New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com>: NetBSD 8 adds support of AF_CAN (previously it was supported only on Linux). This causes a compilation error in socketmodule.c, because AF_CAN is defined in sys/socket.h, but sys/socket.h itself doesn't contain all necessary definitions for handling AF_CAN addresses. This also exposed other errors. The braces are not balanced if AF_CAN is defined, but CAN_RAW and CAN_BCM are not. PyBytes_AS_STRING() is called for non-bytes.
The proposed patch balances #ifdef/#endif with braces, undefines AF_CAN if it is not usable (following the practice for other AF_* constants), separates support of CAN_RAW and CAN_BCM (only the former is defined on NetBSD 8), adds comments to #endif for helping with navigation, adds the const qualifier to char pointers that always point to constant data, fixes indentation. This fixed a compilation on NetBSD 8, and I hope this will fix a compilation on other platforms that will add AF_CAN. In a separate issue I'll add a support of AF_CAN on NetBSD (in 3.7 only). ---------- assignee: serhiy.storchaka components: Extension Modules messages: 305439 nosy: serhiy.storchaka priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Fix compiling the socket module on NetBSD 8 and other issues type: compile error versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.6, Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue31927> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
