This fixes#5438 by having fish block while waiting on a foreground job
via its individual processes by enumerating the procs in reverse order,
such that we hang waiting for the last job in the IO chain to terminate,
rather than the first.
The function `add_disowned_pgid` adds process *group* ids and not
process ids. It multiplies the value by negative 1 to indicate a wait
on a process group, so the original value must be positive.
If a job is disowned that, for some reason, has a pgid that is special
to waitpid, like 0 (process with pgid of the calling process), -1 (any
process), or our actual pgid, that would lead to us waiting for too
many processes when we later try to reap the disowned processes (to
stop zombies from appearing).
And that means we'd snag away the processes we actually do want to
wait for, which would end with us in a waiting loop.
This is tough to reproduce, the easiest I've found was
fish -ic 'sleep 5 &; disown; set -g __fish_git_prompt_showupstream auto; __fish_git_prompt'
in a git repo.
What we do is to not allow special pgids in the disowned_pids list.
That means we might leave a zombie around (though we probably wait on
0 somewhere), but that's preferable to infinitely looping.
See #5426.
This happens in firejail, and it means that we can't use it as an
argument to most pgid-taking functions.
E.g. `wait(0)` means to wait for the _current_ process group,
`tcsetpgrp(0)` doesn't work etc.
So we just stop doing this stuff and hope it works.
Fixes#5295.
This reverts commit 1cb8b2a87b.
argv[0] has the full path in it for a user when he executes it
out of $PATH. This is really annoying in the title which uses $_.
Also check if that is actually defined, not the cur_term proxy.
In #5371, we figured out that there are terminfo entries without this
capability, so this would do a NULL-dereference.
... rather than hard code it to "fish". This affects
what is found in $_ and improves the errors:
For example, if fish was ran with ./fish, instead of
something like:
fish: Expected 3 surprises, only got 2 surprises
we'll see:
./fish: Expected 3 surprises, only got 2 surprises
like most other shell utilities. It's just a tiny bit
of detail that can avoid confusion.
Now jobs are aware of their parent jobs, and can interrogate those jobs,
to determine if every job in the chain is fully constructed.
Remove flags and the static stacks that manipulated them.
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().
select_try() returned IO_ERROR to indicate that there's no file descriptors
from which to read. Name this return value properly.
Also migrate this type into proc.cpp since it's not used outside of the
header.
This is an opposite case from the usual "pipe into grep-the-function"
where my `pbpaste` emitted a lot of content exceeding the OS pipe
buffer. The `block_on_fg` condition was just `send_sigcont` in the
original job control rewrite, and it was incorrect to sub it for
WAIT_BY_PROCESS on its own.
However, this requires always blocking when select_try returns an
interrupted/incomplete read or else fish doesn't block and stays running
in a tight loop in the background (and incorrectly writing to a terminal
it doesn't own under higher debug levels), which I *think* is OK.
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`.
When a function is encountered by exec_job, a new context is created for
its execution from the ground up, with a new job and all, ultimately
resulting in a recursive call to exec_job from the same (main) thread.
Since each time exec_job encounters a new job with external commands
that needs terminal control it creates a new pgrp and gives it control
of the terminal (tcsetpgrp & co), this effectively takes control away
from the previously spawned external commands which may be (and likely
are) expecting to still have terminal access.
This commit attempts to detect when such a situation arises by handling
recursive calls to exec_job (which can only happen if the pipeline
included a function) by borrowing the pgrp from the (necessarily still
active) parent job and spawning new external commands into it.
When a parent job spawns new jobs due to the evaluation of a new
function (which shouldn't be the case in the first place), we end up
with two distinct jobs sharing one pgrp (to fix#3952). This can lead to
early termination of a pgrp if finished parent job children are reaped
before future processes in either the parent or future child jobs can
join it.
While the parent job is under construction, require that waitpid(2)
calls for the child job be done by process id and not job pgrp.
Closes#3952.
Use SIGCHLD to determine whether or not waitpid(2) calls can be elided,
but only with extreme caution. If we receive SIGCHLD but are not able to
reap all jobs, we need to iterate through them again.
For this to work, we need to make sure that we reap all children that we
can reap after a SIGCHLD, i.e. it's not OK to just reap the first and
return or else we can never clear the dirty state flag.
In all cases, as expensive as a call to waitpid() may be, if a child
process is available for reaping it is always cheaper to wait on it then
reap it than to call select_try() and end up timing out.
