demanded by POSIX. - A redirection error is only fatal (meaning the execution of a shell script is terminated) for special built-ins. Previously it was fatal for all shell builtins, causing problems like the one reported in PR 88845. - Variable assignments remain in effect for special built-ins. - Option or operand errors are only fatal for special built-ins. This change also makes errors from 'fc' non-fatal (I could not find any reasons for this behaviour). Somewhat independently from the above down-grade the error handling in the shift built-in if the operand is bigger than $# from an error() call (which is now fatal) to a return 1. I'm not sure if this should be considered a POSIX "operand error", however this change is needed for now as we trigger that error while building libncurses. Comparing with other shells, zsh does the same as our sh before this change (write a diagnostic, return 1), bash behaves as our sh after this commit (no diagnostic, return 1) and ksh93 and NetBSD's sh treat it as a fatal error. |
