parser: Support 'System' timezone in Time_Offset #7994

SijmenHuizenga · 2023-09-30T18:21:41Z

This introduces the System choice for the Time_Offset parser option. This new option uses the system timezone to automatically compute the UTC offset. This resolves #593.

To test this change I had to fix a few bugs in the unit tests related to time-offset-parsing. These bug fixes are included in this pr. See individual commits for the individual bug fixes.

This implementation is inspired by #4849

Thank you for doing this, I hope a maintainer accepts this change.

Probably worth doing a strncmp here instead of just checking the first character.

I think it would be nicer if mock_timezone returned an int with success, and took a pointer to where the original timezone should be returned. Then instead of doing perror and exit here, the test can see a -1 from this function and go through the existing acutest failure pattern.

what does strduping the string into itself do?

It's up to you, but imo it's easier to keep track of frees if they happen in the same scope as the allocation. I think it would make more sense if undo_mock_timezone wasn't in charge of freeing original_tz, and instead the test did this after using it to undo the mock timezone.

This only works for timezones that don't have DST; you need to calculate the offset for the timestamp of each record, not just capture the current offset at process start time. Different log entries will have different offsets because of DST.

That one isn't moving either though. I'll ping maintainers to see if we can get some movement on it.
