1d675cdb46 Fix CI jobs that check less than they claim; move arm64 to GitHub (#5733)
* Fix the ci_cmake_flags wiring so every option is checked

The CMake 3.31.6 flag list referred to itself before it was defined,
so only JSON_BuildTests was checked with that version. The targets for
the CMake running the build ("_2") were created but never added to
ci_cmake_flags, and the three versions shared one build directory.
JSON_StrictNulHandling was not in the list at all.

Use the 3.5.0 list for 3.31.6, add JSON_StrictNulHandling, and create
one ci_cmake_flag_<flag> target per option for the running CMake with
its own build directory. Also use the function parameter in the
COMMENT, refresh the stale version comment, and let ci_clean remove
the downloaded cmake-<version> directories instead of the long-gone
cmake-3.5.0-Darwin64.

* Fix ci_test_clang_libcxx_cxx* jobs silently building without warnings

CMake only seeds CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS from the CXXFLAGS environment variable
when the cache entry is unset, so the explicit -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-stdlib=libc++"
argument made it ignore CXXFLAGS="${CLANG_CXXFLAGS}" entirely. The six
ci_test_standards_clang (..., libcxx) jobs therefore compiled without
-Weverything/-Werror while their libstdc++ siblings did use them.

Pass -stdlib=libc++ through the same CXXFLAGS value instead of a separate
-D argument, and give the target its own build directory
(build_clang_libcxx_cxx${CXX_STANDARD}) so it no longer shares a CMake
cache with the libstdc++ variant. Suppress the resulting
-Wthread-safety-negative finding from libc++'s std::mutex annotations,
which fires on doctest's reporters in this translation unit only.

* Remove the no-op AppVeyor with_win_header job

The with_win_header matrix entry patched Windows.h into
single_include/nlohmann/json.hpp before building, but JSON_MultipleHeaders
has defaulted to ON since #3532 (2022-06), so CMakeLists.txt points the
tests at include/ and the patched single header is never compiled. The
job has been a no-op VS2015 build since then.

Windows.h coverage already exists through tests/src/unit-windows_h.cpp
(#3631), which runs in every MSVC job. Delete the dead matrix entry and
its before_build steps, and cite unit-windows_h.cpp from the QA page.

* Remove unused ci_oclint and ci_pvs_studio targets

No workflow invokes ci_oclint, ci_pvs_studio, or their tool discovery.
ci_oclint also had a side effect on every JSON_CI configure: it copied
the single header into src_single/all.cpp and added an add_executable()
for it without EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL, so a plain build compiled a 1.2 MB
translation unit that only that unused target consumed. ci_pvs_studio
duplicates the Makefile's pvs_studio target, which is kept.

Also drop the duplicate --check-level=exhaustive flag passed twice to
the same ci_cppcheck invocation.

* Stop Dependabot from proposing astyle bumps

astyle is deliberately pinned at 3.4.13 because newer versions reformat
unrelated lines and this version defines the formatting that
check_amalgamation.yml enforces. Without an ignore rule, Dependabot
keeps opening PRs for every new astyle release (most recently #4580,
#4942, #5445, #5448), each of which fails the amalgamation check and
gets closed unmerged.

* Move Linux arm64 CI from dead Cirrus CI to ubuntu-24.04-arm

Cirrus CI stopped reporting check runs on develop sometime after
d10879bca (2026-05-26); every commit since has only github-actions
check runs, so .cirrus.yml silently lost its only consumer while
README.md, FILES.md and the QA page kept advertising the coverage.

Add a ci_test_arm64 job to ubuntu.yml using the same pinned
actions/checkout and lukka/get-cmake actions as the other jobs, on the
native ubuntu-24.04-arm runner, with a step that confirms uname -m
reports aarch64. Delete .cirrus.yml and its README badge and FILES.md
section, and update the QA page's arm64 row.

* Make scan-build fail on findings and drop irrelevant checkers (#5715 item 4a)

ci_clang_analyze ran scan-build without --status-bugs, so the job
passed whenever the ninja build succeeded, no matter what the
analyzer found ("No bugs found" in a green run gave no signal either
way). It is also missing --use-analyzer=${CLANG_TOOL}, so scan-build
picks whichever clang happens to be first on PATH inside the
silkeh/clang:dev container instead of the one this file already
selected and versioned.

