The latest Gnulib merge brought in free-posix, which causes 'free'
to preserve errno. This lets us simplify some Emacs code that
calls 'free'.
* admin/merge-gnulib (GNULIB_MODULES): Add free-posix.
This module is pulled in by canonicalize-lgpl anyway,
so we might as well rely on it.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (get_current_dir_name):
Sync better with src/sysdep.c.
* lib-src/etags.c (process_file_name, etags_mktmp):
* lib-src/update-game-score.c (unlock_file):
* src/fileio.c (file_accessible_directory_p):
* src/sysdep.c (get_current_dir_name_or_unreachable):
Simplify by assuming that 'free' preserves errno.
* src/alloc.c (malloc_unblock_input):
Preserve errno, so that xfree preserves errno.
* src/sysdep.c (get_current_dir_name_or_unreachable):
Simplify by using strdup instead of malloc+memcpy.
No need for realloc (and the old code leaked memory anyway on
failure); just use free+malloc.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (set_local_socket): Don't output the
warning if both -a and --quiet are specified (bug#16117).
Inspired by a patch from Scott Turner <srt19170@gmail.com>.
Code is supposed to use the filename module now.
* admin/merge-gnulib (GNULIB_MODULES): Replace dosname with filename.
* lib/dosname.h: Remove this forwarding stub.
* lib/gnulib.mk.in, m4/gnulib-comp.m4: Regenerate.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c, src/fileio.c:
Include filename.h instead of dosname.h.
* doc/emacs/custom.texi (Find Init): Update description of how Emacs
finds its init file directory and the interaction with
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME
(Early Init File): Correct XDG location of early-init.el
* etc/NEWS: Update description to make it clear the ~/.emacs.d is
preferred, even if the XDG location exists.
* lisp/startup.el: Prefer ~/.emacs.d even if the XDG location exists.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (open_config): Prefer home directory the XDG
location.
This reverts commit 6fe661342a.
The alternate editor may be Emacs, which is useful when you want to eval something in an existing Emacs (if it exists), or in a new Emacs if there's no server running.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (open_config): New arg XDG, to respect
XDG_CONFIG_HOME, consistently with Emacs proper. Caller changed.
Use XDG convention if available, falling back on the old names
if not.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (fail): If the user said --eval, don't
pass those arguments to the alternate editor as file names.
Suggested by a patch from Scott Turner (bug#11474).
PATH_MAX is standardized, MAXPATHLEN is not.
Also, the Gnulib pathmax module fixes some rare bugs with PATH_MAX.
So prefer PATH_MAX to MAXPATHLEN unless we know the latter is
also correct (for some platform-specific code).
* admin/merge-gnulib (GNULIB_MODULES): Add pathmax.
This module was already present, as a dependency of canonicalize-lgpl,
but now Emacs is using it directly. Sort.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c: Include stdint.h, pathmax.h.
(get_current_dir_name): Sync to current src/sysdep.c.
* lib/gnulib.mk.in, m4/gnulib-comp.m4: Regenerate.
* src/sysdep.c: Include pathmax.h.
(get_current_dir_name_or_unreachable):
Use PATH_MAX instead of MAXPATHLEN.
* lib-src/Makefile.in (etags_cflags): Remove.
All uses replaced by a simple ‘-o $@’.
(ebrowse${EXEEXT}, emacsclient${EXEEXT}, emacsclientw${EXEEXT}):
Omit -DVERSION= option.
* lib-src/ebrowse.c (VERSION):
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (VERSION):
* lib-src/etags.c (EMACS_NAME, VERSION): Remove.
All uses replaced by PACKAGE_NAME and PACKAGE_VERSION.
* lib-src/ebrowse.c (version):
* lib-src/etags.c (print_version):
Use fputs to output the version info, since that’s fputs_unlocked.
* lib-src/etags.c (PROGRAM_NAME): New macro.
(print_version): Use it.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (set_local_socket):
Use faccessat with AT_EACCESS instead of using euidaccess.
* admin/merge-gnulib, lib/gnulib.mk.in, m4/gnulib-comp.m4:
Revert previous change.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (set_local_socket):
If there appears to be an XDG runtime directory for the user
but XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is unset, suggest setting it while warning
about potential security issues (Bug#35300).
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (process_grouping): New function.
(act_on_signals, main): Use it.
(main): Omit "Waiting for Emacs..." and later "\n" messages
if in background, since that messes up the screen.
Problem reported by Kaushal Modi in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2018-12/msg00083.html
The tcdrain call replaced an fdatasync call which had no
effect on the tty, so removing it entirely shouldn’t cause
problems. The fdatasync call replaced an fsync call which
also had no effect on the tty, and the fsync call seems to be
badly-merged revenant of emacsclient’s old (circa 2004) way of
communicating to and from Emacs via FILE * streams, where
fsync was apparently needed when talking to sockets.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c [!DOS_NT]: Don’t include termios.h.
(flush_stdout): Remove. All callers removed.
(main): Do not drain the tty after "Waiting for Emacs..."
message. There should be no need to drain, and draining it
might send us a SIGTTOU. Do not fflush stdout just before
exiting, as exiting does that for us.
This ports to POSIXish platforms like macOS that lack SOCK_CLOEXEC.
Fix suggested by Eli Zaretskii in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2018-12/msg00055.html
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (set_local_socket):
Don’t use SOCK_CLOEXEC; that’s cloexec_socket’s job.
Recent changes in sysdep.c and emacsclient unnecessarily
removed useful code from DOS_NT builds. This changeset
reinstates that code.
* nt/inc/ms-w32.h (tcdrain): Redirect to _commit.
