commit 844212d94f582c4e3c5055e0a1524931e89ebe76, which did not make it
into any releases, changed nl_langinfo(CODESET) to always return
"UTF-8", even in the byte-based C locale. this was problematic because
application software was found to use the string match for "UTF-8" to
activate its own UTF-8 processing. this both undermines the byte-based
functionality of the C locale, and if mixed with with calls to the
standard multibyte functions, which happened in practice, could result
in severe mis-handling of input.
the motive for the previous change was that, to avoid widespread
compatibility problems, the string returned by nl_langinfo(CODESET)
needs to be accepted by iconv and by third-party character conversion
code. thus, the only remaining choice is "ASCII". this choice
accurately represents the intent that high bytes do not have
individual meaning in the C locale, but it does mean that iconv, when
passed nl_langinfo(CODESET) in the C locale, will produce errors in
cases where mbrtowc would have succeeded. for reference, glibc behaves
similarly in this regard, so I don't think it will be a problem.

this restores the original behavior prior to the addition of the
byte-based C locale and fixes what is effectively a regression in
musl's property of always providing working UTF-8 support.
commit 1507ebf837334e9e07cfab1ca1c2e88449069a80 introduced the codeset
name "UTF-8-CODE-UNITS" for the byte-based C locale to represent that
the semantic content is UTF-8 but that it is being processed as code
units (bytes) rather than whole multibyte characters. however, many
programs assume that the codeset name is usable with iconv and/or
comes from a set of standard/widely-used names known to the
application. such programs are likely to produce warnings or errors,
run with reduced functionality, or mangle character data when run
explicitly in the C locale.
the standard places basically no requirements for the string returned
by nl_langinfo(CODESET) and how it interacts with other interfaces, so
returning "UTF-8" is permissible. moreover, it seems like the right
thing to do, since the identity of the character encoding as "UTF-8"
is independent of whether it is being processed as bytes of characters
by the standard library functions.

this patch adjusts libc components which use the multibyte functions
internally, and which depend on them operating in a particular
encoding, to make the appropriate locale changes before calling them
and restore the calling thread's locale afterwards. activating the
byte-based C locale without these changes would cause regressions in
stdio and iconv.
in the case of iconv, the current implementation was simply using the
multibyte functions as UTF-8 conversions. setting a multibyte UTF-8
locale for the duration of the iconv operation allows the code to
continue working.
in the case of stdio, POSIX requires that FILE streams have an
encoding rule bound at the time of setting wide orientation. as long
as all locales, including the C locale, used the same encoding,
treating high bytes as UTF-8, there was no need to store an encoding
rule as part of the stream's state.
a new locale field in the FILE structure points to the locale that
should be made active during fgetwc/fputwc/ungetwc on the stream. it
cannot point to the locale active at the time the stream becomes
oriented, because this locale could be mutable (the global locale) or
could be destroyed (locale_t objects produced by newlocale) before the
stream is closed. instead, a pointer to the static C or C.UTF-8 locale
object added in commit commit aeeac9ca5490d7d90fe061ab72da446c01ddf746
is used. this is valid since categories other than LC_CTYPE will not
affect these functions.

this patch makes the functions which work directly on multibyte
characters treat the high bytes as individual abstract code units
rather than as multibyte sequences when MB_CUR_MAX is 1. since
MB_CUR_MAX is presently defined as a constant 4, all of the new code
added is dead code, and optimizing compilers' code generation should
not be affected at all. a future commit will activate the new code.
as abstract code units, bytes 0x80 to 0xff are represented by wchar_t
values 0xdf80 to 0xdfff, at the end of the surrogates range. this
ensures that they will never be misinterpreted as Unicode characters,
and that all wctype functions return false for these "characters"
without needing locale-specific logic. a high range outside of Unicode
such as 0x7fffff80 to 0x7fffffff was also considered, but since C11's
char16_t also needs to be able to represent conversions of these
bytes, the surrogate range was the natural choice.

commit 68630b55c0c7219fe9df70dc28ffbf9efc8021d8 made the new locale to
be assigned unconditonally resulting in crashes later on.

