* cache: close race window when unlocking slotsJohn Keeping2018-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We use POSIX advisory record locks to control access to cache slots, but these have an unhelpful behaviour in that they are released when any file descriptor referencing the file is closed by this process. Mostly this is okay, since we know we won't be opening the lock file anywhere else, but there is one place that it does matter: when we restore stdout we dup2() over a file descriptor referring to the file, thus closing that descriptor. Since we restore stdout before unlocking the slot, this creates a window during which the slot content can be overwritten. The fix is reasonably straightforward: simply restore stdout after unlocking the slot, but the diff is a bit bigger because this requires us to move the temporary stdout FD into struct cache_slot.

* cache: flush stdio before restoring FDsJohn Keeping2017-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | As described in commit 2efb59e (ui-patch: Flush stdout after outputting data, 2014-06-11), we need to ensure that stdout is flushed before restoring the file descriptor when writing to the cache. It turns out that it's not just ui-patch that is affected by this but also raw diff which writes to stdout internally. Let's avoid risking more places doing this by ensuring that stdout is flushed after writing in fill_slot(). Signed-off-by: John Keeping <john@keeping.me.uk>
* cache: don't check for match with no keyJohn Keeping2016-01-17
| | | | | | | | | | | We call open_slot() from cache_ls() without a key since we simply want to read the path out of the header. Should the file happen to contain an empty key then we end up calling memcmp() with NULL and a non-zero length. Fix this by assigning slot->match only if a key is set, which is always will be in the code paths where we use slot->match. Coverity-id: 13807 Signed-off-by: John Keeping <john@keeping.me.uk>

* cache: use F_SETLK to avoid stale lock filesJohn Keeping2015-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If CGit is killed while it holds a lock on a cache slot (for example because it is taking too long to generate a page), the lock file will be left in place. This prevents any future attempt to use the same slot since it will fail to exclusively create the lock file. Since CGit is the only program that should be manipulating lock files, we can use advisory locking to detect whether another process is actually using the lock file or if it is now stale. I have confirmed that this works on Linux by setting a short TTL in a custom cgitrc and running the following with CGit patched to print a message to stderr if the fcntl(2) fails: $ export CGIT_CONFIG=$PWD/cgitrc $ export QUERY_STRING=url=cgit/tree/ui-shared.c $ ./cgit | grep -v -e '^<div class=.footer.>' \ -e '^Last-Modified: ' \ -e ^'Expires: ' >expect $ seq 50000 | dd bs=8192 | parallel -j200 "diff -u expect <(./cgit | grep -v -e '^<div class=.footer.>' \ -e '^Last-Modified: ' \ -e ^'Expires: ') || echo BAD" This printed the fail message several times without ever printing "BAD".

* Skip cache slot when time-to-live is zeroLukas Fleischer2014-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | If time-to-live is set to zero, we don't need to regenerate the cache slots on every request. Instead, just skip the caching process and immediately provide the dynamically generated version of the page. Setting time-to-live to zero is useful when you want to disable caching for certain pages. Signed-off-by: Lukas Fleischer <cgit@cryptocrack.de>
* cache: use sendfile() instead of a pair of read() + write()Sebastian Andrzej Siewior2014-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | sendfile() does the same job and avoids to copy the content into userland and back. One has to define NO_SENDFILE in case the OS (kernel / libc) does not supported. It is disabled by default on non-linux environemnts. According to the glibc, sendfile64() was added in Linux 2.4 (so it has been there for a while) but after browsing over the mapage of FreeBSD's I noticed that the prototype is little different.

