2014-08-25xcb_get_setup(): Never return NULLUli Schlachter1-1/+21
The documentation doesn't mention it and it's unlikely that a lot of code out there handles this case correctly. So, instead of returning NULL, let xcb_get_setup() return a pointer to a static, invalid, all-zero setup information structure. Signed-off-by: Uli Schlachter <psychon@znc.in>
2014-08-25Make some functions also work on error connectionsUli Schlachter1-2/+2
There is no technical reason why xcb_get_setup() and xcb_get_file_descriptor() shouldn't work on non-static error connections. They cannot be used for many useful things, but at least they work. This works around bugs in lots of programs out there which assume that xcb_get_setup() does not return NULL and which just happily dereference the results. Since xcb_connect() never returns NULL, it's a bit weird that xcb_get_setup() can do so. xcb_get_file_descriptor() is just modified since this can be done here equally easily and because the fd isn't closed until the final xcb_disconnect() on the error connection. Non-static error connections are connections which entered an error state after xcb_connect() succeeded. If something goes wrong in establishing a connection, xcb_connect() will return a static error connection which doesn't have the fields used here. Signed-off-by: Uli Schlachter <psychon@znc.in>
2014-08-20support switch case in the generatorChristian Linhart1-22/+33
The implementation is rather simple: When a <case> is used instead of a <bitcase> then operator "==" is used instead of "&" in the if-condition. So it creates a series of "if" statements (instead of a switch-case statement in C ) In practice this does not matter because a good optimizing compiler will create the same code as for a switch-case. With this simple implementation we get additional flexibility in the following forms: * a case value may appear in multiple case branches. for example: case C1 will be selected by values 1, 4, or 5 case C2 will be selected by values 3, 4, or 7 * mixing of bitcase and case is possible (this will usually make no sense but there may be protocol specs where this is needed) details of the impl: * replaced "is_bitcase" with "is_case_or_bitcase" in all places so that cases are treated like bitcases. * In function "_c_serialize_helper_switch": write operator "==" instead of operator "&" if it is a case.

2014-03-30Ensure xcb owns socket and no other threads are writing before send_requestKeith Packard1-17/+40
send_request may only write to out.queue if no other thread is busy writing to the network (as that thread may be writing from out.queue). send_request may only allocate request sequence numbers if XCB owns the socket. Therefore, send_request must make sure that both conditions are true when it holds iolock, which can only be done by looping until both conditions are true without having dropped the lock waiting for the second condition. We choose to get the socket back from Xlib first as get_socket_back has a complicated test and checking for other threads writing is a simple in-lined check. This also changes the sequence number checks (64k requests with no reply, 4M request wrapping) to ensure that both conditions are true before queueing the request.

2014-03-21xcb_disconnect(): Fix leak with error connectionsUli Schlachter1-1/+10
There are two kind of error connections in XCB. First, if something goes wrong while the connection is being set up, _xcb_conn_ret_error() is used to return a static connection in an error state. If something goes wrong later, _xcb_conn_shutdown() is used to set c->has_error. This is important, because the static object that _xcb_conn_ret_error() returns must not be freed, while the dynamically allocated objects that go through _xcb_conn_shutdown() must obviously be properly deallocated. This used to work correctly, but in 769acff0da8, xcb_disconnect() was made to ignore all connections in an error state completely. Fix this by only ignoring the few static error connections that we have. This was tested with the following hack: xcb_connection_t *c = xcb_connect(NULL, NULL); close(xcb_get_file_descriptor(c)); xcb_discard_reply(c, xcb_get_input_focus(c).sequence); xcb_flush(c); xcb_disconnect(c); Valgrind confirms that xcb has a memory leak before this patch that this patch indeed fixes.

2014-02-19Add comments about how _xcb_conn_ret_error() worksRan Benita2-0/+4
If xcb_connect() fails, it doesn't return NULL. Instead, it always returns an xcb_connection_t*, and the user should check for errors with the xcb_connection_has_error() function. What this function does is check if conn->has_error contains a non-zero error code, and returns it. If an error did occur, xcb doesn't actually return a full xcb_connection_t though, it just returns (xcb_connection_t *) error_code. Since the 'has_error' field is the first, it is still possible to check conn->has_error. That last trick was not immediately obvious to me, so add some guiding comments. This also ensures no one obliviously rearranges the struct. Signed-off-by: Ran Benita <ran234@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Uli Schlachter <psychon@znc.in>

2014-01-03Force XCB event structures with 64-bit extended fields to be packed.Kenneth Graunke2-3/+11
With the advent of the Present extension, some events (such as PresentCompleteNotify) now use native 64-bit types on the wire. For XGE events, we insert an extra "uint32_t full_sequence" field immediately after the first 32 bytes of data. Normally, this causes the subsequent fields to be shifted over by 4 bytes, and the structure to grow in size by 4 bytes. Everything works fine. However, if event contains 64-bit extended fields, this may result in the compiler adding an extra 4 bytes of padding so that those fields remain aligned on 64-bit boundaries. This causes the structure to grow by 8 bytes, not 4. Unfortunately, XCB doesn't realize this, and always believes that the length only increased by 4. read_packet() then fails to malloc enough memory to hold the event, and the event processing code uses the wrong offsets. To fix this, mark any event structures containing 64-bit extended fields with __attribute__((__packed__)). v2: Use any(...) instead of True in (...), as suggested by Daniel Martin. v3 (Alan Coopersmith): Fix build with Solaris Studio 12.3 by moving the attribute to after the structure definition.
