    <title>wait and ctrl+Z</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.shells.dash/716</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hello,

I noticed a strange behavior of "wait" when I suspend and resume a script.

$ cat a.sh
#!/bin/dash
(sleep 7; echo blah) &amp;amp;
(sleep 7; echo bloh) &amp;amp;
wait ; echo coucou
$ ./a.sh
^Z
zsh: suspended  ./a.sh
$ fg
[1]  + continued  ./a.sh
coucou
$ blah
bloh

As you can see, the instruction after "wait" was executed immediatly on 
resume, without waiting for the jobs.

If I replace the ';' after "wait" by "&amp;amp;&amp;amp;" and do the same suspend+resume, 
"coucou" is never printed.

I am using dash version 0.5.7-3 in debian testing.

&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi, I'm not a subscriber to this list and am not sure where's the best
place to report this bug. A cursory search didn't find other reports of
the same issue; but I can imagine there may well be such. If so, excuse
the noise. I'm just trying to help.

I notice the following issue in the version of dash that's bundled in a
recent release of finnix (not sure which one, but the kernel version is
3.0.6, so it's probably finnix 103, released 23 October 2011). I also
see it in the FreeBSD sh, from a FreeBSD-9 release candidate I compiled
in January. I know that's not dash, but I understand the codebases are
closely related. Neither of these are my active systems; hence the fuzzy
details.

Here is a testcase:

#!/bin/dash

test1() {
    local IN=$(cat)
    printf "test1 &amp;lt;%s&amp;gt;\n" "$IN"
}

test2() {
    local IN="$(cat)"
    printf "test2 &amp;lt;%s&amp;gt;\n" "$IN"
}

test3() {
    IN=$(cat)
    printf "test3 &amp;lt;%s&amp;gt;\n" "$IN"
}

test4() {
    IN=$(cat)
    printf "test4 &amp;lt;%s&amp;gt;\n" "$IN"
}

MSG=$(printf "abc\ndef\nghi")

printf "%s" "$MS&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

    <title>[PATCH] var.c: check for valid variable name before printing in "export -p"</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.shells.dash/704</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;From: Harald Hoyer &amp;lt;harald&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;redhat.com&amp;gt;

"export -p" prints all environment variables, without checking if the
environment variable is a valid dash variable name.

IMHO, the only valid usecase for "export -p" is to eval the output.

$ eval $(export -p); echo OK
OK

Without this patch the following test does error out with:

test.py:
import os
os.environ["test-test"]="test"
os.environ["test_test"]="test"
os.execv("./dash", [ './dash', '-c', 'eval $(export -p); echo OK' ])

$ python test.py
./dash: 1: export: test-test: bad variable name

Of course the results can be more evil, if the environment variable
name is crafted, that it injects valid shell code.

    <title>bug in handling of ignored traps</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.shells.dash/702</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Per POSIX requirements on trap, dash is properly refusing to let
non-interactive scripts reset signal handlers via trap if the shell was
started with an inherited ignored signal handler.  However, dash lies to
the user, making it impossible to tell if the user is invoking a shell
in an environment where a signal was inherited as ignored.  ksh and bash
are nicer about things, and at least let the user query whether a shell
is treating a particular signal as non-resettable.

This is important for shell scripts that WANT to guarantee a particular
behavior of SIGPIPE handling (such as this thread on writing a grep test
for covering the behavior of grep both with and without SIGPIPE
inherited as ignored:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-grep/2012-02/msg00016.html).

Bash behavior - you can learn about the ignored handler from the get-go:

$ (trap '' PIPE; bash -c 'trap; echo 0; trap "echo 1" PIPE; trap; \
     echo 2; kill -s PIPE $$; trap; echo 3')
trap -- '' SIGPIPE
0
trap -- '' SIGPIPE
2
trap -- '' SIGPI&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

    <title>[BUG] apache CustomLog pipe to a python script with sys.stdin.read() behaves weirdly with dash as system shell</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.shells.dash/699</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi,

I do not claim to understand what is happening here but I am reporting this as a
dash bug because I've seen this occur only with dash. Here is a description of
the problem:

The Apache module mod_log_config has a directive CustomLog[1] which lets you
send logs to a command rather than a file using the syntax like:

CustomLog "|/path/to/your/command" common

When apache executes, it then forks off a process for this command and executes
it using the default system shell.

