Immediately after tab-completing the name of a directory, it is
not possible to type digits after the slash; ksh eats them as it
parses them as a menu selection for a nonexistent menu.
Reproducer:
$ mkdir -p emacstest/123abc
$ cd emacste[tab]123abc
Actual results:
$ cd emacstest/abc
Expected results:
$ cd emacstest/123abc
Workarounds are to press a non-numeric key followed by backspace,
or hit [tab] again to get a list of options.

The fix had been partially backported from ksh 93v- by AT&T
(16e4824c), which made things worse, so it was reverted (e8b3274a).
This commit backports a slightly edited version of the complete
fix. Thanks to @JohnoKing for finding the correct code. Discussion:
https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/198#issuecomment-820178514
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c: escape():
- Backport the fix for this bug that was implemented in ksh 93v-
alpha 2013-10-10. Immediately after a slash, do not stay in "\"
mode (file name completion) and reset the tab count.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- Test the fix.
Resolves: https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/198
Many of these changes are minor typo fixes. The other changes
(which are mostly compiler warning fixes) are:
NEWS:
- The --globcasedetect shell option works on older Linux kernels
when used with FAT32/VFAT file systems, so remove the note about
it only working with 5.2+ kernels.
src/cmd/ksh93/COMPATIBILITY:
- Update the documentation on function scoping with an addition
from ksh93v- (this does apply to ksh93u+).
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c:
- Check for '_AST_ksh_release', not 'AST_ksh_release'.
src/cmd/INIT/mamake.c,
src/cmd/INIT/ratz.c,
src/cmd/INIT/release.c,
src/cmd/builtin/pty.c:
- Add more uses of UNREACHABLE() and noreturn, this time for the
build system and pty.
src/cmd/builtin/pty.c,
src/cmd/builtin/array.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/name.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/nvtype.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/suid_exec.c:
- Fix six -Wunused-variable warnings (the name.c nv_arrayptr()
fixes are also in ksh93v-).
- Remove the unused 'tableval' function to fix a -Wunused-function
warning.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/lex.c:
- Remove unused 'SHOPT_DOS' code, which isn't enabled anywhere.
https://github.com/att/ast/issues/272#issuecomment-354363112
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/misc.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/trap.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/typeset.c:
- Add dictionary generator function declarations for former
aliases that are now builtins (re: 1fbbeaa1, ef1621c1, 3ba4900e).
- For consistency with the rest of the codebase, use '(void)'
instead of '()' for print_cpu_times.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/init.c,
src/lib/libast/path/pathshell.c:
- Move the otherwise unused EXE macro to pathshell() and only
search for 'sh.exe' on Windows.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c,
src/lib/libast/include/ast.h:
- Add an empty definition for inline when compiling with C89.
This allows the timeval_to_double() function to be inlined.
src/cmd/ksh93/include/shlex.h:
- Remove the unused 'PIPESYM2' macro.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- Add '# err_exit #' to count the regression test added in
commit 113a9392.
src/lib/libast/disc/sfdcdio.c:
- Move diordwr, dioread, diowrite and dioexcept behind
'#ifdef F_DIOINFO' to fix one -Wunused-variable warning and
multiple -Wunused-function warnings (sfdcdio() only uses these
functions when F_DIOINFO is defined).
src/lib/libast/string/fmtdev.c:
- Fix two -Wimplicit-function-declaration warnings on Linux by
including sys/sysmacros.h in fmtdev().
To set a window title in bash and zsh, the $PS1 prompt can be set
with the title placed between $'\E]0;' and $'\a':
set -o emacs # Or vi mode
typeset -A fmt=(
[start_title]=$'\E]0;'
[end_title]=$'\a'
)
PS1="${fmt[start_title]}$(hostname): $(uname)${fmt[end_title]}\$ "
This also works in ksh unless the shell receives SIGWINCH. With a
$PS1 that sets a window title, the prompt breaks until two
interrupts are received. This is caused by ed_setup() skipping
$'\a' (the bell character) when setting up the e_prompt buffer
which is an edited version of the final line of the PS1 prompt for
use when redrawing the command line.
One fix would be to avoid cutting out the bell character. But if
the prompt contains a bell, we only want the terminal to beep when
a new prompt is printed, and not upon refreshing the command line,
e.g. when receiving SIGWINCH or pressing Ctrl+L.
To avoid the problem, this commit adds code that cuts out sequences
of the form ESC ] <number> ; <text> BELL from the prompt redraw
buffer altogether. They are not needed there because these
sequences will already have taken effect when the full prompt was
printed by io_prompt().
This commit also adds a tweak that should improve the recognition
of other escape sequences to count their length.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c: ed_setup():
- When preparing the e_prompt buffer, cut out dtterm/xterm
Operating System Commands that set window/icon title, etc.
See: https://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.html
- When counting the length of escape sequences in that part of PS1,
try to recognize some more types of sequences. These changes are
part of a ksh2020 patch: https://github.com/att/ast/issues/399
src/cmd/ksh93/sh.1:
- Document that any '!' in escape sequences in the PS1 prompt needs
to be changed to '!!'. To avoid breaking compatibility, this
requirement is documented instead of backporting the changes to
io_prompt() from https://github.com/att/ast/issues/399 which try
to remove that requirement for specific escape sequences.

This commit adds an UNREACHABLE() macro that expands to either the
__builtin_unreachable() compiler builtin (for release builds) or
abort(3) (for development builds). This is used to mark code paths
that are never to be reached.
It also adds the 'noreturn' attribute to functions that never
return: path_exec(), sh_done() and sh_syntax(). The UNREACHABLE()
macro is not added after calling these.
The purpose of these is:
* to slightly improve GCC/Clang compiler optimizations;
* to fix a few compiler warnings;
* to add code clarity.
Changes of note:
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/io.c: outexcept():
- Avoid using __builtin_unreachable() here since errormsg can
return despite using ERROR_system(1), as shp->jmplist->mode is
temporarily set to 0. See: https://github.com/att/ast/issues/1336
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/io.sh:
- Add a regression test for the ksh2020 bug referenced above.
src/lib/libast/features/common:
- Detect the existence of either the C11 stdnoreturn.h header or
the GCC noreturn attribute, preferring the former when available.
