run-command: optionally kill children on exit
When we spawn a helper process, it should generally be done
and finish_command called before we exit. However, if we
exit abnormally due to an early return or a signal, the
helper may continue to run in our absence.
In the best case, this may simply be wasted CPU cycles or a
few stray messages on a terminal. But it could also mean a
process that the user thought was aborted continues to run
to completion (e.g., a push's pack-objects helper will
complete the push, even though you killed the push process).
This patch provides infrastructure for run-command to keep
track of PIDs to be killed, and clean them on signal
reception or input, just as we do with tempfiles. PIDs can
be added in two ways:
1. If NO_PTHREADS is defined, async helper processes are
automatically marked. By definition this code must be
ready to die when the parent dies, since it may be
implemented as a thread of the parent process.
2. If the run-command caller specifies the "clean_on_exit"
option. This is not the default, as there are cases
where it is OK for the child to outlive us (e.g., when
spawning a pager).
PIDs are cleared from the kill-list automatically during
wait_or_whine, which is called from finish_command and
finish_async.

execv_dashed_external: wait for child on signal death
When you hit ^C to interrupt a git command going to a pager,
this usually leaves the pager running. But when a dashed
external is in use, the pager ends up in a funny state and
quits (but only after eating one more character from the
terminal!). This fixes it.
Explaining the reason will require a little background.
When git runs a pager, it's important for the git process to
hang around and wait for the pager to finish, even though it
has no more data to feed it. This is because git spawns the
pager as a child, and thus the git process is the session
leader on the terminal. After it dies, the pager will finish
its current read from the terminal (eating the one
character), and then get EIO trying to read again.
When you hit ^C, that sends SIGINT to git and to the pager,
and it's a similar situation. The pager ignores it, but the
git process needs to hang around until the pager is done. We
addressed that long ago in a3da882120 (pager: do
wait_for_pager on signal death, 2009-01-22).
But when you have a dashed external (or an alias pointing to
a builtin, which will re-exec git for the builtin), there's
an extra process in the mix. For instance, running:
$ git -c alias.l=log l
will end up with a process tree like:
git (parent)
\
git-log (child)
\
less (pager)
If you hit ^C, SIGINT goes to all of them. The pager ignores
it, and the child git process will end up in wait_for_pager().
But the parent git process will die, and the usual EIO
trouble happens.
So we really want the parent git process to wait_for_pager(),
but of course it doesn't know anything about the pager at
all, since it was started by the child. However, we can
have it wait on the git-log child, which in turn is waiting
on the pager. And that's what this patch does.
There are a few design decisions here worth explaining:
1. The new feature is attached to run-command's
clean_on_exit feature. Partly this is convenience,
since that feature already has a signal handler that
deals with child cleanup.
But it's also a meaningful connection. The main reason
that dashed externals use clean_on_exit is to bind the
two processes together. If somebody kills the parent
with a signal, we propagate that to the child (in this
instance with SIGINT, we do propagate but it doesn't
matter because the original signal went to the whole
process group). Likewise, we do not want the parent
to go away until the child has done so.
In a traditional Unix world, we'd probably accomplish
this binding by just having the parent execve() the
child directly. But since that doesn't work on Windows,
everything goes through run_command's more spawn-like
interface.
2. We do _not_ automatically waitpid() on any
clean_on_exit children. For dashed externals this makes
sense; we know that the parent is doing nothing but
waiting for the child to exit anyway. But with other
children, it's possible that the child, after getting
the signal, could be waiting on the parent to do
something (like closing a descriptor). If we were to
wait on such a child, we'd end up in a deadlock. So
this errs on the side of caution, and lets callers
enable the feature explicitly.
3. When we send children the cleanup signal, we send all
the signals first, before waiting on any children. This
is to avoid the case where one child might be waiting
on another one to exit, causing a deadlock. We inform
all of them that it's time to die before reaping any.
In practice, there is only ever one dashed external run
from a given process, so this doesn't matter much now.
But it future-proofs us if other callers start using
the wait_after_clean mechanism.
There's no automated test here, because it would end up racy
and unportable. But it's easy to reproduce the situation by
running the log command given above and hitting ^C.

