------------- Version 5.002 ------------- The main enhancement to the Perl core was the addition of prototypes. Many of the modules that come with Perl have been extensively upgraded. Other than that, nearly all the changes for 5.002 were bug fixes of one variety or another, so here's the bug list, along with the "resolution" for each of them. If you wish to correspond about any of them, please include the bug number (if any). Changes specific to the Configure and build process are described at the bottom. Added APPLLIB_EXP for embedded perl library support. Files patched: perl.c Couldn't define autoloaded routine by assignment to typeglob. Files patched: pp_hot.c sv.c NETaa13525: Tiny patch to fix installman -n From: Larry Wall Files patched: installman NETaa13525: de-documented \v Files patched: pod/perlop.pod pod/perlre.pod NETaa13525: doc changes Files patched: pod/perlop.pod pod/perltrap.pod NETaa13525: perlxs update from Dean Roehrich Files patched: pod/perlxs.pod NETaa13525: rename powerunix to powerux Files patched: MANIFEST hints/powerux.sh NETaa13540: VMS uses CLK_TCK for HZ Files patched: pp_sys.c NETaa13721: pad_findlex core dumps on bad CvOUTSIDE() From: Carl Witty Files patched: op.c sv.c toke.c Each CV has a reference to the CV containing it lexically. Unfortunately, it didn't reference-count this reference, so when the outer CV was freed, we ended up with a pointer to memory that got reused later as some other kind of SV. NETaa13721: warning suppression Files patched: toke.c (same) NETaa13722: walk.c had inconsistent static declarations From: Tim Bunce Files patched: x2p/walk.c Consolidated the various declarations and made them consistent with the actual definitions. NETaa13724: -MPackage=args patch From: Tim Bunce Files patched: perl.c pod/perlrun.pod Added in the -MPackage=args patch too. NETaa13729: order-of-evaluation dependency in scope.c on leaving REGCONTEXT From: "Jason Shirk" Files patched: scope.c Did I32 delta = SSPOPINT; savestack_ix -= delta; /* regexp must have croaked */ instead. NETaa13731: couldn't assign external lexical array to itself From: oneill@cs.sfu.ca Files patched: op.c The pad_findmy routine was only checking previous statements for previous mention of external lexicals, so the fact that the current statement already mentioned @list was not noted. It therefore allocated another reference to the outside lexical, and this didn't compare equal when the assigment parsing code was trying to determine whether there was a common variable on either side of the equals. Since it didn't see the same variable, it thought it could avoid making copies of the values on the stack during list assignment. Unfortunately, before using those values, the list assignment has to zero out the target array, which destroys the values. The fix was to make pad_findmy search the current statement as well. This was actually a holdover from some old code that was trying to delay introduction of "my" variables until the next statement. This is now done with a different mechanism, so the fix should not adversely affect that. NETaa13733: s/// doesn't free old string when using copy mode From: Larry Wall Files patched: pp_ctl.c pp_hot.c When I removed the use of sv_replace(), I simply forgot to free the old char*. NETaa13736: closures leaked memory From: Carl Witty Files patched: op.c pp.c This is a specific example of a more general bug, fixed as NETaa13760, having to do with reference counts on comppads. NETaa13739: XSUB interface caches gimme in case XSUB clobbers it From: Dean Roehrich Files patched: pp_hot.c Applied suggest patch. Also deleted second gimme declaration as redundant. NETaa13760: comppad reference counts were inconsistent From: Larry Wall Files patched: op.c perl.c pp_ctl.c toke.c All official references to comppads are supposed to be through compcv now, but the transformation was not complete, resulting in memory leakage. NETaa13761: sv_2pv() wrongly preferred IV to NV when SV was readonly From: "Jack R. Lawler" Files patched: sv.c Okay, I understand how this one happened. This is a case where a beneficial fix uncovered a bug elsewhere. I changed the constant folder to prefer integer results over double if the numbers are the same. In this case, they aren't, but it leaves the integer value there anyway because the storage is already allocated for it, and it *might* be used in an integer context. And since it's producing a constant, it sets READONLY. Unfortunately, sv_2pv() bogusly preferred the integer value to the double when READONLY was set. This never showed up if you just said print 1.4142135623731; because in that case, there was already a string value. NETaa13772: shmwrite core dumps consistently From: Gabe Schaffer Files patched: opcode.h opcode.pl The shmwrite operator is a list operator but neglected to push a stack mark beforehand, because an 'm' was missing from opcode.pl. NETaa13773: $. was misdocumented as read-only. From: Inaba Hiroto Files patched: pod/perlvar.pod <1.array-element-read-only> % perl -le '$,=", "; $#w=5; for (@w) { $_=1; } print @w' Modification of a read-only value attempted at -e line 1. % perl4 -le '$,=", "; $#w=5; for (@w) { $_=1; } print @w' 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 This one may stay the way it is for performance reasons. <2.begin-local-RS> % cat abc a b c % perl -e 'BEGIN { local $/ = ""; } print "$.:$_" while <>;' abc 1:a b c % perl -e '{ local $/ = ""; } print "$.:$_" while <>;' abc 1:a 2:b 3:c $/ wasn't initialized early enough, so local set it back to permanently undefined on exit from the block. <3.grep-x0-bug> % perl -le 'print grep(/^-/ ?

