The current code will go into an infinite loop if the printf generated
string is >= 1000, AND exactly 1 character smaller than the amount of free
space in the buffer. When this happens, we are dropped into the loop body,
but nothing will actually change, because count == (buf->size - buf->use - 1),
and virBufferGrow returns unchanged if count < (buf->size - buf->use)
Fix this by removing the '- 1' bit from 'size'. The *nprintf functions handle
the NULL byte for us anyways, so we shouldn't need to manually accommodate
for it.
Here's a bug where we are actually hitting this issue:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=602772
v2: Eric's improvements: while -> if (), remove extra va_list variable,
make sure we report buffer error if snprintf fails
v3: Add tests/virbuftest which reproduces the infinite loop before this
patch, works correctly after
'./autobuild.sh' with lcov installed discovered that our
coverage support has been bit-rotting for a while. This
restores it back to a successful state, although I have
not yet spent any time looking through the resulting files to
look for low-hanging fruit in the unit test coverage front.
* configure.ac: Clear COMPILER_FLAGS at right place.
* Makefile.am (cov): Newer genhtml no longer likes plain -s.
* m4/compiler-flags.m4 (gl_COMPILER_FLAGS): Don't AC_SUBST
COMPILER_FLAGS; it is a shell variable for use in configure only.
* src/Makefile.am (AM_CFLAGS, AM_LDFLAGS): New variables, to make
it easier to provide global flag additions. Use throughout, to
uniformly apply coverage flags.
* .gitignore: Globally ignore gcov output.
* daemon/.gitignore: Simplify.
* src/.gitignore: Likewise.
* tests/.gitignore: Likewise.
* tests/.gitignore: ignore new test binaries
* tests/Makefile.am: add new tests
* tests/esxutilstest.c: test esxVMX_IndexToDiskName()
* tests/vmx2xmldata/*: config files for the VMX to domain XML test
* tests/vmx2xmltest.c: test the VMX to domain XML mapping
* tests/xml2vmxdata/*: config files for the domain XML to VMX test
* tests/xml2vmxtest.c: test the domain XML to VMX mapping
* tests/interfaceschematest: test all XML data against the interface
schemas
* tests/interfacexml2xmltest.c: parse and reserialize all XML data
and check the output is identical
* tests/Makefile.am: hook up the tests
* tests/.gitignore: add ignore test
Add a test to check node device XML parsing by first parsing
the XML, then re-formatting as XML and finally comparing the
resulting XML to the original XML.
* Makefile.maint (sync-vcs-ignore-files): New target.
Prompted by a patch from James Morris.
