shells/bosh: Update to 20200812

New features with AN-2020-07-18:
- Bourne Shell: A new symlink from /opt/schily/xpg4/bin/bosh to
  /opt/schily/xpg4/bin/sh is created when "smake install" is called.
  This helps people to call "bosh" in strict POSIX mode using the
  command line name "bosh" by putting /opt/schily/xpg4/bin in PATH
  before /opt/schily/bin, where the bosh implements better backwards
  cmpatibility to the Bourne Shell by default than a strictly POSIX
  compliant bosh would do. /opt/schily/xpg4/bin/bosh behaves the same
  as "/opt/schily/bin/bosh -o posix".

  Thanks to  Koichi Nakashima for reporting.

New features with AN-2020-08-12:
- autoconf: added a new test for the existence of <sys/auxv.h>

- autoconf: added new tests for Linux getauxval() and FreeBSD elf_aux_info()

- libschily: getexecpath.c now uses getauxval() on Linux and elf_aux_info()
  on FreeBSD. This was needed since readlink("/proc/curproc/file") on
  FreeBSD returns random values for hardlinked files, making it impossible
  to use the result in order to find out which behavior variant of a
  fat binary is requested.

- Bourne Shell: Several #ifdef SIG* have been added to make it compile
  on older UNIX versions.

  Thanks to a hint from Albert Wik.

Log message:
shells/bosh: Update to 20200701

Take maintainership.

Changelog from AN-2020-07-01:
- Bourne Shell: A command like

      bosh -c 'var=$({ echo value >&3; } 3>&1); echo $var'

  Did not print "value" as expected, but rather bosh: 3: bad file number

  This is related to the fact that curly brackets do not have an
  own binary node type in the parsed output and the recursive parser
  from the $(cmd) execution needs to reconstruct the text form
  of a command tree. As a result, the command has been translated
  into:

      bosh -c 'var=$( echo value >&3 3>&1); echo $var'

  and this caused the observed problem.

  Note that this basic problem may not be finally fixed, so please
  report in case that other commands with curly brackets together
  with $(cmd) cause problems.

  Thanks to Koichi Nakashima for reporting.

- Bourne Shell: Added a unit test for the bug above.

Log message:
bosh: Update to 20200211

New features with AN-2020-02-11:

-  Bourne Shell: now also using GETOPT_PLUS_FL

-  Bourne Shell: A new variable ${.sh.path} returns the absolute path
   of the binary associated to the exec() for this shell.

-  Bourne Shell: The definition of NUMBUFLEN was moved from print.c to
   defs.h to allow others to write into numbuf, knowing it's length.

-  Bourne Shell: The archive sh/dotfiles.tar.bz2 now contains an updated
   .shrc file that makes use of the new shell variable ${.sh.path}

-  Bourne Shell: "for i in; do cmd ...; done" is now valid syntax even
   though this is useless, since bosh did already accept:

      "for i in $emptyvar ; do cmd ...; done"

   But this is in the POSIX standard and other recent shells seem to
   accept it.

   Thanks to Robert Elz for reporting

-  Bourne Shell: Added a new conformance test for the for loop

-  Bourne Shell: The call "bosh -version" now prints 2020...

-  Bourne Shell Missing features for POSIX compliance:

   - Support for $'...' quoting (this is not needed for the current
               version of POSIX but for the next POSIX
               version that will be named SUSv8).
               The development of SUSv8 will start in
               late 2016.

   We are now expecting the Bourne Shell to be fully POSIX compliant.

-  libschily: new man pages starthandlecond.3 and unhandlecond.3

-  libschily: handlecond.3 and raisecond.3 now correctly mention
   handlecond() & raisecond() instead of handle()/raise(). The old names
   from 1980 had to be renamed because os an unfriendly actt from the
   C standard commitee.

   Thanks to Eric Ackermann for reporting
   as a side effect of a code review for SchilliX-ON

-  libschily: various small fixes in various man pages from libschily.

   Thanks to Eric Ackermann for reporting
   as a side effect of a code review for SchilliX-ON

[...]

-  Bourne Shell further TODO list:

   -   Finish loadable builtin support.

   -   POSIX does not allow us to implement ". -h", so we will
      add a "source" builtin to be able to implement "source -h"

-  The following builtins (that are available in bsh) are still missing in
   the Bourne Shell:

   err         echo with output going to stderr
   glob         echo with '\0' instead of ' ' between args
   env         a builtin version of /usr/bin/env

   The following bsh intrinsics are still missing in the Bourne Shell:

   -         the restricted bsh has restriction features that
            are missing in the Bourne shell.

