*

*
* Unsigned integer overflow isn't *necessarily* a bug. It's well-defined in

* MOZ_NO_SANITIZE_UNSIGNED_OVERFLOW inline bool

* // pass the overall test.

* }
*
* But even well-defined unsigned overflow often causes bugs when it occurs, so
* it should be restricted to functions annotated with this attribute.
*
* The compiler instrumentation to detect unsigned integer overflow has costs
* both at compile time and at runtime. Functions that are repeatedly inlined
* at compile time will also implicitly inline the necessary instrumentation,

* The following macros are attributes that support the static analysis plugin

* as C++11 attributes. Since such attributes are legal pretty much everywhere
* and have subtly different semantics depending on their placement, the

*
* Attributes that apply to a struct or class precede the name of the class:
* (Note that this is different from the placement of final for classes!)
*
* class MOZ_CLASS_ATTRIBUTE SomeClass {};
*
* Attributes that apply to functions follow the parentheses and const
* qualifiers but precede final, override and the function body:
*
* void DeclaredFunction() MOZ_FUNCTION_ATTRIBUTE;
* void SomeFunction() MOZ_FUNCTION_ATTRIBUTE {}
* void PureFunction() const MOZ_FUNCTION_ATTRIBUTE = 0;
* void OverriddenFunction() MOZ_FUNCTION_ATTIRBUTE override;
*
* Attributes that apply to variables or parameters follow the variable's name:
*
* int variable MOZ_VARIABLE_ATTRIBUTE;
*
* Attributes that apply to types follow the type name:
*
* typedef int MOZ_TYPE_ATTRIBUTE MagicInt;
* int MOZ_TYPE_ATTRIBUTE someVariable;
* int* MOZ_TYPE_ATTRIBUTE magicPtrInt;
* int MOZ_TYPE_ATTRIBUTE* ptrToMagicInt;
*
* Attributes that apply to statements precede the statement:
*
* MOZ_IF_ATTRIBUTE if (x == 0)
* MOZ_DO_ATTRIBUTE do { } while (0);
*
* Attributes that apply to labels precede the label:
*
* MOZ_LABEL_ATTRIBUTE target:
* goto target;
* MOZ_CASE_ATTRIBUTE case 5:
* MOZ_DEFAULT_ATTRIBUTE default:
*
* The static analyses that are performed by the plugin are as follows:
*
* MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT: Applies to functions which can run script. Callers of
* this function must also be marked as MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT, and all refcounted
* arguments must be strongly held in the caller. Note that MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT
* should only be applied to function declarations, not definitions. If you
* need to apply it to a definition (eg because both are generated by a macro)
* use MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT_FOR_DEFINITION.
*
* MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT can be applied to XPIDL-generated declarations by
* annotating the method or attribute as [can_run_script] in the .idl file.
*
* MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT_FOR_DEFINITION: Same as MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT, but usable on
* a definition. If the declaration is in a header file, users of that header
* file may not see the annotation.
* MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT_BOUNDARY: Applies to functions which need to call
* MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT functions, but should not themselves be considered
* MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT. This should generally be avoided but can be used in
* two cases:
* 1) As a temporary measure to limit the scope of changes when adding
* MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT. Such a use must be accompanied by a follow-up bug
* to replace the MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT_BOUNDARY with MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT and
* a comment linking to that bug.
* 2) If we can reason that the MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT callees of the function
* do not in fact run script (for example, because their behavior depends
* on arguments and we pass the arguments that don't allow script
* execution). Such a use must be accompanied by a comment that explains
* why it's OK to have the MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT_BOUNDARY, as well as
* comments in the callee pointing out that if its behavior changes the
* caller might need adjusting. And perhaps also a followup bug to
* refactor things so the "script" and "no script" codepaths do not share
* a chokepoint.
* Importantly, any use MUST be accompanied by a comment explaining why it's
* there, and should ideally have an action plan for getting rid of the
* MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT_BOUNDARY annotation.
* MOZ_MUST_OVERRIDE: Applies to all C++ member functions. All immediate
* subclasses must provide an exact override of this method; if a subclass
* does not override this method, the compiler will emit an error. This
* attribute is not limited to virtual methods, so if it is applied to a
* nonvirtual method and the subclass does not provide an equivalent
* definition, the compiler will emit an error.
* MOZ_STATIC_CLASS: Applies to all classes. Any class with this annotation is
* expected to live in static memory, so it is a compile-time error to use
* it, or an array of such objects, as the type of a variable declaration, or
* as a temporary object, or as the type of a new expression (unless
* placement new is being used). If a member of another class uses this
* class, or if another class inherits from this class, then it is considered
* to be a static class as well, although this attribute need not be provided
* in such cases.
* MOZ_STATIC_LOCAL_CLASS: Applies to all classes. Any class with this
