If we detect a recursive variable reference when constructing the
environment for the shell function, return the original value from the
caller's environment. Other options such as failing, returning the
empty string, or returning the unexpanded make variable value have
been shown to not behave well in real-world environments. If the
variable doesn't exist in the caller's environment, return the empty
string.
Found by Sergei Trofimovich <slyich@gmail.com> when testing older
versions of autoconf.
* NEWS: Clarify this behavior.
* doc/make.texi (Shell Function): Ditto. Also add info about !=.
* src/expand.c (recursively_expand_for_file): Search the caller's
environment if we detect a recursive variable expansion.
* tests/scripts/functions/shell: Add tests for this behavior.
The fix for SV 10593 caused recursive expansion errors when exporting
a variable that contains a $(shell ...) invocation. If we see this
type of recursion, ignore it and expand to the empty string rather
than failing.
* src/variable.h (env_recursion): New global variable.
* src/variable.c (target_environment): If creating the environment
for a $(shell ...) function increment env_recursion. Remove the
check for expansion in a shell function context.
* src/expand.c (recursively_expand_for_file): Check for recursive
expansion in a $(shell ...) environment context and if present,
show the verbose message and return the empty string.
* tests/scripts/functions/shell: Add a test for this situation.
Some POSIX systems do not allow locks to be taken on non-files, such
as pipes. This is a problem since very often make is invoked with
its stdout redirected to a pipe. Also, if stdout is redirected to a
file that already has a lock on it for some other reason (perhaps a
shared file such as /dev/null) it can cause a hang.
This means our previous method of locking stdout, although it had some
nice advantages, is not portable enough. Instead, use a temporary
file and take the lock on that. We pass the name of the file to child
make processes. On Windows we continue to use a shared mutex for
output sync.
Remove POSIX emulation functions like fcntl from Windows; instead
follow the lead of the jobserver and create an interface in os.h for
output sync, and move the OS-specific content to posixos.c and
w32os.c.
* NEWS: Add a note.
* src/makeint.h (ALL_SET): Check that all bits are set.
* src/os.h: Add bits for checking the state of stdin/stdout/stderr.
Add prototypes for OS-specific output sync methods.
* src/posixos.c (check_io_state): Determine the status of stdin,
stdout, stderr an return a suite of bits describing them.
(osync_enabled): If the global variable holding the FD of the lock
file (osync_handle) is valid return true.
(osync_setup): Create a temporary file and remember its name in a
global variable (osync_tmpfile), and set osync_handle.
(osync_get_mutex): If output sync is enabled, return the filename
of the lock file prefixed with "fnm:" to denote a filename.
(osync_parse_mutex): If the provided filename has the wrong format
disable output sync. Else open the lock file and set osync_handle.
(osync_clear): Close osync_handle. If we're the parent make, then
also unlink the temporary file.
(osync_acquire): Take a lock on the osync_handle descriptor.
(osync_release): Release the lock on the osync_handle descriptor.
(fd_set_append): Add APPEND mode to a file descriptor.
* src/w32/w32os.c: Perform the same actions as posixos.c, copying
the details from src/w32/compat/posixfcn.c. Use a mutex rather
than locking a temporary file.
* src/output.h: Remove all the OS-specific content.
* src/output.c: Remove all the OS-specific content.
(set_append_mode): Remove and replace with fd_set_append().
(sync_init): Remove and replace with check_io_state().
(acquire_semaphore): Remove and replace with osync_acquire().
(release_semaphore): Remove and replace with osync_release().
(setup_tmpfile): If the IO state is not obtained, get it. If stdout
and/or stderr are valid, set up a tempfile to capture them.
(output_init): Set io_state if not set already, and check it when
deciding whether to close stdout on exit.
* src/main.c (main): If we're syncing, set up the mutex using the
new osync_setup() / osync_parse_mutex() methods.
(prepare_mutex_handl_string): Replace with osync_parse_mutex().
(die): Call osync_clear().
* src/w32/compat/posixfcn.c: Remove implementations of fcntl(),
record_sync_mutex(), create_mutex(), and same_stream().
