* [BUILTIN] Optimise handling of backslash octals in printfHerbert Xu2014-10-27
| | | | | | | This patch removes the duplicate octal handling for %b by reusing the existing code in conv_escape. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* [BUILTIN] Use error instead of warnx for fatal errors in printfHerbert Xu2014-10-27
| | | | | | | | This patch replaces uses of warnx where we abort with error since the effect is the same. The exit status however changes from 1 to 2. Non-fatal errors where we continue are unchanged. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

Che vita intensa!" (Tonino Carotone) This patch fixes handling of embedded NULs using an approach similar to the one taken by NetBSD. In particular, we first determine the length of the output string, and then use a sequence of Xs of the same length as input to the underlying C printf to determine the amount of leading and trailing padding. Finally we replace the Xs with the actual string before writing it out. In order to print out the temporary string containing Xs and padding, a new helper xasprintf is added. Unlike asprintf though, our xasprintf prints to the ash stack rather than using straight malloc memory. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

* [CD] support drive letters on CygwinEric Blake2014-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Cygwin platform supports DOS style drive-letter paths such as "C:\\dir", even though the preferred form is a POSIX-style "/cygdrive/c/dir". This can be seen by doing things such as chdir("c:") (which succeeds) followed by getcwd(NULL, 0) (which returns the normalized "/cygdrive/c"). However, dash was trying to perform local manipulations on the argument to 'cd' prior to calling into libc, in order to update the state of $PWD and friends; these manipulations were assuming that the user meant to change to a relative subdirectory of the current location, as in './c:', instead of honoring the drive letter. None of the other dash builtins take a filename and manipulate it to affect shell state (some, like 'test', take a file name, but as stat("c:") works just fine, there is no need to normalize). This patch has no impact outside of cygwin; on cygwin, it takes advantage of a native function call to canonicalize any incoming name into preferred form before updating shell state.

* [BUILTIN] Return without arguments in a trap should use status outside trapsHerbert Xu2014-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | POSIX now requires that return without arguments in a trap should return the last command status prior to executing traps. This patch implements this behaviour. Incidentally this also changes the behaviour of return without arguments in a loop conditional to use the last exit status in the body as opposed to the last command in the conditional when there is one.

* [BUILTIN] Allow return in loop conditional to set exit statusHerbert Xu2014-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=332954 When return is used in a loop conditional the exit status will be lost because we always set the exit status at the end of the loop to that of the last command executed in the body. This is counterintuitive and contrary to what most other shells do. This patch fixes this by always preserving the exit status of return when it is used in a loop conditional.

* [EVAL] Do not clobber exitstatus in evalcommandHerbert Xu2014-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | All originators of EXERROR have been setting the exitstatus for a while now. So it is no longer appropriate to set it explicitly in evalcommand. In fact doing so may cause the original exitstatus to be lost. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* [ERROR] Set exitstatus in onintHerbert Xu2014-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the exit status when we receive SIGINT is set in evalcommand which means that it doesn't always get set. For example, if you press CTRL-C at the prompt of an interactive dash, the exit status is not set to 130 as it is in many other Bourne shells. This patch fixes this by moving the setting of the exit status into onint which also simplifies evalcommand. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* [TRAP] Make sure evalskip is zero before running trapsHerbert Xu2014-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As it is if dotrap is called with evalskip set to a nonzero value, it'll try to execute any set traps. The result is that the first command in the first set trap will be executed while the rest of the trap will be silently ignored due to evalskip. This is highly counterintuitive, even though both bash and ksh exhibit a similar behaviour. This patch fixes it by skipping trap processing if evalskip is set on entry. It also adds a dotrap call to the top of evaltree to ensure that while continue; do continue; done has a chance of running traps. Finally the pendingsigs check is moved into dotrap for compactness.

* [EVAL] Fix use-after-free in dotrap/evalstringHerbert Xu2014-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | The function dotrap calls evalstring using the stored trap string. If evalstring then unsets that exact trap string then we will end up using freed memory.

The number of allocated jobs is always kept as a multiple of four, and the first check in considering whether the job number is valid is "if it's greater than or equal to the number of allocated job, it's invalid". That doesn't look right. That would only be right if jobs were zero-based, but they aren't. If it's exactly equal to the number of available jobs, it can still be valid. It works when adding /bin/true, because four more more jobs end up allocated internally. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

Making sure that -p is respected even when -v is used is easy enough, see attached patch. Tested even with explicit PATH overrides: PATH=/path/to/some/other/dash command -pv dash correctly outputs /bin/dash on my system. > the path that 'command -p cmd' uses is a compiled-in constant > from dash's src/var.c:defpathvar, which starts with > "/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin". To me, that is both completely > unexpected and pretty scary -- /usr/local/bin is (very) often less > well secured or checked than, say, /bin: Agreed. However, IMO, it does make sense for defpathvar to start with /usr/local/*: it has two separate functions, it also serves as the default path (hence the name) when dash is started with no PATH set at all. I think fixing this should be done in a way so that command -p does not use defpathvar, not by changing defpathvar. bash uses the same confstr function for this that getconf uses, and it shouldn't be too much work to make dash use that too. If no one else comes up with a working patch or a better approach, I'll try to get that working. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

Here's a slightly tweaked version of that patch. Regardless of whether PRIdMAX is defined as "jd" or as "lld", the use of memcpy here, first copying "jd"/"lld" and the null byte, and only changing the 'd' after that, surprisingly results in slightly shorter object code than the original byte-by-byte approach, even though memcpy is fully inlined. Perhaps that could be a reason for applying this, even if the original reason for it, making the code work on not-quite-conforming systems, isn't good enough to get it in dash. Tested with normal glibc, and with glibc hacked to not provide PRIdMAX. Reviewed-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

* [ARITH] Avoid imaxdiv when only one of the results is wantedHarald van Dijk2011-08-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | dash rather pointlessly calls imaxdiv, only to discard one of its results. The call was already made conditional a while back because some systems don't have imaxdiv, but the generated code for the version with imaxdiv and the one with / and % is identical (with GCC 4.6.1 or ICC 12.0.2, with -O0, -O2 or -Os), so it could just as well go entirely to clean up the code a little bit.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dash didn't compile in DEBUG mode against klibc for all long time. Now it only fails at link stage for not having setlinebuf(3) and freopen(3).

* [BUILTIN] Merge SKIPFUNC/SKIPFILE and only clear SKIPFUNC when leaving dotcmdHerbert Xu2011-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently upon leaving a dotcmd the evalskip state is reset so if a continue/break statement is used within a dot script it would have no effect outside of the dot script. This is inconsistent with other shells. This patch is based on one by Jilles Tjoelker and only clears SKIPFUNC when leaving a dot script. As a result continue/break will remain in effect. It also merges SKIPFUNC/SKIPFILE as they have no practical difference. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
