Previously, cppcheck discarded the `extern "C"` specifier. This patch modifies cppcheck to parse each as a Scope in the symbol database, then uses that scope to avoid false positives when making recommendations about changing a function argument to be a reference (since variable references is a C++ feature, unavailable in C, and thus unavailable in `extern "C"`).
* Use lifetimes to check for returning reference to temporaries
* Check for dangling temporaries
* Check for unknown types for returining by reference
* Remove old returnTemporary check
* Format
* Check for deref op
* Ternary operator return an lvalue reference
* Warn when returning temporaries from member functions
* Improve handling of pointer to function
* Extend lifetimes of const references
* Fix false negatives in checkBitwiseOnBoolean
Use AST-based tests in favor of token-based tests for greater coverage.
* Travis: add suppressions for bitwiseOnBool
I fixed the AST enough to pass testrunner but I don't believe it is
correct.
This code:
void Foo4(int&&b);
has this AST:
( 'void'
|-Foo4
`-&& 'bool'
|-int
`-b 'signed int'
but I don't believe && should have `bool`.
* Add valueFlowForwardExpression function to forward values of an expression
* Use token for expression
* Fix name in bailout message
* Handle expressions
* Add more tests for more expressions
* Add more tests
* Solve the expression if possible
* Formatting
For c++14, shifting a variable with a value larger than or equal to the
number of bits in the variable is undefined. Left-shifting with a value
equal to the number of bits of the variable is implementation defined.
See also trac ticket #9306.
* use range loops
* removed redundant string initializations
* use nullptr
* use proper boolean false
* removed unnecessary continue from end of loop
* removed unnecessary c_str() usage
* use emplace_back()
* removed redundant void arguments
TODO:
Somehow Cppcheck fails to print an ignoredReturnValue message when the
return value is not used (see ticket
https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/9369 )
* Fix memleak FP with return with parenthesis
Fix FPs pointed out by daca@home on the following form:
void* f(void) {
void* x = malloc(1);
return(x);
}
Fix it by only skipping tokens if there is an actual match with a
variable. This allows to remove the special casing of "return;".
* Add testcase with cast
This fixes crashes found by daca where valueType() is NULL. Also,
somewhat related, it removes warnings when casting to a type that is
unknown to cppcheck, for example, there is no longer a warning for the
following code:
void* f() {
void *x = malloc(1);
return (mytype)x;
}
* Fix false negatives in checkAssignBoolToFloat
Detect assignments to expressions involving pointer dereferences, array
element accesses, etc.
* Pass assignment token to assignBoolToFloatError
Pass assignment token rather than boolean token to make error reporting
consistent between checkAssignBoolToFloat and checkAssignBoolToPointer,
as well as with other assignment checks in the code base.
* Make checkAssignBoolToPointer check consistent with checkAssignBoolToFloat
This was most likely introduced when the checks were changed to run on
the full tokenlist instead of the simplified one.
Take care to warn about cases where casts destroy the pointer, such as
uint8_t f() {
void* x = malloc(1);
return (uint8_t)x;
}
* Add impossible category
* Replace values
* Try to adjust known values
* Add ! for impossible values
* Add impossible with possible values
* Remove contradictions
* Add values when the branch is not dead
* Only copy possible values
* Dont bail on while loops
* Load std lib in valueflow
* Check for function calls
* Fix stl errors
* Fix incorrect impossible check
* Fix heap-after-use error
* Remove impossible values when they are lowered
* Show the bound and remove overlaps
* Infer conditions
* Dont push pointer values through dynamic_cast
* Add test for dynamic_cast issue
* Add shifttoomanybits test
* Add test for div by zero
* Add a test for issue 9315
* Dont make impossible value inconclusive
* Fix FP with shift operator
* Improve handleKnownValuesInLoop for impossible values
* Fix cppcheck warning
* Fix impossible values for ctu
* Bailout for streams
* Check equality conditions
* Fix overflows
* Add regression test for 9332
* Remove duplicate conditions
* Skip impossible values for invalid value

Is not allowed to define a type in an alias template definition.
