• in interactive mode, always look up {LC_{ALL,CTYPE},LANG} environment
variables if setlocale/nl_langinfo(CODESET) doesn’t suffice
• add the ability to call any builtin (some don't make sense or wouldn't
work) directly by analysing argv[0]
• for direct builtin calls, the {LC_{ALL,CTYPE},LANG} environment
variables determine utf8-mode, even if MKSH_ASSUME_UTF8 was set
• when called as builtin, echo behaves POSIXish
• add domainname as alias for true on MirBSD only, to be able to link it
• sync mksh Makefiles with Build.sh output
• adjust manpage wrt release plans
• link some things to mksh now that we have callable builtins:
bin/echo bin/kill bin/pwd bin/sleep (exact matches)
bin/test bin/[ (were scripts before)
bin/domainname=usr/bin/true usr/bin/false (move to /bin/ now)
• drop linked utilities and, except for echo and kill, their manpages
• adjust instbin and link a few more there as well
– possible integer overflows in memory allocation, mostly
‣ multiplication: all are checked now
‣ addition: reviewed them, most were “proven” or guessed to be
“almost” impossible to run over (e.g. when we have a string
whose length is taken it is assumed that the length will be
more than only a few bytes below SIZE_MAX, since code and
stack have to fit); some are checked now (e.g. when one of
the summands is an off_t); most of the unchecked ones are
annotated now
⇒ cost (MirBSD/i386 static): +76 .text
⇒ cost (Debian sid/i386): +779 .text -4 .data
– on Linux targets, setuid() setresuid() setresgid() can fail
with EAGAIN; check for that and, if so, warn once and retry
infinitely (other targets to be added later once we know that
they are “insane”)
⇒ cost (Debian sid/i386): +192 .text (includes .rodata)
• setmode.c: Do overflow checking for realloc() too; switch back
from calloc() to a checked malloc() for simplification while there
• define -DIN_MKSH and let setmode.c look a tad nicer while here
fix the regression test’s results while here, which have been
broken since cid 10049D9BE5254CE65B8
• get rid of separate copyright file which was intended for De-
bian; track down commits in all files of oksh-mirbsd and mksh
to get correct copyright years per-file, as is BSD custom
similarily simple one from scratch, which however performs
better than espie's with AFREE_DEBUG enabled which took away
the benefit of the double-linked-list approach
all of (core) mksh is now MirOS licenced
was hard to type and hard to fix, galloc is also hard to fix, and some
things I learned will probably improve things more but make me use the
original form as base (especially for space savings)
* let sizeofN die though, remove even more casts
* optimise, polish
* regen Makefiles
* sprinkle a few /* CONSTCOND */ while here
we still have issues:
(gdb) r
Starting program: /usr/obj/bin/mksh/mksh -c print\ \$KSH_VERSION
mksh in free(): error: modified (chunk-) pointer
Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
note: there’s still a readlink(1) call left in, for instance, mirmake;
this does not hurt because we initially assumed that readlink(1) does
exist anyway and bundled ours just because some do not have the ‘-f’
option for realpath(2)isation
‣ I/O redirection seems broken:
$ (date; date >/dev/null; date) | wc -l
1 (expected: 2)
‣ other than that: working fine
‣ -YBSD (default) and -YSYSTEM_FIVE don’t work, just -YPOSIX, somehow
• Fix $(…) to `…` for OSF/1 V2.0 /bin/sh
‣ this compiler is FUBAR though:
$ cat >t.c
main() { return (foo()); }
$ cc t.c
ld:
Unresolved :
foo
$ echo $?
0
$ ls -l a.out
-rwxr-xr-x 1 mirbsd users 10835 Jul 21 17:12 a.out
‣ it seems to have ucode, but man is not installed
• new mirtoconf check: mkstemp(3)
• if !HAVE_MKSTEMP (Ultrix), use tempnam(3)
• only use printf(1) if it exists (it doesn’t on Ultrix)
• a few more signals
• add S_ISLNK if the OS doesn’t define it
• add strcasecmp(3) proto for Ultrix (it _is_ in <portability.h>, but
only for -YBSD I think)
• fgrep(1) on Ultrix doesn’t do “-e ① -e ②”
10x DEChengst:#UnixNL for giving access
any more either, and can make use of code sharing between detection
of sys_siglist and sys_signame (and the underscored variants); nuke
the now-useless signames.c file too (merge struct into histrap.c)
car only slower, yes this is possible, and the resulting binary passes the
testsuite just fine), the definition of __RCSID() in <sys/cdefs.h> expands
to something with __attribute__((used)), which triggers a warning, because
__attribute__ in general is supported but the used attribute isn't. Thusly
always use our own strings and get rid of the MULTI_RCSID test (introduced
because __RCSID() on Darwin is inferiour).
Maybe we should fix <sys/cdefs.h> too? #ifdef __SUNPRO_C helps here.
