Support for the long-dead 3DFS userland versioning file system was
already removed from ksh93 (although I'd overlooked some minor
things), but libast still supported it. This removes that too.
src/lib/libast/include/fs3d.h,
src/lib/libast/man/fs3d.3,
src/lib/libast/misc/fs3d.c:
- Removed.
bin/package,
src/cmd/INIT/package.sh:
- Remove attempted use of removed vpath builtin.
src/cmd/ksh93/*:
- Remove minor 3dfs vestiges.
src/lib/lib{ast,cmd,coshell}/*:
- Remove code supporting 3dfs.
This commit backports the main changes to sh_delay from ksh93v-
and ksh2020, which fixes the following bugs:
- Microsecond amounts of less than one millisecond are no longer
ignored. The following loop will now take a minimum of one
second to complete:
for ((i = 0; i != 10000; i++)) do
sleep PT100U
done
- 'sleep 30' no longer adds an extra 30 milliseconds to the total
amount of time to sleep. This bug is hard to notice since 30
milliseconds can be considered within the margin of error. The
only reason why longer delays weren't affected is because the old
code masked the bug when the interval is greater than 30 seconds:
else if(n > 30)
{
sleep(n);
t -= n;
}
This caused 'sleep -s' to break with intervals greater than 30
seconds, so an actual fix is used instead of a workaround.
- 'sleep -s' now functions correctly with intervals of more than
30 seconds as the new code doesn't need the old workaround. This
is done by handling '-s' in sh_delay.
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/sleep.c:
- Remove the replacement for sleep(3) from the sleep builtin.
- Replace the old sh_delay function with the newer one from ksh2020.
The new function uses tvsleep, which uses nanosleep(3) internally.
src/cmd/ksh93/include/shell.h,
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/jobs.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/shell.3:
- Update sh_delay documentation and usage since the function now
requires two arguments.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/builtins.sh:
- Add a regression test for 'sleep -s' when the interval is greater
than 30 seconds. The other bugs can't be tested for in a feasible
manner across all systems:
https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/pull/72#issuecomment-657215616
With this change no more preset aliases exist, so the preset alias
tables can be safely removed. All ksh commands can now be used
without 'unalias -a' removing them, even in interactive shells.
Additionally, the history and r commands are no longer limited to
being used in interactive shells.
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/hist.c:
- Implement the history and r commands as builtins. Also guarantee
lflag is set to one by avoiding 'lflag++'.
src/cmd/ksh93/Makefile,
src/cmd/ksh93/Mamfile,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/main.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/init.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/data/aliases.c:
- Remove the table of predefined aliases because the last few have
been removed. During init the alias tree is now initialized the
same way as the function tree.
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/typeset.c:
- Remove the bugfix for unsetting predefined aliases because it is
now a no-op. Aliases are no longer able to have the NV_NOFREE
attribute.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/alias.sh:
- Remove the regression test for unsetting predefined aliases since
those no longer exist.
src/cmd/ksh93/data/builtins.c:
- Update sh_opthist[] for 'hist --man', etc.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh.1:
- Remove the list of preset aliases since those no longer exist.
- Document history and r as builtins instead of preset aliases.

These two default aliases are useful on interactive shells. In
scripts, they interfere with possible function or command names.
As of this commit, these final two default aliases are only loaded
for interactive shells, leaving zero default aliases for scripts.
This completes the project to get rid of misguided default aliases.
src/cmd/ksh93/include/shtable.h,
src/cmd/ksh93/data/aliases.c:
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/init.c:
- Add empty alias table shtab_noaliases[] for scripts.
- Rename inittree() to sh_inittree() and make it external.
- nv_init(), sh_reinit(): Initialise empty alias tree for scripts.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/main.c: sh_main():
- If interactive, reinitialise alias tree for interactive shells.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/alias.sh:
- To test default alias removal, launch shell with -i.
In a locale other than C/POSIX, ksh produces corrupted usage
messages for alternatives, e.g. this output of 'typeset -\?':
| Usage: typeset [-bflmnprstuxACHS] [-a[type]] [-i[base]] <..CUT..>
| [-T[tname]] [-Z[n]] [name[=value]...]
| Or:[name[=value]...]
| typeset[name[=value]...]
| [[name[=value]...]
| options[name[=value]...]
| ] -f [name...]
