Checking the work tree status is quite slow on Windows, due to slow
`lstat()` emulation (git calls `lstat()` once for each file in the
index). Windows operating system APIs seem to be much better at scanning
the status of entire directories than checking single files.
Add an `lstat()` implementation that uses a cache for lstat data. Cache
misses read the entire parent directory and add it to the cache.
Subsequent `lstat()` calls for the same directory are served directly
from the cache.
Also implement `opendir()`/`readdir()`/`closedir()` so that they create
and use directory listings in the cache.
The cache doesn't track file system changes and doesn't plug into any
modifying file APIs, so it has to be explicitly enabled for git functions
that don't modify the working copy.
Note: in an earlier version of this patch, the cache was always active and
tracked file system changes via ReadDirectoryChangesW. However, this was
much more complex and had negative impact on the performance of modifying
git commands such as 'git checkout'.

Ensure key CMake option values are part of the CMake output to
facilitate user support when tool updates impact the wider CMake
actions, particularly ongoing 'improvements' in Visual Studio.
These CMake displays perform the same function as the build-options.txt
provided in the main Git for Windows. CMake is already chatty.
The setting of CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS is also reported.
Include the environment's CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS value which
may have been propogated to CMake's internal value.
Testing the CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS processing can be difficult

In Git-for-Windows, work on using ARM64 has progressed. The
commit 2d94b77b27 (cmake: allow building for Windows/ARM64, 2020-12-04)
failed to notice that /compat/vcbuild/vcpkg_install.bat will default to
using the "x64-windows" architecture for the vcpkg installation if not set,
but CMake is not told of this default. Commit 635b6d99b3 (vcbuild: install
ARM64 dependencies when building ARM64 binaries, 2020-01-31) later updated
vcpkg_install.bat to accept an arch (%1) parameter, but retained the default.
This default is neccessary for the use case where the project directory is
opened directly in Visual Studio, which will find and build a CMakeLists.txt
file without any parameters, thus expecting use of the default setting.
Also Visual studio will generate internal .sln solution and .vcxproj project
files needed for some extension tools. Inform users of the additional
.sln/.vcxproj generation.

Git's regular Makefile mentions that HOST_CPU should be defined when cross-compiling Git: 37796bca76/Makefile (L438-L439)
This is then used to set the GIT_HOST_CPU variable when compiling Git: 37796bca76/Makefile (L1337-L1341)
Then, when the user runs `git version --build-options`, it returns that value: 37796bca76/help.c (L658)
This commit adds the same functionality to the CMake configuration. Users can now set -DHOST_CPU= to set the target architecture.

On Windows, there are two kinds of executables, console ones and
non-console ones. Git's executables are all console ones.
When launching the former e.g. in a scheduled task, a CMD window pops
up. This is not what we want for the tasks installed via the `git
maintenance` command.
To work around this, let's introduce `headless-git.exe`, which is a
non-console program that does _not_ pop up any window. All it does is to
re-launch `git.exe`, suppressing that console window, passing through
all command-line arguments as-are.

It already caused problems with the test suite that the directory

without its file extension: `./git` is ambiguous, it could refer both to
the directory `git/` as well as to `git.exe`.
Now there is one more problem: when our GitHub workflow runs on the
`vs/master` branch, it fails in all but the Windows builds, as they want
to write the file `git` but there is already a directory in the way.

Create another thread to watch over the daemon process and
automatically shut it down if necessary.
This commit creates the basic framework for a "health" thread
to monitor the daemon and/or the file system. Later commits
will add platform-specific code to do the actual work.
The "health" thread is intended to monitor conditions that
would be difficult to track inside the IPC thread pool and/or
the file system listener threads. For example, when there are
file system events outside of the watched worktree root or if
we want to have an idle-timeout auto-shutdown feature.
This commit creates the health thread itself, defines the thread-proc
and sets up the thread's event loop. It integrates this new thread
into the existing IPC and Listener thread models.
This commit defines the API to the platform-specific code where all of
the monitoring will actually happen.
The platform-specific code for MacOS is just stubs. Meaning that the
health thread will immediately exit on MacOS, but that is OK and
expected. Future work can define MacOS-specific monitoring.
The platform-specific code for Windows sets up enough of the
WaitForMultipleObjects() machinery to watch for system and/or custom
events. Currently, the set of wait handles only includes our custom
shutdown event (sent from our other theads). Later commits in this
series will extend the set of wait handles to monitor other
conditions.

