Father Chrysostomos [Tue, 13 Apr 2010 15:20:19 +0000]
[perl #73712] ‘Variable is not imported’ cannot be suppressed

The message ‘Variable "%s" is not imported’ cannot be suppressed, even
with -X (local $SIG{__WARN__}=sub{} is what I have to use):

perl -Xle '$foo;use strict; eval q/$foo/ or die "---$@---"'
Variable "$foo" is not imported at (eval 1) line 2.
---Global symbol "$foo" requires explicit package name at (eval 1) line 2.
--- at -e line 1.

This is because we have what appears to the user to be a multi-line
error message. It is in fact a warning ‘Variable...’ followed by an
error ‘Global symbol...’.

RT 8857: premature free in local of tied element

[The original bug report concerned local($_) remained tied, but while
looking at it, Nicholas found some related code that popped up premature
free errors. This commit fixes the freeing issue rather than the issue of
the original bug report ]

Background:

    local $a[0]

does, approximately:

    svp = av_fetch(av);
    SAVE(av,*svp);
    sv = newSV();
    *svp = sv;

This used to leak when av was tied, as the new sv only got embedded in
*svp, which for tied arrays is a temporary placeholder rather than
somewhere within AvARRAY. This leak was fixed in 2002 by adding the
following:

    if (SvTIED_mg(sv, PERL_MAGIC_tiedelem))
sv_2mortal(sv);

which worked, except for the following:

    sub f { local $_[0] }
    f($_) for ($tied[0]);

Here, @_ is a real array not a tied one, yet its first element is a
PERL_MAGIC_tiedelem which trigged the test above. So the sv got
mortalised *and* stored in the array, so got freed twice. The fix is
to test the *array/hash* for tied-ness rather than the element.

Something like the following ended up corrupted:
    sub FETCH { eval 'BEGIN{syntax err}' }
The croak on error popped back the context stack etc to the EVAL pushed by
entereval, but the corresponding JUMPENV_PUSH(3) unwound all the way to the
outer perl_run, losing all the mg_get() related parts of the C stack.

It turns out that the run-time parts of pp_entereval were protected with
a new JUMPENV level, but the compile-time parts weren't. Add this.

    If the perl core is extracted to a directory that has
    cpanp-run-perl installed the same amount of 'uplevels'
    as the /tmp/foo prefix, we'll pull in the wrong script
    by accident.
    Since we set the path to cpanp-run-perl explicitily

David Mitchell [Tue, 30 Mar 2010 14:03:50 +0000]
PL_defoutgv isn't always a GV.

Nasty code like the following results in PL_defoutgv not pointing
to a valid GV:

    my $x = *STDERR; select($x); $x = 1;

This causes all sorts of SEGVs when PL_defoutgv is subsequently accessed,
because most code assumes that it has a valid gv_gp pointer.  It also
turns out that PL_defoutgv is under-tested; for example, temporarily
hacking pp_close to make an arg-less close() croak didn't cause any
minitest failures.

Add a new test file that does some basic testing of a bad PL_defoutgv,
and fix all the obvious badness in accessing it.

This also fixes #20727, which although ostensibly a tie bug, was due to
PL_defoutgv pointing to a tiedelem scalar, and fun like that described
above happening.

Spaces in filenames require non-default settings on VMS.

Specifically DECC$EFS_CHARSET must be enabled and not everything
plays nice with that, so for now this is a to-do.

Bring up to date for 5.12; including POSIX

The regex documentation included changes that were put temporarily into
a 5.11 release, but not into 5.12.  And there were a number of omissions.
I went through this pod and tried to make it reflect reality.

RT #73714: Regression in 5.12: File::Copy and initial spaces

Commit 81ec4fbc8320b72171c9fbea0fa0456b3a687f92
removed some obsolete code that processed with leading spaces in filenames
(not needed with 3-arg open), but didn't quite clean out everything.
This meant that trying to copy to a file whose name had a leading space

Craig A. Berry [Sat, 27 Mar 2010 17:52:33 +0000]
Update Porting/checkAUTHORS.pl to (once again) distinguish authors from committers by processing git log --pretty=fuller, e.g.,

% git log --pretty=fuller perl-5.12.0..HEAD \
? | perl Porting/checkAUTHORS.pl --rank --percentage -

Without this, the --rank and --thanks-applied options were not working.

Also, the meaning of --thanks-applied has changed somewhat; it now only counts
commits where the committer is not the author.

[perl #73720] opt_scalarhv(or OP_BOOLKEYS) does not work

An optimisation for %hash in boolean context, as introduced with

    867fa1e2da145229b4db2c6e8d5b51700c15f114

could falsely optimise constructs that shoudn't be.

Original bug report and fix suggestion were by Goro Fuji.

Include a test to cover the case which was mis-optimised (although
coverage still seems low to me).

Additionally correct B::Deparse (just swap a line, it was using a
variable before it was defined).

14 years agoAdd =encoding utf8 to the 5.12 delta (like the 5.10 delta)

Add =encoding utf8 to the 5.12 delta (like the 5.10 delta)

Without specifying =encoding POD converters would produce strings like
"Ævar" from the source "Ævar". This affected the Acknowledgements
section where several non-ASCII names were present.

Tested by checking if search.cpan.org screwed up non-ASCII characters
in the 5.10 delta, it didn't.
