calls in Build.sh, we need HOSTCC for that… which we should do, using BER
or something encoded for integers, and pregenerated hashtables as planned)
also, bump to R50 beta, due to today’s language changes
use errorf() while nameref states were being changed (by almost completely
eliminating the global variable) and the readonly first array variable
bypass (typo/refactoro); also, whitespace, one int → bool, and add a
comment wrt. the parser rewrite talked about with igli during a fever ;)
‣ not like oksh did, but using mksh’s built-in features
• handle suggested __pure additions
• revert cid 1004F7F096867C83CF0
‣ always use our wcwidth code
‣ only use our strlcpy code if none found
• fix a couple of gcc-snapshot and clang/scan-build warnings
• mksh R49~rc1
Add a proper suspend builtin that saves/restores the tty and pgrp
as needed instead of an alias that just sends SIGSTOP. Login shells
may be suspended if they are not running in an orphan process group.
TODO: I am seriously considering following Chet and changing
the way this works, by explicitly dropping privs unless the
shell is run with -p. Every other shell does it like mksh,
except Heirloom sh, which on the other hand doesn’t know any
explicit set -p or set +p (though it doesn’t know set +foo
for any foo either).
┌──┤ QUESTION: Do we need the ability to do this:
│ tg@blau:~ $ ./suidmksh -p -c 'whoami; set +p; whoami'
│ root
│ tg
If not, I’m seriously considering to drop set ±p as well,
only parse -p on the command line, with +p being the default,
and dropping FPRIVILEGED.
Thanks to RT for noticing and jilles for initial follow-up
discussion, as well as Chet Ramey for doing the sane/secure
thing instead of following Debian.
• make parsing numbers with leading digit-zero as octal independent of
mksh/lksh and dependent on set -o posix; adjust manpages to match
• warn about these changes and why mksh uses 32-bit consistent arithmetics
and point people to lksh for host-long undefined-behaviour arithmetics
• point out, explicitly, that it is *legal* for the operating environment
to make 'print $((2147483647 + 1))' (on a 32-bit system; adjust for a
64-bit system) to run 'rm -rf ~ /' instead
• correct order of built-in commands; use POSIX special versus “all others”
plus “keeps assignments” as distinction, no longer play POSIX regular vs.
others game; sync manpage
• fix LP#1156707: map (( internally to “let]” which is no valid function
name and so can’t be overridden but is unlikely to be used otherwhere
and not strictly permitted (by POSIX) anyway
• we do not need -Wno-overflow any more, either
• bump to R45
is not found, from a suggestion by RT (LP: #912691)
• try harder (in a loop) to acquire a file lock if the locking mechanism
documents EINTR is a possibility (fcntl always, flock on Linux not .Ox)
• use -std=c99 not -std=gnu99 if it must be at all
00:45 -!- variable [root@freebsd/developer/variable] has joined #!/bin/mksh
• +b *!*root@*, +b $a:root, +b $r:root on one more channel
• certain checks to prevent:
00:47 < variable> wjcw: sh.h:308: error: conflicting types for 'getrusage'
01:19 < variable> oh
01:19 < variable> I needed to run Build.sh
• 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
