4 years agoavoid identical stack traces
David Mitchell [Fri, 13 Dec 2019 13:48:25 +0000 (13:48 +0000)]
avoid identical stack traces

GH #15109

The output of caller() (e.g. as produced by carp::Confess) produces
multiple identical outputs when within a nested use/require. This is
because at the time of calling the 'BEGIN { require ... }', PL_curcop is
set to &PL_compiling, which is a fixed buffer within the interpreter,
whose individual file and line fields are saved and restored when doing
a new require/eval. This means that within the innermost require,
PL_compiling has file:lineno of the innermost source file, and multiple
saved PL_curcop values in the context stack frames all point to the same
&PL_copmpiling.  So all levels of the stack trace appear to come from the
innermost file.

This commit fixes this (after a fashion) by, at the start of calling a
BEGIN, making PL_curcop point to a temporary copy of PL_compiling
instead.

This is all a bit of a hack.

Karl Williamson [Tue, 10 Dec 2019 02:37:28 +0000 (19:37 -0700)]
Only allow punct delimiter for regex subpattern

The experimental feature that allows wildcard subpatterns in finding
Unicode properties, is supposed to only allow ASCII punctuation for
delimitters.  But if you preceded the delimitter by a backslash, the
check was skipped.  This commit fixes that.

It may be that we will eventually want to loosen the restriction and
allow a wider range of delimiters.  But until we have valid use-cases
that would push us in that direction, I don't want to get into
supporting stuff that we might later regret, such as invisible
characters for delimitters.  This feature is not really required for
programs to work, so I don't view it as necessary to be as general as
possible.

PATCH: GH #17081: Workaround glibc bug with LC_MESSAGES

Please see the ticket for a full explanation.  This bug has been
submitted to glibc, without any real action forthcoming so far.

This invalidates the message cache each time the locale of LC_MESSAGES
is changed, as glibc should be doing this when uselocale changes that,
but glibc fails to do so.

This patch is an extension to the one submitted by Niko Tyni++.

I don't know how to test it, since a test would rely on several
different locales in different languages being available, and that
depends on what's installed on the platform.  I suppose that one could
go through the available locales, and try to find three with different
wording for the same message.  Doing so however would trigger the bug,
and at the end, if we didn't get three that differed, we wouldn't know
we wouldn't know if it is because of the bug, or that they just didn't
exist on the system.

However, below is a perl program that demonstrated the patch worked.
You could adjust it to the available locales.  The buggy code shows the
same text for all locales.  The fixed shows three different languages.

use strict;

use Locale::gettext;
use POSIX;

$ENV{LANG} = 'C.UTF-8';

for my $lang (qw(fi_FI fr_FR en_US)) {
    $ENV{LANGUAGE} = $lang;
    setlocale(LC_MESSAGES, '');
    my $d = Locale::gettext->domain("bash");
    print $d->get('syntax error'), "\n";

Move regex global variables to interpreter level

This scenario from the ticket
(https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/17154#issuecomment-558877358)
shows why this fix is necessary:

    main interpreter initializes PL_AboveLatin1 to an SV it owns

    loads threads::lite and creates a new thread/interpreter which
    initializes PL_AboveLatin1 to a SV owned by the new interpreter

    threads::lite child interpreter finishes, freeing all of its SVs,
    PL_AboveLatin1 is now invalid

    main interpreter uses a regexp that relies on PL_AboveLatin1, dies
    horribly.

By making these interpreter level variables, this is avoided.  There is
extra copying, but it is just the SV headers, as the real data is kept
as static C arrays.
