This means that xmlMemMutex can still be accessed if memory debugging is enabled, so the mutex should not be cleaned. This also means that tests may report spurious memory leaks on Windows. The old implementation avoided the issue by keeping track of all global state objects in a doubly linked list, so they could be cleaned during xmlCleanupParser. But as far as I can tell all memory will be freed eventually, so this is mostly an issue with our test suite.

db8b9722	2023-09-20T13:56:16	parser: Deprecate global parser options Note that setting global options has no effect anyway when using any of the modern parser API functions which take an option argument like xmlReadMemory or when using xmlCtxtUseOptions. Global options only have an effect when using old API functions xmlParse* or xmlSAXParse* or when using an xmlParserCtxt without calling xmlCtxtUseOptions. Unfortunately, many downstream projects still modify global parser options often without realizing that it has no effect. If necessary, switch to the modern API. Then you can safely remove all code that changes global options. Here's a list of deprecated functions and global variables together with the corresponding parser options. - xmlSubstituteEntitiesDefault, xmlSubstituteEntitiesDefaultValue Parser option XML_PARSE_NOENT - xmlKeepBlanksDefault, xmlKeepBlanksDefaultValue Inverse of parser option XML_PARSE_NOBLANKS - xmlPedanticParserDefault, xmlPedanticParserDefaultValue Parser option XML_PARSE_PEDANTIC - xmlLineNumbersDefault, xmlLineNumbersDefaultValue Always enabled by new API - xmlDoValidityCheckingDefaultValue Parser option XML_PARSE_DTDVALID - xmlGetWarningsDefaultValue Inverse of parser option XML_PARSE_NOWARNING - xmlLoadExtDtdDefaultValue Parser options XML_PARSE_DTDLOAD and XML_PARSE_DTDATTR

138213ac	2023-08-15T12:49:27	python: Fix tests on MinGW Add the directory containing libxml2.dll with os.add_dll_directory to make tests work on MinGW. This has changed in Python 3.8 but for some reason, the issue only turned up with Python 3.11 on MinGW. Contrary to documentation, copying libxml2.dll into the directory containing the .pyd file doesn't work.

3ffcc03b	2023-03-13T19:38:41	parser: Deprecate more internal functions
cb1b8b85	2023-04-10T13:06:18	xmlValidatePopElement() can return invalid value (-1) Covered by: test/VC/ElementValid5 This only affects XML Reader API with LIBXML_REGEXP_ENABLED and LIBXML_VALID_ENABLED turned on. * result/VC/ElementValid5.rdr: - Update result to add missing error message. * python/tests/reader2.py: * result/VC/ElementValid6.rdr: * result/VC/ElementValid7.rdr: * result/valid/781333.xml.err.rdr: - Update result to fix grammar issue. * valid.c: (xmlValidatePopElement): - Check return value of xmlRegExecPushString() to handle -1, and assign 'ret = 0;' to return 0 from xmlValidatePopElement(). This change affects xmlTextReaderValidatePop() from xmlreader.c. - Fix grammar of error message by changing 'child' to 'children'.
74aa61e0	2023-01-22T13:09:03	parser: Halt parser on DTD errors If we try to continue parsing after an error in the internal or external subset, entity expansion accounting gets more complicated. Simply halt the parser. Found with libFuzzer.

4762c856	2022-12-06T21:40:01	Use python3 not python As per https://peps.python.org/pep-0394/, the python binary can be one of the following options: - Python 2 - Python 3 - Not exist All of the scripts in libxml2 use 'python', which may not exist. As Python 2 reached EOL on the 1st January 2020, it's safe to move the scripts to use python3 explicitly.
0ac8c15e	2022-12-06T15:48:55	python/tests/reader2: use absolute paths everywhere The expected errors contain an relative path, but the messages from the parser contain absolute paths. However, due to the tests not actually failing if there was an error this wasn't noticed. Instead of putting relative paths in the expected messages use format() to embed the correct absolute path. Also use os.path.join() consistently when constructing paths to ensure uniformly formatted paths.
b9ba5e1d	2022-12-06T15:34:04	python/tests/reader2: always exit(1) if a test fails Batch up the errors in the first parse tests and ensure that the last tests exit with an error if they fail. Also remove an unused import.

