This fixes maplist showing only those maps in the user directory.
However, no checking is done for duplicate files due to earlier search
paths overriding later paths.
Other parts of quakefs treat an empty path as an error, so fs_sharepath
and fs_userpath must never be empty or they will effectively be
rejected. While the user explicitly setting them to empty strings is one
way for them to become empty, another is QFS_CompressPath compressing
'.' to an empty path, which makes it rather difficult to set up the
traditional quake directory tree (ie, operate from the current
directory).
This is an extremely extensive patch as it hits every cvar, and every
usage of the cvars. Cvars no longer store the value they control,
instead, they use a cexpr value object to reference the value and
specify the value's type (currently, a null type is used for strings).
Non-string cvars are passed through cexpr, allowing expressions in the
cvars' settings. Also, cvars have returned to an enhanced version of the
original (id quake) registration scheme.
As a minor benefit, relevant code having direct access to the
cvar-controlled variables is probably a slight optimization as it
removed a pointer dereference, and the variables can be located for data
locality.
The static cvar descriptors are made private as an additional safety
layer, though there's nothing stopping external modification via
Cvar_FindVar (which is needed for adding listeners).
While not used yet (partly due to working out the design), cvars can
have a validation function.
Registering a cvar allows a primary listener (and its data) to be
specified: it will always be called first when the cvar is modified. The
combination of proper listeners and direct access to the controlled
variable greatly simplifies the more complex cvar interactions as much
less null checking is required, and there's no need for one cvar's
callback to call another's.
nq-x11 is known to work at least well enough for the demos. More testing
will come.
QFS_NextFilename was renamed to QFS_NextFile to reflect the fact it now
returns a QFile pointer for the newly created file (as well as the
name). This necessitated updating WritePNG to take a file pointer
instead of a file name, with the advantage that WritePNGqfs is no longer
necessary and callers have much more control over the creation of the
file.
This makes QFS_NextFile much more secure against file system race
conditions and attacks (at least in theory). If nothing else, it will
make it more robust in a multi-threaded environment.
It's not there yet as it promptly closes the file and returns only the
filename (and then only the portion within the user's directory tree).
However, this worked nicely as a test for Sys_UniqueFile.
There's no point in zeroing out memory that is only going to be
overwritten by the loaded file (excess bytes beyond the end of a
massaged text file shouldn't be accessed anyway, and the terminating
null is still written).
This is needed for cleaning up excess memsets when loading files because
Hunk_RawAllocName has nonnull on its hunk pointer (as the rest of the
hunk functions really should, but not just yet).
For now, the functions check for a null hunk pointer and use the global
hunk (initialized via Memory_Init) if necessary. However, Hunk_Init is
available (and used by Memory_Init) to create a hunk from any arbitrary
memory block. So long as that block is 64-byte aligned, allocations
within the hunk will remain 64-byte aligned.
Still "some" more to go: a pile to do with transforms and temporary
entities, and a nasty one with host_cbuf. There's also all the static
block-alloc lists :/
It now takes a context pointer (opaque data) that holds the buffers it
uses for the temporary strings. If the context pointer is null, a static
context is used (making those uses of va NOT thread-safe). Most calls to
va use the static context, but all such calls have been formatted
consistently so they are easy to find when it comes time to do a full
audit.
They take a pointer to a free-list used for hashlinks so the hashlink
pools can be per-thread. However, hash tables that are not updated are
always thread-safe, so this affects only updates. progs_t has been set
up such that it is easy for multiple progs within one thread can share
hashlinks.
This fixes the problem of not finding files without a .gz extension when
gzip support is enabled (most of my quake data is compressed, so it took a
while for me to notice the problem).
_QFS_VOpenFile is actually _QFS_FOpenFile reimplemented to take vpath start
and end parameters so the search can be limited. QFS_VOpenFile,
_QFS_FOpenFile, and QFS_FOpenFile are all wrappers for _QFS_VOpenFile.
A vpath is the union of all locations searched for a file in a single
gamedir (eg, shadows, id1 etc). This is a necessary step to preventing
problems like id1/maps/start.lit being used for shadows/maps/start.bsp.
However, QFS_FilelistFill still needs to be reworked as it does not compile
yet (testing was done with a gutted QFS_FilelistFill).
Buffer underflow and though strcpy has always been safe there, change to
memmove. Had the added benefit of helping me create more test cases for
better coverage.
Yay, Deek for finding another bug in qf :). He had an old dirconf that
didn't specify HudType and thus caused the status bar code to blow up. Set
the default to "id" if none is found.
I have no idea why I did that, but it crept in with the var substitution
fix, so I guess it might have been an attempt to fix a bug, but it looks
like it was broken anyway.
Currently only "id", "hipnotic" and "rogue" are supported (anything else is
treated as "id"). Has no effect in quakeworld (good thing too: changing
gamedirs is a little broken).
