-print_cmd.c
- - print_heredoc_bodies: take a list of redirections, all here documents,
- and print the here-document bodies including the ending delimiter,
- followed by a newline
- - print_redirection_list: print the heredoc headers the first time
- through the list of redirections so we print them in the same left-
- to-right order they're supplied; print the bodies and delimiters with
- print_heredoc_bodies after we print all the redirections if we're
- not printing a list of commands (printing_connection == 0). Fix for
- problem reported by Isabella Parakiss <izaberina@gmail.com>

- before checking word[2] and calling test_unop. Fixes out-of-bounds
- read reported by Franco Costantini <franco.costantini.20@gmail.com>
- - make sure to check all instances of the return value of the

- ----
-builtins/printf.def
- - bexpand: if passed a null or empty string, return a newly-allocated
- empty string (so the return value can always be freed) instead of
- NULL.
- - printstr: if passed a null string, treat it as if it were an empty
- string so any precision or fieldwidth arguments are handled
- correctly. Report from isabella parakiss <izaberina@gmail.com>
-
-subst.c
- - skip_matched_pair: make the flags argument of 1 affect whether or
- not backslash can quote characters in the string, so it affects
- all quoting mechanisms
-
-arrayfunc.c
- - unbind_array_element: now takes a third (flags) argument; flags&1
- means to not expand an associative array index. This is only called
- from a shell builtin context, which means the argument should have
- already undergone word expansion, so it should be ok. Will still
- be a problem for uses like "unset -v 'var[$ind]'", quoted to avoid
- globbing
- - valid_array_reference: pass second flags argument to skipsubscript;
- still set to 0 by all callers
-
-arrayfunc.h
- - unbind_array_element: updated prototype
-
-builtins/set.def
- - unset_builtin: add third argument of 1 to unbind_array_element calls
- [TEMPORARILY DISABLED]
- - unset_builtin: call valid_array_reference with second arg of 1 to
- handle unmatched pairs of quotes and [/]
-
-array.c
- - array_reference: optimize access locality as well as sequential
- access by adding ability to start from last-accessed element and move
- backwards or forwards depending on the desired index. Inspired by
- report from Tom McCurdy <tom.j.mccurdy@gmail.com> and followup from
- Christian Franke <Christian.Franke@t-online.de>
-
-variables.c
- - all_array_variables: include associative arrays, not just indexed
- arrays. Reported by Grisha Levit <grishalevit@gmail.com>
-
-execute_cmd.c
- - execute_disk_command: if we're optimizing out the fork (CMD_NO_FORK),
- decrement the shell level so we don't end up incrementing it twice.
- We should decrement the shell level for an implicit exec like an
- explicit one. Reported by Stephane Chazelas
- <stephane.chazelas@gmail.com>
-
-builtins/exec.def
- - exec_builtin: don't bother to decrement the shell level if we are
- already in a `(command)' subshell. Reported by Stephane Chazelas
- <stephane.chazelas@gmail.com>
-
-lib/readline/macro.c
- - macro_level: count of macro nesting level, maintained by
- _rl_push_executing_macro and _rl_pop_executing macro
- - _rl_with_macro_input: if current nesting level exceeds
- MAX_MACRO_LEVEL, abort the current command line with _rl_abort_internal
- and return to the top level. Reported by Christian Klomp
- <christianklomp@gmail.com>
-
-lib/readine/history.c
- - add_history: if allocating the history list for the first time,
- make sure the max history list size isn't so large that it will
- cause allocation errors. Cap it at MAX_HISTORY_INITIAL_SIZE
- (8192). Reported by Sean Zha <freeman_cha@hotmail.com>
-
-jobs.c
- - wait_for: if a foreground job with job control enabled is killed by a
- SIGINT and sourcelevel != 0, act as if we received the SIGINT so the
- file sourcing can be terminated. Reported by PePa
- <peterkelly@passchier.net>

- ----
-subst.c
- - read_comsub: only warn once for null bytes in command substitution
- output, instead of once for every null byte
-
-arrayfunc.c
- - array_variable_part: now takes a `flags' argument; changed all callers
- to initially pass 0
- - array_variable_name: now takes a `flags' argument; changed all callers
- to initially pass 0
- - array_variable_name: pass `flags' argument to skipsubscript instead
- of just passing 0
-
-arrayfunc.h
- - array_variable_{name,part}: added new argument to prototypes
-

