Commit 79407e68 (v4.3.11) changed recvclient() to keep failing after
receiving EOF from player. This was bad, because some places getting
input check player->aborted instead of recvclient() failure, and
player->aborted wasn't set on EOF. Bugs caused by this:
* comm_bomb(), ship_bomb(), plane_bomb(), land_bomb() went into an
infinite loop that eventually ate all memory.
* deli(), desi(), dist(), fly(), morale(), zdon(), att_prompt(),
ask_move_in() interpreted EOF as empty input instead of no more
input.
* cmd_sail_ship() dereferenced a null pointer.
Fix by setting player->aborted on EOF, too.
(cherry picked from commit b3a7a8ee11)
Reading input fails after EOF and while the current command is
aborted. Commands should detect that and fail. If a command neglects
to do that in a loop, the loop can become infinite. This is
especially bad after EOF, because then the client might not read
output anymore. Output gets buffered until memory runs out.
Mitigate such bugs by counting how many calls have failed in a row,
oopsing on the 256th, and sleeping one minute from the 256th on.
(cherry picked from commit 49c24d7b78)
implemented correctly by asynchronous clients --- unless a client
waits for a prompt after sending the execute command and its argument,
it is prone to send more input before the C_EXECUTE arrives. That
input overtakes the contents of the script file. This is almost
certain to happen when the execute is in a script file. Disabling
that is probably more useful and certainly less painful than
documenting this mess. The client rejects nested execute since
servcmd.c rev. 1.42.
(EXEC): new.
(player_coms): Require it for execute.
(player_set_nstat): Set it in nstat.
(execute): Clear it in nstat.
player->ncomstat for command permissions. Side effect: status() no
longer notifies deities when they go broke or become solvent.
(dispatch): Don't distinguish between transiently and permanently
unavailable commands. Didn't really work anyway.
(player): Remove unused member ncomstat.
(player): New member eof.
(recvclient): Return -1 without receiving input when it is set. Set
it on receipt of "ctld\n".
(execute): Clear it after receiving the script.
other. Ensure headers in include/ can be included in any order
(except for econfig-spec.h, which is special). New header types.h to
help avoid inclusion cycles. Sort include directives. Remove some
superflous includes.
(copy_utf8_to_ascii_no_funny): New.
(flash, wall, prmptrd, uprmptrd, getcommand): Use them to filter
input.
(uprnf, pr_flash): Use them to filter output.
(prtoascii): No longer used, remove.
(player_commands, player_commands_index): Internal linkage.
(player): New member flags.
(PF_UTF8, NF_UTF8): New PF_UTF8 replaces NF_UTF8. Users changed.
(options_cmd): New.
(login_coms): New command `options'.
(toggle): Revert to the previous rev.
thread entrypoints:
(lwpSelect, shutdown_sequence): Parameters didn't match thread entry
point prototype.
(lwpEntryPoint): Arguments didn't match thread entry point prototype.
Change linkage of functions without prototype declaration to static
where possible.
Remove some superflous declarations, replace others by suitable
includes.