* annotation is expected to be a static local variable, so it is
* a compile-time error to use it, or an array of such objects, or as a
* temporary object, or as the type of a new expression. If another class
* inherits from this class then it is considered to be a static local
* class as well, although this attribute need not be provided in such cases.
* It is also a compile-time error for any class with this annotation to have
* a non-trivial destructor.
* MOZ_STACK_CLASS: Applies to all classes. Any class with this annotation is
* expected to live on the stack, so it is a compile-time error to use it, or
* an array of such objects, as a global or static variable, or as the type of
* a new expression (unless placement new is being used). If a member of
* another class uses this class, or if another class inherits from this
* class, then it is considered to be a stack class as well, although this
* attribute need not be provided in such cases.
* MOZ_NONHEAP_CLASS: Applies to all classes. Any class with this annotation is
* expected to live on the stack or in static storage, so it is a compile-time
* error to use it, or an array of such objects, as the type of a new
* expression. If a member of another class uses this class, or if another
* class inherits from this class, then it is considered to be a non-heap
* class as well, although this attribute need not be provided in such cases.
* MOZ_HEAP_CLASS: Applies to all classes. Any class with this annotation is
* expected to live on the heap, so it is a compile-time error to use it, or
* an array of such objects, as the type of a variable declaration, or as a
* temporary object. If a member of another class uses this class, or if
* another class inherits from this class, then it is considered to be a heap
* class as well, although this attribute need not be provided in such cases.
* MOZ_NON_TEMPORARY_CLASS: Applies to all classes. Any class with this
* annotation is expected not to live in a temporary. If a member of another
* class uses this class or if another class inherits from this class, then it
* is considered to be a non-temporary class as well, although this attribute
* need not be provided in such cases.
* MOZ_TEMPORARY_CLASS: Applies to all classes. Any class with this annotation
* is expected to only live in a temporary. If another class inherits from
* this class, then it is considered to be a temporary class as well, although
* this attribute need not be provided in such cases.
* MOZ_RAII: Applies to all classes. Any class with this annotation is assumed
* to be a RAII guard, which is expected to live on the stack in an automatic
* allocation. It is prohibited from being allocated in a temporary, static
* storage, or on the heap. This is a combination of MOZ_STACK_CLASS and
* MOZ_NON_TEMPORARY_CLASS.
* MOZ_ONLY_USED_TO_AVOID_STATIC_CONSTRUCTORS: Applies to all classes that are
* intended to prevent introducing static initializers. This attribute
* currently makes it a compile-time error to instantiate these classes
* anywhere other than at the global scope, or as a static member of a class.
* In non-debug mode, it also prohibits non-trivial constructors and
* destructors.
* MOZ_TRIVIAL_CTOR_DTOR: Applies to all classes that must have both a trivial
* or constexpr constructor and a trivial destructor. Setting this attribute
* on a class makes it a compile-time error for that class to get a
* non-trivial constructor or destructor for any reason.
* MOZ_ALLOW_TEMPORARY: Applies to constructors. This indicates that using the
* constructor is allowed in temporary expressions, if it would have otherwise
* been forbidden by the type being a MOZ_NON_TEMPORARY_CLASS. Useful for
* constructors like Maybe(Nothing).
* MOZ_HEAP_ALLOCATOR: Applies to any function. This indicates that the return
* value is allocated on the heap, and will as a result check such allocations
* during MOZ_STACK_CLASS and MOZ_NONHEAP_CLASS annotation checking.
* MOZ_IMPLICIT: Applies to constructors. Implicit conversion constructors
* are disallowed by default unless they are marked as MOZ_IMPLICIT. This
* attribute must be used for constructors which intend to provide implicit
* conversions.
* MOZ_IS_REFPTR: Applies to class declarations of ref pointer to mark them as
* such for use with static-analysis.
* A ref pointer is an object wrapping a pointer and automatically taking care
* of its refcounting upon construction/destruction/transfer of ownership.
* This annotation implies MOZ_IS_SMARTPTR_TO_REFCOUNTED.
* MOZ_IS_SMARTPTR_TO_REFCOUNTED: Applies to class declarations of smart
* pointers to ref counted classes to mark them as such for use with
* static-analysis.
* MOZ_NO_ARITHMETIC_EXPR_IN_ARGUMENT: Applies to functions. Makes it a compile
* time error to pass arithmetic expressions on variables to the function.
* MOZ_OWNING_REF: Applies to declarations of pointers to reference counted
* types. This attribute tells the compiler that the raw pointer is a strong
* reference, where ownership through methods such as AddRef and Release is
* managed manually. This can make the compiler ignore these pointers when
* validating the usage of pointers otherwise.
*
* Example uses include owned pointers inside of unions, and pointers stored
* in POD types where a using a smart pointer class would make the object
* non-POD.
* MOZ_NON_OWNING_REF: Applies to declarations of pointers to reference counted
* types. This attribute tells the compiler that the raw pointer is a weak
* reference, which is ensured to be valid by a guarantee that the reference
* will be nulled before the pointer becomes invalid. This can make the
* compiler ignore these pointers when validating the usage of pointers
