| * | mbrtowc: Fix wrong return value when n > UINT_MAX•••mbrtowc truncates n to unsigned int when storing its copy.
If n > UINT_MAX and the locale is not POSIX, the function will
return a wrong value greater than UINT_MAX on the success path.

| * | rewrite wcsnrtombs to fix buffer overflow and other bugs•••the original wcsnrtombs implementation, which has been largely
untouched since 0.5.0, attempted to build input-length-limiting
conversion on top of wcsrtombs, which only limits output length. as
best I recall, this choice was made out of a mix of disdain over
having yet another variant function to implement (added in POSIX 2008;
not standard C) and preference not to switch things around and
implement the wcsrtombs in terms of the more general new function,
probably over namespace issues. the strategy employed was to impose
output limits that would ensure the input limit wasn't exceeded, then
finish up the tail character-at-a-time. unfortunately, none of that
worked correctly.
first, the logic in the wcsrtombs loop was wrong in that it could
easily get stuck making no forward progress, by imposing an output
limit too small to convert even one character.
the character-at-a-time loop that followed was even worse. it made no
effort to ensure that the converted multibyte character would fit in
the remaining output space, only that there was a nonzero amount of
output space remaining. it also employed an incorrect interpretation
of wcrtomb's interface contract for converting the null character,
thereby failing to act on end of input, and remaining space accounting
was subject to unsigned wrap-around. together these errors allow
unbounded overflow of the destination buffer, controlled by input
length limit and input wchar_t string contents.
given the extent to which this function was broken, it's plausible
that most applications that would have been rendered exploitable were
sufficiently broken not to be usable in the first place. however, it's
also plausible that common (especially ASCII-only) inputs succeeded in
the wcsrtombs loop, which mostly worked, while leaving the wildly
erroneous code in the second loop exposed to particular non-ASCII
inputs.
CVE-2020-28928 has been assigned for this issue.

| * | fix aliasing-based undefined behavior in mbsrtowcs•••mbsrtowcs contains "vectorized" loops to quickly step over bytes
without the high bit set; these have undefined behavior by virtue of
aliasing uint32_t over top of char data for the accesses.
commit 4d0a82170a25464c39522d7190b9fe302045ddb2 fixed the
corresponding usage in string functions by using the may_alias
attribute conditional on __GNUC__ and disabled the vectorized code in
its absence. do the same for mbsrtowcs.

| * | reduce spurious inclusion of libc.h•••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.

| * | define and use internal macros for hidden visibility, weak refs•••this cleans up what had become widespread direct inline use of "GNU C"
style attributes directly in the source, and lowers the barrier to
increased use of hidden visibility, which will be useful to recovering
some of the efficiency lost when the protected visibility hack was
dropped in commit dc2f368e565c37728b0d620380b849c3a1ddd78f, especially
on archs where the PLT ABI is costly.

| * | fix erroneous acceptance of f4 9x xx xx code sequences by utf-8 decoder•••the DFA table controlling accepted ranges for the f4 prefix used an
incorrect upper bound of 0xa0 where it should have been 0x90, allowing
such sequences to be accepted and decoded as non-Unicode-scalar values
0x110000 through 0x11ffff.

| * | fix erroneous stop before input limit in mbsnrtowcs and wcsnrtombs•••the value computed as an output limit that bounds the amount of input
consumed below the input limit was incorrectly being used as the
actual amount of input consumed. instead, compute the actual amount of
input consumed as a difference of pointers before and after the
conversion.

confusion about whether the permissions granted actually apply to all

| * | byte-based C locale, phase 1: multibyte character handling functions•••this patch makes the functions which work directly on multibyte
characters treat the high bytes as individual abstract code units
rather than as multibyte sequences when MB_CUR_MAX is 1. since
MB_CUR_MAX is presently defined as a constant 4, all of the new code
added is dead code, and optimizing compilers' code generation should
not be affected at all. a future commit will activate the new code.
as abstract code units, bytes 0x80 to 0xff are represented by wchar_t
values 0xdf80 to 0xdfff, at the end of the surrogates range. this
ensures that they will never be misinterpreted as Unicode characters,
and that all wctype functions return false for these "characters"
without needing locale-specific logic. a high range outside of Unicode
such as 0x7fffff80 to 0x7fffffff was also considered, but since C11's
char16_t also needs to be able to represent conversions of these
bytes, the surrogate range was the natural choice.

| * | fix btowc corner case•••btowc is required to interpret its argument by conversion to unsigned
char, unless the argument is equal to EOF. since the conversion to
produces a non-character value anyway, we can just unconditionally
convert, for now.

