Nick Wellnhofer f19a9510 2023-12-10T17:50:22 parser: Report malloc failures Fix many places where malloc failures aren't reported. Make xmlErrMemory public. This is useful for custom external entity loaders. Introduce new API function xmlSwitchEncodingName. Change the way how we store whether the the parser is stopped. This used to be signaled by setting ctxt->instate to XML_PARSER_EOF which was misdesigned and error-prone. Set ctxt->disableSAX to 2 instead and introduce a macro PARSER_STOPPED. Also stop to remove parser inputs in xmlHaltParser. This allows to remove many checks of ctxt->instate. Introduce xmlErrParser to handle errors if a parser context is available.
Nick Wellnhofer 834b8123 2023-08-08T15:21:28 parser: Stream data when reading from memory Don't create a copy of the whole input buffer. Read the data chunk by chunk to save memory. Historically, it was probably envisioned to read data from memory without additional copying. This doesn't work reliably with the current design of the XML parser which requires a terminating null byte at the end of input buffers. This lead to xmlReadMemory interfaces, which expect pointer and size arguments, being changed to make a zero-terminated copy of the input buffer. Interfaces based on xmlReadDoc, which actually expect a zero-terminated string and would make zero-copy operation work, were then simplified to rely on xmlReadMemoryi, resulting in an unnecessary copy. To avoid copying (possibly gigabytes) of memory temporarily, we now stream in-memory input just like content read from files in a chunk-by-chunk fashion (using a somewhat outdated INPUT_CHUNK size of 250 bytes). As a side effect, we also avoid another copy of the whole input when handling non-UTF-8 data which was made possible by some earlier commits. Interfaces expecting zero-terminated strings now make use of strnlen which unfortunately isn't part of the standard C library and only mandated since POSIX 2008.
Nick Wellnhofer ccb6d544 2022-11-27T02:09:27 Hide internal functions These functions were never declared in public headers, so it should be safe to hide them. Fixes #139.
Nick Wellnhofer 46cd7d22 2022-11-13T16:30:46 io: Remove xmlInputReadCallbackNop In some cases, for example when using encoders, the read callback was set to NULL, in other cases it was set to xmlInputReadCallbackNop. xmlGROW only tested for xmlInputReadCallbackNop, resulting in errors when parsing large encoded content from memory. Always use a NULL callback for memory buffers to avoid ambiguities. Fixes #262.
Nick Wellnhofer 0f568c0b 2022-08-26T01:22:33 Consolidate private header files Private functions were previously declared - in header files in the root directory - in public headers guarded with IN_LIBXML - in libxml.h - redundantly in source files that used them. Consolidate all private header files in include/private.