* otherwise.
*
* Examples include an mOwner pointer, which is nulled by the owning class's
* destructor, and is null-checked before dereferencing.
* MOZ_UNSAFE_REF: Applies to declarations of pointers to reference counted
* types. Occasionally there are non-owning references which are valid, but
* do not take the form of a MOZ_NON_OWNING_REF. Their safety may be
* dependent on the behaviour of API consumers. The string argument passed
* to this macro documents the safety conditions. This can make the compiler
* ignore these pointers when validating the usage of pointers elsewhere.
*
* Examples include an nsAtom* member which is known at compile time to point
* to a static atom which is valid throughout the lifetime of the program, or
* an API which stores a pointer, but doesn't take ownership over it, instead
* requiring the API consumer to correctly null the value before it becomes
* invalid.
*
* Use of this annotation is discouraged when a strong reference or one of
* the above two annotations can be used instead.
* MOZ_NO_ADDREF_RELEASE_ON_RETURN: Applies to function declarations. Makes it
* a compile time error to call AddRef or Release on the return value of a
* function. This is intended to be used with operator->() of our smart
* pointer classes to ensure that the refcount of an object wrapped in a
* smart pointer is not manipulated directly.
* MOZ_NEEDS_NO_VTABLE_TYPE: Applies to template class declarations. Makes it
* a compile time error to instantiate this template with a type parameter
* which has a VTable.
* MOZ_NON_MEMMOVABLE: Applies to class declarations for types that are not safe
* to be moved in memory using memmove().
* MOZ_NEEDS_MEMMOVABLE_TYPE: Applies to template class declarations where the
* template arguments are required to be safe to move in memory using
* memmove(). Passing MOZ_NON_MEMMOVABLE types to these templates is a
* compile time error.
* MOZ_NEEDS_MEMMOVABLE_MEMBERS: Applies to class declarations where each member
* must be safe to move in memory using memmove(). MOZ_NON_MEMMOVABLE types
* used in members of these classes are compile time errors.
* MOZ_NO_DANGLING_ON_TEMPORARIES: Applies to method declarations which return
* a pointer that is freed when the destructor of the class is called. This
* prevents these methods from being called on temporaries of the class,
* reducing risks of use-after-free.
* This attribute cannot be applied to && methods.
* In some cases, adding a deleted &&-qualified overload is too restrictive as
* this method should still be callable as a non-escaping argument to another
* function. This annotation can be used in those cases.
* MOZ_INHERIT_TYPE_ANNOTATIONS_FROM_TEMPLATE_ARGS: Applies to template class
* declarations where an instance of the template should be considered, for
* static analysis purposes, to inherit any type annotations (such as
* MOZ_STACK_CLASS) from its template arguments.
* MOZ_INIT_OUTSIDE_CTOR: Applies to class member declarations. Occasionally
* there are class members that are not initialized in the constructor,
* but logic elsewhere in the class ensures they are initialized prior to use.
* Using this attribute on a member disables the check that this member must
* be initialized in constructors via list-initialization, in the constructor
* body, or via functions called from the constructor body.
* MOZ_IS_CLASS_INIT: Applies to class method declarations. Occasionally the
* constructor doesn't initialize all of the member variables and another
* function is used to initialize the rest. This marker is used to make the
* static analysis tool aware that the marked function is part of the
* initialization process and to include the marked function in the scan
* mechanism that determines which member variables still remain
* uninitialized.
* MOZ_NON_PARAM: Applies to types. Makes it compile time error to use the type
* in parameter without pointer or reference.
* MOZ_NON_AUTOABLE: Applies to class declarations. Makes it a compile time
* error to use `auto` in place of this type in variable declarations. This
* is intended to be used with types which are intended to be implicitly
* constructed into other other types before being assigned to variables.
* MOZ_REQUIRED_BASE_METHOD: Applies to virtual class method declarations.
* Sometimes derived classes override methods that need to be called by their
* overridden counterparts. This marker indicates that the marked method must
* be called by the method that it overrides.
* MOZ_MUST_RETURN_FROM_CALLER_IF_THIS_IS_ARG: Applies to method declarations.
* Callers of the annotated method must return from that function within the
* calling block using an explicit `return` statement if the "this" value for
* the call is a parameter of the caller. Only calls to Constructors,
* references to local and member variables, and calls to functions or
* methods marked as MOZ_MAY_CALL_AFTER_MUST_RETURN may be made after the
* MOZ_MUST_RETURN_FROM_CALLER_IF_THIS_IS_ARG call.
* MOZ_MAY_CALL_AFTER_MUST_RETURN: Applies to function or method declarations.
* Calls to these methods may be made in functions after calls a
* MOZ_MUST_RETURN_FROM_CALLER_IF_THIS_IS_ARG method.
* MOZ_UNANNOTATED/MOZ_ANNOTATED: Applies to Mutexes/Monitors and variations on
* them. MOZ_UNANNOTATED indicates that the Mutex/Monitor/etc hasn't been
* examined and annotated using macros from mfbt/ThreadSafety --
* MOZ_GUARDED_BY()/REQUIRES()/etc. MOZ_ANNOTATED is used in rare cases to
* indicate that is has been looked at, but it did not need any
* MOZ_GUARDED_BY()/REQUIRES()/etc (and thus static analysis knows it can
* ignore this Mutex/Monitor/etc)