   -   source -h   read file into history but do not execute

   and probably more features not yet identified to be bsh unique.

shells/bosh: Update to 20191205

Based on Schily Tools Release 2019-12-05.

AN-2019-11-11:
-   libschily: the new functions wcastoi wcastol wcastolb that have been
    added with the previous release have been forgotten in the linker map
    file.

AN-2019-12-05:
-   include/schily/stdio.h: We no longer define getc_unlocked() on Solaris
    in case that it is defined already. This was needed since Oracle
    Solaris 11.4 compiles 64 bit by default and made stdio less opaque
    than before - this result in the same bahavior as for 32 bit programs.
    This means, we no longer need to use tricks to get fast access to
    stdio.

    Thanks to Rolf Dietze for reporting.

-   libschily: the function getargs() and similar (from the option parser
    group) fixed a bug that prevented the usability of the official method
    to include the char '+' inside option names by quoting the character
    in the option name used in the format string.

    This bug has been fixed in order to be able to support "star -dump+ \ 
..."

-   libshedit: because of the changes in Oracle Solaris 11.4, we need to
    #undef FAST_GETC_PUTC in order to avoid to use getc_unlocked().

    Thanks to Rolf Dietze for reporting.

-   Bourne Shell/bsh: */hashcmd.c did not handle a malloc()ed string
    correctly and could cause a memory leak with hash commands that
    do not add new aliases.

    We now create a copy using make()/makestr() before calling ab_push()
    or ab_insert() and always free "name" at the end of the function
    hashcmd()

-   Bourne Shell: The man page now documents that the command

        "set -o hashcmds"

    inside the file $HOME/.shrc makes a # on the fist column of that
    file and followed by a non-space character, no longer a comment..
    It is thus recommended to have "set -o hashcmds" close to the.
    bottom of the file $HOME/.shrc

Log message:
shells/bosh: Update to 20191025

Based on schilytools release from 2019-10-25.

Changelog
=========
- include/schily/wchar.h: Some fallback definitions for
  mbsinit() mbrtowc() wcrtomb() have been moved to make them always
  visible and not only in case that <wchar.h> exists.

- include/schily/wchar.h: Before, we checked for HAVE_ISWPRINT to catch
  the HP-UX-10.20 case where wchar_t is in stdlib.h. Now we check
  (SIZEOF_WCHAR == 0 || SIZEOF_WCHAR_T == 0) as this works on Ultrix as
  well.

- libgetopt: The getopt() function now supports options in the form:

     +o, ++long-option or +long-option

  if the optstring starts with a '+'. A new exported variable
  "optflags" has the bit "OPT_PLUS" set, in case that an \ 
actual option
  starts with '+'.

  If more than one of the flag characters ':', '+' or "()" are used,
  "()" must be last.

- Bourne Shell: The testsuite no longer tries to check ISO-8859-1 strings
  as we cannot set this up reliably on all platforms and as Mac OS does
  not allow to create the related filenames.

- Bourne Shell: The getopts(1) builtin command now supports options in.
  the form:

     +o, ++long-option or +long-option

  if the optstring starts with a '+'. The shell variable "$NAME" has
  a leading '+' in case that an actual option starts with '+'.

  Note that this makes getopts(1) in the Bourne Shell compatible at
  shell script level to the extensions in the getopts(1) implementation
  in ksh93 for:

     -o/+o   Short options with either a leading - or +

     --long  GNU style long options as aliases to short -o options

     ++long  GNU style long options as aliases to short +o options

  Our enhancements to support:

     -long   UNIX style long options as aliases to short -o options

     +long   UNIX style long options as aliases to short +o options

     -       Long options the have no related short option

  Are not supported by ksh93.

Log message:
shells/bosh: Update to 20191007

Based on SchilyTools Release from 2019-10-07.

Changelog
=========
- configure: Some shells report a syntax error with "< file (cmd)"
  and need the redirection statement to be *after* the command. Our
  changes to support the V7 shell by adding round braces caused ash
  variants like "dash" to fail.

  Thanks to Harald van Dijk for reporting

- cont/cc-config.sh: canged some :>some-file statements into
  (:)>some-file. they have meen missed when introducing work arounds
  for the V7 Shell on Ultrix that does not support I/O redirection
  for builtin commands.

