This didn't do all the syntax checks, so something like
fish -c 'echo foo; and $status'
complained of a missing command `0` (i.e. $status), and
fish -c 'echo foo | exec grep'
hit an assert!
So we do what read_ni does, parse each command into an ast, run
parse_util_detect_errors on it if it worked and then eval the ast.
It is possible to do this neater by modifying parser::eval, but I
can't find where.
This is slightly unclean. Even tho it would otherwise be syntactically
valid, using $status as a command is very very very likely to be an
error, like
if not $status
We have reports of this surprisingly regularly, including #2773.
Because $status can only ever be a value from 0 to 255, it is also
very unlikely to be an actual command, and that command is very
unlikely to do what you want.
So we simply point the user towards the "conditions" help section,
that should explain things.
This means, if we repaint with a shorter prompt, we won't overwrite the longer parts.
This reintroduces #8002, but that's a much rarer usecase - having a prompt that fills the entire screen,
in certain terminals.
This reverts commit d3ceba107e.
Fixes#8163.
This is opt-in through a new feature flag "ampersand-nobg-in-token".
When this flag and "qmark-noglob" are enabled, this command no longer
needs quoting:
curl https://example.com/thing?foo=bar&duran=duran
Compared to the previous approach e1570a4 ("Let '&' only separate as
the first char of a word"), this has some advantages:
1. "&&" and "&>" are no longer affected. They are still special, even
if used between tokens without spaces, like "echo bar&>foo".
Maybe this is not really *better*, but it avoids risking to annoy
users by breaking the old variant.
2. "&" is still special if at the end of a token, like in "sleep 1&".
Word movement is not affected by the semantics change, so Alt-F and
friends still stop at every "&".
Currently, if a "return" is given outside of a function, we'd just
throw an error.
That always struck me as a bit weird, given that scripts can also
return a value.
So simply let "return" outside also exit the script, kinda like "exit"
does.
However, unlike "exit" it doesn't quit an interactive shell - it seems
weird to have "return" do that as well. It sets $status, so it can be
used to quickly set that, in case you want to test something.
Today the reader exposes its internals directly, e.g. to the commandline
builtin. This is of course not thread safe. For example in concurrent
execution, running `commandline` twice in separate threads would cause a
race and likely a crash.
Fix this by factoring all the commandline state into a new type
'commandline_state_t'. Make it a singleton (there is only one command
line
after all) and protect it with a lock.
No user visible change here.
No functional change here; this migrates the fix ensuring that history
items are available in the builtin interactive read command into the
reader itself, in preparation for removing reader_get_history().
This adds a hack to the parser. Given a command
echo "x$()y z"
we virtually insert double quotes before and after the command
substitution, so the command internally looks like
echo "x"$()"y z"
This hack allows to reuse the existing logic for handling (recursive)
command substitutions.
This makes the quoting syntax more complex; external highlighters
should consider adding this if possible.
The upside (more Bash compatibility) seems worth it.
Closes#159
When the user presses control-C, fish marks a cancellation signal which
prevents fish script from running, allowing it to properly unwind.
Prior to this commit, the signal was cleared in the reader. However this
missed the case where a binding would set $fish_bind_mode which would
trigger event handlers: the event handlers would be skipped because of
the cancellation flag was still set. This is similar to #6937.
Let's clear the flag earlier, as soon as we it's set, in inputter_t.
Fixes#8125.
* string: Allow `collect --no-empty` to avoid empty ellision
Currently we still have that issue where
test -n (thing | string collect)
can return true if `thing` doesn't print anything, because the
collected argument will still be removed.
So, what we do is allow `--no-empty` to be used, in which case we
print one empty argument.
This means
test -n (thing | string collect -n)
can now be safely used.
"no-empty" isn't the best name for this flag, but string's design
really incentivizes reusing names, and it's not *terrible*.
* Switch to `--allow-empty`
`--no-empty` does the exact opposite for `string split` and split0.
Since `-a`/`--allow-empty` already exists, use it.
This reverts commit b56b230076.
which somehow made us miss repaints on uvar notifications.
The commit was a workaround for a polling bug which was later properly
fixed by 7c5b8b855 ("Use the uvar notifier pipe timestamp to avoid
excessive polling"), so it's no longer necessary.
Add a system test. If I had a better understanding of the bug I could
probably write a better test.
