Implement persistent history storage:
the strategy is simple at start: loads the existing .sh_history file
at exit dump it.
The implementation respects the HISTFILE variable and its POSIX
definition: ~/.sh_history is used if HISTFILE is not set.

If job control is not enabled, a background job (... &) ignores SIGINT and
SIGQUIT, but this can be reverted using the trap builtin in the same shell
environment.
Using the set builtin to change options would also revert SIGINT and SIGQUIT
to their previous dispositions.
This broke due to r317298. Calling setsignal() reverts the effect of
ignoresig().

The difference between EXERROR and EXEXEC was that EXEXEC passed along
exitstatus and EXERROR set exitstatus to 2 in the handling code.
By changing the places that raised EXERROR to set exitstatus to 2, the
handling of EXERROR and EXEXEC becomes the same.
Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of

Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted

Formerly, return always returned from a function if it was called from a
function, even if there was a closer dot script. This was for compatibility
with the Bourne shell which only allowed returning from functions.
Other modern shells and POSIX return from the function or the dot script,
whichever is closest.
Git 1.8.4's rebase --continue depends on the POSIX behaviour.

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.
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.
See also Austin Group issue #718.
It now passes WARNS=7 with clang on i386.
GCC 4.2.1 does not understand setjmp() properly so will always trigger

The static buffer is unnecessary, we can use the stalloc() stack.

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.
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.
These are called "shell procedures" in the source.
If execve() failed with [ENOEXEC], the shell would reinitialize itself
and execute the program as a script. This requires a fair amount of code
which is not frequently used (most scripts have a #! magic number).
Therefore just execute a new instance of sh (_PATH_BSHELL) to run the
script.
It should use the original exit status, just like falling off the
end of the trap handler.
Outside an EXIT trap, 'exit' is still equivalent to 'exit $?'.
In our implementation and most others, a break or continue in a dot script
can break or continue a loop outside the dot script. This should cause all
further commands in the dot script to be skipped. However, cmdloop() did not
know about this and continued to parse and execute commands from the dot
script.
As described in the man page, a return in a dot script in a function returns
from the function, not only from the dot script. There was a similar issue
as with break and continue. In various other shells, the return appears to
return from the dot script, but POSIX seems not very clear about this.
Although "--" historically has not been required to be recognized for
certain special builtins that do not take options in POSIX, some other
implementations recognize options for them, requiring scripts to use "--" or
avoid operands starting with "-".
Operands starting with "-" can be avoided with eval by prepending a space,
and cannot occur with break, continue, exit, return and shift as they only
take numbers, nor with times as it does not take operands. With . and exec,
avoiding "-" is not so easy as it may require reimplementing the PATH
search; therefore the current proposal for POSIX is to require recognition
of "--" for them.
We continue to accept other strings starting with "-" as operands to . and
exec, and also "--" if it is alone to . (which would otherwise be invalid
anyway).
Unset PWD if it is incorrect and no value for it can be determined.
This preserves the logical current directory across shell invocations.
Example (assuming /home is a symlink):
$ cd
$ pwd
/home/foo
$ sh
$ pwd
/home/foo
Formerly the second pwd would show the physical path (symlinks resolved).
Reset the exception handler in the child to main's.
This avoids inappropriate double cleanups or shell duplication when the
exception is caught, such as 'fc' and future 'command eval' and 'command .'.
It is already done by evalcommand(), unless special-ness has been removed,
in which case variable assignments should not persist. (These are currently
always special builtins, but this will change later: command builtin,
command substitution.)
This also fixes a memory leak when calling . with variable assignments.
Example:
valgrind --leak-check=full sh -c 'x=1 . /dev/null; x=2'
* increase buffer size from 100 to 256 bytes
* remove implied flush from out2str(), in particular this avoids unnecessary
flushing in the middle of a -x tracing line
* rename dprintf() to out2fmt_flush(), make it flush out2 and use this
function in various places where flushing is desired after an error
message
This change only affects strings passed to -c, when the -s
option is not used.
The approach is to check if there may be additional data
in the string after parsing each command. If there is none,
use the EV_EXIT flag so that a fork may be omitted in
specific cases.
If there are empty lines after the command, the check will
not see the end and forks will not be omitted. The same
thing seems to happen in bash.
Example:
sh -c 'ps lT'
No longer shows a shell process waiting for ps to finish.
