- - - -[page xii] (Contents) - - Foreword -1 ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International - Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide - standardization. National bodies that are member of ISO or IEC participate in the - development of International Standards through technical committees established by the - respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC - technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international - organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also - take part in the work. -2 International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC - Directives, Part 2. This International Standard was drafted in accordance with the fifth - edition (2004). -3 In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical - committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical - committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International - Standard requires approval by at least 75% of the national bodies casting a vote. -4 Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be - the subject of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any - or all such patent rights. -5 This International Standard was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, - Information technology, Subcommittee SC 22, Programming languages, their - environments and system software interfaces. The Working Group responsible for this - standard (WG 14) maintains a site on the World Wide Web at http://www.open- - std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG14/ containing additional information relevant to this - standard such as a Rationale for many of the decisions made during its preparation and a - log of Defect Reports and Responses. -6 This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, ISO/IEC 9899:1999, as - corrected by ISO/IEC 9899:1999/Cor 1:2001, ISO/IEC 9899:1999/Cor 2:2004, and - ISO/IEC 9899:1999/Cor 3:2007.

In accordance with Part 2 of - the ISO/IEC Directives, this foreword, the introduction, notes, footnotes, and examples - are also for information only. - - - - -[page xvi] (Contents) - - Introduction -1 With the introduction of new devices and extended character sets, new features may be - added to this International Standard. Subclauses in the language and library clauses warn - implementors and programmers of usages which, though valid in themselves, may - conflict with future additions. -2 Certain features are obsolescent, which means that they may be considered for - withdrawal in future revisions of this International Standard. They are retained because - of their widespread use, but their use in new implementations (for implementation - features) or new programs (for language [6.11] or library features [7.30]) is discouraged. -3 This International Standard is divided into four major subdivisions: - -- preliminary elements (clauses 1-4); - -- the characteristics of environments that translate and execute C programs (clause 5); - -- the language syntax, constraints, and semantics (clause 6); - -- the library facilities (clause 7). -4 Examples are provided to illustrate possible forms of the constructions described. - Footnotes are provided to emphasize consequences of the rules described in that - subclause or elsewhere in this International Standard. References are used to refer to - other related subclauses. Recommendations are provided to give advice or guidance to - implementors. Annexes provide additional information and summarize the information - contained in this International Standard. A bibliography lists documents that were - referred to during the preparation of the standard. -5 The language clause (clause 6) is derived from ''The C Reference Manual''. -6 The library clause (clause 7) is based on the 1984 /usr/group Standard. - - - - -[page xvii] (Contents) - - - -[page xviii] (Contents) - - - - Programming languages -- C - - - - 1. Scope -1 This International Standard specifies the form and establishes the interpretation of - programs written in the C programming language.1) It specifies - -- the representation of C programs; - -- the syntax and constraints of the C language; - -- the semantic rules for interpreting C programs; - -- the representation of input data to be processed by C programs; - -- the representation of output data produced by C programs; - -- the restrictions and limits imposed by a conforming implementation of C. -2 This International Standard does not specify - -- the mechanism by which C programs are transformed for use by a data-processing - system; - -- the mechanism by which C programs are invoked for use by a data-processing - system; - -- the mechanism by which input data are transformed for use by a C program; - -- the mechanism by which output data are transformed after being produced by a C - program; - -- the size or complexity of a program and its data that will exceed the capacity of any - specific data-processing system or the capacity of a particular processor; - -- all minimal requirements of a data-processing system that is capable of supporting a - conforming implementation. - - - 1) This International Standard is designed to promote the portability of C programs among a variety of - data-processing systems. It is intended for use by implementors and programmers. - -[page 1] (Contents) - - - 2.

Conformance -1 In this International Standard, ''shall'' is to be interpreted as a requirement on an - implementation or on a program; conversely, ''shall not'' is to be interpreted as a - prohibition. -2 If a ''shall'' or ''shall not'' requirement that appears outside of a constraint or runtime- - constraint is violated, the behavior is undefined. Undefined behavior is otherwise - indicated in this International Standard by the words ''undefined behavior'' or by the - omission of any explicit definition of behavior. There is no difference in emphasis among - these three; they all describe ''behavior that is undefined''. -3 A program that is correct in all other aspects, operating on correct data, containing - unspecified behavior shall be a correct program and act in accordance with 5.1.2.3. -4 The implementation shall not successfully translate a preprocessing translation unit - containing a #error preprocessing directive unless it is part of a group skipped by - conditional inclusion. -5 A strictly conforming program shall use only those features of the language and library - specified in this International Standard.3) It shall not produce output dependent on any - unspecified, undefined, or implementation-defined behavior, and shall not exceed any - minimum implementation limit. -6 The two forms of conforming implementation are hosted and freestanding. A conforming - hosted implementation shall accept any strictly conforming program. A conforming - freestanding implementation shall accept any strictly conforming program that does not - use complex types and in which the use of the features specified in the library clause - (clause 7) is confined to the contents of the standard headers <float.h>, - <iso646.h>, <limits.h>, <stdalign.h>, <stdarg.h>, <stdbool.h>, - <stddef.h>, and <stdint.h>. A conforming implementation may have extensions - (including additional library functions), provided they do not alter the behavior of any - strictly conforming program.4) - - - - 3) A strictly conforming program can use conditional features (see 6.10.8.3) provided the use is guarded - by an appropriate conditional inclusion preprocessing directive using the related macro. For example: - #ifdef __STDC_IEC_559__ /* FE_UPWARD defined */ - /* ... */ - fesetround(FE_UPWARD); - /* ... */ - #endif - - 4) This implies that a conforming implementation reserves no identifiers other than those explicitly - reserved in this International Standard. - -[page 8] (Contents) - -7 A conforming program is one that is acceptable to a conforming implementation.5) -8 An implementation shall be accompanied by a document that defines all implementation- - defined and locale-specific characteristics and all extensions. - Forward references: conditional inclusion (6.10.1), error directive (6.10.5), - characteristics of floating types <float.h> (7.7), alternative spellings <iso646.h> - (7.9), sizes of integer types <limits.h> (7.10), alignment <stdalign.h> (7.15), - variable arguments <stdarg.h> (7.16), boolean type and values <stdbool.h> - (7.18), common definitions <stddef.h> (7.19), integer types <stdint.h> (7.20). - - - - - 5) Strictly conforming programs are intended to be maximally portable among conforming - implementations. Conforming programs may depend upon nonportable features of a conforming - implementation. - -[page 9] (Contents) - - - 5. Environment -1 An implementation translates C source files and executes C programs in two data- - processing-system environments, which will be called the translation environment and - the execution environment in this International Standard. Their characteristics define and - constrain the results of executing conforming C programs constructed according to the - syntactic and semantic rules for conforming implementations. - Forward references: In this clause, only a few of many possible forward references - have been noted. - 5.1 Conceptual models - 5.1.1 Translation environment - 5.1.1.1 Program structure -1 A C program need not all be translated at the same time. The text of the program is kept - in units called source files, (or preprocessing files) in this International Standard. A - source file together with all the headers and source files included via the preprocessing - directive #include is known as a preprocessing translation unit. After preprocessing, a - preprocessing translation unit is called a translation unit. Previously translated translation - units may be preserved individually or in libraries. The separate translation units of a - program communicate by (for example) calls to functions whose identifiers have external - linkage, manipulation of objects whose identifiers have external linkage, or manipulation - of data files. Translation units may be separately translated and then later linked to - produce an executable program. - Forward references: linkages of identifiers (6.2.2), external definitions (6.9), - preprocessing directives (6.10). - 5.1.1.2 Translation phases -1 The precedence among the syntax rules of translation is specified by the following - phases.6) - 1. Physical source file multibyte characters are mapped, in an implementation- - defined manner, to the source character set (introducing new-line characters for - end-of-line indicators) if necessary. Trigraph sequences are replaced by - corresponding single-character internal representations. - - - - 6) Implementations shall behave as if these separate phases occur, even though many are typically folded - together in practice. Source files, translation units, and translated translation units need not - necessarily be stored as files, nor need there be any one-to-one correspondence between these entities - and any external representation. The description is conceptual only, and does not specify any - particular implementation. - -[page 10] (Contents) - - 2. Each instance of a backslash character (\) immediately followed by a new-line - character is deleted, splicing physical source lines to form logical source lines. - Only the last backslash on any physical source line shall be eligible for being part - of such a splice. A source file that is not empty shall end in a new-line character, - which shall not be immediately preceded by a backslash character before any such - splicing takes place. - 3. The source file is decomposed into preprocessing tokens7) and sequences of - white-space characters (including comments). A source file shall not end in a - partial preprocessing token or in a partial comment. Each comment is replaced by - one space character. New-line characters are retained. Whether each nonempty - sequence of white-space characters other than new-line is retained or replaced by - one space character is implementation-defined. - 4. Preprocessing directives are executed, macro invocations are expanded, and - _Pragma unary operator expressions are executed. If a character sequence that - matches the syntax of a universal character name is produced by token - concatenation (6.10.3.3), the behavior is undefined. A #include preprocessing - directive causes the named header or source file to be processed from phase 1 - through phase 4, recursively. All preprocessing directives are then deleted. - 5. Each source character set member and escape sequence in character constants and - string literals is converted to the corresponding member of the execution character - set; if there is no corresponding member, it is converted to an implementation- - defined member other than the null (wide) character.8) - 6. Adjacent string literal tokens are concatenated. - 7. White-space characters separating tokens are no longer significant. Each - preprocessing token is converted into a token. The resulting tokens are - syntactically and semantically analyzed and translated as a translation unit. - 8. All external object and function references are resolved. Library components are - linked to satisfy external references to functions and objects not defined in the - current translation. All such translator output is collected into a program image - which contains information needed for execution in its execution environment. -Forward references: universal character names (6.4.3), lexical elements (6.4), -preprocessing directives (6.10), trigraph sequences (5.2.1.1), external definitions (6.9). - - - -7) As described in 6.4, the process of dividing a source file's characters into preprocessing tokens is - context-dependent. For example, see the handling of < within a #include preprocessing directive. -8) An implementation need not convert all non-corresponding source characters to the same execution - character. - -[page 11] (Contents) - - 5.1.1.3 Diagnostics -1 A conforming implementation shall produce at least one diagnostic message (identified in - an implementation-defined manner) if a preprocessing translation unit or translation unit - contains a violation of any syntax rule or constraint, even if the behavior is also explicitly - specified as undefined or implementation-defined. Diagnostic messages need not be - produced in other circumstances.9) -2 EXAMPLE An implementation shall issue a diagnostic for the translation unit: - char i; - int i; - because in those cases where wording in this International Standard describes the behavior for a construct - as being both a constraint error and resulting in undefined behavior, the constraint error shall be diagnosed. - - 5.1.2 Execution environments -1 Two execution environments are defined: freestanding and hosted. In both cases, - program startup occurs when a designated C function is called by the execution - environment. All objects with static storage duration shall be initialized (set to their - initial values) before program startup. The manner and timing of such initialization are - otherwise unspecified. Program termination returns control to the execution - environment. - Forward references: storage durations of objects (6.2.4), initialization (6.7.9). - 5.1.2.1 Freestanding environment -1 In a freestanding environment (in which C program execution may take place without any - benefit of an operating system), the name and type of the function called at program - startup are implementation-defined. Any library facilities available to a freestanding - program, other than the minimal set required by clause 4, are implementation-defined. -2 The effect of program termination in a freestanding environment is implementation- - defined. - 5.1.2.2 Hosted environment -1 A hosted environment need not be provided, but shall conform to the following - specifications if present. - - - - - 9) The intent is that an implementation should identify the nature of, and where possible localize, each - violation. Of course, an implementation is free to produce any number of diagnostics as long as a - valid program is still correctly translated. It may also successfully translate an invalid program. - -[page 12] (Contents) - - 5.1.2.2.1 Program startup -1 The function called at program startup is named main. The implementation declares no - prototype for this function. It shall be defined with a return type of int and with no - parameters: - int main(void) { /* ... */ } - or with two parameters (referred to here as argc and argv, though any names may be - used, as they are local to the function in which they are declared): - int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { /* ... */ } - or equivalent;10) or in some other implementation-defined manner. -2 If they are declared, the parameters to the main function shall obey the following - constraints: - -- The value of argc shall be nonnegative. - -- argv[argc] shall be a null pointer. - -- If the value of argc is greater than zero, the array members argv[0] through - argv[argc-1] inclusive shall contain pointers to strings, which are given - implementation-defined values by the host environment prior to program startup. The - intent is to supply to the program information determined prior to program startup - from elsewhere in the hosted environment. If the host environment is not capable of - supplying strings with letters in both uppercase and lowercase, the implementation - shall ensure that the strings are received in lowercase. - -- If the value of argc is greater than zero, the string pointed to by argv[0] - represents the program name; argv[0][0] shall be the null character if the - program name is not available from the host environment. If the value of argc is - greater than one, the strings pointed to by argv[1] through argv[argc-1] - represent the program parameters. - -- The parameters argc and argv and the strings pointed to by the argv array shall - be modifiable by the program, and retain their last-stored values between program - startup and program termination. - 5.1.2.2.2 Program execution -1 In a hosted environment, a program may use all the functions, macros, type definitions, - and objects described in the library clause (clause 7). - - - - - 10) Thus, int can be replaced by a typedef name defined as int, or the type of argv can be written as - char ** argv, and so on. - -[page 13] (Contents) - - 5.1.2.2.3 Program termination -1 If the return type of the main function is a type compatible with int, a return from the - initial call to the main function is equivalent to calling the exit function with the value - returned by the main function as its argument;11) reaching the } that terminates the - main function returns a value of 0. If the return type is not compatible with int, the - termination status returned to the host environment is unspecified. - Forward references: definition of terms (7.1.1), the exit function (7.22.4.4). - 5.1.2.3 Program execution -1 The semantic descriptions in this International Standard describe the behavior of an - abstract machine in which issues of optimization are irrelevant. -2 Accessing a volatile object, modifying an object, modifying a file, or calling a function - that does any of those operations are all side effects,12) which are changes in the state of - the execution environment. Evaluation of an expression in general includes both value - computations and initiation of side effects. Value computation for an lvalue expression - includes determining the identity of the designated object. -3 Sequenced before is an asymmetric, transitive, pair-wise relation between evaluations - executed by a single thread, which induces a partial order among those evaluations. - Given any two evaluations A and B, if A is sequenced before B, then the execution of A - shall precede the execution of B. (Conversely, if A is sequenced before B, then B is - sequenced after A.) If A is not sequenced before or after B, then A and B are - unsequenced. Evaluations A and B are indeterminately sequenced when A is sequenced - either before or after B, but it is unspecified which.13) The presence of a sequence point - between the evaluation of expressions A and B implies that every value computation and - side effect associated with A is sequenced before every value computation and side effect - associated with B. (A summary of the sequence points is given in annex C.) -4 In the abstract machine, all expressions are evaluated as specified by the semantics. An - actual implementation need not evaluate part of an expression if it can deduce that its - value is not used and that no needed side effects are produced (including any caused by - - 11) In accordance with 6.2.4, the lifetimes of objects with automatic storage duration declared in main - will have ended in the former case, even where they would not have in the latter. - 12) The IEC 60559 standard for binary floating-point arithmetic requires certain user-accessible status - flags and control modes. Floating-point operations implicitly set the status flags; modes affect result - values of floating-point operations. Implementations that support such floating-point state are - required to regard changes to it as side effects -- see annex F for details. The floating-point - environment library <fenv.h> provides a programming facility for indicating when these side - effects matter, freeing the implementations in other cases. - 13) The executions of unsequenced evaluations can interleave. Indeterminately sequenced evaluations - cannot interleave, but can be executed in any order. - -[page 14] (Contents) - - calling a function or accessing a volatile object). -5 When the processing of the abstract machine is interrupted by receipt of a signal, the - values of objects that are neither lock-free atomic objects nor of type volatile - sig_atomic_t are unspecified, and the value of any object that is modified by the - handler that is neither a lock-free atomic object nor of type volatile - sig_atomic_t becomes undefined. -6 The least requirements on a conforming implementation are: - -- Accesses to volatile objects are evaluated strictly according to the rules of the abstract - machine. - -- At program termination, all data written into files shall be identical to the result that - execution of the program according to the abstract semantics would have produced. - -- The input and output dynamics of interactive devices shall take place as specified in - 7.21.3. The intent of these requirements is that unbuffered or line-buffered output - appear as soon as possible, to ensure that prompting messages actually appear prior to - a program waiting for input. - This is the observable behavior of the program. -7 What constitutes an interactive device is implementation-defined. -8 More stringent correspondences between abstract and actual semantics may be defined by - each implementation. -9 EXAMPLE 1 An implementation might define a one-to-one correspondence between abstract and actual - semantics: at every sequence point, the values of the actual objects would agree with those specified by the - abstract semantics. The keyword volatile would then be redundant. -10 Alternatively, an implementation might perform various optimizations within each translation unit, such - that the actual semantics would agree with the abstract semantics only when making function calls across - translation unit boundaries. In such an implementation, at the time of each function entry and function - return where the calling function and the called function are in different translation units, the values of all - externally linked objects and of all objects accessible via pointers therein would agree with the abstract - semantics. Furthermore, at the time of each such function entry the values of the parameters of the called - function and of all objects accessible via pointers therein would agree with the abstract semantics. In this - type of implementation, objects referred to by interrupt service routines activated by the signal function - would require explicit specification of volatile storage, as well as other implementation-defined - restrictions. - -11 EXAMPLE 2 In executing the fragment - char c1, c2; - /* ... */ - c1 = c1 + c2; - the ''integer promotions'' require that the abstract machine promote the value of each variable to int size - and then add the two ints and truncate the sum. Provided the addition of two chars can be done without - overflow, or with overflow wrapping silently to produce the correct result, the actual execution need only - produce the same result, possibly omitting the promotions. - -[page 15] (Contents) - -12 EXAMPLE 3 Similarly, in the fragment - float f1, f2; - double d; - /* ... */ - f1 = f2 * d; - the multiplication may be executed using single-precision arithmetic if the implementation can ascertain - that the result would be the same as if it were executed using double-precision arithmetic (for example, if d - were replaced by the constant 2.0, which has type double). - -13 EXAMPLE 4 Implementations employing wide registers have to take care to honor appropriate - semantics. Values are independent of whether they are represented in a register or in memory. For - example, an implicit spilling of a register is not permitted to alter the value. Also, an explicit store and load - is required to round to the precision of the storage type. In particular, casts and assignments are required to - perform their specified conversion. For the fragment - double d1, d2; - float f; - d1 = f = expression; - d2 = (float) expression; - the values assigned to d1 and d2 are required to have been converted to float. - -14 EXAMPLE 5 Rearrangement for floating-point expressions is often restricted because of limitations in - precision as well as range. The implementation cannot generally apply the mathematical associative rules - for addition or multiplication, nor the distributive rule, because of roundoff error, even in the absence of - overflow and underflow. Likewise, implementations cannot generally replace decimal constants in order to - rearrange expressions. In the following fragment, rearrangements suggested by mathematical rules for real - numbers are often not valid (see F.9). - double x, y, z; - /* ... */ - x = (x * y) * z; // not equivalent to x *= y * z; - z = (x - y) + y ; // not equivalent to z = x; - z = x + x * y; // not equivalent to z = x * (1.0 + y); - y = x / 5.0; // not equivalent to y = x * 0.2; - -15 EXAMPLE 6 To illustrate the grouping behavior of expressions, in the following fragment - int a, b; - /* ... */ - a = a + 32760 + b + 5; - the expression statement behaves exactly the same as - a = (((a + 32760) + b) + 5); - due to the associativity and precedence of these operators. Thus, the result of the sum (a + 32760) is - next added to b, and that result is then added to 5 which results in the value assigned to a. On a machine in - which overflows produce an explicit trap and in which the range of values representable by an int is - [-32768, +32767], the implementation cannot rewrite this expression as - a = ((a + b) + 32765); - since if the values for a and b were, respectively, -32754 and -15, the sum a + b would produce a trap - while the original expression would not; nor can the expression be rewritten either as - - -[page 16] (Contents) - - a = ((a + 32765) + b); - or - a = (a + (b + 32765)); - since the values for a and b might have been, respectively, 4 and -8 or -17 and 12. However, on a machine - in which overflow silently generates some value and where positive and negative overflows cancel, the - above expression statement can be rewritten by the implementation in any of the above ways because the - same result will occur. - -16 EXAMPLE 7 The grouping of an expression does not completely determine its evaluation. In the - following fragment - #include <stdio.h> - int sum; - char *p; - /* ... */ - sum = sum * 10 - '0' + (*p++ = getchar()); - the expression statement is grouped as if it were written as - sum = (((sum * 10) - '0') + ((*(p++)) = (getchar()))); - but the actual increment of p can occur at any time between the previous sequence point and the next - sequence point (the ;), and the call to getchar can occur at any point prior to the need of its returned - value. - - Forward references: expressions (6.5), type qualifiers (6.7.3), statements (6.8), the - signal function (7.14), files (7.21.3). - 5.1.2.4 Multi-threaded executions and data races -1 Under a hosted implementation, a program can have more than one thread of execution - (or thread) running concurrently. The execution of each thread proceeds as defined by - the remainder of this standard. The execution of the entire program consists of an - execution of all of its threads.14) Under a freestanding implementation, it is - implementation-defined whether a program can have more than one thread of execution. -2 The value of an object visible to a thread T at a particular point is the initial value of the - object, a value stored in the object by T , or a value stored in the object by another thread, - according to the rules below. -3 NOTE 1 In some cases, there may instead be undefined behavior. Much of this section is motivated by - the desire to support atomic operations with explicit and detailed visibility constraints. However, it also - implicitly supports a simpler view for more restricted programs. - -4 Two expression evaluations conflict if one of them modifies a memory location and the - other one reads or modifies the same memory location. - - - - - 14) The execution can usually be viewed as an interleaving of all of the threads. However, some kinds of - atomic operations, for example, allow executions inconsistent with a simple interleaving as described - below. - -[page 17] (Contents) - -5 The library defines a number of atomic operations (7.17) and operations on mutexes - (7.25.4) that are specially identified as synchronization operations. These operations play - a special role in making assignments in one thread visible to another. A synchronization - operation on one or more memory locations is either an acquire operation, a release - operation, both an acquire and release operation, or a consume operation. A - synchronization operation without an associated memory location is a fence and can be - either an acquire fence, a release fence, or both an acquire and release fence. In addition, - there are relaxed atomic operations, which are not synchronization operations, and - atomic read-modify-write operations, which have special characteristics. -6 NOTE 2 For example, a call that acquires a mutex will perform an acquire operation on the locations - composing the mutex. Correspondingly, a call that releases the same mutex will perform a release - operation on those same locations. Informally, performing a release operation on A forces prior side effects - on other memory locations to become visible to other threads that later perform an acquire or consume - operation on A. We do not include relaxed atomic operations as synchronization operations although, like - synchronization operations, they cannot contribute to data races. - -7 All modifications to a particular atomic object M occur in some particular total order, - called the modification order of M. If A and B are modifications of an atomic object M, - and A happens before B, then A shall precede B in the modification order of M, which is - defined below. -8 NOTE 3 This states that the modification orders must respect the ''happens before'' relation. - -9 NOTE 4 There is a separate order for each atomic object. There is no requirement that these can be - combined into a single total order for all objects. In general this will be impossible since different threads - may observe modifications to different variables in inconsistent orders. - -10 A release sequence on an atomic object M is a maximal contiguous sub-sequence of side - effects in the modification order of M, where the first operation is a release and every - subsequent operation either is performed by the same thread that performed the release or - is an atomic read-modify-write operation. -11 Certain library calls synchronize with other library calls performed by another thread. In - particular, an atomic operation A that performs a release operation on an object M - synchronizes with an atomic operation B that performs an acquire operation on M and - reads a value written by any side effect in the release sequence headed by A. -12 NOTE 5 Except in the specified cases, reading a later value does not necessarily ensure visibility as - described below. Such a requirement would sometimes interfere with efficient implementation. - -13 NOTE 6 The specifications of the synchronization operations define when one reads the value written by - another. For atomic variables, the definition is clear. All operations on a given mutex occur in a single total - order. Each mutex acquisition ''reads the value written'' by the last mutex release. - -14 An evaluation A carries a dependency 15) to an evaluation B if: - - - 15) The ''carries a dependency'' relation is a subset of the ''sequenced before'' relation, and is similarly - strictly intra-thread. - -[page 18] (Contents) - - -- the value of A is used as an operand of B, unless: - o B is an invocation of the kill_dependency macro, - - o A is the left operand of a && or || operator, - - o A is the left operand of a ? : operator, or - - o A is the left operand of a , operator; - or - -- A writes a scalar object or bit-field M, B reads from M the value written by A, and A - is sequenced before B, or - -- for some evaluation X, A carries a dependency to X and X carries a dependency to B. -15 An evaluation A is dependency-ordered before16) an evaluation B if: - -- A performs a release operation on an atomic object M, and B performs a consume - operation on M and reads a value written by any side effect in the release sequence - headed by A, or - -- for some evaluation X, A is dependency-ordered before X and X carries a - dependency to B. -16 An evaluation A inter-thread happens before an evaluation B if A synchronizes with B, A - is dependency-ordered before B, or, for some evaluation X: - -- A synchronizes with X and X is sequenced before B, - -- A is sequenced before X and X inter-thread happens before B, or - -- A inter-thread happens before X and X inter-thread happens before B. -17 NOTE 7 The ''inter-thread happens before'' relation describes arbitrary concatenations of ''sequenced - before'', ''synchronizes with'', and ''dependency-ordered before'' relationships, with two exceptions. The - first exception is that a concatenation is not permitted to end with ''dependency-ordered before'' followed - by ''sequenced before''. The reason for this limitation is that a consume operation participating in a - ''dependency-ordered before'' relationship provides ordering only with respect to operations to which this - consume operation actually carries a dependency. The reason that this limitation applies only to the end of - such a concatenation is that any subsequent release operation will provide the required ordering for a prior - consume operation. The second exception is that a concatenation is not permitted to consist entirely of - ''sequenced before''. The reasons for this limitation are (1) to permit ''inter-thread happens before'' to be - transitively closed and (2) the ''happens before'' relation, defined below, provides for relationships - consisting entirely of ''sequenced before''. - -18 An evaluation A happens before an evaluation B if A is sequenced before B or A inter- - thread happens before B. - - - - 16) The ''dependency-ordered before'' relation is analogous to the ''synchronizes with'' relation, but uses - release/consume in place of release/acquire. - -[page 19] (Contents) - -19 A visible side effect A on an object M with respect to a value computation B of M - satisfies the conditions: - -- A happens before B, and - -- there is no other side effect X to M such that A happens before X and X happens - before B. - The value of a non-atomic scalar object M, as determined by evaluation B, shall be the - value stored by the visible side effect A. -20 NOTE 8 If there is ambiguity about which side effect to a non-atomic object is visible, then there is a data - race and the behavior is undefined. - -21 NOTE 9 This states that operations on ordinary variables are not visibly reordered. This is not actually - detectable without data races, but it is necessary to ensure that data races, as defined here, and with suitable - restrictions on the use of atomics, correspond to data races in a simple interleaved (sequentially consistent) - execution. - -22 The visible sequence of side effects on an atomic object M, with respect to a value - computation B of M, is a maximal contiguous sub-sequence of side effects in the - modification order of M, where the first side effect is visible with respect to B, and for - every subsequent side effect, it is not the case that B happens before it. The value of an - atomic object M, as determined by evaluation B, shall be the value stored by some - operation in the visible sequence of M with respect to B. Furthermore, if a value - computation A of an atomic object M happens before a value computation B of M, and - the value computed by A corresponds to the value stored by side effect X, then the value - computed by B shall either equal the value computed by A, or be the value stored by side - effect Y , where Y follows X in the modification order of M. -23 NOTE 10 This effectively disallows compiler reordering of atomic operations to a single object, even if - both operations are ''relaxed'' loads. By doing so, we effectively make the ''cache coherence'' guarantee - provided by most hardware available to C atomic operations. - -24 NOTE 11 The visible sequence depends on the ''happens before'' relation, which in turn depends on the - values observed by loads of atomics, which we are restricting here. The intended reading is that there must - exist an association of atomic loads with modifications they observe that, together with suitably chosen - modification orders and the ''happens before'' relation derived as described above, satisfy the resulting - constraints as imposed here. - -25 The execution of a program contains a data race if it contains two conflicting actions in - different threads, at least one of which is not atomic, and neither happens before the - other. Any such data race results in undefined behavior. -26 NOTE 12 It can be shown that programs that correctly use simple mutexes and - memory_order_seq_cst operations to prevent all data races, and use no other synchronization - operations, behave as though the operations executed by their constituent threads were simply interleaved, - with each value computation of an object being the last value stored in that interleaving. This is normally - referred to as ''sequential consistency''. However, this applies only to data-race-free programs, and data- - race-free programs cannot observe most program transformations that do not change single-threaded - program semantics. In fact, most single-threaded program transformations continue to be allowed, since - any program that behaves differently as a result must contain undefined behavior. - -[page 20] (Contents) - -27 NOTE 13 Compiler transformations that introduce assignments to a potentially shared memory location - that would not be modified by the abstract machine are generally precluded by this standard, since such an - assignment might overwrite another assignment by a different thread in cases in which an abstract machine - execution would not have encountered a data race. This includes implementations of data member - assignment that overwrite adjacent members in separate memory locations. We also generally preclude - reordering of atomic loads in cases in which the atomics in question may alias, since this may violate the - "visible sequence" rules. - -28 NOTE 14 Transformations that introduce a speculative read of a potentially shared memory location may - not preserve the semantics of the program as defined in this standard, since they potentially introduce a data - race. However, they are typically valid in the context of an optimizing compiler that targets a specific - machine with well-defined semantics for data races. They would be invalid for a hypothetical machine that - is not tolerant of races or provides hardware race detection. - - - - -[page 21] (Contents) - - 5.2 Environmental considerations - 5.2.1 Character sets -1 Two sets of characters and their associated collating sequences shall be defined: the set in - which source files are written (the source character set), and the set interpreted in the - execution environment (the execution character set). Each set is further divided into a - basic character set, whose contents are given by this subclause, and a set of zero or more - locale-specific members (which are not members of the basic character set) called - extended characters. The combined set is also called the extended character set. The - values of the members of the execution character set are implementation-defined. -2 In a character constant or string literal, members of the execution character set shall be - represented by corresponding members of the source character set or by escape - sequences consisting of the backslash \ followed by one or more characters. A byte with - all bits set to 0, called the null character, shall exist in the basic execution character set; it - is used to terminate a character string. -3 Both the basic source and basic execution character sets shall have the following - members: the 26 uppercase letters of the Latin alphabet - A B C D E F G H I J K L M - N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z - the 26 lowercase letters of the Latin alphabet - a b c d e f g h i j k l m - n o p q r s t u v w x y z - the 10 decimal digits - 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 - the following 29 graphic characters - ! " # % & ' ( ) * + , - . / : - ; < = > ? [ \ ] ^ _ { | } ~ - the space character, and control characters representing horizontal tab, vertical tab, and - form feed. The representation of each member of the source and execution basic - character sets shall fit in a byte. In both the source and execution basic character sets, the - value of each character after 0 in the above list of decimal digits shall be one greater than - the value of the previous. In source files, there shall be some way of indicating the end of - each line of text; this International Standard treats such an end-of-line indicator as if it - were a single new-line character. In the basic execution character set, there shall be - control characters representing alert, backspace, carriage return, and new line. If any - other characters are encountered in a source file (except in an identifier, a character - constant, a string literal, a header name, a comment, or a preprocessing token that is never - -[page 22] (Contents) - - converted to a token), the behavior is undefined. -4 A letter is an uppercase letter or a lowercase letter as defined above; in this International - Standard the term does not include other characters that are letters in other alphabets. -5 The universal character name construct provides a way to name other characters. - Forward references: universal character names (6.4.3), character constants (6.4.4.4), - preprocessing directives (6.10), string literals (6.4.5), comments (6.4.9), string (7.1.1). - 5.2.1.1 Trigraph sequences -1 Before any other processing takes place, each occurrence of one of the following - sequences of three characters (called trigraph sequences17)) is replaced with the - corresponding single character. - ??= # ??) ] ??! | - ??( [ ??' ^ ??> } - ??/ \ ??< { ??- ~ - No other trigraph sequences exist. Each ? that does not begin one of the trigraphs listed - above is not changed. -2 EXAMPLE 1 - ??=define arraycheck(a, b) a??(b??) ??!??! b??(a??) - becomes - #define arraycheck(a, b) a[b] || b[a] - -3 EXAMPLE 2 The following source line - printf("Eh???/n"); - becomes (after replacement of the trigraph sequence ??/) - printf("Eh?\n"); - - 5.2.1.2 Multibyte characters -1 The source character set may contain multibyte characters, used to represent members of - the extended character set. The execution character set may also contain multibyte - characters, which need not have the same encoding as for the source character set. For - both character sets, the following shall hold: - -- The basic character set shall be present and each character shall be encoded as a - single byte. - -- The presence, meaning, and representation of any additional members is locale- - specific. - - 17) The trigraph sequences enable the input of characters that are not defined in the Invariant Code Set as - described in ISO/IEC 646, which is a subset of the seven-bit US ASCII code set. - -[page 23] (Contents) - - -- A multibyte character set may have a state-dependent encoding, wherein each - sequence of multibyte characters begins in an initial shift state and enters other - locale-specific shift states when specific multibyte characters are encountered in the - sequence. While in the initial shift state, all single-byte characters retain their usual - interpretation and do not alter the shift state. The interpretation for subsequent bytes - in the sequence is a function of the current shift state. - -- A byte with all bits zero shall be interpreted as a null character independent of shift - state. Such a byte shall not occur as part of any other multibyte character. -2 For source files, the following shall hold: - -- An identifier, comment, string literal, character constant, or header name shall begin - and end in the initial shift state. - -- An identifier, comment, string literal, character constant, or header name shall consist - of a sequence of valid multibyte characters. - 5.2.2 Character display semantics -1 The active position is that location on a display device where the next character output by - the fputc function would appear. The intent of writing a printing character (as defined - by the isprint function) to a display device is to display a graphic representation of - that character at the active position and then advance the active position to the next - position on the current line. The direction of writing is locale-specific. If the active - position is at the final position of a line (if there is one), the behavior of the display device - is unspecified. -2 Alphabetic escape sequences representing nongraphic characters in the execution - character set are intended to produce actions on display devices as follows: - \a (alert) Produces an audible or visible alert without changing the active position. - \b (backspace) Moves the active position to the previous position on the current line. If - the active position is at the initial position of a line, the behavior of the display - device is unspecified. - \f ( form feed) Moves the active position to the initial position at the start of the next - logical page. - \n (new line) Moves the active position to the initial position of the next line. - \r (carriage return) Moves the active position to the initial position of the current line. - \t (horizontal tab) Moves the active position to the next horizontal tabulation position - on the current line. If the active position is at or past the last defined horizontal - tabulation position, the behavior of the display device is unspecified. - \v (vertical tab) Moves the active position to the initial position of the next vertical - tabulation position. If the active position is at or past the last defined vertical -[page 24] (Contents) - - tabulation position, the behavior of the display device is unspecified. -3 Each of these escape sequences shall produce a unique implementation-defined value - which can be stored in a single char object. The external representations in a text file - need not be identical to the internal representations, and are outside the scope of this - International Standard. - Forward references: the isprint function (7.4.1.8), the fputc function (7.21.7.3). - 5.2.3 Signals and interrupts -1 Functions shall be implemented such that they may be interrupted at any time by a signal, - or may be called by a signal handler, or both, with no alteration to earlier, but still active, - invocations' control flow (after the interruption), function return values, or objects with - automatic storage duration. All such objects shall be maintained outside the function - image (the instructions that compose the executable representation of a function) on a - per-invocation basis. - 5.2.4 Environmental limits -1 Both the translation and execution environments constrain the implementation of - language translators and libraries. The following summarizes the language-related - environmental limits on a conforming implementation; the library-related limits are - discussed in clause 7. - 5.2.4.1 Translation limits -1 The implementation shall be able to translate and execute at least one program that - contains at least one instance of every one of the following limits:18) - -- 127 nesting levels of blocks - -- 63 nesting levels of conditional inclusion - -- 12 pointer, array, and function declarators (in any combinations) modifying an - arithmetic, structure, union, or void type in a declaration - -- 63 nesting levels of parenthesized declarators within a full declarator - -- 63 nesting levels of parenthesized expressions within a full expression - -- 63 significant initial characters in an internal identifier or a macro name (each - universal character name or extended source character is considered a single - character) - -- 31 significant initial characters in an external identifier (each universal character name - specifying a short identifier of 0000FFFF or less is considered 6 characters, each - - - 18) Implementations should avoid imposing fixed translation limits whenever possible. - -[page 25] (Contents) - - universal character name specifying a short identifier of 00010000 or more is - considered 10 characters, and each extended source character is considered the same - number of characters as the corresponding universal character name, if any)19) - -- 4095 external identifiers in one translation unit - -- 511 identifiers with block scope declared in one block - -- 4095 macro identifiers simultaneously defined in one preprocessing translation unit - -- 127 parameters in one function definition - -- 127 arguments in one function call - -- 127 parameters in one macro definition - -- 127 arguments in one macro invocation - -- 4095 characters in a logical source line - -- 4095 characters in a string literal (after concatenation) - -- 65535 bytes in an object (in a hosted environment only) - -- 15 nesting levels for #included files - -- 1023 case labels for a switch statement (excluding those for any nested switch - statements) - -- 1023 members in a single structure or union - -- 1023 enumeration constants in a single enumeration - -- 63 levels of nested structure or union definitions in a single struct-declaration-list - 5.2.4.2 Numerical limits -1 An implementation is required to document all the limits specified in this subclause, - which are specified in the headers <limits.h> and <float.h>.

A NaN is an encoding signifying Not-a-Number. A quiet NaN propagates - through almost every arithmetic operation without raising a floating-point exception; a - signaling NaN generally raises a floating-point exception when occurring as an - - - 20) See 6.2.5. - 21) The floating-point model is intended to clarify the description of each floating-point characteristic and - does not require the floating-point arithmetic of the implementation to be identical. - -[page 28] (Contents) - - arithmetic operand.22) -4 An implementation may give zero and values that are not floating-point numbers (such as - infinities and NaNs) a sign or may leave them unsigned. Wherever such values are - unsigned, any requirement in this International Standard to retrieve the sign shall produce - an unspecified sign, and any requirement to set the sign shall be ignored. -5 The minimum range of representable values for a floating type is the most negative finite - floating-point number representable in that type through the most positive finite floating- - point number representable in that type. In addition, if negative infinity is representable - in a type, the range of that type is extended to all negative real numbers; likewise, if - positive infinity is representable in a type, the range of that type is extended to all positive - real numbers. -6 The accuracy of the floating-point operations (+, -, *, /) and of the library functions in - <math.h> and <complex.h> that return floating-point results is implementation- - defined, as is the accuracy of the conversion between floating-point internal - representations and string representations performed by the library functions in - <stdio.h>, <stdlib.h>, and <wchar.h>. The implementation may state that the - accuracy is unknown. -7 All integer values in the <float.h> header, except FLT_ROUNDS, shall be constant - expressions suitable for use in #if preprocessing directives; all floating values shall be - constant expressions. All except DECIMAL_DIG, FLT_EVAL_METHOD, FLT_RADIX, - and FLT_ROUNDS have separate names for all three floating-point types. The floating- - point model representation is provided for all values except FLT_EVAL_METHOD and - FLT_ROUNDS. -8 The rounding mode for floating-point addition is characterized by the implementation- - defined value of FLT_ROUNDS:23) - -1 indeterminable - 0 toward zero - 1 to nearest - 2 toward positive infinity - 3 toward negative infinity - All other values for FLT_ROUNDS characterize implementation-defined rounding - behavior. - - - 22) IEC 60559:1989 specifies quiet and signaling NaNs.

For example, if FLT_EVAL_METHOD is 1, then the product of two float - _Complex operands is represented in the double _Complex format, and its parts are evaluated to - double. - 25) Characterization as indeterminable is intended if floating-point operations do not consistently interpret - subnormal representations as zero, nor as nonzero. - 26) Characterization as absent is intended if no floating-point operations produce subnormal results from - non-subnormal inputs, even if the type format includes representations of subnormal numbers. -

Language - 6.1 Notation -1 In the syntax notation used in this clause, syntactic categories (nonterminals) are - indicated by italic type, and literal words and character set members (terminals) by bold - type. A colon (:) following a nonterminal introduces its definition. Alternative - definitions are listed on separate lines, except when prefaced by the words ''one of''. An - optional symbol is indicated by the subscript ''opt'', so that - { expressionopt } - indicates an optional expression enclosed in braces. -2 When syntactic categories are referred to in the main text, they are not italicized and - words are separated by spaces instead of hyphens. -3 A summary of the language syntax is given in annex A. - 6.2 Concepts - 6.2.1 Scopes of identifiers -1 An identifier can denote an object; a function; a tag or a member of a structure, union, or - enumeration; a typedef name; a label name; a macro name; or a macro parameter. The - same identifier can denote different entities at different points in the program. A member - of an enumeration is called an enumeration constant. Macro names and macro - parameters are not considered further here, because prior to the semantic phase of - program translation any occurrences of macro names in the source file are replaced by the - preprocessing token sequences that constitute their macro definitions. -2 For each different entity that an identifier designates, the identifier is visible (i.e., can be - used) only within a region of program text called its scope. Different entities designated - by the same identifier either have different scopes, or are in different name spaces. There - are four kinds of scopes: function, file, block, and function prototype. (A function - prototype is a declaration of a function that declares the types of its parameters.) -3 A label name is the only kind of identifier that has function scope. It can be used (in a - goto statement) anywhere in the function in which it appears, and is declared implicitly - by its syntactic appearance (followed by a : and a statement). -4 Every other identifier has scope determined by the placement of its declaration (in a - declarator or type specifier). If the declarator or type specifier that declares the identifier - appears outside of any block or list of parameters, the identifier has file scope, which - terminates at the end of the translation unit. If the declarator or type specifier that - declares the identifier appears inside a block or within the list of parameter declarations in - a function definition, the identifier has block scope, which terminates at the end of the - associated block. If the declarator or type specifier that declares the identifier appears - -[page 35] (Contents) - - within the list of parameter declarations in a function prototype (not part of a function - definition), the identifier has function prototype scope, which terminates at the end of the - function declarator. If an identifier designates two different entities in the same name - space, the scopes might overlap. If so, the scope of one entity (the inner scope) will end - strictly before the scope of the other entity (the outer scope). Within the inner scope, the - identifier designates the entity declared in the inner scope; the entity declared in the outer - scope is hidden (and not visible) within the inner scope. -5 Unless explicitly stated otherwise, where this International Standard uses the term - ''identifier'' to refer to some entity (as opposed to the syntactic construct), it refers to the - entity in the relevant name space whose declaration is visible at the point the identifier - occurs. -6 Two identifiers have the same scope if and only if their scopes terminate at the same - point. -7 Structure, union, and enumeration tags have scope that begins just after the appearance of - the tag in a type specifier that declares the tag. Each enumeration constant has scope that - begins just after the appearance of its defining enumerator in an enumerator list. Any - other identifier has scope that begins just after the completion of its declarator. -8 As a special case, a type name (which is not a declaration of an identifier) is considered to - have a scope that begins just after the place within the type name where the omitted - identifier would appear were it not omitted. - Forward references: declarations (6.7), function calls (6.5.2.2), function definitions - (6.9.1), identifiers (6.4.2), macro replacement (6.10.3), name spaces of identifiers (6.2.3), - source file inclusion (6.10.2), statements (6.8). - 6.2.2 Linkages of identifiers -1 An identifier declared in different scopes or in the same scope more than once can be - made to refer to the same object or function by a process called linkage.29) There are - three kinds of linkage: external, internal, and none. -2 In the set of translation units and libraries that constitutes an entire program, each - declaration of a particular identifier with external linkage denotes the same object or - function. Within one translation unit, each declaration of an identifier with internal - linkage denotes the same object or function. Each declaration of an identifier with no - linkage denotes a unique entity. -3 If the declaration of a file scope identifier for an object or a function contains the storage- - class specifier static, the identifier has internal linkage.30) - - - - 29) There is no linkage between different identifiers. - -[page 36] (Contents) - -4 For an identifier declared with the storage-class specifier extern in a scope in which a - prior declaration of that identifier is visible,31) if the prior declaration specifies internal or - external linkage, the linkage of the identifier at the later declaration is the same as the - linkage specified at the prior declaration. If no prior declaration is visible, or if the prior - declaration specifies no linkage, then the identifier has external linkage. -5 If the declaration of an identifier for a function has no storage-class specifier, its linkage - is determined exactly as if it were declared with the storage-class specifier extern. If - the declaration of an identifier for an object has file scope and no storage-class specifier, - its linkage is external. -6 The following identifiers have no linkage: an identifier declared to be anything other than - an object or a function; an identifier declared to be a function parameter; a block scope - identifier for an object declared without the storage-class specifier extern. -7 If, within a translation unit, the same identifier appears with both internal and external - linkage, the behavior is undefined. - Forward references: declarations (6.7), expressions (6.5), external definitions (6.9), - statements (6.8). - 6.2.3 Name spaces of identifiers -1 If more than one declaration of a particular identifier is visible at any point in a - translation unit, the syntactic context disambiguates uses that refer to different entities. - Thus, there are separate name spaces for various categories of identifiers, as follows: - -- label names (disambiguated by the syntax of the label declaration and use); - -- the tags of structures, unions, and enumerations (disambiguated by following any32) - of the keywords struct, union, or enum); - -- the members of structures or unions; each structure or union has a separate name - space for its members (disambiguated by the type of the expression used to access the - member via the . or -> operator); - -- all other identifiers, called ordinary identifiers (declared in ordinary declarators or as - enumeration constants). - Forward references: enumeration specifiers (6.7.2.2), labeled statements (6.8.1), - structure and union specifiers (6.7.2.1), structure and union members (6.5.2.3), tags - (6.7.2.3), the goto statement (6.8.6.1). - - 30) A function declaration can contain the storage-class specifier static only if it is at file scope; see - 6.7.1. - 31) As specified in 6.2.1, the later declaration might hide the prior declaration. - 32) There is only one name space for tags even though three are possible. - -[page 37] (Contents) - - 6.2.4 Storage durations of objects -1 An object has a storage duration that determines its lifetime. There are four storage - durations: static, thread, automatic, and allocated. Allocated storage is described in - 7.22.3. -2 The lifetime of an object is the portion of program execution during which storage is - guaranteed to be reserved for it. An object exists, has a constant address,33) and retains - its last-stored value throughout its lifetime.34) If an object is referred to outside of its - lifetime, the behavior is undefined. The value of a pointer becomes indeterminate when - the object it points to (or just past) reaches the end of its lifetime. -3 An object whose identifier is declared without the storage-class specifier - _Thread_local, and either with external or internal linkage or with the storage-class - specifier static, has static storage duration. Its lifetime is the entire execution of the - program and its stored value is initialized only once, prior to program startup. -4 An object whose identifier is declared with the storage-class specifier _Thread_local - has thread storage duration. Its lifetime is the entire execution of the thread for which it - is created, and its stored value is initialized when the thread is started. There is a distinct - object per thread, and use of the declared name in an expression refers to the object - associated with the thread evaluating the expression. The result of attempting to - indirectly access an object with thread storage duration from a thread other than the one - with which the object is associated is implementation-defined. -5 An object whose identifier is declared with no linkage and without the storage-class - specifier static has automatic storage duration, as do some compound literals. The - result of attempting to indirectly access an object with automatic storage duration from a - thread other than the one with which the object is associated is implementation-defined. -6 For such an object that does not have a variable length array type, its lifetime extends - from entry into the block with which it is associated until execution of that block ends in - any way. (Entering an enclosed block or calling a function suspends, but does not end, - execution of the current block.) If the block is entered recursively, a new instance of the - object is created each time. The initial value of the object is indeterminate. If an - initialization is specified for the object, it is performed each time the declaration or - compound literal is reached in the execution of the block; otherwise, the value becomes - indeterminate each time the declaration is reached. - - - - 33) The term ''constant address'' means that two pointers to the object constructed at possibly different - times will compare equal. The address may be different during two different executions of the same - program. - 34) In the case of a volatile object, the last store need not be explicit in the program. - -[page 38] (Contents) - -7 For such an object that does have a variable length array type, its lifetime extends from - the declaration of the object until execution of the program leaves the scope of the - declaration.35) If the scope is entered recursively, a new instance of the object is created - each time. The initial value of the object is indeterminate. -8 A non-lvalue expression with structure or union type, where the structure or union - contains a member with array type (including, recursively, members of all contained - structures and unions) refers to an object with automatic storage duration and temporary - lifetime.36) Its lifetime begins when the expression is evaluated and its initial value is the - value of the expression. Its lifetime ends when the evaluation of the containing full - expression or full declarator ends. Any attempt to modify an object with temporary - lifetime results in undefined behavior. - Forward references: array declarators (6.7.6.2), compound literals (6.5.2.5), declarators - (6.7.6), function calls (6.5.2.2), initialization (6.7.9), statements (6.8). - 6.2.5 Types -1 The meaning of a value stored in an object or returned by a function is determined by the - type of the expression used to access it. (An identifier declared to be an object is the - simplest such expression; the type is specified in the declaration of the identifier.) Types - are partitioned into object types (types that describe objects) and function types (types - that describe functions). At various points within a translation unit an object type may be - incomplete (lacking sufficient information to determine the size of objects of that type) or - complete (having sufficient information).37) -2 An object declared as type _Bool is large enough to store the values 0 and 1. -3 An object declared as type char is large enough to store any member of the basic - execution character set. If a member of the basic execution character set is stored in a - char object, its value is guaranteed to be nonnegative. If any other character is stored in - a char object, the resulting value is implementation-defined but shall be within the range - of values that can be represented in that type. -4 There are five standard signed integer types, designated as signed char, short - int, int, long int, and long long int. (These and other types may be - designated in several additional ways, as described in 6.7.2.) There may also be - implementation-defined extended signed integer types.38) The standard and extended - signed integer types are collectively called signed integer types.39) - - 35) Leaving the innermost block containing the declaration, or jumping to a point in that block or an - embedded block prior to the declaration, leaves the scope of the declaration. - 36) The address of such an object is taken implicitly when an array member is accessed. - 37) A type may be incomplete or complete throughout an entire translation unit, or it may change states at - different points within a translation unit. - -[page 39] (Contents) - -5 An object declared as type signed char occupies the same amount of storage as a - ''plain'' char object. A ''plain'' int object has the natural size suggested by the - architecture of the execution environment (large enough to contain any value in the range - INT_MIN to INT_MAX as defined in the header <limits.h>). -6 For each of the signed integer types, there is a corresponding (but different) unsigned - integer type (designated with the keyword unsigned) that uses the same amount of - storage (including sign information) and has the same alignment requirements. The type - _Bool and the unsigned integer types that correspond to the standard signed integer - types are the standard unsigned integer types. The unsigned integer types that - correspond to the extended signed integer types are the extended unsigned integer types. - The standard and extended unsigned integer types are collectively called unsigned integer - types.40) -7 The standard signed integer types and standard unsigned integer types are collectively - called the standard integer types, the extended signed integer types and extended - unsigned integer types are collectively called the extended integer types. -8 For any two integer types with the same signedness and different integer conversion rank - (see 6.3.1.1), the range of values of the type with smaller integer conversion rank is a - subrange of the values of the other type. -9 The range of nonnegative values of a signed integer type is a subrange of the - corresponding unsigned integer type, and the representation of the same value in each - type is the same.41) A computation involving unsigned operands can never overflow, - because a result that cannot be represented by the resulting unsigned integer type is - reduced modulo the number that is one greater than the largest value that can be - represented by the resulting type. -10 There are three real floating types, designated as float, double, and long - double.42) The set of values of the type float is a subset of the set of values of the - type double; the set of values of the type double is a subset of the set of values of the - type long double. - - - 38) Implementation-defined keywords shall have the form of an identifier reserved for any use as - described in 7.1.3. - 39) Therefore, any statement in this Standard about signed integer types also applies to the extended - signed integer types. - 40) Therefore, any statement in this Standard about unsigned integer types also applies to the extended - unsigned integer types. - 41) The same representation and alignment requirements are meant to imply interchangeability as - arguments to functions, return values from functions, and members of unions. - 42) See ''future language directions'' (6.11.1). - -[page 40] (Contents) - -11 There are three complex types, designated as float _Complex, double - _Complex, and long double _Complex.43) (Complex types are a conditional - feature that implementations need not support; see 6.10.8.3.) The real floating and - complex types are collectively called the floating types. -12 For each floating type there is a corresponding real type, which is always a real floating - type. For real floating types, it is the same type. For complex types, it is the type given - by deleting the keyword _Complex from the type name. -13 Each complex type has the same representation and alignment requirements as an array - type containing exactly two elements of the corresponding real type; the first element is - equal to the real part, and the second element to the imaginary part, of the complex - number. -14 The type char, the signed and unsigned integer types, and the floating types are - collectively called the basic types. The basic types are complete object types. Even if the - implementation defines two or more basic types to have the same representation, they are - nevertheless different types.44) -15 The three types char, signed char, and unsigned char are collectively called - the character types. The implementation shall define char to have the same range, - representation, and behavior as either signed char or unsigned char.45) -16 An enumeration comprises a set of named integer constant values. Each distinct - enumeration constitutes a different enumerated type. -17 The type char, the signed and unsigned integer types, and the enumerated types are - collectively called integer types. The integer and real floating types are collectively called - real types. -18 Integer and floating types are collectively called arithmetic types. Each arithmetic type - belongs to one type domain: the real type domain comprises the real types, the complex - type domain comprises the complex types. -19 The void type comprises an empty set of values; it is an incomplete object type that - cannot be completed. - - - - 43) A specification for imaginary types is in annex G. - 44) An implementation may define new keywords that provide alternative ways to designate a basic (or - any other) type; this does not violate the requirement that all basic types be different. - Implementation-defined keywords shall have the form of an identifier reserved for any use as - described in 7.1.3. - 45) CHAR_MIN, defined in <limits.h>, will have one of the values 0 or SCHAR_MIN, and this can be - used to distinguish the two options. Irrespective of the choice made, char is a separate type from the - other two and is not compatible with either. - -[page 41] (Contents) - -20 Any number of derived types can be constructed from the object and function types, as - follows: - -- An array type describes a contiguously allocated nonempty set of objects with a - particular member object type, called the element type. The element type shall be - complete whenever the array type is specified. Array types are characterized by their - element type and by the number of elements in the array. An array type is said to be - derived from its element type, and if its element type is T , the array type is sometimes - called ''array of T ''. The construction of an array type from an element type is called - ''array type derivation''. - -- A structure type describes a sequentially allocated nonempty set of member objects - (and, in certain circumstances, an incomplete array), each of which has an optionally - specified name and possibly distinct type. - -- A union type describes an overlapping nonempty set of member objects, each of - which has an optionally specified name and possibly distinct type. - -- A function type describes a function with specified return type. A function type is - characterized by its return type and the number and types of its parameters. A - function type is said to be derived from its return type, and if its return type is T , the - function type is sometimes called ''function returning T ''. The construction of a - function type from a return type is called ''function type derivation''. - -- A pointer type may be derived from a function type or an object type, called the - referenced type. A pointer type describes an object whose value provides a reference - to an entity of the referenced type. A pointer type derived from the referenced type T - is sometimes called ''pointer to T ''. The construction of a pointer type from a - referenced type is called ''pointer type derivation''. A pointer type is a complete - object type. - -- An atomic type describes the type designated by the construct _Atomic ( type- - name ). (Atomic types are a conditional feature that implementations need not - support; see 6.10.8.3.) - These methods of constructing derived types can be applied recursively. -21 Arithmetic types and pointer types are collectively called scalar types. Array and - structure types are collectively called aggregate types.46) -22 An array type of unknown size is an incomplete type. It is completed, for an identifier of - that type, by specifying the size in a later declaration (with internal or external linkage). - A structure or union type of unknown content (as described in 6.7.2.3) is an incomplete - - - 46) Note that aggregate type does not include union type because an object with union type can only - contain one member at a time. - -[page 42] (Contents) - - type. It is completed, for all declarations of that type, by declaring the same structure or - union tag with its defining content later in the same scope. -23 A type has known constant size if the type is not incomplete and is not a variable length - array type. -24 Array, function, and pointer types are collectively called derived declarator types. A - declarator type derivation from a type T is the construction of a derived declarator type - from T by the application of an array-type, a function-type, or a pointer-type derivation to - T. -25 A type is characterized by its type category, which is either the outermost derivation of a - derived type (as noted above in the construction of derived types), or the type itself if the - type consists of no derived types. -26 Any type so far mentioned is an unqualified type. Each unqualified type has several - qualified versions of its type,47) corresponding to the combinations of one, two, or all - three of the const, volatile, and restrict qualifiers. The qualified or unqualified - versions of a type are distinct types that belong to the same type category and have the - same representation and alignment requirements.48) A derived type is not qualified by the - qualifiers (if any) of the type from which it is derived. -27 Further, there is the _Atomic qualifier. The presence of the _Atomic qualifier - designates an atomic type. The size, representation, and alignment of an atomic type - need not be the same as those of the corresponding unqualified type. Therefore, this - Standard explicitly uses the phrase ''atomic, qualified or unqualified type'' whenever the - atomic version of a type is permitted along with the other qualified versions of a type. - The phrase ''qualified or unqualified type'', without specific mention of atomic, does not - include the atomic types. -28 A pointer to void shall have the same representation and alignment requirements as a - pointer to a character type.48) Similarly, pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of - compatible types shall have the same representation and alignment requirements. All - pointers to structure types shall have the same representation and alignment requirements - as each other. All pointers to union types shall have the same representation and - alignment requirements as each other. Pointers to other types need not have the same - representation or alignment requirements. -29 EXAMPLE 1 The type designated as ''float *'' has type ''pointer to float''. Its type category is - pointer, not a floating type. The const-qualified version of this type is designated as ''float * const'' - whereas the type designated as ''const float *'' is not a qualified type -- its type is ''pointer to const- - - - 47) See 6.7.3 regarding qualified array and function types. - 48) The same representation and alignment requirements are meant to imply interchangeability as - arguments to functions, return values from functions, and members of unions. - -[page 43] (Contents) - - qualified float'' and is a pointer to a qualified type. - -30 EXAMPLE 2 The type designated as ''struct tag (*[5])(float)'' has type ''array of pointer to - function returning struct tag''. The array has length five and the function has a single parameter of type - float. Its type category is array. - - Forward references: compatible type and composite type (6.2.7), declarations (6.7). - 6.2.6 Representations of types - 6.2.6.1 General -1 The representations of all types are unspecified except as stated in this subclause. -2 Except for bit-fields, objects are composed of contiguous sequences of one or more bytes, - the number, order, and encoding of which are either explicitly specified or - implementation-defined. -3 Values stored in unsigned bit-fields and objects of type unsigned char shall be - represented using a pure binary notation.49) -4 Values stored in non-bit-field objects of any other object type consist of n x CHAR_BIT - bits, where n is the size of an object of that type, in bytes. The value may be copied into - an object of type unsigned char [n] (e.g., by memcpy); the resulting set of bytes is - called the object representation of the value. Values stored in bit-fields consist of m bits, - where m is the size specified for the bit-field. The object representation is the set of m - bits the bit-field comprises in the addressable storage unit holding it. Two values (other - than NaNs) with the same object representation compare equal, but values that compare - equal may have different object representations. -5 Certain object representations need not represent a value of the object type. If the stored - value of an object has such a representation and is read by an lvalue expression that does - not have character type, the behavior is undefined. If such a representation is produced - by a side effect that modifies all or any part of the object by an lvalue expression that - does not have character type, the behavior is undefined.50) Such a representation is called - a trap representation. -6 When a value is stored in an object of structure or union type, including in a member - object, the bytes of the object representation that correspond to any padding bytes take - unspecified values.51) The value of a structure or union object is never a trap - - - 49) A positional representation for integers that uses the binary digits 0 and 1, in which the values - represented by successive bits are additive, begin with 1, and are multiplied by successive integral - powers of 2, except perhaps the bit with the highest position. (Adapted from the American National - Dictionary for Information Processing Systems.) A byte contains CHAR_BIT bits, and the values of - type unsigned char range from 0 to 2 - CHAR_BIT - - 1. - 50) Thus, an automatic variable can be initialized to a trap representation without causing undefined - behavior, but the value of the variable cannot be used until a proper value is stored in it. - -[page 44] (Contents) - - representation, even though the value of a member of the structure or union object may be - a trap representation. -7 When a value is stored in a member of an object of union type, the bytes of the object - representation that do not correspond to that member but do correspond to other members - take unspecified values. -8 Where an operator is applied to a value that has more than one object representation, - which object representation is used shall not affect the value of the result.52) Where a - value is stored in an object using a type that has more than one object representation for - that value, it is unspecified which representation is used, but a trap representation shall - not be generated. -9 Loads and stores of objects with atomic types are done with - memory_order_seq_cst semantics. - Forward references: declarations (6.7), expressions (6.5), lvalues, arrays, and function - designators (6.3.2.1), order and consistency (7.17.3). - 6.2.6.2 Integer types -1 For unsigned integer types other than unsigned char, the bits of the object - representation shall be divided into two groups: value bits and padding bits (there need - not be any of the latter). If there are N value bits, each bit shall represent a different - power of 2 between 1 and 2 N -1 , so that objects of that type shall be capable of - representing values from 0 to 2 N - 1 using a pure binary representation; this shall be - known as the value representation. The values of any padding bits are unspecified.53) -2 For signed integer types, the bits of the object representation shall be divided into three - groups: value bits, padding bits, and the sign bit. There need not be any padding bits; - signed char shall not have any padding bits. There shall be exactly one sign bit. - Each bit that is a value bit shall have the same value as the same bit in the object - representation of the corresponding unsigned type (if there are M value bits in the signed - type and N in the unsigned type, then M <= N ). If the sign bit is zero, it shall not affect - - 51) Thus, for example, structure assignment need not copy any padding bits. - 52) It is possible for objects x and y with the same effective type T to have the same value when they are - accessed as objects of type T, but to have different values in other contexts. In particular, if == is - defined for type T, then x == y does not imply that memcmp(&x, &y, sizeof (T)) == 0. - Furthermore, x == y does not necessarily imply that x and y have the same value; other operations - on values of type T may distinguish between them. - 53) Some combinations of padding bits might generate trap representations, for example, if one padding - bit is a parity bit. Regardless, no arithmetic operation on valid values can generate a trap - representation other than as part of an exceptional condition such as an overflow, and this cannot occur - with unsigned types.

If the sign bit is one, the value shall be modified in one of the - following ways: - -- the corresponding value with sign bit 0 is negated (sign and magnitude); - -- the sign bit has the value -(2 M ) (two's complement); - -- the sign bit has the value -(2 M - 1) (ones' complement). - Which of these applies is implementation-defined, as is whether the value with sign bit 1 - and all value bits zero (for the first two), or with sign bit and all value bits 1 (for ones' - complement), is a trap representation or a normal value. In the case of sign and - magnitude and ones' complement, if this representation is a normal value it is called a - negative zero. -3 If the implementation supports negative zeros, they shall be generated only by: - -- the &, |, ^, ~, <<, and >> operators with operands that produce such a value; - -- the +, -, *, /, and % operators where one operand is a negative zero and the result is - zero; - -- compound assignment operators based on the above cases. - It is unspecified whether these cases actually generate a negative zero or a normal zero, - and whether a negative zero becomes a normal zero when stored in an object. -4 If the implementation does not support negative zeros, the behavior of the &, |, ^, ~, <<, - and >> operators with operands that would produce such a value is undefined. -5 The values of any padding bits are unspecified.54) A valid (non-trap) object representation - of a signed integer type where the sign bit is zero is a valid object representation of the - corresponding unsigned type, and shall represent the same value.

Additional rules for - determining whether two types are compatible are described in 6.7.2 for type specifiers, - in 6.7.3 for type qualifiers, and in 6.7.6 for declarators.55) Moreover, two structure, - union, or enumerated types declared in separate translation units are compatible if their - tags and members satisfy the following requirements: If one is declared with a tag, the - other shall be declared with the same tag. If both are completed anywhere within their - respective translation units, then the following additional requirements apply: there shall - be a one-to-one correspondence between their members such that each pair of - corresponding members are declared with compatible types; if one member of the pair is - declared with an alignment specifier, the other is declared with an equivalent alignment - specifier; and if one member of the pair is declared with a name, the other is declared - with the same name. For two structures, corresponding members shall be declared in the - same order. For two structures or unions, corresponding bit-fields shall have the same - widths. For two enumerations, corresponding members shall have the same values. -2 All declarations that refer to the same object or function shall have compatible type; - otherwise, the behavior is undefined. -3 A composite type can be constructed from two types that are compatible; it is a type that - is compatible with both of the two types and satisfies the following conditions: - -- If both types are array types, the following rules are applied: - o If one type is an array of known constant size, the composite type is an array of - that size. - o Otherwise, if one type is a variable length array whose size is specified by an - expression that is not evaluated, the behavior is undefined. - o Otherwise, if one type is a variable length array whose size is specified, the - composite type is a variable length array of that size. - o Otherwise, if one type is a variable length array of unspecified size, the composite - type is a variable length array of unspecified size. - o Otherwise, both types are arrays of unknown size and the composite type is an - array of unknown size. - The element type of the composite type is the composite type of the two element - types. - -- If only one type is a function type with a parameter type list (a function prototype), - the composite type is a function prototype with the parameter type list. - - - 55) Two types need not be identical to be compatible. - -[page 47] (Contents) - - -- If both types are function types with parameter type lists, the type of each parameter - in the composite parameter type list is the composite type of the corresponding - parameters. - These rules apply recursively to the types from which the two types are derived. -4 For an identifier with internal or external linkage declared in a scope in which a prior - declaration of that identifier is visible,56) if the prior declaration specifies internal or - external linkage, the type of the identifier at the later declaration becomes the composite - type. - Forward references: array declarators (6.7.6.2). -5 EXAMPLE Given the following two file scope declarations: - int f(int (*)(), double (*)[3]); - int f(int (*)(char *), double (*)[]); - The resulting composite type for the function is: - int f(int (*)(char *), double (*)[3]); - - 6.2.8 Alignment of objects -1 Complete object types have alignment requirements which place restrictions on the - addresses at which objects of that type may be allocated. An alignment is an - implementation-defined integer value representing the number of bytes between - successive addresses at which a given object can be allocated. An object type imposes an - alignment requirement on every object of that type: stricter alignment can be requested - using the _Alignas keyword. -2 A fundamental alignment is represented by an alignment less than or equal to the greatest - alignment supported by the implementation in all contexts, which is equal to - alignof(max_align_t). -3 An extended alignment is represented by an alignment greater than - alignof(max_align_t). It is implementation-defined whether any extended - alignments are supported and the contexts in which they are supported. A type having an - extended alignment requirement is an over-aligned type.57) -4 Alignments are represented as values of the type size_t. Valid alignments include only - those values returned by an alignof expression for fundamental types, plus an - additional implementation-defined set of values, which may be empty. Every valid - alignment value shall be a nonnegative integral power of two. - - - 56) As specified in 6.2.1, the later declaration might hide the prior declaration. - 57) Every over-aligned type is, or contains, a structure or union type with a member to which an extended - alignment has been applied. - -[page 48] (Contents) - -5 Alignments have an order from weaker to stronger or stricter alignments. Stricter - alignments have larger alignment values. An address that satisfies an alignment - requirement also satisfies any weaker valid alignment requirement. -6 The alignment requirement of a complete type can be queried using an alignof - expression. The types char, signed char, and unsigned char shall have the - weakest alignment requirement. -7 Comparing alignments is meaningful and provides the obvious results: - -- Two alignments are equal when their numeric values are equal. - -- Two alignments are different when their numeric values are not equal. - -- When an alignment is larger than another it represents a stricter alignment. - - - - -[page 49] (Contents) - - 6.3 Conversions -1 Several operators convert operand values from one type to another automatically. This - subclause specifies the result required from such an implicit conversion, as well as those - that result from a cast operation (an explicit conversion). The list in 6.3.1.8 summarizes - the conversions performed by most ordinary operators; it is supplemented as required by - the discussion of each operator in 6.5. -2 Conversion of an operand value to a compatible type causes no change to the value or the - representation. - Forward references: cast operators (6.5.4). - 6.3.1 Arithmetic operands - 6.3.1.1 Boolean, characters, and integers -1 Every integer type has an integer conversion rank defined as follows: - -- No two signed integer types shall have the same rank, even if they have the same - representation. - -- The rank of a signed integer type shall be greater than the rank of any signed integer - type with less precision. - -- The rank of long long int shall be greater than the rank of long int, which - shall be greater than the rank of int, which shall be greater than the rank of short - int, which shall be greater than the rank of signed char. - -- The rank of any unsigned integer type shall equal the rank of the corresponding - signed integer type, if any. - -- The rank of any standard integer type shall be greater than the rank of any extended - integer type with the same width. - -- The rank of char shall equal the rank of signed char and unsigned char. - -- The rank of _Bool shall be less than the rank of all other standard integer types. - -- The rank of any enumerated type shall equal the rank of the compatible integer type - (see 6.7.2.2). - -- The rank of any extended signed integer type relative to another extended signed - integer type with the same precision is implementation-defined, but still subject to the - other rules for determining the integer conversion rank. - -- For all integer types T1, T2, and T3, if T1 has greater rank than T2 and T2 has - greater rank than T3, then T1 has greater rank than T3. -2 The following may be used in an expression wherever an int or unsigned int may - be used: - -[page 50] (Contents) - - -- An object or expression with an integer type (other than int or unsigned int) - whose integer conversion rank is less than or equal to the rank of int and - unsigned int. - -- A bit-field of type _Bool, int, signed int, or unsigned int. - If an int can represent all values of the original type (as restricted by the width, for a - bit-field), the value is converted to an int; otherwise, it is converted to an unsigned - int. These are called the integer promotions.58) All other types are unchanged by the - integer promotions. -3 The integer promotions preserve value including sign. As discussed earlier, whether a - ''plain'' char is treated as signed is implementation-defined. - Forward references: enumeration specifiers (6.7.2.2), structure and union specifiers - (6.7.2.1). - 6.3.1.2 Boolean type -1 When any scalar value is converted to _Bool, the result is 0 if the value compares equal - to 0; otherwise, the result is 1.59) - 6.3.1.3 Signed and unsigned integers -1 When a value with integer type is converted to another integer type other than _Bool, if - the value can be represented by the new type, it is unchanged. -2 Otherwise, if the new type is unsigned, the value is converted by repeatedly adding or - subtracting one more than the maximum value that can be represented in the new type - until the value is in the range of the new type.60) -3 Otherwise, the new type is signed and the value cannot be represented in it; either the - result is implementation-defined or an implementation-defined signal is raised. - 6.3.1.4 Real floating and integer -1 When a finite value of real floating type is converted to an integer type other than _Bool, - the fractional part is discarded (i.e., the value is truncated toward zero). If the value of - the integral part cannot be represented by the integer type, the behavior is undefined.61) - - - 58) The integer promotions are applied only: as part of the usual arithmetic conversions, to certain - argument expressions, to the operands of the unary +, -, and ~ operators, and to both operands of the - shift operators, as specified by their respective subclauses. - 59) NaNs do not compare equal to 0 and thus convert to 1. - 60) The rules describe arithmetic on the mathematical value, not the value of a given type of expression. - 61) The remaindering operation performed when a value of integer type is converted to unsigned type - need not be performed when a value of real floating type is converted to unsigned type. Thus, the - range of portable real floating values is (-1, Utype_MAX+1). - -[page 51] (Contents) - -2 When a value of integer type is converted to a real floating type, if the value being - converted can be represented exactly in the new type, it is unchanged. If the value being - converted is in the range of values that can be represented but cannot be represented - exactly, the result is either the nearest higher or nearest lower representable value, chosen - in an implementation-defined manner. If the value being converted is outside the range of - values that can be represented, the behavior is undefined. Results of some implicit - conversions (6.3.1.8, 6.8.6.4) may be represented in greater precision and range than that - required by the new type. - 6.3.1.5 Real floating types -1 When a value of real floating type is converted to a real floating type, if the value being - converted can be represented exactly in the new type, it is unchanged. If the value being - converted is in the range of values that can be represented but cannot be represented - exactly, the result is either the nearest higher or nearest lower representable value, chosen - in an implementation-defined manner. If the value being converted is outside the range of - values that can be represented, the behavior is undefined. Results of some implicit - conversions (6.3.1.8, 6.8.6.4) may be represented in greater precision and range than that - required by the new type. - 6.3.1.6 Complex types -1 When a value of complex type is converted to another complex type, both the real and - imaginary parts follow the conversion rules for the corresponding real types. - 6.3.1.7 Real and complex -1 When a value of real type is converted to a complex type, the real part of the complex - result value is determined by the rules of conversion to the corresponding real type and - the imaginary part of the complex result value is a positive zero or an unsigned zero. -2 When a value of complex type is converted to a real type, the imaginary part of the - complex value is discarded and the value of the real part is converted according to the - conversion rules for the corresponding real type. - 6.3.1.8 Usual arithmetic conversions -1 Many operators that expect operands of arithmetic type cause conversions and yield result - types in a similar way. The purpose is to determine a common real type for the operands - and result. For the specified operands, each operand is converted, without change of type - domain, to a type whose corresponding real type is the common real type. Unless - explicitly stated otherwise, the common real type is also the corresponding real type of - the result, whose type domain is the type domain of the operands if they are the same, - and complex otherwise. This pattern is called the usual arithmetic conversions: - First, if the corresponding real type of either operand is long double, the other - operand is converted, without change of type domain, to a type whose - -[page 52] (Contents) - - corresponding real type is long double. - Otherwise, if the corresponding real type of either operand is double, the other - operand is converted, without change of type domain, to a type whose - corresponding real type is double. - Otherwise, if the corresponding real type of either operand is float, the other - operand is converted, without change of type domain, to a type whose - corresponding real type is float.62) - Otherwise, the integer promotions are performed on both operands. Then the - following rules are applied to the promoted operands: - If both operands have the same type, then no further conversion is needed. - Otherwise, if both operands have signed integer types or both have unsigned - integer types, the operand with the type of lesser integer conversion rank is - converted to the type of the operand with greater rank. - Otherwise, if the operand that has unsigned integer type has rank greater or - equal to the rank of the type of the other operand, then the operand with - signed integer type is converted to the type of the operand with unsigned - integer type. - Otherwise, if the type of the operand with signed integer type can represent - all of the values of the type of the operand with unsigned integer type, then - the operand with unsigned integer type is converted to the type of the - operand with signed integer type. - Otherwise, both operands are converted to the unsigned integer type - corresponding to the type of the operand with signed integer type. -2 The values of floating operands and of the results of floating expressions may be - represented in greater precision and range than that required by the type; the types are not - changed thereby.63) - - - - - 62) For example, addition of a double _Complex and a float entails just the conversion of the - float operand to double (and yields a double _Complex result). - 63) The cast and assignment operators are still required to remove extra range and precision. - -[page 53] (Contents) - - 6.3.2 Other operands - 6.3.2.1 Lvalues, arrays, and function designators -1 An lvalue is an expression (with an object type other than void) that potentially - designates an object;64) if an lvalue does not designate an object when it is evaluated, the - behavior is undefined. When an object is said to have a particular type, the type is - specified by the lvalue used to designate the object. A modifiable lvalue is an lvalue that - does not have array type, does not have an incomplete type, does not have a const- - qualified type, and if it is a structure or union, does not have any member (including, - recursively, any member or element of all contained aggregates or unions) with a const- - qualified type. -2 Except when it is the operand of the sizeof operator, the unary & operator, the ++ - operator, the -- operator, or the left operand of the . operator or an assignment operator, - an lvalue that does not have array type is converted to the value stored in the designated - object (and is no longer an lvalue); this is called lvalue conversion. If the lvalue has - qualified type, the value has the unqualified version of the type of the lvalue; additionally, - if the lvalue has atomic type, the value has the non-atomic version of the type of the - lvalue; otherwise, the value has the type of the lvalue. If the lvalue has an incomplete - type and does not have array type, the behavior is undefined. If the lvalue designates an - object of automatic storage duration that could have been declared with the register - storage class (never had its address taken), and that object is uninitialized (not declared - with an initializer and no assignment to it has been performed prior to use), the behavior - is undefined. -3 Except when it is the operand of the sizeof operator or the unary & operator, or is a - string literal used to initialize an array, an expression that has type ''array of type'' is - converted to an expression with type ''pointer to type'' that points to the initial element of - the array object and is not an lvalue. If the array object has register storage class, the - behavior is undefined. -4 A function designator is an expression that has function type. Except when it is the - operand of the sizeof operator65) or the unary & operator, a function designator with - type ''function returning type'' is converted to an expression that has type ''pointer to - - - 64) The name ''lvalue'' comes originally from the assignment expression E1 = E2, in which the left - operand E1 is required to be a (modifiable) lvalue. It is perhaps better considered as representing an - object ''locator value''. What is sometimes called ''rvalue'' is in this International Standard described - as the ''value of an expression''. - An obvious example of an lvalue is an identifier of an object. As a further example, if E is a unary - expression that is a pointer to an object, *E is an lvalue that designates the object to which E points. - 65) Because this conversion does not occur, the operand of the sizeof operator remains a function - designator and violates the constraint in 6.5.3.4. - -[page 54] (Contents) - - function returning type''. - Forward references: address and indirection operators (6.5.3.2), assignment operators - (6.5.16), common definitions <stddef.h> (7.19), initialization (6.7.9), postfix - increment and decrement operators (6.5.2.4), prefix increment and decrement operators - (6.5.3.1), the sizeof operator (6.5.3.4), structure and union members (6.5.2.3). - 6.3.2.2 void -1 The (nonexistent) value of a void expression (an expression that has type void) shall not - be used in any way, and implicit or explicit conversions (except to void) shall not be - applied to such an expression.

A pointer to - any object type may be converted to a pointer to void and back again; the result shall - compare equal to the original pointer. -2 For any qualifier q, a pointer to a non-q-qualified type may be converted to a pointer to - the q-qualified version of the type; the values stored in the original and converted pointers - shall compare equal. -3 An integer constant expression with the value 0, or such an expression cast to type - void *, is called a null pointer constant.66) If a null pointer constant is converted to a - pointer type, the resulting pointer, called a null pointer, is guaranteed to compare unequal - to a pointer to any object or function. -4 Conversion of a null pointer to another pointer type yields a null pointer of that type. - Any two null pointers shall compare equal. -5 An integer may be converted to any pointer type.

If any of the tokens has an encoding prefix, the - resulting multibyte character sequence is treated as having the same prefix; otherwise, it - is treated as a character string literal. Whether differently-prefixed wide string literal - tokens can be concatenated and, if so, the treatment of the resulting multibyte character - sequence are implementation-defined. -6 In translation phase 7, a byte or code of value zero is appended to each multibyte - character sequence that results from a string literal or literals.78) The multibyte character - sequence is then used to initialize an array of static storage duration and length just - sufficient to contain the sequence. For character string literals, the array elements have - type char, and are initialized with the individual bytes of the multibyte character - sequence. For UTF-8 string literals, the array elements have type char, and are - initialized with the characters of the multibyte character sequence, as encoded in UTF-8. - For wide string literals prefixed by the letter L, the array elements have type wchar_t - and are initialized with the sequence of wide characters corresponding to the multibyte - character sequence, as defined by the mbstowcs function with an implementation- - defined current locale. For wide string literals prefixed by the letter u or U, the array - elements have type char16_t or char32_t, respectively, and are initialized with the - sequence of wide characters corresponding to the multibyte character sequence, as - defined by successive calls to the mbrtoc16, or mbrtoc32 function as appropriate for - its type, with an implementation-defined current locale.

If a value is copied into an object having no declared type using - memcpy or memmove, or is copied as an array of character type, then the effective type - of the modified object for that access and for subsequent accesses that do not modify the - value is the effective type of the object from which the value is copied, if it has one.

The definition of the subscript operator [] - is that E1[E2] is identical to (*((E1)+(E2))). Because of the conversion rules that - apply to the binary + operator, if E1 is an array object (equivalently, a pointer to the - initial element of an array object) and E2 is an integer, E1[E2] designates the E2-th - element of E1 (counting from zero). -3 Successive subscript operators designate an element of a multidimensional array object. - If E is an n-dimensional array (n >= 2) with dimensions i x j x . . . x k, then E (used as - other than an lvalue) is converted to a pointer to an (n - 1)-dimensional array with - dimensions j x . . . x k. If the unary * operator is applied to this pointer explicitly, or - implicitly as a result of subscripting, the result is the referenced (n - 1)-dimensional - array, which itself is converted into a pointer if used as other than an lvalue. It follows - from this that arrays are stored in row-major order (last subscript varies fastest). -4 EXAMPLE Consider the array object defined by the declaration - int x[3][5]; - Here x is a 3 x 5 array of ints; more precisely, x is an array of three element objects, each of which is an - array of five ints. In the expression x[i], which is equivalent to (*((x)+(i))), x is first converted to - a pointer to the initial array of five ints. Then i is adjusted according to the type of x, which conceptually - entails multiplying i by the size of the object to which the pointer points, namely an array of five int - objects. The results are added and indirection is applied to yield an array of five ints. When used in the - expression x[i][j], that array is in turn converted to a pointer to the first of the ints, so x[i][j] - yields an int. - - Forward references: additive operators (6.5.6), address and indirection operators - (6.5.3.2), array declarators (6.7.6.2). - 6.5.2.2 Function calls - Constraints -1 The expression that denotes the called function92) shall have type pointer to function - returning void or returning a complete object type other than an array type. -2 If the expression that denotes the called function has a type that includes a prototype, the - number of arguments shall agree with the number of parameters.

