* mkinit: Split reset into exitreset and resetHerbert Xu2018-05-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* jobs - Do not block when waiting on SIGCHLDHerbert Xu2018-05-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Fixes: 03876c0743a5 ("eval: Reap zombies after built-in...")

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.

* eval: Restore input files in evalcommandHerbert Xu2018-04-19
| | | | | | | | | When evalcommand invokes a command that modifies parsefile and then bails out without popping the file, we need to ensure the input file is restored so that the shell can continue to execute.

* eval: Reap zombies after built-in commands and functionsHerbert Xu2018-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently dash does not reap dead children after built-in commands or functions. This means that if you construct a loop consisting of solely built-in commands and functions, then zombies can hang around indefinitely. This patch fixes this by reaping when necessary after each built-in command and function.

* eval: Return status in eval functionsHerbert Xu2016-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | The exit status is currently clobbered too early for case statements and loops.

While the fix has been applied and does make dash handle empty files properly, your test doesn't use an empty file, it uses a file containing a single blank line. Unfortunately, the single blank line gets parsed by dash as a null command, null commands don't (and shouldn't) reset the exit status, and the fix you link to doesn't handle this because it sees a command has been executed and saves the exit status after executing that command as the exit status to be used by ".". I think the easiest way to fix this is to prevent null commands from affecting status in cmdloop, as attached. An alternative could be to change the outer if condition to exclude n == NULL, but I didn't do that because the change of job_warning and clearing of numeof make sense to me even for null commands. Besides, when debug tracing is enabled, null commands have a visible effect that should remain. Note that this fixes the problem with . but the same problem can be present in other locations. For example, false eval " " && echo OK || echo Fail used to print Fail, and needed the same modification in the evalstring function to make that print OK (included in the attached patch). There may be other similar bugs lurking. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* [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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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

* [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.

* [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>

* [EVAL] Remove unused EV_BACKCMD flagJonathan Nieder2011-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

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.

This bug was caused by the SKIPEVAL removal. When the SKIPEVAL hack was added to improve set -e support in traps, dotrap was changed to return whether set -e was detected. After the removal of SKIPEVAL, set -e is now handled through exraise. However, dotrap still returned a value which is now incorrectly used to trigger an exraise.

* [EVAL] Force fork if any trap is set, not just on EXITJilles Tjoelker2010-05-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some cases the shell executes a subshell or an external command in the current process. This is not done if a trap on EXIT has been set, so that that trap can execute after the subshell or external command has finished. Extend that check to all traps. (A trap is "set" if a non-empty command string has been attached to it.) Improve encapsulation by exporting an accessor function for this and making the trap array static again. This is much like FreeBSD SVN r194127, enhanced to apply to subshells also (see FreeBSD SVN r194774). Example: dash -c '{ trap "echo moo" TERM; sleep 3; }& sleep 1; kill $!;wait' This should print "moo" after 3 seconds. Example: dash -c '{ trap "echo moo" TERM; (sleep 3) }& sleep 1; kill $!;wait' The same. Example: dash -c '{ trap "echo moo" TERM; sleep 3; :; }& sleep 1; kill $!;wait' This works correctly even without this patch.

The built-in infrastructure has been changed to accomodate this special case. In order to ensure that the EXIT trap is properly executed this patch clears evalskip in exitshell.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hi, Herbert and friends. I've created a small patch that allows dash to be built on Mac OS X. I'm contributing it here with the hope that it's suitable for inclusion in dash. The changes in this patch are: - __attribute__((__alias__())) is not supported, add an autoconf check - open64 is not present although the stat64 family is, separate the autoconf checks - A syntax error had slipped into a non-glibc codepath - mkbuiltins had a nonportable mktemp invocation for the case where tempfile is not availalble Nothing in this patch is actually Mac OS X-specific, so it might aid portability to other platforms as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | The herefd hack goes back more than a decade. it limits the amount of memory we have to allocate when expanding here-documents by writing the result out from time to time. However, it's no longer safe because the stack is used to place intermediate results too and there we certainly don't want to write them out should we be short on memory. In any case, with today's computers we can afford to keep the entire result in memory and write them out at the end.
* [SHELL] Replace shared illnum message by badnum function.Herbert Xu2007-10-17
| | | | | | This patch adds the badnum function and uses it to mostly replace the use of illnum except in miscbltin where the current code turns out to be smaller because of the twin sh_error calls.
* [EXEC] Fixed execing of scripts with no hash-bangHerbert Xu2007-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function tryexec used the original name instead of the path found through PATH search. This patch fixes that. Test case: trap 'rm -f $TMP' EXIT TMP=$(tempfile -s nosuchthing) cat <<- EOF > $TMP echo OK EOF chmod u+x $TMP cd / PATH=${TMP%/*} ${TMP##*/} Old result: /bin/sh: Can't open filelgY4Fanosuchthing New result: OK
* [EXPAND] Move parse-time quote flag detection to run-timeHerbert Xu2007-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because the parser does not recursively parse parameter expansion with respect to quotes, we can't accurately determine quote status at parse time. This patch works around this by moving the quote detection to run-time where we do interpret it recursively. Test case: foo=\\ echo "<${foo#[\\]}>" Old result: <\> New result: <>
* [EVAL] Use dup2 instead of copyfd in evalbackcmdHerbert Xu2007-05-06
| | | | Since we know that dup2 must succeed here we can call it directly.
* [EVAL] Make eval with empty arguments return 0 Herbert Xu2006-01-12

This allows us to return zero if the string is empty.
* Copyright/licence updates and remove all traces of sys/cdefs.hHerbert Xu2005-10-29
| | | | | | | | | | | This change updates the BSD licence to the three-clause version since NetBSD has already done so. This makes dash GPL-compatible. It also adds Christos Zoulas (NetBSD ash maintainer) to the COPYING file. I've added "copyright by Herbert Xu" to most files. Finally all CVS IDs and inclusion of sys/cdefs.h have been removed. The latter is needed for support of klibc.
