Grammatically, redirections may occur anywhere within a command
line and are removed after processing them, whereas a process
substitution (<(commandlist) or >(commandlist)) is replaced by a
file name which should be treated as just another simple word.
So the following should not be a syntax error:
$ cat </dev/null <(true)
-ksh: syntax error: `)' unexpected
$ cat </dev/null >(true)
-ksh: syntax error: `)' unexpected
$ cat >/dev/null <(true)
-ksh: syntax error: `)' unexpected
$ cat >/dev/null >(true)
-ksh: syntax error: `)' unexpected
This bug is in every ksh93 version.
The problem is in the parser (parse.c). The process substitution is
misparsed as a redirection due to inout() recursively parsing
multiple redirections without recognising process substitutions.
inout() is mistaking '<(' for '<' and '>(' for '>', which explains
the incorrect syntax error.
This also causes the following to fail to detect a syntax error:
$ cat >&1 <(README.md
[the contents of README.md are shown]
...and other syntax errors detected in the wrong spot, for example:
$ { true; } <(echo wrong)
-ksh: syntax error: `wrong' unexpected
which should be:
-ksh: syntax error: `<(' unexpected
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/parse.c:
- Add global inout_found_procsub flag.
- inout(): On encountering a process substitution, set this flag
and return, otherwise clear the flag.
- simple(): After calling inout(), check this flag and, if set,
jump back to where process substitutions are parsed.