  Thanks to Robert Clausecker for reporting

- libschily/comerr.c: If the environment COMERR_EXCODE has been set to
 a value that starts with '0', the normal exit code mapping is switched
 off, but all potential exit code values != 0 that follow the rule

     (excode % 256) == 0

  are mapped to -64. This helps to avoid unexpected behavior with
  historic shells that still use the old waitpid() and modern
  shells (using waitid() but in a backward compatible default mode)
  where a program that terminates with

     exit(256);

  is evaluated in conditional statements as if the exit code was 0.

- Bourne Shell: Missing Makefile.dot added.

- Bourne Shell / bsh / ved: The dotdiles TAR archives are now again named
  */dotfiles.tar.bz2 as the change in the previous release caused
  problems.

  Thanks for Gabriele Balducci balducci@units.it and Robert Clausecker
  for reporting

- Bourne Shell: Cstyle changes (long lines removed) in io.c & expand.c

- Bourne Shell: Fixed a bug that prevented to forward the special exit
  cause (NOTFOUND or NOEXEC) to the vfork() parent process via.
  struct siginfo.si_code in some cases. These values are added beyond
  the POSIX CLD_* values in siginfo.si_code from the POSIX standard.
  They are passed back from the vfork()ed child to the parent via the
  shared memory from the vfork() implementation.

- Bourne Shell: introduced shared memory to be able to forward the
  special exit cause (NOTFOUND or NOEXEC) to the parent even in case it
  used fork() instead of vfork().

- Bourne Shell: Added support for a new automatic parameter "$/" to
  complement the existing parameter "$?".

  This is a result from a discussion in a POSIX teleconference from
  April 2016.

  This new parameter returns *decimal numbers* for a normal command
  termination and *text* for abnormal command termination:

  number<>Exit code from normal termination. This is a signed 32 bit
     value from the exit() parameter on POSIX systems and a 8 bit
     value on pre-POSIX systems like Linux.

  signame>A signal name (see kill -l) if the command has been terminated
     by a signal. This is the signal name with the leading "SIG"
     stripped off.

  NOEXEC<>The command was found but could not be executed, e.g. as
     a result of missing permissions or because the name points
     to a directory.

  NOTFOUND The command could not be found.

  Note that currently, the strings "NOEXEC" and "NOTFOUND" \ 
are passed
  back reliably from vfork(2) childs or when the related state is already
  known by the cache. In other cases, the reliability of $/ with respect
  to "NOEXEC" and "NOTFOUND" has not yet been verified. It \ 
thus may
  return 126 or 127 as with $?. The string values "NOEXEC" and \ 
"NOTFOUND"
  cannot be passed back from a subshell, using only the waitid()
  mechanism. To circumvent that problem, from fork()ed subshells,.
  shared memory or non-fork()ed virtual subshells would work.

  If you detect a complex command where you get 126 or 127 instead of
  the exoected "NOEXEC" or "NOTFOUND", please send a report.

  We for now choose to use shared memory as this is easier to implement.
  Later versions will mosy likely implement virtual fork()less
  subshells.

- Bourne Shell: minor Cstyle changes on word.c and macro.c

- Bourne Shell: New version date
   2019-10-04 16:01:14 by Michael Baeuerle | Files touched by this commit (3)
Log message:
bosh: Switch to latest distfile.

Changelog
=========

Release 2019-03-29:
- Bourne Shell: local(1), export(1) and readonly(1) now all support to.
  expand the '~' character in environment variables like e.g. PATH.

- Bourne Shell: Added unit tests for the tilde expansion and the related
  changes.

Release 2019-04-29:
- libshedit/bsh/Bourne Shell: The TAB file name expansion now uses a new
  expansion funtion that is not based on pattern matching but on strstr()
  and thus is no longer fooled by file names that contain pattern matching
  meta characters.

- Bourne Shell: "trap -- ..." now correctly handles "--" \ 
even if the next
  argument is "-".

- Bourne Shell: trap now supports a new option -p that allows to restore
  the whole trap state using the following commands:

     old_traps=$(trap -p)
     trap "some commands" INT QUIT
     ...
     eval "$old_traps"

  This is possible because "trap -p" outputs the state for all signals
  and not only for those signals that are not in the default state.

  The new trap interfase was agreed on in the 2019-04-11 POSIX
  teleconference.

  Bourne Shell: The exception for "while true; do date; done | uniq -c"
  in job control handling that has been introduced in November 2015 has
  been refined to prevent it from causing "(bosh)" to stop from SIGTTIN.

