24 ;;; Commentary:
26 ;; This mode is fully documented in the Emacs user's manual.
28 ;; This was designed and implemented by Eric Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com>.
29 ;; Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>, Sebastian Kremer <sk@thp.uni-koeln.de>,
30 ;; and Richard Stallman contributed valuable criticism, support, and testing.
32 ;; Supported version-control systems presently include SCCS and RCS;
33 ;; your RCS version should be 5.6.2 or later for proper operation of
34 ;; the lock-breaking code.
36 ;; The RCS code assumes strict locking. You can support the RCS -x option
37 ;; by adding pairs to the vc-master-templates list.
39 ;; Proper function of the SCCS diff commands requires the shellscript vcdiff
40 ;; to be installed somewhere on Emacs's path for executables.
42 ;; If your site uses the ChangeLog convention supported by Emacs, the
43 ;; function vc-comment-to-change-log should prove a useful checkin hook.
45 ;; This code depends on call-process passing back the subprocess exit
46 ;; status. Thus, you need Emacs 18.58 or later to run it. For the
47 ;; vc-directory command to work properly as documented, you need 19.
48 ;; You also need Emacs 19's ring.el.
50 ;; The vc code maintains some internal state in order to reduce expensive
51 ;; version-control operations to a minimum. Some names are only computed
52 ;; once. If you perform version control operations with RCS/SCCS/CVS while
53 ;; vc's back is turned, or move/rename master files while vc is running,
54 ;; vc may get seriously confused. Don't do these things!
56 ;; Developer's notes on some concurrency issues are included at the end of
57 ;; the file.

1670 ;;; DEVELOPER'S NOTES ON CONCURRENCY PROBLEMS IN THIS CODE
1672 ;;; These may be useful to anyone who has to debug or extend the package.
1673 ;;;
1674 ;;; A fundamental problem in VC is that there are time windows between
1675 ;;; vc-next-action's computations of the file's version-control state and
1676 ;;; the actions that change it. This is a window open to lossage in a
1677 ;;; multi-user environment; someone else could nip in and change the state
1678 ;;; of the master during it.
1679 ;;;
1680 ;;; The performance problem is that rlog/prs calls are very expensive; we want
1681 ;;; to avoid them as much as possible.
1682 ;;;
1683 ;;; ANALYSIS:
1684 ;;;
1685 ;;; The performance problem, it turns out, simplifies in practice to the
1686 ;;; problem of making vc-locking-user fast. The two other functions that call
1687 ;;; prs/rlog will not be so commonly used that the slowdown is a problem; one
1688 ;;; makes snapshots, the other deletes the calling user's last change in the
1689 ;;; master.
1690 ;;;
1691 ;;; The race condition implies that we have to either (a) lock the master
1692 ;;; during the entire execution of vc-next-action, or (b) detect and
1693 ;;; recover from errors resulting from dispatch on an out-of-date state.
1694 ;;;
1695 ;;; Alternative (a) appears to be unfeasible. The problem is that we can't
1696 ;;; guarantee that the lock will ever be removed. Suppose a user starts a
1697 ;;; checkin, the change message buffer pops up, and the user, having wandered
1698 ;;; off to do something else, simply forgets about it?
1699 ;;;
1700 ;;; Alternative (b), on the other hand, works well with a cheap way to speed up
1701 ;;; vc-locking-user. Usually, if a file is registered, we can read its locked/
1702 ;;; unlocked state and its current owner from its permissions.
1703 ;;;
1704 ;;; This shortcut will fail if someone has manually changed the workfile's
1705 ;;; permissions; also if developers are munging the workfile in several
1706 ;;; directories, with symlinks to a master (in this latter case, the
1707 ;;; permissions shortcut will fail to detect a lock asserted from another
1708 ;;; directory).
1709 ;;;
1710 ;;; Note that these cases correspond exactly to the errors which could happen
1711 ;;; because of a competing checkin/checkout race in between two instances of
1712 ;;; vc-next-action.
1713 ;;;
1714 ;;; For VC's purposes, a workfile/master pair may have the following states:
1715 ;;;
1716 ;;; A. Unregistered. There is a workfile, there is no master.
1717 ;;;
1718 ;;; B. Registered and not locked by anyone.
1719 ;;;
1720 ;;; C. Locked by calling user and unchanged.
1721 ;;;
1722 ;;; D. Locked by the calling user and changed.
1723 ;;;
1724 ;;; E. Locked by someone other than the calling user.
1725 ;;;
1726 ;;; This makes for 25 states and 20 error conditions. Here's the matrix:
1727 ;;;
1728 ;;; VC's idea of state
1729 ;;; |
1730 ;;; V Actual state RCS action SCCS action Effect
1731 ;;; A B C D E