Add --status-bugs and --use-analyzer=${CLANG_TOOL} to the scan-build
invocation. While here, drop the osx.*, webkit.*, fuchsia.*, and
optin.mpi.* checkers from CLANG_ANALYZER_CHECKS: none of them apply
to this portable C++ library, and leaving them enabled only adds
noise once the job can actually fail on a finding.

The job is currently clean (0 bugs), so this alone does not surface
any new finding; it only makes the existing "no bugs found" result
authoritative. This is 4a of 3 independent steps in #5715 item 4;
4b (Infer) and 4c (IWYU) still need their existing findings triaged
before --fail-on-issue/-Xiwyu --error can be added, and are handled
in separate commits.

* Deduplicate the amalgamation/format check's file set and add BUILD.bazel (#5715 item 5)

The amalgamation/format check existed three times with three different
file sets: the Makefile's pretty/check-amalgamation, the pull_request-only
check_amalgamation.yml workflow, and the ci_test_amalgamation CMake target
that also runs on direct pushes to develop/master/release/*. The CMake
target's glob was a strict subset of the workflow's (missing the
docs/mkdocs/docs/examples/*.hpp headers, tests/abi/, tests/cmake_*/project/,
tests/cuda_example/, tests/fmt_formatter/, and tests/module_cpp20/), and it
never checked BUILD.bazel at all, so a misformatted file in any of those
paths, or a stale BUILD.bazel, could reach develop through a direct push
even though the PR-only workflow would have caught it.

Make ci_test_amalgamation glob the same roots (docs/mkdocs/docs/examples,
include, tests) and extensions (*.hpp, *.cpp, *.cu) as check_amalgamation.yml,
excluding tests/thirdparty/ and tests/abi/include/nlohmann/ the same way, and
regenerate and diff BUILD.bazel next to json.hpp/json_fwd.hpp. Also add
docs/mkdocs/docs/examples/*.hpp to the Makefile's pretty/pretty_format
targets, which were missing the four custom_*_type.hpp example headers, and
drop the stale "called by Travis" comment on check-amalgamation (Travis is
gone; nothing currently calls that Makefile target from CI).

Leaves the workflow itself untouched: it deliberately runs amalgamate.py
from a fresh develop checkout so a PR cannot change the tool that checks it.

Overlaps #5610 and #5621, which each add a new amalgamated header and touch
the same INDENT_FILES/ci_test_amalgamation/check_amalgamation.yml hunks.

Verified with `make check-amalgamation` on this branch: clean, no diff.

* Download prebuilt CMake binaries on Linux x86_64 instead of building from source (#5715 item 6)

ci_get_cmake() downloaded the source tarball of CMake 3.5.0, 3.31.6, and
4.0.0 and compiled each one completely (including CMake's own test
helpers) with -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 as a workaround for
building old CMake with a newer one. On CI this made the
ci_cmake_options (ci_cmake_flags) job take about 11 minutes, most of it
spent building CMake itself, even though Kitware has published
ready-to-run Linux x86_64 archives for all three of these releases
since 3.20 (lowercase platform name).

On Linux x86_64, download and unpack the prebuilt
cmake-<version>-linux-x86_64.tar.gz archive instead and point the
existing ${var} output at its bin/cmake, skipping the configure/build
steps and CMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM entirely. Keep the previous
source build as a fallback for any other platform (macOS, Linux
aarch64), since Kitware does not publish binaries for every
CMake/platform combination this project might build on.

Verify the downloaded archive against Kitware's own published checksum
before unpacking it: download cmake-<version>-SHA-256.txt alongside the
archive and run `sha256sum -c` on the matching line. A CI job that wgets
and untars a binary from a release page with no integrity check is a
supply-chain gap; Kitware has published this file for every release
since 3.20, so checking it costs one extra download and one grep.

As a separate, mechanical change: the ci_cmake_options job's container
only needed to stay on ubuntu:focal for the source build's
libssl-dev dependency and its own aging toolchain; now that the
Linux/x86_64 path never compiles CMake, drop libssl-dev from its apt
install line and move the job to ubuntu:24.04 (Ubuntu 20.04 left
standard support in May 2025). ci_clean already removes the
cmake-3.5.0/cmake-3.31.6/cmake-4.0.0 directories from the #5715 item 3
fix, and the prebuilt path reuses those same directory names, so no
further cleanup changes are needed.

Overlaps #5598, which edits the same ci_cmake_options matrix line in
ubuntu.yml; a rebase may be needed once that lands.

