>Description:
As func. usb_parse_descriptor contains some undefined behavior code, which violates strict aliasing rules, when compiled with clang -O2, the library does not work properly.
>How-To-Repeat:
Add follwing lines to /etc/mk.conf and rebuild the library

>Fix:
One of the followings will do:

1. apply following patch

2. disable -O2 level optimization (-O 1 will do)

3. allow strict aliasing rules violation (-fno-strict-aliasing)

State-Changed-When: Tue, 06 Aug 2019 08:54:35 +0000
State-Changed-Why:
Does it work with the change? (I see the testsuite is segfaulting...)
It would be good to report this upstream.

 Log Message:
 libusb1: patch some undefined behaviour, disable strict aliasing, change
 -O2 to -O1 when building with clang.

 This isn't in a separate hacks.mk file because I think that hides the
 problem too much, it's an issue with the code in the package, not with
 the compiler's choices.

 Fixes functionality when built with clang.

 Additionally:
 libusb1 and libusb both seemed wrong, but I wasn't sure if both need -O1
 -fno-strict-aliasing.

 Which one were you referring to?

State-Changed-By: maya@NetBSD.org
State-Changed-When: Fri, 24 Apr 2020 14:00:19 +0000
State-Changed-Why:
nia@ ended up testing this package in practice (and finding an error in the patch, too). So I assume after she successfully used the package after her changes, we can consider it fixed, maybe.

State-Changed-Why:
Eh, on second thought, let's ask for feedback. The package changed more than I imagined.

 My main concern with the patch was that I broke the package from working
 by not being able to test it. Feel free to note if you are having issues
 with unaligned access, I believe nia tested it with GCC rather than
 clang.

feedback timeout, assume it is in fact fixed