- Test for the existence of __builtin_unreachable(). Use it for
release builds. On development builds, use abort() instead, which
crahses reliably for debugging when unreachable code is reached.

This commit adds '/* FALLTHROUGH */' comments to fix many
GCC warnings when compiling with -Wimplicit-fallthrough.
Additionally, the existing fallthrough comments have been
changed for consistency.
This bug was originally reported at <https://github.com/att/ast/issues/1467>.
A crash can occur when using the 'b' or 'B' vi mode commands to go back
one word. I was able to reproduce these crashes with 100% consistency on
an OpenBSD virtual machine when ksh is compiled with -D_std_malloc.
Reproducer:
$ set -o vi
$ asdf <ESC> <b or B>
The fix is based on Matthew DeVore's analysis:
> I suspect this is caused by this line:
>> while (vi_isalph(tcur_virt) && tcur_virt >= first_virt) --tcur_virt;
> which is in the b codepath. It checks vi_isalph(tcur_virt) before checking
> if tcur_virt is in range. These two clauses should be reversed. Note that
> line 316 is a similar check for pressing B, and there the tcur_virt value
> is checked first.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/vi.c:
- Check tcur_virt before using isalph() or isblank() to fix both crashes.
At the start of the backword() while loop this check was performed
twice, so the redundant check has been removed.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- Add a regression test for the b, B, w and W editor commands.
One of the best-kept secrets of libast/ksh93 is that the code
includes support for case-insensitive file name generation (a.k.a.
pathname expansion, a.k.a. globbing) as well as case-insensitive
file name completion on interactive shells, depending on whether
the file system is case-insensitive or not. This is transparently
determined for each directory, so a path pattern that spans
multiple file systems can be part case-sensitive and part case-
insensitive. In more precise terms, each slash-separated path name
component pattern P is treated as ~(i:P) if its parent directory
exists on a case-insensitive file system. I recently discovered
this while dealing with <https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/223>.
However, that support is dead code on almost all current systems.
It depends on pathconf(2) having a _PC_PATH_ATTRIBUTES selector.
The 'c' attribute is supposedly returned if the given directory is
on a case insensitive file system. There are other attributes as
well (at least 'l', see src/lib/libcmd/rm.c). However, I have been
unable to find any system, current or otherwise, that has
_PC_PATH_ATTRIBUTES. Google and mailing list searches yield no
relevant results at all. If anyone knows of such a system, please
add a comment to this commit on GitHub, or email me.
An exception is Cygwin/Windows, on which the "c" attribute was
simply hardcoded, so globbing/completion is always case-
insensitive. As of Windows 10, that is wrong, as it added the
possibility to mount case-sensitive file systems.
On the other hand, this was never activated on the Mac, even
though macOS has always used a case-insensitive file like Windows.
But, being UNIX, it can also mount case-sensitive file systems.
Finally, Linux added the possibility to create individual case-
insensitive ext4 directories fairly recently, in version 5.2.
https://www.collabora.com/news-and-blog/blog/2020/08/27/using-the-linux-kernel-case-insensitive-feature-in-ext4/
So, since this functionality latently exists in the code base, and
three popular OSs now have relevant file system support, we might
as well make it usable on those systems. It's a nice idea, as it
intuitively makes sense for globbing and completion behaviour to
auto-adapt to file system case insensitivity on a per-directory
basis. No other shell does this, so it's a nice selling point, too.
However, the way it is coded, this is activated unconditionally on
supported systems. That is not a good idea. It will surprise users.
Since globbing is used with commands like 'rm', we do not want
surprises. So this commit makes it conditional upon a new shell
option called 'globcasedetect'. This option is only compiled into
ksh on systems where we can actually detect FS case insensitivity.
To implement this, libast needs some public API additions first.
*** libast changes ***
src/lib/libast/features/lib:
- Add probes for the linux/fs.h and sys/ioctl.h headers.
Linux needs these to use ioctl(2) in pathicase(3) (see below).
src/lib/libast/path/pathicase.c,
src/lib/libast/include/ast.h,
src/lib/libast/man/path.3,
src/lib/libast/Mamfile:
- Add new pathicase(3) public API function. This uses whatever
OS-specific method it can detect at compile time to determine if
a particular path is on a case-insensitive file system. If no
method is available, it only sets errno to ENOSYS and returns -1.
Currently known to work on: macOS, Cygwin, Linux 5.2+, QNX 7.0+.
- On systems (if any) that have the mysterious _PC_PATH_ATTRIBUTES
selector for pathconf(2), call astconf(3) and check for the 'c'
attribute to determine case insensitivity. This should preserve
compatibility with any such system.
src/lib/libast/port/astconf.c:
- dynamic[]: As case-insensitive globbing is now optional on all
systems, do not set the 'c' attribute by default on _WINIX
(Cygwin/Windows) systems.
- format(): On systems that do not have _PC_PATH_ATTRIBUTES, call
pathicase(3) to determine the value for the "c" (case
insensitive) attribute only. This is for compatibility as it is
more efficient to call pathicase(3) directly.
src/lib/libast/misc/glob.c,
src/lib/libast/include/glob.h:
- Add new GLOB_DCASE public API flag to glob(3). This is like
GLOB_ICASE (case-insensitive matching) except it only makes the
match case-insensitive if the file system for the current
pathname component is determined to be case-insensitive.
- gl_attr(): For efficiency, call pathicase(3) directly instead of
via astconf(3).
- glob_dir(): Only call gl_attr() to determine file system case
insensitivity if the GLOB_DCASE flag was passed. This makes case
insensitive globbing optional on all systems.
- glob(): The options bitmask needs to be widened to fit the new
GLOB_DCASE option. Define this centrally in a new GLOB_FLAGMASK
macro so it is easy to change it along with GLOB_MAGIC (which
uses the remaining bits for a sanity check bit pattern).
src/lib/libast/path/pathexists.c:
- For efficiency, call pathicase(3) directly instead of via
astconf(3).