  Thanks to Robert Elz <kre@munnari.OZ.AU> for reporting.

- Bourne Shell: A new #define JOB_DEBUG has been added.

- Bourne Shell: The command:

     (trap '' SEGV; $SHELL -c 'kill -s SEGV $$; echo survived')

  caused the shell not to print "survived" because a previous exception
  for SIGSEGV from the 1977 Bourne Shell version had not been removed
  for the POSIX variant of the shell. The problem occured because it
  was possible to unignore an ignored (at startup) SIGSEGV.

  Thanks to Robert Elz <kre@munnari.OZ.AU> for reporting.

- Bourne Shell: The code now uses SIG2STR_MAX for the size of the
  sig2str() output buffer.

- Bourne Shell: the behavior related to SIGINT on the command line
  in the case that the history editor is enabled has been changed to
  match the behavior of ksh. The Bourne Shell now calls trap commands
  for SIGINT when ^C is typed on the command line.

  Note that the classical Bourne Shell behavior (which is still active
  in case the history editor has been disabled via "set +o ved") is that
  the trap command is called after ^C is followed by a CR if both are
  typed on a PS1 prompt.

  Note: The behavior for "trap" in this area is currently not specified
  in POSIX.

- Bourne Shell: After jobcontrol has been introduced into the Bourne
  Shell: When in jobcontrol mode, the shell could no longer get
  signals at the same time as foreground jobs because when using
  jobcontrol, the shell is in a different process group than the
  foreground job.

  The Bourne Shell now derives the information about a delivered signal
  from the waitid() return data and thus is now able to work the same
  way as it has been designed in 1977. This is the same way as ksh works.

  If a foreground program catches such signals, the shell is still not
  able to detect the signal, but it is now closer to the original
  behavior from 1977.

- Bourne Shell: new version date 2019-04-17

Release 2019-05-28:
- Bourne Shell: Similar to what ksh88 does, scripts are now checked
  before they are run. If there is a nul byte before a newline
  in the first 256 bytes, a file is rejected as alien binary
  instead of trying to interpret it as a script.

Release 2019-06-13:
- Bourne Shell: A new option "set -o globskipdot" has been added.
  If set, the entries "."  and ".." are skipped and not \ 
shown in globbing
  results. If not set, the entries "."  and ".." are always \ 
returned,
  even when they are not part of the readdir(3) results.

- Bourne Shell: The option "set -o globskipdot" has been made the
  new dfault behavior for "bosh", but not for "pbosh"

  Note that this new shell option has been introduced as a result
  of a related BUG discussion in the Austin Group telephone conference.
  The background is to permit shell scripts to check whether a shell
  grants to hide the "."  and ".." for all filesystems.

Release 2019-07-15:
- Bourne Shell: If OPTIND is set to a new value, the getopt() internal
  variable "_sp" is now reset to 1. This is needed in order to make sure
  that a combined option string can be parsed correctly.

- Bourne Shell/libshedit/bsh: The TAB expander now again gives .. as a.
  result if the pattern is ..

  This is needed in order to let ..TAB result in ../ on the command
  line editor.

Release 2019-09-22:
- Bourne Shell: The new function isbinary() that has been introduced
  in May and that should prevent the shell from interpreting binary
  files as shell scripts had a problem:

  In case that a disconnected TCP/IP based remote login caused a SIGTERM
  followed by the read() function on stdin returning EIO, the shell
  could go into a complex endless loop as the failing read() with
  "trapnote" set caused a longjmp() before the next prompt without first
  clearing "trapnote". As a result, the shell did hang endlessly around
  while just consuming CPU time.

  The shell now avoids to call the read() routine inside isbinary()
  when "trapnote" is set and this way is able to avoid the longjmp() on
  error.

- Bourne Shell: Fixed some typos in comment

  Thanks to Robert Clausecker for reporting

- Bourne Shell: print.c: Changed err++ for a BOOL typed variable
  into err = TRUE.

  Thanks to Robert Clausecker for reporting

- Bourne Shell, with obosh compilation type: Avoid an "unused" warning
  with word.c

- Bourne Shell: defs.h now includes an "extern int optopt;" in order
  to support Ultrix where this delcaration is missing in unistd.h.

  Thanks to Robert Clausecker for reporting

- bsh/Bourne Shell: test.c Now using a

     #if defined(S_IFPORT) && S_IFPORT != S_IFIFO

  to work around a strange definition on Ultrix

  Thanks to Robert Clausecker for reporting

- Bourne Shell: New version date
