[[ ... ]]: fix '!' to negate another '!'
Bug: [[ ! ! 1 -eq 1 ]] returns false, but should return true. This bug was reported for bash, but ksh has it too: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2021-06/msg00006.html Op 24-05-21 om 17:47 schreef Chet Ramey: > On 5/22/21 2:45 PM, Vincent Menegaux wrote: >> Previously, these commands: >> >> [[ ! 1 -eq 1 ]]; echo $? >> [[ ! ! 1 -eq 1 ]]; echo $? >> >> would both result in `1', since parsing `!' set CMD_INVERT_RETURN >> instead of toggling it. > > Interestingly, ksh93 produces the same result as bash. I agree > that it's more intuitive to toggle it. Also interesting is that '!' as an argument to the simple 'test'/'[' command does work as expected (on both bash and ksh93): 'test ! ! 1 -eq 1' and '[ ! ! 1 -eq 1 ]' return 0/true. Even the man page for [[ is identical for bash and ksh93: | ! expression | True if expression is false. This suggests it's supposed to be a logical negation operator, i.e. '!' is implicitly documented to negate another '!'. Bolsky & Korn's 1995 ksh book, p. 167, is slightly more explicit about it: "! test-expression. Logical negation of test-expression." I also note that multiple '!' negators in '[[' work as expected on mksh, yash and zsh. src/cmd/ksh93/sh/parse.c: test_primary(): - Fix bitwise logic for '!': xor the TNEGATE bit into tretyp instead of or'ing it, which has the effect of toggling it.

- Fixed a bug in the [[ compound command: the '!' logical negation operator
|
||||
now correctly negates another '!', e.g., [[ ! ! 1 -eq 1 ]] now returns
|
||||
0/true. Note that this has always been the case for 'test'/'['.

- Fixed SHLVL so that replacing ksh by itself (exec ksh) will not increase it.
