make gitwrapper ignore 'permission denied' for repository paths

We recommend that gotsh users should not have direct filesystem access to repositories served by gotd. Which means admins will be setting things up as follows if public read-access should be denied: chown _gotd /git chmod 700 /git su -m _gotd -c 'gotadmin init /git/repo.git" However, gitwrapper would error out when repositories listed in gotd.conf were inaccessible to the user invoking gitwrapper: git-upload-pack: /etc/gotd.conf:2: realpath /git/repo.git: Permission denied Make gitwrapper ignore such errors as they are expected in this situation. While here, add a PROC_GITWRAPPER process ID for use as a global variable parse.y can check while special-casing any specific behaviour required by gitwrapper. (The worse alternative would have been adding a new global variable to parse.y just to control the behaviour on realpath errors.) ok op@

drop unused strlen; ok stsp@

remove dependency of gitwrapper on gotd/auth.c

Move gotd_auth_parseuid() from auth.c to parse.y as gotd_parseuid(), and remove auth.c from the list of source files required by gitwrapper.


Thomas Adam

remove dependency of gitwrapper on gotd/listen.c

Move gotd_find_uid_connection_limit() from listen.c into parse.y and remove listen.c from the list of source files required by gitwrapper.


Thomas Adam

make gotd/gitwrapper start up even if a repository is missing on disk

This should result in more useful behaviour when gitwrapper runs and repositories listed in gotd.conf do not yet exist or do no longer exist.

gotd.conf: fix memleak in `protect' error path and disallow dups too

Thomas Adam

avoid gitwrapper printing a warning when /etc/gotd.conf does not exist

gotd still requires the config file, of course, but gitwrapper must treat is as optional and remain silent if the file cannot be found.


Thomas Adam

add gitwrapper(1)

ok op@, tracey@ earlier version

gotd requires a config file; don't fail silently when gotd.conf cannot be read

Fixes an issue encountered by mlarkin@ where the auth process was working with an empty list of repositories and kept saying it could not find a repository which was obviously listed in gotd.conf. Now we can see errors from fopen() in the logs instead. Old code was copied from gotwebd where the config file is optional.

portable: rework SHA detection

Simply the SHA detection by not predicating on libcrypto, but instead checking individual header files.


Thomas Adam

portable: remove sha1.h; found portably

Remove sha1.h as this is found portably across systems.


Thomas Adam

include sha2.h too where sha1.h is included

In preparation for wide sha256 support; stsp@ agrees. Change done mechanically with find . -iname \*.[cy] -exec sam {} + X ,x/<sha1\.h>/i/\n#include <sha2.h>


Thomas Adam

rm unused boolean grammar. ok stsp@

gotd: move socket path check to parse.y and error from the main process

It's handy to have a "bad unix socket path" error being reported directly from the main process since can get caught by `gotd -n'. ok jamsek stsp

gotd: move nrepos check to parse_config

Thomas Adam

call realpath() during early startup in gotd's parse.y

This ensures that all repositories exist when the process is first started. It will also help to avoid an "rpath" pledge promise in a future gotd which uses a separate session process, by avoiding realpath() calls while starting new processes.


Thomas Adam

switch gotd.conf syntax from 'unix_socket' to 'listen on'

ok op@


Thomas Adam

remove the gotsh group requirement from gotd; any user can now connect

Repository access is now controlled by access rules in gotd.conf, and concurrent connections to the gotd socket by local users are limited by the listen process. We should keep refining our anti-DoS measures in the future, but at least we have something in place now. ok jamsek, op


Thomas Adam

simplify gotd' timeouts string parsing

no need to duplicate what strtonum does; pass the *real* maximum value allowed to it directly. ok stsp@


Thomas Adam

gotd: allow to express timeouts using minutes/hours

This allows to use a suffix to indicate the unit of measure, such as "1h" for one hour or "30m" for 30 minutes. The suffix "s" for seconds is also accepted for completeness. ok stsp


Thomas Adam

enforce gotd request timeout > 0; the code doesn't handle zero right now
