[TRAP] Make sure evalskip is zero before running traps

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



While reviewing the trap code I found the following anomaly:

dash -c 'trap ":; echo trap" USR1; while continue; do continue; done'&
while :; do
	kill -USR1 $!
done

One would expect to see a stream of traps but in fact nothing
is printed.  This is because evalskip is non-zero when entering
dotrap so only the first command in the first trap is executed.
tested seem to be fine.

Interestingly this bug also seems to affect bash.  The real ksh
also doesn't print trap, but it seems to not execute the trap at
all as even if you remove the first colon it still prints nothing.

    [TRAP] Make sure evalskip is zero before running traps
    
    As it is if dotrap is called with evalskip set to a nonzero value,
    it'll try to execute any set traps.  The result is that the first
    command in the first set trap will be executed while the rest of
    the trap will be silently ignored due to evalskip.  This is highly
    counterintuitive, even though both bash and ksh exhibit a similar
    behaviour.
    
    This patch fixes it by skipping trap processing if evalskip is set
    on entry.  It also adds a dotrap call to the top of evaltree to
    ensure that
    
    	while continue; do
    		continue;
    	done
    
    has a chance of running traps.
    
    Finally the pendingsigs check is moved into dotrap for compactness.
