Bizarre copy of IO in sassign at -e line 1.

Well, passing the existing string to filter_add causes that string
*itself* to be upgraded to SVt_PVIO, which is clearly not a good thing
if the caller can still reference it.  So we end up with $ bound to an
IO thingy.

And if the referent is a REGEXP, we get a crash during global destruc-
tion, or at least we did until the previous commit, which stopped
REGEXP->PVIO upgrades from being legal.  (Clearly they don’t work.)

The easiest way to fix this is to copy the string into a new scalar,
which then gets upgraded to PVIO.

util.c: Stop ck_index/fbm_compile from abusing readonliness

There is currently a convenient exception in sv_force_normal that
allows read-only scalars to be modified at compile time.

I want to get rid of it, since most code that relies on it is buggy.

So stop ck_index from relying on that when it calls fbm_compile by
stopping fbm_compile from triggering the error by forcing stringifica-
tion of variables that are already strings.

Stop ck_index from flattening other people’s SVs

By passing to fbm_compile the SV that is the second argument to
index(), ck_index causes it to be stringified.

That means, for example, that dualvars will lose their numeric
representation and regexps will be flattened (affecting regexp
code blocks).

This patch allows POK-only SVs to be compiled into BMs in place, as
it just adds magic and does not otherwise affect them.  Other SVs get
copied first.

Also, I avoided a compile-time uninitialized warning by not running
fbm_compile on undef SVs.

Father Chrysostomos [Fri, 21 Jun 2013 04:44:00 +0000 (21:44 -0700)]
Stop split from mangling constants

At compile time, if split occurs on the right-hand side of an assign-
ment to a list of scalars, if the limit argument is a constant con-
taining the number 0 then it is modified in place to hold one more
than the number of scalars.

This means ‘constants’ can change their values, if they happen to be
in the wrong place at the wrong time:

$ ./perl -Ilib -le 'use constant NULL => 0; ($a,$b,$c) = split //, $foo, NULL; print NULL'
4

I considered checking the reference count on the SV, but since XS code
could create its own const ops with weak references to the same cons-
tants elsewhere, the safest way to avoid modifying someone else’s SV
is to mark the split op in ck_split so we know the SV belongs to that
split op alone.

Also, to be on the safe side, turn off the read-only flag before modi-
fying the SV, instead of relying on the special case for compile time
in sv_force_normal.

11 years agoIf miniperl fails the simple Exporter test, print a message and bail out.
Nicholas Clark [Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:24:20 +0000 (16:24 +0200)]
If miniperl fails the simple Exporter test, print a message and bail out.

Previously the Makefile rule for miniperl would attempt to automatically run
minitest if the simple Exporter test failed. It did this by recursively
calling make in the same directory, which is not a totally safe thing to do
even at the best of times.

However commit cb251201d6951395, necessary to simplify other parts of the
toolchain bootstrapping, has made it easy to trigger an infinite loop of
Makefile recursion if miniperl is unable to run the simple Exporter test.

So, for now, defuse the trap by avoiding the recursive make call. A better
long term solution will be to set up and run minitest by something other than
a Makefile target, such as a shell script. As it's not immediately obvious how
to best integrate this with ./runtests, commit this simpler fix for now.

For *nix, only delete the ppport.h files that we created.

Given that we have the list of places to create ppport.h files easily
accessible, it's easy to delete only the files that we created, and avoid a
find recursing into all of ext/, dist/ and cpan/. This also means that if
anyone drops a module from CPAN into ext/ to build it as part of the core,
any ppport.h it has won't be wiped out by the core. This is one of the few
things that goes wrong, as the rest of the distclean target is very careful
to only delete files that it knows that the build process built.
