f870899864 dir: store EXC_FLAG_* values in unsigned integers
The values defined by the macro EXC_FLAG_* (1, 4, 8, 16) are stored
in fields of the structs "pattern" and "exclude", some functions
arguments and a local variable.  None of these uses its most
significant bit in any special way and there is no good reason to
use a signed integer for them.

And while we're at it, document "flags" of "exclude" to explicitly
state the values it's supposed to take on.

e0b8373510 write_untracked_extension: use FLEX_ALLOC helper
We perform unchecked additions when computing the size of a
"struct ondisk_untracked_cache". This is unlikely to have an
integer overflow in practice, but we'd like to avoid this
dangerous pattern to make further audits easier.

Note that there's one subtlety here, though.  We protect
ourselves against a NULL exclude_per_dir entry in our
source, and avoid calling strlen() on it, keeping "len" at
0. But later, we unconditionally memcpy "len + 1" bytes to
get the trailing NUL byte. If we did have a NULL
exclude_per_dir, we would read from bogus memory.

As it turns out, though, we always create this field
pointing to a string literal, so there's no bug. We can just
get rid of the pointless extra conditional.

50a6c8efa2 use st_add and st_mult for allocation size computation
If our size computation overflows size_t, we may allocate a
much smaller buffer than we expected and overflow it. It's
probably impossible to trigger an overflow in most of these
sites in practice, but it is easy enough convert their
additions and multiplications into overflow-checking
variants. This may be fixing real bugs, and it makes
auditing the code easier.

3733e69464 use xmallocz to avoid size arithmetic
We frequently allocate strings as xmalloc(len + 1), where
the extra 1 is for the NUL terminator. This can be done more
simply with xmallocz, which also checks for integer
overflow.

There's no case where switching xmalloc(n+1) to xmallocz(n)
is wrong; the result is the same length, and malloc made no
guarantees about what was in the buffer anyway. But in some
cases, we can stop manually placing NUL at the end of the
allocated buffer. But that's only safe if it's clear that
the contents will always fill the buffer.

In each case where this patch does so, I manually examined
the control flow, and I tried to err on the side of caution.

b32fa95fd8 convert trivial cases to ALLOC_ARRAY
Each of these cases can be converted to use ALLOC_ARRAY or
REALLOC_ARRAY, which has two advantages:

  1. It automatically checks the array-size multiplication
     for overflow.

  2. It always uses sizeof(*array) for the element-size,
     so that it can never go out of sync with the declared
     type of the array.

c62a91736a dir.c: support marking some patterns already matched
Given path "a" and the pattern "a", it's matched. But if we throw path
"a/b" to pattern "a", the code fails to realize that if "a" matches
"a" then "a/b" should also be matched.

When the pattern is matched the first time, we can mark it "sticky", so
that all files and dirs inside the matched path also matches. This is a
simpler solution than modify all match scenarios to fix that.

a60ea8fb66 dir.c: fix match_pathname()
Given the pattern "1/2/3/4" and the path "1/2/3/4/f", the pattern
prefix is "1/2/3/4". We will compare and remove the prefix from both
pattern and path and come to this code

	/*
	 * If the whole pattern did not have a wildcard,
	 * then our prefix match is all we need; we
	 * do not need to call fnmatch at all.
	 */
	if (!patternlen && !namelen)
		return 1;

where patternlen is zero (full pattern consumed) and the remaining
path in "name" is "/f". We fail to realize it's matched in this case
and fall back to fnmatch(), which also fails to catch it. Fix it.

0e0f761842 dir: simplify untracked cache "ident" field
It is not a good idea to compare kernel versions and disable
the untracked cache if it changes, as people may upgrade and
still want the untracked cache to work. So let's just
compare work tree locations and kernel name to decide if we
should disable it.

Also storing many locations in the ident field and comparing
to any of them can be dangerous if GIT_WORK_TREE is used with
different values. So let's just store one location, the
location of the current work tree.

The downside is that untracked cache can only be used by one
type of OS for now. Exporting a git repo to different clients
via a network to e.g. Linux and Windows means that only one
can use the untracked cache.

If the location changed in the ident field and we still want
an untracked cache, let's delete the cache and recreate it.

Note that if an untracked cache has been created by a
previous Git version, then the kernel version is stored in
the ident field. As we now compare with just the kernel
name the comparison will fail and the untracked cache will
be disabled until it's recreated.

This reverts commit 57534ee77d. The
feature added in that commit requires that patterns behave the same way
from anywhere. But some patterns can behave differently depending on
current "working" directory. The conditions to catch and avoid these
patterns are too loose. The untracked listing[1] and sparse-checkout
selection[2] can become incorrect as a result.

69fe31887b Merge branch 'dt/name-hash-dir-entry-fix'
The name-hash subsystem that is used to cope with case insensitive
filesystems keeps track of directories and their on-filesystem
cases for all the paths in the index by holding a pointer to a
randomly chosen cache entry that is inside the directory (for its
ce->ce_name component).  This pointer was not updated even when the
cache entry was removed from the index, leading to use after free.
This was fixed by recording the path for each directory instead of
borrowing cache entries and restructuring the API somewhat.

41284eb0f9 name-hash: don't reuse cache_entry in dir_entry
Stop reusing cache_entry in dir_entry; doing so causes a
use-after-free bug.

During merges, we free entries that we no longer need in the
destination index.  But those entries might have also been stored in
the dir_entry cache, and when a later call to add_to_index found them,
they would be used after being freed.

