# 219352 06-Mar-2011 kib

The execution of the shebang script requires putting interpreter path,
possible option and script path in the place of argv[0] supplied to
execve(2). It is possible and valid for the substitution to be shorter
then the argv[0].

Avoid signed underflow in this case.

# 212965 21-Sep-2010 alc

Fix exec_imgact_shell()'s handling of two error cases: (1) Previously, if
the first line of a script exceeded MAXSHELLCMDLEN characters, then
exec_imgact_shell() silently truncated the line and passed on the truncated
interpreter name or argument. Now, exec_imgact_shell() will fail and return
ENOEXEC, which is the commonly used errno among Unix variants for this type
of error. (2) Previously, exec_imgact_shell()'s check on the length of the
interpreter's name was ineffective. In other words, exec_imgact_shell()
could not possibly fail and return ENAMETOOLONG. The reason being that the
length of the interpreter name had to exceed MAXSHELLCMDLEN characters in
order that ENAMETOOLONG be returned. But, the search for the end of the
interpreter name stops after at most MAXSHELLCMDLEN - 2 characters are
scanned. (In the end, this particular error is eventually discovered
outside of exec_imgact_shell() and ENAMETOOLONG is returned. So, the real
effect of this second change is that the error is detected earlier, in
exec_imgact_shell().)

Update the definition of MAXINTERP to the actual limit on the size of
the interpreter name that has been in effect since r142453 (from
2005).

# 210545 27-Jul-2010 alc

Introduce exec_alloc_args(). The objective being to encapsulate the
details of the string buffer allocation in one place.

Eliminate the portion of the string buffer that was dedicated to storing
the interpreter name. The pointer to the interpreter name can simply be
made to point to the appropriate argument string.

# 210475 25-Jul-2010 alc

Change the order in which the file name, arguments, environment, and
shell command are stored in exec*()'s demand-paged string buffer. For
a "buildworld" on an 8GB amd64 multiprocessor, the new order reduces
the number of global TLB shootdowns by 31%. It also eliminates about
330k page faults on the kernel address space.

Change exec_shell_imgact() to use "args->begin_argv" consistently as
the start of the argument and environment strings. Previously, it
would sometimes use "args->buf", which is the start of the overall
buffer, but no longer the start of the argument and environment
strings. While I'm here, eliminate unnecessary passing of "&length"
to copystr(), where we don't actually care about the length of the
copied string.

Clean up the initialization of the exec map. In particular, use the
correct size for an entry, and express that size in the same way that
is used when an entry is allocated. The old size was one page too
large. (This discrepancy originated in 2004 when I rewrote
exec_map_first_page() to use sf_buf_alloc() instead of the exec map
for mapping the first page of the executable.)

# 182191 26-Aug-2008 kib

When calculating arguments to the interpreter for the shebang script
executed by fexecve(2), imgp->args->fname is NULL. Moreover, there is
no way to recover the path to the script being executed.
Do what some other U*ixes do unconditionally, namely supply /dev/fd/n
as the script path when called from fexecve(). Document requirement of
having fdescfs mounted as caveat.


# 147479 19-Jun-2005 gad

Fix a panic which could occur parsing #!-lines in a shell-script. If the
#!-line had multiple whitespace characters after the interpreter name, and
it did not have any options, then the code would do nasty things trying to
process a (non-existent) option-string which "ended before it began"...

# 147151 08-Jun-2005 gad

Remove the previous parsing-logic for arguments on the '#!'-line of shell
scripts. As far as I know, no one has needed the '#!#<' kludge to get at
the behavior implemented by the historical parsing.


# 146731 28-May-2005 gad

Change the way options are parsed on the `#!'-line of a shell-script. Instead
of having the kernel parse that line and add an entry to the argument list for
each 'separate word' it finds, have it add only one entry which holds all
the words found on that line. The old behavior is useful in some situations,
but it does not match the way any other operating system will parse that line.

This has been discussed in the thread "Bug in #! processing - One More Time"
on the freebsd-arch mailing list (starting back on Feb 24, 2005). The first
few messages in that thread provide the background in much detail.

o Replace two while {} do loops with more appropriate do {} while loops. This
doesn't change functionality, but makes code more logical.

