<id>urn:sha1:34728d7f30c1af6cf48a72b807796b719ab1c111</id>
<content type='text'>
The open_istream_incore() function is the only direct user of
read_object_file_extended(), and the only caller which unsets the
lookup_replace flag. Since read_object_file_extended() is now just a
thin wrapper around oid_object_info_extended(), let's inline the call.
That will let us simplify read_object_file_extended() in the next patch.

The inlined version here is a few more lines because of the query setup,
but it's much more flexible, since we can pass (or omit) any flags we
want.

Note the updated comment in the istream struct definition. It was
already slightly wrong (we never called read_object(); it has been
read_object_file_extended() since day one), but should now be accurate.

<title>git-compat-util.h: use "UNUSED", not "UNUSED(var)"</title>

<content type='text'>
As reported in [1] the "UNUSED(var)" macro introduced in
2174b8c75de (Merge branch 'jk/unused-annotation' into next,
2022-08-24) breaks coccinelle's parsing of our sources in files where
it occurs.

Let's instead partially go with the approach suggested in [2] of
making this not take an argument. As noted in [1] "coccinelle" will
ignore such tokens in argument lists that it doesn't know about, and
it's less of a surprise to syntax highlighters.

This undoes the "help us notice when a parameter marked as unused is
actually use" part of 9b240347543 (git-compat-util: add UNUSED macro,
2022-08-19), a subsequent commit will further tweak the macro to
implement a replacement for that functionality.

Streaming "open" functions need to conform to the same virtual function
interface, but not every implementation needs every parameter. Mark the
unused ones as such to appease -Wunused-parameter.

<title>object-file.c: stop dying in parse_loose_header()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:dccb32bf01411213297cde63cf689e476673a8ec</id>
<content type='text'>
Make parse_loose_header() return error codes and data instead of
invoking die() by itself.

For now we'll move the relevant die() call to loose_object_info() and
read_loose_object() to keep this change smaller. In a subsequent
commit we'll make read_loose_object() return an error code instead of
dying. We should also address the "allow_unknown" case (should be
moved to builtin/cat-file.c), but for now I'll be leaving it.

For making parse_loose_header() not die() change its prototype to
accept a "struct object_info *" instead of the "unsigned long *sizep"
it accepted before. Its callers can now check the populated populated
"oi-&gt;typep".

Because of this we don't need to pass in the "unsigned int flags"
which we used for OBJECT_INFO_ALLOW_UNKNOWN_TYPE, we can instead do
that check in loose_object_info().

This also refactors some confusing control flow around the "status"
variable. In some cases we set it to the return value of "error()",
i.e. -1, and later checked if "status &lt; 0" was true.

Since 93cff9a978e (sha1_loose_object_info: return error for corrupted
objects, 2017-04-01) the return value of loose_object_info() (then
named sha1_loose_object_info()) had been a "status" variable that be
any negative value, as we were expecting to return the "enum
object_type".

The only negative type happens to be OBJ_BAD, but the code still
assumed that more might be added. This was then used later in
e.g. c84a1f3ed4d (sha1_file: refactor read_object, 2017-06-21). Now
that parse_loose_header() will return 0 on success instead of the
type (which it'll stick into the "struct object_info") we don't need
to conflate these two cases in its callers.

Since parse_loose_header() doesn't need to return an arbitrary
"status" we only need to treat its "ret &lt; 0" specially, but can
idiomatically overwrite it with our own error() return. This along
with having made unpack_loose_header() return an "enum
unpack_loose_header_result" in an earlier commit means that we can
move the previously nested if/else cases mostly into the "ULHR_OK"
branch of the "switch" statement.

We should be less silent if we reach that "status = -1" branch, which
happens if we've got trailing garbage in loose objects, see
f6371f92104 (sha1_file: add read_loose_object() function, 2017-01-13)
for a better way to handle it. For now let's punt on it, a subsequent
commit will address that edge case.

<title>object-file.c: return ULHR_TOO_LONG on "header too long"</title>

<content type='text'>
Split up the return code for "header too long" from the generic
negative return value unpack_loose_header() returns, and report via
error() if we exceed MAX_HEADER_LEN.

As a test added earlier in this series in t1006-cat-file.sh shows
we'll correctly emit zlib errors from zlib.c already in this case, so
we have no need to carry those return codes further down the
stack. Let's instead just return ULHR_TOO_LONG saying we ran into the
MAX_HEADER_LEN limit, or other negative values for "unable to unpack
&lt;OID&gt; header".

In a preceding commit we changed and documented unpack_loose_header()
from its previous behavior of returning any negative value or zero, to
only -1 or 0.

Let's add an "enum unpack_loose_header_result" type and use it for
these return values, and have the compiler assert that we're
exhaustively covering all of them.

<id>urn:sha1:01cab9767929c6c3faf4f4ad3b348639655f04fd</id>
<content type='text'>
Combine the unpack_loose_short_header(),
unpack_loose_header_to_strbuf() and unpack_loose_header() functions
into one.

The unpack_loose_header_to_strbuf() function was added in
46f034483eb (sha1_file: support reading from a loose object of unknown
type, 2015-05-03).

Its code was mostly copy/pasted between it and both of
unpack_loose_header() and unpack_loose_short_header(). We now have a
single unpack_loose_header() function which accepts an optional
"struct strbuf *" instead.

I think the remaining unpack_loose_header() function could be further
simplified, we're carrying some complexity just to be able to emit a
garbage type longer than MAX_HEADER_LEN, we could alternatively just
say "we found a garbage type &lt;first 32 bytes&gt;..." instead. But let's
leave the current behavior in place for now.

Make the parse_loose_header_extended() function public and remove the
parse_loose_header() wrapper. The only direct user of it outside of
object-file.c itself was in streaming.c, that caller can simply pass
the required "struct object-info *" instead.

This change is being done in preparation for teaching
read_loose_object() to accept a flag to pass to
parse_loose_header(). It isn't strictly necessary for that change, we
could simply use parse_loose_header_extended() there, but will leave
the API in a better end state.

It would be a better end-state to have already moved the declaration
of these functions to object-store.h to avoid the forward declaration
of "struct object_info" in cache.h, but let's leave that cleanup for
some other time.

<title>streaming.c: move {open,close,read} from vtable to "struct git_istream"</title>

Move the definition of the structure around the open/close/read
functions introduced in 46bf043807c (streaming: a new API to read from
the object store, 2011-05-11) to instead populate "close" and "read"
members in the "struct git_istream".

This gets us rid of an extra pointer deference, and I think makes more
sense. The "close" and "read" functions are the primary interface to
the stream itself.

Let's also populate a "open" callback in the same struct. That's now
used by open_istream() after istream_source() decides what "open"
function should be used. This isn't needed to get rid of the
"stream_vtbl" variables, but makes sense for consistency.

<content type='text'>
Change the streaming interface to stop passing around the "struct
object_info" the open() functions.

As seen in 7ef2d9a2604 (streaming: read non-delta incrementally from a
pack, 2011-05-13) which introduced the "st-&gt;u.in_pack" assignments
being changed here only the open_istream_pack_non_delta() path need
these.

So let's instead do this when preparing the selected callback in the
istream_source() function. This might also allow the compiler to
reduce the lifetime of the "oi" variable, as we've moved it from
"git_istream()" to "istream_source()".