To prevent this, change dir_entry to store a copy of the name instead
of a pointer to a cache_entry.  This entails some refactoring of code
that expects the cache_entry.

the initial patch, but this version does not use any of Keith's code.

00b6c178c3 use strbuf_complete to conditionally append slash
When working with paths in strbufs, we frequently want to
ensure that a directory contains a trailing slash before
appending to it. We can shorten this code (and make the
intent more obvious) by calling strbuf_complete.

Most of these cases are trivially identical conversions, but
there are two things to note:

  - in a few cases we did not check that the strbuf is
    non-empty (which would lead to an out-of-bounds memory
    access). These were generally not triggerable in
    practice, either from earlier assertions, or typically
    because we would have just fed the strbuf to opendir(),
    which would choke on an empty path.

  - in a few cases we indexed the buffer with "original_len"
    or similar, rather than the current sb->len, and it is
    not immediately obvious from the diff that they are the
    same. In all of these cases, I manually verified that
    the strbuf does not change between the assignment and
    the strbuf_complete call.

This does not convert cases which look like:

  if (sb->len && !is_dir_sep(sb->buf[sb->len - 1]))
	  strbuf_addch(sb, '/');

as those are obviously semantically different. Some of these
cases arguably should be doing that, but that is out of
scope for this change, which aims purely for cleanup with no
behavior change (and at least it will make such sites easier
to find and examine in the future, as we can grep for
strbuf_complete).

system that is case-insensitive: core.ignoreCase. But the
`dir_inside_of()` function did not respect that. As a result, if Git's

with the `GIT_WORK_TREE` variable (e.g. `C:\test` vs `c:\test`) the
user would be greeted by the error message

	fatal: git-am cannot be used without a working tree.

57534ee77d dir.c: don't exclude whole dir prematurely if neg pattern may match
If there is a pattern "!foo/bar", this patch makes it not exclude "foo"
right away. This gives us a chance to examine "foo" and re-include
"foo/bar".

In order for it to detect that the directory under examination should
not be excluded right away, in other words it is a parent directory of a
negative pattern, the "directory path" of the negative pattern must be
literal. Patterns like "!f?o/bar" can't stop "foo" from being excluded.

Basename matching (i.e. "no slashes in the pattern") or must-be-dir
matching (i.e. "trailing slash in the pattern") does not work well with
this. For example, if we descend in "foo" and are examining "foo/abc",
current code for "foo/" pattern will check if path "foo/abc", not "foo",
is a directory. The same problem with basename matching. These may need
big code reorg to make it work.

73f9145fbf untracked cache: fix entry invalidation
First, the current code in untracked_cache_invalidate_path() is wrong
because it can only handle paths "a" or "a/b", not "a/b/c" because
lookup_untracked() only looks for entries directly under the given
directory. In the last case, it will look for the entry "b/c" in
directory "a" instead. This means if you delete or add an entry in a
subdirectory, untracked cache may become out of date because it does not
invalidate properly. This is noticed by David Turner.

The second problem is about invalidation inside a fully untracked/excluded
directory. In this case we may have to invalidate back to root. See the
comment block for detail.

2e5910f276 untracked-cache: fix subdirectory handling
Previously, some calls lookup_untracked would pass a full path.  But
lookup_untracked assumes that the portion of the path up to and
including to the untracked_cache_dir has been removed.  So
lookup_untracked would be looking in the untracked_cache for 'foo' for
'foo/bar' (instead of just looking for 'bar').  This would cause
untracked cache corruption.

Instead, treat_directory learns to track the base length of the parent
directory, so that only the last path component is passed to
lookup_untracked.

f932729cc7 memoize common git-path "constant" files
One of the most common uses of git_path() is to pass a
constant, like git_path("MERGE_MSG"). This has two
drawbacks:

  1. The return value is a static buffer, and the lifetime
     is dependent on other calls to git_path, etc.

  2. There's no compile-time checking of the pathname. This
     is OK for a one-off (after all, we have to spell it
     correctly at least once), but many of these constant
     strings appear throughout the code.

This patch introduces a series of functions to "memoize"
these strings, which are essentially globals for the
lifetime of the program. We compute the value once, take
ownership of the buffer, and return the cached value for
subsequent calls.  cache.h provides a helper macro for
defining these functions as one-liners, and defines a few
common ones for global use.

Using a macro is a little bit gross, but it does nicely
document the purpose of the functions. If we need to touch
them all later (e.g., because we learned how to change the
git_dir variable at runtime, and need to invalidate all of
the stored values), it will be much easier to have the
complete list.

Note that the shared-global functions have separate, manual
declarations. We could do something clever with the macros
(e.g., expand it to a declaration in some places, and a
declaration _and_ a definition in path.c). But there aren't
that many, and it's probably better to stay away from
too-magical macros.

Likewise, if we abandon the C preprocessor in favor of
generating these with a script, we could get much fancier.
E.g., normalizing "FOO/BAR-BAZ" into "git_path_foo_bar_baz".
But the small amount of saved typing is probably not worth
the resulting confusion to readers who want to grep for the
function's definition.

7687252f3f untracked-cache: support sparse checkout
Remove a check that would disable the untracked cache for sparse
checkouts.  Add tests that ensure that the untracked cache works with
sparse checkouts -- specifically considering the case that a file
foo/bar is checked out, but foo/.gitignore is not.

100e433741 untracked: fix detection of uname(2) failure
According to POSIX specification uname(2) must return -1 on failure
and a non-negative value on success.  Although many implementations
do return 0 on success it is valid to return any positive value for
success.  In particular, Solaris returns 1.