*** ksh changes ***
src/cmd/ksh93/features/options,
src/cmd/ksh93/SHOPT.sh:
- Add new SHOPT_GLOBCASEDET compile-time option. Set it to probe
(empty) by default so that the shell option is compiled in on
supported systems only, which is determined by new iffe feature
test that checks if pathicase(3) returns an ENOSYS error.
src/cmd/ksh93/data/options.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/include/shell.h:
- Add -o globcasedetect shell option if compiling with
SHOPT_GLOBCASEDET.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/expand.c: path_expand():
- Pass the new GLOB_DCASE flag to glob(3) if the
globcasedetect/SH_GLOBCASEDET shell option is set.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/completion.c:
- While file listing/completion is based on globbing and
automatically becomes case-insensitive when globbing does, it
needs some additional handling to make a string comparison
case-insensitive in corresponding cases. Otherwise, partial
completions may be deleted from the command line upon pressing
tab. This code was already in ksh 93u+ and just needs to be
made conditional upon SHOPT_GLOBCASEDET and globcasedetect.
- For efficiency, call pathicase(3) directly instead of via
astconf(3).
src/cmd/ksh93/sh.1:
- Document the new globcasedetect shell option.
These are minor fixes I've accumulated over time. The following
changes are somewhat notable:
- Added a missing entry for 'typeset -s' to the man page.
- Add strftime(3) to the 'see also' section. This and the date(1)
addition are meant to add onto the documentation for 'printf %T'.
- Removed the man page the entry for ksh reading $PWD/.profile on
login. That feature was removed in commit aa7713c2.
- Added date(1) to the 'see also' section of the man page.
- Note that the 'hash' command can be used instead of 'alias -t' to
workaround one of the caveats listed in the man page.
- Use an 'out of memory' error message rather than 'out of space'
when memory allocation fails.
- Replaced backticks with quotes in some places for consistency.
- Added missing documentation for the %P date format.
- Added missing documentation for the printf %Q and %p formats
(backported from ksh2020: https://github.com/att/ast/pull/1032).
- The comments that show each builtin's options have been updated.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/history.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/deparse.c:
- Remove experimental code protected by '#ifdef future'.
No one is going to do anything with this, it's just clutter.
src/lib/libast/sfio/sfcvt.c:
- In 2021, it might be time to actually start using some C99
features were available. Change two checks for a _c99_in_the_wild
macro to actual checks for C99, enabling the use of fpclassify().
Resolves: https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/219
This removes #ifdefs checking for the existence of
SH_PLUGIN_VERSION (version check for dynamically loaded builtins)
and the SFIO identifiers SF_BUFCONST, SF_CLOSING, SF_APPENDWR,
SF_ATEXIT, all of which are defined by the bundled libast.
While experimenting with #233, a memory segmentation fault occurred.
A search of other emacs issues found a potential matching issue as
described in https://github.com/att/ast/pull/791. Also, a duplicate
PR of https://github.com/att/ast/pull/1489 was submitted. This
commit backports that fix.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/history.c: hist_word():
- Switch from using strcpy to memmove as the two strings could overlap.
Upon encountering two filenames with multibyte characters starting
with the same byte, a partial multibyte character was completed.
Reproducer (to run in UTF-8 locale):
$ touch XXXá XXXë
$ : XX <== pres tab
$ : XXX^? <== partial multibyte character appears
Note: á is $'\xc3\xa1' and ë is $'\xc3\xab' (same initial byte).
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/completion.c:
- Add multibyte support to the charcmp() and overlaid() functions.
Thanks to Harald van Dijk for useful code and suggestions.
- Add a few missing mbinit() calls. The state of multibyte
processing must be reset before starting a new loop in case a
previous processing run was interrupted mid-character.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- Add test based on Harald's reproducer.
Resolves: https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/223
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/history.c:
- Call sh_close() and sh_fcntl() instead of close(2) and fcntl(2),
updating the shell's file descriptor state.
- Mark files close-on-exec on opening them. The history file should
not remain open if ksh execs another process.
- Another fix for an FD check: < 10 instead of < 2.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c: ed_read():
- The loop that handles SIGWINCH assumes sfpkrd will return and
set errno to EINTR if ksh is sent SIGWINCH. This only occurs
when select(2) is used to wait for input, so tell sfpkrd to
use select if possible. This is only done if the last argument
given to sfpkrd is '2', which should avoid regressions.
src/lib/libast/sfio/sfpkrd.c: sfpkrd():
- Always use select if the last argument is 2. This allows
sfpkrd() to intercept SIGWINCH when necessary.
Fixes: https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/202
The referenced commit neglected to add checks for strdup() calls.
That calls malloc() as well, and is used a lot.
This commit switches to another strategy: it adds wrapper functions
for all the allocation macros that check if the allocation
succeeded, so those checks don't need to be done manually.
src/cmd/ksh93/include/defs.h,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/init.c:
- Add sh_malloc(), sh_realloc(), sh_calloc(), sh_strdup(),
sh_memdup() wrapper functions with success checks. Call nospace()
to error out if allocation fails.
- Update new_of() macro to use sh_malloc().
- Define new sh_newof() macro to replace newof(); it uses
sh_realloc().
All other changed files:
- Replace the relevant calls with the wrappers.
- Remove now-redundant success checks from 18529b88.
- The ERROR_PANIC error message calls are updated to inclusive-or
ERROR_SYSTEM into the exit code argument, so libast's error()
appends the human-readable version of errno in square brackets.
See src/lib/libast/man/error.3
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/history.c:
- Include "defs.h" to get access to the wrappers even if KSHELL is
not defined.
- Since we're here, fix a compile error that occurred with KSHELL
undefined by updating the type definition of hist_fname[] to
match that of history.h.
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/enum.c:
- To get access to sh_newof(), include "defs.h" instead of
<shell.h> (note that "defs.h" includes <shell.h> itself).
src/cmd/ksh93/Mamfile:
- enum.c: depend on defs.h instead of shell.h.
- enum.o: add an -I. flag in the compiler invocation so that defs.h
can find its subsequent includes.
src/cmd/builtin/pty.c:
- Define one outofmemory() function and call that instead of
repeating the error message call.
- outofmemory() never returns, so remove superfluous exit handling.

