[PATCH] pkt-line: Fix sparse errors and warnings

From: Ramsay Jones <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:56:14 

Sparse issues the following error and warnings:

    pkt-line.c:209:51: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
    sideband.c:41:52: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
    daemon.c:615:39: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
    remote-curl.c:220:75: error: incompatible types for operation (>)
    remote-curl.c:220:75:    left side has type char *
    remote-curl.c:220:75:    right side has type int
    remote-curl.c:291:53: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
    remote-curl.c:408:43: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
    remote-curl.c:562:47: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer

All of these complaints "blame" to commit 17243606 ("pkt-line: share
buffer/descriptor reading implementation", 20-02-2013).

In order to suppress the warnings, we simply replace the integer
constant 0 with NULL.

In order to suppress the error message, we simply remove the "> 0" from
the while loop controlling expression.

Hi Jeff,

When you next re-roll your 'jk/pkt-line-cleanup' patches, could you
please squash this (or something like it) into commit 17243606
("pkt-line: share buffer/descriptor reading implementation", 20-02-2013).

Please check the resolution of the sparse error, remote-curl.c:220, since
I didn't think too deeply about it, making some assumptions ... ;-)

Note: the commit message mentions an strbuf_get_line() function, but
that is supposed to be packet_get_line(), right?

In addition, that commit adds the following code as part of function
get_packet_data():

+       /* Read up to "size" bytes from our source, whatever it is. */
+       if (src_buf && *src_buf) {
+               ret = size < *src_size ? size : *src_size;
+               memcpy(dst, *src_buf, ret);
+               *src_buf += size;
............................^^^^^
+               *src_size -= size;
+       } else {
+

This could lead to the source buffer pointer being incremented past the
"one past the end" of the buffer; ie to undefined behaviour. That use
of 'size', along with the one on the following line, should be 'ret' no?

ATB,
Ramsay Jones

All of these complaints "blame" to commit 17243606 ("pkt-line: share
buffer/descriptor reading implementation", 20-02-2013).

In order to suppress the warnings, we simply replace the integer
constant 0 with NULL.
Thanks for catching. This was just a think-o on my part; we want to pass
(NULL, 0) as the (buf, len) pair, but of course we are passing pointers
to them, so it is actually (NULL, NULL). And yes, I made sure the
function correctly handles both a NULL pointer-to-buf and a NULL
pointer-to-pointer-to-buf (and we do not even care about the
pointer-to-len unless the buf pointer is valid).

So no bug, but definitely a reasonable cleanup.

Oddly, you seemed to miss the one in connect.c (which my sparse does
detect).

In order to suppress the error message, we simply remove the "> 0" from
the while loop controlling expression.
Yeah, that is the right thing to do. The code that's there isn't wrong,
but I agree that checking "ptr != NULL" (i.e., just "ptr") is much more
sane than "ptr > 0" (and is just a leftover that I missed during
refactoring the patch).

When you next re-roll your 'jk/pkt-line-cleanup' patches, could you
please squash this (or something like it) into commit 17243606
("pkt-line: share buffer/descriptor reading implementation", 20-02-2013).
I don't think we otherwise need a re-roll. Junio hasn't merged the
series to next yet, so I've included an updated patch 15 below with your
changes (your patch, the missing connect.c fix, the commit message fix,
and the size/ret thing below).

In addition, that commit adds the following code as part of function
get_packet_data():

+       /* Read up to "size" bytes from our source, whatever it is. */
+       if (src_buf && *src_buf) {
+               ret = size < *src_size ? size : *src_size;
+               memcpy(dst, *src_buf, ret);
+               *src_buf += size;
............................^^^^^
+               *src_size -= size;
+       } else {
+

This could lead to the source buffer pointer being incremented past the
"one past the end" of the buffer; ie to undefined behaviour. That use
of 'size', along with the one on the following line, should be 'ret' no?
Yeah, thanks for catching. We just die immediately afterwards anyway,
and sane systems do not care what kind of junk you put into a pointer
unless you dereference. But clearly it is supposed to be "ret".