|
|

this frees applications which need to make temporary use of the C
locale (via uselocale) from the possibility that newlocale might fail.
the C.UTF-8 locale is also provided as a static locale. presently they
behave the same, but this may change in the future.

previously, LC_MESSAGES was treated specially as the only category
which could be set to a locale name without a definition file, in
order to facilitate gettext message translations when no libc locale
was available. LC_NUMERIC was completely un-settable, and LC_CTYPE
stored a flag intended to be used for a possible future byte-based C
locale, instead of storing a __locale_map pointer like the other
categories use.
this patch changes all categories to be represented by pointers to
__locale_map structures, and allows locale names without definition
files to be treated as valid locales with trivial definition when used
in any category. outwardly visible functional changes should be minor,
limited mainly to the strings read back from setlocale and the way
gettext handles translations in categories other than LC_MESSAGES.
various internal refactoring has also been performed, and improvements
in const correctness have been made.

this is part of a general program of removing direct use of atomics
where they are not necessary to meet correctness or performance needs,
but in this case it's also an optimization. only the global locale
needs synchronization; allocated locales referenced with locale_t
handles are immutable during their lifetimes, and using atomics to
initialize them increases their cost of setup.

while not a requirement, it's common convention in other iconv
implementations to accept "CHAR" as an alias for nl_langinfo(CODESET),
meaning the encoding used for char[] strings in the current locale,
and also "" as an alternate form. supporting this is not costly and
improves compatibility.

if setlocale has not been called, the current locale's messages_name
may be a null pointer. the code path where it's assumed to be non-null
was only reachable if bindtextdomain had already been called, which is
normally not done in programs which do not call setlocale, so the
omitted check went unnoticed.

the code being removed used atomics to track whether any threads might
be using a locale other than the current global locale, and whether
any threads might have abstract 8-bit (non-UTF-8) LC_CTYPE active, a
feature which was never committed (still pending). the motivations
were to support early execution prior to setup of the thread pointer,
to partially support systems (ancient kernels) where thread pointer
setup is not possible, and to avoid high performance cost on archs
where accessing the thread pointer may be very slow.
since commit 19a1fe670acb3ab9ead0fe31859ca7d4fe40dd54, the thread
pointer is always available, so these hacks are no longer needed.
removing them greatly simplifies the affected code.

when the non-stub duplocale code was added as part of the locale
framework in commit 0bc03091bb674ebb9fa6fe69e4aec1da3ac484f2, the old
code to memcpy the old locale object to the new one was left behind.
the conditional for the memcpy no longer makes sense, because the
conditions are now always-true when it's reached, and the memcpy is
wrong because it clobbers the new->messages_name pointer setup just
above.
since the messages_name and ctype_utf8 members have already been
copied, all that remains is the cat[] array. these pointers are
volatile, so using memcpy to copy them is formally wrong; use a for
loop instead.

the memory model we use internally for atomics permits plain loads of
values which may be subject to concurrent modification without
requiring that a special load function be used. since a compiler is
free to make transformations that alter the number of loads or the way
in which loads are performed, the compiler is theoretically free to
break this usage. the most obvious concern is with atomic cas
constructs: something of the form tmp=*p;a_cas(p,tmp,f(tmp)); could be
transformed to a_cas(p,*p,f(*p)); where the latter is intended to show
multiple loads of *p whose resulting values might fail to be equal;
this would break the atomicity of the whole operation. but even more
fundamental breakage is possible.
with the changes being made now, objects that may be modified by
atomics are modeled as volatile, and the atomic operations performed
on them by other threads are modeled as asynchronous stores by
hardware which happens to be acting on the request of another thread.
such modeling of course does not itself address memory synchronization
between cores/cpus, but that aspect was already handled. this all
seems less than ideal, but it's the best we can do without mandating a
C11 compiler and using the C11 model for atomics.
in the case of pthread_once_t, the ABI type of the underlying object
is not volatile-qualified. so we are assuming that accessing the
object through a volatile-qualified lvalue via casts yields volatile
access semantics. the language of the C standard is somewhat unclear
on this matter, but this is an assumption the linux kernel also makes,
and seems to be the correct interpretation of the standard.