At init, and then whenever the TERM variable changes, ed_setup()
uses sh_trap() to run the external 'tput' command to get the
current terminal escape sequence for moving up the cursor one line.
A sh_trap() call executes a shell command as if a shell script's
trap action had executed it, so is subject to modes like the
restricted mode. As of 7ff6b73b, we execute tput using its absolute
path (found and hardcoded at compile time) for better
robustness/security. This fails in restricted mode as it does not
allow executing commands by absolute path. But in C, nothing stops
us from turning that off.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c: ed_setup():
- Block SIGINT while doing all of the following, so the user can't
interrupt it and escape from restricted mode. Even without that,
it's probably a good idea to do this, so an interrupt doesn't
cause an inconsistent state.
Note that sigblock() and sigrelease() are macros defined in
features/sigfeatures. To get those, we need to include <fault.h>.
- Temporarily turn off SH_RESTRICTED before sh_trap()ping tput to
get the terminal command to move the cursor up one position.
- Avoid potentially using a sequence that was cut off. Only use the
resulting string if its length does not exceed the space reserved
for CURSOR_UP. Otherwise, empty it.
src/cmd/ksh93/Mamfile:
- Add fault.h dependency to edit.c.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/history.c:
- Fix typos in introductory comment.
1. The editor accepted literal tabs without escaping in certain
cases, causing buggy and inconsistent completion behaviour.
https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/71#issuecomment-656970959https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/71#issuecomment-657216472
2. After completing a filename by choosing from a file completion
menu, the terminal cursor was placed one position too far to the
right, corrupting command line display. This happened with
multiline active.
https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/71#issue-655093805
3. A completion menu was displayed if the file name to be completed
was at the point where the rest of it started with a number,
even if that part uniquely identified it so the menu had 1 item.
https://www.mail-archive.com/ast-users@lists.research.att.com/msg00436.html
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c:
- Cosmetic consistency: change two instances of cntl('[') to ESC.
- ed_emacsread(): Fix number 1 by refusing to continue into default
processing if a tab character was not used for tab completion.
Instead, beep and continue to the next read loop iteration. This
behaviour is consistent with most other shells, so I doubt there
will be objections. To enter a literal tab it's simple enough to
escape it with ^V (the 'stty lnext' character) or \.
- draw(): Fix number 2 by correcting an off-by-one error in the
ed_setcursor() call that updates the terminal's cursor display
in multiline mode. The 'old' and 'new' parameters need to have
identical values in this particular call to avoid the cursor
position being off by one to the right. This change makes it
match the corresponding ed_setcursor() call in vi.c. See below*
for details. Thanks to Lev Kujawski for the help in analysing.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/completion.c: ed_expand():
- Fix number 3 by changing from '=' mode (menu-based completion) to
'\' mode (ordinary filename completion) if the menu would only
show one option, which was pointless and annoying. This never
happened in vi mode, so possibly the ed_expand() call in emacs.c
could have been improved instead. But I'm comfortable with fixing
it here and not in emacs.c, because this fixes it at a more
fundamental level, plus it's straightforward and obvious here.

This bug was backported along with a fix from 93v-. An inconsistent
state occurred if you caused a file name completion menu to appear
with two TABs (which also puts you in command mode) but then
re-enter insert mode (e.g. with 'a') instead of entering a number.
$ set -o vi
$ cd /
$ bin/p [press TAB twice]
1) pax
2) ps
3) pwd [now type 'a', 'wd', return]
$ bin/pwd
> [PS2 prompt wrongly appears; press return]
/
$
Here's another reproducer, suggesting the problem is a write past
the end of the screen buffer:
$ set -o vi
$ cd /
$ bin/p [press TAB twice]
1) pax
2) ps
3) pwd [press '0', then '$']
$ bin/p [cursor is one too far to the right, past the 'p'!]
[Further operations show random evidence of memory corruption]

src/cmd/ksh93/edit/vi.c: textmod():
- Restore the missing restore of last_virt.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- Add test that checks basic completion menu functionality works
and runs modified versions of the two reproducers above.
Resolves: https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/195
Most of these changes remove unused variables, functions and labels
to fix -Wunused compiler warnings. Somewhat notable changes:
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/print.c:
- Removed the unused 'neg' variable.
Patch from ksh2020: https://github.com/att/ast/pull/725
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/sleep.c:
- Initialized ns to fix three -Wsometimes-uninitialized warnings.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/{emacs,vi}.c:
- Adjust strncpy size to fix two -Wstringop-truncation warnings.
src/cmd/ksh93/include/shell.h:
- The NOT_USED macro caused many -Wunused-value warnings,
so it has been replaced with ksh2020's macro:
https://github.com/att/ast/commit/19d0620a
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/expand.c:
- Removed an unnecessary 'ap = ' since 'ap' is never read
between stakseek and stakfreeze.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/vi.c: refresh():
- Undef this function's 'w' macro at the end of it to stop it
potentially interfering with future code changes.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/nvdisc.c,
src/lib/libast/misc/magic.c,
src/lib/libast/regex/regsubexec.c,
src/lib/libast/sfio/sfpool.c,
src/lib/libast/vmalloc/vmbest.c:
- Fixed some indentation to silence -Wmisleading-indentation
warnings.
src/lib/libast/include/ast.h:
- For clang, now only suppress hundreds of -Wparentheses warnings
as well as a few -Wstring-plus-int warnings.
Clang's -Wparentheses warns about things like
if(foo = bar())
which assigns to foo and checks the assigned value.
Clang wants us to change this into
if((foo = bar()))
Clang's -Wstring-plus-int warns about things like
"string"+x
where x is an integer, e.g. "string"+3 represents the string
"ing". Clang wants us to change that to
"string"[3]
The original versions represent a perfectly valid coding style
that was common in the 1980s and 1990s and is not going to change
in this historic code base. (gcc does not complain about these.)

In the emacs editor:
1. press ESC
2. change the size of your terminal window
and your screen is mysteriously cleared. (Until recent fixes, the
shell probably also crashed somewhere in the job control code.)
The cause is the way SIGWINCH is handled by ed_read() in edit.c.
