Subject: [PATCH] Remove offset pointer optimization in inftrees.c.
inftrees.c was subtracting an offset from a pointer to an array,
in order to provide a pointer that allowed indexing starting at
the offset. This is not compliant with the C standard, for which
the behavior of a pointer decremented before its allocated memory
is undefined. Per the recommendation of a security audit of the
zlib code by Trail of Bits and TrustInSoft, in support of the
Mozilla Foundation, this tiny optimization was removed, in order
to avoid the possibility of undefined behavior.
There was a small optimization for PowerPCs to pre-increment a
pointer when accessing a word, instead of post-incrementing. This
required prefacing the loop with a decrement of the pointer,
possibly pointing before the object passed. This is not compliant
with the C standard, for which decrementing a pointer before its
allocated memory is undefined. When tested on a modern PowerPC
with a modern compiler, the optimization no longer has any effect.
Due to all that, and per the recommendation of a security audit of
the zlib code by Trail of Bits and TrustInSoft, in support of the
Mozilla Foundation, this "optimization" was removed, in order to
avoid the possibility of undefined behavior.
d1d577490c.patch
Improvemed patches to address travis and appveyor build errors
Reduced WINVER and _WIN32_WINNT to 0x0501 to be less restrictive
Refined CMakeLists.txt to allow for normal Windows and MinGW-specific OpenSSL certificate generation
Simplified include path to gettimeofday.h
Removed unnecessary list(APPEND LWS_LIBRARIES zlib_internal) export
Added back #include <windows.h> to gettimeofday.c to fix build for normal Windows
Made sure that pollfd gets defined on libwebsockets side when _WIN32_WINNT < 0x0600
Made sure that WINVER and _WIN32_WINNT don't get overridden by libwebsockets headers when already set to something greater than 0x0501
Added missing declaration of WSAPoll function for WINVER < 0x0600 in libwebsockets.h, eliminated invalid usages of pollfd instead of libwebsocket_pollfd in test-server.c
Cleaned up duplicate content in gettimeofday.c, removed header inclusions from gettimeofday.h and fixed include order in test-echo.c, test-ping.c and test-server.c to enable build with normal Windows and MinGW
Re-enabled debug_level in test-echo.c and made sure that the call to lws_set_log_level() is also active under Windows (just like in test-server.c); replaced all WIN32 occurrences by _WIN32 in test-echo.c, test-ping.c, and test-server.c
Removed build-msys.sh and added new section about how to build libwebsockets using MinGW to README.build.md