Thanks for the report. Clearly I should start running "make sparse" more
often (the reason I don't is that it produces dozens of complaints about
constants in /usr/include/bits/xopen_lim.h, which I could obviously care
less about; I should look into suppressing that).

Updated patch 15/19 is below.

Subject: [PATCH] pkt-line: share buffer/descriptor reading implementation

The packet_read function reads from a descriptor. The
packet_get_line function is similar, but reads from an
in-memory buffer, and uses a completely separate
implementation. This patch teaches the generic packet_read
function to accept either source, and we can do away with
packet_get_line's implementation.

There are two other differences to account for between the
old and new functions. The first is that we used to read
into a strbuf, but now read into a fixed size buffer. The
only two callers are fine with that, and in fact it
simplifies their code, since they can use the same
static-buffer interface as the rest of the packet_read_line
callers (and we provide a similar convenience wrapper for
reading from a buffer rather than a descriptor).

This is technically an externally-visible behavior change in
that we used to accept arbitrary sized packets up to 65532
bytes, and now cap out at LARGE_PACKET_MAX, 65520. In
practice this doesn't matter, as we use it only for parsing
smart-http headers (of which there is exactly one defined,
and it is small and fixed-size). And any extension headers
would be breaking the protocol to go over LARGE_PACKET_MAX
anyway.

The other difference is that packet_get_line would return
on error rather than dying. However, both callers of
packet_get_line are actually improved by dying.

The first caller does its own error checking, but we can
drop that; as a result, we'll actually get more specific
reporting about protocol breakage when packet_read dies
internally. The only downside is that packet_read will not
print the smart-http URL that failed, but that's not a big
deal; anybody not debugging can already see the remote's URL
already, and anybody debugging would want to run with
GIT_CURL_VERBOSE anyway to see way more information.

The second caller, which is just trying to skip past any
extra smart-http headers (of which there are none defined,
but which we allow to keep room for future expansion), did
not error check at all. As a result, it would treat an error
just like a flush packet. The resulting mess would generally
cause an error later in get_remote_heads, but now we get
error reporting much closer to the source of the problem.

All of these complaints "blame" to commit 17243606 ("pkt-line: share
buffer/descriptor reading implementation", 20-02-2013).

In order to suppress the warnings, we simply replace the integer
constant 0 with NULL.

Oddly, you seemed to miss the one in connect.c (which my sparse does
detect).
Ah, I saw why as soon as I finished off the rebase: that (NULL, 0) goes
away in the very next patch, and you probably ran sparse just on the tip
of the topic (via pu). I still think it's worth fixing since we are
squashing anyway. Junio, it will give you a trivial conflict on patch
16, but you can just resolve in favor of what patch 16 does. If it's
easier, here's the revised patch 16:

Subject: [PATCH] teach get_remote_heads to read from a memory buffer

Now that we can read packet data from memory as easily as a
descriptor, get_remote_heads can take either one as a
source. This will allow further refactoring in remote-curl.

Yes, sorry I should have mentioned that! Ahem, *blush* [Having created and
tested the patch (including running "make test") on the tip of pu, I applied
the patch directly to commit 17243606 (using git-am). Since it applied
cleanly and git-show looked OK, I said to myself "yep, that's OK, send it" ;-) ]

Thanks for the report. Clearly I should start running "make sparse" more
often (the reason I don't is that it produces dozens of complaints about
constants in /usr/include/bits/xopen_lim.h, which I could obviously care
less about; I should look into suppressing that).
Hmm, I'm guessing you are on an 64bit system; if so, and you are running
the release version of sparse (v0.4.4 Nov 2011), I would clone the sparse
repo [1] and build from source. There have been many improvements to the
64bit support since the last release (I hear it was unusable). [Note: I
can't confirm that - I'm currently stuck on 32bits!]
