When a Vector of Vectors gets resized the 'this' pointer of the Vectors
change. This means that the VectorWriteProxy _parent references get
invalidated. Thanks a lot to @ibrahn for finding the root cause of this.
To fix this we now create a pointer to CowData in Vector (which won't
change when the vectors move) and pass that to the write proxy also.
This fixes#20475
Sorry for the history pollution. I was testing something on this branch
and forgot to reset befor pushing the security update.
This reverts commit 2ef66def46.
Yesterday, when playing around with my network code, I realized there is
a security issue in decode_variant, at least when decoding PoolArrays.
Basically, the size of the PoolArray is encoded in a uint32_t, when
decoding it, that value is cast to int when comparing if the packet is
actually that size causing numbers with MSB=1 to be interpreted as
negative thus always passing the check. That same value though, is used
as uint32_t again to resize the output vector. For this reason, sending
a malformed packet with declared type PoolByteArray and size of 2^31(+x)
causes the engine to try to allocate 2+GB of pool memory, causing the
engine to crash.
(cherry picked from commit 5262d1bbcc)
- Refactored all builder (make_*) functions into separate Python modules along to the build tree
- Introduced utility function to wrap all invocations on Windows, but does not change it elsewhere
- Introduced stub to use the builders module as a stand alone script and invoke a selected function
There is a problem with file handles related to writing generated content (*.gen.h and *.gen.cpp)
on Windows, which randomly causes a SHARING VIOLATION error to the compiler resulting in flaky
builds. Running all such content generators in a new subprocess instead of directly inside the
build script works around the issue.
Yes, I tried the multiprocessing module. It did not work due to conflict with SCons on cPickle.
Suggested workaround did not fully work either.
Using the run_in_subprocess wrapper on osx and x11 platforms as well for consistency. In case of
running a cross-compilation on Windows they would still be used, but likely it will not happen
in practice. What counts is that the build itself is running on which platform, not the target
platform.
Some generated files are written directly in an SConstruct or SCsub file, before the parallel build starts. They don't need to be written in a subprocess, apparently, so I left them as is.
For debug purposes the boolean whether the recording is active or not were an editor property.
It has been removed to avoid users leaving it on true on close, causing it to be saved in the default_bus_layout
It was also renamed to better describe its functionality