-bashline.c
- - bash_directory_completion_hook: don't bother to try and expand a

- Fixes reports from John Passaro <john.a.passaro@gmail.com> and
- Valentin Bajrami <valentin.bajrami@gmail.com>
-
-lib/readline/history.c
- - _hs_append_history_line: use a strategy that attempts to avoid
- realloc copying memory to a newly-allocated block if the history
- line we're appending to gets `too long' (currently 256 bytes).
- We reallocate in powers of 2 starting at 512, and rely on realloc
- not allocating a new block and copying into it if the size is the
- same as the last call to realloc. Addresses issue raised by
- Hubert Schmid <h.schmid@gmx.de>
-
-trap.h
- - check_signals: new extern declaration
- - trapped_signal_received: new extern declaration
-
-builtins/read.def
- - read_builtin: if one of the zread* functions returns < 0 (which
- usually only happens in Posix mode), make sure we call check_signals()
- before eventually calling run_pending_traps() because zread() isn't
- going to call it
- - include trap.h for correct extern functions and variable declarations
-
-lib/sh/zread.c
- - zread: if executing a builtin, call check_signals_and_traps() for
- backwards compatibility. If not, call check_signals() only, because
- we don't want to run traps during, for instance, reading command
- substitution output. Fixes race condition bug reported by Luiz Angelo
- Daros de Luca <luizluca@gmail.com>
-
- 9/30
- ----
-subst.c
- - command_substitute: reset parse_and_execute_level to 0 in the child
- process, since it's independent of the other parse_and_execute
- calls. Adds command substitution inside other parse_and_execute
- calls optimizations to suppress forks, as suggested by
- Martijn Dekker <martijn@inlv.org>
-
- 10/3

-configure.ac
- - SHOBJ_STATUS: make sure it defaults to unsupported and is substituted

-
- 10/5

-array.h
- - array_first_index: new convenience define
-
-array.c
- - ADD_AFTER: new define, complement of ADD_BEFORE
- - UNSET_LASTREF: now takes an array as an argument, prepping for move
- of lastref pointer into the array struct
- - array_insert: check whether we are adding at the beginning of the
- array and take a fast path if so
- - array_insert: use same strategy as array_reference to find the place
- to insert, starting from the last-referenced element and moving
- forward or back from there; use ADD_AFTER if moving backward
- - array_insert: if replacing an existing element, just replace the
- value with new->value instead of the entire element
- - array_reference: short-circuit quickly if looking for an element
- before the first assigned index
- - array_reference: if we don't find the element, leave lastref pointing
- to the closest element under the assumption we will be assigning or
- looking for something close
- - array_reference: take advantage of ordered indexes to short-circuit
- when looking for element that is not set
-
- 10/7

-array.c
- - array_remove: short-circuit if asked to remove index after max
- index or before first index
-
- 10/10
- -----
-lib/malloc/malloc.c
- - internal_realloc: if we are requesting reallocation to the same size
- as the block's current size, short-circuit and return `mem' right
- after doing bounds check
- - internal_realloc: if we are reducing the size of an allocation, and
- the new size fits in the next lower bin, just keep the same block
- and adjust the size, so we can avoid some copies
-
-parse.y
- - set_line_mbstate: keep track of the allocated size of
- shell_input_line_property, only request reallocation if the size
- increases, but don't let it get too big
-
- 10/11

-jobs.c
- - wait_for_background_pids: make sure we wait for pid in
- last_procsub_child since it's not found in any job -- still needs
- more work to wait for multiple process substitutions
-
-subst.c
- - process_substitute: if make_child fails, make sure we call
- restore_pipeline to undo the previous save_pipeline()
-
- 10/15
- -----
-subst.c
- - process_substitute,command_substitute: leave subshell_level (reflected
- as $BASH_SUBSHELL) intact for any exit trap instead of decrementing
- it. Suggested by Martijn Dekker <martijn@inlv.org>
-
-builtins/evalstring.c
- - optimize_subshell_command: new function, framework for optimizing
- out forks for command that have already forked and are executing
- in a subshell. Not used yet
-
-expr.c
- - readtok: if we have a post-increment or post-decrement, and the
- previous token is not a string, check whether the previous token is
- a number that results from a pre-increment or pre-decrement, and
- make that an error. Report from Conrad Hoffmann <ch@bitfehler.net>
-

- -----
-aclocal.m4
- - BASH_JOB_CONTROL_MISSING: convert from AC_TRY_RUN to AC_TRY_COMPILE

- cross-compiling. Suggested by Felix Janda <felix.janda@posteo.de>
-
- 10/19

-variables.c
- - get_bashpid: BASHPID is no longer readonly; assignments to it are
- just ignored.

