Subject: [PATCH 5/5] mingw: use {gm,local}time_s as backend for {gm,local}time_r
Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2019 22:13:21 +0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2c39f9a04f98fc3d365c80ce57e8edce305846fb.1574867409.git.congdanhqx@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1574867409.git.congdanhqx@gmail.com>

Since Windows doesn't provide gmtime_r(3) and localtime_r(3),
we're providing a compat version by using non-reentrant gmtime(3) and
localtime(3) as backend. Then, we copy the returned data into the
buffer.

By doing that, in case of failure, we will dereference a NULL pointer
returned by gmtime(3), and localtime(3), and we always return a valid
pointer instead of NULL.

Drop the memcpy(3) by using gmtime_s, and localtime_s as backend on
Windows, and make sure we will return NULL in case of failure.
