This cleans up our previous fixes for a bug whereby Bison
discarded `.field' in `$-1.field'. The previous fixes were less
restrictive about where a dash could appear in an identifier, but
the restrictions were hard to explain. That bug was reported and
this final fix was originally suggested by Paul Hilfinger. This
also fixes a remaining bug reported by Paul Eggert whereby Bison
parses `%token ID -123' as `%token ID - 123' and handles `-' as an
identifier. Now, `-' cannot be an identifier. Discussed in
threads beginning at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2011-01/msg00000.html>,
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2011-01/msg00004.html>.
* NEWS (2.5): Update entry describing the dash extension to
grammar symbol names. Also, move that entry before the named
references entry because the latter mentions the former.
* doc/bison.texinfo (Symbol): Update documentation for symbol
names. As suggested by Paul Eggert, mention the effect of periods
and dashes on named references.
(Decl Summary): Update documentation for unquoted %define values,
which, as a side effect, can no longer start with dashes either.
* src/scan-code.l (id): Implement.
* src/scan-gram.l (id): Implement.
* tests/actions.at (Exotic Dollars): Extend test group to exercise
bug reported by Paul Hilfinger.
* tests/input.at (Symbols): Update test group, and extend to
exercise bug reported by Paul Eggert.
* tests/named-refs.at (Stray symbols in brackets): Update test
group.
($ or @ followed by . or -): Likewise.
* tests/regression.at (Invalid inputs): Likewise.
* doc/bison.texinfo (Mid-Rule Actions): Mention that periods and
dashes make symbol names less convenient for named references.
* src/scan-code.l:
(handle_action_dollar): New arg textlen. All callers changed.
(handle_action_at): Likewise. Also, args are pointers to const.
(ref_tail_fields): Remove; no longer used.
(letter): Now includes '-' and '.', since this is for Bison
identifiers.
(id): Now the simpler traditional defn, since letters now include
'-' and '.'.
(c_letter, c_id): New defns.
(ref): Use c_id for unbracketed IDs.
(<SC_RULE_ACTION>): Simplify, now that the distinction between
Bison and unbracketed IDs are now in the regular expressions.
(VARIANT_BAD_BRACKETING): Remove.
(VARIANT_NOT_VISIBLE_FROM_MIDRULE): Renumber.
(find_prefix_end): Remove, replacing with ....
(identifier_matches): New function.
(variant_add): Use it. Omit EXPLICIT_BRACKETING arg; no longer
needed. CP arg is pointer to constant. All callers changed.
(show_sub_messages): Remove args CP, EXPLICIT_BRACKETING, DOLLAR_OR_AT.
New arg TEXT. All callers changed. Do not worry about showing
trailing context.
(parse_ref): Args CP, RULE, TEXT are now pointers to const. New
arg TEXTLEN. Remove arg DOLLAR_OR_AT. All callers changed.
Simplify code now that the regular expressions capture the
restrictions.
* src/scan-gram.l (letter, id): Adjust to match scan-code.l.
* src/symlist.c (symbol_list_null): Arg is now pointer to const.
* src/symlist.h: Likewise.
* tests/named-refs.at (Misleading references): These are now caught
by the C compiler, not by Bison; that's good enough. Adjust test
to reflect this.
(Many kinds of errors, Unresolved references): Adjust expected
diagnostics to match new behavior. The same errors are caught,
though the diagnostics are not quite as fancy.
($ or @ followed by . or -): Likewise. Also, Make the grammar
unambiguous, so that diagnostics are not complicated by ambiguity
warnings.
Previously, for this special case of an invalid reference, the
usual "symbol not found in production:" was printed. However,
because the symbol name was parsed as the empty string, that
message was followed immediately by a newline instead of a symbol
name. In reality, this is a syntax error, so the reference is
invalid regardless of the symbols actually appearing in the
production. Discussed at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2011-01/msg00012.html>.
* src/scan-code.l (parse_ref): Report the above case as a syntax
error. Other than that, continue to handle this case like any
other invalid reference that Bison manages to parse because
"possibly meant" messages can still be helpful to the user.
* tests/named-refs.at ($ or @ followed by . or -): New test group.
* data/yacc.c: Rename %define variable parse.lac.es-capacity to
parse.lac.es-capacity-initial. Accept parse.lac.memory-trace
with values of "failures" (default) or "full".
(b4_declare_parser_state_variables): Add yyesa, yyes, and
yyes_capacity variables.
(YYSTACK_USE_ALLOCA): Ignore it if LAC requested.
(YYSTACK_ALLOC, YYSTACK_FREE, YYSTACK_ALLOC_MAXIMUM): Define if
LAC requested.
(YYCOPY_NEEDED): New cpp macro.
(YYCOPY): Define if LAC requested.