// gcc emits a nuisance warning -Wignored-attributes because attributes do not

/**
* Printf style formats. MOZ_FORMAT_PRINTF and MOZ_FORMAT_WPRINTF can be used
* to annotate a function or method that is "printf/wprintf-like"; this will let
* (some) compilers check that the arguments match the template string.
*
* This macro takes two arguments. The first argument is the argument
* number of the template string. The second argument is the argument
* number of the '...' argument holding the arguments.
*
* Argument numbers start at 1. Note that the implicit "this"
* argument of a non-static member function counts as an argument.
*
* So, for a simple case like:
* void print_something (int whatever, const char *fmt, ...);
* The corresponding annotation would be
* MOZ_FORMAT_PRINTF(2, 3)
* However, if "print_something" were a non-static member function,
* then the annotation would be:
* MOZ_FORMAT_PRINTF(3, 4)
*
* The second argument should be 0 for vprintf-like functions; that
* is, those taking a va_list argument.
*
* Note that the checking is limited to standards-conforming
* printf-likes, and in particular this should not be used for
* PR_snprintf and friends, which are "printf-like" but which assign
* different meanings to the various formats.
*
* MinGW requires special handling due to different format specifiers
* on different platforms. The macro __MINGW_PRINTF_FORMAT maps to
* either gnu_printf or ms_printf depending on where we are compiling
* to avoid warnings on format specifiers that are legal.
*
* At time of writing MinGW has no wide equivalent to __MINGW_PRINTF_FORMAT;
* therefore __MINGW_WPRINTF_FORMAT has been implemented following the same
* pattern seen in MinGW's source.