Using anonymous pipes for jobserver support has some advantages:
for example there is nothing on disk that needs to be cleaned up.
However it has many obscure problems, related to the fact that in
order for it to work we need to ensure these resources are properly
passed through to child processes that want to use the jobserver.
At the same time we don't want to pass the pipe to process which
DON'T know about the jobserver.
Other processes can open file descriptors which we then think are
our jobserver, but aren't. And, we open the pipe file descriptors
in blocking mode which doesn't work for all users.
See issues such as SV 57178, SV 57242, and SV 62397
To avoid these issues, use named pipes (on systems where they are
available) instead of anonoymous pipes. This simplifies many things:
we never need to pass open file descriptors to our children; they
can open the jobserver named pipe. We don't need to worry about
recursive vs. non-recursive children. Users don't have to "pass
through" the resources if they are invoking sub-makes. Each child
can open its own file descriptor and set blocking as needed.
The downside is the named pipe exists on disk and so must be cleaned
up when the "top-level" make instance exits.
In order to allow make to continue to be used in build systems where
older versions of GNU make, or other tools that want to use the
jobserver, but don't understand named pipes, introduce a new option
--jobserver-style that allows the user to choose anonymous pipes.
* NEWS: Announce the change and the --jobserver-style option.
* doc/make.1: Add --jobserver-style documentation.
* doc/make.texi (Special Variables): Add missing items to .FEATURES.
(Options Summary): Add --jobserver-style.
(POSIX Jobserver): Named pipes, changes to --jobserver-auth, and the
--jobserver-style option.
(Windows Jobserver): Document --jobserver-style for Windows.
* configure.ac: Check for mkfifo.
* src/config.h-vms.template: Undefined HAVE_MKFIFO.
* src/config.h.W32.template: Ditto.
* src/main.c: Add jobserver-style as a new command line option.
(main): Add jobserver-fifo to .FEATURES if supported. Pass the style
option to jobserver_setup().
* src/os.h (jobserver_setup): Accept a style string option.
* src/posixos.c (enum js_type): Enumeration of the jobserver style.
(js_type): Which style we are currently using.
(fifo_name): The path to the named pipe (if in use).
(jobserver_setup): If no style is given, or "fifo" is given, set up a
named pipe: get a temporary file and use mkfifo() on it, then open it
for reading and writing. If something fails fall back to anonymous
pipes.
(jobserver_parse_auth): Parse jobserver-auth to determine the style.
If we are using a named pipe, open it. If we're using anonymous pipes
ensure they're valid as before.
(jobserver_get_invalid_auth): Don't invalidate the jobserver when
using named pipes.
(jobserver_clear): Clean up memory used for named pipes.
(jobserver_acquire_all): Unlink the named pipe when done.
* src/w32/w32os.c (jobserver_setup): Check the style argument.
* tests/scripts/features/jobserver: Use --jobserver-style to test
the anonymous pipe behavior, and also test named pipe/semaphore
behavior. Check invalid jobserver-style options.
* tests/scripts/functions/shell: Use --jobserver-style to test the
anonymous pipe behavior, and also test named pipe/semaphore
behavior.
* src/main.c (main): Don't reset the jobserver if the number of
slots has not changed.
(define_makeflags): Add all normal flags even when ALL is not set.
* tests/scripts/functions/shell: Test invoking make in $(shell ...).
* tests/scripts/variables/MAKEFLAGS: Test the value of MAKEFLAGS in
$(shell ...).
Export all variables, including exported makefile variables, when
invoking a shell for the $(shell ...) function. If we detect a
recursive variable expansion, silently ignore that variable and do
not export it. We do print a debug message.
* NEWS: Announce the potential backward-incompatibility.
* doc/make.texi (Shell Function): Document the export behavior.
* src/main.c (main): Add "shell-export" to .FEATURES.
* src/job.h: New function to free struct childbase.
* src/job.c (free_childbase): Implement it; call from free_child.
* src/function.c (func_shell_base): Use target_environment() to
obtain the proper environment for the shell function.
Use free_childbase() to free memory.