($x=$_) x 0 : 1, "a", "-b", "c");' ac An extra mark was left on the stack if (('x') x $repeat) was used in a scalar context. <4.input-lineno-assign> # perl -w does not complain about assignment to $. (Is this just a feature?) # perlvar.pod says "This variable should be considered read-only." % cat abc a b c % perl -wnle '$. = 10 if $. == 2; print "$.:$_"' abc 1:a 10:b 11:c Fixed doc. <5.local-soft-ref.bug> % perl -e 'local ${"a"}=1;' zsh: 529 segmentation fault perl -e 'local ${"a"}=1;' Now says Can't localize a reference at -e line 1. <6.package-readline> % perl -e 'package foo; sub foo { 1; } package main; $_ = foo::foo(); print' 1 % perl -e ' package readline; sub foo { 1; } package main; $_ = readline::foo(); print' Undefined subroutine &main::foo called at -e line 1. % perl -e ' package readline; sub foo { 1; } package main; $_ = &readline::foo(); print' 1 Now treats foo::bar correctly even if foo is a keyword. <7.page-head-set-to-null-string> % cat page-head #From: russell@ccu1.auckland.ac.nz (Russell Fulton) #Newsgroups: comp.lang.perl #Subject: This script causes Perl 5.00 to sementation fault #Date: 15 Nov 1994 00:11:37 GMT #Message-ID: <3a8ubp$jrj@net.auckland.ac.nz> select((select(STDOUT), $^='')[0]); #this is the critical line $a = 'a'; write ; exit; format STDOUT = @<<<<<< $a . % perl page-head zsh: 1799 segmentation fault perl /tmp/page-head Now says Undefined top format "main::" called at ./try line 11. <8.sub-as-index> # parser bug? % perl -le 'sub foo {0}; $x[0]=0;$x[foo]<=0' Unterminated <> operator at -e line 1. % perl -le 'sub foo {0}; $x[0]=0;$x[foo()]<=0' A right square bracket now forces expectation of an operator. <9.unary-minus-to-regexp-var> % cat minus-reg #From: Michael Cook #Newsgroups: comp.lang.perl #Subject: bug: print -$1 #Date: 01 Feb 1995 15:31:25 GMT #Message-ID: $_ = "123"; /\d+/; print $&, "\n"; print -$&, "\n"; print 0-$&, "\n"; % perl minus-reg 123 123 -123 Apparently already fixed in my copy. <10.vec-segv> % cat vec-bug ## Offset values are changed for my machine. #From: augustin@gdstech.grumman.com (Conrad Augustin) #Subject: perl5 vec() bug? #Message-ID: <1994Nov22.193728.25762@gdstech.grumman.com> #Date: Tue, 22 Nov 1994 19:37:28 GMT #The following two statements each produce a segmentation fault in perl5: #vec($a, 21406, 32) = 1; # seg fault vec($a, 42813, 16) = 1; # seg fault #When the offset values are one less, all's well: #vec($a, 21405, 32) = 1; # ok #vec($a, 42812, 16) = 1; # ok #Interestingly, this is ok for all high values of N: #$N=1000000; vec($a, $N, 8) = 1; % perl vec-bug zsh: 1806 segmentation fault perl vec-bug Can't reproduce this one. NETaa13773: $/ not correctly localized in BEGIN Files patched: perl.c (same) NETaa13773: foo::bar was misparsed if foo was a reserved word Files patched: toke.c toke.c (same) NETaa13773: right square bracket didn't force expectation of operator Files patched: toke.c (same) NETaa13773: scalar ((x) x $repeat) left stack mark Files patched: op.c (same) NETaa13778: -w coredumps on <$> From: Hans Mulder Files patched: pp_hot.c toke.c Now produces suggested error message. Also installed guard in warning code that coredumped. NETaa13779: foreach didn't use savestack mechanism From: Hans Mulder Files patched: cop.h pp_ctl.c The foreach mechanism saved the old scalar value on the context stack rather than the savestack. It could consequently get out of sync if unexpectedly unwound. NETaa13785: GIMME sometimes used wrong context frame From: Greg Earle Files patched: embed.h global.sym op.h pp_ctl.c proto.h The expression inside the return was taking its context from the immediately surrounding block rather than the innermost surrounding subroutine call. NETaa13797: could modify sv_undef through auto-vivification From: Ilya Zakharevich Files patched: pp.c Inserted the missing check for readonly values on auto-vivification. NETaa13798: if (...) {print} treats print as quoted From: Larry Wall Files patched: toke.c The trailing paren of the condition was setting expectations to XOPERATOR rather than XBLOCK, so it was being treated like ${print}. NETaa13926: commonality was not detected in assignments using COND_EXPR From: Mark Hanson Files patched: opcode.h opcode.pl The assignment compiler didn't check the 2nd and 3rd args of a ?: for commonality. It still doesn't, but I made ?: into a "dangerous" operator so it is forced to treat it as common. NETaa13957: was marking the PUSHMARK as modifiable rather than the arg From: David Couture Files patched: op.c sv.c It was marking the PUSHMARK as modifiable rather than the arg. NETaa13962: documentation of behavior of scalar <*> was unclear From: Tom Christiansen Files patched: pod/perlop.pod Added the following to perlop: A glob only evaluates its (embedded) argument when it is starting a new list. All values must be read before it will start over. In a list context this isn't important, because you automatically get them all anyway. In a scalar context, however, the operator returns