Correct output is:
| Usage: typeset [-bflmnprstuxACHS] [-a[type]] [-i[base]] <..CUT..>
| [-T[tname]] [-Z[n]] [name[=value]...]
| Or: typeset [ options ] -f [name...]
Similar corruption occurs in --help and --man output.
This bug is ancient: it's already in ksh 1993-12-28 s+.
ksh2020 has this fixed. A 'git bisect' run pinpointed the fix
to this commit, which fixes the ERROR_translating macro after
removing the AST-specific locale subsystem:
https://github.com/att/ast/commit/4abc061e
But making the same change in ksh 93u+m produced no results
(probably because we have not removed that subsystem).
However, disabling the use of translation macros in optget.sh
altogether (replacing them with dummies that were already coded in
a preprocessor directive fallback for a reduced standalone libast)
turns out to work. It's not as if there is actually any translation
anyway, so this effectively fixes this bug.
The actual cause of this bug remains mysterious, but should be
somewhere in the AST translation and/or locale subsystem.
src/lib/libast/misc/optget.c:
- Use fallback translation macros.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/builtins.sh:
- Add regression tests for output of -?, --?x, --help and --man
for a usage string with an alternative ("Or:") usage message.
Before the fix, these failed when running the tests in the
C.UTF-8 locale (as in 'bin/shtests -u builtins').
A regression test failure was occurring on FreeBSD for
bin/shtests -u builtins
because UTF-8 characters were wrongly encoded as bytes in the
C.UTF-8 locale. The cause is that iswprint() always returns false
on FreeBSD if the ksh-specific C.UTF-8 locale is active, as the OS
doesn't support it.
That iswprint() call is redundant anyway; the new is_invisible()
function now handles this.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/string.c: sh_fmtq():
- Remove redundant iswprint() test.
Many terminals (xterm being one example) give the Home and End keys
the escape sequences '^[[H' and '^[[F'. The first sequence is
handled in both editing modes by moving the cursor to start of
line, but ksh ignored the second sequence.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/vi.c:
- Add case labels for '^[[F' so that in both editing modes the End
key moves the cursor to the end of the line.
This converts the 'autoload', 'compound', 'float', 'functions',
'integer' and 'nameref' default aliases into regular built-in
commands, so that 'unalias -a' does not remove them. Shell
functions can now use these names, which improves compatibility
with POSIX shell scripts.
src/cmd/ksh93/data/aliases.c:
- Remove default typeset aliases.
src/cmd/ksh93/data/builtins.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/include/builtins.h:
- Add corresponding built-in command declarations. Typeset-style
commands are now defined by a pointer range, SYSTYPESET ..
SYSTYPESET_END. A couple need their own IDs (SYSCOMPOUND,
SYSNAMEREF) for special-casing in sh/xec.c.
- Update 'typeset --man'.
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/typeset.c: b_typeset():
- Recognise the new builtin commands by argv[0]. Implement them by
inserting the corresponding 'typeset' options into the argument
list before parsing options. This may seem like a bit of a hack,
but it is simpler, shorter, more future-proof and less
error-prone than manually copying and adapting all the complex
flaggery from the option parsing loop.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/parse.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c:
- Recognise typeset-style commands by SYSTYPESET .. SYSTYPESET_END
pointer range.
- Special-case 'compound' (SYSCOMPOUND) and 'nameref' (SYSNAMEREF)
along with recognising the corresponding 'typeset' options.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh.1:
- Update to document the new built-ins.
- Since not all declaration commands are special built-ins now,
identify declaration commands using a double-dagger "\(dd"
character (which renders as '=' in ASCII) and disassociate their
definition from that of special built-ins.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/variables.sh:
- Adapt a regression test as there is no more 'integer' alias.
Now that we have an iffe feature test for getrusage(3), introduced
in 70fc1da7, the millisecond-precision 'times' command from the
last version of ksh2020 can easily be backported.
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/misc.c:
- Incorporate ksh2020 'times' command, with a couple of tweaks:
* Use locale's radix point instead of '.'.
* Pad seconds with initial zero if < 10.
src/cmd/ksh93/data/builtins.c:
- Update version date for 'times --man'.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/builtins.sh:
- Update 'times' test for 3 digits after radix point.
The backported 'time' keyword code introduced a bug (shared by
ksh2020): the $TIMEFORMAT format sequences %0R, %0U and %0S output
a decimal fraction, acting as %1R, %1U and %1S.
