This PR mainly fixes a possible integer overflow in `json_append_string()`. When we use `cjson.encoding()` to encode a string larger than 2GB, at specific compilation flags, an integer overflow may occur leading to truncation, resulting in the part of the string larger than 2GB not being encoded. On the other hand, this overflow doesn't cause any read or write out-of-range or segment fault. 1) using -O0 for lua_cjson (`make LUA_DEBUG=yes`) In this case, `i` will overflow and leads to truncation. When `i` reaches `INT_MAX+1` and overflows to INT_MIN, when compared to len, `i` (1000000..00) is expanded to 64 bits signed integer (1111111.....000000) . At this point i will be greater than len and jump out of the loop, so `for (i = 0; i < len; i++)` will loop up to 2^31 times, and the part of larger than 2GB will be truncated. ```asm `i` => -0x24(%rbp) <+253>: addl $0x1,-0x24(%rbp) ; overflow if i large than 2^31 <+257>: mov -0x24(%rbp),%eax <+260>: movslq %eax,%rdx ; move a 32-bit value with sign extension into a 64-bit signed <+263>: mov -0x20(%rbp),%rax <+267>: cmp %rax,%rdx ; check `i < len` <+270>: jb 0x212600 <json_append_string+148> ``` 2) using -O2/-O3 for lua_cjson (`make LUA_DEBUG=no`, **the default**) In this case, because singed integer overflow is an undefined behavior, `i` will not overflow. `i` will be optimized by the compiler and use 64-bit registers for all subsequent instructions. ```asm <+180>: add $0x1,%rbx ; Using 64-bit register `rbx` for i++ <+184>: lea 0x1(%rdx),%rsi <+188>: mov %rsi,0x10(%rbp) <+192>: mov %al,(%rcx,%rdx,1) <+195>: cmp %rbx,(%rsp) ; check `i < len` <+199>: ja 0x20b63a <json_append_string+154> ``` 3) using 32bit Because `strbuf_ensure_empty_length()` preallocates memory of length (len * 6 + 2), in 32-bit `cjson.encode()` can only handle strings smaller than ((2 ^ 32) - 3 ) / 6. So 32bit is not affected. Also change `i` in `strbuf_append_string()` to `size_t`. Since its second argument `str` is taken from the `char2escape` string array which is never larger than 6, so `strbuf_append_string()` is not at risk of overflow (the bug was unreachable).
Redis Test Suite
The normal execution mode of the test suite involves starting and manipulating
local redis-server
instances, inspecting process state, log files, etc.
The test suite also supports execution against an external server, which is
enabled using the --host
and --port
parameters. When executing against an
external server, tests tagged external:skip
are skipped.
There are additional runtime options that can further adjust the test suite to match different external server configurations:
Option | Impact |
---|---|
--singledb |
Only use database 0, don't assume others are supported. |
--ignore-encoding |
Skip all checks for specific encoding. |
--ignore-digest |
Skip key value digest validations. |
--cluster-mode |
Run in strict Redis Cluster compatibility mode. |
--large-memory |
Enables tests that consume more than 100mb |
Tags
Tags are applied to tests to classify them according to the subsystem they test, but also to indicate compatibility with different run modes and required capabilities.
Tags can be applied in different context levels:
start_server
contexttags
context that bundles several tests together- A single test context.
The following compatibility and capability tags are currently used:
Tag | Indicates |
---|---|
external:skip |
Not compatible with external servers. |
cluster:skip |
Not compatible with --cluster-mode . |
large-memory |
Test that requires more than 100mb |
tls:skip |
Not compatible with --tls . |
needs:repl |
Uses replication and needs to be able to SYNC from server. |
needs:debug |
Uses the DEBUG command or other debugging focused commands (like OBJECT REFCOUNT ). |
needs:pfdebug |
Uses the PFDEBUG command. |
needs:config-maxmemory |
Uses CONFIG SET to manipulate memory limit, eviction policies, etc. |
needs:config-resetstat |
Uses CONFIG RESETSTAT to reset statistics. |
needs:reset |
Uses RESET to reset client connections. |
needs:save |
Uses SAVE or BGSAVE to create an RDB file. |
When using an external server (--host
and --port
), filtering using the
external:skip
tags is done automatically.
When using --cluster-mode
, filtering using the cluster:skip
tag is done
automatically.
When not using --large-memory
, filtering using the largemem:skip
tag is done
automatically.
In addition, it is possible to specify additional configuration. For example, to
run tests on a server that does not permit SYNC
use:
./runtest --host <host> --port <port> --tags -needs:repl
