I'm trying to compile Git v2.13.1 to release for Cygwin, but it appears
a010391 ("sha1dc: update from upstream", 2017-05-20) is breaking a very
significant number of test cases in both 32-bit and 64-bit Cygwin
builds.

The first failure is t0000.46 "validate object ID of a known tree"; output with
-x and -v is below, although it's not very interesting:

    expecting success:
	    test "$tree" = 7bb943559a305bdd6bdee2cef6e5df2413c3d30a

    ++ test ceb282701536fe61bea01075664405caa7d6343f = 7bb943559a305bdd6bdee2cef6e5df2413c3d30a
    + test_eval_ret_=1
    + want_trace
    + test t = t
    + test t = t
    + set +x

    #               test "$tree" = 7bb943559a305bdd6bdee2cef6e5df2413c3d30a
    #

I have no idea where to even begin debugging this, but I'm happy to take
pointers / try things out on my box.

Cheers,

Adam

That looks scary, can you please comment out this:

    #define SHA1DC_ALLOW_UNALIGNED_ACCESS

In sha1dc/sha1.c and see if that helps, alternatively comment out the
ifdefs guarded by "#ifdef _MSC_VER" calls in sha1dc/sha1.c

The functional differences between 2.13.0 and 2.13.1 on that platform
should be none aside from possibly those changes, unless I've missed
something.

No, that doesn't fix it.

This can't possibly make a difference! ;-)

However, rebuilding with:

    $ make OPENSSL_SHA1=YesPlease >out2 2>&1

... make t0000-basic.sh pass just fine, so ...

commit 7e71542e8b ("sha1dc: avoid CPP macro collisions", 25-03-2017)
runs t0000-basic.sh just fine.

commit a0103914c2 ("sha1dc: update from upstream", 20-05-2017) fails
when running t0000-basic.sh.

I will look into this more tomorrow (it is late, I need sleep), unless
someone finds the solution overnight, of course.

Adam, you can build using the OPENSSL_SHA1 build variable for now
(if you want to release v2.13.1), or wait for another maint release
I suppose, ... I'll leave that to you! ;-)

ATB,
Ramsay Jones

That is merely a performance (and theoretical correctness) thing,
no?

If it does not hash correctly, the cause is more likely that the
endianness detection is going haywire.

    make CFLAGS="-DSHA1DC_FORCE_LITTLEENDIAN -g -O2 -Wall"

or something like that, perhaps?

Confirmed rebuilding with either of these suggested changes has t0000.46
still failing.

Confirmed rebuilding with this option has t0000 passing.  I can also get
the test to pass with Ramsay Jones' suggestion of using OpenSSL's SHA1.

Digging briefly into the endianness detection, it appears Cygwin has
both _LITTLE_ENDIAN and _BIG_ENDIAN defined.  Git's detection works by
assuming it's in a little endian environment and switching to big endian
if it detects any of the defines that indicate such, and a010391 adds
_BIG_ENDIAN to the set of defines that indicate big endianness.

The obvious quick fix would be one of the two below patches.  I'll also
take the discussion to the Cygwin mailing list in the hope that someone
can explain why Cygwin defines both _LITTLE_ENDIAN and _BIG_ENDIAN (and
indeed _PDP_ENDIAN).

Patch 1 (probably safer?):

I suspect that the upstream has already fixed this one to cope with
FreeBSD.  My preference is that we do another import on top of the
ab/sha1dc-maint topic, below the commit on ab/sha1dc that adds the
upstream as a submodule.

Apparently so!  a010391 brings Git up to the upstream's cc46554 ("Skip
temporary variable for SHA1DC_ALLOW_UNSIGNED_ACCESS", 2017-05-18); the
problem has been fixed in upstream's a24eef5 ("rewrote Endianness
selection", 2017-05-29).

In the interim, I'll use the CFLAGS route to try to get a v2.13.1 build
ready to release for Cygwin.

One could have configure ask some existing dependency that has already
determined the byte order.  For example:

# perl -e 'use Config; $o=$Config{byteorder}; print(($o=~/^1234/ ?
"little" : ($o=~/4321$/ ? "big" : "weird")), "\n");'
little

Good: less #ifdef soup; bad: not so great for cross-compiling.

(That's the integer byte order.  The floating-point byte order can be different;
hopefully git doesn't care.)

We use TravisCI for Linux, Mac, and (in a special way) Windows: 
https://travis-ci.org/git/git

Windows is not supported by TravisCI. We just use TravisCI to
trigger a build on MS Azure and read the results:
https://github.com/git/git/commit/029aeeed55f6bfe8014e8ffe5fc7a6f2e5b110fc

Maybe we could trigger a Cgywin build on your slaves in the same way?

This updates sha1dc fixing the issue on Cygwin introduced in 2.13.1,
and hopefully not regressing elsewhere. Liam, it would be much
appreciated if you could test this on SPARC.

As before the "sha1dc: update from upstream" patch is what should
fast-track to master/maint and be in 2.13.2, the other two are the
cooking submodule use, that's all unchanged aside from of course the
submodule pointing to the same upstream commit as the code import
itself does.

