* perlfunc: Should chdir("/") immed after chrootJarkko Hietaniemi2014-05-171-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Inspired by Coverity perl5 CID 28931: Insecure chroot: (CHROOT) chroot_call. The Perl chroot() is a thin wrapper around the system call, so the chdir("/") should not go there. But adding a note about the chdir() being a good idea to perlfunc/chroot. The committer reworded the inserted text for grammar and readability, and the commit message to conform to git standards, and is pushing the commit with the concurrence of the author.

* perlsub: Improve the "Constant Functions" documentationÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason2014-05-121-13/+75
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ever since perl-5.003_95-19-g5431012 which incorporated this patch: Title: "Improve and update documentation of constant subs" From: Tom Phoenix <rootbeer@teleport.com> Msg-ID: <Pine.GSO.3.96.970331122546.14185C-100000@kelly.teleport.com> Date: Mon, 31 Mar 1997 13:05:54 -0800 (PST) Files: pod/perlsub.pod We've documented that "BEGIN { my $x = 1; *X = sub () { $x } }" creates an inlined subroutine, we just weren't doing so very explicitly. Patch the documentation so that we now have explicit examples for the behavior mentioned in the first paragraph of the section. This also adds an explicit mention of the behavior reported as a bug in [RT #79908], shows the user that you can just use B::Deparse rather than relying on a warning to see the effects of inlining, and replaces a contrived way to avoid inlining with just adding a "return". While writing these docs I found a bug in the warning behavior mentioned here, which I filed as [RT #121841]

* perlre: Update obsolete exampleKarl Williamson2014-05-081-4/+3
| | | | | /foo{4,3}/ now emits a message, contrary to what the pod claims. Use a different example that doesn't emit a message
* [perl #121771] Revert the new warning for ++ on non- /\A[a-zA-Z]+[0-9]*\z/Tony Cook2014-05-071-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This failed as in it was producing: Argument "123abc" treated as 0 in increment (++) at -e line 1. when the user incremented that value (which is a lie). This reverts commits 8140a7a801e37d147db0e5a8d89551d9d77666e0 and 2cd5095e471e1d84dc9e0b79900ebfd66aabc909. I expect to revert this commit, and add fixes, after 5.20 is released.

| | | | This partly fixes perl #121643.
* Set Off_t et al correctly for USE_LARGE_FILES builds on WindowsSteve Hay2014-04-141-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | The canned config files used to build miniperl.exe (with some updates applied by Makefile / makefile.mk) have the non-USE_LARGE_FILES settings for Off_t, LSEEKSIZE and Off_t_size, resulting in an uninitialized memory read in win32_fseek() in miniperl.exe, which recently started causing exetype.pl to write a 4GB wperl.exe during the build of a 64-bit perl. Change Makefile / makefile.mk to use the correct settings for the build of miniperl.exe. This fixes perl #121471.