Verified locally: `cmake -S . -B build -DJSON_CI=On` configures cleanly
on macOS/arm64 (source-build fallback branch) and on Linux/x86_64 in an
ubuntu:24.04 Docker container (47 `ci_cmake_flag_*` targets generated,
one built and run successfully); `.github/workflows/ubuntu.yml` still
parses as valid YAML; downloaded the real v3.31.6 Linux x86_64 archive
and SHA-256 file from Kitware and confirmed the `grep | sha256sum -c`
pipeline both accepts the genuine file and is anchored to the exact
filename (not a prefix match).

CI must confirm: the prebuilt-binary path actually runs on the
ubuntu-latest/ubuntu:24.04 x86_64 runner, all `ci_cmake_options`
entries still pass with the new container's GCC, and the job's
runtime drops from roughly 11 minutes.

* Make Infer fail on findings, with a type-level baseline for the ~174 pre-existing ones (#5715 item 4b)

ci_infer ran `infer run` without --fail-on-issue, so the job passed
regardless of what Pulse found; the last recorded run (35829411620,
commit 1054b2097) logged "Found 174 issues" and still went green.
report.txt was also never uploaded, so the full finding list was only
ever visible in the truncated 5-issue console excerpt.

Add a repository-root .inferconfig (auto-discovered by Infer; passing
--project-root on the `infer run` invocation makes sure it is found
even though the analysis runs from build/build_infer) that sets
fail-on-issue and disables the six PULSE issue types that made up all
174 findings in that run: PULSE_UNNECESSARY_COPY_ASSIGNMENT (129),
PULSE_UNNECESSARY_COPY (22), PULSE_UNNECESSARY_COPY_INTERMEDIATE (15),
PULSE_RESOURCE_LEAK (5), PULSE_CONST_REFABLE (2), and
PULSE_UNNECESSARY_COPY_OPTIONAL (1).

This is a deliberate, narrower fix than "triage and fix everything in
this PR": the visible sample is entirely doctest-macro copies in test
code (for example tests/src/unit-algorithms.cpp:141 and
tests/src/unit-bjdata.cpp:3706), but 169 of the 174 findings were never
uploaded anywhere and this PR cannot respectably claim to have fixed
issues it never saw, including the resource-leak and const-refable
ones that are the most likely to be genuine bugs. Disabling by issue
type is a coarser baseline than a per-finding one (Infer has no
built-in per-finding baseline short of the two-run `infer reportdiff`
workflow, which this repository does not have the CI infrastructure
for), but it has the same effect today: the job goes from always green
to green-only-when-clean-of-everything-else, so CI now fails the
moment a *new* issue type appears, and report.txt is uploaded as a
workflow artifact on every run (including failures) so the six
disabled types can be triaged and re-enabled incrementally in follow-up
PRs.

#5715 item 4b. 4a (scan-build) and 4c (IWYU) are handled in separate
commits.

Verified: .inferconfig parses as JSON, ubuntu.yml still parses as
YAML. Infer itself is not available in this environment (v1.3.0 tar.xz
requires a Linux x86_64 runner), so CI must confirm that `infer run
--project-root ... -- make` picks up .inferconfig, that fail-on-issue
takes effect, and that the six disabled types actually suppress the
existing findings without also hiding an unrelated new one.

* Fix IWYU findings for json.hpp/json_fwd.hpp/ordered_map.hpp and make CI fail on new ones (#5715 item 4c)

ci_single_binaries ran IWYU via CMake's CXX_INCLUDE_WHAT_YOU_USE launcher
property, which only printed "Warning: include-what-you-use reported
diagnostics" without failing the build: CMake's own __run_co_compile
wrapper does not propagate the launched tool's exit code, so even
`-Xiwyu --error` could never fail `cmake --build` this way. Verified
this empirically by injecting a deliberately-unused #include and
confirming the build still exited 0.

