Fred Drake 947121fd9c Add a comment about needing to change a #include if using a version of
Berkeley DB 2.0 or newer; most Linux distros will include a more recent

Fred Drake a04eaad5c7 Trent Mick <trentm@activestate.com>:
This patch fixes possible overflows in the socket module for 64-bit
platforms (mainly Win64). The changes are:

- abstract the socket type to SOCKET_T (this is SOCKET on Windows, int
on Un*x), this is necessary because sizeof(SOCKET) > sizeof(int) on
Win64

- use INVALID_SOCKET on Win32/64 for an error return value for
accept()

- ensure no overflow of the socket variable for: (1) a PyObject return
value (use PyLong_FromLongLong if necessary); and (2) printf
formatting in repr().

Closes SourceForge patch #100516.

Guido van Rossum f385c5e544 Patch by Nadav Horesh to make acosh and asinh better.
Tim posted a long comment to python-dev (subject: "Controversial patch
(cmath)"; date: 6/29/00).  The conclusion is that this whole module
stinks and this patch isn't perfect, but it's better than the acosh
and asinh we had, so let's check it in.

Fredrik Lundh 29c08beab0 still trying to figure out how to fix the remaining
group reset problem.  in the meantime, I added some
optimizations:

- added "inline" directive to LOCAL

  (this assumes that AC_C_INLINE does what it's
  supposed to do).  to compile SRE on a non-unix
  platform that doesn't support inline, you have
  to add a "#define inline" somewhere...

- added code to generate a SRE_OP_INFO primitive

- added code to do fast prefix search

  (enabled by the USE_FAST_SEARCH define; default
  is on, in this release)

Fred Drake 0e12395190 Trent Mick <trentm@activestate.com>:
This patch fixes a possible overflow in the Sleep system call on
Win32/64 in the time_sleep() function in the time module. For very
large values of the give time to sleep the number of milliseconds can
overflow and give unexpected sleep intervals. THis patch raises an
OverflowError if the value overflows.

Closes SourceForge patch #100514.

Fred Drake 699f352fb2 Trent Mick <trentm@activestate.com>:
This patch fixes the posix module for large file support mainly on
Win64, although some general cleanup is done as well.

The changes are:

- abstract stat->STAT, fstat->FSTAT, and struct stat->STRUCT_STAT
This is because stat() etc. are not the correct functions to use on
Win64 (nor maybe on other platforms?, if not then it is now trivial to
select the appropriate one). On Win64 the appropriate system functions
are _stati64(), etc.

- add _pystat_fromstructstat(), it builds the return tuple for the
fstat system call. This functionality was being duplicated. As well
the construction of the tuple was modified to ensure no overflow of
the time_t elements (sizeof(time_t) > sizeof(long) on Win64).

- add overflow protection for the return values of posix_spawnv and
posix_spawnve

- use the proper 64-bit capable lseek() on Win64

- use intptr_t instead of long where appropriate from Win32/64 blocks
(sizeof(void*) > sizeof(long) on Win64)

This closes SourceForge patch #100513.

Mark Hammond provided (a long time ago) a better Win32 specific
time_clock implementation in timemodule.c. The library for this
implementation does not exist on Win64 (yet, at least). This patch
makes Win64 fall back on the system's clock() function for
time_clock().

This closes SourceForge patch #100512.

  the memory ;-)

Guido van Rossum cc6a438d7f Trent Mick:
Fix warnings on 64-bit build build of signalmodule.c

- Though I know that SIG_DFL and SIG_IGN are just small constants,
there are cast to function pointers so the appropriate Python call is
PyLong_FromVoidPtr so that the pointer value cannot overflow on Win64
where sizeof(long) < sizeof(void*).

Guido van Rossum 534b7c5c96 Trent Mick:
This patch fixes cPickle.c for 64-bit platforms.

- The false assumption sizeof(long) == size(void*) exists where
PyInt_FromLong is used to represent a pointer. The safe Python call
for this is PyLong_FromVoidPtr. (On platforms where the above
assumption *is* true a PyInt is returned as before so there is no
effective change.)

- use size_t instead of int for some variables

Guido van Rossum 3262e16753 Trent Mick:
This patches fixes a possible overflow of the optional timeout
parameter for the select() function (selectmodule.c). This timeout is
passed in as a double and then truncated to an int. If the double is
sufficiently large you can get unexpected results as it
overflows. This patch raises an overflow if the given select timeout
overflows.

