This oopses on output dependency violations, e.g. two threads doing a
read-modify-write without synchronization, or the one thread nesting
several read-modify-writes. Such bugs are difficult to spot, and tend
to be abusable. I figure we have quite a few of them.
New struct emptypedstr member seqno. Make sure all members of unit
empobj_storage share it. Initialize it in files: main() and
file_sct_init(). Set it in ef_blank() and new ef_set_uid() by calling
new get_seqno(). Use ef_set_uid() when copying objects: swaps(),
doland(), doship(), doplane(), dounit(), delete_old_news(). Step it
in ef_write() by calling new new_seqno().
Factor do_read() out of fillcache() to make it available for
get_seqno().
Make sure all members of unit empobj_storage share it.
Add matching timestamp member to struct comstr, struct empobj, struct
gamestr, struct lonstr, struct natstr, struct nwsstr, struct trdstr,
struct trtstr. The timestamp isn't yet set for these. To be fixed.
Move the timestamp member to the right place in struct lndstr, struct
loststr, struct realmstr, struct nukstr, struct plnstr, struct sctstr,
struct shpstr.
New struct emptypedstr to avoid depending on empobj.h there.
Remove now superfluous manual initializations elsewhere.
This doesn't fix any missing initializations.
Make sure all members of unit empobj_storage share uid in addition to
ef_type.
Add matching uid member to struct gamestr, struct natstr and struct
sctstr, and set them.
Swap struct empobj members uid and own to make that easier, and update
struct comstr, struct lndstr, struct lonstr, struct loststr, struct
nwsstr, struct nukstr, struct plnstr, struct realmstr, struct shpstr,
struct trdstr, struct trtstr accordingly.
Note that the uid isn't properly set for struct nwsstr, struct lonstr,
struct trdstr, struct comstr and struct loststr. To be fixed.
other. Ensure headers in include/ can be included in any order
(except for econfig-spec.h, which is special). New header types.h to
help avoid inclusion cycles. Sort include directives. Remove some
superflous includes.
oprange, show_mission, nameofitem, build_mission_list_type,
unit_map, xdvisible, trdswitchown, ontradingblock, trad, check_trade,
unit_type_name, start_stop_unit, scut, scra, mission, multifire,
perform_mission, fuel, NSC_GENITEM): Replace struct genitem with
struct empobj. Remove genitem.h and create a new file empobj.h.
Replace multiple instances of unions of ef_type structures with
one standard union empobj_storage which is a superset of the individual
instances.
player->owner is no longer used. Use it to indicate that owner can be
accessed through struct genitem, similar to EFF_XY and EFF_GROUP.
(xdump): Fix ownership checking. Old version worked only when
nxtitem() set player->owner.
(empfile): Set EFF_OWNER for EF_LOST. This fixes `xdump lost'
disclosing other countries' losses.
(loststr): Document implications of EFF_OWNER.
(empfile): Set EFF_OWNER for EF_NATION.
(natstr): Rearrange members for EFF_OWNER, document.
(nat_ca): Unused so far. Clean it up, add most missing selectors.
(fileinit): Use it. This implements `xdump nation'.
(fileinit): Simplify setting map file size.