| * | remove cruft for libc struct accessor function and broken visibility•••these were hacks to work around toolchains that could not properly
optimize PIC accesses based on visibility and would generate GOT
lookups even for hidden data, which broke the old dynamic linker.
since commit f3ddd173806fd5c60b3f034528ca24542aecc5b9 it no longer
matters; the dynamic linker does not assume accessibility of this data
until stage 3.

| * | fix return value computation in one code path of wcsnrtombs•••the affected code was wrongly counting characters instead of bytes.
| Rich Felker | 2014-12-18 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | implement a private state for the uchar.h functions•••The C standard is imperative on that:
7.28.1 ... If ps is a null pointer, each function uses its own internal
mbstate_t object instead, which is initialized at program startup to
the initial conversion state;
and these functions are also not supposed to implicitly use the state of
the wchar.h functions:
7.29.6.3 ... The implementation behaves as if no library function calls
these functions with a null pointer for ps.
Previously this resulted in two bugs.
- The functions c16rtomb and mbrtoc16 would crash when called with ps
set to null.
- The function mbrtoc32 used the private state of mbrtowc, which it
is not allowed to do.

| * | fix aliasing violations in mbtowc and mbrtowc•••these functions were setting wc to point to wchar_t aliasing itself as
a "cheap" way to support null wc arguments. doing so was anything but
cheap, since even without the aliasing violation, it would limit the
compiler's ability to optimize.
making wc point to a dummy object is equally easy and does not suffer
from the above problems.

| * | fix incorrect end pointer in some cases when wcsrtombs stops early•••when wcsrtombs stopped due to hitting zero remaining space in the
output buffer, it was wrongly clearing the position pointer as if it
had completed the conversion successfully.
this commit rearranges the code somewhat to make a clear separation
between the cases of ending due to running out of output buffer space,
and ending due to reaching the end of input or an illegal sequence in
the input. the new branches have been arranged with the hope of
optimizing more common cases, too.

| * | fix buffer overflow in mbsrtowcs•••issue reported by Michael Forney:
"If wn becomes 0 after processing a chunk of 4, mbsrtowcs currently
continues on, wrapping wn around to -1, causing the rest of the string
to be processed.
This resulted in buffer overruns if there was only space in ws for wn
wide characters."
the original patch submitted added an additional check for !wn after
the loop; to avoid extra branching, I instead just changed the wn>=4
check to wn>=5 to ensure that at least one slot remains after the
word-at-a-time loop runs. this should not slow down the tail
processing on real-world usage, since an extra slot that can't be
processed in the word-at-a-time loop is needed for the null
termination anyway.

| * | mbrtowc: do not leave mbstate_t in permanent-fail state after EILSEQ•••the standard is clear that the old behavior is conforming: "In this
case, [EILSEQ] shall be stored in errno and the conversion state is
undefined."
however, the specification of mbrtowc has one peculiarity when the
source argument is a null pointer: in this case, it's required to
behave as mbrtowc(NULL, "", 1, ps). no motivation is provided for this
requirement, but the natural one that comes to mind is that the intent
is to reset the mbstate_t object. for stateful encodings, such
behavior is actually specified: "If the corresponding wide character
is the null wide character, the resulting state described shall be the
initial conversion state." but in the case of UTF-8 where the
mbstate_t object contains a partially-decoded character rather than a
shift state, a subsequent '\0' byte indicates that the previous
partial character is incomplete and thus an illegal sequence.
naturally, applications using their own mbstate_t object should clear
it themselves after an error, but the standard presently provides no
way to clear the builtin mbstate_t object used when the ps argument is
a null pointer. I suspect this issue may be addressed in the future by
specifying that a null source argument resets the state, as this seems
to have been the intent all along.
for what it's worth, this change also slightly reduces code size.

| * | implement mbtowc directly, not as a wrapper for mbrtowc•••the interface contract for mbtowc admits a much faster implementation
than mbrtowc can achieve; wrapping mbrtowc with an extra call frame
only made the situation worse.
since the regex implementation uses mbtowc already, this change should
improve regex performance too. it may be possible to improve
performance in other places internally by switching from mbrtowc to
mbtowc.
| Rich Felker | 2013-04-08 | 1 | -5/+39 |
| * | optimize mbrtowc•••this simple change, in my measurements, makes about a 7% performance
improvement. at first glance this change would seem like a
compiler-specific hack, since the modified code is not even used.
however, I suspect the reason is that I'm eliminating a second path
into the main body of the code, allowing the compiler more flexibility
to optimize the normal (hot) path into the main body. so even if it
weren't for the measurable (and quite notable) difference in
performance, I think the change makes sense.

