valid_utf8_to_uv{chr,uni} have no documentation, so remove the 'd' flag.
Commit
27d6c58a7e12243b added valid_utf8_to_uv{chr,uni} with the commit
message:
utf8.c: Add valid_utf8_to_uvuni() and valid_utf8_to_uvchr()
These functions are like utf8_to_uvuni() and utf8_to_uvchr(), but their
name implies that the input UTF-8 has been validated.
They are not currently documented, as it's best for XS writers to call
the functions that do validation.
However, it also inadvertently gave each a 'd' flag in embed.fnc, incorrectly
stating that they had documentation, which causes autodoc.pl to warn that it
can't find the documentation.
So remove the 'd' flag to correctly reflect the intended lack of documentation.

[perl #112478] Avoid buffer overflow in upg_version
On most systems, this is actually a panic, rather than an overflow,
because the overflow is detected before it can happen.
upg_version needs to use the equivalent of sprintf "%.9f" on a numeric
input before parsing it. For speed’s sake, I assume, it was done
using my_snprintf, with a C auto for the buffer, declared with a fixed
size of 64.
There is no guarantee that the number passed in will not overflow that
buffer, so upg_version should use an SV and sv_catpvf in those cases
where it would overflow.

[perl #112444] Don’t leak %^H autovivified by destructor
More precisely, don’t let a hint hash autovivified by a destructor
during scope exit leak to outer scopes.
GvHV(PL_hintgv) (aka *^H{HASH}) must be set to null before the hash in
it is freed on scope exit. Otherwise destructors will see %^H with a
refcount of zero, and might try to iterate over a hash that is in the
process of being freed. Bad things then happen. Commit
2653c1e3b1
took care of this.
Now, if GvHV(PL_hintgv) is null when destructors are called, those
destructors might end up autovivifying it. The code in scope.c that
handles hints when a scope is left (SAVEt_HINTS in Perl_leave_scope)
would then end up leaving that new autovivified %^H in place when the
scope exited, if the outer scope did not have HINT_LOCALIZE_HH set
(meaning %^H was unused).
That in itself would not be so much of a problem, if it were not for
the fact that %^H is magicalised by the scope-handling code, not when
it is autovivified (see also bug #112458). Hence, subsequent changes
to %^H would not magically set the HINT_LOCALIZE_HH hint bit, which
bit is checked all over the place to see whether %^H is in use. This,
in turn, would cause hints subsequently added to %^H to leak to
outer scopes.
This commit fixes that by repeatedly freeing GvHV(PL_hintgv). If a
destructor autovivifies it again, it just causes another iteration of
the while loop. This does mean a destructor could autovivify %^H and
cause the new %^H itself to trigger a destructor, resulting in infi-
nite loops. But then that is that own code’s fault.
This originally came up because commit
2653c1e3b1 also caused des-
tructors that try to add new free magic to %^H to add it to a new
autovivified %^H instead of the existing %^H that was being freed.
This caused the nextgen module to fail its tests, because it uses
B::Hooks::EndOfScope to register a sub to be called on scope exit, and
it does this from a destructor itself called during scope exit. If
the autovivified %^H leaks to an outer scope, the second destructor is
not called.

fix [perl #112370] memEQ off-by-one in Perl_regexec_flags()
The problem was that when we had a floating non-unicode substr
we could read past the beginning of the string.
So for instance this code:
foreach ("\x{2603}", 'a') {
'b' =~ /(?:^|.)$_$/;
}
When run under valgrind would show an illegal read.
If run under use re 'debug' we would see output like this:
floating utf8 "a"$ at 0..1 (checking floating) minlen 1
Matching REx "(?:^|.)a$" against "b"
UTF-8 pattern...
Can't trim the tail, match fails (should not happen)
Match failed
Which suggests we are falling into a "should not happen" branch of the
code.
This patch fixes the logic to properly test string length issues, and
changes the debug output so it looks like this:
floating utf8 "a"$ at 0..1 (checking floating) minlen 1
Matching REx "(?:^|.)a$" against "b"
UTF-8 pattern...
String does not contain required trailing substring, cannot match.
Match failed

For efficiency’s sake, since there was already a block that checked to
see whether %^H was localised (which happens automatically when it is
modified), and since features always used %^H, I put the check inside
that block, so it would be skipped altogether without %^H set. (It’s
debatable whether it was actually any faster.)

[perl #109718] Clone PL_comppad properly
fork emulation on Windows, which clones a new thread via
perl_clone_using, expects to be able to access the current pad imme-
diately after the cloning, and crashes if there is no current pad.
PL_comppad was not being cloned explicitly, but simply looked up in
the pointer table, it being assumed that it had already been cloned.
For string evals, before commit 676a678, PL_compcv happened to point
to the eval’s CV. PL_compcv is cloned just before PL_comppad is set,
so that worked.
As of commit 676a678, PL_compcv does not point to the eval’s CV
at the eval’s run time, so the pad has not been cloned yet when
PL_comppad is set.
In the case of string evals, the CV does get cloned, but later on,
after PL_comppad is set, when the stacks are cloned.
Changing the setting of PL_comppad to do an actual cloning works, as,
when the eval’s CV is cloned later (during stack cloning), it will
simply pick up the pad that has already been cloned and is waiting for
it in the pointer table.
This stops eval 'fork' from crashing on Windows.

