The minus sign generated from arithmetic expansion is currently
unquoted which causes anomalies when the result is used in where
the quoting matters.
This patch fixes it by explicitly calling memtodest on the result
in cvtnum.

The variable localvar_stop is set iff vlocal is true. gcc doesn't
get this so we get a spurious warning.
This patch fixes this by always calling pushlocalvars with vlocal

Currently various paths will reprocess data when performing word
expansion. For example, expari will skip backwards looking for
the start of the arithmetic expansion, while evalvar will skip
unexpanded words manually.
This is cumbersome and error-prone. This patch fixes this by
making word expansions proceed in a linear fashion. This means
changing argstr and the various expansion functions such as expari
and subevalvar to return the next character to be expanded.
This is inspired by similar code from FreeBSD. However, we take
things one step further and completely remove the manual word
skipping in evalvar. This is accomplished by introducing a new
EXP_DISCARD flag that tells argstr to only parse and not produce
any actual expansions.
Incidentally, argstr will now always NUL-terminate the expansion
unless the EXP_WORD flag is set. This is because all but one
caller of argstr wants the result to be NUL-termianted.

When we are trimming an unset variable in evalvar, any embedded
command substitution that should have been skipped are not. This
can cause them to be evaluated later should there be other command
substitutions in the same input word.

The function arguments syntax and quotes are both derived from
the expansion flags. As syntax is only used by memtodest we do
not need to maintain it outside of the function at all.
The only place that uses something other than BASESYNTAX or DQSYNTAX
is exptilde. However in that case DQSYNTAX has exactly the same
effect as SQSYNTAX.
This patch merges these two arguments into a single flags. The
macro QUOTES_KEEPNUL has been renamed to EXP_KEEPNUL in order
to keep the namespace separate.

This patch replaces listsetvar with mklocal/setvareq. As we now
determine special built-in status prior to variable assignment, we
no longer have to do a second pass listsetvar. Instead we will
call setvareq directly instead of mklocal when necessary.
In order to do this mklocal can now take a flag in order to mark
a variable for export.

This patch adds assignment built-in support that used to exist

This patch changes the parsing of pathopt. First of all only
%builtin and %func (with arbitrary suffixes) will be recognised.
Any other pathopt will be treated as a normal directory.
Furthermore, pathopt can now be specified before the directory,
rather than after it. In fact, a future version may remove support
for pathopt suffixes.
Wherever the pathopt is placed, an optional % may be placed after
it to terminate the pathopt.
This is so that it is less likely that a genuine directory containing
a % sign is parsed as a pathopt.
Users of padvance outside of exec.c have also been modified:
1) cd(1) will always treat % characters as part of the path.
2) chkmail will continue to accept arbitrary pathopt.
3) find_dot_file will ignore the %builtin pathopt instead of trying
to do a stat in the accompanying directory (which is usually the
current directory).
The patch also removes the clearcmdentry optimisation where we
attempt to only partially flush the table where possible.

Many callers of padvance immediately free the allocated string
so this patch moves the stalloc call to the caller. Instead of
returning the allocated string, padvance now returns the length
to allocate (this may be longer than the actual string length,
even including the NUL). For the case where we would previously
return NULL, we now return -1.

The gotsigchld flag is always cleared in dowait but not all callers
of dowait will wait for everything. In particular, when jp is set
we only wait until the set job isn't running anymore.
This patch fixes this by only clearing gotsigchld if jp is unset.
It also changes the waitcmd to actually set jp which corresponds
to the behaviour of bash/ksh93/mksh.
The only other caller of dowait that doesn't wait for everything
is the jobless reaper. This is in fact redundant now that we wait
after every simple command. This patch removes it.
Finally as every caller of dowait needs to wait until either the
given job is not running, or until all terminated jobs have been
processed, this patch moves the loop into dowait itself.

Previously reset was called after exitshell. This was changed
so that it was called before exitshell because certain state needed
to be reset in order for the EXIT trap to work.
However, this caused issues because certain other states (such
as local variables) should not be reset. This patch fixes this
by creating a new function exitreset that is called prior to
exitshell and moving reset back to its original location.

Because of the nature of SIGCHLD, the process may have already been
waited on and therefore we must be prepared for the case that wait
may block. So ensure that it doesn't by using WNOHANG.
Furthermore, multiple jobs may have exited when gotsigchld is set.
Therefore we need to wait until there are no zombies left.
Lastly, waitforjob needs to be called with interrupts off and
the original patch broke that.

POSIX used to require the current dash behaviour. However, you're
right that this is no longer the case.
This patch will remove the persistence of the variable assignment.
I have considered the exporting the variables during the function
execution but have decided against it because:
1) It makes the code bigger.
2) dash has never done this in the past.
3) You cannot use this portably anyway.

The parsing of parameter expansion inside inner double quotes
breaks because we never look for ENDVAR while innerdq is true.
echo "${x#"${x+''}"''}

Here is a better example:
a="/*/\nullx" b="/*/\null"; printf "%s\n" $a $b
dash currently prints
/*/\nullx
/*/\null
bash prints
/*/\nullx
/dev/null
You may argue the bash behaviour is inconsistent but it actually
makes sense. What happens is that quote removal only applies to
the original token as seen by the shell. It is never applied to
the result of parameter expansion.
Now you may ask why on earth does the second line say "/dev/null"
instead of "/dev/\null". Well that's because it is not the quote
removal step that removed the backslash, but the pathname expansion.
The fact that the /de\v does not become /dev even though it exists
is just the result of the optimisation to avoid unnecessarily
calling stat(2). I have checked POSIX and I don't see anything
that forbids this behaviour.
So going back to dash yes I think we should adopt the bash behaviour
for pathname expansion and keep the existing case semantics.
This patch does exactly that. Note that this patch does not work
unless you have already applied
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10306507/
because otherwise the optimisation mentioned above does not get
detected correctly and we will end up doing quote removal twice.
This patch also updates expmeta to handle naked backslashes at
the end of the pattern which is now possible.

I've attached a patch which adds the subdir-objects option to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.
For a while now when I've compiled dash I received a warning from
automake that there are source files in a subdirectory but that the
subdir-objects automake option was not supplied. I've just been adding
it myself, but I finally got around to submitting a patch. The code
still compiles for now (i'm using automake 1.15.1), but warning text
is rarely nice to see and, if the warning text is to be believed, then
the warning will eventually become an error.

The native version of expandmeta allocates a buffer that may be
overrun for two reasons. First of all the size is 1 byte too small
but this is normally hidden because the minimum size is rounded
up to 2048 bytes. Secondly, if the directory level is deep enough,
any buffer can be overrun.

The commit d6c0e1e2ffbf7913ab69d51cc794d48d41c8fcb1 ("[BUILTIN]
Handle embedded NULs correctly in printf") caused a performance
regression in the echo built-in because every echo call now goes
through the printf %b slow path where the string is always printed
twice to ensure the space padding is correct in the presence of
NUL characters. In fact this regression applies to printf %b as
well.
This is easily fixed by making printf %b take the fast path when
no precision/field width modifiers are present.
This patch also changes the second strchurnul call to strspn which
generates slightly better code.

You're right. The proper fix to this is to ensure that nulonly
is not set in varvalue for $*. It should only be set for $@ when
it's inside double quotes.
In fact there is another bug while we're playing with $@/$*.
When IFS is set to a non-whitespace character such as :, $*
outside quotes won't remove empty fields as it should.
This patch fixes both problems.

This is actually composed of two bugs. First of all our tracking
of quotemark is wrong so anything after "$@" becomes quoted. Once
