Summary:
`get_resource_or_undef` attribute is weird and was causing problems for me in another diff.
This diff refactors the attribute categories to make resource and undef separate.
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:
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 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 commit is the result of
`find infer/src -name '*.ml' -or -name '*.mli' -exec ocp-indent -i \{\} \;`
and
`INFER_CHECK_COPYRIGHT=1 InferPrint`
Summary:
This attribute was used to tag arguments to variadic functions, as a way to
detect premature sentinels. The approach to detect premature sentinels has
changed making it obsolete.
