This patch contains:
* checks for malloc return value + treat callers;
* modified malloc() + ZeroMemory() to calloc();
* misc fixes of micro errors seen during the code audit:
** some invalid checks in gcc.c, also there were some possible
integer overflow. This is interesting because at the end the data are parsed
and freed directly, so it's a vulnerability in some kind of dead code (at least
useless);
** fixed usage of GetComputerNameExA with just one call, when 2 were used
in misc places. According to MSDN GetComputerNameA() is supposed to return
an error when called with NULL;
** there were a bug in the command line parsing of shadow;
** in freerdp_dynamic_channel_collection_add() the size of array was multiplied
by 4 instead of 2 on resize
Stopwatch (in the way it is used) must be able to measure the wall
clock time with high resolution but used clock() which is not
appropriate for this purpose:
On POSIX systems clock() returns the processor time used by the
program. On Windows clock() does measure the wall clock time but
has only a resolution of 1ms (if at all).
This also renders the freerdp profiler unusable.
This commit changes stopwatch to use the performance counters
on Windows and gettimeofday() for the rest.
Also added a warning about invalid profiling results to the
RemoteFX codec if rfxcontext->priv->UseThreads is enabled because
stopwatch is currently not used in a thread safe way.