(yy_lac_stack_realloc): New function implementing stack
reallocations. Use YYMAXDEPTH for maximum stack size given that
the stack should never need to grow larger than the main state
stack needs to grow without LAC.
(YY_LAC_ESTABLISH): Update yy_lac invocation.
(yy_lac): Add arguments for exploratory stack memory data
recorded in the main parser. Invoke yy_lac_stack_realloc when
reallocation is necessary.
(yysyntax_error): Add the same new arguments and pass them to
yy_lac.
(yypstate_delete): Free yyes if necessary.
(yyesa, yyes, yyes_capacity): #define these to yypstate members
in the case of push parsing.
(yyparse, yypush_parse): Initialize yyes and yyes_capacity.
Update yysyntax_error invocations. At yyreturn, free yyes if
necessary.
* src/parse-gram.y: %define parse.lac full.
* tests/input.at (LAC: errors for %define): Extend for
parse.lac-memory-trace.
* tests/regression.at (LAC: Exploratory stack): Extend to check
that stack reallocs happen when expected.
(LAC: Memory exhaustion): Update to use YYMAXDEPTH and
parse.lac.es-capacity-initial.
LAC = lookahead correction. See discussion at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2009-09/msg00034.html>.
However, one point there must be corrected: because of %nonassoc,
LAC is *not* always redundant for lr.type=canonical-lr.
* data/yacc.c: Accept values of "none" (default) or "full" for
parse.lac. Accept %define parse.lac.es-capacity to specify
capacity of LAC's temporary exploratory stack. It defaults to 20
and, for now, will not grow dynamically.
(b4_lac_flag, b4_lac_if): New m4 macros. Evaluate as true for
parse.lac!=none.
(YYBACKUP): Invoke YY_LAC_DISCARD.
(YY_LAC_ESTABLISH, YY_LAC_DISCARD): New cpp macros that invoke
yy_lac and track when it needs to be invoked
(yy_lac): New function that, given the current stack, determines
whether a token can eventually be shifted. Return status mimics
yyparse return status.
(yysyntax_error): Change yystate argument to yyssp so stack top
can be passed to yy_lac. If LAC is requested, build expected
token list by invoking yy_lac for every token instead of just
checking the current state for lookaheads. Return 2 if yy_lac
exhausts memory.
(yyparse, yypush_parse): Use local variable yy_lac_established and
cpp macros YY_LAC_ESTABLISH and YY_LAC_DISCARD to implement LAC.
Update yysyntax_error invocation. Add yyexhaustedlab code if LAC
is requested.
* tests/conflicts.at (%nonassoc and eof): Extend to check the
effect of each of -Dlr.type=canonical-lr and -Dparse.lac=full.
(parse.error=verbose and consistent errors): Likewise.
(LAC: %nonassoc requires splitting canonical LR states): New test
group demonstrating how LAC can fix canonical LR.
* tests/input.at (LAC: Errors for %define): New test group.
* tests/regression.at (LAC: Exploratory stack): New test group.
(LAC: Memory exhaustion): New test group.
* NEWS (2.5): Document.
* data/yacc.c (yysyntax_error): In a verbose syntax error
message while in a consistent state with a default action (which
must be an error action given that yysyntax_error is being
invoked), continue to drop the expected token list, but don't
drop the unexpected token unless there actually is no lookahead.
Moreover, handle that internally instead of returning 1 to tell
the caller to do it. With that meaning of 1 gone, renumber
return codes more usefully.
(yyparse, yypush_parse): Update yysyntax_error usage. Most
importantly, set yytoken to YYEMPTY when there's no lookahead.
* data/glr.c (yyreportSyntaxError): As in yacc.c, don't drop the
unexpected token unless there actually is no lookahead.
* data/lalr1.cc (yy::parser::parse): If there's no lookahead,
pass yyempty_ not yyla.type to yysyntax_error_.
(yy::parser::yysyntax_error_): Again, don't drop the unexpected
token unless there actually is no lookahead.
* data/lalr1.java (YYParser::parse): If there's no lookahead,
set yytoken to yyempty_ before invoking yysyntax_error.
(YYParser::yysyntax_error): Again, don't drop the unexpected
token unless there actually is no lookahead.
* tests/conflicts.at (parse.error=verbose and consistent
errors): Extend test group to further reveal how the previous
use of the simple "syntax error" message was too general. Test
yacc.c, glr.c, lalr1.cc, and lalr1.java. No longer an expected
failure.
* tests/java.at (AT_JAVA_COMPILE, AT_JAVA_PARSER_CHECK): Move
to...
* tests/local.at: ... here.
(_AT_BISON_OPTION_PUSHDEFS): Push AT_SKEL_JAVA_IF definition.
(AT_BISON_OPTION_POPDEFS): Pop it.
