Machine Type: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
Bash Version: 4.3
Patch Level: 39
Release Status: release
Description:
There's a bug that happens when waiting for a child process to complete
(via wait_for in jobs.c) that isn't part of a job, like command
substitution subshells. If a SIGINT is caught by the
wait_sigint_handler, the handler sets the wait_sigint_received flag
which is checked in set_job_status_and_cleanup. But
set_job_status_and_cleanup is called from waitchld only if the pid
belongs to a process that is part of a job. The result is that a SIGINT
trap, if it exists, is not called if a SIGINT is received while waiting
for a comsub subshell.
Repeat-By:
Running the following script (requires python) and giving it a SIGINT
(via ^C) when it blocks doesn't produce any output from the script.
Because SIGINT is trapped it should print “trapped”, however. Closing
stdout causes wait_for to be called in command_substitute:subst.c.
subst-sleep.sh:
trap 'echo trapped >&2; exit 1' INT
foo="$(python -c 'import time, os; os.close(1); time.sleep(20)')"
Fix:
The attached patch makes a conservative change that moves the code that
calls the SIGINT trap handler from set_job_status_and_cleanup to a new
function handle_sigint_caught_during_wait. This function is then
additionally called from waitchld for dead children that don't belong to
a job.
Related to the code the fix touches: handle_sigint_caught_during_wait
contains some duplicated code. Also, wait_for calls waitchld as long as
the child or job is still running and waitchld and
set_job_status_and_cleanup in turn call handle_sigint_caught_during_wait
if the child or job is dead. This seems to ensure that the SIGINT trap
handler is called at most once for a call to wait_for but isn't wait_for
a better place to check wait_sigint_received after having restored the
sigint handler (restore_sigint_handler()), especially since it already
contains CHECK_WAIT_INTR. Not to mention that a SIGINT could be received
after checking the wait_sigint_received flag and before restoring the
signal handler, as far as I understand it.
