I think we'd need to mark it with the !SANITIZE_LEAK prereq until the leaks are actually fixed. Or simpler, just apply this on top of the leak fixes once they are ready. That ordering needs to be communicated to the maintainer, and the simplest way to do that is probably to just post a 3-patch series: your initial leak fix, a polished version of the one from Taylor, and then the test on top. > > My proposal would be to either move the logic into "test-bitmap.c", or > > to even better to write a unit test in "t/unit-tests/".

I don't think you can do a prereq for a unit-test file (though I might be wrong, as I have not really paid attention to that area). If the corruption offsets are easy-ish to compute statically (and it sounds like they mostly just depend on the hash algorithm size), then I'd actually prefer to just do it with "dd". That avoids extra C code, and simulates a real on-disk corruption more exactly (using real commands). Something like: diff --git a/t/t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh b/t/t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh index 042f62f16e..16bd607654 100755 --- a/t/t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh +++ b/t/t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh @@ -498,7 +498,17 @@ test_bitmap_cases () { git commit -am "add hello_world.txt" && git repack -adb && - test-tool bitmap load-corrupt + bitmap=$(ls .git/objects/pack/pack-*.bitmap) && + chmod +w "$bitmap" && + + # this matches the xor offset + offset=$((120 + $(test_oid rawsz))) && + printf "\241" | + dd of=$bitmap count=1 bs=1 conv=notrunc seek=$offset && + + git rev-list --count HEAD >expect && + git rev-list --use-bitmap-index --count HEAD >actual && + test_cmp expect actual ) ' } -Peff