707ade22	2022-11-22T14:56:58	Visual Studio builds: Allow silencing deprecation warnings Define XML_IGNORE_DEPRECATION_WARNINGS and the corresponding XML_POP_WARNINGS for Visual Studio, and consequently define XML_IGNORE_FPTR_CAST_WARNINGS so that we do not get a compiler warning on Visual Studio by doing a __pragma(warning(pop)) without a corresponding __pragma(warning(push)). Also correct the documentation a bit for XML_POP_WARNINGS.

67070107	2022-04-20T23:17:14	Add configuration flag for XPointer locations support Add a new configuration flag that controls whether the outdated support for XPointer locations (ranges and points) is enabled. --with-xptr-locs # Autotools LIBXML2_WITH_XPTR_LOCS # CMake The latest spec for what it essentially an XPath extension seems to be this working draft from 2002: https://www.w3.org/TR/xptr-xpointer/ The xpointer() scheme is listed as "being reviewed" in the XPointer registry since at least 2006. libxml2 seems to be the only modern software that tries to implement this spec, but the code has many bugs and quality issues. The flag defaults to "off" and support for this extensions has to be requested explicitly. The relevant API functions are deprecated.
cacf6555	2022-04-13T16:43:15	Fix compiler warnings in Python code Add more deprecated functions to avoid compiler warnings when building the Python bindings.

d9335077	2022-03-29T13:37:16	Use AM_PATH_PYTHON/PKG_CHECK_MODULES for python bindings * `AM_PATH_PYTHON` is a much more common idiom for building and installing python modules than writing your own. * It also makes cross-compiling the python bindings possible. Previously the `PYTHON_CFLAGS`/`PYTHON_LIBS` would have been based on the `--build` python and not the `--host` python. By using `pkg-config`, we can always redirect the python-X.Y.pc. Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/582130
40483d0c	2022-03-06T13:55:48	Deprecate module init and cleanup functions These functions shouldn't be part of the public API. Most init functions are only thread-safe when called from xmlInitParser. Global variables should only be cleaned up by calling xmlCleanupParser.
4a8c71eb	2022-03-04T03:35:57	Remove DOCBparser This code has been broken and deprecated since version 2.6.0, released in 2003. Because of a bug in commit 961b535c, DOCBparser.c was never compiled since 2012. I couldn't find a Debian package using any of its symbols, so it seems safe to remove this module.
ebc50097	2022-03-01T13:57:16	Warn when using deprecated functions from Python bindings This requires Python code to be run with -Wd.
5bc5f076	2022-02-24T18:34:39	Fix build with older Python versions ModuleNotFoundError is only available since Python 3.6. Use the superclass ImportError instead. Fixes commit 3cc64a89. Fixes #347.
b057239b	2022-02-22T11:52:38	More fixes to --without-valid build Fix runtest and Python bindings when building --without-valid. The Python tests still fail. There doesn't seem to be a mechanism to disable tests depending on feature flags.
004fe9de	2022-02-20T19:02:31	Deprecate IDREF-related functions in valid.h These functions are only needed internally for validation. xmlGetRefs is inherently unsafe because the ref table isn't updated if attributes are removed (unlike the ids table). None of the Ubuntu 20.04 packages depending on libxml2 use any of these functions (except xmlFreeRefTable in libxslt), so it seems perfectly safe to deprecate them. Remove xmlIsRef and xmlRemoveRef from the Python bindings.

dbfe6151	2021-07-22T15:36:15	Python distutils: Make DLL packaging more flexible This updates setup.py.in to pack the DLLs according to the options we specified to configure.js or CMake (or, even configure, although autotools builds are not likely to build the libxml2 Python module via distutils). At this point, we can pack only the DLLs that libxml2 really depends on, and pack the libxslt DLLs only if we really built the libxslt Python modules. Also make the DLL filenames more easily configured
1b7d4e2b	2021-07-22T14:46:48	tstmem.py: Try importing from libxmlmods.libxml2mod if needed Distutils builds place libxml2mod.pyd under the libxmlmods subdir, so try this directory if 'import libxml2mod' failed.
6e169c14	2021-03-30T16:11:13	python: Port python 3.x module to Windows On Windows, we don't have fcntl() which helps us to find out how a file was opened, so we need to resort to the Windows API NtQueryInformationFile() in ntdll.dll to help us, and compare the file access modes as appropriate to deduce the modes we want to pass into fdopen(). As all official Python 3.x releases are built against newer Windows CRTs that toughen checks on the validity of the file descriptor when we convert the fd to a native Windows File Handle using _get_osfhandle(), we need to define an empty handler so that the program does not abort if the fd that was passed in was invalid; instead, we just return NULL if _get_osfhandle() could not return us a valid Windows File Handle.

