libprop is currently using a recursive parser. While this is fine for
userland, deeply nested arrays and dictionaries can easily overflow
the kernel stack and thereby force a panic.

Fix the internalizer and prop_object_release to use a separate call
stack and alter the dictionary and array handling to not recurse on
the C stack. The default stack has an inline depth of 16 elements,
which should keep the overhead reasonable.

This issue was found by Pavel Cahyna and Jachym Holecek.

Additionally add a limit for prop_object_copyin_ioctl to prevent user
programs from temporary allocating unbound amount of kernel memory.
Allow malloc to fail so that tight loops of userland processes can't
force panics by exhausting the kernel map.

Tested with the sample exploit of Jachym, his test suite and reviewed
by himself (initial patch), Christos Zoulas and Jason Thorpe.

- Add prop_dictionary_all_keys(). Takes a snapshot of a dictionary's
keys and returns them in an array. This effectively allows a caller
to mutate a dictionary while iterating over it (really, you iterate
over the array of keys instead of the dictionary itself).
- Add a slew of utility functions that make it more convenient (in some
circumstances, anyway) to get/set values in a dictionary.

1.4 09-Sep-2006 thorpej

Adapt Matt Thomas's red-black tree implementation for use in proplib. This
has a significant code size savings over <sys/tree.h>.

Also change prop_number_t to store all number objects in an r-b tree,
only ever allocating one object for any given number (we can do this
because numbers are immutable). This results in significant run-time
memory savings.

Several changes to proplib:
- Arrays can now be externalized and internalized in the same way
dictionaries can.
- Add new "externalize to file" and "internalize from file" functions
to make reading a property list from a file and writing a property
list to a file more convenient.
- Many assertions in the object implementations are gone. Instead,
calling an accessor for one object type with a different object type
as an argument will return a suitable "invalid" value.
- prop_object_type() now returns a new PROP_TYPE_UNKNOWN value if called
with a NULL object.
- Externalized property lists now contain a reference to the Apple XML
plist DTD.
- Add a new prop_ingest(3) facility, which provides a convenient way to
translate a dictionary into an arbitrary binary representation.

Improvements to the problib(3) API:

==> Provide a much more complete set of setters and getters for different
value types in the prop_array_util(3) and prop_dictionary_util(3)
functions.

==> Overhaul the prop_data(3), prop_number(3), and prop_string(3) APIs
to be easier to use and less awkwardly named, Deprecate the old
awkward names, and produce link-time warnings when they are referenced.

==> Deprecate mutable prop_data(3) and prop_string(3) objects. The old
APIs that support them still exist, but will now produce link-time
warnings when used.

==> When the new prop_string(3) API is used, strings are internally
de-duplicated as a memory footprint optimization.

==> Provide a rich set of bounds-checked gettter functions in and a
corresponding set of convenience setters in the prop_number(3) API.

==> Add a new prop_bool_value(3) function that is equivalent to
prop_bool_true(3), but aligned with the new "value" routines in
prop_data(3), prop_string(3), and prop_number(3).

Use .Fn to refer a function name instead of Nm.
Also, use Xr to refer problib(3) in the HISTORY section instead of Nm.

While parsing the man pages, any .Nm occurrence gets replaced by the
value specified in the NAME section. Referencing individual function
names with .Nm was causing makemandb(8) to replicate the complete
NAME section for every such occurrence. This was leading to an
ugly looking snippet in apropos(1)'s output when searched for
any of these man pages.

Fix an implementation inconsistency with the prop_*_send_syscall() and
prop_*_recv_syscall() functions from proplib(3). They now share the
same logic as the one from prop_*_send_ioctl() functions:
- returns an int
- 0 indicates "no error", otherwise returns the error number (and
set errno)

Many consumers of the prop_*_{ioctl, syscall} expect errno to be set
on error and use err() to display the error message. As such, ensures that
errno gets set before returning from these functions.

prop_*_send_syscall() functions returned a boolean, and now return an int.
Fix all call sites to use the new paradigm (only quota2 is affected in src).

As the prop_*_{send,recv}_syscall() API appeared in -current and is only
used by the recent quota2 code, I am not bumping the lib. The API change
only affects the prop_*_send_syscall() function (recv_syscall()s were
already used correctly), so ensure you are not mixing "old" -current
quota binaries with a new proplib(3) (or the other way around). This
change will be announced via a HEADS-UP and UPDATING.

Does not affect the kernel part of proplib.

Document the correct API in prop_array(3) and prop_dictionary(3).

Thanks to Francois Tigeot for noticing the API inconsistency and
reporting it on tech-kern@.

ok bouyer@.

1.19 03-Aug-2008 thorpej

Fix an issue introduced with the prop_stack change: It's not a good idea to
return a 3-value enum from a function declared to return bool. This broke
the recurse case for prop_object_equals(). Instead, declare the object type
equals routine to return a _prop_object_equals_rv_t.

Give the same treatment to the object type free routines: declare them to
return a _prop_object_free_rv_t, and consistently check those return values
againt the enum type.

Tidy up some whitespace while we're here.

1.15 07-May-2008 tron

Replace _prop_rwlock_tryrdlock() by a macro _PROP_RWLOCK_TRYRDLOCK().
This avoids build failures in stand alone binaries (e.g. bootloaders)
where there is no "pa_rwlock" member in the "_prop_array" structure.


1.14 06-May-2008 xtraeme

prop_object_iterator_next() and prop_object_iterator_reset() were
acquiring the rwlock recursively in some paths.

Introduce _prop_rwlock_tryrdlock() and use it in these functions, so
that the rwlock is *always* acquired once, while here add some
_PROP_RWLOCK_OWNED asserts to verify.

This definitely fixes the "locking against myself" panics.


1.13 06-May-2008 xtraeme

Do not acquire the rwlock recursively in prop_{array,dictionary}_iterator_reset()
when prop_{array,dictionary}_copyout_ioctl() is called.

Introduce _PROP_RWLOCK_OWNED() which is a KASSERT(rw_lock_held(lock))
and use it in those two functions, also acquire the rwlock in other
places where it is required now.

This fixes a LOCKDEBUG panic "locking against myself", as reported by
Geoff C. Wing in current-users@.

Avoid using unbound amount of stack frames in prop_object_equal

libprop is currently using a recursive parser. While this is fine for
userland, deeply nested arrays and dictionaries can easily overflow
the kernel stack and thereby force a panic.

