in repository groff.
commit 5c923303a9ef44bb4bc4f44d09799f93193fc079
Author: G. Branden Robinson <[email protected]>
AuthorDate: Thu Mar 7 10:20:17 2024 -0600
[troff]: Fix Savannah #65427 (check fp==nullptr).
* src/roff/troff/node.cpp (ascii_output_file::outc)
(ascii_output_file::outs, put_string, troff_output_file::put)
(ascii_output_file::really_transparent_char)
(ascii_output_file::really_print_line): Guard uses of standard C
library `putc()` and `fputc()` functions with a null pointer check.
They could fail if the output stream has been invalidated. Problem
present from groff's birth and apparently exposed by man-db man's use
of AppArmor. See
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lintian/+bug/2055402> and
follow-up discussion there.
Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65427>. Thanks to an anonymous
submitter for the report.
No apparent performance degradation, even _without_ optimization, on
20 rebuilds of automake.pdf, contrib/mom/examples/*.pdf, and
groff-man-pages.pdf.
