[PATCH tabled 1/2] server/config.c: don't dereference NULL on OOM

[PATCH tabled 1/2] server/config.c: don't dereference NULL on OOM

[Jim Meyering]

Looking at tabled's code, I see a few places where unchecked strdup
can lead to NULL deref, whereas the majority are checked carefully.
Patches for the first two I found are below -- haven't completed the job.

In most cases, I see that care is taken to detect failure and propagate
that to higher levels.  In others, due to the use of glib functions,
OOM leads to immediate (and possibly-unclean?) exit, because glib simply
calls exit on OOM.  Or perhaps tabled tells glib not to handle OOM that
way -- assuming that's possible.

This is server-style (and some of it library-grade) code, so I'm surprised
to see it relying on glib, which due to its handling of OOM errors
is often deemed unsuitable for applications that need to die
gracefully.

I'm not 100% sure that each of these strdup
failures will lead inevitably to a NULL deref, but a quick
manual trace suggested it's possible, so...

It's a holdover from kernel coding that I (and Pete?) obsessively check 
return values, even from memory allocation functions.  Occasionally I 
wonder if I'll ever receive an email, from an odd duck somewhere, 
thanking me for writing a server that works even VM overcommit support 
disabled.

On GLib:  it was just so darned convenient, and portable too.  It gave 
quick access to non-Linux OS's, and a bunch of convenience functions.

GLib's OOM death behavior itself is configurable via g_log*fatal*, but 
you're absolutely right that the code itself makes a standard assumption 
that memory allocation functions always succeed.

I wouldn't complain if the GLib dependency went away, but that's quite a 
project for someone...

(now, on to sending a separate email regarding the specific changes 
you've submitted here...)

(see other email for general response to these changes, comments on 
GLib, OOM, etc.)

First off, I ACK (accept) all these changes.  Technically they appear 
correct, and I am interested in merging them.

But I request a few minor style and workflow adjustments, and a 
resubmission. Specific comments:

[style]

1) the functional style of sizeof keyword, with parens, is preferred:

-			snprintf(s, 64, "get user '%s'", user);
+			snprintf(s, sizeof s, "get user '%s'", user);


2) it is preferred to omit optional braces for singleton test+stmt style 
statements:

+	if (!pass) {
+		goto err_cmp;
+	}


[patch submission administrivia]

3) I process patches similar to how Linus and others in the kernel do 
it: "git am /path/to/mbox_of_patches"  That tends to impose some 
restrictions on the contents of each email.

In your case, while the patch descriptions and diffs themselves are 
correct, you seem to be sending one-mbox-per-email, while I'm expecting 
one-patch-per-email.  If you could tweak your process to make that 
change, that would reduce the manual labor on my part.


4) While total number of patches is not really a problem, I would 
request sweeping most of the one-and-two-liners in this series into a 
single patch, leaving perhaps only the bucket.c and status.c changes as 
standalone patches.

It's more an art and style preferences, than science, when deciding how 
to separate out changes into patches. Trying to take my cues from the 
kernel, it is preferred, for example, that bug fixes be separate from 
new features, or whitespace and cosmetic changes separate from 
functional changes.  But it is also encouraged to group similar changes 
together, if, for example, you're making a similar change across a large 
number of files.

Mailing list review-ability, useful 'git bisect' boundaries, and a 
coherent 'git shortlog' summary tend to be my guides when deciding patch 
boundaries.

Thanks!

	Jeff

FWIW, 'git pull' submissions are welcome.  Standard kernel-style pull 
submission style applies[1].

[1] public git pull URL including branch name, diffstat, shortlog or 
full log of changeset summaries, and finally, the combined diff of all 
changes.

Sure.  Adjusted.

Gladly.  That's what I would have done in code I own, but there is a
braced single-line "else" block just above, so I presumed that the
style was "always use braces".  (I think we have the same preferences,
since I too would use braces around the single-line "else" in that case,
though not if the "then" block had also been a one-liner.

No problem.

Will do.
You can tell that I'm too accustomed to posting FYI-patches
that I will shortly push -- or that I'll push upon review.

Preaching to the choir ;-)

Thanks for spelling out your guidelines.

Here you go.
You can pull from the "oom" branch here:
  git://git.infradead.org/users/meyering/tabled.git

I think I've addressed all of your preferences, merging
most OOM fixes into one commit, but not the two you mentioned
that should stay separate.  I also left the sizeof(s) one separate.

However, I did leave the copyright year updates in.
If they're a problem, let me know and I'll do another round.
Otherwise, I can send a patch to update all of the
remaining ones to include 2010 so this won't be an
issue for 3 more months.

Got nearly everything perfect.  Need one more minor yet important 
change.  As described in doc/contributions.txt, every changeset MUST 
have a Signed-off-by line at the end of a changeset's description.

I was able to pull and build just fine, so your git repo setup and push 
appears correct.

Also, in your pull request, please put the branch immediately following 
the repo URL on the same line, for easier cut-n-paste.  Here's how Linus

Ok.  I've added those pesky S.O.B lines with this:

  git filter-branch --msg-filter \
    'cat && printf "\nSigned-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>\n"' \
    HEAD~4..HEAD

and pushed the result.

Please pull from the 'oom' branch of
git://git.infradead.org/users/meyering/tabled.git

I presume there's no need to re-post the diffstat or diffs.
