When sorting, both the C11 standard (ISO/IEC 9899:2011, K.3.6.3.2) and

zero size as undefined behaviour. However Microsoft's cpp-docs does.

Add proper checks for this. Found while working on bsort(3).

Alter the prototype of qsort_r(3) to match POSIX, which adopted the
glibc-based interface.

Unfortunately, the glibc maintainers, despite knowing the existence
of the FreeBSD qsort_r(3) interface in 2004 and refused to add the
same interface to glibc based on grounds of the lack of standardization
and portability concerns, has decided it was a good idea to introduce
their own qsort_r(3) interface in 2007 as a GNU extension with a
slightly different and incompatible interface.

With the adoption of their interface as POSIX standard, let's switch
to the same prototype, there is no need to remain incompatible.

C++ and C applications written for the historical FreeBSD interface
get source level compatibility when building in C++ mode, or when
building with a C compiler with C11 generics support, provided that
the caller passes a fifth parameter of qsort_r() that exactly matches
the historical FreeBSD comparator function pointer type and does not
redefine the historical qsort_r(3) prototype in their source code.

Symbol versioning is used to keep old binaries working.

qsort.c: prevent undefined behavior

Mark Milliard has detected a case of undefined behavior with the LLVM
UBSAN. The mandoc program called qsort with a==NULL and n==0, which is
allowed by the POSIX standard. The qsort() in FreeBSD did not attempt
to perform any accesses using the passed pointer for n==0, but it did
add an offset to the pointer value, which is undefined behavior in
case of a NULL pointer. This operation has no adverse effects on any
achitecture supported by FreeBSD, but could be caught in more strict
environments.

After some discussion in the freebsd-current mail list, it was
concluded that the case of a==NULL and n!=0 should still be caught by
UBSAN (or cause a program abort due to an illegal access) in order to
not hide errors in programs incorrectly invoking qsort().

Only the the case of a==NULL and n==0 should be fixed to not perform
the undefined operation on a NULL pointer.

This commit makes qsort() exit before reaching the point of
potentially undefined behvior for the case n==0, but does not test
the value of a, since the result will not depend on whether this
pointer is NULL or an actual pointer to an array if n==0.

The issue found by Mark Milliard in the whatis command has been
reported to the upstream (OpenBSD) and has already been patched
there.

libc qsort(3): Eliminate ambiguous sign comparison

The left side of the MIN() expression is the (signed) result of pointer
subtraction (ptrdiff_t). The right hand side is the also the (signed)
result of pointer subtraction, additionally subtracting the element size
('es'), which is unsigned size_t. This coerces the right-hand
expression into an unsigned value. MIN(signed, unsigned) triggers
-Wsign-compare.

Sorting elements of size greater than SSIZE_MAX is nonsensical, so we
can instead treat the element size as ssize_t, leaving the right-hand
result the same signedness as the left.

libc/qsort: Don't allow interposing recursive calls

This causes problems when using ASAN with a runtime older than 12.0 since
the intercept does not expect qsort() to call itself using an interposable
function call. This results in infinite recursion and stack exhaustion
when a binary compiled with -fsanitize=address calls qsort.
See also https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46832 and
https://reviews.llvm.org/D84509 (ASAN runtime patch).

To prevent this problem, this patch uses a static helper function
for the actual qsort() implementation. This prevents interposition and
allows for direct calls. As a nice side-effect, we can also move the
qsort_s checks to the top-level function and out of the recursive calls.

General further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.

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.
