I sort-of bisected it, and it pointed to Peff's fix. Running 't0025 --stress' in the merge of 'sg/stress-test' and 'jk/add-ignore-errors-bit-assignment-fix' results in a failure within seconds or <20 repetitions. In the merge with 'jk/add-ignore-errors-bit-assignment-fix^' it runs successfully for thousands of repetitions. ``` ## Randall S. Becker, 2019-02-06 18:00 Subject: RE: t0025 flakey?

The NonStop port has traditionally had issues with t0025, which we tended to ignore because things did work. We wrote those off as bash issues in t0025 since they seemed to be corrected when we picked up a new bash version about a year ago. I will keep monitoring this, particularly when 2.21 comes out.

Well, now I know why my attempts to fix the test failed. It was not my new test that was failing at all, but rather the existing test. Which implies that I severely bungled the actual code change. Armed with that knowledge, it was pretty easy to find said bungling. The fix is below. Junio, this should go on top of jk/add-ignore-errors-bit-assignment-fix as soon as possible, as the regression is already in master. And I'll go find a brown paper bag. ;) -- >8 -- Subject: [PATCH] add_to_index(): convert forgotten HASH_RENORMALIZE check Commit 9e5da3d055 (add: use separate ADD_CACHE_RENORMALIZE flag, 2019-01-17) switched out using HASH_RENORMALIZE in our flags field for a new ADD_CACHE_RENORMALIZE flag. However, it forgot to convert one of the checks for HASH_RENORMALIZE into the new flag, which totally broke "git add --renormalize". To make matters even more confusing, the resulting code would racily pass the tests! The forgotten check was responsible for defeating the up-to-date check of the index entry. That meant that "git add --renormalize" would refuse to renormalize things that appeared stat-clean. But most of the time the test commands run fast enough that the file mtime is the same as the index mtime. And thus we err on the conservative side and re-hash the file, which is what "--renormalize" would have wanted. But if you're unlucky and cross that one-second boundary between writing the file and writing the index (which is more likely to happen on a slow or heavily-loaded system), then the file appears stat-clean. And "--renormalize" would effectively do nothing. The fix is straightforward: convert this check to use the right flag.

Yup, the preview has both the renormalize fix and another hotfix for it Peff made. Thanks all for quick fixes and confirmations. ``` ## Jeff King, 2019-02-07 21:00 Subject: Re: [PATCH] add_to_index(): convert forgotten HASH_RENORMALIZE check Message-ID: <20190207210009.GA30825@sigill.intra.peff.net> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20190207210009.GA30825%40sigill.intra.peff.net In-Reply-To: <20190207041802.ai25fc64sqfg2h66@tb-raspi4> ``` On Thu, Feb 07, 2019 at 04:18:02AM +0000, Torsten Bögershausen wrote: > And trying to answer an older question: > > >>>The reason appears to be wrong bit mask usage > >>>#define ADD_CACHE_IGNORE_ERRORS 4 > >>>and > >>>#define HASH_RENORMALIZE 4 > > What if we had renamed "flags" like this ? > [...] > -int add_to_index(struct index_state *istate, const char *path, struct stat *st, int flags) > +int add_to_index(struct index_state *istate, const char *path, struct stat *st, int add_cache_flags) Yes, changing the name of the variable in the original patch would have caught this case. I don't know if it is worth doing now or not (the code as it is now seems pretty clear to me, but of course I've looked at it a lot lately). -Peff ``` ## SZEDER Gábor, 2019-02-07 23:57 Subject: Re: t0025 flakey?