This commit introduces the `core.fsyncMethod` configuration
knob, which can currently be set to `fsync` or `writeout-only`.
The new writeout-only mode attempts to tell the operating system to
flush its in-memory page cache to the storage hardware without issuing a
CACHE_FLUSH command to the storage controller.
Writeout-only fsync is significantly faster than a vanilla fsync on
common hardware, since data is written to a disk-side cache rather than
all the way to a durable medium. Later changes in this patch series will
take advantage of this primitive to implement batching of hardware
flushes.
When git_fsync is called with FSYNC_WRITEOUT_ONLY, it may fail and the
caller is expected to do an ordinary fsync as needed.
On Apple platforms, the fsync system call does not issue a CACHE_FLUSH
directive to the storage controller. This change updates fsync to do
fcntl(F_FULLFSYNC) to make fsync actually durable. We maintain parity
with existing behavior on Apple platforms by setting the default value
of the new core.fsyncMethod option.

There are many situations in which having access to a cryptographically
secure pseudorandom number generator (CSPRNG) is helpful. In the
future, we'll encounter one of these when dealing with temporary files.
To make this possible, let's add a function which reads from a system
CSPRNG and returns some bytes.
We know that all systems will have such an interface. A CSPRNG is
required for a secure TLS or SSH implementation and a Git implementation
which provided neither would be of little practical use. In addition,
POSIX is set to standardize getentropy(2) in the next version, so in the
(potentially distant) future we can rely on that.
For systems which lack one of the other interfaces, we provide the
ability to use OpenSSL's CSPRNG. OpenSSL is highly portable and
functions on practically every known OS, and we know it will have access
to some source of cryptographically secure randomness. We also provide
support for the arc4random in libbsd for folks who would prefer to use
that.
Because this is a security sensitive interface, we take some
precautions. We either succeed by filling the buffer completely as we
requested, or we fail. We don't return partial data because the caller
will almost never find that to be a useful behavior.
Specify a makefile knob which users can use to specify one or more
suitable CSPRNGs, and turn the multiple string options into a set of
defines, since we cannot match on strings in the preprocessor. We allow
multiple options to make the job of handling this in autoconf easier.
The order of options is important here. On systems with arc4random,
which is most of the BSDs, we use that, since, except on MirBSD and
macOS, it uses ChaCha20, which is extremely fast, and sits entirely in
userspace, avoiding a system call. We then prefer getrandom over
getentropy, because the former has been available longer on Linux, and
then OpenSSL. Finally, if none of those are available, we use
/dev/urandom, because most Unix-like operating systems provide that API.
We prefer options that don't involve device files when possible because
those work in some restricted environments where device files may not be
available.
Set the configuration variables appropriately for Linux and the BSDs,
including macOS, as well as Windows and NonStop. We specifically only
consider versions which receive publicly available security support
here. For the same reason, we don't specify getrandom(2) on Linux,
because CentOS 7 doesn't support it in glibc (although its kernel does)
and we don't want to resort to making syscalls.
Finally, add a test helper to allow this to be tested by hand and in
tests. We don't add any tests, since invoking the CSPRNG is not likely
to produce interesting, reproducible results.

The C99 standard was released in January 1999, now 22 years ago. It
provides a variety of useful features, including variadic arguments for
macros, declarations after statements, designated initializers, and a
wide variety of other useful features, many of which we already use.
We'd like to take advantage of these features, but we want to be
cautious. As far as we know, all major compilers now support C99 or a
later C standard, such as C11 or C17. POSIX has required C99 support as
a requirement for the 2001 revision, so we can safely assume any POSIX
system which we are interested in supporting has C99.
Even MSVC, long a holdout against modern C, now supports both C11 and
C17 with an appropriate update. Moreover, even if people are using an
older version of MSVC on these systems, they will generally need some
implementation of the standard Unix utilities for the testsuite, and GNU
coreutils, the most common option, has required C99 since 2009.
Therefore, we can safely assume that a suitable version of GCC or clang
is available to users even if their version of MSVC is not sufficiently
capable.
Let's add a test balloon to git-compat-util.h to see if anyone is using
an older compiler. We'll add a comment telling people how to enable
this functionality on GCC and Clang, even though modern versions of both
will automatically do the right thing, and ask people still experiencing
a problem to report that to us on the list.
Note that C89 compilers don't provide the __STDC_VERSION__ macro, so we
use a well-known hack of using "- 0". On compilers with this macro, it
doesn't change the value, and on C89 compilers, the macro will be
replaced with nothing, and our value will be 0.
For sparse, we explicitly request the gnu99 style because we've
traditionally taken advantage of some GCC- and clang-specific extensions
when available and we'd like to retain the ability to do that. sparse
also defaults to C89 without it, so things will fail for us if we don't.
Update the cmake configuration to require C11 for MSVC. We do this
because this will make MSVC to use C11, since it does not explicitly
support C99. We do this with a compiler options because setting the
C_STANDARD option does not work in our CI on MSVC and at the moment, we
don't want to require C11 for Unix compilers.
In the Makefile, don't set any compiler flags for the compiler itself,
since on some systems, such as FreeBSD, we actually need C11, and asking
for C99 causes things to fail to compile. The error message should make
it obvious what's going wrong and allow a user to set the appropriate
option when building in the event they're using a Unix compiler that
doesn't support it by default.

