13 hourslibreboot-utils: simplified pledge/unveil usageLeah Rowe
i no longer care about openbsd 5.9. we assume unveil is available, as has been the case for the past 12 years. i use wrappers for unveil and pledge, which means that i call them on every os. on OSes that don't have these, i just return. it's somewhat inelegant, but also means that i see errors more easily, e.g. misnamed variables inside previous ifdef OpenBSD blocks.

14 hourslibreboot-utils: extremely safe(ish) malloc usageLeah Rowe
yes, a common thing in C programs is one or all of the following: * use after frees * double free (on non-NULL pointer) * over-writing currently used pointer (mem leak) i try to reduce the chance of this in my software, by running free() through a filter function, free_if_not_null, that returns if a function is being freed twice - because it sets NULL after freeing, but will only free if it's not null already. this patch adds two functions: smalloc and vmalloc, for strings and voids. using these makes the program abort if: * non-null pointer given for initialisation * pointer to pointer is null (of course) * size of zero given, for malloc (zero bytes) i myself was caught out by this change, prompting me to make the following fix in fs_dirname_basename() inside lib/file.c: - char *buf; + char *buf = NULL; Yes.

15 hoursnvmutil: clamp rand (rejection sampling)Leah Rowe
clamp rand to eliminate modulo sampling; high values on the randomisation will bias the result. not really critical for mac addresses, but there's no reason not to have this. this patches reduces the chance that two libreboot users will generate the same mac addresses!

i had a bunch of hacks in here because i was previously using very buggy rand. now it's ok. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

make it more efficient. much lower rejection rate now, about 2-5%. deal with bias, but also get numbers in bulk. not too many. i'd say this is about right in terms of performance balance. 64 bytes == 8 large integers. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
