* Change rand(), random(), drand48(), lrand48(), mrand48(), and srand48()deraadt2014-12-0813-159/+267
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | to returning strong random by default, source from arc4random(3). Parameters to the seeding functions are ignored, and the subsystems remain in strong random mode. If you wish the standardized deterministic mode, call srand_deterministic(), srandom_determistic(), srand48_deterministic(), seed48_deterministic() or lcong48_deterministic() instead. The re-entrant functions rand_r(), erand48(), nrand48(), jrand48() are unaffected by this change and remain in deterministic mode (for now). Verified as a good roadmap forward by auditing 8800 pieces of software. Roughly 60 pieces of software will need adaptation to request the deterministic mode. Violates POSIX and C89, which violate best practice in this century. ok guenther tedu millert

* avoid left shift overflow in reallocarray.bcook2014-12-081-2/+2
| | | | | | | | Some 64-bit platforms (e.g. Windows 64) have a 32-bit long. So, shifting 1UL 32-bits to the left causes an overflow. This replaces the constant 1UL with (size_t)1 so that we get the correct constant size for the platform. discussed with tedu@ & deraadt@

| | | | | | The former is not used anywhere in NetBSD, FreeBSD, or DragonFly and not supported by groff, so i'm going to delete it from mandoc(1). We don't need two macros for the same thing.

* restructure libc/string + libc/arch/*/string coperation regardingderaadt2014-11-308-155/+309
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (potentially) MD versions (function dependent, not filename dependent) split out memcpy/memmove/bcopy and strchr/index/strrchr/rindex Bring back amd64 .S versions And the final touch: switch all architectures temporarily to MI memcpy.c, which contains syslog + abort for overlapping copies. A nice harsh undefined behaviour. We will clean the entire userland of the remaining issues in this catagory, then switch to the optimised memcpy which skips the memmove check. I tried to cut this change into pieces, but testing each sub-step on every architecture is too time consuming and mindnumbing. ok miod

* Reduce instances of `` '' in manuals.bentley2014-11-151-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | troff displays these as typographic quotes, but nroff implementations almost always print them literally, which rarely has the intended effect with modern fonts, even in stock xterm. These uses of `` '' can be replaced either with more semantic alternatives or with Dq, which prints typographic quotes in a UTF-8 locale (but will automatically fall back to `` '' in an ASCII locale). improvements and ok schwarze@

* Revamp malloc.3 by reordering the sections and rewriting parts.doug2014-10-191-185/+417
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The old man page had a lot of useful information, but it was all mixed together which made it difficult to reference. The main theme in this commit is that the sections are more focused: * DESCRIPTION describes the overall behavior * RETURN VALUES describes what it may return (including implementation defined values) * EXAMPLES shows why we recently started an audit on malloc and realloc usage in the tree. * Added CAVEATS which describes what is implementation defined, gotchas and security implications of misusing these functions * Added IDIOMS which describes how these functions should or should not be used The MALLOC_OPTIONS section was left unchanged. Function names were added to DIAGNOSTICS and STANDARDS. The MALLOC_OPTIONS and DIAGNOSTICS sections were pushed down in the page so more pertinent information is higher up. This has gone through several revisions thanks to input from deraadt@ and schwarze@. Ingo also helped with some of the mandoc formatting. OK schwarze@ (as far as it is a good starting point and the code snippets look ok)