A minor ksh2020 behaviour change that was also backported was that
the $TIMEFORMAT formatting no longer errored out on encountering an
invalid identifier, but continued. That behaviour is now reverted.
Neither of these two regressions occurred on older systems that
have to use times(3) instead of getrusage(2) or gettimeofday(2).
This commit also tweaks a regression test so that it doesn't fail
if the old times(3) interface is used.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c: p_time():
- (Fix indentation of a for loop.)
- On modern systems, when outputting the result of $TIMEFORMAT
format sequences, only print fraction if precision is nonzero.
- On modern systems, when encountering an invalid format sequence,
abort formatting in the same way as done for old systems.
- On old systems, initialise 'n' in a more readable way when used
as the index for tm[].
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/basic.sh:
- Don't fail, but issue warning on old systems that use times(3).
Otherwise, check milliseconds: with the ksh 'sleep' builtin,
'TIMEFORMAT=%3R; time sleep .002' should always output '0.002'.
- Change regression test for TIMEFORMAT='%0S%' to check for the
correct output, '0%', instead of checking for an error message.
This commit backports the required fixes from ksh2020 for using
millisecond precision with the 'time' keyword. The bugfix refactors
a decent amount of code to rely on the BSD 'timeradd' and
'timersub' macros for calculating the total amount of time elapsed
(as these aren't standard, they are selectively implemented in an
iffe feature test for platforms without them). getrusage(3) is now
preferred since it usually has higher precision than times(3) (the
latter is used as a fallback).
There are three other fixes as well:
src/lib/libast/features/time:
- Test for getrusage with an iffe feature test rather than
assume _sys_times == _lib_getrusage.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c:
- A single percent at the end of a format specifier is now
treated as a literal '%' (like in Bash).
- Zero-pad seconds if seconds < 10. This was already done for
the times builtin in commit 5c677a4c, although it wasn't
applied to the time keyword.
- Backport the ksh2020 bugfix for the time keyword by using
timeradd and timersub with gettimeofday (which is used with
a timeofday macro). Prefer getrusage when it is available.
- Allow compiling without the 'timeofday' ifdef for better
portability.
This is the order of priority for getting the elapsed time:
1) getrusage (most precise)
2) times + gettimeofday (best fallback)
3) only times (doesn't support millisecond precision)
This was tested by using debug '#undef' statements in xec.c.
src/cmd/ksh93/features/time:
- Implement feature tests for the 'timeradd' and 'timersub'
macros.
- Do a feature test for getrusage like in the libast time test.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/basic.sh:
- Add test for millisecond precision.
- Add test for handling of '%' at the end of a format specifier.
- Add test for locale-specific radix point.
'set -b' had no effect; it should cause the shell to notify job
state changes immediately instead of waiting for the next prompt.
This fixes a regression that was introduced in ksh93t 2008-07-25.
The bugfix is from: https://github.com/att/ast/pull/1089
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/jobs.c:
- Save the tty wait state and avoid changing it if TTYWAIT was
already on to avoid breaking 'set -b'.
The last 'sh_offstate' is inside of an '#if' directive because it
is only required when ksh is compiled with SHOPT_COSHELL enabled.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- Add a regression test for 'set -b' in interactive shells.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- init: Remove superfluous lineno=$LINENO assignments. They aren't
needed if we avoid alias expansion on the err_exit function call.
- In the test "vi mode file name completion", append the main
shell's PID to /tmp/fakehome to make a slightly less insecure
temporary directory name. Unfortunately we cannot use $tmp as
that uses $TMPDIR which may cause a false pass. (re: 4cecde1d)
Apparently, on FreeBSD, the stty command does not work correctly
for setting 'erase' or 'kill' on a pty pseudoterminal. I've no
idea whether the bug is in FreeBSD stty or in AST pty, but in any
case, a workaround is needed for the time being.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- Save terminal state on init; set a trap to restore it on exit.
- Issue 'stty erase ^H kill ^X' on the real terminal before
entering pty pseudoterminals.
Resolves#44.
For unknown reasons, the test for a memory leak in 'read -C stat
<<< "$data"' can show an intermittent minor variation in memory
usage when run with shcomp on certain versions of macOS.
The reported variations are 48 bytes or 80 bytes. This is too small
to be the result of an actual memory leak in the tested command;
it is repeated 500 times so that any real leak should show a
difference of at least 500 bytes.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/leaks.sh:
- Add a tolerance of 128 bytes to get rid of the false failure.
