From 03c7a30ceeaee8d70ff2e2cbd9b4bce896841bfa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Taylor Blau Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 20:47:06 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] pack-bitmap: reject pseudo-merge "sampleRate" of 0 The "bitmapPseudoMerge.*.sampleRate" configuration controls what fraction of unstable commits are included in each pseudo-merge group. The config validation accepts values in the range `[0, 1]`, but a value of exactly 0 causes a division by zero in `select_pseudo_merges_1()`: if (j % (uint32_t)(1.0 / group->sample_rate)) When `sample_rate` is 0, `1.0 / 0.0` produces `+inf`, and casting infinity to `uint32_t` is undefined behavior in C. On most platforms this yields 0, making the subsequent modulo operation (`j % 0`) a fatal arithmetic trap. This path was not previously reachable because an earlier bug caused all pseudo-merge candidates to be classified as "stable" (where the sampling rate is not used), regardless of their actual commit date. Now that the date classification is fixed, the unstable path is exercised and the division by zero can fire. Fix this by changing the validation to require a strict lower bound and thus reject 0.