the next value each time it is called, or a FALSE value if you've just run out. Again, FALSE is returned only once. So if you're expecting a single value from a glob, it is much better to say ($file) = ; than $file = ; because the latter will alternate between returning a filename and returning FALSE. NETaa13986: split ignored /m pattern modifier From: Winfried Koenig Files patched: pp.c Fixed to work like m// and s///. NETaa13992: regexp comments not seen after + in non-extended regexp From: Mark Knutsen Files patched: regcomp.c The code to skip regexp comments was guarded by a conditional that only let it work when /x was in effect. NETaa14014: use subs should not count as definition, only as declaration From: Keith Thompson Files patched: sv.c On *foo = \&bar, doesn't set GVf_IMPORTED if foo and bar are in same package. NETaa14021: sv_inc and sv_dec "upgraded" magical SV to non-magical From: Paul A Sand Also: Andreas Koenig Files patched: sv.c The sv_inc() and sv_dec() routines "upgraded" null magical SVs to non-magical. NETaa14086: require should check tainting From: Karl Simon Berg Files patched: pp_ctl.c Since we shouldn't allow tainted requires anyway, it now says: Insecure dependency in require while running with -T switch at tst.pl line 1. NETaa14104: negation fails on magical variables like $1 From: tim Files patched: pp.c Negation was failing on magical values like $1. It was testing the wrong bits and also failed to provide a final "else" if none of the bits matched. NETaa14107: deep sort return leaked contexts From: Quentin Fennessy Files patched: pp_ctl.c Needed to call dounwind() appropriately. NETaa14129: attempt to localize via a reference core dumps From: Michele Sardo Files patched: op.c pod/perldiag.pod Now produces an error "Can't localize a reference", with explanation in perldiag. NETaa14138: substr() and s/// can cause core dump From: Andrew Vignaux Files patched: pp_hot.c Forgot to call SvOOK_off() on the SV before freeing its string. NETaa14145: ${@INC}[0] dumped core in debugger From: Hans Mulder Files patched: sv.c Now croaks "Bizarre copy of ARRAY in block exit", which is better than a core dump. The fact that ${@INC}[0] means $INC[0] outside the debugger is a different bug. NETaa14147: bitwise assignment ops wipe out byte of target string From: Jim Richardson Files patched: doop.c The code was assuming that the target was not either of the two operands, which is false for an assignment operator. NETaa14153: lexing of lexicals in patterns fooled by character class From: Dave Bianchi Files patched: toke.c It never called the dwimmer, which is how it fooled it. NETaa14154: allowed autoloaded methods by recognizing sub method; declaration From: Larry Wall Files patched: gv.c Made sub method declaration sufficient for autoloader to stop searching on. NETaa14156: shouldn't optimize block scope on tainting From: Pete Peterson Files patched: op.c toke.c I totally disabled the block scope optimization when running tainted. NETaa14157: -T and -B only allowed 1/30 "odd" characters--changed to 1/3 From: Tor Lillqvist Files patched: pp_sys.c Applied suggested patch. NETaa14160: deref of null symbol should produce null list From: Jared Rhine Files patched: pp_hot.c It didn't check for list context before returning undef. NETaa14162: POSIX::gensym now returns a symbol reference From: Josh N. Pritikin Also: Tim Bunce Files patched: ext/POSIX/POSIX.pm Applied suggested patch. NETaa14164: POSIX autoloader now distinguishes non-constant "constants" From: Tim Bunce Files patched: ext/POSIX/POSIX.pm ext/POSIX/POSIX.xs The .xs file now distinguishes non-constant "constants" by setting EAGAIN. This will also let us use #ifdef within the .xs file to de-constantify any other macros that happen not to be constants even if they don't use an argument. NETaa14166: missing semicolon after "my" induces core dump From: Thomas Kofler Files patched: toke.c The parser was left thinking it was still processing a "my", and flubbed. I made it wipe out the "in_my" variable on a syntax error. NETaa14166: missing semicolon after "my" induces core dump" Files patched: toke.c (same) NETaa14206: can now use English and strict at the same time From: Andrew Wilcox Files patched: sv.c It now counts imported symbols as okay under "use strict". NETaa14206: can now use English and strict at the same time Files patched: gv.c pod/perldiag.pod (same) NETaa14265: elseif now produces severe warning From: Yutao Feng Files patched: pod/perldiag.pod toke.c Now complains explicitly about "elseif". NETaa14279: list assignment propagated taintedness to independent scalars From: Tim Freeman Files patched: pp_hot.c List assignment needed to be modified so that tainting didn't propagate between independent scalar values. NETaa14312: undef in @EXPORTS core dumps From: William Setzer Files patched: lib/Exporter.pm Now says: Unable to create sub named "t::" at lib/Exporter.pm line 159. Illegal null symbol in @t::EXPORT at -e line 1 