Most importantly, the trick we did earlier to avoid wasting two bytes on padding in the ctf_slice_t is best avoided: because it leads to the whole file after that point no longer being naturally aligned, all multibyte accesses from then on must use memmove() to avoid unaligned access on platforms where that is fatal. In future, this is planned, but for now we are still doing direct access in many places, so we must revert to making ctf_slice_t properly aligned for storage in an array. Rather than wasting bytes on padding, we boost the size of cts_offset and cts_bits. This is still a waste of space (we cannot have offsets or bits in bitfields > 256) but it cannot be avoided for now, and slices are not so common that this will be a serious problem. A possibly-worse endianness problem fixed at the same time involves a codepath used only for foreign-endian, uncompressed CTF files, where we were not copying the actual CTF data into the buffer, leading to libctf reading only zeroes (or, possibly, uninitialized garbage). Finally, when we read in a CTF file, we copy the header and work from the copy. We were flipping the endianness of the header copy, and of the body of the file buffer, but not of the header in the file buffer itself: so if we write the file back out again we end up with an unreadable frankenfile with header and body of different endiannesses. Fix by flipping both copies of the header. include/ * ctf.h (ctf_slice_t): Make cts_offset and cts_bits unsigned short, so following structures are properly aligned. libctf/ * ctf-open.c (get_vbytes_common): Return the new slice size. (ctf_bufopen): Flip the endianness of the CTF-section header copy. Remember to copy in the CTF data when opening an uncompressed foreign-endian CTF file.
