Make the MISRA addon emit extra warnings for unused arguments placed in
lines other than the function definition. This makes it easier for the
user to find violations.
The MISRA 2012 standard does not say anything about variadic functions
in the definition of rule 2.7. Therefore, these cases should be
considered as false positives.
* misra: Fix 8.2 false positives
Fix false positives in rule 8.2 that occurred in cases when we have a
function definition and declaration in the same file.
For example, the following code generated false positives before this
commit:
```
void f(uint8_t * const x);
void f(uint8_t * const x)
{ (void)x; }
```
We need to distinguish the declaration and the definition, so the dump
file generation routine was extended to keep token where the definition
of the function. The analysis in the addon also been improved.
Closes Trac issue: https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/10219
This fixes the crash on with struct fields containing unknown types
reported on the forum:
https://sourceforge.net/p/cppcheck/discussion/general/thread/d64551cc55/#5f0f
The suggested patch doesn't handle the cases when there are struct
fields with arrays containing unknown types. So the addon will not
generate warnings in these cases. The problem is that Cppcheck doesn't
generate valueType-pointer information for unknown types in the dump
file. When adding this in symboldatabase.cpp, MISRA addon will generate
a lot of false positives because we depend on the null value of
valueType.
So I suppose it better to left this as is, to don't break the addon for
such rare cases.
This commit allows to specify expected suppressions in the included
header files. This is necessary to verify MISRA checkers, which make
requirements for header files. For example, Rule 8.2 requires adding
prototypes for each function to the header files.
Fix false positives for the function calls with "const pointer to const
value" arguments: https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/9967.
The variable.valueType.constness have same encoding as encoding as
ValueType::constness in Cppcheck.
C89 standard defines enum members as enumeration contants at ch.
6.4.4.3, and they are always known at compile time.
This commit fix false positives for rule 18.8 (and possible other rules
that check "constentess") with enumeration members.
Fix Trac#9913
This commit add two additional cases for rule 20.3:
1. Support violations in the following format: `#include file.h`
2. Better multiline include directives and inline comments support.
See added test cases for examples.
Define different sets of reserved keywords for C90 and C99.
This will fix false negative for compliant example, defined in MISRA
document, and close trac 9506.
This commit will add feature to detect essential type categories
for operators of ternary operation.
This fixes issues with rule 10.1 and close the following ticket:
https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/9543
* misra.py: Allow executeCheck take multiple args
* misra.py: Fix R12.3 FN in variables declaration
Make rule 12.3 check detect commas in variables declaration code.
* Fix excluded lines
* Add support for global variables
* Fix FN when linenr from other file was excluded
* Add a few more tests
* Handle more cases
Handle additional cases to check commans in variables declaration
including:
* multiline variables declaration
* functions and structures initialized in the same line
* expanding macroses in initialization
* Fix FP in global struct initialization

* misra.py: R14.2: Verify for counter modification
Add additional check to detect modification of loop counter in loop
body. Related issue: https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/9490
Add small fix that treat all assignment operators defined in N1750
6.5.16 as has side affects. This will affects rules 13.1, 13.3, 13.5
and allow to catch some false negatives.
* Add tests for fixed FPs for R13.{1,5,6}
* fix
* use isAssignmentOp from cppcheck data
* remove unused set
* handle case with empty body or syntax error
* add test with outer variable
* Fix FP in nested loops, add tests
* Fix FP on outer variables
* Fixup false positives for not loop counters
* y2038 addon: Fix that check can never return True, add tests
At the beginning of `check_y2038_safe()` the variable `y2038safe` should
be initialized with `True` and only be set to `False` if there are any
issues. Otherwise it could never become `True`.
In the unit tests the return value of `check_y2038_safe()` is now
verified. But it does not yet work for the "good" example. The "good"
example also returns `False` since it finds warnings in the include
file. So this verification is marked with a "FIXME" comment.
* y2038 tests: Add "good" test file that does not use time functionality
The test file y2038-test-5-good-no-time-used.c does not use any time
functionality so the y2038 addon is not allowed to issue any warnings
and the check must return with `True` (code is safe).
Fixed usage of hasSideEffectsRecursive which was causes crashes
of rules 12.4 and 13.1.
Add more tests for these rules.
See trac ticket: https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/9487
Add some more tests for rule 10.1. They are given as examples in the
MISRA document. The 10.1 test that causes a false positive for 10.6 can be
found under the 10.6 tests.
Track ticket for false positive:

Trac ticket for the false negative:
https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/9489
* cert.py: Add ENV33-C-EX1 exception
ENV33-C-EX1: It is permissible to call system() with a null pointer
argument to determine the presence of a command processor for the
system. [1]
[1]: https://wiki.sei.cmu.edu/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=87152177
* Handle different null-pointer constants
The unused argument causes the new check for rule 2.7 to output an error
here.
I verified that the regression test still works without the unused
argument (misra.py would still crash).
Travis should be happy again.
* Add check for MISRA-C 2012 Rule 2.7 and test cases.
* Cast unused function parameters of some test patterns to "void".
* Fix function parameter void cast in "misra_17_6". Add comment to "misra_11_7_extra" to make all function parameter void casts look alike.
Rule 21.1 now doesn't report errors on usage of library functions
started from underscore (e.g. `_exit') and valid errno assignment.
See added tests for examples.
Fix R16.3 state machine which doesn't report errors in last case/default
statemenet. See added tests for examples.
Issue on trac: https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/8548
Version 1.88 changed the parsing of the MISRA rules file adding a
severity setting. This caused a regression in rule parsing.
In particular the following format used to parse cleanly and produce
rule output that would show the severity as part of the rule text.
Rule 1.2
Advisory
Rule text goes here.
Rule 1.3
Required
More rule text goes here.
As of 1.88 a file structured like above would parse as having no rules.
The problem is the use of blank lines as a rule delimiter. The
modified rule parser wants to see a rules formatted like below:
Rule 3.1 Required
R3.1 text.
Rule 4.1 Required
R4.1 text.
or:
Rule 1.1
Add this rule and parse to next, skipping empty lines.
Rule 1.2
Rule text.
Any rule text that did not fall into one of the above formats would
result in incomplete rule text parsing.
Change the parsing of the rule text file so that blank lines are ignored
instead of treating them as a delimiter between rules. Instead use the
start of the next rule as a delimiter for the end of the previous rule.
This allows both of the newer formats but also supports the behavior of
pre-1.88 versions.
Change units tests that were specifically forbidding the use of blank
lines to ones that allow blank lines.
* cert.py: Add '--quiet' option and test
Main sentinel also was required.

https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/8946
Add tests to travis script for verifying rule text loading.
Add dummy rule text files.
misra.py: Try to find a suitable codec for rule texts file.
* Added a new naming check addon. Also verifies variable and function prefixes
* Verification added to code
* added naming checks ng selftest to travis file
* Ensure zero exit value for tests if tests succeed
* Expected values adjusted
* Fixed copy and paste error
* MISRA: Allow printing of the suppressed rules to the console
--show-suppressed-rules will print rules in the suppression rule list to
the console sorted by rule number.
* MISRA: Correct rule suppression for entire file scope
The entire file scope suppression check was checking for the rule item
list to be None instead of looking for None as an entry into the list.
Correct this check and modify the documentation to explicitly state that
an entry of None in the rule item list will set the scope for that
suppression to be the entire file.
* MISRA: Tests for checking per-file rule suppressions
To run:
../../cppcheck --suppressions-list=suppressions.txt --dump misra-suppressions*-test.c
python ../misra.py misra-suppressions*-test.c.dump
There should be no violations reported
* MISRA: Allow ignoring a prefix from file paths when suppression matching
For environments that run cppcheck from the build system cppcheck may be
passed a filename that is a complete path.
Often this path will include a portion that is specific to the developer
or to the environment where the project is located.
The per-file suppression rules do filename matching based on the
filename passed to cppcheck. To match any path information also has to
be included into the suppressions file provided to cppcheck via the
--suppressions-list= option.
This limits the usefulness of the per-file based suppressions because
it requires the suppression to be customized on a per instance basis.
Add a option "--file-prefix" that allows a prefix to be excluded from
the file path when doing the suppression filename matching.
Example.
Given the following structure:
/test/path1/misra-suppressions1-test.c
/test/path1/misra-suppressions2-test.c
specifying --file-prefix /test/path1 will allow the use of
misra-suppressions1-test.c and misra-suppressions2-test.c as filenames
in the suppressions file without leading patch information but still
match the suppression rule.
* MISRA: Tests for --file-prefix option
To run:
../../cppcheck --suppressions-list=suppressions.txt \
--dump misra-suppressions*-test.c \
path1/misra-suppressions*-test.c
python ../misra.py misra-suppressions*-test.c.dump \
path1/misra-suppressions*-test.c
There should be no violations reported
Add function isStandardFunction() that checks if the given function is a standard function.
Only when this function returns true for the currently checked rand() tokens it is reported as a violation.
Tests added for C and C++.