pager: don't use unsafe functions in signal handlers
Since the commit a3da8821208d (pager: do wait_for_pager on signal
death), we call wait_for_pager() in the pager's signal handler. The
recent bug report revealed that this causes a deadlock in glibc at
aborting "git log" [*1*]. When this happens, git process is left
unterminated, and it can't be killed by SIGTERM but only by SIGKILL.
The problem is that wait_for_pager() function does more than waiting
for pager process's termination, but it does cleanups and printing
errors. Unfortunately, the functions that may be used in a signal
handler are very limited [*2*]. Particularly, malloc(), free() and the
variants can't be used in a signal handler because they take a mutex
internally in glibc. This was the cause of the deadlock above. Other
than the direct calls of malloc/free, many functions calling
malloc/free can't be used. strerror() is such one, either.
Also the usage of fflush() and printf() in a signal handler is bad,
although it seems working so far. In a safer side, we should avoid
them, too.
This patch tries to reduce the calls of such functions in signal
handlers. wait_for_signal() takes a flag and avoids the unsafe
calls. Also, finish_command_in_signal() is introduced for the
same reason. There the free() calls are removed, and only waits for
the children without whining at errors.

run-command: introduce capture_command helper
Something as simple as reading the stdout from a command
turns out to be rather hard to do right. Doing:
cmd.out = -1;
run_command(&cmd);
strbuf_read(&buf, cmd.out, 0);
can result in deadlock if the child process produces a large
amount of output. What happens is:
1. The parent spawns the child with its stdout connected
to a pipe, of which the parent is the sole reader.
2. The parent calls wait(), blocking until the child exits.
3. The child writes to stdout. If it writes more data than
the OS pipe buffer can hold, the write() call will
block.
This is a deadlock; the parent is waiting for the child to
exit, and the child is waiting for the parent to call
read().
So we might try instead:
start_command(&cmd);
strbuf_read(&buf, cmd.out, 0);
finish_command(&cmd);
But that is not quite right either. We are examining cmd.out
and running finish_command whether start_command succeeded
or not, which is wrong. Moreover, these snippets do not do
any error handling. If our read() fails, we must make sure
to still call finish_command (to reap the child process).
And both snippets failed to close the cmd.out descriptor,
which they must do (provided start_command succeeded).
Let's introduce a run-command helper that can make this a
bit simpler for callers to get right.

run-command: introduce capture_command helper
Something as simple as reading the stdout from a command
turns out to be rather hard to do right. Doing:
cmd.out = -1;
run_command(&cmd);
strbuf_read(&buf, cmd.out, 0);
can result in deadlock if the child process produces a large
amount of output. What happens is:
1. The parent spawns the child with its stdout connected
to a pipe, of which the parent is the sole reader.
2. The parent calls wait(), blocking until the child exits.
3. The child writes to stdout. If it writes more data than
the OS pipe buffer can hold, the write() call will
block.
This is a deadlock; the parent is waiting for the child to
exit, and the child is waiting for the parent to call
read().
So we might try instead:
start_command(&cmd);
strbuf_read(&buf, cmd.out, 0);
finish_command(&cmd);
But that is not quite right either. We are examining cmd.out
and running finish_command whether start_command succeeded
or not, which is wrong. Moreover, these snippets do not do
any error handling. If our read() fails, we must make sure
to still call finish_command (to reap the child process).
And both snippets failed to close the cmd.out descriptor,
which they must do (provided start_command succeeded).
Let's introduce a run-command helper that can make this a
bit simpler for callers to get right.

run-command: teach async threads to ignore SIGPIPE
Async processes can be implemented as separate forked
processes, or as threads (depending on the NO_PTHREADS
setting). In the latter case, if an async thread gets
SIGPIPE, it takes down the whole process. This is obviously
bad if the main process was not otherwise going to die, but
even if we were going to die, it means the main process does
not have a chance to report a useful error message.
There's also the small matter that forked async processes
will not take the main process down on a signal, meaning git
will behave differently depending on the NO_PTHREADS
setting.
This patch fixes it by adding a new flag to "struct async"
to block SIGPIPE just in the async thread. In theory, this
should always be on (which makes async threads behave more
like async processes), but we would first want to make sure
that each async process we spawn is careful about checking
return codes from write() and would not spew endlessly into
a dead pipe. So let's start with it as optional, and we can
enable it for specific sites in future patches.
The natural name for this option would be "ignore_sigpipe",
since that's what it does for the threaded case. But since
that name might imply that we are ignoring it in all cases
(including the separate-process one), let's call it
"isolate_sigpipe". What we are really asking for is
isolation. I.e., not to have our main process taken down by
signals spawned by the async process. How that is
implemented is up to the run-command code.

