Replace the RESET blocks with regular functions and a reset() function that
calls them all.
This code generation tool is unusual and does not appear to provide much
benefit. I do not think isolating the knowledge about which modules need to
be reset is worth an almost 500-line build tool and wider scope for
variables used by the reset functions.
Also, relying on reset functions is often wrong: the cleanup should be done
in exception handlers so that no stale state remains after 'command eval'
and the like.
These cleanup operations are not needed because they are already performed
after an optimized command substitution (whether there was an error or not).
Although using -i with -c does not seem very useful, it seems inappropriate
to read commands from the terminal in this case.
Side effect: if the -s -c extension is used and the -s option is turned off
using 'set +s' during the interactive part, the shell now exits after an
error or interrupt. Note that POSIX only specifies -s as option to sh, not
to set.

The linked list of stack marks may cause problems if the allocation stack is
used between an exception and a higher-level popstackmark(), as it may then
touch a stack mark that is local to a function which has returned.
Also, the adjustment compares to a pointer passed to realloc(), which is
undefined behaviour.
Instead of adjusting stack marks when reallocating stack blocks, ensure that
such an adjustment is never necessary by fixing a small piece of memory in
place at a stack mark. This also simplifies the code.
To avoid the problems reported in bin/175922, it remains necessary to call
setstackmark() after popstackmark() if the stack mark remains in use.
* If read -t times out, return status as if interrupted by SIGALRM
(formerly 1).
* If a trapped signal interrupts read, return status 128+sig (formerly 1).
* If [EINTR] occurs but there is no trap, retry the read (for example
because of a SIGWINCH in interactive mode).
* If a read error occurs, write an error message and return status 2.
As before, a variable assignment error returns 2 and discards the remaining
data read.
Use non-blocking I/O to write as much as the pipe will accept (often 64K,
but it can be as little as 4K), avoiding the need for the ugly PIPESIZE
constant. If PIPESIZE was set too high, a deadlock would occur.
It now passes WARNS=7 with clang on i386.
GCC 4.2.1 does not understand setjmp() properly so will always trigger
-Wuninitialized. I will not add the volatile keywords to suppress this.
In some other shells, things like $((a);(b)) are command substitutions.
Also, there are shells that have an extension ((ARITH)) that evaluates an
arithmetic expression and returns status 1 if the result is zero, 0
otherwise. This extension may lead to ambiguity with two subshells starting
in sequence.
If syntactically invalid job identifiers are to be taken as jobs that exited
with status 127, this should not apply to options, so that we can add
options later if need be.
This ensures 'return' in a trap returns the correct status to the caller.
If evalskip is not set or if it is overridden by a previous evalskip, keep
the old behaviour of restoring the exit status from before the trap.
If a stack mark is set while the current stack block is empty, the stack
block may move later on (because of realloc()) and the stack mark needs to
be updated. This updating does not happen after popstackmark() has been
called; therefore, call setstackmark() again if the stack mark is still
being used.
For some reason, this only affects a few users. I cannot reproduce it. The
situation seems quite rare as well because an empty stack block would
usually be freed (by popstackmark()) before execution reaches a
setstackmark() call.

Expand here documents at the same point other redirections are expanded but
use a non-fork subshell environment (like simple command substitutions) for
compatibility. Substitition errors result in an empty here document like
before.
As a result, a fork is avoided for short (<4K) expanded here documents.
Unexpanded here documents (with quoted end marker after <<) are not affected
by this change. They already only forked when >4K.
Side effects:
* Order of expansion is slightly different.
* Slow expansions are not executed in parallel with the redirected command.
* A non-fork subshell environment is subtly different from a forked process.
If a loop contained certain commands (such as redirected compound commands),
the temporary memory for the redirection was not freed between iterations of
the loop but only after the loop.
Put a stackmark in evaltree(), freeing memory whenever a node has been
evaluated. Some other stackmarks are then redundant; remove them.
Example:
while :; do { :; } </dev/null; done
Instead of rechecking relative paths for all hashed utilities after a cd,
track if any utility in cmdtable depends on a relative path in PATH.
If there is such a utility, cd clears the entire table.
As a result, the '*' in hash no longer happens.
Accessing sys_siglist directly requires rtld to copy it from libc to the sh
executable's BSS. Also, strsignal() will put in the signal number for
unknown signals (FreeBSD-specific) so we need not do that ourselves.
Unfortunately, there is no function for sys_signame.
If there is a write error on stdout, a message will be printed (to stderr)
and the exit status will be changed to 2 if it would have been 0 or 1.