For the emacs editor, it sends a Ctrl+L character to the input
buffer. The Ctrl+L command refreshes the command line. And it so
happens that ESC plus Ctrl+L is a command to clear the screen in
the emacs editor.
With the exeption of vi insert/command mode for which it uses a
shared flag, edit.c does not know the state of the editor, because
their data are internal to emacs.c and vi.c. So it doesn't know
whether you're in some mode that treats keyboard input specially.
Which means this way of dealing with SIGWINCH is fundamentally
misdesigned and is not worth fixing.
It gets sillier: in addition to sending keyboard commands, edit.c
was also communicating directly with emacs.c and vi.c via a flag,
e_nocrnl, which means 'please don't make Ctrl+L emit a linefeed'
(it normally refreshes on a new line but that is undesirable for
SIGWINCH). So there is already a hack that breaks the barrier
between edit.c and emacs.c/vi.c. Let's do that properly instead.
As of this commit, ed_read() does not send any fake keystrokes.
Instead, two extern functions, emacs_redraw() and vi_redraw(), are
defined for redrawing the command line. These are put in emacs.c
and vi.c so they have access to relevant static data and functions.
Then, instead of sending keyboard commands to the editor and
returning, ed_read() simply calls the redraw function for the
active editor, then continues and waits for input. Much cleaner.
src/cmd/ksh93/include/edit.h:
- Remove e_nocrnl flag from Edit_t struct.
- Define externs emacs_redraw() and vi_redraw(). Since Emacs_t and
Vi_t types are not known here, we have to declare void* pointers
and the functions will have to use typecasts.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c:
- ed_read(): Call emacs_redraw() or vi_redraw() as per above.
- ed_getchar(): Remove comment about a nonexistent while loop.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c:
- Updates corresponding to removal of e_nocrnl flag.
- Add emacs_redraw(). This one is pretty simple. Refresh the
command line, then ed_flush() to update the cursor display.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/vi.c:
- Updates corresponding to removal of e_nocrnl flag. Also remove a
similar internal 'nonewline' flag which is now equally redundant.
- Move the Ctrl+L handling code (minus writing the newline) into
the vi_redraw() function.
- Change two cases where vi set nonewline and sent Ctrl+L to itself
into simple vi_redraw() calls.
- Add vi_redraw(). This is more complicated as it incorporates the
previous Ctrl+L code. It needs an added refresh() call with a
check whether we're currently in command or insert mode, as those
use different refresh methods. Luckily edit.c already maintains
an *e_vi_insert flag in ed_getchar() that we can use. Since vi's
refresh() already calls ed_flush(), we don't need to add that.
Huge typeset -L/-R adjustment length values were still causing
crashses on sytems with not enough memory. They should error out
gracefully instead of crashing.
This commit adds out of memory checks to all malloc/calloc/realloc
calls that didn't have them (which is all but two or three).
The stkalloc/stakalloc calls don't need the checks; it has
automatic checking, which is done by passing a pointer to the
outofspace() function to the stakinstall() call in init.c.
src/lib/libast/include/error.h:
- Change the ERROR_PANIC exit status value from ERROR_LEVEL (255)
to 77, which is what it is supposed to be according to the libast
error.3 manual page. Exit statuses > 128 for anything else than
signals are not POSIX compliant and may cause misbehaviour.
src/cmd/ksh93/include/defs.h,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/init.c:
- To facilitate consistency, add a simple extern sh_outofmemory()
function that throws an ERROR_PANIC "out of memory".
src/cmd/ksh93/include/shell.h,
src/cmd/ksh93/data/builtins.c:
- Remove now-redundant e_nospace[] extern message; it is now only
used in one place so it might as well be a string literal in
sh_outofmemory().
All other changed files:
- Verify the result of all malloc/calloc/realloc calls and call
sh_outofmemory() if they fail.
It's amazing what can happen when you compile ksh using standard
malloc (i.e. with AST vmalloc disabled) on OpenBSD. Its security
hardening provokes crashes that reveal decades-old unsolved bugs.
This one is an attempt to access one byte before the beginning of
the command line buffer when the cursor is at the beginning of it.
On this system configuration, it provoked an instant crash whenever
you moved the cursor back to the beginning of the command line,
e.g. with ^A or the cursor keys.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c: draw():
- Check that the cursor is actually past the first position of the
command line buffer before trying to read the position
immediately before it. If not, zero the value.
Many of the errors fixed in this commit are word repetitions
such as 'the the' and minor spelling errors. One formatting
error in the ksh man page has also been fixed.
This commit fixes the following:
1. Emacs mode ignores --nobackslashctrl (re: 24598fed) when in
reverse search.
2. When entering more than one backslash, emacs reverse search mode
deletes multiple backslashes after pressing backspace once.
Reproducer:
$ set --emacs --nobackslashctrl
$ <Ctrl+R> \\\\<Backspace>
3. Except when in reverse search, the backslash fails to escape a
subsequent interrupt character (^C). Reproducer:
$ set --emacs --backslashctrl
$ teststring \<Ctrl+C>
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c:
- Disable escaping backslashes in emacs reverse search if
'nobackslashctrl' is enabled.
- Fix the buggy behavior of backslashes in emacs reverse
search by processing backslashes in a loop.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- Add regression tests.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh.1:
- Fix a minor documentation error (^C is the usual interrupt
character, not ^?).

This commit fixes the functionality of Alt+D and Alt+H in emacs mode.
These keyboard shortcuts are intended to work on whole words, but
after commit 13c3fb21 their functionality was reduced to deleting only
singular letters:
$ Test word <Alt+H> # This should delete 'word', not just 'd'.
$ Foo <Alt+B> <Alt+D> # This should delete 'Foo', not just 'F'.
Man page entries for reference:
M-d Delete current word.
M-^H (Meta-backspace) Delete previous word.
M-h Delete previous word.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c:
- 'count' cannot be overridden when handling Alt+D or Alt+H,
so add the total number of repetitions to count (the number of
repetitions can't be negative).
- If 'count' is a negative number, set it to one before adding the
number of repetitions.
The following emacs editor 'feature' kept making me want to go back
to bash. I forget a backslash escape in a command somewhere. So I
go back to insert it. I type the \, then want to go forward. My
right arrow key, instead of moving the cursor, then replaces my
backslash with garbage. Why? The backslash escapes the following
control character at the editor level and inserts it literally.
