libctf has always handled endianness differences by detecting foreign-endian CTF dicts on the input and endian-flipping them: dicts are always written in native endianness. This makes endian-awareness very low overhead, but it means that the foreign-endian code paths almost never get routinely tested, since "make check" usually reads in dicts ld has just written out: only a few corrupted-CTF tests are actually in fixed endianness, and even they only test the foreign- endian code paths when you run make check on a big-endian machine. (And the fix is surely not to add more .s-based tests like that, because they are a nightmare to maintain compared to the C-code-based ones.) To improve on this, add a new environment variable, LIBCTF_WRITE_FOREIGN_ENDIAN, which causes libctf to unconditionally endian-flip at ctf_write time, so the output is always in the wrong endianness. This then tests the foreign-endian read paths properly at open time. Make this easier by restructuring the writeout code in ctf-serialize.c, which duplicates the maybe-gzip-and-write-out code three times (once for ctf_write_mem, with thresholding, and once each for ctf_compress_write and ctf_write just so those can avoid thresholding and/or compression). Instead, have the latter two call the former with thresholds of 0 or (size_t) -1, respectively. The endian-flipping code itself gains a bit of complexity, because one single endian-flipper (flip_types) was assuming the input to be in foreign-endian form and assuming it could pull things out of the input once they had been flipped and make sense of them. At the cost of a few lines of duplicated initializations, teach it to read before flipping if we're flipping to foreign-endianness instead of away from it. libctf/ * ctf-impl.h (ctf_flip_header): No longer static. (ctf_flip): Likewise. * ctf-open.c (flip_header): Rename to... (ctf_flip_header): ... this, now it is not private to one file. (flip_ctf): Rename... (ctf_flip): ... this too. Add FOREIGN_ENDIAN arg. (flip_types): Likewise. Use it. (ctf_bufopen_internal): Adjust calls. * ctf-serialize.c (ctf_write_mem): Add flip_endian path via a newly-allocated bounce buffer. (ctf_compress_write): Move below ctf_write_mem and reimplement in terms of it. (ctf_write): Likewise. (ctf_gzwrite): Note that this obscure writeout function does not support endian-flipping. |