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1. NETaa14312: undef in @EXPORTS core dumps Files patched: pod/perldiag.pod sv.c (same) NETaa14321: literal @array check shouldn't happen inside embedded expressions From: Mark H. Nodine Files patched: toke.c The general solution to this is to disable the literal @array check within any embedded expression. For instance, this also failed bogusly: print "$foo{@foo}"; The reason fixing this also fixes the s///e problem is that the lexer effectively puts the RHS into a do {} block, making the expression embedded within curlies, as far as the error message is concerned. NETaa14322: now localizes $! during POSIX::AUTOLOAD From: Larry Wall Files patched: ext/POSIX/POSIX.pm Added local $! = 0. NETaa14324: defined() causes spurious sub existence From: "Andreas Koenig" Files patched: op.c pp.c It called pp_rv2cv which wrongly assumed it could add any sub it referenced. NETaa14336: use Module () forces import of nothing From: Tim Bunce Files patched: op.c use Module () now refrains from calling import at all. NETaa14353: added special HE allocator From: Larry Wall Files patched: global.sym NETaa14353: added special HE allocator Files patched: hv.c perl.h NETaa14353: array extension now converts old memory to SV storage. Files patched: av.c av.h sv.c NETaa14353: hashes now convert old storage into SV arenas. Files patched: global.sym NETaa14353: hashes now convert old storage into SV arenas. Files patched: hv.c perl.h NETaa14353: upgraded SV arena allocation Files patched: proto.h NETaa14353: upgraded SV arena allocation Files patched: perl.c sv.c NETaa14422: added rudimentary prototypes From: Gisle Aas Files patched: Makefile.SH op.c op.c perly.c perly.c.diff perly.h perly.y proto.h sv.c toke.c Message-Id: <9509290018.AA21548@scalpel.netlabs.com> To: doughera@lafcol.lafayette.edu (Andy Dougherty) Cc: perl5-porters@africa.nicoh.com Subject: Re: Jumbo Configure patch vs. 1m. Date: Thu, 28 Sep 95 17:18:54 -0700 From: lwall@scalpel.netlabs.com (Larry Wall) : No. Larry's currently got the patch pumpkin for all such core perl topics. I dunno whether you should let me have the patch pumpkin or not. To fix a Sev 2 I just hacked in rudimentary prototypes. :-) We can now define true unary subroutines, as well as argumentless subroutines: sub baz () { 12; } # Must not have argument sub bar ($) { $_[0] * 7 } # Must have exactly one argument sub foo ($@) { print "@_\n" } # Must have at least one argument foo bar baz / 2 || "oops", "is the answer"; This prints "42 is the answer" on my machine. That is, it's the same as foo( bar( baz() / 2) || "oops", "is the answer"); Attempting to compile foo; results in Too few arguments for main::foo at ./try line 8, near "foo;" Compiling bar 1,2,3; results in Too many arguments for main::bar at ./try line 8, near "foo;" But @array = ('a','b','c'); foo @array, @array; prints "3 a b c" because the $ puts the first arg of foo into scalar context. The main win at this point is that we can say sub AAA () { 1; } sub BBB () { 2; } and the user can say AAA + BBB and get 3. I'm not quite sure how this interacts with autoloading though. I fear POSIX.pm will need to say sub E2BIG (); sub EACCES (); sub EAGAIN (); sub EBADF (); sub EBUSY (); ... sub _SC_STREAM_MAX (); sub _SC_TZNAME_MAX (); sub _SC_VERSION (); unless we can figure out how to efficiently declare a default prototype at import time. Meaning, not using eval. Currently *foo = \&bar; (the ordinary import mechanism) implicitly stubs &bar with no prototype if &bar is not yet declared. It's almost like you want an AUTOPROTO to go with your AUTOLOAD. Another thing to rub one's 5 o'clock shadow over is that there's no way to apply a prototype to a method call at compile time. And no, I don't want to have the sub howabout ($formal, @arguments) { ... } argument right now. Larry NETaa14422: couldn't take reference of a prototyped function Files patched: op.c (same) NETaa14423: use didn't allow expressions involving the scratch pad From: Graham Barr Files patched: op.c perly.c perly.c.diff perly.y proto.h vms/perly_c.vms Applied suggested patch. NETaa14444: lexical scalar didn't autovivify From: Gurusamy Sarathy Files patched: op.c pp_hot.c It didn't have code in pp_padsv to do the right thing. NETaa14448: caller could dump core when used within an eval or require From: Danny R. Faught Files patched: pp_ctl.c caller() was incorrectly assuming the context stack contained a subroutine context when it in fact contained an eval context. NETaa14451: improved error message on bad pipe filehandle From: Danny R. Faught Files patched: pp_sys.c Now says the slightly more informative Can't use an undefined value as filehandle reference at ./try line 3. NETaa14462: pp_dbstate had a scope leakage on recursion suppression From: Tim Bunce Files patched: pp_ctl.c Swapped the code in question around. NETaa14482: sv_unref freed ref prematurely at times From: Gurusamy Sarathy Files patched: sv.c Made sv_unref() mortalize