Summary:
Move proc_attributes to a separate module.
Field err_log, in common between proc desc and summary, can now be moved to ProcAttributes without creating cycles of dependencies.
Summary:
There's a lot of overlap between the representation of a proc desc and a spec summary. This diff moves all the data in common to the single record proc_attributes defined in Sil.
This gives a unified way of accessing most of the data carried by a procedure, whether it is contained in a proc desc or a spec. Also, it ensures that there is a single flow of information from proc desc to spec in the back-end, making sure that the information represented stays consistent.
Summary:
Errors arising from overriding methods defined in other files were not reported, because during parallel analysis the clusters did not have access to overridden methods, so could not load their annotation.
Changed cluster generation to add location information for the methods overridden by the procedures defined in the current cluster.
Summary:
When someone runs --changed-only mode, there is a risk of corrupting the results
for future analyses. The problem is that changed-only mode does not analyze the callers of changed
procedures. If a subsequent analysis relies on the specs of one of these callers, they will be stale
and may give the wrong results. To be concrete, let's say we know `Parent.foo()` calls `Child.bar()` and we do the following rounds of analysis:
Analysis round 1: Analyze all files, including `Parent` and `Child`
Analysis round 2: Analyze `Child.bar()` only with `--changed-only flag`. `Parent.foo()` is now stale.
Analysis round 3: Add procedure `Parent.baz()` that calls `Parent.foo()`, analyze in (any) incremental mode.
The analysis will only analyze `Parent.baz()`. However, the specs for `Parent.foo()` are stale and may give us bad results for `Parent.baz()`. We want the analysis to re-analyze `Parent.baz()`, but before this diff it will not.
This diff fixes this problem by adding a `STALE` status bit to procedure summaries. In `--changed-only` mode,
the callers of a changed procedures are not re-analyzed, but their summaries are marked as stale. For both
`--changed-only` and regular incremental mode, callees of changed procedures that are marked as stale are
re-analyzed even if they have not changed. This is better than a more obvious solution like deleting stale
procedure summaries, since that would force the next analysis to re-analyze all stale procedures even if it
does not need the results for whatever analysis it is doing. This scheme implemented in this diff ensures
that each analysis only does the work that it needs to compute reliable results for its changed procedures.
Summary:
Passing the list of SuppressWarnings annotations detected during the compilation to InferPrint. The next step will be to add support for error filtering in .inferconfig and use the same mechanism. The annotation processor will generate an .inferconfig like config file and use it to suppress the reports.
Summary:
Procdesc comparison can be fragile because internal variable names
and source positions in a procedure can vary even if the procedure stays exactly the
same. This diff makes pdesc comparisons less fragile by defining structural comparsions
over instructions, nodes and expressions. These structural comparsions work by lazily
creating a mapping between names in the two procdesc's that and checking that the mapped
names are used consistently.
Summary: Another step toward getting procedure-level incrementality for Infer. Here, we just assume that *all* procs in a file have changed when the file changes, but we will filter this list using the pd_changed field of the procdesc for each procedure in the future.
Summary: Handler.postDelayed keeps a persistent reference to its Runnable argument that may cause a memory leak if an Activity is reachable from the Runnable.
Summary: The Nullable checker reported FP's when a Nullable field/param was reassigned to a non-Nullable value in the footprint. This diff fixes the problem.
Summary:
This diff allows to use to make Infer failing when using the function `failwith`. This is especially useful to use while applying complex refactoring.
Summary: Infer cannot tell if a procdesc has changed across procedure runs. If we want procedure-level incrementality, it has to know how to compute this information. This diff implements this capability by comparing a procdesc to an existing one before it is saved to disk, and marking the new one as unchanged if applicable.
Summary:
When detecting a resource leak, Infer used to raise an Leak exception and then prevent the specs to be computed for the paths containing a leak. This diff prevents resource leak to stop the analysis.
Summary:
Creating a persistent reference to an Activity leads to a nasty form of memory leaks (see http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/01/avoiding-memory-leaks.html, https://corner.squareup.com/2015/05/leak-canary.html). There are many ways to create a bad persistent reference to an Activity, but the most obvious one is via a static field.
This diff implements a very simple form of Activity leak checking by inspecting postconditions to see if a subtype of Activity is reachable from a static field (and it reports an error if so). This is a very simple and limited form of leak checking that does not understand the Android lifecycle at all. In particular, if one creates a persistent reference to an Activity and then nulls it out in `onDestroy` (a reasonably common pattern), this approach will wrongly report a bug.
Summary:
The methods in objc can have the same name in the same class, but one be instance and the other class,
so that we need to take the instance flag into account when defining unique names for ObjC methods.
Summary:
While `-results_dir` is still the main place to look for specs files and to write reports,
it's necessary to load specs from multiple folders because some build tools that run Infer with a target-level granularity may need to move specs files around in order to get complete reports, whereas with this change they just need to keep track of the `specs` folders generated for each target, and pass them through `-lib dir1 -lib dir2 ... -lib dirN`
Summary:
The symbolic execution was not stopping in case an unitialized dangling pointer was
passed to a function and then dereferenced inside the callee.
What would happen is that a wrong footprint would be added to the unititialized pointer
at the end of the function call in the caller proposition.
This checks that if we do:
frame * new_footprint
checks that we do not add heap predicates to the frame into uninitialized local variables.
If we can identify the variable then we raise a danglind pointer dereference. If instead
we cannot give a good explanation we give an internal error.
The latter case should be temporary. We should find a general way to raise dangling pointer
deref instead of the internal error.
I also fixed the model of getc that was the way I found the problem.
Summary:
This is small code cleanup of the code to report leaks. No functional changes, just removing code that is longer used and reorganising the control flow.
Summary:
This commit is the result of
`find infer/src -name '*.ml' -or -name '*.mli' -exec ocp-indent -i \{\} \;`