Fix the internalizer and prop_object_release to use a separate call
stack and alter the dictionary and array handling to not recurse on
the C stack. The default stack has an inline depth of 16 elements,
which should keep the overhead reasonable.

This issue was found by Pavel Cahyna and Jachym Holecek.

Additionally add a limit for prop_object_copyin_ioctl to prevent user
programs from temporary allocating unbound amount of kernel memory.
Allow malloc to fail so that tight loops of userland processes can't
force panics by exhausting the kernel map.

Tested with the sample exploit of Jachym, his test suite and reviewed
by himself (initial patch), Christos Zoulas and Jason Thorpe.

Several changes to proplib:
- Arrays can now be externalized and internalized in the same way
dictionaries can.
- Add new "externalize to file" and "internalize from file" functions
to make reading a property list from a file and writing a property
list to a file more convenient.
- Many assertions in the object implementations are gone. Instead,
calling an accessor for one object type with a different object type
as an argument will return a suitable "invalid" value.
- prop_object_type() now returns a new PROP_TYPE_UNKNOWN value if called
with a NULL object.
- Externalized property lists now contain a reference to the Apple XML
plist DTD.
- Add a new prop_ingest(3) facility, which provides a convenient way to
translate a dictionary into an arbitrary binary representation.

Add a new libquota library, which contains some blocks to build and/or

for a single id from a single filesystem (whatever filesystem this is:
a local quota-enabled fs or NFS). This is build on functions getufsquota()
(for local filesystems with UFS-like quotas) and getnfsquota();
which are also available to userland programs.
move functions from quota2_subr.c to libquota or libprop as appropriate,
and ajust in-tree quota tools.
move some declarations from kernel headers to either sys/quota.h or
quota/quota.h as appropriate. ufs/ufs/quota.h still installed because
it's needed by other installed ufs headers.
ufs/ufs/quota1.h still installed as a quick&dirty way to get a code
using the old quotactl() to compile (just include ufs/ufs/quota1.h instead of
ufs/ufs/quota.h - old code won't compile without this change and this is
on purpose).

Add a new libquota library, which contains some blocks to build and/or
parse quota plists; as well as a getfsquota() function to retrieve quotas
for a single id from a single filesystem (whatever filesystem this is:
a local quota-enabled fs or NFS). This is build on functions getufsquota()
(for local filesystems with UFS-like quotas) and getnfsquota();
which are also available to userland programs.
move functions from quota2_subr.c to libquota or libprop as appropriate,
and ajust in-tree quota tools.
move some declarations from kernel headers to either sys/quota.h or
quota/quota.h as appropriate. ufs/ufs/quota.h still installed because
it's needed by other installed ufs headers.
ufs/ufs/quota1.h still installed as a quick&dirty way to get a code
using the old quotactl() to compile (just include ufs/ufs/quota1.h instead of
ufs/ufs/quota.h - old code won't compile without this change and this is
on purpose).
Discussed on tech-kern@ and tech-net@ (long thread, but not much about
libquota itself ...)

Improvements to the problib(3) API:

==> Provide a much more complete set of setters and getters for different
value types in the prop_array_util(3) and prop_dictionary_util(3)
functions.

==> Overhaul the prop_data(3), prop_number(3), and prop_string(3) APIs
to be easier to use and less awkwardly named, Deprecate the old
awkward names, and produce link-time warnings when they are referenced.

==> Deprecate mutable prop_data(3) and prop_string(3) objects. The old
APIs that support them still exist, but will now produce link-time
warnings when used.

==> When the new prop_string(3) API is used, strings are internally
de-duplicated as a memory footprint optimization.

==> Provide a rich set of bounds-checked gettter functions in and a
corresponding set of convenience setters in the prop_number(3) API.

==> Add a new prop_bool_value(3) function that is equivalent to
prop_bool_true(3), but aligned with the new "value" routines in
prop_data(3), prop_string(3), and prop_number(3).

Use .Fn to refer a function name instead of Nm.
Also, use Xr to refer problib(3) in the HISTORY section instead of Nm.

While parsing the man pages, any .Nm occurrence gets replaced by the
value specified in the NAME section. Referencing individual function
names with .Nm was causing makemandb(8) to replicate the complete
NAME section for every such occurrence. This was leading to an
ugly looking snippet in apropos(1)'s output when searched for
any of these man pages.

Add support for serializing to, and de-serializing from, JSON, as

and can be specified explicitly for output. The default format remains
XML.

As part of this change, generic prop_object_{internalize,externalize}()
functions are provided, and the "_with_format" flavor allows the output
format to be specified. Previous array- and dictionary-specific routines
remain for backwards compatibility.

Fix building libprop as a host tool library on platforms that don't have
the Matt Thomas rbtree:

- Include rb.c in libnbcompat, and provide a nbcompat sys/rbtree.h
header.
- Make sure libprop's source file include prop_object_impl.h before
anything else, and pull in nbtool_config.h from there.

Tested by simulating such a host system by renaming the host's
<sys/rbtree.h> out of the way (which reproduced the build failure)
and verifying that the host-tool installboot contained the rb_*
functions in its own .text segment.

Fix an issue introduced with the prop_stack change: It's not a good idea to
return a 3-value enum from a function declared to return bool. This broke
the recurse case for prop_object_equals(). Instead, declare the object type
equals routine to return a _prop_object_equals_rv_t.

Give the same treatment to the object type free routines: declare them to
return a _prop_object_free_rv_t, and consistently check those return values
againt the enum type.

Tidy up some whitespace while we're here.

Avoid using unbound amount of stack frames in prop_object_equal
by using a dynamic stack as well. Reorder arguments for the internalizer
as the iteration is always present and should go before possibly
NULL arguments.

libprop is currently using a recursive parser. While this is fine for
userland, deeply nested arrays and dictionaries can easily overflow
the kernel stack and thereby force a panic.

Fix the internalizer and prop_object_release to use a separate call
stack and alter the dictionary and array handling to not recurse on
the C stack. The default stack has an inline depth of 16 elements,
which should keep the overhead reasonable.

This issue was found by Pavel Cahyna and Jachym Holecek.

Additionally add a limit for prop_object_copyin_ioctl to prevent user
programs from temporary allocating unbound amount of kernel memory.
Allow malloc to fail so that tight loops of userland processes can't
force panics by exhausting the kernel map.

