string: Add tests for zero length string inputs

For the string functions that take string lengths as an argument we
should ensure that no data is read or written if a length of zero is
specified. Pointers to PROT_NONE memory are used to ensure that any
reads or writes will cause a fault.

You do not need these. C standard requires arguments to be valid
pointers for most string functions, and they are already marked nonnull
in header.

Just adding size 0 to inputs would suffice.

These tests are not testing null pointers, they are testing that when
given a zero length the functions actually read/write zero bytes.
Whether the specification demands that behaviour is arguable but I
believe that it is the most sane behaviour.

Valid pointers is more than just non-NULL.  In particular, it implies
that is safe to dereference the addressed byte in a source operand even
when the length parameter is zero.  Thus testing that no bytes are read
would be incorrect.

If that is the case then I withdraw the patch. Is that requirement
documented anywhere?

C99 $7.21.1 clause 2.

I just reread C99 7.1.4 clause 1 and 7.21.2 clause 2, and I don't see 
that implication.  For example, the following program appears to be 
strictly conforming:

    #include <string.h>

    char src[1];
    char dst[1];

    int
    main (void)
    {
      memcpy (dst, src + 1, 0);
      return 0;
    }

Here, src + 1 is a valid pointer even though one cannot safely 
dereference it.  So it appears to be reasonable to check that memcpy 
doesn't dereference the source when the size is zero.

Valid pointers can also point one element past the end of an array of 
objects.  Such pointers can occur naturally during the final iteration 
of buffer-processing loops.  I don't think it is reasonable to expect 
that programmers write special code (or at least early loop exits) to 
deal with this corner case.  This has to work, and if the C standard 
does not guarantee it does, it needs fixing.

I disagree, per the above.

Read clause 1 of 7.1.4 again.  "If an argument to a function has an
invalid value ... or a pointer outside of the address space of the
program... the behaviour is undefined."

Ergo, if src+1 can point outside of the address space of the program,
it's undefined behaviour.  And by corollary, it must be safe to
dereference the precise location passed as the argument (but obviously,
not necessarily bytes either side of it).

My reading of those sections also leads me to believe that memcpy could
legitimately expect to perform "*(char*)dst = *(char*)dst", even if the
length is zero.

I don't think such a pointer forms a valid argument for a library
function though.  See my previous reply to Paul.

Furthermore, I can think of no reason why 7.21.1/2 would explicitly
require valid pointers when the length parameter was 0 unless it was
intended that dereferencing could occur.

src+1 is _not_ outside of the address space.  It is a valid pointer
(which you must not dereference).

As Andreas points out, src+1 does not point outside the address space of 
the program.  It is a valid pointer.

I'm sorry, but this reading is incorrect.  If the size is zero, memcpy 
cannot store any bytes into the destination.  Any memcpy that does 
otherwise would break a lot of programs.

It caters to (unusual) architectures that require valid pointers in 
address registers even when the pointers are not dereferenced, e.g., 
loading a pointer into an address register will trap if the pointer is 
invalid.

OK, so do we agree that for a valid pointer P, if P is *not*
dereferencable, then P-1 must be?  Put another way, if P  and P-1 are in
the same 'page' then it is safe to dereference them.

Note that even if the dest pointer can legally be dereferenced, it's
absolutely illegal in C11 for memcpy to store anything there (even
rewriting the value that's already there) since it would introduce a
data race and violate the memory model requirements. The importance of
this point cannot be overstated: as of C11, all extraneous writes that
may have been careless, inconsequential implementation details in the
past are now serious implementation bugs!

Yes. The C standard is written under the assumption that it's
impossible to work with invalid pointers in any way whatsoever. This
is why the _value_ of _any_ pointer object, wherever it may be stored,
becomes an indeterminate value when the pointed-to object's lifetime
ends, and part of why you can't do things like new=realloc(old,n);
if(new==old)...

Nope.

struct foo {
	char a;
	int b[];
}

struct foo *bar = malloc(sizeof *bar);
int *p = (int *)((unsigned char *)bar + offsetof(struct foo, b));

Now neither p nor p-1 is dereferencable, but p is a valid pointer (to
a byte within the representation array of *bar, cast to int*).

Note that the reason I used a flexible array member was to get an
offset that's valid for an object of type int (so that the cast to
int* isn't an alignment violation) but where no object actually
exists.