The postfix expression denotes the called - function. The list of expressions specifies the arguments to the function. -4 An argument may be an expression of any complete object type. In preparing for the call - to a function, the arguments are evaluated, and each parameter is assigned the value of the - corresponding argument.93) -5 If the expression that denotes the called function has type pointer to function returning an - object type, the function call expression has the same type as that object type, and has the - value determined as specified in 6.8.6.4. Otherwise, the function call has type void. * -6 If the expression that denotes the called function has a type that does not include a - prototype, the integer promotions are performed on each argument, and arguments that - have type float are promoted to double. These are called the default argument - promotions. If the number of arguments does not equal the number of parameters, the - behavior is undefined. If the function is defined with a type that includes a prototype, and - either the prototype ends with an ellipsis (, ...) or the types of the arguments after - promotion are not compatible with the types of the parameters, the behavior is undefined. - If the function is defined with a type that does not include a prototype, and the types of - the arguments after promotion are not compatible with those of the parameters after - promotion, the behavior is undefined, except for the following cases: - -- one promoted type is a signed integer type, the other promoted type is the - corresponding unsigned integer type, and the value is representable in both types; - -- both types are pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of a character type or - void. -7 If the expression that denotes the called function has a type that does include a prototype, - the arguments are implicitly converted, as if by assignment, to the types of the - corresponding parameters, taking the type of each parameter to be the unqualified version - of its declared type. The ellipsis notation in a function prototype declarator causes - argument type conversion to stop after the last declared parameter. The default argument - promotions are performed on trailing arguments. - - - - 93) A function may change the values of its parameters, but these changes cannot affect the values of the - arguments. On the other hand, it is possible to pass a pointer to an object, and the function may - change the value of the object pointed to. A parameter declared to have array or function type is - adjusted to have a pointer type as described in 6.9.1. - -[page 81] (Contents) - -8 No other conversions are performed implicitly; in particular, the number and types of - arguments are not compared with those of the parameters in a function definition that - does not include a function prototype declarator. -9 If the function is defined with a type that is not compatible with the type (of the - expression) pointed to by the expression that denotes the called function, the behavior is - undefined. -10 There is a sequence point after the evaluations of the function designator and the actual - arguments but before the actual call. Every evaluation in the calling function (including - other function calls) that is not otherwise specifically sequenced before or after the - execution of the body of the called function is indeterminately sequenced with respect to - the execution of the called function.94) -11 Recursive function calls shall be permitted, both directly and indirectly through any chain - of other functions. -12 EXAMPLE In the function call - (*pf[f1()]) (f2(), f3() + f4()) - the functions f1, f2, f3, and f4 may be called in any order.

If the first expression has qualified type, the result has - the so-qualified version of the type of the designated member. - - 94) In other words, function executions do not ''interleave'' with each other. - 95) If the member used to read the contents of a union object is not the same as the member last used to - store a value in the object, the appropriate part of the object representation of the value is reinterpreted - as an object representation in the new type as described in 6.2.6 (a process sometimes called ''type - punning''). This might be a trap representation. - -[page 82] (Contents) - -4 A postfix expression followed by the -> operator and an identifier designates a member - of a structure or union object. The value is that of the named member of the object to - which the first expression points, and is an lvalue.96) If the first expression is a pointer to - a qualified type, the result has the so-qualified version of the type of the designated - member. -5 Accessing a member of an atomic structure or union object results in undefined - behavior.97) -6 One special guarantee is made in order to simplify the use of unions: if a union contains - several structures that share a common initial sequence (see below), and if the union - object currently contains one of these structures, it is permitted to inspect the common - initial part of any of them anywhere that a declaration of the completed type of the union - is visible. Two structures share a common initial sequence if corresponding members - have compatible types (and, for bit-fields, the same widths) for a sequence of one or more - initial members. -7 EXAMPLE 1 If f is a function returning a structure or union, and x is a member of that structure or - union, f().x is a valid postfix expression but is not an lvalue. - -8 EXAMPLE 2 In: - struct s { int i; const int ci; }; - struct s s; - const struct s cs; - volatile struct s vs; - the various members have the types: - s.i int - s.ci const int - cs.i const int - cs.ci const int - vs.i volatile int - vs.ci volatile const int - - - - - 96) If &E is a valid pointer expression (where & is the ''address-of '' operator, which generates a pointer to - its operand), the expression (&E)->MOS is the same as E.MOS. - 97) For example, a data race would occur if access to the entire structure or union in one thread conflicts - with access to a member from another thread, where at least one access is a modification.

The value computation of the result is sequenced before the side effect of - updating the stored value of the operand.

For example, - (const char []){"abc"} == "abc" - might yield 1 if the literals' storage is shared. - -14 EXAMPLE 7 Since compound literals are unnamed, a single compound literal cannot specify a circularly - linked object.

When applied to an - operand that has array type, the result is the total number of bytes in the array.103) When - applied to an operand that has structure or union type, the result is the total number of - bytes in such an object, including internal and trailing padding. -5 The value of the result of both operators is implementation-defined, and its type (an - unsigned integer type) is size_t, defined in <stddef.h> (and other headers). -6 EXAMPLE 1 A principal use of the sizeof operator is in communication with routines such as storage - allocators and I/O systems. A storage-allocation function might accept a size (in bytes) of an object to - allocate and return a pointer to void.

(Incrementing is - equivalent to adding 1.) -3 For subtraction, one of the following shall hold: - - - - - 105) This is often called ''truncation toward zero''. - -[page 92] (Contents) - - -- both operands have arithmetic type; - -- both operands are pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of compatible complete - object types; or - -- the left operand is a pointer to a complete object type and the right operand has - integer type. - (Decrementing is equivalent to subtracting 1.) - Semantics -4 If both operands have arithmetic type, the usual arithmetic conversions are performed on - them. -5 The result of the binary + operator is the sum of the operands. -6 The result of the binary - operator is the difference resulting from the subtraction of the - second operand from the first. -7 For the purposes of these operators, a pointer to an object that is not an element of an - array behaves the same as a pointer to the first element of an array of length one with the - type of the object as its element type. -8 When an expression that has integer type is added to or subtracted from a pointer, the - result has the type of the pointer operand. If the pointer operand points to an element of - an array object, and the array is large enough, the result points to an element offset from - the original element such that the difference of the subscripts of the resulting and original - array elements equals the integer expression. In other words, if the expression P points to - the i-th element of an array object, the expressions (P)+N (equivalently, N+(P)) and - (P)-N (where N has the value n) point to, respectively, the i+n-th and i-n-th elements of - the array object, provided they exist. Moreover, if the expression P points to the last - element of an array object, the expression (P)+1 points one past the last element of the - array object, and if the expression Q points one past the last element of an array object, - the expression (Q)-1 points to the last element of the array object. If both the pointer - operand and the result point to elements of the same array object, or one past the last - element of the array object, the evaluation shall not produce an overflow; otherwise, the - behavior is undefined. If the result points one past the last element of the array object, it - shall not be used as the operand of a unary * operator that is evaluated. -9 When two pointers are subtracted, both shall point to elements of the same array object, - or one past the last element of the array object; the result is the difference of the - subscripts of the two array elements. The size of the result is implementation-defined, - and its type (a signed integer type) is ptrdiff_t defined in the <stddef.h> header. - If the result is not representable in an object of that type, the behavior is undefined. In - other words, if the expressions P and Q point to, respectively, the i-th and j-th elements of - an array object, the expression (P)-(Q) has the value i-j provided the value fits in an - -[page 93] (Contents) - - object of type ptrdiff_t. Moreover, if the expression P points either to an element of - an array object or one past the last element of an array object, and the expression Q points - to the last element of the same array object, the expression ((Q)+1)-(P) has the same - value as ((Q)-(P))+1 and as -((P)-((Q)+1)), and has the value zero if the - expression P points one past the last element of the array object, even though the - expression (Q)+1 does not point to an element of the array object.106) -10 EXAMPLE Pointer arithmetic is well defined with pointers to variable length array types. - { - int n = 4, m = 3; - int a[n][m]; - int (*p)[m] = a; // p == &a[0] - p += 1; // p == &a[1] - (*p)[2] = 99; // a[1][2] == 99 - n = p - a; // n == 1 - } -11 If array a in the above example were declared to be an array of known constant size, and pointer p were - declared to be a pointer to an array of the same known constant size (pointing to a), the results would be - the same. - - Forward references: array declarators (6.7.6.2), common definitions <stddef.h> - (7.19). - 6.5.7 Bitwise shift operators - Syntax -1 shift-expression: - additive-expression - shift-expression << additive-expression - shift-expression >> additive-expression - Constraints -2 Each of the operands shall have integer type. - Semantics -3 The integer promotions are performed on each of the operands. The type of the result is - that of the promoted left operand. If the value of the right operand is negative or is - - 106) Another way to approach pointer arithmetic is first to convert the pointer(s) to character pointer(s): In - this scheme the integer expression added to or subtracted from the converted pointer is first multiplied - by the size of the object originally pointed to, and the resulting pointer is converted back to the - original type. For pointer subtraction, the result of the difference between the character pointers is - similarly divided by the size of the object originally pointed to. - When viewed in this way, an implementation need only provide one extra byte (which may overlap - another object in the program) just after the end of the object in order to satisfy the ''one past the last - element'' requirements. - -[page 94] (Contents) - - greater than or equal to the width of the promoted left operand, the behavior is undefined. -4 The result of E1 << E2 is E1 left-shifted E2 bit positions; vacated bits are filled with - zeros. If E1 has an unsigned type, the value of the result is E1 x 2E2 , reduced modulo - one more than the maximum value representable in the result type. If E1 has a signed - type and nonnegative value, and E1 x 2E2 is representable in the result type, then that is - the resulting value; otherwise, the behavior is undefined. -5 The result of E1 >> E2 is E1 right-shifted E2 bit positions. If E1 has an unsigned type - or if E1 has a signed type and a nonnegative value, the value of the result is the integral - part of the quotient of E1 / 2E2 . If E1 has a signed type and a negative value, the - resulting value is implementation-defined. - 6.5.8 Relational operators - Syntax -1 relational-expression: - shift-expression - relational-expression < shift-expression - relational-expression > shift-expression - relational-expression <= shift-expression - relational-expression >= shift-expression - Constraints -2 One of the following shall hold: - -- both operands have real type; or * - -- both operands are pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of compatible object - types. - Semantics -3 If both of the operands have arithmetic type, the usual arithmetic conversions are - performed. -4 For the purposes of these operators, a pointer to an object that is not an element of an - array behaves the same as a pointer to the first element of an array of length one with the - type of the object as its element type. -5 When two pointers are compared, the result depends on the relative locations in the - address space of the objects pointed to. If two pointers to object types both point to the - same object, or both point one past the last element of the same array object, they - compare equal. If the objects pointed to are members of the same aggregate object, - pointers to structure members declared later compare greater than pointers to members - declared earlier in the structure, and pointers to array elements with larger subscript - values compare greater than pointers to elements of the same array with lower subscript - -[page 95] (Contents) - - values. All pointers to members of the same union object compare equal. If the - expression P points to an element of an array object and the expression Q points to the - last element of the same array object, the pointer expression Q+1 compares greater than - P. In all other cases, the behavior is undefined. -6 Each of the operators < (less than), > (greater than), <= (less than or equal to), and >= - (greater than or equal to) shall yield 1 if the specified relation is true and 0 if it is - false.107) The result has type int. - 6.5.9 Equality operators - Syntax -1 equality-expression: - relational-expression - equality-expression == relational-expression - equality-expression != relational-expression - Constraints -2 One of the following shall hold: - -- both operands have arithmetic type; - -- both operands are pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of compatible types; - -- one operand is a pointer to an object type and the other is a pointer to a qualified or - unqualified version of void; or - -- one operand is a pointer and the other is a null pointer constant. - Semantics -3 The == (equal to) and != (not equal to) operators are analogous to the relational - operators except for their lower precedence.108) Each of the operators yields 1 if the - specified relation is true and 0 if it is false. The result has type int. For any pair of - operands, exactly one of the relations is true. -4 If both of the operands have arithmetic type, the usual arithmetic conversions are - performed. Values of complex types are equal if and only if both their real parts are equal - and also their imaginary parts are equal. Any two values of arithmetic types from - different type domains are equal if and only if the results of their conversions to the - (complex) result type determined by the usual arithmetic conversions are equal. - - - - 107) The expression a<b<c is not interpreted as in ordinary mathematics. As the syntax indicates, it - means (a<b)<c; in other words, ''if a is less than b, compare 1 to c; otherwise, compare 0 to c''. - 108) Because of the precedences, a<b == c<d is 1 whenever a<b and c<d have the same truth-value. - -[page 96] (Contents) - -5 Otherwise, at least one operand is a pointer. If one operand is a pointer and the other is a - null pointer constant, the null pointer constant is converted to the type of the pointer. If - one operand is a pointer to an object type and the other is a pointer to a qualified or - unqualified version of void, the former is converted to the type of the latter. -6 Two pointers compare equal if and only if both are null pointers, both are pointers to the - same object (including a pointer to an object and a subobject at its beginning) or function, - both are pointers to one past the last element of the same array object, or one is a pointer - to one past the end of one array object and the other is a pointer to the start of a different - array object that happens to immediately follow the first array object in the address - space.109) -7 For the purposes of these operators, a pointer to an object that is not an element of an - array behaves the same as a pointer to the first element of an array of length one with the - type of the object as its element type. - 6.5.10 Bitwise AND operator - Syntax -1 AND-expression: - equality-expression - AND-expression & equality-expression - Constraints -2 Each of the operands shall have integer type. - Semantics -3 The usual arithmetic conversions are performed on the operands. -4 The result of the binary & operator is the bitwise AND of the operands (that is, each bit in - the result is set if and only if each of the corresponding bits in the converted operands is - set). - - - - - 109) Two objects may be adjacent in memory because they are adjacent elements of a larger array or - adjacent members of a structure with no padding between them, or because the implementation chose - to place them so, even though they are unrelated. If prior invalid pointer operations (such as accesses - outside array bounds) produced undefined behavior, subsequent comparisons also produce undefined - behavior. - -[page 97] (Contents) - - 6.5.11 Bitwise exclusive OR operator - Syntax -1 exclusive-OR-expression: - AND-expression - exclusive-OR-expression ^ AND-expression - Constraints -2 Each of the operands shall have integer type. - Semantics -3 The usual arithmetic conversions are performed on the operands. -4 The result of the ^ operator is the bitwise exclusive OR of the operands (that is, each bit - in the result is set if and only if exactly one of the corresponding bits in the converted - operands is set). - 6.5.12 Bitwise inclusive OR operator - Syntax -1 inclusive-OR-expression: - exclusive-OR-expression - inclusive-OR-expression | exclusive-OR-expression - Constraints -2 Each of the operands shall have integer type. - Semantics -3 The usual arithmetic conversions are performed on the operands. -4 The result of the | operator is the bitwise inclusive OR of the operands (that is, each bit in - the result is set if and only if at least one of the corresponding bits in the converted - operands is set). - - - - -[page 98] (Contents) - - 6.5.13 Logical AND operator - Syntax -1 logical-AND-expression: - inclusive-OR-expression - logical-AND-expression && inclusive-OR-expression - Constraints -2 Each of the operands shall have scalar type. - Semantics -3 The && operator shall yield 1 if both of its operands compare unequal to 0; otherwise, it - yields 0. The result has type int. -4 Unlike the bitwise binary & operator, the && operator guarantees left-to-right evaluation; - if the second operand is evaluated, there is a sequence point between the evaluations of - the first and second operands. If the first operand compares equal to 0, the second - operand is not evaluated. - 6.5.14 Logical OR operator - Syntax -1 logical-OR-expression: - logical-AND-expression - logical-OR-expression || logical-AND-expression - Constraints -2 Each of the operands shall have scalar type. - Semantics -3 The || operator shall yield 1 if either of its operands compare unequal to 0; otherwise, it - yields 0. The result has type int. -4 Unlike the bitwise | operator, the || operator guarantees left-to-right evaluation; if the - second operand is evaluated, there is a sequence point between the evaluations of the first - and second operands. If the first operand compares unequal to 0, the second operand is - not evaluated. - - - - -[page 99] (Contents) - - 6.5.15 Conditional operator - Syntax -1 conditional-expression: - logical-OR-expression - logical-OR-expression ? expression : conditional-expression - Constraints -2 The first operand shall have scalar type. -3 One of the following shall hold for the second and third operands: - -- both operands have arithmetic type; - -- both operands have the same structure or union type; - -- both operands have void type; - -- both operands are pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of compatible types; - -- one operand is a pointer and the other is a null pointer constant; or - -- one operand is a pointer to an object type and the other is a pointer to a qualified or - unqualified version of void. - Semantics -4 The first operand is evaluated; there is a sequence point between its evaluation and the - evaluation of the second or third operand (whichever is evaluated). The second operand - is evaluated only if the first compares unequal to 0; the third operand is evaluated only if - the first compares equal to 0; the result is the value of the second or third operand - (whichever is evaluated), converted to the type described below.110) * -5 If both the second and third operands have arithmetic type, the result type that would be - determined by the usual arithmetic conversions, were they applied to those two operands, - is the type of the result. If both the operands have structure or union type, the result has - that type. If both operands have void type, the result has void type. -6 If both the second and third operands are pointers or one is a null pointer constant and the - other is a pointer, the result type is a pointer to a type qualified with all the type qualifiers - of the types referenced by both operands. Furthermore, if both operands are pointers to - compatible types or to differently qualified versions of compatible types, the result type is - a pointer to an appropriately qualified version of the composite type; if one operand is a - null pointer constant, the result has the type of the other operand; otherwise, one operand - is a pointer to void or a qualified version of void, in which case the result type is a - pointer to an appropriately qualified version of void. - - 110) A conditional expression does not yield an lvalue. - -[page 100] (Contents) - -7 EXAMPLE The common type that results when the second and third operands are pointers is determined - in two independent stages. The appropriate qualifiers, for example, do not depend on whether the two - pointers have compatible types. -8 Given the declarations - const void *c_vp; - void *vp; - const int *c_ip; - volatile int *v_ip; - int *ip; - const char *c_cp; - the third column in the following table is the common type that is the result of a conditional expression in - which the first two columns are the second and third operands (in either order): - c_vp c_ip const void * - v_ip 0 volatile int * - c_ip v_ip const volatile int * - vp c_cp const void * - ip c_ip const int * - vp ip void * - - 6.5.16 Assignment operators - Syntax -1 assignment-expression: - conditional-expression - unary-expression assignment-operator assignment-expression - assignment-operator: one of - = *= /= %= += -= <<= >>= &= ^= |= - Constraints -2 An assignment operator shall have a modifiable lvalue as its left operand. - Semantics -3 An assignment operator stores a value in the object designated by the left operand. An - assignment expression has the value of the left operand after the assignment,111) but is not - an lvalue. The type of an assignment expression is the type the left operand would have - after lvalue conversion. The side effect of updating the stored value of the left operand is - sequenced after the value computations of the left and right operands. The evaluations of - the operands are unsequenced. - - - - - 111) The implementation is permitted to read the object to determine the value but is not required to, even - when the object has volatile-qualified type. - -[page 101] (Contents) - - 6.5.16.1 Simple assignment - Constraints -1 One of the following shall hold:112) - -- the left operand has atomic, qualified, or unqualified arithmetic type, and the right has - arithmetic type; - -- the left operand has an atomic, qualified, or unqualified version of a structure or union - type compatible with the type of the right; - -- the left operand has atomic, qualified, or unqualified pointer type, and (considering - the type the left operand would have after lvalue conversion) both operands are - pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of compatible types, and the type pointed - to by the left has all the qualifiers of the type pointed to by the right; - -- the left operand has atomic, qualified, or unqualified pointer type, and (considering - the type the left operand would have after lvalue conversion) one operand is a pointer - to an object type, and the other is a pointer to a qualified or unqualified version of - void, and the type pointed to by the left has all the qualifiers of the type pointed to - by the right; - -- the left operand is an atomic, qualified, or unqualified pointer, and the right is a null - pointer constant; or - -- the left operand has type atomic, qualified, or unqualified _Bool, and the right is a - pointer. - Semantics -2 In simple assignment (=), the value of the right operand is converted to the type of the - assignment expression and replaces the value stored in the object designated by the left - operand. -3 If the value being stored in an object is read from another object that overlaps in any way - the storage of the first object, then the overlap shall be exact and the two objects shall - have qualified or unqualified versions of a compatible type; otherwise, the behavior is - undefined. -4 EXAMPLE 1 In the program fragment - - - - - 112) The asymmetric appearance of these constraints with respect to type qualifiers is due to the conversion - (specified in 6.3.2.1) that changes lvalues to ''the value of the expression'' and thus removes any type - qualifiers that were applied to the type category of the expression (for example, it removes const but - not volatile from the type int volatile * const). - -[page 102] (Contents) - - int f(void); - char c; + + ++ +Contents +

+ In this International Standard, ''shall'' is to be interpreted as a requirement on an + implementation or on a program; conversely, ''shall not'' is to be interpreted as a + prohibition. +
+ If a ''shall'' or ''shall not'' requirement that appears outside of a constraint or runtime- + constraint is violated, the behavior is undefined. Undefined behavior is otherwise + indicated in this International Standard by the words ''undefined behavior'' or by the + omission of any explicit definition of behavior. There is no difference in emphasis among + these three; they all describe ''behavior that is undefined''. +
+ A program that is correct in all other aspects, operating on correct data, containing + unspecified behavior shall be a correct program and act in accordance with 5.1.2.3. +

3) A strictly conforming program can use conditional features (see 6.10.8.3) provided the use is guarded
+ by an appropriate conditional inclusion preprocessing directive using the related macro. For example:
+
+
+ #ifdef __STDC_IEC_559__ /* FE_UPWARD defined */
/* ... */
- if ((c = f()) == -1)
- /* ... */
- the int value returned by the function may be truncated when stored in the char, and then converted back
- to int width prior to the comparison. In an implementation in which ''plain'' char has the same range of
- values as unsigned char (and char is narrower than int), the result of the conversion cannot be
- negative, so the operands of the comparison can never compare equal. Therefore, for full portability, the
- variable c should be declared as int.
-
-5 EXAMPLE 2 In the fragment:
- char c;
- int i;
- long l;
- l = (c = i);
- the value of i is converted to the type of the assignment expression c = i, that is, char type. The value
- of the expression enclosed in parentheses is then converted to the type of the outer assignment expression,
- that is, long int type.
-
-6 EXAMPLE 3 Consider the fragment:
- const char **cpp;
- char *p;
- const char c = 'A';
- cpp = &p; // constraint violation
- *cpp = &c; // valid
- *p = 0; // valid
- The first assignment is unsafe because it would allow the following valid code to attempt to change the
- value of the const object c.

- 6.5.16.2 Compound assignment
- Constraints
-1 For the operators += and -= only, either the left operand shall be an atomic, qualified, or
- unqualified pointer to a complete object type, and the right shall have integer type; or the
- left operand shall have atomic, qualified, or unqualified arithmetic type, and the right
- shall have arithmetic type.
-2 For the other operators, the left operand shall have atomic, qualified, or unqualified
- arithmetic type, and (considering the type the left operand would have after lvalue
- conversion) each operand shall have arithmetic type consistent with those allowed by the
- corresponding binary operator.
- Semantics
-3 A compound assignment of the form E1 op = E2 is equivalent to the simple assignment
- expression E1 = E1 op (E2), except that the lvalue E1 is evaluated only once, and with
- respect to an indeterminately-sequenced function call, the operation of a compound
-[page 103] (Contents)
-
- assignment is a single evaluation. If E1 has an atomic type, compound assignment is a
- read-modify-write operation with memory_order_seq_cst memory order
- semantics.113)
- 6.5.17 Comma operator
- Syntax
-1 expression:
- assignment-expression
- expression , assignment-expression
- Semantics
-2 The left operand of a comma operator is evaluated as a void expression; there is a
- sequence point between its evaluation and that of the right operand. Then the right
- operand is evaluated; the result has its type and value.114) *
-3 EXAMPLE As indicated by the syntax, the comma operator (as described in this subclause) cannot
- appear in contexts where a comma is used to separate items in a list (such as arguments to functions or lists
- of initializers). On the other hand, it can be used within a parenthesized expression or within the second
- expression of a conditional operator in such contexts. In the function call
- f(a, (t=3, t+2), c)
- the function has three arguments, the second of which has the value 5.

-
- 113) Where a pointer to an atomic object can be formed, this is equivalent to the following code sequence
- where T is the type of E1:
- T tmp = E1;
- T result;
- do {
- result = tmp op (E2);
- } while (!atomic_compare_exchange_strong(&E1, &tmp, result));
- with result being the result of the operation.

- 6.6 Constant expressions
- Syntax
-1 constant-expression:
- conditional-expression
- Description
-2 A constant expression can be evaluated during translation rather than runtime, and
- accordingly may be used in any place that a constant may be.
- Constraints
-3 Constant expressions shall not contain assignment, increment, decrement, function-call,
- or comma operators, except when they are contained within a subexpression that is not
- evaluated.115)
-4 Each constant expression shall evaluate to a constant that is in the range of representable
- values for its type.
- Semantics
-5 An expression that evaluates to a constant is required in several contexts. If a floating
- expression is evaluated in the translation environment, the arithmetic precision and range
- shall be at least as great as if the expression were being evaluated in the execution
- environment.116)
-6 An integer constant expression117) shall have integer type and shall only have operands
- that are integer constants, enumeration constants, character constants, sizeof
- expressions whose results are integer constants, and floating constants that are the
- immediate operands of casts. Cast operators in an integer constant expression shall only
- convert arithmetic types to integer types, except as part of an operand to the sizeof
- operator.
-7 More latitude is permitted for constant expressions in initializers. Such a constant
- expression shall be, or evaluate to, one of the following:
- -- an arithmetic constant expression,
-
-
-
- 115) The operand of a sizeof operator is usually not evaluated (6.5.3.4).
- 116) The use of evaluation formats as characterized by FLT_EVAL_METHOD also applies to evaluation in
- the translation environment.
- 117) An integer constant expression is required in a number of contexts such as the size of a bit-field
- member of a structure, the value of an enumeration constant, and the size of a non-variable length
- array. Further constraints that apply to the integer constant expressions used in conditional-inclusion
- preprocessing directives are discussed in 6.10.1.
-
-[page 105] (Contents)
-
- -- a null pointer constant,
- -- an address constant, or
- -- an address constant for a complete object type plus or minus an integer constant
- expression.
-8 An arithmetic constant expression shall have arithmetic type and shall only have
- operands that are integer constants, floating constants, enumeration constants, character
- constants, and sizeof expressions. Cast operators in an arithmetic constant expression
- shall only convert arithmetic types to arithmetic types, except as part of an operand to a
- sizeof operator whose result is an integer constant.
-9 An address constant is a null pointer, a pointer to an lvalue designating an object of static
- storage duration, or a pointer to a function designator; it shall be created explicitly using
- the unary & operator or an integer constant cast to pointer type, or implicitly by the use of
- an expression of array or function type. The array-subscript [] and member-access .
- and -> operators, the address & and indirection * unary operators, and pointer casts may
- be used in the creation of an address constant, but the value of an object shall not be
- accessed by use of these operators.
-10 An implementation may accept other forms of constant expressions.
-11 The semantic rules for the evaluation of a constant expression are the same as for
- nonconstant expressions.118)
- Forward references: array declarators (6.7.6.2), initialization (6.7.9).
-
-
-
-
- 118) Thus, in the following initialization,
- static int i = 2 || 1 / 0;
- the expression is a valid integer constant expression with value one.

-2 A declaration other than a static_assert declaration shall declare at least a declarator
- (other than the parameters of a function or the members of a structure or union), a tag, or
- the members of an enumeration.
-3 If an identifier has no linkage, there shall be no more than one declaration of the identifier
- (in a declarator or type specifier) with the same scope and in the same name space, except
- that a typedef name can be redefined to denote the same type as it currently does and tags
- may be redeclared as specified in 6.7.2.3.
-4 All declarations in the same scope that refer to the same object or function shall specify
- compatible types.
- Semantics
-5 A declaration specifies the interpretation and attributes of a set of identifiers. A definition
- of an identifier is a declaration for that identifier that:
- -- for an object, causes storage to be reserved for that object;
- -- for a function, includes the function body;119)

- -- for an enumeration constant or typedef name, is the (only) declaration of the
- identifier.
-6 The declaration specifiers consist of a sequence of specifiers that indicate the linkage,
- storage duration, and part of the type of the entities that the declarators denote. The init-
- declarator-list is a comma-separated sequence of declarators, each of which may have
- additional type information, or an initializer, or both. The declarators contain the
- identifiers (if any) being declared.
-7 If an identifier for an object is declared with no linkage, the type for the object shall be
- complete by the end of its declarator, or by the end of its init-declarator if it has an
- initializer; in the case of function parameters (including in prototypes), it is the adjusted
- type (see 6.7.6.3) that is required to be complete.

-1 storage-class-specifier:
- typedef
- extern
- static
- _Thread_local
- auto
- register
- Constraints
-2 At most, one storage-class specifier may be given in the declaration specifiers in a
- declaration, except that _Thread_local may appear with static or extern.120)
-3 In the declaration of an object with block scope, if the declaration specifiers include
- _Thread_local, they shall also include either static or extern. If
- _Thread_local appears in any declaration of an object, it shall be present in every
- declaration of that object.
- Semantics
-4 The typedef specifier is called a ''storage-class specifier'' for syntactic convenience
- only; it is discussed in 6.7.8. The meanings of the various linkages and storage durations
- were discussed in 6.2.2 and 6.2.4.

- 120) See ''future language directions'' (6.11.5).
-
-[page 108] (Contents)

-5 A declaration of an identifier for an object with storage-class specifier register
- suggests that access to the object be as fast as possible. The extent to which such
- suggestions are effective is implementation-defined.121)
-6 The declaration of an identifier for a function that has block scope shall have no explicit
- storage-class specifier other than extern.
-7 If an aggregate or union object is declared with a storage-class specifier other than
- typedef, the properties resulting from the storage-class specifier, except with respect to
- linkage, also apply to the members of the object, and so on recursively for any aggregate
- or union member objects.

- 121) The implementation may treat any register declaration simply as an auto declaration. However,
- whether or not addressable storage is actually used, the address of any part of an object declared with
- storage-class specifier register cannot be computed, either explicitly (by use of the unary &
- operator as discussed in 6.5.3.2) or implicitly (by converting an array name to a pointer as discussed in
- 6.3.2.1). Thus, the only operator that can be applied to an array declared with storage-class specifier
- register is sizeof.
-
-[page 109] (Contents)
-
- type specifiers shall be one of the following multisets (delimited by commas, when there

-
-
-[page 111] (Contents)
-
-3 A structure or union shall not contain a member with incomplete or function type (hence,
- a structure shall not contain an instance of itself, but may contain a pointer to an instance
- of itself), except that the last member of a structure with more than one named member
- may have incomplete array type; such a structure (and any union containing, possibly
- recursively, a member that is such a structure) shall not be a member of a structure or an
- element of an array.
-4 The expression that specifies the width of a bit-field shall be an integer constant
- expression with a nonnegative value that does not exceed the width of an object of the
- type that would be specified were the colon and expression omitted.122) If the value is
- zero, the declaration shall have no declarator.
-5 A bit-field shall have a type that is a qualified or unqualified version of _Bool, signed
- int, unsigned int, or some other implementation-defined type. It is
- implementation-defined whether atomic types are permitted.
- Semantics
-6 As discussed in 6.2.5, a structure is a type consisting of a sequence of members, whose
- storage is allocated in an ordered sequence, and a union is a type consisting of a sequence
- of members whose storage overlap.
-7 Structure and union specifiers have the same form. The keywords struct and union
- indicate that the type being specified is, respectively, a structure type or a union type.
-8 The presence of a struct-declaration-list in a struct-or-union-specifier declares a new type,
- within a translation unit. The struct-declaration-list is a sequence of declarations for the
- members of the structure or union. If the struct-declaration-list contains no named
- members, no anonymous structures, and no anonymous unions, the behavior is undefined.
- The type is incomplete until immediately after the } that terminates the list, and complete
- thereafter.
-9 A member of a structure or union may have any complete object type other than a
- variably modified type.123) In addition, a member may be declared to consist of a
- specified number of bits (including a sign bit, if any). Such a member is called a
- bit-field;124) its width is preceded by a colon.
-10 A bit-field is interpreted as having a signed or unsigned integer type consisting of the
- specified number of bits.125) If the value 0 or 1 is stored into a nonzero-width bit-field of
-
- 122) While the number of bits in a _Bool object is at least CHAR_BIT, the width (number of sign and
- value bits) of a _Bool may be just 1 bit.
- 123) A structure or union cannot contain a member with a variably modified type because member names
- are not ordinary identifiers as defined in 6.2.3.
- 124) The unary & (address-of) operator cannot be applied to a bit-field object; thus, there are no pointers to
- or arrays of bit-field objects.
-
-[page 112] (Contents)
-
- type _Bool, the value of the bit-field shall compare equal to the value stored; a _Bool
- bit-field has the semantics of a _Bool.
-11 An implementation may allocate any addressable storage unit large enough to hold a bit-
- field. If enough space remains, a bit-field that immediately follows another bit-field in a
- structure shall be packed into adjacent bits of the same unit. If insufficient space remains,
- whether a bit-field that does not fit is put into the next unit or overlaps adjacent units is
- implementation-defined. The order of allocation of bit-fields within a unit (high-order to
- low-order or low-order to high-order) is implementation-defined. The alignment of the
- addressable storage unit is unspecified.
-12 A bit-field declaration with no declarator, but only a colon and a width, indicates an
- unnamed bit-field.126) As a special case, a bit-field structure member with a width of 0
- indicates that no further bit-field is to be packed into the unit in which the previous bit-
- field, if any, was placed.
-13 An unnamed member of structure type with no tag is called an anonymous structure; an
- unnamed member of union type with no tag is called an anonymous union. The members
- of an anonymous structure or union are considered to be members of the containing
- structure or union. This applies recursively if the containing structure or union is also
- anonymous.
-14 Each non-bit-field member of a structure or union object is aligned in an implementation-
- defined manner appropriate to its type.
-15 Within a structure object, the non-bit-field members and the units in which bit-fields
- reside have addresses that increase in the order in which they are declared. A pointer to a
- structure object, suitably converted, points to its initial member (or if that member is a
- bit-field, then to the unit in which it resides), and vice versa. There may be unnamed
- padding within a structure object, but not at its beginning.
-16 The size of a union is sufficient to contain the largest of its members. The value of at
- most one of the members can be stored in a union object at any time. A pointer to a
- union object, suitably converted, points to each of its members (or if a member is a bit-
- field, then to the unit in which it resides), and vice versa.
-17 There may be unnamed padding at the end of a structure or union.
-18 As a special case, the last element of a structure with more than one named member may
- have an incomplete array type; this is called a flexible array member. In most situations,
-
-
- 125) As specified in 6.7.2 above, if the actual type specifier used is int or a typedef-name defined as int,
- then it is implementation-defined whether the bit-field is signed or unsigned.
- 126) An unnamed bit-field structure member is useful for padding to conform to externally imposed
- layouts.
-
-[page 113] (Contents)
-
- the flexible array member is ignored. In particular, the size of the structure is as if the
- flexible array member were omitted except that it may have more trailing padding than
- the omission would imply. However, when a . (or ->) operator has a left operand that is
- (a pointer to) a structure with a flexible array member and the right operand names that
- member, it behaves as if that member were replaced with the longest array (with the same
- element type) that would not make the structure larger than the object being accessed; the
- offset of the array shall remain that of the flexible array member, even if this would differ
- from that of the replacement array. If this array would have no elements, it behaves as if
- it had one element but the behavior is undefined if any attempt is made to access that
- element or to generate a pointer one past it.
-19 EXAMPLE 1 The following illustrates anonymous structures and unions:
- struct v {
- union { // anonymous union
- struct { int i, j; }; // anonymous structure
- struct { long k, l; } w;
- };
- int m;
- } v1;
- v1.i = 2; // valid
- v1.k = 3; // invalid: inner structure is not anonymous
- v1.w.k = 5; // valid
-
-20 EXAMPLE 2 After the declaration:
- struct s { int n; double d[]; };
- the structure struct s has a flexible array member d. A typical way to use this is:
- int m = /* some value */;
- struct s *p = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + sizeof (double [m]));
- and assuming that the call to malloc succeeds, the object pointed to by p behaves, for most purposes, as if
- p had been declared as:
- struct { int n; double d[m]; } *p;
- (there are circumstances in which this equivalence is broken; in particular, the offsets of member d might
- not be the same).
-21 Following the above declaration:
- struct s t1 = { 0 }; // valid
- struct s t2 = { 1, { 4.2 }}; // invalid
- t1.n = 4; // valid
- t1.d[0] = 4.2; // might be undefined behavior
- The initialization of t2 is invalid (and violates a constraint) because struct s is treated as if it did not
- contain member d. The assignment to t1.d[0] is probably undefined behavior, but it is possible that
- sizeof (struct s) >= offsetof(struct s, d) + sizeof (double)
- in which case the assignment would be legitimate. Nevertheless, it cannot appear in strictly conforming
- code.
-
-[page 114] (Contents)
-
-22 After the further declaration:
- struct ss { int n; };
- the expressions:
- sizeof (struct s) >= sizeof (struct ss)
- sizeof (struct s) >= offsetof(struct s, d)
- are always equal to 1.
-23 If sizeof (double) is 8, then after the following code is executed:
- struct s *s1;
- struct s *s2;
- s1 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 64);
- s2 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 46);
- and assuming that the calls to malloc succeed, the objects pointed to by s1 and s2 behave, for most
- purposes, as if the identifiers had been declared as:
- struct { int n; double d[8]; } *s1;
- struct { int n; double d[5]; } *s2;
-24 Following the further successful assignments:
- s1 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 10);
- s2 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 6);
- they then behave as if the declarations were:
- struct { int n; double d[1]; } *s1, *s2;
- and:
- double *dp;
- dp = &(s1->d[0]); // valid
- *dp = 42; // valid
- dp = &(s2->d[0]); // valid
- *dp = 42; // undefined behavior
-25 The assignment:
- *s1 = *s2;
- only copies the member n; if any of the array elements are within the first sizeof (struct s) bytes
- of the structure, they might be copied or simply overwritten with indeterminate values.

- constant expression that has a value representable as an int.
- Semantics
-3 The identifiers in an enumerator list are declared as constants that have type int and
- may appear wherever such are permitted.127) An enumerator with = defines its
- enumeration constant as the value of the constant expression. If the first enumerator has
- no =, the value of its enumeration constant is 0. Each subsequent enumerator with no =
- defines its enumeration constant as the value of the constant expression obtained by
- adding 1 to the value of the previous enumeration constant. (The use of enumerators with
- = may produce enumeration constants with values that duplicate other values in the same
- enumeration.) The enumerators of an enumeration are also known as its members.
-4 Each enumerated type shall be compatible with char, a signed integer type, or an
- unsigned integer type. The choice of type is implementation-defined,128) but shall be
- capable of representing the values of all the members of the enumeration. The
- enumerated type is incomplete until immediately after the } that terminates the list of

- without an enumerator list shall only appear after the type it specifies is complete.
- Semantics
-4 All declarations of structure, union, or enumerated types that have the same scope and
- use the same tag declare the same type. Irrespective of whether there is a tag or what
- other declarations of the type are in the same translation unit, the type is incomplete129)
- until immediately after the closing brace of the list defining the content, and complete
- thereafter.
-5 Two declarations of structure, union, or enumerated types which are in different scopes or
- use different tags declare distinct types. Each declaration of a structure, union, or
- enumerated type which does not include a tag declares a distinct type.
-6 A type specifier of the form
-
-
-
-
- 129) An incomplete type may only by used when the size of an object of that type is not needed. It is not
- needed, for example, when a typedef name is declared to be a specifier for a structure or union, or
- when a pointer to or a function returning a structure or union is being declared. (See incomplete types
- in 6.2.5.) The specification has to be complete before such a function is called or defined.

-
- struct-or-union identifieropt { struct-declaration-list }
- or
- enum identifieropt { enumerator-list }
- or
- enum identifieropt { enumerator-list , }
- declares a structure, union, or enumerated type. The list defines the structure content,
- union content, or enumeration content. If an identifier is provided,130) the type specifier
- also declares the identifier to be the tag of that type.
-7 A declaration of the form
- struct-or-union identifier ;
- specifies a structure or union type and declares the identifier as a tag of that type.131)
-8 If a type specifier of the form
- struct-or-union identifier
- occurs other than as part of one of the above forms, and no other declaration of the
- identifier as a tag is visible, then it declares an incomplete structure or union type, and
- declares the identifier as the tag of that type.131)
-9 If a type specifier of the form
- struct-or-union identifier
- or
- enum identifier
- occurs other than as part of one of the above forms, and a declaration of the identifier as a
- tag is visible, then it specifies the same type as that other declaration, and does not
- redeclare the tag.
-10 EXAMPLE 1 This mechanism allows declaration of a self-referential structure.
- struct tnode {
- int count;
- struct tnode *left, *right;
- };
- specifies a structure that contains an integer and two pointers to objects of the same type. Once this
- declaration has been given, the declaration
-
-
-
-
- 130) If there is no identifier, the type can, within the translation unit, only be referred to by the declaration
- of which it is a part. Of course, when the declaration is of a typedef name, subsequent declarations
- can make use of that typedef name to declare objects having the specified structure, union, or
- enumerated type.
- 131) A similar construction with enum does not exist.
-
-[page 118] (Contents)
-
- struct tnode s, *sp;
- declares s to be an object of the given type and sp to be a pointer to an object of the given type. With
- these declarations, the expression sp->left refers to the left struct tnode pointer of the object to
- which sp points; the expression s.right->count designates the count member of the right struct
- tnode pointed to from s.
-11 The following alternative formulation uses the typedef mechanism:
- typedef struct tnode TNODE;
- struct tnode {
- int count;
- TNODE *left, *right;
- };
- TNODE s, *sp;
-
-12 EXAMPLE 2 To illustrate the use of prior declaration of a tag to specify a pair of mutually referential
- structures, the declarations
- struct s1 { struct s2 *s2p; /* ... */ }; // D1
- struct s2 { struct s1 *s1p; /* ... */ }; // D2
- specify a pair of structures that contain pointers to each other. Note, however, that if s2 were already
- declared as a tag in an enclosing scope, the declaration D1 would refer to it, not to the tag s2 declared in
- D2. To eliminate this context sensitivity, the declaration
- struct s2;
- may be inserted ahead of D1. This declares a new tag s2 in the inner scope; the declaration D2 then
- completes the specification of the new type.

- 6.7.2.4 Atomic type specifiers
- Syntax
-1 atomic-type-specifier:
- _Atomic ( type-name )
- Constraints
-2 Atomic type specifiers shall not be used if the implementation does not support atomic
- types (see 6.10.8.3).
-3 The type name in an atomic type specifier shall not refer to an array type, a function type,
- an atomic type, or a qualified type.
- Semantics
-4 The properties associated with atomic types are meaningful only for expressions that are
- lvalues. If the _Atomic keyword is immediately followed by a left parenthesis, it is
- interpreted as a type specifier (with a type name), not as a type qualifier.
-
-
-
-
-[page 119] (Contents)
-
- 6.7.3 Type qualifiers
- Syntax
-1 type-qualifier:
- const
- restrict
- volatile
- _Atomic
- Constraints
-2 Types other than pointer types whose referenced type is an object type shall not be
- restrict-qualified.
-3 The type modified by the _Atomic qualifier shall not be an array type or a function
- type.
- Semantics
-4 The properties associated with qualified types are meaningful only for expressions that
- are lvalues.132)
-5 If the same qualifier appears more than once in the same specifier-qualifier-list, either
- directly or via one or more typedefs, the behavior is the same as if it appeared only
- once. If other qualifiers appear along with the _Atomic qualifier in a specifier-qualifier-
- list, the resulting type is the so-qualified atomic type.
-6 If an attempt is made to modify an object defined with a const-qualified type through use
- of an lvalue with non-const-qualified type, the behavior is undefined. If an attempt is
- made to refer to an object defined with a volatile-qualified type through use of an lvalue
- with non-volatile-qualified type, the behavior is undefined.133)
-7 An object that has volatile-qualified type may be modified in ways unknown to the
- implementation or have other unknown side effects. Therefore any expression referring
- to such an object shall be evaluated strictly according to the rules of the abstract machine,
- as described in 5.1.2.3. Furthermore, at every sequence point the value last stored in the
- object shall agree with that prescribed by the abstract machine, except as modified by the
-
-
-
-
- 132) The implementation may place a const object that is not volatile in a read-only region of
- storage. Moreover, the implementation need not allocate storage for such an object if its address is
- never used.
- 133) This applies to those objects that behave as if they were defined with qualified types, even if they are
- never actually defined as objects in the program (such as an object at a memory-mapped input/output
- address).
-
-[page 120] (Contents)
-
- unknown factors mentioned previously.134) What constitutes an access to an object that
- has volatile-qualified type is implementation-defined.
-8 An object that is accessed through a restrict-qualified pointer has a special association
- with that pointer. This association, defined in 6.7.3.1 below, requires that all accesses to
- that object use, directly or indirectly, the value of that particular pointer.135) The intended
- use of the restrict qualifier (like the register storage class) is to promote
- optimization, and deleting all instances of the qualifier from all preprocessing translation
- units composing a conforming program does not change its meaning (i.e., observable
- behavior).
-9 If the specification of an array type includes any type qualifiers, the element type is so-
- qualified, not the array type. If the specification of a function type includes any type
- qualifiers, the behavior is undefined.136)
-10 For two qualified types to be compatible, both shall have the identically qualified version
- of a compatible type; the order of type qualifiers within a list of specifiers or qualifiers
- does not affect the specified type.
-11 EXAMPLE 1 An object declared
- extern const volatile int real_time_clock;
- may be modifiable by hardware, but cannot be assigned to, incremented, or decremented.
-
-12 EXAMPLE 2 The following declarations and expressions illustrate the behavior when type qualifiers
- modify an aggregate type:
- const struct s { int mem; } cs = { 1 };
- struct s ncs; // the object ncs is modifiable
- typedef int A[2][3];
- const A a = {{4, 5, 6}, {7, 8, 9}}; // array of array of const int
- int *pi;
- const int *pci;
- ncs = cs; // valid
- cs = ncs; // violates modifiable lvalue constraint for =
- pi = &ncs.mem; // valid
- pi = &cs.mem; // violates type constraints for =
- pci = &cs.mem; // valid
- pi = a[0]; // invalid: a[0] has type ''const int *''
-
-
-
- 134) A volatile declaration may be used to describe an object corresponding to a memory-mapped
- input/output port or an object accessed by an asynchronously interrupting function. Actions on
- objects so declared shall not be ''optimized out'' by an implementation or reordered except as
- permitted by the rules for evaluating expressions.
- 135) For example, a statement that assigns a value returned by malloc to a single pointer establishes this
- association between the allocated object and the pointer.
- 136) Both of these can occur through the use of typedefs.
-
-[page 121] (Contents)
-
-13 EXAMPLE 3 The declaration
- _Atomic volatile int *p;
- specifies that p has the type ''pointer to volatile atomic int'', a pointer to a volatile-qualified atomic type.
-
- 6.7.3.1 Formal definition of restrict
-1 Let D be a declaration of an ordinary identifier that provides a means of designating an
- object P as a restrict-qualified pointer to type T.
-2 If D appears inside a block and does not have storage class extern, let B denote the
- block. If D appears in the list of parameter declarations of a function definition, let B
- denote the associated block. Otherwise, let B denote the block of main (or the block of
- whatever function is called at program startup in a freestanding environment).
-3 In what follows, a pointer expression E is said to be based on object P if (at some
- sequence point in the execution of B prior to the evaluation of E) modifying P to point to
- a copy of the array object into which it formerly pointed would change the value of E.137)
- Note that ''based'' is defined only for expressions with pointer types.
-4 During each execution of B, let L be any lvalue that has &L based on P. If L is used to
- access the value of the object X that it designates, and X is also modified (by any means),
- then the following requirements apply: T shall not be const-qualified. Every other lvalue
- used to access the value of X shall also have its address based on P. Every access that
- modifies X shall be considered also to modify P, for the purposes of this subclause. If P
- is assigned the value of a pointer expression E that is based on another restricted pointer
- object P2, associated with block B2, then either the execution of B2 shall begin before
- the execution of B, or the execution of B2 shall end prior to the assignment. If these
- requirements are not met, then the behavior is undefined.
-5 Here an execution of B means that portion of the execution of the program that would
- correspond to the lifetime of an object with scalar type and automatic storage duration
- associated with B.
-6 A translator is free to ignore any or all aliasing implications of uses of restrict.
-7 EXAMPLE 1 The file scope declarations
- int * restrict a;
- int * restrict b;
- extern int c[];
- assert that if an object is accessed using one of a, b, or c, and that object is modified anywhere in the
- program, then it is never accessed using either of the other two.
-
-
- 137) In other words, E depends on the value of P itself rather than on the value of an object referenced
- indirectly through P. For example, if identifier p has type (int **restrict), then the pointer
- expressions p and p+1 are based on the restricted pointer object designated by p, but the pointer
- expressions *p and p[1] are not.
-
-[page 122] (Contents)
-
-8 EXAMPLE 2 The function parameter declarations in the following example
- void f(int n, int * restrict p, int * restrict q)
- {
- while (n-- > 0)
- *p++ = *q++;
- }
- assert that, during each execution of the function, if an object is accessed through one of the pointer
- parameters, then it is not also accessed through the other.
-9 The benefit of the restrict qualifiers is that they enable a translator to make an effective dependence
- analysis of function f without examining any of the calls of f in the program. The cost is that the
- programmer has to examine all of those calls to ensure that none give undefined behavior. For example, the
- second call of f in g has undefined behavior because each of d[1] through d[49] is accessed through
- both p and q.
- void g(void)
- {
- extern int d[100];
- f(50, d + 50, d); // valid
- f(50, d + 1, d); // undefined behavior
- }
-
-10 EXAMPLE 3 The function parameter declarations
- void h(int n, int * restrict p, int * restrict q, int * restrict r)
- {
- int i;
- for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
- p[i] = q[i] + r[i];
- }
- illustrate how an unmodified object can be aliased through two restricted pointers. In particular, if a and b
- are disjoint arrays, a call of the form h(100, a, b, b) has defined behavior, because array b is not
- modified within function h.
-
-11 EXAMPLE 4 The rule limiting assignments between restricted pointers does not distinguish between a
- function call and an equivalent nested block. With one exception, only ''outer-to-inner'' assignments
- between restricted pointers declared in nested blocks have defined behavior.
- {
- int * restrict p1;
- int * restrict q1;
- p1 = q1; // undefined behavior
- {
- int * restrict p2 = p1; // valid
- int * restrict q2 = q1; // valid
- p1 = q2; // undefined behavior
- p2 = q2; // undefined behavior
- }
- }
-
-
-
-
-[page 123] (Contents)
-
-12 The one exception allows the value of a restricted pointer to be carried out of the block in which it (or, more
- precisely, the ordinary identifier used to designate it) is declared when that block finishes execution. For
- example, this permits new_vector to return a vector.
- typedef struct { int n; float * restrict v; } vector;
- vector new_vector(int n)
- {
- vector t;
- t.n = n;
- t.v = malloc(n * sizeof (float));
- return t;
- }
-
- 6.7.4 Function specifiers
- Syntax
-1 function-specifier:
- inline
- _Noreturn
- Constraints
-2 Function specifiers shall be used only in the declaration of an identifier for a function.
-3 An inline definition of a function with external linkage shall not contain a definition of a
- modifiable object with static or thread storage duration, and shall not contain a reference
- to an identifier with internal linkage.
-4 In a hosted environment, no function specifier(s) shall appear in a declaration of main.
- Semantics
-5 A function specifier may appear more than once; the behavior is the same as if it
- appeared only once.
-6 A function declared with an inline function specifier is an inline function. Making a *
- function an inline function suggests that calls to the function be as fast as possible.138)
- The extent to which such suggestions are effective is implementation-defined.139)
-
-
-
-
- 138) By using, for example, an alternative to the usual function call mechanism, such as ''inline
- substitution''. Inline substitution is not textual substitution, nor does it create a new function.
- Therefore, for example, the expansion of a macro used within the body of the function uses the
- definition it had at the point the function body appears, and not where the function is called; and
- identifiers refer to the declarations in scope where the body occurs. Likewise, the function has a
- single address, regardless of the number of inline definitions that occur in addition to the external
- definition.
- 139) For example, an implementation might never perform inline substitution, or might only perform inline
- substitutions to calls in the scope of an inline declaration.
-
-[page 124] (Contents)
-
-7 Any function with internal linkage can be an inline function. For a function with external
- linkage, the following restrictions apply: If a function is declared with an inline
- function specifier, then it shall also be defined in the same translation unit. If all of the
- file scope declarations for a function in a translation unit include the inline function
- specifier without extern, then the definition in that translation unit is an inline
- definition. An inline definition does not provide an external definition for the function,
- and does not forbid an external definition in another translation unit. An inline definition
- provides an alternative to an external definition, which a translator may use to implement
- any call to the function in the same translation unit. It is unspecified whether a call to the
- function uses the inline definition or the external definition.140)
-8 A function declared with a _Noreturn function specifier shall not return to its caller.
- Recommended practice
-9 The implementation should produce a diagnostic message for a function declared with a
- _Noreturn function specifier that appears to be capable of returning to its caller.
-10 EXAMPLE 1 The declaration of an inline function with external linkage can result in either an external
- definition, or a definition available for use only within the translation unit. A file scope declaration with
- extern creates an external definition. The following example shows an entire translation unit.
- inline double fahr(double t)
- {
- return (9.0 * t) / 5.0 + 32.0;
- }
- inline double cels(double t)
- {
- return (5.0 * (t - 32.0)) / 9.0;
- }
- extern double fahr(double); // creates an external definition
- double convert(int is_fahr, double temp)
- {
- /* A translator may perform inline substitutions */
- return is_fahr ? cels(temp) : fahr(temp);
- }
-11 Note that the definition of fahr is an external definition because fahr is also declared with extern, but
- the definition of cels is an inline definition. Because cels has external linkage and is referenced, an
- external definition has to appear in another translation unit (see 6.9); the inline definition and the external
- definition are distinct and either may be used for the call.
-
-12 EXAMPLE 2
-
-
-
-
- 140) Since an inline definition is distinct from the corresponding external definition and from any other
- corresponding inline definitions in other translation units, all corresponding objects with static storage
- duration are also distinct in each of the definitions.
-

- _Noreturn void g (int i) { // causes undefined behavior if i <= 0

- 6.7.5 Alignment specifier
- Syntax
-1 alignment-specifier:
- _Alignas ( type-name )
- _Alignas ( constant-expression )
- Constraints
-2 An alignment attribute shall not be specified in a declaration of a typedef, or a bit-field, or
- a function, or a parameter, or an object declared with the register storage-class
- specifier.
-3 The constant expression shall be an integer constant expression. It shall evaluate to a
- valid fundamental alignment, or to a valid extended alignment supported by the
- implementation in the context in which it appears, or to zero.
-4 The combined effect of all alignment attributes in a declaration shall not specify an
- alignment that is less strict than the alignment that would otherwise be required for the
- type of the object or member being declared.
- Semantics
-5 The first form is equivalent to _Alignas(alignof(type-name)).
-6 The alignment requirement of the declared object or member is taken to be the specified
- alignment. An alignment specification of zero has no effect.141) When multiple
- alignment specifiers occur in a declaration, the effective alignment requirement is the
- strictest specified alignment.
-7 If the definition of an object has an alignment specifier, any other declaration of that
- object shall either specify equivalent alignment or have no alignment specifier. If the
- definition of an object does not have an alignment specifier, any other declaration of that
- object shall also have no alignment specifier. If declarations of an object in different
- translation units have different alignment specifiers, the behavior is undefined.
-
-
-
- 141) An alignment specification of zero also does not affect other alignment specifications in the same
- declaration.

-1 declarator:
- pointeropt direct-declarator
- direct-declarator:

- ( declarator )
- direct-declarator [ type-qualifier-listopt assignment-expressionopt ]
- direct-declarator [ static type-qualifier-listopt assignment-expression ]
- direct-declarator [ type-qualifier-list static assignment-expression ]
- direct-declarator [ type-qualifier-listopt * ]
- direct-declarator ( parameter-type-list )

- parameter-list , parameter-declaration
- parameter-declaration:
- declaration-specifiers declarator
- declaration-specifiers abstract-declaratoropt
- identifier-list:
- identifier
- identifier-list , identifier
- Semantics
-2 Each declarator declares one identifier, and asserts that when an operand of the same
- form as the declarator appears in an expression, it designates a function or object with the
- scope, storage duration, and type indicated by the declaration specifiers.
-3 A full declarator is a declarator that is not part of another declarator. The end of a full
- declarator is a sequence point. If, in the nested sequence of declarators in a full
-[page 127] (Contents)
-
- declarator, there is a declarator specifying a variable length array type, the type specified
- by the full declarator is said to be variably modified. Furthermore, any type derived by
- declarator type derivation from a variably modified type is itself variably modified.
-4 In the following subclauses, consider a declaration
- T D1
- where T contains the declaration specifiers that specify a type T (such as int) and D1 is
- a declarator that contains an identifier ident. The type specified for the identifier ident in
- the various forms of declarator is described inductively using this notation.
-5 If, in the declaration ''T D1'', D1 has the form
- identifier
- then the type specified for ident is T .
-6 If, in the declaration ''T D1'', D1 has the form
- ( D )
- then ident has the type specified by the declaration ''T D''. Thus, a declarator in
- parentheses is identical to the unparenthesized declarator, but the binding of complicated
- declarators may be altered by parentheses.
- Implementation limits
-7 As discussed in 5.2.4.1, an implementation may limit the number of pointer, array, and
- function declarators that modify an arithmetic, structure, union, or void type, either
- directly or via one or more typedefs.
- Forward references: array declarators (6.7.6.2), type definitions (6.7.8).
- 6.7.6.1 Pointer declarators
- Semantics
-1 If, in the declaration ''T D1'', D1 has the form
- * type-qualifier-listopt D
- and the type specified for ident in the declaration ''T D'' is ''derived-declarator-type-list
- T '', then the type specified for ident is ''derived-declarator-type-list type-qualifier-list
- pointer to T ''. For each type qualifier in the list, ident is a so-qualified pointer.
-2 For two pointer types to be compatible, both shall be identically qualified and both shall
- be pointers to compatible types.
-3 EXAMPLE The following pair of declarations demonstrates the difference between a ''variable pointer
- to a constant value'' and a ''constant pointer to a variable value''.
-
-
-
-
-[page 128] (Contents)
-
- const int *ptr_to_constant;
- int *const constant_ptr;
- The contents of any object pointed to by ptr_to_constant shall not be modified through that pointer,
- but ptr_to_constant itself may be changed to point to another object. Similarly, the contents of the
- int pointed to by constant_ptr may be modified, but constant_ptr itself shall always point to the
- same location.
-4 The declaration of the constant pointer constant_ptr may be clarified by including a definition for the
- type ''pointer to int''.
- typedef int *int_ptr;
- const int_ptr constant_ptr;
- declares constant_ptr as an object that has type ''const-qualified pointer to int''.
-
- 6.7.6.2 Array declarators
- Constraints
-1 In addition to optional type qualifiers and the keyword static, the [ and ] may delimit
- an expression or *. If they delimit an expression (which specifies the size of an array), the
- expression shall have an integer type. If the expression is a constant expression, it shall
- have a value greater than zero. The element type shall not be an incomplete or function
- type. The optional type qualifiers and the keyword static shall appear only in a
- declaration of a function parameter with an array type, and then only in the outermost
- array type derivation.
-2 If an identifier is declared as having a variably modified type, it shall be an ordinary
- identifier (as defined in 6.2.3), have no linkage, and have either block scope or function
- prototype scope. If an identifier is declared to be an object with static or thread storage
- duration, it shall not have a variable length array type.
- Semantics
-3 If, in the declaration ''T D1'', D1 has one of the forms:
- D[ type-qualifier-listopt assignment-expressionopt ]
- D[ static type-qualifier-listopt assignment-expression ]
- D[ type-qualifier-list static assignment-expression ]
- D[ type-qualifier-listopt * ]
- and the type specified for ident in the declaration ''T D'' is ''derived-declarator-type-list
- T '', then the type specified for ident is ''derived-declarator-type-list array of T ''.142)
- (See 6.7.6.3 for the meaning of the optional type qualifiers and the keyword static.)
-4 If the size is not present, the array type is an incomplete type. If the size is * instead of
- being an expression, the array type is a variable length array type of unspecified size,
- which can only be used in declarations or type names with function prototype scope;143)
-
- 142) When several ''array of'' specifications are adjacent, a multidimensional array is declared.
-
-[page 129] (Contents)
-
- such arrays are nonetheless complete types. If the size is an integer constant expression
- and the element type has a known constant size, the array type is not a variable length
- array type; otherwise, the array type is a variable length array type. (Variable length
- arrays are a conditional feature that implementations need not support; see 6.10.8.3.)
-5 If the size is an expression that is not an integer constant expression: if it occurs in a
- declaration at function prototype scope, it is treated as if it were replaced by *; otherwise,
- each time it is evaluated it shall have a value greater than zero. The size of each instance
- of a variable length array type does not change during its lifetime. Where a size
- expression is part of the operand of a sizeof operator and changing the value of the
- size expression would not affect the result of the operator, it is unspecified whether or not
- the size expression is evaluated.
-6 For two array types to be compatible, both shall have compatible element types, and if
- both size specifiers are present, and are integer constant expressions, then both size
- specifiers shall have the same constant value. If the two array types are used in a context
- which requires them to be compatible, it is undefined behavior if the two size specifiers
- evaluate to unequal values.
-7 EXAMPLE 1
- float fa[11], *afp[17];
- declares an array of float numbers and an array of pointers to float numbers.
-
-8 EXAMPLE 2 Note the distinction between the declarations
- extern int *x;
- extern int y[];
- The first declares x to be a pointer to int; the second declares y to be an array of int of unspecified size
- (an incomplete type), the storage for which is defined elsewhere.
-
-9 EXAMPLE 3 The following declarations demonstrate the compatibility rules for variably modified types.
- extern int n;
- extern int m;
- void fcompat(void)
- {
- int a[n][6][m];
- int (*p)[4][n+1];
- int c[n][n][6][m];
- int (*r)[n][n][n+1];
- p = a; // invalid: not compatible because 4 != 6
- r = c; // compatible, but defined behavior only if
- // n == 6 and m == n+1
- }
-
-
-
-
- 143) Thus, * can be used only in function declarations that are not definitions (see 6.7.6.3).
-
-[page 130] (Contents)
-
-10 EXAMPLE 4 All declarations of variably modified (VM) types have to be at either block scope or
- function prototype scope. Array objects declared with the _Thread_local, static, or extern
- storage-class specifier cannot have a variable length array (VLA) type. However, an object declared with

-3 An identifier list in a function declarator that is not part of a definition of that function
- shall be empty.

-[page 131] (Contents)
-
- D( parameter-type-list )
- or
- D( identifier-listopt )
- and the type specified for ident in the declaration ''T D'' is ''derived-declarator-type-list
- T '', then the type specified for ident is ''derived-declarator-type-list function returning
- T ''.
-6 A parameter type list specifies the types of, and may declare identifiers for, the
- parameters of the function.
-7 A declaration of a parameter as ''array of type'' shall be adjusted to ''qualified pointer to
- type'', where the type qualifiers (if any) are those specified within the [ and ] of the
- array type derivation. If the keyword static also appears within the [ and ] of the
- array type derivation, then for each call to the function, the value of the corresponding
- actual argument shall provide access to the first element of an array with at least as many
- elements as specified by the size expression.
-8 A declaration of a parameter as ''function returning type'' shall be adjusted to ''pointer to
- function returning type'', as in 6.3.2.1.
-9 If the list terminates with an ellipsis (, ...), no information about the number or types
- of the parameters after the comma is supplied.144)
-10 The special case of an unnamed parameter of type void as the only item in the list
- specifies that the function has no parameters.
-11 If, in a parameter declaration, an identifier can be treated either as a typedef name or as a
- parameter name, it shall be taken as a typedef name.
-12 If the function declarator is not part of a definition of that function, parameters may have
- incomplete type and may use the [*] notation in their sequences of declarator specifiers
- to specify variable length array types.
-13 The storage-class specifier in the declaration specifiers for a parameter declaration, if
- present, is ignored unless the declared parameter is one of the members of the parameter
- type list for a function definition.
-14 An identifier list declares only the identifiers of the parameters of the function. An empty
- list in a function declarator that is part of a definition of that function specifies that the
- function has no parameters. The empty list in a function declarator that is not part of a
- definition of that function specifies that no information about the number or types of the
- parameters is supplied.145)

-15 For two function types to be compatible, both shall specify compatible return types.146)
- Moreover, the parameter type lists, if both are present, shall agree in the number of
- parameters and in use of the ellipsis terminator; corresponding parameters shall have
- compatible types. If one type has a parameter type list and the other type is specified by a
- function declarator that is not part of a function definition and that contains an empty
- identifier list, the parameter list shall not have an ellipsis terminator and the type of each
- parameter shall be compatible with the type that results from the application of the
- default argument promotions. If one type has a parameter type list and the other type is
- specified by a function definition that contains a (possibly empty) identifier list, both shall
- agree in the number of parameters, and the type of each prototype parameter shall be
- compatible with the type that results from the application of the default argument
- promotions to the type of the corresponding identifier. (In the determination of type
- compatibility and of a composite type, each parameter declared with function or array
- type is taken as having the adjusted type and each parameter declared with qualified type
- is taken as having the unqualified version of its declared type.)
-16 EXAMPLE 1 The declaration
- int f(void), *fip(), (*pfi)();
- declares a function f with no parameters returning an int, a function fip with no parameter specification
- returning a pointer to an int, and a pointer pfi to a function with no parameter specification returning an
- int. It is especially useful to compare the last two. The binding of *fip() is *(fip()), so that the
- declaration suggests, and the same construction in an expression requires, the calling of a function fip,
- and then using indirection through the pointer result to yield an int. In the declarator (*pfi)(), the
- extra parentheses are necessary to indicate that indirection through a pointer to a function yields a function
- designator, which is then used to call the function; it returns an int.
-17 If the declaration occurs outside of any function, the identifiers have file scope and external linkage. If the
- declaration occurs inside a function, the identifiers of the functions f and fip have block scope and either
- internal or external linkage (depending on what file scope declarations for these identifiers are visible), and
- the identifier of the pointer pfi has block scope and no linkage.
-
-18 EXAMPLE 2 The declaration
- int (*apfi[3])(int *x, int *y);
- declares an array apfi of three pointers to functions returning int. Each of these functions has two
- parameters that are pointers to int. The identifiers x and y are declared for descriptive purposes only and
- go out of scope at the end of the declaration of apfi.
-
-19 EXAMPLE 3 The declaration
- int (*fpfi(int (*)(long), int))(int, ...);
- declares a function fpfi that returns a pointer to a function returning an int. The function fpfi has two
- parameters: a pointer to a function returning an int (with one parameter of type long int), and an int.
- The pointer returned by fpfi points to a function that has one int parameter and accepts zero or more

- void f(double (* restrict a)[5]);
- void f(double a[restrict][5]);
- void f(double a[restrict 3][5]);
- void f(double a[restrict static 3][5]);
- (Note that the last declaration also specifies that the argument corresponding to a in any call to f must be a
- non-null pointer to the first of at least three arrays of 5 doubles, which the others do not.)

- direct-abstract-declaratoropt ( parameter-type-listopt )
- Semantics
-2 In several contexts, it is necessary to specify a type. This is accomplished using a type
- name, which is syntactically a declaration for a function or an object of that type that
- omits the identifier.147)
-3 EXAMPLE The constructions
- (a) int
- (b) int *
- (c) int *[3]
- (d) int (*)[3]
- (e) int (*)[*]
- (f) int *()
- (g) int (*)(void)
- (h) int (*const [])(unsigned int, ...)
- name respectively the types (a) int, (b) pointer to int, (c) array of three pointers to int, (d) pointer to an
- array of three ints, (e) pointer to a variable length array of an unspecified number of ints, (f) function
- with no parameter specification returning a pointer to int, (g) pointer to function with no parameters
- returning an int, and (h) array of an unspecified number of constant pointers to functions, each with one
- parameter that has type unsigned int and an unspecified number of other parameters, returning an
- int.
-
-
-
-
- 147) As indicated by the syntax, empty parentheses in a type name are interpreted as ''function with no
- parameter specification'', rather than redundant parentheses around the omitted identifier.

- 6.7.8 Type definitions
- Syntax
-1 typedef-name:
- identifier
- Constraints
-2 If a typedef name specifies a variably modified type then it shall have block scope.
- Semantics
-3 In a declaration whose storage-class specifier is typedef, each declarator defines an
- identifier to be a typedef name that denotes the type specified for the identifier in the way
- described in 6.7.6. Any array size expressions associated with variable length array
- declarators are evaluated each time the declaration of the typedef name is reached in the
- order of execution. A typedef declaration does not introduce a new type, only a
- synonym for the type so specified. That is, in the following declarations:
- typedef T type_ident;
- type_ident D;
- type_ident is defined as a typedef name with the type specified by the declaration
- specifiers in T (known as T ), and the identifier in D has the type ''derived-declarator-
- type-list T '' where the derived-declarator-type-list is specified by the declarators of D. A
- typedef name shares the same name space as other identifiers declared in ordinary
- declarators.
-4 EXAMPLE 1 After
- typedef int MILES, KLICKSP();
- typedef struct { double hi, lo; } range;
- the constructions
- MILES distance;
- extern KLICKSP *metricp;
- range x;
- range z, *zp;
- are all valid declarations. The type of distance is int, that of metricp is ''pointer to function with no
- parameter specification returning int'', and that of x and z is the specified structure; zp is a pointer to
- such a structure. The object distance has a type compatible with any other int object.
-
-5 EXAMPLE 2 After the declarations
- typedef struct s1 { int x; } t1, *tp1;
- typedef struct s2 { int x; } t2, *tp2;
- type t1 and the type pointed to by tp1 are compatible. Type t1 is also compatible with type struct
- s1, but not compatible with the types struct s2, t2, the type pointed to by tp2, or int.

-6 EXAMPLE 3 The following obscure constructions
- typedef signed int t;
- typedef int plain;
- struct tag {
- unsigned t:4;
- const t:5;
- plain r:5;
- };
- declare a typedef name t with type signed int, a typedef name plain with type int, and a structure
- with three bit-field members, one named t that contains values in the range [0, 15], an unnamed const-
- qualified bit-field which (if it could be accessed) would contain values in either the range [-15, +15] or
- [-16, +15], and one named r that contains values in one of the ranges [0, 31], [-15, +15], or [-16, +15].
- (The choice of range is implementation-defined.) The first two bit-field declarations differ in that
- unsigned is a type specifier (which forces t to be the name of a structure member), while const is a
- type qualifier (which modifies t which is still visible as a typedef name). If these declarations are followed
- in an inner scope by
- t f(t (t));
- long t;
- then a function f is declared with type ''function returning signed int with one unnamed parameter
- with type pointer to function returning signed int with one unnamed parameter with type signed
- int'', and an identifier t with type long int.
-
-7 EXAMPLE 4 On the other hand, typedef names can be used to improve code readability. All three of the
- following declarations of the signal function specify exactly the same type, the first without making use
- of any typedef names.
- typedef void fv(int), (*pfv)(int);
- void (*signal(int, void (*)(int)))(int);
- fv *signal(int, fv *);
- pfv signal(int, pfv);
-
-8 EXAMPLE 5 If a typedef name denotes a variable length array type, the length of the array is fixed at the
- time the typedef name is defined, not each time it is used:
- void copyt(int n)
- {
- typedef int B[n]; // B is n ints, n evaluated now
- n += 1;
- B a; // a is n ints, n without += 1
- int b[n]; // a and b are different sizes
- for (int i = 1; i < n; i++)
- a[i-1] = b[i];

- Constraints
-2 No initializer shall attempt to provide a value for an object not contained within the entity
- being initialized.
-3 The type of the entity to be initialized shall be an array of unknown size or a complete
- object type that is not a variable length array type.
-4 All the expressions in an initializer for an object that has static or thread storage duration
- shall be constant expressions or string literals.
-5 If the declaration of an identifier has block scope, and the identifier has external or
- internal linkage, the declaration shall have no initializer for the identifier.
-6 If a designator has the form
- [ constant-expression ]
- then the current object (defined below) shall have array type and the expression shall be
- an integer constant expression. If the array is of unknown size, any nonnegative value is
- valid.
-7 If a designator has the form
- . identifier
- then the current object (defined below) shall have structure or union type and the
- identifier shall be the name of a member of that type.
-[page 138] (Contents)
-
- Semantics
-8 An initializer specifies the initial value stored in an object.
-9 Except where explicitly stated otherwise, for the purposes of this subclause unnamed
- members of objects of structure and union type do not participate in initialization.
- Unnamed members of structure objects have indeterminate value even after initialization.
-10 If an object that has automatic storage duration is not initialized explicitly, its value is
- indeterminate. If an object that has static or thread storage duration is not initialized
- explicitly, then:
- -- if it has pointer type, it is initialized to a null pointer;
- -- if it has arithmetic type, it is initialized to (positive or unsigned) zero;
- -- if it is an aggregate, every member is initialized (recursively) according to these rules,
- and any padding is initialized to zero bits;
- -- if it is a union, the first named member is initialized (recursively) according to these
- rules, and any padding is initialized to zero bits;
-11 The initializer for a scalar shall be a single expression, optionally enclosed in braces. The
- initial value of the object is that of the expression (after conversion); the same type
- constraints and conversions as for simple assignment apply, taking the type of the scalar
- to be the unqualified version of its declared type.
-12 The rest of this subclause deals with initializers for objects that have aggregate or union
- type.
-13 The initializer for a structure or union object that has automatic storage duration shall be
- either an initializer list as described below, or a single expression that has compatible
- structure or union type. In the latter case, the initial value of the object, including
- unnamed members, is that of the expression.
-14 An array of character type may be initialized by a character string literal or UTF-8 string
- literal, optionally enclosed in braces. Successive bytes of the string literal (including the
- terminating null character if there is room or if the array is of unknown size) initialize the
- elements of the array.
-15 An array with element type compatible with a qualified or unqualified version of
- wchar_t may be initialized by a wide string literal, optionally enclosed in braces.
- Successive wide characters of the wide string literal (including the terminating null wide
- character if there is room or if the array is of unknown size) initialize the elements of the
- array.
-16 Otherwise, the initializer for an object that has aggregate or union type shall be a brace-
- enclosed list of initializers for the elements or named members.
-
-
-[page 139] (Contents)
-
-17 Each brace-enclosed initializer list has an associated current object. When no
- designations are present, subobjects of the current object are initialized in order according
- to the type of the current object: array elements in increasing subscript order, structure
- members in declaration order, and the first named member of a union.148) In contrast, a
- designation causes the following initializer to begin initialization of the subobject
- described by the designator. Initialization then continues forward in order, beginning
- with the next subobject after that described by the designator.149)
-18 Each designator list begins its description with the current object associated with the
- closest surrounding brace pair. Each item in the designator list (in order) specifies a
- particular member of its current object and changes the current object for the next
- designator (if any) to be that member.150) The current object that results at the end of the
- designator list is the subobject to be initialized by the following initializer.
-19 The initialization shall occur in initializer list order, each initializer provided for a
- particular subobject overriding any previously listed initializer for the same subobject;151)
- all subobjects that are not initialized explicitly shall be initialized implicitly the same as
- objects that have static storage duration.
-20 If the aggregate or union contains elements or members that are aggregates or unions,
- these rules apply recursively to the subaggregates or contained unions. If the initializer of
- a subaggregate or contained union begins with a left brace, the initializers enclosed by
- that brace and its matching right brace initialize the elements or members of the
- subaggregate or the contained union. Otherwise, only enough initializers from the list are
- taken to account for the elements or members of the subaggregate or the first member of
- the contained union; any remaining initializers are left to initialize the next element or
- member of the aggregate of which the current subaggregate or contained union is a part.
-21 If there are fewer initializers in a brace-enclosed list than there are elements or members
- of an aggregate, or fewer characters in a string literal used to initialize an array of known
- size than there are elements in the array, the remainder of the aggregate shall be
- initialized implicitly the same as objects that have static storage duration.
-
-
-
- 148) If the initializer list for a subaggregate or contained union does not begin with a left brace, its
- subobjects are initialized as usual, but the subaggregate or contained union does not become the
- current object: current objects are associated only with brace-enclosed initializer lists.
- 149) After a union member is initialized, the next object is not the next member of the union; instead, it is
- the next subobject of an object containing the union.
- 150) Thus, a designator can only specify a strict subobject of the aggregate or union that is associated with
- the surrounding brace pair. Note, too, that each separate designator list is independent.
- 151) Any initializer for the subobject which is overridden and so not used to initialize that subobject might
- not be evaluated at all.
-
-[page 140] (Contents)
-
-22 If an array of unknown size is initialized, its size is determined by the largest indexed
- element with an explicit initializer. The array type is completed at the end of its
- initializer list.
-23 The evaluations of the initialization list expressions are indeterminately sequenced with
- respect to one another and thus the order in which any side effects occur is
- unspecified.152)
-24 EXAMPLE 1 Provided that <complex.h> has been #included, the declarations
- int i = 3.5;
- double complex c = 5 + 3 * I;
- define and initialize i with the value 3 and c with the value 5.0 + i3.0.
-
-25 EXAMPLE 2 The declaration
- int x[] = { 1, 3, 5 };
- defines and initializes x as a one-dimensional array object that has three elements, as no size was specified
- and there are three initializers.
-
-26 EXAMPLE 3 The declaration
- int y[4][3] = {
- { 1, 3, 5 },
- { 2, 4, 6 },
- { 3, 5, 7 },
- };
- is a definition with a fully bracketed initialization: 1, 3, and 5 initialize the first row of y (the array object
- y[0]), namely y[0][0], y[0][1], and y[0][2]. Likewise the next two lines initialize y[1] and
- y[2]. The initializer ends early, so y[3] is initialized with zeros. Precisely the same effect could have
- been achieved by
- int y[4][3] = {
- 1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6, 3, 5, 7
- };
- The initializer for y[0] does not begin with a left brace, so three items from the list are used. Likewise the
- next three are taken successively for y[1] and y[2].
-
-27 EXAMPLE 4 The declaration
- int z[4][3] = {
- { 1 }, { 2 }, { 3 }, { 4 }
- };
- initializes the first column of z as specified and initializes the rest with zeros.
-
-28 EXAMPLE 5 The declaration
- struct { int a[3], b; } w[] = { { 1 }, 2 };
- is a definition with an inconsistently bracketed initialization. It defines an array with two element
-
-
-
- 152) In particular, the evaluation order need not be the same as the order of subobject initialization.
-
-[page 141] (Contents)
-
- structures: w[0].a[0] is 1 and w[1].a[0] is 2; all the other elements are zero.
-
-29 EXAMPLE 6 The declaration
- short q[4][3][2] = {
- { 1 },
- { 2, 3 },
- { 4, 5, 6 }
- };
- contains an incompletely but consistently bracketed initialization. It defines a three-dimensional array
- object: q[0][0][0] is 1, q[1][0][0] is 2, q[1][0][1] is 3, and 4, 5, and 6 initialize
- q[2][0][0], q[2][0][1], and q[2][1][0], respectively; all the rest are zero. The initializer for
- q[0][0] does not begin with a left brace, so up to six items from the current list may be used. There is
- only one, so the values for the remaining five elements are initialized with zero. Likewise, the initializers
- for q[1][0] and q[2][0] do not begin with a left brace, so each uses up to six items, initializing their
- respective two-dimensional subaggregates. If there had been more than six items in any of the lists, a
- diagnostic message would have been issued. The same initialization result could have been achieved by:
- short q[4][3][2] = {
- 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
- 2, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0,
- 4, 5, 6
- };
- or by:
- short q[4][3][2] = {
- {
- { 1 },
- },
- {
- { 2, 3 },
- },
- {
- { 4, 5 },
- { 6 },
- }
- };
- in a fully bracketed form.
-30 Note that the fully bracketed and minimally bracketed forms of initialization are, in general, less likely to
- cause confusion.
-
-31 EXAMPLE 7 One form of initialization that completes array types involves typedef names. Given the
- declaration
- typedef int A[]; // OK - declared with block scope
- the declaration
- A a = { 1, 2 }, b = { 3, 4, 5 };
- is identical to
- int a[] = { 1, 2 }, b[] = { 3, 4, 5 };
- due to the rules for incomplete types.
-
-[page 142] (Contents)
-
-32 EXAMPLE 8 The declaration
- char s[] = "abc", t[3] = "abc";
- defines ''plain'' char array objects s and t whose elements are initialized with character string literals.
- This declaration is identical to
- char s[] = { 'a', 'b', 'c', '\0' },
- t[] = { 'a', 'b', 'c' };
- The contents of the arrays are modifiable. On the other hand, the declaration
- char *p = "abc";
- defines p with type ''pointer to char'' and initializes it to point to an object with type ''array of char''
- with length 4 whose elements are initialized with a character string literal. If an attempt is made to use p to
- modify the contents of the array, the behavior is undefined.
-
-33 EXAMPLE 9 Arrays can be initialized to correspond to the elements of an enumeration by using
- designators:
- enum { member_one, member_two };
- const char *nm[] = {
- [member_two] = "member two",
- [member_one] = "member one",
- };
-
-34 EXAMPLE 10 Structure members can be initialized to nonzero values without depending on their order:
- div_t answer = { .quot = 2, .rem = -1 };
-
-35 EXAMPLE 11 Designators can be used to provide explicit initialization when unadorned initializer lists
- might be misunderstood:
- struct { int a[3], b; } w[] =
- { [0].a = {1}, [1].a[0] = 2 };
-
-36 EXAMPLE 12 Space can be ''allocated'' from both ends of an array by using a single designator:
- int a[MAX] = {
- 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, [MAX-5] = 8, 6, 4, 2, 0
- };
-37 In the above, if MAX is greater than ten, there will be some zero-valued elements in the middle; if it is less
- than ten, some of the values provided by the first five initializers will be overridden by the second five.

