Sync VEX/LICENSE.GPL with top-level COPYING file. We used 3 different
addresses for writing to the FSF to receive a copy of the GPL. Replace
all different variants with an URL <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
The following files might still have some slightly different (L)GPL
copyright notice because they were derived from other programs:
- files under coregrind/m_demangle which come from libiberty:
cplus-dem.c, d-demangle.c, demangle.h, rust-demangle.c,
safe-ctype.c and safe-ctype.h
- coregrind/m_demangle/dyn-string.[hc] derived from GCC.
- coregrind/m_demangle/ansidecl.h derived from glibc.
- VEX files for FMA detived from glibc:
host_generic_maddf.h and host_generic_maddf.c
- files under coregrin/m_debuginfo derived from LZO:
lzoconf.h, lzodefs.h, minilzo-inl.c and minilzo.h
- files under coregrind/m_gdbserver detived from GDB:
gdb/signals.h, inferiors.c, regcache.c, regcache.h,
regdef.h, remote-utils.c, server.c, server.h, signals.c,
target.c, target.h and utils.c
Plus the following test files:
- none/tests/ppc32/testVMX.c derived from testVMX.
- ppc tests derived from QEMU: jm-insns.c, ppc64_helpers.h
and test_isa_3_0.c
- tests derived from bzip2 (with embedded GPL text in code):
hackedbz2.c, origin5-bz2.c, varinfo6.c
- tests detived from glibc: str_tester.c, pth_atfork1.c
- test detived from GCC libgomp: tc17_sembar.c
- performance tests derived from bzip2 or tinycc (with embedded GPL
text in code): bz2.c, test_input_for_tinycc.c and tinycc.c
matching, in the function VG_(generic_match). Patterns to be matched
against may contain only '*'-style wildcards (matches any number of
elements, we don't care what they are), '?' wildcards (matches exactly
one element, we don't care what it is) and literal elements.
It is totally abstractified, in the sense that the pattern and input
arrays may be arrays of anything. The caller provides enough
information so that VG_(generic_match) can step along both arrays, and
can ask the questions "is this pattern element a '*' ?", "is this
pattern element a '?' ?", and "does this pattern element match an
input element ?".
The existing function VG_(string_match) is reimplemented using
VG_(generic_match), although the ability to escape metacharacters in
the pattern string is removed -- I don't think it was ever used.
In m_errormgr, matching of suppression stacks (including wildcard
"..." lines) against error stacks is re-implemented using
VG_(generic_match).
Further detailed comments are in m_seqmatch.h and pub_tool_seqmatch.h.
A negative side effect is that VG_(string_match) will be much slower
than before, due to the abstractification. It may be necessary to
reimplement a specialised version later.