Fixes#70 (hopefully).
This applies ksh-20100621-fdstatus.patch from Red Hat. Not very
much information is available, so this one is more or less taken
on faith. But it seems to make sense on the face of it: calling
sh_fcntl() instead of fcntl(2) directly makes the shell update its
internal file descriptor state more frequently.
It claims to fix Red Hat bug 924440. The report is currently closed
to the public: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=924440
However, Kamil Dudka at Red Hat writes:
https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/67#issuecomment-656379993

...and Marc Wilson dug up a Red Hat erratum containing this info:

No reproducer means no regression test can be added now.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/io.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/subshell.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c:
- Change several fcntl(2) calls to sh_fcntl(). This function calls
fcntl(2) and then updates the shell's file descriptor state.
Type names that start with a lowercase 'a' cause an error when used:
$ typeset -T al=(typeset bar)
$ al foo=(bar=testset)
/usr/bin/ksh: al: : invalid variable name
The error occurs because when the parser checks for the alias
builtin (to set 'assignment' to two instead of one), only the first
letter of 'argp->argval' is checked (rather than the entire
string). This was fixed in ksh93v- by comparing argp->argval
against "alias", but in ksh93u+m the check can simply be removed
because it is only run when a builtin has the BLT_DCL flag. As of
04b9171, the alias builtin does not have that flag.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/parse.c:
- Remove the bugged check for the alias builtin.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/types.sh:
- Add a regression test for type names starting with a lowercase 'a'.
This fixes an annoying issue in the shell's quoting algorithm
(used for xtrace (set -x), printf %q, and other things) for UTF-8
locales, that caused it to encode perfectly printable UTF-8
characters unnecessarily and inconsistently. For example:
$ (set -x; : 'aeu aéu')
+ : $'aeu a\u[e9]u'
$ (set -x; : 'aéu aeu')
+ : 'aéu aeu'
$ (set -x; : '正常終了 aeu')
+ : '正常終了 aeu'
$ (set -x; : 'aeu 正常終了')
+ : $'aeu \u[6b63]\u[5e38]\u[7d42]\u[4e86]'
This issue was originally reported by lijo george in May 2017:
https://www.mail-archive.com/ast-developers@lists.research.att.com/msg01958.html
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/string.c:
- Add is_invisible() function that returns true if a character is a
Unicode invisible (non-graph) character, excluding ASCII space.
Ref.: https://unicode.org/charts/PDF/U2000.pdf
- Use a fallback in is_invisible() if we cannot use the system's
iswprint(3); this is the case for the ksh C.UTF-8 locale if the
OS doesn't support that. Fall back to a hardcoded blacklist of
invisible and control characters and put up with not encoding
nonexistent characters into \u[xxxx] escapes.
Ref.: https://unicode.org/charts/PDF/U2000.pdf
- When deciding whether to switch to $'...' quoting mode (state=2),
use is_invisible() instead of testing for ASCII 0-127 range.
- In $'...' quoting mode, use is_invisible() to decide whether to
encode wide characters into \u[xxxx] escapes.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/builtins.sh:
- Add regression tests for shellquoting Arabic, Japanese and Latin
UTF-8 characters, to be run only in a UTF-8 locale. The Arabic
sample text[*] contains a couple of direction markers that are
expected to be encoded into \u[xxxx] escapes.
[*] source: https://r12a.github.io/scripts/tutorial/summaries/arabic
The ksh -R option creates a cross-reference database that can be
parsed with a "C Query Language" (CQL) tool.
See cql-1994.pdf at: http://gsf.cococlyde.org/files
The -R option puts ksh in noexec mode as it parses the script, and
this can produce warnings as the syntax is parsed. The bug is that
these warnings can end up in the database file, corrupting it.
This applies a fix from Paulo Andrade, via Siteshwar Vashisht:
https://www.mail-archive.com/ast-developers@lists.research.att.com/msg01952.html
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/parse.c:
- Terminate names with a zero character when writing database
output.
A regression test is not very feasible because the majority of the
database output consists of cryptic IDs/hashes that vary depending
on the session and/or system and possibly other things.
This bugfix was backported from ksh93v- 2013-10-10-alpha.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/parse: item():
- The done label is placed after the 'inout' call for handling I/O
redirections. This causes the command below to produce a syntax
error because the '>' is not handled as a redirection operator
after 'goto done':
$ ((1+2)) > /dev/null
/usr/bin/ksh: syntax error: `>' unexpected
Moving the done label fixes the syntax error as 'inout' is now
called to handle the redirection operator.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/arith.sh:
- Add a simple regression test.
