Rikard Falkeborn 8cd1d5a47d Use library for memleak checks (#2002)
* Use library for memleak checks

Change memleakOnRealloc and leakReturnValNotUsed to use library
configuration instead of hardcoding "realloc".

In order to do so, some care needs to be taken when matching for a
reallocation function, since it can no longer be assumed that the input
to be allocated is the first argument of the function. This complicates
getReallocationType() and checkReallocUsage() but is necessary in order
to handle for example freopen() properly.

Also, refactor memleakOnRealloc check to reduce duplicated code when
checking "a" and "*a". When doing so, extending the check to look for
arbitrary number of "*" can be done for free (just change an if
statement to a while statement). Most likely, this is an unusual case in
real world code.

* Remove redundant whitespace in Token::Match()

* Run on simplified checks

* Fix cppcheck warning

Rikard Falkeborn abea580b78 Fix FP memory leak with unknown function call in condition (#2012)
* Fix FP memory leak with unknown function call in condition

This was introduced in 8513fb81d2 when
fixing memory leaks for global variables allocated in condition. The
refactored code had an inconsistency where c and c++ code behaved
slightly differently when `var` is NULL. This seemed to not have an
impact as the code was written prior to 8513fb81d2,
but when the same code was used for conditions, FPs were introduced.

The introduced FPs were memleak warnings when there should have been an
information message about missing configurations for code like

	void f() {
		char *p = malloc(10);
		if (set_data(p)) {}
	}

Fix this by always returning true if varTok->Variable() is NULL for
both c and c++ code.

* Improve function name

Paul Fultz II a08a9c1349 Switch to use lifetime analysis for iterators and pointers to invalid containers
This will diagnose more issues such as:

    auto v0 = v.begin();
    v.push_back(123);
    std::cout << *v0 << std::endl;
}

The old memleak checker was removed, and the tests for it was removed in
commit 9765a2dfab. This also removed the

* Update docs

* Rename alloc/dalloc/realloc functions

Naming the member function realloc caused problems on appveyor. Rename
the alloc and dealloc functions as well for consistency.

* Change comparisson order

If there is a cast of the argument buffer, cppcheck would print out the
expression including the cast, which looks a bit strange to talk about

    Variable (char*)buf is used as...

Instead, only print the variable name without the cast.

Also, handle arbitrary many casts (the previous code only handled one).
Multiple casts of the input arguments is probably an unusual case in
real code, but can perhaps occur if macros are used.

(e.g. at end of switch clause).

Project astyle settings are not currently setup to detect if a file is to
have an extra carriage return after the last line of data. Two files were
altered to ensure an extra carriage return.

An advisory to enhance code was encountered in triage code. Clang advisory
on a for-loop interation value suggested that:
`use reference type 'const QString &' to prevent copying`

Scott Furry a195477470 Correct Zero/Null as pointer constant (#1938)
Building with enhanced clang warnings indicated a large number of
instances with the warning:

`warning: zero as null pointer constant`

Recommended practice in C++11 is to use `nullptr` as value for
a NULL or empty pointer value. All instances where this warning
was encountered were corrected in this commit.

Where warning was encountered in dependency code (i.e. external library)
no chnages were made. Patching will be offered upstream.

2019-06-30 09:12:18 +02:00
rebnridgway 0d7836f3a0 Calculate token scopes in advance rather than as the tokenlist is iterated (#1882)
* Added scopeinfo member to token class

Moved ScopeInfo2 declaration here as well because that's where it needs to be now.

* Added scopeinfo accessors and declaration to class

* Add new method for calculating scopes

This replaces the methods in the TemplateSimplifier which calculate the current scope as the token list is iterated.  The old method required checking if the scope had changed for every token multiple times (for multiple iterations), which was surprisingly costly.  Calculating scopes in advance like this decreases runtime on a worst-case file by around thirty percent.
ScopeInfo objects are disposed of when the TemplateSimplification is done as they are not used later.

* Add calculateScopes method to header

* Removed code that calculated current scope

This has been replaced by code that calculates the scopes up front and stores them with each token, which is much faster.

* Fixed compile errors from extra parentheses

* Added missing code to fix memory leak

* Added code to actually clean up ScopeInfo structs

* Tidy up a dodgy for loop

* Convert argument to const ref

* Calculate missing scopes

As the templatesimplificator expands templates and does multiple passes it needs to make sure all scopes are calculated.

* Remove copying the scope to the next token

This is now done properly when scopes are calculated.