Remove the sane_grep() shell function in git-sh-setup. The two reasons
for why it existed don't apply anymore:
1. It was added due to GNU grep supporting GREP_OPTIONS. See
e1622bfcba (Protect scripted Porcelains from GREP_OPTIONS insanity,
2009-11-23).
Newer versions of GNU grep ignore that, but even on older versions
its existence won't matter, none of these sane_grep() uses care
about grep's output, they're merely using it to check if a string
exists in a file or stream. We also don't care about the "LC_ALL=C"
that "sane_grep" was using, these greps for fixed or ASCII strings
will behave the same under any locale.
2. The SANE_TEXT_GREP added in 71b401032b (sane_grep: pass "-a" if
grep accepts it, 2016-03-08) isn't needed either, none of these grep
uses deal with binary data.

Make githooks(5) the source of truth for what hooks git supports, and
punt out early on hooks we don't know about in find_hook(). This
ensures that the documentation and the C code's idea about existing
hooks doesn't diverge.
We still have Perl and Python code running its own hooks, but that'll
be addressed by Emily Shaffer's upcoming "git hook run" command.
This resolves a long-standing TODO item in bugreport.c of there being
no centralized listing of hooks, and fixes a bug with the bugreport
listing only knowing about 1/4 of the p4 hooks. It didn't know about
the recent "reference-transaction" hook either.
We could make the find_hook() function die() or BUG() out if the new
known_hook() returned 0, but let's make it return NULL just as it does
when it can't find a hook of a known type. Making it die() is overly
anal, and unlikely to be what we need in catching stupid typos in the
name of some new hook hardcoded in git.git's sources. By making this
be tolerant of unknown hook names, changes in a later series to make
"git hook run" run arbitrary user-configured hook names will be easier
to implement.
I have not been able to directly test the CMake change being made
here. Since 4c2c38e800 (ci: modification of main.yml to use cmake for
vs-build job, 2020-06-26) some of the Windows CI has a hard dependency
on CMake, this change works there, and is to my eyes an obviously
correct use of a pattern established in previous CMake changes,
namely:
- 061c2240b1 (Introduce CMake support for configuring Git,
2020-06-12)
- 709df95b78 (help: move list_config_help to builtin/help,
2020-04-16)
- 976aaedca0 (msvc: add a Makefile target to pre-generate the Visual
Studio solution, 2019-07-29)
The LC_ALL=C is needed because at least in my locale the dash ("-") is
ignored for the purposes of sorting, which results in a different
order. I'm not aware of anything in git that has a hard dependency on
the order, but e.g. the bugreport output would end up using whatever
locale was in effect when git was compiled.

Some users have expressed interest in a more "batteries included" way of
building via CMake[1], and a big part of that is providing easier access
to tooling external tools.
A straightforward way to accomplish this is to make it as simple as
possible is to enable the generation of the compile_commands.json file,
which is supported by many tools such as: clang-tidy, clang-format,
sourcetrail, etc.
This does come with a small run-time overhead during the configuration
step (~6 seconds on my machine):
Time to configure with CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=TRUE
real 1m9.840s
user 0m0.031s
sys 0m0.031s
Time to configure with CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=FALSE
real 1m3.195s
user 0m0.015s
sys 0m0.015s
This seems like a small enough price to pay to make the project more
accessible to newer users. Additionally there are other large projects
like llvm [2] which has had this enabled by default for >6 years at the
time of this writing, and no real negative consequences that I can find
with my search-skills.
NOTE: That the compile_commands.json is currently produced only when
using the Ninja and Makefile generators. See The CMake documentation[3]
for more info.

VS 2019 generator by default, making it impossible for Visual
Studio to configure the project in the likely event that it couldn't
find the dependencies.
- Inexperienced users of CMake are very likely to get tripped up by
the errors caused by a lack of vcpkg, making the above bullet point
both annoying and hard to debug.
As such, let's make using vcpkg the default on windows. Users who want
to avoid using vcpkg can disable it by passing -DNO_VCPKG=TRUE.
