The client script will exit after the specified number of packages
have been processed. 0 means infinitely.
Useful for example to regularly quit the script, check for updates to
the client and start it again. Or as an alternative to the `--stop-time`
argument.
The function `iteritems()` of `dict`s is deprecated. The recommended
alternative is to use `items()`, this function also works with Python 2.
The next issue is that lambdas can no longer unpack tuple parameters
in Python 3. It would be possible to use some workaround and still use
a lambda, but using `operator.itemgetter(1)` instead is faster and the
recommended method in such a case.
The syntax is now compatible with Python 2 and 3 but the server script
still does not work with Python 3. For example `socket.recv()` returns
`bytes` in Python 3 and `str` in Python 2. Currently `str` is expected
so it does not work with Python 3.
In my tests there were about 1500 additional packages
available as bz2 on the server.
For some packages a newer version is now used if it is
only available as .tar.bz2 archive.
The donate-cpu.py client is tested to work with .tar.bz2
files under Python 2.7.15 and 3.6.8.
Python 3 directly decodes the text when it is read(). If there is any
invalid UTF-8 character in the text an exception is thrown (IIRC it is
UnicodeDecodeError). Opening the file with `error='ignore'` avoids
throwing an exception and just ignores the invalid character. Since
this is only possible since Python version 3 there must be extra code
for older versions.
The test script has been enhanced. It now also uses a package which
contains a file with at least one invalid UTF-8 character.
Now also found:
- Includes directly at the beginning of a file
- Indented includes
- Includes where there is no white-space between
"include" and header name
The function libcerror_error_set() is currently the function for which
daca@home most often reports a missing configuration (more than 80000
times).
Official repository of libcerror: https://github.com/libyal/libcerror
The library configuration has been tested with the library libvhdi:
ftp://ftp.se.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libv/libvhdi/libvhdi_20181227.orig.tar.gz
This detects more includes / headers. For example includes like
"# include <gtk/gtk.h>" with a space before "include" as it is used in
the package http://cppcheck.osuosl.org:8000/gbatnav are now also
detected.
The regex search also searches all includes for one library in one go
instead of one include per loop.
Tested with several packages to make sure libraries that were detected
before are still detected.
If "head" and "OLD_VERSION" both crash there are no messages and the
variable `results_exist" is set to False. But still the results must be uploaded
for the crashes to be saved also.
Tested with the package http://cppcheck.osuosl.org:8000/double-conversion
Ignore normal results (not fast or info) where the diff was made against the wrong OLD_VERSION. This avoids unwanted results when some client still analyzes an old package but the OLD_VERSION in the server script is changed for example.
Results missing the Cppcheck version info completely are also ignored.
Tested locally with correct and wrong version numbers.
Only enable the library option for those configurations if the
corresponding .cfg file exists to not crash Cppcheck if an
older version than 1.87 is used as the "old" version.
Two logging handler are added. One just prints all output with at least INFO severity to the console. The other only prints ERROR severity and above to a rotating file. The file size is limited to 100 kB. Since one backup file is used that results in a maximum of 200 kB disk usage.
The log file is saved in the directory where the server script is.
Hopefully this way some issues can be found more easily.
Tested locally.
The version number is added to the result output so issues could be more easily reproduced and in the future if it is necessary to handle any specific version of the client by the server in a special way (for example because it is erroneous) this is possible now.
Tested locally.
Searching for `#include <SDL.h>` does not always work. Sometimes `#include "SDL.h"` is used, but for now lets see for how many packages it works this way.
The checkLibraryFunction report is currently about 15 MB in size, lists more than 140000 functions and takes a long time to be generated.
Limiting the functions that are shown should save bandwidth, time and other resources on the server (and client that downloads the report).
Tested locally.
Add check to only use boost library if boost.cfg exists since it is very new.
If the boost.cfg does not exist Cppcheck would exit with an error and we
would not get the desired results.
For now the boost library configuration detection is commented out. It
should be enabled after the release of Cppcheck 1.87.
Tested locally.