Tested with the sample exploit of Jachym, his test suite and reviewed
by himself (initial patch), Christos Zoulas and Jason Thorpe.

- Add a reader-writer lock to array and dictionary objects that ensures that
the data structure is internally consistent in the face of multiple threads
accessing it concurrently. This is not designed to provide application-
level semantic consistency; applications are responsible for that locking
protocol should it be necessary.

Also guard object accessors against NULL (like we do foreign object types)
so that apps can use this construct safely:

obj = prop_dictionary_get(dict, "value");

1.4 21-Aug-2006 thorpej

Several changes to proplib:
- Arrays can now be externalized and internalized in the same way
dictionaries can.
- Add new "externalize to file" and "internalize from file" functions
to make reading a property list from a file and writing a property
list to a file more convenient.
- Many assertions in the object implementations are gone. Instead,
calling an accessor for one object type with a different object type
as an argument will return a suitable "invalid" value.
- prop_object_type() now returns a new PROP_TYPE_UNKNOWN value if called
with a NULL object.
- Externalized property lists now contain a reference to the Apple XML
plist DTD.
- Add a new prop_ingest(3) facility, which provides a convenient way to
translate a dictionary into an arbitrary binary representation.

Add support for serializing to, and de-serializing from, JSON, as
specified in RFC 8259. Format is automatically detected for input,
and can be specified explicitly for output. The default format remains
XML.

As part of this change, generic prop_object_{internalize,externalize}()
functions are provided, and the "_with_format" flavor allows the output
format to be specified. Previous array- and dictionary-specific routines
remain for backwards compatibility.

Improvements to the problib(3) API:

==> Provide a much more complete set of setters and getters for different

functions.

==> Overhaul the prop_data(3), prop_number(3), and prop_string(3) APIs

awkward names, and produce link-time warnings when they are referenced.

==> Deprecate mutable prop_data(3) and prop_string(3) objects. The old
APIs that support them still exist, but will now produce link-time
warnings when used.

==> When the new prop_string(3) API is used, strings are internally
de-duplicated as a memory footprint optimization.

==> Provide a rich set of bounds-checked gettter functions in and a
corresponding set of convenience setters in the prop_number(3) API.

==> Add a new prop_bool_value(3) function that is equivalent to
prop_bool_true(3), but aligned with the new "value" routines in
prop_data(3), prop_string(3), and prop_number(3).

Fix building libprop as a host tool library on platforms that don't have
the Matt Thomas rbtree:

- Include rb.c in libnbcompat, and provide a nbcompat sys/rbtree.h
header.
- Make sure libprop's source file include prop_object_impl.h before
anything else, and pull in nbtool_config.h from there.

Tested by simulating such a host system by renaming the host's
<sys/rbtree.h> out of the way (which reproduced the build failure)
and verifying that the host-tool installboot contained the rb_*
functions in its own .text segment.

Fix an issue introduced with the prop_stack change: It's not a good idea to
return a 3-value enum from a function declared to return bool. This broke
the recurse case for prop_object_equals(). Instead, declare the object type
equals routine to return a _prop_object_equals_rv_t.

Give the same treatment to the object type free routines: declare them to
return a _prop_object_free_rv_t, and consistently check those return values
againt the enum type.

Avoid using unbound amount of stack frames in prop_object_equal
by using a dynamic stack as well. Reorder arguments for the internalizer
as the iteration is always present and should go before possibly
NULL arguments.

libprop is currently using a recursive parser. While this is fine for
userland, deeply nested arrays and dictionaries can easily overflow
the kernel stack and thereby force a panic.

Fix the internalizer and prop_object_release to use a separate call
stack and alter the dictionary and array handling to not recurse on
the C stack. The default stack has an inline depth of 16 elements,
which should keep the overhead reasonable.

This issue was found by Pavel Cahyna and Jachym Holecek.

Additionally add a limit for prop_object_copyin_ioctl to prevent user
programs from temporary allocating unbound amount of kernel memory.
Allow malloc to fail so that tight loops of userland processes can't
force panics by exhausting the kernel map.

Tested with the sample exploit of Jachym, his test suite and reviewed
by himself (initial patch), Christos Zoulas and Jason Thorpe.

1.3 21-Aug-2006 thorpej

Several changes to proplib:
- Arrays can now be externalized and internalized in the same way
dictionaries can.
- Add new "externalize to file" and "internalize from file" functions
to make reading a property list from a file and writing a property
list to a file more convenient.
- Many assertions in the object implementations are gone. Instead,
calling an accessor for one object type with a different object type
as an argument will return a suitable "invalid" value.
- prop_object_type() now returns a new PROP_TYPE_UNKNOWN value if called
with a NULL object.
- Externalized property lists now contain a reference to the Apple XML
plist DTD.
- Add a new prop_ingest(3) facility, which provides a convenient way to
translate a dictionary into an arbitrary binary representation.

Fix an implementation inconsistency with the prop_*_send_syscall() and
prop_*_recv_syscall() functions from proplib(3). They now share the
same logic as the one from prop_*_send_ioctl() functions:
- returns an int
- 0 indicates "no error", otherwise returns the error number (and
set errno)

Many consumers of the prop_*_{ioctl, syscall} expect errno to be set
on error and use err() to display the error message. As such, ensures that
errno gets set before returning from these functions.

prop_*_send_syscall() functions returned a boolean, and now return an int.
Fix all call sites to use the new paradigm (only quota2 is affected in src).

As the prop_*_{send,recv}_syscall() API appeared in -current and is only
used by the recent quota2 code, I am not bumping the lib. The API change
only affects the prop_*_send_syscall() function (recv_syscall()s were
already used correctly), so ensure you are not mixing "old" -current
quota binaries with a new proplib(3) (or the other way around). This
change will be announced via a HEADS-UP and UPDATING.

Does not affect the kernel part of proplib.

Document the correct API in prop_array(3) and prop_dictionary(3).

Thanks to Francois Tigeot for noticing the API inconsistency and
reporting it on tech-kern@.

Improvements to the problib(3) API:

==> Provide a much more complete set of setters and getters for different
value types in the prop_array_util(3) and prop_dictionary_util(3)
functions.

==> Overhaul the prop_data(3), prop_number(3), and prop_string(3) APIs
to be easier to use and less awkwardly named, Deprecate the old
awkward names, and produce link-time warnings when they are referenced.