a0f9211b	2021-06-28T02:03:15	python/Makefile.am: use _LIBADD, not _LDFLAGS for LIBS This fixes over-linking in the built Python modules with various libraries. _LIBADD is intended for adding additional libraries for linking, while _LDFLAGS is for miscellaneous extra flags (possibly user-supplied). If using -Wl,-as-needed within user-supplied LDFLAGS, it is passed too late (after the library link line) and therefore has no effect. Notes: * Noticed while working on Gentoo's migration to libxcrypt because libxml2's Python modules were linking to libcrypt (and other libraries) unexpectedly. * It was suggested we could actually stop linking explicitly with all of Python's libraries / don't copy its LDFLAGS, but this resolves the original issue downstream and is a separate discussion. I couldn't find any clear documentation for/against such a change. Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/798942 Signed-off-by: Sam James <sam@gentoo.org>
de5b624f	2021-05-08T20:21:29	Fix handling of unexpected EOF in xmlParseContent Readd the XML_ERR_TAG_NOT_FINISHED error on unexpected EOF which was removed in commit 62150ed2. This commit also introduced a regression for direct users of xmlParseContent. Unclosed tags weren't checked.
3e80560d	2021-05-07T10:51:38	Fix line numbers in error messages for mismatched tags Commit 62150ed2 introduced a small regression in the error messages for mismatched tags. This typically only affected messages after the first mismatch, but with custom SAX handlers all line numbers would be off. This also fixes line numbers in the SAX push parser which were never handled correctly.
ac5e9991	2020-11-10T15:42:36	Convert python/libxml.c to PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN Define PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN macro in python/libxml.c and cast the string length (int len) explicitly to Py_ssize_t when passing a string to a function call using PyObject_CallMethod() with the "s#" format.
f42a0524	2020-11-09T18:19:31	Build the Python extension with PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN The Python extension module now uses Py_ssize_t rather than int for string lengths. This change makes the extension compatible with Python 3.10. Fixes #203.
e4fb3684	2020-02-28T12:48:14	Parenthesize Py<type>_Check() in ifs In C, if expressions should be parenthesized. PyLong_Check, PyUnicode_Check etc. happened to expand to a parenthesized expression before, but that's not API to rely on. Since Python 3.9.0a4 it needs to be parenthesized explicitly.

While preparing to also build a module for Python 3.4, we ran into an issue with the test case sync.py failing. The failure involved parsing a string that included a Python dictionary, then complaining when the order of the parsed result did not match the original order. But Python dictionaries are unordered by definition; see section 5.5 of https://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/datastructures.html . For whatever reason, Python 2.6 and 2.7 always happened to report the pair of values back in their original order, but with Python 3.4 the order is random. The attached patch allows for either order; it also fixes a typo that was repeated several times thanks to the magic of copy & paste.

memory: Fix memory debugging with Windows threads On Windows, malloc hooks can be called after the final call to xmlCleanupParser in various tests. This means that xmlMemMutex can still be accessed if memory debugging is enabled, so the mutex should not be cleaned. This also means that tests may report spurious memory leaks on Windows. The old implementation avoided the issue by keeping track of all global state objects in a doubly linked list, so they could be cleaned during xmlCleanupParser. But as far as I can tell all memory will be freed eventually, so this is mostly an issue with our test suite.