[GvR: To my embarrassment, the original code was assuming an int could
always hold a million.  Note that the overflow check doesn't test for
a very large *negative* timeout passed in -- but who in the world
would do such a thing?]

Guido van Rossum 40ced50cb0 Jack Jansen: Mac Carbon: don't include sys/types if we don't have it 2000-06-28 20:56:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 541dc3b7b2 Trent Mick <trentm@activestate.com>:
The cause: Relatively recent (last month) patches to getargs.c added
overflow checking to the PyArg_Parse*() integral formatters thereby
restricting 'b' to unsigned char value and 'h','i', and 'l' to signed
integral values (i.e. if the incoming value is outside of the
specified bounds you get an OverflowError, previous it silently
overflowed).

The problem: This broke the array module (as Fredrik pointed out)
because *its* formatters relied on the loose allowance of signed and
unsigned ranges being able to pass through PyArg_Parse*()'s
formatters.

The fix: This patch fixes the array module to work with the more
strict bounds checking now in PyArg_Parse*().

How: If the type signature of a formatter in the arraymodule exactly
matches one in PyArg_Parse*(), then use that directly. If there is no
equivalent type signature in PyArg_Parse*() (e.g. there is no unsigned
int formatter in PyArg_Parse*()), then use the next one up and do some
extra bounds checking in the array module.

This partially closes SourceForge patch #100506.

Fred Drake 8cef4cf737 Thomas Wouters <thomas@xs4all.net>:
This patch adds the openpty() and forkpty() library calls to posixmodule.c,
when they are available on the target
system. (glibc-2.1-based Linux systems, FreeBSD and BSDI at least, probably
the other BSD-based systems as well.)

Lib/pty.py is also rewritten to use openpty when available, but falls
back to the old SGI method or the "manual" BSD open-a-pty
code. Openpty() is necessary to use the Unix98 ptys under Linux 2.2,
or when using non-standard tty names under (at least) BSDI, which is
why I needed it, myself ;-) forkpty() is included for symmetry.

Jeremy Hylton 847a9968e9 Patch from M.-A. Lemburg:
Python on UNIX now trusts PYTHONHOME unconditionally

Modules/getpath.c:

Landmark changed to os.py.

Setting PYTHONHOME now unconditionally sets sys.prefix
(and sys.exec_prefix). No further checks are done whether the
standard lib can be found in that location or not. This is in
sync with the PC subdir getpath implementations.

PC/getpathp.c:

Landmark changed to os.py.

PC/os2vacpp/getpathp.c:

Landmark changed to os.py.

Note: BAW's checkin on exceptions.c eliminates earlier concerns about
a bogus PYTHONHOME value leading to a core dump.  Instead it causes a
useless sys.path and prevents imports.

Guido van Rossum ea2b7157ab New version from Jim Fulton to fix a problem that Eric Raymond ran
into.  Jim writes:

The core dump was due to a C decrement operation
in a macro invocation in load_pop.  (BAD)

I fixed this by moving the decrement outside
the macro call.

I added a comment to load_pop and load_mark
to document the fact that cPickle separates the
unpickling stack into two separate stacks, one for
objects and one for marks.

I also moved some increments out of some macro
calls (PyTuple_SET_ITEM and PyList_SET_ITEM).
This wasn't necessary, but made me feel better. :)

I tested these changes in *my* cPickle, which
doesn't have the new Unicode stuff.

Guido van Rossum c554505ca1 Trent Mick:
Fix overflow bug in ldexp(x, exp). The 'exp' argument maps to a C int for the
math library call [double ldexp(double, int)], however the 'd'
PyArg_ParseTuple formatter was used to yield a double, which was subsequently
cast to an int. This could overflow.

[GvR: mysteriously, on Solaris 2.7, ldexp(1, 2147483647) returns Inf
while ldexp(1, 2147483646) raises OverflowError; this seems a bug in
the math library (it also takes a real long time to compute the
Inf outcome).  Does this point to a bug in the CHECK() macro?  It
should have discovered that the result was outside the HUGE_VAL range.]
2000-05-08 14:29:38 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 69529ad0cc When the UTF-8 conversion to Unicode fails, return an 8-bit string
instead.  This seems more robust than returning an Unicode string with
some unconverted charcters in it.

