Subject: [PATCH 0/3] commit-graph: fix corruption during generation v2 upgrade
Date: Tue, 12 Jul 2022 19:10:18 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1657667404.git.me@ttaylorr.com> (raw)
This brief series resolves a bug where a commit-graph would become
corrupt when upgrading from generation number v1 to v2, as originally
reported in [1].
Some speculation occurred as to what might be causing that bug in the
thread beginning at [1], until the problem was explained in more detail
by Will Chandler in [2].
The crux of the issue, as is described in [2] and [3], is that the
commit_graph_data slab is reused for read and write operations involving
the commit-graph, leading to situations where data computed in
preparation of a write is clobbered by a read of existing data.
The first patch demonstrates the issue, and the second patch prepares to
fix it by introducing a helper function. The crux of the issue is
described and fixed in the third patch.
