We still have them in toxav. That will need to be cleaned up later.
Flexible array members have very limited usefulness. In this particular
case, it's almost entirely useless. It confuses static analysers and is
yet one more C feature we need to understand and support. It is also the
only reason we need special support in tokstyle for calloc with a `+`
operator in the member size.
Use of `strcpy` in these particular cases was safe, but it's hard to
tell and also useless. `strcpy` would effectively need to do another
`strlen` which we already did.
Also removed sprintf, which was also safe in this case but it's easier to
be "obviously safe", especially for static analysers.
We have a more portable wrapper that is now also thread-safe. Also
stopped using sprintf in the one place we used it. This doesn't really
help much, but it allows us to forbid sprintf globally.
Also added a valgrind build to run it on every pull request. I've had to
disable a few tests because valgrind makes those run infinitely slowly,
consistently timing them out.
It's nice we are able to compile with `tcc`. Let's not break that.
CompCert is also neat, but its interpreter mode doesn't work on tox, so
we only use the compiler.
/var/lib/tox-bootstrapd on the host is owned by hosts's tox-bootstrapd
and chowned 700, but the container attempts to access it as its own
tox-bootstrapd user with possibly different uid:gid, which will fail if
host's tox-bootstrapd user has different uid:gid than the tox-bootstrapd
user inside the container.
This change makes the container use host's tox-bootstrapd uid:gid, which
fixes the issue.
The android warnings are disabled now because they suggest using
linux-only extensions of libc. Useful for android indeed, but we're
targeting non-android and non-linux systems as well.
The default stack size for musl-libc is 128kb. Therefore we should try to keep stack
allocations well below this limit in order to avoid stack overflows.
We no longer allow `int a, b;`. In the few cases where we used it, we
instead better
* limit the scope of the identifier (e.g. in a for-init-decl)
* split the line and have 2 separate declarators, because the
identifiers designate different types of things (e.g. friend numbers
and group numbers).
This check puts all of our code in a C++ anonymous namespace, which is
effectively making all functions `static`. This allows the compiler to
determine that a function is unused, so we can delete it.
* Use-after-free because we free network before dht in one case.
* Various unchecked allocs in tests (not so important).
* We used to not check whether ping arrays were actually allocated in DHT.
* `ping_kill` and `ping_array_kill` used to crash when passing NULL.
Also:
* Added an assert in all public API functions to ensure tox isn't NULL.
The error message you get from that is a bit nicer than "Segmentation
fault" when clients (or our tests) do things wrong.
* Decreased the sleep time in iterate_all_wait from 20ms to 5ms.
Everything seems to still work with 5ms, and this greatly decreases
the amount of time spent per test run, making oomer run much faster.
* Use fully static build for the bootstrap daemon.
* Store a sha256sum of the binary in the repo.
* Updated documentation for it.
* Add support for fully static build in cmake.
* Enable the docker build on every PR, so we catch changes to the
checksum. I realise this is adding toil, but having the checksum is
valuable for security of released binaries.
tox-bootstrapd can use around 600 TCP sockets during TCP server's normal
functioning. Many systems default to having a soft limit of 1024 open file
descriptors, which we are close to reaching, so it was suggested we bump that
limit to a higher number. iphy suggested increasing it to 32768.