Obtained from: DrafonFlyBSD

o Use VOP_GETATTR() to obtain actual size of file and parse no more than that.
Previously, we parsed MAXSHELLCMDLEN characters regardless of the actual file
size. This makes the following working:

$ printf '#!/bin/echo' > /tmp/test.sh
$ chmod 755 /tmp/test.sh
$ /tmp/test.sh

Previously, attempts to execve() that shell script has been failing with bogus
ENAMETOOLONG.

# 142444 25-Feb-2005 sobomax

Try harder to not exceed MAXSHELLCMDLEN when parsing first line of shell

script with first line not ending in '\n'.

Also, treat '\0' as line terminating character, which may me useful in
some situations.

# 106437 04-Nov-2002 rwatson

Remove reference to struct execve_args from struct imgact, which
describes an image activation instance. Instead, make use of the
existing fname structure entry, and introduce two new entries,
userspace_argv, and userspace_envv. With the addition of
mac_execve(), this divorces the image structure from the specifics
of the execve() system call, removes a redundant pointer, etc.
No semantic change from current behavior, but it means that the
structure doesn't depend on syscalls.master-generated includes.

There seems to be some redundant initialization of imgact entries,
which I have maintained, but which could probably use some cleaning
up at some point.

# 59663 26-Apr-2000 dillon

Fix #! script exec under linux emulation. If a script is exec'd from a
program running under linux emulation, the script binary is checked for
in /compat/linux first. Without this patch the wrong script binary
(i.e. the FreeBSD binary) will be run instead of the linux binary.
For example, #!/bin/sh, thus breaking out of linux compatibility mode.

This solves a number of problems people have had installing linux
software on FreeBSD boxes.


# 57226 15-Feb-2000 cracauer

backslash escaping or '#' in interpreter names.

*gulp*. Jordan specifically OK'ed this..

This is the bulk of the support for doing kld modules. Two linker_sets
were replaced by SYSINIT()'s. VFS's and exec handlers are self registered.
kld is now a superset of lkm. I have converted most of them, they will
follow as a seperate commit as samples.
This all still works as a static a.out kernel using LKM's.

All:
Changed vnodep -> vp for consistency with the rest of the kernel, and
changed iparams -> imgp for brevity.

kern_exec.c:
Explicitly initialized some additional parts of the image_params struct
to avoid bzeroing it. Rewrote the set-id code to reduce the number of
logical tests. The rewrite exposed a mostly benign bug in the algorithm:
traced set-id images would get ktracing disabled even if the set-id didn't
happen for other reasons.

Remove prototype definitions from <sys/systm.h>.
Prototypes are located in <sys/sysproto.h>.

Add appropriate #include <sys/sysproto.h> to files that needed
protos from systm.h.

Add structure definitions to appropriate files that relied on sys/systm.h,
right before system call definition, as in the rest of the kernel source.

In kern_prot.c, instead of using the dummy structure "args", create
individual dummy structures named <syscall>_args. This makes
life easier for prototype generation.

While in the real world, I had a bad case of being swapped out for a lot of
cycles. While waiting there I added a lot of the extra ()'s I have, (I have
never used LISP to any extent). So I compiled the kernel with -Wall and
shut up a lot of "suggest you add ()'s", removed a bunch of unused var's
and added a couple of declarations here and there. Having a lap-top is
highly recommended. My kernel still runs, yell at me if you kernel breaks.


# 2112 18-Aug-1994 wollman

Fix up some sloppy coding practices:

- Delete redundant declarations.
- Add -Wredundant-declarations to Makefile.i386 so they don't come back.
- Delete sloppy COMMON-style declarations of uninitialized data in
header files.
- Add a few prototypes.
- Clean up warnings resulting from the above.

NB: ioconf.c will still generate a redundant-declaration warning, which
is unavoidable unless somebody volunteers to make `config' smarter.


# 2056 13-Aug-1994 wollman

Change all #includes to follow the current Berkeley style. Some of these
``changes'' are actually not changes at all, but CVS sometimes has trouble
telling the difference.

This also includes support for second-directory compiles. This is not
quite complete yet, as `config' doesn't yet do the right thing. You can
still make it work trivially, however, by doing the following:

rm /sys/compile
mkdir /usr/obj/sys/compile
ln -s M-. /sys/compile
cd /sys/i386/conf
config MYKERNEL
cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL
ln -s /sys @
rm machine
ln -s @/i386/include machine
make depend
