Prior to this change, fish used a global flag to decide if we should check
for changes to universal variables. This flag was then checked at arbitrary
locations, potentially triggering variable updates and event handlers for
those updates; this was very hard to reason about.
Switch to triggering a universal variable update at a fixed location,
after running an external command. The common case is that the variable
file has not changed, which we can identify with just a stat() call, so
this is pretty cheap.
I did not realize builtins could safely call into the parser and inject
jobs during execution. This is much cleaner than hacking around the
required shape of a plain_statement.
`eval` has always been implemented as a function, which was always a bit
of a hack that caused some issues such as triggering the creation of a
new scope. This turns `eval` into a decorator.
The scoping issues with eval prevented it from being usable to actually
implement other shell components in fish script, such as the problems
described in #4442, which should now no longer be the case.
Closes#4443.
Followup to 394623b.
Doing it in the parser meant only top-level jobs would be reaped after
being `disown`ed, as subjobs aren't directly handled by the parser.
This is also much cleaner, as now job removal is centralized in
`process_clean_after_marking()`.
Closes#5803.
This prevents the `disown` builtin from directly removing jobs out of
the jobs list to prevent sanity issues, as `disown` may be called within
the context of a subjob (e.g. in a function or block) in which case the
parent job might not yet be done with the reference to the child job.
Instead, a flag is set and the parser removes the job from the list only
after the entire execution chain has completed.
Closes#5720.
Directly access the job list without the intermediate job_iterator_t,
and remove functions that are ripe for abuse by modifying a local
enumeration of the same list instead of operating on the iterators
directly (e.g. proc.cpp iterates jobs, and mid-iteration calls
parser::job_remove(j) with the job (and not the iterator to the job),
causing an invisible invalidation of the pre-existing local iterators.
A while loop now evaluates to the last executed command in the body, or
zero if the loop body is empty. This matches POSIX semantics.
Add a bunch of tricky tests.
See #4982
This requires threading environment_t through many places, such as completions
and history. We introduce null_environment_t for when the environment isn't
important.
If it's a foreground job, it is related to the currently running exec.
This fixes exec in functions, i.e.
function reload
exec fish
end
would previously always ask about the "function reload" job.
Fixes#5449.

If the user is in a directory which has been unlinked, it is possible
for the path .. to not exist, relative to the working directory.
Always pass in the working directory (potentially virtual) to
path_get_cdpath; this ensures we check absolute paths and are immune
from issues if the working directory has been unlinked.
Also introduce a new function path_normalize_for_cd which normalizes the
"join point" of a path and a working directory. This allows us to 'cd' out of
a non-existent directory, but not cd into such a directory.
Fixes#5341
The parent of a job is the parent pipeline that executed the function or
block corresponding to this job. This will help simplify
process_mark_finished_children().
This was introduced in 1b1bc28c0a but did
not cause any problems until the job control refactor, which caused it
to attempt to signal the calling `exec` builtin's own (invalid) pgrp
with SIGHUP.
Also improved debugging for `j->signal()` failures by printing the
signal we tried sending in case of error, rename the function to
`hup_background_jobs`, and move it from `reader.h`/`reader.cpp` to
`proc.h`/`proc.cpp`.
* Convert JOB_* enums to scoped enums
* Convert standalone job_is_* functions to member functions
* Convert standalone job_{promote, signal, continue} to member functions
* Convert standolen job_get{,_from_pid} to `job_t` static functions
* Reduce usage of JOB_* enums outside of proc.cpp by using new
`job_t::is_foo()` const helper methods instead.
This patch is only a refactor and should not change any functionality or
behavior (both observed and unobserved).
`exec` now exhibits the same behavior as `exit` and prompts the user to
confirm their intention to end the current process if there are
background jobs running. Running `exec` again immediately thereafter
will force the exec to go through.
Additionally, background jobs are reaped upon exec to prevent process
leaking (same as `exit`).
separated_buffer_t encapsulates the logic around discarding (which
was previously duplicated between output_stream_t and io_buffer_t),
and will also encapsulate the logic around explicitly separated
output.
Variables set in if and while conditions are in the enclosing block, not
the if/while statement block. For example:
if set -l var (somecommand) ; end
echo $var
will now work as expected.
Fixes#4820. Fixes#1212.
This promotes "and" and "or" from a type of statement to "job
decorators," as a possible prefix on a job. The point is to rationalize
how they interact with && and ||.
In the new world 'and' and 'or' apply to a entire job conjunction, i.e.
they have "lower precedence." Example:
if [ $age -ge 0 ] && [ $age -le 18 ]
or [ $age -ge 75 ] && [ $age -le 100 ]
echo "Child or senior"
end
Prior to this fix, each redirection type was a separate token_type.
Unify these under a single type TOK_REDIRECT and break the redirection
type out into a new sub-type redirection_type_t.
The previous attempt to support newlines after pipes changed the lexer to
swallow newlines after encountering a pipe. This has two problems that are
difficult to fix:
1. comments cannot be placed after the pipe
2. fish_indent won't know about the newlines, so it will erase them
Address these problems by removing the lexer behavior, and replacing it
with a new parser symbol "optional_newlines" allowing the newlines to be
reflected directly in the fish grammar.