rather than free the old reference. NETaa14484: appending string to array produced bizarre results From: Greg Ward Also: Malcolm Beattie Files patched: pp_hot.c Will now say, "Can't coerce ARRAY to string". NETaa14525: assignment to globs didn't reset them correctly From: Gurusamy Sarathy Files patched: sv.c Applied parts of patch not overridden by subsequent patch. NETaa14529: a partially matching subpattern could spoof infinity detector From: Wayne Berke Files patched: regexec.c A partial match on a subpattern could fool the infinite regress detector into thinking progress had been made. The previous workaround prevented another bug (NETaa14529) from being fixed, so I've backed it out. I'll need to think more about how to detect failure to progress. I'm still hopeful it's not equivalent to the halting problem. NETaa14535: patches from Gurusamy Sarathy From: Gurusamy Sarathy Files patched: op.c pp.c pp_hot.c regexec.c sv.c toke.c Applied most recent suggested patches. NETaa14537: select() can return too soon From: Matt Kimball Also: Andreas Gustafsson Files patched: pp_sys.c NETaa14538: method calls were treated like do {} under loop modifiers From: Ilya Zakharevich Files patched: perly.c perly.y Needed to take the OPf_SPECIAL flag off of entersubs from method reductions. (It was probably a cut-and-paste error from long ago.) NETaa14540: foreach (@array) no longer does extra stack copy From: darrinm@lmc.com Files patched: Todo op.c pp_ctl.c pp_hot.c Fixed by doing the foreach(@array) optimization, so it iterates directly through the array, and can detect the implicit shift from referencing <>. NETaa14541: new version of perlbug From: Kenneth Albanowski Files patched: README pod/perl.pod utils/perlbug.PL Brought it up to version 1.09. NETaa14541: perlbug 1.11 Files patched: utils/perlbug.PL (same) NETaa14548: magic sets didn't check private OK bits From: W. Bradley Rubenstein Files patched: mg.c The magic code was getting mixed up between private and public POK bits. NETaa14550: made ~ magic magical From: Tim Bunce Files patched: sv.c Applied suggested patch. NETaa14551: humongous header causes infinite loop in format From: Grace Lee Files patched: pp_sys.c Needed to check for page exhaustion after doing top-of-form. NETaa14558: attempt to call undefined top format core dumped From: Hallvard B Furuseth Files patched: pod/perldiag.pod pp_sys.c Now issues an error on attempts to call a non-existent top format. NETaa14561: Gurusamy Sarathy's G_KEEPERR patch From: Andreas Koenig Also: Gurusamy Sarathy Also: Tim Bunce Files patched: cop.h interp.sym perl.c perl.h pp_ctl.c pp_sys.c sv.c toke.c Applied latest patch. NETaa14581: shouldn't execute BEGIN when there are compilation errors From: Rickard Westman Files patched: op.c Perl should not try to execute BEGIN and END blocks if there's been a compilation error. NETaa14582: got SEGV sorting sparse array From: Rick Pluta Files patched: pp_ctl.c Now weeds out undefined values much like Perl 4 did. Now sorts undefined values to the front. NETaa14582: sort was letting unsortable values through to comparison routine Files patched: pp_ctl.c (same) NETaa14585: globs in pad space weren't properly cleaned up From: Gurusamy Sarathy Files patched: op.c pp.c pp_hot.c sv.c Applied suggested patch. NETaa14614: now does dbmopen with perl_eval_sv() From: The Man Files patched: perl.c pp_sys.c proto.h dbmopen now invokes perl_eval_sv(), which should handle error conditions better. NETaa14618: exists doesn't work in GDBM_File From: Andrew Wilcox Files patched: ext/GDBM_File/GDBM_File.xs Applied suggested patch. NETaa14619: tied() From: Larry Wall Also: Paul Marquess Files patched: embed.h global.sym keywords.h keywords.pl opcode.h opcode.pl pp_sys.c toke.c Applied suggested patch. NETaa14636: Jumbo Dynaloader patch From: Tim Bunce Files patched: ext/DynaLoader/DynaLoader.pm ext/DynaLoader/dl_dld.xs ext/DynaLoader/dl_dlopen.xs ext/DynaLoader/dl_hpux.xs ext/DynaLoader/dl_next.xs ext/DynaLoader/dl_vms.xs ext/DynaLoader/dlutils.c Applied suggested patches. NETaa14637: checkcomma routine was stupid about bareword sub calls From: Tim Bunce Files patched: toke.c The checkcomma routine was stupid about bareword sub calls. NETaa14639: (?i) didn't reset on runtime patterns From: Mark A. Scheel Files patched: op.h pp_ctl.c toke.c It didn't distinguish between permanent flags outside the pattern and temporary flags within the pattern. NETaa14649: selecting anonymous globs dumps core From: Chip Salzenberg Files patched: cop.h doio.c embed.h global.sym perl.c pp_sys.c proto.h Applied suggested patch, but reversed the increment and decrement to avoid decrementing and freeing what we're going to increment. NETaa14655: $? returned negative value on AIX From: Kim Frutiger Also: Stephen D. Lee Files patched: pp_sys.c Applied suggested patch. NETaa14668: {2,} could match once From: Hugo van der Sanden Files patched: regexec.c When an internal pattern failed a conjecture, it didn't back off on the