2016-08-05nedmalloc: work around overzealous GCC 6 warningLibravatar René Scharfe1-5/+4
With GCC 6, the strdup() function is declared with the "nonnull" attribute, stating that it is not allowed to pass a NULL value as parameter. In nedmalloc()'s reimplementation of strdup(), Postel's Law is heeded and NULL parameters are handled gracefully. GCC 6 complains about that now because it thinks that NULL cannot be passed to strdup() anyway. Because the callers in this project of strdup() must be prepared to call any implementation of strdup() supplied by the platform, so it is pointless to pretend that it is OK to call it with NULL. Remove the conditional based on NULL-ness of the input; this squelches the warning. Check the return value of malloc() instead to make sure we actually got the memory to write to. See https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-6/porting_to.html for details.

2016-08-04nedmalloc: fix misleading indentationLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-4/+4
Some code in nedmalloc is indented in a funny way that could be misinterpreted as if a line after a for loop was included in the loop body, when it is not. GCC 6 complains about this in DEVELOPER=YepSure mode. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-01-15mingw: uglify (a, 0) definitions to shut up warningsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+2
When the result of a (a, 0) expression is not used, MSys2's GCC version finds it necessary to complain with a warning: right-hand operand of comma expression has no effect Let's just pretend to use the 0 value and have a peaceful and quiet life again.

2016-01-14nedmalloc: allow compiling with MSys2's compilerLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+4
With MSys2's GCC, `ReadWriteBarrier` is already defined, and FORCEINLINE unfortunately gets defined incorrectly. Let's work around both problems, using the MSys2-specific __MINGW64_VERSION_MAJOR constant to guard the FORCEINLINE definition so as not to affect other platforms.

2015-10-05prefer memcpy to strcpyLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+3
When we already know the length of a string (e.g., because we just malloc'd to fit it), it's nicer to use memcpy than strcpy, as it makes it more obvious that we are not going to overflow the buffer (because the size we pass matches the size in the allocation). This also eliminates calls to strcpy, which make auditing the code base harder. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-04-28compat/nedmalloc: Fix compiler warnings on linuxLibravatar Ramsay Jones1-0/+4
On linux, when the build variable USE_NED_ALLOCATOR is set, gcc issues the following warnings: In file included from compat/nedmalloc/nedmalloc.c:63: .../malloc.c.h: In function 'mmap_resize': .../malloc.c.h:3762: warning: implicit declaration of function 'mremap' .../malloc.c.h: In function 'sys_trim': .../malloc.c.h:4195: warning: comparison between pointer and integer The warnings are caused by the <sys/mman.h> header not enabling the (conditional) declaration of the mremap() function. The declaration can be enabled by defining the _GNU_SOURCE symbol prior to including certain system header files. In particular, it may not be sufficient to simply define _GNU_SOURCE just prior to including the <sys/mman.h> header. (e.g. defining the symbol after including <sys/types.h> will be completely ineffective.) In order to suppress the warnings, we define the _GNU_SOURCE symbol at the start of the malloc.c.h header file.

2013-04-28compat/nedmalloc: Fix some sparse warningsLibravatar Ramsay Jones2-3/+3
Sparse issues many "Using plain integer as NULL pointer" warnings while checking nedmalloc.c (at least 98 such warnings before giving up due to "too many warnings"). In addition, sparse issues some "non-ANSI function declaration" type warnings for the symbols 'win32_getcurrentthreadid', 'malloc_stats' and 'malloc_footprint'. In order to suppress the NULL pointer warnings, rather than replace all uses of '0' as a null pointer representation with NULL, we add -Wno-non-pointer-null to SPARSE_FLAGS while checking nedmalloc.c. In order to suppress the "non-ANSI function declaration" warnings, we simply include the missing 'empty parameter list' prototype (void) in the function declarations.

2011-04-13remove doubled words, e.g., s/to to/to/, and fix related typosLibravatar Jim Meyering1-6/+4
I found that some doubled words had snuck back into projects from which I'd already removed them, so now there's a "syntax-check" makefile rule in gnulib to help prevent recurrence. Running the command below spotted a few in git, too: git ls-files | xargs perl -0777 -n \ -e 'while (/\b(then?|[iao]n|i[fst]|but|f?or|at|and|[dt])\s+\1\b/gims)' \ -e '{$n=($` =~ tr/\n/\n/ + 1); ($v=$&)=~s/\n/\\n/g;' \ -e 'print "$ARGV:$n:$v\n"}' Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-06-08Fix warnings in nedmalloc when compiling with GCC 4.4.0Libravatar Johannes Schindelin2-2/+4
Nedmalloc's source code has a cute #define construct to avoid inserting an if() statement, because that might interact badly with enclosing if() statements. However, GCC > 4 complains with a "warning: value computed is not used". So we cast the result to "void". GCC also does not understand the Visual C++ specific pragmas, so we need to disable them for MinGW. We need to include malloc.h on Windows even if we happen to compile the stuff as a MinGW program. Otherwise the function declaration of alloca() is missing. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-06-01Add custom memory allocator to MinGW and MacOS buildsLibravatar Marius Storm-Olsen5-0/+7055
The standard allocator on Windows is pretty bad prior to Windows Vista, and nedmalloc is better than the modified dlmalloc provided with newer versions of the MinGW libc. NedMalloc stats in Git ---------------------- All results are the best result out of 3 runs. The benchmarks have been done on different hardware, so the repack times are not comparable.