This code:
template<int N>
using A1 = struct B1 { static auto constexpr value = N; };
A1<0> a1;
produces this output:
2: } ;
3: struct B1 { static const auto value = 0 a1 ;
test.cpp:2:57: error: Analysis failed. If the code is valid then please
report this failure. [cppcheckError]
using A1 = struct B1 { static auto constexpr value = N; };
^
because it tries to instantiate the invalid alias template definition
and generates garbage code.
This will now warn when doing something like this:
```cpp
template <class T, class K, class V>
const V& get_default(const T& t, const K& k, const V& v) {
auto it = t.find(k);
if (it == t.end()) return v;
return it->second;
}
const int& bar(const std::unordered_map<int, int>& m, int k) {
auto x = 0;
return get_default(m, k, x);
}
```
The lifetime warning is considered inconclusive in this case.
I also updated valueflow to no tinject inconclusive values unless `--inconclusive` flag is passed. This creates some false negatives because library functions are not configured to not modify their input parameters, and there are some checks that do not check if the value is inconclusive or not.
* make ellipsis ... a single token
Using cppcheck -E to preprocess code with ellipsis produces output that
can't be compiled because ... is split into 3 tokens.
* try to fix addon
This fixes the issue by making `ProgramMemory` keep track of values based on the conditions.
It also removes the `deadpointer` check since it duplicates the `invalidLifetime` check.
* Try harder to track ref lifetimes
* Dont add lifetimes for references
* Use correct token
* Check for front and back as well
* Improve handling of addresses
* Formatting
* Fix FP
* Add missing Qt macros
Add two Qt macros that were missing
* Fix issue with __declspec and final
This change is a bit naive but it fixes the issues I was having when combining __declspec(dllexport) and final classes. Without the fix I get errors along the line of "The code 'class x final :' is not handled. You can use -I or --include to add handling of this code. "
There seems to be no reason for stopping checking the scope if a call to
free() is seen (or fclose() or realloc()), so just continue checking.
Also, if there are multiple arguments, check all, perhaps there are more
memory leaks to warn about.
This fixes the FP in cases like this:
```cpp
void f() {
bool b;
bool * x = &b;
if (x != nullptr)
x = 1;
}
```
It tracks the indirection of the uninit value in valueflow.
-Add iterator end patterns
-Add/fix size and access functions
-Remove marking QList and QStringList as std-like strings
-QStringList configuration now inherits from QList like it is actually the case
-Add tests
Use the AST a little bit more to improve the check. In order to do so,
rewrite the check to work from the outer function first and then check
the arguments, instead of the other way around.
It also fixes Trac ticket #9252, no warning is now given for
void* malloc1() {
return(malloc1(1));
}
This FP seems to be common in daca results.
It also makes it possible to improve handling of casts, for example
cppcheck now warns about
void f() {
strcpy(a, (void*) strdup(p));
}
But not for
char* f() {
char* ret = (char*)strcpy(malloc(10), "abc");
return ret;
}
These FP/FN were introduced when the check was switched to use the
simplified token list.
This fixes false positives from daca@home where freopen is used to
reopen a standard stream. There is no longer a warning for
void f() {
assert(freopen("/dev/null", "r", stdin));
}
It is hard to find good references, one that describes it a bit can
be found here:
https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man3/xmalloc.3pub.html
xfree() can be used instead of free().
A check, to verify that a memory leak is found if the memory allocated
via xmalloc() is not freed, has also been added.
* Fix#9225 (Crash on valid C++14 code)
This only fixes the crash. Specialization of nested templates is still
broken.
* fix cppcheck warnings
* fixed another cppcheck warning
* 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
* 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
This will diagnose more issues such as:
```cpp
void f(std::vector<int> &v) {
auto v0 = v.begin();
v.push_back(123);
std::cout << *v0 << std::endl;
}
```
* Improve configuration of g_try_realloc and g_try_realloc_n
* Mark g_realloc and similar functions as realloc functions
* Remove g_new, g_new0, etc as <alloc> functions, these are defined as
macros and handled as the functions they're expanded to.
* Add tests. TODO tests will be resolved by using the library
configuration in the checker.