XXX u_int32_t is not ISO C99, but seems to work well enough
XXX if it fails anywhere, we'll see in the build logs
XXX apple doesn't have the standard uint32_t and API doesn't specify it
• sys_siglist_defn: rename to sys_siglist_decl as we're really checking
for the declaration in the headers; change wording to “check if … does
not need to be declared” since we don't need to declare if we don't use
• scan for arc4random, arc4random_push, confstr declarations too
• sh.h: confstr declaration is no longer #ifdef __sun__; sort
place most stuff from /etc/profile in /etc/skel/.mkshrc; admins must make
sure to copy this file to users' homes on upgrade (benefit: non-login but
interactive shells also get all the goodies); fix some quoting; simplify,
reformat, change comments
• from an mksh point of view:
slight internal changes in dot.mkshrc; external commands are now prefixed
with “ulimit -c 0”; $TERM is defined; improvement in determining the host
name (e.g. on Debian if a FQDN is not given); declare locals as such both
in $PS1 and outside; remove superfluous quoting, quote properly; simplify
hd alias, add rot13 alias; place RCS ID at the bottom
and have it return an API-correct const char *
• enhance and stylify comments
• a little KNF and simplifications
• #ifdef DEBUG: replace strchr and strstr with ucstrchr and ucstrstr
that take and return a non-const char *, and fix the violations
• new cstrchr, cstrstr (take and give const char *)
• new vstrchr, vstrstr (take const or not, give boolean value)
• new afreechk(x) = afreechv(x,x) = if (x1) afree(x2, ATEMP)
• new ksh_isdash(str) = (str != NULL) && !strcmp(str, "-")
• replace the only use of strrchr with inlined code to shrink
• minor man page fixes
• Minix 3 signames are autogenerated with gcc
• rename strlfun.c to strlcpy.c since we don't do strlcat(3) anyway,
only strlcpy(3), and shorten it
• dot.mkshrc: move MKSH=… down to the export line
to not disturb the PS1 visual impression ☺
• dot.mkshrc: Lstripcom(): optimise
• bump version
¹) side effect from creating API-correct cstrchr, cstrstr, etc.
uses goto so it must be better ☻
tested on mirbsd-current via both Makefile and Build.sh
* 'sigseen' in Build.sh goes away
* Signal name existence is checked in this order:
have our own¹ -> sys_signame[] -> _sys_signame[] -> build our own²
* Signal description existence is checked in this order:
sys_siglist[] -> _sys_siglist[] -> strsignal() -> NULL³
¹ Predefined list of items, for operating systems where we
cannot build² them, i.e. Plan 9 and Minix 3 (e.g. no $CPP -dD)
² The usual cpp(1) stuff
³ Changed later, see below
* Make $CPP test dependent on $NEED_MKSH_SIGNAME (others can
be added here, this is not absolute)
* Make signal name list generation² dependent on $NEED_MKSH_SIGNAME
* Fix check if the generation worked
* Guarantee that sigtraps[*].name and sigtraps[*].mess are valid
C strings; this makes the code shorter *and* removes a few pos-
sible nil pointer dereferences
* Embed autoconf'd usages of sys_sig* / strsignal / mksh_sigpairs
into inittraps()
* Check for each signal 0<=i<=NSIG that
name is not NULL or "" -> replace with ("%d", i)
mess is not NULL or "" -> replace with ("Signal %d", i)
name does not start (case-insensitive) with "SIG" -> name += 3
* In gettrap(), fix check if signal name starts, case-sensitive
or case-insensitive, depending on need, with "SIG" (bug from millert@)
Other changes:
* Build.sh: ac_test[n]() are documented
* Build.sh: ac_test[n]() can have negative prereqs as well now
* Build.sh: use <<-'EOF' consistently
* bump patchlevel to today
sitory whose ChangeLog follows. mksh R21 is licenced under the MirOS li-
cence, shown in "sh.h", and a two-clause UCB-style licence by Marc Espie
as shown in "alloc.c".
This executable is a fair bit smaller and shorter than our /bin/ksh that
it is designed to eventually replace (as /bin/sh hardlink), with the old
/bin/ksh to completely vanish. It is still in beta testing though, and I
don't think it will compile on other operating systems.
mksh R21 is a completely new port, bringing together the OpenBSD-current
/bin/ksh, the MirOS-current /bin/ksh and the older mksh R20 (which still
was portable, ocvs-based).
- expat as discussed with bsiegert@ today on the phone
- ksh as announced earlier on the lists
* un-hook lib/libexpat from make includes
* remove /usr/include/{,open}ssl upgrade workaround from includes/Makefile
* nuke old bin/ksh
* nuke libexpat and xmlwf
* convert some ancient RCSID styles etc. to more modern stuff
* fix use of CDIAGFLAGS+=, CFLAGS+= and COPTS+= to the correct
variant (include bsd.own.mk _then_ COPTS+=) so they're added
after any user-specified flags
(this is probably lurking in more places than I can imagine)
* fix some indenting, comments, etc.
* make stuff compile (fix warnings/errors)
* add script to review _all_ shlib_version after an openbsd import
* remove two more obsolete /usr/lib/debug/ references
* bin/ps: comment out some SMP code