- 6.8 Statements and blocks
- Syntax
-1 statement:
- labeled-statement
- compound-statement
- expression-statement
- selection-statement
- iteration-statement
- jump-statement
- Semantics
-2 A statement specifies an action to be performed. Except as indicated, statements are
- executed in sequence.
-3 A block allows a set of declarations and statements to be grouped into one syntactic unit.
- The initializers of objects that have automatic storage duration, and the variable length
- array declarators of ordinary identifiers with block scope, are evaluated and the values are
- stored in the objects (including storing an indeterminate value in objects without an
- initializer) each time the declaration is reached in the order of execution, as if it were a
- statement, and within each declaration in the order that declarators appear.
-4 A full expression is an expression that is not part of another expression or of a declarator.
- Each of the following is a full expression: an initializer that is not part of a compound
- literal; the expression in an expression statement; the controlling expression of a selection
- statement (if or switch); the controlling expression of a while or do statement; each
- of the (optional) expressions of a for statement; the (optional) expression in a return
- statement. There is a sequence point between the evaluation of a full expression and the
- evaluation of the next full expression to be evaluated.
- Forward references: expression and null statements (6.8.3), selection statements
- (6.8.4), iteration statements (6.8.5), the return statement (6.8.6.4).
- 6.8.1 Labeled statements
- Syntax
-1 labeled-statement:
- identifier : statement
- case constant-expression : statement
- default : statement
- Constraints
-2 A case or default label shall appear only in a switch statement. Further
- constraints on such labels are discussed under the switch statement.
-
-[page 145] (Contents)
-
-3 Label names shall be unique within a function.
- Semantics
-4 Any statement may be preceded by a prefix that declares an identifier as a label name.
- Labels in themselves do not alter the flow of control, which continues unimpeded across
- them.
- Forward references: the goto statement (6.8.6.1), the switch statement (6.8.4.2).
- 6.8.2 Compound statement
- Syntax
-1 compound-statement:
- { block-item-listopt }
- block-item-list:
- block-item
- block-item-list block-item
- block-item:
- declaration
- statement
- Semantics
-2 A compound statement is a block.
- 6.8.3 Expression and null statements
- Syntax
-1 expression-statement:
- expressionopt ;
- Semantics
-2 The expression in an expression statement is evaluated as a void expression for its side
- effects.153)
-3 A null statement (consisting of just a semicolon) performs no operations.
-4 EXAMPLE 1 If a function call is evaluated as an expression statement for its side effects only, the
- discarding of its value may be made explicit by converting the expression to a void expression by means of
- a cast:
- int p(int);
- /* ... */
- (void)p(0);
-
-
-
- 153) Such as assignments, and function calls which have side effects.
-
-[page 146] (Contents)
-
-5 EXAMPLE 2 In the program fragment
- char *s;
- /* ... */
- while (*s++ != '\0')
- ;
- a null statement is used to supply an empty loop body to the iteration statement.
-
-6 EXAMPLE 3 A null statement may also be used to carry a label just before the closing } of a compound
- statement.
- while (loop1) {
- /* ... */
- while (loop2) {
- /* ... */
- if (want_out)
- goto end_loop1;
- /* ... */
- }
- /* ... */
- end_loop1: ;
- }

- 6.8.4 Selection statements
- Syntax
-1 selection-statement:
- if ( expression ) statement
- if ( expression ) statement else statement
- switch ( expression ) statement
- Semantics
-2 A selection statement selects among a set of statements depending on the value of a
- controlling expression.
-3 A selection statement is a block whose scope is a strict subset of the scope of its
- enclosing block. Each associated substatement is also a block whose scope is a strict
- subset of the scope of the selection statement.
- 6.8.4.1 The if statement
- Constraints
-1 The controlling expression of an if statement shall have scalar type.
- Semantics
-2 In both forms, the first substatement is executed if the expression compares unequal to 0.
- In the else form, the second substatement is executed if the expression compares equal
-
-
-[page 147] (Contents)
-
- to 0. If the first substatement is reached via a label, the second substatement is not
- executed.
-3 An else is associated with the lexically nearest preceding if that is allowed by the
- syntax.
- 6.8.4.2 The switch statement
- Constraints
-1 The controlling expression of a switch statement shall have integer type.
-2 If a switch statement has an associated case or default label within the scope of an
- identifier with a variably modified type, the entire switch statement shall be within the
- scope of that identifier.154)
-3 The expression of each case label shall be an integer constant expression and no two of
- the case constant expressions in the same switch statement shall have the same value
- after conversion. There may be at most one default label in a switch statement.
- (Any enclosed switch statement may have a default label or case constant
- expressions with values that duplicate case constant expressions in the enclosing
- switch statement.)
- Semantics
-4 A switch statement causes control to jump to, into, or past the statement that is the
- switch body, depending on the value of a controlling expression, and on the presence of a
- default label and the values of any case labels on or in the switch body. A case or
- default label is accessible only within the closest enclosing switch statement.
-5 The integer promotions are performed on the controlling expression. The constant
- expression in each case label is converted to the promoted type of the controlling
- expression. If a converted value matches that of the promoted controlling expression,
- control jumps to the statement following the matched case label. Otherwise, if there is
- a default label, control jumps to the labeled statement. If no converted case constant
- expression matches and there is no default label, no part of the switch body is
- executed.
- Implementation limits
-6 As discussed in 5.2.4.1, the implementation may limit the number of case values in a
- switch statement.
-
-
-
-
- 154) That is, the declaration either precedes the switch statement, or it follows the last case or
- default label associated with the switch that is in the block containing the declaration.
-
-[page 148] (Contents)
-
-7 EXAMPLE In the artificial program fragment
- switch (expr)
- {
- int i = 4;
- f(i);
- case 0:
- i = 17;
- /* falls through into default code */
- default:
- printf("%d\n", i);
- }
- the object whose identifier is i exists with automatic storage duration (within the block) but is never
- initialized, and thus if the controlling expression has a nonzero value, the call to the printf function will
- access an indeterminate value. Similarly, the call to the function f cannot be reached.
-
- 6.8.5 Iteration statements
- Syntax
-1 iteration-statement:
- while ( expression ) statement
- do statement while ( expression ) ;
- for ( expressionopt ; expressionopt ; expressionopt ) statement
- for ( declaration expressionopt ; expressionopt ) statement
- Constraints
-2 The controlling expression of an iteration statement shall have scalar type.
-3 The declaration part of a for statement shall only declare identifiers for objects having
- storage class auto or register.
- Semantics
-4 An iteration statement causes a statement called the loop body to be executed repeatedly
- until the controlling expression compares equal to 0. The repetition occurs regardless of
- whether the loop body is entered from the iteration statement or by a jump.155)
-5 An iteration statement is a block whose scope is a strict subset of the scope of its
- enclosing block. The loop body is also a block whose scope is a strict subset of the scope
- of the iteration statement.
-6 An iteration statement whose controlling expression is not a constant expression,156) that
- performs no input/output operations, does not access volatile objects, and performs no
- synchronization or atomic operations in its body, controlling expression, or (in the case of
-
- 155) Code jumped over is not executed. In particular, the controlling expression of a for or while
- statement is not evaluated before entering the loop body, nor is clause-1 of a for statement.
- 156) An omitted controlling expression is replaced by a nonzero constant, which is a constant expression.
-
-[page 149] (Contents)
-
- a for statement) its expression-3, may be assumed by the implementation to
- terminate.157)
- 6.8.5.1 The while statement
-1 The evaluation of the controlling expression takes place before each execution of the loop
- body.
- 6.8.5.2 The do statement
-1 The evaluation of the controlling expression takes place after each execution of the loop
- body.
- 6.8.5.3 The for statement
-1 The statement
- for ( clause-1 ; expression-2 ; expression-3 ) statement
- behaves as follows: The expression expression-2 is the controlling expression that is
- evaluated before each execution of the loop body. The expression expression-3 is
- evaluated as a void expression after each execution of the loop body. If clause-1 is a
- declaration, the scope of any identifiers it declares is the remainder of the declaration and
- the entire loop, including the other two expressions; it is reached in the order of execution
- before the first evaluation of the controlling expression. If clause-1 is an expression, it is
- evaluated as a void expression before the first evaluation of the controlling expression.158)
-2 Both clause-1 and expression-3 can be omitted. An omitted expression-2 is replaced by a
- nonzero constant.
- 6.8.6 Jump statements
- Syntax
-1 jump-statement:
- goto identifier ;
- continue ;
- break ;
- return expressionopt ;
-
-
-
-
- 157) This is intended to allow compiler transformations such as removal of empty loops even when
- termination cannot be proven.
- 158) Thus, clause-1 specifies initialization for the loop, possibly declaring one or more variables for use in
- the loop; the controlling expression, expression-2, specifies an evaluation made before each iteration,
- such that execution of the loop continues until the expression compares equal to 0; and expression-3
- specifies an operation (such as incrementing) that is performed after each iteration.
-
-[page 150] (Contents)
-
- Semantics
-2 A jump statement causes an unconditional jump to another place.
- 6.8.6.1 The goto statement
- Constraints
-1 The identifier in a goto statement shall name a label located somewhere in the enclosing
- function. A goto statement shall not jump from outside the scope of an identifier having
- a variably modified type to inside the scope of that identifier.
- Semantics
-2 A goto statement causes an unconditional jump to the statement prefixed by the named
- label in the enclosing function.
-3 EXAMPLE 1 It is sometimes convenient to jump into the middle of a complicated set of statements. The
- following outline presents one possible approach to a problem based on these three assumptions:
- 1. The general initialization code accesses objects only visible to the current function.
- 2. The general initialization code is too large to warrant duplication.
- 3. The code to determine the next operation is at the head of the loop. (To allow it to be reached by
- continue statements, for example.)
+ fesetround(FE_UPWARD);
/* ... */
- goto first_time;
- for (;;) {
- // determine next operation
- /* ... */
- if (need to reinitialize) {
- // reinitialize-only code

- first_time:
- // general initialization code
- /* ... */
- continue;
- }
- // handle other operations
- /* ... */
- }
-
-
-
-
-[page 151] (Contents)
-
-4 EXAMPLE 2 A goto statement is not allowed to jump past any declarations of objects with variably
- modified types. A jump within the scope, however, is permitted.
- goto lab3; // invalid: going INTO scope of VLA.
- {
- double a[n];
- a[j] = 4.4;
- lab3:
- a[j] = 3.3;
- goto lab4; // valid: going WITHIN scope of VLA.
- a[j] = 5.5;
- lab4:
- a[j] = 6.6;
- }
- goto lab4; // invalid: going INTO scope of VLA.
-
- 6.8.6.2 The continue statement
- Constraints
-1 A continue statement shall appear only in or as a loop body.
- Semantics
-2 A continue statement causes a jump to the loop-continuation portion of the smallest
- enclosing iteration statement; that is, to the end of the loop body. More precisely, in each
- of the statements
- while (/* ... */) { do { for (/* ... */) {
- /* ... */ /* ... */ /* ... */
- continue; continue; continue;
- /* ... */ /* ... */ /* ... */
- contin: ; contin: ; contin: ;
- } } while (/* ... */); }
- unless the continue statement shown is in an enclosed iteration statement (in which
- case it is interpreted within that statement), it is equivalent to goto contin;.159)
- 6.8.6.3 The break statement
- Constraints
-1 A break statement shall appear only in or as a switch body or loop body.
- Semantics
-2 A break statement terminates execution of the smallest enclosing switch or iteration
- statement.
-
-
-
- 159) Following the contin: label is a null statement.
-
-[page 152] (Contents)
-
- 6.8.6.4 The return statement
- Constraints
-1 A return statement with an expression shall not appear in a function whose return type
- is void. A return statement without an expression shall only appear in a function
- whose return type is void.
- Semantics
-2 A return statement terminates execution of the current function and returns control to
- its caller. A function may have any number of return statements.
-3 If a return statement with an expression is executed, the value of the expression is
- returned to the caller as the value of the function call expression. If the expression has a
- type different from the return type of the function in which it appears, the value is
- converted as if by assignment to an object having the return type of the function.160)

4) This implies that a conforming implementation reserves no identifiers other than those explicitly + reserved in this International Standard. + +
5) Strictly conforming programs are intended to be maximally portable among conforming + implementations. Conforming programs may depend upon nonportable features of a conforming + implementation. + + +
Contents +
+ An implementation translates C source files and executes C programs in two data- + processing-system environments, which will be called the translation environment and + the execution environment in this International Standard. Their characteristics define and + constrain the results of executing conforming C programs constructed according to the + syntactic and semantic rules for conforming implementations. +
Forward references: In this clause, only a few of many possible forward references + have been noted. + +
Contents +
Contents +
Contents +
+ A C program need not all be translated at the same time. The text of the program is kept + in units called source files, (or preprocessing files) in this International Standard. A + source file together with all the headers and source files included via the preprocessing + directive #include is known as a preprocessing translation unit. After preprocessing, a + preprocessing translation unit is called a translation unit. Previously translated translation + units may be preserved individually or in libraries. The separate translation units of a + program communicate by (for example) calls to functions whose identifiers have external + linkage, manipulation of objects whose identifiers have external linkage, or manipulation + of data files. Translation units may be separately translated and then later linked to + produce an executable program. +

6) Implementations shall behave as if these separate phases occur, even though many are typically folded + together in practice. Source files, translation units, and translated translation units need not + necessarily be stored as files, nor need there be any one-to-one correspondence between these entities + and any external representation. The description is conceptual only, and does not specify any + particular implementation. + +
7) As described in 6.4, the process of dividing a source file's characters into preprocessing tokens is + context-dependent. For example, see the handling of < within a #include preprocessing directive. + +
8) An implementation need not convert all non-corresponding source characters to the same execution + character. + + +
Contents +
+ A conforming implementation shall produce at least one diagnostic message (identified in + an implementation-defined manner) if a preprocessing translation unit or translation unit + contains a violation of any syntax rule or constraint, even if the behavior is also explicitly + specified as undefined or implementation-defined. Diagnostic messages need not be + produced in other circumstances.9) +
+ EXAMPLE An implementation shall issue a diagnostic for the translation unit: +
+ char i; + int i; ++ because in those cases where wording in this International Standard describes the behavior for a construct + as being both a constraint error and resulting in undefined behavior, the constraint error shall be diagnosed. + + +
Footnotes +
9) The intent is that an implementation should identify the nature of, and where possible localize, each + violation. Of course, an implementation is free to produce any number of diagnostics as long as a + valid program is still correctly translated. It may also successfully translate an invalid program. + + +
Contents +
+ Two execution environments are defined: freestanding and hosted. In both cases, + program startup occurs when a designated C function is called by the execution + environment. All objects with static storage duration shall be initialized (set to their + initial values) before program startup. The manner and timing of such initialization are + otherwise unspecified. Program termination returns control to the execution + environment. +
Forward references: storage durations of objects (6.2.4), initialization (6.7.9). + +
Contents +
+ In a freestanding environment (in which C program execution may take place without any + benefit of an operating system), the name and type of the function called at program + startup are implementation-defined. Any library facilities available to a freestanding + program, other than the minimal set required by clause 4, are implementation-defined. +
+ The effect of program termination in a freestanding environment is implementation- + defined. + +
Contents +
+ A hosted environment need not be provided, but shall conform to the following + specifications if present. + + + + + + +
Contents +
+ The function called at program startup is named main. The implementation declares no + prototype for this function. It shall be defined with a return type of int and with no + parameters: +
+ int main(void) { /* ... */ } ++ or with two parameters (referred to here as argc and argv, though any names may be + used, as they are local to the function in which they are declared): +
+ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { /* ... */ } ++ or equivalent;10) or in some other implementation-defined manner. +
+ If they are declared, the parameters to the main function shall obey the following + constraints: +
Footnotes +
10) Thus, int can be replaced by a typedef name defined as int, or the type of argv can be written as + char ** argv, and so on. + + +
Contents +
+ In a hosted environment, a program may use all the functions, macros, type definitions, + and objects described in the library clause (clause 7). + + + + + + +
Contents +
+ If the return type of the main function is a type compatible with int, a return from the + initial call to the main function is equivalent to calling the exit function with the value + returned by the main function as its argument;11) reaching the } that terminates the + main function returns a value of 0. If the return type is not compatible with int, the + termination status returned to the host environment is unspecified. +

11) In accordance with 6.2.4, the lifetimes of objects with automatic storage duration declared in main + will have ended in the former case, even where they would not have in the latter. + + +
Contents +
+ The semantic descriptions in this International Standard describe the behavior of an + abstract machine in which issues of optimization are irrelevant. +
+ Accessing a volatile object, modifying an object, modifying a file, or calling a function + that does any of those operations are all side effects,12) which are changes in the state of + the execution environment. Evaluation of an expression in general includes both value + computations and initiation of side effects. Value computation for an lvalue expression + includes determining the identity of the designated object. +
+ Sequenced before is an asymmetric, transitive, pair-wise relation between evaluations + executed by a single thread, which induces a partial order among those evaluations. + Given any two evaluations A and B, if A is sequenced before B, then the execution of A + shall precede the execution of B. (Conversely, if A is sequenced before B, then B is + sequenced after A.) If A is not sequenced before or after B, then A and B are + unsequenced. Evaluations A and B are indeterminately sequenced when A is sequenced + either before or after B, but it is unspecified which.13) The presence of a sequence point + between the evaluation of expressions A and B implies that every value computation and + side effect associated with A is sequenced before every value computation and side effect + associated with B. (A summary of the sequence points is given in annex C.) +
+ In the abstract machine, all expressions are evaluated as specified by the semantics. An + actual implementation need not evaluate part of an expression if it can deduce that its + value is not used and that no needed side effects are produced (including any caused by + + + calling a function or accessing a volatile object). +
+ When the processing of the abstract machine is interrupted by receipt of a signal, the + values of objects that are neither lock-free atomic objects nor of type volatile + sig_atomic_t are unspecified, and the value of any object that is modified by the + handler that is neither a lock-free atomic object nor of type volatile + sig_atomic_t becomes undefined. +
+ The least requirements on a conforming implementation are: +
+ What constitutes an interactive device is implementation-defined. +
+ More stringent correspondences between abstract and actual semantics may be defined by + each implementation. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 An implementation might define a one-to-one correspondence between abstract and actual + semantics: at every sequence point, the values of the actual objects would agree with those specified by the + abstract semantics. The keyword volatile would then be redundant. +
+ Alternatively, an implementation might perform various optimizations within each translation unit, such + that the actual semantics would agree with the abstract semantics only when making function calls across + translation unit boundaries. In such an implementation, at the time of each function entry and function + return where the calling function and the called function are in different translation units, the values of all + externally linked objects and of all objects accessible via pointers therein would agree with the abstract + semantics. Furthermore, at the time of each such function entry the values of the parameters of the called + function and of all objects accessible via pointers therein would agree with the abstract semantics. In this + type of implementation, objects referred to by interrupt service routines activated by the signal function + would require explicit specification of volatile storage, as well as other implementation-defined + restrictions. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 In executing the fragment +
+ char c1, c2; + /* ... */ + c1 = c1 + c2; ++ the ''integer promotions'' require that the abstract machine promote the value of each variable to int size + and then add the two ints and truncate the sum. Provided the addition of two chars can be done without + overflow, or with overflow wrapping silently to produce the correct result, the actual execution need only + produce the same result, possibly omitting the promotions. + +
+ EXAMPLE 3 Similarly, in the fragment +
+ float f1, f2; + double d; + /* ... */ + f1 = f2 * d; ++ the multiplication may be executed using single-precision arithmetic if the implementation can ascertain + that the result would be the same as if it were executed using double-precision arithmetic (for example, if d + were replaced by the constant 2.0, which has type double). + +
+ EXAMPLE 4 Implementations employing wide registers have to take care to honor appropriate + semantics. Values are independent of whether they are represented in a register or in memory. For + example, an implicit spilling of a register is not permitted to alter the value. Also, an explicit store and load + is required to round to the precision of the storage type. In particular, casts and assignments are required to + perform their specified conversion. For the fragment +
+ double d1, d2; + float f; + d1 = f = expression; + d2 = (float) expression; ++ the values assigned to d1 and d2 are required to have been converted to float. + +
+ EXAMPLE 5 Rearrangement for floating-point expressions is often restricted because of limitations in + precision as well as range. The implementation cannot generally apply the mathematical associative rules + for addition or multiplication, nor the distributive rule, because of roundoff error, even in the absence of + overflow and underflow. Likewise, implementations cannot generally replace decimal constants in order to + rearrange expressions. In the following fragment, rearrangements suggested by mathematical rules for real + numbers are often not valid (see F.9). +
+ double x, y, z; + /* ... */ + x = (x * y) * z; // not equivalent to x *= y * z; + z = (x - y) + y ; // not equivalent to z = x; + z = x + x * y; // not equivalent to z = x * (1.0 + y); + y = x / 5.0; // not equivalent to y = x * 0.2; ++ +
+ EXAMPLE 6 To illustrate the grouping behavior of expressions, in the following fragment +
+ int a, b; + /* ... */ + a = a + 32760 + b + 5; ++ the expression statement behaves exactly the same as +
+ a = (((a + 32760) + b) + 5); ++ due to the associativity and precedence of these operators. Thus, the result of the sum (a + 32760) is + next added to b, and that result is then added to 5 which results in the value assigned to a. On a machine in + which overflows produce an explicit trap and in which the range of values representable by an int is + [-32768, +32767], the implementation cannot rewrite this expression as +
+ a = ((a + b) + 32765); ++ since if the values for a and b were, respectively, -32754 and -15, the sum a + b would produce a trap + while the original expression would not; nor can the expression be rewritten either as + +
+ a = ((a + 32765) + b); ++ or +
+ a = (a + (b + 32765)); ++ since the values for a and b might have been, respectively, 4 and -8 or -17 and 12. However, on a machine + in which overflow silently generates some value and where positive and negative overflows cancel, the + above expression statement can be rewritten by the implementation in any of the above ways because the + same result will occur. + +
+ EXAMPLE 7 The grouping of an expression does not completely determine its evaluation. In the + following fragment +
+ #include <stdio.h> + int sum; + char *p; + /* ... */ + sum = sum * 10 - '0' + (*p++ = getchar()); ++ the expression statement is grouped as if it were written as +
+ sum = (((sum * 10) - '0') + ((*(p++)) = (getchar()))); ++ but the actual increment of p can occur at any time between the previous sequence point and the next + sequence point (the ;), and the call to getchar can occur at any point prior to the need of its returned + value. + +

12) The IEC 60559 standard for binary floating-point arithmetic requires certain user-accessible status + flags and control modes. Floating-point operations implicitly set the status flags; modes affect result + values of floating-point operations. Implementations that support such floating-point state are + required to regard changes to it as side effects -- see annex F for details. The floating-point + environment library <fenv.h> provides a programming facility for indicating when these side + effects matter, freeing the implementations in other cases. + +
13) The executions of unsequenced evaluations can interleave. Indeterminately sequenced evaluations + cannot interleave, but can be executed in any order. + + +
Contents +
+ Under a hosted implementation, a program can have more than one thread of execution + (or thread) running concurrently. The execution of each thread proceeds as defined by + the remainder of this standard. The execution of the entire program consists of an + execution of all of its threads.14) Under a freestanding implementation, it is + implementation-defined whether a program can have more than one thread of execution. +
+ The value of an object visible to a thread T at a particular point is the initial value of the + object, a value stored in the object by T , or a value stored in the object by another thread, + according to the rules below. +
+ NOTE 1 In some cases, there may instead be undefined behavior. Much of this section is motivated by + the desire to support atomic operations with explicit and detailed visibility constraints. However, it also + implicitly supports a simpler view for more restricted programs. + +
+ Two expression evaluations conflict if one of them modifies a memory location and the + other one reads or modifies the same memory location. + + + + + +
+ The library defines a number of atomic operations (7.17) and operations on mutexes + (7.25.4) that are specially identified as synchronization operations. These operations play + a special role in making assignments in one thread visible to another. A synchronization + operation on one or more memory locations is either an acquire operation, a release + operation, both an acquire and release operation, or a consume operation. A + synchronization operation without an associated memory location is a fence and can be + either an acquire fence, a release fence, or both an acquire and release fence. In addition, + there are relaxed atomic operations, which are not synchronization operations, and + atomic read-modify-write operations, which have special characteristics. +
+ NOTE 2 For example, a call that acquires a mutex will perform an acquire operation on the locations + composing the mutex. Correspondingly, a call that releases the same mutex will perform a release + operation on those same locations. Informally, performing a release operation on A forces prior side effects + on other memory locations to become visible to other threads that later perform an acquire or consume + operation on A. We do not include relaxed atomic operations as synchronization operations although, like + synchronization operations, they cannot contribute to data races. + +
+ All modifications to a particular atomic object M occur in some particular total order, + called the modification order of M. If A and B are modifications of an atomic object M, + and A happens before B, then A shall precede B in the modification order of M, which is + defined below. +
+ NOTE 3 This states that the modification orders must respect the ''happens before'' relation. + +
+ NOTE 4 There is a separate order for each atomic object. There is no requirement that these can be + combined into a single total order for all objects. In general this will be impossible since different threads + may observe modifications to different variables in inconsistent orders. + +
+ A release sequence on an atomic object M is a maximal contiguous sub-sequence of side + effects in the modification order of M, where the first operation is a release and every + subsequent operation either is performed by the same thread that performed the release or + is an atomic read-modify-write operation. +
+ Certain library calls synchronize with other library calls performed by another thread. In + particular, an atomic operation A that performs a release operation on an object M + synchronizes with an atomic operation B that performs an acquire operation on M and + reads a value written by any side effect in the release sequence headed by A. +
+ NOTE 5 Except in the specified cases, reading a later value does not necessarily ensure visibility as + described below. Such a requirement would sometimes interfere with efficient implementation. + +
+ NOTE 6 The specifications of the synchronization operations define when one reads the value written by + another. For atomic variables, the definition is clear. All operations on a given mutex occur in a single total + order. Each mutex acquisition ''reads the value written'' by the last mutex release. + +
+ An evaluation A carries a dependency 15) to an evaluation B if: + + + +
+ An evaluation A is dependency-ordered before16) an evaluation B if: +
+ An evaluation A inter-thread happens before an evaluation B if A synchronizes with B, A + is dependency-ordered before B, or, for some evaluation X: +
+ NOTE 7 The ''inter-thread happens before'' relation describes arbitrary concatenations of ''sequenced + before'', ''synchronizes with'', and ''dependency-ordered before'' relationships, with two exceptions. The + first exception is that a concatenation is not permitted to end with ''dependency-ordered before'' followed + by ''sequenced before''. The reason for this limitation is that a consume operation participating in a + ''dependency-ordered before'' relationship provides ordering only with respect to operations to which this + consume operation actually carries a dependency. The reason that this limitation applies only to the end of + such a concatenation is that any subsequent release operation will provide the required ordering for a prior + consume operation. The second exception is that a concatenation is not permitted to consist entirely of + ''sequenced before''. The reasons for this limitation are (1) to permit ''inter-thread happens before'' to be + transitively closed and (2) the ''happens before'' relation, defined below, provides for relationships + consisting entirely of ''sequenced before''. + +
+ An evaluation A happens before an evaluation B if A is sequenced before B or A inter- + thread happens before B. + + + + +
+ A visible side effect A on an object M with respect to a value computation B of M + satisfies the conditions: +
+ NOTE 8 If there is ambiguity about which side effect to a non-atomic object is visible, then there is a data + race and the behavior is undefined. + +
+ NOTE 9 This states that operations on ordinary variables are not visibly reordered. This is not actually + detectable without data races, but it is necessary to ensure that data races, as defined here, and with suitable + restrictions on the use of atomics, correspond to data races in a simple interleaved (sequentially consistent) + execution. + +
+ The visible sequence of side effects on an atomic object M, with respect to a value + computation B of M, is a maximal contiguous sub-sequence of side effects in the + modification order of M, where the first side effect is visible with respect to B, and for + every subsequent side effect, it is not the case that B happens before it. The value of an + atomic object M, as determined by evaluation B, shall be the value stored by some + operation in the visible sequence of M with respect to B. Furthermore, if a value + computation A of an atomic object M happens before a value computation B of M, and + the value computed by A corresponds to the value stored by side effect X, then the value + computed by B shall either equal the value computed by A, or be the value stored by side + effect Y , where Y follows X in the modification order of M. +
+ NOTE 10 This effectively disallows compiler reordering of atomic operations to a single object, even if + both operations are ''relaxed'' loads. By doing so, we effectively make the ''cache coherence'' guarantee + provided by most hardware available to C atomic operations. + +
+ NOTE 11 The visible sequence depends on the ''happens before'' relation, which in turn depends on the + values observed by loads of atomics, which we are restricting here. The intended reading is that there must + exist an association of atomic loads with modifications they observe that, together with suitably chosen + modification orders and the ''happens before'' relation derived as described above, satisfy the resulting + constraints as imposed here. + +
+ The execution of a program contains a data race if it contains two conflicting actions in + different threads, at least one of which is not atomic, and neither happens before the + other. Any such data race results in undefined behavior. +
+ NOTE 12 It can be shown that programs that correctly use simple mutexes and + memory_order_seq_cst operations to prevent all data races, and use no other synchronization + operations, behave as though the operations executed by their constituent threads were simply interleaved, + with each value computation of an object being the last value stored in that interleaving. This is normally + referred to as ''sequential consistency''. However, this applies only to data-race-free programs, and data- + race-free programs cannot observe most program transformations that do not change single-threaded + program semantics. In fact, most single-threaded program transformations continue to be allowed, since + any program that behaves differently as a result must contain undefined behavior. + +
+ NOTE 13 Compiler transformations that introduce assignments to a potentially shared memory location + that would not be modified by the abstract machine are generally precluded by this standard, since such an + assignment might overwrite another assignment by a different thread in cases in which an abstract machine + execution would not have encountered a data race. This includes implementations of data member + assignment that overwrite adjacent members in separate memory locations. We also generally preclude + reordering of atomic loads in cases in which the atomics in question may alias, since this may violate the + "visible sequence" rules. + +
+ NOTE 14 Transformations that introduce a speculative read of a potentially shared memory location may + not preserve the semantics of the program as defined in this standard, since they potentially introduce a data + race. However, they are typically valid in the context of an optimizing compiler that targets a specific + machine with well-defined semantics for data races. They would be invalid for a hypothetical machine that + is not tolerant of races or provides hardware race detection. + + +

14) The execution can usually be viewed as an interleaving of all of the threads. However, some kinds of + atomic operations, for example, allow executions inconsistent with a simple interleaving as described + below. + +
15) The ''carries a dependency'' relation is a subset of the ''sequenced before'' relation, and is similarly + strictly intra-thread. + +
16) The ''dependency-ordered before'' relation is analogous to the ''synchronizes with'' relation, but uses + release/consume in place of release/acquire. + + +

+ Two sets of characters and their associated collating sequences shall be defined: the set in + which source files are written (the source character set), and the set interpreted in the + execution environment (the execution character set). Each set is further divided into a + basic character set, whose contents are given by this subclause, and a set of zero or more + locale-specific members (which are not members of the basic character set) called + extended characters. The combined set is also called the extended character set. The + values of the members of the execution character set are implementation-defined. +
+ In a character constant or string literal, members of the execution character set shall be + represented by corresponding members of the source character set or by escape + sequences consisting of the backslash \ followed by one or more characters.

In both the source and execution basic character sets, the + value of each character after 0 in the above list of decimal digits shall be one greater than + the value of the previous. In source files, there shall be some way of indicating the end of + each line of text; this International Standard treats such an end-of-line indicator as if it + were a single new-line character. In the basic execution character set, there shall be + control characters representing alert, backspace, carriage return, and new line. If any + other characters are encountered in a source file (except in an identifier, a character + constant, a string literal, a header name, a comment, or a preprocessing token that is never + + converted to a token), the behavior is undefined. +

+ The characteristics of floating types are defined in terms of a model that describes a + representation of floating-point numbers and values that provide information about an + implementation's floating-point arithmetic.21) The following parameters are used to + define the model for each floating-point type: +
+ s sign ((+-)1) + b base or radix of exponent representation (an integer > 1) + e exponent (an integer between a minimum emin and a maximum emax ) + p precision (the number of base-b digits in the significand) + fk nonnegative integers less than b (the significand digits) ++
+ A floating-point number (x) is defined by the following model: +
+ p + x = sb e (Sum) f k b-k , + k=1 + emin <= e <= emax ++ +
+ In addition to normalized floating-point numbers ( f 1 > 0 if x != 0), floating types may be + able to contain other kinds of floating-point numbers, such as subnormal floating-point + numbers (x != 0, e = emin , f 1 = 0) and unnormalized floating-point numbers (x != 0, + e > emin , f 1 = 0), and values that are not floating-point numbers, such as infinities and + NaNs. A NaN is an encoding signifying Not-a-Number. A quiet NaN propagates + through almost every arithmetic operation without raising a floating-point exception; a + signaling NaN generally raises a floating-point exception when occurring as an + + + + arithmetic operand.22) +
+ An implementation may give zero and values that are not floating-point numbers (such as + infinities and NaNs) a sign or may leave them unsigned. Wherever such values are + unsigned, any requirement in this International Standard to retrieve the sign shall produce + an unspecified sign, and any requirement to set the sign shall be ignored. +
+ The minimum range of representable values for a floating type is the most negative finite + floating-point number representable in that type through the most positive finite floating- + point number representable in that type. In addition, if negative infinity is representable + in a type, the range of that type is extended to all negative real numbers; likewise, if + positive infinity is representable in a type, the range of that type is extended to all positive + real numbers. +
+ The accuracy of the floating-point operations (+, -, *, /) and of the library functions in + <math.h> and <complex.h> that return floating-point results is implementation- + defined, as is the accuracy of the conversion between floating-point internal + representations and string representations performed by the library functions in + <stdio.h>, <stdlib.h>, and <wchar.h>. The implementation may state that the + accuracy is unknown. +
+ All integer values in the <float.h> header, except FLT_ROUNDS, shall be constant + expressions suitable for use in #if preprocessing directives; all floating values shall be + constant expressions. All except DECIMAL_DIG, FLT_EVAL_METHOD, FLT_RADIX, + and FLT_ROUNDS have separate names for all three floating-point types. The floating- + point model representation is provided for all values except FLT_EVAL_METHOD and + FLT_ROUNDS. +
+ The rounding mode for floating-point addition is characterized by the implementation- + defined value of FLT_ROUNDS:23) +
+ -1 indeterminable + 0 toward zero + 1 to nearest + 2 toward positive infinity + 3 toward negative infinity ++ All other values for FLT_ROUNDS characterize implementation-defined rounding + behavior. + + + +
+ Except for assignment and cast (which remove all extra range and precision), the values + yielded by operators with floating operands and values subject to the usual arithmetic + conversions and of floating constants are evaluated to a format whose range and precision + may be greater than required by the type. The use of evaluation formats is characterized + by the implementation-defined value of FLT_EVAL_METHOD:24) +
+ -1 indeterminable; + 0 evaluate all operations and constants just to the range and precision of the + type; + 1 evaluate operations and constants of type float and double to the + range and precision of the double type, evaluate long double + operations and constants to the range and precision of the long double + type; + 2 evaluate all operations and constants to the range and precision of the + long double type. ++ All other negative values for FLT_EVAL_METHOD characterize implementation-defined + behavior. +

Contents +
Contents +
+ An identifier can denote an object; a function; a tag or a member of a structure, union, or + enumeration; a typedef name; a label name; a macro name; or a macro parameter. The + same identifier can denote different entities at different points in the program. A member + of an enumeration is called an enumeration constant. Macro names and macro + parameters are not considered further here, because prior to the semantic phase of + program translation any occurrences of macro names in the source file are replaced by the + preprocessing token sequences that constitute their macro definitions. +
+ For each different entity that an identifier designates, the identifier is visible (i.e., can be + used) only within a region of program text called its scope. Different entities designated + by the same identifier either have different scopes, or are in different name spaces. There + are four kinds of scopes: function, file, block, and function prototype. (A function + prototype is a declaration of a function that declares the types of its parameters.) +
+ A label name is the only kind of identifier that has function scope. It can be used (in a + goto statement) anywhere in the function in which it appears, and is declared implicitly + by its syntactic appearance (followed by a : and a statement). +
+ Every other identifier has scope determined by the placement of its declaration (in a + declarator or type specifier). If the declarator or type specifier that declares the identifier + appears outside of any block or list of parameters, the identifier has file scope, which + terminates at the end of the translation unit. If the declarator or type specifier that + declares the identifier appears inside a block or within the list of parameter declarations in + a function definition, the identifier has block scope, which terminates at the end of the + associated block. If the declarator or type specifier that declares the identifier appears + + within the list of parameter declarations in a function prototype (not part of a function + definition), the identifier has function prototype scope, which terminates at the end of the + function declarator. If an identifier designates two different entities in the same name + space, the scopes might overlap. If so, the scope of one entity (the inner scope) will end + strictly before the scope of the other entity (the outer scope). Within the inner scope, the + identifier designates the entity declared in the inner scope; the entity declared in the outer + scope is hidden (and not visible) within the inner scope. +
+ Unless explicitly stated otherwise, where this International Standard uses the term + ''identifier'' to refer to some entity (as opposed to the syntactic construct), it refers to the + entity in the relevant name space whose declaration is visible at the point the identifier + occurs. +
+ Two identifiers have the same scope if and only if their scopes terminate at the same + point. +
+ Structure, union, and enumeration tags have scope that begins just after the appearance of + the tag in a type specifier that declares the tag. Each enumeration constant has scope that + begins just after the appearance of its defining enumerator in an enumerator list. Any + other identifier has scope that begins just after the completion of its declarator. +
+ As a special case, a type name (which is not a declaration of an identifier) is considered to + have a scope that begins just after the place within the type name where the omitted + identifier would appear were it not omitted. +

+ An identifier declared in different scopes or in the same scope more than once can be + made to refer to the same object or function by a process called linkage.29) There are + three kinds of linkage: external, internal, and none. +
+ In the set of translation units and libraries that constitutes an entire program, each + declaration of a particular identifier with external linkage denotes the same object or + function. Within one translation unit, each declaration of an identifier with internal + linkage denotes the same object or function. Each declaration of an identifier with no + linkage denotes a unique entity. +
+ If the declaration of a file scope identifier for an object or a function contains the storage- + class specifier static, the identifier has internal linkage.30) + + + + +
+ For an identifier declared with the storage-class specifier extern in a scope in which a + prior declaration of that identifier is visible,31) if the prior declaration specifies internal or + external linkage, the linkage of the identifier at the later declaration is the same as the + linkage specified at the prior declaration. If no prior declaration is visible, or if the prior + declaration specifies no linkage, then the identifier has external linkage. +
+ If the declaration of an identifier for a function has no storage-class specifier, its linkage + is determined exactly as if it were declared with the storage-class specifier extern. If + the declaration of an identifier for an object has file scope and no storage-class specifier, + its linkage is external. +
+ The following identifiers have no linkage: an identifier declared to be anything other than + an object or a function; an identifier declared to be a function parameter; a block scope + identifier for an object declared without the storage-class specifier extern. +
+ If, within a translation unit, the same identifier appears with both internal and external + linkage, the behavior is undefined. +

+ If more than one declaration of a particular identifier is visible at any point in a + translation unit, the syntactic context disambiguates uses that refer to different entities. + Thus, there are separate name spaces for various categories of identifiers, as follows: +

+ An object has a storage duration that determines its lifetime. There are four storage + durations: static, thread, automatic, and allocated. Allocated storage is described in + 7.22.3. +
+ The lifetime of an object is the portion of program execution during which storage is + guaranteed to be reserved for it. An object exists, has a constant address,33) and retains + its last-stored value throughout its lifetime.34) If an object is referred to outside of its + lifetime, the behavior is undefined. The value of a pointer becomes indeterminate when + the object it points to (or just past) reaches the end of its lifetime. +
+ An object whose identifier is declared without the storage-class specifier + _Thread_local, and either with external or internal linkage or with the storage-class + specifier static, has static storage duration. Its lifetime is the entire execution of the + program and its stored value is initialized only once, prior to program startup. +
+ An object whose identifier is declared with the storage-class specifier _Thread_local + has thread storage duration. Its lifetime is the entire execution of the thread for which it + is created, and its stored value is initialized when the thread is started. There is a distinct + object per thread, and use of the declared name in an expression refers to the object + associated with the thread evaluating the expression. The result of attempting to + indirectly access an object with thread storage duration from a thread other than the one + with which the object is associated is implementation-defined. +
+ An object whose identifier is declared with no linkage and without the storage-class + specifier static has automatic storage duration, as do some compound literals. The + result of attempting to indirectly access an object with automatic storage duration from a + thread other than the one with which the object is associated is implementation-defined. +
+ For such an object that does not have a variable length array type, its lifetime extends + from entry into the block with which it is associated until execution of that block ends in + any way. (Entering an enclosed block or calling a function suspends, but does not end, + execution of the current block.) If the block is entered recursively, a new instance of the + object is created each time. The initial value of the object is indeterminate. If an + initialization is specified for the object, it is performed each time the declaration or + compound literal is reached in the execution of the block; otherwise, the value becomes + indeterminate each time the declaration is reached. + + + + +
+ For such an object that does have a variable length array type, its lifetime extends from + the declaration of the object until execution of the program leaves the scope of the + declaration.35) If the scope is entered recursively, a new instance of the object is created + each time. The initial value of the object is indeterminate. +
+ A non-lvalue expression with structure or union type, where the structure or union + contains a member with array type (including, recursively, members of all contained + structures and unions) refers to an object with automatic storage duration and temporary + lifetime.36) Its lifetime begins when the expression is evaluated and its initial value is the + value of the expression. Its lifetime ends when the evaluation of the containing full + expression or full declarator ends. Any attempt to modify an object with temporary + lifetime results in undefined behavior. +

33) The term ''constant address'' means that two pointers to the object constructed at possibly different + times will compare equal. The address may be different during two different executions of the same + program. + +
34) In the case of a volatile object, the last store need not be explicit in the program. + +
35) Leaving the innermost block containing the declaration, or jumping to a point in that block or an + embedded block prior to the declaration, leaves the scope of the declaration. + +

Contents +
+ The meaning of a value stored in an object or returned by a function is determined by the + type of the expression used to access it. (An identifier declared to be an object is the + simplest such expression; the type is specified in the declaration of the identifier.) Types + are partitioned into object types (types that describe objects) and function types (types + that describe functions). At various points within a translation unit an object type may be + incomplete (lacking sufficient information to determine the size of objects of that type) or + complete (having sufficient information).37) +
+ An object declared as type _Bool is large enough to store the values 0 and 1. +
+ An object declared as type char is large enough to store any member of the basic + execution character set. If a member of the basic execution character set is stored in a + char object, its value is guaranteed to be nonnegative. If any other character is stored in + a char object, the resulting value is implementation-defined but shall be within the range + of values that can be represented in that type. +
+ There are five standard signed integer types, designated as signed char, short + int, int, long int, and long long int. (These and other types may be + designated in several additional ways, as described in 6.7.2.) There may also be + implementation-defined extended signed integer types.38) The standard and extended + signed integer types are collectively called signed integer types.39) + + +
+ An object declared as type signed char occupies the same amount of storage as a + ''plain'' char object. A ''plain'' int object has the natural size suggested by the + architecture of the execution environment (large enough to contain any value in the range + INT_MIN to INT_MAX as defined in the header <limits.h>). +
+ For each of the signed integer types, there is a corresponding (but different) unsigned + integer type (designated with the keyword unsigned) that uses the same amount of + storage (including sign information) and has the same alignment requirements. The type + _Bool and the unsigned integer types that correspond to the standard signed integer + types are the standard unsigned integer types. The unsigned integer types that + correspond to the extended signed integer types are the extended unsigned integer types. + The standard and extended unsigned integer types are collectively called unsigned integer + types.40) +
+ The standard signed integer types and standard unsigned integer types are collectively + called the standard integer types, the extended signed integer types and extended + unsigned integer types are collectively called the extended integer types. +
+ For any two integer types with the same signedness and different integer conversion rank + (see 6.3.1.1), the range of values of the type with smaller integer conversion rank is a + subrange of the values of the other type. +
+ The range of nonnegative values of a signed integer type is a subrange of the + corresponding unsigned integer type, and the representation of the same value in each + type is the same.41) A computation involving unsigned operands can never overflow, + because a result that cannot be represented by the resulting unsigned integer type is + reduced modulo the number that is one greater than the largest value that can be + represented by the resulting type. +
+ There are three real floating types, designated as float, double, and long + double.42) The set of values of the type float is a subset of the set of values of the + type double; the set of values of the type double is a subset of the set of values of the + type long double. + + + +
+ There are three complex types, designated as float _Complex, double + _Complex, and long double _Complex.43) (Complex types are a conditional + feature that implementations need not support; see 6.10.8.3.) The real floating and + complex types are collectively called the floating types. +
+ For each floating type there is a corresponding real type, which is always a real floating + type. For real floating types, it is the same type. For complex types, it is the type given + by deleting the keyword _Complex from the type name. +
+ Each complex type has the same representation and alignment requirements as an array + type containing exactly two elements of the corresponding real type; the first element is + equal to the real part, and the second element to the imaginary part, of the complex + number. +
+ The type char, the signed and unsigned integer types, and the floating types are + collectively called the basic types. The basic types are complete object types. Even if the + implementation defines two or more basic types to have the same representation, they are + nevertheless different types.44) +
+ The three types char, signed char, and unsigned char are collectively called + the character types. The implementation shall define char to have the same range, + representation, and behavior as either signed char or unsigned char.45) +
+ An enumeration comprises a set of named integer constant values. Each distinct + enumeration constitutes a different enumerated type. +
+ The type char, the signed and unsigned integer types, and the enumerated types are + collectively called integer types. The integer and real floating types are collectively called + real types. +
+ Integer and floating types are collectively called arithmetic types. Each arithmetic type + belongs to one type domain: the real type domain comprises the real types, the complex + type domain comprises the complex types. +
+ The void type comprises an empty set of values; it is an incomplete object type that + cannot be completed. + + + + +
+ Any number of derived types can be constructed from the object and function types, as + follows: +
+ Arithmetic types and pointer types are collectively called scalar types. Array and + structure types are collectively called aggregate types.46) +
+ An array type of unknown size is an incomplete type. It is completed, for an identifier of + that type, by specifying the size in a later declaration (with internal or external linkage). + A structure or union type of unknown content (as described in 6.7.2.3) is an incomplete + + + + type. It is completed, for all declarations of that type, by declaring the same structure or + union tag with its defining content later in the same scope. +
+ A type has known constant size if the type is not incomplete and is not a variable length + array type. +
+ Array, function, and pointer types are collectively called derived declarator types. A + declarator type derivation from a type T is the construction of a derived declarator type + from T by the application of an array-type, a function-type, or a pointer-type derivation to + T. +
+ A type is characterized by its type category, which is either the outermost derivation of a + derived type (as noted above in the construction of derived types), or the type itself if the + type consists of no derived types. +
+ Any type so far mentioned is an unqualified type. Each unqualified type has several + qualified versions of its type,47) corresponding to the combinations of one, two, or all + three of the const, volatile, and restrict qualifiers. The qualified or unqualified + versions of a type are distinct types that belong to the same type category and have the + same representation and alignment requirements.48) A derived type is not qualified by the + qualifiers (if any) of the type from which it is derived. +
+ Further, there is the _Atomic qualifier. The presence of the _Atomic qualifier + designates an atomic type. The size, representation, and alignment of an atomic type + need not be the same as those of the corresponding unqualified type. Therefore, this + Standard explicitly uses the phrase ''atomic, qualified or unqualified type'' whenever the + atomic version of a type is permitted along with the other qualified versions of a type. + The phrase ''qualified or unqualified type'', without specific mention of atomic, does not + include the atomic types. +
+ A pointer to void shall have the same representation and alignment requirements as a + pointer to a character type.48) Similarly, pointers to qualified or unqualified versions of + compatible types shall have the same representation and alignment requirements. All + pointers to structure types shall have the same representation and alignment requirements + as each other. All pointers to union types shall have the same representation and + alignment requirements as each other. Pointers to other types need not have the same + representation or alignment requirements. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The type designated as ''float *'' has type ''pointer to float''. Its type category is + pointer, not a floating type. The const-qualified version of this type is designated as ''float * const'' + whereas the type designated as ''const float *'' is not a qualified type -- its type is ''pointer to const- + + + + qualified float'' and is a pointer to a qualified type. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 The type designated as ''struct tag (*[5])(float)'' has type ''array of pointer to + function returning struct tag''. The array has length five and the function has a single parameter of type + float. Its type category is array. + +

45) CHAR_MIN, defined in <limits.h>, will have one of the values 0 or SCHAR_MIN, and this can be + used to distinguish the two options. Irrespective of the choice made, char is a separate type from the + other two and is not compatible with either. + +

+ The representations of all types are unspecified except as stated in this subclause. +
+ Except for bit-fields, objects are composed of contiguous sequences of one or more bytes, + the number, order, and encoding of which are either explicitly specified or + implementation-defined. +
+ Values stored in unsigned bit-fields and objects of type unsigned char shall be + represented using a pure binary notation.49) +
+ Values stored in non-bit-field objects of any other object type consist of n x CHAR_BIT + bits, where n is the size of an object of that type, in bytes. The value may be copied into + an object of type unsigned char [n] (e.g., by memcpy); the resulting set of bytes is + called the object representation of the value. Values stored in bit-fields consist of m bits, + where m is the size specified for the bit-field. The object representation is the set of m + bits the bit-field comprises in the addressable storage unit holding it. Two values (other + than NaNs) with the same object representation compare equal, but values that compare + equal may have different object representations. +
+ Certain object representations need not represent a value of the object type. If the stored + value of an object has such a representation and is read by an lvalue expression that does + not have character type, the behavior is undefined. If such a representation is produced + by a side effect that modifies all or any part of the object by an lvalue expression that + does not have character type, the behavior is undefined.50) Such a representation is called + a trap representation. +
+ When a value is stored in an object of structure or union type, including in a member + object, the bytes of the object representation that correspond to any padding bytes take + unspecified values.51) The value of a structure or union object is never a trap + + + + representation, even though the value of a member of the structure or union object may be + a trap representation. +
+ When a value is stored in a member of an object of union type, the bytes of the object + representation that do not correspond to that member but do correspond to other members + take unspecified values. +
+ Where an operator is applied to a value that has more than one object representation, + which object representation is used shall not affect the value of the result.52) Where a + value is stored in an object using a type that has more than one object representation for + that value, it is unspecified which representation is used, but a trap representation shall + not be generated. +
+ Loads and stores of objects with atomic types are done with + memory_order_seq_cst semantics. +

+ For unsigned integer types other than unsigned char, the bits of the object + representation shall be divided into two groups: value bits and padding bits (there need + not be any of the latter). If there are N value bits, each bit shall represent a different + power of 2 between 1 and 2 N -1 , so that objects of that type shall be capable of + representing values from 0 to 2 N - 1 using a pure binary representation; this shall be + known as the value representation. The values of any padding bits are unspecified.53) +
+ For signed integer types, the bits of the object representation shall be divided into three + groups: value bits, padding bits, and the sign bit. There need not be any padding bits; + signed char shall not have any padding bits. There shall be exactly one sign bit. + Each bit that is a value bit shall have the same value as the same bit in the object + representation of the corresponding unsigned type (if there are M value bits in the signed + type and N in the unsigned type, then M <= N ). If the sign bit is zero, it shall not affect + + + the resulting value. If the sign bit is one, the value shall be modified in one of the + following ways: +
+ If the implementation supports negative zeros, they shall be generated only by: +
+ If the implementation does not support negative zeros, the behavior of the &, |, ^, ~, <<, + and >> operators with operands that would produce such a value is undefined. +
+ The values of any padding bits are unspecified.54) A valid (non-trap) object representation + of a signed integer type where the sign bit is zero is a valid object representation of the + corresponding unsigned type, and shall represent the same value. For any integer type, + the object representation where all the bits are zero shall be a representation of the value + zero in that type. +
+ The precision of an integer type is the number of bits it uses to represent values, + excluding any sign and padding bits. The width of an integer type is the same but + including any sign bit; thus for unsigned integer types the two values are the same, while + for signed integer types the width is one greater than the precision. + + + + + + +

If both are completed anywhere within their + respective translation units, then the following additional requirements apply: there shall + be a one-to-one correspondence between their members such that each pair of + corresponding members are declared with compatible types; if one member of the pair is + declared with an alignment specifier, the other is declared with an equivalent alignment + specifier; and if one member of the pair is declared with a name, the other is declared + with the same name. For two structures, corresponding members shall be declared in the + same order. For two structures or unions, corresponding bit-fields shall have the same + widths.

+ Complete object types have alignment requirements which place restrictions on the + addresses at which objects of that type may be allocated. An alignment is an + implementation-defined integer value representing the number of bytes between + successive addresses at which a given object can be allocated. An object type imposes an + alignment requirement on every object of that type: stricter alignment can be requested + using the _Alignas keyword. +
+ A fundamental alignment is represented by an alignment less than or equal to the greatest + alignment supported by the implementation in all contexts, which is equal to + alignof(max_align_t). +
+ An extended alignment is represented by an alignment greater than + alignof(max_align_t). It is implementation-defined whether any extended + alignments are supported and the contexts in which they are supported. A type having an + extended alignment requirement is an over-aligned type.57) +
+ Alignments are represented as values of the type size_t. Valid alignments include only + those values returned by an alignof expression for fundamental types, plus an + additional implementation-defined set of values, which may be empty. Every valid + alignment value shall be a nonnegative integral power of two. + + + +
+ Alignments have an order from weaker to stronger or stricter alignments. Stricter + alignments have larger alignment values. An address that satisfies an alignment + requirement also satisfies any weaker valid alignment requirement. +

+ Many operators that expect operands of arithmetic type cause conversions and yield result + types in a similar way. The purpose is to determine a common real type for the operands + and result.

Then the + following rules are applied to the promoted operands: + If both operands have the same type, then no further conversion is needed. + Otherwise, if both operands have signed integer types or both have unsigned + integer types, the operand with the type of lesser integer conversion rank is + converted to the type of the operand with greater rank. + Otherwise, if the operand that has unsigned integer type has rank greater or + equal to the rank of the type of the other operand, then the operand with + signed integer type is converted to the type of the operand with unsigned + integer type. + Otherwise, if the type of the operand with signed integer type can represent + all of the values of the type of the operand with unsigned integer type, then + the operand with unsigned integer type is converted to the type of the + operand with signed integer type. + Otherwise, both operands are converted to the unsigned integer type + corresponding to the type of the operand with signed integer type. ++
+ The values of floating operands and of the results of floating expressions may be + represented in greater precision and range than that required by the type; the types are not + changed thereby.63) + + + + + + +

+ An lvalue is an expression (with an object type other than void) that potentially + designates an object;64) if an lvalue does not designate an object when it is evaluated, the + behavior is undefined. When an object is said to have a particular type, the type is + specified by the lvalue used to designate the object. A modifiable lvalue is an lvalue that + does not have array type, does not have an incomplete type, does not have a const- + qualified type, and if it is a structure or union, does not have any member (including, + recursively, any member or element of all contained aggregates or unions) with a const- + qualified type. +
+ Except when it is the operand of the sizeof operator, the unary & operator, the ++ + operator, the -- operator, or the left operand of the . operator or an assignment operator, + an lvalue that does not have array type is converted to the value stored in the designated + object (and is no longer an lvalue); this is called lvalue conversion. If the lvalue has + qualified type, the value has the unqualified version of the type of the lvalue; additionally, + if the lvalue has atomic type, the value has the non-atomic version of the type of the + lvalue; otherwise, the value has the type of the lvalue. If the lvalue has an incomplete + type and does not have array type, the behavior is undefined. If the lvalue designates an + object of automatic storage duration that could have been declared with the register + storage class (never had its address taken), and that object is uninitialized (not declared + with an initializer and no assignment to it has been performed prior to use), the behavior + is undefined. +
+ Except when it is the operand of the sizeof operator or the unary & operator, or is a + string literal used to initialize an array, an expression that has type ''array of type'' is + converted to an expression with type ''pointer to type'' that points to the initial element of + the array object and is not an lvalue. If the array object has register storage class, the + behavior is undefined. +
+ A function designator is an expression that has function type. Except when it is the + operand of the sizeof operator65) or the unary & operator, a function designator with + type ''function returning type'' is converted to an expression that has type ''pointer to + + + + function returning type''. +

64) The name ''lvalue'' comes originally from the assignment expression E1 = E2, in which the left + operand E1 is required to be a (modifiable) lvalue. It is perhaps better considered as representing an + object ''locator value''. What is sometimes called ''rvalue'' is in this International Standard described + as the ''value of an expression''. + An obvious example of an lvalue is an identifier of an object. As a further example, if E is a unary + expression that is a pointer to an object, *E is an lvalue that designates the object to which E points. + +

+ A token is the minimal lexical element of the language in translation phases 7 and 8. The + categories of tokens are: keywords, identifiers, constants, string literals, and punctuators. + A preprocessing token is the minimal lexical element of the language in translation + phases 3 through 6. The categories of preprocessing tokens are: header names, + identifiers, preprocessing numbers, character constants, string literals, punctuators, and + single non-white-space characters that do not lexically match the other preprocessing + token categories.69) If a ' or a " character matches the last category, the behavior is + undefined. Preprocessing tokens can be separated by white space; this consists of + comments (described later), or white-space characters (space, horizontal tab, new-line, + vertical tab, and form-feed), or both. As described in 6.10, in certain circumstances + during translation phase 4, white space (or the absence thereof) serves as more than + preprocessing token separation. White space may appear within a preprocessing token + only as part of a header name or between the quotation characters in a character constant + or string literal. + + + + +
+ If the input stream has been parsed into preprocessing tokens up to a given character, the + next preprocessing token is the longest sequence of characters that could constitute a + preprocessing token. There is one exception to this rule: header name preprocessing + tokens are recognized only within #include preprocessing directives and in + implementation-defined locations within #pragma directives. In such contexts, a + sequence of characters that could be either a header name or a string literal is recognized + as the former. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The program fragment 1Ex is parsed as a preprocessing number token (one that is not a + valid floating or integer constant token), even though a parse as the pair of preprocessing tokens 1 and Ex + might produce a valid expression (for example, if Ex were a macro defined as +1).

+ An identifier is a sequence of nondigit characters (including the underscore _, the + lowercase and uppercase Latin letters, and other characters) and digits, which designates + one or more entities as described in 6.2.1. Lowercase and uppercase letters are distinct. + There is no specific limit on the maximum length of an identifier. +
+ Each universal character name in an identifier shall designate a character whose encoding + in ISO/IEC 10646 falls into one of the ranges specified in D.1.71) The initial character + shall not be a universal character name designating a character whose encoding falls into + one of the ranges specified in D.2. An implementation may allow multibyte characters + that are not part of the basic source character set to appear in identifiers; which characters + and their correspondence to universal character names is implementation-defined. + + + + +
+ When preprocessing tokens are converted to tokens during translation phase 7, if a + preprocessing token could be converted to either a keyword or an identifier, it is converted + to a keyword. +
Implementation limits +
+ As discussed in 5.2.4.1, an implementation may limit the number of significant initial + characters in an identifier; the limit for an external name (an identifier that has external + linkage) may be more restrictive than that for an internal name (a macro name or an + identifier that does not have external linkage).

Description +
+ A floating constant has a significand part that may be followed by an exponent part and a + suffix that specifies its type. The components of the significand part may include a digit + sequence representing the whole-number part, followed by a period (.), followed by a + digit sequence representing the fraction part. The components of the exponent part are an + e, E, p, or P followed by an exponent consisting of an optionally signed digit sequence. + Either the whole-number part or the fraction part has to be present; for decimal floating + constants, either the period or the exponent part has to be present. +
Semantics +
+ The significand part is interpreted as a (decimal or hexadecimal) rational number; the + digit sequence in the exponent part is interpreted as a decimal integer. For decimal + floating constants, the exponent indicates the power of 10 by which the significand part is + to be scaled. For hexadecimal floating constants, the exponent indicates the power of 2 + by which the significand part is to be scaled. For decimal floating constants, and also for + hexadecimal floating constants when FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, the result is either + the nearest representable value, or the larger or smaller representable value immediately + adjacent to the nearest representable value, chosen in an implementation-defined manner. + For hexadecimal floating constants when FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the result is + correctly rounded. +
+ An unsuffixed floating constant has type double. If suffixed by the letter f or F, it has + type float. If suffixed by the letter l or L, it has type long double. +
+ Floating constants are converted to internal format as if at translation-time. The + conversion of a floating constant shall not raise an exceptional condition or a floating- + point exception at execution time. All floating constants of the same source form75) shall + convert to the same internal format with the same value. +
Recommended practice +
+ The implementation should produce a diagnostic message if a hexadecimal constant + cannot be represented exactly in its evaluation format; the implementation should then + proceed with the translation of the program. +
+ The translation-time conversion of floating constants should match the execution-time + conversion of character strings by library functions, such as strtod, given matching + inputs suitable for both conversions, the same result format, and default execution-time + rounding.76) + + + +
Footnotes +
75) 1.23, 1.230, 123e-2, 123e-02, and 1.23L are all different source forms and thus need not + convert to the same internal format and value. + +

Description +
+ An integer character constant is a sequence of one or more multibyte characters enclosed + in single-quotes, as in 'x'. A wide character constant is the same, except prefixed by the + letter L, u, or U. With a few exceptions detailed later, the elements of the sequence are + any members of the source character set; they are mapped in an implementation-defined + manner to members of the execution character set. +
+ The single-quote ', the double-quote ", the question-mark ?, the backslash \, and + arbitrary integer values are representable according to the following table of escape + sequences: +
+ single quote ' \' + double quote " \" + question mark ? \? + backslash \ \\ + octal character \octal digits + hexadecimal character \x hexadecimal digits ++
+ The double-quote " and question-mark ? are representable either by themselves or by the + escape sequences \" and \?, respectively, but the single-quote ' and the backslash \ + shall be represented, respectively, by the escape sequences \' and \\. +
+ The octal digits that follow the backslash in an octal escape sequence are taken to be part + of the construction of a single character for an integer character constant or of a single + wide character for a wide character constant. The numerical value of the octal integer so + formed specifies the value of the desired character or wide character. +
+ The hexadecimal digits that follow the backslash and the letter x in a hexadecimal escape + sequence are taken to be part of the construction of a single character for an integer + character constant or of a single wide character for a wide character constant. The + numerical value of the hexadecimal integer so formed specifies the value of the desired + character or wide character. +
+ Each octal or hexadecimal escape sequence is the longest sequence of characters that can + constitute the escape sequence. +
+ In addition, characters not in the basic character set are representable by universal + character names and certain nongraphic characters are representable by escape sequences + consisting of the backslash \ followed by a lowercase letter: \a, \b, \f, \n, \r, \t, + and \v.77) + +

Semantics +
+ An integer character constant has type int. The value of an integer character constant + containing a single character that maps to a single-byte execution character is the + numerical value of the representation of the mapped character interpreted as an integer. + The value of an integer character constant containing more than one character (e.g., + 'ab'), or containing a character or escape sequence that does not map to a single-byte + execution character, is implementation-defined. If an integer character constant contains + a single character or escape sequence, its value is the one that results when an object with + type char whose value is that of the single character or escape sequence is converted to + type int. +
+ A wide character constant prefixed by the letter L has type wchar_t, an integer type + defined in the <stddef.h> header; a wide character constant prefixed by the letter u or + U has type char16_t or char32_t, respectively, unsigned integer types defined in the + <uchar.h> header. The value of a wide character constant containing a single + multibyte character that maps to a single member of the extended execution character set + is the wide character corresponding to that multibyte character, as defined by the + mbtowc, mbrtoc16, or mbrtoc32 function as appropriate for its type, with an + implementation-defined current locale. The value of a wide character constant containing + more than one multibyte character or a single multibyte character that maps to multiple + members of the extended execution character set, or containing a multibyte character or + escape sequence not represented in the extended execution character set, is + implementation-defined. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The construction '\0' is commonly used to represent the null character. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 Consider implementations that use two's complement representation for integers and eight + bits for objects that have type char. In an implementation in which type char has the same range of + values as signed char, the integer character constant '\xFF' has the value -1; if type char has the + same range of values as unsigned char, the character constant '\xFF' has the value +255. + + + + + +
+ EXAMPLE 3 Even if eight bits are used for objects that have type char, the construction '\x123' + specifies an integer character constant containing only one character, since a hexadecimal escape sequence + is terminated only by a non-hexadecimal character. To specify an integer character constant containing the + two characters whose values are '\x12' and '3', the construction '\0223' may be used, since an octal + escape sequence is terminated after three octal digits. (The value of this two-character integer character + constant is implementation-defined.) + +
+ EXAMPLE 4 Even if 12 or more bits are used for objects that have type wchar_t, the construction + L'\1234' specifies the implementation-defined value that results from the combination of the values + 0123 and '4'. + +

+ In translation phase 7, a byte or code of value zero is appended to each multibyte + character sequence that results from a string literal or literals.78) The multibyte character + sequence is then used to initialize an array of static storage duration and length just + sufficient to contain the sequence. For character string literals, the array elements have + type char, and are initialized with the individual bytes of the multibyte character + sequence. For UTF-8 string literals, the array elements have type char, and are + initialized with the characters of the multibyte character sequence, as encoded in UTF-8. + For wide string literals prefixed by the letter L, the array elements have type wchar_t + and are initialized with the sequence of wide characters corresponding to the multibyte + character sequence, as defined by the mbstowcs function with an implementation- + defined current locale. For wide string literals prefixed by the letter u or U, the array + elements have type char16_t or char32_t, respectively, and are initialized with the + sequence of wide characters corresponding to the multibyte character sequence, as + defined by successive calls to the mbrtoc16, or mbrtoc32 function as appropriate for + its type, with an implementation-defined current locale. The value of a string literal + containing a multibyte character or escape sequence not represented in the execution + character set is implementation-defined. +
+ It is unspecified whether these arrays are distinct provided their elements have the + appropriate values. If the program attempts to modify such an array, the behavior is + undefined. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 This pair of adjacent character string literals +
+ "\x12" "3" ++ produces a single character string literal containing the two characters whose values are '\x12' and '3', + because escape sequences are converted into single members of the execution character set just prior to + adjacent string literal concatenation. + +

+ "a" "b" L"c" + "a" L"b" "c" + L"a" "b" L"c" + L"a" L"b" L"c" ++ is equivalent to the string literal +

+ An expression is a sequence of operators and operands that specifies computation of a + value, or that designates an object or a function, or that generates side effects, or that + performs a combination thereof. The value computations of the operands of an operator + are sequenced before the value computation of the result of the operator. +
+ If a side effect on a scalar object is unsequenced relative to either a different side effect + on the same scalar object or a value computation using the value of the same scalar + object, the behavior is undefined. If there are multiple allowable orderings of the + subexpressions of an expression, the behavior is undefined if such an unsequenced side + effect occurs in any of the orderings.84) +
+ The grouping of operators and operands is indicated by the syntax.85) Except as specified + later, side effects and value computations of subexpressions are unsequenced.86) * +
+ Some operators (the unary operator ~, and the binary operators <<, >>, &, ^, and |, + collectively described as bitwise operators) are required to have operands that have + integer type. These operators yield values that depend on the internal representations of + integers, and have implementation-defined and undefined aspects for signed types. +
+ If an exceptional condition occurs during the evaluation of an expression (that is, if the + result is not mathematically defined or not in the range of representable values for its + type), the behavior is undefined. + + + + +
+ The effective type of an object for an access to its stored value is the declared type of the + object, if any.87) If a value is stored into an object having no declared type through an + lvalue having a type that is not a character type, then the type of the lvalue becomes the + effective type of the object for that access and for subsequent accesses that do not modify + the stored value. If a value is copied into an object having no declared type using + memcpy or memmove, or is copied as an array of character type, then the effective type + of the modified object for that access and for subsequent accesses that do not modify the + value is the effective type of the object from which the value is copied, if it has one. For + all other accesses to an object having no declared type, the effective type of the object is + simply the type of the lvalue used for the access. +

85) The syntax specifies the precedence of operators in the evaluation of an expression, which is the same + as the order of the major subclauses of this subclause, highest precedence first. Thus, for example, the + expressions allowed as the operands of the binary + operator (6.5.6) are those expressions defined in + 6.5.1 through 6.5.6. The exceptions are cast expressions (6.5.4) as operands of unary operators + (6.5.3), and an operand contained between any of the following pairs of operators: grouping + parentheses () (6.5.1), subscripting brackets [] (6.5.2.1), function-call parentheses () (6.5.2.2), and + the conditional operator ? : (6.5.15). + Within each major subclause, the operators have the same precedence. Left- or right-associativity is + indicated in each subclause by the syntax for the expressions discussed therein. + +
86) In an expression that is evaluated more than once during the execution of a program, unsequenced and + indeterminately sequenced evaluations of its subexpressions need not be performed consistently in + different evaluations. + +

88) The intent of this list is to specify those circumstances in which an object may or may not be aliased. + +

A contracted expression might also omit the raising of floating-point exceptions. + +

+ One of the expressions shall have type ''pointer to complete object type'', the other + expression shall have integer type, and the result has type ''type''. +
Semantics +
+ A postfix expression followed by an expression in square brackets [] is a subscripted + designation of an element of an array object. The definition of the subscript operator [] + is that E1[E2] is identical to (*((E1)+(E2))). Because of the conversion rules that + apply to the binary + operator, if E1 is an array object (equivalently, a pointer to the + initial element of an array object) and E2 is an integer, E1[E2] designates the E2-th + element of E1 (counting from zero). +
+ Successive subscript operators designate an element of a multidimensional array object. + If E is an n-dimensional array (n >= 2) with dimensions i x j x . . . x k, then E (used as + other than an lvalue) is converted to a pointer to an (n - 1)-dimensional array with + dimensions j x . . . x k. If the unary * operator is applied to this pointer explicitly, or + implicitly as a result of subscripting, the result is the referenced (n - 1)-dimensional + array, which itself is converted into a pointer if used as other than an lvalue. It follows + from this that arrays are stored in row-major order (last subscript varies fastest). +
+ EXAMPLE Consider the array object defined by the declaration +
+ int x[3][5]; ++ Here x is a 3 x 5 array of ints; more precisely, x is an array of three element objects, each of which is an + array of five ints. In the expression x[i], which is equivalent to (*((x)+(i))), x is first converted to + a pointer to the initial array of five ints. Then i is adjusted according to the type of x, which conceptually + entails multiplying i by the size of the object to which the pointer points, namely an array of five int + objects. The results are added and indirection is applied to yield an array of five ints. When used in the + expression x[i][j], that array is in turn converted to a pointer to the first of the ints, so x[i][j] + yields an int. + +

Each argument shall + + + + have a type such that its value may be assigned to an object with the unqualified version + of the type of its corresponding parameter. +
Semantics +
+ A postfix expression followed by parentheses () containing a possibly empty, comma- + separated list of expressions is a function call. The postfix expression denotes the called + function. The list of expressions specifies the arguments to the function. +
+ An argument may be an expression of any complete object type. In preparing for the call + to a function, the arguments are evaluated, and each parameter is assigned the value of the + corresponding argument.93) +
+ If the expression that denotes the called function has type pointer to function returning an + object type, the function call expression has the same type as that object type, and has the + value determined as specified in 6.8.6.4. Otherwise, the function call has type void. * +
+ If the expression that denotes the called function has a type that does not include a + prototype, the integer promotions are performed on each argument, and arguments that + have type float are promoted to double. These are called the default argument + promotions. If the number of arguments does not equal the number of parameters, the + behavior is undefined. If the function is defined with a type that includes a prototype, and + either the prototype ends with an ellipsis (, ...) or the types of the arguments after + promotion are not compatible with the types of the parameters, the behavior is undefined. + If the function is defined with a type that does not include a prototype, and the types of + the arguments after promotion are not compatible with those of the parameters after + promotion, the behavior is undefined, except for the following cases: +
+ If the expression that denotes the called function has a type that does include a prototype, + the arguments are implicitly converted, as if by assignment, to the types of the + corresponding parameters, taking the type of each parameter to be the unqualified version + of its declared type. The ellipsis notation in a function prototype declarator causes + argument type conversion to stop after the last declared parameter. The default argument + promotions are performed on trailing arguments. + + + + +
+ No other conversions are performed implicitly; in particular, the number and types of + arguments are not compared with those of the parameters in a function definition that + does not include a function prototype declarator. +
+ If the function is defined with a type that is not compatible with the type (of the + expression) pointed to by the expression that denotes the called function, the behavior is + undefined. +
+ There is a sequence point after the evaluations of the function designator and the actual + arguments but before the actual call. Every evaluation in the calling function (including + other function calls) that is not otherwise specifically sequenced before or after the + execution of the body of the called function is indeterminately sequenced with respect to + the execution of the called function.94) +

The last token in the sequence is the first new- - line character that follows the first token in the sequence.165) A new-line character ends - the preprocessing directive even if it occurs within what would otherwise be an - - 165) Thus, preprocessing directives are commonly called ''lines''. These ''lines'' have no other syntactic - significance, as all white space is equivalent except in certain situations during preprocessing (see the - # character string literal creation operator in 6.10.3.2, for example). - -[page 160] (Contents) - - invocation of a function-like macro. -3 A text line shall not begin with a # preprocessing token. A non-directive shall not begin - with any of the directive names appearing in the syntax. -4 When in a group that is skipped (6.10.1), the directive syntax is relaxed to allow any - sequence of preprocessing tokens to occur between the directive name and the following - new-line character. - Constraints -5 The only white-space characters that shall appear between preprocessing tokens within a - preprocessing directive (from just after the introducing # preprocessing token through - just before the terminating new-line character) are space and horizontal-tab (including - spaces that have replaced comments or possibly other white-space characters in - translation phase 3). - Semantics -6 The implementation can process and skip sections of source files conditionally, include - other source files, and replace macros. These capabilities are called preprocessing, - because conceptually they occur before translation of the resulting translation unit. -7 The preprocessing tokens within a preprocessing directive are not subject to macro - expansion unless otherwise stated. -8 EXAMPLE In: - #define EMPTY - EMPTY # include <file.h> - the sequence of preprocessing tokens on the second line is not a preprocessing directive, because it does not - begin with a # at the start of translation phase 4, even though it will do so after the macro EMPTY has been - replaced. - - 6.10.1 Conditional inclusion - Constraints -1 The expression that controls conditional inclusion shall be an integer constant expression - except that: identifiers (including those lexically identical to keywords) are interpreted as * - described below;166) and it may contain unary operator expressions of the form - defined identifier - or - defined ( identifier ) - which evaluate to 1 if the identifier is currently defined as a macro name (that is, if it is - - - 166) Because the controlling constant expression is evaluated during translation phase 4, all identifiers - either are or are not macro names -- there simply are no keywords, enumeration constants, etc. - -[page 161] (Contents) - - predefined or if it has been the subject of a #define preprocessing directive without an - intervening #undef directive with the same subject identifier), 0 if it is not. -2 Each preprocessing token that remains (in the list of preprocessing tokens that will - become the controlling expression) after all macro replacements have occurred shall be in - the lexical form of a token (6.4). - Semantics -3 Preprocessing directives of the forms - # if constant-expression new-line groupopt - # elif constant-expression new-line groupopt - check whether the controlling constant expression evaluates to nonzero. -4 Prior to evaluation, macro invocations in the list of preprocessing tokens that will become - the controlling constant expression are replaced (except for those macro names modified - by the defined unary operator), just as in normal text. If the token defined is - generated as a result of this replacement process or use of the defined unary operator - does not match one of the two specified forms prior to macro replacement, the behavior is - undefined. After all replacements due to macro expansion and the defined unary - operator have been performed, all remaining identifiers (including those lexically - identical to keywords) are replaced with the pp-number 0, and then each preprocessing - token is converted into a token. The resulting tokens compose the controlling constant - expression which is evaluated according to the rules of 6.6. For the purposes of this - token conversion and evaluation, all signed integer types and all unsigned integer types - act as if they have the same representation as, respectively, the types intmax_t and - uintmax_t defined in the header <stdint.h>.167) This includes interpreting - character constants, which may involve converting escape sequences into execution - character set members. Whether the numeric value for these character constants matches - the value obtained when an identical character constant occurs in an expression (other - than within a #if or #elif directive) is implementation-defined.168) Also, whether a - single-character character constant may have a negative value is implementation-defined. - - - - - 167) Thus, on an implementation where INT_MAX is 0x7FFF and UINT_MAX is 0xFFFF, the constant - 0x8000 is signed and positive within a #if expression even though it would be unsigned in - translation phase 7. - 168) Thus, the constant expression in the following #if directive and if statement is not guaranteed to - evaluate to the same value in these two contexts. - #if 'z' - 'a' == 25 - if ('z' - 'a' == 25) - - -[page 162] (Contents) - -5 Preprocessing directives of the forms - # ifdef identifier new-line groupopt - # ifndef identifier new-line groupopt - check whether the identifier is or is not currently defined as a macro name. Their - conditions are equivalent to #if defined identifier and #if !defined identifier - respectively. -6 Each directive's condition is checked in order. If it evaluates to false (zero), the group - that it controls is skipped: directives are processed only through the name that determines - the directive in order to keep track of the level of nested conditionals; the rest of the - directives' preprocessing tokens are ignored, as are the other preprocessing tokens in the - group. Only the first group whose control condition evaluates to true (nonzero) is - processed. If none of the conditions evaluates to true, and there is a #else directive, the - group controlled by the #else is processed; lacking a #else directive, all the groups - until the #endif are skipped.169) - Forward references: macro replacement (6.10.3), source file inclusion (6.10.2), largest - integer types (7.20.1.5). - 6.10.2 Source file inclusion - Constraints -1 A #include directive shall identify a header or source file that can be processed by the - implementation. - Semantics -2 A preprocessing directive of the form - # include <h-char-sequence> new-line - searches a sequence of implementation-defined places for a header identified uniquely by - the specified sequence between the < and > delimiters, and causes the replacement of that - directive by the entire contents of the header.