Fixes#8088
We used to warn about PATH and CDPATH that are not valid directories,
but only if they contain colons.
However, the warning was a false positive because we would split
those values by colons anyway. So there is nothing left we want to
warn about.
Fixes#8095
FISH_USE_POSIX_SPAWN is always defined, thanks to the line
#define FISH_USE_POSIX_SPAWN HAVE_SPAWN_H
So replace #ifdef with #if to fix compilation on platforms lacking
spawn.h. Also make the spawn.h inclusion condition consistent across
files.
The sort routine was using the address of the **function pointer**
`signal(int signal)` rather than the union payload of the same name.
Perhaps one of the two should be renamed.
Prior to this change, if you were to type `./fish_indent` it woul dbe
colored as valid, because the path
`$fish_functions_path/./fish_indent.fish` is a real file. However of
course this is not actually executed as a function. Teach
function_exists to return false for function names which are invalid.
This only accepted "--background=". Really what we need to do is do an
actual getopt, but that wants a null-terminated array and is tightly
coupled to set_color.
Fixes#8053.
* Try to set LC_CTYPE to something UTF-8 capable
When fish is started with LC_CTYPE=C (even just effectively, often via
LC_ALL=C!), it's basically broken. There's no way to handle non-ASCII
characters with a C locale unless we want to write our
locale-independent replacements for all of the system functions.
Since we're not going to do that, let's try to find *some locale* for
LC_CTYPE.
We already do that in __fish_setlocale, but that's
- a bit of a weird thing that reads unstandardized system
configuration files
- allows setting locale to C explicitly
So it's still easily possible to end up in a broken configuration.
Now, the issue with this is that there is (AFAICT) no portable way to
get a list of all allowed locales and C.UTF-8 is not standardized, so
we have no one locale to fall back on and are forced to try a few. The
list we have here is quite arbitrary, but it's a start.
Python does something similar and only tries C.UTF-8, C.utf8 and
"UTF-8".
Once C.UTF-8 is (hopefully) standardized, that will just start
working (tm).
Note that we do not *export* the fixed LC_CTYPE variable, so external
programs still have to deal with the C locale, but we have no real
business messing with the user's environment.
To turn it off: $fish_allow_singlebyte_locale, if set to something true (like "1"),
will re-run the locale initialization and skip the bit where we force
LC_CTYPE to be utf8-capable.
This is mainly used in our tests, but might also be useful if people
are trying to do something weird.
This concerns the behavior of posix_spawn for shebangless scripts. At some
point, glibc started executing them using `sh`, which is desirable for
fish's shebangless support (see #7802). On glibcs without that behavior
the shebangless test fails. So this change disables posix_spawn on older
glibcs.
It's not easy to figure out when that happened but it definitely happens
in glibc 2.28, and does not happen in glibc 2.17. Presumably the new
behavior is present in glibc 2.24 (see BZ#23264) so that's the cutoff:
posix_spawn is no longer allowed on glibc < 2.24.
This fixes the noshebang test failures on Ubuntu Xenial and Centos 7.
See discussion at bottom of #8021.
Now that `$last_pid` is never fish's pid, we no longer need to force
jobs to run in their own pgroup. Restore the job control behavior to
what it was prior, so that signals may be delivered properly in
non-interactive mode.
This reverts commit 3255999794
Prior to this change, a function with an on-job-exit event handler must be
added with the pgid of the job. But sometimes the pgid of the job is fish
itself (if job control is disabled) and the previous commit made last_pid
an actual pid from the job, instead of its pgroup.
Switch on-job-exit to accept any pid from the job (except fish itself).
This allows it to be used directly with $last_pid, except that it now
works if job control is off. This is implemented by "resolving" the pid to
the internal job id at the point the event handler is added.
Also switch to passing the last pid of the job, rather than its pgroup.
This aligns better with $last_pid.
When a job is placed in the background, fish will set the `$last_pid`
variable. Prior to this change, `$last_pid` was set to the process group
leader of the job. However this caussed problems when the job ran in
fish's process group, because then fish itself would be the process group
leader and commands like `wait` would not work.
Switch `$last_pid` to be the actual last pid of the pipeline. This brings
it in line with the `$!` variable from zsh and bash.
This is technically a breaking change, but it is unlikely to cause
problems, because `$last_pid` was already rather broken.