* cache: don't leave cache_slot fields uninitializedJohn Keeping2014-01-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Valgrind says: ==18344== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s) ==18344== at 0x406C83: open_slot (cache.c:63) ==18344== by 0x407478: cache_ls (cache.c:403) ==18344== by 0x404C9A: process_request (cgit.c:639) ==18344== by 0x406BD2: fill_slot (cache.c:190) ==18344== by 0x4071A0: cache_process (cache.c:284) ==18344== by 0x404461: main (cgit.c:952) ==18344== Uninitialised value was created by a stack allocation ==18344== at 0x40738B: cache_ls (cache.c:375) This is caused by the keylen field being used to calculate whether or not a slot is matched. We never then check the value of this and the length of data read depends on the key length read from the file so this isn't dangerous, but it's nice to avoid branching based on uninitialized data.

* use struct strbuf instead of static buffersJohn Keeping2013-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use "struct strbuf" from Git to remove the limit on file path length. Notes on scan-tree: This is slightly involved since I decided to pass the strbuf into add_repo() and modify if whenever a new file name is required, which should avoid any extra allocations within that function. The pattern there is to append the filename, use it and then reset the buffer to its original length (retaining a trailing '/'). Notes on ui-snapshot: Since write_archive modifies the argv array passed to it we copy the argv_array values into a new array of char* and then free the original argv_array structure and the new array without worrying about what the values now look like.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The type used to declare the st_size field of a 'struct stat' can be a 32- or 64-bit sized type, which can vary from one platform to another, or even from one compilation to another. In particular, on linux, if you include the following define: #define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64 prior to including certain system header files, then the type used for the st_size field will be __off64_t, otherwise it will be an __off_t. Note that the above define is included at the top of git-compat-util.h. In cache.c, the "%zd" format specifier expects a "signed size_t", another type which can vary, when an __off64_t or a __off_t is provided. To supress the warning, use the PRIuMAX format specifier and cast the st_size field to uintmax_t. This should work an any platform for which git currently compiles. In ui-plain.c, the size parameter of sha1_object_info() and read_sha1_file() is defined to be "unsigned long *" not "size_t *". So, to supress the warning, simply declare size with the correct type.

* Redesign the caching layerLars Hjemli2008-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original caching layer in cgit has no upper bound on the number of concurrent cache entries, so when cgit is traversed by a spider (like the googlebot), the cache might end up filling your disk. Also, if any error occurs in the cache layer, no content is returned to the client. This patch redesigns the caching layer to avoid these flaws by * giving the cache a bound number of slots * disabling the cache for the current request when errors occur The cache size limit is implemented by hashing the querystring (the cache lookup key) and generating a cache filename based on this hash modulo the cache size. In order to detect hash collisions, the full lookup key (i.e. the querystring) is stored in the cache file (separated from its associated content by ascii 0). The cache filename is the reversed 8-digit hexadecimal representation of hash(key) % cache_size which should make the filesystem lookup pretty fast (if directory content is indexed/sorted); reversing the representation avoids the problem where all keys have equal prefix. There is a new config option, cache-size, which sets the upper bound for the cache. Default value for this option is 0, which has the same effect as setting nocache=1 (hence nocache is now deprecated). Included in this patch is also a new testfile which verifies that the new option works as intended. Signed-off-by: Lars Hjemli <hjemli@gmail.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since fmt() uses 8 alternating static buffers, and cache_lock might call cache_create_dirs() multiple times, which in turn might call fmt() twice, after four iterations lockfile would be overwritten by a cachedirectory path.

* Add caching infrastructureLars Hjemli2006-12-10
This enables internal caching of page output. Page requests are split into four groups: 1) repo listing (front page) 2) repo summary 3) repo pages w/symbolic references in query string 4) repo pages w/constant sha1's in query string Each group has a TTL specified in minutes. When a page is requested, a cached filename is stat(2)'ed and st_mtime is compared to time(2). If TTL has expired (or the file didn't exist), the cached file is regenerated. When generating a cached file, locking is used to avoid parallell processing of the request. If multiple processes tries to aquire the same lock, the ones who fail to get the lock serves the (expired) cached file. If the cached file don't exist, the process instead calls sched_yield(2) before restarting the request processing. Signed-off-by: Lars Hjemli <hjemli@gmail.com>
