bin: Remove ancient SCCS tags.

Remove ancient SCCS tags from the tree, automated scripting, with two
minor fixup to keep things compiling. All the common forms in the tree
were removed with a perl script.

Remove $FreeBSD$: one-line .h pattern

Remove /^\s*\*+\s*\$FreeBSD\$.*$\n/

General further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.

Renumber copyright clause 4

Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

sh: Add stsavestr(), like savestr() but allocates using stalloc().


# 336e0c87 11-May-2013 Jilles Tjoelker <jilles@FreeBSD.org>

sh: Remove linked list of stack marks.

The linked list of stack marks may cause problems if the allocation stack is
used between an exception and a higher-level popstackmark(), as it may then
touch a stack mark that is local to a function which has returned.

Also, the adjustment compares to a pointer passed to realloc(), which is
undefined behaviour.

Instead of adjusting stack marks when reallocating stack blocks, ensure that
such an adjustment is never necessary by fixing a small piece of memory in
place at a stack mark. This also simplifies the code.

To avoid the problems reported in bin/175922, it remains necessary to call
setstackmark() after popstackmark() if the stack mark remains in use.


# 46c6b52d 01-Apr-2013 Jilles Tjoelker <jilles@FreeBSD.org>

sh: Fix various compiler warnings.

It now passes WARNS=7 with clang on i386.

GCC 4.2.1 does not understand setjmp() properly so will always trigger
-Wuninitialized. I will not add the volatile keywords to suppress this.


# 33a84133 09-Jan-2011 Jilles Tjoelker <jilles@FreeBSD.org>

sh: Follow-up to r216743, grabstackblock() can be replaced with stalloc().

grabstackblock() was used only once (but it is a very often executed piece
of code).


# ff802dc7 27-Dec-2010 Jilles Tjoelker <jilles@FreeBSD.org>

sh: Simplify "stack string" code slightly.

Maintain a pointer to the end of the stack string area instead of how much
space is left. This simplifies the macros in memalloc.h. The places where
the new variable must be updated are only where the memory area is created,
destroyed or resized.


# d8f32e72 26-Dec-2010 Jilles Tjoelker <jilles@FreeBSD.org>

sh: Allow arbitrary large numbers in CHECKSTRSPACE.
Reduce "stack string" API somewhat and simplify code.
Add a check for integer overflow of the "stack string" length (probably
incomplete).


# 9f5a68a0 11-Dec-2010 Jilles Tjoelker <jilles@FreeBSD.org>

sh: Remove the herefd hack.

The herefd hack wrote out partial here documents while expanding them. It
seems unnecessary complication given that other expansions just allocate
memory. It causes bugs because the stack is also used for intermediate
results such as arithmetic expressions. Such places should disable herefd
for the duration but not all of them do, and I prefer removing the need for
disabling herefd to disabling it everywhere needed.

Here documents larger than 1024 bytes will use a bit more CPU time and
memory.

Additionally this allows a later change to expand here documents in the
current shell environment. (This is faster for small here documents but also
changes behaviour.)

# 9d37e157 23-Nov-2010 Jilles Tjoelker <jilles@FreeBSD.org>

sh: Code size optimizations to "stack string" memory allocation:
* Prefer one CHECKSTRSPACE with multiple USTPUTC to multiple STPUTC.
* Add STPUTS macro (based on function) and use it instead of loops that add
nul-terminated strings to the stack string.

No functional change is intended, but code size is about 1K less on i386.


# a7d5f7eb 19-Oct-2010 Jamie Gritton <jamie@FreeBSD.org>

A new jail(8) with a configuration file, to replace the work currently done

# 7cfe6941 13-Oct-2010 David E. O'Brien <obrien@FreeBSD.org>

Do not assume in growstackstr() that a "precious" character will be
immediately written into the stack after the call. Instead let the caller
manage the "space left".

Previously, growstackstr()'s assumption causes problems with STACKSTRNUL()
where we want to be able to turn a stack into a C string, and later
pretend the NUL is not there.

This fixes a bug in STACKSTRNUL() (that grew the stack) where:
1. STADJUST() called after a STACKSTRNUL() results in an improper adjust.
This can be seen in ${var%pattern} and ${var%%pattern} evaluation.
2. Memory leak in STPUTC() called after a STACKSTRNUL().

Create the altix project branch. The altix project will add support
for the SGI Altix 350 to FreeBSD/ia64. The hardware used for porting
is a two-module system, consisting of a base compute module and a
CPU expansion module. SGI's NUMAFlex architecture can be an excellent
platform to test CPU affinity and NUMA-aware features in FreeBSD.

sh: Constify various strings.

Most of this is adding const keywords, but setvar() in var.c had to be
changed somewhat more.

# 670528cd 28-Oct-2005 Stefan Farfeleder <stefanf@FreeBSD.org>

Protect malloc, realloc and free calls with INT{ON,OFF} directly in chkalloc,
ckrealloc and ckfree (added), respectively. sh jumps out of the signal handler
using longjmp which is obviously a bad idea during malloc calls.

Note: I think there is still a small race here because volatile sig_atomic_t
only guarantees atomic reads and writes while we're doing increments and
decrements.

Protect a setmode call with INT{ON,OFF} as it calls malloc internally.

# 84c3800c 16-Aug-2000 Martin Cracauer <cracauer@FreeBSD.org>

From submitter:
growstackblock() sometimes relocates a stack_block considered empty
without properly relocating stack marks referencing that block.
The first call to popstackmark() with the unrelocated stack mark
as argument then causes sh to abort.

Relocating the relevant stack marks seems to solve this problem.

The patch changes the semantics of popstackmark() somewhat. It can
only be called once after a call to setstackmark(), thus cmdloop() in
main.c needs an extra call to setstackmark().

Merge of 4.4-Lite2 sh source, plus some gcc -Wall cleaning. This is a
merge of parallel duplicate work by Steve Price and myself. :-]

There are some changes to the build that are my fault... mkinit.c was
trying (poorly) to duplicate some of the work that make(1) is designed to
do. The Makefile hackery is my fault too, the depend list was incomplete
because of some explicit OBJS+= entries, so mkdep wasn't picking up their
source file #includes.

This closes a pile of /bin/sh PR's, but not all of them..