I recently noticed that a python script that I had being using in this manner to
process logs for a long time now without any issues, suddenly started consuming
100% cpu, after a system update. When I investigated further, I realized that it
boiled down to a section of the script which was spinning the cpu. It did
something like:

import sys

while True:
    for line in sys.stdin:
        &amp;lt;do something with line&amp;gt;

so, it seemed like sys.stdin was not blocking. An strace proved me right and I
saw read() on stdin returning 0 even tho' no &lt;/pre&gt;</description>

    <title>/bin/dash -c != /bin/bash -c with pgrep</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.shells.dash/694</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hello,

my dash version is 0.5.5.1-7.4 (from debian/stable I believe)

I ran these two commands on a system where atftpd is not running and I am getting different results

/bin/dash -c "pgrep -f /usr/sbin/atftpd"; echo $?
-vs-
/bin/bash -c "pgrep -f /usr/sbin/atftpd"; echo $?

The dash version returns the PID of the grep itself and thus always succeeds.
The bash version works as expected.

Sorry if this is an old bug that is already fixed...
Has it been reported? (and fixed?) I saw a patch about the "-c" mode in  but it was reverted...

&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I am trying to determine why:

  dash -c "sleep 5 &amp;amp; kill %1"

results in:

  dash: 1: kill: No such process

whereas from an interactive dash

  sleep 5 &amp;amp; kill %1

seems to do exactly what it should.  Any hints?

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi!

I am an enthusiastic user of dash since a couple of months and use it on an embedded system (appliance) that is operating
all around the globe in all kinds of networks. I made the switch from bash to dash as soon as I found out that dash covers
99% of what I do with bash while requiring 10% of the ressources.

In the course of porting ~200 shell scripts (small three liners and a few big guys) from bash to dash, I ran into a few
issues (surprise surprise):

1. The usual "[[" and "==" stuff (pretty easy to change, thank you sed)
2. shift returns with a critical error when no arguments are left (no really good solution found)
3. $[] arithmetic stuff not working (OK, worked around that with bc)
4. The bash FUNCNAME variable was very valuable for debugging purposes and is nonexistent in dash

Now, since I solved point 1 and 3 by changing my code, all I did is creating a very small patch to deal with point 2 and,
since it is also not too complicated, I added patches to deal with point 1 and 4 as well.

I call&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

    <title>[PATCH] echo: fix octal escaping with \1...\7</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.shells.dash/664</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;POSIX states that octal escape sequences should take the form \0num
when using echo.  dash however additionally treats \num as an octal
sequence.  This breaks some packages (like libtool) who attempt to
use strings with these escape sequences via variables to execute sed
(since sed ends up getting passed a byte instead of a literal \1).

The code that consumes this sequence includes a comment that indicates
it doesn't actually mean to do this.  So simplify the code a bit by
ignoring these sequences that lack a leading 0 and falling through to
the existing escape parsing logic.

before:
$ echo '\1' | hexdump -C
00000000  01 0a                 |..|
after:
$ echo '\1' | hexdump -C
00000000  5c 31 0a              |\1.|
(existing \01 sequence still works the same)

This also slightly shrinks the resulting compiled code :).

    <title>evaluation of env variables in DASH</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.shells.dash/660</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi.
  The following DASH behaviour seems buggy to me

-----------------
$ export A='\n'
$ echo $A

$
-----------------

whereas using BASH would result in printing literally \n .

I.e. presumingly DASH does secondary interpolation of escaped
symols in values of environment variables. 

Please CC me with replies, I am not in the list.

Thanks, regards,
  Dima.

P.S.
  Wrom the other hand

$ export B=1
$ export A='$B'
$ echo $A
PRINTS $B
$