The vi editor has a variant of this which is much less harmful. It
only works in insert mode and the backslash only escapes the next
kill or erase character.
In both editors, this feature is completely redundant with the
'stty lnext' character which is ^V by default -- and works better
as well because it also escapes ^C, ^J (linefeed) and ^M (Return).
[In fact, you could even issue 'stty lnext \\' and get a much more
consistent version of this feature on any shell. You have to type
two backslashes to enter one, but it won't kill your cursor keys.]
If it were up to me alone, I'd simply remove this misfeature from
both editors. However, it is long-standing documented behaviour.
It's in the 1995 book. Plus, POSIX specifies the vi variant of it.
So, this adds a shell option instead. It was quite trivial to do.
Now I can 'set --nobackslashctrl' in my ~/.kshrc. What a relief!
Note: To keep .kshrc compatibile with older ksh versions, use:
command set --nobackslashctrl 2>/dev/null
src/cmd/ksh93/include/shell.h,
src/cmd/ksh93/data/options.c:
- Add new SH_NOBACKSLCTRL/"nobackslashctrl" long-form option. The
"no" prefix shows it to the user as "backslashctrl" which is on
by default. This avoids unexpectedly changing historic behaviour.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c: ed_emacsread(),
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/vi.c: getline():
- Only set the flag for special backslash handling if
SH_NOBACKSLCTRL is off.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh.1,
src/cmd/ksh93/data/builtins.c:
- Document the new option (as "backslashctrl", on by default).
Other minor tweaks:
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c:
- ed_setup(): Add fallback #error if no tput method is set. This
should never be triggered; it's to catch future editing mistakes.
- escape(): cntl('\t') is nonsense as '\t' is already a control
character, so change this to just '\t'.
- xcommands(): Let's enable the ^X^D command for debugging
information on non-release builds.
src/cmd/ksh93/features/cmds:
- The tput feature tests assumed a functioning terminal in $TERM.
However, for all we know we might be compiling with no tty and
TERM=dumb. The tput commands won't work then. So set TERM=ansi
to use a standard default.
Many compile-time options were broken so that they could not be
turned off without causing compile errors and/or regression test
failures. This commit now allows the following to be disabled:
SHOPT_2DMATCH # two dimensional ${.sh.match} for ${var//pat/str}
SHOPT_BGX # one SIGCHLD trap per completed job
SHOPT_BRACEPAT # C-shell {...,...} expansions (, required)
SHOPT_ESH # emacs/gmacs edit mode
SHOPT_HISTEXPAND # csh-style history file expansions
SHOPT_MULTIBYTE # multibyte character handling
SHOPT_NAMESPACE # allow namespaces
SHOPT_STATS # add .sh.stats variable
SHOPT_VSH # vi edit mode
The following still break ksh when disabled:
SHOPT_FIXEDARRAY # fixed dimension indexed array
SHOPT_RAWONLY # make viraw the only vi mode
SHOPT_TYPEDEF # enable typeset type definitions
Compiling without SHOPT_RAWONLY just gives four regression test
failures in pty.sh, but turning off SHOPT_FIXEDARRAY and
SHOPT_TYPEDEF causes compilation to fail. I've managed to tweak the
code to make it compile without those two options, but then dozens
of regression test failures occur, often in things nothing directly
to do with those options. It looks like the separation between the
code for these options and the rest was never properly maintained.
Making it possible to disable SHOPT_FIXEDARRAY and SHOPT_TYPEDEF
may involve major refactoring and testing and may not be worth it.
This commit has far too many tweaks to list. Notables fixes are:
src/cmd/ksh93/data/builtins.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/data/options.c:
- Do not compile in the shell options and documentation for
disabled features (braceexpand, emacs/gmacs, vi/viraw), so the
shell is not left with no-op options and inaccurate self-doc.
src/cmd/ksh93/data/lexstates.c:
- Comment the state tables to associte them with their IDs.
- In the ST_MACRO table (sh_lexstate9[]), do not make the S_BRACE
state for position 123 (ASCII for '{') conditional upon
SHOPT_BRACEPAT (brace expansion), otherwise disabling this causes
glob patterns of the form {3}(x) (matching 3 x'es) to stop
working as well -- and that is ksh globbing, not brace expansion.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c: ed_read():
- Fixed a bug: SIGWINCH was not handled by the gmacs edit mode.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/name.c: nv_putval():
- The -L/-R left/right adjustment options to typeset do not count
zero-width characters. This is the behaviour with SHOPT_MULTIBYTE
enabled, regardless of locale. Of course, what a zero-width
character is depends on the locale, but control characters are
always considered zero-width. So, to avoid a regression, add some
fallback code for non-SHOPT_MULTIBYTE builds that skips ASCII
control characters (as per iscntrl(3)) so they are still
considered to have zero width.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/shtests:
- Export the SHOPT_* macros from SHOPT.sh to the tests as
environment variables, so the tests can check for them and decide
whether or how to run tests based on the compile-time options
that the tested binary was presumably compiled with.
- Do not run the C.UTF-8 tests if SHOPT_MULTIBYTE is not enabled.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/*.sh:
- Add a bunch of checks for SHOPT_* env vars. Since most should
have a value 0 (off) or 1 (on), the form ((SHOPT_FOO)) is a
convenient way to use them as arithmetic booleans.
.github/workflows/ci.yml:
- Make GitHub do more testing: run two locale tests (Dutch and
Japanese UTF-8 locales), then disable all the SHOPTs that we can
currently disable, recompile ksh, and run the tests again.
Hopefully this will deal with ksh crashing in macOS Terminal.app
once and for all. Trigger: press Command-F to open the find bar,
then press Esc to close it, then press Esc again. Result: crash
somewhere random in the job control code.
Turns out macOS Terminal.app apparently (and wrongly) sends <Esc>
followed by <Ctrl+L> to the terminal, which ksh takes as a sequence
for clearing the screen. The related crash ultimately traced back
to the code for that in emacs.c. The other crash was in the code
for double-ESC file name completion.