==> Deprecate mutable prop_data(3) and prop_string(3) objects. The old
APIs that support them still exist, but will now produce link-time
warnings when used.

==> When the new prop_string(3) API is used, strings are internally
de-duplicated as a memory footprint optimization.

==> Provide a rich set of bounds-checked gettter functions in and a
corresponding set of convenience setters in the prop_number(3) API.

==> Add a new prop_bool_value(3) function that is equivalent to
prop_bool_true(3), but aligned with the new "value" routines in
prop_data(3), prop_string(3), and prop_number(3).

Fix an issue introduced with the prop_stack change: It's not a good idea to

the recurse case for prop_object_equals(). Instead, declare the object type
equals routine to return a _prop_object_equals_rv_t.

Give the same treatment to the object type free routines: declare them to
return a _prop_object_free_rv_t, and consistently check those return values
againt the enum type.

libprop is currently using a recursive parser. While this is fine for
userland, deeply nested arrays and dictionaries can easily overflow
the kernel stack and thereby force a panic.

Fix the internalizer and prop_object_release to use a separate call
stack and alter the dictionary and array handling to not recurse on
the C stack. The default stack has an inline depth of 16 elements,
which should keep the overhead reasonable.

This issue was found by Pavel Cahyna and Jachym Holecek.

Additionally add a limit for prop_object_copyin_ioctl to prevent user
programs from temporary allocating unbound amount of kernel memory.
Allow malloc to fail so that tight loops of userland processes can't
force panics by exhausting the kernel map.

Tested with the sample exploit of Jachym, his test suite and reviewed
by himself (initial patch), Christos Zoulas and Jason Thorpe.

Add prop_array_t support to prop_kern.


Revision tags: yamt-splraiseipl-base2
1.4 22-Sep-2006 thorpej

Alter the protocol impemented by prop_kern to allow for bi-directional
plist-based messages and to eliminate looping previously required to
receive a plist from the kernel:

- prop_dictionary_copyin_ioctl() and prop_dictionary_copyout_ioctl()
now take the cmd argument rather than the file open flag. The
read-ness or write-ness of an ioctl command is checked by these
routines to ensure that information is being passed to/from the
userland component properly.

- prop_dictionary_copyout_ioctl() now allocates the memory for the
XML plist on behalf of the userland component by way of uvm_mmap().
The XML plist is copied out to the newly-mapped anonymous region,
and the pointer returned via the plistref.

- prop_dictionary_recv_ioctl() is responsible for munmap()'ing the
region after parsing the XML plist into internal represenatation.

- A new prop_dictionary_sendrecv_ioctl() is added, allowing user space
code to send a dictionary to the kernel and receive one back as a
reply.


Update users of prop_kern for the API changes (Bluetooth).

This constitutes an ABI / protocol change -- but this will also be put
into NetBSD 4.0 so that the first proplib release will implement the new
scheme.

Improvements to the problib(3) API:

==> Provide a much more complete set of setters and getters for different
value types in the prop_array_util(3) and prop_dictionary_util(3)
functions.

==> Overhaul the prop_data(3), prop_number(3), and prop_string(3) APIs
to be easier to use and less awkwardly named, Deprecate the old
awkward names, and produce link-time warnings when they are referenced.

==> Deprecate mutable prop_data(3) and prop_string(3) objects. The old
APIs that support them still exist, but will now produce link-time
warnings when used.

==> When the new prop_string(3) API is used, strings are internally
de-duplicated as a memory footprint optimization.

==> Provide a rich set of bounds-checked gettter functions in and a
corresponding set of convenience setters in the prop_number(3) API.

==> Add a new prop_bool_value(3) function that is equivalent to
prop_bool_true(3), but aligned with the new "value" routines in
prop_data(3), prop_string(3), and prop_number(3).

Use .Fn to refer a function name instead of Nm.
Also, use Xr to refer problib(3) in the HISTORY section instead of Nm.

While parsing the man pages, any .Nm occurrence gets replaced by the
value specified in the NAME section. Referencing individual function
names with .Nm was causing makemandb(8) to replicate the complete
NAME section for every such occurrence. This was leading to an
ugly looking snippet in apropos(1)'s output when searched for
any of these man pages.

Add a new libquota library, which contains some blocks to build and/or
parse quota plists; as well as a getfsquota() function to retrieve quotas
for a single id from a single filesystem (whatever filesystem this is:
a local quota-enabled fs or NFS). This is build on functions getufsquota()
(for local filesystems with UFS-like quotas) and getnfsquota();
which are also available to userland programs.
move functions from quota2_subr.c to libquota or libprop as appropriate,
and ajust in-tree quota tools.
move some declarations from kernel headers to either sys/quota.h or
quota/quota.h as appropriate. ufs/ufs/quota.h still installed because
it's needed by other installed ufs headers.
ufs/ufs/quota1.h still installed as a quick&dirty way to get a code
using the old quotactl() to compile (just include ufs/ufs/quota1.h instead of
ufs/ufs/quota.h - old code won't compile without this change and this is
on purpose).
Discussed on tech-kern@ and tech-net@ (long thread, but not much about
libquota itself ...)

- Add prop_dictionary_all_keys(). Takes a snapshot of a dictionary's
keys and returns them in an array. This effectively allows a caller
to mutate a dictionary while iterating over it (really, you iterate
over the array of keys instead of the dictionary itself).
- Add a slew of utility functions that make it more convenient (in some
circumstances, anyway) to get/set values in a dictionary.

branches: 1.4.4;
Add a new libquota library, which contains some blocks to build and/or
parse quota plists; as well as a getfsquota() function to retrieve quotas
for a single id from a single filesystem (whatever filesystem this is:
a local quota-enabled fs or NFS). This is build on functions getufsquota()
(for local filesystems with UFS-like quotas) and getnfsquota();
which are also available to userland programs.
move functions from quota2_subr.c to libquota or libprop as appropriate,
and ajust in-tree quota tools.
move some declarations from kernel headers to either sys/quota.h or
quota/quota.h as appropriate. ufs/ufs/quota.h still installed because
it's needed by other installed ufs headers.
ufs/ufs/quota1.h still installed as a quick&dirty way to get a code
using the old quotactl() to compile (just include ufs/ufs/quota1.h instead of
ufs/ufs/quota.h - old code won't compile without this change and this is
on purpose).
Discussed on tech-kern@ and tech-net@ (long thread, but not much about
libquota itself ...)

