On 64-bit hosts (where size_t is 64 bits and int is 32 bits), the old glibc regex code mishandles strings longer than 2**31 bytes. This patch fixes this when the regex code is used in gnulib (i.e., outside glibc). * lib/regex.h (_REGEX_LARGE_OFFSETS): New feature-test macro, governing whether the rest of this patch is active. By default, the macro is disabled and the patch has no effect. (regoff_t) [defined _REGEX_LARGE_OFFSETS]: Define to off_t, not int. (__re_idx_t, __re_size_t, __re_long_size_t): New types. (struct re_pattern_buffer, re_search, re_search_2, re_match): (re_match_2, re_set_registers): Use the new types. * lib/regex_internal.h (Idx, re_hashval_t): New types. (REG_MISSING, REG_ERROR, REG_VALID_INDEX, REG_VALID_NONZERO_INDEX): New macros. (re_node_set, re_charset_t, re_token_t, re_string_realloc_buffers): (re_string_context_at, bin_tree_t, re_dfastate_t): (struct re_state_table_entry, state_array_t, re_sub_match_last_t): (re_sub_match_top_t, re_match_context_t, re_sift_context_t): (struct re_fail_stack_ent_t, struct re_fail_stack_t, struct re_dfa_t): (re_string_char_size_at, re_string_wchar_at): (re_string_elem_size_at): Use the new types and macros to port to 64-bit hosts. Use unsigned types for internal values, so that the code mostly works even for arrays larger than SSIZE_MAX. * lib/regcomp.c (re_compile_internal, init_dfa, duplicate_node): (search_duplicated_node, calc_eclosure_iter, fetch_number): (parse_reg_exp, parse_branch, parse_expression, parse_sub_exp): (build_equiv_class, build_charclass, re_compile_fastmap_iter): (free_dfa_content, create_initial_state, optimize_utf8, analyze): (optimize_subexps, calc_first, link_nfa_nodes, duplicate_node_closure): (calc_inveclosure, parse_dup_op, build_range_exp): (build_collating_symbol, parse_bracket_exp, build_charclass_op): (fetch_number, create_token_tree, mark_opt_subexp): Likewise. * lib/regex_internal.c (re_string_construct_common, create_ci_newstate): (create_cd_newstate, re_string_allocate, re_string_construct): (re_string_realloc_buffers, build_wcs_upper_buffer): (re_string_skip_chars, build_upper_buffer, re_string_translate_buffer): (re_string_reconstruct, re_string_peek_byte_case): (re_string_fetch_byte_case, re_string_context_at): (re_node_set_alloc, re_node_set_init_1, re_node_set_init_2): (re_node_set_init_copy, re_node_set_add_intersect): (re_node_set_init_union, re_node_set_merge, re_node_set_insert): (re_node_set_insert_last, re_node_set_compare, re_node_set_contains): (re_node_set_remove_at, re_dfa_add_node, calc_state_hash): (re_acquire_state, re_acquire_state_context, register_state): Likewise. * lib/regex.c (match_ctx_init, match_ctx_add_entry, search_cur_bkref_entry): (match_ctx_add_subtop, match_ctx_add_sublast, sift_ctx_init): (re_search_internal, re_search_2_stub, re_search_stub) (re_copy_regs, check_matching, check_halt_state_context, update_regs): (push_fail_stack, sift_states_iter_mb, build_sifted_states): (update_cur_sifted_state, check_dst_limits): (check_dst_limits_calc_pos_1, check_dst_limits_calc_pos): (check_subexp_limits, sift_states_bkref, merge_state_array): (check_subexp_matching_top, get_subexp, get_subexp_sub): (find_subexp_node, check_arrival, check_arrival_add_next_nodes): (check_arrival_expand_ecl, check_arrival_expand_ecl_sub): (expand_bkref_cache, check_node_accept_bytes): (group_nodes_into_DFAstates, check_node_accept, regexec, re_match): (re_search, re_match_2, re_search_2, prune_impossible_nodes): (acquire_init_state_context, check_halt_node_context): (proceed_next_node, pop_fail_stack, set_regs, free_fail_stack_return): (sift_states_backward, clean_state_log_if_needed): (sub_epsilon_src_nodes, add_epsilone_src_nodes, merge_state_with_log): (find_recover_state, transit_state_sb, transit_state_mb): (transit_state_bkref, build_trtable, match_ctx_clean): Likewise. * lib/regcomp.c (parse_dup_op): Add an extra test if Idx is unsigned, to work around an assumption that REG_MISSING is negative. * m4/regex.m4 (gl_REGEX): Require AC_SYS_LARGEFILE, Define _REGEX_LARGE_OFFSETS). Test for regoff_t/off_t bug in 64-bit and large-file glibc and in 32-bit large-file Solaris. * config/srclist.txt: Add glibc bug 1281.