the code which loads locale files was already rejecting locale names
containing slashes. however, LC_MESSAGES records a locale name even if
libc does not have a matching locale file, so that gettext or
application code can use the recorded locale name for message
translations to languages that libc does not support. this recorded
name was not being checked for slashes, meaning that such code could
potentially be tricked into directory traversal.
in addition, since the value of a locale category is sometimes used as
a pathname component by callers, the improved code rejects any value
beginning with a dot. this prevents traversal to the parent directory
via "..", use of the top-level locale directory via ".", and also
avoids "hidden" directories as a side effect.
finally, overly long locale names are now rejected (treated as an
unrecognized name and thus as an alias for C.UTF-8) rather than being
truncated.

while the __mo_lookup backend can verify that the translated message
ends with a null terminator, is has no way to know nplurals and thus
no way to verify that sufficiently many null terminators are present
in the string to satisfy all plural forms. the code in dcngettext was
already attempting to avoid reading past the end of the mo file
mapping, but failed to do so because the strlen call itself could
over-read. using strnlen instead allows us to avoid the problem.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
rather than just checking that the start of the string lies within the
mapping, also check that the nominal length remains within the
mapping, and that the null terminator is present at the nominal
length. this ensures that the caller, using the result as a C string,
will not read past the end of the mapping.
the nominal length is never exposed to the caller, but it's useful
internally to find where the null terminator should be without having
to restort to linear search via strnlen/memchr.

this commit replaces the stub implementations with working message
translation functions. translation units are factored so as to prevent
pulling in the legacy, non-library-safe functions which use a global
textdomain in modern code which is using the versions with an explicit
domain argument. bind_textdomain_codeset is also placed in its own
file since it should not be needed by most programs.
this implementation is still missing some features: the LANGUAGE
environment variable (for multiple fallback languages) is not honored,
and non-default plural-form rules are not supported. these issues will
be addressed in a later commit.
one notable difference from the GNU implementation is that there is no
default path for loading translation files. in principle one could be
added, but since the documented correct usage is to call the
bindtextdomain function, a default path is probably unnecessary.

for LC_MESSAGES, translation of strerror and similar literal message
functions is supported. for messages in other places (particularly the
dynamic linker) that use format strings, translation is not yet
supported. in order to make it possible and safe, such messages will
need to be refactored to separate the textual content from the format.
for LC_TIME, the day and month names and strftime-style format strings
provided by nl_langinfo are supported for translation. however there
may be limitations, as some of the original C-locale nl_langinfo
strings are non-unique and thus perhaps non-suitable as keys.
overall, the locale support activated by this commit should not be
seen as complete and polished but as a basis for beginning to test
locale functionality and implement locales.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
these were removed from the standard but still offered as an extension
in langinfo.h, so nl_langinfo should support them.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
due to a skipped slot and missing null terminator, the last few
strings were off by one or two slots from their item codes.

the core is based on a binary search; hash table is not used. both
native and reverse-endian mo files are supported. all offsets read
from the mapped mo file are checked against the mapping size to
prevent the possibility of reads outside the mapping.
this commit has no observable effects since there are not yet any
callers to the message translation code.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
there is still no code which actually uses the loaded locale files, so
the main observable effect of this commit is that calls to setlocale
store and give back the names of the selected locales for the
remaining categories (LC_TIME, LC_COLLATE, LC_MONETARY) if a locale
file by the requested name could be loaded.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
per POSIX (XBD 8.2) LC_*/LANG environment variables set to to the
empty string are supposed to be treated as if they were not set at
all.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
this change is presently non-functional since the callees do not yet
use their locale argument for anything.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
this is mainly done for consistency with the ctype functions and to
declutter the src/locale directory.

the main practical purposes of this commit are to remove a huge amount
of clutter from the src/locale directory, to cut down on the length of
the $(AR) and $(LD) command lines, and to reduce the amount of space
wasted by object file headers in the static libc.a. build time may
also be reduced, though this has not been measured.
as an additional justification, if there ever were a need for the
behavior of these functions to vary by locale, it would be necessary
for the non-_l versions to call the _l versions, so that linking the
former without the latter would not be possible anyway.