The old code was rather haphazard with regards to error control, and
would make mutable changes before operations that could fail without any
viable error handling options.
Convert `select_try()` to return a well-defined enum describing its
state, and handle each of the three possible cases with clear reasons
why we are blocking or not blocking in each subsequent call to
`process_mark_finished_children()`.
* Use the newly-introduced signal_block_t RAII wrapper
* Remove EINTR loops as all signals are blocked
* Clean up control flow thanks to RAII wrappers
* Rename parameter to clarify what it does and update docs accordingly
* Update outdated comments referencing SIGSTOP code that was removed a
long time ago.
* Remove no-op CHECK_BLOCK() call
* 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).
* Debug level 3: describe all commands being executed (this is, after all,
a shell and one can argue that this is the most important debug
information avaliable)
* Debug level 4: details of execution, mainly fork vs no-fork and io
handling
Also introduced j->preview() to print a short descriptor of the job
based on the head of the first process so we don't overwhelm with
needless repitition, but also so that we don't have to rely on
distinguishing between repeated, non-unique/non-monotonic job ids that
are often recycled within a single "execution cycle" (pressing enter
once).
Per @ridiculousfish's suggestions in #5219,
`process_mark_finished_children()` has been updated to work in an easier-
to-follow manner. Its behavior is now straight forward, it always checks
for finished processes but only blocks if `block_on_fg` is true.
We're not using the SIGCHLD count in s_sigchld_generation_cnt for
anything any more, as it's not actually a reliable metric since we can
experience one SIGCHLD as a result of two processes exiting (see #1768),
but only reap one of them if the other is in a not-fully-constructed job
(see #5219), a state we cannot possibly detect without calling
`waitpid()` on all child processes, which we are explicitly avoiding.
* Instead of reaping all child processes when we receive a SIGCHLD, try
reaping only processes belonging to process groups from fully-
constructed jobs, which should eliminate the need for the keepalive
process entirely (WSL's lack of zombies not withstanding) as now
completed processes are not reaped until the job has been fully
constructed (i.e. all processes launched), which means their process
group should still be around for new processes to join.
* When `tcgetpgrp()` calls return 0, attempt to `tcsetpgrp()` before
invoking failure handling code.
* When forking a builtin and not running interactively, do not bail if
unable to set/restore terminal attributes.
Fixes#4178. Fixes#3805. Fixes#5210.
Fix#5133 changed builtins to acquire the terminal, but this regressed
caused fish to be stopped when running in background via `sudo fish`.
Fix this by only acquiring the terminal if the terminal was owned by the
builtin's pgroup.
Fixes#5147
When running a builtin, if we are an interactive shell and stdin is a tty,
then acquire ownership of the terminal via tcgetpgrp() before running the
builtin, and set it back after.

Turns out the process-exit is only ever used in conjunction with
`%self`. Make that explicit by just adding a new "fish_exit" event,
and deprecate the general process-exit machinery.
Fixes#4700.
This concerns block nodes with redirections, like
begin ... end | grep ...
Prior to this fix, we passed in a pointer to the node. Switch to passing
in the tnode and parsed source ref. This improves type safety and better
aligns with the function-node plans.
There were several issues with the way that the include tests for curses.h
were being done that were ultimately causing fish to use the headers from
ncurses but link against curses on platforms that provide an actual
libcurses.so that isn't just a symlink to libncurses.so
In particular, the old code was first testing for curses's cureses.h and then
falling back to libncurses's implementation of the same - but that logic was
reversed when it came to including term.h, in which case it was testing for
the ncurses term.h and falling back to the curses.h header. Long story short,
while cmake will link against libcurses.so if both libcurses.so and
libncurses.so are present (unless CURSES_NEED_NCURSES evaluates to TRUE, but
that makes ncurses a hard requirement), but we were brining in some of the
defines from the ncurses headers, causing SIGSEGV panics when fish ultimately
tried to access variables that weren't exported or were mapped to undefined
areas of memory in the other library.
Additionally it is an error to include termios.h prior to including the plain
Jane curses.h (not ncurses/curses.h), causing errors about unimplemented types
SGTTY/chtype. So far as I can tell, both curses.h and ncurses/curses.h pull in
termios.h themselves so it shouldn't even be necessary to manually include it,
but I have just moved its #include below that of curses.h