(fdatasync): No need to redirect anymore.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (flush_stdout): Don't avoid calling
tcdrain on DOS_NT platforms.
* src/sysdep.c (reset_sys_modes): Don't ifdef away the call to
tcdrain on DOS_NT platforms.
fdatasync is for storage devices, not ttys.
* admin/merge-gnulib (GNULIB_MODULES): Remove fdatasync.
* lib/fdatasync.c, m4/fdatasync.m4: Remove.
* lib-src/Makefile.in (LIB_FDATASYNC):
* src/Makefile.in (LIB_FDATASYNC):
Remove. All uses removed.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c [!DOS_NT]:
Include <termios.h>, for tcdrain.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (flush_stdout):
* src/sysdep.c (reset_sys_modes): On ttys, use tcdrain instead
of fdatasync (except don’t use either function if DOS_NT).
* lib/gnulib.mk.in, m4/gnulib-comp.m4: Regenerate.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (socket_status): New arg UID.
All uses changed.
(set_local_socket): Don’t create the unbound socket unless the
initial sanity checks on the socket file succeed; this
simplifies cleaning it up. Check socket ownership again
after connecting, to fix a race (Bug#33366).
* lib-src/emacsclient.c: Disable -Wformat-truncation=2,
to avoid false alarms about the new snprintf calls.
(local_sockname): New function.
(set_local_socket): Use it. Prefer XDG_RUNTIME_DIR (if set)
for location of socket directory. Avoid unnecessary memory
allocation by using snprintf to destination.
* lisp/server.el (server-socket-dir): Prefer XDG_RUNTIME_DIR if set.
* configure.ac (HAVE_INET_SOCKETS): Remove.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c: Simplify by assuming HAVE_SOCKETS and
HAVE_INET_SOCKETS, which are always true nowadays, except perhaps
for MS-DOS and if so this program shouldn’t be built there anyway.
Don’t bother including sys/types.h, as it’s not needed on modern
systems (and syswait.h does it for us anyway).
(main): Simplify by assuming SIGSTOP (which is always defined
if SIGCONT is), and by assuming HAVE_SOCKETS && HAVE_INET_SOCKETS.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (SOCKETS_IN_FILE_SYSTEM): Rename from
NO_SOCKETS_IN_FILE_SYSTEM, with inverted sense. All uses changed.
All uses were of the form ‘#ifndef NO_SOCKETS_IN_FILE_SYSTEM’, and
it’s easier to read ‘#ifdef SOCKETS_IN_FILE_SYSTEM’.
Fix some longstanding race conditions due to emacsclient’s use of
‘signal’ instead of ‘sigaction’ and its use of nested signal
handlers. These races could cause premature exit or incorrect
commands sent to Emacs.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (signal) [!WINDOWSNT]: Do not undef.
(emacs_socket): Remove this static variable. It is now a parameter.
(send_to_emacs): Do not exit merely because ‘send’ was interrupted.
Instead, act on the signal if possible, and then retry the ‘send’.
(pass_signal_to_emacs): Remove; now done by act_on_signals.
(reinstall_handler_if_needed, handle_sigttou, handle_sigwinch)
(install_handler): New functions.
(got_sigcont, got_sigtstp, got_sigttou, got_sigwinch):
New globals, used for more-portable signal handling.
(handle_sigcont, handle_sigtstp): Just set the static var; other
actions are now done later by act_on_signals.
(install_handler): New function that arranges for signals to
never be reset to default, on modern POSIX platforms.
This fixes some races.
(act_on_signals): New function. When acting on SIGCONT,
don’t bother calling getpgrp if tcgetpgrp fails.
(start_daemon_and_retry_set_socket): Return the socket
rather than setting a global variable. All uses changed.
(flush_stdout): New function that acts on signals received while
flushing.
(main): Use it. emacs_socket is now a local var.
Act on signals received during recv.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (start_daemon_and_retry_set_socket):
If the execvp of Emacs fails exit instead of having the child
run on and do the work of the parent. Coalesce duplicate code.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (set_tcp_socket, set_local_socket):
Close socket (instead of leaking it) when ‘connect’ fails.
(socket_status): Return errno if stat fails and -1 if we don’t own.
(set_local_socket): Simplify based on socket_status change.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (get_server_config, set_tcp_socket)
(set_local_socket): Initialize any platform-specific extensions
of struct to zero, just in case.
(set_tcp_socket, set_local_socket): Don’t assume struct
layout details that POSIX does not specify.
Use union to sidestep some problems with strict aliasing.
Remove unnecessary casts.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c: Include <intprops.h>.
(EXTRA_SPACE): Remove; code no longer guesses this is enough.
(open_config): New function.
(get_server_config): Use it.
(set_local_socket): Compute upper bound of buffer size
instead of guessing via EXTRA_SPACE.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (quote_argument):
Mention *DATA in comment so it’s clear DATA must be non-null.
(quote_argument, unquote_argument): Simplify.
(unquote_argument): Don’t crash if the string ends in "&".
* lib-src/emacsclient.c: Include <dosname.h>.
(file_name_absolute_p): Remove, as a code duplicate.
All uses replaced by IS_ABSOLUTE_FILE_NAME.
(set_local_socket): Don’t treat \ as a file name separator
on GNU and POSIX hosts.
* lib-src/emacsclient.c (nowait, quiet, suppress_output, eval, tty)
(decode_options, file_name_absolute_p, get_server_config)
(strprefix, find_tty, set_socket, main):
Use bool for boolean.
(create_frame): New static var, replacing the old current_frame
and with inverted sense, as this is clearer.