- Add prop_dictionary_all_keys(). Takes a snapshot of a dictionary's
keys and returns them in an array. This effectively allows a caller
to mutate a dictionary while iterating over it (really, you iterate
over the array of keys instead of the dictionary itself).
- Add a slew of utility functions that make it more convenient (in some
circumstances, anyway) to get/set values in a dictionary.

Add entry for prop_ingest in the NAME section.


1.7 12-Feb-2017 abhinav

Use .Fn to refer a function name instead of Nm.
Also, use Xr to refer problib(3) in the HISTORY section instead of Nm.

While parsing the man pages, any .Nm occurrence gets replaced by the
value specified in the NAME section. Referencing individual function
names with .Nm was causing makemandb(8) to replicate the complete
NAME section for every such occurrence. This was leading to an
ugly looking snippet in apropos(1)'s output when searched for
any of these man pages.

1.1 21-Aug-2006 thorpej

Several changes to proplib:
- Arrays can now be externalized and internalized in the same way
dictionaries can.
- Add new "externalize to file" and "internalize from file" functions
to make reading a property list from a file and writing a property
list to a file more convenient.
- Many assertions in the object implementations are gone. Instead,
calling an accessor for one object type with a different object type
as an argument will return a suitable "invalid" value.
- prop_object_type() now returns a new PROP_TYPE_UNKNOWN value if called
with a NULL object.
- Externalized property lists now contain a reference to the Apple XML
plist DTD.
- Add a new prop_ingest(3) facility, which provides a convenient way to
translate a dictionary into an arbitrary binary representation.

branches: 1.1.2; 1.1.6; 1.1.14;
Several changes to proplib:
- Arrays can now be externalized and internalized in the same way
dictionaries can.
- Add new "externalize to file" and "internalize from file" functions
to make reading a property list from a file and writing a property
list to a file more convenient.
- Many assertions in the object implementations are gone. Instead,
calling an accessor for one object type with a different object type
as an argument will return a suitable "invalid" value.
- prop_object_type() now returns a new PROP_TYPE_UNKNOWN value if called
with a NULL object.
- Externalized property lists now contain a reference to the Apple XML
plist DTD.
- Add a new prop_ingest(3) facility, which provides a convenient way to
translate a dictionary into an arbitrary binary representation.

Undo the last change (rev 1.29) and instead elide the entire contents
of this file if HAVE_NBTOOL_CONFIG_H is defined -- what happens in this
file is only the business of the target system and of no interest to
build tools, regardless of which OS those tools run upon.


1.29 27-Apr-2025 kre

Fix builds on NetBSD hosts.

Do not #include prop_object_impl.h in tools or _STANDALONE
builds, it (directly or indirectly) brings in far too much
that is inappropriate in those environments.

If its sole reason for being added was for the fallback
definition of _PROP_EXPORT then in those cases, simply
supply that here.

This is most probably not the most elegant of fixes, and a
better way of supplying that fallback definition than dumping
it in the middle of prop_object_impl.h should be found.

Someone else's problem - but DO test any alternative version
of this with a complete clean build on a NetBSD host before
committing. And note, that since prop_object_impl.h includes
nbtool_config.h, when appropriate, it MUST be included before
any other system include file (but that change alone is not
sufficient to fix things, so do it this way instead).

This should unbreak all (well, all the previously unbroken)
builds on NetBSD hosts.

1.27 23-Apr-2025 thorpej

Add support for serializing to, and de-serializing from, JSON, as
specified in RFC 8259. Format is automatically detected for input,
and can be specified explicitly for output. The default format remains
XML.

As part of this change, generic prop_object_{internalize,externalize}()
functions are provided, and the "_with_format" flavor allows the output
format to be specified. Previous array- and dictionary-specific routines
remain for backwards compatibility.

Fix an implementation inconsistency with the prop_*_send_syscall() and
prop_*_recv_syscall() functions from proplib(3). They now share the
same logic as the one from prop_*_send_ioctl() functions:
- returns an int
- 0 indicates "no error", otherwise returns the error number (and
set errno)

Many consumers of the prop_*_{ioctl, syscall} expect errno to be set
on error and use err() to display the error message. As such, ensures that
errno gets set before returning from these functions.

prop_*_send_syscall() functions returned a boolean, and now return an int.
Fix all call sites to use the new paradigm (only quota2 is affected in src).

As the prop_*_{send,recv}_syscall() API appeared in -current and is only
used by the recent quota2 code, I am not bumping the lib. The API change
only affects the prop_*_send_syscall() function (recv_syscall()s were
already used correctly), so ensure you are not mixing "old" -current
quota binaries with a new proplib(3) (or the other way around). This
change will be announced via a HEADS-UP and UPDATING.

Does not affect the kernel part of proplib.

Document the correct API in prop_array(3) and prop_dictionary(3).

Thanks to Francois Tigeot for noticing the API inconsistency and
reporting it on tech-kern@.

Wipe out the last vestiges of POOL_INIT with one swift stroke. In
most cases, use a proper constructor. For proplib, give a local
equivalent of POOL_INIT for the kernel object implementation. This
way the code structure can be preserved, and a local link set is
not hazardous anyway (unless proplib is split to several modules,
but that'll be the day).

libprop is currently using a recursive parser. While this is fine for
userland, deeply nested arrays and dictionaries can easily overflow
the kernel stack and thereby force a panic.

Fix the internalizer and prop_object_release to use a separate call
stack and alter the dictionary and array handling to not recurse on
the C stack. The default stack has an inline depth of 16 elements,
which should keep the overhead reasonable.

This issue was found by Pavel Cahyna and Jachym Holecek.

Additionally add a limit for prop_object_copyin_ioctl to prevent user
programs from temporary allocating unbound amount of kernel memory.
Allow malloc to fail so that tight loops of userland processes can't
force panics by exhausting the kernel map.

Tested with the sample exploit of Jachym, his test suite and reviewed
by himself (initial patch), Christos Zoulas and Jason Thorpe.

Add a comment to explain how the value for uaddr is chosen. Maybe uvm_mmap

1.6 28-Nov-2006 cube

In _prop_object_copyout_ioctl, uaddr was not initialised, although it is
used by uvm_mmap() as a hint for the virtual address to map memory to. As
a consequence, it tended to fail a lot on some architectures.

