2014-09-26[MAN] Clarify "trap '' signals" syntax in manual pageJonathan Nieder
When the manpage states | <action> may be null, which cause the specified signals to be ignored. it is not immediately obvious what it means for an action to be null. Clarify by explicitly referring to an empty string, as opposed to a NULL pointer or the string "null".

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>

2011-07-07[EVAL] Remove unused EV_BACKCMD flagJonathan Nieder
The original ash defered forking commands in backquotes so builtins could be run in the same context as the shell. This behavior was controlled using the EV_BACKCMD to evaltree. Unfortunately, as Matthias Scheler noticed in 1999 (NetBSD PR/7814), the result was counterintuitive; for example, echo "`cd /`" would change the cwd. So ash 0.3.5 left out that optimization. The EV_BACKCMD codepath stayed around, unused. Some time between ash 0.3.5-11 and ash 0.3.8-37, Debian ash omitted the EV_BACKCMD pathway by guarding it with #ifdef notyet. In dash 0.5.1 and later, the commented code is no more. Let's finish the job and remove the last vestiges. If someone wants to work on omitting the fork in backcmd, the remaining hints are not going to be very helpful, anyway.

Do a configure check for PRIdMAX and use it in the code. If it doesn't exist, define it to "lld" when sizeof(long long) equals sizeof(intmax_t) as this is more likely to work on older systems. Otherwise, use "jd" and hope for the best. - Older Solaris lacks stdint.h, but inttypes.h provides the same types and works on all platforms I've tried dash on, so just use it instead. - Older Solaris doesn't like it when vsnprintf() is passed a NULL buffer (in violation of the POSIX spec, of course).

2011-03-11[BUILTIN] Fix backslash handling in read(1)Herbert Xu
The new read(1) implementation incorrectly assumes that ifsbreakup ignores characters escaped by CTLESC. As such it fails to handle backslashes except for escaping newlines. This patch makes it use recordregion for every part that isn't escaped by a backslash. Reported-by: Jilles Tjoelker <jilles@stack.nl> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

Looking through "git log --patch src/main.c", though, I find v0.5.3~42 (Do not clobber exit status in dotcmd., 2005-03-03), which appears to have been meant to take care of the following case: $ cat printstatus.sh echo $? $ false $ . ./printstatus.sh 1 I wonder if the following on top might help (imitating evalcmd)?

2011-03-10[BUILTIN] Fix CTLESC clobbering by read(1)Herbert Xu
The changeset 55c46b7286f5d9f2d8291158203e2b61d2494420 [BUILTIN] Honor tab as IFS whitespace when splitting fields in readcmd uses CTLESC to prevent field splitting in read(1). However, it did not escape CTLESC itself in the input stream. This patch adds the necessary CTLESC characters so that CTLESC isn't corrupted.

2011-03-10[SHELL] Port to AIXBrian Koropoff
- AIX lacks a WCOREDUMP macro. It's just used to append "(core dumped)" to the crash message, so #ifdef around it. - For some reason, the nl program on AIX defaults to not printing line numbers ("-b n"), even though the spec says it should default to "-b t". Explicitly pass "-b a" for good measure in mkbuiltins. Signed-off-by: Brian Koropoff <bkoropoff@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2011-03-10[EXPAND] Do not split the result of tilde expansionJilles Tjoelker
A tilde expansion generates a valid pathname. Splitting it using IFS either leaves it unchanged or changes it to something unintended. This fixes FreeBSD sh test expansion/tilde1.0 and does not change the outcome of the other tests. This fixes Debian bug #601096. Example: IFS=m HOME=/tmp; printf "%s\n" ~ Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

In this case evalbackcmd occurs in the middle of an expansion (as it should) but the forked child never clears the previous IFS state. This patch adds the missing ifsfree call. This wasn't as much of a problem as the previously discovered leaks since all it means is that the child gets to carry around the parent's expansion state and the child is usually short-lived.

2010-11-28[BUILTIN] Use EXEXIT in place of EXEXECJonathan Nieder
The intended semantics of EXEXEC are identical to EXEXIT, so simplify by using EXEXIT directly. Functional change: in edge cases (exec within a trap handler), this causes the exit status from exec not to be clobbered. For example, without this patch: $ sh -c 'trap "exec nonexistent" EXIT'; echo $? exec: 1: nonexistent: not found 0 And with it: $ sh -c 'trap "exec nonexistent" EXIT'; echo $? exec: 1: nonexistent: not found 127 Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2010-11-28[MAN] Document optional open parenthesis for case patternsPhilipp Weis
While inspecting some dash scripts on my system, I was surprised to see that some of them use an open parenthesis at the beginning of case patterns while that's not mentioned in the manpage.
