notes-merge: drop dead zero-write code

We call write_in_full() with a size that we know is greater
than zero. The return value can never be zero, then, since
write_in_full() converts such a failed write() into ENOSPC
and returns -1.  We can just drop this branch of the error
handling entirely.

files-backend: prefer "0" for write_in_full() error check

Commit 06f46f237a (avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) !=
len" pattern, 2017-09-13) converted this callsite from:

  write_in_full(...) != 1

to

  write_in_full(...) < 0

But during the conflict resolution in c50424a6f0 (Merge
branch 'jk/write-in-full-fix', 2017-09-25), this morphed
into

  write_in_full(...) < 1

This behaves as we want, but we prefer to avoid modeling the
"less than length" error-check which can be subtly buggy, as
shown in efacf609c8 (config: avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf,

read_pack_header: handle signed/unsigned comparison in read result

The result of read_in_full() may be -1 if we saw an error.
But in comparing it to a sizeof() result, that "-1" will be
promoted to size_t. In fact, the largest possible size_t
which is much bigger than our struct size. This means that
our "< sizeof(header)" error check won't trigger.

In practice, we'd go on to read uninitialized memory and
compare it to the PACK signature, which is likely to fail.
But we shouldn't get there.

We can fix this by making a direct "!=" comparison to the
requested size, rather than "<". This means that errors get
lumped in with short reads, but that's sufficient for our
purposes here. There's no PH_ERROR tp represent our case.
And anyway, this function reads from pipes and network
sockets. A network error may racily appear as EOF to us
anyway if there's data left in the socket buffers.

"1" for success and "0" for failure.

Let's flip them to follow the usual write() conventions and

7 years agoavoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) != len" pattern
Jeff King [Wed, 13 Sep 2017 17:16:03 +0000 (13:16 -0400)] 
avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) != len" pattern

The return value of write_in_full() is either "-1", or the
requested number of bytes[1]. If we make a partial write
before seeing an error, we still return -1, not a partial
value. This goes back to f6aa66cb95 (write_in_full: really
write in full or return error on disk full., 2007-01-11).

So checking anything except "was the return value negative"
is pointless. And there are a couple of reasons not to do
so:

  1. It can do a funny signed/unsigned comparison. If your
     "len" is signed (e.g., a size_t) then the compiler will
     promote the "-1" to its unsigned variant.

     This works out for "!= len" (unless you really were
     trying to write the maximum size_t bytes), but is a
     bug if you check "< len" (an example of which was fixed
     recently in config.c).

     We should avoid promoting the mental model that you
     need to check the length at all, so that new sites are
     not tempted to copy us.

  2. Checking for a negative value is shorter to type,
     especially when the length is an expression.

  3. Linus says so. In d34cf19b89 (Clean up write_in_full()
     users, 2007-01-11), right after the write_in_full()
     semantics were changed, he wrote:

       I really wish every "write_in_full()" user would just
       check against "<0" now, but this fixes the nasty and
       stupid ones.

     Appeals to authority aside, this makes it clear that
     writing it this way does not have an intentional
     benefit. It's a historical curiosity that we never
     bothered to clean up (and which was undoubtedly
     cargo-culted into new sites).

So let's convert these obviously-correct cases (this
includes write_str_in_full(), which is just a wrapper for
write_in_full()).

[1] A careful reader may notice there is one way that
    write_in_full() can return a different value. If we ask
    write() to write N bytes and get a return value that is
    _larger_ than N, we could return a larger total. But
    besides the fact that this would imply a totally broken
    version of write(), it would already invoke undefined
    behavior. Our internal remaining counter is an unsigned
    size_t, which means that subtracting too many byte will
    wrap it around to a very large number. So we'll instantly
    begin reading off the end of the buffer, trying to write
    gigabytes (or petabytes) of data.

config: avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) < len" pattern

The return type of write_in_full() is a signed ssize_t,
because we may return "-1" on failure (even if we succeeded
in writing some bytes). But "len" itself is may be an
unsigned type (the function takes a size_t, but of course we
may have something else in the calling function). So while
it seems like:

  if (write_in_full(fd, buf, len) < len)
die_errno("write error");

would trigger on error, it won't if "len" is unsigned.  The
compiler sees a signed/unsigned comparison and promotes the
signed value, resulting in (size_t)-1, the highest possible
size_t (or again, whatever type the caller has). This cannot
possibly be smaller than "len", and so the conditional can
never trigger.

I scoured the code base for cases of this, but it turns out
that these two in git_config_set_multivar_in_file_gently()
are the only ones. Here our "len" is the difference between
two size_t variables, making the result an unsigned size_t.
We can fix this by just checking for a negative return value
directly, as write_in_full() will never return any value
except -1 or the full count.

There's no addition to the test suite here, since you need
to convince write() to fail in order to see the problem. The
simplest reproduction recipe I came up with is to trigger
ENOSPC:

  # make a limited-size filesystem
  dd if=/dev/zero of=small.disk bs=1M count=1
  mke2fs small.disk
  mkdir mnt
  sudo mount -o loop small.disk mnt
  cd mnt
  sudo chown $USER:$USER .

  # make a config file with some content
  git config --file=config one.key value
  git config --file=config two.key value

  # now fill up the disk
  dd if=/dev/zero of=fill

  # and try to delete a key, which requires copying the rest
  # of the file to config.lock, and will fail on write()
  git config --file=config --unset two.key

That final command should (and does after this patch)
produce an error message due to the failed write, and leave
the file intact. Instead, it silently ignores the failure
and renames config.lock into place, leaving you with a
totally empty config file!

string to a string list instead of adding the original string. That was
so that the original string could be freed in a later patch, but it is
also conceptually cleaner, since now all calls to `string_list_insert()`

"HEAD" is added in `split_head_update()`.

Restructure `split_head_update()` in the same way as the earlier patch
did for `split_symref_update()`. This does not correct any practical
problem, but makes things conceptually cleaner. The downside is a call