We cannot use 0, so instead use the value that would have been used if we
were calling mmap(2) with 0 as the first argument.

1.2 22-Sep-2006 thorpej

Alter the protocol impemented by prop_kern to allow for bi-directional
plist-based messages and to eliminate looping previously required to
receive a plist from the kernel:

- prop_dictionary_copyin_ioctl() and prop_dictionary_copyout_ioctl()
now take the cmd argument rather than the file open flag. The
read-ness or write-ness of an ioctl command is checked by these
routines to ensure that information is being passed to/from the
userland component properly.

- prop_dictionary_copyout_ioctl() now allocates the memory for the
XML plist on behalf of the userland component by way of uvm_mmap().
The XML plist is copied out to the newly-mapped anonymous region,
and the pointer returned via the plistref.

- prop_dictionary_recv_ioctl() is responsible for munmap()'ing the
region after parsing the XML plist into internal represenatation.

- A new prop_dictionary_sendrecv_ioctl() is added, allowing user space
code to send a dictionary to the kernel and receive one back as a
reply.


Update users of prop_kern for the API changes (Bluetooth).

This constitutes an ABI / protocol change -- but this will also be put
into NetBSD 4.0 so that the first proplib release will implement the new
scheme.

Improvements to the problib(3) API:

==> Provide a much more complete set of setters and getters for different
value types in the prop_array_util(3) and prop_dictionary_util(3)
functions.

==> Overhaul the prop_data(3), prop_number(3), and prop_string(3) APIs
to be easier to use and less awkwardly named, Deprecate the old
awkward names, and produce link-time warnings when they are referenced.

==> Deprecate mutable prop_data(3) and prop_string(3) objects. The old
APIs that support them still exist, but will now produce link-time
warnings when used.

==> When the new prop_string(3) API is used, strings are internally
de-duplicated as a memory footprint optimization.

==> Provide a rich set of bounds-checked gettter functions in and a
corresponding set of convenience setters in the prop_number(3) API.

==> Add a new prop_bool_value(3) function that is equivalent to
prop_bool_true(3), but aligned with the new "value" routines in
prop_data(3), prop_string(3), and prop_number(3).

While parsing the man pages, any .Nm occurrence gets replaced by the

Fix building libprop as a host tool library on platforms that don't have
the Matt Thomas rbtree:

- Include rb.c in libnbcompat, and provide a nbcompat sys/rbtree.h
header.
- Make sure libprop's source file include prop_object_impl.h before
anything else, and pull in nbtool_config.h from there.

Tested by simulating such a host system by renaming the host's
<sys/rbtree.h> out of the way (which reproduced the build failure)
and verifying that the host-tool installboot contained the rb_*
functions in its own .text segment.

Fix an issue introduced with the prop_stack change: It's not a good idea to
return a 3-value enum from a function declared to return bool. This broke
the recurse case for prop_object_equals(). Instead, declare the object type
equals routine to return a _prop_object_equals_rv_t.

Give the same treatment to the object type free routines: declare them to
return a _prop_object_free_rv_t, and consistently check those return values
againt the enum type.

Avoid using unbound amount of stack frames in prop_object_equal
by using a dynamic stack as well. Reorder arguments for the internalizer
as the iteration is always present and should go before possibly
NULL arguments.

libprop is currently using a recursive parser. While this is fine for
userland, deeply nested arrays and dictionaries can easily overflow
the kernel stack and thereby force a panic.

Fix the internalizer and prop_object_release to use a separate call
stack and alter the dictionary and array handling to not recurse on
the C stack. The default stack has an inline depth of 16 elements,
which should keep the overhead reasonable.

This issue was found by Pavel Cahyna and Jachym Holecek.

Additionally add a limit for prop_object_copyin_ioctl to prevent user
programs from temporary allocating unbound amount of kernel memory.
Allow malloc to fail so that tight loops of userland processes can't
force panics by exhausting the kernel map.

Tested with the sample exploit of Jachym, his test suite and reviewed
by himself (initial patch), Christos Zoulas and Jason Thorpe.

Adapt Matt Thomas's red-black tree implementation for use in proplib. This
has a significant code size savings over <sys/tree.h>.

Also change prop_number_t to store all number objects in an r-b tree,
only ever allocating one object for any given number (we can do this
because numbers are immutable). This results in significant run-time
memory savings.

Also guard object accessors against NULL (like we do foreign object types)

Several changes to proplib:
- Arrays can now be externalized and internalized in the same way
dictionaries can.
- Add new "externalize to file" and "internalize from file" functions
to make reading a property list from a file and writing a property
list to a file more convenient.
- Many assertions in the object implementations are gone. Instead,
calling an accessor for one object type with a different object type
as an argument will return a suitable "invalid" value.
- prop_object_type() now returns a new PROP_TYPE_UNKNOWN value if called
with a NULL object.
- Externalized property lists now contain a reference to the Apple XML
plist DTD.
- Add a new prop_ingest(3) facility, which provides a convenient way to
translate a dictionary into an arbitrary binary representation.

Use .Fn to refer a function name instead of Nm.
Also, use Xr to refer problib(3) in the HISTORY section instead of Nm.

While parsing the man pages, any .Nm occurrence gets replaced by the
value specified in the NAME section. Referencing individual function
names with .Nm was causing makemandb(8) to replicate the complete
NAME section for every such occurrence. This was leading to an

Several changes to proplib:
- Arrays can now be externalized and internalized in the same way
dictionaries can.
- Add new "externalize to file" and "internalize from file" functions
to make reading a property list from a file and writing a property
list to a file more convenient.
- Many assertions in the object implementations are gone. Instead,
calling an accessor for one object type with a different object type
as an argument will return a suitable "invalid" value.
- prop_object_type() now returns a new PROP_TYPE_UNKNOWN value if called
with a NULL object.
- Externalized property lists now contain a reference to the Apple XML
plist DTD.
- Add a new prop_ingest(3) facility, which provides a convenient way to
translate a dictionary into an arbitrary binary representation.

Fix an issue introduced with the prop_stack change: It's not a good idea to
return a 3-value enum from a function declared to return bool. This broke
the recurse case for prop_object_equals(). Instead, declare the object type
equals routine to return a _prop_object_equals_rv_t.

Give the same treatment to the object type free routines: declare them to
return a _prop_object_free_rv_t, and consistently check those return values
againt the enum type.

