We want to forbid this pattern since, unlike the other log_*()
macros, log_debug() conditionally evaluates its arguments only if
debug-level logging is enabled. Thus, a call to
log_debug("%d", x++);
will only increment x if debugging logs are enabled, which is
probably not what the programmer intended.
One bug caused by this pattern was #30628.
This script detects log_debug( ) calls with any of E++, E--, ++E,
or --E in their arguments, where E is an arbitrary expression.
Closes ticket 30743.
Here we make it clear we're only looking at listable variable names,
not at whether the variables themselves are gettable.
Also, remove an extraneous h.
(This commit is not a fixup, because of rebase conflicts.)
Since the flags are now stored with compatible numbering, we can
just OR them together and see whether the flag we want is in the
result.
(Net code removal!)
Using a bitfield here will enable us to unify the var_type_def_t flags
with the config_var_t flags.
(This commit does not yet do that unification, and does not yet
rename or refactor any flags. It only changes booleans into bits.)
Previously they checked the individual flags inside var_type_def_t;
now they call the appropriate var_type_is_*() functions.
(These functions will be removed entirely by the end of this branch.)
We had though to make all obsolete and invisible variables
ungettable, so that GETCONF would reject them. But it turns out
that this isn't the current behavior of GETCONF with those
variables. So for now, I'm leaving the current behavior unchanged.
(See ticket 31647 for a proposal to change the behavior.)
These levels get out of date really easily: we'll implement a level
dump command in tor in 31614.
They also cause conflicts and inconsistencies when merging forward
level changes.
Part of 31615.
Fix levels for subsystems that depend on log/err
* winprocess (security) doesn't use err:
* call windows process security APIs as early as possible
* init err after winprocess
* move wallclock so it's still after err
* network and time depend on log:
* make sure that network and time can use logging.
* init network and time after log
Add comments explaining the module init order.
Fixes bug 31615; bugfix on 0.4.0.1-alpha.
I was expecting our filter code to work in a way it didn't. I
thought that saying that DependencyViolation applied to "*" would
hit all of the files -- but actually, "*" wasn't implemented. I had
to say "*.c" and "*.h"
