that is set in run_active_slot() to point to an on-stack variable, and the code that completes the request in finish_active_slot() clears the on-stack variable via the pointer to signal that the particular request held by the slot has completed. It also clears the in_use member (as before that fix), so that the slot itself can safely be reused for an unrelated request. One thing that is not quite clean in this arrangement is that, unless the slot gets reused, at which point the finished member is reset to NULL, the member keeps the value of &finished, which becomes a dangling pointer into the stack when run_active_slot() returns. Clear the finished member before the control leaves the function, which has a side effect of unconfusing compilers like recent GCC 12 that is over-eager to warn against such an assignment.

http: support CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS_STR

2023-03-12T19:31:54Z

The CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS (and matching CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS) flag was deprecated in curl 7.85.0, and using it generate compiler warnings as of curl 7.87.0. The path forward is to use CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS_STR, but we can't just do so unilaterally, as it was only introduced less than a year ago in 7.85.0. Until that version becomes ubiquitous, we have to either disable the deprecation warning or conditionally use the "STR" variant on newer versions of libcurl. This patch switches to the new variant, which is nice for two reasons: - we don't have to worry that silencing curl's deprecation warnings might cause us to miss other more useful ones - we'd eventually want to move to the new variant anyway, so this gets us set up (albeit with some extra ugly boilerplate for the conditional) There are a lot of ways to split up the two cases. One way would be to abstract the storage type (strbuf versus a long), how to append (strbuf_addstr vs bitwise OR), how to initialize, which CURLOPT to use, and so on. But the resulting code looks pretty magical: GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE allowed = GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE_INIT; if (...http is allowed...) GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_APPEND(&allowed, "http", CURLOPT_HTTP); and you end up with more "#define GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE" macros than actual code. On the other end of the spectrum, we could just implement two separate functions, one that handles a string list and one that handles bits. But then we end up repeating our list of protocols (http, https, ftp, ftp). This patch takes the middle ground. The run-time code is always there to handle both types, and we just choose which one to feed to curl. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin

http: prefer CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION to CURLOPT_IOCTLFUNCTION

2023-03-12T19:31:54Z

The IOCTLFUNCTION option has been deprecated, and generates a compiler warning in recent versions of curl. We can switch to using SEEKFUNCTION instead. It was added in 2008 via curl 7.18.0; our INSTALL file already indicates we require at least curl 7.19.4. But there's one catch: curl says we should use CURL_SEEKFUNC_{OK,FAIL}, and those didn't arrive until 7.19.5. One workaround would be to use a bare 0/1 here (or define our own macros). But let's just bump the minimum required version to 7.19.5. That version is only a minor version bump from our existing requirement, and is only a 2 month time bump for versions that are almost 13 years old. So it's not likely that anybody cares about the distinction. Switching means we have to rewrite the ioctl functions into seek functions. In some ways they are simpler (seeking is the only operation), but in some ways more complex (the ioctl allowed only a full rewind, but now we can seek to arbitrary offsets). Curl will only ever use SEEK_SET (per their documentation), so I didn't bother implementing anything else, since it would naturally be completely untested. This seems unlikely to change, but I added an assertion just in case. Likewise, I doubt curl will ever try to seek outside of the buffer sizes we've told it, but I erred on the defensive side here, rather than do an out-of-bounds read.

Revert "remote-curl: fall back to basic auth if Negotiate fails"

2021-05-19T01:09:58Z

This reverts commit 1b0d9545bb85912a16b367229d414f55d140d3be. That commit does fix the situation it intended to (avoiding Negotiate even when the credentials were provided in the URL), but it creates a more serious regression: we now never hit the conditional for "we had a username and password, tried them, but the server still gave us a 401". That has two bad effects: 1. we never call credential_reject(), and thus a bogus credential stored by a helper will live on forever 2. we never return HTTP_NOAUTH, so the error message the user gets is "The requested URL returned error: 401", instead of "Authentication failed". Doing this correctly seems non-trivial, as we don't know whether the Negotiate auth was a problem. Since this is a regression in the upcoming v2.23.0 release (for which we're in -rc0), let's revert for now and work on a fix separately. (Note that this isn't a pure revert; the previous commit added a test showing the regression, so we can now flip it to expect_success).

Use the final_oid_fn to finalize hashing of object IDs

2021-04-27T07:31:38Z

When we're hashing a value which is going to be an object ID, we want to zero-pad that value if necessary. To do so, use the final_oid_fn instead of the final_fn anytime we're going to create an object ID to ensure we perform this operation. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
