Sources were built with Clang but with increased verbosity of error detection.
A number of syntax and semantic warnings were encountered. Commit adds
changes to correct these warnings.
Some changes involve removing extra, and unncessary, semi-colons at EOL
(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`
* 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This has been replaced by code that calculates the scopes up front and stores them with each token, which is much faster.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
* Add non const version of some methods of Token
The aim is to reduce the (ab)use of const_cast.
* Cleanup some more const_cast in valueflow
* Remove useless const_cast
* Remove some const_cast from templatesimplifier
* Remove some const_cast from valueflow
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.
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.
* Code changes for Token::mImpl optimisation
* Added new TokenImpl optimisation
Moving members to the TokenImpl struct reduces the size of the Token class, which is a fairly significant optimisation. In my testing on Windows with 32-bit Release-PCRE, this change reduced the size of the Token class from 108 bits to 52 bits and reduced run-time of my test case by around 20%.
* Several optimisations
Deleted some code that ran very slowly and did nothing, as there is no need to change a Token's string to null if you are about to delete it.
Added a frontToken to simplifyCalculations to reduce the amount of work it has to do on already-simplified calculations.
Moved template removal to the end of the list as this reduces redundant iteration and saves time.
* Added tok argument to simplifyCalculations
This means callers can avoid unnecessary work if they know which tokens have already been simplified. Passing nullptr indicates the original behaviour (starting from the front of the list).
* Removed mention of member from another change
* Re-added and optimised some code deleted in error
Changing mTemplateInstantiations to a vector avoids the high cost of doing repeated linear searches. Changing how the code iterates through the array was necessary because the vector can be resized at several points during the loop, which breaks existing references and iterators.
* Changed mTemplateInstantiations to a vector
This is an optimisation that makes repeated linear searches of this collection significantly faster.
Also added a copy constructor to TokenAndName so code can make copies of these objects to keep a reference if a vector gets resized.
* A cleaner optimisation to removing template tokens
This reverts the previous change to made mInstantiatedTemplates a vector and the iterator changes to support this, and makes mTypesUsedInTemplateInstantiation so the eraseTokens logic can be unified.
* Reverted vector to list
Also made mTypesUsedInTemplateInstantiation a vector of TokenAndName objects so it can share the same logic as the other members.
* Added member for template simplifier pointer
This can be used more efficiently than marking Tokens with a flag and then searching through all templates to find the one that matches.
* Turned loop inside out
This means we only have to iterate through the std::list once. std::list is very expensive to iterate through.
* Latest code from danmar and fixed optimisations
In particular I have optimised simplifying template instantiation names as this was incredibly slow because of the number of times it had to iterate through the template instantiation list. Previous optimisations to this weren't very effective and broke some edge cases.
* Added changes from danmar
Made mExplicitInstantiationsToDelete a vector of TokenAndName to be consistent with the rest of the members, which are cleaned up very efficiently.
* Tokens can have many templateSimplifierPointers
* templateSimplifierPointers must be kept in sync
* Fixed#8693 (Template specialization: Constructor detected as normal function (functionStatic error))
Refactor template simplifier to remove the existing full specialization
function expandSpecialized and allow full specializations to use the
existing function expandTemplate. The function expandTemplate was
modified to either expand the template like it originally did by copying
it or to modify the template in place. Both instantiated and
uninstantiated full specializations are modified in place. This also
fixes#8692 and probably other related tickets as well.
The function simplifyTemplates now tries twice to simplify templates so
more templates can be simplified. We should try as many times as
necessary to find all possible templates. We can't do that now because
uninstantiated templates are left unchanged. It is relatively straight
forward to have the new code also expand in place uninstantiated
templates with their symbolic types but namespaces are not handled
properly (ticket #8671) and it would introduce regressions.
* Fix travis warnings.
* Fixed#8683 (Using deleted token with multiple template instantiations.)
* Fixed#8321 (heap use after free: templatesimplifier)
* Add a flag to Token indicating that it has a pointer to it.
* Run dmake
* Fix one source of list pointers to deleted tokens.
Refactor TemplateSimplifier class to get access to template lists.
Remove many function parameters now that they are class variables.
Fix one source of list pointers to deleted tokens.
Add tests with no output to catch crashes.
* Run dmake again.
* Make 2 more functions private.
* Make requested changes.
* Missed one change request.
* Use TokenList rather than Tokenizer.
* Move TokenAndName constructor to cpp file so token.h is not needed in header file.
