The optimisation in write_remoting_arg for sizing, marshalling,
unmarshalling and freeing ref pointers to base types directly was
broken in d458a599eb and caused
unnecessary calls to pointer marshalling functions.
The same was true for a similar optimisation for simple structures
where their size can be pre-calculated, freeing omitted and the
NdrSimpleStructMarshall/Unmarshall functions called directly instead
of calling NdrPointerMarshall/Unmarshall first.
Fix this by looking at the type of the referrent instead of the type
of the pointer, making sure to not classify user types as simple
structures.
Additionally remove some dead code that would never be executed
because the code is in an RPC_FC_RP case, inside a !is_ptr if block
(and RPC_FC_RP is a pointer type).
Replace code to calculate the size of RPC_FC_STRUCT types with
fields_memsize since the memory size of these types will always be
equal to the buffer size.
Remove dead code in get_required_buffer_size.
Descend through as many pointer types as necessary to find the
fundamental type and determine whether it needs a top-level parameter
conformance/variance expression to be written.
Add support for writing top-level parameter conformance/variance
expressions for non-encapsulated unions.
The 8 bytes are for the variance and offset and are added just before
the array, as seen in the marshalling code in rpcrt4. No offset needs
to be added for non-varying structures since the buffer mark is set
after the conformance in marshalled or unmarshalled.
Do so by calculating the alignment of members when iterating through
the structures and adding it onto the buffer and memory offsets.
Only call type_memsize once elsewhere in the embedded pointer
processing functions since the return value will be the same from the
second call.
The conformance needs to be added on to the offset in the buffer so
set this before calling each the writer of each class of pointer
description in write_pointer_description.
Pass the passed in offsets to buffer and memory to
write_pointer_description_offsets in
write_varying_array_pointer_descriptions.
This is because write_string_tfs has support for the full range of
string types, write_simple_pointer doesn't have access to the var
attributes which are needed to properly detect strings, and
write_string_tfs sets the typestring offset to after the pointer is
written and write_remoting_arg depends on this.
is_ptr cannot be used because it follows the chain of types into the
type which has the context_handle attribute, which is typically "void *"
and so causes these context handles to be incorrectly detected as
context handles. Instead, we can use is_aliaschain_ptr to follow the
chain of aliases without following pointers and the absence of the
context_handle attribute indicates that it must be present on a type
after following a pointer.
Fix the is_string_type function used for detecting strings by only
examining aliases instead of both aliases and pointers. This is due to
the requirement that pointers to strings be handled as pointers and so
not detected as strings.
It doesn't matter whether or not the array is declared as a pointer or
is declared using array subscripts - the array is still allocated by the
unmarshalling function and so needs to be freed.
Fix a typo that caused varying arrays never to be freed.
Fix another typo with the check for conformant arrays being performed
twice, redundantly.
Otherwise, writing a type at top-level could cause the pointer format
string to be used in non-top-level places which may cause memory
corruption during freeing.
