This macro will read a pointer of any type, return it, and set the
pointer to NULL. This is useful as an explicit concept of passing
ownership of a memory area between pointers.
This takes inspiration from Rust:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html#method.take
and was suggested by Alan Jenkins (@sourcejedi).
It drops ~160 lines of code from our codebase, which makes me like it.
Also, I think it clarifies passing of ownership, and thus helps
readability a bit (at least for the initiated who know the new macro)
Throughout the tree there's spurious use of spaces separating ++ and --
operators from their respective operands. Make ++ and -- operator
consistent with the majority of existing uses; discard the spaces.
ISO/IEC 9899:1999 §7.21.1/2 says:
Where an argument declared as size_t n specifies the length of the array
for a function, n can have the value zero on a call to that
function. Unless explicitly stated otherwise in the description of a
particular function in this subclause, pointer arguments on such a call
shall still have valid values, as described in 7.1.4.
In base64_append_width memcpy was called as memcpy(x, NULL, 0). GCC 4.9
started making use of this and assumes This worked fine under -O0, but
does something strange under -O3.
This patch fixes a bug in base64_append_width(), fixes a possible bug in
journal_file_append_entry_internal(), and makes use of the new function
to simplify the code in other places.
libsystemd-network provides the public function
sd_dhcp_client_set_request_option() to enable the request of a given
DHCP option. However the enum defining such options is defined in the
internal header dhcp-protocol.h. Move the enum definition to the
public header sd-dhcp-client.h and properly namespace values.
If a client sends a DECLINE or a server sends a NAK, they can include
a string with a message to explain the error. Parse this and print it
at debug level.
Similar to the previous patch, exchange a length and a pointer with only one offset variable.
Also fix the type of the options to be uint8_t[], rather than uint8_t*.
Store a pointer to the options in the DHCPMessage struct, and pass
this together with an offset around, rather than a uint8_t**.
This avoids us having to (re)compute the pointer; and changes
dhcp_option_append from adjusting both the pointer to the next
option and the remaining size of the options, to just adjusting
the current offset.
This makes the code a bit simpler to follow IMHO, but there should
be no functional change.
Also move the checking of it to the main message handler, rather than the
options parser.
Fix a bug, so we now drop the packet if any of the magic bytes don't match.
Before we used to only drop the packet if they were all wrong.