(windows32_openpipe): Don't reset the environment: the caller
already provided a proper PATH variable in envp.
* src/variable.c (target_environment): If we detect a recursive
expansion and we're called from func_shell, ignore the variable.
(sync_Path_environment): Simplify and reduce memory allocation.
* tests/scripts/functions/shell: Add tests for this.
If a $(shell ...) invocation failed due to a command-not-found error,
make wrote the stdout of that shell to our stderr for some reason.
That seems very wrong.
If the command's stderr was not redirected then its output would have
already been written to its stderr, and if it was redirected then we
shouldn't take it upon ourselves to force it to go to stderr!
* src/function.c (func_shell_base): Append shell stdout even if the
shell command failed.
* tests/run_make_tests.pl: Determine the error generated for
command-not-found situations.
* tests/scripts/functions/shell: Verify that redirecting stderr to
stdout will behave properly if the command is not found.
We don't need to parse strings into C integer values to compare them.
* src/function.c (parse_textint): Find boundaries of a numeric string.
(func_intcmp): Use parse_textint() to compare integers textually.
* tests/scripts/functions/intcmp: Test with extra-large numbers.
* src/function.c (parse_numeric): Check for empty value and error.
If we find ERANGE just print our own error, not strerror.
(func_word): Use a generic "not good" error message.
(func_wordlist): Ditto
(func_intcmp): Ditto
* tests/run_make_tests.pl: Remove code to find strerror(ERANGE)
* tests/scrips/functions/intcmp: Update the error message.
* tests/scrips/functions/word: Ditto.
Modify make functions that parse integer values to use long long
values instead of long: on Windows long is the same as int (4 bytes)
and we don't want behavior to differ between different platforms.
* bootstrap.conf: Change strtol module to strtoll module.
* src/function.c (parse_numeric): Use strtoll() and return long long.
(func_word): Use long long.
(func_wordlist): Use long long. Verify second argument is >= 0.
(func_intcmp): Use long long.
* src/config.ami.template: Don't define HAVE_STRTOLL.
* src/config-vms.template: Define HAVE_STRTOLL.
* src/config.W32.template: Define HAVE_STRTOLL.
* tests/run_make_tests.pl: Set $ERR_out_of_range to the proper string.
* tests/scripts/functions/word: Rework to use the new style and avoid
TAB characters. Verify trailing whitespace is ignored. Add a test
for a negative second argument to wordlist. Add tests for max signed
integer values. Use $ERR_out_of_range for the error string.
* tests/scripts/functions/intcmp: Add tests for min and max signed
integer values. Use $ERR_out_of_range for the error string.
Numbers can come from $(words ...), automatic variables such as
$(MAKELEVEL), from environment variables, or from shell output such as
through $(shell expr ...). The $(intcmp ...) function allows
conditional evaluation controlled by numerical variables.
* NEWS: Announce this feature.
* doc/make.texi (Functions for Conditionals): Document 'intcmp'.
* src/function.c (func_intcmp): Create the 'intcmp' built-in function.
* tests/scripts/functions/intcmp: Test the 'intcmp' built-in function.
strtol() is part of C89 and a fallback is provided by gnulib.
* src/function.c (func_word, func_wordlist): Change atoi to strtol.
* test/scripts/functions/word: Add out-of-range verification testing.
* src/dep.h (DEP): Remove extraneous semicolon.
* src/dir.c (find_directory) [W32]: Replace removed variable.
* tests/scripts/features/include: Allow the extra default makefile
searched for on Windows.
* tests/scripts/functions/file: Use $(info ...) to avoid "command
too long" errors on Windows.
Keep a count of bytes read rather than comparing pointers since the
variable_buffer might get reallocated.

Provide a simple API for loaded objects to interact with GNU make. I still
won't guarantee that this API won't change but it's much closer to something
that's supported and provides easy-to-use interfaces with a public header
file.
On configure-enabled systems, configure will detect Guile installed
(using pkg-config, which is how GNU Guile is distributed) and enable
it if so.
On all non-configure-enabled systems, currently, the default is for
Guile support to be disabled.
