Previously print_header() used sprintf() of a buffer to itself as a
kind of string builder but without checking for overflows. This
raised -Wformat-truncation and -Wrestrict warnings in GCC. Instead,
just conditionally print the new timestamp fields after the initial
strftime()-formatted string. While here, use sizeof(buf) with
strftime() rather than a magic number.

Fixes: 3cbf98e2be diff: read whole files to determine if they are ASCII text
Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D36813
(cherry picked from commit 4e0771714d)
When -B or -I are used, change() evaluates the lines in a hunk to
determine if it is a hunk that should be ignored. It does this by
reading each candidate line into a mallocated buffer via preadline()
and then calling ignoreline(). Previously the buffer was freed as a
side effect of ignoreline_pattern() called from ignoreline().
However, if only -B was specified, then ignoreline_pattern() was not
called and the lines were leaked. If both options were specified,
then ignoreline_pattern() was called before checking for a blank line
so that the second check was a use after free.
To fix, pull the free() out of ignoreline_pattern() and instead do it
up in change() so that is paired with preadline().
While here, simplify ignoreline() by checking for the -B and -I cases
individually without a separate clause for when both are set. Also,
do the cheaper check (-B) first, and remove a false comment (this
function is only called if at least one of -I or -B are specified).

When diff hits certain access errors, function diffreg() shows the error
message, and then returns to the calling function, which calls
print_status() with the return value.
However, in these cases, the return value isn't changed from the initial
default value of D_SAME.
Normally, print_status() with a value of D_SAME does nothing, so this
works out ok, however, if the "-s" flag is set, a message is displayed
showing identicality:
case D_SAME:
if (sflag)
printf("Files %s%s and %s%s are identical\n", path1, entry, path2, entry);
break;
This then produces such results as:
% diff -s /COPYRIGHT /var/run/rpcbind.sock
diff: /var/run/rpcbind.sock: Operation not supported
Files /COPYRIGHT and /var/run/rpcbind.sock are identical
% diff -s /COPYRIGHT /etc/master.passwd
diff: /etc/master.passwd: Permission denied
Files /COPYRIGHT and /etc/master.passwd are identical
Create a D_ERROR status which is returned in such cases, and
print_status() then deals with that status seperately from D_SAME

It's currently unclear to me how this could have worked previously; \n here
is not a literal newline but actual '\' 'n', and was getting passed to the
underlying regex engine as such. regex(3) does not translate this to a
newline, and this became an error because we don't really allow escaping
of arbitrary ordinary characters anymore.
Run the pattern strings through printf to make sure we're dealing with real
newlines before passing them through to atf_check, which ultimately feeds
them directly to regcomp(3).
This fix is different than that will be needed for sed, in that this is the
proper way to inject newlines into search strings as long as regex(3)
won't combine \ + n as folks might expect.

This may happen, for instance, if one happens to have an alias of diff to
diff -up and attempts to specify the amount of context on top of that.
Aliases like this may cause other problems, but if they're really not ever
generating non-unified diffs then we should at least not break that
use-case.
In addition, we'll now pick up a format mismatch if -p is specified with
!contextual && !unified && !unset.
Fix up a small trailing whitespace nit in the tests while we're here, and
add tests to make sure that we can double up all the formatting options.

This matches GNU diff(1) behavior and, more importantly, eliminates any
source of confusion if multiple formatting options are specified.
Note that the committed diff differs slightly from the submitted: I've
modified it so that we initialize diff_format to something that isn't an
accepted format option so that we can also reject --normal -c and -c
--normal, which would've otherwise been accepted because the default was
--normal. After option parsing we default it to D_NORMAL if it's still
unset.

--tabsize was previously listed as optional_argument, but didn't account for
the optionality of it in the argument handling. This is irrelevant -- the
manpage doesn't indicate that the argument is optional, and indeed there's
no clear interpretation of omitting the argument because there's no other
side effect of --tabsize.
The "malformed" argument part of the header on this message is simply
referring to usage like this:
% diff --tabsize 4 A B
With an optional_argument, the argument must be attached to the parameter
directly (e.g. --tabsize=4), so the argument is effectively NULL with the
above invocation as if no argument had been passed.

function to try and keep the logic cleaner.
As noted by cem in r338035, coccinelle invokes diff(1) with the -B flag.
This was not previously implemented here, so one was forced to create a link
for GNU diff to /usr/local/bin/diff
Implement the -B flag and add some primitive tests for it. It is implemented
in the same fashion that -I is implemented; each chunk's lines are scanned,
and if a non-blank line is encountered then the chunk will be output.
Otherwise, it's skipped.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Initially, only tag files that use BSD 4-Clause "Original" license.