If this search is not supported, or if the search - fails, the directive is reprocessed as if it read - # include <h-char-sequence> new-line - with the identical contained sequence (including > characters, if any) from the original - directive. -4 A preprocessing directive of the form - # include pp-tokens new-line - (that does not match one of the two previous forms) is permitted. The preprocessing - tokens after include in the directive are processed just as in normal text. (Each - identifier currently defined as a macro name is replaced by its replacement list of - preprocessing tokens.) The directive resulting after all replacements shall match one of - the two previous forms.170) The method by which a sequence of preprocessing tokens - between a < and a > preprocessing token pair or a pair of " characters is combined into a - single header name preprocessing token is implementation-defined. -5 The implementation shall provide unique mappings for sequences consisting of one or - more nondigits or digits (6.4.2.1) followed by a period (.) and a single nondigit. The - first character shall not be a digit. The implementation may ignore distinctions of - alphabetical case and restrict the mapping to eight significant characters before the - period. -6 A #include preprocessing directive may appear in a source file that has been read - because of a #include directive in another file, up to an implementation-defined - nesting limit (see 5.2.4.1). -7 EXAMPLE 1 The most common uses of #include preprocessing directives are as in the following: - #include <stdio.h> - #include "myprog.h" - - - - - 170) Note that adjacent string literals are not concatenated into a single string literal (see the translation - phases in 5.1.1.2); thus, an expansion that results in two string literals is an invalid directive. - -[page 164] (Contents) - -8 EXAMPLE 2 This illustrates macro-replaced #include directives: - #if VERSION == 1 - #define INCFILE "vers1.h" - #elif VERSION == 2 - #define INCFILE "vers2.h" // and so on - #else - #define INCFILE "versN.h" - #endif - #include INCFILE - - Forward references: macro replacement (6.10.3). - 6.10.3 Macro replacement - Constraints -1 Two replacement lists are identical if and only if the preprocessing tokens in both have - the same number, ordering, spelling, and white-space separation, where all white-space - separations are considered identical. -2 An identifier currently defined as an object-like macro shall not be redefined by another - #define preprocessing directive unless the second definition is an object-like macro - definition and the two replacement lists are identical. Likewise, an identifier currently - defined as a function-like macro shall not be redefined by another #define - preprocessing directive unless the second definition is a function-like macro definition - that has the same number and spelling of parameters, and the two replacement lists are - identical. -3 There shall be white-space between the identifier and the replacement list in the definition - of an object-like macro. -4 If the identifier-list in the macro definition does not end with an ellipsis, the number of - arguments (including those arguments consisting of no preprocessing tokens) in an - invocation of a function-like macro shall equal the number of parameters in the macro - definition. Otherwise, there shall be more arguments in the invocation than there are - parameters in the macro definition (excluding the ...). There shall exist a ) - preprocessing token that terminates the invocation. -5 The identifier __VA_ARGS__ shall occur only in the replacement-list of a function-like - macro that uses the ellipsis notation in the parameters. -6 A parameter identifier in a function-like macro shall be uniquely declared within its - scope. - Semantics -7 The identifier immediately following the define is called the macro name. There is one - name space for macro names. Any white-space characters preceding or following the - replacement list of preprocessing tokens are not considered part of the replacement list - -[page 165] (Contents) - - for either form of macro. -8 If a # preprocessing token, followed by an identifier, occurs lexically at the point at which - a preprocessing directive could begin, the identifier is not subject to macro replacement. -9 A preprocessing directive of the form - # define identifier replacement-list new-line - defines an object-like macro that causes each subsequent instance of the macro name171) - to be replaced by the replacement list of preprocessing tokens that constitute the - remainder of the directive. The replacement list is then rescanned for more macro names - as specified below. -10 A preprocessing directive of the form - # define identifier lparen identifier-listopt ) replacement-list new-line - # define identifier lparen ... ) replacement-list new-line - # define identifier lparen identifier-list , ... ) replacement-list new-line - defines a function-like macro with parameters, whose use is similar syntactically to a - function call. The parameters are specified by the optional list of identifiers, whose scope - extends from their declaration in the identifier list until the new-line character that - terminates the #define preprocessing directive. Each subsequent instance of the - function-like macro name followed by a ( as the next preprocessing token introduces the - sequence of preprocessing tokens that is replaced by the replacement list in the definition - (an invocation of the macro). The replaced sequence of preprocessing tokens is - terminated by the matching ) preprocessing token, skipping intervening matched pairs of - left and right parenthesis preprocessing tokens. Within the sequence of preprocessing - tokens making up an invocation of a function-like macro, new-line is considered a normal - white-space character. -11 The sequence of preprocessing tokens bounded by the outside-most matching parentheses - forms the list of arguments for the function-like macro. The individual arguments within - the list are separated by comma preprocessing tokens, but comma preprocessing tokens - between matching inner parentheses do not separate arguments. If there are sequences of - preprocessing tokens within the list of arguments that would otherwise act as - preprocessing directives,172) the behavior is undefined. -12 If there is a ... in the identifier-list in the macro definition, then the trailing arguments, - including any separating comma preprocessing tokens, are merged to form a single item: - - - 171) Since, by macro-replacement time, all character constants and string literals are preprocessing tokens, - not sequences possibly containing identifier-like subsequences (see 5.1.1.2, translation phases), they - are never scanned for macro names or parameters. - 172) Despite the name, a non-directive is a preprocessing directive. - -[page 166] (Contents) - - the variable arguments. The number of arguments so combined is such that, following - merger, the number of arguments is one more than the number of parameters in the macro - definition (excluding the ...). - 6.10.3.1 Argument substitution -1 After the arguments for the invocation of a function-like macro have been identified, - argument substitution takes place. A parameter in the replacement list, unless preceded - by a # or ## preprocessing token or followed by a ## preprocessing token (see below), is - replaced by the corresponding argument after all macros contained therein have been - expanded. Before being substituted, each argument's preprocessing tokens are - completely macro replaced as if they formed the rest of the preprocessing file; no other - preprocessing tokens are available. -2 An identifier __VA_ARGS__ that occurs in the replacement list shall be treated as if it - were a parameter, and the variable arguments shall form the preprocessing tokens used to - replace it. - 6.10.3.2 The # operator - Constraints -1 Each # preprocessing token in the replacement list for a function-like macro shall be - followed by a parameter as the next preprocessing token in the replacement list. - Semantics -2 If, in the replacement list, a parameter is immediately preceded by a # preprocessing - token, both are replaced by a single character string literal preprocessing token that - contains the spelling of the preprocessing token sequence for the corresponding - argument. Each occurrence of white space between the argument's preprocessing tokens - becomes a single space character in the character string literal. White space before the - first preprocessing token and after the last preprocessing token composing the argument - is deleted. Otherwise, the original spelling of each preprocessing token in the argument - is retained in the character string literal, except for special handling for producing the - spelling of string literals and character constants: a \ character is inserted before each " - and \ character of a character constant or string literal (including the delimiting " - characters), except that it is implementation-defined whether a \ character is inserted - before the \ character beginning a universal character name. If the replacement that - results is not a valid character string literal, the behavior is undefined. The character - string literal corresponding to an empty argument is "".

Placemarker - preprocessing tokens are handled specially: concatenation of two placemarkers results in - a single placemarker preprocessing token, and concatenation of a placemarker with a - non-placemarker preprocessing token results in the non-placemarker preprocessing token. - If the result is not a valid preprocessing token, the behavior is undefined. The resulting - token is available for further macro replacement. The order of evaluation of ## operators - is unspecified. -4 EXAMPLE In the following fragment: - #define hash_hash # ## # - #define mkstr(a) # a - #define in_between(a) mkstr(a) - #define join(c, d) in_between(c hash_hash d) - char p[] = join(x, y); // equivalent to - // char p[] = "x ## y"; - The expansion produces, at various stages: - join(x, y) - in_between(x hash_hash y) - in_between(x ## y) - mkstr(x ## y) - "x ## y" - In other words, expanding hash_hash produces a new token, consisting of two adjacent sharp signs, but - this new token is not the ## operator. - - - 173) Placemarker preprocessing tokens do not appear in the syntax because they are temporary entities that - exist only within translation phase 4. - -[page 168] (Contents) - - 6.10.3.4 Rescanning and further replacement -1 After all parameters in the replacement list have been substituted and # and ## - processing has taken place, all placemarker preprocessing tokens are removed. The - resulting preprocessing token sequence is then rescanned, along with all subsequent - preprocessing tokens of the source file, for more macro names to replace. -2 If the name of the macro being replaced is found during this scan of the replacement list - (not including the rest of the source file's preprocessing tokens), it is not replaced. - Furthermore, if any nested replacements encounter the name of the macro being replaced, - it is not replaced. These nonreplaced macro name preprocessing tokens are no longer - available for further replacement even if they are later (re)examined in contexts in which - that macro name preprocessing token would otherwise have been replaced. -3 The resulting completely macro-replaced preprocessing token sequence is not processed - as a preprocessing directive even if it resembles one, but all pragma unary operator - expressions within it are then processed as specified in 6.10.9 below. - 6.10.3.5 Scope of macro definitions -1 A macro definition lasts (independent of block structure) until a corresponding #undef - directive is encountered or (if none is encountered) until the end of the preprocessing - translation unit. Macro definitions have no significance after translation phase 4. -2 A preprocessing directive of the form - # undef identifier new-line - causes the specified identifier no longer to be defined as a macro name. It is ignored if - the specified identifier is not currently defined as a macro name. -3 EXAMPLE 1 The simplest use of this facility is to define a ''manifest constant'', as in - #define TABSIZE 100 - int table[TABSIZE]; - -4 EXAMPLE 2 The following defines a function-like macro whose value is the maximum of its arguments. - It has the advantages of working for any compatible types of the arguments and of generating in-line code - without the overhead of function calling. It has the disadvantages of evaluating one or the other of its - arguments a second time (including side effects) and generating more code than a function if invoked - several times.

Library - 7.1 Introduction - 7.1.1 Definitions of terms -1 A string is a contiguous sequence of characters terminated by and including the first null - character. The term multibyte string is sometimes used instead to emphasize special - processing given to multibyte characters contained in the string or to avoid confusion - with a wide string. A pointer to a string is a pointer to its initial (lowest addressed) - character. The length of a string is the number of bytes preceding the null character and - the value of a string is the sequence of the values of the contained characters, in order. -2 The decimal-point character is the character used by functions that convert floating-point - numbers to or from character sequences to denote the beginning of the fractional part of - such character sequences.180) It is represented in the text and examples by a period, but - may be changed by the setlocale function. -3 A null wide character is a wide character with code value zero. -4 A wide string is a contiguous sequence of wide characters terminated by and including - the first null wide character. A pointer to a wide string is a pointer to its initial (lowest - addressed) wide character. The length of a wide string is the number of wide characters - preceding the null wide character and the value of a wide string is the sequence of code - values of the contained wide characters, in order. -5 A shift sequence is a contiguous sequence of bytes within a multibyte string that - (potentially) causes a change in shift state (see 5.2.1.2). A shift sequence shall not have a - corresponding wide character; it is instead taken to be an adjunct to an adjacent multibyte - character.181) - Forward references: character handling (7.4), the setlocale function (7.11.1.1). - - - - - 180) The functions that make use of the decimal-point character are the numeric conversion functions - (7.22.1, 7.28.4.1) and the formatted input/output functions (7.21.6, 7.28.2). - 181) For state-dependent encodings, the values for MB_CUR_MAX and MB_LEN_MAX shall thus be large - enough to count all the bytes in any complete multibyte character plus at least one adjacent shift - sequence of maximum length.

If a function argument is - described as being an array, the pointer actually passed to the function shall have a value - such that all address computations and accesses to objects (that would be valid if the - pointer did point to the first element of such an array) are in fact valid. Any function - declared in a header may be additionally implemented as a function-like macro defined in - the header, so if a library function is declared explicitly when its header is included, one - of the techniques shown below can be used to ensure the declaration is not affected by - such a macro. Any macro definition of a function can be suppressed locally by enclosing - the name of the function in parentheses, because the name is then not followed by the left - parenthesis that indicates expansion of a macro function name. For the same syntactic - reason, it is permitted to take the address of a library function even if it is also defined as - a macro.185) The use of #undef to remove any macro definition will also ensure that an - actual function is referred to. Any invocation of a library function that is implemented as - a macro shall expand to code that evaluates each of its arguments exactly once, fully - protected by parentheses where necessary, so it is generally safe to use arbitrary - expressions as arguments.186) Likewise, those function-like macros described in the - following subclauses may be invoked in an expression anywhere a function with a - compatible return type could be called.187) All object-like macros listed as expanding to - - - 185) This means that an implementation shall provide an actual function for each library function, even if it - also provides a macro for that function. - 186) Such macros might not contain the sequence points that the corresponding function calls do. - 187) Because external identifiers and some macro names beginning with an underscore are reserved, - implementations may provide special semantics for such names. For example, the identifier - _BUILTIN_abs could be used to indicate generation of in-line code for the abs function. Thus, the - appropriate header could specify - #define abs(x) _BUILTIN_abs(x) - for a compiler whose code generator will accept it. - In this manner, a user desiring to guarantee that a given library function such as abs will be a genuine - function may write - #undef abs - whether the implementation's header provides a macro implementation of abs or a built-in - implementation.

+ A postfix expression that consists of a parenthesized type name followed by a brace- + enclosed list of initializers is a compound literal. It provides an unnamed object whose + value is given by the initializer list.99) + + + +
+ If the type name specifies an array of unknown size, the size is determined by the + initializer list as specified in 6.7.9, and the type of the compound literal is that of the + completed array type. Otherwise (when the type name specifies an object type), the type + of the compound literal is that specified by the type name. In either case, the result is an + lvalue. +
+ The value of the compound literal is that of an unnamed object initialized by the + initializer list. If the compound literal occurs outside the body of a function, the object + has static storage duration; otherwise, it has automatic storage duration associated with + the enclosing block. +
+ All the semantic rules for initializer lists in 6.7.9 also apply to compound literals.100) +
+ String literals, and compound literals with const-qualified types, need not designate + distinct objects.101) +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The file scope definition +
+ int *p = (int []){2, 4}; ++ initializes p to point to the first element of an array of two ints, the first having the value two and the + second, four. The expressions in this compound literal are required to be constant. The unnamed object + has static storage duration. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 In contrast, in +
+ void f(void) + { + int *p; + /*...*/ + p = (int [2]){*p}; + /*...*/ + } ++ p is assigned the address of the first element of an array of two ints, the first having the value previously + pointed to by p and the second, zero. The expressions in this compound literal need not be constant. The + unnamed object has automatic storage duration. + +
+ EXAMPLE 3 Initializers with designations can be combined with compound literals. Structure objects + created using compound literals can be passed to functions without depending on member order: +
+ drawline((struct point){.x=1, .y=1}, + (struct point){.x=3, .y=4}); ++ Or, if drawline instead expected pointers to struct point: + + + + +
+ drawline(&(struct point){.x=1, .y=1}, + &(struct point){.x=3, .y=4}); ++ +

+ EXAMPLE 5 The following three expressions have different meanings: +
+ "/tmp/fileXXXXXX" + (char []){"/tmp/fileXXXXXX"} + (const char []){"/tmp/fileXXXXXX"} ++ The first always has static storage duration and has type array of char, but need not be modifiable; the last + two have automatic storage duration when they occur within the body of a function, and the first of these + two is modifiable. + +
+ EXAMPLE 6 Like string literals, const-qualified compound literals can be placed into read-only memory + and can even be shared. For example, +
+ (const char []){"abc"} == "abc" ++ might yield 1 if the literals' storage is shared. + +
+ EXAMPLE 7 Since compound literals are unnamed, a single compound literal cannot specify a circularly + linked object. For example, there is no way to write a self-referential compound literal that could be used + as the function argument in place of the named object endless_zeros below: +
+ struct int_list { int car; struct int_list *cdr; }; + struct int_list endless_zeros = {0, &endless_zeros}; + eval(endless_zeros); ++ +
+ EXAMPLE 8 Each compound literal creates only a single object in a given scope: +
+ struct s { int i; }; + int f (void) + { + struct s *p = 0, *q; + int j = 0; + again: + q = p, p = &((struct s){ j++ }); + if (j < 2) goto again; + return p == q && q->i == 1; + } ++ The function f() always returns the value 1. +
+ Note that if an iteration statement were used instead of an explicit goto and a labeled statement, the + lifetime of the unnamed object would be the body of the loop only, and on entry next time around p would + have an indeterminate value, which would result in undefined behavior. + +

Semantics +
+ The sizeof operator yields the size (in bytes) of its operand, which may be an + expression or the parenthesized name of a type. The size is determined from the type of + the operand. The result is an integer. If the type of the operand is a variable length array + type, the operand is evaluated; otherwise, the operand is not evaluated and the result is an + integer constant. +
+ The alignof operator yields the alignment requirement of its operand type. The result + is an integer constant. When applied to an array type, the result is the alignment + requirement of the element type. +
+ When sizeof is applied to an operand that has type char, unsigned char, or + signed char, (or a qualified version thereof) the result is 1. When applied to an + operand that has array type, the result is the total number of bytes in the array.103) When + applied to an operand that has structure or union type, the result is the total number of + bytes in such an object, including internal and trailing padding. +
+ The value of the result of both operators is implementation-defined, and its type (an + unsigned integer type) is size_t, defined in <stddef.h> (and other headers). +
+ EXAMPLE 1 A principal use of the sizeof operator is in communication with routines such as storage + allocators and I/O systems. A storage-allocation function might accept a size (in bytes) of an object to + allocate and return a pointer to void. For example: +
+ extern void *alloc(size_t); + double *dp = alloc(sizeof *dp); ++ The implementation of the alloc function should ensure that its return value is aligned suitably for + conversion to a pointer to double. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 Another use of the sizeof operator is to compute the number of elements in an array: +
+ sizeof array / sizeof array[0] ++ +
+ EXAMPLE 3 In this example, the size of a variable length array is computed and returned from a + function: +
+ #include <stddef.h> ++ + + + +
+ size_t fsize3(int n) + { + char b[n+3]; // variable length array + return sizeof b; // execution time sizeof + } + int main() + { + size_t size; + size = fsize3(10); // fsize3 returns 13 + return 0; + } ++ +

106) Another way to approach pointer arithmetic is first to convert the pointer(s) to character pointer(s): In + this scheme the integer expression added to or subtracted from the converted pointer is first multiplied + by the size of the object originally pointed to, and the resulting pointer is converted back to the + original type. For pointer subtraction, the result of the difference between the character pointers is + similarly divided by the size of the object originally pointed to. + When viewed in this way, an implementation need only provide one extra byte (which may overlap + another object in the program) just after the end of the object in order to satisfy the ''one past the last + element'' requirements. + + +

It might expand to a modifiable lvalue - resulting from a function call (for example, *errno()). - 202) Thus, a program that uses errno for error checking should set it to zero before a library function call, - then inspect it before a subsequent library function call. Of course, a library function can save the - value of errno on entry and then set it to zero, as long as the original value is restored if errno's - value is still zero just before the return. - 203) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.3). - -[page 204] (Contents) - - 7.6 Floating-point environment <fenv.h> -1 The header <fenv.h> defines several macros, and declares types and functions that - provide access to the floating-point environment. The floating-point environment refers - collectively to any floating-point status flags and control modes supported by the - implementation.204) A floating-point status flag is a system variable whose value is set - (but never cleared) when a floating-point exception is raised, which occurs as a side effect - of exceptional floating-point arithmetic to provide auxiliary information.205) A floating- - point control mode is a system variable whose value may be set by the user to affect the - subsequent behavior of floating-point arithmetic. -2 The floating-point environment has thread storage duration. The initial state for a - thread's floating-point environment is the current state of the floating-point environment - of the thread that creates it at the time of creation. -3 Certain programming conventions support the intended model of use for the floating- - point environment:206) - -- a function call does not alter its caller's floating-point control modes, clear its caller's - floating-point status flags, nor depend on the state of its caller's floating-point status - flags unless the function is so documented; - -- a function call is assumed to require default floating-point control modes, unless its - documentation promises otherwise; - -- a function call is assumed to have the potential for raising floating-point exceptions, - unless its documentation promises otherwise. -4 The type - fenv_t - represents the entire floating-point environment. -5 The type - fexcept_t - represents the floating-point status flags collectively, including any status the - implementation associates with the flags. - - - 204) This header is designed to support the floating-point exception status flags and directed-rounding - control modes required by IEC 60559, and other similar floating-point state information. It is also - designed to facilitate code portability among all systems. - 205) A floating-point status flag is not an object and can be set more than once within an expression. - 206) With these conventions, a programmer can safely assume default floating-point control modes (or be - unaware of them). The responsibilities associated with accessing the floating-point environment fall - on the programmer or program that does so explicitly. - -[page 205] (Contents) - -6 Each of the macros - FE_DIVBYZERO - FE_INEXACT - FE_INVALID - FE_OVERFLOW - FE_UNDERFLOW - is defined if and only if the implementation supports the floating-point exception by - means of the functions in 7.6.2.207) Additional implementation-defined floating-point - exceptions, with macro definitions beginning with FE_ and an uppercase letter, may also - be specified by the implementation. The defined macros expand to integer constant - expressions with values such that bitwise ORs of all combinations of the macros result in - distinct values, and furthermore, bitwise ANDs of all combinations of the macros result in - zero.208) -7 The macro - FE_ALL_EXCEPT - is simply the bitwise OR of all floating-point exception macros defined by the - implementation. If no such macros are defined, FE_ALL_EXCEPT shall be defined as 0. -8 Each of the macros - FE_DOWNWARD - FE_TONEAREST - FE_TOWARDZERO - FE_UPWARD - is defined if and only if the implementation supports getting and setting the represented - rounding direction by means of the fegetround and fesetround functions. - Additional implementation-defined rounding directions, with macro definitions beginning - with FE_ and an uppercase letter, may also be specified by the implementation. The - defined macros expand to integer constant expressions whose values are distinct - nonnegative values.209) -9 The macro - - - - 207) The implementation supports a floating-point exception if there are circumstances where a call to at - least one of the functions in 7.6.2, using the macro as the appropriate argument, will succeed. It is not - necessary for all the functions to succeed all the time. - 208) The macros should be distinct powers of two. - 209) Even though the rounding direction macros may expand to constants corresponding to the values of - FLT_ROUNDS, they are not required to do so. - -[page 206] (Contents) - - FE_DFL_ENV - represents the default floating-point environment -- the one installed at program startup - -- and has type ''pointer to const-qualified fenv_t''. It can be used as an argument to - <fenv.h> functions that manage the floating-point environment. -10 Additional implementation-defined environments, with macro definitions beginning with - FE_ and an uppercase letter, and having type ''pointer to const-qualified fenv_t'', may - also be specified by the implementation. - 7.6.1 The FENV_ACCESS pragma - Synopsis -1 #include <fenv.h> - #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS on-off-switch - Description -2 The FENV_ACCESS pragma provides a means to inform the implementation when a - program might access the floating-point environment to test floating-point status flags or - run under non-default floating-point control modes.210) The pragma shall occur either - outside external declarations or preceding all explicit declarations and statements inside a - compound statement. When outside external declarations, the pragma takes effect from - its occurrence until another FENV_ACCESS pragma is encountered, or until the end of - the translation unit. When inside a compound statement, the pragma takes effect from its - occurrence until another FENV_ACCESS pragma is encountered (including within a - nested compound statement), or until the end of the compound statement; at the end of a - compound statement the state for the pragma is restored to its condition just before the - compound statement. If this pragma is used in any other context, the behavior is - undefined. If part of a program tests floating-point status flags, sets floating-point control - modes, or runs under non-default mode settings, but was translated with the state for the - FENV_ACCESS pragma ''off'', the behavior is undefined. The default state (''on'' or - ''off'') for the pragma is implementation-defined. (When execution passes from a part of - the program translated with FENV_ACCESS ''off'' to a part translated with - FENV_ACCESS ''on'', the state of the floating-point status flags is unspecified and the - floating-point control modes have their default settings.) - - - - - 210) The purpose of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is to allow certain optimizations that could subvert flag - tests and mode changes (e.g., global common subexpression elimination, code motion, and constant - folding). In general, if the state of FENV_ACCESS is ''off'', the translator can assume that default - modes are in effect and the flags are not tested. - -[page 207] (Contents) - -3 EXAMPLE - #include <fenv.h> - void f(double x) - { - #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON - void g(double); - void h(double); - /* ... */ - g(x + 1); - h(x + 1); - /* ... */ - } -4 If the function g might depend on status flags set as a side effect of the first x + 1, or if the second - x + 1 might depend on control modes set as a side effect of the call to function g, then the program shall - contain an appropriately placed invocation of #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON.211) - - 7.6.2 Floating-point exceptions -1 The following functions provide access to the floating-point status flags.212) The int - input argument for the functions represents a subset of floating-point exceptions, and can - be zero or the bitwise OR of one or more floating-point exception macros, for example - FE_OVERFLOW | FE_INEXACT. For other argument values the behavior of these - functions is undefined. - 7.6.2.1 The feclearexcept function - Synopsis -1 #include <fenv.h> - int feclearexcept(int excepts); - Description -2 The feclearexcept function attempts to clear the supported floating-point exceptions - represented by its argument. - Returns -3 The feclearexcept function returns zero if the excepts argument is zero or if all - the specified exceptions were successfully cleared. Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value. - - - 211) The side effects impose a temporal ordering that requires two evaluations of x + 1. On the other - hand, without the #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON pragma, and assuming the default state is - ''off'', just one evaluation of x + 1 would suffice. - 212) The functions fetestexcept, feraiseexcept, and feclearexcept support the basic - abstraction of flags that are either set or clear. An implementation may endow floating-point status - flags with more information -- for example, the address of the code which first raised the floating- - point exception; the functions fegetexceptflag and fesetexceptflag deal with the full - content of flags. - -[page 208] (Contents) - - 7.6.2.2 The fegetexceptflag function - Synopsis -1 #include <fenv.h> - int fegetexceptflag(fexcept_t *flagp, - int excepts); - Description -2 The fegetexceptflag function attempts to store an implementation-defined - representation of the states of the floating-point status flags indicated by the argument - excepts in the object pointed to by the argument flagp. - Returns -3 The fegetexceptflag function returns zero if the representation was successfully - stored. Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value. - 7.6.2.3 The feraiseexcept function - Synopsis -1 #include <fenv.h> - int feraiseexcept(int excepts); - Description -2 The feraiseexcept function attempts to raise the supported floating-point exceptions - represented by its argument.213) The order in which these floating-point exceptions are - raised is unspecified, except as stated in F.8.6. Whether the feraiseexcept function - additionally raises the ''inexact'' floating-point exception whenever it raises the - ''overflow'' or ''underflow'' floating-point exception is implementation-defined. - Returns -3 The feraiseexcept function returns zero if the excepts argument is zero or if all - the specified exceptions were successfully raised. Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value. - - - - - 213) The effect is intended to be similar to that of floating-point exceptions raised by arithmetic operations. - Hence, enabled traps for floating-point exceptions raised by this function are taken. The specification - in F.8.6 is in the same spirit. - -[page 209] (Contents) - - 7.6.2.4 The fesetexceptflag function - Synopsis -1 #include <fenv.h> - int fesetexceptflag(const fexcept_t *flagp, - int excepts); - Description -2 The fesetexceptflag function attempts to set the floating-point status flags - indicated by the argument excepts to the states stored in the object pointed to by - flagp. The value of *flagp shall have been set by a previous call to - fegetexceptflag whose second argument represented at least those floating-point - exceptions represented by the argument excepts.

+ An integer constant expression117) shall have integer type and shall only have operands + that are integer constants, enumeration constants, character constants, sizeof + expressions whose results are integer constants, and floating constants that are the + immediate operands of casts. Cast operators in an integer constant expression shall only + convert arithmetic types to integer types, except as part of an operand to the sizeof + operator. +
+ More latitude is permitted for constant expressions in initializers. Such a constant + expression shall be, or evaluate to, one of the following: +
+ An arithmetic constant expression shall have arithmetic type and shall only have + operands that are integer constants, floating constants, enumeration constants, character + constants, and sizeof expressions. Cast operators in an arithmetic constant expression + shall only convert arithmetic types to arithmetic types, except as part of an operand to a + sizeof operator whose result is an integer constant. +
+ An address constant is a null pointer, a pointer to an lvalue designating an object of static + storage duration, or a pointer to a function designator; it shall be created explicitly using + the unary & operator or an integer constant cast to pointer type, or implicitly by the use of + an expression of array or function type. The array-subscript [] and member-access . + and -> operators, the address & and indirection * unary operators, and pointer casts may + be used in the creation of an address constant, but the value of an object shall not be + accessed by use of these operators. +
+ An implementation may accept other forms of constant expressions. +

+ A struct-declaration that does not declare an anonymous structure or anonymous union + shall contain a struct-declarator-list. + +
+ A structure or union shall not contain a member with incomplete or function type (hence, + a structure shall not contain an instance of itself, but may contain a pointer to an instance + of itself), except that the last member of a structure with more than one named member + may have incomplete array type; such a structure (and any union containing, possibly + recursively, a member that is such a structure) shall not be a member of a structure or an + element of an array. +

+ A bit-field shall have a type that is a qualified or unqualified version of _Bool, signed + int, unsigned int, or some other implementation-defined type. It is + implementation-defined whether atomic types are permitted. +
Semantics +
+ As discussed in 6.2.5, a structure is a type consisting of a sequence of members, whose + storage is allocated in an ordered sequence, and a union is a type consisting of a sequence + of members whose storage overlap. +
+ Structure and union specifiers have the same form. The keywords struct and union + indicate that the type being specified is, respectively, a structure type or a union type. +
+ The presence of a struct-declaration-list in a struct-or-union-specifier declares a new type, + within a translation unit. The struct-declaration-list is a sequence of declarations for the + members of the structure or union. If the struct-declaration-list contains no named + members, no anonymous structures, and no anonymous unions, the behavior is undefined. + The type is incomplete until immediately after the } that terminates the list, and complete + thereafter. +
+ A member of a structure or union may have any complete object type other than a + variably modified type.123) In addition, a member may be declared to consist of a + specified number of bits (including a sign bit, if any). Such a member is called a + bit-field;124) its width is preceded by a colon. +
+ A bit-field is interpreted as having a signed or unsigned integer type consisting of the + specified number of bits.125) If the value 0 or 1 is stored into a nonzero-width bit-field of + + + type _Bool, the value of the bit-field shall compare equal to the value stored; a _Bool + bit-field has the semantics of a _Bool. +
+ An implementation may allocate any addressable storage unit large enough to hold a bit- + field. If enough space remains, a bit-field that immediately follows another bit-field in a + structure shall be packed into adjacent bits of the same unit. If insufficient space remains, + whether a bit-field that does not fit is put into the next unit or overlaps adjacent units is + implementation-defined. The order of allocation of bit-fields within a unit (high-order to + low-order or low-order to high-order) is implementation-defined. The alignment of the + addressable storage unit is unspecified. +
+ A bit-field declaration with no declarator, but only a colon and a width, indicates an + unnamed bit-field.126) As a special case, a bit-field structure member with a width of 0 + indicates that no further bit-field is to be packed into the unit in which the previous bit- + field, if any, was placed. +
+ An unnamed member of structure type with no tag is called an anonymous structure; an + unnamed member of union type with no tag is called an anonymous union. The members + of an anonymous structure or union are considered to be members of the containing + structure or union. This applies recursively if the containing structure or union is also + anonymous. +
+ Each non-bit-field member of a structure or union object is aligned in an implementation- + defined manner appropriate to its type. +
+ Within a structure object, the non-bit-field members and the units in which bit-fields + reside have addresses that increase in the order in which they are declared. A pointer to a + structure object, suitably converted, points to its initial member (or if that member is a + bit-field, then to the unit in which it resides), and vice versa. There may be unnamed + padding within a structure object, but not at its beginning. +
+ The size of a union is sufficient to contain the largest of its members. The value of at + most one of the members can be stored in a union object at any time. A pointer to a + union object, suitably converted, points to each of its members (or if a member is a bit- + field, then to the unit in which it resides), and vice versa. +
+ There may be unnamed padding at the end of a structure or union. +
+ As a special case, the last element of a structure with more than one named member may + have an incomplete array type; this is called a flexible array member. In most situations, + + + + the flexible array member is ignored. In particular, the size of the structure is as if the + flexible array member were omitted except that it may have more trailing padding than + the omission would imply. However, when a . (or ->) operator has a left operand that is + (a pointer to) a structure with a flexible array member and the right operand names that + member, it behaves as if that member were replaced with the longest array (with the same + element type) that would not make the structure larger than the object being accessed; the + offset of the array shall remain that of the flexible array member, even if this would differ + from that of the replacement array. If this array would have no elements, it behaves as if + it had one element but the behavior is undefined if any attempt is made to access that + element or to generate a pointer one past it. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The following illustrates anonymous structures and unions: +
+ struct v { + union { // anonymous union + struct { int i, j; }; // anonymous structure + struct { long k, l; } w; + }; + int m; + } v1; + v1.i = 2; // valid + v1.k = 3; // invalid: inner structure is not anonymous + v1.w.k = 5; // valid ++ +
+ EXAMPLE 2 After the declaration: +
+ struct s { int n; double d[]; }; ++ the structure struct s has a flexible array member d. A typical way to use this is: +
+ int m = /* some value */; + struct s *p = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + sizeof (double [m])); ++ and assuming that the call to malloc succeeds, the object pointed to by p behaves, for most purposes, as if + p had been declared as: +
+ struct { int n; double d[m]; } *p; ++ (there are circumstances in which this equivalence is broken; in particular, the offsets of member d might + not be the same). +
+ Following the above declaration: +
+ struct s t1 = { 0 }; // valid + struct s t2 = { 1, { 4.2 }}; // invalid + t1.n = 4; // valid + t1.d[0] = 4.2; // might be undefined behavior ++ The initialization of t2 is invalid (and violates a constraint) because struct s is treated as if it did not + contain member d. The assignment to t1.d[0] is probably undefined behavior, but it is possible that +
+ sizeof (struct s) >= offsetof(struct s, d) + sizeof (double) ++ in which case the assignment would be legitimate. Nevertheless, it cannot appear in strictly conforming + code. + +
+ After the further declaration: +
+ struct ss { int n; }; ++ the expressions: +
+ sizeof (struct s) >= sizeof (struct ss) + sizeof (struct s) >= offsetof(struct s, d) ++ are always equal to 1. +
+ If sizeof (double) is 8, then after the following code is executed: +
+ struct s *s1; + struct s *s2; + s1 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 64); + s2 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 46); ++ and assuming that the calls to malloc succeed, the objects pointed to by s1 and s2 behave, for most + purposes, as if the identifiers had been declared as: +
+ struct { int n; double d[8]; } *s1; + struct { int n; double d[5]; } *s2; ++
+ Following the further successful assignments: +
+ s1 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 10); + s2 = malloc(sizeof (struct s) + 6); ++ they then behave as if the declarations were: +
+ struct { int n; double d[1]; } *s1, *s2; ++ and: +
+ double *dp; + dp = &(s1->d[0]); // valid + *dp = 42; // valid + dp = &(s2->d[0]); // valid + *dp = 42; // undefined behavior ++
+ The assignment: +
+ *s1 = *s2; ++ only copies the member n; if any of the array elements are within the first sizeof (struct s) bytes + of the structure, they might be copied or simply overwritten with indeterminate values. + +

+ EXAMPLE 1 This mechanism allows declaration of a self-referential structure. +

With + these declarations, the expression sp->left refers to the left struct tnode pointer of the object to + which sp points; the expression s.right->count designates the count member of the right struct + tnode pointed to from s. +
+ The following alternative formulation uses the typedef mechanism: +

It is not + needed, for example, when a typedef name is declared to be a specifier for a structure or union, or + when a pointer to or a function returning a structure or union is being declared. (See incomplete types + in 6.2.5.) The specification has to be complete before such a function is called or defined. + +
130) If there is no identifier, the type can, within the translation unit, only be referred to by the declaration + of which it is a part. Of course, when the declaration is of a typedef name, subsequent declarations + can make use of that typedef name to declare objects having the specified structure, union, or + enumerated type. + +

+ The type name in an atomic type specifier shall not refer to an array type, a function type, + an atomic type, or a qualified type. +

Constraints +
+ Types other than pointer types whose referenced type is an object type shall not be + restrict-qualified. +
+ The type modified by the _Atomic qualifier shall not be an array type or a function + type. +
Semantics +
+ The properties associated with qualified types are meaningful only for expressions that + are lvalues.132) +
+ If the same qualifier appears more than once in the same specifier-qualifier-list, either + directly or via one or more typedefs, the behavior is the same as if it appeared only + once. If other qualifiers appear along with the _Atomic qualifier in a specifier-qualifier- + list, the resulting type is the so-qualified atomic type. +
+ If an attempt is made to modify an object defined with a const-qualified type through use + of an lvalue with non-const-qualified type, the behavior is undefined. If an attempt is + made to refer to an object defined with a volatile-qualified type through use of an lvalue + with non-volatile-qualified type, the behavior is undefined.133) +
+ An object that has volatile-qualified type may be modified in ways unknown to the + implementation or have other unknown side effects. Therefore any expression referring + to such an object shall be evaluated strictly according to the rules of the abstract machine, + as described in 5.1.2.3. Furthermore, at every sequence point the value last stored in the + object shall agree with that prescribed by the abstract machine, except as modified by the + + + + + + unknown factors mentioned previously.134) What constitutes an access to an object that + has volatile-qualified type is implementation-defined. +
+ An object that is accessed through a restrict-qualified pointer has a special association + with that pointer. This association, defined in 6.7.3.1 below, requires that all accesses to + that object use, directly or indirectly, the value of that particular pointer.135) The intended + use of the restrict qualifier (like the register storage class) is to promote + optimization, and deleting all instances of the qualifier from all preprocessing translation + units composing a conforming program does not change its meaning (i.e., observable + behavior). +
+ If the specification of an array type includes any type qualifiers, the element type is so- + qualified, not the array type. If the specification of a function type includes any type + qualifiers, the behavior is undefined.136) +
+ For two qualified types to be compatible, both shall have the identically qualified version + of a compatible type; the order of type qualifiers within a list of specifiers or qualifiers + does not affect the specified type. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 An object declared +
+ extern const volatile int real_time_clock; ++ may be modifiable by hardware, but cannot be assigned to, incremented, or decremented. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 The following declarations and expressions illustrate the behavior when type qualifiers + modify an aggregate type: +
+ const struct s { int mem; } cs = { 1 }; + struct s ncs; // the object ncs is modifiable + typedef int A[2][3]; + const A a = {{4, 5, 6}, {7, 8, 9}}; // array of array of const int + int *pi; + const int *pci; + ncs = cs; // valid + cs = ncs; // violates modifiable lvalue constraint for = + pi = &ncs.mem; // valid + pi = &cs.mem; // violates type constraints for = + pci = &cs.mem; // valid + pi = a[0]; // invalid: a[0] has type ''const int *'' ++ + + + +
+ EXAMPLE 3 The declaration +
+ _Atomic volatile int *p; ++ specifies that p has the type ''pointer to volatile atomic int'', a pointer to a volatile-qualified atomic type. + + +
Footnotes +
132) The implementation may place a const object that is not volatile in a read-only region of + storage. Moreover, the implementation need not allocate storage for such an object if its address is + never used. + +
133) This applies to those objects that behave as if they were defined with qualified types, even if they are + never actually defined as objects in the program (such as an object at a memory-mapped input/output + address). + +
134) A volatile declaration may be used to describe an object corresponding to a memory-mapped + input/output port or an object accessed by an asynchronously interrupting function. Actions on + objects so declared shall not be ''optimized out'' by an implementation or reordered except as + permitted by the rules for evaluating expressions. + +
135) For example, a statement that assigns a value returned by malloc to a single pointer establishes this + association between the allocated object and the pointer. + +
136) Both of these can occur through the use of typedefs. + + +

+ Let D be a declaration of an ordinary identifier that provides a means of designating an + object P as a restrict-qualified pointer to type T. +
+ If D appears inside a block and does not have storage class extern, let B denote the + block. If D appears in the list of parameter declarations of a function definition, let B + denote the associated block. Otherwise, let B denote the block of main (or the block of + whatever function is called at program startup in a freestanding environment). +
+ In what follows, a pointer expression E is said to be based on object P if (at some + sequence point in the execution of B prior to the evaluation of E) modifying P to point to + a copy of the array object into which it formerly pointed would change the value of E.137) + Note that ''based'' is defined only for expressions with pointer types. +
+ During each execution of B, let L be any lvalue that has &L based on P. If L is used to + access the value of the object X that it designates, and X is also modified (by any means), + then the following requirements apply: T shall not be const-qualified. Every other lvalue + used to access the value of X shall also have its address based on P. Every access that + modifies X shall be considered also to modify P, for the purposes of this subclause. If P + is assigned the value of a pointer expression E that is based on another restricted pointer + object P2, associated with block B2, then either the execution of B2 shall begin before + the execution of B, or the execution of B2 shall end prior to the assignment. If these + requirements are not met, then the behavior is undefined. +
+ Here an execution of B means that portion of the execution of the program that would + correspond to the lifetime of an object with scalar type and automatic storage duration + associated with B. +
+ A translator is free to ignore any or all aliasing implications of uses of restrict. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The file scope declarations +
+ int * restrict a; + int * restrict b; + extern int c[]; ++ assert that if an object is accessed using one of a, b, or c, and that object is modified anywhere in the + program, then it is never accessed using either of the other two. + + + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 The function parameter declarations in the following example +
+ void f(int n, int * restrict p, int * restrict q) + { + while (n-- > 0) + *p++ = *q++; + } ++ assert that, during each execution of the function, if an object is accessed through one of the pointer + parameters, then it is not also accessed through the other. +
+ The benefit of the restrict qualifiers is that they enable a translator to make an effective dependence + analysis of function f without examining any of the calls of f in the program. The cost is that the + programmer has to examine all of those calls to ensure that none give undefined behavior. For example, the + second call of f in g has undefined behavior because each of d[1] through d[49] is accessed through + both p and q. +
+ void g(void) + { + extern int d[100]; + f(50, d + 50, d); // valid + f(50, d + 1, d); // undefined behavior + } ++ +
+ EXAMPLE 3 The function parameter declarations +
+ void h(int n, int * restrict p, int * restrict q, int * restrict r) + { + int i; + for (i = 0; i < n; i++) + p[i] = q[i] + r[i]; + } ++ illustrate how an unmodified object can be aliased through two restricted pointers. In particular, if a and b + are disjoint arrays, a call of the form h(100, a, b, b) has defined behavior, because array b is not + modified within function h. + +
+ EXAMPLE 4 The rule limiting assignments between restricted pointers does not distinguish between a + function call and an equivalent nested block. With one exception, only ''outer-to-inner'' assignments + between restricted pointers declared in nested blocks have defined behavior. + +
+ { + int * restrict p1; + int * restrict q1; + p1 = q1; // undefined behavior + { + int * restrict p2 = p1; // valid + int * restrict q2 = q1; // valid + p1 = q2; // undefined behavior + p2 = q2; // undefined behavior + } + } ++
+ The one exception allows the value of a restricted pointer to be carried out of the block in which it (or, more + precisely, the ordinary identifier used to designate it) is declared when that block finishes execution. For + example, this permits new_vector to return a vector. +
+ typedef struct { int n; float * restrict v; } vector; + vector new_vector(int n) + { + vector t; + t.n = n; + t.v = malloc(n * sizeof (float)); + return t; + } ++ + +
Footnotes +
137) In other words, E depends on the value of P itself rather than on the value of an object referenced + indirectly through P. For example, if identifier p has type (int **restrict), then the pointer + expressions p and p+1 are based on the restricted pointer object designated by p, but the pointer + expressions *p and p[1] are not. + + +

+ function-specifier: + inline + _Noreturn ++
Constraints +
+ Function specifiers shall be used only in the declaration of an identifier for a function. +
+ An inline definition of a function with external linkage shall not contain a definition of a + modifiable object with static or thread storage duration, and shall not contain a reference + to an identifier with internal linkage. +
+ In a hosted environment, no function specifier(s) shall appear in a declaration of main. +
Semantics +
+ A function specifier may appear more than once; the behavior is the same as if it + appeared only once. +
+ A function declared with an inline function specifier is an inline function. Making a * + function an inline function suggests that calls to the function be as fast as possible.138) + The extent to which such suggestions are effective is implementation-defined.139) + + + + + +
+ Any function with internal linkage can be an inline function. For a function with external + linkage, the following restrictions apply: If a function is declared with an inline + function specifier, then it shall also be defined in the same translation unit. If all of the + file scope declarations for a function in a translation unit include the inline function + specifier without extern, then the definition in that translation unit is an inline + definition. An inline definition does not provide an external definition for the function, + and does not forbid an external definition in another translation unit. An inline definition + provides an alternative to an external definition, which a translator may use to implement + any call to the function in the same translation unit. It is unspecified whether a call to the + function uses the inline definition or the external definition.140) +
+ A function declared with a _Noreturn function specifier shall not return to its caller. +
Recommended practice +
+ The implementation should produce a diagnostic message for a function declared with a + _Noreturn function specifier that appears to be capable of returning to its caller. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The declaration of an inline function with external linkage can result in either an external + definition, or a definition available for use only within the translation unit. A file scope declaration with + extern creates an external definition. The following example shows an entire translation unit. +
+ inline double fahr(double t) + { + return (9.0 * t) / 5.0 + 32.0; + } + inline double cels(double t) + { + return (5.0 * (t - 32.0)) / 9.0; + } + extern double fahr(double); // creates an external definition + double convert(int is_fahr, double temp) + { + /* A translator may perform inline substitutions */ + return is_fahr ? cels(temp) : fahr(temp); + } ++
+ Note that the definition of fahr is an external definition because fahr is also declared with extern, but + the definition of cels is an inline definition. Because cels has external linkage and is referenced, an + external definition has to appear in another translation unit (see 6.9); the inline definition and the external + definition are distinct and either may be used for the call. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 + + + + + +
+ _Noreturn void f () { + abort(); // ok + } + _Noreturn void g (int i) { // causes undefined behavior if i <= 0 + if (i > 0) abort(); + } ++ +

138) By using, for example, an alternative to the usual function call mechanism, such as ''inline + substitution''. Inline substitution is not textual substitution, nor does it create a new function. + Therefore, for example, the expansion of a macro used within the body of the function uses the + definition it had at the point the function body appears, and not where the function is called; and + identifiers refer to the declarations in scope where the body occurs. Likewise, the function has a + single address, regardless of the number of inline definitions that occur in addition to the external + definition. + +
139) For example, an implementation might never perform inline substitution, or might only perform inline + substitutions to calls in the scope of an inline declaration. + +
140) Since an inline definition is distinct from the corresponding external definition and from any other + corresponding inline definitions in other translation units, all corresponding objects with static storage + duration are also distinct in each of the definitions. + + +

+ Each declarator declares one identifier, and asserts that when an operand of the same + form as the declarator appears in an expression, it designates a function or object with the + scope, storage duration, and type indicated by the declaration specifiers. +
+ A full declarator is a declarator that is not part of another declarator. The end of a full + declarator is a sequence point. If, in the nested sequence of declarators in a full + + declarator, there is a declarator specifying a variable length array type, the type specified + by the full declarator is said to be variably modified. Furthermore, any type derived by + declarator type derivation from a variably modified type is itself variably modified. +
+ In the following subclauses, consider a declaration +
+ T D1 ++ where T contains the declaration specifiers that specify a type T (such as int) and D1 is + a declarator that contains an identifier ident. The type specified for the identifier ident in + the various forms of declarator is described inductively using this notation. +
+ If, in the declaration ''T D1'', D1 has the form +
+ identifier ++ then the type specified for ident is T . +
+ If, in the declaration ''T D1'', D1 has the form +

For each type qualifier in the list, ident is a so-qualified pointer. +
+ For two pointer types to be compatible, both shall be identically qualified and both shall + be pointers to compatible types. +

+ The declaration of the constant pointer constant_ptr may be clarified by including a definition for the + type ''pointer to int''. +

Constraints +
+ In addition to optional type qualifiers and the keyword static, the [ and ] may delimit + an expression or *. If they delimit an expression (which specifies the size of an array), the + expression shall have an integer type. If the expression is a constant expression, it shall + have a value greater than zero. The element type shall not be an incomplete or function + type. The optional type qualifiers and the keyword static shall appear only in a + declaration of a function parameter with an array type, and then only in the outermost + array type derivation. +
+ If an identifier is declared as having a variably modified type, it shall be an ordinary + identifier (as defined in 6.2.3), have no linkage, and have either block scope or function + prototype scope. If an identifier is declared to be an object with static or thread storage + duration, it shall not have a variable length array type. +

+ If the size is not present, the array type is an incomplete type. If the size is * instead of + being an expression, the array type is a variable length array type of unspecified size, + which can only be used in declarations or type names with function prototype scope;143) + + + such arrays are nonetheless complete types. If the size is an integer constant expression + and the element type has a known constant size, the array type is not a variable length + array type; otherwise, the array type is a variable length array type. (Variable length + arrays are a conditional feature that implementations need not support; see 6.10.8.3.) +
+ If the size is an expression that is not an integer constant expression: if it occurs in a + declaration at function prototype scope, it is treated as if it were replaced by *; otherwise, + each time it is evaluated it shall have a value greater than zero. The size of each instance + of a variable length array type does not change during its lifetime. Where a size + expression is part of the operand of a sizeof operator and changing the value of the + size expression would not affect the result of the operator, it is unspecified whether or not + the size expression is evaluated. +
+ For two array types to be compatible, both shall have compatible element types, and if + both size specifiers are present, and are integer constant expressions, then both size + specifiers shall have the same constant value. If the two array types are used in a context + which requires them to be compatible, it is undefined behavior if the two size specifiers + evaluate to unequal values. +

+ If the list terminates with an ellipsis (, ...), no information about the number or types + of the parameters after the comma is supplied.144) +
+ The special case of an unnamed parameter of type void as the only item in the list + specifies that the function has no parameters. +
+ If, in a parameter declaration, an identifier can be treated either as a typedef name or as a + parameter name, it shall be taken as a typedef name. +
+ If the function declarator is not part of a definition of that function, parameters may have + incomplete type and may use the [*] notation in their sequences of declarator specifiers + to specify variable length array types. +
+ The storage-class specifier in the declaration specifiers for a parameter declaration, if + present, is ignored unless the declared parameter is one of the members of the parameter + type list for a function definition. +

If one type has a parameter type list and the other type is + specified by a function definition that contains a (possibly empty) identifier list, both shall + agree in the number of parameters, and the type of each prototype parameter shall be + compatible with the type that results from the application of the default argument + promotions to the type of the corresponding identifier. (In the determination of type + compatibility and of a composite type, each parameter declared with function or array + type is taken as having the adjusted type and each parameter declared with qualified type + is taken as having the unqualified version of its declared type.) +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The declaration +
+ int f(void), *fip(), (*pfi)(); ++ declares a function f with no parameters returning an int, a function fip with no parameter specification + returning a pointer to an int, and a pointer pfi to a function with no parameter specification returning an + int. It is especially useful to compare the last two. The binding of *fip() is *(fip()), so that the + declaration suggests, and the same construction in an expression requires, the calling of a function fip, + and then using indirection through the pointer result to yield an int. In the declarator (*pfi)(), the + extra parentheses are necessary to indicate that indirection through a pointer to a function yields a function + designator, which is then used to call the function; it returns an int. +
+ If the declaration occurs outside of any function, the identifiers have file scope and external linkage. If the + declaration occurs inside a function, the identifiers of the functions f and fip have block scope and either + internal or external linkage (depending on what file scope declarations for these identifiers are visible), and + the identifier of the pointer pfi has block scope and no linkage. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 The declaration +
+ int (*apfi[3])(int *x, int *y); ++ declares an array apfi of three pointers to functions returning int. Each of these functions has two + parameters that are pointers to int.

+ In several contexts, it is necessary to specify a type. This is accomplished using a type + name, which is syntactically a declaration for a function or an object of that type that + omits the identifier.147) +

+ If a typedef name specifies a variably modified type then it shall have block scope. +
Semantics +
+ In a declaration whose storage-class specifier is typedef, each declarator defines an + identifier to be a typedef name that denotes the type specified for the identifier in the way + described in 6.7.6. Any array size expressions associated with variable length array + declarators are evaluated each time the declaration of the typedef name is reached in the + order of execution. A typedef declaration does not introduce a new type, only a + synonym for the type so specified. That is, in the following declarations: +
+ typedef T type_ident; + type_ident D; ++ type_ident is defined as a typedef name with the type specified by the declaration + specifiers in T (known as T ), and the identifier in D has the type ''derived-declarator- + type-list T '' where the derived-declarator-type-list is specified by the declarators of D. A + typedef name shares the same name space as other identifiers declared in ordinary + declarators. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 After +
+ typedef int MILES, KLICKSP(); + typedef struct { double hi, lo; } range; ++ the constructions +
+ MILES distance; + extern KLICKSP *metricp; + range x; + range z, *zp; ++ are all valid declarations. The type of distance is int, that of metricp is ''pointer to function with no + parameter specification returning int'', and that of x and z is the specified structure; zp is a pointer to + such a structure. The object distance has a type compatible with any other int object. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 After the declarations +
+ typedef struct s1 { int x; } t1, *tp1; + typedef struct s2 { int x; } t2, *tp2; ++ type t1 and the type pointed to by tp1 are compatible. Type t1 is also compatible with type struct + s1, but not compatible with the types struct s2, t2, the type pointed to by tp2, or int. + +
+ EXAMPLE 3 The following obscure constructions +
+ typedef signed int t; + typedef int plain; + struct tag { + unsigned t:4; + const t:5; + plain r:5; + }; ++ declare a typedef name t with type signed int, a typedef name plain with type int, and a structure + with three bit-field members, one named t that contains values in the range [0, 15], an unnamed const- + qualified bit-field which (if it could be accessed) would contain values in either the range [-15, +15] or + [-16, +15], and one named r that contains values in one of the ranges [0, 31], [-15, +15], or [-16, +15]. + (The choice of range is implementation-defined.) The first two bit-field declarations differ in that + unsigned is a type specifier (which forces t to be the name of a structure member), while const is a + type qualifier (which modifies t which is still visible as a typedef name). If these declarations are followed + in an inner scope by +
+ t f(t (t)); + long t; ++ then a function f is declared with type ''function returning signed int with one unnamed parameter + with type pointer to function returning signed int with one unnamed parameter with type signed + int'', and an identifier t with type long int. + +
+ EXAMPLE 4 On the other hand, typedef names can be used to improve code readability. All three of the + following declarations of the signal function specify exactly the same type, the first without making use + of any typedef names. +
+ typedef void fv(int), (*pfv)(int); + void (*signal(int, void (*)(int)))(int); + fv *signal(int, fv *); + pfv signal(int, pfv); ++ +
+ EXAMPLE 5 If a typedef name denotes a variable length array type, the length of the array is fixed at the + time the typedef name is defined, not each time it is used: + +

In these names, N represents the - width of the type as described in 7.20.1.

Most synopses specify a family of functions consisting of a principal - function with one or more double parameters, a double return value, or both; and - other functions with the same name but with f and l suffixes, which are corresponding - functions with float and long double parameters, return values, or both.223) - Integer arithmetic functions and conversion functions are discussed later. -2 The types - float_t - double_t - are floating types at least as wide as float and double, respectively, and such that - double_t is at least as wide as float_t. If FLT_EVAL_METHOD equals 0, - float_t and double_t are float and double, respectively; if - FLT_EVAL_METHOD equals 1, they are both double; if FLT_EVAL_METHOD equals - 2, they are both long double; and for other values of FLT_EVAL_METHOD, they are - otherwise implementation-defined.224) -3 The macro - HUGE_VAL - expands to a positive double constant expression, not necessarily representable as a - float. The macros - HUGE_VALF - HUGE_VALL - are respectively float and long double analogs of HUGE_VAL.225) -4 The macro - INFINITY - expands to a constant expression of type float representing positive or unsigned - infinity, if available; else to a positive constant of type float that overflows at - - - - 223) Particularly on systems with wide expression evaluation, a <math.h> function might pass arguments - and return values in wider format than the synopsis prototype indicates. - 224) The types float_t and double_t are intended to be the implementation's most efficient types at - least as wide as float and double, respectively. For FLT_EVAL_METHOD equal 0, 1, or 2, the - type float_t is the narrowest type used by the implementation to evaluate floating expressions. - 225) HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, and HUGE_VALL can be positive infinities in an implementation that - supports infinities. - -[page 230] (Contents) - - translation time.226) -5 The macro - NAN - is defined if and only if the implementation supports quiet NaNs for the float type. It - expands to a constant expression of type float representing a quiet NaN. -6 The number classification macros - FP_INFINITE - FP_NAN - FP_NORMAL - FP_SUBNORMAL - FP_ZERO - represent the mutually exclusive kinds of floating-point values. They expand to integer - constant expressions with distinct values. Additional implementation-defined floating- - point classifications, with macro definitions beginning with FP_ and an uppercase letter, - may also be specified by the implementation. -7 The macro - FP_FAST_FMA - is optionally defined. If defined, it indicates that the fma function generally executes - about as fast as, or faster than, a multiply and an add of double operands.227) The - macros - FP_FAST_FMAF - FP_FAST_FMAL - are, respectively, float and long double analogs of FP_FAST_FMA. If defined, - these macros expand to the integer constant 1. -8 The macros - FP_ILOGB0 - FP_ILOGBNAN - expand to integer constant expressions whose values are returned by ilogb(x) if x is - zero or NaN, respectively. The value of FP_ILOGB0 shall be either INT_MIN or - -INT_MAX. The value of FP_ILOGBNAN shall be either INT_MAX or INT_MIN. - - - 226) In this case, using INFINITY will violate the constraint in 6.4.4 and thus require a diagnostic. - 227) Typically, the FP_FAST_FMA macro is defined if and only if the fma function is implemented - directly with a hardware multiply-add instruction. Software implementations are expected to be - substantially slower. - -[page 231] (Contents) - -9 The macros - MATH_ERRNO - MATH_ERREXCEPT - expand to the integer constants 1 and 2, respectively; the macro - math_errhandling - expands to an expression that has type int and the value MATH_ERRNO, - MATH_ERREXCEPT, or the bitwise OR of both. The value of math_errhandling is - constant for the duration of the program. It is unspecified whether - math_errhandling is a macro or an identifier with external linkage. If a macro - definition is suppressed or a program defines an identifier with the name - math_errhandling, the behavior is undefined. If the expression - math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT can be nonzero, the implementation - shall define the macros FE_DIVBYZERO, FE_INVALID, and FE_OVERFLOW in - <fenv.h>. - 7.12.1 Treatment of error conditions -1 The behavior of each of the functions in <math.h> is specified for all representable - values of its input arguments, except where stated otherwise. Each function shall execute - as if it were a single operation without raising SIGFPE and without generating any of the - floating-point exceptions ''invalid'', ''divide-by-zero'', or ''overflow'' except to reflect - the result of the function. -2 For all functions, a domain error occurs if an input argument is outside the domain over - which the mathematical function is defined. The description of each function lists any - required domain errors; an implementation may define additional domain errors, provided - that such errors are consistent with the mathematical definition of the function.228) On a - domain error, the function returns an implementation-defined value; if the integer - expression math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero, the integer expression - errno acquires the value EDOM; if the integer expression math_errhandling & - MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, the ''invalid'' floating-point exception is raised. -3 Similarly, a pole error (also known as a singularity or infinitary) occurs if the - mathematical function has an exact infinite result as the finite input argument(s) are - approached in the limit (for example, log(0.0)). The description of each function lists - any required pole errors; an implementation may define additional pole errors, provided - that such errors are consistent with the mathematical definition of the function. On a pole - error, the function returns an implementation-defined value; if the integer expression - - - 228) In an implementation that supports infinities, this allows an infinity as an argument to be a domain - error if the mathematical domain of the function does not include the infinity. - -[page 232] (Contents) - - math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero, the integer expression errno - acquires the value ERANGE; if the integer expression math_errhandling & - MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, the ''divide-by-zero'' floating-point exception is raised. -4 Likewise, a range error occurs if the mathematical result of the function cannot be - represented in an object of the specified type, due to extreme magnitude. -5 A floating result overflows if the magnitude of the mathematical result is finite but so - large that the mathematical result cannot be represented without extraordinary roundoff - error in an object of the specified type. If a floating result overflows and default rounding - is in effect, then the function returns the value of the macro HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, or * - HUGE_VALL according to the return type, with the same sign as the correct value of the - function; if the integer expression math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero, - the integer expression errno acquires the value ERANGE; if the integer expression - math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, the ''overflow'' floating- - point exception is raised. -6 The result underflows if the magnitude of the mathematical result is so small that the - mathematical result cannot be represented, without extraordinary roundoff error, in an - object of the specified type.229) If the result underflows, the function returns an - implementation-defined value whose magnitude is no greater than the smallest - normalized positive number in the specified type; if the integer expression - math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero, whether errno acquires the - value ERANGE is implementation-defined; if the integer expression - math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, whether the ''underflow'' - floating-point exception is raised is implementation-defined. -7 If a domain, pole, or range error occurs and the integer expression - math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is zero,230) then errno shall either be set to - the value corresponding to the error or left unmodified. If no such error occurs, errno - shall be left unmodified regardless of the setting of math_errhandling. - - - - - 229) The term underflow here is intended to encompass both ''gradual underflow'' as in IEC 60559 and - also ''flush-to-zero'' underflow. - 230) Math errors are being indicated by the floating-point exception flags rather than by errno. - -[page 233] (Contents) - - 7.12.2 The FP_CONTRACT pragma - Synopsis -1 #include <math.h> - #pragma STDC FP_CONTRACT on-off-switch - Description -2 The FP_CONTRACT pragma can be used to allow (if the state is ''on'') or disallow (if the - state is ''off'') the implementation to contract expressions (6.5). Each pragma can occur - either outside external declarations or preceding all explicit declarations and statements - inside a compound statement. When outside external declarations, the pragma takes - effect from its occurrence until another FP_CONTRACT pragma is encountered, or until - the end of the translation unit. When inside a compound statement, the pragma takes - effect from its occurrence until another FP_CONTRACT pragma is encountered - (including within a nested compound statement), or until the end of the compound - statement; at the end of a compound statement the state for the pragma is restored to its - condition just before the compound statement. If this pragma is used in any other - context, the behavior is undefined. The default state (''on'' or ''off'') for the pragma is - implementation-defined. - 7.12.3 Classification macros -1 In the synopses in this subclause, real-floating indicates that the argument shall be an - expression of real floating type. - 7.12.3.1 The fpclassify macro - Synopsis -1 #include <math.h> - int fpclassify(real-floating x); - Description -2 The fpclassify macro classifies its argument value as NaN, infinite, normal, - subnormal, zero, or into another implementation-defined category.

Constraints +
+ No initializer shall attempt to provide a value for an object not contained within the entity + being initialized. +
+ The type of the entity to be initialized shall be an array of unknown size or a complete + object type that is not a variable length array type. +
+ All the expressions in an initializer for an object that has static or thread storage duration + shall be constant expressions or string literals. +
+ If the declaration of an identifier has block scope, and the identifier has external or + internal linkage, the declaration shall have no initializer for the identifier. +
+ If a designator has the form +
+ [ constant-expression ] ++ then the current object (defined below) shall have array type and the expression shall be + an integer constant expression. If the array is of unknown size, any nonnegative value is + valid. +
+ If a designator has the form +
+ . identifier ++ then the current object (defined below) shall have structure or union type and the + identifier shall be the name of a member of that type. + +
Semantics +
+ An initializer specifies the initial value stored in an object. +
+ Except where explicitly stated otherwise, for the purposes of this subclause unnamed + members of objects of structure and union type do not participate in initialization. + Unnamed members of structure objects have indeterminate value even after initialization. +
+ If an object that has automatic storage duration is not initialized explicitly, its value is + indeterminate. If an object that has static or thread storage duration is not initialized + explicitly, then: +
+ The initializer for a scalar shall be a single expression, optionally enclosed in braces. The + initial value of the object is that of the expression (after conversion); the same type + constraints and conversions as for simple assignment apply, taking the type of the scalar + to be the unqualified version of its declared type. +
+ The rest of this subclause deals with initializers for objects that have aggregate or union + type. +
+ The initializer for a structure or union object that has automatic storage duration shall be + either an initializer list as described below, or a single expression that has compatible + structure or union type. In the latter case, the initial value of the object, including + unnamed members, is that of the expression. +
+ An array of character type may be initialized by a character string literal or UTF-8 string + literal, optionally enclosed in braces. Successive bytes of the string literal (including the + terminating null character if there is room or if the array is of unknown size) initialize the + elements of the array. +
+ An array with element type compatible with a qualified or unqualified version of + wchar_t may be initialized by a wide string literal, optionally enclosed in braces. + Successive wide characters of the wide string literal (including the terminating null wide + character if there is room or if the array is of unknown size) initialize the elements of the + array. +
+ Otherwise, the initializer for an object that has aggregate or union type shall be a brace- + enclosed list of initializers for the elements or named members. + +
+ Each brace-enclosed initializer list has an associated current object. When no + designations are present, subobjects of the current object are initialized in order according + to the type of the current object: array elements in increasing subscript order, structure + members in declaration order, and the first named member of a union.148) In contrast, a + designation causes the following initializer to begin initialization of the subobject + described by the designator. Initialization then continues forward in order, beginning + with the next subobject after that described by the designator.149) +
+ Each designator list begins its description with the current object associated with the + closest surrounding brace pair. Each item in the designator list (in order) specifies a + particular member of its current object and changes the current object for the next + designator (if any) to be that member.150) The current object that results at the end of the + designator list is the subobject to be initialized by the following initializer. +
+ The initialization shall occur in initializer list order, each initializer provided for a + particular subobject overriding any previously listed initializer for the same subobject;151) + all subobjects that are not initialized explicitly shall be initialized implicitly the same as + objects that have static storage duration. +
+ If the aggregate or union contains elements or members that are aggregates or unions, + these rules apply recursively to the subaggregates or contained unions. If the initializer of + a subaggregate or contained union begins with a left brace, the initializers enclosed by + that brace and its matching right brace initialize the elements or members of the + subaggregate or the contained union. Otherwise, only enough initializers from the list are + taken to account for the elements or members of the subaggregate or the first member of + the contained union; any remaining initializers are left to initialize the next element or + member of the aggregate of which the current subaggregate or contained union is a part. +
+ If there are fewer initializers in a brace-enclosed list than there are elements or members + of an aggregate, or fewer characters in a string literal used to initialize an array of known + size than there are elements in the array, the remainder of the aggregate shall be + initialized implicitly the same as objects that have static storage duration. + + + + +
+ If an array of unknown size is initialized, its size is determined by the largest indexed + element with an explicit initializer. The array type is completed at the end of its + initializer list. +
+ The evaluations of the initialization list expressions are indeterminately sequenced with + respect to one another and thus the order in which any side effects occur is + unspecified.152) +
+ EXAMPLE 1 Provided that <complex.h> has been #included, the declarations +
+ int i = 3.5; + double complex c = 5 + 3 * I; ++ define and initialize i with the value 3 and c with the value 5.0 + i3.0. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 The declaration +
+ int x[] = { 1, 3, 5 }; ++ defines and initializes x as a one-dimensional array object that has three elements, as no size was specified + and there are three initializers. + +
+ EXAMPLE 3 The declaration +
+ int y[4][3] = { + { 1, 3, 5 }, + { 2, 4, 6 }, + { 3, 5, 7 }, + }; ++ is a definition with a fully bracketed initialization: 1, 3, and 5 initialize the first row of y (the array object + y[0]), namely y[0][0], y[0][1], and y[0][2]. Likewise the next two lines initialize y[1] and + y[2]. The initializer ends early, so y[3] is initialized with zeros. Precisely the same effect could have + been achieved by +
+ int y[4][3] = { + 1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6, 3, 5, 7 + }; ++ The initializer for y[0] does not begin with a left brace, so three items from the list are used. Likewise the + next three are taken successively for y[1] and y[2]. + +
+ EXAMPLE 4 The declaration +
+ int z[4][3] = { + { 1 }, { 2 }, { 3 }, { 4 } + }; ++ initializes the first column of z as specified and initializes the rest with zeros. + +
+ EXAMPLE 5 The declaration +
+ struct { int a[3], b; } w[] = { { 1 }, 2 }; ++ is a definition with an inconsistently bracketed initialization. It defines an array with two element + + + + + structures: w[0].a[0] is 1 and w[1].a[0] is 2; all the other elements are zero. + +
+ EXAMPLE 6 The declaration +
+ short q[4][3][2] = { + { 1 }, + { 2, 3 }, + { 4, 5, 6 } + }; ++ contains an incompletely but consistently bracketed initialization. It defines a three-dimensional array + object: q[0][0][0] is 1, q[1][0][0] is 2, q[1][0][1] is 3, and 4, 5, and 6 initialize + q[2][0][0], q[2][0][1], and q[2][1][0], respectively; all the rest are zero. The initializer for + q[0][0] does not begin with a left brace, so up to six items from the current list may be used. There is + only one, so the values for the remaining five elements are initialized with zero. Likewise, the initializers + for q[1][0] and q[2][0] do not begin with a left brace, so each uses up to six items, initializing their + respective two-dimensional subaggregates. If there had been more than six items in any of the lists, a + diagnostic message would have been issued. The same initialization result could have been achieved by: +
+ short q[4][3][2] = { + 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, + 2, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, + 4, 5, 6 + }; ++ or by: +
+ short q[4][3][2] = { + { + { 1 }, + }, + { + { 2, 3 }, + }, + { + { 4, 5 }, + { 6 }, + } + }; ++ in a fully bracketed form. +
+ Note that the fully bracketed and minimally bracketed forms of initialization are, in general, less likely to + cause confusion. + +
+ EXAMPLE 7 One form of initialization that completes array types involves typedef names. Given the + declaration +
+ typedef int A[]; // OK - declared with block scope ++ the declaration +
+ A a = { 1, 2 }, b = { 3, 4, 5 }; ++ is identical to +
+ int a[] = { 1, 2 }, b[] = { 3, 4, 5 }; ++ due to the rules for incomplete types. + +
+ EXAMPLE 8 The declaration +
+ char s[] = "abc", t[3] = "abc"; ++ defines ''plain'' char array objects s and t whose elements are initialized with character string literals. + This declaration is identical to +
+ char s[] = { 'a', 'b', 'c', '\0' }, + t[] = { 'a', 'b', 'c' }; ++ The contents of the arrays are modifiable. On the other hand, the declaration +
+ char *p = "abc"; ++ defines p with type ''pointer to char'' and initializes it to point to an object with type ''array of char'' + with length 4 whose elements are initialized with a character string literal. If an attempt is made to use p to + modify the contents of the array, the behavior is undefined. + +
+ EXAMPLE 9 Arrays can be initialized to correspond to the elements of an enumeration by using + designators: +
+ enum { member_one, member_two }; + const char *nm[] = { + [member_two] = "member two", + [member_one] = "member one", + }; ++ +
+ EXAMPLE 10 Structure members can be initialized to nonzero values without depending on their order: +
+ div_t answer = { .quot = 2, .rem = -1 }; ++ +
+ EXAMPLE 11 Designators can be used to provide explicit initialization when unadorned initializer lists + might be misunderstood: +
+ struct { int a[3], b; } w[] = + { [0].a = {1}, [1].a[0] = 2 }; ++ +
+ EXAMPLE 12 Space can be ''allocated'' from both ends of an array by using a single designator: +
+ int a[MAX] = { + 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, [MAX-5] = 8, 6, 4, 2, 0 + }; ++
+ In the above, if MAX is greater than ten, there will be some zero-valued elements in the middle; if it is less + than ten, some of the values provided by the first five initializers will be overridden by the second five. + +
+ EXAMPLE 13 Any member of a union can be initialized: +
+ union { /* ... */ } u = { .any_member = 42 }; ++ +

148) If the initializer list for a subaggregate or contained union does not begin with a left brace, its + subobjects are initialized as usual, but the subaggregate or contained union does not become the + current object: current objects are associated only with brace-enclosed initializer lists. + +
149) After a union member is initialized, the next object is not the next member of the union; instead, it is + the next subobject of an object containing the union. + +
150) Thus, a designator can only specify a strict subobject of the aggregate or union that is associated with + the surrounding brace pair. Note, too, that each separate designator list is independent. + +
151) Any initializer for the subobject which is overridden and so not used to initialize that subobject might + not be evaluated at all. + +
152) In particular, the evaluation order need not be the same as the order of subobject initialization. + + +

Semantics +
+ A selection statement selects among a set of statements depending on the value of a + controlling expression. +

+ The controlling expression of an if statement shall have scalar type. +
Semantics +
+ In both forms, the first substatement is executed if the expression compares unequal to 0. + In the else form, the second substatement is executed if the expression compares equal + + to 0. If the first substatement is reached via a label, the second substatement is not + executed. +
+ An else is associated with the lexically nearest preceding if that is allowed by the + syntax. + +
Contents +
Constraints +
+ The controlling expression of a switch statement shall have integer type. +
+ If a switch statement has an associated case or default label within the scope of an + identifier with a variably modified type, the entire switch statement shall be within the + scope of that identifier.154) +
+ The expression of each case label shall be an integer constant expression and no two of + the case constant expressions in the same switch statement shall have the same value + after conversion. There may be at most one default label in a switch statement. + (Any enclosed switch statement may have a default label or case constant + expressions with values that duplicate case constant expressions in the enclosing + switch statement.) +
Semantics +
+ A switch statement causes control to jump to, into, or past the statement that is the + switch body, depending on the value of a controlling expression, and on the presence of a + default label and the values of any case labels on or in the switch body. A case or + default label is accessible only within the closest enclosing switch statement. +
+ The integer promotions are performed on the controlling expression. The constant + expression in each case label is converted to the promoted type of the controlling + expression. If a converted value matches that of the promoted controlling expression, + control jumps to the statement following the matched case label. Otherwise, if there is + a default label, control jumps to the labeled statement. If no converted case constant + expression matches and there is no default label, no part of the switch body is + executed. +

The names of the signal numbers reflect the following terms - (respectively): abort, floating-point exception, illegal instruction, interrupt, segmentation violation, - and termination. - -[page 264] (Contents) - - 7.14.1 Specify signal handling - 7.14.1.1 The signal function - Synopsis -1 #include <signal.h> - void (*signal(int sig, void (*func)(int)))(int); - Description -2 The signal function chooses one of three ways in which receipt of the signal number - sig is to be subsequently handled. If the value of func is SIG_DFL, default handling - for that signal will occur. If the value of func is SIG_IGN, the signal will be ignored. - Otherwise, func shall point to a function to be called when that signal occurs. An - invocation of such a function because of a signal, or (recursively) of any further functions - called by that invocation (other than functions in the standard library),248) is called a - signal handler. -3 When a signal occurs and func points to a function, it is implementation-defined - whether the equivalent of signal(sig, SIG_DFL); is executed or the - implementation prevents some implementation-defined set of signals (at least including - sig) from occurring until the current signal handling has completed; in the case of - SIGILL, the implementation may alternatively define that no action is taken. Then the - equivalent of (*func)(sig); is executed. If and when the function returns, if the - value of sig is SIGFPE, SIGILL, SIGSEGV, or any other implementation-defined - value corresponding to a computational exception, the behavior is undefined; otherwise - the program will resume execution at the point it was interrupted. -4 If the signal occurs as the result of calling the abort or raise function, the signal - handler shall not call the raise function. -5 If the signal occurs other than as the result of calling the abort or raise function, the - behavior is undefined if the signal handler refers to any object with static or thread - storage duration that is not a lock-free atomic object other than by assigning a value to an - object declared as volatile sig_atomic_t, or the signal handler calls any function - in the standard library other than the abort function, the _Exit function, the - quick_exit function, or the signal function with the first argument equal to the - signal number corresponding to the signal that caused the invocation of the handler. - Furthermore, if such a call to the signal function results in a SIG_ERR return, the - value of errno is indeterminate.249) - - - 248) This includes functions called indirectly via standard library functions (e.g., a SIGABRT handler - called via the abort function). - 249) If any signal is generated by an asynchronous signal handler, the behavior is undefined. - -[page 265] (Contents) - -6 At program startup, the equivalent of - signal(sig, SIG_IGN); - may be executed for some signals selected in an implementation-defined manner; the - equivalent of - signal(sig, SIG_DFL); - is executed for all other signals defined by the implementation. -7 The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the signal function. - Returns -8 If the request can be honored, the signal function returns the value of func for the - most recent successful call to signal for the specified signal sig. Otherwise, a value of - SIG_ERR is returned and a positive value is stored in errno. - Forward references: the abort function (7.22.4.1), the exit function (7.22.4.4), the - _Exit function (7.22.4.5), the quick_exit function (7.22.4.7). - 7.14.2 Send signal - 7.14.2.1 The raise function - Synopsis -1 #include <signal.h> - int raise(int sig); - Description -2 The raise function carries out the actions described in 7.14.1.1 for the signal sig.

It is - __alignas_is_defined - which expands to the integer constant 1. - - - - -[page 267] (Contents) - - 7.16 Variable arguments <stdarg.h> -1 The header <stdarg.h> declares a type and defines four macros, for advancing - through a list of arguments whose number and types are not known to the called function - when it is translated. -2 A function may be called with a variable number of arguments of varying types. As - described in 6.9.1, its parameter list contains one or more parameters. The rightmost - parameter plays a special role in the access mechanism, and will be designated parmN in - this description. -3 The type declared is - va_list - which is a complete object type suitable for holding information needed by the macros - va_start, va_arg, va_end, and va_copy. If access to the varying arguments is - desired, the called function shall declare an object (generally referred to as ap in this - subclause) having type va_list. The object ap may be passed as an argument to - another function; if that function invokes the va_arg macro with parameter ap, the - value of ap in the calling function is indeterminate and shall be passed to the va_end - macro prior to any further reference to ap.250) - 7.16.1 Variable argument list access macros -1 The va_start and va_arg macros described in this subclause shall be implemented - as macros, not functions. It is unspecified whether va_copy and va_end are macros or - identifiers declared with external linkage. If a macro definition is suppressed in order to - access an actual function, or a program defines an external identifier with the same name, - the behavior is undefined. Each invocation of the va_start and va_copy macros - shall be matched by a corresponding invocation of the va_end macro in the same - function. - 7.16.1.1 The va_arg macro - Synopsis -1 #include <stdarg.h> - type va_arg(va_list ap, type); - Description -2 The va_arg macro expands to an expression that has the specified type and the value of - the next argument in the call. The parameter ap shall have been initialized by the - va_start or va_copy macro (without an intervening invocation of the va_end - - 250) It is permitted to create a pointer to a va_list and pass that pointer to another function, in which - case the original function may make further use of the original list after the other function returns. - -[page 268] (Contents) - - macro for the same ap). Each invocation of the va_arg macro modifies ap so that the - values of successive arguments are returned in turn. The parameter type shall be a type - name specified such that the type of a pointer to an object that has the specified type can - be obtained simply by postfixing a * to type. If there is no actual next argument, or if - type is not compatible with the type of the actual next argument (as promoted according - to the default argument promotions), the behavior is undefined, except for the following - cases: - -- one type is a signed integer type, the other type is the corresponding unsigned integer - type, and the value is representable in both types; - -- one type is pointer to void and the other is a pointer to a character type. - Returns -3 The first invocation of the va_arg macro after that of the va_start macro returns the - value of the argument after that specified by parmN . Successive invocations return the - values of the remaining arguments in succession. - 7.16.1.2 The va_copy macro - Synopsis -1 #include <stdarg.h> - void va_copy(va_list dest, va_list src); - Description -2 The va_copy macro initializes dest as a copy of src, as if the va_start macro had - been applied to dest followed by the same sequence of uses of the va_arg macro as - had previously been used to reach the present state of src. Neither the va_copy nor - va_start macro shall be invoked to reinitialize dest without an intervening - invocation of the va_end macro for the same dest. - Returns -3 The va_copy macro returns no value. - 7.16.1.3 The va_end macro - Synopsis -1 #include <stdarg.h> - void va_end(va_list ap); - Description -2 The va_end macro facilitates a normal return from the function whose variable - argument list was referred to by the expansion of the va_start macro, or the function - containing the expansion of the va_copy macro, that initialized the va_list ap. The - va_end macro may modify ap so that it is no longer usable (without being reinitialized - -[page 269] (Contents) - - by the va_start or va_copy macro). If there is no corresponding invocation of the - va_start or va_copy macro, or if the va_end macro is not invoked before the - return, the behavior is undefined. - Returns -3 The va_end macro returns no value. - 7.16.1.4 The va_start macro - Synopsis -1 #include <stdarg.h> - void va_start(va_list ap, parmN); - Description -2 The va_start macro shall be invoked before any access to the unnamed arguments. -3 The va_start macro initializes ap for subsequent use by the va_arg and va_end - macros. Neither the va_start nor va_copy macro shall be invoked to reinitialize ap - without an intervening invocation of the va_end macro for the same ap. -4 The parameter parmN is the identifier of the rightmost parameter in the variable - parameter list in the function definition (the one just before the , ...). If the parameter - parmN is declared with the register storage class, with a function or array type, or - with a type that is not compatible with the type that results after application of the default - argument promotions, the behavior is undefined. - Returns -5 The va_start macro returns no value. -6 EXAMPLE 1 The function f1 gathers into an array a list of arguments that are pointers to strings (but not - more than MAXARGS arguments), then passes the array as a single argument to function f2.