number of times it thought it had matched. NETaa14673: open $undefined dumped core From: Samuli K{rkk{inen Files patched: pp_sys.c pp_open() didn't check its argument for globness. NETaa14683: stringifies were running pad out of space From: Robin Barker Files patched: op.h toke.c Increased PADOFFSET to a U32, and made lexer not put double-quoted strings inside OP_STRINGIFY unless they really needed it. NETaa14689: shouldn't have . in @INC when tainting From: William R. Somsky Files patched: perl.c Now does not put . into @INC when tainting. It may still be added with a use lib "."; or, to put it at the end, BEGIN { push(@INC, ".") } but this is not recommended unless a chdir to a known location has been done first. NETaa14690: values inside tainted SVs were ignored From: "James M. Stern" Files patched: pp.c pp_ctl.c It was assuming that a tainted value was a string. NETaa14692: format name required qualification under use strict From: Tom Christiansen Files patched: gv.c Now treats format names the same as subroutine names. NETaa14695: added simple regexp caching From: John Rowe Files patched: pp_ctl.c Applied suggested patch. NETaa14697: regexp comments were sometimes wrongly treated as literal text From: Tom Christiansen Files patched: regcomp.c The literal-character grabber didn't know about extended comments. N.B. '#' is treated as a comment character whenever the /x option is used now, so you can't include '#' as a simple literal in /x regexps. (By the way, Tom, the boxed form of quoting in the previous enclosure is exceeding antisocial when you want to extract the code from it.) NETaa14704: closure got wrong outer scope if outer sub was predeclared From: Marc Paquette Files patched: op.c The outer scope of the anonymous sub was set to the stub rather than to the actual subroutine. I kludged it by making the outer scope of the stub be the actual subroutine, if anything is depending on the stub. NETaa14705: $foo .= $foo did free memory read From: Gerd Knops Files patched: sv.c Now modifies address to copy if it was reallocated. NETaa14709: Chip's FileHandle stuff From: Larry Wall Also: Chip Salzenberg Files patched: MANIFEST ext/FileHandle/FileHandle.pm ext/FileHandle/FileHandle.xs ext/FileHandle/Makefile.PL ext/POSIX/POSIX.pm ext/POSIX/POSIX.pod ext/POSIX/POSIX.xs lib/FileCache.pm lib/Symbol.pm t/lib/filehand.t t/lib/posix.t Applied suggested patches. NETaa14711: added (&) and (*) prototypes for blocks and symbols From: Kenneth Albanowski Files patched: Makefile.SH op.c perly.c perly.h perly.y toke.c & now means that it must have an anonymous sub as that argument. If it's the first argument, the sub may be specified as a block in the indirect object slot, much like grep or sort, which have prototypes of (&@). Also added * so you can do things like sub myopen (*;$); myopen(FOO, $filename); NETaa14713: setuid FROM root now defaults to not do tainting From: Tony Camas Files patched: mg.c perl.c pp_hot.c Applied suggested patch. NETaa14714: duplicate magics could be added to an SV From: Yary Hluchan Files patched: sv.c sv.c The sv_magic() routine didn't properly check to see if it already had a magic of that type. Ordinarily it would have, but it was called during mg_get(), which forces the magic flags off temporarily. NETaa14721: sub defined during erroneous do-FILE caused core dump From: David Campbell Files patched: op.c Fixed the seg fault. I couldn't reproduce the return problem. NETaa14734: ref should never return undef From: Dale Amon Files patched: pp.c t/op/overload.t Now returns null string. NETaa14751: slice of undefs now returns null list From: Tim Bunce Files patched: pp.c pp_hot.c Null list clobberation is now done in lslice, not aassign. NETaa14789: select coredumped on Linux From: Ulrich Kunitz Files patched: pp_sys.c Applied suggested patches, more or less.

NETaa14845: s/// didn't handle offset strings From: Ken MacLeod Files patched: pp_ctl.c Needed a call to SvOOK_off(targ) in pp_substcont(). NETaa14851: Use of << to mean <<"" is deprecated From: Larry Wall Files patched: toke.c NETaa14865: added HINT_BLOCK_SCOPE to "elsif" From: Jim Avera Files patched: perly.y Needed to set HINT_BLOCK_SCOPE on "elsif" to prevent the do block from being optimized away, which caused the statement transition in elsif to reset the stack too far back. NETaa14876: couldn't delete localized GV safely From: John Hughes Files patched: pp.c scope.c The reference count of the "borrowed" GV needed to be incremented while there was a reference to it in the savestack. NETaa14887: couldn't negate magical scalars From: ian Also: Gurusamy Sarathy Files patched: pp.c Applied suggested patch, more or less. (It's not necessary to test both SvNIOK and SvNIOKp, since the private bits are always set if the public bits are set.) NETaa14893: /m modifier was sticky From: Jim Avera Files patched: pp_ctl.c pp_match() and pp_subst() were using an improperly scoped SAVEINT to restore the value of the internal variable multiline.