* Fix adding unescaped slash token when splitting gcc case range.
Construction like case '!'...'~' converted to a list of separate case
tokens. When slas '\' symbol appears as a part of this list it was added
"as is", but it should be escaped like '\\' to be valid c++ code.
* Add test for switch-case range with slash
* Fix#9097 (Crash on thousands of "else ifs"s in gcc-avr package)
* increase recursion count maximum to 512 because cppcheck was hitting the 256 limit
* 512 was too much for windows
* Refactor Tokenizer::simplifyUsing to use continue to reduce indentation
added function findTemplateDeclarationEnd to skip template declarations
to reduce duplicate code
* fix travis build
This switches to use lifetime analysis to check for assigning to non-local variables:
```cpp
class test
{
public:
void f()
{
int x;
this->ptr = &x;
}
protected:
int *ptr;
};
```
* Partial fix for #9191 (simplifyTypedef: Problem when namespace is used)
This fixes simplifyUsing which has the same problem as simplifyTypedef.
simplifyUsing was designed to support using namespace but it was never
implemented. The changes are minor to add it.
simplifyTypedef requires much more work to support using namespace.
* reduce scope of variable
* make idx const
* Allow to configure realloc like functions
* memleakonrealloc: Bring back tests.
The old memleak checker was removed, and the tests for it was removed in
commit 9765a2dfab. This also removed the
tests for memleakOnRealloc. Bring back those tests, somewhat modified
since the checker no longer checks for memory leaks.
* Add realloc to mem leak check
* Add tests of realloc buffer size
* Configure realloc functions
* Add test of freopen
* Allow to configure which element is realloc argument
* Fix wrong close in test
cppcheck now warns for this
* Update manual
* 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
* Remove variable and use function call directly
* Create temporary variable to simplify
* Throw mismatchError on mismatching allocation/reallocation
* Refactor to separate function
* Fix potential nullptr dereference
As pointed out by cppcheck.
* Overlapping sprintf, improve handling of casts
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.
* Fix printing of variable
... and add a test.
* Simplify testcase
* Update symbol database such that the override keyword implies that the function is also virtual
* Add test case for implicit override
* change isVirtual to hasVirtualSpecifier
* fix method documentation for getVirtualFunctionCalls and getFirstVirtualFunctionCallStack
* Fix isImplicitlyVirtual to consider the override keyword and document logic
* Fix getFirstVirtualFunctionCallStack and getVirtualFunctionCalls to use isImplicitlyVirtual instead of isVirtual so new test case passes
* Fix#9047 (c-style casts before malloc)
Note that there are still no warnings for c++-style casts
* Fix memleak check with casts of assignments in if-statements
* Fix possible null pointer dereference
As pointed out by cppcheck.
* Add check of astOperand2 when removing casts
This is similar to how it is done in other checks.
Further to pull request #1938. Changes were missed in previous commit.
Resolve warnings `warning: zero as null pointer constant` in code by
using C++ 11 recommended `nullptr`.
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.
* fix adding instantiation of first argument to an instantiation
* add support for function pointer template variables
* fix more cases where templates ending in ">>" are changed to end in "> >"
* fix travis build
* standard types can't be a template parameter name
* remove redundant level == 0 checks
* fix lambda in template variable
* fix a test
This reverts commit 2a4be5ae1c.
When I look at daca@home now there are still lots of false negatives. So this bailout did not cause as much false negatives as I thought.
strdup() allocates the string length plus one for a terminating null
character. Add one to compensate for this.
Fixes false positive buffer out of bounds on code like this:
void f() {
const char *a = "abcd";
char * b = strdup(a);
printf("%c", b[4]); // prints the terminating null character
free(b);
}
Also, add a testcase for valueFlowDynamicBufferSize() and add tests for
strdup(), malloc() and calloc().
* 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
* template simplifier: add 2 new template parameter simplifications
int{} -> 0
decltype(int{}) -> int
This fixes reduced test cases like #9153. I'm not sure they will help
real world code that much.
It was necessary to increase the pass count to 4 to get #9153 completly
simplified.
* relax decltype(type{}) simplification to any type
