From f76c327aae447ca595a428c6783d817ec2f23ed9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthijs Kooijman Date: Tue, 18 Feb 2014 18:11:22 +0100 Subject: Use a union in IPAddress for uint8_t[] <-> uint32_t conversion MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Previously, pointer casting was used, but this resulted in strict-aliasing warnings: IPAddress.h: In member function ‘IPAddress::operator uint32_t() const’: IPAddress.h:46:61: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules [-Wstrict-aliasing] operator uint32_t() const { return *((uint32_t*)_address); }; ^ IPAddress.h: In member function ‘bool IPAddress::operator==(const IPAddress&) const’: IPAddress.h:47:81: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules [-Wstrict-aliasing] bool operator==(const IPAddress& addr) const { return (*((uint32_t*)_address)) == (*((uint32_t*)addr._address)); }; ^ IPAddress.h:47:114: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules [-Wstrict-aliasing] bool operator==(const IPAddress& addr) const { return (*((uint32_t*)_address)) == (*((uint32_t*)addr._address)); }; Converting between unrelated types like this is commonly done using a union, which do not break the strict-aliasing rules. Using that union, inside IPAddress there is now an attribute _address.bytes for the raw byte arra, or _address.dword for the uint32_t version. Since we now have easy access to the uint32_t version, this also removes two memcpy invocations that can just become assignments. This patch does not change the generated code in any way, the compiler already optimized away the memcpy calls and the previous casts mean exactly the same. This is a different implementation of a part of #1399 and it helps toward fixing #1728. --- cores/arduino/IPAddress.cpp | 24 ++++++++++++------------ cores/arduino/IPAddress.h | 16 ++++++++++------ 2 files changed, 22 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) (limited to 'cores') diff --git a/cores/arduino/IPAddress.cpp b/cores/arduino/IPAddress.cpp index 22a0e42..899cbd4 100644 --- a/cores/arduino/IPAddress.cpp +++ b/cores/arduino/IPAddress.cpp @@ -22,42 +22,42 @@ IPAddress::IPAddress() { - memset(_address, 0, sizeof(_address)); + _address.dword = 0; } IPAddress::IPAddress(uint8_t first_octet, uint8_t second_octet, uint8_t third_octet, uint8_t fourth_octet) { - _address[0] = first_octet; - _address[1] = second_octet; - _address[2] = third_octet; - _address[3] = fourth_octet; + _address.bytes[0] = first_octet; + _address.bytes[1] = second_octet; + _address.bytes[2] = third_octet; + _address.bytes[3] = fourth_octet; } IPAddress::IPAddress(uint32_t address) { - memcpy(_address, &address, sizeof(_address)); + _address.dword = address; } IPAddress::IPAddress(const uint8_t *address) { - memcpy(_address, address, sizeof(_address)); + memcpy(_address.bytes, address, sizeof(_address.bytes)); } IPAddress& IPAddress::operator=(const uint8_t *address) { - memcpy(_address, address, sizeof(_address)); + memcpy(_address.bytes, address, sizeof(_address.bytes)); return *this; } IPAddress& IPAddress::operator=(uint32_t address) { - memcpy(_address, (const uint8_t *)&address, sizeof(_address)); + _address.dword = address; return *this; } bool IPAddress::operator==(const uint8_t* addr) const { - return memcmp(addr, _address, sizeof(_address)) == 0; + return memcmp(addr, _address.bytes, sizeof(_address.bytes)) == 0; } size_t IPAddress::printTo(Print& p) const @@ -65,10 +65,10 @@ size_t IPAddress::printTo(Print& p) const size_t n = 0; for (int i =0; i < 3; i++) { - n += p.print(_address[i], DEC); + n += p.print(_address.bytes[i], DEC); n += p.print('.'); } - n += p.print(_address[3], DEC); + n += p.print(_address.bytes[3], DEC); return n; } diff --git a/cores/arduino/IPAddress.h b/cores/arduino/IPAddress.h index 6ea8127..94acdc4 100644 --- a/cores/arduino/IPAddress.h +++ b/cores/arduino/IPAddress.h @@ -27,12 +27,16 @@ class IPAddress : public Printable { private: - uint8_t _address[4]; // IPv4 address + union { + uint8_t bytes[4]; // IPv4 address + uint32_t dword; + } _address; + // Access the raw byte array containing the address.