-
-examples/loadables/rm.c

-
-bashline.c
- - shell_expand_line: use expand_word to expand the readline line
- buffer, which allows us to pass flags with the word. If a numeric
- argument is supplied, do not perform quote removal (pass
- Q_HERE_DOCUMENT since here-doc quoting does the right thing) and
- do not perform command or process subsitution. From a suggestion
- by Dabrien 'Dabe' Murphy <dabe@dabe.com> based on an old bug-bash
- discussion
-
-subst.c
- - expand_word_internal: note that we have added a quoted IFS char to

- one if we are not going to be performing word splitting, but we
- will not perform word splitting if there's no expansion, so we need
- to take care of that case
- - expand_word_internal: when performing final word split, if there are
- no expansions but has_quoted_ifs is non-zero, call remove_quoted_ifs()
- to remove any quoted ifs characters we added while processing
- - remove_quoted_ifs: new function, removes CTLESC chars preceding

- - bind_assoc_var_internal: new convenience function to assign a
- key-value pair to an associative array. It gets the SHELL_VAR * AND
- a HASH_TABLE *, which may or may not correspond to the assoc_cell
- of the variable, and performs the insertion into the hash table.
- Callers take care of passing the right values.
- - bind_assoc_variable: call bind_assoc_var_internal to do the real
- work
- - assign_compound_array_list: change to assign associative array
- key-value pairs into a new hash table (NHASH), so we can still use
- the old value for expansion. We do this in place of clearing out
- the contents of the associative array before performing the expansion
- and assignments. After doing all the assignments into NHASH, we swap
- NHASH into the variable as its value and dispose of the old value.

- - hash_insert,hash_search: call hash_grow if necessary
+ - set_int_value,set_string_value: broke common code for setting int

- - shell_expand_word_list: check for and note whether or not -I is

- - shell_expand_word_list: if we have a compound assignment that is an

+ it to get_var_and_type; this generalizes the indexed array behavior
+ of expanding array subscripts once to associative arrays via an
+ eventual call to array_value_internal with a non-null KEY member
+ - get_var_and_type: now takes an array_eltstate_t * argument in place
+ of the arrayind_t argument; use it in calls to array_value so we
+ can only expand array subscripts once whether they are indexed or
+ associative arrays
+ - parameter_brace_expand_word: take an array_eltstate_t * argument in

- - process_substitute: try it without setting the stdin for a process
- substitution started from an interactive shell to /dev/null. We will
- have to see if this causes problems like those reported back in
- 9/2019 by Grisha Levit. From a report by Hyunho Cho <mug896@gmail.com>
+ - expand_word_internal: when expanding backquoted command substitution,
+ call string_extract with the SX_REQMATCH flag (closing backquote
+ required) only if the word flags don't contain W_COMPLETE,
+ indicating that we're doing this for completion, probably to
+ determine whether or not to append something to the word. Fixes bug
+ reported by Emanuele Torre <torreemanuele6@gmail.com>.

+execute_cmd.c
+ - execute_connection: treat a connector of '\n' the same as ';'
- 10/8
+print_cmd.c
+ - print_comsub: new function, sets flag noting we are printing a
+ command substitution and calls make_command_string
+ - make_command_string_internal: add '\n' to the ';' case; print command
+ list with newline connector appropriately
+
+parse.y
+ - parse_comsub: call print_comsub instead of make_command_string
+ - list1 production (part of compound_list): if a list is separated by
+ newlines, and the parser is parsing a command substitution, make
+ the connection command with a '\n' connector. Makes the text
+ output of parse_comsub closer to the original source text. From a
+ report from Martijn Dekker <martijn@inlv.org>

+ Reported by Emanuele Torre <torreemanuele6@gmail.com>.
+ - show_all_var_attributes: use `local -' when printing a variable named
+ `-' at the current non-zero variable context
+
+parse.y
+ - shell_getc: if we are at the end of an alias, returning a space,
+ make sure we mark the previous character as single-byte by modifying
+ shell_input_line_property so the space we return is properly
+ recognized. This would fail before if the last character of the
+ alias was a multi-byte character. Reported by

-trap.[ch]
- - set_trap_state: new function to allow other signal handlers to set
- the internal state that trap_handler would set to note that the
- shell received a trapped signal. Used by sigint_sighandler().
+configure.ac
+ - bumped version to bash-5.2-rc2
-sig.c
- - sigint_sighandler: call set_trap_state to set the pending trap state
- for SIGINT if trap_handler is not called. Needed because
- throw_to_top_level now checks whether a signal is pending before
- running the trap (change from 4/2020)

+jobs.c
+ - set_job_control: don't bother calling tcgetpgrp if shell_tty < 0,

-builtins/trap.def
- - trap_builtin: if the shell is interactive (interactive_shell != 0)
- but running something like PROMPT_COMMAND that sets
- parse_and_execute_level > 0 but interactive == 0, make sure to set

+parse.y
+ - parse_comsub: if the compatibility level is <= 51, set extglob while

+ Fixes report from Sam James <sam@gentoo.org> about gentoo scripts.
+ - reset_parser: set extended_glob from global_extglob if the parser
+ state includes PST_CMDSUBST
+ - xparse_dolparen: set global_extglob but don't modify extended_glob,