Fixes#5036Fixes#5832Fixes#7721
These asserts require a recursive template instantiation and are currently
checked for every file that pulls in common.h. Place them in a .cpp file so
they are only checked once, hopefully improving compile time.
It is possible to run a function when a process exits via `function
--on-process-exit`, or when a job exits via `function --on-job-exits`.
Internally these were distinguished by the pid in the event: if it was
positive, then it was a process exit. If negative, it represents a pgid
and is a job exit. If zero, it fires for both jobs and processes, which is
pretty weird.
Switch to tracking these explicitly. Separate out the --on-process-exit
and --on-job-exit event types into separate types. Stop negating pgids as
well.
This passed the wchar_t* to outputter::writestr(), which then had to
do a wcslen on it, when it already has a perfectly cromulent
wcstring overload.
Just use that one.
This makes the right prompt position independent of the width of the
commandline, which prevents staircase effects. That means, with "X"
standing in as a character that the terminal and fish disagree on:
```
> echo X rightprompt
```
will stay like that instead of creating a staircase like
```
> echo X rightpromp
t> echo X rightpromp
pt> echo X
```
and so on.
The cursor still won't be *correct*, but it will be wrong in a less
annoying way.
If the user has a multi-line prompt, we will emit a clr_eol on every
line except the last (see #7404). Prior to this change we would emit
clr_eol after the line, but in some terminals, if the line extended the
width of the tty, the last character would be deleted. Switch to
emitting clr_eol first; now the last character will not be cut off.
Fixes#8002
In preparation for using wait handles in --on-process-exit events, factor
wait handles into their own wait handle store. Also switch them to
per-process instead of per-job, which is a simplification.
This crashed on Fedora with the rpm packages, but not when building
from source, so some compiler option triggers it.
But the root cause is us running `text.front()` on an empty string,
which isn't something you should do.
Fixes#8009.
This switches builtin_wait from waiting on jobs in the active job list, to
waiting on the wait handles. The wait handles may be either derived from
the job list itself, or from saved wait handles from jobs that exited in
the background.
Fixes#7210
This is preparing to address the problem where fish cannot wait on a
reaped job, because it only looks at the active job list. Introduce the
idea of a "wait handle," which is a thing that `wait` can use to check if
a job is finished. A job may produce its wait handle on demand, and
parser_t will save the wait handle from wait-able jobs at the point they
are reaped.
This change merely introduces the idea; the next change makes builtin_wait
start using it.
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
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 removes the "did_visit" message because it doesn't really add
anything.
For example:
```
ast-construction: make job_list 0x55a6d19729f0

ast-construction: will_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_conjunction 0x55a6d1971c00

```
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.
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
This only uses the functions fish ships with, but still doesn't allow
any *customization*, which is the point of no-config.
This makes it a lot more usable, given that the actual normal prompt
and things are there.
This still doesn't set any colors, because we don't run
__fish_config_interactive because we don't read config.fish (any
config.fish), because that would run the snippets.
In many cases we currently discard escaped newlines, since they
are often unnecessary (when used around &|;). Escaped newlines
are useful for structuring argument lists. Allow them for variable
assignments since they are similar.
Closes#7955
This would print the default "Argument is invalid" error string, which
is *true* but not super obvious, because `test` doesn't always perform
numeric conversion, and that's the bit that failed here.
This refactors the behavior of string match with capture groups to
correctly handle multiple arguments. Now the variable capture applies to
the first match, as documented. Fixes#7938.
string match is documented as setting an unset variable if a capture group
is unmatched in an otherwise matched regex, and if the `--all` flag is not
provided. However prior to this fix, it instead set a variable containing
the empty string as a single value. Correct the implementation to match
the documentation.
Note that if the `--all` flag is provided we continue to set empty
strings, which is documented.
This came out of an investigation into making strings immutable.
This code did "lazy" lowercasing but we can simplify it by just
providing our own case-insensitive compare routine, which is good
enough for colors.
job_reap is now called more often. This optimizes it by doing an
early-out if there are no running jobs (common at the prompt) and also
skipping the save/restore status, since by inspection we also save and
restore the status when running event handlers.
This concerns printing status messages for background jobs which have
stopped or finished. Previously fish would do this from two places:
1. Before running a command (including empty string)
2. If a signal is received during select()
So if the job finishes while fish is doing something else (like running an
event handler) then we would not print status messages until the user hit
return. This caused the job_summary.py test to be flaky.