The atomic_address atomic - type corresponds to the void * non-atomic type. - -- An M refers to the type of the other argument for arithmetic operations. For atomic - integer types, M is C. For atomic address types, M is ptrdiff_t. - -- The functions not ending in _explicit have the same semantics as the - corresponding _explicit function with memory_order_seq_cst for the - memory_order argument. -6 NOTE Many operations are volatile-qualified. The ''volatile as device register'' semantics have not - changed in the standard. This qualification means that volatility is preserved when applying these - operations to volatile objects. - - 7.17.2 Initialization - 7.17.2.1 The ATOMIC_VAR_INIT macro - Synopsis -1 #include <stdatomic.h> - #define ATOMIC_VAR_INIT(C value) - Description -2 The ATOMIC_VAR_INIT macro expands to a token sequence suitable for initializing an - atomic object of a type that is initialization-compatible with value. An atomic object - with automatic storage duration that is not explicitly initialized using - ATOMIC_VAR_INIT is initially in an indeterminate state; however, the default (zero) - initialization for objects with static or thread-local storage duration is guaranteed to - produce a valid state. -3 Concurrent access to the variable being initialized, even via an atomic operation, - constitutes a data race. -4 EXAMPLE - atomic_int guide = ATOMIC_VAR_INIT(42); - - 7.17.2.2 The atomic_init generic function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdatomic.h> - void atomic_init(volatile A *obj, C value); - Description -2 The atomic_init generic function initializes the atomic object pointed to by obj to - the value value, while also initializing any additional state that the implementation - might need to carry for the atomic object. - - - -[page 273] (Contents) - -3 Although this function initializes an atomic object, it does not avoid data races; - concurrent access to the variable being initialized, even via an atomic operation, - constitutes a data race. - Returns -4 The atomic_init generic function returns no value. -5 EXAMPLE - atomic_int guide; - atomic_init(&guide, 42); - - 7.17.3 Order and consistency -1 The enumerated type memory_order specifies the detailed regular (non-atomic) - memory synchronization operations as defined in 5.1.2.4 and may provide for operation - ordering. Its enumeration constants are as follows: - memory_order_relaxed - memory_order_consume - memory_order_acquire - memory_order_release - memory_order_acq_rel - memory_order_seq_cst -2 For memory_order_relaxed, no operation orders memory. -3 For memory_order_release, memory_order_acq_rel, and - memory_order_seq_cst, a store operation performs a release operation on the - affected memory location. -4 For memory_order_acquire, memory_order_acq_rel, and - memory_order_seq_cst, a load operation performs an acquire operation on the - affected memory location. -5 For memory_order_consume, a load operation performs a consume operation on the - affected memory location. -6 For memory_order_seq_cst, there shall be a single total order S on all operations, - consistent with the ''happens before'' order and modification orders for all affected - locations, such that each memory_order_seq_cst operation that loads a value - observes either the last preceding modification according to this order S, or the result of - an operation that is not memory_order_seq_cst. -7 NOTE 1 Although it is not explicitly required that S include lock operations, it can always be extended to - an order that does include lock and unlock operations, since the ordering between those is already included - in the ''happens before'' ordering. - -8 NOTE 2 Atomic operations specifying memory_order_relaxed are relaxed only with respect to - memory ordering. Implementations must still guarantee that any given atomic access to a particular atomic - -[page 274] (Contents) - - object be indivisible with respect to all other atomic accesses to that object. - -9 For an atomic operation B that reads the value of an atomic object M, if there is a - memory_order_seq_cst fence X sequenced before B, then B observes either the - last memory_order_seq_cst modification of M preceding X in the total order S or - a later modification of M in its modification order. -10 For atomic operations A and B on an atomic object M, where A modifies M and B takes - its value, if there is a memory_order_seq_cst fence X such that A is sequenced - before X and B follows X in S, then B observes either the effects of A or a later - modification of M in its modification order. -11 For atomic operations A and B on an atomic object M, where A modifies M and B takes - its value, if there are memory_order_seq_cst fences X and Y such that A is - sequenced before X, Y is sequenced before B, and X precedes Y in S, then B observes - either the effects of A or a later modification of M in its modification order. -12 Atomic read-modify-write operations shall always read the last value (in the modification - order) stored before the write associated with the read-modify-write operation. -13 An atomic store shall only store a value that has been computed from constants and - program input values by a finite sequence of program evaluations, such that each - evaluation observes the values of variables as computed by the last prior assignment in - the sequence.251) The ordering of evaluations in this sequence shall be such that - -- If an evaluation B observes a value computed by A in a different thread, then B does - not happen before A. - -- If an evaluation A is included in the sequence, then all evaluations that assign to the - same variable and happen before A are also included. -14 NOTE 3 The second requirement disallows ''out-of-thin-air'', or ''speculative'' stores of atomics when - relaxed atomics are used. Since unordered operations are involved, evaluations may appear in this - sequence out of thread order. For example, with x and y initially zero, - // Thread 1: - r1 = atomic_load_explicit(&y, memory_order_relaxed); - atomic_store_explicit(&x, r1, memory_order_relaxed); - - // Thread 2: - r2 = atomic_load_explicit(&x, memory_order_relaxed); - atomic_store_explicit(&y, 42, memory_order_relaxed); - is allowed to produce r1 == 42 && r2 == 42. The sequence of evaluations justifying this consists of: - - - - - 251) Among other implications, atomic variables shall not decay. - -[page 275] (Contents) - - atomic_store_explicit(&y, 42, memory_order_relaxed); - r1 = atomic_load_explicit(&y, memory_order_relaxed); - atomic_store_explicit(&x, r1, memory_order_relaxed); - r2 = atomic_load_explicit(&x, memory_order_relaxed); - On the other hand, - // Thread 1: - r1 = atomic_load_explicit(&y, memory_order_relaxed); - atomic_store_explicit(&x, r1, memory_order_relaxed); - - // Thread 2: - r2 = atomic_load_explicit(&x, memory_order_relaxed); - atomic_store_explicit(&y, r2, memory_order_relaxed); - is not allowed to produce r1 == 42 && r2 = 42, since there is no sequence of evaluations that results - in the computation of 42. In the absence of ''relaxed'' operations and read-modify-write operations with - weaker than memory_order_acq_rel ordering, the second requirement has no impact. - - Recommended practice -15 The requirements do not forbid r1 == 42 && r2 == 42 in the following example, - with x and y initially zero: - // Thread 1: - r1 = atomic_load_explicit(&x, memory_order_relaxed); - if (r1 == 42) - atomic_store_explicit(&y, r1, memory_order_relaxed); - - // Thread 2: - r2 = atomic_load_explicit(&y, memory_order_relaxed); - if (r2 == 42) - atomic_store_explicit(&x, 42, memory_order_relaxed); - However, this is not useful behavior, and implementations should not allow it. -16 Implementations should make atomic stores visible to atomic loads within a reasonable - amount of time. - 7.17.3.1 The kill_dependency macro - Synopsis -1 #include <stdatomic.h> - type kill_dependency(type y); - Description -2 The kill_dependency macro terminates a dependency chain; the argument does not - carry a dependency to the return value. - - - -[page 276] (Contents) - - Returns -3 The kill_dependency macro returns the value of y. - 7.17.4 Fences -1 This subclause introduces synchronization primitives called fences. Fences can have - acquire semantics, release semantics, or both. A fence with acquire semantics is called - an acquire fence; a fence with release semantics is called a release fence. -2 A release fence A synchronizes with an acquire fence B if there exist atomic operations - X and Y , both operating on some atomic object M, such that A is sequenced before X, X - modifies M, Y is sequenced before B, and Y reads the value written by X or a value - written by any side effect in the hypothetical release sequence X would head if it were a - release operation. -3 A release fence A synchronizes with an atomic operation B that performs an acquire - operation on an atomic object M if there exists an atomic operation X such that A is - sequenced before X, X modifies M, and B reads the value written by X or a value written - by any side effect in the hypothetical release sequence X would head if it were a release - operation. -4 An atomic operation A that is a release operation on an atomic object M synchronizes - with an acquire fence B if there exists some atomic operation X on M such that X is - sequenced before B and reads the value written by A or a value written by any side effect - in the release sequence headed by A. - 7.17.4.1 The atomic_thread_fence function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdatomic.h> - void atomic_thread_fence(memory_order order); - Description -2 Depending on the value of order, this operation: - -- has no effects, if order == memory_order_relaxed; - -- is an acquire fence, if order == memory_order_acquire or order == - memory_order_consume; - -- is a release fence, if order == memory_order_release; - -- is both an acquire fence and a release fence, if order == - memory_order_acq_rel; - -- is a sequentially consistent acquire and release fence, if order == - memory_order_seq_cst. - - -[page 277] (Contents) - - Returns -3 The atomic_thread_fence function returns no value. - 7.17.4.2 The atomic_signal_fence function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdatomic.h> - void atomic_signal_fence(memory_order order); - Description -2 Equivalent to atomic_thread_fence(order), except that ''synchronizes with'' - relationships are established only between a thread and a signal handler executed in the - same thread. -3 NOTE 1 The atomic_signal_fence function can be used to specify the order in which actions - performed by the thread become visible to the signal handler. - -4 NOTE 2 Compiler optimizations and reorderings of loads and stores are inhibited in the same way as with - atomic_thread_fence, but the hardware fence instructions that atomic_thread_fence would - have inserted are not emitted. - - Returns -5 The atomic_signal_fence function returns no value. - 7.17.5 Lock-free property -1 The atomic lock-free macros indicate the lock-free property of integer and address atomic - types. A value of 0 indicates that the type is never lock-free; a value of 1 indicates that - the type is sometimes lock-free; a value of 2 indicates that the type is always lock-free. -2 NOTE Operations that are lock-free should also be address-free. That is, atomic operations on the same - memory location via two different addresses will communicate atomically. The implementation should not - depend on any per-process state. This restriction enables communication via memory mapped into a - process more than once and memory shared between two processes. - - 7.17.5.1 The atomic_is_lock_free generic function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdatomic.h> - _Bool atomic_is_lock_free(atomic_type const volatile *obj); - Description -2 The atomic_is_lock_free generic function indicates whether or not the object - pointed to by obj is lock-free. atomic_type can be any atomic type. - Returns -3 The atomic_is_lock_free generic function returns nonzero (true) if and only if the - object's operations are lock-free. The result of a lock-free query on one object cannot be - -[page 278] (Contents) - - inferred from the result of a lock-free query on another object. - 7.17.6 Atomic integer and address types -1 For each line in the following table, the atomic type name is declared as the - corresponding direct type. - - - - -[page 279] (Contents) - - Atomic type name Direct type - atomic_char _Atomic char - atomic_schar _Atomic signed char - atomic_uchar _Atomic unsigned char - atomic_short _Atomic short - atomic_ushort _Atomic unsigned short - atomic_int _Atomic int - atomic_uint _Atomic unsigned int - atomic_long _Atomic long - atomic_ulong _Atomic unsigned long - atomic_llong _Atomic long long - atomic_ullong _Atomic unsigned long long - atomic_char16_t _Atomic char16_t - atomic_char32_t _Atomic char32_t - atomic_wchar_t _Atomic wchar_t - atomic_int_least8_t _Atomic int_least8_t - atomic_uint_least8_t _Atomic uint_least8_t - atomic_int_least16_t _Atomic int_least16_t - atomic_uint_least16_t _Atomic uint_least16_t - atomic_int_least32_t _Atomic int_least32_t - atomic_uint_least32_t _Atomic uint_least32_t - atomic_int_least64_t _Atomic int_least64_t - atomic_uint_least64_t _Atomic uint_least64_t - atomic_int_fast8_t _Atomic int_fast8_t - atomic_uint_fast8_t _Atomic uint_fast8_t - atomic_int_fast16_t _Atomic int_fast16_t - atomic_uint_fast16_t _Atomic uint_fast16_t - atomic_int_fast32_t _Atomic int_fast32_t - atomic_uint_fast32_t _Atomic uint_fast32_t - atomic_int_fast64_t _Atomic int_fast64_t - atomic_uint_fast64_t _Atomic uint_fast64_t - atomic_intptr_t _Atomic intptr_t - atomic_uintptr_t _Atomic uintptr_t - atomic_size_t _Atomic size_t - atomic_ptrdiff_t _Atomic ptrdiff_t - atomic_intmax_t _Atomic intmax_t - atomic_uintmax_t _Atomic uintmax_t -2 The semantics of the operations on these types are defined in 7.17.7. -3 The atomic_bool type provides an atomic boolean. - - -[page 280] (Contents) - -4 The atomic_address type provides atomic void * operations.

They should have the same size whenever possible, as it eases effort required - to port existing code. - - 7.17.7 Operations on atomic types -1 There are only a few kinds of operations on atomic types, though there are many - instances of those kinds. This subclause specifies each general kind. - 7.17.7.1 The atomic_store generic functions - Synopsis -1 #include <stdatomic.h> - void atomic_store(volatile A *object, C desired); - void atomic_store_explicit(volatile A *object, - C desired, memory_order order); - Description -2 The order argument shall not be memory_order_acquire, - memory_order_consume, nor memory_order_acq_rel. Atomically replace the - value pointed to by object with the value of desired. Memory is affected according - to the value of order. - Returns -3 The atomic_store generic functions return no value. - 7.17.7.2 The atomic_load generic functions - Synopsis -1 #include <stdatomic.h> - C atomic_load(volatile A *object); - C atomic_load_explicit(volatile A *object, - memory_order order); - Description -2 The order argument shall not be memory_order_release nor - memory_order_acq_rel. Memory is affected according to the value of order. - Returns - Atomically returns the value pointed to by object. - - - - -[page 281] (Contents) - - 7.17.7.3 The atomic_exchange generic functions - Synopsis -1 #include <stdatomic.h> - C atomic_exchange(volatile A *object, C desired); - C atomic_exchange_explicit(volatile A *object, - C desired, memory_order order); - Description -2 Atomically replace the value pointed to by object with desired. Memory is affected - according to the value of order. These operations are read-modify-write operations - (5.1.2.4). - Returns -3 Atomically returns the value pointed to by object immediately before the effects. - 7.17.7.4 The atomic_compare_exchange generic functions - Synopsis -1 #include <stdatomic.h> - _Bool atomic_compare_exchange_strong(volatile A *object, - C *expected, C desired); - _Bool atomic_compare_exchange_strong_explicit( - volatile A *object, C *expected, C desired, - memory_order success, memory_order failure); - _Bool atomic_compare_exchange_weak(volatile A *object, - C *expected, C desired); - _Bool atomic_compare_exchange_weak_explicit( - volatile A *object, C *expected, C desired, - memory_order success, memory_order failure); - Description -2 The failure argument shall not be memory_order_release nor - memory_order_acq_rel. The failure argument shall be no stronger than the - success argument. Atomically, compares the value pointed to by object for equality - with that in expected, and if true, replaces the value pointed to by object with - desired, and if false, updates the value in expected with the value pointed to by - object. Further, if the comparison is true, memory is affected according to the value of - success, and if the comparison is false, memory is affected according to the value of - failure. These operations are atomic read-modify-write operations (5.1.2.4). -3 NOTE 1 The effect of the compare-and-exchange operations is - - - - -[page 282] (Contents) - - if (*object == *expected) - *object = desired; - else - *expected = *object; - -4 The weak compare-and-exchange operations may fail spuriously, that is, return zero - while leaving the value pointed to by expected unchanged. -5 NOTE 2 This spurious failure enables implementation of compare-and-exchange on a broader class of - machines, e.g. load-locked store-conditional machines. - -6 EXAMPLE A consequence of spurious failure is that nearly all uses of weak compare-and-exchange will - be in a loop. - exp = atomic_load(&cur); - do { - des = function(exp); - } while (!atomic_compare_exchange_weak(&cur, &exp, des)); - When a compare-and-exchange is in a loop, the weak version will yield better performance on some - platforms. When a weak compare-and-exchange would require a loop and a strong one would not, the - strong one is preferable. - - Returns -7 The result of the comparison. - 7.17.7.5 The atomic_fetch and modify generic functions -1 The following operations perform arithmetic and bitwise computations. All of these - operations are applicable to an object of any atomic integer type. Only addition and - subtraction are applicable to atomic_address. None of these operations is applicable - to atomic_bool. The key, operator, and computation correspondence is: - key op computation - add + addition - sub - subtraction - or | bitwise inclusive or - xor ^ bitwise exclusive or - and & bitwise and - Synopsis -2 #include <stdatomic.h> - C atomic_fetch_key(volatile A *object, M operand); - C atomic_fetch_key_explicit(volatile A *object, - M operand, memory_order order); - Description -3 Atomically replaces the value pointed to by object with the result of the computation - applied to the value pointed to by object and the given operand. Memory is affected - according to the value of order. These operations are atomic read-modify-write -[page 283] (Contents) - - operations (5.1.2.4). For signed integer types, arithmetic is defined to use two's - complement representation with silent wrap-around on overflow; there are no undefined - results. For address types, the result may be an undefined address, but the operations - otherwise have no undefined behavior. - Returns -4 Atomically, the value pointed to by object immediately before the effects. -5 NOTE The operation of the atomic_fetch and modify generic functions are nearly equivalent to the - operation of the corresponding op= compound assignment operators. The only differences are that the - compound assignment operators are not guaranteed to operate atomically, and the value yielded by a - compound assignment operator is the updated value of the object, whereas the value returned by the - atomic_fetch and modify generic functions is the previous value of the atomic object. - - 7.17.8 Atomic flag type and operations -1 The atomic_flag type provides the classic test-and-set functionality. It has two - states, set and clear. -2 Operations on an object of type atomic_flag shall be lock free. -3 NOTE Hence the operations should also be address-free. No other type requires lock-free operations, so - the atomic_flag type is the minimum hardware-implemented type needed to conform to this - International standard. The remaining types can be emulated with atomic_flag, though with less than - ideal properties. - -4 The macro ATOMIC_FLAG_INIT may be used to initialize an atomic_flag to the - clear state. An atomic_flag that is not explicitly initialized with - ATOMIC_FLAG_INIT is initially in an indeterminate state. -5 EXAMPLE - atomic_flag guard = ATOMIC_FLAG_INIT; - - 7.17.8.1 The atomic_flag_test_and_set functions - Synopsis -1 #include <stdatomic.h> - bool atomic_flag_test_and_set( - volatile atomic_flag *object); - bool atomic_flag_test_and_set_explicit( - volatile atomic_flag *object, memory_order order); - Description -2 Atomically sets the value pointed to by object to true.

The wide character input/output functions described in that subclause - provide operations analogous to most of those described here, except that the - fundamental units internal to the program are wide characters. The external - representation (in the file) is a sequence of ''generalized'' multibyte characters, as - described further in 7.21.3. -5 The input/output functions are given the following collective terms: - -- The wide character input functions -- those functions described in 7.28 that perform - input into wide characters and wide strings: fgetwc, fgetws, getwc, getwchar, - fwscanf, wscanf, vfwscanf, and vwscanf. - -- The wide character output functions -- those functions described in 7.28 that perform - output from wide characters and wide strings: fputwc, fputws, putwc, - putwchar, fwprintf, wprintf, vfwprintf, and vwprintf. - - - 258) If the implementation imposes no practical limit on the length of file name strings, the value of - FILENAME_MAX should instead be the recommended size of an array intended to hold a file name - string. Of course, file name string contents are subject to other system-specific constraints; therefore - all possible strings of length FILENAME_MAX cannot be expected to be opened successfully. - -[page 297] (Contents) - - -- The wide character input/output functions -- the union of the ungetwc function, the - wide character input functions, and the wide character output functions. - -- The byte input/output functions -- those functions described in this subclause that - perform input/output: fgetc, fgets, fprintf, fputc, fputs, fread, - fscanf, fwrite, getc, getchar, printf, putc, putchar, puts, scanf, * - ungetc, vfprintf, vfscanf, vprintf, and vscanf. - Forward references: files (7.21.3), the fseek function (7.21.9.2), streams (7.21.2), the - tmpnam function (7.21.4.4), <wchar.h> (7.28). - 7.21.2 Streams -1 Input and output, whether to or from physical devices such as terminals and tape drives, - or whether to or from files supported on structured storage devices, are mapped into - logical data streams, whose properties are more uniform than their various inputs and - outputs. Two forms of mapping are supported, for text streams and for binary - streams.259) -2 A text stream is an ordered sequence of characters composed into lines, each line - consisting of zero or more characters plus a terminating new-line character. Whether the - last line requires a terminating new-line character is implementation-defined. Characters - may have to be added, altered, or deleted on input and output to conform to differing - conventions for representing text in the host environment. Thus, there need not be a one- - to-one correspondence between the characters in a stream and those in the external - representation. Data read in from a text stream will necessarily compare equal to the data - that were earlier written out to that stream only if: the data consist only of printing - characters and the control characters horizontal tab and new-line; no new-line character is - immediately preceded by space characters; and the last character is a new-line character. - Whether space characters that are written out immediately before a new-line character - appear when read in is implementation-defined. -3 A binary stream is an ordered sequence of characters that can transparently record - internal data. Data read in from a binary stream shall compare equal to the data that were - earlier written out to that stream, under the same implementation. Such a stream may, - however, have an implementation-defined number of null characters appended to the end - of the stream. -4 Each stream has an orientation. After a stream is associated with an external file, but - before any operations are performed on it, the stream is without orientation. Once a wide - character input/output function has been applied to a stream without orientation, the - - - 259) An implementation need not distinguish between text streams and binary streams. In such an - implementation, there need be no new-line characters in a text stream nor any limit to the length of a - line. - -[page 298] (Contents) - - stream becomes a wide-oriented stream. Similarly, once a byte input/output function has - been applied to a stream without orientation, the stream becomes a byte-oriented stream. - Only a call to the freopen function or the fwide function can otherwise alter the - orientation of a stream. (A successful call to freopen removes any orientation.)260) -5 Byte input/output functions shall not be applied to a wide-oriented stream and wide - character input/output functions shall not be applied to a byte-oriented stream. The - remaining stream operations do not affect, and are not affected by, a stream's orientation, - except for the following additional restrictions: - -- Binary wide-oriented streams have the file-positioning restrictions ascribed to both - text and binary streams. - -- For wide-oriented streams, after a successful call to a file-positioning function that - leaves the file position indicator prior to the end-of-file, a wide character output - function can overwrite a partial multibyte character; any file contents beyond the - byte(s) written are henceforth indeterminate. -6 Each wide-oriented stream has an associated mbstate_t object that stores the current - parse state of the stream. A successful call to fgetpos stores a representation of the - value of this mbstate_t object as part of the value of the fpos_t object. A later - successful call to fsetpos using the same stored fpos_t value restores the value of - the associated mbstate_t object as well as the position within the controlled stream. - Environmental limits -7 An implementation shall support text files with lines containing at least 254 characters, - including the terminating new-line character. The value of the macro BUFSIZ shall be at - least 256. - Forward references: the freopen function (7.21.5.4), the fwide function (7.28.3.5), - mbstate_t (7.29.1), the fgetpos function (7.21.9.1), the fsetpos function - (7.21.9.3). - - - - - 260) The three predefined streams stdin, stdout, and stderr are unoriented at program startup. - -[page 299] (Contents) - - 7.21.3 Files -1 A stream is associated with an external file (which may be a physical device) by opening - a file, which may involve creating a new file. Creating an existing file causes its former - contents to be discarded, if necessary. If a file can support positioning requests (such as a - disk file, as opposed to a terminal), then a file position indicator associated with the - stream is positioned at the start (character number zero) of the file, unless the file is - opened with append mode in which case it is implementation-defined whether the file - position indicator is initially positioned at the beginning or the end of the file. The file - position indicator is maintained by subsequent reads, writes, and positioning requests, to - facilitate an orderly progression through the file. -2 Binary files are not truncated, except as defined in 7.21.5.3. Whether a write on a text - stream causes the associated file to be truncated beyond that point is implementation- - defined. -3 When a stream is unbuffered, characters are intended to appear from the source or at the - destination as soon as possible. Otherwise characters may be accumulated and - transmitted to or from the host environment as a block. When a stream is fully buffered, - characters are intended to be transmitted to or from the host environment as a block when - a buffer is filled. When a stream is line buffered, characters are intended to be - transmitted to or from the host environment as a block when a new-line character is - encountered. Furthermore, characters are intended to be transmitted as a block to the host - environment when a buffer is filled, when input is requested on an unbuffered stream, or - when input is requested on a line buffered stream that requires the transmission of - characters from the host environment. Support for these characteristics is - implementation-defined, and may be affected via the setbuf and setvbuf functions. -4 A file may be disassociated from a controlling stream by closing the file. Output streams - are flushed (any unwritten buffer contents are transmitted to the host environment) before - the stream is disassociated from the file. The value of a pointer to a FILE object is - indeterminate after the associated file is closed (including the standard text streams). - Whether a file of zero length (on which no characters have been written by an output - stream) actually exists is implementation-defined. -5 The file may be subsequently reopened, by the same or another program execution, and - its contents reclaimed or modified (if it can be repositioned at its start). If the main - function returns to its original caller, or if the exit function is called, all open files are - closed (hence all output streams are flushed) before program termination. Other paths to - program termination, such as calling the abort function, need not close all files - properly. -6 The address of the FILE object used to control a stream may be significant; a copy of a - FILE object need not serve in place of the original. - -[page 300] (Contents) - -7 At program startup, three text streams are predefined and need not be opened explicitly - -- standard input (for reading conventional input), standard output (for writing - conventional output), and standard error (for writing diagnostic output). As initially - opened, the standard error stream is not fully buffered; the standard input and standard - output streams are fully buffered if and only if the stream can be determined not to refer - to an interactive device. -8 Functions that open additional (nontemporary) files require a file name, which is a string. - The rules for composing valid file names are implementation-defined. Whether the same - file can be simultaneously open multiple times is also implementation-defined. -9 Although both text and binary wide-oriented streams are conceptually sequences of wide - characters, the external file associated with a wide-oriented stream is a sequence of - multibyte characters, generalized as follows: - -- Multibyte encodings within files may contain embedded null bytes (unlike multibyte - encodings valid for use internal to the program). - -- A file need not begin nor end in the initial shift state.261) -10 Moreover, the encodings used for multibyte characters may differ among files. Both the - nature and choice of such encodings are implementation-defined. -11 The wide character input functions read multibyte characters from the stream and convert - them to wide characters as if they were read by successive calls to the fgetwc function. - Each conversion occurs as if by a call to the mbrtowc function, with the conversion state - described by the stream's own mbstate_t object. The byte input functions read - characters from the stream as if by successive calls to the fgetc function. -12 The wide character output functions convert wide characters to multibyte characters and - write them to the stream as if they were written by successive calls to the fputwc - function. Each conversion occurs as if by a call to the wcrtomb function, with the - conversion state described by the stream's own mbstate_t object. The byte output - functions write characters to the stream as if by successive calls to the fputc function. -13 In some cases, some of the byte input/output functions also perform conversions between - multibyte characters and wide characters. These conversions also occur as if by calls to - the mbrtowc and wcrtomb functions. -14 An encoding error occurs if the character sequence presented to the underlying - mbrtowc function does not form a valid (generalized) multibyte character, or if the code - value passed to the underlying wcrtomb does not correspond to a valid (generalized) - - - 261) Setting the file position indicator to end-of-file, as with fseek(file, 0, SEEK_END), has - undefined behavior for a binary stream (because of possible trailing null characters) or for any stream - with state-dependent encoding that does not assuredly end in the initial shift state. - -[page 301] (Contents) - - multibyte character. The wide character input/output functions and the byte input/output - functions store the value of the macro EILSEQ in errno if and only if an encoding error - occurs. - Environmental limits -15 The value of FOPEN_MAX shall be at least eight, including the three standard text - streams. - Forward references: the exit function (7.22.4.4), the fgetc function (7.21.7.1), the - fopen function (7.21.5.3), the fputc function (7.21.7.3), the setbuf function - (7.21.5.5), the setvbuf function (7.21.5.6), the fgetwc function (7.28.3.1), the - fputwc function (7.28.3.3), conversion state (7.28.6), the mbrtowc function - (7.28.6.3.2), the wcrtomb function (7.28.6.3.3). - 7.21.4 Operations on files - 7.21.4.1 The remove function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - int remove(const char *filename); - Description -2 The remove function causes the file whose name is the string pointed to by filename - to be no longer accessible by that name. A subsequent attempt to open that file using that - name will fail, unless it is created anew. If the file is open, the behavior of the remove - function is implementation-defined. - Returns -3 The remove function returns zero if the operation succeeds, nonzero if it fails. - 7.21.4.2 The rename function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - int rename(const char *old, const char *new); - Description -2 The rename function causes the file whose name is the string pointed to by old to be - henceforth known by the name given by the string pointed to by new. The file named - old is no longer accessible by that name. If a file named by the string pointed to by new - exists prior to the call to the rename function, the behavior is implementation-defined. - - - - -[page 302] (Contents) - - Returns -3 The rename function returns zero if the operation succeeds, nonzero if it fails,262) in - which case if the file existed previously it is still known by its original name. - 7.21.4.3 The tmpfile function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - FILE *tmpfile(void); - Description -2 The tmpfile function creates a temporary binary file that is different from any other - existing file and that will automatically be removed when it is closed or at program - termination. If the program terminates abnormally, whether an open temporary file is - removed is implementation-defined. The file is opened for update with "wb+" mode. - Recommended practice -3 It should be possible to open at least TMP_MAX temporary files during the lifetime of the - program (this limit may be shared with tmpnam) and there should be no limit on the - number simultaneously open other than this limit and any limit on the number of open - files (FOPEN_MAX). - Returns -4 The tmpfile function returns a pointer to the stream of the file that it created. If the file - cannot be created, the tmpfile function returns a null pointer. - Forward references: the fopen function (7.21.5.3). - 7.21.4.4 The tmpnam function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - char *tmpnam(char *s); - Description -2 The tmpnam function generates a string that is a valid file name and that is not the same - as the name of an existing file.263) The function is potentially capable of generating at - - - 262) Among the reasons the implementation may cause the rename function to fail are that the file is open - or that it is necessary to copy its contents to effectuate its renaming. - 263) Files created using strings generated by the tmpnam function are temporary only in the sense that - their names should not collide with those generated by conventional naming rules for the - implementation. It is still necessary to use the remove function to remove such files when their use - is ended, and before program termination. - -[page 303] (Contents) - - least TMP_MAX different strings, but any or all of them may already be in use by existing - files and thus not be suitable return values. -3 The tmpnam function generates a different string each time it is called. -4 Calls to the tmpnam function with a null pointer argument may introduce data races with - each other. The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the tmpnam - function. - Returns -5 If no suitable string can be generated, the tmpnam function returns a null pointer. - Otherwise, if the argument is a null pointer, the tmpnam function leaves its result in an - internal static object and returns a pointer to that object (subsequent calls to the tmpnam - function may modify the same object). If the argument is not a null pointer, it is assumed - to point to an array of at least L_tmpnam chars; the tmpnam function writes its result - in that array and returns the argument as its value. - Environmental limits -6 The value of the macro TMP_MAX shall be at least 25. - 7.21.5 File access functions - 7.21.5.1 The fclose function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - int fclose(FILE *stream); - Description -2 A successful call to the fclose function causes the stream pointed to by stream to be - flushed and the associated file to be closed. Any unwritten buffered data for the stream - are delivered to the host environment to be written to the file; any unread buffered data - are discarded. Whether or not the call succeeds, the stream is disassociated from the file - and any buffer set by the setbuf or setvbuf function is disassociated from the stream - (and deallocated if it was automatically allocated). - Returns -3 The fclose function returns zero if the stream was successfully closed, or EOF if any - errors were detected. - - - - -[page 304] (Contents) - - 7.21.5.2 The fflush function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - int fflush(FILE *stream); - Description -2 If stream points to an output stream or an update stream in which the most recent - operation was not input, the fflush function causes any unwritten data for that stream - to be delivered to the host environment to be written to the file; otherwise, the behavior is - undefined. -3 If stream is a null pointer, the fflush function performs this flushing action on all - streams for which the behavior is defined above. - Returns -4 The fflush function sets the error indicator for the stream and returns EOF if a write - error occurs, otherwise it returns zero. - Forward references: the fopen function (7.21.5.3). - 7.21.5.3 The fopen function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - FILE *fopen(const char * restrict filename, - const char * restrict mode); - Description -2 The fopen function opens the file whose name is the string pointed to by filename, - and associates a stream with it. -3 The argument mode points to a string. If the string is one of the following, the file is - open in the indicated mode. Otherwise, the behavior is undefined.264) - r open text file for reading - w truncate to zero length or create text file for writing - wx create text file for writing - a append; open or create text file for writing at end-of-file - rb open binary file for reading - wb truncate to zero length or create binary file for writing - - - 264) If the string begins with one of the above sequences, the implementation might choose to ignore the - remaining characters, or it might use them to select different kinds of a file (some of which might not - conform to the properties in 7.21.2). - -[page 305] (Contents) - - wbx create binary file for writing - ab append; open or create binary file for writing at end-of-file - r+ open text file for update (reading and writing) - w+ truncate to zero length or create text file for update - w+x create text file for update - a+ append; open or create text file for update, writing at end-of-file - r+b or rb+ open binary file for update (reading and writing) - w+b or wb+ truncate to zero length or create binary file for update - w+bx or wb+x create binary file for update - a+b or ab+ append; open or create binary file for update, writing at end-of-file -4 Opening a file with read mode ('r' as the first character in the mode argument) fails if - the file does not exist or cannot be read. -5 Opening a file with exclusive mode ('x' as the last character in the mode argument) - fails if the file already exists or cannot be created. Otherwise, the file is created with - exclusive (also known as non-shared) access to the extent that the underlying system - supports exclusive access. -6 Opening a file with append mode ('a' as the first character in the mode argument) - causes all subsequent writes to the file to be forced to the then current end-of-file, - regardless of intervening calls to the fseek function. In some implementations, opening - a binary file with append mode ('b' as the second or third character in the above list of - mode argument values) may initially position the file position indicator for the stream - beyond the last data written, because of null character padding. -7 When a file is opened with update mode ('+' as the second or third character in the - above list of mode argument values), both input and output may be performed on the - associated stream. However, output shall not be directly followed by input without an - intervening call to the fflush function or to a file positioning function (fseek, - fsetpos, or rewind), and input shall not be directly followed by output without an - intervening call to a file positioning function, unless the input operation encounters end- - of-file. Opening (or creating) a text file with update mode may instead open (or create) a - binary stream in some implementations. -8 When opened, a stream is fully buffered if and only if it can be determined not to refer to - an interactive device. The error and end-of-file indicators for the stream are cleared. - Returns -9 The fopen function returns a pointer to the object controlling the stream. If the open - operation fails, fopen returns a null pointer. - Forward references: file positioning functions (7.21.9). - - - -[page 306] (Contents) - - 7.21.5.4 The freopen function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - FILE *freopen(const char * restrict filename, - const char * restrict mode, - FILE * restrict stream); - Description -2 The freopen function opens the file whose name is the string pointed to by filename - and associates the stream pointed to by stream with it. The mode argument is used just - as in the fopen function.265) -3 If filename is a null pointer, the freopen function attempts to change the mode of - the stream to that specified by mode, as if the name of the file currently associated with - the stream had been used. It is implementation-defined which changes of mode are - permitted (if any), and under what circumstances. -4 The freopen function first attempts to close any file that is associated with the specified - stream. Failure to close the file is ignored. The error and end-of-file indicators for the - stream are cleared. - Returns -5 The freopen function returns a null pointer if the open operation fails. Otherwise, - freopen returns the value of stream. - 7.21.5.5 The setbuf function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - void setbuf(FILE * restrict stream, - char * restrict buf); - Description -2 Except that it returns no value, the setbuf function is equivalent to the setvbuf - function invoked with the values _IOFBF for mode and BUFSIZ for size, or (if buf - is a null pointer), with the value _IONBF for mode. - - - - - 265) The primary use of the freopen function is to change the file associated with a standard text stream - (stderr, stdin, or stdout), as those identifiers need not be modifiable lvalues to which the value - returned by the fopen function may be assigned. - -[page 307] (Contents) - - Returns -3 The setbuf function returns no value. - Forward references: the setvbuf function (7.21.5.6). - 7.21.5.6 The setvbuf function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - int setvbuf(FILE * restrict stream, - char * restrict buf, - int mode, size_t size); - Description -2 The setvbuf function may be used only after the stream pointed to by stream has - been associated with an open file and before any other operation (other than an - unsuccessful call to setvbuf) is performed on the stream. The argument mode - determines how stream will be buffered, as follows: _IOFBF causes input/output to be - fully buffered; _IOLBF causes input/output to be line buffered; _IONBF causes - input/output to be unbuffered. If buf is not a null pointer, the array it points to may be - used instead of a buffer allocated by the setvbuf function266) and the argument size - specifies the size of the array; otherwise, size may determine the size of a buffer - allocated by the setvbuf function. The contents of the array at any time are - indeterminate. - Returns -3 The setvbuf function returns zero on success, or nonzero if an invalid value is given - for mode or if the request cannot be honored. - - - - - 266) The buffer has to have a lifetime at least as great as the open stream, so the stream should be closed - before a buffer that has automatic storage duration is deallocated upon block exit. - -[page 308] (Contents) - - 7.21.6 Formatted input/output functions -1 The formatted input/output functions shall behave as if there is a sequence point after the - actions associated with each specifier.267) - 7.21.6.1 The fprintf function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - int fprintf(FILE * restrict stream, - const char * restrict format, ...); - Description -2 The fprintf function writes output to the stream pointed to by stream, under control - of the string pointed to by format that specifies how subsequent arguments are - converted for output. If there are insufficient arguments for the format, the behavior is - undefined. If the format is exhausted while arguments remain, the excess arguments are - evaluated (as always) but are otherwise ignored. The fprintf function returns when - the end of the format string is encountered. -3 The format shall be a multibyte character sequence, beginning and ending in its initial - shift state. The format is composed of zero or more directives: ordinary multibyte - characters (not %), which are copied unchanged to the output stream; and conversion - specifications, each of which results in fetching zero or more subsequent arguments, - converting them, if applicable, according to the corresponding conversion specifier, and - then writing the result to the output stream. -4 Each conversion specification is introduced by the character %. After the %, the following - appear in sequence: - -- Zero or more flags (in any order) that modify the meaning of the conversion - specification. - -- An optional minimum field width. If the converted value has fewer characters than the - field width, it is padded with spaces (by default) on the left (or right, if the left - adjustment flag, described later, has been given) to the field width. The field width - takes the form of an asterisk * (described later) or a nonnegative decimal integer.268) - -- An optional precision that gives the minimum number of digits to appear for the d, i, - o, u, x, and X conversions, the number of digits to appear after the decimal-point - character for a, A, e, E, f, and F conversions, the maximum number of significant - digits for the g and G conversions, or the maximum number of bytes to be written for - - - 267) The fprintf functions perform writes to memory for the %n specifier. - 268) Note that 0 is taken as a flag, not as the beginning of a field width. - -[page 309] (Contents) - - s conversions. The precision takes the form of a period (.) followed either by an - asterisk * (described later) or by an optional decimal integer; if only the period is - specified, the precision is taken as zero. If a precision appears with any other - conversion specifier, the behavior is undefined. - -- An optional length modifier that specifies the size of the argument. - -- A conversion specifier character that specifies the type of conversion to be applied. -5 As noted above, a field width, or precision, or both, may be indicated by an asterisk. In - this case, an int argument supplies the field width or precision. The arguments - specifying field width, or precision, or both, shall appear (in that order) before the - argument (if any) to be converted. A negative field width argument is taken as a - flag - followed by a positive field width. A negative precision argument is taken as if the - precision were omitted. -6 The flag characters and their meanings are: - - The result of the conversion is left-justified within the field. (It is right-justified if - this flag is not specified.) - + The result of a signed conversion always begins with a plus or minus sign. (It - begins with a sign only when a negative value is converted if this flag is not - specified.)269) - space If the first character of a signed conversion is not a sign, or if a signed conversion - results in no characters, a space is prefixed to the result. If the space and + flags - both appear, the space flag is ignored. - # The result is converted to an ''alternative form''. For o conversion, it increases - the precision, if and only if necessary, to force the first digit of the result to be a - zero (if the value and precision are both 0, a single 0 is printed). For x (or X) - conversion, a nonzero result has 0x (or 0X) prefixed to it. For a, A, e, E, f, F, g, - and G conversions, the result of converting a floating-point number always - contains a decimal-point character, even if no digits follow it. (Normally, a - decimal-point character appears in the result of these conversions only if a digit - follows it.) For g and G conversions, trailing zeros are not removed from the - result. For other conversions, the behavior is undefined. - 0 For d, i, o, u, x, X, a, A, e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, leading zeros - (following any indication of sign or base) are used to pad to the field width rather - than performing space padding, except when converting an infinity or NaN.

If there are insufficient arguments for the format, - the behavior is undefined. If the format is exhausted while arguments remain, the excess - arguments are evaluated (as always) but are otherwise ignored. -3 The format shall be a multibyte character sequence, beginning and ending in its initial - shift state. The format is composed of zero or more directives: one or more white-space - characters, an ordinary multibyte character (neither % nor a white-space character), or a - conversion specification. Each conversion specification is introduced by the character %. - After the %, the following appear in sequence: - -- An optional assignment-suppressing character *. - -- An optional decimal integer greater than zero that specifies the maximum field width - (in characters). - -- An optional length modifier that specifies the size of the receiving object. - -- A conversion specifier character that specifies the type of conversion to be applied. -4 The fscanf function executes each directive of the format in turn. When all directives - have been executed, or if a directive fails (as detailed below), the function returns. - Failures are described as input failures (due to the occurrence of an encoding error or the - unavailability of input characters), or matching failures (due to inappropriate input). -5 A directive composed of white-space character(s) is executed by reading input up to the - first non-white-space character (which remains unread), or until no more characters can - be read. -6 A directive that is an ordinary multibyte character is executed by reading the next - characters of the stream. If any of those characters differ from the ones composing the - directive, the directive fails and the differing and subsequent characters remain unread. - Similarly, if end-of-file, an encoding error, or a read error prevents a character from being - read, the directive fails. -7 A directive that is a conversion specification defines a set of matching input sequences, as - described below for each specifier.

An - input item is defined as the longest sequence of input characters which does not exceed - any specified field width and which is, or is a prefix of, a matching input sequence.278) - The first character, if any, after the input item remains unread. If the length of the input - item is zero, the execution of the directive fails; this condition is a matching failure unless - end-of-file, an encoding error, or a read error prevented input from the stream, in which - case it is an input failure. -10 Except in the case of a % specifier, the input item (or, in the case of a %n directive, the - count of input characters) is converted to a type appropriate to the conversion specifier.

The subject - sequence contains no characters if the input string is not of the expected form. -4 If the subject sequence has the expected form for a floating-point number, the sequence of - characters starting with the first digit or the decimal-point character (whichever occurs - first) is interpreted as a floating constant according to the rules of 6.4.4.2, except that the -[page 342] (Contents) - - decimal-point character is used in place of a period, and that if neither an exponent part - nor a decimal-point character appears in a decimal floating point number, or if a binary - exponent part does not appear in a hexadecimal floating point number, an exponent part - of the appropriate type with value zero is assumed to follow the last digit in the string. If - the subject sequence begins with a minus sign, the sequence is interpreted as negated.285) - A character sequence INF or INFINITY is interpreted as an infinity, if representable in - the return type, else like a floating constant that is too large for the range of the return - type. A character sequence NAN or NAN(n-char-sequenceopt), is interpreted as a quiet - NaN, if supported in the return type, else like a subject sequence part that does not have - the expected form; the meaning of the n-char sequences is implementation-defined.286) A - pointer to the final string is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided that - endptr is not a null pointer. -5 If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form and FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the - value resulting from the conversion is correctly rounded. -6 In other than the "C" locale, additional locale-specific subject sequence forms may be - accepted. -7 If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form, no conversion is - performed; the value of nptr is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided - that endptr is not a null pointer. - Recommended practice -8 If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form, FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, and - the result is not exactly representable, the result should be one of the two numbers in the - appropriate internal format that are adjacent to the hexadecimal floating source value, - with the extra stipulation that the error should have a correct sign for the current rounding - direction. -9 If the subject sequence has the decimal form and at most DECIMAL_DIG (defined in - <float.h>) significant digits, the result should be correctly rounded. If the subject - sequence D has the decimal form and more than DECIMAL_DIG significant digits, - consider the two bounding, adjacent decimal strings L and U, both having - DECIMAL_DIG significant digits, such that the values of L, D, and U satisfy L <= D <= U. - The result should be one of the (equal or adjacent) values that would be obtained by - correctly rounding L and U according to the current rounding direction, with the extra - - 285) It is unspecified whether a minus-signed sequence is converted to a negative number directly or by - negating the value resulting from converting the corresponding unsigned sequence (see F.5); the two - methods may yield different results if rounding is toward positive or negative infinity.

If the correct value overflows and default rounding is in effect (7.12.1), - plus or minus HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, or HUGE_VALL is returned (according to the - return type and sign of the value), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in - errno. If the result underflows (7.12.1), the functions return a value whose magnitude is - no greater than the smallest normalized positive number in the return type; whether - errno acquires the value ERANGE is implementation-defined. - 7.22.1.4 The strtol, strtoll, strtoul, and strtoull functions - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - long int strtol( - const char * restrict nptr, - char ** restrict endptr, - int base); - long long int strtoll( - const char * restrict nptr, - char ** restrict endptr, - int base); - unsigned long int strtoul( - const char * restrict nptr, - char ** restrict endptr, - int base); - unsigned long long int strtoull( - const char * restrict nptr, - char ** restrict endptr, - int base); - Description -2 The strtol, strtoll, strtoul, and strtoull functions convert the initial - portion of the string pointed to by nptr to long int, long long int, unsigned - long int, and unsigned long long int representation, respectively. First, - they decompose the input string into three parts: an initial, possibly empty, sequence of - white-space characters (as specified by the isspace function), a subject sequence - - - 287) DECIMAL_DIG, defined in <float.h>, should be sufficiently large that L and U will usually round - to the same internal floating value, but if not will round to adjacent values. - -[page 344] (Contents) - - resembling an integer represented in some radix determined by the value of base, and a - final string of one or more unrecognized characters, including the terminating null - character of the input string. Then, they attempt to convert the subject sequence to an - integer, and return the result. -3 If the value of base is zero, the expected form of the subject sequence is that of an - integer constant as described in 6.4.4.1, optionally preceded by a plus or minus sign, but - not including an integer suffix. If the value of base is between 2 and 36 (inclusive), the - expected form of the subject sequence is a sequence of letters and digits representing an - integer with the radix specified by base, optionally preceded by a plus or minus sign, - but not including an integer suffix. The letters from a (or A) through z (or Z) are - ascribed the values 10 through 35; only letters and digits whose ascribed values are less - than that of base are permitted. If the value of base is 16, the characters 0x or 0X may - optionally precede the sequence of letters and digits, following the sign if present. -4 The subject sequence is defined as the longest initial subsequence of the input string, - starting with the first non-white-space character, that is of the expected form. The subject - sequence contains no characters if the input string is empty or consists entirely of white - space, or if the first non-white-space character is other than a sign or a permissible letter - or digit. -5 If the subject sequence has the expected form and the value of base is zero, the sequence - of characters starting with the first digit is interpreted as an integer constant according to - the rules of 6.4.4.1. If the subject sequence has the expected form and the value of base - is between 2 and 36, it is used as the base for conversion, ascribing to each letter its value - as given above. If the subject sequence begins with a minus sign, the value resulting from - the conversion is negated (in the return type). A pointer to the final string is stored in the - object pointed to by endptr, provided that endptr is not a null pointer. -6 In other than the "C" locale, additional locale-specific subject sequence forms may be - accepted. -7 If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form, no conversion is - performed; the value of nptr is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided - that endptr is not a null pointer. - Returns -8 The strtol, strtoll, strtoul, and strtoull functions return the converted - value, if any. If no conversion could be performed, zero is returned. If the correct value - is outside the range of representable values, LONG_MIN, LONG_MAX, LLONG_MIN, - LLONG_MAX, ULONG_MAX, or ULLONG_MAX is returned (according to the return type - and sign of the value, if any), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in errno. - - - - -[page 345] (Contents) - - 7.22.2 Pseudo-random sequence generation functions - 7.22.2.1 The rand function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - int rand(void); - Description -2 The rand function computes a sequence of pseudo-random integers in the range 0 to - RAND_MAX.288) -3 The rand function is not required to avoid data races.

If srand is then called with the - same seed value, the sequence of pseudo-random numbers shall be repeated. If rand is - called before any calls to srand have been made, the same sequence shall be generated - as when srand is first called with a seed value of 1. -3 The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the srand function. - Returns -4 The srand function returns no value. - - - - - 288) There are no guarantees as to the quality of the random sequence produced and some implementations - are known to produce sequences with distressingly non-random low-order bits.

The - pointer returned if the allocation succeeds is suitably aligned so that it may be assigned to - a pointer to any type of object with a fundamental alignment requirement and then used - to access such an object or an array of such objects in the space allocated (until the space - is explicitly deallocated). The lifetime of an allocated object extends from the allocation - until the deallocation. Each such allocation shall yield a pointer to an object disjoint from - any other object. The pointer returned points to the start (lowest byte address) of the - allocated space. If the space cannot be allocated, a null pointer is returned. If the size of - the space requested is zero, the behavior is implementation-defined: either a null pointer - is returned, or the behavior is as if the size were some nonzero value, except that the - returned pointer shall not be used to access an object. - 7.22.3.1 The aligned_alloc function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - void *aligned_alloc(size_t alignment, size_t size); - Description -2 The aligned_alloc function allocates space for an object whose alignment is - specified by alignment, whose size is specified by size, and whose value is - indeterminate.

If ptr is a null pointer, no action occurs. Otherwise, if - the argument does not match a pointer earlier returned by a memory management - function, or if the space has been deallocated by a call to free or realloc, the - behavior is undefined. - Returns -3 The free function returns no value. - 7.22.3.4 The malloc function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - void *malloc(size_t size); - Description -2 The malloc function allocates space for an object whose size is specified by size and - whose value is indeterminate. - - - - - 289) Note that this need not be the same as the representation of floating-point zero or a null pointer - constant. - -[page 348] (Contents) - - Returns -3 The malloc function returns either a null pointer or a pointer to the allocated space. - 7.22.3.5 The realloc function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - void *realloc(void *ptr, size_t size); - Description -2 The realloc function deallocates the old object pointed to by ptr and returns a - pointer to a new object that has the size specified by size. The contents of the new - object shall be the same as that of the old object prior to deallocation, up to the lesser of - the new and old sizes. Any bytes in the new object beyond the size of the old object have - indeterminate values. -3 If ptr is a null pointer, the realloc function behaves like the malloc function for the - specified size. Otherwise, if ptr does not match a pointer earlier returned by a memory - management function, or if the space has been deallocated by a call to the free or - realloc function, the behavior is undefined. If memory for the new object cannot be - allocated, the old object is not deallocated and its value is unchanged. - Returns -4 The realloc function returns a pointer to the new object (which may have the same - value as a pointer to the old object), or a null pointer if the new object could not be - allocated. - 7.22.4 Communication with the environment - 7.22.4.1 The abort function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - _Noreturn void abort(void); - Description -2 The abort function causes abnormal program termination to occur, unless the signal - SIGABRT is being caught and the signal handler does not return.

If the argument is not a null pointer, and the system - function does return, it returns an implementation-defined value. - 7.22.5 Searching and sorting utilities -1 These utilities make use of a comparison function to search or sort arrays of unspecified - type. Where an argument declared as size_t nmemb specifies the length of the array - for a function, nmemb can have the value zero on a call to that function; the comparison - function is not called, a search finds no matching element, and sorting performs no - rearrangement. Pointer arguments on such a call shall still have valid values, as described - in 7.1.4. -2 The implementation shall ensure that the second argument of the comparison function - (when called from bsearch), or both arguments (when called from qsort), are - pointers to elements of the array.295) The first argument when called from bsearch - shall equal key. - - - - 294) Each function is called as many times as it was registered, and in the correct order with respect to - other registered functions. - -[page 353] (Contents) - -3 The comparison function shall not alter the contents of the array. The implementation - may reorder elements of the array between calls to the comparison function, but shall not - alter the contents of any individual element. -4 When the same objects (consisting of size bytes, irrespective of their current positions - in the array) are passed more than once to the comparison function, the results shall be - consistent with one another. That is, for qsort they shall define a total ordering on the - array, and for bsearch the same object shall always compare the same way with the - key. -5 A sequence point occurs immediately before and immediately after each call to the - comparison function, and also between any call to the comparison function and any - movement of the objects passed as arguments to that call. - 7.22.5.1 The bsearch function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - void *bsearch(const void *key, const void *base, - size_t nmemb, size_t size, - int (*compar)(const void *, const void *)); - Description -2 The bsearch function searches an array of nmemb objects, the initial element of which - is pointed to by base, for an element that matches the object pointed to by key. The - size of each element of the array is specified by size. -3 The comparison function pointed to by compar is called with two arguments that point - to the key object and to an array element, in that order. The function shall return an - integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if the key object is considered, - respectively, to be less than, to match, or to be greater than the array element. The array - shall consist of: all the elements that compare less than, all the elements that compare - equal to, and all the elements that compare greater than the key object, in that order.296) - Returns -4 The bsearch function returns a pointer to a matching element of the array, or a null - pointer if no match is found. If two elements compare as equal, which element is - - - 295) That is, if the value passed is p, then the following expressions are always nonzero: - ((char *)p - (char *)base) % size == 0 - (char *)p >= (char *)base - (char *)p < (char *)base + nmemb * size - - 296) In practice, the entire array is sorted according to the comparison function. - -[page 354] (Contents) - - matched is unspecified. - 7.22.5.2 The qsort function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - void qsort(void *base, size_t nmemb, size_t size, - int (*compar)(const void *, const void *)); - Description -2 The qsort function sorts an array of nmemb objects, the initial element of which is - pointed to by base. The size of each object is specified by size. -3 The contents of the array are sorted into ascending order according to a comparison - function pointed to by compar, which is called with two arguments that point to the - objects being compared. The function shall return an integer less than, equal to, or - greater than zero if the first argument is considered to be respectively less than, equal to, - or greater than the second. -4 If two elements compare as equal, their order in the resulting sorted array is unspecified. - Returns -5 The qsort function returns no value. - 7.22.6 Integer arithmetic functions - 7.22.6.1 The abs, labs and llabs functions - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - int abs(int j); - long int labs(long int j); - long long int llabs(long long int j); - Description -2 The abs, labs, and llabs functions compute the absolute value of an integer j. If the - result cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined.297) - Returns -3 The abs, labs, and llabs, functions return the absolute value. - - - - - 297) The absolute value of the most negative number cannot be represented in two's complement. - -[page 355] (Contents) - - 7.22.6.2 The div, ldiv, and lldiv functions - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - div_t div(int numer, int denom); - ldiv_t ldiv(long int numer, long int denom); - lldiv_t lldiv(long long int numer, long long int denom); - Description -2 The div, ldiv, and lldiv, functions compute numer / denom and numer % - denom in a single operation. - Returns -3 The div, ldiv, and lldiv functions return a structure of type div_t, ldiv_t, and - lldiv_t, respectively, comprising both the quotient and the remainder. The structures - shall contain (in either order) the members quot (the quotient) and rem (the remainder), - each of which has the same type as the arguments numer and denom. If either part of - the result cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined. - 7.22.7 Multibyte/wide character conversion functions -1 The behavior of the multibyte character functions is affected by the LC_CTYPE category - of the current locale. For a state-dependent encoding, each function is placed into its - initial conversion state at program startup and can be returned to that state by a call for - which its character pointer argument, s, is a null pointer. Subsequent calls with s as - other than a null pointer cause the internal conversion state of the function to be altered as - necessary.

To determine the time in seconds, the value returned by - the clock function should be divided by the value of the macro CLOCKS_PER_SEC. If - the processor time used is not available or its value cannot be represented, the function - returns the value (clock_t)(-1).308) - 7.26.2.2 The difftime function - Synopsis -1 #include <time.h> - double difftime(time_t time1, time_t time0); - Description -2 The difftime function computes the difference between two calendar times: time1 - - time0. - Returns -3 The difftime function returns the difference expressed in seconds as a double. - - - - - 308) In order to measure the time spent in a program, the clock function should be called at the start of - the program and its return value subtracted from the value returned by subsequent calls. - -[page 386] (Contents) - - 7.26.2.3 The mktime function - Synopsis -1 #include <time.h> - time_t mktime(struct tm *timeptr); - Description -2 The mktime function converts the broken-down time, expressed as local time, in the - structure pointed to by timeptr into a calendar time value with the same encoding as - that of the values returned by the time function. The original values of the tm_wday - and tm_yday components of the structure are ignored, and the original values of the - other components are not restricted to the ranges indicated above.309) On successful - completion, the values of the tm_wday and tm_yday components of the structure are - set appropriately, and the other components are set to represent the specified calendar - time, but with their values forced to the ranges indicated above; the final value of - tm_mday is not set until tm_mon and tm_year are determined. - Returns -3 The mktime function returns the specified calendar time encoded as a value of type - time_t.

The encoding of the value is - unspecified. - Returns -3 The time function returns the implementation's best approximation to the current - calendar time. The value (time_t)(-1) is returned if the calendar time is not - available. If timer is not a null pointer, the return value is also assigned to the object it - points to. - 7.26.3 Time conversion functions -1 Except for the strftime function, these functions each return a pointer to one of two - types of static objects: a broken-down time structure or an array of char. Execution of - any of the functions that return a pointer to one of these object types may overwrite the - information in any object of the same type pointed to by the value returned from any - previous call to any of them and the functions are not required to avoid data races.

It is also used as a wide character value that does not correspond to any member - of the extended character set. -4 The functions declared are grouped as follows: - -- Functions that perform input and output of wide characters, or multibyte characters, - or both; - -- Functions that provide wide string numeric conversion; - -- Functions that perform general wide string manipulation; - - - 313) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.12). - 314) wchar_t and wint_t can be the same integer type. - 315) The value of the macro WEOF may differ from that of EOF and need not be negative. - -[page 399] (Contents) - - -- Functions for wide string date and time conversion; and - -- Functions that provide extended capabilities for conversion between multibyte and - wide character sequences. -5 Unless explicitly stated otherwise, if the execution of a function described in this - subclause causes copying to take place between objects that overlap, the behavior is - undefined. - 7.28.2 Formatted wide character input/output functions -1 The formatted wide character input/output functions shall behave as if there is a sequence - point after the actions associated with each specifier.316) - 7.28.2.1 The fwprintf function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdio.h> - #include <wchar.h> - int fwprintf(FILE * restrict stream, - const wchar_t * restrict format, ...); - Description -2 The fwprintf function writes output to the stream pointed to by stream, under - control of the wide string pointed to by format that specifies how subsequent arguments - are converted for output. If there are insufficient arguments for the format, the behavior - is undefined. If the format is exhausted while arguments remain, the excess arguments - are evaluated (as always) but are otherwise ignored. The fwprintf function returns - when the end of the format string is encountered. -3 The format is composed of zero or more directives: ordinary wide characters (not %), - which are copied unchanged to the output stream; and conversion specifications, each of - which results in fetching zero or more subsequent arguments, converting them, if - applicable, according to the corresponding conversion specifier, and then writing the - result to the output stream. -4 Each conversion specification is introduced by the wide character %. After the %, the - following appear in sequence: - -- Zero or more flags (in any order) that modify the meaning of the conversion - specification. - -- An optional minimum field width. If the converted value has fewer wide characters - than the field width, it is padded with spaces (by default) on the left (or right, if the - - - 316) The fwprintf functions perform writes to memory for the %n specifier. - -[page 400] (Contents) - - left adjustment flag, described later, has been given) to the field width. The field - width takes the form of an asterisk * (described later) or a nonnegative decimal - integer.317) - -- An optional precision that gives the minimum number of digits to appear for the d, i, - o, u, x, and X conversions, the number of digits to appear after the decimal-point - wide character for a, A, e, E, f, and F conversions, the maximum number of - significant digits for the g and G conversions, or the maximum number of wide - characters to be written for s conversions. The precision takes the form of a period - (.) followed either by an asterisk * (described later) or by an optional decimal - integer; if only the period is specified, the precision is taken as zero. If a precision - appears with any other conversion specifier, the behavior is undefined. - -- An optional length modifier that specifies the size of the argument. - -- A conversion specifier wide character that specifies the type of conversion to be - applied. -5 As noted above, a field width, or precision, or both, may be indicated by an asterisk. In - this case, an int argument supplies the field width or precision. The arguments - specifying field width, or precision, or both, shall appear (in that order) before the - argument (if any) to be converted. A negative field width argument is taken as a - flag - followed by a positive field width. A negative precision argument is taken as if the - precision were omitted. -6 The flag wide characters and their meanings are: - - The result of the conversion is left-justified within the field. (It is right-justified if - this flag is not specified.) - + The result of a signed conversion always begins with a plus or minus sign. (It - begins with a sign only when a negative value is converted if this flag is not - specified.)318) - space If the first wide character of a signed conversion is not a sign, or if a signed - conversion results in no wide characters, a space is prefixed to the result. If the - space and + flags both appear, the space flag is ignored. - # The result is converted to an ''alternative form''. For o conversion, it increases - the precision, if and only if necessary, to force the first digit of the result to be a - zero (if the value and precision are both 0, a single 0 is printed).

For a, A, e, E, f, F, g, - - - 317) Note that 0 is taken as a flag, not as the beginning of a field width. - 318) The results of all floating conversions of a negative zero, and of negative values that round to zero, - include a minus sign. - -[page 401] (Contents) - - and G conversions, the result of converting a floating-point number always - contains a decimal-point wide character, even if no digits follow it. (Normally, a - decimal-point wide character appears in the result of these conversions only if a - digit follows it.) For g and G conversions, trailing zeros are not removed from the - result. For other conversions, the behavior is undefined. - 0 For d, i, o, u, x, X, a, A, e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, leading zeros - (following any indication of sign or base) are used to pad to the field width rather - than performing space padding, except when converting an infinity or NaN. If the - 0 and - flags both appear, the 0 flag is ignored. For d, i, o, u, x, and X - conversions, if a precision is specified, the 0 flag is ignored. For other - conversions, the behavior is undefined. -7 The length modifiers and their meanings are: - hh Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a - signed char or unsigned char argument (the argument will have - been promoted according to the integer promotions, but its value shall be - converted to signed char or unsigned char before printing); or that - a following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a signed char - argument. - h Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a - short int or unsigned short int argument (the argument will - have been promoted according to the integer promotions, but its value shall - be converted to short int or unsigned short int before printing); - or that a following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a short - int argument. - l (ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a - long int or unsigned long int argument; that a following n - conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a long int argument; that a - following c conversion specifier applies to a wint_t argument; that a - following s conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a wchar_t - argument; or has no effect on a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion - specifier. - ll (ell-ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a - long long int or unsigned long long int argument; or that a - following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a long long int - argument. - j Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to - an intmax_t or uintmax_t argument; or that a following n conversion - specifier applies to a pointer to an intmax_t argument. - -[page 402] (Contents) - - z Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a - size_t or the corresponding signed integer type argument; or that a - following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a signed integer type - corresponding to size_t argument. - t Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a - ptrdiff_t or the corresponding unsigned integer type argument; or that a - following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a ptrdiff_t - argument. - L Specifies that a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion specifier - applies to a long double argument. - If a length modifier appears with any conversion specifier other than as specified above, - the behavior is undefined. -8 The conversion specifiers and their meanings are: - d,i The int argument is converted to signed decimal in the style [-]dddd. The - precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear; if the value - being converted can be represented in fewer digits, it is expanded with - leading zeros. The default precision is 1. The result of converting a zero - value with a precision of zero is no wide characters. - o,u,x,X The unsigned int argument is converted to unsigned octal (o), unsigned - decimal (u), or unsigned hexadecimal notation (x or X) in the style dddd; the - letters abcdef are used for x conversion and the letters ABCDEF for X - conversion.

If the - precision is missing, it is taken as 6; if the precision is zero and the # flag is - not specified, no decimal-point wide character appears. If a decimal-point - wide character appears, at least one digit appears before it. The value is - rounded to the appropriate number of digits. - A double argument representing an infinity is converted in one of the styles - [-]inf or [-]infinity -- which style is implementation-defined. A - double argument representing a NaN is converted in one of the styles - [-]nan or [-]nan(n-wchar-sequence) -- which style, and the meaning of - any n-wchar-sequence, is implementation-defined. The F conversion - specifier produces INF, INFINITY, or NAN instead of inf, infinity, or - -[page 403] (Contents) - - nan, respectively.319) -e,E A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in the - style [-]d.ddd e(+-)dd, where there is one digit (which is nonzero if the - argument is nonzero) before the decimal-point wide character and the number - of digits after it is equal to the precision; if the precision is missing, it is taken - as 6; if the precision is zero and the # flag is not specified, no decimal-point - wide character appears. The value is rounded to the appropriate number of - digits. The E conversion specifier produces a number with E instead of e - introducing the exponent. The exponent always contains at least two digits, - and only as many more digits as necessary to represent the exponent. If the - value is zero, the exponent is zero. - A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style - of an f or F conversion specifier. -g,G A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in - style f or e (or in style F or E in the case of a G conversion specifier), - depending on the value converted and the precision. Let P equal the - precision if nonzero, 6 if the precision is omitted, or 1 if the precision is zero. - Then, if a conversion with style E would have an exponent of X: - -- if P > X >= -4, the conversion is with style f (or F) and precision - P - (X + 1). - -- otherwise, the conversion is with style e (or E) and precision P - 1. - Finally, unless the # flag is used, any trailing zeros are removed from the - fractional portion of the result and the decimal-point wide character is - removed if there is no fractional portion remaining. - A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style - of an f or F conversion specifier. -a,A A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in the - style [-]0xh.hhhh p(+-)d, where there is one hexadecimal digit (which is - nonzero if the argument is a normalized floating-point number and is - otherwise unspecified) before the decimal-point wide character320) and the - number of hexadecimal digits after it is equal to the precision; if the precision - is missing and FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, then the precision is sufficient - - -319) When applied to infinite and NaN values, the -, +, and space flag wide characters have their usual - meaning; the # and 0 flag wide characters have no effect. -320) Binary implementations can choose the hexadecimal digit to the left of the decimal-point wide - character so that subsequent digits align to nibble (4-bit) boundaries. - -[page 404] (Contents) - - for an exact representation of the value; if the precision is missing and - FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, then the precision is sufficient to - distinguish321) values of type double, except that trailing zeros may be - omitted; if the precision is zero and the # flag is not specified, no decimal- - point wide character appears.

If there are insufficient - arguments for the format, the behavior is undefined.

When all directives - have been executed, or if a directive fails (as detailed below), the function returns. - Failures are described as input failures (due to the occurrence of an encoding error or the - unavailability of input characters), or matching failures (due to inappropriate input). -5 A directive composed of white-space wide character(s) is executed by reading input up to - the first non-white-space wide character (which remains unread), or until no more wide - characters can be read. -6 A directive that is an ordinary wide character is executed by reading the next wide - character of the stream. If that wide character differs from the directive, the directive - fails and the differing and subsequent wide characters remain unread. Similarly, if end- - of-file, an encoding error, or a read error prevents a wide character from being read, the - directive fails. -7 A directive that is a conversion specification defines a set of matching input sequences, as - described below for each specifier.

Pushed-back wide characters will be returned by - subsequent reads on that stream in the reverse order of their pushing. A successful - -[page 421] (Contents) - - intervening call (with the stream pointed to by stream) to a file positioning function - (fseek, fsetpos, or rewind) discards any pushed-back wide characters for the - stream. The external storage corresponding to the stream is unchanged. -3 One wide character of pushback is guaranteed, even if the call to the ungetwc function - follows just after a call to a formatted wide character input function fwscanf, - vfwscanf, vwscanf, or wscanf.

For a text or binary stream, the value of its file position indicator after a successful - call to the ungetwc function is unspecified until all pushed-back wide characters are - read or discarded. - Returns -6 The ungetwc function returns the wide character pushed back, or WEOF if the operation - fails. - 7.28.4 General wide string utilities -1 The header <wchar.h> declares a number of functions useful for wide string - manipulation. Various methods are used for determining the lengths of the arrays, but in - all cases a wchar_t * argument points to the initial (lowest addressed) element of the - array. If an array is accessed beyond the end of an object, the behavior is undefined. -2 Where an argument declared as size_t n determines the length of the array for a - function, n can have the value zero on a call to that function. Unless explicitly stated - otherwise in the description of a particular function in this subclause, pointer arguments - on such a call shall still have valid values, as described in 7.1.4. On such a call, a - function that locates a wide character finds no occurrence, a function that compares two - wide character sequences returns zero, and a function that copies wide characters copies - zero wide characters. - - - - -[page 422] (Contents) - - 7.28.4.1 Wide string numeric conversion functions - 7.28.4.1.1 The wcstod, wcstof, and wcstold functions - Synopsis -1 #include <wchar.h> - double wcstod(const wchar_t * restrict nptr, - wchar_t ** restrict endptr); - float wcstof(const wchar_t * restrict nptr, - wchar_t ** restrict endptr); - long double wcstold(const wchar_t * restrict nptr, - wchar_t ** restrict endptr); - Description -2 The wcstod, wcstof, and wcstold functions convert the initial portion of the wide - string pointed to by nptr to double, float, and long double representation, - respectively. First, they decompose the input string into three parts: an initial, possibly - empty, sequence of white-space wide characters (as specified by the iswspace - function), a subject sequence resembling a floating-point constant or representing an - infinity or NaN; and a final wide string of one or more unrecognized wide characters, - including the terminating null wide character of the input wide string. Then, they attempt - to convert the subject sequence to a floating-point number, and return the result. -3 The expected form of the subject sequence is an optional plus or minus sign, then one of - the following: - -- a nonempty sequence of decimal digits optionally containing a decimal-point wide - character, then an optional exponent part as defined for the corresponding single-byte - characters in 6.4.4.2; - -- a 0x or 0X, then a nonempty sequence of hexadecimal digits optionally containing a - decimal-point wide character, then an optional binary exponent part as defined in - 6.4.4.2; - -- INF or INFINITY, or any other wide string equivalent except for case - -- NAN or NAN(n-wchar-sequenceopt), or any other wide string equivalent except for - case in the NAN part, where: - n-wchar-sequence: - digit - nondigit - n-wchar-sequence digit - n-wchar-sequence nondigit - The subject sequence is defined as the longest initial subsequence of the input wide - string, starting with the first non-white-space wide character, that is of the expected form. -[page 423] (Contents) - - The subject sequence contains no wide characters if the input wide string is not of the - expected form. -4 If the subject sequence has the expected form for a floating-point number, the sequence of - wide characters starting with the first digit or the decimal-point wide character - (whichever occurs first) is interpreted as a floating constant according to the rules of - 6.4.4.2, except that the decimal-point wide character is used in place of a period, and that - if neither an exponent part nor a decimal-point wide character appears in a decimal - floating point number, or if a binary exponent part does not appear in a hexadecimal - floating point number, an exponent part of the appropriate type with value zero is - assumed to follow the last digit in the string. If the subject sequence begins with a minus - sign, the sequence is interpreted as negated.330) A wide character sequence INF or - INFINITY is interpreted as an infinity, if representable in the return type, else like a - floating constant that is too large for the range of the return type. A wide character - sequence NAN or NAN(n-wchar-sequenceopt) is interpreted as a quiet NaN, if supported - in the return type, else like a subject sequence part that does not have the expected form; - the meaning of the n-wchar sequences is implementation-defined.331) A pointer to the - final wide string is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided that endptr is - not a null pointer. -5 If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form and FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the - value resulting from the conversion is correctly rounded. -6 In other than the "C" locale, additional locale-specific subject sequence forms may be - accepted. -7 If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form, no conversion is - performed; the value of nptr is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided - that endptr is not a null pointer. - Recommended practice -8 If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form, FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, and - the result is not exactly representable, the result should be one of the two numbers in the - appropriate internal format that are adjacent to the hexadecimal floating source value, - with the extra stipulation that the error should have a correct sign for the current rounding - direction. - - - - 330) It is unspecified whether a minus-signed sequence is converted to a negative number directly or by - negating the value resulting from converting the corresponding unsigned sequence (see F.5); the two - methods may yield different results if rounding is toward positive or negative infinity.

The third argument points to a caller-provided wchar_t pointer into - which the wcstok function stores information necessary for it to continue scanning the - same wide string. -3 The first call in a sequence has a non-null first argument and stores an initial value in the - object pointed to by ptr. Subsequent calls in the sequence have a null first argument and - the object pointed to by ptr is required to have the value stored by the previous call in - the sequence, which is then updated.

Otherwise, zero is returned and the contents of the array are - indeterminate. - 7.28.6 Extended multibyte/wide character conversion utilities -1 The header <wchar.h> declares an extended set of functions useful for conversion - between multibyte characters and wide characters. -2 Most of the following functions -- those that are listed as ''restartable'', 7.28.6.3 and - 7.28.6.4 -- take as a last argument a pointer to an object of type mbstate_t that is used - to describe the current conversion state from a particular multibyte character sequence to - a wide character sequence (or the reverse) under the rules of a particular setting for the - LC_CTYPE category of the current locale. -3 The initial conversion state corresponds, for a conversion in either direction, to the - beginning of a new multibyte character in the initial shift state. A zero-valued - mbstate_t object is (at least) one way to describe an initial conversion state. A zero- - valued mbstate_t object can be used to initiate conversion involving any multibyte - character sequence, in any LC_CTYPE category setting. If an mbstate_t object has - been altered by any of the functions described in this subclause, and is then used with a - different multibyte character sequence, or in the other conversion direction, or with a - different LC_CTYPE category setting than on earlier function calls, the behavior is - undefined.335) -4 On entry, each function takes the described conversion state (either internal or pointed to - by an argument) as current.

If ps is a null pointer, - each function uses its own internal mbstate_t object instead, which is initialized at - program startup to the initial conversion state; the functions are not required to avoid data - races in this case. The implementation behaves as if no library function calls these - functions with a null pointer for ps. -2 Also unlike their corresponding functions, the return value does not represent whether the - encoding is state-dependent. - 7.28.6.3.1 The mbrlen function - Synopsis -1 #include <wchar.h> - size_t mbrlen(const char * restrict s, - size_t n, - mbstate_t * restrict ps); - Description -2 The mbrlen function is equivalent to the call: - mbrtowc(NULL, s, n, ps != NULL ? ps : &internal) - where internal is the mbstate_t object for the mbrlen function, except that the - expression designated by ps is evaluated only once. - Returns -3 The mbrlen function returns a value between zero and n, inclusive, (size_t)(-2), - or (size_t)(-1). - Forward references: the mbrtowc function (7.28.6.3.2). - - - - -[page 439] (Contents) - - 7.28.6.3.2 The mbrtowc function - Synopsis -1 #include <wchar.h> - size_t mbrtowc(wchar_t * restrict pwc, - const char * restrict s, - size_t n, - mbstate_t * restrict ps); - Description -2 If s is a null pointer, the mbrtowc function is equivalent to the call: - mbrtowc(NULL, "", 1, ps) - In this case, the values of the parameters pwc and n are ignored. -3 If s is not a null pointer, the mbrtowc function inspects at most n bytes beginning with - the byte pointed to by s to determine the number of bytes needed to complete the next - multibyte character (including any shift sequences). If the function determines that the - next multibyte character is complete and valid, it determines the value of the - corresponding wide character and then, if pwc is not a null pointer, stores that value in - the object pointed to by pwc. If the corresponding wide character is the null wide - character, the resulting state described is the initial conversion state. - Returns -4 The mbrtowc function returns the first of the following that applies (given the current - conversion state): - 0 if the next n or fewer bytes complete the multibyte character that - corresponds to the null wide character (which is the value stored). - between 1 and n inclusive if the next n or fewer bytes complete a valid multibyte - character (which is the value stored); the value returned is the number - of bytes that complete the multibyte character. - (size_t)(-2) if the next n bytes contribute to an incomplete (but potentially valid) - multibyte character, and all n bytes have been processed (no value is - stored).336) - (size_t)(-1) if an encoding error occurs, in which case the next n or fewer bytes - do not contribute to a complete and valid multibyte character (no - value is stored); the value of the macro EILSEQ is stored in errno, - and the conversion state is unspecified. - - 336) When n has at least the value of the MB_CUR_MAX macro, this case can only occur if s points at a - sequence of redundant shift sequences (for implementations with state-dependent encodings). - -[page 440] (Contents) - - 7.28.6.3.3 The wcrtomb function - Synopsis -1 #include <wchar.h> - size_t wcrtomb(char * restrict s, - wchar_t wc, - mbstate_t * restrict ps); - Description -2 If s is a null pointer, the wcrtomb function is equivalent to the call - wcrtomb(buf, L'\0', ps) - where buf is an internal buffer. -3 If s is not a null pointer, the wcrtomb function determines the number of bytes needed - to represent the multibyte character that corresponds to the wide character given by wc - (including any shift sequences), and stores the multibyte character representation in the - array whose first element is pointed to by s. At most MB_CUR_MAX bytes are stored. If - wc is a null wide character, a null byte is stored, preceded by any shift sequence needed - to restore the initial shift state; the resulting state described is the initial conversion state. - Returns -4 The wcrtomb function returns the number of bytes stored in the array object (including - any shift sequences). When wc is not a valid wide character, an encoding error occurs: - the function stores the value of the macro EILSEQ in errno and returns - (size_t)(-1); the conversion state is unspecified. - 7.28.6.4 Restartable multibyte/wide string conversion functions -1 These functions differ from the corresponding multibyte string functions of 7.22.8 - (mbstowcs and wcstombs) in that they have an extra parameter, ps, of type pointer to - mbstate_t that points to an object that can completely describe the current conversion - state of the associated multibyte character sequence.

