Subject: [PATCH 4/8] Addition of clang nullability qualifiers.
Date: Tue, 04 Apr 2017 07:25:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1491289499-30548-5-git-send-email-sebastian.huber@embedded-brains.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1491289499-30548-1-git-send-email-sebastian.huber@embedded-brains.de>
From: pfg <pfg@FreeBSD.org>
Add two new qualifiers for use by the static checkers:
_Nonnull
The _Nonnull nullability qualifier indicates that null is not a meaningful
value for a value of the _Nonnull pointer type.
_Nullable
The _Nullable nullability qualifier indicates that a value of the
_Nullable pointer type can be null.
These were introduced in Clang 3.7. For more information, see:
http://clang.llvm.org/docs/AttributeReference.html#nonnull
We add these now without using them so that the GCC ports have time to
pick up the header change.
