Prior to this commit, when executing a builtin, we mark the job as not
foreground. After this commit we no longer modify the foreground state
of the job just for the builtin.
There was the following comment:
// Since this may be the foreground job, and since a builtin may execute another
// foreground job, we need to pretend to suspend this job while running the
// builtin, in order to avoid a situation where two jobs are running at once.
The concern seemed to be in the `bg` and `fg` builtins, which might attempt
to foreground or background the jobs associated with `bg` and `fg` themselves.
But the builtins run before the job is marked constructed, so it cannot
actually happen.
Bravely remove this code.
Mostly line breaks, one instance of tabs!
For some reason clang-format insists on two spaces before a same-line comment?
(I continue to be unimpressed with super-strict line length limits,
but I continue to believe in automatic styling, so it is what it is)

It used to error out when a command wasn't known, even when it was a
function that would only be discovered via autoloading.
Now we just accept that a command doesn't exist when no-execute is
given - we're not gonna execute it anyway.
Also, in the same breath stop counting empty commands after expansion
and empty wildcard expansions as errors - these depend on runtime
values, so we can't verify them without executing.
Fixes#977.
(note that it still executes "time", but that's another commit)
Appending to an fd doesn't really make sense, but we allowed the
syntax previously and it was actually used.
It's not too harmful to allow it, so let's just do that again.
For the record: Zsh also allows it, bash doesn't.
Fixes#6614
When building fish-shell with the macOS 10.12 SDK, <sys/proc.h> does not
include <sys/time.h> but references `struct itimerval`. This causes a
compilation failure if we don't import <sys/time.h> ourselves.
This was previously masked by an import of <sys/sysctl.h>, which was
removed in fc0c39b6fd.
Glob ordering is used in a variety of places, including figuring out
conf.d and really needs to be stable.
Other ordering, like completions, is really just cosmetic and can
change if it makes for a nicer experience.
So we uncouple it by copying the wcsfilecmp from 3.0.2, which will
return the ordering to what it was in that release.
Fixes#6593
The `function --on-job-exit caller` feature allows a command substitution
to observe when the parent job exits. This has never worked very well - in
particular it is based on job IDs, so a function that observes this will
run multiple times. Implement it properly.
Do this by having a not-recycled "internal job id".
This is only used by psub, but ensure it works properly none-the-less.
"job_exit" events, despite their name, can only be created via
the '--on-job-exit caller' misfeature of function. Rename it to make it
clear that this event type is specifically for caller-exit.
Add the input function undo which is bound to `\c_` (control + / on
some terminals). Redoing the most recent chain of undos is supported,
redo is bound to `\e/` for now.
Closes#1367.
This approach should not have the issues discussed in #5897.
Every single modification to the commandline can be undone individually,
except for adjacent single-character inserts, which are coalesced,
so they can be reverted with a single undo. Coalescing is not done for
space characters, so each word can be undone separately.
When moving between history search entries, only the current history
search entry is reachable via the undo history. This allows to go back
to the original search string with a single undo, or by pressing the
escape key.
Similarly, when moving between pager entries, only the most recent
selection in the pager can be undone.
This switches bufferfills from using an exclusively-owned thread, to
sharing an fd_monitor. This allows multiple bufferfills to all use the same
thread.
fd_monitor is a new class which can monitor a set of fds, waiting for them
to become readable. When an fd becomes readable, a callback is invoked.
Timeouts are also supported.
This is intended to replace the "bufferfill" threads. Rather than one
thread per bufferfill, we will have a single fd_monitor which can service
multiple bufferfills. This helps today with nested command substitutions,
and will help in the future with concurrent execution.
This makes two changes:
1. Remove the 'brace_text_start' idea. The idea of 'brace_text_start' was
to prevent emitting `BRACE_SPACE` at the beginning or end of an item. But
we later strip these off anyways, so there is no apparent benefit. If we
are not doing brace expansion, this prevented emitting whitespace at the
beginning or end of an item, leading to #6564.
2. When performing brace expansion, only stomp the space character with
`BRACE_SPACE`; do not stomp newlines and tabs. This is because the fix in
came from a newline or tab literal, then we would have effectively
replaced a newline or tab with a space, so this is important for #6564 as
well. Moreover, it is not easy to place a literal newline or tab inside a
brace expansion, and users who do probably do not mean for it to be
stripped, so I believe this is a good change in general.