Moreover, if an identifier declared with internal + linkage is used in an expression (other than as a part of the operand of a sizeof + operator whose result is an integer constant), there shall be exactly one external definition + for the identifier in the translation unit. +

+ An external definition is an external declaration that is also a definition of a function + (other than an inline definition) or an object. If an identifier declared with external + linkage is used in an expression (other than as part of the operand of a sizeof operator + whose result is an integer constant), somewhere in the entire program there shall be + exactly one external definition for the identifier; otherwise, there shall be no more than + one.161) + + + + + + +

The declarations in the + declaration list shall contain no storage-class specifier other than register and no + initializations. + + + + +
Semantics +
+ The declarator in a function definition specifies the name of the function being defined + and the identifiers of its parameters. If the declarator includes a parameter type list, the + list also specifies the types of all the parameters; such a declarator also serves as a + function prototype for later calls to the same function in the same translation unit. If the + declarator includes an identifier list,163) the types of the parameters shall be declared in a + following declaration list. In either case, the type of each parameter is adjusted as + described in 6.7.6.3 for a parameter type list; the resulting type shall be a complete object + type. +
+ If a function that accepts a variable number of arguments is defined without a parameter + type list that ends with the ellipsis notation, the behavior is undefined. +
+ Each parameter has automatic storage duration; its identifier is an lvalue.164) The layout + of the storage for parameters is unspecified. +
+ On entry to the function, the size expressions of each variably modified parameter are + evaluated and the value of each argument expression is converted to the type of the + corresponding parameter as if by assignment. (Array expressions and function + designators as arguments were converted to pointers before the call.) +
+ After all parameters have been assigned, the compound statement that constitutes the + body of the function definition is executed. +
+ If the } that terminates a function is reached, and the value of the function call is used by + the caller, the behavior is undefined. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 In the following: +
+ extern int max(int a, int b) + { + return a > b ? a : b; + } ++ extern is the storage-class specifier and int is the type specifier; max(int a, int b) is the + function declarator; and +
+ { return a > b ? a : b; } ++ is the function body. The following similar definition uses the identifier-list form for the parameter + declarations: + + + + + +
+ extern int max(a, b) + int a, b; + { + return a > b ? a : b; + } ++ Here int a, b; is the declaration list for the parameters. The difference between these two definitions is + that the first form acts as a prototype declaration that forces conversion of the arguments of subsequent calls + to the function, whereas the second form does not. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 To pass one function to another, one might say +
+ int f(void); + /* ... */ + g(f); ++ Then the definition of g might read +
+ void g(int (*funcp)(void)) + { + /* ... */ + (*funcp)(); /* or funcp(); ... */ + } ++ or, equivalently, +

Description +
+ A preprocessing directive consists of a sequence of preprocessing tokens that satisfies the + following constraints: The first token in the sequence is a # preprocessing token that (at + the start of translation phase 4) is either the first character in the source file (optionally + after white space containing no new-line characters) or that follows white space + containing at least one new-line character. The last token in the sequence is the first new- + line character that follows the first token in the sequence.165) A new-line character ends + the preprocessing directive even if it occurs within what would otherwise be an + + + invocation of a function-like macro. +
+ A text line shall not begin with a # preprocessing token. A non-directive shall not begin + with any of the directive names appearing in the syntax. +
+ When in a group that is skipped (6.10.1), the directive syntax is relaxed to allow any + sequence of preprocessing tokens to occur between the directive name and the following + new-line character. +
Constraints +
+ The only white-space characters that shall appear between preprocessing tokens within a + preprocessing directive (from just after the introducing # preprocessing token through + just before the terminating new-line character) are space and horizontal-tab (including + spaces that have replaced comments or possibly other white-space characters in + translation phase 3). +
Semantics +
+ The implementation can process and skip sections of source files conditionally, include + other source files, and replace macros. These capabilities are called preprocessing, + because conceptually they occur before translation of the resulting translation unit. +
+ The preprocessing tokens within a preprocessing directive are not subject to macro + expansion unless otherwise stated. +
+ EXAMPLE In: +
+ #define EMPTY + EMPTY # include <file.h> ++ the sequence of preprocessing tokens on the second line is not a preprocessing directive, because it does not + begin with a # at the start of translation phase 4, even though it will do so after the macro EMPTY has been + replaced. + + +
Footnotes +
165) Thus, preprocessing directives are commonly called ''lines''. These ''lines'' have no other syntactic + significance, as all white space is equivalent except in certain situations during preprocessing (see the + # character string literal creation operator in 6.10.3.2, for example). + + +
Contents +
Constraints +
+ The expression that controls conditional inclusion shall be an integer constant expression + except that: identifiers (including those lexically identical to keywords) are interpreted as * + described below;166) and it may contain unary operator expressions of the form +
+ defined identifier ++ or +
+ defined ( identifier ) ++ which evaluate to 1 if the identifier is currently defined as a macro name (that is, if it is + + + + predefined or if it has been the subject of a #define preprocessing directive without an + intervening #undef directive with the same subject identifier), 0 if it is not. +
+ Each preprocessing token that remains (in the list of preprocessing tokens that will + become the controlling expression) after all macro replacements have occurred shall be in + the lexical form of a token (6.4). +
Semantics +
+ Preprocessing directives of the forms +
+ # if constant-expression new-line groupopt + # elif constant-expression new-line groupopt ++ check whether the controlling constant expression evaluates to nonzero. +
+ Prior to evaluation, macro invocations in the list of preprocessing tokens that will become + the controlling constant expression are replaced (except for those macro names modified + by the defined unary operator), just as in normal text. If the token defined is + generated as a result of this replacement process or use of the defined unary operator + does not match one of the two specified forms prior to macro replacement, the behavior is + undefined. After all replacements due to macro expansion and the defined unary + operator have been performed, all remaining identifiers (including those lexically + identical to keywords) are replaced with the pp-number 0, and then each preprocessing + token is converted into a token. The resulting tokens compose the controlling constant + expression which is evaluated according to the rules of 6.6. For the purposes of this + token conversion and evaluation, all signed integer types and all unsigned integer types + act as if they have the same representation as, respectively, the types intmax_t and + uintmax_t defined in the header <stdint.h>.167) This includes interpreting + character constants, which may involve converting escape sequences into execution + character set members. Whether the numeric value for these character constants matches + the value obtained when an identical character constant occurs in an expression (other + than within a #if or #elif directive) is implementation-defined.168) Also, whether a + single-character character constant may have a negative value is implementation-defined. + + + + + +
+ Preprocessing directives of the forms +
+ # ifdef identifier new-line groupopt + # ifndef identifier new-line groupopt ++ check whether the identifier is or is not currently defined as a macro name. Their + conditions are equivalent to #if defined identifier and #if !defined identifier + respectively. +
+ Each directive's condition is checked in order. If it evaluates to false (zero), the group + that it controls is skipped: directives are processed only through the name that determines + the directive in order to keep track of the level of nested conditionals; the rest of the + directives' preprocessing tokens are ignored, as are the other preprocessing tokens in the + group. Only the first group whose control condition evaluates to true (nonzero) is + processed. If none of the conditions evaluates to true, and there is a #else directive, the + group controlled by the #else is processed; lacking a #else directive, all the groups + until the #endif are skipped.169) +
Forward references: macro replacement (6.10.3), source file inclusion (6.10.2), largest + integer types (7.20.1.5). + +
Footnotes +
166) Because the controlling constant expression is evaluated during translation phase 4, all identifiers + either are or are not macro names -- there simply are no keywords, enumeration constants, etc. + +
167) Thus, on an implementation where INT_MAX is 0x7FFF and UINT_MAX is 0xFFFF, the constant + 0x8000 is signed and positive within a #if expression even though it would be unsigned in + translation phase 7. + +
168) Thus, the constant expression in the following #if directive and if statement is not guaranteed to + evaluate to the same value in these two contexts. + #if 'z' - 'a' == 25 + if ('z' - 'a' == 25) + +
169) As indicated by the syntax, a preprocessing token shall not follow a #else or #endif directive + before the terminating new-line character. However, comments may appear anywhere in a source file, + including within a preprocessing directive. + + +
Contents +
Constraints +
+ A #include directive shall identify a header or source file that can be processed by the + implementation. +
Semantics +
+ A preprocessing directive of the form +
+ # include <h-char-sequence> new-line ++ searches a sequence of implementation-defined places for a header identified uniquely by + the specified sequence between the < and > delimiters, and causes the replacement of that + directive by the entire contents of the header. How the places are specified or the header + identified is implementation-defined. +
+ A preprocessing directive of the form +
+ # include "q-char-sequence" new-line ++ causes the replacement of that directive by the entire contents of the source file identified + by the specified sequence between the " delimiters. The named source file is searched + + + + for in an implementation-defined manner. If this search is not supported, or if the search + fails, the directive is reprocessed as if it read +
+ # include <h-char-sequence> new-line ++ with the identical contained sequence (including > characters, if any) from the original + directive. +
+ A preprocessing directive of the form +
+ # include pp-tokens new-line ++ (that does not match one of the two previous forms) is permitted. The preprocessing + tokens after include in the directive are processed just as in normal text. (Each + identifier currently defined as a macro name is replaced by its replacement list of + preprocessing tokens.) The directive resulting after all replacements shall match one of + the two previous forms.170) The method by which a sequence of preprocessing tokens + between a < and a > preprocessing token pair or a pair of " characters is combined into a + single header name preprocessing token is implementation-defined. +
+ The implementation shall provide unique mappings for sequences consisting of one or + more nondigits or digits (6.4.2.1) followed by a period (.) and a single nondigit. The + first character shall not be a digit. The implementation may ignore distinctions of + alphabetical case and restrict the mapping to eight significant characters before the + period. +
+ A #include preprocessing directive may appear in a source file that has been read + because of a #include directive in another file, up to an implementation-defined + nesting limit (see 5.2.4.1). +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The most common uses of #include preprocessing directives are as in the following: +
+ #include <stdio.h> + #include "myprog.h" ++ + + + + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 This illustrates macro-replaced #include directives: +
+ #if VERSION == 1 + #define INCFILE "vers1.h" + #elif VERSION == 2 + #define INCFILE "vers2.h" // and so on + #else + #define INCFILE "versN.h" + #endif + #include INCFILE ++ +

The parameters are specified by the optional list of identifiers, whose scope + extends from their declaration in the identifier list until the new-line character that + terminates the #define preprocessing directive. Each subsequent instance of the + function-like macro name followed by a ( as the next preprocessing token introduces the + sequence of preprocessing tokens that is replaced by the replacement list in the definition + (an invocation of the macro). The replaced sequence of preprocessing tokens is + terminated by the matching ) preprocessing token, skipping intervening matched pairs of + left and right parenthesis preprocessing tokens. Within the sequence of preprocessing + tokens making up an invocation of a function-like macro, new-line is considered a normal + white-space character. +
+ The sequence of preprocessing tokens bounded by the outside-most matching parentheses + forms the list of arguments for the function-like macro. The individual arguments within + the list are separated by comma preprocessing tokens, but comma preprocessing tokens + between matching inner parentheses do not separate arguments. If there are sequences of + preprocessing tokens within the list of arguments that would otherwise act as + preprocessing directives,172) the behavior is undefined. +
+ If there is a ... in the identifier-list in the macro definition, then the trailing arguments, + including any separating comma preprocessing tokens, are merged to form a single item: + + + + the variable arguments. The number of arguments so combined is such that, following + merger, the number of arguments is one more than the number of parameters in the macro + definition (excluding the ...). + +

171) Since, by macro-replacement time, all character constants and string literals are preprocessing tokens, + not sequences possibly containing identifier-like subsequences (see 5.1.1.2, translation phases), they + are never scanned for macro names or parameters. + +
172) Despite the name, a non-directive is a preprocessing directive. + + +
Contents +
+ After the arguments for the invocation of a function-like macro have been identified, + argument substitution takes place. A parameter in the replacement list, unless preceded + by a # or ## preprocessing token or followed by a ## preprocessing token (see below), is + replaced by the corresponding argument after all macros contained therein have been + expanded. Before being substituted, each argument's preprocessing tokens are + completely macro replaced as if they formed the rest of the preprocessing file; no other + preprocessing tokens are available. +
+ An identifier __VA_ARGS__ that occurs in the replacement list shall be treated as if it + were a parameter, and the variable arguments shall form the preprocessing tokens used to + replace it. + +
Contents +
Constraints +
+ Each # preprocessing token in the replacement list for a function-like macro shall be + followed by a parameter as the next preprocessing token in the replacement list. +
Semantics +
+ If, in the replacement list, a parameter is immediately preceded by a # preprocessing + token, both are replaced by a single character string literal preprocessing token that + contains the spelling of the preprocessing token sequence for the corresponding + argument. Each occurrence of white space between the argument's preprocessing tokens + becomes a single space character in the character string literal. White space before the + first preprocessing token and after the last preprocessing token composing the argument + is deleted. Otherwise, the original spelling of each preprocessing token in the argument + is retained in the character string literal, except for special handling for producing the + spelling of string literals and character constants: a \ character is inserted before each " + and \ character of a character constant or string literal (including the delimiting " + characters), except that it is implementation-defined whether a \ character is inserted + before the \ character beginning a universal character name. If the replacement that + results is not a valid character string literal, the behavior is undefined. The character + string literal corresponding to an empty argument is "". The order of evaluation of # and + ## operators is unspecified. + + +

+ A ## preprocessing token shall not occur at the beginning or at the end of a replacement + list for either form of macro definition. +
Semantics +
+ If, in the replacement list of a function-like macro, a parameter is immediately preceded + or followed by a ## preprocessing token, the parameter is replaced by the corresponding + argument's preprocessing token sequence; however, if an argument consists of no + preprocessing tokens, the parameter is replaced by a placemarker preprocessing token + instead.173) +
+ For both object-like and function-like macro invocations, before the replacement list is + reexamined for more macro names to replace, each instance of a ## preprocessing token + in the replacement list (not from an argument) is deleted and the preceding preprocessing + token is concatenated with the following preprocessing token. Placemarker + preprocessing tokens are handled specially: concatenation of two placemarkers results in + a single placemarker preprocessing token, and concatenation of a placemarker with a + non-placemarker preprocessing token results in the non-placemarker preprocessing token. + If the result is not a valid preprocessing token, the behavior is undefined. The resulting + token is available for further macro replacement. The order of evaluation of ## operators + is unspecified. +
+ EXAMPLE In the following fragment: +
+ #define hash_hash # ## # + #define mkstr(a) # a + #define in_between(a) mkstr(a) + #define join(c, d) in_between(c hash_hash d) + char p[] = join(x, y); // equivalent to + // char p[] = "x ## y"; ++ The expansion produces, at various stages: +
+ join(x, y) + in_between(x hash_hash y) + in_between(x ## y) + mkstr(x ## y) + "x ## y" ++ In other words, expanding hash_hash produces a new token, consisting of two adjacent sharp signs, but + this new token is not the ## operator. + + + + +
Footnotes +
173) Placemarker preprocessing tokens do not appear in the syntax because they are temporary entities that + exist only within translation phase 4. + + +
Contents +
+ After all parameters in the replacement list have been substituted and # and ## + processing has taken place, all placemarker preprocessing tokens are removed. The + resulting preprocessing token sequence is then rescanned, along with all subsequent + preprocessing tokens of the source file, for more macro names to replace. +
+ If the name of the macro being replaced is found during this scan of the replacement list + (not including the rest of the source file's preprocessing tokens), it is not replaced. + Furthermore, if any nested replacements encounter the name of the macro being replaced, + it is not replaced. These nonreplaced macro name preprocessing tokens are no longer + available for further replacement even if they are later (re)examined in contexts in which + that macro name preprocessing token would otherwise have been replaced. +
+ The resulting completely macro-replaced preprocessing token sequence is not processed + as a preprocessing directive even if it resembles one, but all pragma unary operator + expressions within it are then processed as specified in 6.10.9 below. + +
Contents +
+ A macro definition lasts (independent of block structure) until a corresponding #undef + directive is encountered or (if none is encountered) until the end of the preprocessing + translation unit. Macro definitions have no significance after translation phase 4. +
+ A preprocessing directive of the form +
+ # undef identifier new-line ++ causes the specified identifier no longer to be defined as a macro name. It is ignored if + the specified identifier is not currently defined as a macro name. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The simplest use of this facility is to define a ''manifest constant'', as in +
+ #define TABSIZE 100 + int table[TABSIZE]; ++ +
+ EXAMPLE 2 The following defines a function-like macro whose value is the maximum of its arguments. + It has the advantages of working for any compatible types of the arguments and of generating in-line code + without the overhead of function calling. It has the disadvantages of evaluating one or the other of its + arguments a second time (including side effects) and generating more code than a function if invoked + several times. It also cannot have its address taken, as it has none. +
+ #define max(a, b) ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b)) ++ The parentheses ensure that the arguments and the resulting expression are bound properly. + +

+ A string is a contiguous sequence of characters terminated by and including the first null + character. The term multibyte string is sometimes used instead to emphasize special + processing given to multibyte characters contained in the string or to avoid confusion + with a wide string. A pointer to a string is a pointer to its initial (lowest addressed) + character. The length of a string is the number of bytes preceding the null character and + the value of a string is the sequence of the values of the contained characters, in order. +
+ The decimal-point character is the character used by functions that convert floating-point + numbers to or from character sequences to denote the beginning of the fractional part of + such character sequences.180) It is represented in the text and examples by a period, but + may be changed by the setlocale function. +
+ A null wide character is a wide character with code value zero. +
+ A wide string is a contiguous sequence of wide characters terminated by and including + the first null wide character. A pointer to a wide string is a pointer to its initial (lowest + addressed) wide character. The length of a wide string is the number of wide characters + preceding the null wide character and the value of a wide string is the sequence of code + values of the contained wide characters, in order. +
+ A shift sequence is a contiguous sequence of bytes within a multibyte string that + (potentially) causes a change in shift state (see 5.2.1.2). A shift sequence shall not have a + corresponding wide character; it is instead taken to be an adjunct to an adjacent multibyte + character.181) +

If a function argument is + described as being an array, the pointer actually passed to the function shall have a value + such that all address computations and accesses to objects (that would be valid if the + pointer did point to the first element of such an array) are in fact valid. Any function + declared in a header may be additionally implemented as a function-like macro defined in + the header, so if a library function is declared explicitly when its header is included, one + of the techniques shown below can be used to ensure the declaration is not affected by + such a macro. Any macro definition of a function can be suppressed locally by enclosing + the name of the function in parentheses, because the name is then not followed by the left + parenthesis that indicates expansion of a macro function name. For the same syntactic + reason, it is permitted to take the address of a library function even if it is also defined as + a macro.185) The use of #undef to remove any macro definition will also ensure that an + actual function is referred to. Any invocation of a library function that is implemented as + a macro shall expand to code that evaluates each of its arguments exactly once, fully + protected by parentheses where necessary, so it is generally safe to use arbitrary + expressions as arguments.186) Likewise, those function-like macros described in the + following subclauses may be invoked in an expression anywhere a function with a + compatible return type could be called.187) All object-like macros listed as expanding to + + + + integer constant expressions shall additionally be suitable for use in #if preprocessing + directives. +

A library + function shall not directly or indirectly modify objects accessible by threads other than + the current thread unless the objects are accessed directly or indirectly via the function's + non-const arguments.189) Implementations may share their own internal objects between + threads if the objects are not visible to users and are protected against data races. +
+ Unless otherwise specified, library functions shall perform all operations solely within the + current thread if those operations have effects that are visible to users.190) +
+ EXAMPLE The function atoi may be used in any of several ways: +
+ #include <stdlib.h> + const char *str; + /* ... */ + i = atoi(str); ++
+ #include <stdlib.h> + #undef atoi + const char *str; + /* ... */ + i = atoi(str); ++ or +
+ #include <stdlib.h> + const char *str; + /* ... */ + i = (atoi)(str); ++
+ extern int atoi(const char *); + const char *str; + /* ... */ + i = atoi(str); ++
Footnotes +
185) This means that an implementation shall provide an actual function for each library function, even if it + also provides a macro for that function. + +
186) Such macros might not contain the sequence points that the corresponding function calls do. + +
187) Because external identifiers and some macro names beginning with an underscore are reserved,
+ implementations may provide special semantics for such names. For example, the identifier
+ _BUILTIN_abs could be used to indicate generation of in-line code for the abs function. Thus, the
+ appropriate header could specify
+
+
+ #define abs(x) _BUILTIN_abs(x)
+
+ for a compiler whose code generator will accept it.
+ In this manner, a user desiring to guarantee that a given library function such as abs will be a genuine
+ function may write
+
+
+ #undef abs
+
+ whether the implementation's header provides a macro implementation of abs or a built-in
+ implementation. The prototype for the function, which precedes and is hidden by any macro
+ definition, is thereby revealed also.
+
+
188) Thus, a signal handler cannot, in general, call standard library functions. + +
189) This means, for example, that an implementation is not permitted to use a static object for internal + purposes without synchronization because it could cause a data race even in programs that do not + explicitly share objects between threads. + +
190) This allows implementations to parallelize operations if there are no visible side effects. + + +

Description +
+ The assert macro puts diagnostic tests into programs; it expands to a void expression. + When it is executed, if expression (which shall have a scalar type) is false (that is, + compares equal to 0), the assert macro writes information about the particular call that + failed (including the text of the argument, the name of the source file, the source line + number, and the name of the enclosing function -- the latter are respectively the values of + the preprocessing macros __FILE__ and __LINE__ and of the identifier + __func__) on the standard error stream in an implementation-defined format.191) It + then calls the abort function. + + + + +
Returns +
+ The assert macro returns no value. +

+ The header <complex.h> defines macros and declares functions that support complex + arithmetic.192) +
+ Implementations that define the macro __STDC_NO_COMPLEX__ need not provide + this header nor support any of its facilities. +
+ Each synopsis specifies a family of functions consisting of a principal function with one + or more double complex parameters and a double complex or double return + value; and other functions with the same name but with f and l suffixes which are + corresponding functions with float and long double parameters and return values. +
+ The macro +
+ complex ++ expands to _Complex; the macro +
+ _Complex_I ++ expands to a constant expression of type const float _Complex, with the value of + the imaginary unit.193) +
+ The macros +
+ imaginary ++ and +
+ _Imaginary_I ++ are defined if and only if the implementation supports imaginary types;194) if defined, + they expand to _Imaginary and a constant expression of type const float + _Imaginary with the value of the imaginary unit. +
+ The macro +
+ I ++ expands to either _Imaginary_I or _Complex_I. If _Imaginary_I is not + defined, I shall expand to _Complex_I. +

+ Some of the functions below have branch cuts, across which the function is + discontinuous. For implementations with a signed zero (including all IEC 60559 + implementations) that follow the specifications of annex G, the sign of zero distinguishes + one side of a cut from another so the function is continuous (except for format + limitations) as the cut is approached from either side. For example, for the square root + function, which has a branch cut along the negative real axis, the top of the cut, with + imaginary part +0, maps to the positive imaginary axis, and the bottom of the cut, with + imaginary part -0, maps to the negative imaginary axis. +
+ Implementations that do not support a signed zero (see annex F) cannot distinguish the + sides of branch cuts. These implementations shall map a cut so the function is continuous + as the cut is approached coming around the finite endpoint of the cut in a counter + clockwise direction. (Branch cuts for the functions specified here have just one finite + endpoint.) For example, for the square root function, coming counter clockwise around + the finite endpoint of the cut along the negative real axis approaches the cut from above, + so the cut maps to the positive imaginary axis. + +

Description +
+ The usual mathematical formulas for complex multiply, divide, and absolute value are + problematic because of their treatment of infinities and because of undue overflow and + underflow. The CX_LIMITED_RANGE pragma can be used to inform the + implementation that (where the state is ''on'') the usual mathematical formulas are + acceptable.195) The pragma can occur either outside external declarations or preceding all + explicit declarations and statements inside a compound statement. When outside external + declarations, the pragma takes effect from its occurrence until another + CX_LIMITED_RANGE pragma is encountered, or until the end of the translation unit. + When inside a compound statement, the pragma takes effect from its occurrence until + another CX_LIMITED_RANGE pragma is encountered (including within a nested + compound statement), or until the end of the compound statement; at the end of a + compound statement the state for the pragma is restored to its condition just before the + + compound statement. If this pragma is used in any other context, the behavior is + undefined. The default state for the pragma is ''off''. + +

+ The header <errno.h> defines several macros, all relating to the reporting of error + conditions. +
+ The macros are +
+ EDOM + EILSEQ + ERANGE ++ which expand to integer constant expressions with type int, distinct positive values, and + which are suitable for use in #if preprocessing directives; and +
+ errno ++ which expands to a modifiable lvalue201) that has type int and thread local storage + duration, the value of which is set to a positive error number by several library functions. + If a macro definition is suppressed in order to access an actual object, or a program + defines an identifier with the name errno, the behavior is undefined. +
+ The value of errno in the initial thread is zero at program startup (the initial value of + errno in other threads is an indeterminate value), but is never set to zero by any library + function.202) The value of errno may be set to nonzero by a library function call + whether or not there is an error, provided the use of errno is not documented in the + description of the function in this International Standard. +
+ Additional macro definitions, beginning with E and a digit or E and an uppercase + letter,203) may also be specified by the implementation. + + + + + + +
Footnotes +
201) The macro errno need not be the identifier of an object. It might expand to a modifiable lvalue + resulting from a function call (for example, *errno()). + +
202) Thus, a program that uses errno for error checking should set it to zero before a library function call, + then inspect it before a subsequent library function call. Of course, a library function can save the + value of errno on entry and then set it to zero, as long as the original value is restored if errno's + value is still zero just before the return. + +

Contents +
+ The header <fenv.h> defines several macros, and declares types and functions that + provide access to the floating-point environment. The floating-point environment refers + collectively to any floating-point status flags and control modes supported by the + implementation.204) A floating-point status flag is a system variable whose value is set + (but never cleared) when a floating-point exception is raised, which occurs as a side effect + of exceptional floating-point arithmetic to provide auxiliary information.205) A floating- + point control mode is a system variable whose value may be set by the user to affect the + subsequent behavior of floating-point arithmetic. +
+ The floating-point environment has thread storage duration. The initial state for a + thread's floating-point environment is the current state of the floating-point environment + of the thread that creates it at the time of creation. +
+ Certain programming conventions support the intended model of use for the floating- + point environment:206) +
+ The type +
+ fenv_t ++ represents the entire floating-point environment. +
+ The type +
+ fexcept_t ++ represents the floating-point status flags collectively, including any status the + implementation associates with the flags. + + + +
+ Each of the macros +
+ FE_DIVBYZERO + FE_INEXACT + FE_INVALID + FE_OVERFLOW + FE_UNDERFLOW ++ is defined if and only if the implementation supports the floating-point exception by + means of the functions in 7.6.2.207) Additional implementation-defined floating-point + exceptions, with macro definitions beginning with FE_ and an uppercase letter, may also + be specified by the implementation. The defined macros expand to integer constant + expressions with values such that bitwise ORs of all combinations of the macros result in + distinct values, and furthermore, bitwise ANDs of all combinations of the macros result in + zero.208) +
+ The macro +
+ FE_ALL_EXCEPT ++ is simply the bitwise OR of all floating-point exception macros defined by the + implementation. If no such macros are defined, FE_ALL_EXCEPT shall be defined as 0. +
+ Each of the macros +
+ FE_DOWNWARD + FE_TONEAREST + FE_TOWARDZERO + FE_UPWARD ++ is defined if and only if the implementation supports getting and setting the represented + rounding direction by means of the fegetround and fesetround functions. + Additional implementation-defined rounding directions, with macro definitions beginning + with FE_ and an uppercase letter, may also be specified by the implementation. The + defined macros expand to integer constant expressions whose values are distinct + nonnegative values.209) +
+ The macro + + + + +
+ FE_DFL_ENV ++ represents the default floating-point environment -- the one installed at program startup +
+ Additional implementation-defined environments, with macro definitions beginning with + FE_ and an uppercase letter, and having type ''pointer to const-qualified fenv_t'', may + also be specified by the implementation. + +
Footnotes +
204) This header is designed to support the floating-point exception status flags and directed-rounding + control modes required by IEC 60559, and other similar floating-point state information. It is also + designed to facilitate code portability among all systems. + +
205) A floating-point status flag is not an object and can be set more than once within an expression. + +
206) With these conventions, a programmer can safely assume default floating-point control modes (or be + unaware of them). The responsibilities associated with accessing the floating-point environment fall + on the programmer or program that does so explicitly. + +
207) The implementation supports a floating-point exception if there are circumstances where a call to at + least one of the functions in 7.6.2, using the macro as the appropriate argument, will succeed. It is not + necessary for all the functions to succeed all the time. + +
208) The macros should be distinct powers of two. + +
209) Even though the rounding direction macros may expand to constants corresponding to the values of + FLT_ROUNDS, they are not required to do so. + + +

+
+ #include <fenv.h> + #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS on-off-switch ++
Description +
+ The FENV_ACCESS pragma provides a means to inform the implementation when a + program might access the floating-point environment to test floating-point status flags or + run under non-default floating-point control modes.210) The pragma shall occur either + outside external declarations or preceding all explicit declarations and statements inside a + compound statement. When outside external declarations, the pragma takes effect from + its occurrence until another FENV_ACCESS pragma is encountered, or until the end of + the translation unit. When inside a compound statement, the pragma takes effect from its + occurrence until another FENV_ACCESS pragma is encountered (including within a + nested compound statement), or until the end of the compound statement; at the end of a + compound statement the state for the pragma is restored to its condition just before the + compound statement. If this pragma is used in any other context, the behavior is + undefined. If part of a program tests floating-point status flags, sets floating-point control + modes, or runs under non-default mode settings, but was translated with the state for the + FENV_ACCESS pragma ''off'', the behavior is undefined. The default state (''on'' or + ''off'') for the pragma is implementation-defined. (When execution passes from a part of + the program translated with FENV_ACCESS ''off'' to a part translated with + FENV_ACCESS ''on'', the state of the floating-point status flags is unspecified and the + floating-point control modes have their default settings.) + + + + + +
+ EXAMPLE +
+ #include <fenv.h> + void f(double x) + { + #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON + void g(double); + void h(double); + /* ... */ + g(x + 1); + h(x + 1); + /* ... */ + } ++
+ If the function g might depend on status flags set as a side effect of the first x + 1, or if the second + x + 1 might depend on control modes set as a side effect of the call to function g, then the program shall + contain an appropriately placed invocation of #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON.211) + + +
Footnotes +
210) The purpose of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is to allow certain optimizations that could subvert flag + tests and mode changes (e.g., global common subexpression elimination, code motion, and constant + folding). In general, if the state of FENV_ACCESS is ''off'', the translator can assume that default + modes are in effect and the flags are not tested. + +
211) The side effects impose a temporal ordering that requires two evaluations of x + 1. On the other + hand, without the #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON pragma, and assuming the default state is + ''off'', just one evaluation of x + 1 would suffice. + + +
Contents +
+ The following functions provide access to the floating-point status flags.212) The int + input argument for the functions represents a subset of floating-point exceptions, and can + be zero or the bitwise OR of one or more floating-point exception macros, for example + FE_OVERFLOW | FE_INEXACT. For other argument values the behavior of these + functions is undefined. + +
Footnotes +
212) The functions fetestexcept, feraiseexcept, and feclearexcept support the basic + abstraction of flags that are either set or clear. An implementation may endow floating-point status + flags with more information -- for example, the address of the code which first raised the floating- + point exception; the functions fegetexceptflag and fesetexceptflag deal with the full + content of flags. + + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <fenv.h> + int feclearexcept(int excepts); ++
Description +
+ The feclearexcept function attempts to clear the supported floating-point exceptions + represented by its argument. +
Returns +
+ The feclearexcept function returns zero if the excepts argument is zero or if all + the specified exceptions were successfully cleared. Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value. + + + + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <fenv.h> + int fegetexceptflag(fexcept_t *flagp, + int excepts); ++
Description +
+ The fegetexceptflag function attempts to store an implementation-defined + representation of the states of the floating-point status flags indicated by the argument + excepts in the object pointed to by the argument flagp. +
Returns +
+ The fegetexceptflag function returns zero if the representation was successfully + stored. Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value. + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <fenv.h> + int feraiseexcept(int excepts); ++
Description +
+ The feraiseexcept function attempts to raise the supported floating-point exceptions + represented by its argument.213) The order in which these floating-point exceptions are + raised is unspecified, except as stated in F.8.6. Whether the feraiseexcept function + additionally raises the ''inexact'' floating-point exception whenever it raises the + ''overflow'' or ''underflow'' floating-point exception is implementation-defined. +
Returns +
+ The feraiseexcept function returns zero if the excepts argument is zero or if all + the specified exceptions were successfully raised. Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value. + + + + + + +
Footnotes +
213) The effect is intended to be similar to that of floating-point exceptions raised by arithmetic operations. + Hence, enabled traps for floating-point exceptions raised by this function are taken. The specification + in F.8.6 is in the same spirit. + + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <fenv.h> + int fesetexceptflag(const fexcept_t *flagp, + int excepts); ++
Description +
+ The fesetexceptflag function attempts to set the floating-point status flags + indicated by the argument excepts to the states stored in the object pointed to by + flagp. The value of *flagp shall have been set by a previous call to + fegetexceptflag whose second argument represented at least those floating-point + exceptions represented by the argument excepts. This function does not raise floating- + point exceptions, but only sets the state of the flags. +
Returns +
+ The fesetexceptflag function returns zero if the excepts argument is zero or if + all the specified flags were successfully set to the appropriate state. Otherwise, it returns + a nonzero value. + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <fenv.h> + int fetestexcept(int excepts); ++
Description +
+ The fetestexcept function determines which of a specified subset of the floating- + point exception flags are currently set. The excepts argument specifies the floating- + point status flags to be queried.214) +
Returns +
+ The fetestexcept function returns the value of the bitwise OR of the floating-point + exception macros corresponding to the currently set floating-point exceptions included in + excepts. +
+ EXAMPLE Call f if ''invalid'' is set, then g if ''overflow'' is set: + + + + + +
+ #include <fenv.h> + /* ... */ + { + #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON + int set_excepts; + feclearexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_OVERFLOW); + // maybe raise exceptions + set_excepts = fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_OVERFLOW); + if (set_excepts & FE_INVALID) f(); + if (set_excepts & FE_OVERFLOW) g(); + /* ... */ + } ++ + +

+ The fegetround and fesetround functions provide control of rounding direction + modes. + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <fenv.h> + int fegetround(void); ++
Description +
+ The fegetround function gets the current rounding direction. +
Returns +
+ The fegetround function returns the value of the rounding direction macro + representing the current rounding direction or a negative value if there is no such + rounding direction macro or the current rounding direction is not determinable. + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <fenv.h> + int fesetround(int round); ++
Description +
+ The fesetround function establishes the rounding direction represented by its + argument round. If the argument is not equal to the value of a rounding direction macro, + the rounding direction is not changed. +
Returns +
+ The fesetround function returns zero if and only if the requested rounding direction + was established. + +
+ EXAMPLE Save, set, and restore the rounding direction. Report an error and abort if setting the + rounding direction fails. +
+ #include <fenv.h> + #include <assert.h> + void f(int round_dir) + { + #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON + int save_round; + int setround_ok; + save_round = fegetround(); + setround_ok = fesetround(round_dir); + assert(setround_ok == 0); + /* ... */ + fesetround(save_round); + /* ... */ + } ++ + +

Synopsis +
+
+ #include <fenv.h> + int fegetenv(fenv_t *envp); ++
Description +
+ The fegetenv function attempts to store the current floating-point environment in the + object pointed to by envp. +
Returns +
+ The fegetenv function returns zero if the environment was successfully stored. + Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value. + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <fenv.h> + int feholdexcept(fenv_t *envp); ++
Description +
+ The feholdexcept function saves the current floating-point environment in the object + pointed to by envp, clears the floating-point status flags, and then installs a non-stop + (continue on floating-point exceptions) mode, if available, for all floating-point + exceptions.215) + +
Returns +
+ The feholdexcept function returns zero if and only if non-stop floating-point + exception handling was successfully installed. + +
Footnotes +
215) IEC 60559 systems have a default non-stop mode, and typically at least one other mode for trap + handling or aborting; if the system provides only the non-stop mode then installing it is trivial. For + such systems, the feholdexcept function can be used in conjunction with the feupdateenv + function to write routines that hide spurious floating-point exceptions from their callers. + + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <fenv.h> + int fesetenv(const fenv_t *envp); ++
Description +
+ The fesetenv function attempts to establish the floating-point environment represented + by the object pointed to by envp. The argument envp shall point to an object set by a + call to fegetenv or feholdexcept, or equal a floating-point environment macro. + Note that fesetenv merely installs the state of the floating-point status flags + represented through its argument, and does not raise these floating-point exceptions. +
Returns +
+ The fesetenv function returns zero if the environment was successfully established. + Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value. + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <fenv.h> + int feupdateenv(const fenv_t *envp); ++
Description +
+ The feupdateenv function attempts to save the currently raised floating-point + exceptions in its automatic storage, install the floating-point environment represented by + the object pointed to by envp, and then raise the saved floating-point exceptions. The + argument envp shall point to an object set by a call to feholdexcept or fegetenv, + or equal a floating-point environment macro. +
Returns +
+ The feupdateenv function returns zero if all the actions were successfully carried out. + Otherwise, it returns a nonzero value. + + + + + +
+ EXAMPLE Hide spurious underflow floating-point exceptions: + +
+ #include <fenv.h> + double f(double x) + { + #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON + double result; + fenv_t save_env; + if (feholdexcept(&save_env)) + return /* indication of an environmental problem */; + // compute result + if (/* test spurious underflow */) + if (feclearexcept(FE_UNDERFLOW)) + return /* indication of an environmental problem */; + if (feupdateenv(&save_env)) + return /* indication of an environmental problem */; + return result; + } ++ +

Contents +
+ Each of the following object-like macros expands to a character string literal containing a * + conversion specifier, possibly modified by a length modifier, suitable for use within the + format argument of a formatted input/output function when converting the corresponding + integer type. These macro names have the general form of PRI (character string literals + for the fprintf and fwprintf family) or SCN (character string literals for the + fscanf and fwscanf family),217) followed by the conversion specifier, followed by a + name corresponding to a similar type name in 7.20.1. In these names, N represents the + width of the type as described in 7.20.1. For example, PRIdFAST32 can be used in a + format string to print the value of an integer of type int_fast32_t. +
+ The fprintf macros for signed integers are: +

+ For each type that the implementation provides in <stdint.h>, the corresponding + fprintf macros shall be defined and the corresponding fscanf macros shall be + defined unless the implementation does not have a suitable fscanf length modifier for + the type. +
+ EXAMPLE +
+ #include <inttypes.h> + #include <wchar.h> + int main(void) + { + uintmax_t i = UINTMAX_MAX; // this type always exists + wprintf(L"The largest integer value is %020" + PRIxMAX "\n", i); + return 0; + } ++ + +

+ #include <locale.h> + char *setlocale(int category, const char *locale); ++
Description +
+ The setlocale function selects the appropriate portion of the program's locale as + specified by the category and locale arguments. The setlocale function may be + used to change or query the program's entire current locale or portions thereof. The value + LC_ALL for category names the program's entire locale; the other values for + category name only a portion of the program's locale. LC_COLLATE affects the + behavior of the strcoll and strxfrm functions. LC_CTYPE affects the behavior of + the character handling functions221) and the multibyte and wide character functions. + LC_MONETARY affects the monetary formatting information returned by the + localeconv function. LC_NUMERIC affects the decimal-point character for the + formatted input/output functions and the string conversion functions, as well as the + nonmonetary formatting information returned by the localeconv function. LC_TIME + affects the behavior of the strftime and wcsftime functions. +
+ A value of "C" for locale specifies the minimal environment for C translation; a value + of "" for locale specifies the locale-specific native environment. Other + implementation-defined strings may be passed as the second argument to setlocale. + + +
+ At program startup, the equivalent of +
+ setlocale(LC_ALL, "C"); ++ is executed. +
+ A call to the setlocale function may introduce a data race with other calls to the + setlocale function or with calls to functions that are affected by the current locale. + The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the setlocale function. +
Returns +
+ If a pointer to a string is given for locale and the selection can be honored, the + setlocale function returns a pointer to the string associated with the specified + category for the new locale. If the selection cannot be honored, the setlocale + function returns a null pointer and the program's locale is not changed. +
+ A null pointer for locale causes the setlocale function to return a pointer to the + string associated with the category for the program's current locale; the program's + locale is not changed.222) +
+ The pointer to string returned by the setlocale function is such that a subsequent call + with that string value and its associated category will restore that part of the program's + locale. The string pointed to shall not be modified by the program, but may be + overwritten by a subsequent call to the setlocale function. +
Forward references: formatted input/output functions (7.21.6), multibyte/wide + character conversion functions (7.22.7), multibyte/wide string conversion functions + (7.22.8), numeric conversion functions (7.22.1), the strcoll function (7.23.4.3), the + strftime function (7.26.3.5), the strxfrm function (7.23.4.5). + +

+ #include <locale.h> + struct lconv *localeconv(void); ++
Description +
+ The localeconv function sets the components of an object with type struct lconv + with values appropriate for the formatting of numeric quantities (monetary and otherwise) + according to the rules of the current locale. + + + + +
+ The members of the structure with type char * are pointers to strings, any of which + (except decimal_point) can point to "", to indicate that the value is not available in + the current locale or is of zero length. Apart from grouping and mon_grouping, the + strings shall start and end in the initial shift state. The members with type char are + nonnegative numbers, any of which can be CHAR_MAX to indicate that the value is not + available in the current locale. The members include the following: + char *decimal_point +
+ The decimal-point character used to format nonmonetary quantities. ++ char *thousands_sep +
+ The character used to separate groups of digits before the decimal-point + character in formatted nonmonetary quantities. ++ char *grouping +
+ A string whose elements indicate the size of each group of digits in + formatted nonmonetary quantities. ++ char *mon_decimal_point +
+ The decimal-point used to format monetary quantities. ++ char *mon_thousands_sep +
+ The separator for groups of digits before the decimal-point in formatted + monetary quantities. ++ char *mon_grouping +
+ A string whose elements indicate the size of each group of digits in + formatted monetary quantities. ++ char *positive_sign +
+ The string used to indicate a nonnegative-valued formatted monetary + quantity. ++ char *negative_sign +
+ The string used to indicate a negative-valued formatted monetary quantity. ++ char *currency_symbol +
+ The local currency symbol applicable to the current locale. ++ char frac_digits +
+ The number of fractional digits (those after the decimal-point) to be + displayed in a locally formatted monetary quantity. ++ char p_cs_precedes + +
+ Set to 1 or 0 if the currency_symbol respectively precedes or + succeeds the value for a nonnegative locally formatted monetary quantity. ++ char n_cs_precedes +
+ Set to 1 or 0 if the currency_symbol respectively precedes or + succeeds the value for a negative locally formatted monetary quantity. ++ char p_sep_by_space +
+ Set to a value indicating the separation of the currency_symbol, the + sign string, and the value for a nonnegative locally formatted monetary + quantity. ++ char n_sep_by_space +
+ Set to a value indicating the separation of the currency_symbol, the + sign string, and the value for a negative locally formatted monetary + quantity. ++ char p_sign_posn +
+ Set to a value indicating the positioning of the positive_sign for a + nonnegative locally formatted monetary quantity. ++ char n_sign_posn +
+ Set to a value indicating the positioning of the negative_sign for a + negative locally formatted monetary quantity. ++ char *int_curr_symbol +
+ The international currency symbol applicable to the current locale. The + first three characters contain the alphabetic international currency symbol + in accordance with those specified in ISO 4217. The fourth character + (immediately preceding the null character) is the character used to separate + the international currency symbol from the monetary quantity. ++ char int_frac_digits +
+ The number of fractional digits (those after the decimal-point) to be + displayed in an internationally formatted monetary quantity. ++ char int_p_cs_precedes +
+ Set to 1 or 0 if the int_curr_symbol respectively precedes or + succeeds the value for a nonnegative internationally formatted monetary + quantity. ++ char int_n_cs_precedes +
+ Set to 1 or 0 if the int_curr_symbol respectively precedes or + succeeds the value for a negative internationally formatted monetary + quantity. ++ char int_p_sep_by_space + +
+ Set to a value indicating the separation of the int_curr_symbol, the + sign string, and the value for a nonnegative internationally formatted + monetary quantity. ++ char int_n_sep_by_space +
+ Set to a value indicating the separation of the int_curr_symbol, the + sign string, and the value for a negative internationally formatted monetary + quantity. ++ char int_p_sign_posn +
+ Set to a value indicating the positioning of the positive_sign for a + nonnegative internationally formatted monetary quantity. ++ char int_n_sign_posn +
+ Set to a value indicating the positioning of the negative_sign for a + negative internationally formatted monetary quantity. ++
+ The elements of grouping and mon_grouping are interpreted according to the + following: + CHAR_MAX No further grouping is to be performed. + 0 The previous element is to be repeatedly used for the remainder of the +
+ digits. ++ other The integer value is the number of digits that compose the current group. +
+ The next element is examined to determine the size of the next group of + digits before the current group. ++
+ The values of p_sep_by_space, n_sep_by_space, int_p_sep_by_space, + and int_n_sep_by_space are interpreted according to the following: + 0 No space separates the currency symbol and value. + 1 If the currency symbol and sign string are adjacent, a space separates them from the +
+ value; otherwise, a space separates the currency symbol from the value. ++ 2 If the currency symbol and sign string are adjacent, a space separates them; +
+ otherwise, a space separates the sign string from the value. ++ For int_p_sep_by_space and int_n_sep_by_space, the fourth character of + int_curr_symbol is used instead of a space. +
+ The values of p_sign_posn, n_sign_posn, int_p_sign_posn, and + int_n_sign_posn are interpreted according to the following: + 0 Parentheses surround the quantity and currency symbol. + 1 The sign string precedes the quantity and currency symbol. + 2 The sign string succeeds the quantity and currency symbol. + 3 The sign string immediately precedes the currency symbol. + 4 The sign string immediately succeeds the currency symbol. + +
+ The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the localeconv + function. +
Returns +
+ The localeconv function returns a pointer to the filled-in object. The structure + pointed to by the return value shall not be modified by the program, but may be + overwritten by a subsequent call to the localeconv function. In addition, calls to the + setlocale function with categories LC_ALL, LC_MONETARY, or LC_NUMERIC may + overwrite the contents of the structure. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The following table illustrates rules which may well be used by four countries to format + monetary quantities. +

Contents +
+ The header <math.h> declares two types and many mathematical functions and defines + several macros. Most synopses specify a family of functions consisting of a principal + function with one or more double parameters, a double return value, or both; and + other functions with the same name but with f and l suffixes, which are corresponding + functions with float and long double parameters, return values, or both.223) + Integer arithmetic functions and conversion functions are discussed later. +
+ The types +
+ float_t + double_t ++ are floating types at least as wide as float and double, respectively, and such that + double_t is at least as wide as float_t. If FLT_EVAL_METHOD equals 0, + float_t and double_t are float and double, respectively; if + FLT_EVAL_METHOD equals 1, they are both double; if FLT_EVAL_METHOD equals + 2, they are both long double; and for other values of FLT_EVAL_METHOD, they are + otherwise implementation-defined.224) +
+ The macro +
+ HUGE_VAL ++ expands to a positive double constant expression, not necessarily representable as a + float. The macros +
+ HUGE_VALF + HUGE_VALL ++ are respectively float and long double analogs of HUGE_VAL.225) +
+ The macro +
+ INFINITY ++ expands to a constant expression of type float representing positive or unsigned + infinity, if available; else to a positive constant of type float that overflows at + + + + + translation time.226) +
+ The macro +
+ NAN ++ is defined if and only if the implementation supports quiet NaNs for the float type. It + expands to a constant expression of type float representing a quiet NaN. +
+ The number classification macros +
+ FP_INFINITE + FP_NAN + FP_NORMAL + FP_SUBNORMAL + FP_ZERO ++ represent the mutually exclusive kinds of floating-point values. They expand to integer + constant expressions with distinct values. Additional implementation-defined floating- + point classifications, with macro definitions beginning with FP_ and an uppercase letter, + may also be specified by the implementation. +
+ The macro +
+ FP_FAST_FMA ++ is optionally defined. If defined, it indicates that the fma function generally executes + about as fast as, or faster than, a multiply and an add of double operands.227) The + macros +
+ FP_FAST_FMAF + FP_FAST_FMAL ++ are, respectively, float and long double analogs of FP_FAST_FMA. If defined, + these macros expand to the integer constant 1. +
+ The macros +
+ FP_ILOGB0 + FP_ILOGBNAN ++ expand to integer constant expressions whose values are returned by ilogb(x) if x is + zero or NaN, respectively. The value of FP_ILOGB0 shall be either INT_MIN or + -INT_MAX. The value of FP_ILOGBNAN shall be either INT_MAX or INT_MIN. + + + +
+ The macros +
+ MATH_ERRNO + MATH_ERREXCEPT ++ expand to the integer constants 1 and 2, respectively; the macro +
+ math_errhandling ++ expands to an expression that has type int and the value MATH_ERRNO, + MATH_ERREXCEPT, or the bitwise OR of both. The value of math_errhandling is + constant for the duration of the program. It is unspecified whether + math_errhandling is a macro or an identifier with external linkage. If a macro + definition is suppressed or a program defines an identifier with the name + math_errhandling, the behavior is undefined. If the expression + math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT can be nonzero, the implementation + shall define the macros FE_DIVBYZERO, FE_INVALID, and FE_OVERFLOW in + <fenv.h>. + +
Footnotes +
223) Particularly on systems with wide expression evaluation, a <math.h> function might pass arguments + and return values in wider format than the synopsis prototype indicates. + +
224) The types float_t and double_t are intended to be the implementation's most efficient types at + least as wide as float and double, respectively. For FLT_EVAL_METHOD equal 0, 1, or 2, the + type float_t is the narrowest type used by the implementation to evaluate floating expressions. + +
225) HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, and HUGE_VALL can be positive infinities in an implementation that + supports infinities. + +
226) In this case, using INFINITY will violate the constraint in 6.4.4 and thus require a diagnostic. + +
227) Typically, the FP_FAST_FMA macro is defined if and only if the fma function is implemented + directly with a hardware multiply-add instruction. Software implementations are expected to be + substantially slower. + + +
Contents +
+ The behavior of each of the functions in <math.h> is specified for all representable + values of its input arguments, except where stated otherwise. Each function shall execute + as if it were a single operation without raising SIGFPE and without generating any of the + floating-point exceptions ''invalid'', ''divide-by-zero'', or ''overflow'' except to reflect + the result of the function. +
+ For all functions, a domain error occurs if an input argument is outside the domain over + which the mathematical function is defined. The description of each function lists any + required domain errors; an implementation may define additional domain errors, provided + that such errors are consistent with the mathematical definition of the function.228) On a + domain error, the function returns an implementation-defined value; if the integer + expression math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero, the integer expression + errno acquires the value EDOM; if the integer expression math_errhandling & + MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, the ''invalid'' floating-point exception is raised. +
+ Similarly, a pole error (also known as a singularity or infinitary) occurs if the + mathematical function has an exact infinite result as the finite input argument(s) are + approached in the limit (for example, log(0.0)). The description of each function lists + any required pole errors; an implementation may define additional pole errors, provided + that such errors are consistent with the mathematical definition of the function. On a pole + error, the function returns an implementation-defined value; if the integer expression + + + + math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero, the integer expression errno + acquires the value ERANGE; if the integer expression math_errhandling & + MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, the ''divide-by-zero'' floating-point exception is raised. +
+ Likewise, a range error occurs if the mathematical result of the function cannot be + represented in an object of the specified type, due to extreme magnitude. +
+ A floating result overflows if the magnitude of the mathematical result is finite but so + large that the mathematical result cannot be represented without extraordinary roundoff + error in an object of the specified type. If a floating result overflows and default rounding + is in effect, then the function returns the value of the macro HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, or * + HUGE_VALL according to the return type, with the same sign as the correct value of the + function; if the integer expression math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero, + the integer expression errno acquires the value ERANGE; if the integer expression + math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, the ''overflow'' floating- + point exception is raised. +
+ The result underflows if the magnitude of the mathematical result is so small that the + mathematical result cannot be represented, without extraordinary roundoff error, in an + object of the specified type.229) If the result underflows, the function returns an + implementation-defined value whose magnitude is no greater than the smallest + normalized positive number in the specified type; if the integer expression + math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is nonzero, whether errno acquires the + value ERANGE is implementation-defined; if the integer expression + math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT is nonzero, whether the ''underflow'' + floating-point exception is raised is implementation-defined. +
+ If a domain, pole, or range error occurs and the integer expression + math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO is zero,230) then errno shall either be set to + the value corresponding to the error or left unmodified. If no such error occurs, errno + shall be left unmodified regardless of the setting of math_errhandling. + + + + + + +
Footnotes +
228) In an implementation that supports infinities, this allows an infinity as an argument to be a domain + error if the mathematical domain of the function does not include the infinity. + +
229) The term underflow here is intended to encompass both ''gradual underflow'' as in IEC 60559 and + also ''flush-to-zero'' underflow. + +
230) Math errors are being indicated by the floating-point exception flags rather than by errno. + + +

+ #include <math.h> + #pragma STDC FP_CONTRACT on-off-switch ++
Description +
+ The FP_CONTRACT pragma can be used to allow (if the state is ''on'') or disallow (if the + state is ''off'') the implementation to contract expressions (6.5). Each pragma can occur + either outside external declarations or preceding all explicit declarations and statements + inside a compound statement. When outside external declarations, the pragma takes + effect from its occurrence until another FP_CONTRACT pragma is encountered, or until + the end of the translation unit. When inside a compound statement, the pragma takes + effect from its occurrence until another FP_CONTRACT pragma is encountered + (including within a nested compound statement), or until the end of the compound + statement; at the end of a compound statement the state for the pragma is restored to its + condition just before the compound statement. If this pragma is used in any other + context, the behavior is undefined. The default state (''on'' or ''off'') for the pragma is + implementation-defined. + +

+ The header <signal.h> declares a type and two functions and defines several macros, + for handling various signals (conditions that may be reported during program execution). +
+ The type defined is +
+ sig_atomic_t ++ which is the (possibly volatile-qualified) integer type of an object that can be accessed as + an atomic entity, even in the presence of asynchronous interrupts. +
+ The macros defined are +
+ SIG_DFL + SIG_ERR + SIG_IGN ++ which expand to constant expressions with distinct values that have type compatible with + the second argument to, and the return value of, the signal function, and whose values + compare unequal to the address of any declarable function; and the following, which + expand to positive integer constant expressions with type int and distinct values that are + the signal numbers, each corresponding to the specified condition: +

+ An implementation need not generate any of these signals, except as a result of explicit + calls to the raise function.

+ #include <signal.h> + void (*signal(int sig, void (*func)(int)))(int); ++
Description +
+ The signal function chooses one of three ways in which receipt of the signal number + sig is to be subsequently handled. If the value of func is SIG_DFL, default handling + for that signal will occur. If the value of func is SIG_IGN, the signal will be ignored. + Otherwise, func shall point to a function to be called when that signal occurs. An + invocation of such a function because of a signal, or (recursively) of any further functions + called by that invocation (other than functions in the standard library),248) is called a + signal handler. +
+ When a signal occurs and func points to a function, it is implementation-defined + whether the equivalent of signal(sig, SIG_DFL); is executed or the + implementation prevents some implementation-defined set of signals (at least including + sig) from occurring until the current signal handling has completed; in the case of + SIGILL, the implementation may alternatively define that no action is taken. Then the + equivalent of (*func)(sig); is executed. If and when the function returns, if the + value of sig is SIGFPE, SIGILL, SIGSEGV, or any other implementation-defined + value corresponding to a computational exception, the behavior is undefined; otherwise + the program will resume execution at the point it was interrupted. +
+ If the signal occurs as the result of calling the abort or raise function, the signal + handler shall not call the raise function. +
+ If the signal occurs other than as the result of calling the abort or raise function, the + behavior is undefined if the signal handler refers to any object with static or thread + storage duration that is not a lock-free atomic object other than by assigning a value to an + object declared as volatile sig_atomic_t, or the signal handler calls any function + in the standard library other than the abort function, the _Exit function, the + quick_exit function, or the signal function with the first argument equal to the + signal number corresponding to the signal that caused the invocation of the handler. + Furthermore, if such a call to the signal function results in a SIG_ERR return, the + value of errno is indeterminate.249) + + + +
+ At program startup, the equivalent of +
+ signal(sig, SIG_IGN); ++ may be executed for some signals selected in an implementation-defined manner; the + equivalent of +
+ signal(sig, SIG_DFL); ++ is executed for all other signals defined by the implementation. +
+ The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the signal function. +
Returns +
+ If the request can be honored, the signal function returns the value of func for the + most recent successful call to signal for the specified signal sig. Otherwise, a value of + SIG_ERR is returned and a positive value is stored in errno. +

+ va_list ++ which is a complete object type suitable for holding information needed by the macros + va_start, va_arg, va_end, and va_copy. If access to the varying arguments is + desired, the called function shall declare an object (generally referred to as ap in this + subclause) having type va_list. The object ap may be passed as an argument to + another function; if that function invokes the va_arg macro with parameter ap, the + value of ap in the calling function is indeterminate and shall be passed to the va_end + macro prior to any further reference to ap.250) + +

The + va_end macro may modify ap so that it is no longer usable (without being reinitialized + + by the va_start or va_copy macro). If there is no corresponding invocation of the + va_start or va_copy macro, or if the va_end macro is not invoked before the + return, the behavior is undefined. +

+ The parameter parmN is the identifier of the rightmost parameter in the variable + parameter list in the function definition (the one just before the , ...). If the parameter + parmN is declared with the register storage class, with a function or array type, or + with a type that is not compatible with the type that results after application of the default + argument promotions, the behavior is undefined. +

+ The enumerated type memory_order specifies the detailed regular (non-atomic) + memory synchronization operations as defined in 5.1.2.4 and may provide for operation + ordering. Its enumeration constants are as follows: +
+ memory_order_relaxed + memory_order_consume + memory_order_acquire + memory_order_release + memory_order_acq_rel + memory_order_seq_cst ++
+ For memory_order_relaxed, no operation orders memory. +
+ For memory_order_release, memory_order_acq_rel, and + memory_order_seq_cst, a store operation performs a release operation on the + affected memory location. +
+ For memory_order_acquire, memory_order_acq_rel, and + memory_order_seq_cst, a load operation performs an acquire operation on the + affected memory location. +
+ For memory_order_consume, a load operation performs a consume operation on the + affected memory location. +
+ For memory_order_seq_cst, there shall be a single total order S on all operations, + consistent with the ''happens before'' order and modification orders for all affected + locations, such that each memory_order_seq_cst operation that loads a value + observes either the last preceding modification according to this order S, or the result of + an operation that is not memory_order_seq_cst. +
+ NOTE 1 Although it is not explicitly required that S include lock operations, it can always be extended to + an order that does include lock and unlock operations, since the ordering between those is already included + in the ''happens before'' ordering. + +
+ NOTE 2 Atomic operations specifying memory_order_relaxed are relaxed only with respect to + memory ordering. Implementations must still guarantee that any given atomic access to a particular atomic + + object be indivisible with respect to all other atomic accesses to that object. + +
+ For an atomic operation B that reads the value of an atomic object M, if there is a + memory_order_seq_cst fence X sequenced before B, then B observes either the + last memory_order_seq_cst modification of M preceding X in the total order S or + a later modification of M in its modification order. +
+ For atomic operations A and B on an atomic object M, where A modifies M and B takes + its value, if there is a memory_order_seq_cst fence X such that A is sequenced + before X and B follows X in S, then B observes either the effects of A or a later + modification of M in its modification order. +
+ For atomic operations A and B on an atomic object M, where A modifies M and B takes + its value, if there are memory_order_seq_cst fences X and Y such that A is + sequenced before X, Y is sequenced before B, and X precedes Y in S, then B observes + either the effects of A or a later modification of M in its modification order. +
+ Atomic read-modify-write operations shall always read the last value (in the modification + order) stored before the write associated with the read-modify-write operation. +
+ An atomic store shall only store a value that has been computed from constants and + program input values by a finite sequence of program evaluations, such that each + evaluation observes the values of variables as computed by the last prior assignment in + the sequence.251) The ordering of evaluations in this sequence shall be such that +
+ NOTE 3 The second requirement disallows ''out-of-thin-air'', or ''speculative'' stores of atomics when + relaxed atomics are used. Since unordered operations are involved, evaluations may appear in this + sequence out of thread order. For example, with x and y initially zero, +

+ // Thread 2: + r2 = atomic_load_explicit(&x, memory_order_relaxed); + atomic_store_explicit(&y, r2, memory_order_relaxed); ++ is not allowed to produce r1 == 42 && r2 = 42, since there is no sequence of evaluations that results + in the computation of 42. In the absence of ''relaxed'' operations and read-modify-write operations with + weaker than memory_order_acq_rel ordering, the second requirement has no impact. + +
Recommended practice +
+ The requirements do not forbid r1 == 42 && r2 == 42 in the following example, + with x and y initially zero: +
+ // Thread 1: + r1 = atomic_load_explicit(&x, memory_order_relaxed); + if (r1 == 42) + atomic_store_explicit(&y, r1, memory_order_relaxed); ++ +
+ // Thread 2: + r2 = atomic_load_explicit(&y, memory_order_relaxed); + if (r2 == 42) + atomic_store_explicit(&x, 42, memory_order_relaxed); ++ However, this is not useful behavior, and implementations should not allow it. +

+ FILE ++ which is an object type capable of recording all the information needed to control a + stream, including its file position indicator, a pointer to its associated buffer (if any), an + error indicator that records whether a read/write error has occurred, and an end-of-file + indicator that records whether the end of the file has been reached; and +
+ fpos_t ++ which is a complete object type other than an array type capable of recording all the + information needed to specify uniquely every position within a file. +
+ The macros are NULL (described in 7.19); +
+ _IOFBF + _IOLBF + _IONBF ++ which expand to integer constant expressions with distinct values, suitable for use as the + third argument to the setvbuf function; +
+ BUFSIZ ++ which expands to an integer constant expression that is the size of the buffer used by the + setbuf function; +
+ EOF ++ which expands to an integer constant expression, with type int and a negative value, that + is returned by several functions to indicate end-of-file, that is, no more input from a + stream; +
+ FOPEN_MAX ++ which expands to an integer constant expression that is the minimum number of files that + the implementation guarantees can be open simultaneously; +
+ FILENAME_MAX ++ which expands to an integer constant expression that is the size needed for an array of + char large enough to hold the longest file name string that the implementation + + guarantees can be opened;258) +
+ L_tmpnam ++ which expands to an integer constant expression that is the size needed for an array of + char large enough to hold a temporary file name string generated by the tmpnam + function; +
+ SEEK_CUR + SEEK_END + SEEK_SET ++ which expand to integer constant expressions with distinct values, suitable for use as the + third argument to the fseek function; +
+ TMP_MAX ++ which expands to an integer constant expression that is the minimum number of unique + file names that can be generated by the tmpnam function; +
+ stderr + stdin + stdout ++ which are expressions of type ''pointer to FILE'' that point to the FILE objects + associated, respectively, with the standard error, input, and output streams. +
+ The header <wchar.h> declares a number of functions useful for wide character input + and output. The wide character input/output functions described in that subclause + provide operations analogous to most of those described here, except that the + fundamental units internal to the program are wide characters. The external + representation (in the file) is a sequence of ''generalized'' multibyte characters, as + described further in 7.21.3. +
+ The input/output functions are given the following collective terms: +
Forward references: files (7.21.3), the fseek function (7.21.9.2), streams (7.21.2), the + tmpnam function (7.21.4.4), <wchar.h> (7.28). + +
Footnotes +
258) If the implementation imposes no practical limit on the length of file name strings, the value of + FILENAME_MAX should instead be the recommended size of an array intended to hold a file name + string. Of course, file name string contents are subject to other system-specific constraints; therefore + all possible strings of length FILENAME_MAX cannot be expected to be opened successfully. + + +
Contents +
+ Input and output, whether to or from physical devices such as terminals and tape drives, + or whether to or from files supported on structured storage devices, are mapped into + logical data streams, whose properties are more uniform than their various inputs and + outputs. Two forms of mapping are supported, for text streams and for binary + streams.259) +
+ A text stream is an ordered sequence of characters composed into lines, each line + consisting of zero or more characters plus a terminating new-line character. Whether the + last line requires a terminating new-line character is implementation-defined. Characters + may have to be added, altered, or deleted on input and output to conform to differing + conventions for representing text in the host environment. Thus, there need not be a one- + to-one correspondence between the characters in a stream and those in the external + representation. Data read in from a text stream will necessarily compare equal to the data + that were earlier written out to that stream only if: the data consist only of printing + characters and the control characters horizontal tab and new-line; no new-line character is + immediately preceded by space characters; and the last character is a new-line character. + Whether space characters that are written out immediately before a new-line character + appear when read in is implementation-defined. +
+ A binary stream is an ordered sequence of characters that can transparently record + internal data. Data read in from a binary stream shall compare equal to the data that were + earlier written out to that stream, under the same implementation. Such a stream may, + however, have an implementation-defined number of null characters appended to the end + of the stream. +
+ Each stream has an orientation. After a stream is associated with an external file, but + before any operations are performed on it, the stream is without orientation. Once a wide + character input/output function has been applied to a stream without orientation, the + + + + stream becomes a wide-oriented stream. Similarly, once a byte input/output function has + been applied to a stream without orientation, the stream becomes a byte-oriented stream. + Only a call to the freopen function or the fwide function can otherwise alter the + orientation of a stream. (A successful call to freopen removes any orientation.)260) +
+ Byte input/output functions shall not be applied to a wide-oriented stream and wide + character input/output functions shall not be applied to a byte-oriented stream. The + remaining stream operations do not affect, and are not affected by, a stream's orientation, + except for the following additional restrictions: +
+ Each wide-oriented stream has an associated mbstate_t object that stores the current + parse state of the stream. A successful call to fgetpos stores a representation of the + value of this mbstate_t object as part of the value of the fpos_t object. A later + successful call to fsetpos using the same stored fpos_t value restores the value of + the associated mbstate_t object as well as the position within the controlled stream. +
Environmental limits +
+ An implementation shall support text files with lines containing at least 254 characters, + including the terminating new-line character. The value of the macro BUFSIZ shall be at + least 256. +

259) An implementation need not distinguish between text streams and binary streams. In such an + implementation, there need be no new-line characters in a text stream nor any limit to the length of a + line. + +
260) The three predefined streams stdin, stdout, and stderr are unoriented at program startup. + + +
Contents +
+ A stream is associated with an external file (which may be a physical device) by opening + a file, which may involve creating a new file. Creating an existing file causes its former + contents to be discarded, if necessary. If a file can support positioning requests (such as a + disk file, as opposed to a terminal), then a file position indicator associated with the + stream is positioned at the start (character number zero) of the file, unless the file is + opened with append mode in which case it is implementation-defined whether the file + position indicator is initially positioned at the beginning or the end of the file. The file + position indicator is maintained by subsequent reads, writes, and positioning requests, to + facilitate an orderly progression through the file. +
+ Binary files are not truncated, except as defined in 7.21.5.3. Whether a write on a text + stream causes the associated file to be truncated beyond that point is implementation- + defined. +
+ When a stream is unbuffered, characters are intended to appear from the source or at the + destination as soon as possible. Otherwise characters may be accumulated and + transmitted to or from the host environment as a block. When a stream is fully buffered, + characters are intended to be transmitted to or from the host environment as a block when + a buffer is filled. When a stream is line buffered, characters are intended to be + transmitted to or from the host environment as a block when a new-line character is + encountered. Furthermore, characters are intended to be transmitted as a block to the host + environment when a buffer is filled, when input is requested on an unbuffered stream, or + when input is requested on a line buffered stream that requires the transmission of + characters from the host environment. Support for these characteristics is + implementation-defined, and may be affected via the setbuf and setvbuf functions. +
+ A file may be disassociated from a controlling stream by closing the file. Output streams + are flushed (any unwritten buffer contents are transmitted to the host environment) before + the stream is disassociated from the file. The value of a pointer to a FILE object is + indeterminate after the associated file is closed (including the standard text streams). + Whether a file of zero length (on which no characters have been written by an output + stream) actually exists is implementation-defined. +
+ The file may be subsequently reopened, by the same or another program execution, and + its contents reclaimed or modified (if it can be repositioned at its start). If the main + function returns to its original caller, or if the exit function is called, all open files are + closed (hence all output streams are flushed) before program termination. Other paths to + program termination, such as calling the abort function, need not close all files + properly. +
+ The address of the FILE object used to control a stream may be significant; a copy of a + FILE object need not serve in place of the original. + +
+ At program startup, three text streams are predefined and need not be opened explicitly +
+ Functions that open additional (nontemporary) files require a file name, which is a string. + The rules for composing valid file names are implementation-defined. Whether the same + file can be simultaneously open multiple times is also implementation-defined. +
+ Although both text and binary wide-oriented streams are conceptually sequences of wide + characters, the external file associated with a wide-oriented stream is a sequence of + multibyte characters, generalized as follows: +
+ Moreover, the encodings used for multibyte characters may differ among files. Both the + nature and choice of such encodings are implementation-defined. +
+ The wide character input functions read multibyte characters from the stream and convert + them to wide characters as if they were read by successive calls to the fgetwc function. + Each conversion occurs as if by a call to the mbrtowc function, with the conversion state + described by the stream's own mbstate_t object. The byte input functions read + characters from the stream as if by successive calls to the fgetc function. +
+ The wide character output functions convert wide characters to multibyte characters and + write them to the stream as if they were written by successive calls to the fputwc + function. Each conversion occurs as if by a call to the wcrtomb function, with the + conversion state described by the stream's own mbstate_t object. The byte output + functions write characters to the stream as if by successive calls to the fputc function. +
+ In some cases, some of the byte input/output functions also perform conversions between + multibyte characters and wide characters. These conversions also occur as if by calls to + the mbrtowc and wcrtomb functions. +
+ An encoding error occurs if the character sequence presented to the underlying + mbrtowc function does not form a valid (generalized) multibyte character, or if the code + value passed to the underlying wcrtomb does not correspond to a valid (generalized) + + + + multibyte character. The wide character input/output functions and the byte input/output + functions store the value of the macro EILSEQ in errno if and only if an encoding error + occurs. +

261) Setting the file position indicator to end-of-file, as with fseek(file, 0, SEEK_END), has + undefined behavior for a binary stream (because of possible trailing null characters) or for any stream + with state-dependent encoding that does not assuredly end in the initial shift state. + + +

Description +
+ The tmpfile function creates a temporary binary file that is different from any other + existing file and that will automatically be removed when it is closed or at program + termination.

Recommended practice +

+ The tmpnam function generates a different string each time it is called. +
+ Calls to the tmpnam function with a null pointer argument may introduce data races with + each other. The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the tmpnam + function. +
Returns +
+ If no suitable string can be generated, the tmpnam function returns a null pointer. + Otherwise, if the argument is a null pointer, the tmpnam function leaves its result in an + internal static object and returns a pointer to that object (subsequent calls to the tmpnam + function may modify the same object). If the argument is not a null pointer, it is assumed + to point to an array of at least L_tmpnam chars; the tmpnam function writes its result + in that array and returns the argument as its value. +

Description +
+ A successful call to the fclose function causes the stream pointed to by stream to be + flushed and the associated file to be closed. Any unwritten buffered data for the stream + are delivered to the host environment to be written to the file; any unread buffered data + are discarded. Whether or not the call succeeds, the stream is disassociated from the file + and any buffer set by the setbuf or setvbuf function is disassociated from the stream + (and deallocated if it was automatically allocated). +

+ Opening a file with read mode ('r' as the first character in the mode argument) fails if + the file does not exist or cannot be read. +
+ Opening a file with exclusive mode ('x' as the last character in the mode argument) + fails if the file already exists or cannot be created. Otherwise, the file is created with + exclusive (also known as non-shared) access to the extent that the underlying system + supports exclusive access. +
+ Opening a file with append mode ('a' as the first character in the mode argument) + causes all subsequent writes to the file to be forced to the then current end-of-file, + regardless of intervening calls to the fseek function. In some implementations, opening + a binary file with append mode ('b' as the second or third character in the above list of + mode argument values) may initially position the file position indicator for the stream + beyond the last data written, because of null character padding. +
+ When a file is opened with update mode ('+' as the second or third character in the + above list of mode argument values), both input and output may be performed on the + associated stream. However, output shall not be directly followed by input without an + intervening call to the fflush function or to a file positioning function (fseek, + fsetpos, or rewind), and input shall not be directly followed by output without an + intervening call to a file positioning function, unless the input operation encounters end- + of-file. Opening (or creating) a text file with update mode may instead open (or create) a + binary stream in some implementations. +
+ When opened, a stream is fully buffered if and only if it can be determined not to refer to + an interactive device. The error and end-of-file indicators for the stream are cleared. +

Description +
+ The setvbuf function may be used only after the stream pointed to by stream has + been associated with an open file and before any other operation (other than an + unsuccessful call to setvbuf) is performed on the stream. The argument mode + determines how stream will be buffered, as follows: _IOFBF causes input/output to be + fully buffered; _IOLBF causes input/output to be line buffered; _IONBF causes + input/output to be unbuffered. If buf is not a null pointer, the array it points to may be + used instead of a buffer allocated by the setvbuf function266) and the argument size + specifies the size of the array; otherwise, size may determine the size of a buffer + allocated by the setvbuf function.

Description +
+ The fprintf function writes output to the stream pointed to by stream, under control + of the string pointed to by format that specifies how subsequent arguments are + converted for output. If there are insufficient arguments for the format, the behavior is + undefined. If the format is exhausted while arguments remain, the excess arguments are + evaluated (as always) but are otherwise ignored. The fprintf function returns when + the end of the format string is encountered. +
+ The format shall be a multibyte character sequence, beginning and ending in its initial + shift state. The format is composed of zero or more directives: ordinary multibyte + characters (not %), which are copied unchanged to the output stream; and conversion + specifications, each of which results in fetching zero or more subsequent arguments, + converting them, if applicable, according to the corresponding conversion specifier, and + then writing the result to the output stream. +
+ Each conversion specification is introduced by the character %. After the %, the following + appear in sequence: +
+ As noted above, a field width, or precision, or both, may be indicated by an asterisk. In + this case, an int argument supplies the field width or precision. The arguments + specifying field width, or precision, or both, shall appear (in that order) before the + argument (if any) to be converted. A negative field width argument is taken as a - flag + followed by a positive field width. A negative precision argument is taken as if the + precision were omitted. +
+ The flag characters and their meanings are: + - The result of the conversion is left-justified within the field. (It is right-justified if +
+ this flag is not specified.) ++ + The result of a signed conversion always begins with a plus or minus sign. (It +
+ begins with a sign only when a negative value is converted if this flag is not + specified.)269) ++ space If the first character of a signed conversion is not a sign, or if a signed conversion +
+ results in no characters, a space is prefixed to the result. If the space and + flags + both appear, the space flag is ignored. ++ # The result is converted to an ''alternative form''. For o conversion, it increases +
+ the precision, if and only if necessary, to force the first digit of the result to be a + zero (if the value and precision are both 0, a single 0 is printed). For x (or X) + conversion, a nonzero result has 0x (or 0X) prefixed to it. For a, A, e, E, f, F, g, + and G conversions, the result of converting a floating-point number always + contains a decimal-point character, even if no digits follow it. (Normally, a + decimal-point character appears in the result of these conversions only if a digit + follows it.) For g and G conversions, trailing zeros are not removed from the + result. For other conversions, the behavior is undefined. ++ 0 For d, i, o, u, x, X, a, A, e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, leading zeros +
+ (following any indication of sign or base) are used to pad to the field width rather + than performing space padding, except when converting an infinity or NaN. If the + 0 and - flags both appear, the 0 flag is ignored. For d, i, o, u, x, and X ++ + + +
+ conversions, if a precision is specified, the 0 flag is ignored. For other + conversions, the behavior is undefined. ++
+ The length modifiers and their meanings are: + hh Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a +
+ signed char or unsigned char argument (the argument will have + been promoted according to the integer promotions, but its value shall be + converted to signed char or unsigned char before printing); or that + a following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a signed char + argument. ++ h Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a +
+ short int or unsigned short int argument (the argument will + have been promoted according to the integer promotions, but its value shall + be converted to short int or unsigned short int before printing); + or that a following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a short + int argument. ++ l (ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a +
+ long int or unsigned long int argument; that a following n + conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a long int argument; that a + following c conversion specifier applies to a wint_t argument; that a + following s conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a wchar_t + argument; or has no effect on a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion + specifier. ++ ll (ell-ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a +
+ long long int or unsigned long long int argument; or that a + following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a long long int + argument. ++ j Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to +
+ an intmax_t or uintmax_t argument; or that a following n conversion + specifier applies to a pointer to an intmax_t argument. ++ z Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a +
+ size_t or the corresponding signed integer type argument; or that a + following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a signed integer type + corresponding to size_t argument. ++ t Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a + +
+ ptrdiff_t or the corresponding unsigned integer type argument; or that a + following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a ptrdiff_t + argument. ++ L Specifies that a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion specifier +
+ applies to a long double argument. ++ If a length modifier appears with any conversion specifier other than as specified above, + the behavior is undefined. +
+ The conversion specifiers and their meanings are: + d,i The int argument is converted to signed decimal in the style [-]dddd. The +
+ precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear; if the value + being converted can be represented in fewer digits, it is expanded with + leading zeros. The default precision is 1. The result of converting a zero + value with a precision of zero is no characters. ++ o,u,x,X The unsigned int argument is converted to unsigned octal (o), unsigned +
+ decimal (u), or unsigned hexadecimal notation (x or X) in the style dddd; the + letters abcdef are used for x conversion and the letters ABCDEF for X + conversion. The precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear; + if the value being converted can be represented in fewer digits, it is expanded + with leading zeros. The default precision is 1. The result of converting a + zero value with a precision of zero is no characters. ++ f,F A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted to +
+ decimal notation in the style [-]ddd.ddd, where the number of digits after + the decimal-point character is equal to the precision specification. If the + precision is missing, it is taken as 6; if the precision is zero and the # flag is + not specified, no decimal-point character appears. If a decimal-point + character appears, at least one digit appears before it. The value is rounded to + the appropriate number of digits. + A double argument representing an infinity is converted in one of the styles + [-]inf or [-]infinity -- which style is implementation-defined. A + double argument representing a NaN is converted in one of the styles + [-]nan or [-]nan(n-char-sequence) -- which style, and the meaning of + any n-char-sequence, is implementation-defined. The F conversion specifier + produces INF, INFINITY, or NAN instead of inf, infinity, or nan, + respectively.270) ++ e,E A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in the +
+ style [-]d.ddd e(+-)dd, where there is one digit (which is nonzero if the + argument is nonzero) before the decimal-point character and the number of + digits after it is equal to the precision; if the precision is missing, it is taken as ++ + + +
+ 6; if the precision is zero and the # flag is not specified, no decimal-point + character appears. The value is rounded to the appropriate number of digits. + The E conversion specifier produces a number with E instead of e + introducing the exponent. The exponent always contains at least two digits, + and only as many more digits as necessary to represent the exponent. If the + value is zero, the exponent is zero. + A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style + of an f or F conversion specifier. ++ g,G A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in +
+ style f or e (or in style F or E in the case of a G conversion specifier), + depending on the value converted and the precision. Let P equal the + precision if nonzero, 6 if the precision is omitted, or 1 if the precision is zero. + Then, if a conversion with style E would have an exponent of X: + -- if P > X >= -4, the conversion is with style f (or F) and precision + P - (X + 1). + -- otherwise, the conversion is with style e (or E) and precision P - 1. + Finally, unless the # flag is used, any trailing zeros are removed from the + fractional portion of the result and the decimal-point character is removed if + there is no fractional portion remaining. + A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style + of an f or F conversion specifier. ++ a,A A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in the +
+ style [-]0xh.hhhh p(+-)d, where there is one hexadecimal digit (which is + nonzero if the argument is a normalized floating-point number and is + otherwise unspecified) before the decimal-point character271) and the number + of hexadecimal digits after it is equal to the precision; if the precision is + missing and FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, then the precision is sufficient for + an exact representation of the value; if the precision is missing and + FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, then the precision is sufficient to ++ + + + + +
+ distinguish272) values of type double, except that trailing zeros may be + omitted; if the precision is zero and the # flag is not specified, no decimal- + point character appears. The letters abcdef are used for a conversion and + the letters ABCDEF for A conversion. The A conversion specifier produces a + number with X and P instead of x and p. The exponent always contains at + least one digit, and only as many more digits as necessary to represent the + decimal exponent of 2. If the value is zero, the exponent is zero. + A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style + of an f or F conversion specifier. ++ c If no l length modifier is present, the int argument is converted to an +
+ unsigned char, and the resulting character is written. + If an l length modifier is present, the wint_t argument is converted as if by + an ls conversion specification with no precision and an argument that points + to the initial element of a two-element array of wchar_t, the first element + containing the wint_t argument to the lc conversion specification and the + second a null wide character. ++ s If no l length modifier is present, the argument shall be a pointer to the initial +

If the + precision is specified, no more than that many bytes are written. If the + precision is not specified or is greater than the size of the array, the array shall + contain a null character. + If an l length modifier is present, the argument shall be a pointer to the initial + element of an array of wchar_t type. Wide characters from the array are + converted to multibyte characters (each as if by a call to the wcrtomb + function, with the conversion state described by an mbstate_t object + initialized to zero before the first wide character is converted) up to and + including a terminating null wide character. The resulting multibyte + characters are written up to (but not including) the terminating null character + (byte). If no precision is specified, the array shall contain a null wide + character. If a precision is specified, no more than that many bytes are + written (including shift sequences, if any), and the array shall contain a null + wide character if, to equal the multibyte character sequence length given by ++ + +
+ the precision, the function would need to access a wide character one past the + end of the array. In no case is a partial multibyte character written.274) ++ p The argument shall be a pointer to void. The value of the pointer is +
+ converted to a sequence of printing characters, in an implementation-defined + manner. ++ n The argument shall be a pointer to signed integer into which is written the +
+ number of characters written to the output stream so far by this call to + fprintf. No argument is converted, but one is consumed. If the conversion + specification includes any flags, a field width, or a precision, the behavior is + undefined. ++ % A % character is written. No argument is converted. The complete +
+ conversion specification shall be %%. ++
+ If a conversion specification is invalid, the behavior is undefined.275) If any argument is + not the correct type for the corresponding conversion specification, the behavior is + undefined. +
+ In no case does a nonexistent or small field width cause truncation of a field; if the result + of a conversion is wider than the field width, the field is expanded to contain the + conversion result. +
+ For a and A conversions, if FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the value is correctly rounded + to a hexadecimal floating number with the given precision. +
Recommended practice +
+ For a and A conversions, if FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2 and the result is not exactly + representable in the given precision, the result should be one of the two adjacent numbers + in hexadecimal floating style with the given precision, with the extra stipulation that the + error should have a correct sign for the current rounding direction. +
+ For e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, if the number of significant decimal digits is at most + DECIMAL_DIG, then the result should be correctly rounded.276) If the number of + significant decimal digits is more than DECIMAL_DIG but the source value is exactly + representable with DECIMAL_DIG digits, then the result should be an exact + representation with trailing zeros. Otherwise, the source value is bounded by two + adjacent decimal strings L < U, both having DECIMAL_DIG significant digits; the value + + + + of the resultant decimal string D should satisfy L <= D <= U, with the extra stipulation that + the error should have a correct sign for the current rounding direction. +
Returns +
+ The fprintf function returns the number of characters transmitted, or a negative value + if an output or encoding error occurred. +
Environmental limits +
+ The number of characters that can be produced by any single conversion shall be at least + 4095. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 To print a date and time in the form ''Sunday, July 3, 10:02'' followed by pi to five decimal + places: +

+ EXAMPLE 2 In this example, multibyte characters do not have a state-dependent encoding, and the + members of the extended character set that consist of more than one byte each consist of exactly two bytes, + the first of which is denoted here by a and the second by an uppercase letter. +

Synopsis +
+
+ #include <stdio.h> + int fscanf(FILE * restrict stream, + const char * restrict format, ...); ++
Description +
+ The fscanf function reads input from the stream pointed to by stream, under control + of the string pointed to by format that specifies the admissible input sequences and how + they are to be converted for assignment, using subsequent arguments as pointers to the + objects to receive the converted input. If there are insufficient arguments for the format, + the behavior is undefined. If the format is exhausted while arguments remain, the excess + arguments are evaluated (as always) but are otherwise ignored. +
+ The format shall be a multibyte character sequence, beginning and ending in its initial + shift state. The format is composed of zero or more directives: one or more white-space + characters, an ordinary multibyte character (neither % nor a white-space character), or a + conversion specification. Each conversion specification is introduced by the character %. + After the %, the following appear in sequence: +
+ The fscanf function executes each directive of the format in turn. When all directives + have been executed, or if a directive fails (as detailed below), the function returns. + Failures are described as input failures (due to the occurrence of an encoding error or the + unavailability of input characters), or matching failures (due to inappropriate input). +
+ A directive composed of white-space character(s) is executed by reading input up to the + first non-white-space character (which remains unread), or until no more characters can + be read. +
+ A directive that is an ordinary multibyte character is executed by reading the next + characters of the stream. If any of those characters differ from the ones composing the + directive, the directive fails and the differing and subsequent characters remain unread. + Similarly, if end-of-file, an encoding error, or a read error prevents a character from being + read, the directive fails. +
+ A directive that is a conversion specification defines a set of matching input sequences, as + described below for each specifier. A conversion specification is executed in the + + following steps: +
+ Input white-space characters (as specified by the isspace function) are skipped, unless + the specification includes a [, c, or n specifier.277) +
+ An input item is read from the stream, unless the specification includes an n specifier. An + input item is defined as the longest sequence of input characters which does not exceed + any specified field width and which is, or is a prefix of, a matching input sequence.278) + The first character, if any, after the input item remains unread. If the length of the input + item is zero, the execution of the directive fails; this condition is a matching failure unless + end-of-file, an encoding error, or a read error prevented input from the stream, in which + case it is an input failure. +
+ Except in the case of a % specifier, the input item (or, in the case of a %n directive, the + count of input characters) is converted to a type appropriate to the conversion specifier. If + the input item is not a matching sequence, the execution of the directive fails: this + condition is a matching failure. Unless assignment suppression was indicated by a *, the + result of the conversion is placed in the object pointed to by the first argument following + the format argument that has not already received a conversion result. If this object + does not have an appropriate type, or if the result of the conversion cannot be represented + in the object, the behavior is undefined. +
+ The length modifiers and their meanings are: + hh Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to signed char or unsigned char. ++ h Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to short int or unsigned short + int. ++ l (ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to long int or unsigned long + int; that a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion specifier applies to + an argument with type pointer to double; or that a following c, s, or [ + conversion specifier applies to an argument with type pointer to wchar_t. ++ ll (ell-ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to long long int or unsigned + long long int. ++ + + + + j Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to intmax_t or uintmax_t. ++ z Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to size_t or the corresponding signed + integer type. ++ t Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to ptrdiff_t or the corresponding + unsigned integer type. ++ L Specifies that a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion specifier +
+ applies to an argument with type pointer to long double. ++ If a length modifier appears with any conversion specifier other than as specified above, + the behavior is undefined. +
+ The conversion specifiers and their meanings are: + d Matches an optionally signed decimal integer, whose format is the same as +
+ expected for the subject sequence of the strtol function with the value 10 + for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to + signed integer. ++ i Matches an optionally signed integer, whose format is the same as expected +
+ for the subject sequence of the strtol function with the value 0 for the + base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to signed + integer. ++ o Matches an optionally signed octal integer, whose format is the same as +
+ expected for the subject sequence of the strtoul function with the value 8 + for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to + unsigned integer. ++ u Matches an optionally signed decimal integer, whose format is the same as +
+ expected for the subject sequence of the strtoul function with the value 10 + for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to + unsigned integer. ++ x Matches an optionally signed hexadecimal integer, whose format is the same +
+ as expected for the subject sequence of the strtoul function with the value + 16 for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to + unsigned integer. ++ a,e,f,g Matches an optionally signed floating-point number, infinity, or NaN, whose + +
+ format is the same as expected for the subject sequence of the strtod + function. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to floating. ++ c Matches a sequence of characters of exactly the number specified by the field +
+ width (1 if no field width is present in the directive).279) + If no l length modifier is present, the corresponding argument shall be a + pointer to the initial element of a character array large enough to accept the + sequence. No null character is added. + If an l length modifier is present, the input shall be a sequence of multibyte + characters that begins in the initial shift state. Each multibyte character in the + sequence is converted to a wide character as if by a call to the mbrtowc + function, with the conversion state described by an mbstate_t object + initialized to zero before the first multibyte character is converted. The + corresponding argument shall be a pointer to the initial element of an array of + wchar_t large enough to accept the resulting sequence of wide characters. + No null wide character is added. ++ s Matches a sequence of non-white-space characters.279) +
+ If no l length modifier is present, the corresponding argument shall be a + pointer to the initial element of a character array large enough to accept the + sequence and a terminating null character, which will be added automatically. + If an l length modifier is present, the input shall be a sequence of multibyte + characters that begins in the initial shift state. Each multibyte character is + converted to a wide character as if by a call to the mbrtowc function, with + the conversion state described by an mbstate_t object initialized to zero + before the first multibyte character is converted. The corresponding argument + shall be a pointer to the initial element of an array of wchar_t large enough + to accept the sequence and the terminating null wide character, which will be + added automatically. ++ [ Matches a nonempty sequence of characters from a set of expected characters +
+ (the scanset).279) + If no l length modifier is present, the corresponding argument shall be a + pointer to the initial element of a character array large enough to accept the + sequence and a terminating null character, which will be added automatically. + If an l length modifier is present, the input shall be a sequence of multibyte + characters that begins in the initial shift state. Each multibyte character is + converted to a wide character as if by a call to the mbrtowc function, with + the conversion state described by an mbstate_t object initialized to zero ++ + +
+ before the first multibyte character is converted. The corresponding argument + shall be a pointer to the initial element of an array of wchar_t large enough + to accept the sequence and the terminating null wide character, which will be + added automatically. + The conversion specifier includes all subsequent characters in the format + string, up to and including the matching right bracket (]). The characters + between the brackets (the scanlist) compose the scanset, unless the character + after the left bracket is a circumflex (^), in which case the scanset contains all + characters that do not appear in the scanlist between the circumflex and the + right bracket. If the conversion specifier begins with [] or [^], the right + bracket character is in the scanlist and the next following right bracket + character is the matching right bracket that ends the specification; otherwise + the first following right bracket character is the one that ends the + specification. If a - character is in the scanlist and is not the first, nor the + second where the first character is a ^, nor the last character, the behavior is + implementation-defined. ++ p Matches an implementation-defined set of sequences, which should be the +
+ same as the set of sequences that may be produced by the %p conversion of + the fprintf function. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to a + pointer to void. The input item is converted to a pointer value in an + implementation-defined manner. If the input item is a value converted earlier + during the same program execution, the pointer that results shall compare + equal to that value; otherwise the behavior of the %p conversion is undefined. ++ n No input is consumed. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to +
+ signed integer into which is to be written the number of characters read from + the input stream so far by this call to the fscanf function. Execution of a + %n directive does not increment the assignment count returned at the + completion of execution of the fscanf function. No argument is converted, + but one is consumed. If the conversion specification includes an assignment- + suppressing character or a field width, the behavior is undefined. ++ % Matches a single % character; no conversion or assignment occurs. The +
+ complete conversion specification shall be %%. ++
+ If a conversion specification is invalid, the behavior is undefined.280) +
+ The conversion specifiers A, E, F, G, and X are also valid and behave the same as, + respectively, a, e, f, g, and x. + + + + +
+ Trailing white space (including new-line characters) is left unread unless matched by a + directive. The success of literal matches and suppressed assignments is not directly + determinable other than via the %n directive. +
Returns +
+ The fscanf function returns the value of the macro EOF if an input failure occurs + before the first conversion (if any) has completed. Otherwise, the function returns the + number of input items assigned, which can be fewer than provided for, or even zero, in + the event of an early matching failure. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 The call: +
+ #include <stdio.h> + /* ... */ + int n, i; float x; char name[50]; + n = fscanf(stdin, "%d%f%s", &i, &x, name); ++ with the input line: +
+ 25 54.32E-1 thompson ++ will assign to n the value 3, to i the value 25, to x the value 5.432, and to name the sequence + thompson\0. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 The call: +
+ #include <stdio.h> + /* ... */ + int i; float x; char name[50]; + fscanf(stdin, "%2d%f%*d %[0123456789]", &i, &x, name); ++ with input: +
+ 56789 0123 56a72 ++ will assign to i the value 56 and to x the value 789.0, will skip 0123, and will assign to name the + sequence 56\0. The next character read from the input stream will be a. + +
+ EXAMPLE 3 To accept repeatedly from stdin a quantity, a unit of measure, and an item name: +
+ #include <stdio.h> + /* ... */ + int count; float quant; char units[21], item[21]; + do { + count = fscanf(stdin, "%f%20s of %20s", &quant, units, item); + fscanf(stdin,"%*[^\n]"); + } while (!feof(stdin) && !ferror(stdin)); ++
+ If the stdin stream contains the following lines: + +
+ 2 quarts of oil + -12.8degrees Celsius + lots of luck + 10.0LBS of + dirt + 100ergs of energy ++ the execution of the above example will be analogous to the following assignments: +
+ quant = 2; strcpy(units, "quarts"); strcpy(item, "oil"); + count = 3; + quant = -12.8; strcpy(units, "degrees"); + count = 2; // "C" fails to match "o" + count = 0; // "l" fails to match "%f" + quant = 10.0; strcpy(units, "LBS"); strcpy(item, "dirt"); + count = 3; + count = 0; // "100e" fails to match "%f" + count = EOF; ++ +
+ EXAMPLE 4 In: +
+ #include <stdio.h> + /* ... */ + int d1, d2, n1, n2, i; + i = sscanf("123", "%d%n%n%d", &d1, &n1, &n2, &d2); ++ the value 123 is assigned to d1 and the value 3 to n1. Because %n can never get an input failure the value + of 3 is also assigned to n2. The value of d2 is not affected. The value 1 is assigned to i. + +
+ EXAMPLE 5 In these examples, multibyte characters do have a state-dependent encoding, and the + members of the extended character set that consist of more than one byte each consist of exactly two bytes, + the first of which is denoted here by a and the second by an uppercase letter, but are only recognized as + such when in the alternate shift state. The shift sequences are denoted by (uparrow) and (downarrow), in which the first causes + entry into the alternate shift state. +
+ After the call: +
+ #include <stdio.h> + /* ... */ + char str[50]; + fscanf(stdin, "a%s", str); ++ with the input line: +
+ a(uparrow) X Y(downarrow) bc ++ str will contain (uparrow) X Y(downarrow)\0 assuming that none of the bytes of the shift sequences (or of the multibyte + characters, in the more general case) appears to be a single-byte white-space character. +
+ In contrast, after the call: +
+ #include <stdio.h> + #include <stddef.h> + /* ... */ + wchar_t wstr[50]; + fscanf(stdin, "a%ls", wstr); ++ with the same input line, wstr will contain the two wide characters that correspond to X and Y and a + terminating null wide character. +
+ However, the call: + +
+ #include <stdio.h> + #include <stddef.h> + /* ... */ + wchar_t wstr[50]; + fscanf(stdin, "a(uparrow) X(downarrow)%ls", wstr); ++ with the same input line will return zero due to a matching failure against the (downarrow) sequence in the format + string. +
+ Assuming that the first byte of the multibyte character X is the same as the first byte of the multibyte + character Y, after the call: +
+ #include <stdio.h> + #include <stddef.h> + /* ... */ + wchar_t wstr[50]; + fscanf(stdin, "a(uparrow) Y(downarrow)%ls", wstr); ++ with the same input line, zero will again be returned, but stdin will be left with a partially consumed + multibyte character. + +

Footnotes +
277) These white-space characters are not counted against a specified field width. + +
278) fscanf pushes back at most one input character onto the input stream. Therefore, some sequences + that are acceptable to strtod, strtol, etc., are unacceptable to fscanf. + +
279) No special provisions are made for multibyte characters in the matching rules used by the c, s, and [ + conversion specifiers -- the extent of the input field is determined on a byte-by-byte basis. The + resulting field is nevertheless a sequence of multibyte characters that begins in the initial shift state. + +

+ One character of pushback is guaranteed. If the ungetc function is called too many + times on the same stream without an intervening read or file positioning operation on that + stream, the operation may fail. +
+ If the value of c equals that of the macro EOF, the operation fails and the input stream is + unchanged. +
+ A successful call to the ungetc function clears the end-of-file indicator for the stream. + The value of the file position indicator for the stream after reading or discarding all + pushed-back characters shall be the same as it was before the characters were pushed + back. For a text stream, the value of its file position indicator after a successful call to the + ungetc function is unspecified until all pushed-back characters are read or discarded. + + For a binary stream, its file position indicator is decremented by each successful call to + the ungetc function; if its value was zero before a call, it is indeterminate after the + call.283) +

+ For a binary stream, the new position, measured in characters from the beginning of the + file, is obtained by adding offset to the position specified by whence.