parser: Deprecate global parser options Note that setting global options has no effect anyway when using any of the modern parser API functions which take an option argument like xmlReadMemory or when using xmlCtxtUseOptions. Global options only have an effect when using old API functions xmlParse* or xmlSAXParse* or when using an xmlParserCtxt without calling xmlCtxtUseOptions. Unfortunately, many downstream projects still modify global parser options often without realizing that it has no effect. If necessary, switch to the modern API. Then you can safely remove all code that changes global options. Here's a list of deprecated functions and global variables together with the corresponding parser options. - xmlSubstituteEntitiesDefault, xmlSubstituteEntitiesDefaultValue Parser option XML_PARSE_NOENT - xmlKeepBlanksDefault, xmlKeepBlanksDefaultValue Inverse of parser option XML_PARSE_NOBLANKS - xmlPedanticParserDefault, xmlPedanticParserDefaultValue Parser option XML_PARSE_PEDANTIC - xmlLineNumbersDefault, xmlLineNumbersDefaultValue Always enabled by new API - xmlDoValidityCheckingDefaultValue Parser option XML_PARSE_DTDVALID - xmlGetWarningsDefaultValue Inverse of parser option XML_PARSE_NOWARNING - xmlLoadExtDtdDefaultValue Parser options XML_PARSE_DTDLOAD and XML_PARSE_DTDATTR

Use python3 not python As per https://peps.python.org/pep-0394/, the python binary can be one of the following options: - Python 2 - Python 3 - Not exist All of the scripts in libxml2 use 'python', which may not exist. As Python 2 reached EOL on the 1st January 2020, it's safe to move the scripts to use python3 explicitly.

python/tests/reader2: use absolute paths everywhere The expected errors contain an relative path, but the messages from the parser contain absolute paths. However, due to the tests not actually failing if there was an error this wasn't noticed. Instead of putting relative paths in the expected messages use format() to embed the correct absolute path. Also use os.path.join() consistently when constructing paths to ensure uniformly formatted paths.

The flag defaults to "off" and support for this extensions has to be requested explicitly. The relevant API functions are deprecated.

Deprecate IDREF-related functions in valid.h These functions are only needed internally for validation. xmlGetRefs is inherently unsafe because the ref table isn't updated if attributes are removed (unlike the ids table). None of the Ubuntu 20.04 packages depending on libxml2 use any of these functions (except xmlFreeRefTable in libxslt), so it seems perfectly safe to deprecate them. Remove xmlIsRef and xmlRemoveRef from the Python bindings.

python: Port python 3.x module to Windows On Windows, we don't have fcntl() which helps us to find out how a file was opened, so we need to resort to the Windows API NtQueryInformationFile() in ntdll.dll to help us, and compare the file access modes as appropriate to deduce the modes we want to pass into fdopen(). As all official Python 3.x releases are built against newer Windows CRTs that toughen checks on the validity of the file descriptor when we convert the fd to a native Windows File Handle using _get_osfhandle(), we need to define an empty handler so that the program does not abort if the fd that was passed in was invalid; instead, we just return NULL if _get_osfhandle() could not return us a valid Windows File Handle.

python/Makefile.am: use *_LIBADD, not *_LDFLAGS for LIBS This fixes over-linking in the built Python modules with various libraries. *_LIBADD is intended for adding additional libraries for linking, while *_LDFLAGS is for miscellaneous extra flags (possibly user-supplied). If using -Wl,-as-needed within user-supplied LDFLAGS, it is passed too late (after the library link line) and therefore has no effect. Notes: * Noticed while working on Gentoo's migration to libxcrypt because libxml2's Python modules were linking to libcrypt (and other libraries) unexpectedly. * It was suggested we could actually stop linking explicitly with all of Python's libraries / don't copy its LDFLAGS, but this resolves the original issue downstream and is a separate discussion. I couldn't find any clear documentation for/against such a change. Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/798942 Signed-off-by: Sam James <sam@gentoo.org>

python/tests/sync.py assumes Python dictionaries are ordered For https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734017 Solaris has had libxml2 version 2.9.1 for a while, with Python versions 2.6 and 2.7. While preparing to also build a module for Python 3.4, we ran into an issue with the test case sync.py failing. The failure involved parsing a string that included a Python dictionary, then complaining when the order of the parsed result did not match the original order. But Python dictionaries are unordered by definition; see section 5.5 of https://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/datastructures.html . For whatever reason, Python 2.6 and 2.7 always happened to report the pair of values back in their original order, but with Python 3.4 the order is random. The attached patch allows for either order; it also fixes a typo that was repeated several times thanks to the magic of copy & paste.