this commit adds non-stub implementations of setlocale, duplocale,
newlocale, and uselocale, along with the data structures and minimal
code needed for representing the active locale on a per-thread basis
and optimizing the common case where thread-local locale settings are
not in use.
at this point, the data structures only contain what is necessary to
represent LC_CTYPE (a single flag) and LC_MESSAGES (a name for use in
finding message translation files). representation for the other
categories will be added later; the expectation is that a single
pointer will suffice for each.
for LC_CTYPE, the strings "C" and "POSIX" are treated as special; any
other string is accepted and treated as "C.UTF-8". for other
categories, any string is accepted after being truncated to a maximum
supported length (currently 15 bytes). for LC_MESSAGES, the name is
kept regardless of whether libc itself can use such a message
translation locale, since applications using catgets or gettext should
be able to use message locales libc is not aware of. for other
categories, names which are not successfully loaded as locales (which,
at present, means all names) are treated as aliases for "C". setlocale
never fails.
locale settings are not yet used anywhere, so this commit should have
no visible effects except for the contents of the string returned by
setlocale.

prior to version 1.1.0, the difference between pthread_self (the
public function) and __pthread_self (the internal macro or inline
function) was that the former would lazily initialize the thread
pointer if it was not already initialized, whereas the latter would
crash in this case. since lazy initialization is no longer supported,
use of pthread_self no longer makes sense; it simply generates larger,
slower code.

perhaps some additional legacy DOS-era codepages would also be useful
to have, but these are the ones for which there has been demand. the
size of the diff is due to the fact that legacychars.h is updated in
such a way that new characters are inserted into the table in unicode
codepoint order; thus other mappings in codepages.h have changed to
reflect the new table indices of their characters.

with these changes, the character set implemented as "big5" in musl is
a pure superset of cp950, the canonical "big5", and agrees with the
normative parts of Unicode. this means it has minor differences from
both hkscs and big5-2003:
- the range A2CC-A2CE maps to CJK ideographs rather than numerals,
contrary to changes made in big5-2003.
- C6CD maps to a CJK ideograph rather than its corresponding Kangxi
radical character, contrary to changes made in hkscs.
- F9FE maps to U+2593 rather than U+FFED.
of these differences, none but the last are visually distinct, and the
last is a character used purely for text-based graphics, not to convey
linguistic content.
should there be future demand for strict conformance to big5-2003 or
hkscs mappings, the present charset aliases can be replaced with
distinct variants.
reportedly there are other non-standard big5 extensions in common use
in Taiwan and perhaps elsewhere, which could also be added as layers
on top of the existing big5 support.
there may be additional characters which should be added to the hkscs
table: the whatwg standard for big5 defines what appears to be a
superset of hkscs.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
at this point, it is just the common base charset equivalent to
Windows CP 950, with no further extensions. HKSCS and possibly other
supersets will be added later. other aliases may need to be added too.

like for other character sets, stateful iso-2022 form is not supported
yet but everything else should work. all charset aliases are treated
the same, as Windows codepage 949, because reportedly the EUC-KR
charset name is in widespread (mis?)usage in email and on the web for
data which actually uses the extended characters outside the standard
93x94 grid. this could easily be changed if desired.
the principle of this converter for handling the giant bulk of rare
Hangul syllables outside of the standard KS X 1001 93x94 grid is the
same as the GB18030 converter's treatment of non-explicitly-coded
Unicode codepoints: sequences in the extension range are mapped to an
integer index N, and the converter explicitly computes the Nth Hangul
syllable not explicitly encoded in the character map. empirically,
this requires at most 7 passes over the grid. this approach reduces
the table size required for Korean legacy encodings from roughly 44k
to 17k and should have minimal performance impact on real-world text
conversions since the "slow" characters are rare. where it does have
impact, the cost is merely a large constant time factor.

LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE refers to the global locale, controlled by setlocale,
not the thread-local locale in effect which these functions should be
using. neither LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE nor 0 has an argument to the *_l
functions has behavior defined by the standard, but 0 is a more
logical choice for requesting the callee to lookup the current locale.
in the future I may move the current locale lookup the the caller (the
non-_l-suffixed wrapper).
at this point, all of the locale logic is dummied out, so no harm was
done, but it should at least avoid misleading usage.