Description +
+ The strtod, strtof, and strtold functions convert the initial portion of the string + pointed to by nptr to double, float, and long double representation, + respectively. First, they decompose the input string into three parts: an initial, possibly + empty, sequence of white-space characters (as specified by the isspace function), a + subject sequence resembling a floating-point constant or representing an infinity or NaN; + and a final string of one or more unrecognized characters, including the terminating null + character of the input string. Then, they attempt to convert the subject sequence to a + floating-point number, and return the result. +
+ The expected form of the subject sequence is an optional plus or minus sign, then one of + the following: +
+ n-char-sequence: + digit + nondigit + n-char-sequence digit + n-char-sequence nondigit ++
+ If the subject sequence has the expected form for a floating-point number, the sequence of + characters starting with the first digit or the decimal-point character (whichever occurs + first) is interpreted as a floating constant according to the rules of 6.4.4.2, except that the + + decimal-point character is used in place of a period, and that if neither an exponent part + nor a decimal-point character appears in a decimal floating point number, or if a binary + exponent part does not appear in a hexadecimal floating point number, an exponent part + of the appropriate type with value zero is assumed to follow the last digit in the string. If + the subject sequence begins with a minus sign, the sequence is interpreted as negated.285) + A character sequence INF or INFINITY is interpreted as an infinity, if representable in + the return type, else like a floating constant that is too large for the range of the return + type. A character sequence NAN or NAN(n-char-sequenceopt), is interpreted as a quiet + NaN, if supported in the return type, else like a subject sequence part that does not have + the expected form; the meaning of the n-char sequences is implementation-defined.286) A + pointer to the final string is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided that + endptr is not a null pointer. +
+ If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form and FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the + value resulting from the conversion is correctly rounded. +
+ In other than the "C" locale, additional locale-specific subject sequence forms may be + accepted. +
+ If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form, no conversion is + performed; the value of nptr is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided + that endptr is not a null pointer. +
Recommended practice +
+ If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form, FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, and + the result is not exactly representable, the result should be one of the two numbers in the + appropriate internal format that are adjacent to the hexadecimal floating source value, + with the extra stipulation that the error should have a correct sign for the current rounding + direction. +
+ If the subject sequence has the decimal form and at most DECIMAL_DIG (defined in + <float.h>) significant digits, the result should be correctly rounded. If the subject + sequence D has the decimal form and more than DECIMAL_DIG significant digits, + consider the two bounding, adjacent decimal strings L and U, both having + DECIMAL_DIG significant digits, such that the values of L, D, and U satisfy L <= D <= U. + The result should be one of the (equal or adjacent) values that would be obtained by + correctly rounding L and U according to the current rounding direction, with the extra + + + stipulation that the error with respect to D should have a correct sign for the current + rounding direction.287) +
Returns +
+ The functions return the converted value, if any. If no conversion could be performed, + zero is returned. If the correct value overflows and default rounding is in effect (7.12.1), + plus or minus HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, or HUGE_VALL is returned (according to the + return type and sign of the value), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in + errno. If the result underflows (7.12.1), the functions return a value whose magnitude is + no greater than the smallest normalized positive number in the return type; whether + errno acquires the value ERANGE is implementation-defined. + +
Footnotes +
285) It is unspecified whether a minus-signed sequence is converted to a negative number directly or by + negating the value resulting from converting the corresponding unsigned sequence (see F.5); the two + methods may yield different results if rounding is toward positive or negative infinity. In either case, + the functions honor the sign of zero if floating-point arithmetic supports signed zeros. + +
286) An implementation may use the n-char sequence to determine extra information to be represented in + the NaN's significand. + +
287) DECIMAL_DIG, defined in <float.h>, should be sufficiently large that L and U will usually round + to the same internal floating value, but if not will round to adjacent values. + + +

Description +
+ The strtol, strtoll, strtoul, and strtoull functions convert the initial + portion of the string pointed to by nptr to long int, long long int, unsigned + long int, and unsigned long long int representation, respectively. First, + they decompose the input string into three parts: an initial, possibly empty, sequence of + white-space characters (as specified by the isspace function), a subject sequence + + + + resembling an integer represented in some radix determined by the value of base, and a + final string of one or more unrecognized characters, including the terminating null + character of the input string. Then, they attempt to convert the subject sequence to an + integer, and return the result. +
+ If the value of base is zero, the expected form of the subject sequence is that of an + integer constant as described in 6.4.4.1, optionally preceded by a plus or minus sign, but + not including an integer suffix.

If the value of base is 16, the characters 0x or 0X may + optionally precede the sequence of letters and digits, following the sign if present. +
+ The subject sequence is defined as the longest initial subsequence of the input string, + starting with the first non-white-space character, that is of the expected form. The subject + sequence contains no characters if the input string is empty or consists entirely of white + space, or if the first non-white-space character is other than a sign or a permissible letter + or digit. +
+ If the subject sequence has the expected form and the value of base is zero, the sequence + of characters starting with the first digit is interpreted as an integer constant according to + the rules of 6.4.4.1.

+ In other than the "C" locale, additional locale-specific subject sequence forms may be + accepted. +
+ If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form, no conversion is + performed; the value of nptr is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided + that endptr is not a null pointer. +
Returns +

+ #include <stdlib.h> + void srand(unsigned int seed); ++
Description +
+ The srand function uses the argument as a seed for a new sequence of pseudo-random + numbers to be returned by subsequent calls to rand. If srand is then called with the + same seed value, the sequence of pseudo-random numbers shall be repeated. If rand is + called before any calls to srand have been made, the same sequence shall be generated + as when srand is first called with a seed value of 1. +
+ The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the srand function. +
Returns +
+ The srand function returns no value. + + + + + +
+ EXAMPLE The following functions define a portable implementation of rand and srand. +
+ static unsigned long int next = 1; + int rand(void) // RAND_MAX assumed to be 32767 + { + next = next * 1103515245 + 12345; + return (unsigned int)(next/65536) % 32768; + } + void srand(unsigned int seed) + { + next = seed; + } ++ + +

+ The order and contiguity of storage allocated by successive calls to the + aligned_alloc, calloc, malloc, and realloc functions is unspecified. The + pointer returned if the allocation succeeds is suitably aligned so that it may be assigned to + a pointer to any type of object with a fundamental alignment requirement and then used + to access such an object or an array of such objects in the space allocated (until the space + is explicitly deallocated). The lifetime of an allocated object extends from the allocation + until the deallocation. Each such allocation shall yield a pointer to an object disjoint from + any other object. The pointer returned points to the start (lowest byte address) of the + allocated space. If the space cannot be allocated, a null pointer is returned. If the size of + the space requested is zero, the behavior is implementation-defined: either a null pointer + is returned, or the behavior is as if the size were some nonzero value, except that the + returned pointer shall not be used to access an object. + +

Description +
+ The realloc function deallocates the old object pointed to by ptr and returns a + pointer to a new object that has the size specified by size. The contents of the new + object shall be the same as that of the old object prior to deallocation, up to the lesser of + the new and old sizes. Any bytes in the new object beyond the size of the old object have + indeterminate values. +
+ If ptr is a null pointer, the realloc function behaves like the malloc function for the + specified size. Otherwise, if ptr does not match a pointer earlier returned by a memory + management function, or if the space has been deallocated by a call to the free or + realloc function, the behavior is undefined. If memory for the new object cannot be + allocated, the old object is not deallocated and its value is unchanged. +

Description +
+ The strxfrm function transforms the string pointed to by s2 and places the resulting + string into the array pointed to by s1. The transformation is such that if the strcmp + function is applied to two transformed strings, it returns a value greater than, equal to, or + + less than zero, corresponding to the result of the strcoll function applied to the same + two original strings. No more than n characters are placed into the resulting array + pointed to by s1, including the terminating null character. If n is zero, s1 is permitted to + be a null pointer. If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior is + undefined. +
Returns +
+ The strxfrm function returns the length of the transformed string (not including the + terminating null character). If the value returned is n or more, the contents of the array + pointed to by s1 are indeterminate. +

+ #include <string.h> + char *strtok(char * restrict s1, + const char * restrict s2); ++
Description +
+ A sequence of calls to the strtok function breaks the string pointed to by s1 into a + sequence of tokens, each of which is delimited by a character from the string pointed to + by s2. The first call in the sequence has a non-null first argument; subsequent calls in the + sequence have a null first argument. The separator string pointed to by s2 may be + different from call to call. + +
+ The first call in the sequence searches the string pointed to by s1 for the first character + that is not contained in the current separator string pointed to by s2. If no such character + is found, then there are no tokens in the string pointed to by s1 and the strtok function + returns a null pointer. If such a character is found, it is the start of the first token. +
+ The strtok function then searches from there for a character that is contained in the + current separator string. If no such character is found, the current token extends to the + end of the string pointed to by s1, and subsequent searches for a token will return a null + pointer. If such a character is found, it is overwritten by a null character, which + terminates the current token. The strtok function saves a pointer to the following + character, from which the next search for a token will start. +
+ Each subsequent call, with a null pointer as the value of the first argument, starts + searching from the saved pointer and behaves as described above. +
+ The strtok function is not required to avoid data races. The implementation shall + behave as if no library function calls the strtok function. +
Returns +
+ The strtok function returns a pointer to the first character of a token, or a null pointer + if there is no token. +
+ EXAMPLE +
+ #include <string.h> + static char str[] = "?a???b,,,#c"; + char *t; + t = strtok(str, "?"); // t points to the token "a" + t = strtok(NULL, ","); // t points to the token "??b" + t = strtok(NULL, "#,"); // t points to the token "c" + t = strtok(NULL, "?"); // t is a null pointer ++ + +

For each such function, except modf, there is a corresponding type-generic + macro.304) The parameters whose corresponding real type is double in the function + synopsis are generic parameters. Use of the macro invokes a function whose + corresponding real type and type domain are determined by the arguments for the generic + parameters.305) +

Contents +
+ The header <time.h> defines two macros, and declares several types and functions for + manipulating time. Many functions deal with a calendar time that represents the current + date (according to the Gregorian calendar) and time. Some functions deal with local + time, which is the calendar time expressed for some specific time zone, and with Daylight + Saving Time, which is a temporary change in the algorithm for determining local time. + The local time zone and Daylight Saving Time are implementation-defined. +
+ The macros defined are NULL (described in 7.19); and +
+ CLOCKS_PER_SEC ++ which expands to an expression with type clock_t (described below) that is the + number per second of the value returned by the clock function. +
+ The types declared are size_t (described in 7.19); +
+ clock_t ++ and +
+ time_t ++ which are arithmetic types capable of representing times; and +
+ struct tm ++ which holds the components of a calendar time, called the broken-down time. +
+ The range and precision of times representable in clock_t and time_t are + implementation-defined. The tm structure shall contain at least the following members, + in any order. The semantics of the members and their normal ranges are expressed in the + comments.307) +
+ int tm_sec; // seconds after the minute -- [0, 60] + int tm_min; // minutes after the hour -- [0, 59] + int tm_hour; // hours since midnight -- [0, 23] + int tm_mday; // day of the month -- [1, 31] + int tm_mon; // months since January -- [0, 11] + int tm_year; // years since 1900 + int tm_wday; // days since Sunday -- [0, 6] + int tm_yday; // days since January 1 -- [0, 365] + int tm_isdst; // Daylight Saving Time flag ++ + + + + The value of tm_isdst is positive if Daylight Saving Time is in effect, zero if Daylight + Saving Time is not in effect, and negative if the information is not available. + +

Synopsis +
+
+ #include <time.h> + clock_t clock(void); ++
Description +
+ The clock function determines the processor time used. +
Returns +
+ The clock function returns the implementation's best approximation to the processor + time used by the program since the beginning of an implementation-defined era related + only to the program invocation. To determine the time in seconds, the value returned by + the clock function should be divided by the value of the macro CLOCKS_PER_SEC. If + the processor time used is not available or its value cannot be represented, the function + returns the value (clock_t)(-1).308) + +
Footnotes +
308) In order to measure the time spent in a program, the clock function should be called at the start of + the program and its return value subtracted from the value returned by subsequent calls. + + +

Description +
+ The difftime function computes the difference between two calendar times: time1 - + time0. +
Returns +
+ The difftime function returns the difference expressed in seconds as a double. + + + + + + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <time.h> + time_t mktime(struct tm *timeptr); ++
Description +
+ The mktime function converts the broken-down time, expressed as local time, in the + structure pointed to by timeptr into a calendar time value with the same encoding as + that of the values returned by the time function. The original values of the tm_wday + and tm_yday components of the structure are ignored, and the original values of the + other components are not restricted to the ranges indicated above.309) On successful + completion, the values of the tm_wday and tm_yday components of the structure are + set appropriately, and the other components are set to represent the specified calendar + time, but with their values forced to the ranges indicated above; the final value of + tm_mday is not set until tm_mon and tm_year are determined. +
Returns +
+ The mktime function returns the specified calendar time encoded as a value of type + time_t. If the calendar time cannot be represented, the function returns the value + (time_t)(-1). +
+ EXAMPLE What day of the week is July 4, 2001? +
+ #include <stdio.h> + #include <time.h> + static const char *const wday[] = { + "Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", + "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "-unknown-" + }; + struct tm time_str; + /* ... */ ++ + + + + +
+ time_str.tm_year = 2001 - 1900; + time_str.tm_mon = 7 - 1; + time_str.tm_mday = 4; + time_str.tm_hour = 0; + time_str.tm_min = 0; + time_str.tm_sec = 1; + time_str.tm_isdst = -1; + if (mktime(&time_str) == (time_t)(-1)) + time_str.tm_wday = 7; + printf("%s\n", wday[time_str.tm_wday]); ++ + +
Footnotes +
309) Thus, a positive or zero value for tm_isdst causes the mktime function to presume initially that + Daylight Saving Time, respectively, is or is not in effect for the specified time. A negative value + causes it to attempt to determine whether Daylight Saving Time is in effect for the specified time. + + +
Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <time.h> + time_t time(time_t *timer); ++
Description +
+ The time function determines the current calendar time. The encoding of the value is + unspecified. +
Returns +
+ The time function returns the implementation's best approximation to the current + calendar time. The value (time_t)(-1) is returned if the calendar time is not + available. If timer is not a null pointer, the return value is also assigned to the object it + points to. + +
Contents +
+ Except for the strftime function, these functions each return a pointer to one of two + types of static objects: a broken-down time structure or an array of char. Execution of + any of the functions that return a pointer to one of these object types may overwrite the + information in any object of the same type pointed to by the value returned from any + previous call to any of them and the functions are not required to avoid data races. The + implementation shall behave as if no other library functions call these functions. + +

Synopsis +
+
+ #include <time.h> + char *asctime(const struct tm *timeptr); ++
Description +
+ The asctime function converts the broken-down time in the structure pointed to by + timeptr into a string in the form + +
+ Sun Sep 16 01:03:52 1973\n\0 ++ using the equivalent of the following algorithm. + char *asctime(const struct tm *timeptr) + { +

+ If any of the fields of the broken-down time contain values that are outside their normal + ranges,310) the behavior of the asctime function is undefined. Likewise, if the + calculated year exceeds four digits or is less than the year 1000, the behavior is + undefined. +

Description +
+ The strftime function places characters into the array pointed to by s as controlled by + the string pointed to by format. The format shall be a multibyte character sequence, + beginning and ending in its initial shift state. The format string consists of zero or + more conversion specifiers and ordinary multibyte characters. A conversion specifier + consists of a % character, possibly followed by an E or O modifier character (described + below), followed by a character that determines the behavior of the conversion specifier. + All ordinary multibyte characters (including the terminating null character) are copied + unchanged into the array. If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the + behavior is undefined. No more than maxsize characters are placed into the array. +
+ Each conversion specifier is replaced by appropriate characters as described in the + following list. The appropriate characters are determined using the LC_TIME category + of the current locale and by the values of zero or more members of the broken-down time + structure pointed to by timeptr, as specified in brackets in the description.

+ tm_sec] ++ %u is replaced by the ISO 8601 weekday as a decimal number (1-7), where Monday +
+ is 1. [tm_wday] ++ %U is replaced by the week number of the year (the first Sunday as the first day of week +
+ 1) as a decimal number (00-53). [tm_year, tm_wday, tm_yday] ++ %V is replaced by the ISO 8601 week number (see below) as a decimal number +
+ (01-53). [tm_year, tm_wday, tm_yday] ++ %w is replaced by the weekday as a decimal number (0-6), where Sunday is 0. +

In this system, + weeks begin on a Monday and week 1 of the year is the week that includes January 4th, + which is also the week that includes the first Thursday of the year, and is also the first + week that contains at least four days in the year. If the first Monday of January is the + 2nd, 3rd, or 4th, the preceding days are part of the last week of the preceding year; thus, + for Saturday 2nd January 1999, %G is replaced by 1998 and %V is replaced by 53. If + December 29th, 30th, or 31st is a Monday, it and any following days are part of week 1 of + the following year. Thus, for Tuesday 30th December 1997, %G is replaced by 1998 and + %V is replaced by 01. +
+ If a conversion specifier is not one of the above, the behavior is undefined. +

Otherwise, + zero is returned and the contents of the array are indeterminate. + + +
Contents +
+ The header <uchar.h> declares types and functions for manipulating Unicode + characters. +
+ The types declared are mbstate_t (described in 7.29.1) and size_t (described in + 7.19); +

+ char32_t ++ which is an unsigned integer type used for 32-bit characters and is the same type as + uint_least32_t (also described in 7.20.1.2). + +
Contents +
+ These functions have a parameter, ps, of type pointer to mbstate_t that points to an + object that can completely describe the current conversion state of the associated + multibyte character sequence, which the functions alter as necessary. If ps is a null + pointer, each function uses its own internal mbstate_t object instead, which is + initialized at program startup to the initial conversion state; the functions are not required + to avoid data races in this case. The implementation behaves as if no library function + calls these functions with a null pointer for ps. + +

Synopsis +
+
+ #include <uchar.h> + size_t mbrtoc16(char16_t * restrict pc16, + const char * restrict s, size_t n, + mbstate_t * restrict ps); ++
Description +
+ If s is a null pointer, the mbrtoc16 function is equivalent to the call: +
+ mbrtoc16(NULL, "", 1, ps) ++ In this case, the values of the parameters pc16 and n are ignored. +
+ If s is not a null pointer, the mbrtoc16 function inspects at most n bytes beginning with + the byte pointed to by s to determine the number of bytes needed to complete the next + multibyte character (including any shift sequences). If the function determines that the + next multibyte character is complete and valid, it determines the values of the + corresponding wide characters and then, if pc16 is not a null pointer, stores the value of + the first (or only) such character in the object pointed to by pc16. Subsequent calls will + + store successive wide characters without consuming any additional input until all the + characters have been stored. If the corresponding wide character is the null wide + character, the resulting state described is the initial conversion state. +
Returns +
+ The mbrtoc16 function returns the first of the following that applies (given the current + conversion state): + 0 if the next n or fewer bytes complete the multibyte character that +
+ corresponds to the null wide character (which is the value stored). ++ between 1 and n inclusive if the next n or fewer bytes complete a valid multibyte +

Contents +
Synopsis +
+
+ #include <stdio.h> + #include <wchar.h> + int fwprintf(FILE * restrict stream, + const wchar_t * restrict format, ...); ++
Description +
+ The fwprintf function writes output to the stream pointed to by stream, under + control of the wide string pointed to by format that specifies how subsequent arguments + are converted for output. If there are insufficient arguments for the format, the behavior + is undefined. If the format is exhausted while arguments remain, the excess arguments + are evaluated (as always) but are otherwise ignored. The fwprintf function returns + when the end of the format string is encountered. +
+ The format is composed of zero or more directives: ordinary wide characters (not %), + which are copied unchanged to the output stream; and conversion specifications, each of + which results in fetching zero or more subsequent arguments, converting them, if + applicable, according to the corresponding conversion specifier, and then writing the + result to the output stream. +
+ Each conversion specification is introduced by the wide character %. After the %, the + following appear in sequence: +
+ As noted above, a field width, or precision, or both, may be indicated by an asterisk. In + this case, an int argument supplies the field width or precision. The arguments + specifying field width, or precision, or both, shall appear (in that order) before the + argument (if any) to be converted. A negative field width argument is taken as a - flag + followed by a positive field width. A negative precision argument is taken as if the + precision were omitted. +
+ The flag wide characters and their meanings are: + - The result of the conversion is left-justified within the field. (It is right-justified if +
+ this flag is not specified.) ++ + The result of a signed conversion always begins with a plus or minus sign. (It +
+ begins with a sign only when a negative value is converted if this flag is not + specified.)318) ++ space If the first wide character of a signed conversion is not a sign, or if a signed +
+ conversion results in no wide characters, a space is prefixed to the result. If the + space and + flags both appear, the space flag is ignored. ++ # The result is converted to an ''alternative form''. For o conversion, it increases +
+ the precision, if and only if necessary, to force the first digit of the result to be a + zero (if the value and precision are both 0, a single 0 is printed). For x (or X) + conversion, a nonzero result has 0x (or 0X) prefixed to it. For a, A, e, E, f, F, g, ++ + + +
+ and G conversions, the result of converting a floating-point number always + contains a decimal-point wide character, even if no digits follow it. (Normally, a + decimal-point wide character appears in the result of these conversions only if a + digit follows it.) For g and G conversions, trailing zeros are not removed from the + result. For other conversions, the behavior is undefined. ++ 0 For d, i, o, u, x, X, a, A, e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, leading zeros +
+ (following any indication of sign or base) are used to pad to the field width rather + than performing space padding, except when converting an infinity or NaN. If the + 0 and - flags both appear, the 0 flag is ignored. For d, i, o, u, x, and X + conversions, if a precision is specified, the 0 flag is ignored. For other + conversions, the behavior is undefined. ++
+ The length modifiers and their meanings are: + hh Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a +
+ signed char or unsigned char argument (the argument will have + been promoted according to the integer promotions, but its value shall be + converted to signed char or unsigned char before printing); or that + a following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a signed char + argument. ++ h Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a +
+ short int or unsigned short int argument (the argument will + have been promoted according to the integer promotions, but its value shall + be converted to short int or unsigned short int before printing); + or that a following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a short + int argument. ++ l (ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a +
+ long int or unsigned long int argument; that a following n + conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a long int argument; that a + following c conversion specifier applies to a wint_t argument; that a + following s conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a wchar_t + argument; or has no effect on a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion + specifier. ++ ll (ell-ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a +
+ long long int or unsigned long long int argument; or that a + following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a long long int + argument. ++ j Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to + +
+ an intmax_t or uintmax_t argument; or that a following n conversion + specifier applies to a pointer to an intmax_t argument. ++ z Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a +
+ size_t or the corresponding signed integer type argument; or that a + following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a signed integer type + corresponding to size_t argument. ++ t Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion specifier applies to a +
+ ptrdiff_t or the corresponding unsigned integer type argument; or that a + following n conversion specifier applies to a pointer to a ptrdiff_t + argument. ++ L Specifies that a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion specifier +
+ applies to a long double argument. ++ If a length modifier appears with any conversion specifier other than as specified above, + the behavior is undefined. +
+ The conversion specifiers and their meanings are: + d,i The int argument is converted to signed decimal in the style [-]dddd. The +
+ precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear; if the value + being converted can be represented in fewer digits, it is expanded with + leading zeros. The default precision is 1. The result of converting a zero + value with a precision of zero is no wide characters. ++ o,u,x,X The unsigned int argument is converted to unsigned octal (o), unsigned +
+ decimal (u), or unsigned hexadecimal notation (x or X) in the style dddd; the + letters abcdef are used for x conversion and the letters ABCDEF for X + conversion. The precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear; + if the value being converted can be represented in fewer digits, it is expanded + with leading zeros. The default precision is 1. The result of converting a + zero value with a precision of zero is no wide characters. ++ f,F A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted to + +
+ decimal notation in the style [-]ddd.ddd, where the number of digits after + the decimal-point wide character is equal to the precision specification. If the + precision is missing, it is taken as 6; if the precision is zero and the # flag is + not specified, no decimal-point wide character appears. If a decimal-point + wide character appears, at least one digit appears before it. The value is + rounded to the appropriate number of digits. + A double argument representing an infinity is converted in one of the styles + [-]inf or [-]infinity -- which style is implementation-defined. A + double argument representing a NaN is converted in one of the styles + [-]nan or [-]nan(n-wchar-sequence) -- which style, and the meaning of + any n-wchar-sequence, is implementation-defined. The F conversion + specifier produces INF, INFINITY, or NAN instead of inf, infinity, or + nan, respectively.319) ++ e,E A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in the +
+ style [-]d.ddd e(+-)dd, where there is one digit (which is nonzero if the + argument is nonzero) before the decimal-point wide character and the number + of digits after it is equal to the precision; if the precision is missing, it is taken + as 6; if the precision is zero and the # flag is not specified, no decimal-point + wide character appears. The value is rounded to the appropriate number of + digits. The E conversion specifier produces a number with E instead of e + introducing the exponent. The exponent always contains at least two digits, + and only as many more digits as necessary to represent the exponent. If the + value is zero, the exponent is zero. + A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style + of an f or F conversion specifier. ++ g,G A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in +
+ style f or e (or in style F or E in the case of a G conversion specifier), + depending on the value converted and the precision. Let P equal the + precision if nonzero, 6 if the precision is omitted, or 1 if the precision is zero. + Then, if a conversion with style E would have an exponent of X: + -- if P > X >= -4, the conversion is with style f (or F) and precision + P - (X + 1). + -- otherwise, the conversion is with style e (or E) and precision P - 1. + Finally, unless the # flag is used, any trailing zeros are removed from the + fractional portion of the result and the decimal-point wide character is + removed if there is no fractional portion remaining. + A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style + of an f or F conversion specifier. ++ a,A A double argument representing a floating-point number is converted in the +
+ style [-]0xh.hhhh p(+-)d, where there is one hexadecimal digit (which is + nonzero if the argument is a normalized floating-point number and is + otherwise unspecified) before the decimal-point wide character320) and the + number of hexadecimal digits after it is equal to the precision; if the precision + is missing and FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, then the precision is sufficient ++ + + +
+ for an exact representation of the value; if the precision is missing and + FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, then the precision is sufficient to + distinguish321) values of type double, except that trailing zeros may be + omitted; if the precision is zero and the # flag is not specified, no decimal- + point wide character appears. The letters abcdef are used for a conversion + and the letters ABCDEF for A conversion. The A conversion specifier + produces a number with X and P instead of x and p. The exponent always + contains at least one digit, and only as many more digits as necessary to + represent the decimal exponent of 2. If the value is zero, the exponent is + zero. + A double argument representing an infinity or NaN is converted in the style + of an f or F conversion specifier. ++ c If no l length modifier is present, the int argument is converted to a wide +
+ character as if by calling btowc and the resulting wide character is written. + If an l length modifier is present, the wint_t argument is converted to + wchar_t and written. ++ s If no l length modifier is present, the argument shall be a pointer to the initial +
+ element of a character array containing a multibyte character sequence + beginning in the initial shift state. Characters from the array are converted as + if by repeated calls to the mbrtowc function, with the conversion state + described by an mbstate_t object initialized to zero before the first + multibyte character is converted, and written up to (but not including) the + terminating null wide character. If the precision is specified, no more than + that many wide characters are written. If the precision is not specified or is + greater than the size of the converted array, the converted array shall contain a + null wide character. + If an l length modifier is present, the argument shall be a pointer to the initial + element of an array of wchar_t type. Wide characters from the array are + written up to (but not including) a terminating null wide character. If the + precision is specified, no more than that many wide characters are written. If + the precision is not specified or is greater than the size of the array, the array + shall contain a null wide character. ++ p The argument shall be a pointer to void. The value of the pointer is +
+ converted to a sequence of printing wide characters, in an implementation- ++ + +
+ defined manner. ++ n The argument shall be a pointer to signed integer into which is written the +
+ number of wide characters written to the output stream so far by this call to + fwprintf. No argument is converted, but one is consumed. If the + conversion specification includes any flags, a field width, or a precision, the + behavior is undefined. ++ % A % wide character is written. No argument is converted. The complete +
+ conversion specification shall be %%. ++
+ If a conversion specification is invalid, the behavior is undefined.322) If any argument is + not the correct type for the corresponding conversion specification, the behavior is + undefined. +
+ In no case does a nonexistent or small field width cause truncation of a field; if the result + of a conversion is wider than the field width, the field is expanded to contain the + conversion result. +
+ For a and A conversions, if FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the value is correctly rounded + to a hexadecimal floating number with the given precision. +
Recommended practice +
+ For a and A conversions, if FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2 and the result is not exactly + representable in the given precision, the result should be one of the two adjacent numbers + in hexadecimal floating style with the given precision, with the extra stipulation that the + error should have a correct sign for the current rounding direction. +
+ For e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, if the number of significant decimal digits is at most + DECIMAL_DIG, then the result should be correctly rounded.323) If the number of + significant decimal digits is more than DECIMAL_DIG but the source value is exactly + representable with DECIMAL_DIG digits, then the result should be an exact + representation with trailing zeros. Otherwise, the source value is bounded by two + adjacent decimal strings L < U, both having DECIMAL_DIG significant digits; the value + of the resultant decimal string D should satisfy L <= D <= U, with the extra stipulation that + the error should have a correct sign for the current rounding direction. +
Returns +
+ The fwprintf function returns the number of wide characters transmitted, or a negative + value if an output or encoding error occurred. + + +
Environmental limits +
+ The number of wide characters that can be produced by any single conversion shall be at + least 4095. +
+ EXAMPLE To print a date and time in the form ''Sunday, July 3, 10:02'' followed by pi to five decimal + places: +

317) Note that 0 is taken as a flag, not as the beginning of a field width. + +
318) The results of all floating conversions of a negative zero, and of negative values that round to zero, + include a minus sign. + +
319) When applied to infinite and NaN values, the -, +, and space flag wide characters have their usual + meaning; the # and 0 flag wide characters have no effect. + +
320) Binary implementations can choose the hexadecimal digit to the left of the decimal-point wide + character so that subsequent digits align to nibble (4-bit) boundaries. + +
321) The precision p is sufficient to distinguish values of the source type if 16 p-1 > b n where b is + FLT_RADIX and n is the number of base-b digits in the significand of the source type. A smaller p + might suffice depending on the implementation's scheme for determining the digit to the left of the + decimal-point wide character. + +

323) For binary-to-decimal conversion, the result format's values are the numbers representable with the + given format specifier. The number of significant digits is determined by the format specifier, and in + the case of fixed-point conversion by the source value as well. + + +

+ #include <stdio.h> + #include <wchar.h> + int fwscanf(FILE * restrict stream, + const wchar_t * restrict format, ...); ++
Description +
+ The fwscanf function reads input from the stream pointed to by stream, under + control of the wide string pointed to by format that specifies the admissible input + sequences and how they are to be converted for assignment, using subsequent arguments + as pointers to the objects to receive the converted input. If there are insufficient + arguments for the format, the behavior is undefined. If the format is exhausted while + arguments remain, the excess arguments are evaluated (as always) but are otherwise + ignored. +
+ The format is composed of zero or more directives: one or more white-space wide + characters, an ordinary wide character (neither % nor a white-space wide character), or a + conversion specification. Each conversion specification is introduced by the wide + character %. After the %, the following appear in sequence: +
+ The fwscanf function executes each directive of the format in turn. When all directives + have been executed, or if a directive fails (as detailed below), the function returns. + Failures are described as input failures (due to the occurrence of an encoding error or the + unavailability of input characters), or matching failures (due to inappropriate input). +
+ A directive composed of white-space wide character(s) is executed by reading input up to + the first non-white-space wide character (which remains unread), or until no more wide + characters can be read. +
+ A directive that is an ordinary wide character is executed by reading the next wide + character of the stream. If that wide character differs from the directive, the directive + fails and the differing and subsequent wide characters remain unread. Similarly, if end- + of-file, an encoding error, or a read error prevents a wide character from being read, the + directive fails. +
+ A directive that is a conversion specification defines a set of matching input sequences, as + described below for each specifier. A conversion specification is executed in the + following steps: +
+ Input white-space wide characters (as specified by the iswspace function) are skipped, + unless the specification includes a [, c, or n specifier.324) +
+ An input item is read from the stream, unless the specification includes an n specifier. An + input item is defined as the longest sequence of input wide characters which does not + exceed any specified field width and which is, or is a prefix of, a matching input + sequence.325) The first wide character, if any, after the input item remains unread. If the + length of the input item is zero, the execution of the directive fails; this condition is a + matching failure unless end-of-file, an encoding error, or a read error prevented input + from the stream, in which case it is an input failure. +
+ Except in the case of a % specifier, the input item (or, in the case of a %n directive, the + count of input wide characters) is converted to a type appropriate to the conversion + specifier. If the input item is not a matching sequence, the execution of the directive fails: + this condition is a matching failure. Unless assignment suppression was indicated by a *, + the result of the conversion is placed in the object pointed to by the first argument + following the format argument that has not already received a conversion result. If this + + + + object does not have an appropriate type, or if the result of the conversion cannot be + represented in the object, the behavior is undefined. +
+ The length modifiers and their meanings are: + hh Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to signed char or unsigned char. ++ h Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to short int or unsigned short + int. ++ l (ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to long int or unsigned long + int; that a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion specifier applies to + an argument with type pointer to double; or that a following c, s, or [ + conversion specifier applies to an argument with type pointer to wchar_t. ++ ll (ell-ell) Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to long long int or unsigned + long long int. ++ j Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to intmax_t or uintmax_t. ++ z Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to size_t or the corresponding signed + integer type. ++ t Specifies that a following d, i, o, u, x, X, or n conversion specifier applies +
+ to an argument with type pointer to ptrdiff_t or the corresponding + unsigned integer type. ++ L Specifies that a following a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion specifier +
+ applies to an argument with type pointer to long double. ++ If a length modifier appears with any conversion specifier other than as specified above, + the behavior is undefined. +
+ The conversion specifiers and their meanings are: + d Matches an optionally signed decimal integer, whose format is the same as +
+ expected for the subject sequence of the wcstol function with the value 10 + for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to + signed integer. ++ i Matches an optionally signed integer, whose format is the same as expected + +

+ as expected for the subject sequence of the wcstoul function with the value + 16 for the base argument. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to + unsigned integer. ++ a,e,f,g Matches an optionally signed floating-point number, infinity, or NaN, whose +
+ format is the same as expected for the subject sequence of the wcstod + function. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to floating. ++ c Matches a sequence of wide characters of exactly the number specified by the +
+ field width (1 if no field width is present in the directive). + If no l length modifier is present, characters from the input field are + converted as if by repeated calls to the wcrtomb function, with the + conversion state described by an mbstate_t object initialized to zero + before the first wide character is converted.

+ characters (the scanset). + If no l length modifier is present, characters from the input field are + converted as if by repeated calls to the wcrtomb function, with the + conversion state described by an mbstate_t object initialized to zero + before the first wide character is converted. The corresponding argument + shall be a pointer to the initial element of a character array large enough to + accept the sequence and a terminating null character, which will be added + automatically. + If an l length modifier is present, the corresponding argument shall be a + pointer to the initial element of an array of wchar_t large enough to accept + the sequence and the terminating null wide character, which will be added + automatically. + The conversion specifier includes all subsequent wide characters in the + format string, up to and including the matching right bracket (]). The wide + characters between the brackets (the scanlist) compose the scanset, unless the + wide character after the left bracket is a circumflex (^), in which case the + scanset contains all wide characters that do not appear in the scanlist between + the circumflex and the right bracket. If the conversion specifier begins with + [] or [^], the right bracket wide character is in the scanlist and the next + following right bracket wide character is the matching right bracket that ends + the specification; otherwise the first following right bracket wide character is + the one that ends the specification. If a - wide character is in the scanlist and + is not the first, nor the second where the first wide character is a ^, nor the + last character, the behavior is implementation-defined. ++ p Matches an implementation-defined set of sequences, which should be the +
+ same as the set of sequences that may be produced by the %p conversion of + the fwprintf function. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to a + pointer to void. The input item is converted to a pointer value in an + implementation-defined manner. If the input item is a value converted earlier + during the same program execution, the pointer that results shall compare + equal to that value; otherwise the behavior of the %p conversion is undefined. ++ n No input is consumed. The corresponding argument shall be a pointer to + +
+ signed integer into which is to be written the number of wide characters read + from the input stream so far by this call to the fwscanf function. Execution + of a %n directive does not increment the assignment count returned at the + completion of execution of the fwscanf function. No argument is + converted, but one is consumed. If the conversion specification includes an + assignment-suppressing wide character or a field width, the behavior is + undefined. ++ % Matches a single % wide character; no conversion or assignment occurs. The +
+ complete conversion specification shall be %%. ++
+ If a conversion specification is invalid, the behavior is undefined.326) +
+ The conversion specifiers A, E, F, G, and X are also valid and behave the same as, + respectively, a, e, f, g, and x. +
+ Trailing white space (including new-line wide characters) is left unread unless matched + by a directive. The success of literal matches and suppressed assignments is not directly + determinable other than via the %n directive. +
Returns +
+ The fwscanf function returns the value of the macro EOF if an input failure occurs + before the first conversion (if any) has completed. Otherwise, the function returns the + number of input items assigned, which can be fewer than provided for, or even zero, in + the event of an early matching failure. +

+ 25 54.32E-1 thompson ++ will assign to n the value 3, to i the value 25, to x the value 5.432, and to name the sequence + thompson\0. + +

+ One wide character of pushback is guaranteed, even if the call to the ungetwc function + follows just after a call to a formatted wide character input function fwscanf, + vfwscanf, vwscanf, or wscanf. If the ungetwc function is called too many times + on the same stream without an intervening read or file positioning operation on that + stream, the operation may fail. +
+ If the value of c equals that of the macro WEOF, the operation fails and the input stream is + unchanged. +
+ A successful call to the ungetwc function clears the end-of-file indicator for the stream. + The value of the file position indicator for the stream after reading or discarding all + pushed-back wide characters is the same as it was before the wide characters were pushed + back. For a text or binary stream, the value of its file position indicator after a successful + call to the ungetwc function is unspecified until all pushed-back wide characters are + read or discarded. +
Returns +
+ The ungetwc function returns the wide character pushed back, or WEOF if the operation + fails. + +

Description +
+ The wcstod, wcstof, and wcstold functions convert the initial portion of the wide + string pointed to by nptr to double, float, and long double representation, + respectively. First, they decompose the input string into three parts: an initial, possibly + empty, sequence of white-space wide characters (as specified by the iswspace + function), a subject sequence resembling a floating-point constant or representing an + infinity or NaN; and a final wide string of one or more unrecognized wide characters, + including the terminating null wide character of the input wide string. Then, they attempt + to convert the subject sequence to a floating-point number, and return the result. +
+ The expected form of the subject sequence is an optional plus or minus sign, then one of + the following: +
+ n-wchar-sequence: + digit + nondigit + n-wchar-sequence digit + n-wchar-sequence nondigit ++
+ If the subject sequence has the expected form for a floating-point number, the sequence of + wide characters starting with the first digit or the decimal-point wide character + (whichever occurs first) is interpreted as a floating constant according to the rules of + 6.4.4.2, except that the decimal-point wide character is used in place of a period, and that + if neither an exponent part nor a decimal-point wide character appears in a decimal + floating point number, or if a binary exponent part does not appear in a hexadecimal + floating point number, an exponent part of the appropriate type with value zero is + assumed to follow the last digit in the string. If the subject sequence begins with a minus + sign, the sequence is interpreted as negated.330) A wide character sequence INF or + INFINITY is interpreted as an infinity, if representable in the return type, else like a + floating constant that is too large for the range of the return type. A wide character + sequence NAN or NAN(n-wchar-sequenceopt) is interpreted as a quiet NaN, if supported + in the return type, else like a subject sequence part that does not have the expected form; + the meaning of the n-wchar sequences is implementation-defined.331) A pointer to the + final wide string is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided that endptr is + not a null pointer. +
+ If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form and FLT_RADIX is a power of 2, the + value resulting from the conversion is correctly rounded. +
+ In other than the "C" locale, additional locale-specific subject sequence forms may be + accepted. +
+ If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form, no conversion is + performed; the value of nptr is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided + that endptr is not a null pointer. +
Recommended practice +
+ If the subject sequence has the hexadecimal form, FLT_RADIX is not a power of 2, and + the result is not exactly representable, the result should be one of the two numbers in the + appropriate internal format that are adjacent to the hexadecimal floating source value, + with the extra stipulation that the error should have a correct sign for the current rounding + direction. + + + + +
+ If the subject sequence has the decimal form and at most DECIMAL_DIG (defined in + <float.h>) significant digits, the result should be correctly rounded. If the subject + sequence D has the decimal form and more than DECIMAL_DIG significant digits, + consider the two bounding, adjacent decimal strings L and U, both having + DECIMAL_DIG significant digits, such that the values of L, D, and U satisfy L <= D <= U. + The result should be one of the (equal or adjacent) values that would be obtained by + correctly rounding L and U according to the current rounding direction, with the extra + stipulation that the error with respect to D should have a correct sign for the current + rounding direction.332) +
Returns +
+ The functions return the converted value, if any. If no conversion could be performed, + zero is returned. If the correct value overflows and default rounding is in effect (7.12.1), + plus or minus HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, or HUGE_VALL is returned (according to the + return type and sign of the value), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in + errno. If the result underflows (7.12.1), the functions return a value whose magnitude is + no greater than the smallest normalized positive number in the return type; whether + errno acquires the value ERANGE is implementation-defined. + + + + + + +
Footnotes +
330) It is unspecified whether a minus-signed sequence is converted to a negative number directly or by + negating the value resulting from converting the corresponding unsigned sequence (see F.5); the two + methods may yield different results if rounding is toward positive or negative infinity. In either case, + the functions honor the sign of zero if floating-point arithmetic supports signed zeros. + +
331) An implementation may use the n-wchar sequence to determine extra information to be represented in + the NaN's significand. + +
332) DECIMAL_DIG, defined in <float.h>, should be sufficiently large that L and U will usually round + to the same internal floating value, but if not will round to adjacent values. + + +

If the + value of base is 16, the wide characters 0x or 0X may optionally precede the sequence + of letters and digits, following the sign if present. + +
+ The subject sequence is defined as the longest initial subsequence of the input wide + string, starting with the first non-white-space wide character, that is of the expected form. + The subject sequence contains no wide characters if the input wide string is empty or + consists entirely of white space, or if the first non-white-space wide character is other + than a sign or a permissible letter or digit. +
+ If the subject sequence has the expected form and the value of base is zero, the sequence + of wide characters starting with the first digit is interpreted as an integer constant + according to the rules of 6.4.4.1. If the subject sequence has the expected form and the + value of base is between 2 and 36, it is used as the base for conversion, ascribing to each + letter its value as given above. If the subject sequence begins with a minus sign, the value + resulting from the conversion is negated (in the return type). A pointer to the final wide + string is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided that endptr is not a null + pointer. +
+ In other than the "C" locale, additional locale-specific subject sequence forms may be + accepted. +
+ If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form, no conversion is + performed; the value of nptr is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided + that endptr is not a null pointer. +
Returns +
+ The wcstol, wcstoll, wcstoul, and wcstoull functions return the converted + value, if any. If no conversion could be performed, zero is returned. If the correct value + is outside the range of representable values, LONG_MIN, LONG_MAX, LLONG_MIN, + LLONG_MAX, ULONG_MAX, or ULLONG_MAX is returned (according to the return type + sign of the value, if any), and the value of the macro ERANGE is stored in errno. + +

Description +
+ A sequence of calls to the wcstok function breaks the wide string pointed to by s1 into + a sequence of tokens, each of which is delimited by a wide character from the wide string + pointed to by s2. The third argument points to a caller-provided wchar_t pointer into + which the wcstok function stores information necessary for it to continue scanning the + same wide string. +
+ The first call in a sequence has a non-null first argument and stores an initial value in the + object pointed to by ptr. Subsequent calls in the sequence have a null first argument and + the object pointed to by ptr is required to have the value stored by the previous call in + the sequence, which is then updated. The separator wide string pointed to by s2 may be + different from call to call. +
+ The first call in the sequence searches the wide string pointed to by s1 for the first wide + character that is not contained in the current separator wide string pointed to by s2. If no + such wide character is found, then there are no tokens in the wide string pointed to by s1 + and the wcstok function returns a null pointer. If such a wide character is found, it is + the start of the first token. +
+ The wcstok function then searches from there for a wide character that is contained in + the current separator wide string. If no such wide character is found, the current token + + extends to the end of the wide string pointed to by s1, and subsequent searches in the + same wide string for a token return a null pointer. If such a wide character is found, it is + overwritten by a null wide character, which terminates the current token. +
+ In all cases, the wcstok function stores sufficient information in the pointer pointed to + by ptr so that subsequent calls, with a null pointer for s1 and the unmodified pointer + value for ptr, shall start searching just past the element overwritten by a null wide + character (if any). +
Returns +
+ The wcstok function returns a pointer to the first wide character of a token, or a null + pointer if there is no token. +

Contents +
+ The header <wchar.h> declares an extended set of functions useful for conversion + between multibyte characters and wide characters. +
+ Most of the following functions -- those that are listed as ''restartable'', 7.28.6.3 and + 7.28.6.4 -- take as a last argument a pointer to an object of type mbstate_t that is used + to describe the current conversion state from a particular multibyte character sequence to + a wide character sequence (or the reverse) under the rules of a particular setting for the + LC_CTYPE category of the current locale. +
+ The initial conversion state corresponds, for a conversion in either direction, to the + beginning of a new multibyte character in the initial shift state. A zero-valued + mbstate_t object is (at least) one way to describe an initial conversion state. A zero- + valued mbstate_t object can be used to initiate conversion involving any multibyte + character sequence, in any LC_CTYPE category setting. If an mbstate_t object has + been altered by any of the functions described in this subclause, and is then used with a + different multibyte character sequence, or in the other conversion direction, or with a + different LC_CTYPE category setting than on earlier function calls, the behavior is + undefined.335) +
+ On entry, each function takes the described conversion state (either internal or pointed to + by an argument) as current. The conversion state described by the referenced object is + altered as needed to track the shift state, and the position within a multibyte character, for + the associated multibyte character sequence. + + + + + + +
Footnotes +
335) Thus, a particular mbstate_t object can be used, for example, with both the mbrtowc and + mbsrtowcs functions as long as they are used to step sequentially through the same multibyte + character string. + + +

If + wc is a null wide character, a null byte is stored, preceded by any shift sequence needed + to restore the initial shift state; the resulting state described is the initial conversion state. +
Returns +
+ The wcrtomb function returns the number of bytes stored in the array object (including + any shift sequences).

Description +
+ The mbsrtowcs function converts a sequence of multibyte characters that begins in the + conversion state described by the object pointed to by ps, from the array indirectly + pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding wide characters. If dst is not a null + pointer, the converted characters are stored into the array pointed to by dst.

+ If dst is not a null pointer, the pointer object pointed to by src is assigned either a null + pointer (if conversion stopped due to reaching a terminating null character) or the address + just past the last multibyte character converted (if any). If conversion stopped due to + reaching a terminating null character and if dst is not a null pointer, the resulting state + described is the initial conversion state. +
Returns +
+ If the input conversion encounters a sequence of bytes that do not form a valid multibyte + character, an encoding error occurs: the mbsrtowcs function stores the value of the + macro EILSEQ in errno and returns (size_t)(-1); the conversion state is + unspecified.

If dst is not a + null pointer, the converted characters are then stored into the array pointed to by dst. + Conversion continues up to and including a terminating null wide character, which is also + stored. Conversion stops earlier in two cases: when a wide character is reached that does + not correspond to a valid multibyte character, or (if dst is not a null pointer) when the + next multibyte character would exceed the limit of len total bytes to be stored into the + array pointed to by dst. Each conversion takes place as if by a call to the wcrtomb + function.338) +
+ If dst is not a null pointer, the pointer object pointed to by src is assigned either a null + pointer (if conversion stopped due to reaching a terminating null wide character) or the + address just past the last wide character converted (if any). If conversion stopped due to + reaching a terminating null wide character, the resulting state described is the initial + conversion state. +
Returns +
+ If conversion stops because a wide character is reached that does not correspond to a + valid multibyte character, an encoding error occurs: the wcsrtombs function stores the + value of the macro EILSEQ in errno and returns (size_t)(-1); the conversion + state is unspecified. Otherwise, it returns the number of bytes in the resulting multibyte + character sequence, not including the terminating null character (if any). + + + + + + +
Footnotes +
338) If conversion stops because a terminating null wide character has been reached, the bytes stored + include those necessary to reach the initial shift state immediately before the null byte. + + +

+ The header <wctype.h> defines one macro, and declares three data types and many + functions.339) +
+ The types declared are +
+ wint_t ++ described in 7.28.1; +
+ wctrans_t ++ which is a scalar type that can hold values which represent locale-specific character + mappings; and +
+ wctype_t ++ which is a scalar type that can hold values which represent locale-specific character + classifications. +
+ The macro defined is WEOF (described in 7.28.1). +
+ The functions declared are grouped as follows: +
+ For all functions described in this subclause that accept an argument of type wint_t, the + value shall be representable as a wchar_t or shall equal the value of the macro WEOF. If + this argument has any other value, the behavior is undefined. +
+ The behavior of these functions is affected by the LC_CTYPE category of the current + locale. + + + + + + +
Footnotes +
339) See ''future library directions'' (7.30.13). + + +
Contents +
+ The header <wctype.h> declares several functions useful for classifying wide + characters. +
+ The term printing wide character refers to a member of a locale-specific set of wide + characters, each of which occupies at least one printing position on a display device. The + term control wide character refers to a member of a locale-specific set of wide characters + that are not printing wide characters. + +
Contents +
+ The functions in this subclause return nonzero (true) if and only if the value of the + argument wc conforms to that in the description of the function. +
+ Each of the following functions returns true for each wide character that corresponds (as + if by a call to the wctob function) to a single-byte character for which the corresponding + character classification function from 7.4.1 returns true, except that the iswgraph and + iswpunct functions may differ with respect to wide characters other than L' ' that are + both printing and white-space wide characters.340) +
Forward references: the wctob function (7.28.6.1.2). + +
Footnotes +
340) For example, if the expression isalpha(wctob(wc)) evaluates to true, then the call + iswalpha(wc) also returns true. But, if the expression isgraph(wctob(wc)) evaluates to true + (which cannot occur for wc == L' ' of course), then either iswgraph(wc) or iswprint(wc) + && iswspace(wc) is true, but not both. + + +

Contents +
+ This annex specifies C language support for the IEC 60559 floating-point standard. The + IEC 60559 floating-point standard is specifically Binary floating-point arithmetic for + microprocessor systems, second edition (IEC 60559:1989), previously designated + IEC 559:1989 and as IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic + (ANSI/IEEE 754-1985). IEEE Standard for Radix-Independent Floating-Point + Arithmetic (ANSI/IEEE 854-1987) generalizes the binary standard to remove + dependencies on radix and word length. IEC 60559 generally refers to the floating-point + standard, as in IEC 60559 operation, IEC 60559 format, etc. An implementation that + defines __STDC_IEC_559__ shall conform to the specifications in this annex.343) + Where a binding between the C language and IEC 60559 is indicated, the + IEC 60559-specified behavior is adopted by reference, unless stated otherwise. Since + negative and positive infinity are representable in IEC 60559 formats, all real numbers lie + within the range of representable values. + +
Footnotes +
343) Implementations that do not define __STDC_IEC_559__ are not required to conform to these + specifications. + + +
Contents +
+ The C floating types match the IEC 60559 formats as follows: +
Recommended practice +
+ The long double type should match an IEC 60559 extended format. + +
Footnotes +
344) ''Extended'' is IEC 60559's double-extended data format. Extended refers to both the common 80-bit + and quadruple 128-bit IEC 60559 formats. + +
345) A non-IEC 60559 long double type is required to provide infinity and NaNs, as its values include + all double values. + + +
Contents +
+ This specification does not define the behavior of signaling NaNs.346) It generally uses + the term NaN to denote quiet NaNs. The NAN and INFINITY macros and the nan + functions in <math.h> provide designations for IEC 60559 NaNs and infinities. + +
Footnotes +
346) Since NaNs created by IEC 60559 operations are always quiet, quiet NaNs (along with infinities) are + sufficient for closure of the arithmetic. + + +
Contents +
+ C operators and functions provide IEC 60559 required and recommended facilities as + listed below. +
Contents +
+ If the integer type is _Bool, 6.3.1.2 applies and no floating-point exceptions are raised + (even for NaN). Otherwise, if the floating value is infinite or NaN or if the integral part + of the floating value exceeds the range of the integer type, then the ''invalid'' floating- + point exception is raised and the resulting value is unspecified. Otherwise, the resulting + value is determined by 6.3.1.4. Conversion of an integral floating value that does not + exceed the range of the integer type raises no floating-point exceptions; whether + conversion of a non-integral floating value raises the ''inexact'' floating-point exception is + unspecified.347) + +
Footnotes +
347) ANSI/IEEE 854, but not IEC 60559 (ANSI/IEEE 754), directly specifies that floating-to-integer + conversions raise the ''inexact'' floating-point exception for non-integer in-range values. In those + cases where it matters, library functions can be used to effect such conversions with or without raising + the ''inexact'' floating-point exception. See rint, lrint, llrint, and nearbyint in + <math.h>. + + +
Contents +
+ Conversion from the widest supported IEC 60559 format to decimal with + DECIMAL_DIG digits and back is the identity function.348) +
+ Conversions involving IEC 60559 formats follow all pertinent recommended practice. In + particular, conversion between any supported IEC 60559 format and decimal with + DECIMAL_DIG or fewer significant digits is correctly rounded (honoring the current + rounding mode), which assures that conversion from the widest supported IEC 60559 + format to decimal with DECIMAL_DIG digits and back is the identity function. + + + + +
+ Functions such as strtod that convert character sequences to floating types honor the + rounding direction. Hence, if the rounding direction might be upward or downward, the + implementation cannot convert a minus-signed sequence by negating the converted + unsigned sequence. + +
Footnotes +
348) If the minimum-width IEC 60559 extended format (64 bits of precision) is supported, + DECIMAL_DIG shall be at least 21. If IEC 60559 double (53 bits of precision) is the widest + IEC 60559 format supported, then DECIMAL_DIG shall be at least 17. (By contrast, LDBL_DIG and + DBL_DIG are 18 and 15, respectively, for these formats.) + + +
Contents +
Footnotes +

Contents +
+ A contracted expression is correctly rounded (once) and treats infinities, NaNs, signed + zeros, subnormals, and the rounding directions in a manner consistent with the basic + arithmetic operations covered by IEC 60559. +
Recommended practice +
+ A contracted expression should raise floating-point exceptions in a manner generally + consistent with the basic arithmetic operations. * + +
Contents +
+ The floating-point environment defined in <fenv.h> includes the IEC 60559 floating- + point exception status flags and directed-rounding control modes. It includes also + IEC 60559 dynamic rounding precision and trap enablement modes, if the + implementation supports them.350) + +
Footnotes +
350) This specification does not require dynamic rounding precision nor trap enablement modes. + + +
Contents +
+ IEC 60559 requires that floating-point operations implicitly raise floating-point exception + status flags, and that rounding control modes can be set explicitly to affect result values of + floating-point operations. When the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma (defined in + <fenv.h>) is ''on'', these changes to the floating-point state are treated as side effects + which respect sequence points.351) + + + + + + +
Footnotes +
351) If the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''off'', the implementation is free to assume the floating- + point control modes will be the default ones and the floating-point status flags will not be tested, + which allows certain optimizations (see F.9). + + +
Contents +
+ During translation the IEC 60559 default modes are in effect: +
Recommended practice +
+ The implementation should produce a diagnostic message for each translation-time + floating-point exception, other than ''inexact'';352) the implementation should then + proceed with the translation of the program. + +
Footnotes +
352) As floating constants are converted to appropriate internal representations at translation time, their + conversion is subject to default rounding modes and raises no execution-time floating-point exceptions + (even where the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on''). Library functions, for example + strtod, provide execution-time conversion of numeric strings. + + +
Contents +
+ At program startup the floating-point environment is initialized as prescribed by + IEC 60559: +
Contents +
+ An arithmetic constant expression of floating type, other than one in an initializer for an + object that has static or thread storage duration, is evaluated (as if) during execution; thus, + it is affected by any operative floating-point control modes and raises floating-point + exceptions as required by IEC 60559 (provided the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma + is ''on'').353) +
+ EXAMPLE + + + + +
+ #include <fenv.h> + #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON + void f(void) + { + float w[] = { 0.0/0.0 }; // raises an exception + static float x = 0.0/0.0; // does not raise an exception + float y = 0.0/0.0; // raises an exception + double z = 0.0/0.0; // raises an exception + /* ... */ + } ++
+ For the static initialization, the division is done at translation time, raising no (execution-time) floating- + point exceptions. On the other hand, for the three automatic initializations the invalid division occurs at + execution time. + + +
Footnotes +
353) Where the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on'', results of inexact expressions like 1.0/3.0
+ are affected by rounding modes set at execution time, and expressions such as 0.0/0.0 and
+ 1.0/0.0 generate execution-time floating-point exceptions. The programmer can achieve the
+ efficiency of translation-time evaluation through static initialization, such as
+
+
+ const static double one_third = 1.0/3.0;
+
+
+
+
Contents +
+ All computation for automatic initialization is done (as if) at execution time; thus, it is + affected by any operative modes and raises floating-point exceptions as required by + IEC 60559 (provided the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on''). All computation + for initialization of objects that have static or thread storage duration is done (as if) at + translation time. +
+ EXAMPLE +
+ #include <fenv.h> + #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON + void f(void) + { + float u[] = { 1.1e75 }; // raises exceptions + static float v = 1.1e75; // does not raise exceptions + float w = 1.1e75; // raises exceptions + double x = 1.1e75; // may raise exceptions + float y = 1.1e75f; // may raise exceptions + long double z = 1.1e75; // does not raise exceptions + /* ... */ + } ++
+ The static initialization of v raises no (execution-time) floating-point exceptions because its computation is + done at translation time. The automatic initialization of u and w require an execution-time conversion to + float of the wider value 1.1e75, which raises floating-point exceptions. The automatic initializations + of x and y entail execution-time conversion; however, in some expression evaluation methods, the + conversions is not to a narrower format, in which case no floating-point exception is raised.354) The + automatic initialization of z entails execution-time conversion, but not to a narrower format, so no floating- + point exception is raised. Note that the conversions of the floating constants 1.1e75 and 1.1e75f to + + + + + their internal representations occur at translation time in all cases. + + +
Footnotes +
354) Use of float_t and double_t variables increases the likelihood of translation-time computation.
+ For example, the automatic initialization
+
+
+ double_t x = 1.1e75;
+
+ could be done at translation time, regardless of the expression evaluation method.

+ Operations defined in 6.5 and functions and macros defined for the standard libraries + change floating-point status flags and control modes just as indicated by their + specifications (including conformance to IEC 60559). They do not change flags or modes + (so as to be detectable by the user) in any other cases. +
+ If the argument to the feraiseexcept function in <fenv.h> represents IEC 60559 + valid coincident floating-point exceptions for atomic operations (namely ''overflow'' and + ''inexact'', or ''underflow'' and ''inexact''), then ''overflow'' or ''underflow'' is raised + before ''inexact''. + +
Contents +
+ This section identifies code transformations that might subvert IEC 60559-specified + behavior, and others that do not. + +
Contents +
+ Floating-point arithmetic operations and external function calls may entail side effects + which optimization shall honor, at least where the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is + ''on''. The flags and modes in the floating-point environment may be regarded as global + variables; floating-point operations (+, *, etc.) implicitly read the modes and write the + flags. +
+ Concern about side effects may inhibit code motion and removal of seemingly useless + code. For example, in +
+ #include <fenv.h> + #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON + void f(double x) + { + /* ... */ + for (i = 0; i < n; i++) x + 1; + /* ... */ + } ++ x + 1 might raise floating-point exceptions, so cannot be removed. And since the loop + body might not execute (maybe 0 >= n), x + 1 cannot be moved out of the loop. (Of + course these optimizations are valid if the implementation can rule out the nettlesome + cases.) +
+ This specification does not require support for trap handlers that maintain information + about the order or count of floating-point exceptions. Therefore, between function calls, + floating-point exceptions need not be precise: the actual order and number of occurrences + of floating-point exceptions (> 1) may vary from what the source code expresses. Thus, + + the preceding loop could be treated as +
+ if (0 < n) x + 1; ++ +
Contents +
+ x/2 <-> x x 0.5 Although similar transformations involving inexact constants +
+ generally do not yield numerically equivalent expressions, if the + constants are exact then such transformations can be made on + IEC 60559 machines and others that round perfectly. ++ 1 x x and x/1 -> x The expressions 1 x x, x/1, and x are equivalent (on IEC 60559 +
+ machines, among others).355) ++ x/x -> 1.0 The expressions x/x and 1.0 are not equivalent if x can be zero, +
+ infinite, or NaN. ++ x - y <-> x + (-y) The expressions x - y, x + (-y), and (-y) + x are equivalent (on +
+ IEC 60559 machines, among others). ++ x - y <-> -(y - x) The expressions x - y and -(y - x) are not equivalent because 1 - 1 +
+ is +0 but -(1 - 1) is -0 (in the default rounding direction).356) ++ x - x -> 0.0 The expressions x - x and 0.0 are not equivalent if x is a NaN or +
+ infinite. ++ 0 x x -> 0.0 The expressions 0 x x and 0.0 are not equivalent if x is a NaN, +
+ infinite, or -0. ++ x+0-> x The expressions x + 0 and x are not equivalent if x is -0, because +
+ (-0) + (+0) yields +0 (in the default rounding direction), not -0. ++ x-0-> x (+0) - (+0) yields -0 when rounding is downward (toward -(inf)), but +
+ +0 otherwise, and (-0) - (+0) always yields -0; so, if the state of the + FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''off'', promising default rounding, then + the implementation can replace x - 0 by x, even if x might be zero. ++ -x <-> 0 - x The expressions -x and 0 - x are not equivalent if x is +0, because +
+ -(+0) yields -0, but 0 - (+0) yields +0 (unless rounding is + downward). ++ + + +
Footnotes +
355) Strict support for signaling NaNs -- not required by this specification -- would invalidate these and + other transformations that remove arithmetic operators. + +
356) IEC 60559 prescribes a signed zero to preserve mathematical identities across certain discontinuities.
+ Examples include:
+
+
+ 1/(1/ (+-) (inf)) is (+-) (inf)
+
+ and
+
+
+ conj(csqrt(z)) is csqrt(conj(z)),
+
+ for complex z.

Contents +
+ x != x -> false The expression x != x is true if x is a NaN. + x = x -> true The expression x = x is false if x is a NaN. + x < y -> isless(x,y) (and similarly for <=, >, >=) Though numerically equal, these +
+ expressions are not equivalent because of side effects when x or y is a + NaN and the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on''. This + transformation, which would be desirable if extra code were required + to cause the ''invalid'' floating-point exception for unordered cases, + could be performed provided the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma + is ''off''. ++ The sense of relational operators shall be maintained. This includes handling unordered + cases as expressed by the source code. +
+ EXAMPLE +
+ // calls g and raises ''invalid'' if a and b are unordered + if (a < b) + f(); + else + g(); ++ is not equivalent to +
+ // calls f and raises ''invalid'' if a and b are unordered + if (a >= b) + g(); + else + f(); ++ nor to +
+ // calls f without raising ''invalid'' if a and b are unordered + if (isgreaterequal(a,b)) + g(); + else + f(); ++ nor, unless the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''off'', to +
+ // calls g without raising ''invalid'' if a and b are unordered + if (isless(a,b)) + f(); + else + g(); ++ but is equivalent to + +
+ if (!(a < b)) + g(); + else + f(); ++ + +
Contents +
+ The implementation shall honor floating-point exceptions raised by execution-time + constant arithmetic wherever the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on''. (See F.8.4 + and F.8.5.) An operation on constants that raises no floating-point exception can be + folded during translation, except, if the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on'', a + further check is required to assure that changing the rounding direction to downward does + not alter the sign of the result,357) and implementations that support dynamic rounding + precision modes shall assure further that the result of the operation raises no floating- + point exception when converted to the semantic type of the operation. + +

+ The ''underflow'' floating-point exception is raised whenever a result is tiny (essentially + subnormal or zero) and suffers loss of accuracy.358) + + + +
+ Whether or when library functions raise the ''inexact'' floating-point exception is + unspecified, unless explicitly specified otherwise. +
+ Whether or when library functions raise an undeserved ''underflow'' floating-point + exception is unspecified.359) Otherwise, as implied by F.8.6, the <math.h> functions do + not raise spurious floating-point exceptions (detectable by the user), other than the + ''inexact'' floating-point exception. +
+ Whether the functions honor the rounding direction mode is implementation-defined, + unless explicitly specified otherwise. +
+ Functions with a NaN argument return a NaN result and raise no floating-point exception, + except where stated otherwise. +
+ The specifications in the following subclauses append to the definitions in <math.h>. + For families of functions, the specifications apply to all of the functions even though only + the principal function is shown. Unless otherwise specified, where the symbol ''(+-)'' + occurs in both an argument and the result, the result has the same sign as the argument. +
Recommended practice +

Contents +
+ There is a new keyword _Imaginary, which is used to specify imaginary types. It is + used as a type specifier within declaration specifiers in the same way as _Complex is + (thus, _Imaginary float is a valid type name). +
+ There are three imaginary types, designated as float _Imaginary, double + _Imaginary, and long double _Imaginary. The imaginary types (along with + the real floating and complex types) are floating types. +
+ For imaginary types, the corresponding real type is given by deleting the keyword + _Imaginary from the type name. +
+ Each imaginary type has the same representation and alignment requirements as the + corresponding real type. The value of an object of imaginary type is the value of the real + representation times the imaginary unit. +
+ The imaginary type domain comprises the imaginary types. + +
Contents +
+ A complex or imaginary value with at least one infinite part is regarded as an infinity + (even if its other part is a NaN). A complex or imaginary value is a finite number if each + of its parts is a finite number (neither infinite nor NaN). A complex or imaginary value is + a zero if each of its parts is a zero. + + + + + + +

Contents +
+ When a value of imaginary type is converted to a complex type, the real part of the + complex result value is a positive zero and the imaginary part of the complex result value + is determined by the conversion rules for the corresponding real types. +
+ When a value of complex type is converted to an imaginary type, the real part of the + complex value is discarded and the value of the imaginary part is converted according to + the conversion rules for the corresponding real types. + +
Contents +
+ The following subclauses supplement 6.5 in order to specify the type of the result for an + operation with an imaginary operand. +
+ For most operand types, the value of the result of a binary operator with an imaginary or + complex operand is completely determined, with reference to real arithmetic, by the usual + mathematical formula. For some operand types, the usual mathematical formula is + problematic because of its treatment of infinities and because of undue overflow or + underflow; in these cases the result satisfies certain properties (specified in G.5.1), but is + not completely determined. + + + + + + +
Contents +
Semantics +
+ If one operand has real type and the other operand has imaginary type, then the result has + imaginary type. If both operands have imaginary type, then the result has real type. (If + either operand has complex type, then the result has complex type.) +
+ If the operands are not both complex, then the result and floating-point exception + behavior of the * operator is defined by the usual mathematical formula: +
+ * u iv u + iv ++ +
+ x xu i(xv) (xu) + i(xv) ++ +
+ iy i(yu) -yv (-yv) + i(yu) ++ +
+ x + iy (xu) + i(yu) (-yv) + i(xv) ++
+ If the second operand is not complex, then the result and floating-point exception + behavior of the / operator is defined by the usual mathematical formula: +
+ / u iv ++ +
+ x x/u i(-x/v) ++ +
+ iy i(y/u) y/v ++ +
+ x + iy (x/u) + i(y/u) (y/v) + i(-x/v) ++
+ The * and / operators satisfy the following infinity properties for all real, imaginary, and + complex operands:364) +
+ If both operands of the * operator are complex or if the second operand of the / operator + is complex, the operator raises floating-point exceptions if appropriate for the calculation + of the parts of the result, and may raise spurious floating-point exceptions. +
+ EXAMPLE 1 Multiplication of double _Complex operands could be implemented as follows. Note + that the imaginary unit I has imaginary type (see G.6). + +
+ #include <math.h> + #include <complex.h> + /* Multiply z * w ... */ + double complex _Cmultd(double complex z, double complex w) + { + #pragma STDC FP_CONTRACT OFF + double a, b, c, d, ac, bd, ad, bc, x, y; + a = creal(z); b = cimag(z); + c = creal(w); d = cimag(w); + ac = a * c; bd = b * d; + ad = a * d; bc = b * c; + x = ac - bd; y = ad + bc; + if (isnan(x) && isnan(y)) { + /* Recover infinities that computed as NaN+iNaN ... */ + int recalc = 0; + if ( isinf(a) || isinf(b) ) { // z is infinite + /* "Box" the infinity and change NaNs in the other factor to 0 */ + a = copysign(isinf(a) ? 1.0 : 0.0, a); + b = copysign(isinf(b) ? 1.0 : 0.0, b); + if (isnan(c)) c = copysign(0.0, c); + if (isnan(d)) d = copysign(0.0, d); + recalc = 1; + } + if ( isinf(c) || isinf(d) ) { // w is infinite + /* "Box" the infinity and change NaNs in the other factor to 0 */ + c = copysign(isinf(c) ? 1.0 : 0.0, c); + d = copysign(isinf(d) ? 1.0 : 0.0, d); + if (isnan(a)) a = copysign(0.0, a); + if (isnan(b)) b = copysign(0.0, b); + recalc = 1; + } + if (!recalc && (isinf(ac) || isinf(bd) || + isinf(ad) || isinf(bc))) { + /* Recover infinities from overflow by changing NaNs to 0 ... */ + if (isnan(a)) a = copysign(0.0, a); + if (isnan(b)) b = copysign(0.0, b); + if (isnan(c)) c = copysign(0.0, c); + if (isnan(d)) d = copysign(0.0, d); + recalc = 1; + } + if (recalc) { + x = INFINITY * ( a * c - b * d ); + y = INFINITY * ( a * d + b * c ); + } + } + return x + I * y; + } ++
+ This implementation achieves the required treatment of infinities at the cost of only one isnan test in + ordinary (finite) cases. It is less than ideal in that undue overflow and underflow may occur. + +
+ EXAMPLE 2 Division of two double _Complex operands could be implemented as follows. + +
+ #include <math.h> + #include <complex.h> + /* Divide z / w ... */ + double complex _Cdivd(double complex z, double complex w) + { + #pragma STDC FP_CONTRACT OFF + double a, b, c, d, logbw, denom, x, y; + int ilogbw = 0; + a = creal(z); b = cimag(z); + c = creal(w); d = cimag(w); + logbw = logb(fmax(fabs(c), fabs(d))); + if (logbw == INFINITY) { + ilogbw = (int)logbw; + c = scalbn(c, -ilogbw); d = scalbn(d, -ilogbw); + } + denom = c * c + d * d; + x = scalbn((a * c + b * d) / denom, -ilogbw); + y = scalbn((b * c - a * d) / denom, -ilogbw); + /* Recover infinities and zeros that computed as NaN+iNaN; */ + /* the only cases are nonzero/zero, infinite/finite, and finite/infinite, ... */ + if (isnan(x) && isnan(y)) { + if ((denom == 0.0) && + (!isnan(a) || !isnan(b))) { + x = copysign(INFINITY, c) * a; + y = copysign(INFINITY, c) * b; + } + else if ((isinf(a) || isinf(b)) && + isfinite(c) && isfinite(d)) { + a = copysign(isinf(a) ? 1.0 : 0.0, a); + b = copysign(isinf(b) ? 1.0 : 0.0, b); + x = INFINITY * ( a * c + b * d ); + y = INFINITY * ( b * c - a * d ); + } + else if (isinf(logbw) && + isfinite(a) && isfinite(b)) { + c = copysign(isinf(c) ? 1.0 : 0.0, c); + d = copysign(isinf(d) ? 1.0 : 0.0, d); + x = 0.0 * ( a * c + b * d ); + y = 0.0 * ( b * c - a * d ); + } + } + return x + I * y; + } ++
+ Scaling the denominator alleviates the main overflow and underflow problem, which is more serious than + for multiplication. In the spirit of the multiplication example above, this code does not defend against + overflow and underflow in the calculation of the numerator. Scaling with the scalbn function, instead of + with division, provides better roundoff characteristics. + + +

+ This subclause contains specifications for the <complex.h> functions that are + particularly suited to IEC 60559 implementations. For families of functions, the + specifications apply to all of the functions even though only the principal function is + + shown. Unless otherwise specified, where the symbol ''(+-)'' occurs in both an argument + and the result, the result has the same sign as the argument. +
+ The functions are continuous onto both sides of their branch cuts, taking into account the + sign of zero. For example, csqrt(-2 (+-) i0) = (+-)i(sqrt)2. - +
+ Since complex and imaginary values are composed of real values, each function may be + regarded as computing real values from real values. Except as noted, the functions treat + real infinities, NaNs, signed zeros, subnormals, and the floating-point exception flags in a + manner consistent with the specifications for real functions in F.10.365) +
+ The functions cimag, conj, cproj, and creal are fully specified for all + implementations, including IEC 60559 ones, in 7.3.9. These functions raise no floating- + point exceptions. +
+ Each of the functions cabs and carg is specified by a formula in terms of a real + function (whose special cases are covered in annex F): +
+ cabs(x + iy) = hypot(x, y) + carg(x + iy) = atan2(y, x) ++
+ Each of the functions casin, catan, ccos, csin, and ctan is specified implicitly by + a formula in terms of other complex functions (whose special cases are specified below): +

+ For the other functions, the following subclauses specify behavior for special cases, + including treatment of the ''invalid'' and ''divide-by-zero'' floating-point exceptions. For + families of functions, the specifications apply to all of the functions even though only the + principal function is shown.