Fix this by splitting the interrupt handler into two parts: a part that
handles signals (e.g. triggering exit from the reader), and a part that
always runs just before blocking in select(). This second part always
reaps jobs and prints their status messages. This narrows the window for a
job exit to be "missed" before fish blocks in select, and should make the
job_summary.py test more reliable.
This concerns the problem of "injecting" fancy fish bits like job reaping
into the "common" input stuff which is also used by fish_key_reader.
Instead of providing a callback, make the input event queue a base class
with virtual functions. This allows for a richer interface and simplifies
some memory management issues.
readb is used to read a single byte from stdin, or maybe update universal
variables, or maybe invoke completion handlers, etc. Previously it
returned char_event_t but this is more complex than necessary; instead we
can just have it return a single byte, or one of a few special error
codes. This makes the readb's role more clear.
"The" interrupt handler is used when we get a signal while waiting at the
prompt. Switch it from a global function pointer to an std::function. This
is a mild refactoring which itself will be replaced soon.
Now that timeouts are stored in the event queue peeker, we can remove the
notion of timeout events altogether. Instead you may ask for an event with
a timeout, and get back none on timeout. This simplifies how input events
work.
Previously, when attempting to match a key binding, we would dequeue
events from the queue and put them back on if the binding fails. The
tricky part is timeouts: distinguishing between an escaped character and
the escape key itself. This was handled with "timeout events" and we had
to be careful to know when to discard them.
Switch to a new model: use event_queue_peeker more pervasively.
Temporarily dequeued events are stored in the peeker, and the peeker
itself remembers when it has seen a timeout. This is in preparation for
removing the idea of "timeout events" altogether.
Make it an ordinary struct wrapping a vector, instead of a template.
This is in preparation for using it more widely, for matching bindings
as well as mouse CSI sequences.
Also add some mouse-disabling tests.
select_wrapper_t wraps up the annoying bits of using select(): keeping
track of the max fd, passing null for boring parameters, and
constructing the timeout. Introduce a wrapper struct for this and
replace the existing uses of select() with the wrapper.
In readch_timed, we were passing 1 as the number of fds. This is correct if
the fd is 0 (stdin) which it typically is; however this will fail if in_ is
not stdin. Switch to in_ + 1.
This could have been one iteration off, e.g.
```fish
function on-winch --on-signal winch
echo $LINES
end
```
Resize the terminal, it'll print e.g.
24
then run `echo $LINES` interactively, it might have a different answer.
This isn't beautiful, but it works. A better solution might be to make
the termsize vars electric and just always update them on read?
With something like
```
history | head -n 1
```
this would error "write: Broken pipe", which is just annoying. There
is no *problem* here, `head` closes this on purpose.
Fixes#7924.
Things like
```fish
complete command -n '__fish_seen_subcommand_from subcommand'
--force-files
```
would not be obeyed because we only checked force-files when there was
an option.
Fixes#7920.
When a terminal in a tiling WM starts, it might start the shell before
it has reached its "final" size. So we get the terminal width,
then the terminal would be resized (to appease the tiling logic),
and then we would print the abandon line with the omitted newline
char, only if the size got smaller (likely!), we would overflow the
line and land on the next.
So what we do is a bit of a hack: We don't abandon the first line.
This means that `printf %s foo; fish` will overwrite the `foo`, but
that's a super small problem and I don't see another way around this.
Fixes#7893.
This isn't helpful, and entirely unreadable. Excerpt:
```
__fish_git_prompt_set_char (set -l user_variable_name "$argv[1]" set -l char $argv[2] if set -q argv[3] and begin set -q __fish_git_prompt_show_informative_status or set -q __fi…)
```
Fixes#7911.
When fish starts, it notices which pgroup owns the tty, and then it
restores that pgroup's tty ownership when it exits. However if fish does
not own the tty, then (on Mac at least) the tcsetpgrp call triggers a
SIGSTOP and fish will hang while trying to exit.
The first change is to ignore SIGTTOU instead of defaulting it. This
prevents the hang; however it risks re-introducing #7060.
The second change somewhat mitigates the risk of the first: only do the
restore if the initial pgroup is different than fish's pgroup. This
prevents some useless calls which might potentially steal the tty from
another process (e.g. in #7060).
If fish launches a program and that program marks stdin as O_ASYNC, then
fish will start receiving SIGIO events on Mac. This occurs even though
the file descriptor itself does not have the O_ASYNC flag set.