There is a bug in path_alias() that may cause a memory leak when
clearing the hash table while setting/restoring PATH.
This applies a fix from Siteshwar Vashist:
https://www.mail-archive.com/ast-developers@lists.research.att.com/msg01945.html
Note that, contrary to Siteshwar's analysis linked above, this bug
has nothing directly to do with subshells, forked or otherwise; it
can also be reproduced by temporarily setting PATH for a command,
for example, 'PATH=/dev/null true', and then doing a PATH search.
Modified analysis:
ksh maintains the value of PATH as a linked list. When a local
scope for PATH is created (e.g. in a virtual subshell or when doing
something like PATH=/foo/bar command ...), ksh duplicates PATH by
increasing the refcount for every element in the linked list by
calling the path_dup() and path_alias() functions. However, when
the state of PATH is restored, this refcount is not decreased. Next
time when PATH is reset to a new value, ksh calls the path_delete()
function to delete the linked list that stored the older path. But
the path_delete() function does not free elements whose refcount is
greater than 1, causing a memory leak.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/path.c: path_alias():
- Decrease refcount and free old item if needed.
(The 'old' variable was already introduced in 99065353, but
its value was never used there; this fixes that as well.)
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/leaks.sh:
- Add regression test. With the bug, setting/restoring PATH
(which clears the hash table) and doing a PATH search 16 times
causes about 1.5 KiB of memory to be leaked.
There is a bug in print_scan() function that may cause ksh to crash
while listing indexed arrays. The crash happens in nv_search() when
called from print_scan().
This applies a fix from Siteshwar Vashist:
https://www.mail-archive.com/ast-developers@lists.research.att.com/msg01944.html
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/typeset.c:
- Call nv_scan() without the NV_IARRAY flag, even for a null scan.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/arrays.sh:
- Add regression test for 'typeset -a' crash and check output.
There is a bug in sh_eval() that may cause ksh to crash due to a
double free() after sourcing multiple files with '.' or 'source'
if a longjmp is triggered, e.g. by a syntax error.
This applies a fix from Siteshwar Vashist:
https://www.mail-archive.com/ast-developers@lists.research.att.com/msg01943.html
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c: sh_eval():
- Zero file descriptor io_save after closing it. This prevents a
double free() after returning from a longjmp.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/basic.sh:
- Add reproducer as regression test.
This shows a better layout in '--man' or '--nroff' output.
src/lib/libast/misc/optget.c:
- Incorporate the '--help | --man' addition in the printf format
instead of hardcoding it in the default options string.
This commit changes the behavior of four date formats accepted
by 'printf %()T' because the old behavior is not compatible with
modern implementations of date(1):
- %k and %l now return a blank-padded hour, the former based on a
24-hour clock and the latter a 12-hour clock (these are common
extensions present on Linux and *BSD).
- %f now returns a date with the format '%Y.%m.%d-%H:%M:%S'
(BusyBox extension).
- %q now returns the quarter of the current year (GNU extension).
src/cmd/ksh93/data/builtins.c:
- Copy the date format documentation from date in libcmd to
the printf man page (for documenting 'printf %T').
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/builtins.sh:
- Add four regression tests for the changed date formats.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh.1:
- Remove inaccurate information about the date formats accepted by
printf %T'. The KornShell uses a custom version of strftime(3)
that isn't guaranteed to accepts the same formats as the native
strftime function.
src/lib/libast/tm/tmxfmt.c:
- Change the behavior of %f, %k, %l and %q to the common behavior.
%k and %l are implemented as aliases to %_H and %_I to avoid
duplicating code.
src/lib/libcmd/date.c:
- Update the documentation for the AST date command since it is
also affected by the changes to 'printf %T'.
Fixes#62
Associative arrays weren't being properly freed from memory, which
was causing a memory leak.
This commit incorporates a patch and reproducer/regress test from:
https://www.mail-archive.com/ast-users@lists.research.att.com/msg01016.html
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/name.c:
- Properly free associative arrays from memory in nv_delete().
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/leaks.sh:
- Add regression test.
