Peters) Newsgroups: gnu.gdb.bug Subject: gdb-3.4 readline destroys local tty modes +FIX Message-ID: <8911252058.AA04180@practic.com> Date: 25 Nov 89 20:58:50 GMT Sender: news@tut.cis.ohio-state.edu Distribution: gnu Organization: GNUs Not Usenet Lines: 45 Description: gdb3.4 on Vax 4.3bsd-Tahoe: When terminal parity is set to anything other than EVENP+ODDP, local modes are all zero after running gdb. Repeat-By: * Find a terminal that generates parity in the eighth bit. * stty even -odd crt decctlq (or odd -even) * run gdb * stty everything (local modes e.g. decctlq, crtbs, crterase, etc. are all gone) Fix: In readline/readline.c, rl_prep_terminal and rl_deprep_terminal aren't symmetric. Incoming local modes are saved only when parity is set to EVENP+ODDP, but later they're restored unconditionally. Thus when parity is set to anything but EVENP+ODDP, local modes get restored from a word that's all zero. This fix applies the same EVENP+ODDP test at restoration time. ----- jfp@practic.com *** readline.c.orig Thu Oct 19 14:26:49 1989 --- readline.c Sat Nov 25 10:14:40 1989 *************** *** 2078,2084 **** int tty = fileno (rl_instream); #if defined (TIOCLGET) && defined (LPASS8) ! ioctl (tty, TIOCLSET, &local_mode_flags); #endif #ifdef TIOCSLTC --- 2078,2085 ---- int tty = fileno (rl_instream); #if defined (TIOCLGET) && defined (LPASS8) ! if ((the_ttybuff.sg_flags & (ODDP | EVENP)) == (ODDP | EVENP)) ! ioctl (tty, TIOCLSET, &local_mode_flags); #endif #ifdef TIOCSLTC