SIGIO is reported as interrupting select which then breaks multiple-key
bindings, especially in vi-mode.
As the SIGIO based universal notifier is disabled, remove it and the
SIGIO handler itself. This allows fish to ignore properly ignore SIGIO.
Fixes#7853
This correctly sets $status when a builtin succeeds but its output fails;
for example if the output is redirected to a file and that write fails.

The oldschool math.h imports the math functions into the global
namespace, cmath imports them into std::.
Unfortunately, we already use cmath elsewhere, and including math.h
doesn't reimport them in some systems, so now they can't find them
with std::.
Fixes#7882.
* math: Make function parentheses optional
It's a bit annoying to use parentheses here because that requires
quoting or escaping.
This allows the parens to be omitted, so
math sin pi
is the same as
math 'sin(pi)'
Function calls have the lowest precedence, so
math sin 2 + 6
is the same as
math 'sin(2 + 6)'

The bell is a mechanism for important notifications. Not having things
to do in response to a keypress isn't important enough, especially
because we're already flashing and the bell might actually be a bell.
Fixes#7875.
It's not super clear what $SHLVL is useful for, but the current
definition is essentially
"number of shells in the parent processes + 1"
which isn't *super useful*?
Bash's behavior here is a bit weird in that it increments $SHLVL
basically always, but since it auto-execs the last process it will
decrement it again, so in practice it's often not incremented.
E.g.
```
> echo $SHLVL
1
> bash -c 'echo $SHLVL; bash'
2
>> echo $SHLVL
2
```
Both bashes here end up having the same $SHLVL because this is
equivalent to `echo $SHLVL; exec bash`. Running `echo $SHLVL` and then
`bash -c 'echo $SHLVL'` in an interactive bash will have a different
result (1 and 2) because that doesn't *exec* the inner bash.
That's not something we want to get into, so what we do is increment
$SHLVL in every interactive fish. Non-interactive fish will simply
import the existing value.
That means if you had e.g. a bash that runs a fish script that ends up
opening a new fish session, you would have a $SHLVL of *2* - one for the
bash, and one for the inner fish.
We key this off is_interactive_session() (which can also be enabled
via `fish -i`) because it's easy and because `fish -i` is asking for
fish to be, in some form, "interactive".
That means most of the time $SHLVL will be "how many shells am I deep,
how often do I have to `exit`", except for when you specifically asked
for a fish to be "interactive". If that's a problem, we can rethink it.
Fixes#7864.
In preparation for concurrent execution, introduce a
`get_performer_for_builtin` function. This function itself returns a
function, which when called will run the builtin. The idea is that the
function may be called on a background thread (but not in this commit).
Several functions including wgetopt and execve operate on null-terminated
arrays of nul-terminated pointers: a list of pointers to C strings where
the last pointer is null. Prior to this change, each process_t stored its
argv in such an array. This had two problems:
1. It was awkward to work with this type, instead of using std::vector,
etc.
2. The process's arguments would be rearranged by builtins which is
surprising
Our null terminated arrays were built around a fancy type that would copy
input strings and also generate an array of pointers to them, in one big
allocation.
Switch to a new model where we construct an array of pointers over
existing strings. So you can supply a `vector<string>` and now
`null_terminated_array_t` will just make a list of pointers to them. Now
processes can just store their argv in a familiar wcstring_list_t.
Prior to this change, builtins would take their arguments as `wchar_t **`.
This implies that the order of the arguments may be changed (which is
true, `wgetopter` does so) but also that the strings themselves may be
changed, which no builtin should do.
Switch them all to take `const wchar_t **` instead: now the arguments may
be rearranged but their contents may no longer be modified.
This cleans up builtin_set a bit, with the meat of the change being
reworking `parse_index` into `split_var_and_indexes`.
`parse_index` was a function that split a string like `foo[1 3..5]` into
its variable name `foo` and the indexes (here `1 3 4 5`). It had a funny
interface where it would modify a C string in-place. Switch it to return a
`split_var_t` which is a little struct wrapping up the split operation.
This simplifies memory management, and also avoids modifying the arguments
to the builtin.
Previously iothread_perform could do something on a background thread, and
then do something on the main thread. But we no longer use that second
part: instead everything goes through debounce. Remove the completion
parameter from iothread_perform.
