Rebased the bugfix from the original Google Code issue #292 to work with Arduino 1.6.x
Description of original fix provided by Pete62:
The later 8 bit AVR's use two registers (TCCRxA, TCCRxB) whereas the ATmega8 only uses a single register (TCCR2) to house the control bits for Timer 2. Bits were inadvertently being cleared.
When checking the `left` argument, it previously allowed having
left == len. However, this means the substring starts one past the last
character in the string and should return the empty string. In practice,
this already worked correctly, because buffer[len] contains the trailing
nul, so it would (re)assign the empty string to `out`.
However, fixing this check makes it a bit more logical, and prevents a
fairly unlikely out-of-buffer write (to address 0x0) when calling
substring on an invalidated String:
String bar = (char*)NULL;
bar.substring(0, 0);
Previously, this method calculated the length of the string from the
given index onwards. However, the other remove() method called already
contains code for this calculation, which is used when the count passed
in is too big. This means we can just pass in a very big count that is
guaranteed to point past the end of the string, shrinking the remove
method by a few bytes.
Previously, if you passed in a very big index and/or count, the
`index + count` could overflow, making the count be used as-is instead
of being truncated (causing the string to be updated wrongly and
potentially writing to arbitrary memory locations).
We can rewrite the comparison to use `len - index` instead. Since we
know that index < len, we are sure this subtraction does not overflow,
regardless of what values of index and count we pass in.
As an added bonus, the `len - index` value already needed be calculated
inside the if, so this saves a few instructions in the generated code.
To illustrate this problem, consider this code:
String foo = "foo";
Serial.println(foo.length()); // Prints 3
foo.remove(1, 65535); // Should remove all but first character
Serial.println(foo.length()); // Prints 4 without this patch
Not shown in this is example is that some arbitrary memory is written
as well.
The following empty stubs has been replaced by the gcc
flag -fno-threadsafe-static:
int __cxa_guard_acquire(__guard *);
void __cxa_guard_release (__guard *);
void __cxa_guard_abort (__guard *);
The following empty stubs has been moved into their specific
module abi.cpp:
void __cxa_pure_virtual(void) __attribute ((noreturn));
void __cxa_deleted_virtual(void) __attribute ((noreturn));
Fix#107
Stream::find(char *target) passes an empty terminator string to
Stream::findUntil(char *target, char *terminator) which caused a compiler
warning with the updated toolchain, so cast it to a char*.
These chips were previously supported, but since parity error checking
was added, this support has broken. Most chips define UPE0 (etc.) for
the parity error bit. Some chips don't have numbered UARTS so only
define UPE and even fewer define PE instead of UPE. This adds support
for those chips again.
Closes: #2137
Some devices, such as the atmega2560 or the atmega256rfr2 have a timer1c
output. It seems this output is not connected to anything on the Arduino
Mega, but this allows using it on third party hardware nonetheless.
Before, HardwareSerial1+.cpp were a copy of HardwareSerial1.cpp with all
0's replaced by the corresponding number. This would mean that e.g.
the Serial1 object would use the UBRRL register instead of UBRR1L when
it was defined, or the USART_RX_vect instead of USART1_RX_vect.
In practice, this would neve actually cause problems, since:
- No avr chip currently has both the non-numbered registers as well as
numbered registers.
- HardwareSerial.h would only define HAVE_HWSERIALx when the
corresponding numbered register is defined (except for
HAVE_HWSERIAL0, which is also defined when the unnumbered registers
are present).
Furthermore, before both the UARTx_xx_vect and USART_x_xx_vect was used.
Looking at the include files, only UART1_xx_vect is actually used (by
iom161.h), the others use USARTx_xx_vect. For this reason,
HardwareSerial1.cpp keeps the preprocessor conditional to select either
UART or USART and the other files use USART unconditionally.
While we're here, also fix the compiler error message when no valid ISR
name was found (it previously said "for the first UART" in all cases).
In commit 0e97bcb (Put each HardwareSerial instance in its own .cpp
file), the serial event handling was changed. This was probably a
copy-paste typo.
The effect of this bug was that SerialEvent3 would not run, unless
SerialEvent2 was defined, but also that if SerialEvent2 is defined but
SerialEvent3 is not, this could cause a reset (call to NULL pointer).
This closes#1967, thanks to Peter Olson for finding the bug and fix.
