This avoids registering standard functions when creating an XPath
context.
Lookup of extension functions is a bit slower now, but ultimately, all
function lookups should be moved to the compilation phase.
Fix a long-standing issue where QNames starting with a non-ASCII
character would be rejected. This became more visible after "streaming"
XPath evaluation was disabled since the latter handled non-ASCII names
correctly.
Fixes#818.
The check for maximum recursion depth required a parser context with an
xmlXPathContext which xmlXPathCompile didn't provide.
All other code should already set up or require an xmlXPathContext.
Always use what the old implementation called the "IO" allocation
scheme, allowing to move the content pointer past the initial
allocation. This is inexpensive and allows efficient shrinking.
Optimize xmlBufGrow, reusing shrunken memory as much as possible.
Simplify xmlBufAdd.
Make xmlBufBackToBuffer return an error on overflow.
Make "size" exclude the terminating NULL byte.
Always provide an initial size.
Reintroduce static buffers.
Remove xmlBufResize and several other functions.
The latest spec for what it essentially an XPath extension seems to be
this working draft from 2002:
https://www.w3.org/TR/xptr-xpointer/
The xpointer() scheme is listed as "being reviewed" in the XPointer
registry since at least 2006. libxml2 seems to be the only modern
software that tries to implement this spec, but the code has many bugs
and quality issues.
If you configure --with-legacy, old symbols are retained for ABI
compatibility.
Unfortunately, it's long-standing behavior for libxml2 to print all
reported errors to stderr by default. This default behavior is now
partially disabled. If no error handler is set, only parser and
validation errors are passed to a generic error handler or printed to
stderr. Other errors are still available via xmlGetLastError and can be
captured with a structured error handler.
Introduce xmlXPathSetErrorHandler allowing to set a structured error
handler for an XPath context.
Remove arguments from memory error handlers.
Use xmlRaiseMemoryError.
Remove TODO, STRANGE and CHECK_CTXT macros.
Remove remaining uses of xmlGenericError.
Fix many places where malloc failures aren't reported.
Rework XPath object cache to store free objects in a linked list to
avoid allocating an additional array. Remove some unneeded object pools.
XPath queries only work reliably if entities are substituted.
Nevertheless, it's possible to query a document with entity reference
nodes. xmllint even deletes entities when the `--dropdtd` option is
passed, resulting in dangling pointers, so it's best to skip entity
reference nodes to avoid a use-after-free.
Fixes#550.
There's too much code which assumes that if ctxt->value is non-null,
a value can be successfully popped off the stack. This assumption can
break with stack frames when malloc fails.
Instead of trying to fix all call sites, remove the stack frame logic.
It only offered very little protection against misbehaving extension
functions. We already check the stack size after a function call which
should be enough.