'ps' does not always give reliable results; on macOS, 'ps' appears
to produce nondeterministic (i.e. randomly varying) results for
'vsz' and 'rss', making it unusable for memory leak tests. See:
https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/pull/64#issuecomment-655094931
and further comments.
So let's compile in the vmstate builtin so that we can make sure to
measure things properly. It also reports bytes instead of 1024-byte
blocks, so smaller leaks can be detected.
To be decided: whether or not to disable the vmstate builtin for
release builds in order to save about 12K in the ksh binary.
src/cmd/ksh93/data/builtins.c:
- Add vmstate to the list of builtins that are compiled in.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/leaks.sh:
- getmem(): get size using: vmstate --format='%(busy_size)u'
(Using busy_size instead of size seems to make more sense as it
excludes freed blocks. See vmstate --man)
- Introduce a $unit variable for reporting leaks and set it to
'bytes'; this makes it easier to change the unit in future.
- Since the tests are now more sensitive, initialise all variables
before use to avoid false leak detections.
- The last test seemed to need a few more 'read' invocations in
order to get memory usage to a steady state before the test.
The following set of commands can rarely cause a memory fault
when auditing[*] is enabled, although most of the time it will
simply cause ksh to write '(null)' to the auditing file in place
of a tty name:
$ [ -e /etc/ksh_audit ] || echo "/tmp/ksh_auditfile;$(id -u)" | sudo tee /etc/ksh_audit;
$ v=$(ksh 2> /dev/null +o rc -ic $'getopts a:bc: opt --man\nprint $?')
$ cat /tmp/ksh_auditfile
1000;1593599493;(null); getopts a:bc: opt --man
This happens because strdup is used unconditionally on the pointer
returned by 'ttyname', which can be NULL if stderr is closed. This
then causes 'hp->tty' to be set to null, as strdup returns NULL.
See https://github.com/att/ast/issues/1028
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/history.c:
- Make strdup duplicate 'notty' instead of NULL to prevent
crashes.

If the processing of a multibyte character was interrupted in UTF-8
locales, e.g. by reading just one byte of a two-byte character 'ü'
(\303\274) with a command like:
print -nr $'\303\274' | read -n1 g
then the shellquoting algorithm was corrupted in such a way that
the final quote in simple single-quoted string was missing. This
bug may have had other, as yet undiscovered, effects as well. The
problem was with corrupted multibyte character processing and not
with the shell-quoting routine sh_fmtq() itself.
Full trace and discussion at: https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/5
(which is also an attempt to begin to understand the esoteric
workings of the libast mb* macros that process UTF-8 characters).
src/lib/libast/comp/setlocale.c: utf8_mbtowc():
- If called from the mbinit() macro (i.e. if both pointer
parameters are null), reset the global multibyte character
synchronisation state variable. This fixes the problem with
interrupted processing leaving an inconsistent state, provided
that mbinit() is called before processing multibyte characters
(which it is, in most (?) places that do this). Before this fix,
calling mbinit() in UTF-8 locales was a no-op.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/string.c: sh_fmtq():
- Call mbinit() before potentially processing multibyte characters.
Testing suggests that this could be superfluous, but at worst,
it's harmless; better be sure.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/builtins.sh:
- Add regression test for shellquoting with 'printf %q' after
interrupting the processing of a multibyte characeter with
'read -n1'. This test only fails in a UTF-8 locale, e.g. when
running: bin/shtests -u builtins SHELL=/buggy/ksh-2012-08-01
Fixes#5.
src/cmd/ksh93/data/signals.c:
- SIGINFO was absent from the table of signals, which caused
commands like 'kill -INFO $$' to fail even on platforms with
SIGINFO (such as macOS and FreeBSD). Fix that by adding
it to the signal table.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/signal.sh:
- Add a regression tests for using SIGINFO with the kill builtin.
The test will only be run if the external kill command supports
SIGINFO.
This gets rid of repetitive code in test scripts to create their
own temporary directories. Instead, shtests exports a $tmp to each
test script that is a subdirectory of its own temporary directory.
This has the advantage of having all test script temporary
directories in one hierarchy. Along with a new option to keep
temporary files, this makes it easy to inspect them if wanted.
This does make the test scripts less self-contained as they now
depend on a temporary directory being exported as $tmp. But they
already depended on $SHELL being the shell to test, so they already
were not quite self-contained.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/shtests:
- Add -k/--keep option to keep temporary directory. Make the EXIT
trap report its location instead of deleting it.
