Fix memory handling in strxfrm_l [BZ #16009]
[Modified from the original email by Siddhesh Poyarekar]
This patch solves bug #16009 by implementing an additional path in
strxfrm that does not depend on caching the weight and rule indices.
In detail the following changed:
* The old main loop was factored out of strxfrm_l into the function
do_xfrm_cached to be able to alternativly use the non-caching version
do_xfrm.
* strxfrm_l allocates a a fixed size array on the stack. If this is not
sufficiant to store the weight and rule indices, the non-caching path is
taken. As the cache size is not dependent on the input there can be no
problems with integer overflows or stack allocations greater than
__MAX_ALLOCA_CUTOFF. Note that malloc-ing is not possible because the
definition of strxfrm does not allow an oom errorhandling.
* The uncached path determines the weight and rule index for every char
and for every pass again.
* Passing all the locale data array by array resulted in very long
parameter lists, so I introduced a structure that holds them.
* Checking for zero src string has been moved a bit upwards, it is
before the locale data initialization now.
* To verify that the non-caching path works correct I added a test run
to localedata/sort-test.sh & localedata/xfrm-test.c where all strings
are patched up with spaces so that they are too large for the caching path.