| * | fix out-of-bounds access in UTF-8 decoding•••SA and SB are used as the lowest and highest valid starter bytes, but
the value of SB was one-past the last valid starter. this caused
access past the end of the state table when the illegal byte '\xf5'
was encountered in a starter position. the error did not show up in
full-character decoding tests, since the bogus state read from just
past the table was unlikely to admit any continuation bytes as valid,
but would have shown up had we tested feeding '\xf5' to the
byte-at-a-time decoding in mbrtowc: it would cause the funtion to
wrongly return -2 rather than -1.
I may eventually go back and remove all references to SA and SB,
replacing them with the values; this would make the code more
transparent, I think. the original motivation for using macros was to
allow misguided users of the code to redefine them for the purpose of
enlarging the set of accepted sequences past the end of Unicode...

| Rich Felker | 2013-04-04 | 1 | -10/+0 |
| * | minor optimization to mbstowcs•••there is no need to zero-fill an mbstate_t object in the caller;
mbsrtowcs will automatically treat a null pointer as the initial
state.
| Rich Felker | 2013-04-04 | 1 | -2/+1 |
| * | fix incorrect range checks in wcsrtombs•••negative values of wchar_t need to be treated in the non-ASCII case so
that they can properly generate EILSEQ rather than getting truncated
to 8bit values and stored in the output.
| Rich Felker | 2013-04-04 | 1 | -3/+3 |
| * | overhaul mbsrtowcs•••these changes fix at least two bugs:
- misaligned access to the input as uint32_t for vectorized ASCII test
- incorrect src pointer after stopping on EILSEQ
in addition, the text of the standard makes it unclear whether the
mbstate_t object is to be modified when the destination pointer is
null; previously it was cleared either way; now, it's only cleared
when the destination is non-null. this change may need revisiting, but
it should not affect most applications, since calling mbsrtowcs with
non-zero state can only happen when the head of the string was already
processed with mbrtowc.
finally, these changes shave about 20% size off the function and seem
to improve performance by 1-5%.
| Rich Felker | 2013-04-04 | 1 | -69/+64 |
| * | use restrict everywhere it's required by c99 and/or posix 2008•••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.

| Rich Felker | 2012-05-26 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | fix longstanding exit logic bugs in mbsnrtowcs and wcsnrtombs•••these are POSIX 2008 (previously GNU extension) functions that are
rarely used. apparently they had never been tested before, since the
end-of-string logic was completely missing. mbsnrtowcs is used by
modern versions of bash for its glob implementation, and and this bug
was causing tab completion to hang in an infinite loop.

| * | new attempt at working around the gcc 3 visibility bug•••since gcc is failing to generate the necessary ".hidden" directive in
the output asm, generate it explicitly with an __asm__ statement...
| Rich Felker | 2012-02-24 | 1 | -0/+4 |
| * | remove useless attribute visibility from definitions•••this was a failed attempt at working around the gcc 3 visibility bug
affecting x86_64. subsequent patch will address it with an ugly but
working hack.
| Rich Felker | 2012-02-24 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | cleanup and work around visibility bug in gcc 3 that affects x86_64•••in gcc 3, the visibility attribute must be placed on both the
declaration and on the definition. if it's omitted from the
definition, the compiler fails to emit the ".hidden" directive in the
assembly, and the linker will either generate textrels (if supported,
such as on i386) or refuse to link (on targets where certain types of
textrels are forbidden or impossible without further assumptions about
memory layout, such as on x86_64).
this patch also unifies the decision about when to use visibility into
libc.h and makes the visibility in the utf-8 state machine tables
based on libc.h rather than a duplicate test.
| Rich Felker | 2012-02-23 | 2 | -6/+4 |
| * | fix all implicit conversion between signed/unsigned pointers•••sadly the C language does not specify any such implicit conversion, so
this is not a matter of just fixing warnings (as gcc treats it) but
actual errors. i would like to revisit a number of these changes and
possibly revise the types used to reduce the number of casts required.
| Rich Felker | 2011-03-25 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | cleanup utf-8 multibyte code, use visibility if possible•••this code was written independently of musl, with support for a the
backwards, nonstandard "31-bit unicode" some libraries/apps might
want. unfortunately the extra code (inside #ifdef) makes the source
harder to read and makes code that should be simple look complex, so
i'm removing it. anyone who wants to use the old code can find it in
the history or from elsewhere.
also, change the visibility of the __fsmu8 state machine table to
hidden, if supported. this should improve performance slightly in
shared-library builds.
