If the length of the source wide character string, passed in via the
"size_t n" parameter, is set to zero, the function should only return
the required length for the destination wide character string. In this
case, it should *not* attempt to write to the destination, so the "dst"
parameter is permitted to be NULL.
However, when the internally called _collate_wxfrm() function returns an
error, such as when using the "C" locale, as a fallback wcscpy(3) or
wcsncpy(3) are used. But if the input length is zero, wcsncpy(3) will
be called with a length of -1! If the "dst" parameter is NULL, this
will immediately result in a segfault, or if "dst" is a valid pointer,
it will most likely result in unexpectedly overwritten memory.
Fix this by explicitly checking for an input length greater than zero,
before calling wcsncpy(3).
Note that a similar situation does not occur in strxfrm(3), the plain
character version of this function, as it uses strlcpy(3) for the error
case. The strlcpy(3) function does not write to the destination if the
input length is zero.

Addition of the new errno values requires adding new elements to
sys_errlist array, which is actually ABI-incompatible, since ELF
records the object size. Expand array in advance to 150 elements so
that we have our users to go over the issue only once, at least until
more than 53 new errors are added.
I did not bumped the symbol version, same as it was not done for
previous increases of the array size. Runtime linker only copies as
much data into binary object on copy relocation as the binary'object
specifies. This is not fixable for binaries which access sys_errlist
directly.
While there, correct comment and calculation of the temporary buffer
size for the message printed for unknown error. The on-stack buffer
is used only for the number and delimiter since r108603.

In the DESCRIPTION, put the more commonly used functions first in the
corresponding sentence, to help catch the eye.
Pull out the note about overlapping buffers to its own paragraph, as it
applies to all routines documented by this page.
Emphasize the potentially surprising strncpy(3) behavior of zero-filling the
remainder of a buffer larger than the source string.
Encourage strlcpy use; remove portability note about strlcpy(3). Adapting a
strlcpy-using code base to a platform that does not provide strlcpy in libc
is so trivial as to not be worth mentioning. (Just copy strlcpy.c out of
any BSD libc, or include and link the pre-packaged libbsd library on non-BSD
platforms.)
Likewise, expand the page's warning about ease of potential misuse to cover
all functions documented herein, and explicitly suggest using strlcpy most
of the time. The text was mostly cribbed from a similar suggestion in
gets(3).
Finally, document the remaining valid use of strncpy -- the rare
fixed-length record with no expectation of nul-termination.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Add notes to each of these that specifically state that results are
undefined if the strings overlap. In the case of memcpy, we document
the overlapping behavior on FreeBSD (pre-existing). For str*, it is
left unspecified, however, since the default (and x86) implementations
do not handle overlapping strings properly.

abort_handler_s() currently simply calls abort(), though the standard
specifies more: "Writes an implementation-defined message to stderr
which must include the string pointed to by msg and calls abort()."
memset_s() is missing error condition "n > smax", and does not invoke
the constraint handler after filling the buffer: "following errors are
detected at runtime and call the currently installed constraint
handler function after storing ch in every location of the destination
range [dest, dest+destsz) if dest and destsz are themselves valid",
one of the errors is "n > smax" itself.

It is O(n) in the length of the haystack (big) string, and has special
cases for short needle (little) strings, of one to four bytes, to avoid
excessive overhead.
There are a small set of nearly trivial cases where the startup overhead
of the musl implementation makes it slightly slower -- for example, a 31
byte needle that matches the beginning of the haystack. It's faster for
non-trivial cases, and significantly so for inputs that trigger worst-
case behaviour of the previous implementation. As an example, in my
tests a 16K needle that matches the end of a 64K haystack is nearly
2000x faster with this implementation.

This reduces build output, need for recalculating paths, and makes it clearer
which paths are relative to what areas in the source tree. The change in
performance over a locally mounted UFS filesystem was negligible in my testing,
but this may more positively impact other filesystems like NFS.
LIBC_SRCTOP was left alone so Juniper (and other users) can continue to
manipulate lib/libc/Makefile (and other Makefile.inc's under lib/libc) as
include Makefiles with custom options.

Through testing, the user noted that some Cyrillic characters were not
sorting correctly, and this was confirmed.
After extensive testing and review, the localedef tool was eliminated
as the culprit. The sustitutions were encoded correctly in LC_COLLATE.
The error was mainly in wcscoll where character expansions were
mishandled. The main directive pass routines had to be written to
go back for a new collation value when the "state" variable was set.
Before pointers were being advanced, the second lookup was gettting
applied to the wrong character, etc.
The "eat expansion codes" section on collate.c also had a bug. Later
own, the "state" variable logic was changed to only set if next
code was greater than zero (rather than >= 0).
Some additional cleanups got captured from previous work:
1) The previous commit moved the binary search comment from the
correct location to a wrong location because it's wrong upstream
in Illumos. The comment has little value so I just removed it.
2) Don't check if pointers are null before freeing, this is
redundant as free() handles null pointers.
3) The two binary search trees were standardized wrt initialization
4) On the binary search trees, a negative "high" exits rather than
checking the table count again.

packed LC_COLLATE binary formats. These were generated with the colldef
tool, but the new LC_COLLATE files are going to be generated by the new
localedef tool using CLDR POSIX files as input. The BSD-flavored
version of localedef identifies the format as "BSD 1.0". Any
LC_COLLATE file with a different version will simply not be loaded, and
all LC* categories will get set to "C" (aka "POSIX") locale.
This work is based off of Nexenta's contribution to Illumos.
The integration with xlocale is John Marino's work for Dragonfly.
The following commits will enable localedef tool, disable the colldef
tool, add generated colldef directory, and finally remove colldef from
base.
The only difference with Dragonfly are:
- a few fixes to build with clang
- And identification of the flavor as "BSD 1.0" instead of "Dragonfly 4.4"