run-command: add an asynchronous parallel child processor
This allows to run external commands in parallel with ordered output
on stderr.
If we run external commands in parallel we cannot pipe the output directly
to the our stdout/err as it would mix up. So each process's output will
flow through a pipe, which we buffer. One subprocess can be directly
piped to out stdout/err for a low latency feedback to the user.
Example:
Let's assume we have 5 submodules A,B,C,D,E and each fetch takes a
different amount of time as the different submodules vary in size, then
the output of fetches in sequential order might look like this:
time -->
output: |---A---| |-B-| |-------C-------| |-D-| |-E-|
When we schedule these submodules into maximal two parallel processes,
a schedule and sample output over time may look like this:
process 1: |---A---| |-D-| |-E-|
process 2: |-B-| |-------C-------|
output: |---A---|B|---C-------|DE
So A will be perceived as it would run normally in the single child
version. As B has finished by the time A is done, we can dump its whole
progress buffer on stderr, such that it looks like it finished in no
time. Once that is done, C is determined to be the visible child and
its progress will be reported in real time.
So this way of output is really good for human consumption, as it only
changes the timing, not the actual output.
For machine consumption the output needs to be prepared in the tasks,
by either having a prefix per line or per block to indicate whose tasks
output is displayed, because the output order may not follow the
original sequential ordering:
|----A----| |--B--| |-C-|
will be scheduled to be all parallel:
process 1: |----A----|
process 2: |--B--|
process 3: |-C-|
output: |----A----|CB
This happens because C finished before B did, so it will be queued for
output before B.
To detect when a child has finished executing, we check interleaved
with other actions (such as checking the liveliness of children or
starting new processes) whether the stderr pipe still exists. Once a
child closed its stderr stream, we assume it is terminating very soon,
and use `finish_command()` from the single external process execution
interface to collect the exit status.
By maintaining the strong assumption of stderr being open until the
very end of a child process, we can avoid other hassle such as an
implementation using `waitpid(-1)`, which is not implemented in Windows.

to the our stdout/err as it would mix up. So each process's output will
flow through a pipe, which we buffer. One subprocess can be directly
piped to out stdout/err for a low latency feedback to the user.
Example:
Let's assume we have 5 submodules A,B,C,D,E and each fetch takes a
different amount of time as the different submodules vary in size, then
the output of fetches in sequential order might look like this:
time -->
output: |---A---| |-B-| |-------C-------| |-D-| |-E-|
When we schedule these submodules into maximal two parallel processes,
a schedule and sample output over time may look like this:
process 1: |---A---| |-D-| |-E-|
process 2: |-B-| |-------C-------|
output: |---A---|B|---C-------|DE
So A will be perceived as it would run normally in the single child
version. As B has finished by the time A is done, we can dump its whole
progress buffer on stderr, such that it looks like it finished in no
time. Once that is done, C is determined to be the visible child and
its progress will be reported in real time.
So this way of output is really good for human consumption, as it only
changes the timing, not the actual output.
For machine consumption the output needs to be prepared in the tasks,
by either having a prefix per line or per block to indicate whose tasks
output is displayed, because the output order may not follow the
original sequential ordering:
|----A----| |--B--| |-C-|
will be scheduled to be all parallel:
process 1: |----A----|
process 2: |--B--|
process 3: |-C-|
output: |----A----|CB
This happens because C finished before B did, so it will be queued for
output before B.
To detect when a child has finished executing, we check interleaved
with other actions (such as checking the liveliness of children or
starting new processes) whether the stderr pipe still exists. Once a
child closed its stderr stream, we assume it is terminating very soon,
and use `finish_command()` from the single external process execution
interface to collect the exit status.
By maintaining the strong assumption of stderr being open until the
very end of a child process, we can avoid other hassle such as an
implementation using `waitpid(-1)`, which is not implemented in Windows.

run-command: add an asynchronous parallel child processor
This allows to run external commands in parallel with ordered output
on stderr.
If we run external commands in parallel we cannot pipe the output directly
to the our stdout/err as it would mix up. So each process's output will
flow through a pipe, which we buffer. One subprocess can be directly