+ (informative) + Language independent arithmetic ++ +
Contents +
+ This annex documents the extent to which the C language supports the ISO/IEC 10967-1 + standard for language-independent arithmetic (LIA-1). LIA-1 is more general than + IEC 60559 (annex F) in that it covers integer and diverse floating-point arithmetics. + +
Contents +
+ The relevant C arithmetic types meet the requirements of LIA-1 types if an + implementation adds notification of exceptional arithmetic operations and meets the 1 + unit in the last place (ULP) accuracy requirement (LIA-1 subclause 5.2.8). + +
Contents +
+ The LIA-1 data type Boolean is implemented by the C data type bool with values of + true and false, all from <stdbool.h>. + +
Contents +
+ The signed C integer types int, long int, long long int, and the corresponding + unsigned types are compatible with LIA-1. If an implementation adds support for the + LIA-1 exceptional values ''integer_overflow'' and ''undefined'', then those types are + LIA-1 conformant types. C's unsigned integer types are ''modulo'' in the LIA-1 sense + in that overflows or out-of-bounds results silently wrap. An implementation that defines + signed integer types as also being modulo need not detect integer overflow, in which case, + only integer divide-by-zero need be detected. +
+ The parameters for the integer data types can be accessed by the following: + maxint INT_MAX, LONG_MAX, LLONG_MAX, UINT_MAX, ULONG_MAX, +
+ ULLONG_MAX ++ minint INT_MIN, LONG_MIN, LLONG_MIN +
+ The parameter ''bounded'' is always true, and is not provided. The parameter ''minint'' + is always 0 for the unsigned types, and is not provided for those types. + + +
Contents +
+ The integer operations on integer types are the following: + addI x + y + subI x - y + mulI x * y + divI, divtI x / y + remI, remtI x % y + negI -x + absI abs(x), labs(x), llabs(x) + eqI x == y + neqI x != y + lssI x < y + leqI x <= y + gtrI x > y + geqI x >= y + where x and y are expressions of the same integer type. + +
Contents +
+ The C floating-point types float, double, and long double are compatible with + LIA-1. If an implementation adds support for the LIA-1 exceptional values + ''underflow'', ''floating_overflow'', and ''"undefined'', then those types are conformant + with LIA-1. An implementation that uses IEC 60559 floating-point formats and + operations (see annex F) along with IEC 60559 status flags and traps has LIA-1 + conformant types. + +
Contents +
+ The parameters for a floating point data type can be accessed by the following: + r FLT_RADIX + p FLT_MANT_DIG, DBL_MANT_DIG, LDBL_MANT_DIG + emax FLT_MAX_EXP, DBL_MAX_EXP, LDBL_MAX_EXP + emin FLT_MIN_EXP, DBL_MIN_EXP, LDBL_MIN_EXP +

Contents +
+ The C Standard requires all floating types to use the same radix and rounding style, so + that only one identifier for each is provided to map to LIA-1. +
+ The FLT_ROUNDS parameter can be used to indicate the LIA-1 rounding styles: + truncate FLT_ROUNDS == 0 + + nearest FLT_ROUNDS == 1 + other FLT_ROUNDS != 0 && FLT_ROUNDS != 1 + provided that an implementation extends FLT_ROUNDS to cover the rounding style used + in all relevant LIA-1 operations, not just addition as in C. + +
Contents +
+ The LIA-1 type conversions are the following type casts: + cvtI' -> I (int)i, (long int)i, (long long int)i, +
+ (unsigned int)i, (unsigned long int)i, + (unsigned long long int)i ++ cvtF -> I (int)x, (long int)x, (long long int)x, +
+ (unsigned int)x, (unsigned long int)x, + (unsigned long long int)x ++ cvtI -> F (float)i, (double)i, (long double)i + cvtF' -> F (float)x, (double)x, (long double)x +
+ In the above conversions from floating to integer, the use of (cast)x can be replaced with + (cast)round(x), (cast)rint(x), (cast)nearbyint(x), (cast)trunc(x), + (cast)ceil(x), or (cast)floor(x). In addition, C's floating-point to integer + conversion functions, lrint(), llrint(), lround(), and llround(), can be + used. They all meet LIA-1's requirements on floating to integer rounding for in-range + values. For out-of-range values, the conversions shall silently wrap for the modulo types. +
+ The fmod() function is useful for doing silent wrapping to unsigned integer types, e.g., + fmod( fabs(rint(x)), 65536.0 ) or (0.0 <= (y = fmod( rint(x), + 65536.0 )) ? y : 65536.0 + y) will compute an integer value in the range 0.0 + to 65535.0 which can then be cast to unsigned short int. But, the + remainder() function is not useful for doing silent wrapping to signed integer types, + e.g., remainder( rint(x), 65536.0 ) will compute an integer value in the + range -32767.0 to +32768.0 which is not, in general, in the range of signed short + int. +
+ C's conversions (casts) from floating-point to floating-point can meet LIA-1 + requirements if an implementation uses round-to-nearest (IEC 60559 default). +

+ Notification is the process by which a user or program is informed that an exceptional + arithmetic operation has occurred. C's operations are compatible with LIA-1 in that C + allows an implementation to cause a notification to occur when any arithmetic operation + returns an exceptional value as defined in LIA-1 clause 5. + +
Contents +
+ LIA-1 requires at least the following two alternatives for handling of notifications: + setting indicators or trap-and-terminate. LIA-1 allows a third alternative: trap-and- + resume. +
+ An implementation need only support a given notification alternative for the entire + program. An implementation may support the ability to switch between notification + alternatives during execution, but is not required to do so. An implementation can + provide separate selection for each kind of notification, but this is not required. +
+ C allows an implementation to provide notification. C's SIGFPE (for traps) and + FE_INVALID, FE_DIVBYZERO, FE_OVERFLOW, FE_UNDERFLOW (for indicators) + can provide LIA-1 notification. +
+ C's signal handlers are compatible with LIA-1. Default handling of SIGFPE can + provide trap-and-terminate behavior, except for those LIA-1 operations implemented by + math library function calls. User-provided signal handlers for SIGFPE allow for trap- + and-resume behavior with the same constraint. + +
Contents +
+ C's <fenv.h> status flags are compatible with the LIA-1 indicators. +
+ The following mapping is for floating-point types: + undefined FE_INVALID, FE_DIVBYZERO + floating_overflow FE_OVERFLOW + underflow FE_UNDERFLOW +
+ The floating-point indicator interrogation and manipulation operations are: + set_indicators feraiseexcept(i) + clear_indicators feclearexcept(i) + test_indicators fetestexcept(i) + current_indicators fetestexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) + where i is an expression of type int representing a subset of the LIA-1 indicators. +
+ C allows an implementation to provide the following LIA-1 required behavior: at + program termination if any indicator is set the implementation shall send an unambiguous + + and ''hard to ignore'' message (see LIA-1 subclause 6.1.2) +
+ LIA-1 does not make the distinction between floating-point and integer for ''undefined''. + This documentation makes that distinction because <fenv.h> covers only the floating- + point indicators. + +
Contents +
+ C is compatible with LIA-1's trap requirements for arithmetic operations, but not for + math library functions (which are not permitted to invoke a user's signal handler for + SIGFPE). An implementation can provide an alternative of notification through + termination with a ''hard-to-ignore'' message (see LIA-1 subclause 6.1.3). +
+ LIA-1 does not require that traps be precise. +
+ C does require that SIGFPE be the signal corresponding to LIA-1 arithmetic exceptions, + if there is any signal raised for them. +
+ C supports signal handlers for SIGFPE and allows trapping of LIA-1 arithmetic + exceptions. When LIA-1 arithmetic exceptions do trap, C's signal-handler mechanism + allows trap-and-terminate (either default implementation behavior or user replacement for + it) or trap-and-resume, at the programmer's option. + + +

Not only + do these functions not check that the arrays are big enough, they frequently lack the + information needed to perform such checks. While it is possible to write safe, robust, and + error-free code using the existing library, the library tends to promote programming styles + that lead to mysterious failures if a result is too big for the provided array. +
+ A common programming style is to declare character arrays large enough to handle most + practical cases. However, if these arrays are not large enough to handle the resulting + strings, data can be written past the end of the array overwriting other data and program + structures. The program never gets any indication that a problem exists, and so never has + a chance to recover or to fail gracefully. +
+ Worse, this style of programming has compromised the security of computers and + networks. Buffer overflows can often be exploited to run arbitrary code with the + permissions of the vulnerable (defective) program. +
+ If the programmer writes runtime checks to verify lengths before calling library + functions, then those runtime checks frequently duplicate work done inside the library + functions, which discover string lengths as a side effect of doing their job. +
+ This annex provides alternative library functions that promote safer, more secure + programming. The alternative functions verify that output buffers are large enough for + the intended result and return a failure indicator if they are not. Data is never written past + the end of an array. All string results are null terminated. +
+ This annex also addresses another problem that complicates writing robust code: + functions that are not reentrant because they return pointers to static objects owned by the + function. Such functions can be troublesome since a previously returned result can + change if the function is called again, perhaps by another thread. + + +

+ Most functions in this annex include as part of their specification a list of runtime- + constraints. These runtime-constraints are requirements on the program using the + library.370) +
+ Implementations shall verify that the runtime-constraints for a function are not violated + by the program. If a runtime-constraint is violated, the implementation shall call the + currently registered runtime-constraint handler (see set_constraint_handler_s + in <stdlib.h>). Multiple runtime-constraint violations in the same call to a library + function result in only one call to the runtime-constraint handler. It is unspecified which + one of the multiple runtime-constraint violations cause the handler to be called. +
+ If the runtime-constraints section for a function states an action to be performed when a + runtime-constraint violation occurs, the function shall perform the action before calling + the runtime-constraint handler. If the runtime-constraints section lists actions that are + prohibited when a runtime-constraint violation occurs, then such actions are prohibited to + the function both before calling the handler and after the handler returns. +

Recommended practice +
+ Extremely large object sizes are frequently a sign that an object's size was calculated + incorrectly. For example, negative numbers appear as very large positive numbers when + converted to an unsigned type like size_t. Also, some implementations do not support + objects as large as the maximum value that can be represented by type size_t. +
+ For those reasons, it is sometimes beneficial to restrict the range of object sizes to detect + programming errors. For implementations targeting machines with large address spaces, + it is recommended that RSIZE_MAX be defined as the smaller of the size of the largest + object supported or (SIZE_MAX >> 1), even if this limit is smaller than the size of + some legitimate, but very large, objects. Implementations targeting machines with small + address spaces may wish to define RSIZE_MAX as SIZE_MAX, which means that there + + + is no object size that is considered a runtime-constraint violation. + +

+ streamptr shall not be a null pointer. +
+ If there is a runtime-constraint violation, tmpfile_s does not attempt to create a file. +
Description +
+ The tmpfile_s function creates a temporary binary file that is different from any other + existing file and that will automatically be removed when it is closed or at program + termination. If the program terminates abnormally, whether an open temporary file is + removed is implementation-defined. The file is opened for update with "wb+" mode + with the meaning that mode has in the fopen_s function (including the mode's effect + on exclusive access and file permissions). + +
+ If the file was created successfully, then the pointer to FILE pointed to by streamptr + will be set to the pointer to the object controlling the opened file. Otherwise, the pointer + to FILE pointed to by streamptr will be set to a null pointer. +
Recommended practice + It should be possible to open at least TMP_MAX_S temporary files during the lifetime of + the program (this limit may be shared with tmpnam_s) and there should be no limit on + the number simultaneously open other than this limit and any limit on the number of open + files (FOPEN_MAX). +
Returns +
+ The tmpfile_s function returns zero if it created the file. If it did not create the file or + there was a runtime-constraint violation, tmpfile_s returns a nonzero value. + +

Description +
+ The tmpnam_s function generates a string that is a valid file name and that is not the + same as the name of an existing file.374) The function is potentially capable of generating + TMP_MAX_S different strings, but any or all of them may already be in use by existing + files and thus not be suitable return values. The lengths of these strings shall be less than + the value of the L_tmpnam_s macro. +
+ The tmpnam_s function generates a different string each time it is called. +
+ It is assumed that s points to an array of at least maxsize characters. This array will be + set to generated string, as specified below. + + + + +
+ The implementation shall behave as if no library function except tmpnam calls the + tmpnam_s function.375) +
Recommended practice +
+ After a program obtains a file name using the tmpnam_s function and before the + program creates a file with that name, the possibility exists that someone else may create + a file with that same name. To avoid this race condition, the tmpfile_s function + should be used instead of tmpnam_s when possible. One situation that requires the use + of the tmpnam_s function is when the program needs to create a temporary directory + rather than a temporary file. +
Returns +
+ If no suitable string can be generated, or if there is a runtime-constraint violation, the + tmpnam_s function writes a null character to s[0] (only if s is not null and maxsize + is greater than zero) and returns a nonzero value. +
+ Otherwise, the tmpnam_s function writes the string in the array pointed to by s and + returns zero. +
Environmental limits +
+ The value of the macro TMP_MAX_S shall be at least 25. + +
Footnotes +
374) Files created using strings generated by the tmpnam_s function are temporary only in the sense that + their names should not collide with those generated by conventional naming rules for the + implementation. It is still necessary to use the remove function to remove such files when their use + is ended, and before program termination. Implementations should take care in choosing the patterns + used for names returned by tmpnam_s. For example, making a thread id part of the names avoids the + race condition and possible conflict when multiple programs run simultaneously by the same user + generate the same temporary file names. + +
375) An implementation may have tmpnam call tmpnam_s (perhaps so there is only one naming + convention for temporary files), but this is not required. + + +

Description +
+ The fscanf_s function is equivalent to fscanf except that the c, s, and [ conversion + specifiers apply to a pair of arguments (unless assignment suppression is indicated by a + *). The first of these arguments is the same as for fscanf. That argument is + immediately followed in the argument list by the second argument, which has type + rsize_t and gives the number of elements in the array pointed to by the first argument + of the pair. If the first argument points to a scalar object, it is considered to be an array of + one element.380) +
+ A matching failure occurs if the number of elements in a receiving object is insufficient to + hold the converted input (including any trailing null character). +
Returns +
+ The fscanf_s function returns the value of the macro EOF if an input failure occurs + before any conversion or if there is a runtime-constraint violation. Otherwise, the + + + fscanf_s function returns the number of input items assigned, which can be fewer than + provided for, or even zero, in the event of an early matching failure. +

+ #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1 + #include <stdio.h> + /* ... */ + int n; char s[5]; + n = fscanf_s(stdin, "%s", s, sizeof s); ++ with the input line: +

380) If the format is known at translation time, an implementation may issue a diagnostic for any argument + used to store the result from a c, s, or [ conversion specifier if that argument is not followed by an + argument of a type compatible with rsize_t. A limited amount of checking may be done if even if + the format is not known at translation time. For example, an implementation may issue a diagnostic + for each argument after format that has of type pointer to one of char, signed char, + unsigned char, or void that is not followed by an argument of a type compatible with + rsize_t. The diagnostic could warn that unless the pointer is being used with a conversion specifier + using the hh length modifier, a length argument must follow the pointer argument. Another useful + diagnostic could flag any non-pointer argument following format that did not have a type + compatible with rsize_t. + + +

+ If there is a runtime-constraint violation, the strtok_s function does not indirect + through the s1 or s2 pointers, and does not store a value in the object pointed to by ptr. +
Description +
+ A sequence of calls to the strtok_s function breaks the string pointed to by s1 into a + sequence of tokens, each of which is delimited by a character from the string pointed to + by s2. The fourth argument points to a caller-provided char pointer into which the + strtok_s function stores information necessary for it to continue scanning the same + string. +
+ The first call in a sequence has a non-null first argument and s1max points to an object + whose value is the number of elements in the character array pointed to by the first + argument. The first call stores an initial value in the object pointed to by ptr and + updates the value pointed to by s1max to reflect the number of elements that remain in + relation to ptr. Subsequent calls in the sequence have a null first argument and the + objects pointed to by s1max and ptr are required to have the values stored by the + previous call in the sequence, which are then updated. The separator string pointed to by + s2 may be different from call to call. +
+ The first call in the sequence searches the string pointed to by s1 for the first character + that is not contained in the current separator string pointed to by s2. If no such character + is found, then there are no tokens in the string pointed to by s1 and the strtok_s + function returns a null pointer. If such a character is found, it is the start of the first token. + +
+ The strtok_s function then searches from there for the first character in s1 that is + contained in the current separator string. If no such character is found, the current token + extends to the end of the string pointed to by s1, and subsequent searches in the same + string for a token return a null pointer. If such a character is found, it is overwritten by a + null character, which terminates the current token. +
+ In all cases, the strtok_s function stores sufficient information in the pointer pointed + to by ptr so that subsequent calls, with a null pointer for s1 and the unmodified pointer + value for ptr, shall start searching just past the element overwritten by a null character + (if any). +
Returns +
+ The strtok_s function returns a pointer to the first character of a token, or a null + pointer if there is no token or there is a runtime-constraint violation. +

+ None of s1max, s2, or ptr shall be a null pointer. If s1 is a null pointer, then *ptr + shall not be a null pointer. The value of *s1max shall not be greater than RSIZE_MAX. + The end of the token found shall occur within the first *s1max wide characters of s1 for + the first call, and shall occur within the first *s1max wide characters of where searching + resumes on subsequent calls. +
+ If there is a runtime-constraint violation, the wcstok_s function does not indirect + through the s1 or s2 pointers, and does not store a value in the object pointed to by ptr. +
Description +
+ A sequence of calls to the wcstok_s function breaks the wide string pointed to by s1 + into a sequence of tokens, each of which is delimited by a wide character from the wide + string pointed to by s2. The fourth argument points to a caller-provided wchar_t + pointer into which the wcstok_s function stores information necessary for it to + continue scanning the same wide string. +
+ The first call in a sequence has a non-null first argument and s1max points to an object + whose value is the number of elements in the wide character array pointed to by the first + argument. The first call stores an initial value in the object pointed to by ptr and + updates the value pointed to by s1max to reflect the number of elements that remain in + relation to ptr. Subsequent calls in the sequence have a null first argument and the + objects pointed to by s1max and ptr are required to have the values stored by the + previous call in the sequence, which are then updated. The separator wide string pointed + to by s2 may be different from call to call. +
+ The first call in the sequence searches the wide string pointed to by s1 for the first wide + character that is not contained in the current separator wide string pointed to by s2. If no + such wide character is found, then there are no tokens in the wide string pointed to by s1 + and the wcstok_s function returns a null pointer. If such a wide character is found, it is + the start of the first token. + +
+ The wcstok_s function then searches from there for the first wide character in s1 that + is contained in the current separator wide string. If no such wide character is found, the + current token extends to the end of the wide string pointed to by s1, and subsequent + searches in the same wide string for a token return a null pointer. If such a wide character + is found, it is overwritten by a null wide character, which terminates the current token. +
+ In all cases, the wcstok_s function stores sufficient information in the pointer pointed + to by ptr so that subsequent calls, with a null pointer for s1 and the unmodified pointer + value for ptr, shall start searching just past the element overwritten by a null wide + character (if any). +
Returns +
+ The wcstok_s function returns a pointer to the first wide character of a token, or a null + pointer if there is no token or there is a runtime-constraint violation. +

Description +
+ The wcsnlen_s function computes the length of the wide string pointed to by s. +
Returns +
+ If s is a null pointer,438) then the wcsnlen_s function returns zero. +
+ Otherwise, the wcsnlen_s function returns the number of wide characters that precede + the terminating null wide character. If there is no null wide character in the first + maxsize wide characters of s then wcsnlen_s returns maxsize. At most the first + + maxsize wide characters of s shall be accessed by wcsnlen_s. + +
Footnotes +
438) Note that the wcsnlen_s function has no runtime-constraints. This lack of runtime-constraints + along with the values returned for a null pointer or an unterminated wide string argument make + wcsnlen_s useful in algorithms that gracefully handle such exceptional data. + + +

+
+ #include <wchar.h> + errno_t wcrtomb_s(size_t * restrict retval, + char * restrict s, rsize_t smax, + wchar_t wc, mbstate_t * restrict ps); ++ Runtime-constraints +
+ Neither retval nor ps shall be a null pointer. If s is not a null pointer, then smax + shall not equal zero and shall not be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If s is not a null pointer, + then smax shall be not be less than the number of bytes to be stored in the array pointed + to by s. If s is a null pointer, then smax shall equal zero. +
+ If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then wcrtomb_s does the following. If s is + not a null pointer and smax is greater than zero and not greater than RSIZE_MAX, then + wcrtomb_s sets s[0] to the null character. If retval is not a null pointer, then + wcrtomb_s sets *retval to (size_t)(-1). +
Description +
+ If s is a null pointer, the wcrtomb_s function is equivalent to the call +
+ wcrtomb_s(&retval, buf, sizeof buf, L'\0', ps) ++ where retval and buf are internal variables of the appropriate types, and the size of + buf is greater than MB_CUR_MAX. +
+ If s is not a null pointer, the wcrtomb_s function determines the number of bytes + needed to represent the multibyte character that corresponds to the wide character given + by wc (including any shift sequences), and stores the multibyte character representation + in the array whose first element is pointed to by s. At most MB_CUR_MAX bytes are + stored. If wc is a null wide character, a null byte is stored, preceded by any shift + sequence needed to restore the initial shift state; the resulting state described is the initial + conversion state. + + +
+ If wc does not correspond to a valid multibyte character, an encoding error occurs: the + wcrtomb_s function stores the value (size_t)(-1) into *retval and the + conversion state is unspecified. Otherwise, the wcrtomb_s function stores into + *retval the number of bytes (including any shift sequences) stored in the array pointed + to by s. +
Returns +
+ The wcrtomb_s function returns zero if no runtime-constraint violation and no + encoding error occurred. Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned. + +

The - IEC 60559 floating-point standard is specifically Binary floating-point arithmetic for - microprocessor systems, second edition (IEC 60559:1989), previously designated - IEC 559:1989 and as IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic - (ANSI/IEEE 754-1985). IEEE Standard for Radix-Independent Floating-Point - Arithmetic (ANSI/IEEE 854-1987) generalizes the binary standard to remove - dependencies on radix and word length. IEC 60559 generally refers to the floating-point - standard, as in IEC 60559 operation, IEC 60559 format, etc. An implementation that - defines __STDC_IEC_559__ shall conform to the specifications in this annex.343) - Where a binding between the C language and IEC 60559 is indicated, the - IEC 60559-specified behavior is adopted by reference, unless stated otherwise. Since - negative and positive infinity are representable in IEC 60559 formats, all real numbers lie - within the range of representable values. - F.2 Types -1 The C floating types match the IEC 60559 formats as follows: - -- The float type matches the IEC 60559 single format. - -- The double type matches the IEC 60559 double format. - -- The long double type matches an IEC 60559 extended format,344) else a - non-IEC 60559 extended format, else the IEC 60559 double format. - Any non-IEC 60559 extended format used for the long double type shall have more - precision than IEC 60559 double and at least the range of IEC 60559 double.345) - - - - - 343) Implementations that do not define __STDC_IEC_559__ are not required to conform to these - specifications. - 344) ''Extended'' is IEC 60559's double-extended data format. Extended refers to both the common 80-bit - and quadruple 128-bit IEC 60559 formats. - 345) A non-IEC 60559 long double type is required to provide infinity and NaNs, as its values include - all double values. - -[page 503] (Contents) - - Recommended practice -2 The long double type should match an IEC 60559 extended format. - F.2.1 Infinities, signed zeros, and NaNs -1 This specification does not define the behavior of signaling NaNs.346) It generally uses - the term NaN to denote quiet NaNs. The NAN and INFINITY macros and the nan - functions in <math.h> provide designations for IEC 60559 NaNs and infinities. - F.3 Operators and functions -1 C operators and functions provide IEC 60559 required and recommended facilities as - listed below. - -- The +, -, *, and / operators provide the IEC 60559 add, subtract, multiply, and - divide operations. - -- The sqrt functions in <math.h> provide the IEC 60559 square root operation. - -- The remainder functions in <math.h> provide the IEC 60559 remainder - operation. The remquo functions in <math.h> provide the same operation but - with additional information. - -- The rint functions in <math.h> provide the IEC 60559 operation that rounds a - floating-point number to an integer value (in the same precision). The nearbyint - functions in <math.h> provide the nearbyinteger function recommended in the - Appendix to ANSI/IEEE 854. - -- The conversions for floating types provide the IEC 60559 conversions between - floating-point precisions. - -- The conversions from integer to floating types provide the IEC 60559 conversions - from integer to floating point. - -- The conversions from floating to integer types provide IEC 60559-like conversions - but always round toward zero. - -- The lrint and llrint functions in <math.h> provide the IEC 60559 - conversions, which honor the directed rounding mode, from floating point to the - long int and long long int integer formats. The lrint and llrint - functions can be used to implement IEC 60559 conversions from floating to other - integer formats. - -- The translation time conversion of floating constants and the strtod, strtof, - strtold, fprintf, fscanf, and related library functions in <stdlib.h>, - - - 346) Since NaNs created by IEC 60559 operations are always quiet, quiet NaNs (along with infinities) are - sufficient for closure of the arithmetic. - -[page 504] (Contents) - - <stdio.h>, and <wchar.h> provide IEC 60559 binary-decimal conversions. The - strtold function in <stdlib.h> provides the conv function recommended in the - Appendix to ANSI/IEEE 854. --- The relational and equality operators provide IEC 60559 comparisons. IEC 60559 - identifies a need for additional comparison predicates to facilitate writing code that - accounts for NaNs. The comparison macros (isgreater, isgreaterequal, - isless, islessequal, islessgreater, and isunordered) in <math.h> - supplement the language operators to address this need. The islessgreater and - isunordered macros provide respectively a quiet version of the <> predicate and - the unordered predicate recommended in the Appendix to IEC 60559. --- The feclearexcept, feraiseexcept, and fetestexcept functions in - <fenv.h> provide the facility to test and alter the IEC 60559 floating-point - exception status flags. The fegetexceptflag and fesetexceptflag - functions in <fenv.h> provide the facility to save and restore all five status flags at - one time. These functions are used in conjunction with the type fexcept_t and the - floating-point exception macros (FE_INEXACT, FE_DIVBYZERO, - FE_UNDERFLOW, FE_OVERFLOW, FE_INVALID) also in <fenv.h>. --- The fegetround and fesetround functions in <fenv.h> provide the facility - to select among the IEC 60559 directed rounding modes represented by the rounding - direction macros in <fenv.h> (FE_TONEAREST, FE_UPWARD, FE_DOWNWARD, - FE_TOWARDZERO) and the values 0, 1, 2, and 3 of FLT_ROUNDS are the - IEC 60559 directed rounding modes. --- The fegetenv, feholdexcept, fesetenv, and feupdateenv functions in - <fenv.h> provide a facility to manage the floating-point environment, comprising - the IEC 60559 status flags and control modes. --- The copysign functions in <math.h> provide the copysign function - recommended in the Appendix to IEC 60559. --- The fabs functions in <math.h> provide the abs function recommended in the - Appendix to IEC 60559. --- The unary minus (-) operator provides the unary minus (-) operation recommended - in the Appendix to IEC 60559. --- The scalbn and scalbln functions in <math.h> provide the scalb function - recommended in the Appendix to IEC 60559. --- The logb functions in <math.h> provide the logb function recommended in the - Appendix to IEC 60559, but following the newer specifications in ANSI/IEEE 854. --- The nextafter and nexttoward functions in <math.h> provide the nextafter - function recommended in the Appendix to IEC 60559 (but with a minor change to - -[page 505] (Contents) - - better handle signed zeros). - -- The isfinite macro in <math.h> provides the finite function recommended in - the Appendix to IEC 60559. - -- The isnan macro in <math.h> provides the isnan function recommended in the - Appendix to IEC 60559. - -- The signbit macro and the fpclassify macro in <math.h>, used in - conjunction with the number classification macros (FP_NAN, FP_INFINITE, - FP_NORMAL, FP_SUBNORMAL, FP_ZERO), provide the facility of the class - function recommended in the Appendix to IEC 60559 (except that the classification - macros defined in 7.12.3 do not distinguish signaling from quiet NaNs). - F.4 Floating to integer conversion -1 If the integer type is _Bool, 6.3.1.2 applies and no floating-point exceptions are raised - (even for NaN). Otherwise, if the floating value is infinite or NaN or if the integral part - of the floating value exceeds the range of the integer type, then the ''invalid'' floating- - point exception is raised and the resulting value is unspecified. Otherwise, the resulting - value is determined by 6.3.1.4. Conversion of an integral floating value that does not - exceed the range of the integer type raises no floating-point exceptions; whether - conversion of a non-integral floating value raises the ''inexact'' floating-point exception is - unspecified.347) - F.5 Binary-decimal conversion -1 Conversion from the widest supported IEC 60559 format to decimal with - DECIMAL_DIG digits and back is the identity function.348) -2 Conversions involving IEC 60559 formats follow all pertinent recommended practice. In - particular, conversion between any supported IEC 60559 format and decimal with - DECIMAL_DIG or fewer significant digits is correctly rounded (honoring the current - rounding mode), which assures that conversion from the widest supported IEC 60559 - format to decimal with DECIMAL_DIG digits and back is the identity function. - - - - 347) ANSI/IEEE 854, but not IEC 60559 (ANSI/IEEE 754), directly specifies that floating-to-integer - conversions raise the ''inexact'' floating-point exception for non-integer in-range values. In those - cases where it matters, library functions can be used to effect such conversions with or without raising - the ''inexact'' floating-point exception. See rint, lrint, llrint, and nearbyint in - <math.h>. - 348) If the minimum-width IEC 60559 extended format (64 bits of precision) is supported, - DECIMAL_DIG shall be at least 21. If IEC 60559 double (53 bits of precision) is the widest - IEC 60559 format supported, then DECIMAL_DIG shall be at least 17. (By contrast, LDBL_DIG and - DBL_DIG are 18 and 15, respectively, for these formats.) - -[page 506] (Contents) - -3 Functions such as strtod that convert character sequences to floating types honor the - rounding direction. Hence, if the rounding direction might be upward or downward, the - implementation cannot convert a minus-signed sequence by negating the converted - unsigned sequence. - F.6 The return statement - If the return expression is evaluated in a floating-point format different from the return - type, the expression is converted as if by assignment349) to the return type of the function - and the resulting value is returned to the caller. - F.7 Contracted expressions -1 A contracted expression is correctly rounded (once) and treats infinities, NaNs, signed - zeros, subnormals, and the rounding directions in a manner consistent with the basic - arithmetic operations covered by IEC 60559. - Recommended practice -2 A contracted expression should raise floating-point exceptions in a manner generally - consistent with the basic arithmetic operations. * - F.8 Floating-point environment -1 The floating-point environment defined in <fenv.h> includes the IEC 60559 floating- - point exception status flags and directed-rounding control modes. It includes also - IEC 60559 dynamic rounding precision and trap enablement modes, if the - implementation supports them.350) - F.8.1 Environment management -1 IEC 60559 requires that floating-point operations implicitly raise floating-point exception - status flags, and that rounding control modes can be set explicitly to affect result values of - floating-point operations. When the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma (defined in - <fenv.h>) is ''on'', these changes to the floating-point state are treated as side effects - which respect sequence points.351) - - - - - 349) Assignment removes any extra range and precision. - 350) This specification does not require dynamic rounding precision nor trap enablement modes. - 351) If the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''off'', the implementation is free to assume the floating- - point control modes will be the default ones and the floating-point status flags will not be tested, - which allows certain optimizations (see F.9). - -[page 507] (Contents) - - F.8.2 Translation -1 During translation the IEC 60559 default modes are in effect: - -- The rounding direction mode is rounding to nearest. - -- The rounding precision mode (if supported) is set so that results are not shortened. - -- Trapping or stopping (if supported) is disabled on all floating-point exceptions. - Recommended practice -2 The implementation should produce a diagnostic message for each translation-time - floating-point exception, other than ''inexact'';352) the implementation should then - proceed with the translation of the program. - F.8.3 Execution -1 At program startup the floating-point environment is initialized as prescribed by - IEC 60559: - -- All floating-point exception status flags are cleared. - -- The rounding direction mode is rounding to nearest. - -- The dynamic rounding precision mode (if supported) is set so that results are not - shortened. - -- Trapping or stopping (if supported) is disabled on all floating-point exceptions. - F.8.4 Constant expressions -1 An arithmetic constant expression of floating type, other than one in an initializer for an - object that has static or thread storage duration, is evaluated (as if) during execution; thus, - it is affected by any operative floating-point control modes and raises floating-point - exceptions as required by IEC 60559 (provided the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma - is ''on'').353) -2 EXAMPLE - - - - 352) As floating constants are converted to appropriate internal representations at translation time, their - conversion is subject to default rounding modes and raises no execution-time floating-point exceptions - (even where the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on''). Library functions, for example - strtod, provide execution-time conversion of numeric strings. - 353) Where the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on'', results of inexact expressions like 1.0/3.0 - are affected by rounding modes set at execution time, and expressions such as 0.0/0.0 and - 1.0/0.0 generate execution-time floating-point exceptions. The programmer can achieve the - efficiency of translation-time evaluation through static initialization, such as - const static double one_third = 1.0/3.0; - - -[page 508] (Contents) - - #include <fenv.h> - #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON - void f(void) - { - float w[] = { 0.0/0.0 }; // raises an exception - static float x = 0.0/0.0; // does not raise an exception - float y = 0.0/0.0; // raises an exception - double z = 0.0/0.0; // raises an exception - /* ... */ - } -3 For the static initialization, the division is done at translation time, raising no (execution-time) floating- - point exceptions. On the other hand, for the three automatic initializations the invalid division occurs at - execution time. - - F.8.5 Initialization -1 All computation for automatic initialization is done (as if) at execution time; thus, it is - affected by any operative modes and raises floating-point exceptions as required by - IEC 60559 (provided the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on''). All computation - for initialization of objects that have static or thread storage duration is done (as if) at - translation time. -2 EXAMPLE - #include <fenv.h> - #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON - void f(void) - { - float u[] = { 1.1e75 }; // raises exceptions - static float v = 1.1e75; // does not raise exceptions - float w = 1.1e75; // raises exceptions - double x = 1.1e75; // may raise exceptions - float y = 1.1e75f; // may raise exceptions - long double z = 1.1e75; // does not raise exceptions - /* ... */ - } -3 The static initialization of v raises no (execution-time) floating-point exceptions because its computation is - done at translation time. The automatic initialization of u and w require an execution-time conversion to - float of the wider value 1.1e75, which raises floating-point exceptions. The automatic initializations - of x and y entail execution-time conversion; however, in some expression evaluation methods, the - conversions is not to a narrower format, in which case no floating-point exception is raised.354) The - automatic initialization of z entails execution-time conversion, but not to a narrower format, so no floating- - point exception is raised. Note that the conversions of the floating constants 1.1e75 and 1.1e75f to - - - - 354) Use of float_t and double_t variables increases the likelihood of translation-time computation. - For example, the automatic initialization - double_t x = 1.1e75; - could be done at translation time, regardless of the expression evaluation method. - -[page 509] (Contents) - - their internal representations occur at translation time in all cases. - - F.8.6 Changing the environment -1 Operations defined in 6.5 and functions and macros defined for the standard libraries - change floating-point status flags and control modes just as indicated by their - specifications (including conformance to IEC 60559). They do not change flags or modes - (so as to be detectable by the user) in any other cases. -2 If the argument to the feraiseexcept function in <fenv.h> represents IEC 60559 - valid coincident floating-point exceptions for atomic operations (namely ''overflow'' and - ''inexact'', or ''underflow'' and ''inexact''), then ''overflow'' or ''underflow'' is raised - before ''inexact''. - F.9 Optimization -1 This section identifies code transformations that might subvert IEC 60559-specified - behavior, and others that do not. - F.9.1 Global transformations -1 Floating-point arithmetic operations and external function calls may entail side effects - which optimization shall honor, at least where the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is - ''on''. The flags and modes in the floating-point environment may be regarded as global - variables; floating-point operations (+, *, etc.) implicitly read the modes and write the - flags. -2 Concern about side effects may inhibit code motion and removal of seemingly useless - code. For example, in - #include <fenv.h> - #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON - void f(double x) - { - /* ... */ - for (i = 0; i < n; i++) x + 1; - /* ... */ - } - x + 1 might raise floating-point exceptions, so cannot be removed. And since the loop - body might not execute (maybe 0 >= n), x + 1 cannot be moved out of the loop. (Of - course these optimizations are valid if the implementation can rule out the nettlesome - cases.) -3 This specification does not require support for trap handlers that maintain information - about the order or count of floating-point exceptions. Therefore, between function calls, - floating-point exceptions need not be precise: the actual order and number of occurrences - of floating-point exceptions (> 1) may vary from what the source code expresses. Thus, -[page 510] (Contents) - - the preceding loop could be treated as - if (0 < n) x + 1; - F.9.2 Expression transformations -1 x/2 (<->) x x 0.5 Although similar transformations involving inexact constants - generally do not yield numerically equivalent expressions, if the - constants are exact then such transformations can be made on - IEC 60559 machines and others that round perfectly. - 1 x x and x/1 (->) x The expressions 1 x x, x/1, and x are equivalent (on IEC 60559 - machines, among others).355) - x/x (->) 1.0 The expressions x/x and 1.0 are not equivalent if x can be zero, - infinite, or NaN. - x - y (<->) x + (-y) The expressions x - y, x + (-y), and (-y) + x are equivalent (on - IEC 60559 machines, among others). - x - y (<->) -(y - x) The expressions x - y and -(y - x) are not equivalent because 1 - 1 - is +0 but -(1 - 1) is -0 (in the default rounding direction).356) - x - x (->) 0.0 The expressions x - x and 0.0 are not equivalent if x is a NaN or - infinite. - 0 x x (->) 0.0 The expressions 0 x x and 0.0 are not equivalent if x is a NaN, - infinite, or -0. - x+0(->) x The expressions x + 0 and x are not equivalent if x is -0, because - (-0) + (+0) yields +0 (in the default rounding direction), not -0. - x-0(->) x (+0) - (+0) yields -0 when rounding is downward (toward -(inf)), but - +0 otherwise, and (-0) - (+0) always yields -0; so, if the state of the - FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''off'', promising default rounding, then - the implementation can replace x - 0 by x, even if x might be zero. - -x (<->) 0 - x The expressions -x and 0 - x are not equivalent if x is +0, because - -(+0) yields -0, but 0 - (+0) yields +0 (unless rounding is - downward). - - 355) Strict support for signaling NaNs -- not required by this specification -- would invalidate these and - other transformations that remove arithmetic operators. - 356) IEC 60559 prescribes a signed zero to preserve mathematical identities across certain discontinuities. - Examples include: - 1/(1/ (+-) (inf)) is (+-) (inf) - and - conj(csqrt(z)) is csqrt(conj(z)), - for complex z. - -[page 511] (Contents) - - F.9.3 Relational operators -1 x != x (->) false The expression x != x is true if x is a NaN. - x = x (->) true The expression x = x is false if x is a NaN. - x < y (->) isless(x,y) (and similarly for <=, >, >=) Though numerically equal, these - expressions are not equivalent because of side effects when x or y is a - NaN and the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma is ''on''. This - transformation, which would be desirable if extra code were required - to cause the ''invalid'' floating-point exception for unordered cases, - could be performed provided the state of the FENV_ACCESS pragma - is ''off''. - The sense of relational operators shall be maintained.

It is - used as a type specifier within declaration specifiers in the same way as _Complex is - (thus, _Imaginary float is a valid type name). -2 There are three imaginary types, designated as float _Imaginary, double - _Imaginary, and long double _Imaginary. The imaginary types (along with - the real floating and complex types) are floating types. -3 For imaginary types, the corresponding real type is given by deleting the keyword - _Imaginary from the type name. -4 Each imaginary type has the same representation and alignment requirements as the - corresponding real type. The value of an object of imaginary type is the value of the real - representation times the imaginary unit. -5 The imaginary type domain comprises the imaginary types. - G.3 Conventions -1 A complex or imaginary value with at least one infinite part is regarded as an infinity - (even if its other part is a NaN).

LIA-1 is more general than - IEC 60559 (annex F) in that it covers integer and diverse floating-point arithmetics. - H.2 Types -1 The relevant C arithmetic types meet the requirements of LIA-1 types if an - implementation adds notification of exceptional arithmetic operations and meets the 1 - unit in the last place (ULP) accuracy requirement (LIA-1 subclause 5.2.8). - H.2.1 Boolean type -1 The LIA-1 data type Boolean is implemented by the C data type bool with values of - true and false, all from <stdbool.h>. - H.2.2 Integer types -1 The signed C integer types int, long int, long long int, and the corresponding - unsigned types are compatible with LIA-1. If an implementation adds support for the - LIA-1 exceptional values ''integer_overflow'' and ''undefined'', then those types are - LIA-1 conformant types. C's unsigned integer types are ''modulo'' in the LIA-1 sense - in that overflows or out-of-bounds results silently wrap. An implementation that defines - signed integer types as also being modulo need not detect integer overflow, in which case, - only integer divide-by-zero need be detected. -2 The parameters for the integer data types can be accessed by the following: - maxint INT_MAX, LONG_MAX, LLONG_MAX, UINT_MAX, ULONG_MAX, - ULLONG_MAX - minint INT_MIN, LONG_MIN, LLONG_MIN -3 The parameter ''bounded'' is always true, and is not provided. The parameter ''minint'' - is always 0 for the unsigned types, and is not provided for those types. - - - - -[page 542] (Contents) - - H.2.2.1 Integer operations -1 The integer operations on integer types are the following: - addI x + y - subI x - y - mulI x * y - divI, divtI x / y - remI, remtI x % y - negI -x - absI abs(x), labs(x), llabs(x) - eqI x == y - neqI x != y - lssI x < y - leqI x <= y - gtrI x > y - geqI x >= y - where x and y are expressions of the same integer type. - H.2.3 Floating-point types -1 The C floating-point types float, double, and long double are compatible with - LIA-1. If an implementation adds support for the LIA-1 exceptional values - ''underflow'', ''floating_overflow'', and ''"undefined'', then those types are conformant - with LIA-1. An implementation that uses IEC 60559 floating-point formats and - operations (see annex F) along with IEC 60559 status flags and traps has LIA-1 - conformant types. - H.2.3.1 Floating-point parameters -1 The parameters for a floating point data type can be accessed by the following: - r FLT_RADIX - p FLT_MANT_DIG, DBL_MANT_DIG, LDBL_MANT_DIG - emax FLT_MAX_EXP, DBL_MAX_EXP, LDBL_MAX_EXP - emin FLT_MIN_EXP, DBL_MIN_EXP, LDBL_MIN_EXP -2 The derived constants for the floating point types are accessed by the following: - - -[page 543] (Contents) - - fmax FLT_MAX, DBL_MAX, LDBL_MAX - fminN FLT_MIN, DBL_MIN, LDBL_MIN - epsilon FLT_EPSILON, DBL_EPSILON, LDBL_EPSILON - rnd_style FLT_ROUNDS - H.2.3.2 Floating-point operations -1 The floating-point operations on floating-point types are the following: - addF x + y - subF x - y - mulF x * y - divF x / y - negF -x - absF fabsf(x), fabs(x), fabsl(x) - exponentF 1.f+logbf(x), 1.0+logb(x), 1.L+logbl(x) - scaleF scalbnf(x, n), scalbn(x, n), scalbnl(x, n), - scalblnf(x, li), scalbln(x, li), scalblnl(x, li) - intpartF modff(x, &y), modf(x, &y), modfl(x, &y) - fractpartF modff(x, &y), modf(x, &y), modfl(x, &y) - eqF x == y - neqF x != y - lssF x < y - leqF x <= y - gtrF x > y - geqF x >= y - where x and y are expressions of the same floating point type, n is of type int, and li - is of type long int. - H.2.3.3 Rounding styles -1 The C Standard requires all floating types to use the same radix and rounding style, so - that only one identifier for each is provided to map to LIA-1. -2 The FLT_ROUNDS parameter can be used to indicate the LIA-1 rounding styles: - truncate FLT_ROUNDS == 0 - - -[page 544] (Contents) - - nearest FLT_ROUNDS == 1 - other FLT_ROUNDS != 0 && FLT_ROUNDS != 1 - provided that an implementation extends FLT_ROUNDS to cover the rounding style used - in all relevant LIA-1 operations, not just addition as in C. - H.2.4 Type conversions -1 The LIA-1 type conversions are the following type casts: - cvtI' (->) I (int)i, (long int)i, (long long int)i, - (unsigned int)i, (unsigned long int)i, - (unsigned long long int)i - cvtF (->) I (int)x, (long int)x, (long long int)x, - (unsigned int)x, (unsigned long int)x, - (unsigned long long int)x - cvtI (->) F (float)i, (double)i, (long double)i - cvtF' (->) F (float)x, (double)x, (long double)x -2 In the above conversions from floating to integer, the use of (cast)x can be replaced with - (cast)round(x), (cast)rint(x), (cast)nearbyint(x), (cast)trunc(x), - (cast)ceil(x), or (cast)floor(x). In addition, C's floating-point to integer - conversion functions, lrint(), llrint(), lround(), and llround(), can be - used. They all meet LIA-1's requirements on floating to integer rounding for in-range - values. For out-of-range values, the conversions shall silently wrap for the modulo types. -3 The fmod() function is useful for doing silent wrapping to unsigned integer types, e.g., - fmod( fabs(rint(x)), 65536.0 ) or (0.0 <= (y = fmod( rint(x), - 65536.0 )) ? y : 65536.0 + y) will compute an integer value in the range 0.0 - to 65535.0 which can then be cast to unsigned short int. But, the - remainder() function is not useful for doing silent wrapping to signed integer types, - e.g., remainder( rint(x), 65536.0 ) will compute an integer value in the - range -32767.0 to +32768.0 which is not, in general, in the range of signed short - int. -4 C's conversions (casts) from floating-point to floating-point can meet LIA-1 - requirements if an implementation uses round-to-nearest (IEC 60559 default). -5 C's conversions (casts) from integer to floating-point can meet LIA-1 requirements if an - implementation uses round-to-nearest. - - - - -[page 545] (Contents) - - H.3 Notification -1 Notification is the process by which a user or program is informed that an exceptional - arithmetic operation has occurred. C's operations are compatible with LIA-1 in that C - allows an implementation to cause a notification to occur when any arithmetic operation - returns an exceptional value as defined in LIA-1 clause 5. - H.3.1 Notification alternatives -1 LIA-1 requires at least the following two alternatives for handling of notifications: - setting indicators or trap-and-terminate. LIA-1 allows a third alternative: trap-and- - resume. -2 An implementation need only support a given notification alternative for the entire - program. An implementation may support the ability to switch between notification - alternatives during execution, but is not required to do so. An implementation can - provide separate selection for each kind of notification, but this is not required. -3 C allows an implementation to provide notification. C's SIGFPE (for traps) and - FE_INVALID, FE_DIVBYZERO, FE_OVERFLOW, FE_UNDERFLOW (for indicators) - can provide LIA-1 notification. -4 C's signal handlers are compatible with LIA-1. Default handling of SIGFPE can - provide trap-and-terminate behavior, except for those LIA-1 operations implemented by - math library function calls. User-provided signal handlers for SIGFPE allow for trap- - and-resume behavior with the same constraint. - H.3.1.1 Indicators -1 C's <fenv.h> status flags are compatible with the LIA-1 indicators. -2 The following mapping is for floating-point types: - undefined FE_INVALID, FE_DIVBYZERO - floating_overflow FE_OVERFLOW - underflow FE_UNDERFLOW -3 The floating-point indicator interrogation and manipulation operations are: - set_indicators feraiseexcept(i) - clear_indicators feclearexcept(i) - test_indicators fetestexcept(i) - current_indicators fetestexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) - where i is an expression of type int representing a subset of the LIA-1 indicators. -4 C allows an implementation to provide the following LIA-1 required behavior: at - program termination if any indicator is set the implementation shall send an unambiguous -[page 546] (Contents) - - and ''hard to ignore'' message (see LIA-1 subclause 6.1.2) -5 LIA-1 does not make the distinction between floating-point and integer for ''undefined''. - This documentation makes that distinction because <fenv.h> covers only the floating- - point indicators. - H.3.1.2 Traps -1 C is compatible with LIA-1's trap requirements for arithmetic operations, but not for - math library functions (which are not permitted to invoke a user's signal handler for - SIGFPE). An implementation can provide an alternative of notification through - termination with a ''hard-to-ignore'' message (see LIA-1 subclause 6.1.3). -2 LIA-1 does not require that traps be precise. -3 C does require that SIGFPE be the signal corresponding to LIA-1 arithmetic exceptions, - if there is any signal raised for them. -4 C supports signal handlers for SIGFPE and allows trapping of LIA-1 arithmetic - exceptions. When LIA-1 arithmetic exceptions do trap, C's signal-handler mechanism - allows trap-and-terminate (either default implementation behavior or user replacement for - it) or trap-and-resume, at the programmer's option. - - - - -[page 547] (Contents) - - Annex I - (informative) - Common warnings -1 An implementation may generate warnings in many situations, none of which are - specified as part of this International Standard.

Not only - do these functions not check that the arrays are big enough, they frequently lack the - information needed to perform such checks. While it is possible to write safe, robust, and - error-free code using the existing library, the library tends to promote programming styles - that lead to mysterious failures if a result is too big for the provided array. -2 A common programming style is to declare character arrays large enough to handle most - practical cases. However, if these arrays are not large enough to handle the resulting - strings, data can be written past the end of the array overwriting other data and program - structures. The program never gets any indication that a problem exists, and so never has - a chance to recover or to fail gracefully. -3 Worse, this style of programming has compromised the security of computers and - networks. Buffer overflows can often be exploited to run arbitrary code with the - permissions of the vulnerable (defective) program. -4 If the programmer writes runtime checks to verify lengths before calling library - functions, then those runtime checks frequently duplicate work done inside the library - functions, which discover string lengths as a side effect of doing their job. -5 This annex provides alternative library functions that promote safer, more secure - programming. The alternative functions verify that output buffers are large enough for - the intended result and return a failure indicator if they are not. Data is never written past - the end of an array. All string results are null terminated. -6 This annex also addresses another problem that complicates writing robust code: - functions that are not reentrant because they return pointers to static objects owned by the - function. Such functions can be troublesome since a previously returned result can - change if the function is called again, perhaps by another thread. - - - - -[page 578] (Contents) - - K.2 Scope -1 This annex specifies a series of optional extensions that can be useful in the mitigation of - security vulnerabilities in programs, and comprise new functions, macros, and types - declared or defined in existing standard headers. -2 An implementation that defines __STDC_LIB_EXT1__ shall conform to the - specifications in this annex.367) -3 Subclause K.3 should be read as if it were merged into the parallel structure of named - subclauses of clause 7. - K.3 Library - K.3.1 Introduction - K.3.1.1 Standard headers -1 The functions, macros, and types declared or defined in K.3 and its subclauses are not - declared or defined by their respective headers if __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ is - defined as a macro which expands to the integer constant 0 at the point in the source file - where the appropriate header is first included. -2 The functions, macros, and types declared or defined in K.3 and its subclauses are - declared and defined by their respective headers if __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ is - defined as a macro which expands to the integer constant 1 at the point in the source file - where the appropriate header is first included.368) -3 It is implementation-defined whether the functions, macros, and types declared or defined - in K.3 and its subclauses are declared or defined by their respective headers if - __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ is not defined as a macro at the point in the source file - where the appropriate header is first included.369) -4 Within a preprocessing translation unit, __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ shall be - defined identically for all inclusions of any headers from subclause K.3. If - __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ is defined differently for any such inclusion, the - implementation shall issue a diagnostic as if a preprocessor error directive were used. - - - 367) Implementations that do not define __STDC_LIB_EXT1__ are not required to conform to these - specifications. - 368) Future revisions of this International Standard may define meanings for other values of - __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__. - 369) Subclause 7.1.3 reserves certain names and patterns of names that an implementation may use in - headers. All other names are not reserved, and a conforming implementation is not permitted to use - them. While some of the names defined in K.3 and its subclauses are reserved, others are not. If an - unreserved name is defined in a header when __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ is defined as 0, the - implementation is not conforming. - -[page 579] (Contents) - - K.3.1.2 Reserved identifiers -1 Each macro name in any of the following subclauses is reserved for use as specified if it - is defined by any of its associated headers when included; unless explicitly stated - otherwise (see 7.1.4). -2 All identifiers with external linkage in any of the following subclauses are reserved for - use as identifiers with external linkage if any of them are used by the program. None of - them are reserved if none of them are used. -3 Each identifier with file scope listed in any of the following subclauses is reserved for use - as a macro name and as an identifier with file scope in the same name space if it is - defined by any of its associated headers when included. - K.3.1.3 Use of errno -1 An implementation may set errno for the functions defined in this annex, but is not - required to. - K.3.1.4 Runtime-constraint violations -1 Most functions in this annex include as part of their specification a list of runtime- - constraints. These runtime-constraints are requirements on the program using the - library.370) -2 Implementations shall verify that the runtime-constraints for a function are not violated - by the program. If a runtime-constraint is violated, the implementation shall call the - currently registered runtime-constraint handler (see set_constraint_handler_s - in <stdlib.h>). Multiple runtime-constraint violations in the same call to a library - function result in only one call to the runtime-constraint handler. It is unspecified which - one of the multiple runtime-constraint violations cause the handler to be called. -3 If the runtime-constraints section for a function states an action to be performed when a - runtime-constraint violation occurs, the function shall perform the action before calling - the runtime-constraint handler. If the runtime-constraints section lists actions that are - prohibited when a runtime-constraint violation occurs, then such actions are prohibited to - the function both before calling the handler and after the handler returns. -4 The runtime-constraint handler might not return. If the handler does return, the library - function whose runtime-constraint was violated shall return some indication of failure as - given by the returns section in the function's specification. - - - - 370) Although runtime-constraints replace many cases of undefined behavior, undefined behavior still - exists in this annex. Implementations are free to detect any case of undefined behavior and treat it as a - runtime-constraint violation by calling the runtime-constraint handler. This license comes directly - from the definition of undefined behavior. - -[page 580] (Contents) - - K.3.2 Errors <errno.h> -1 The header <errno.h> defines a type. -2 The type is - errno_t - which is type int.371) - K.3.3 Common definitions <stddef.h> -1 The header <stddef.h> defines a type. -2 The type is - rsize_t - which is the type size_t.372) - K.3.4 Integer types <stdint.h> -1 The header <stdint.h> defines a macro. -2 The macro is - RSIZE_MAX - which expands to a value373) of type size_t. Functions that have parameters of type - rsize_t consider it a runtime-constraint violation if the values of those parameters are - greater than RSIZE_MAX. - Recommended practice -3 Extremely large object sizes are frequently a sign that an object's size was calculated - incorrectly. For example, negative numbers appear as very large positive numbers when - converted to an unsigned type like size_t. Also, some implementations do not support - objects as large as the maximum value that can be represented by type size_t. -4 For those reasons, it is sometimes beneficial to restrict the range of object sizes to detect - programming errors. For implementations targeting machines with large address spaces, - it is recommended that RSIZE_MAX be defined as the smaller of the size of the largest - object supported or (SIZE_MAX >> 1), even if this limit is smaller than the size of - some legitimate, but very large, objects. Implementations targeting machines with small - address spaces may wish to define RSIZE_MAX as SIZE_MAX, which means that there - - 371) As a matter of programming style, errno_t may be used as the type of something that deals only - with the values that might be found in errno. For example, a function which returns the value of - errno might be declared as having the return type errno_t. - 372) See the description of the RSIZE_MAX macro in <stdint.h>. - 373) The macro RSIZE_MAX need not expand to a constant expression. - -[page 581] (Contents) - - is no object size that is considered a runtime-constraint violation. - K.3.5 Input/output <stdio.h> -1 The header <stdio.h> defines several macros and two types. -2 The macros are - L_tmpnam_s - which expands to an integer constant expression that is the size needed for an array of - char large enough to hold a temporary file name string generated by the tmpnam_s - function; - TMP_MAX_S - which expands to an integer constant expression that is the maximum number of unique - file names that can be generated by the tmpnam_s function. -3 The types are - errno_t - which is type int; and - rsize_t - which is the type size_t. - K.3.5.1 Operations on files - K.3.5.1.1 The tmpfile_s function - Synopsis -1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1 - #include <stdio.h> - errno_t tmpfile_s(FILE * restrict * restrict streamptr); - Runtime-constraints -2 streamptr shall not be a null pointer. -3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, tmpfile_s does not attempt to create a file. - Description -4 The tmpfile_s function creates a temporary binary file that is different from any other - existing file and that will automatically be removed when it is closed or at program - termination. If the program terminates abnormally, whether an open temporary file is - removed is implementation-defined. The file is opened for update with "wb+" mode - with the meaning that mode has in the fopen_s function (including the mode's effect - on exclusive access and file permissions). - - -[page 582] (Contents) - -5 If the file was created successfully, then the pointer to FILE pointed to by streamptr - will be set to the pointer to the object controlling the opened file. Otherwise, the pointer - to FILE pointed to by streamptr will be set to a null pointer. - Recommended practice - It should be possible to open at least TMP_MAX_S temporary files during the lifetime of - the program (this limit may be shared with tmpnam_s) and there should be no limit on - the number simultaneously open other than this limit and any limit on the number of open - files (FOPEN_MAX). - Returns -6 The tmpfile_s function returns zero if it created the file.

The lengths of these strings shall be less than - the value of the L_tmpnam_s macro. -4 The tmpnam_s function generates a different string each time it is called. -5 It is assumed that s points to an array of at least maxsize characters. This array will be - set to generated string, as specified below. - - - - 374) Files created using strings generated by the tmpnam_s function are temporary only in the sense that - their names should not collide with those generated by conventional naming rules for the - implementation. It is still necessary to use the remove function to remove such files when their use - is ended, and before program termination.

For a state-dependent encoding, each function is placed into its - initial conversion state by a call for which its character pointer argument, s, is a null - pointer. Subsequent calls with s as other than a null pointer cause the internal conversion - state of the function to be altered as necessary. A call with s as a null pointer causes - these functions to set the int pointed to by their status argument to a nonzero value if - encodings have state dependency, and zero otherwise.399) Changing the LC_CTYPE - category causes the conversion state of these functions to be indeterminate. - K.3.6.4.1 The wctomb_s function - Synopsis -1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1 - #include <stdlib.h> - errno_t wctomb_s(int * restrict status, - char * restrict s, - rsize_t smax, - wchar_t wc); - Runtime-constraints -2 Let n denote the number of bytes needed to represent the multibyte character - corresponding to the wide character given by wc (including any shift sequences). -3 If s is not a null pointer, then smax shall not be less than n, and smax shall not be - greater than RSIZE_MAX. If s is a null pointer, then smax shall equal zero. -4 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, wctomb_s does not modify the int pointed to - by status, and if s is not a null pointer, no more than smax elements in the array - pointed to by s will be accessed. - Description -5 The wctomb_s function determines n and stores the multibyte character representation - of wc in the array whose first element is pointed to by s (if s is not a null pointer). The - number of characters stored never exceeds MB_CUR_MAX or smax. If wc is a null wide - character, a null byte is stored, preceded by any shift sequence needed to restore the - initial shift state, and the function is left in the initial conversion state. -6 The implementation shall behave as if no library function calls the wctomb_s function. - - - - - 399) If the locale employs special bytes to change the shift state, these bytes do not produce separate wide - character codes, but are grouped with an adjacent multibyte character. - -[page 606] (Contents) - -7 If s is a null pointer, the wctomb_s function stores into the int pointed to by status a - nonzero or zero value, if multibyte character encodings, respectively, do or do not have - state-dependent encodings. -8 If s is not a null pointer, the wctomb_s function stores into the int pointed to by - status either n or -1 if wc, respectively, does or does not correspond to a valid - multibyte character. -9 In no case will the int pointed to by status be set to a value greater than the - MB_CUR_MAX macro. - Returns -10 The wctomb_s function returns zero if successful, and a nonzero value if there was a - runtime-constraint violation or wc did not correspond to a valid multibyte character. - K.3.6.5 Multibyte/wide string conversion functions -1 The behavior of the multibyte string functions is affected by the LC_CTYPE category of - the current locale. - K.3.6.5.1 The mbstowcs_s function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - errno_t mbstowcs_s(size_t * restrict retval, - wchar_t * restrict dst, rsize_t dstmax, - const char * restrict src, rsize_t len); - Runtime-constraints -2 Neither retval nor src shall be a null pointer. If dst is not a null pointer, then - neither len nor dstmax shall be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If dst is a null pointer, - then dstmax shall equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer, then dstmax shall not equal - zero. If dst is not a null pointer and len is not less than dstmax, then a null character - shall occur within the first dstmax multibyte characters of the array pointed to by src. -3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then mbstowcs_s does the following. If - retval is not a null pointer, then mbstowcs_s sets *retval to (size_t)(-1). If - dst is not a null pointer and dstmax is greater than zero and less than RSIZE_MAX, - then mbstowcs_s sets dst[0] to the null wide character. - Description -4 The mbstowcs_s function converts a sequence of multibyte characters that begins in - the initial shift state from the array pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding - wide characters. If dst is not a null pointer, the converted characters are stored into the - array pointed to by dst. Conversion continues up to and including a terminating null - character, which is also stored. Conversion stops earlier in two cases: when a sequence of -[page 607] (Contents) - - bytes is encountered that does not form a valid multibyte character, or (if dst is not a - null pointer) when len wide characters have been stored into the array pointed to by - dst.400) If dst is not a null pointer and no null wide character was stored into the array - pointed to by dst, then dst[len] is set to the null wide character. Each conversion - takes place as if by a call to the mbrtowc function. -5 Regardless of whether dst is or is not a null pointer, if the input conversion encounters a - sequence of bytes that do not form a valid multibyte character, an encoding error occurs: - the mbstowcs_s function stores the value (size_t)(-1) into *retval. - Otherwise, the mbstowcs_s function stores into *retval the number of multibyte - characters successfully converted, not including the terminating null character (if any). -6 All elements following the terminating null wide character (if any) written by - mbstowcs_s in the array of dstmax wide characters pointed to by dst take - unspecified values when mbstowcs_s returns.401) -7 If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the objects take on unspecified - values. - Returns -8 The mbstowcs_s function returns zero if no runtime-constraint violation and no - encoding error occurred. Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned. - K.3.6.5.2 The wcstombs_s function - Synopsis -1 #include <stdlib.h> - errno_t wcstombs_s(size_t * restrict retval, - char * restrict dst, rsize_t dstmax, - const wchar_t * restrict src, rsize_t len); - Runtime-constraints -2 Neither retval nor src shall be a null pointer. If dst is not a null pointer, then - neither len nor dstmax shall be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If dst is a null pointer, - then dstmax shall equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer, then dstmax shall not equal - zero. If dst is not a null pointer and len is not less than dstmax, then the conversion - shall have been stopped (see below) because a terminating null wide character was - reached or because an encoding error occurred. - - - - - 400) Thus, the value of len is ignored if dst is a null pointer. - 401) This allows an implementation to attempt converting the multibyte string before discovering a - terminating null character did not occur where required. - -[page 608] (Contents) - -3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then wcstombs_s does the following. If - retval is not a null pointer, then wcstombs_s sets *retval to (size_t)(-1). If - dst is not a null pointer and dstmax is greater than zero and less than RSIZE_MAX, - then wcstombs_s sets dst[0] to the null character. - Description -4 The wcstombs_s function converts a sequence of wide characters from the array - pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding multibyte characters that begins in - the initial shift state. If dst is not a null pointer, the converted characters are then stored - into the array pointed to by dst. Conversion continues up to and including a terminating - null wide character, which is also stored. Conversion stops earlier in two cases: - -- when a wide character is reached that does not correspond to a valid multibyte - character; - -- (if dst is not a null pointer) when the next multibyte character would exceed the - limit of n total bytes to be stored into the array pointed to by dst. If the wide - character being converted is the null wide character, then n is the lesser of len or - dstmax. Otherwise, n is the lesser of len or dstmax-1. - If the conversion stops without converting a null wide character and dst is not a null - pointer, then a null character is stored into the array pointed to by dst immediately - following any multibyte characters already stored. Each conversion takes place as if by a - call to the wcrtomb function.402) -5 Regardless of whether dst is or is not a null pointer, if the input conversion encounters a - wide character that does not correspond to a valid multibyte character, an encoding error - occurs: the wcstombs_s function stores the value (size_t)(-1) into *retval. - Otherwise, the wcstombs_s function stores into *retval the number of bytes in the - resulting multibyte character sequence, not including the terminating null character (if - any). -6 All elements following the terminating null character (if any) written by wcstombs_s - in the array of dstmax elements pointed to by dst take unspecified values when - wcstombs_s returns.403) -7 If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the objects take on unspecified - values. - - - 402) If conversion stops because a terminating null wide character has been reached, the bytes stored - include those necessary to reach the initial shift state immediately before the null byte. However, if - the conversion stops before a terminating null wide character has been reached, the result will be null - terminated, but might not end in the initial shift state. - 403) When len is not less than dstmax, the implementation might fill the array before discovering a - runtime-constraint violation. - -[page 609] (Contents) - - Returns -8 The wcstombs_s function returns zero if no runtime-constraint violation and no - encoding error occurred.

If no null character was copied from s2, then s1[s1max-m+n] is set to - a null character. -6 All elements following the terminating null character (if any) written by strncat_s in - the array of s1max characters pointed to by s1 take unspecified values when - strncat_s returns.412) - Returns -7 The strncat_s function returns zero413) if there was no runtime-constraint violation. - Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned. -8 EXAMPLE 1 The strncat_s function can be used to copy a string without the danger that the result - will not be null terminated or that characters will be written past the end of the destination array. - #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1 - #include <string.h> - /* ... */ - char s1[100] = "good"; - char s2[6] = "hello"; - char s3[6] = "hello"; - char s4[7] = "abc"; - char s5[1000] = "bye"; - int r1, r2, r3, r4; - r1 = strncat_s(s1, 100, s5, 1000); - r2 = strncat_s(s2, 6, "", 1); - r3 = strncat_s(s3, 6, "X", 2); - r4 = strncat_s(s4, 7, "defghijklmn", 3); - After the first call r1 will have the value zero and s1 will contain the sequence goodbye\0. - - - - 411) Zero means that s1 was not null terminated upon entry to strncat_s. - 412) This allows an implementation to append characters from s2 to s1 while simultaneously checking if - any of those characters are null. Such an approach might write a character to every element of s1 - before discovering that the first element should be set to the null character. - 413) A zero return value implies that all of the requested characters from the string pointed to by s2 were - appended to the string pointed to by s1 and that the result in s1 is null terminated. - -[page 615] (Contents) - - After the second call r2 will have the value zero and s2 will contain the sequence hello\0. - After the third call r3 will have a nonzero value and s3 will contain the sequence \0. - After the fourth call r4 will have the value zero and s4 will contain the sequence abcdef\0. - - K.3.7.3 Search functions - K.3.7.3.1 The strtok_s function - Synopsis -1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1 - #include <string.h> - char *strtok_s(char * restrict s1, - rsize_t * restrict s1max, - const char * restrict s2, - char ** restrict ptr); - Runtime-constraints -2 None of s1max, s2, or ptr shall be a null pointer. If s1 is a null pointer, then *ptr - shall not be a null pointer. The value of *s1max shall not be greater than RSIZE_MAX. - The end of the token found shall occur within the first *s1max characters of s1 for the - first call, and shall occur within the first *s1max characters of where searching resumes - on subsequent calls. -3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, the strtok_s function does not indirect - through the s1 or s2 pointers, and does not store a value in the object pointed to by ptr. - Description -4 A sequence of calls to the strtok_s function breaks the string pointed to by s1 into a - sequence of tokens, each of which is delimited by a character from the string pointed to - by s2. The fourth argument points to a caller-provided char pointer into which the - strtok_s function stores information necessary for it to continue scanning the same - string. -5 The first call in a sequence has a non-null first argument and s1max points to an object - whose value is the number of elements in the character array pointed to by the first - argument. The first call stores an initial value in the object pointed to by ptr and - updates the value pointed to by s1max to reflect the number of elements that remain in - relation to ptr. Subsequent calls in the sequence have a null first argument and the - objects pointed to by s1max and ptr are required to have the values stored by the - previous call in the sequence, which are then updated. The separator string pointed to by - s2 may be different from call to call. -6 The first call in the sequence searches the string pointed to by s1 for the first character - that is not contained in the current separator string pointed to by s2. If no such character - is found, then there are no tokens in the string pointed to by s1 and the strtok_s - function returns a null pointer. If such a character is found, it is the start of the first token. -[page 616] (Contents) - -7 The strtok_s function then searches from there for the first character in s1 that is - contained in the current separator string. If no such character is found, the current token - extends to the end of the string pointed to by s1, and subsequent searches in the same - string for a token return a null pointer. If such a character is found, it is overwritten by a - null character, which terminates the current token. -8 In all cases, the strtok_s function stores sufficient information in the pointer pointed - to by ptr so that subsequent calls, with a null pointer for s1 and the unmodified pointer - value for ptr, shall start searching just past the element overwritten by a null character - (if any). - Returns -9 The strtok_s function returns a pointer to the first character of a token, or a null - pointer if there is no token or there is a runtime-constraint violation. -10 EXAMPLE - #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1 - #include <string.h> - static char str1[] = "?a???b,,,#c"; - static char str2[] = "\t \t"; - char *t, *ptr1, *ptr2; - rsize_t max1 = sizeof(str1); - rsize_t max2 = sizeof(str2); - t = strtok_s(str1, &max1, "?", &ptr1); // t points to the token "a" - t = strtok_s(NULL, &max1, ",", &ptr1); // t points to the token "??b" - t = strtok_s(str2, &max2, " \t", &ptr2); // t is a null pointer - t = strtok_s(NULL, &max1, "#,", &ptr1); // t points to the token "c" - t = strtok_s(NULL, &max1, "?", &ptr1); // t is a null pointer - - K.3.7.4 Miscellaneous functions - K.3.7.4.1 The memset_s function - Synopsis -1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1 - #include <string.h> - errno_t memset_s(void *s, rsize_t smax, int c, rsize_t n) - Runtime-constraints -2 s shall not be a null pointer.

The fourth argument points to a caller-provided wchar_t - pointer into which the wcstok_s function stores information necessary for it to - continue scanning the same wide string. -5 The first call in a sequence has a non-null first argument and s1max points to an object - whose value is the number of elements in the wide character array pointed to by the first - argument. The first call stores an initial value in the object pointed to by ptr and - updates the value pointed to by s1max to reflect the number of elements that remain in - relation to ptr. Subsequent calls in the sequence have a null first argument and the - objects pointed to by s1max and ptr are required to have the values stored by the - previous call in the sequence, which are then updated. The separator wide string pointed - to by s2 may be different from call to call. -6 The first call in the sequence searches the wide string pointed to by s1 for the first wide - character that is not contained in the current separator wide string pointed to by s2.

If such a wide character - is found, it is overwritten by a null wide character, which terminates the current token. -8 In all cases, the wcstok_s function stores sufficient information in the pointer pointed - to by ptr so that subsequent calls, with a null pointer for s1 and the unmodified pointer - value for ptr, shall start searching just past the element overwritten by a null wide - character (if any). - Returns -9 The wcstok_s function returns a pointer to the first wide character of a token, or a null - pointer if there is no token or there is a runtime-constraint violation. -10 EXAMPLE - #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1 - #include <wchar.h> - static wchar_t str1[] = L"?a???b,,,#c"; - static wchar_t str2[] = L"\t \t"; - wchar_t *t, *ptr1, *ptr2; - rsize_t max1 = wcslen(str1)+1; - rsize_t max2 = wcslen(str2)+1; - t = wcstok_s(str1, &max1, "?", &ptr1); // t points to the token "a" - t = wcstok_s(NULL, &max1, ",", &ptr1); // t points to the token "??b" - t = wcstok_s(str2, &max2, " \t", &ptr2); // t is a null pointer - t = wcstok_s(NULL, &max1, "#,", &ptr1); // t points to the token "c" - t = wcstok_s(NULL, &max1, "?", &ptr1); // t is a null pointer - - K.3.9.2.4 Miscellaneous functions - K.3.9.2.4.1 The wcsnlen_s function - Synopsis -1 #define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1 - #include <wchar.h> - size_t wcsnlen_s(const wchar_t *s, size_t maxsize); - Description -2 The wcsnlen_s function computes the length of the wide string pointed to by s. - Returns -3 If s is a null pointer,438) then the wcsnlen_s function returns zero. -4 Otherwise, the wcsnlen_s function returns the number of wide characters that precede - the terminating null wide character.

If s is not a null pointer, then smax - shall not equal zero and shall not be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If s is not a null pointer, - then smax shall be not be less than the number of bytes to be stored in the array pointed - to by s. If s is a null pointer, then smax shall equal zero. -4 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then wcrtomb_s does the following. If s is - not a null pointer and smax is greater than zero and not greater than RSIZE_MAX, then - wcrtomb_s sets s[0] to the null character. If retval is not a null pointer, then - wcrtomb_s sets *retval to (size_t)(-1). - Description -5 If s is a null pointer, the wcrtomb_s function is equivalent to the call - wcrtomb_s(&retval, buf, sizeof buf, L'\0', ps) - where retval and buf are internal variables of the appropriate types, and the size of - buf is greater than MB_CUR_MAX. -6 If s is not a null pointer, the wcrtomb_s function determines the number of bytes - needed to represent the multibyte character that corresponds to the wide character given - by wc (including any shift sequences), and stores the multibyte character representation - in the array whose first element is pointed to by s. At most MB_CUR_MAX bytes are - stored. If wc is a null wide character, a null byte is stored, preceded by any shift - sequence needed to restore the initial shift state; the resulting state described is the initial - conversion state. - - 438) Note that the wcsnlen_s function has no runtime-constraints.

If - retval is not a null pointer, then wcsrtombs_s sets *retval to (size_t)(-1). - If dst is not a null pointer and dstmax is greater than zero and less than RSIZE_MAX, - then wcsrtombs_s sets dst[0] to the null character. - Description -14 The wcsrtombs_s function converts a sequence of wide characters from the array - indirectly pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding multibyte characters that - begins in the conversion state described by the object pointed to by ps. If dst is not a - null pointer, the converted characters are then stored into the array pointed to by dst. - Conversion continues up to and including a terminating null wide character, which is also - stored. Conversion stops earlier in two cases: - -- when a wide character is reached that does not correspond to a valid multibyte - character; - -- (if dst is not a null pointer) when the next multibyte character would exceed the - limit of n total bytes to be stored into the array pointed to by dst. If the wide - character being converted is the null wide character, then n is the lesser of len or - dstmax. Otherwise, n is the lesser of len or dstmax-1. - If the conversion stops without converting a null wide character and dst is not a null - pointer, then a null character is stored into the array pointed to by dst immediately - following any multibyte characters already stored. Each conversion takes place as if by a - call to the wcrtomb function.441) -15 If dst is not a null pointer, the pointer object pointed to by src is assigned either a null - pointer (if conversion stopped due to reaching a terminating null wide character) or the - address just past the last wide character converted (if any).

+ None of retval, src, *src, or ps shall be null pointers. If dst is not a null pointer, + then neither len nor dstmax shall be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If dst is a null + pointer, then dstmax shall equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer, then dstmax shall + not equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer and len is not less than dstmax, then a null + character shall occur within the first dstmax multibyte characters of the array pointed to + by *src. +
+ If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then mbsrtowcs_s does the following.

Description +

+ None of retval, src, *src, or ps shall be null pointers. If dst is not a null pointer, + then neither len nor dstmax shall be greater than RSIZE_MAX. If dst is a null + pointer, then dstmax shall equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer, then dstmax shall + not equal zero. If dst is not a null pointer and len is not less than dstmax, then the + conversion shall have been stopped (see below) because a terminating null wide character + was reached or because an encoding error occurred. +
+ If there is a runtime-constraint violation, then wcsrtombs_s does the following. If + retval is not a null pointer, then wcsrtombs_s sets *retval to (size_t)(-1). + If dst is not a null pointer and dstmax is greater than zero and less than RSIZE_MAX, + then wcsrtombs_s sets dst[0] to the null character. +
Description +
+ The wcsrtombs_s function converts a sequence of wide characters from the array + indirectly pointed to by src into a sequence of corresponding multibyte characters that + begins in the conversion state described by the object pointed to by ps. If dst is not a + null pointer, the converted characters are then stored into the array pointed to by dst. + Conversion continues up to and including a terminating null wide character, which is also + stored. Conversion stops earlier in two cases: +
+ If dst is not a null pointer, the pointer object pointed to by src is assigned either a null + pointer (if conversion stopped due to reaching a terminating null wide character) or the + address just past the last wide character converted (if any). If conversion stopped due to + reaching a terminating null wide character, the resulting state described is the initial + conversion state. + + + +
+ Regardless of whether dst is or is not a null pointer, if the input conversion encounters a + wide character that does not correspond to a valid multibyte character, an encoding error + occurs: the wcsrtombs_s function stores the value (size_t)(-1) into *retval + and the conversion state is unspecified. Otherwise, the wcsrtombs_s function stores + into *retval the number of bytes in the resulting multibyte character sequence, not + including the terminating null character (if any). +
+ All elements following the terminating null character (if any) written by wcsrtombs_s + in the array of dstmax elements pointed to by dst take unspecified values when + wcsrtombs_s returns.442) +
+ If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the objects take on unspecified + values. +
Returns +
+ The wcsrtombs_s function returns zero if no runtime-constraint violation and no + encoding error occurred. Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned. + + + + + + +
Footnotes +
441) If conversion stops because a terminating null wide character has been reached, the bytes stored + include those necessary to reach the initial shift state immediately before the null byte. However, if + the conversion stops before a terminating null wide character has been reached, the result will be null + terminated, but might not end in the initial shift state. + +
442) When len is not less than dstmax, the implementation might fill the array before discovering a + runtime-constraint violation. + + +