Fixes#6564
fish has some unprincipled code that attempts to tcsetpgrp() to own the
terminal before running a builtin; this was added because 'read' might
want to read from the terminal. I added this code before fully
understanding how process groups and terminals work. A better fix would
be to ensure that fish is marked as the pgroup leader in the job when
the builtin is the first process in the job, and we do that now.
Courageously back out the changes to grab the terminal; see #5147 and
also #5133.
Introduce pgroup_provenance_t, a type which captures "where the pgroup
comes from." This centralizes some logic around how pgroups are
assigned, and it anticipates concurrent execution.
In some cases on some platforms this could clobber errno, so doing something like
aThingThatFailsWithErrno();
FLOG(category, "Some message");
wperror("something");
would print the wrong error (presumably if that category was enabled).
In our case it was our (very) old friend RHEL6 returning ESPIPE instead of EISDIR.
Fixes#6545.
Prior to this fix, the cancellation C++ test would mark the parser as
interactive in an effort to install interactive signal handling (so that,
for example, SIGINT would stop the job and return control to the user).
However this flag would also cause fish to attempt to save and restore tty modes
across the job. This would fail since there is no tty, and so the job would fail
with an unexpected error code.
We don't need to mark the parser as interactive, we can just remove that line.
Fixes#6539.
Use some more move semantics to reduce allocations.
Correctly handle the case where the completion is empty. For example, if
you type:
ls<tab>
we get an empty completion (since ls is already a valid command), but we
still want to show its description.
Remove some unsafe statics - these are unsafe today in weird cases where
completions might invoke complete recursively, and also will soon be
unsafe with concurrent execution.
Prior to this fix, fish was rather inconsistent in when $status gets set
in response to an error. For example, a failed expansion like "$foo["
would not modify $status.
This makes the following inter-related changes:
1. String expansion now directly returns the value to set for $status on
error. The value is always used.
2. parser_t::eval() now directly returns the proc_status_t, which cleans
up a lot of call sites.
3. We expose a new function exec_subshell_for_expand() which ignores
$status but returns errors specifically related to subshell expansion.
4. We reify the notion of "expansion breaking" errors. These include
command-not-found, expand syntax errors, and others.
The upshot is we are more consistent about always setting $status on
errors.
Sometimes we must spawn a new thread, to avoid the risk of deadlock.
Ensure we always spawn a thread in those cases. In particular this
includes the fillthread.
complete -C'echo $HOM ' would complete $HOM instead of a new token.
Fixes another regression introduced in
6fb7f9b6b - Fix completion for builtins with subcommands
64 is too low (it's actually reachable), and every sensible system should have a limit above
this.
On OpenBSD and FreeBSD it's ULONG_MAX, on my linux system it's 61990.
Plus we currently fail by hanging if our limit is reached, so this
should improve things regardless.
On my linux system _POSIX_THREAD_THREADS_MAX works out to 64 here,
which is just too low, even tho the system can handle more.
Fixes#6503 harder.
This commit recognizes an existing pattern: many operations need some
combination of a set of variables, a way to detect cancellation, and
sometimes a parser. For example, tab completion needs a parser to execute
custom completions, the variable set, should cancel on SIGINT. Background
autosuggestions don't need a parser, but they do need the variables and
should cancel if the user types something new. Etc.
This introduces a new triple operation_context_t that wraps these concepts
up. This simplifies many method signatures and argument passing.
When executing a buffered block or builtin, the usual approach is to
execute, collect output in a string, and then output that string to
stdout or whatever the redirections say. Similarly for stderr.
If we get no output, then we can elide the outputting which means
skipping the background thread. In this case we just mark the process as
finished immediately.
We do this in multiple locations which is confusing. Factor them all
together into a new function run_internal_process_or_short_circuit.
for-loops that were not inside a function could overwrite global
and universal variables with the loop variable. Avoid this by making
for-loop-variables local variables in their enclosing scope.
This means that if someone does:
set a global
for a in local; end
echo $a
The local $a will shadow the global one (but not be visible in child
scopes). Which is surprising, but less dangerous than the previous
behavior.
The detection whether the loop is running inside a function was failing
inside command substitutions. Remove this special handling of functions
alltogether, it's not needed anymore.
Fixes#6480
'fish_test_helper print_pid_then_sleep' tried to sleep for .5 seconds,
but instead it divided by .5 so it actually slept for 2 seconds.
This exceeds the maximum value on NetBSD so it wasn't sleeping at all
there.
Fixes#6476
Empty items are used as sentinels to indicate that we've reached the end of
history, so they should not be added as actual items. Enforce this.