This commit also fixes a non-robust invocation of the 'tput'
command by using the direct path found in $(getconf PATH).
src/cmd/ksh93/features/cmds:
- Remove unused tests for the presence of commands
(newgrp,test,id,wc,cut,logname,pfexec).
- Replace 'cmd tput' test by 'pth tput' which will find its path
in $(getconf PATH) and store that path as the macro value.
- Add two tests to determine if 'tput' supports terminfo and/or
termcap codes. (FreeBSD still requires old termcap codes.)
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c: escape():
- Fix a crash in the code for double-ESC completion. Check if the
cursor is on a non-zero position; this caused a bus error
(invalid address access) in the subsequent ed_expand call.
- For <Esc><Ctrl+L> (clear screen), fix the strange crash in macOS
Terminal by not using sh_trap() to invoke "tput clear", which
causes ksh itself to invoke that command. ksh apparently doesn't
cope with doing this while SIGWINCH (window size change signal)
is sent by Terminal. The fix is to just use the C standard
system(3) function to invoke tput. This invokes tput via /bin/sh,
but what the hey. (Note that ksh also ran any function or alias
called 'tput' instead of the real command, and that is now also
fixed.)
- Use the new _pth_tput test result to invoke tput with the
hardcoded default system path, increasing robustness.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c: ed_setup():
- Use the new _pth_tput test result to invoke tput with the
hardcoded default system path, increasing robustness.
- When getting the escape code for "cursor up", use the new
_tput_terminfo and _tput_termcap test results to determine which
kind of command code to send. This fixes it on FreeBSD.

Now that we have ${.sh.pid} a.k.a. shgd->current_pid, which is
updated using getpid() whenever forking a new process, there is no
need for anything else to ever call getpid(); we can use the stored
value instead. There were a lot of these syscalls kicking around,
some of them in performance-sensitive places.
The following lists only changes *other* than changing getpid() to
shgd->currentpid.
src/cmd/ksh93/include/defs.h:
- Comments: clarify what shgd->{pid,ppid,current_pid} are for.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/main.c,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/init.c:
- On reinit for a new script, update shgd->{pid,ppid,current_pid}
in the sh_reinit() function itself instead of calling sh_reinit()
from sh_main() and then updating those immediately after that
call. It just makes more sense this way. Nothing else ever calls
sh_reinit() so there are no side effects.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c: _sh_fork():
- Update shgd->current_pid in the child early, so that the rest of
the function can use it instead of calling getpid() again.
- Remove reassignment of SH_PIDNOD->nvalue.lp value pointer to
shgd->current_pid (which makes ${.sh.pid} work in the shell).
It's constant and was already set on init.
This patch from Red Hat fixes the following:
1. ksh was ignoring the -m (-o monitor) option when specified on
the invocation command line.
2. Scripts did not properly terminate their background processes
on Ctrl+C if the -m option was turned off. Reproducer:
xterm &
read junk
When run as a script without turning on -m, pressing Ctrl+C
should terminate the xterm, and now does.
3. Scripts no longer attempt to set the terminal foreground process
group ID, as only interactive shells should be doing that.
This makes some progress on https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/issues/119
but we're a long way from fixing all of that.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/main.c: exfile():
- On non-interactive shells, do not turn off the monitor option.
Instead, if it was turned on, turn on the SH_MONITOR state flag.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c: ed_getchar():
- On Ctrl+C, issue SIGINT to the current process group using
killpg(2) instead of going via sh_fault(), which handles a
signal only for the current shell process.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/jobs.c: job_reap(), job_reset(),
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c: sh_exec():
- Only attempt to set the terminal foreground process group ID
using tcsetpgrp(3) if the shell is interactive.
Original patch: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ksh/blob/642af4d6/f/ksh-20120801-kshmfix.patch
This was applied to Red Hat's ksh 93u+ on 8 July 2013.
In the vi and emacs line editors, repeat count parameters can now
also be used for the arrow keys and the forward-delete key. E.g.,
in emacs mode, <ESC> 7 <left-arrow> will now move the cursor seven
positions to the left. In vi control mode, this would be entered
as: 7 <left-arrow>.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c:
- ed_emacsread(): Upon getting ^[ (ESC), save current repeat count
in a new variable; restore and reset it upon the next character.
- escape(): Minor bugfix: when processing a ^[[x sequence where 'x'
is a character other than '~' (which would be DEL), also reinsert
the final character into the buffer so scripts can detect them.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/vi.c:
- cntlmode(): Do not reset the repeat count if the command is '[',
the character following ESC in VT220 escape sequences.
- mvcursor():
* Do not use getcount() to get the character following '[', as
that was parsing repetition parameters in the wrong place.
There wouldn't be any, so this would reset the repeat count.
* After that, no more need for the special-casing of ^[[3~ (DEL)
introduced in f2a3f4e3. Move it to within the 'switch' block.
* When handling left and right arrows and Home and End keys, do
not modify cursor directly but ed_ungetchar() the corresponding
traditional command keys as with the rest. Otherwise a repeat
count parameter would now wrongly survive those keys.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh.1:
- Document control character notation used for vi mode docs.
- Since vi control mode beeps and aborts on ESC except if a
subsequent [ is already in the input buffer upon receiving ESC,
document that VT220 escape sequences only preserve repeat counts
when entered into the input buffer all at once.
- Don't skip the initial ESC in the documentation of the VT220
escape sequences. In control mode, skipping the initial ESC still
works as before, but that is now undocumented, as it's really
nothing more than an artefact of VT220 escape processing.
- Move the two long paragraphs on '-o viraw' and canonical (i.e.
line-based) input processing from the vi editor introduction to
the options section under 'viraw'. It is much too arcane for the
intro, and besides, ksh 93u+ (and hence also 93u+m) has
SHOPT_VIRAW enabled by default, so the shell is compiled to force
this option on at all times, making it even less relevant for
most users.
One of the few AT&T fixes applied in early 2020 was a one-line
change to emacs.c tab handling, with only this info in the commit
message:
| - fix to emacs.c (I think from dgk)
So, it's unknown what that was meant to accomplish, but I did just
find that it breaks menu-driven pathname completion:
$ ls arch/darwin.i386-64/
1) bin/
2) fun/
3) include/
4) lib/
5) man/
6) src/

Typing 3+TAB should have inserted 'include/' but inserted a literal
tab instead. Reverting the vague "fix" fixes this bug.