Although sufficient memory is available for a longer string in cmdname,
this is undefined behaviour anyway.
Side effect: for alignment reasons, an additional byte of memory is

This reduces code duplication and code size.
/usr/bin/printf is not affected.
Side effect: different error messages when certain builtins are passed

When waiting for child processes using "wait" or if "set -T" is in effect, a
signal interrupts the wait. Make sure there is no window where the signal
handler may be invoked (setting a flag) just before going to sleep.
There is a similar race condition in the shell language, but scripts can
avoid it by exiting from the trap handler or enforcing synchronization using
a fifo.
If SIGCHLD is not trapped, a signal handler must be installed for it. Only
install this handler for the duration of the wait to avoid triggering
unexpected [EINTR] errors elsewhere.
Note that for some reason only SIGINT and SIGQUIT interrupt a "wait"
command. This remains the case.
Examples:
export x=~
now expands the tilde
local y=$1
is now safe, even if $1 contains IFS characters or metacharacters.
For a word to "look like an assignment", it must start with a name followed
by an equals sign, none of which may be quoted.
The special treatment applies when the first word (potentially after
"command") is "export", "readonly" or "local". There may be quoting
characters but no expansions. If "local" is overridden with a function there
is no special treatment ("export" and "readonly" cannot be overridden with a
function).
If things like
local arr=(1 2 3)
are ever allowed in the future, they cannot call a "local" function. This
would either be a run-time error or it would call the builtin.
This matches Austin Group bug #351, planned for the next issue of POSIX.1.

This uses vfork() for simple commands and command substitutions containing a
single simple command, invoking an external program under certain conditions
(no redirections or variable assignments, non-interactive shell, no job
control). These restrictions limit the amount of code executed in a vforked

There is a large speedup (for example 35%) in microbenchmarks. The
difference in buildkernel is smaller (for example 0.5%) but still

Free expanded case text before executing commands.
Remove impossible evalskip checks (expanding an argument cannot set
evalskip anymore since $(break) and the like are properly executed in a

Because sh executes commands in subshell environments without forking in
more and more cases (particularly from 8.0 on), it makes sense to describe
subshell environments more precisely using ideas from POSIX, together with
some FreeBSD-specific items.
In particular, the hash and times builtins may not behave as if their state
is copied for a subshell environment while leaving the parent shell
environment unchanged.
* Shell patterns are also for ${var#pat} and the like.
* An '!' by itself will not trigger pathname generation so do not call it a

POSIX requires a -h option to sh and set, to locate and remember utilities
invoked by functions as they are defined. Given that this
locate-and-remember process is optional elsewhere, it seems safe enough to
make this option do nothing.
POSIX does not specify a long name for this option. Follow ksh in calling it
"trackall".
Replacing ;; with the new control operator ;& will cause the next list to be
executed as well without checking its pattern, continuing until a list ends
with ;; or until the end of the case statement. This is like omitting
"break" in a C "switch" statement.
The sequence ;& was formerly invalid.
This feature is proposed for the next POSIX issue in Austin Group issue
#449.
The eval special builtin now runs the code with EV_EXIT if it was run
with EV_EXIT itself.
In particular, this eliminates one fork when a command substitution contains
an eval command that ends with an external program or a subshell.
This is similar to what r220978 did for functions.

The function name expandstr() and the general idea of doing this kind of
expansion by treating the text as a here document without end marker is from
dash.
All variants of parameter expansion and arithmetic expansion also work (the
latter is not required by POSIX but it does not take extra code and many
other shells also allow it).
Command substitution is prevented because I think it causes too much code to
be re-entered (for example creating an unbounded recursion of trace lines).
Unfortunately, our LINENO is somewhat crude, otherwise PS4='$LINENO+ ' would
be quite useful.
The "exp" builtin is undocumented, non-standard and not very useful.
If exp's return value is not used, something like
VAR=$(exp EXPRESSION)
is equivalent to
VAR=$((EXPRESSION))
except that errors in the expression are fatal and quoting special
characters is not needed in the latter case.
If exp's return value is used, something like
if exp EXPRESSION >/dev/null
can be replaced by
if [ $((EXPRESSION)) -ne 0 ]
with similar differences.
The exp-run showed that "let" is close enough to bash's and ksh's builtin
that removing it would break a few ports. Therefore, "let" remains in 9.x.

