Subject: [PATCH 5/7] init: remove git_init_db_config() while fixing leaks
Date: Mon, 08 Mar 2021 18:36:18 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <d30365d967651c6090635ec564d2ed2d051e8aec.1615228580.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.899.git.1615228580.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Andrzej Hunt <ajrhunt@google.com>
The primary goal of this change is to stop leaking init_db_template_dir.
This leak can happen because:
1. git_init_db_config() allocates new memory into init_db_template_dir
without first freeing the existing value.
2. init_db_template_dir might already contain data, either because:
2.1 git_config() can be invoked twice with this callback in a single
process - at least 2 allocations are likely.
2.2 A single git_config() allocation can invoke the callback multiple
times for a given key (see further explanation in the function
docs) - each of those calls will trigger another leak.
The simplest fix for the leak would be to free(init_db_template_dir)
before overwriting it. Instead we choose to convert to fetching
init.templatedir via git_config_get_value() as that is more explicit,
more efficient, and avoids allocations (the returned result is owned by
the config cache, so we aren't responsible for freeing it).
If we remove init_db_template_dir, git_init_db_config() ends up being
responsible only for forwarding core.* config values to
platform_core_config(). However platform_core_config() already ignores
non-core.* config values, so we can safely remove git_init_db_config()
and invoke git_config() directly with platform_core_config() as the
callback.
The platform_core_config forwarding was originally added in:
287853392a (mingw: respect core.hidedotfiles = false in git-init again, 2019-03-11
And I suspect the potential for a leak existed since the original
implementation of git_init_db_config in:
90b45187ba (Add `init.templatedir` configuration variable., 2010-02-17)
LSAN output from t0001:
Direct leak of 73 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