On every modern system, the forward-delete key on PC/Mac keyboards
generates the VT220 sequence ESC [ 3 ~. Every other shell with an
editor handles this now, ksh93 seems to be the last not to.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/emacs.c: escape():
- Handle the ^[[3 as part of normal escape processing, then read an
extra character to check for the final '~'. If detected, insert
an ERASECHAR key event.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/vi.c: mvcursor():
- Replace the ^[[3~ sequence by an 'x' command. We have to
special-case its processing, because vi mode parses numbers as
repetition operators. The escape sequence contains a number,
making it incompatible with normal command handling. This means
number repetitions don't work with the forward-delete key. If
that annoys anyone enough to fix it, a patch would be welcome.
For now, it will do to make the forward-delete key stop
exhibiting bizarre behaviour (beep + change case + move forward).
src/cmd/ksh93/sh.1
- Copy-edit emacs documentation for VT220-style sequences; map them
to their actual key, otherwise it's meaningless to the reader.
- Document the new forward-delete key behaviour for emacs mode.
- Leave the forward-delete key for vi mode undocumented for now, as
repetitions don't work, so it doesn't really match the vi canon.
(OTOH, it doesn't work in vim, either...)
On ksh93, 'test -t' is equivalent to 'test -t 1' (and of course
"[ -t ]" is equivalent to "[ -t 1 ]").
This is purely for compatibility with ancient Bourne shell
breakage. No other shell supports this. ksh93 should probably keep
it for backwards compatibility, but it should definitely be
disabled in POSIX mode as it is a violation of the standard; 'test
-t' is an instance of 'test "$string"', which tests if the string
is empty, so it should test if the string '-t' is empty (quod non).
This also replaces the fix for 'test -t 1' in a command
substitution with a better one that avoids forking (re: cafe33f0).
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/parse.c:
- qscan(): If the posix option is active, disable the parser-based
hack that converts a simple "[ -t ]" to "[ -t 1 ]".
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/test.c:
- e3(): If the posix option is active, disable the part of the
compatibility hack that was used for compound expressions
that end in '-t', e.g. "[ -t 2 -o -t ]".
- test_unop(): Remove the forking fix for "[ -t 1 ]".
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c:
- tty_check(): This function is used by "[ -t 1 ]" and in other
contexts as well, so a fix here is more comprehensive. Forking
here would cause a segfault, but we don't actually need to. This
adds a fix that simply returns false if we're in a virtual
subshell that is also a command substitution. Since command
substitutions always fork upon redirecting standard output within
them (making them no longer virtual), it is safe to do this.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/bracket.sh
- Add comprehensive regression tests for test/[/[[ -t variants in
command substitutions, in simple and compound expressions, with
and without redirecting stdout to /dev/tty within the comsub.
- Add tests verifying that -o posix disables the old hack.
- Tweak other tests, including one that globally disabled xtrace.
As of 8477d2ce, the mbwide() macro (which tests if we're in a
multibyte locale, i.e. UTF-8) is redefined as a constant 0 if we're
compiling without SHOPT_MULTIBYTE. See src/cmd/ksh93/include/defs.h
The other multibyte macros use mbwide() as well, so they all revert
to the single-byte fallbacks in that case, and the multibyte code
in them is never compiled. See src/lib/libast/include/ast.h
Consequently we can now do a bit of cleanup and get rid of many of
the '#if SHOPT_MULTIBYTE' directives, as the compiler optimiser
will happily remove the multibyte-specific code. This increases the
legibility of the ksh code.
I'm taking the opportunity to fix a few typos and whitespace
formatting glitches as well.
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
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.
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.

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.
When neither '-o emacs' nor '-o vi' is active, there were a couple
of bugs with entering tab characters:
1. Tab completion was erroneously left active. The cause of this
was that raw Bourne edit mode is handled by ed_viread() in vi.c
on shells with wide character support, instead of the default
ed_read() in edit.c, and the former failed to check if vi mode
is active when processing tab characters.
2. When entering literal tab characters, the cursor was moved to
the right only one character, instead of the amount of
characters corresponding to the tab.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/vi.c: getline():
- Before processing '\t' (tab) for command completion, check that
the 'vi' shell option (SH_VI) is active.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c: ed_virt_to_phys():
- When translating literal tabs to on-terminal spaces and when
recalculating the cursor position, remove erroneous checks for
SH_VI; this is also needed in raw Bourne mode. According to my
own testing, this has no effect on emacs mode (knock on wood).
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh:
- Add two regression tests. An odd race condition reveals itself in
either pty or in ksh's raw/Bourne edit mode; see comment in test.
Effect is we have to expect either literal tabs or tabs expanded
to spaces, until that is tracked down and fixed.
Fixes#43.
This commit fixes the bug reported in:
https://github.com/att/ast/issues/682
The following sequence fails in vi mode because ksh looks in the
wrong part of the 'virtual' buffer:
$ touch ~/testfile
$ ls ~/test<tab>
The fix is to change 'virtual[i]' to 'virtual[last_virt]' in the
bugged section of code. The other changes are to make sure listing
files in a directory with something like 'ls /etc/<tab>' calls the
code for Ctrl+L to preserve 'ls /etc/' rather than try (and fail)
to complete the directory name, producing 'ls /etc\n/'. This bugfix
was backported from ksh93v- 2013-10-10-alpha.
src/cmd/ksh93/edit/vi.c
- Backport the bugfix from ksh93v- 2013-10-10-alpha for this
problem.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/pty.sh
- Add a regression test for this issue using pty, adjusted slightly
for a fake home directory in /tmp.
This fixes compiler warnings for implicit-ints:
warning: return type defaults to 'int' [-Wimplicit-int]
1854: sh_tcgetattr(int fd, struct termios *tty)
1863: sh_tcsetattr(int fd, int cmd, struct termios *tty)
cmd/ksh93/edit/edit.c:
- Set the return type explicitly to int and align with the prototype
declared in include/terminal.h.