This still doesn't support getting truly binary data out of Tcl, since
we look for the trailing null byte; but the old (pre-Unicode) code did
this too, so apparently there's no need.  (Plus, I really don't feel
like finding out how Tcl deals with this in each version.)
2000-05-04 15:55:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 990f5c6c98 Two changes to improve (I hope) Unicode support.
1. In Tcl 8.2 and later, use Tcl_NewUnicodeObj() when passing a Python
Unicode object rather than going through UTF-8.  (This function
doesn't exist in Tcl 8.1, so there the original UTF-8 code is still
used; in Tcl 8.0 there is no support for Unicode.)  This assumes that
Tcl_UniChar is the same thing as Py_UNICODE; a run-time error is
issued if this is not the case.

2. In Tcl 8.1 and later (i.e., whenever Tcl supports Unicode), when a
string returned from Tcl contains bytes with the top bit set, we
assume it is encoded in UTF-8, and decode it into a Unicode string
object.

Notes:

- Passing Unicode strings to Tcl 8.0 does not do the right thing; this
isn't worth fixing.

- When passing an 8-bit string to Tcl 8.1 or later that has bytes with
the top bit set, Tcl tries to interpret it as UTF-8; it seems to fall
back on Latin-1 for non-UTF-8 bytes.  I'm not sure what to do about
this besides telling the user to disambiguate such strings by
converting them to Unicode (forcing the user to be explicit about the
encoding).

- Obviously it won't be possible to get binary data out of Tk this
way.  Do we need that ability?  How to do it?

Guido van Rossum 19dde103a8 Mark Hammond to the rescue:
Checkin 2.131 of posixmodule.c changed os.stat on Windows, so that
"/bin/" type notation (trailing backslash) would work on Windows to
be consistent with Unix.

However, the patch broke the simple case of: os.stat("\\")

This did work in 1.5.2, and obviously should!

This patch addresses this, and restores the correct behaviour.

Guido van Rossum ff3ab42c04 Jack Jansen: The GUSI 2.0 I/O library used on the Mac uses the
socklen_t (unsigned int) for most size parameters.  Apparently this is
part of the UNIX 98 standard.

[GvR: the changes to configure.in etc. that I just checked in make
sure that socklen_t is defined everywhere, so I deleted the little
part of Jack's mod to define socklen_t if not in GUSI2.  I suppose I
will have to add it to the Windows config.h in a minute.]

backslash from the pathname argument to stat() on Windows -- while on
Unix, stat("/bin/") succeeds and does the same thing as stat("/bin"),

2000-04-05 14:15:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 56a87a0905 Patch from Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>:
The bug is in mmap_read_line_method(), and its loop that searches for
newlines.  After the loop reaches EOF, eol is incremented and points
after the end of the memory.  This results in readline() method
sometimes picking up and returning a byte after the end of the string.
This is usually a bogus \0, but it could cause SIGSEGV if it's after
the end of the page).

The patch fixes the problem.  Also, it uses memchr() for finding a
character, which is in fact the "strnchr" the comment is asking for.
memchr() is already used in Python sources, so there should be no
portability problems.

for 1, corresponds to an underlying OS error.  This one was changed
to a ValueError (a better error for that condition), and the module
error object is now simply EnvironmentError.  All win32 error

Also included are some minor corrections w/r to the docs of
the new "es" and "es#" parser markers (use PyMem_Free() instead
of free(); thanks to Mark Hammond for finding these).

The unicodedata tests are now in a separate file
(test_unicodedata.py) to avoid problems if the module cannot

Fred Drake d86ed29f44 Added table entries for Irix 6.5 names for confstr()/sysconf()/
pathconf() names, from Sjoerd.

Added code to verify that these tables are properly ordered, only
included and used when CHECK_CONFNAME_TABLES is defined.  This is only
needed to test the tables, so I haven't enabled this by default.

Fred Drake 12c6e2d497 Added support for getlogin(); does *not* use getlogin_r() where
available since the interface is poorly defined on at least one major
platform (Solaris).

Moved table of constant names for fpathconf() & pathconf() into the
conditional that defines the conv_path_confname() helper; Mark Hammond
reported that defining the table when none of the constants were
defined causes the compiler to complain (won't allow 0-length array,
imagine that!).

In posix_fpathconf(), use conv_path_confname() as the O& conversion
function, instead of the conv_confname() helper, which has the wrong
signature (posix_pathconf() already used the right thing).

*Lots* of tables to define names used by *conf*(); explanation to go
in message to python-dev list.

Guido van Rossum 09ac088152 The call to PyArg_ParseTuple in al_Connect had one too few arguments.
This fixes PR#157.