1737 ;;;
1738 ;;; All commands take the master file name as a last argument (not shown).
1739 ;;;
1740 ;;; In the discussion below, a "self-race" is a pathological situation in
1741 ;;; which VC operations are being attempted simultaneously by two or more
1742 ;;; Emacsen running under the same username.
1743 ;;;
1744 ;;; The vc-next-action code has the following windows:
1745 ;;;
1746 ;;; Window P:
1747 ;;; Between the check for existence of a master file and the call to
1748 ;;; admin/checkin in vc-buffer-admin (apparent state A). This window may
1749 ;;; never close if the initial-comment feature is on.
1750 ;;;
1751 ;;; Window Q:
1752 ;;; Between the call to vc-workfile-unchanged-p in and the immediately
1753 ;;; following revert (apparent state C).
1754 ;;;
1755 ;;; Window R:
1756 ;;; Between the call to vc-workfile-unchanged-p in and the following
1757 ;;; checkin (apparent state D). This window may never close.
1758 ;;;
1759 ;;; Window S:
1760 ;;; Between the unlock and the immediately following checkout during a
1761 ;;; revert operation (apparent state C). Included in window Q.
1762 ;;;
1763 ;;; Window T:
1764 ;;; Between vc-locking-user and the following checkout (apparent state B).
1765 ;;;
1766 ;;; Window U:
1767 ;;; Between vc-locking-user and the following revert (apparent state C).
1768 ;;; Includes windows Q and S.
1769 ;;;
1770 ;;; Window V:
1771 ;;; Between vc-locking-user and the following checkin (apparent state
1772 ;;; D). This window may never be closed if the user fails to complete the
1773 ;;; checkin message. Includes window R.
1774 ;;;
1775 ;;; Window W:
1776 ;;; Between vc-locking-user and the following steal-lock (apparent
1777 ;;; state E). This window may never close if the user fails to complete
1778 ;;; the steal-lock message. Includes window X.
1779 ;;;
1780 ;;; Window X:
1781 ;;; Between the unlock and the immediately following re-lock during a
1782 ;;; steal-lock operation (apparent state E). This window may never cloce
1783 ;;; if the user fails to complete the steal-lock message.
1784 ;;;
1785 ;;; Errors:
1786 ;;;
1787 ;;; Apparent state A ---
1789 ;;; 1. File looked unregistered but is actually registered and not locked.
1790 ;;;
1791 ;;; Potential cause: someone else's admin during window P, with

1793 ;;;
1794 ;;; RCS: ci will fail with a "no lock set by <user>" message.
1795 ;;; SCCS: admin will fail with error (ad19).
1796 ;;;
1797 ;;; We can let these errors be passed up to the user.
1798 ;;;
1799 ;;; 2. File looked unregistered but is actually locked by caller, unchanged.
1800 ;;;
1801 ;;; Potential cause: self-race during window P.
1802 ;;;
1803 ;;; RCS: will revert the file to the last saved version and unlock it.

1964 ;;;
1965 ;;; Potential cause: the other user relinquishing a lock followed by
1966 ;;; a self-race, both in window W.
1967 ;;;
1968 ;;; Under both RCS and SCCS, both unlock and lock will succeed, making
1969 ;;; the sequence a no-op.
1970 ;;;
1971 ;;; 20. File looks like it's locked by some other user, but it's actually

1975 ;;;
1976 ;;; PROBLEM CASES:
1977 ;;;
1978 ;;; In order of decreasing severity:
1979 ;;;
1980 ;;; Cases 11 and 15 under RCS are the only one that potentially lose work.
1981 ;;; They would require a self-race for this to happen.
1982 ;;;
1983 ;;; Case 13 in RCS loses information about previous deltas, retaining
1984 ;;; only the information in the current workfile. This can only happen
1985 ;;; if the master file gets nuked in window P.
1986 ;;;
1987 ;;; Case 3 in RCS and case 15 under SCCS insert a redundant delta with
1988 ;;; no change comment in the master. This would require a self-race in
1989 ;;; window P or R respectively.
1990 ;;;
1991 ;;; Cases 2, 10, 19 and 20 do extra work, but make no changes.
1992 ;;;
1993 ;;; Unfortunately, it appears to me that no recovery is possible in these
1994 ;;; cases. They don't yield error messages, so there's no way to tell that
1995 ;;; a race condition has occurred.
1996 ;;;
1997 ;;; All other cases don't change either the workfile or the master, and
1998 ;;; trigger command errors which the user will see.
1999 ;;;
2000 ;;; Thus, there is no explicit recovery code.
