From README:
FILESCAN on Experimental option that allows fast reading of files
using while < file;do ...; done and allowing fields in
each line to be accessed as positional parameters.
As SHOPT_FILESCAN has been enabled by default since ksh 93l
2001-06-01, the filescan loop is now documented in the manual page
and the compile-time option is no longer considered experimental.
We must disable this at runtime if --posix is active because it
breaks a portable use case: POSIXly, 'while <file; do stuff; done'
repeatedly excutes 'stuff' while 'file' can successfully be opened
for reading, without actually reading from 'file'.
This also backports a bugfix from the 93v- beta. Reproducer:
$ echo 'one two three' >foo
$ while <foo; do printf '[%s] ' "$@"; echo; done
[one two three]
Expected output:
[one] [two] [three]
The bug is that "$@" acts like "$*", joining all the positional
parameters into one word though it should be generating one word
for each.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/macro.c: varsub():
- Backport fix for the bug described above. I do not understand the
opaque macro.c code well enough yet to usefully describe the fix.
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c: sh_exec():
- Improved sanity check for filescan loop: do not recognise it if
the simple command includes variable assignments, more than one
redirection, or an output or append redirection.
- Disable filescan loops if --posix is active.
- Another 93v- fix: handle interrupts (errno==EINTR) when closing
the input file.