Fred Drake 5ab8eaf0bb Added support for abort(), ctermid(), tmpfile(), tempnam(), tmpnam(),
and TMP_MAX.

Converted all functions that used PyArg_Parse() or PyArg_NoArgs() to
use PyArg_ParseTuple() and specified all function names using the
:name syntax in the format strings, to allow better error messages
when TypeError is raised for parameter type mismatches.

Guido van Rossum b960e7a797 Patches by Kannan Vijayan:
new:
readline.get_begidx() -> int
	gets the beginning index in the command line string
	delimiting the tab-completion scope.  This would
	probably be used from within a tab-completion
	handler

readline.get_endidx() -> int
	gets the ending index in the command line string
	delimiting the tab-completion scope.  This would
	probably be used from within a tab-compeltion
	handler

readline.set_completer_delims(string) -> None
	sets the delimiters used by readline as word breakpoints
	for tab-completion

readline.get_completer_delims() -> string
	gets the delimiters used by readline as word breakpoints
	for tab-completion

fixed:
readline.get_line_buffer() -> string
	doesnt cause a debug message every other call

Guido van Rossum e168c65603 Patch by Dieter Maurer to make things work for Tcl/Tk 8.1. This
simply moves the call to Tk_MainWindow() after the Tcl/Tk
initialization calls.  The patch is unconditional, it works with
earlier and later versions as well.

Guido van Rossum 6b26a06037 Patch by Dieter Maurer to make things work for Tcl/Tk 8.1 (tested with
8.1.1).  His approach doesn't work with Tcl/Tk 8.2, so I've placed it
inside #if TKMAJORMINOR == 8001 and #endif.  See also his patch for
tkappinit.c.

Guido van Rossum 1b6e463bd5 Bugfix by Jack Jansen for Macintosh (for the inet_ntoa/aton changes):

Guido van Rossum 2db4f47fdd Patch by Jason Trowbridge. (Followup to his PR#110.) (Slightly
reformatted.)

- Illegal padding is now ignored.  (Recommendation by GvR.)

- Padding no longer removes characters from data string (resulting in
lost data/strings with negative lengths).

- Illegal characters outside the ASCII range are now ignored, instead
of possibly being remapped to a valid character.

Guido van Rossum 9376b74c42 (1) On Linux, we really need to trust the configure script to select
the right variant of gethostbyname_r for us, since not all Linuxes are
equal in this respect.  Reported by Laurent Pointal.

(2) On BeOS, Chris Herborth reports that instead of arpa/inet.h you
must include net/netdb.h to get the inet_ntoa() and inet_addr()
prototypes.
1999-09-15 22:01:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a2e48552d2 It appears that inet_aton() doesn't really exist except in libresolv;
the proper function to call is inet_addr().  Since we already had code
to do that (for MS-Windows), this simplifies things a lot!
1999-09-09 15:42:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 7a15ba595a Added keyword parameter support to all public interfaces; keyword
names match the documentation.

Removed broken code that supports the __methods__ attribute on ast
objects; the right magic was added to Py_FindMethod() since this was
originally written.  <ast-object>.__methods__ now works, so dir() and
rlcompleter are happy.

Guido van Rossum 6a619f44c5 It turns out that modifying the environment strings is not safe.
Treat them as read-only, and make a copy as appropriately.  This was

Sedlmeyer.  This fix is mine.

Guido van Rossum 2f80d96c04 Patch by Stephen Turner, who writes:
"""
It fixes a memory corruption error resulting from BadPickleGet
exceptions in load_get, load_binget and load_long_binget.  This was
initially reported on c.l.py as a problem with Cookie.py; see the thread
titled "python core dump (SIGBUS) on Solaris" for more details.

If PyDict_GetItem(self->memo, py_key) call failed, then py_key was being
Py_DECREF'd out of existence before call was made to
PyErr_SetObject(BadPickleGet, py_key).

The bug can be duplicated as follows:

import cPickle
cPickle.loads('garyp')

This raises a BadPickleGet exception whose value is a freed object.  A
core dump will soon follow.

Jim Fulton approves of the patch.

Guido van Rossum 9068da4b6d Milton L. Hankin reports that on Windows it is possible to have two
different values in the environ dict with the same key (although he
couldn't explain exactly how this came to be).  Since getenv() uses
the first one, Python should do too. (Some doubts about case
sensitivity, but for now this at least seems the right thing to do
regardless of platform.)
