2018-09-16fix null pointer subtraction and comparison in stdioRich Felker-1/+1
morally, for null pointers a and b, a-b, a<b, and a>b should all be defined as 0; however, C does not define any of them. the stdio implementation makes heavy use of such pointer comparison and subtraction for buffer logic, and also uses null pos/base/end pointers to indicate that the FILE is not in the corresponding (read or write) mode ready for accesses through the buffer. all of the comparisons are fixed trivially by using != in place of the relational operators, since the opposite relation (e.g. pos>end) is logically impossible. the subtractions have been reviewed to check that they are conditional the stream being in the appropriate reading- or writing-through-buffer mode, with checks added where needed. in fgets and getdelim, the checks added should improve performance for unbuffered streams by avoiding a do-nothing call to memchr, and should be negligible for buffered streams.
2018-09-12reduce spurious inclusion of libc.hRich Felker-1/+0
libc.h was intended to be a header for access to global libc state and related interfaces, but ended up included all over the place because it was the way to get the weak_alias macro. most of the inclusions removed here are places where weak_alias was needed. a few were recently introduced for hidden. some go all the way back to when libc.h defined CANCELPT_BEGIN and _END, and all (wrongly implemented) cancellation points had to include it. remaining spurious users are mostly callers of the LOCK/UNLOCK macros and files that use the LFS64 macro to define the awful *64 aliases. in a few places, new inclusion of libc.h is added because several internal headers no longer implicitly include libc.h. declarations for __lockfile and __unlockfile are moved from libc.h to stdio_impl.h so that the latter does not need libc.h. putting them in libc.h made no sense at all, since the macros in stdio_impl.h are needed to use them correctly anyway.
2017-09-04handle whitespace before %% in scanfBartosz Brachaczek-2/+6
this is mandated by C and POSIX standards and is in accordance with glibc behavior.
2017-03-14fix wide scanf's use of a compound literal past its lifetimeRich Felker-1/+2
2015-06-13fix idiom for setting stdio stream orientation to wideRich Felker-1/+1
the old idiom, f->mode |= f->mode+1, was adapted from the idiom for setting byte orientation, f->mode |= f->mode-1, but the adaptation was incorrect. unless the stream was alreasdy set byte-oriented, this code incremented f->mode each time it was executed, which would eventually lead to overflow. it could be fixed by changing it to f->mode |= 1, but upcoming changes will require slightly more work at the time of wide orientation, so it makes sense to just call fwide. as an optimization in the single-character functions, fwide is only called if the stream is not already wide-oriented.
2014-07-02fix failure of wide printf/scanf functions to set wide orientationRich Felker-0/+2
in some cases, these functions internally call a byte-based input or output function before calling getwc/putwc, so they cannot rely on the latter to set the orientation.
2013-12-12include cleanups: remove unused headers and add feature test macrosSzabolcs Nagy-3/+0
2013-08-31fix invalid %m format crash in wide scanf variantsRich Felker-0/+2
the wide variant was missed in the previous commit.
2013-07-20fix uninitialized/stale use of alloc (%m modifier) flag in scanfRich Felker-0/+2
for conversion specifiers, alloc is always set when the specifier is parsed. however, if scanf stops due to mismatching literal text, either an uninitialized (if no conversions have been performed yet) or stale (from the previous conversion) of the flag will be used, possibly causing an invalid pointer to be passed to free when the function returns.
2013-06-22fix scanf %c conversion wrongly storing a terminating null byteRich Felker-2/+4
this seems to have been a regression from the refactoring which added the 'm' modifier.
2013-06-06implement 'm' modifier for wide scanf variantsRich Felker-7/+40
2013-06-05refactor wide-char scanf string handlingRich Felker-55/+32
this brings the wide version of the code into alignment with the byte-based version, in preparation for adding support for the m (malloc) modifier.
2013-04-05Add ABI compatability aliases.Isaac Dunham-0/+3
GNU used several extensions that were incompatible with C99 and POSIX, so they used alternate names for the standard functions. The result is that we need these to run standards-conformant programs that were linked with glibc.
2012-09-06use restrict everywhere it's required by c99 and/or posix 2008Rich Felker-1/+1
to deal with the fact that the public headers may be used with pre-c99 compilers, __restrict is used in place of restrict, and defined appropriately for any supported compiler. we also avoid the form [restrict] since older versions of gcc rejected it due to a bug in the original c99 standard, and instead use the form *restrict.
2012-04-17fix wide scanf's handling of input failure on %c, and simplify %[Rich Felker-5/+6
2012-04-17fix failure to distinguish input/match failure in wide %[ scanfRich Felker-1/+3
this also includes a related fix for vswscanf's read function, which was returning a spurious (uninitialized) character for empty strings.
2012-04-17fix broken %s and %[ with no width specifier in wide scanfRich Felker-3/+7
2012-04-17make wide scanf %[ respect widthRich Felker-2/+3
2012-04-17fix wide scanf to respect field width for stringsRich Felker-4/+7
2012-04-17introduce new wide scanf code and remove the last remnants of old scanfRich Felker-13/+284
at this point, strto* and all scanf family functions are using the new unified integer and floating point parser/converter code. the wide scanf is largely a wrapper for ordinary byte-based scanf; since numbers can only contain ascii characters, only strings need to be handled specially.