Fix the findings from the last recorded run (issue #5715 item 4, log
35829411620):
- ordered_map.hpp: add <new> (placement new) and
  nlohmann/detail/abi_macros.hpp; drop <memory> (std::allocator is
  still visible transitively via <vector>, confirmed by full local and
  containerized test suite runs).
- json_fwd.hpp: drop <memory> (same reasoning). Keep every forward
  declaration IWYU wanted removed (adl_serializer, basic_json,
  json_pointer, ordered_map): this file's only job is to forward-declare
  them for downstream users, so "nothing in this TU uses them" is
  expected, not a real finding. Mark each with `// IWYU pragma: keep`.
- json.hpp: add <cmath>, <cstdint>, <set>, <type_traits>,
  <unordered_map>, and the detail/abi_macros.hpp, detail/input/json_sax.hpp,
  detail/meta/detected.hpp, thirdparty/hedley/hedley.hpp includes IWYU
  says it needs. Do NOT remove adl_serializer.hpp,
  detail/conversions/from_json.hpp, detail/conversions/to_json.hpp,
  detail/macro_unscope.hpp, or ordered_map.hpp as IWYU suggests: nothing
  else in include/nlohmann includes adl_serializer.hpp or
  ordered_map.hpp, so basic_json<>'s own default template arguments
  (JSONSerializer = adl_serializer, and ordered_json = basic_json<ordered_map>)
  would lose their complete type; detail/macro_unscope.hpp is what
  undoes the JSON_* macros detail/macro_scope.hpp defines earlier in
  this same file, and removing it leaks those macros into every
  translation unit that includes <nlohmann/json.hpp>. Verified by
  actually removing them in a scratch test: the header still "compiles"
  stand-alone but ordered_json and every macro-using translation unit
  break. Marked each `// IWYU pragma: keep`.

Enforce it with `iwyu_tool` (ships with IWYU, e.g. as /usr/bin/iwyu_tool
on Debian/Ubuntu) instead of relying on the launcher property: it reads
compile_commands.json (now exported project-wide under JSON_CI) and
does return a real exit code for its own analysis, independent of
CMake's wrapper. ci_single_binaries now runs it over every
src_single/*.cpp with `-Xiwyu --error`, so a *new* finding fails CI.

json.hpp itself is excluded from that hard gate: even after every fix
above, IWYU's suggestion for one remaining symbol (a container
`swap, operator!=` used somewhere via a templated comparator) is not
deterministic — repeated, otherwise-identical containerized runs
reported <set>, then <unordered_map>, then <map> as "the" header to
add/remove for the exact same source. Gating a whole CI job on a
nondeterministic suggestion would make ci_single_binaries flaky rather
than informative, so json.hpp keeps the existing informational warning
(still shown during its normal compile) without failing the build on
it. Every other one of the ~50 single-header checks is included in the
hard gate.

#5715 item 4c. 4a (scan-build) and 4b (Infer) are separate commits.

Verified: full local ctest suite (129/129) and the ci_single_binaries
target itself both green in a containerized silkeh/clang:dev run
(matching the actual CI job) after this fix; a deliberately-reintroduced
unused #include in ordered_map.hpp was confirmed to fail
`cmake --build ... --target ci_single_binaries` (exit 2) with this
change, and to pass without it, on the same container/IWYU version CI
uses. `make check-amalgamation` is clean. Compiled with Clang and GCC
at -std=c++11/14/17/20 locally with no new warnings.

d268eaa693 Convert floats with Eisel-Lemire when std::from_chars is unavailable (#5617)
* Convert floats with Eisel-Lemire when std::from_chars is unavailable

Float tokens that Clinger's fast path cannot convert (e.g. the 17-digit
coordinates of canada.json) went to strtod unless std::from_chars was
available. It is not used in C++11/14, and not with libc++, which does not
define __cpp_lib_to_chars. The Eisel-Lemire algorithm (after fast_float's
compute_float) now converts them with integer arithmetic, correctly rounded
for any token with at most 19 significant digits. Longer tokens are
truncated; the result is used if w and w + 1 round alike, else strtod
decides as before. Overflow still yields infinity (out_of_range.406).

The table of powers of five (fast_float's) lives in pow5_table.hpp; a unit
test recomputes every entry with big-integer arithmetic. Further tests:
known values generated with Python (whose float() is correctly rounded),
200,000 round trips through to_chars, and the 128-bit multiplication and
leading-zero count against big-integer references (both with and without a
128-bit type). Checked against strtod on 6.5 million tokens, among them
60,000 exact halfway cases: no difference.

json::parse on canada.json: -8.6% (C++11), -7.6% (C++17, Apple clang);
other files unchanged. Compile time of a TU including json.hpp: +0.7%.

* Fix CI: unused parse result and find() == npos in the Eisel-Lemire tests

GCC (-Werror=unused-result) rejected CHECK_THROWS_WITH_AS(json::parse(...))
because parse() is [[nodiscard]]; assign the result to a dummy json as the
other tests do. clang-tidy flagged longer.find('.') == npos with
abseil-string-find-str-contains; store the position in a variable first.