- For each test, create a subdirectory of $tmp (named after the
test script plus the tested locale or 'shcomp') and export that
subdirectory to the test script as its own $tmp.
- If -k is not given, delete each script's temporary files
immediately after running it to minimise disk usage.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/*.sh:
- Don't make own temp directory.
- Refuse to run if $tmp is not set.
- Miscellaneous tweaks.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- Fix race condition in the test "raw Bourne mode literal tab
characters with wide characters enabled" by adding 'd 10' to add
a 10-millisecond delay before every write. Thanks to @JohnoKing:
https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/pull/57#issuecomment-653617531
- Fix locale for test "raw Bourne mode backslash handling" (should
be UTF-8, not UTF8) (re: a0dcdeea).
- Add a few more dummy # err_exit # comments to allow shtests to
count the number of tests.
This commit fixes the following bugs in the 'vi' editing mode
backslash escape feature. Ref.: Bolsky & Korn (1995), p. 113, which
states for \: "Similar to Control+V [...] except that it escapes
only the next Erase or Kill charactrer".
1. The vi mode now only escapes the next character if the last
character input was a backslash, fixing the bug demonstrated at:
https://asciinema.org/a/E3Rq3et07MMQG5BaF7vkXQTg0
2. Escaping backslashes are now disabled in vi.c if the vi mode is
disabled (note that vi.c handles raw editing mode in UTF-8
locales). This makes the behavior of the raw editing mode
consistent in C/POSIX and UTF-8 locales.
3. An odd interaction with Backspace when the character prior to a
separate buffer entered with Shift-C was a backslash has been
fixed. Demonstration at: https://asciinema.org/a/314833
^? will no longer be output repeatedly when attempting to erase
a separate buffer with a Backspace, although, to be consistent
with vi(1), you still cannot backspace past it before escaping
out of it. Ref.:
https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/56#issuecomment-653586994
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/vi.c:
- Prevent a backslash from escaping the next input if the previous
input wasn't a backslash. This is done by unsetting a variable
named backslash if a backslash escaped a character. backslash is
set to the result of c == '\\' when the user enters a new
character.
- Disable escaping backslashes in the raw editing mode because
it should not be enabled there.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- Add some tests for how ksh handles backslashes in each
editing mode to test for the bugs fixed by this commit.
Fixes#56.
ksh crashed if it encountered a .paths directory in any of the
directories in $PATH.
Ref: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ksh/+bug/1534855
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/path.c: path_chkpaths():
- Refuse to read .paths if it's not a regular file
or a symlink to a regular file.
In <https://github.com/att/ast/commit/d2771913>, GCC version 10 was
specifically special-cased for skipping the -nostartfiles flag
along with versions 7, 8, and 9. It seems more future-proof to
specifically include it for versions up to 6 and remove it for any
version 7 and up.
src/cmd/INIT/make.probe:
- Remove the -nostartfiles for all version of gcc > 7.
Regular expressions that combine a repetition expression with
a parenthesized sub-expression throw a garbled syntax error:
$ [[ AATAAT =~ (AAT){2} ]]
ksh: syntax error: `~(E)(AAT){2} ]]
:'%Cred%h%Creseksh: syntax error: `~(E)(AAT){2} ]]
:'%Cred%h%Creseksh: syntax' unexpected
The syntax error occurs because ksh is not fully
accounting for '=~' when it runs into a curly bracket.
This fix disables the syntax error when the operator
is '=~' and adds handling for '(str){x}' (to allow for
more than one sub-expression). This bugfix and the
regression tests for it were backported from ksh93v-
2014-12-24-beta.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/lex.c:
- Do not trigger a syntax error for '{x}' when the operator
is '=~' and add handling for multiple parentheses when
combined with '{x}'.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/bracket.sh:
- Add two tests from ksh93v- to test sub-expressions
combined with the '{x}' quantifier.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/leaks.sh:
- This script was never actually running the regression
tests because 'vmstate' isn't available as a builtin.
While this can be fixed by adding vmstate to the builtin
table, that has the downside of increasing the binary
size of ksh. This commit replaces all usage of 'vmstate'
with 'ps' and 'awk' as a different way to measure
memory usage. The memory leaks regression tests are now
always run.
- Rename old $n to $N due to new $n interfering with the old
regression test.
- Add before and after results for the number of 1024-byte
blocks leaked in each test.