This fixes the following problem: if a command is entered while the
previous command is still executing, fish will see it all at once and
execute it before syntax highlighting as a chance to start. So the
command will appear wrong on the terminal. Fix this by detecting this
case and performing a fast no-io highlight.
An example of how to reproduce this:
run `sleep 3` and then type `echo foo` while the sleep is still running.
- Check for special characters *before* attempting to parse
- Also ignore lines with `{` and `*`
- Also skip lines with `<<` because that might be a heredoc (or a
- `<<<` herestring)
Fixes#7874.
This cleans up some exit code processing. Previously a failed exec
would produce exit code 125 unconditionally, while a failed posix_spawn
would produce exit code 1 (!).
With this change, fish reports exit code 126 for not-executable, and 127
for file-not-found. This matches bash.
This change modifies the fish safety check surrounding execve / spawn so
it can run shell scripts having concatenated binary content. We're using
the same safety check as FreeBSD /bin/sh [1] and the Z-shell [5]. POSIX
was recently revised to require this behavior:
"The input file may be of any type, but the initial portion of the
file intended to be parsed according to the shell grammar (XREF to
XSH 2.10.2 Shell Grammar Rules) shall consist of characters and
shall not contain the NUL character. The shell shall not enforce
any line length limits."
"Earlier versions of this standard required that input files to the
shell be text files except that line lengths were unlimited.
However, that was overly restrictive in relation to the fact that
shells can parse a script without a trailing newline, and in
relation to a common practice of concatenating a shell script
ending with an 'exit' or 'exec $command' with a binary data payload
to form a single-file self-extracting archive." [2] [3]
One example use case of such scripts, is the Cosmopolitan C Library [4]
which configuse the GNU Linker to output a polyglot shell+binary format
that runs on Linux / Mac / Windows / FreeBSD / OpenBSD / NetBSD / BIOS.

cd: Just try to cd without checking first
Some filesystems are broken and error out on `stat(3)` of existing and
cd-able directories.
So we just try to `fchdir` and report errors later.
Fixes#7577.
We have no idea why this was even a thing. For now simply set it to
"all"/"full" (why these two names? no idea) at startup and allow
changing it later.
Settting it *immediately* when defining the variable sets it too soon
because we don't have the interactive signal handlers
enabled (including the one for SIGTTOU), so let's first settle for
this little piece of awkwardness.
This needs widespread testing, so we merge it early, immediately after
the release.
Fixes#5036Fixes#5832Fixes#7721
(and probably numerous others)
We const cast these, so they aren't actually const,
and const doesn't actually help with optimization or anything (because const_cast exists),
so I would rather remove this, because const_cast gives me both the heebies and the jeebies.
When fish performs syntax highlighting, it attempts to determine which
arguments are valid paths and underline them. Skip paths whose length
exceeds PATH_MAX. This is an optimization: such strings are almost
certainly not valid paths and checking them may be expensive.
Relevant is #7837
Previously wbasename and wdirname wrapped the system-provided basename
and dirname. But these have thread-safety issues and some surprising
error conditions on Mac. Just reimplement these per the OpenGroup spec.
In particular these no longer trigger a null-dereference if the input
exceeds PATH_MAX.
Add some tests too.
This fixes#7837
Previously fish attempted to block all signals on background threads, so
that they would be delivered to the main thread. But on Mac, SIGSEGV
and probably some others just get silently dropped, leading to potential
infinite loops instead of crashing. So stop blocking these signals.
With this change the null-deref in #7837 will properly crash instead of
spinning.
`streams.out.push_back` for fd_streams_t writes to the
fd *immediately*. We might want to introduce a general buffering
strategy, but in this case writing it in one go is the simplest and
seems acceptable - we already have constrained the argument size, so
just pushing it out should work well enough.
See #7836
013a563ed0 made it so we only try to
adjust terminal modes if we are in the terminal pgroup, but that's not
enough.
Fish starts background jobs in events inside its own pgroup, so
function on-foo --on-event foo
fish -c 'sleep 3' &
end
would have the backgrounded fish try to fiddle with the terminal and
succeed.
Instead, only fiddle with the terminal if we're interactive (this
should probably be extended to other bits, but this is the particular
problematic part)
Fixes#7842.
Consider
$ complete -c foo -a 'aab aaB' -f
$ foo A<TAB>
since 28d67c8 we would insert the common prefix AND show the pager.
