Issue #8571: Fix an internal error when compressing or decompressing a

objects.

platforms with a 64-bit long.
The Alpha/Tru64 test problem is a problem in either tarfile or test_tarfile,
not zlib.
crc32 and adler32 return 32-bit values. by using a long thats larger than
32-bits in these functions they were prevented from wrapping around to their
signed 32-bit value that we want them to return in python 2.x.
which made the return value signed. On the Alpha that also lost data
since sizeof(int) != sizeof(long) and apparently adler32/crc32 return
64 bits of data. This change keeps the signedness and continues to store the
data in a long rather than an int as was the case before r61449.
regardless of the native sizeof(long) used in the integer object.
This somewhat odd behavior of returning a signed is maintained in 2.x for
compatibility reasons of always returning an integer rather than a long object.
Fixes Issue1202 for Python 2.6
extension implemented flush() was fixed. Scott also rewrite the
zlib test suite using the unittest module. (SF bug #640230 and
patch #678531.)
Backport candidate I think.
The staticforward define was needed to support certain broken C
compilers (notably SCO ODT 3.0, perhaps early AIX as well) botched the
static keyword when it was used with a forward declaration of a static
initialized structure. Standard C allows the forward declaration with
static, and we've decided to stop catering to broken C compilers. (In
fact, we expect that the compilers are all fixed eight years later.)
I'm leaving staticforward and statichere defined in object.h as
static. This is only for backwards compatibility with C extensions
that might still use it.
XXX I haven't updated the documentation.
don't understand how this function works, also beefed up the docs. The
most common usage error is of this form (often spread out across gotos):
if (_PyString_Resize(&s, n) < 0) {
Py_DECREF(s);
s = NULL;
goto outtahere;
}
The error is that if _PyString_Resize runs out of memory, it automatically
decrefs the input string object s (which also deallocates it, since its
refcount must be 1 upon entry), and sets s to NULL. So if the "if"
branch ever triggers, it's an error to call Py_DECREF(s): s is already
NULL! A correct way to write the above is the simpler (and intended)
if (_PyString_Resize(&s, n) < 0)
goto outtahere;
Bugfix candidate.
type.__module__ behavior.
This adds the module name and a dot in front of the type name in every
type object initializer, except for built-in types (and those that
already had this). Note that it touches lots of Mac modules -- I have
no way to test these but the changes look right. Apologies if they're
not. This also touches the weakref docs, which contains a sample type
object initializer. It also touches the mmap test output, because the
mmap type's repr is included in that output. It touches object.h to
put the correct description in a comment.
Apparently this patch (rev 2.41) replaced all the good old "s#"
formats in PyArg_ParseTuple() with "S". Then it did
PyString_FromStringAndSize() to get back the values setup by the
"s#" format. It also incref'd and decref'd the string obtained by
"S" even though the argument tuple had a reference to it.
Replace PyString_AsString() calls with PyString_AS_STRING().
A good rule of thumb -- if you never check the return value of
PyString_AsString() to see if it's NULL, you ought to be using the
macro <wink>.
Many functions used a local variable called return_error, which was
initialized to zero. If an error occurred, it was set to true. Most
of the code paths checked were only executed if return_error was
false. goto is clearer.
The code also seemed to be written under the curious assumption that
calling Py_DECREF() on a local variable would assign the variable to
NULL. As a result, more of the error-exit code paths returned an
object that had a reference count of zero instead of just returning
NULL. Fixed the code to explicitly assign NULL after the DECREF.
A bit more reformatting, but not much.
XXX Need a much better test suite for zlib, since it the current tests
don't exercise any of this broken code.
Mostly by Toby Dickenson and Titus Brown.
Add an optional argument to a decompression object's decompress()
method. The argument specifies the maximum length of the return
value. If the uncompressed data exceeds this length, the excess data
is stored as the unconsumed_tail attribute. (Not to be confused with
unused_data, which is a separate issue.)
Difference from SF patch: Default value for unconsumed_tail is ""
rather than None. It's simpler if the attribute is always a string.
* fixes the zlib decompress sync flush bug as reported in bug #124981
* avoids repeat calls to (in|de)flateEnd when destroying (de)compression
objects
* raises exception when allocating unused_data fails
* fixes memory leak when allocating unused_data fails
* raises exception when allocating decompress data fails
* removes vestigial code from decompress flush now that decompression
returns all available data
* tidies code so object compress/decompress/flush routines are consistent