1e101ecac1 Add BON8 support (#2998)
* Add BON8 support

Add to_bon8/from_bon8 and input_format_t::bon8 for BON8, a binary format
that uses the byte values that cannot begin a UTF-8 character as type
markers, so strings need no length prefix. It is the most compact of the
supported binary formats on the benchmark files.

The reader is non-recursive like the other binary readers. A string ends
at the first byte that cannot continue it, so the reader hands the one or
two bytes it reads past a string back to the value that follows. The
writer produces the canonical representation of the specification, except
for NFC normalization; its output is identical to that of the reference
implementation (HikoGUI) on all files of the test data.

The round-trip tests need the .bon8 files of json_test_data 3.2.0.

Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>

* Address review comments

- Reuse detail::validate_one_utf8 to check strings in to_bon8; the error
  now names the first byte of the invalid sequence.
- Document that to_bon8 leaves bytes in the output adapter on an
  exception, and that string_open is only an output of write_bon8_marker.

3.33 ms, jeopardy.json in 182 instead of 207 ms. canada.json, whose keys
are almost all one-digit array indices, takes 2 % longer.

* Move the explicit basic_json instantiation into its own test file

Linking test-regression3_cpp20 with clang and MinGW failed with
"relocation truncated to fit: IMAGE_REL_AMD64_REL32 against `.rdata'",
as test-regression2 did before #5511. The explicit instantiation of
basic_json<> for #4825 compiles every member function, including the
BON8 reader and writer, into that object, and it was already close to
the limit (2,226,104 bytes on develop, 2,234,960 with BON8; clang -O1,
C++20).

Give the instantiation a file of its own: unit-regression3 is now
1,594,736 bytes and unit-explicit_instantiation 1,095,064. The new file
mentions JSON_HAS_CPP_17 and JSON_HAS_CPP_20 so it keeps being built
for the C++17 standard the regression was about.

* Convert the bytes of the BON8 test strings explicitly

The str() helper constructed a std::string from a byte range, which
converts each unsigned char implicitly; -fsanitize=integer reports that
for bytes of 0x80 and above (ci_test_clang_sanitizer).

Answer the OpenSSF Best Practices criteria that asked for policies the
project follows but had not written down:

- SECURITY.md: a first response within 14 days, publishing an advisory
  with credit once a fix is released, and that only the latest release
  receives security fixes.
- Governance: who has access to the project's resources, how write or
  admin access is granted, and how CI secrets are stored and rotated.
- Quality assurance: how dependencies of the build, test, and
  documentation tooling are pinned, scanned, and kept free of known
  vulnerabilities.

Also update the assurance case, since comparison no longer recurses per
nesting level (#5390), and point the best practices badge and links to

* docs: document RFC 8259 / JSONTestSuite compliance and parse() vs operator>> strictness

The compliance story lived only in tests/src/unit-testsuites.cpp, so
drive-by comparisons kept claiming the library "does not fully pass
JSONTestSuite". Make it discoverable:

- README: add a "Standards compliance" note stating that both nst
  JSONTestSuite revisions run in CI, that all mandatory y_/n_ cases pass
  through the strict parse() entry point, and listing the deliberate
  implementation-defined i_ choices (unbounded nesting, silent BOM
  stripping, noncharacters forwarded, strict rejection of invalid UTF-8
  and lone surrogates, out_of_range.406 on numeric overflow).
- features/parsing: add a "Strictness and trailing data" section
  documenting that parse() is strict and rejects trailing data while
  operator>> follows relaxed iostream semantics (parses one value and
  leaves the stream positioned after it) -- the single place a naive
  test yields a "non-compliant" result.

Documentation only; no parser behavior change. Closes #5290.

* docs: correct test-data vendoring and parse()/operator>> claims per review

- README: the JSONTestSuite data is downloaded from nlohmann/json_test_data at
  configure time, not vendored/committed; say so.
- README: only the updated suite runs y_ and n_ cases through strict parse();
  the original suite's y_ cases go through operator>>. Narrow the claim.
- parsing/index.md and operator_gtgt.md: note that operator>> consumes a number's
  terminating byte, so concatenated numbers must be whitespace-separated (1 2
  works, 1true does not); structural and literal values are unaffected.