Junio: There's a whitespace change to sha1.h that am warns about, but
which it applies anyway that you didn't apply from my previous
patch. I think it probably makes sense to just take upstream's
whitespace shenanigans as-is instead of seeing that diff every time we
update. I guess we could also send them a pull request...

Update sha1dc from the latest version by the upstream
maintainer[1].

See commit a0103914c2 ("sha1dc: update from upstream", 2017-05-20) for
the latest update. That update was done sans some whitespace changes
by upstream, which is why the diff here isn't the same as the upstream
cc46554..e139984.

It also brings in a change[2] upstream made which should hopefully
address the breakage in 2.13.1 on Cygwin, see [3]. Cygwin defines both
_BIG_ENDIAN and _LITTLE_ENDIAN.

Adam Dinwoodie reports on the mailing list that that upstream commit
fixes the issue on Cygwin[4].

Message-ID: <20170606151231.25172-3-avarab@gmail.com>

```
Add an option to use the sha1collisiondetection library from the
submodule in sha1collisiondetection/ instead of in the copy in the
sha1dc/ directory.

This allows us to try out the submodule in sha1collisiondetection
without breaking the build for anyone who's not expecting them as we
work out any kinks.

From: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

If a user wants to experiment with the version of collision
detecting sha1 from the submodule, the user needed to not just
populate the submodule but also needed to turn the knob.

A Makefile trick is easy enough to do so, so let's do this.  When
somebody with a copy of the submodule populated wants not to use it,
that can be done by overriding it in config.mak or from the command
line.

I would suggest the pull request.

Also as to not make the mistake from before that I jump on the
submodule bandwagon here:
Patch 1 ought to go in its on series/patch, so with that out the way
we have more time to consider the pros and cons of the rest of
the series?

Other projects using submodules sometimes have
a .gitattributes entry to have .gitmodules not exported
via git-archive. Do we want a similar thing?

Speaking of attributes, I wonder if we want to specify
the .gitmodules file to be text with unixy file endings:
Having an entry
    .gitattributes eol=crlf
to simulate a Windows environment doesn't harm
submodule operation, which is good. I'll check if we
have a test for that.

Looking at this again it's not a bug, just upstream choosing to indent
a comment with spaces, not a bug.

So it makes sense to just apply as-is so we don't have that diff with
them / different sha1s on the files etc.

Yes it makes perfect sense to just take the 1st patch here and make
the submodule changes cook. This is just how I submitted it the last
time and Junio took the 1st patch into a maint topic, so I figured I'd
send it like this again.

Agreed. Maybe we'd also want this patch:

Subject: sha1dc: ignore indent-with-non-tab whitespace violations

The upstream sha1dc code indents some lines with spaces.
While this doesn't match Git's coding guidelines, it's better
to leave this imported code untouched than to try to make it
match our style. However, we can use .gitattributes to tell
"diff --check" and "git am" not to bother us about it.

Right now we end up with an empty directory due to the issue you noted
in https://public-inbox.org/git/CAGZ79kZC98CxA69QjmX2s_SU6z1CSgKgwZeqvwiMRAQc6+S3xg@mail.gmail.com/

It's probably best to have the .gitmodules file as some hint that
something should be there. We also ship the other .git* files.

I have no idea what that would do or why we'd have it, but I'm going
to understand this as you looking into it :)

Ok, but then let's talk about the other .git* files, would we want to
distribute these via tarballs? (I guess it is a minor thing if at all and
nobody downloading a git tarball would be surprised by these metadata
files or annoyed by them, so all is good?)

I looked briefly into it and it seems to be no problem just as config files
on Windows are no problem. I just spoke up too quickly.

Tested and confirmed this works for SPARC with no build flags.

Sorry for the delay, I was away last week.

Thanks,

I tried setting up a Cygwin Git build on AppVeyor a little while ago,
but the problem I found is that Cygwin builds are slow, particularly if
you want to also run the test suite.  I do the builds for the Cygwin
distribution on my normal PC (so reasonably powerful but definitely not
devoted to the purpose), and doing the build and running the default
tests takes in the region of 8 hours for the 64-bit build and 12 hours
for the 32-bit build.

At the moment, I'm trying to set up automated regular builds on my PC
using BuildBot.  I think that, short of someone donating some fairly
significant resources for Cygwin builds, that's going to be the closest
I'll be able to find for spotting problems early.  It's a project in my
currently limited spare time, though, and not something I've done
before, so it's taking a little while to get going.

Wow. 8 hours. I take it that you are bitten by the same issue as Git for
Windows, where Git's test suite uses Unix shell scripting rather heavily,
and Unix shell simply requiring tons of expensive emulation to run
decently on Windows.

How automated is your process? (Including, most importantly, updating
the Cygwin build setup...)

I ask because I could possibly set up something using the existing
infrastructure for Git for Windows' testing, as long as

1) everything is scripted, and

2) you do not need interactive access to any box (I mainly use Docker
   containers to run the builds)

If you are interested, feel free to ping me via private mail.

Ciao,
Johannes