File descriptors that are too far out of range will cause the
read builtin to crash. The following example will generate
two crashes:
$ ksh -c 'read -u 2000000' || ksh -c 'read -u-2000000'
The fix is to error out when the given file descriptor is out
of range. This bugfix is from Tomas Klacko, although it was
modified to use 'sh_iovalidfd' and reject numbers greater
than 'INT_MAX':
https://www.mail-archive.com/ast-developers@lists.research.att.com/msg01912.html
The question about 'shp->fdstatus[-1]' only applies to ksh93v-
(ksh93u+ doesn't have any references to 'shp->fdstatus[-1]').
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/read.c:
- File descriptors that are out of range should be rejected
with an error message (like invalid file descriptors that
are in range). The seemingly redundant check for negative
numbers is there because out of range negative numbers also
cause memory faults despite the later 'fd<0' check.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/io.sh:
- Add three tests for attempting 'read -u' on various invalid
file descriptor numbers.
Not cleaning up the FIFO broke 'grep -r' in the arch directory,
making it hang forever. So we need a better way of cleaning it up.
bin/package,
src/cmd/INIT/package.sh:
- Unlink the FIFO early after sleeping a second in the background.
This works because the named directory entry is only needed to
establish the pipe, not to keep it going.
To get ksh to prefer UTC over GMT in 'printf %T' output, only the
change in format[] was needed. The corresponding change in zone[]
made it prefer UTC for London time, even in summer time, which is
wrong -- e.g.:
$ LANG=C TZ=Europe/London arch/*/bin/ksh -c 'date; printf %T\\n now'
Tue Jun 30 01:39:09 BST 2020
Tue Jun 30 00:39:09 UTC 2020
src/lib/libast/tm/tmdata.c:
- Revert change in zone[].
The regression test failed on systems where 'chmod' exists at more
than one location, e.g. Slackware where it's at both /bin/chmod and
/usr/bin/chmod.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/builtins.sh: 'whence -a'/tracked aliases test:
- In the expected value, use modified 'whence -a -p chmod' output
to get all of the paths to chmod.
- On failure, report both expected and actual values.
* Fix the readonly builtin's scope in functions
This bug was first reported at https://github.com/att/ast/issues/881
'tdata.sh->prefix' is only set to the correct value when
'b_readonly' is called as 'export', which breaks 'readonly' in
functions because the correct scope isn't set. As a result, the
following example will only print a newline:
$ function show_bar { readonly foo=bar; echo $foo; }; show_bar
The fix is to move the required code out of the if statement for
'export', as it needs to be run for 'readonly' as well. This bugfix
is from https://github.com/att/ast/pull/906
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/typeset.c:
- Set 'tdata.sh->prefix' to the correct value, otherwise 'readonly'
uses the wrong scope.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/builtins.sh:
- Add the regression test from ksh2020, modified to run in a
subshell.
src/cmd/ksh93/data/builtins.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh.1:
- Add documentation of 'readonly' vs. 'typeset -r' difference:
'readonly' does not create a function-local scope.

The following set of commands ends with a memory fault under
certain circumstances because ksh attempts to free memory
twice, causing memory corruption:
$ testarray=(1 2)
$ compound testarray
$ unset testarray
$ eval testarray=
The fix is to make sure 'np->nvfun' is a valid pointer before
attempting to free memory in 'put_tree'. This patch is from
OpenSUSE: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/shells/ksh/ksh93-nvtree-free.dif?expand=1
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/nvtree.c:
- Do not try to free memory when 'np->nvfun' and 'val'
are false.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/comvar.sh:
- Add a regression test for the double free problem. The
reproducer must be run from an executable script
with 'ksh -c'.
Variables created with 'typeset -RF' were being treated as
short integers, even though they are actually floating point
values. As a result the following example will cause a crash:
$ typeset -RF foo=1
$ test "$foo"
This is fixed by checking for 'NV_DOUBLE' with 'nv_isattr',
which prevents ksh from treating floating point values as
short integers due to '== NV_INT16P' excluding 'NV_DOUBLE'.
This bugfix was backported from ksh93v- 2013-10-10-alpha.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/array.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/name.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/nvdisc:
- Avoid treating floating point values as short integers by
checking for 'NV_DOUBLE' with 'nv_isattr'.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/types.sh:
- Add a regression test for the 'typeset -RF' crash. The
crash cannot be replicated if 'typeset -RF' sets 'foo'
to zero.