NETaa14942: substr as lvalue could disable magic From: Darrell Kindred Files patched: pp.c The substr was disabling the magic of $1. NETaa14990: "not" not parseable when expecting term From: "Randal L. Schwartz" Files patched: perly.c perly.c.diff perly.y vms/perly_c.vms The NOTOP production needed to be moved down into the terms. NETaa14993: Bizarre copy of formline From: Tom Christiansen Also: Charles Bailey Files patched: sv.c Applied suggested patch. NETaa14998: sv_add_arena() no longer leaks memory From: Andreas Koenig Files patched: av.c hv.c perl.h sv.c Now keeps one potential arena "on tap", but doesn't use it unless there's demand for SV headers. When an AV or HV is extended, its old memory becomes the next potential arena unless there already is one, in which case it is simply freed. This will have the desired property of not stranding medium-sized chunks of memory when extending a single array repeatedly, but will not degrade when there's no SV demand beyond keeping one chunk of memory on tap, which generally will be about 250 bytes big, since it prefers the earlier freed chunk over the later. See the nice_chunk variable. NETaa14999: $a and $b now protected from use strict and lexical declaration From: Tom Christiansen Files patched: gv.c pod/perldiag.pod toke.c Bare $a and $b are now allowed during "use strict". In addition, the following diag was added: =item Can't use "my %s" in sort comparison (F) The global variables $a and $b are reserved for sort comparisons. You mentioned $a or $b in the same line as the <=> or cmp operator, and the variable had earlier been declared as a lexical variable. Either qualify the sort variable with the package name, or rename the lexical variable. NETaa15034: use strict refs should allow calls to prototyped functions From: Roderick Schertler Files patched: perly.c perly.c.diff perly.y toke.c vms/perly_c.vms Applied patch suggested by Chip. NETaa15083: forced $AUTOLOAD to be untainted From: Tim Bunce Files patched: gv.c pp_hot.c Stripped any taintmagic from $AUTOLOAD after setting it. NETaa15084: patch for Term::Cap From: Mark Kaehny Also: Hugo van der Sanden Files patched: lib/Term/Cap.pm Applied suggested patch. NETaa15086: null pattern could cause coredump in s//_$1_/ From: "Paul E. Maisano" Files patched: cop.h pp_ctl.c If the replacement pattern was complicated enough to cause pp_substcont to be called, then it lost track of which REGEXP* it was supposed to be using. NETaa15087: t/io/pipe.t didn't work on AIX From: Andy Dougherty Files patched: t/io/pipe.t Applied suggested patch. NETaa15088: study was busted From: Hugo van der Sanden Files patched: opcode.h opcode.pl pp.c It was studying its scratch pad target rather than the argument supplied.

NETaa15112: { a_1 => 2 } didn't parse as expected From: Stuart M. Weinstein Files patched: toke.c The little dwimmer was only skipping ALPHA rather than ALNUM chars. NETaa15123: bitwise ops produce spurious warnings From: Hugo van der Sanden Also: Chip Salzenberg Also: Andreas Gustafsson Files patched: sv.c Decided to suppress the warning in the conversion routines if merely converting a temporary, which can never be a user-supplied value anyway. NETaa15129: #if defined (foo) misparsed in h2ph From: Roderick Schertler Files patched: utils/h2ph.PL Applied suggested patch. NETaa15131: some POSIX functions assumed valid filehandles From: Chip Salzenberg Files patched: ext/POSIX/POSIX.xs Applied suggested patch. NETaa15151: don't optimize split on OPpASSIGN_COMMON From: Huw Rogers Files patched: op.c Had to swap the optimization down to after the assignment op is generated and COMMON is calculated, and then clean up the resultant tree differently. NETaa15154: MakeMaker-5.18 From: Andreas Koenig Files patched: MANIFEST lib/ExtUtils/Liblist.pm lib/ExtUtils/MM_VMS.pm lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm lib/ExtUtils/Mksymlists.pm Brought it up to 5.18.

NETaa15175: overloaded nomethod has garbage 4th op From: Ilya Zakharevich Files patched: gv.c Applied suggested patch. NETaa15179: SvPOK_only shouldn't back off on offset pointer From: Gutorm.Hogasen@oslo.teamco.telenor.no Files patched: sv.h SvPOK_only() was calling SvOOK_off(), which adjusted the string pointer after tr/// has already acquired it. It shouldn't really be necessary for SvPOK_only() to undo an offset string pointer, since there's no conflict with a possible integer value where the offset is stored. NETaa15193: & now always bypasses prototype checking From: Larry Wall Files patched: dump.c op.c op.h perly.c perly.c.diff perly.y pod/perlsub.pod pp_hot.c proto.h toke.c vms/perly_c.vms vms/perly_h.vms Turned out to be a big hairy deal because the lexer turns foo() into &foo(). But it works consistently now. Also fixed pod. NETaa15197: 5.002b2 is 'appending' to $@ From: Gurusamy Sarathy Files patched: pp_ctl.c Applied suggested patch.

It now does so if one side is an integer constant and the other side a simple variable. This should really help some of our benchmarks. You can still force a floating point comparison by using 100000.0 instead. NETaa15228: CPerl-mode patch From: Ilya Zakharevich Files patched: emacs/cperl-mode.el Applied suggested patch. NETaa15231: Symbol::qualify() From: Chip Salzenberg Files patched: ext/FileHandle/FileHandle.pm gv.c lib/SelectSaver.pm lib/Symbol.pm pp_hot.c Applied suggested patch. NETaa15236: select select broke under use strict From: Chip Salzenberg Files patched: op.c Instead of inventing a new bit, I just turned off the HINT_STRICT_REFS bit.

