Constify the reason string throughout the authorization check framework
Almost all of the places the string is assigned point to a literal string constant, so use const char * for those, and const char ** for function calls that return it via an argument. Fortunately the top level function, ClientAuthorized, which returns the string as its return value is called from only one place, ProcEstablishConnection. ProcEstablishConnection stores either that return value or a string literal in char *reason. It only uses reason as an argument to SendConnSetup. SendConnSetup passes the reason argument to strlen & WriteToClient, both of which already have const qualifiers on their args. Thus added const to the reason variable in ProcEstablishConnection and the reason argument to SendConnSetup. Fixes gcc warnings: dispatch.c: In function 'ProcEstablishConnection': dispatch.c:3711:9: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type auth.c: In function 'CheckAuthorization': auth.c:218:14: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type auth.c:220:20: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type connection.c: In function 'ClientAuthorized': connection.c:683:3: warning: return discards qualifiers from pointer target type mitauth.c: In function 'MitCheckCookie': mitauth.c:88:13: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type xdmauth.c:259:14: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type xdmauth.c:270:14: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type xdmauth.c:277:11: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type xdmauth.c:293:15: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type xdmauth.c:313:14: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type xdmauth.c:322:11: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type rpcauth.c: In function 'SecureRPCCheck': rpcauth.c:136:10: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type Signed-off-by: Alan Coopersmith <alan.coopersmith@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Jamey Sharp <jamey@minilop.net> Reviewed-by: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer@who-t.net>