This reflects failure to determine the pathname of the new directory in the
exit status (1). Normally, cd returns successfully if it did chdir() and the
call was successful.
In POSIX, -e only has meaning with -P; because our -L is not entirely
compliant and may fall back to -P mode, -e has some effect with -L as well.
This is sometimes used with eval or old-style command substitution, and most
shells other than ash derivatives allow it.
It can also be used with scripts that violate POSIX's requirement on the
application that they end in a newline (scripts must be text files except
that line length is unlimited).
Example:
v=`cat <<EOF
foo
EOF`
echo $v
This commit does not add support for the similar construct with new-style
command substitution, like
v=$(cat <<EOF
foo
EOF)
This continues to require a newline after the terminator.
Because we have no iconv in base, support for other charsets is not
possible.
Note that \u/\U are processed using the locale that was active when the
shell started. This is necessary to avoid behaviour that depends on the
parse/execute split (for example when placing braces around an entire
script). Therefore, UTF-8 encoding is implemented manually.
?, [...] patterns match codepoints instead of bytes. They do not match
invalid sequences. [...] patterns must not contain invalid sequences
otherwise they will not match anything. This is so that ${var#?} removes the
first codepoint, not the first byte, without putting UTF-8 knowledge into
the ${var#pattern} code. However, * continues to match any string and an
invalid sequence matches an identical invalid sequence. (This differs from
fnmatch(3).)
This ensures that mbrtowc(3) can be used directly once it has been verified
that there is no CTL* byte. Dealing with a CTLESC byte within a multibyte
character would be complicated.
The new values do occur in iso-8859-* encodings. This decreases efficiency
slightly but should not affect correctness.
Caveat: Updating across this change and rebuilding without cleaning may
yield a subtly broken sh binary. By default, make buildworld will clean and
avoid problems.
A string between $' and ' may contain backslash escape sequences similar to
the ones in a C string constant (except that a single-quote must be escaped
and a double-quote need not be). Details are in the sh(1) man page.
This construct is useful to include unprintable characters, tabs and
newlines in strings; while this can be done with a command substitution
containing a printf command, that needs ugly workarounds if the result is to
end with a newline as command substitution removes all trailing newlines.
The construct may also be useful in future to describe unprintable
characters without needing to write those characters themselves in 'set -x',
'export -p' and the like.
The implementation attempts to comply to the proposal for the next issue of
the POSIX specification. Because this construct is not in POSIX.1-2008,
using it in scripts intended to be portable is unwise.
Matching the minimal locale support in the rest of sh, the \u and \U
sequences are currently not useful.

If EV_EXIT causes an exit, use the exception mechanism to unwind
redirections and local variables. This way, if the final command is a
redirected command, an EXIT trap now executes without the redirections.
Because of these changes, EV_EXIT can now be inherited by the body of a
function, so do so. This means that a function no longer prevents a fork
before an exec being skipped, such as in
f() { head -1 /etc/passwd; }; echo $(f)
Wrapping a single builtin in a function may still cause an otherwise
unnecessary fork with command substitution, however.
An exit command or -e failure still invokes the EXIT trap with the
original redirections and local variables in place.
Note: this depends on SHELLPROC being gone. A SHELLPROC depended on
keeping the redirections and local variables and only cleaning up the
state to restore them.
This is only a problem if IFS contains digits, which is unusual but valid.
Because of an incorrect fix for PR bin/12137, "${#parameter}" was treated
as ${#parameter}. The underlying problem was that "${#parameter}"

out.

POSIX does not require the shell to fork for a subshell environment, and we
use that possibility in various ways (command substitutions with a single
command and most subshells that are the final command of a shell process).
Therefore do not tie subshells to forking in the man page.
Command substitutions with expansions are a bit strange, causing a fork for
$(...$(($x))...) because $x might expand to y=2; they will probably be
changed later but this is how they work now.
These already worked: $# ${#} ${##} ${#-} ${#?}
These now work as well: ${#+word} ${#-word} ${##word} ${#%word}

$? or it could be $# giving an error in the (impossible) case that it is not
set. We continue to use the former interpretation as it seems more useful.