NETaa15259: study doesn't unset on string modification From: Larry Wall Files patched: mg.c pp.c Piggybacked on m//g unset magic to unset the study too. NETaa15276: pick a better initial cxstack_max From: Chip Salzenberg Files patched: perl.c Added fudge in, and made it calculate how many it could fit into (most of) 8K, to avoid getting 16K of Kingsley malloc. NETaa15287: numeric comparison optimization adjustments From: Clark Cooper Files patched: op.c Applied patch suggested by Chip, with liberalization to >= and <=. NETaa15299: couldn't eval string containing pod or __DATA__ From: Andreas Koenig Also: Gisle Aas Files patched: toke.c Basically, eval didn't know how to bypass pods correctly.

NETaa15331: File::Path::rmtree followed symlinks From: Andreas Koenig Files patched: lib/File/Path.pm Added suggested patch, except I did if (not -l $root and -d _) { for efficiency, since if -d is true, the -l already called lstat on it. NETaa15339: sv_gets() didn't reset count From: alanburlison@unn.unisys.com Files patched: sv.c Applied suggested patch.

NETaa15348: -M upgrade From: Tim Bunce Files patched: perl.c pod/perlrun.pod Applied suggested patch. NETaa15369: change in split optimization broke scalar context From: Ulrich Pfeifer Files patched: op.c The earlier patch to make the split optimization pay attention to OPpASSIGN_COMMON rearranged how the syntax tree is constructed, but kept the wrong context flags. This causes pp_split() do do the wrong thing. NETaa15423: can't do subversion numbering because of %5.3f assumptions From: Andy Dougherty Files patched: configpm patchlevel.h perl.c perl.h pp_ctl.c Removed the %5.3f assumptions where appropriate. patchlevel.h now defines SUBVERSION, which if greater than 0 indicates a development version. NETaa15424: Sigsetjmp patch From: Kenneth Albanowski Files patched: Configure config_h.SH op.c perl.c perl.h pp_ctl.c util.c Applied suggested patch. Needed to make install paths absolute.

Files patched: installperl xsubpp 1.932 Files patched: lib/ExtUtils/xsubpp ---------------------------------------------------------------- Summary of user-visible Configure and build changes since 5.001: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Yet more enhancements and fixes have been made to the Configure and build process for perl. Most of these will not be visible to the ordinary user--they just make the process more robust and likely to work on a wider range of platforms. This is a brief summary of the most important changes. A more detailed description is given below. Slightly changed installation directories. See INSTALL. Include 5.000 - 5.001 upgrage notes :-) (see below). You might want to read through them as well as these notes. Install documentation for perl modules and pod2* translators. You can now view perl module documentation with either your system's man(1) program or with the supplied perldoc script. Many hint file updates. Improve and simplify detection of local libraries and header files. Expand documentation of installation process in new INSTALL file. Try to reduce Unixisms (such as SH file extraction) to enhance portability to other platforms. There's still a long way to go. Upgrade Traps and Pitfalls: Since a lot has changed in the build process, you are probably best off starting with a fresh copy of the perl5.002 sources. In particular, your 5.000 or 5.001 config.sh will contain several variables that are no longer needed. Further, improvements in the Configure tests may mean that some of the answers will be different than they were in previous versions, and which answer to keep can be difficult to sort out. Therefore, you are probably better off ignoring your old config.sh, as in the following: make -k distclean # (if you've built perl before) rm -f config.sh # (in case distclean mysteriously fails) sh Configure [whatever options you like] make depend make make test This, and much more, is described in the new INSTALL file. Here are the detailed changes from 5.002beta1 to 5.002b2 in reverse chronolgical order: ------------- Version 5.002beta2 ------------- This is patch.2b2 to perl5.002beta1. This takes you from 5.002beta1h to 5.002beta2. Renaming this as beta2 reflects _my_ feeling that it's time to wrap up things for the release of 5.002.

This is mainly a clean-up patch. No progress is made dealing with memory leaks or optimizations, though I have used #define STRANGE_MALLOC to work around at least some problems. Index: Configure Upgraded to metaconfig patchlevel 60. Add in usesafe variable to include or exclude the Safe extension. Test for sigaction(). Check for pager. This was actually accidental since perldoc.PL mentions $pager and metaconfig has a unit to check for the user's pager. In retrospect, I decided the Configure check didn't do any harm and some extension writers might decide to use it. Always put man1dir under $prefix unless a command line override is used. Allow command-line overrides of $man1ext and $man3ext. Allow man1dir and man3dir names like .../man.1 instead of just .../man1. Lots of rearrangements of various pieces of Configure. This might be because I ran metaconfig on a different architecture. libc searching now honors $libpth. Previously, it (almost) always looked in /usr/lib before checking /lib. Only prompt user if voidflags is not 15. If voidflags is 15, then we presume all is well.

I didn't include Dean's mkposixman tool because it seemed to confuse MakeMaker, and I didn't want to manually fix the POSIX/Makefile.PL file today. Renamed minimod.PL. The idea is as follows: I'd like to reserve the .PL suffix for files that are extracted during build time, and then can be deleted after installation. That is, it will be analogous to the .SH suffix. For example, h2xs.PL creates h2xs, and a 'make realclean' will remove the h2xs. Minimod.PL was an exception to this pattern. Eventually, the .PL dependencies will be generated automatically, just as the .SH dependencies are now.
