• functions called by mksh’s grouping memory allocator
• functions called by mksh code itself
the latter may be changed to call the internal grouping allocator,
if a porter so desires (but if this were recommended, the code in
question would already do so, so…)
– possible integer overflows in memory allocation, mostly
‣ multiplication: all are checked now
‣ addition: reviewed them, most were “proven” or guessed to be
“almost” impossible to run over (e.g. when we have a string
whose length is taken it is assumed that the length will be
more than only a few bytes below SIZE_MAX, since code and
stack have to fit); some are checked now (e.g. when one of
the summands is an off_t); most of the unchecked ones are
annotated now
⇒ cost (MirBSD/i386 static): +76 .text
⇒ cost (Debian sid/i386): +779 .text -4 .data
– on Linux targets, setuid() setresuid() setresgid() can fail
with EAGAIN; check for that and, if so, warn once and retry
infinitely (other targets to be added later once we know that
they are “insane”)
⇒ cost (Debian sid/i386): +192 .text (includes .rodata)
• setmode.c: Do overflow checking for realloc() too; switch back
from calloc() to a checked malloc() for simplification while there
• define -DIN_MKSH and let setmode.c look a tad nicer while here
fix the regression test’s results while here, which have been
broken since cid 10049D9BE5254CE65B8
• get rid of separate copyright file which was intended for De-
bian; track down commits in all files of oksh-mirbsd and mksh
to get correct copyright years per-file, as is BSD custom
of sanitising; since this is supposed to be the lightweight allocator,
with the guarding allocator coming back in later, remove it
reduces memory consumption below what espie's allocator used ☺
similarily simple one from scratch, which however performs
better than espie's with AFREE_DEBUG enabled which took away
the benefit of the double-linked-list approach
all of (core) mksh is now MirOS licenced
