On some architectures, including AMD Zen CPUs, dividing a secret
by a constant denominator may not be a constant-time operation.
And most Kyber implementations, including ours, could leak the
hamming weight of the shared secret because of this. See:
https://kyberslash.cr.yp.to
Multiplications aren't guaranteed to be constant-time either, but
at least on the CPUs we currently support, it is.
- Clean up array formatting code. Remove buggy formatting of array
pointers, deference pointer to reuse existing array formatting logic.
- Change default specifier for array pointers to be "{any}", to be
consistent with slices.
- Allow using "{x}" and "{e}" for arrays and slices for all number
types, including u8.
Fixes#18185
In theory this is part of https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/18335, but these tests already pass since deleteTree does not depend on `OpenDirOptions.no_follow` behavior for these test cases:
- `deleteTree` always tries to delete the initial path as a file first, which will succeed on symlinks because `deleteFile` doesn't follow symlinks
- `deleteTree` when iterating a directory will get the type of symlinks as .sym_link, not as .directory (even if the symlink points to a directory), meaning it will never try to open a symlink as a directory.
The `no_follow` behavior happened to allow opening a file descriptor of a symlink itself on Windows, but that behavior may change in the future. Instead, we implement the opening of the symlink as a file descriptor manually (and per-platform) in the test case.
ctime is last file status/metadata change, not creation time. Note that this mistake was not made in the `File.metadata`/`File.Metadata` implementation, which allows getting the actual creation time.
Closes#18290
Requires an extra NtQueryInformationFile call when FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT is set to determine if it's actually a symlink or some other kind of reparse point (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/reparse-point-tags). This is something that `File.Metadata.kind` was already doing, so the same technique is used in `stat`.
Also, replace the std.os.windows.DeviceIoControl call in `metadata` with NtQueryInformationFile (NtQueryInformationFile is what gets called during kernel32.GetFileInformationByHandleEx with FileAttributeTagInfo, verified using NtTrace).
The old implementation had a bug in it in that it didn't quote empty strings, but it also didn't properly follow the special quoting rules required for the first argument (the executable name). This new implementation serializes the argv correctly such that it can be parsed by the `CommandLineToArgvW` algorithm.
This adds `ArgIteratorWindows`, which faithfully replicates the quoting and escaping behavior observed in `CommandLineToArgvW` and should make Zig applications play better with processes that abuse these quirks.
This way people can use `const` with a `std.EnumMap`
and be able to `getPtrAssertContains(...)` like the
would with a mutable `var` instance.
Aligns with the existing `getPtr(...)`/`getPtrConst(...)`
methods.
previously when T was smaller than 8 bits, it was possible for base
to overflow T (because base is a u8). this patch prevents this by
accumulating into a U rather than T which is at least 8 bits wide.
this is the best way i could think of to maintain performance. this
will only affect parsing of integers less than 8 bits by adding one
additional cast at return. additionally, this patch may be slightly
slower to return an error for integers less than 8 bits which overflow
because it will accumulate a few more digits before the overflow check
at return.
* add tests which previously overflowed when they shouldn't have