Fix VMS build broken by

This comment in perl.c:
/* Note: 20,40,80 used for NATIVE_HINTS */
(added by
a0ed51b3 [Here are the long-expected Unicode/UTF-8 mod-

vms/vmsish.h end with 7 zeroes in hex, and are only shifted down to
one zero when assigned to cop->op_private in op.c:newSTATEOP. In
PL_hints they never have the values indicated in perl.h. So those
are actually free bits. It’s the high versions in vmsish.h that
are not free.
20 (actually 0x20000000) hasn’t been used for anything since commit
744a34f9085 (Urk -- undo previous removal of vmsish 'exit' change),
which change I don’t really understand. In any case, the comment was
never updated.

/* NOTE: OP_NEXTSTATE and OP_DBSTATE (i.e. COPs) carry lower
* bits of PL_hints in op_private */

op_private does not carry the lower bits of PL_hints, but, rather,
certain higher bits of PL_hints, shifted to fit (the NATIVE_HINTS
cited above).
Due to misleading comments, I ended up breaking the VMS build in com-
mit
d1718a7cf5, by using its bits for something else.
This commit moves the bits around a bit to avoid the clash, and modi-

blead. So what bleadperl has is 2.31 plus a tiny fix that does not
affect older perl versions.

[perl #111462] Move strict hints from %^H to $^H
With commit
b50b20584, strict.pm starting putting hints in %^H to
indicate that strict mode has been enabled or disabled explicitly, so
version declarations should not change the setting.
This causes ‘Unbalanced string table refcount’ warnings when Safe.pm
encounters prohibited ops.
This happens because ops are leaking when those ops point to HEKs (in
the internal form that %^H takes when attached to ops).
This commit moves those new strict hints into $^H, to avoid those
warnings. This does simply paper over the real problem (leaked ops),
but at least it gets the warnings back down to the 5.14 amount.
Because of the new hints in $^H, B::Concise has been updated to
account for them, and so have all its tests. I modified OptreeCheck
to avoid setting the hints with ‘no strict;’, as that resulted in
slightly fewer changes to the tests. It will also result in fewer
changes to the tests in future.
Two B::Deparse tests started failing due to %^H not being localised.
Apparently there is a bug somewhere (in perl, Deparse.pm or deparse.t)
that got triggered as a result. In fact, one of the tests exhibited
*two* bugs. But for now, I’ve simply added a workaround to the two
tests so they don’t trigger those bugs (which bugs will have to wait
till after 5.16).

Maintainers.pl: Make blead upstream for B::Concise
‘undef’ (its previous value) means that it hasn’t been discussed yet.
But, for all intents and purposes, this module is maintained in blead,
since it is very tightly coupled with the perl core and is used mostly
in debugging perl itself.
What’s annoying about having it set to ‘undef’ is that
t/porting/cmp_version.t skips it.
(I almost forgot to update a version as a result.)

Safe.pm: Don’t eval code under ‘no strict’
Instead of evaluating code under ‘no strict’, we should be evaluating
it with no pragmata at all by default.
This allows ‘use 5.012’ to enable strictures in reval. It also
has the side effect of suppressing the ‘Unbalanced string table
refcount’ warnings, at least in some cases. This was brought up in
ticket #107000.

[perl #111864] Don’t leave obj on stack for -x $overloaded
Commit
8db8f6b697e changed the way filetest operators use the stack,
in order to make stacked -t work.
Filetest operators were changed to pop the argument off the stack for
a standalone operator, but to leave it on the stack for a stacking op
(so the next operator could use it). The code for handling overloaded
objects, which was separate, was already doing something similar, by
not popping the object off the stack.
I made the mistake of changing overloaded objects’ return code to
share code with regular filetest operators (the FT_RETURN_* macros),
but without changing the way the overload code got the item from the
stack to begin with. Hence, the returning code assumed that the argu-
ment had been popped for non-stacking ops, which was not the case.
This commit changes the way the overload case does it’s return, to
account for the fact that the object must be left on the stack when
initially fetched from it (in case the object turns out not to have -X
overloading and the regular code has to kick in).

[perl #111462] Don’t leak eval "" op tree when croaking
This patch only fixes the problem for croaks that occur in the peep-
hole optimiser or in Perl_finalize_optree.
It does this by doing SAVEFREEOP first and then restoring the
savestack index to its previous value afterwards (to void the effect
of SAVEFREEOP).
A more correct fix might be to do op_free in die_unwind before
POPEVAL, but I would have to do a lot more digging through the code
to tell whether that is safe. I don’t feel comfortable with doing
that for 5.16.
This leak causes this warning on non-threaded debugging builds:
$ PERL_DESTRUCT_LEVEL=1 ./perl -Ilib -e 'BEGIN { $^H{foo} = bar } our %FIELDS; my main $x; eval q[$x->{foo}]'
Unbalanced string table refcount: (1) for "foo" during global destruction.
This problem does not affect the main program, because perl_destruct
frees PL_main_root. It does not affect subroutines, as the op tree is
attached to the CV first, so freeing the CV frees the op tree.