* Remove call to calculateScopes

This is now done by the TemplateSimplifier.

* Recalculate scopes for every pass of simplifyTemplates

* Add code to calculate extra scopes as they are added

I thought that this might be useful for calculating scopes when Tokens are created, but as there are several ways of creating Tokens that don't guarantee that they are placed in a list it is easier to just calculate scopes when you know you have a list and when you know you're adding to a list.

* Fix several bugs and poorly designed code

Remove the global scopes collection, and clean them up instead by iterating through the tokenlist to find them.  This means scopes can be calculated by functions in the Token class as well as in the Tokenizer class without leaking the scope object.
Fix a couple of bugs in the calculateScopes method and make it more efficient.

* Remove unnecessary calls to calculateScopes

* Move brace to correct position

Calculating scopes during insertToken only needs to happen if we created a new Token.

* Handle 'using namespace' declarations separately

This fixes a bug caused by a statement matching 'struct B < 0 > ;'

* Fix argument name mismatch

* Actually use newScopeInfo when inserting Token

* Switch to using shared_ptr to hold scopeInfos

This means ScopeInfo2 objects get properly cleaned up when they are no longer needed.

* Change ScopeInfo member to be a shared_ptr

* Update code to use shared_ptr

* Add missing include for shared_ptr

* Remove unnecessary cleanup code

This has been replaced by shared_ptr for ScopeInfo2 objects

Don't instantiate templates in template type aliases. They will get

increasing the template simplifier pass count to 3 so one of the
existing tests continued to work.

Paul Fultz II 091f4bcf8d Add check for unnecessary search before insertion
This will warn for cases where searching in an associative container happens before insertion, like this:

```cpp
void f1(std::set<unsigned>& s, unsigned x) {
    if (s.find(x) == s.end()) {
        s.insert(x);
    }
}

void f2(std::map<unsigned, unsigned>& m, unsigned x) {
    if (m.find(x) == m.end()) {
        m.emplace(x, 1);
    } else {
        m[x] = 1;
    }
}
```

In the case of the map it could be written as `m[x] = 1` as it will create the key if it doesnt exist, so the extra search is not necessary.

I have this marked as `performance` as it is mostly concerning performance, but there could be a copy-paste error possibly, although I dont think thats common.

Rikard Falkeborn 4edc248dae Fix 8840: Don't warn when returning a bitmask as bool (#1818)
A common pattern is to have a function like similar to this:

	bool isFlagSet(uint32_t f) {
		return f & 0x4;
	}

Warning that the function returns a non-boolean in this case is too
noisy, it would be better suited for a Misra check, so remove the
warnings in the most obvious cases.

Rikard Falkeborn c7d7f8738c Optimize astStringVerbose() for large arrays (#1815)
Change the astStringVerbose() recursion to extend a string instead of
returning one. This has the benefit that for tokens where the recursion
runs deep (typically large arrays), the time savings can be substantial
(see comments on benchmarks further down).

The reason is that previously, for each token, the astString of its
operands was constructed, and then appended to this tokens astString.
This led to a lot of unnecessary string copying (and with that
allocations). Instead, by passing the string by reference, the number
of temporary strings is greatly reduced.

Another way of seeing it is that previously, the string was constructed
from end to beginning, but now it is constructed from the beginning to
end. There was no notable speedup by preallocating the entire string
using string::reserve() (at least not on Linux).

To benchmark, the changes and master were tested on Linux using the
commands:

	make
	time cppcheck --debug --verbose $file >/dev/null

i.e., the cppcheck binary was compiled with the settings in the
Makefile. Printing the output to screen or file will of course take
longer time.

In Trac ticket #8355 which triggered this change, an example file from the
Wine repository was attached. Running the above cppcheck on master took
24 minutes and with the changes in this commmit, took 22 seconds.

Another test made was on lib/tokenlist.cpp in the cppcheck repo, which is
more "normal" file. On that file there was no measurable time difference.

A synthetic benchmark was generated to illustrate the effects on dumping
the ast for arrays of different sizes. The generate code looked as
follows:

	const int array[] = {...};

with different number of elements. The results are as follows (times are
in seconds):

	N	master optimized
	10	0.1    0.1
	100	0.1    0.1
	1000	2.8    0.7
	2000	19     1.8
	3000	53     3.8
	5000	350    10
	10000	3215   38

As we can see, for small arrays, there is no time difference, but for
large arrays the time savings are substantial.
