* Deparse.t tweakFather Chrysostomos2017-10-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | The revert two commits ago causes B::Deparse to go through a different code path when dumping the constant. Ideally the output should be the same either way (i.e., consistently with or without a semicolon, not sometimes one way and sometimes the other). But for now, just make the test more lenient.

* Update win32/config_H.[gv]c canned configuration filesSteve Hay2017-10-192-3165/+4134
| | | | | | | | | | This is done using the regen_config_h targets in the Windows makefiles, being careful to restore a couple of things otherwise lost from the config_H.gc file (a couple of STRINGIFY #undefs, comments above the HASATTRIBUTE_* #defines, and the #define of HAS_MKSTEMP). The files are now in sync with the top-level master configuration file, config_h.SH.
* Use SvLEN_set/SvCUR_set in a few extra locationsNicolas R2017-10-193-5/+5
| | | | | | SvLEN was set without using the generic macro SvLEN_set. Use it in three extra locations, and also use SvCUR_set instead of SvCUR.

| * [perl #131730] Fix exec PROGRAM LIST with empty LISTDagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker2017-10-182-6/+24
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This should call execvp() with an empty argv array (containing only the terminating NULL pointer), but was instead just returning false (and not setting $!). Executing a program with an empty argv array is valid ISO C: it merely requires argc to be nonnegative and argv[argc] to be NULL. POSIX states that that argv[0] "should point to a filename string that is associated with the process being started", but "should" only applies to applications claiming strict POSIX conformance. Perl does not, and certainly should not impose it on perl programs. This also requires handling the case where both PROGRAM and LIST are empty, to avoid calling execvp(NULL, …), which _is_ invalid. I've made it return ENOENT, which it the error POSIX specifies for execvp("", …).

* customise Pod::Perldoc to fix output misbehaviourZefram2017-10-163-11/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pod::Perldoc has, since version 3.20, exhibited various kinds of misbehaviour relating to a bad default choice of formatter. Output has sometimes appeared mangled due to the newly-default formatter emitting unportable escape sequences, and sometimes there has been a more severe output failure due to perldoc making unportable changes to pager configuration in an attempt to make the escape sequences work. This is discussed in [perl #131762]. In the upstream instance of the module there have been tweaks to the unportable behaviour, but not an actual fix. In order to make the core distro ship a reliably-working version of perldoc, this patch customises Pod::Perldoc to implement the obvious fix for the portability problems. The fixed version defaults to the ToText formatter, which produces properly plain text that will go through any pager. It never attempts any change to pager configuration.

* Use preprocessor check for some DEBUG_X_TESTNicolas R2017-10-162-7/+25
| | | | | | | | | Most of the DEBUG_?_TEST calls are already protected by one '#idef DEBUGGING' check, but noticed a few of them which were not protected in sv.c and toke.c We should avoid these extra 'if' statements if perl is not compiled with debug option: -DDEBUGGING.

* pp.c: delete dead cpp-conditional declarationAaron Crane2017-10-151-8/+0
| | | | | | | | This was added in commit dfe9444ca7881e716e9e8feaf20b55da491363ca (February 1998, for Perl 5.004_60) by Andy Dougherty, and its comment says that, even then, he thought it was unneeded. But the perl5 repo has ever defined the NEED_GETPID_PROTO cpp symbol that guards this declaration, so this ability has clearly never been used.

* RT#131000: splice doesn't honour read-only flagAaron Crane2017-10-154-2/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The push and unshift builtins were correctly throwing a "Modification of a read-only value attempted" exception when modifying a read-only array, but splice was silently modifying the array. This commit adds tests that all three builtins throw such an exception. One discrepancy between the three remains: push has long silently accepted a push of no elements onto an array, whereas unshift throws an exception in that situation. This seems to have been originally a coincidence. The pp_unshift implementation first makes space for the elements it unshifts (which croaks for a read-only array), then copies the new values into the space thus created. The pp_push implementation, on the other hand, calls av_push() individually on each element; that implicitly croaks, but only one there's at least one element being pushed. The pp_push implementation has subsequently been changed: read-only checking is now done first, but that was done to fix a memory leak. (If the av_push() itself failed, then the new SV that had been allocated for pushing onto the array would get leaked.) That leak fix specifically grandfathered in the acceptance of empty-push-to-readonly-array, to avoid changing behaviour. I'm not fond of the inconsistency betwen push on the one hand and unshift & splice on the other, but I'm disinclined to make empty-push-to-readonly suddenly start throwing an exception after all these years, and it seems best not to extend that exemption-from-exception to the other builtins.

| | | | | | | | Commit 9c12f1e5a87cce227357eea4b0780c0323f952f0 provided support for Cray XT4 Catamount/Qk. It added some code with a call to (insecure) mktemp(), guarded with "#ifdef HAS_MKTEMP". But nothing has ever attempted to define that preprocessor symbol (including the hints file that was added in that commit), so this is clearly unused.