Avoid using unbound amount of stack frames in prop_object_equal

NULL arguments.

libprop is currently using a recursive parser. While this is fine for
userland, deeply nested arrays and dictionaries can easily overflow
the kernel stack and thereby force a panic.

Fix the internalizer and prop_object_release to use a separate call
stack and alter the dictionary and array handling to not recurse on
the C stack. The default stack has an inline depth of 16 elements,
which should keep the overhead reasonable.

This issue was found by Pavel Cahyna and Jachym Holecek.

Additionally add a limit for prop_object_copyin_ioctl to prevent user
programs from temporary allocating unbound amount of kernel memory.
Allow malloc to fail so that tight loops of userland processes can't
force panics by exhausting the kernel map.

Tested with the sample exploit of Jachym, his test suite and reviewed
by himself (initial patch), Christos Zoulas and Jason Thorpe.

Wipe out the last vestiges of POOL_INIT with one swift stroke. In
most cases, use a proper constructor. For proplib, give a local
equivalent of POOL_INIT for the kernel object implementation. This
way the code structure can be preserved, and a local link set is
not hazardous anyway (unless proplib is split to several modules,
but that'll be the day).

Fix an issue introduced with the prop_stack change: It's not a good idea to
return a 3-value enum from a function declared to return bool. This broke
the recurse case for prop_object_equals(). Instead, declare the object type
equals routine to return a _prop_object_equals_rv_t.

Give the same treatment to the object type free routines: declare them to
return a _prop_object_free_rv_t, and consistently check those return values
againt the enum type.

prop_object_iterator_next() and prop_object_iterator_reset() were
acquiring the rwlock recursively in some paths.

Introduce _prop_rwlock_tryrdlock() and use it in these functions, so
that the rwlock is *always* acquired once, while here add some
_PROP_RWLOCK_OWNED asserts to verify.

This definitely fixes the "locking against myself" panics.

Do not acquire the rwlock recursively in prop_{array,dictionary}_iterator_reset()

Introduce _PROP_RWLOCK_OWNED() which is a KASSERT(rw_lock_held(lock))
and use it in those two functions, also acquire the rwlock in other
places where it is required now.

This fixes a LOCKDEBUG panic "locking against myself", as reported by
Geoff C. Wing in current-users@.

Avoid using unbound amount of stack frames in prop_object_equal
by using a dynamic stack as well. Reorder arguments for the internalizer
as the iteration is always present and should go before possibly
NULL arguments.

libprop is currently using a recursive parser. While this is fine for
userland, deeply nested arrays and dictionaries can easily overflow
the kernel stack and thereby force a panic.

Fix the internalizer and prop_object_release to use a separate call
stack and alter the dictionary and array handling to not recurse on
the C stack. The default stack has an inline depth of 16 elements,
which should keep the overhead reasonable.

This issue was found by Pavel Cahyna and Jachym Holecek.

Additionally add a limit for prop_object_copyin_ioctl to prevent user
programs from temporary allocating unbound amount of kernel memory.
Allow malloc to fail so that tight loops of userland processes can't
force panics by exhausting the kernel map.

Tested with the sample exploit of Jachym, his test suite and reviewed
by himself (initial patch), Christos Zoulas and Jason Thorpe.

Several changes to proplib:
- Arrays can now be externalized and internalized in the same way
dictionaries can.
- Add new "externalize to file" and "internalize from file" functions
to make reading a property list from a file and writing a property
list to a file more convenient.
- Many assertions in the object implementations are gone. Instead,
calling an accessor for one object type with a different object type
as an argument will return a suitable "invalid" value.
- prop_object_type() now returns a new PROP_TYPE_UNKNOWN value if called
with a NULL object.
- Externalized property lists now contain a reference to the Apple XML
plist DTD.
- Add a new prop_ingest(3) facility, which provides a convenient way to
translate a dictionary into an arbitrary binary representation.

Also change prop_number_t to store all number objects in an r-b tree,
only ever allocating one object for any given number (we can do this
because numbers are immutable). This results in significant run-time
memory savings.

Add support for serializing to, and de-serializing from, JSON, as
specified in RFC 8259. Format is automatically detected for input,
and can be specified explicitly for output. The default format remains
XML.

As part of this change, generic prop_object_{internalize,externalize}()
functions are provided, and the "_with_format" flavor allows the output
format to be specified. Previous array- and dictionary-specific routines
remain for backwards compatibility.

Fix an implementation inconsistency with the prop_*_send_syscall() and
prop_*_recv_syscall() functions from proplib(3). They now share the
same logic as the one from prop_*_send_ioctl() functions:
- returns an int
- 0 indicates "no error", otherwise returns the error number (and
set errno)

Many consumers of the prop_*_{ioctl, syscall} expect errno to be set
on error and use err() to display the error message. As such, ensures that
errno gets set before returning from these functions.

prop_*_send_syscall() functions returned a boolean, and now return an int.
Fix all call sites to use the new paradigm (only quota2 is affected in src).

As the prop_*_{send,recv}_syscall() API appeared in -current and is only
used by the recent quota2 code, I am not bumping the lib. The API change
only affects the prop_*_send_syscall() function (recv_syscall()s were
already used correctly), so ensure you are not mixing "old" -current
quota binaries with a new proplib(3) (or the other way around). This
change will be announced via a HEADS-UP and UPDATING.

Does not affect the kernel part of proplib.

Document the correct API in prop_array(3) and prop_dictionary(3).

Thanks to Francois Tigeot for noticing the API inconsistency and
reporting it on tech-kern@.

- Implement prop_{array,dictionary}_recv_syscall(), which
takes as parameter the pref we got from kernel and internalize it,

Fix building libprop as a host tool library on platforms that don't have
the Matt Thomas rbtree:

- Include rb.c in libnbcompat, and provide a nbcompat sys/rbtree.h
header.
- Make sure libprop's source file include prop_object_impl.h before
anything else, and pull in nbtool_config.h from there.

Tested by simulating such a host system by renaming the host's
<sys/rbtree.h> out of the way (which reproduced the build failure)

libprop is currently using a recursive parser. While this is fine for
userland, deeply nested arrays and dictionaries can easily overflow
the kernel stack and thereby force a panic.

Fix the internalizer and prop_object_release to use a separate call
stack and alter the dictionary and array handling to not recurse on
the C stack. The default stack has an inline depth of 16 elements,
which should keep the overhead reasonable.