Due to case-insensitive comparison, "b/B" was considered to be part
of the prefix. Since the prefix is added to each pager item [1]
we get wrong results. Fix this by removing the insensitive comparison
between completions - I don't think it was of much use anyway.
Commandline tokens are still matched case-insensitively, this is
just about completions.
Test this by running interactive fish inside tmux (pexpect's terminal
emulation not have enough capabilities). Also add tests for recent
interactive regressions #7526 and #7738.
Closes#3978
[1]: b38a23a would solve this differently by giving every pager item
its own prefix, but was reverted since it needs more fixes.
This should cover most cases - the user didn't install the docs and is
trying to view the man page via __fish_print_help, so we don't have a
way to show anything.
But `help thing` will fall back to the online version of the docs,
which should work if there's an internet connection.
See #7824.
Prior to this commit "builtin -h" would silently fail when no
documentation is installed. This happens when running fish without
installing it, or when the docs are not installed.
See #7824
Creating a file called "xfoo" could break the highlight tests because
we'd suddenly get a color with valid_path set to true.
So what we do is simply compare foreground/background and forced
underline, but only check for path validity if we're expecting a valid
path.
If we're not expecting a valid path, we don't fail whether it is there
or not.
This means that we can't check for a non-valid path, but we don't
currently do that anyway and we can just burn that bridge when we get
to it.

This concerns the behavior when running an external command from a key
binding. The history is:
Prior to 5f16a299a7, fish would run these external commands in shell
modes. This meant that fish would pick up any tty changes from external
commands (see #2114).
After 5f16a299a7, fish would save and restore its shell modes around
these external commands. This introduced a regression where anything the
user typed while a bound external command was executing would be echoed,
because external command mode has ECHO set in c_lflag. (This can be
reproed easily with `bind -q 'sleep 1'` and then pressing q and typing).
So 5f16a299a7 was reverted in fd9355966.
This commit partially reverts fd9355966. It has it both ways: external
commands are launched with shell modes, but/and shell modes are restored
after the external command completes. This allows commands to muck with
the tty, as long as they can handle getting shell modes; but it does not
enable ECHO mode so it fixes the regression found in #7770.
Fixes#7770. Fixes#2114 (for the third time!)
This partially reverts commit fd9355966e.
Unfortunately this causes input coming in while bind functions are
running to show up on screen.
Since the cure is worse than the disease let's just stop doing it.
My guess is this needs to *only* be done while running an external
command.
Fixes#7770
Reintroduces #2114
Partially reverts 5f16a299a7
For reasons unclear to me, fish enables bold mode unconditionally if
the background is set.
However, this called a background "set" if it wasn't exactly the
"normal" color, whereas set_color --print-colors would set a color
of *none*.
We have three special non-color colors:
- "normal"
- "reset"
- "none"
All of these specify some form of absence of background color, so all
of them should be checked.
Fixes#7805
* Rewrite the real file if history file is a symlink
When the history file is a symbolic link, `fish` used to overwrite
the link with a real file whenever it saved history. This makes
it follow the symlink and overwrite the real file instead.
The same issue was fixed for the `fish_variables` file in 622f2868e
from https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/pull/7728.
This makes `fish_history` behave in the same way. The implementation
is nearly identical.
Since the tests for the two issues are so similar, I combined them
together and slightly expanded the older test.
This also addresses https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/7553.
* Add user-facing error when history renaming fails
Currently, when history file renaming fails, no message is shown to the
user. This happens, for instance, if the history file is a symlink
pointing to another filesystem.
This copies code (with a bit of variation, after reviewer comments) from
589eb34571/src/env_universal_common.cpp (L486-L491)
into `history.cpp`, so that a message is shown to the user.
* fixup! Rewrite the real file if history file is a symlink
Before now, we would be getting the terminal modes before config.fish,
then running config.fish without any of the term "stealing" and modes
copying. This meant that changes made to the terminal modes in there
were simply lost.
So, what we do is simply set the modes before config and then copy
them after, once.
Note that this does *not* turn off flow control again - if you turn it
on in config.fish that should work.
Fixes#7783.
f7e2e7d26b forbid any job exit events
from happening inside jobs that were themselves event handlers, but
that causes e.g.
```fish
function f --on-event fish_prompt
source (echo "echo hello world" | psub)
end
```
to not trigger psub's cleanup, so it leaves files in $TMPDIR behind.
