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'
- Redirecting fds that were not open before kept two copies of the
redirected file.
sh -c '{ :; } 7>/dev/null; fstat -p $$; true'
(both fd 7 and 10 remained open)
- File descriptors used to restore things after redirection were not
set close-on-exec, instead they were explicitly closed before executing
a program normally and before executing a shell procedure. The latter
must remain but the former is replaced by close-on-exec.
sh -c 'exec 7</; { exec fstat -p $$; } 7>/dev/null; true'
(fd 10 remained open)
The examples above are simpler than the testsuite because I do not want to
use fstat or procstat in the testsuite.
* exception handlers are now run with interrupts disabled, which avoids
many race conditions
* fix some cases where SIGINT only aborts one command and continues the
script, in particular if a SIGINT causes an EINTR error which trumped the
interrupt.
Example:
sh -c 'echo < /some/fifo; echo This should not be printed'
The fifo should not have writers. When pressing ctrl+c to abort the open,
the shell used to continue with the next command.
Example:
sh -c '/bin/echo < /some/fifo; echo This should not be printed'
Similar. Note, however, that this particular case did not and does not work
in interactive mode with job control enabled.
This avoids weirdness when 'fc -e vi' or the like is done and there is a
syntax error in the file. Formerly an interactive shell tried to execute
stuff after the syntax error and exited.
This should also avoid similar issues with 'command eval' and 'command .'
when 'command' is implemented properly as in NetBSD sh.
Special builtins did not have this problem since errors in them cause the
shell to exit or to reset various state such as the current command input
file.
* 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 is similar to the Solaris utility of the same name.
Some use cases:
* rc.subr's wait_for_pids
* interactive use, e.g. to shut down the computer when some task is done
even if the task is already running

This seems more useful and will likely be in the next POSIX standard.
Also document more precisely in the man page what set -u does (note that
$@, $* and $! are the only special parameters that can ever be unset, all
the others are always set, although they may be empty).
the line number where the command substitution started.
This applies to both the $() and `` forms but is most useful for ``
because the other line number is relative to the enclosed text there.
(For older versions, -v can be used as a workaround.)
According to the man page, when neither -H/-L nor -F/-d/-l are given, -H is
implied. This agrees with POSIX, GNU ls and Solaris ls. This means that -p,
although it is very similar to -F, does not prevent the implicit following
of symlinks.

This also fixes that trying to execute a non-regular file with a command
name without '/' returns 127 instead of 126.
The fix is rather simplistic: treat CMDUNKNOWN as if the command were found
as an external program. The resulting fork is a bit wasteful but executing
unknown commands should not be very frequent.

Due to the amount of code removed by this, it seems that allowing unmatched
quotes was a deliberate imitation of System V sh and real ksh. Most other
shells do not allow unmatched quotes (e.g. bash, zsh, pdksh, NetBSD /bin/sh,
dash).

I do not consider this a bug because POSIX permits it and argument strings

Note that this changes error reporting behaviour somewhat - before,
no error was reported if ACL couldn't be copied because the target
filesystem doesn't support ACLs. Now, it will be reported - of course,
only if there actually is an ACL to copy.

Empty pairs of braces are represented by a NULL node pointer, just like
empty lines at the top level.
Support for empty pairs of braces may be removed later. They make the code
more complex, have inconsistent behaviour (may or may not change $?), are
not specified by POSIX and are not allowed by some other shells like bash,
dash and ksh93.

is identical to the mode computed from that ACL will modify the ACL.
For example, mode computed from the following ACL is 0600:
user:kamila:rwx--------C--:------:allow
owner@:--x-----------:------:deny
owner@:rw-p---A-W-Co-:------:allow
group@:rwxp----------:------:deny
group@:--------------:------:allow
everyone@:rwxp---A-W-Co-:------:deny
everyone@:------a-R-c--s:------:allow
However, applying that mode (chmod 0600) changes the ACL into this:
user:kamila:rwx-----------:------:deny
user:kamila:rwx--------C--:------:allow
owner@:--x-----------:------:deny
owner@:rw-p---A-W-Co-:------:allow
group@:rwxp----------:------:deny
group@:--------------:------:allow
everyone@:rwxp---A-W-Co-:------:deny
everyone@:------a-R-c--s:------:allow
In chmod(1) utility, there is an optimisation, which makes it not
call chmod(2) if the mode of the file is the same as the new mode.
Disable that optimisation for files which may have NFSv4 ACLs.

(EV_EXIT). The fork is still done as normal if any traps are active.
In many cases, the fork can be avoided even without this change by using {}
instead of (), but in practice many scripts use (), likely because the
syntax is simpler.
Example:
sh -c '(/bin/sleep 10)& sleep 1;ps -p $! -o comm='
Now prints "sleep" instead of "sh". $! is more useful this way.
Most shells (dash, bash, pdksh, ksh93, zsh) seem to print "sleep" for this.
Example:
sh -c '( ( ( (ps jT))))'
Now shows no waiting shell processes instead of four.
Most shells (dash, bash, pdksh, ksh93, zsh) seem to show zero or one.

Formerly, it was possible for the file to be created between the check if it
existed and the open; the contents would then be lost.
Because this must use O_EXCL, noclobber > will not create a file through a
symlink anymore. This agrees with behaviour of other shells.
