In rare cases this may cause the universal variable file to drop
an update, if two happen at the same time and HOME is on an nfs mount.
But this is considered better than hanging if nfs is lockless.
Fixes#7968.
env_universal_t locking discipline is now managed by env.cpp.
That is, the shared instance of env_universal_t is managed by a lock.
We no longer need to have an internal lock, so remove it.
Previously an instance of env_universal_t had to be created with a file
path. Switch to allowing it to be created as empty, and later initialized
with the file path. This will help simplify the case where universal
variables are not used; they may simply be not initialized and so just
appear empty.
This avoids using locks for the history file if the file appears to be on
a remote file system, like NFS. This is to avoid hangs if the filesystem
does not support locking.
If locking is not enabled, then in rare cases, history items may be
dropped if multiple sessions try to write to the history file at once.
This is thought to be better than hanging. Hopefully the recent change to
require a trailing newline will avoid propagating partial items.
Prior to this fix, an escaped character like \x41 (hex for ascii A)
was interpreted the same was as A, so that $\x41 would be the same
as $A. Fix this by inserting an INTERNAL_SEPARATOR before these escapes,
so that we no longer treat it as part of the variable name.
This also affects brackets; don't treat echo $foo\1331\135 the same as
echo $foo[1].
Fixes#7969
Recently Safari seems to hang with fish webconfig. This is apparently
because Safari is opening a socket and not writing to it, causing
webconfig to hang until the timeout (30 seconds). It's not clear why.
Use ThreadingMixIn so that FishConfigTCPServer can handle more
than one connection at a time. This fixes the hang under Safari.
In the named pipe notifier, notifications are broadcast by writing to the
pipe, waiting briefly, and then reading it back. When clients see the pipe
as readable, they report the uvars as potentially changed and fish will
sync against the uvar file.
Prior to this change, we synced repeatedly when the pipe was readable. But
we can do somewhat better by also checking the named pipe's timestamp (via
fstat). If the pipe has not changed, then we can skip the sync even if
there is currently data lingering on it.
With this change we should sync against the variable file less often
(typically once or twice per write); in the next change we refactor this
logic so it's easier to follow.
This is the last time I'm doing this before I rip these particular
tests out.
As far as I know there is no actual *problem* here, this is just
failing through a combination of macOS and Github Actions being slow
as molasses.
So it is wasting our time and therefore worse than not having these
tests at all, especially since they very rarely fail for good reasons.
We would leave some escape delay tests intact with generous timeouts, which would provide 90%
of the coverage with 10% of the hassle.
This removes the "did_visit" message because it doesn't really add
anything.
For example:
```
ast-construction: make job_list 0x55a6d19729f0
ast-construction: make job_conjunction 0x55a6d1971c00
ast-construction: will_visit job_conjunction 0x55a6d1971c00
ast-construction: will_visit job 0x55a6d1971c18
ast-construction: variable_assignment_list size: 0
ast-construction: will_visit statement 0x55a6d1971c48
ast-construction: make decorated_statement 0x55a6d1972650
ast-construction: will_visit decorated_statement 0x55a6d1972650
ast-construction: make argument_or_redirection 0x55a6d1968310
ast-construction: will_visit argument_or_redirection 0x55a6d1968310
ast-construction: make argument 0x55a6d197b0b0
ast-construction: did_visit argument_or_redirection 0x55a6d1968310
ast-construction: argument_or_redirection_list size: 1
ast-construction: did_visit decorated_statement 0x55a6d1972650
ast-construction: did_visit statement 0x55a6d1971c48
ast-construction: job_continuation_list size: 0
ast-construction: did_visit job 0x55a6d1971c18
ast-construction: job_conjunction_continuation_list size: 0
ast-construction: did_visit job_conjunction 0x55a6d1971c00
ast-construction: job_list size: 1
```
those "did_visit" messages all correspond to "will_visit" ones. They
are effectively block delimiters like `end` or `}`.
If we remove them it turns into:
```
ast-construction: make job_list 0x55a6d19729f0
ast-construction: make job_conjunction 0x55a6d1971c00
ast-construction: will_visit job_conjunction 0x55a6d1971c00
ast-construction: will_visit job 0x55a6d1971c18
ast-construction: variable_assignment_list size: 0
ast-construction: will_visit statement 0x55a6d1971c48
ast-construction: make decorated_statement 0x55a6d1972650
ast-construction: will_visit decorated_statement 0x55a6d1972650
ast-construction: make argument_or_redirection 0x55a6d1968310
ast-construction: will_visit argument_or_redirection 0x55a6d1968310
ast-construction: make argument 0x55a6d197b0b0
ast-construction: argument_or_redirection_list size: 1
ast-construction: job_continuation_list size: 0
ast-construction: job_conjunction_continuation_list size: 0
ast-construction: job_list size: 1
```
Which is still unambiguous because of the indentation.
(this is still *super verbose* and we might want to remove it from the
`*` "all" debug category and only allow turning it on explicitly)
This simply checks if the parser requested exit after running any
binding scripts (in read_normal_chars).
I think this means we no longer need the `exit` bind function.
Fixes#7967.
Just add some extra sleep time so it hopefully also works when the
CI system is overloaded. This succeeded >60 times in the CI, without
a single failure.
In case it legitimately fails again, we should provide simple steps
to reproduce the failure interactively (using "tmux attach").
The uvar issue only triggered because two fish are started - one is
running the tmux-complete script, the other one is running inside tmux.
We could reduce the complexity of this test by writing it in a
different language, like sh or python.
Reproducible at least on Linux, where the "named pipe" universal
variable notifier is used:
rm -rf build/test/xdg_config
XDG_CONFIG_HOME=build/test/xdg_config ./build/fish -c "xterm -e ./build/fish"
The child fish reacts to keyboard input with a noticeable initial
delay. This is because the universal variable file is polled over
a million times, even when I immediately press Control-D. This polling
prevents readb() from handling keyboard input.
Before commit 939aba02d ("Refactor input_common.cpp:readb"), readb()
reacted to keyboard input even when there were universal variable
notifications. Restore this behavior, but make sure to call the
universal variable notifier after the new "prepare_to_select" logic.
Maybe the problem is in the notifier but the old behavior was sane.
Fixes the problems described in
7a556ec6f2 (commitcomment-49773677)
Adding "-d uvars-file" to the reproducesr shows that we are checking
the uvar file repeatedly:
uvar-file: universal log sync
uvar-file: universal log sync elided based on fast stat()
uvar-file: universal log no modifications
From my checks (gnome-terminal with the "gnome light" colorscheme)
this seems to be the only color that's barely visible in a light
terminal, and it's the only color mentioned in both bug reports.
I'm leaving the artistic decisions to others, this is now *acceptable*
in both.
Note that, because we use universal variables here (hint #7317), this
will only be changed for preexisting installations when the user
reloads the colorscheme.