This was hit by pyenv, because that still uses `source (thing |
psub)`.
Fixes#7792.
This seems like a good idea, but there isn't anything we or anyone
else can *do* in this case. All we ever do is pile on additional
errors on the ignore pile, we can't handle any of them differently.
The command isn't a thing, so we check the next path.
The impetus for this is Cygwin apparently returning a wonderfully
useless 0, and it's not even the first one to do so.
Fixes#7785
While pid values may be reused, it is logical to assume that fish event
handlers coded against a particular job or process id mean just the job
that is currently referred to be any given pid/pgrp rather than in
perpetuity.
This trims the list of registered event handlers nice and early, and as
a bonus avoids the issue described in #7721.
The cleanup song-and-dance is extremely ugly due to the repeated locking
and unlocking of the event handler list.
Closes#7221.
It doesn't work on WSL, Solaris and Archlinux (and presumably that
means future versions of other linux distros).
In its current state I don't trust it enough to enable it anywhere by
default, especially since I'm not aware of an actual issue with the
named pipe (other than that the code is ugly).
Fixes#7774
dynamic_cast requires rtti to be enabled. Now, this isn't a big
problem, but since this is our only dynamic_cast in the entire
codebase, and it's not serving an important function, we can just
replace it.
See #7764
This half-reverts commit a3cb1e2dcd,
avoiding the bit that passed arguments differently.
Note that this means the initial bug is kept in the hardcoded fallback title.
Fixes#7749.
My bet is that the Illumos, Cygwin, and WSL are not the only Unix-like
systems where the SIGIO notifier won't work, and since we have a good
enough and portable alternative that we can use be default on other
platforms where we don't specifically know it'll work, it doesn't make
sense not to go with that one instead.
Even if this patch is reverted at some point and we go back to
blacklisting platforms that *don't* support the SIGIO strategy, this is
almost certainly the right choice for inclusion in a minor release like
3.2.0.
See discussion in #6585.
* memset/memzero needs cstring/string.h (again)
* winsize_t requires an impl from <sys/termios.h>
With this patch, I was able to get fish master to build on Solaris 11.4
without any additional dependencies (after installing gcc 7, git, and
cmake). I think the ncurses dependency can be dropped from the
OpenIndiana package?
Since smartcase, we could land in a situation where we offer one
option in the pager, which is awkward.
So detect this and just insert the option directly, we can add any
more smartness later.
Fixes#7738.
Without true handling of UTF-16 surrogate pairs, all we can do is
properly detect the BMP range in UTF-16 environments and bail if the
input is in a non-BMP region.
There isn't much else we can do as it is incorrect to encode the
surrogate pairs themselves (fish doesn't know what to do with them and
they're illegal under either of UTF-8 or UTF-32).
(I'm not aware of fish being used in any UTF-16 platforms other than
Cygwin.)
Previously, the interop glue for more friendly access to PCRE2's
fixed-size values was only used when char32_t/wchar_t were
interchangeable and PCRE2 was used with a global 32-bit unit width set;
this patch extends the same to char16_t when wchar_t is also 16-bits
(namely on Cygwin) to avoid compilation fpermissive warnings about casts
between types of potentially different sizes.
Reported in #6585.
Those platforms should not be using the sigio notifier in the first
place, this just stops them from failing to be able to compile fish
altogether.
See #6585
The user may write for example:
echo foo >&5
and fish would try to output to file descriptor 5, within the fish process
itself. This has unpredictable effects and isn't useful. Make this an
error.
Note that the reverse is "allowed" but ignored:
echo foo 5>&1
this conceptually dup2s stdout to fd 5, but since no builtin writes to fd
5 we ignore it.
The screen output code predates the ENCODE_DIRECT scheme, and
directly-encoded bytes were not being properly output. This manifested as
private-user characters being mangled when printed as part of fish_prompt.
Just use str2wcstring instead.
Fixes#7723
wcs2string_appending is like wcs2string, but appends to a std::string
instead of creating a new one. This will be more efficient when a string
can be reused, or if we want to accumulate multiple wcstrings into a
single std::string.
They are of variable length, taking semicolon-separated ASCII characters
and not single chars/bytes as the parameters. Additionally, the global
maximum size for a CSI is 16 characters (NPAR), even though I believe
the maximum possible mouse-tracking CSI is 12 characters.