This issue was found by Pavel Cahyna and Jachym Holecek.

Additionally add a limit for prop_object_copyin_ioctl to prevent user
programs from temporary allocating unbound amount of kernel memory.
Allow malloc to fail so that tight loops of userland processes can't
force panics by exhausting the kernel map.

Tested with the sample exploit of Jachym, his test suite and reviewed
by himself (initial patch), Christos Zoulas and Jason Thorpe.

Improvements to the problib(3) API:

==> Provide a much more complete set of setters and getters for different
value types in the prop_array_util(3) and prop_dictionary_util(3)
functions.

==> Overhaul the prop_data(3), prop_number(3), and prop_string(3) APIs
to be easier to use and less awkwardly named, Deprecate the old
awkward names, and produce link-time warnings when they are referenced.

==> Deprecate mutable prop_data(3) and prop_string(3) objects. The old
APIs that support them still exist, but will now produce link-time
warnings when used.

==> When the new prop_string(3) API is used, strings are internally
de-duplicated as a memory footprint optimization.

==> Provide a rich set of bounds-checked gettter functions in and a
corresponding set of convenience setters in the prop_number(3) API.

==> Add a new prop_bool_value(3) function that is equivalent to
prop_bool_true(3), but aligned with the new "value" routines in
prop_data(3), prop_string(3), and prop_number(3).

Use .Fn to refer a function name instead of Nm.
Also, use Xr to refer problib(3) in the HISTORY section instead of Nm.

While parsing the man pages, any .Nm occurrence gets replaced by the
value specified in the NAME section. Referencing individual function
names with .Nm was causing makemandb(8) to replicate the complete
NAME section for every such occurrence. This was leading to an
ugly looking snippet in apropos(1)'s output when searched for
any of these man pages.

Add support for serializing to, and de-serializing from, JSON, as
specified in RFC 8259. Format is automatically detected for input,
and can be specified explicitly for output. The default format remains
XML.

As part of this change, generic prop_object_{internalize,externalize}()
functions are provided, and the "_with_format" flavor allows the output
format to be specified. Previous array- and dictionary-specific routines
remain for backwards compatibility.

In _prop_string_instantiate(), when we de-dup a non-MUTABLE string, make
sure we free the provided string buffer if NOCOPY is not set. Fixes
a memory leak reported by M. Boerschig.

While we're at it, also change _prop_string_instantiate() to free the
provided string buffer in the not-NOCOPY case when string object allocation
fails (this was previously handled by _prop_string_instantiate()'s
callers).

Improvements to the problib(3) API:

==> Provide a much more complete set of setters and getters for different
value types in the prop_array_util(3) and prop_dictionary_util(3)
functions.

==> Overhaul the prop_data(3), prop_number(3), and prop_string(3) APIs
to be easier to use and less awkwardly named, Deprecate the old
awkward names, and produce link-time warnings when they are referenced.

==> Deprecate mutable prop_data(3) and prop_string(3) objects. The old
APIs that support them still exist, but will now produce link-time
warnings when used.

==> When the new prop_string(3) API is used, strings are internally
de-duplicated as a memory footprint optimization.

==> Provide a rich set of bounds-checked gettter functions in and a
corresponding set of convenience setters in the prop_number(3) API.

==> Add a new prop_bool_value(3) function that is equivalent to
prop_bool_true(3), but aligned with the new "value" routines in
prop_data(3), prop_string(3), and prop_number(3).

Fix building libprop as a host tool library on platforms that don't have
the Matt Thomas rbtree:

- Include rb.c in libnbcompat, and provide a nbcompat sys/rbtree.h
header.
- Make sure libprop's source file include prop_object_impl.h before
anything else, and pull in nbtool_config.h from there.

Tested by simulating such a host system by renaming the host's
<sys/rbtree.h> out of the way (which reproduced the build failure)
and verifying that the host-tool installboot contained the rb_*
functions in its own .text segment.

Fix an issue introduced with the prop_stack change: It's not a good idea to
return a 3-value enum from a function declared to return bool. This broke
the recurse case for prop_object_equals(). Instead, declare the object type
equals routine to return a _prop_object_equals_rv_t.

Give the same treatment to the object type free routines: declare them to
return a _prop_object_free_rv_t, and consistently check those return values
againt the enum type.

Tidy up some whitespace while we're here.

Avoid using unbound amount of stack frames in prop_object_equal
by using a dynamic stack as well. Reorder arguments for the internalizer
as the iteration is always present and should go before possibly
NULL arguments.

libprop is currently using a recursive parser. While this is fine for
userland, deeply nested arrays and dictionaries can easily overflow
the kernel stack and thereby force a panic.

Fix the internalizer and prop_object_release to use a separate call
stack and alter the dictionary and array handling to not recurse on
the C stack. The default stack has an inline depth of 16 elements,
which should keep the overhead reasonable.

This issue was found by Pavel Cahyna and Jachym Holecek.

Additionally add a limit for prop_object_copyin_ioctl to prevent user
programs from temporary allocating unbound amount of kernel memory.
Allow malloc to fail so that tight loops of userland processes can't
force panics by exhausting the kernel map.

Tested with the sample exploit of Jachym, his test suite and reviewed
by himself (initial patch), Christos Zoulas and Jason Thorpe.

Also guard object accessors against NULL (like we do foreign object types)
so that apps can use this construct safely:

obj = prop_dictionary_get(dict, "value");
if (! prop_number_equals_integer(obj, 5)) {
...
}

Suggested by Iain Hibbert.


1.3 21-Aug-2006 thorpej

Several changes to proplib:
- Arrays can now be externalized and internalized in the same way
dictionaries can.
- Add new "externalize to file" and "internalize from file" functions
to make reading a property list from a file and writing a property
list to a file more convenient.
- Many assertions in the object implementations are gone. Instead,
calling an accessor for one object type with a different object type
as an argument will return a suitable "invalid" value.
- prop_object_type() now returns a new PROP_TYPE_UNKNOWN value if called
with a NULL object.
- Externalized property lists now contain a reference to the Apple XML
plist DTD.
- Add a new prop_ingest(3) facility, which provides a convenient way to
translate a dictionary into an arbitrary binary representation.

- Use realloc() where it makes sense. There will be more changes in this

- Add a _prop_object_type structure that is used internally to keep
information about the object types. Decreases the footprint of the
objects slightly by replacing several pointers with just one.
