Functions can now be correctly redefined and unset in subshell
environments (such as ( ... ), $(command substitutions), etc).
Before this fix, attempts to do this were silently ignored (!!!),
causing the wrong code (i.e.: the function by the same name from
the parent shell environment) to be executed.
Redefining and unsetting functions within "shared" command
substitutions of the form '${ ...; }' is also fixed.
Prior discussion: https://github.com/att/ast/issues/73
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/parse.c:
- A fix from George Koelher (URL above). He writes:
| The parser can set t->comnamp to the wrong function.
| Suppose that the shell has executed
| foo() { echo WRONG; }
| and is now parsing
| (foo() { echo ok; } && foo)
| The parser was setting t->comnamp to the wrong foo. [This
| fix] doesn't set t->comnamp unless it was a builtin. Now the
| subshell can't call t->comnamp, so it looks for foo and finds
| the ok foo in the subshell's function tree.
src/cmd/ksh93/bltins/typeset.c:
- Unsetting functions in a virtual/non-forked subshell still
doesn't work: nv_open() fails to find the function. To work
around this problem, make 'unset -f' fork the subshell into its
own process with sh_subfork().
- The workaround exposed another bug: if we unset a function in a
subshell tree that overrode a function by the same name in the
main shell, then nv_delete() exposes the function from the main
shell scope. Since 'unset -f' now always forks a subshell, the
fix is to simply walk though troot's parent views and delete any
such zombie functions as well. (Without this, the 4 'more fun'
tests in tests/subshell.sh fail.)
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/subshell.c: sh_subfuntree():
- Fix function (re)definitions and unsetting in "shared" command
substitutions of the form '${ commandlist; }' (i.e.: if
sp->shp->subshare is true). Though internally this is a weird
form of virtual subshell, the manual page says it does not
execute in a subshell (meaning, all changes must survive it), so
a subshell function tree must not be created for these.
src/cmd/ksh93/tests/subshell.sh:
- Add regression tests related to these bugfixes. Test unsetting
and redefining a function in all three forms of virtual subshell.

TODO for AT&T ksh93, 93u+m bugfix branch
|
||
|
||
______
|
||
Fix or remove broken default aliases:
|
||
|
||
- Remove alias times='{ { time;} 2>&1;}' which does not produce POSIX-
|
||
compliant output; reimplement as a proper POSIX-compliant builtin.
|
||
In any case, implementing a standard utility as an alias is unacceptable
|
||
as 'unalias -a' (remove all aliases) should not remove standard utilities!
|
||
Backport the builtin from the abandoned Vashisht/Rader branch:
|
||
https://github.com/att/ast/pull/1332
|
||
|
||
- Remove alias command='command '. Continuing alias substitution after
|
||
'command' (due to the final space in the alias) is inherently broken, as
|
||
aliases may contain arbitrary shell grammar. For instance, when combining
|
||
this default alias with the default 'times' alias ('command times'), which
|
||
is perfectly valid per POSIX, you get a syntax error!
|
||
|
||
- Remove alias nohup='nohup '. Same reason as for 'command ' above.
|
||
|
||
- Remove pointless default aliases 'fc' and 'type'; these are already
|
||
implemented as normal shell builtins. Add man page entries for these.
|
||
|
||
______
|
||
Fix currently known bugs affecting shell scripting. These are identified by
|
||
their modernish IDs. For exact details, see code/comments in:
|
||
https://github.com/modernish/modernish/tree/0.16/lib/modernish/cap/
|
||
|
||
- BUG_BRACQUOT: shell quoting within bracket patterns has no effect. This
|
||
bug means the '-' retains it special meaning of 'character range', and an
|
||
initial ! (and, on some shells, ^) retains the meaning of negation, even
|
||
in quoted strings within bracket patterns, including quoted variables.
|
||
|
||
- BUG_CMDEXPAN: if the 'command' command results from an expansion, it acts
|
||
like 'command -v', showing the path of the command instead of executing it.
|
||
For example:
|
||
v=command; "$v" ls
|
||
or
|
||
set -- command ls; "$@"
|
||
don't work.
|
||
|
||
- BUG_CMDSPASGN: preceding a "special builtin"[*] with 'command' does not
|
||
stop preceding invocation-local variable assignments from becoming global.
|
||
[*] https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html#tag_18_14
|
||
|
||
- BUG_CMDSPEXIT: preceding a "special builtin"[*] (other than 'eval', 'exec',
|
||
'return' or 'exit') with 'command' does not always stop it from exiting
|
||
the shell if the builtin encounters error.
|
||
[*] https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html#tag_18_14
|
||
|
||
- BUG_CSUBSTDO: If standard output (file descriptor 1) is closed before
|
||
entering a $(command substitution), and any other file descriptors are
|
||
redirected within the command substitution, commands such as 'echo' will
|
||
not work within the command substitution, acting as if standard output is
|
||
still closed.
|
||
|
||
- BUG_IFSGLOBS: In glob pattern matching (as in case or parameter
|
||
substitution with # and %), if IFS starts with ? or * and the "$*"
|
||
parameter expansion inserts any IFS separator characters, those characters
|
||
are erroneously interpreted as wildcards when quoted "$*" is used as the
|
||
glob pattern.
|
||
|
||
- BUG_KUNSETIFS: ksh93: Can't unset IFS under very specific circumstances.
|
||
unset -v IFS is a known POSIX shell idiom to activate default field
|
||
splitting. With this bug, the unset builtin silently fails to unset IFS
|
||
(i.e. fails to activate field splitting) if we're executing an eval or a
|
||
trap and a number of specific conditions are met.
|
||
|
||
- BUG_LOOPRET2: If a 'return' command is given without a status argument
|
||
within the set of conditional commands in a 'while' or 'until' loop (i.e.,
|
||
between 'while'/'until' and 'do'), the exit status passed down from the
|
||
previous command is ignored and the function returns with status 0
|
||
instead.
|
||
|
||
- BUG_MULTIBIFS: We're on a UTF-8 locale and the shell supports UTF-8
|
||
characters in general (i.e. we don't have WRN_MULTIBYTE) – however, using
|
||
multi-byte characters as IFS field delimiters still doesn't work. For
|
||
example, "$*" joins positional parameters on the first byte of IFS instead
|
||
of the first character.
|
||
|
||
- BUG_TESTERR1A: test/[ exits with a non-error false status (1) if an
|
||
invalid argument is given to an operator.