(AT_FULL_COMPILE): Extend to handle Java.
Jim Meyering reported this in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2010-10/msg00007.html>.
* data/yacc.c: Use EXIT_SUCCESS as a witness for stdlib.h,
not _STDLIB_H. EXIT_SUCCESS has been defined by the standard
for quite some time.
* src/parse-gram.c, src/parse-gram.h: Regenerate.
* tests/regression.at: Tamper with the renamed witness.
* .cvsignore, build-aux/.cvsignore, doc/.cvsignore, etc/.cvsignore:
* examples/calc++/.cvsignore, lib/.cvsignore, m4/.cvsignore:
* po/.cvsignore, runtime-po/.cvsignore, src/.cvsignore:
* tests/.cvsignore: Remove; I don't use CVS to maintain Bison
anymore and don't know of anybody else who does. If someone needs
these files, they can resurrect them.
* .gitignore, build-aux/.gitignore, doc/.gitignore, lib/.gitignore:
* m4/.gitignore, po/.gitignore, runtime-po/.gitignore:
Omit leading '/', since bootstrap omits it.
Adjust file names to match current contents better.
* bootstrap: Sync from gnulib: this contains the new gnulib_mk_hook
installed just for us.
* bootstrap.conf (excluded_files): Don't exclude codeset.m4,
glibc21.m4, inttypes_h.m4, size_max.m4, xsize.m4, as they are now
needed somehow. Don't have time to look into why.
(gnulib_modules): Change malloc to malloc-gnu. Do we really assume
the GNU malloc behavior, where malloc (0) != NULL unless we're
out of storage? If not, we can omit malloc-gnu; but for now I left
it in to be safe.
(vc_ignore): Remove.
(gnulib_mk_hook): New function.
* README-hacking: Renamed from HACKING, since gnulib bootstrap now
uses that convention.
* NEWS (2.4.3): Document fix.
* src/complain.c (error_message): Extend to handle incomplete
error messages so warn and warn_at can be used in more cases.
* src/gram.c (grammar_rules_useless_report): Use warn_at so that
-Werror is always obeyed.
* src/reduce.c (reduce_print): Use warn so that the "warnings
being treated as errors" message is printed consistently before
the first warning message. This makes testing easier.
* tests/local.at (AT_BISON_WERROR_MSG): New macro.
(AT_BISON_CHECK_NO_XML): Extend to check -Werror and
--warnings=error when warnings appear in bison's stderr.
(cherry picked from commit 954474bfa1)
* tests/output.at (AT_CHECK_OUTPUT): Extend to accept pre-tests.
(Output files: -dv >&-): Skip test group if running
maintainer-check-valgrind.

* tests/calc.at: Use yy::parser::location_type rather than
yy::location, since the former is always right, and might point to
another type than the latter.
* tests/output.at (AT_CHECK_CONFLICTING_OUTPUT): Use
AT_BISON_CHECK_NO_XML rather than AT_BISON_CHECK because an
output file whose name conflicts with a previous output file
is now never generated.
(cherry picked from commit a3d760ef5d)
M4's output pipe was not being drained upon fatal errors during
scan_skel. As a result, broken-pipe messages from M4 were seen
on at least AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, and RHEL4, and this caused a
failure in the test suite. The problem was that, on platforms
where the default disposition for SIGPIPE is ignore instead of
terminate, M4 sometimes saw fwrite fail with errno=EPIPE and
then reported it. However, there's some sort of race condition,
because the new test group occasionally succeeded.
Reported by Albert Chin at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2010-02/msg00004.html>.
There were also problems with the test suite livelocking on
Tru64 5.1b. Reported by Didier Godefroy at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2009-05/msg00005.html>.
Switching to create_pipe_bidi suggested by Akim Demaille.
To attempt to solve both of these problems, switch to gnulib's
create_pipe_bidi and register M4 process as a slave. Along the
way, clean up file name conflict handling, which was affected by
the broken-pipe problem before the switch.
* NEWS (2.4.2): Document.
* THANKS (Didier Godefroy): Add.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add pipe.
* gnulib: Update to latest to make sure we have all the latest

* po/POTFILES.in (lib/subpipe.c): Remove.
* src/files.c (compute_output_file_names): Update invocations
of output_file_name_check.
(output_file_name_check): In the case that the grammar file
would be overwritten, use complain instead of fatal, but replace
the output file name with /dev/null. Use the /dev/null solution
for the case of two conflicting output files as well because it
seems safer in case Bison one day tries to open both files at
the same time.
* src/files.h (output_file_name_check): Update prototype.
* src/output.c (output_skeleton): Use create_pipe_bidi and
wait_subprocess. Assert that scan_skel completely drains the
pipe.

The problem was that yacc.c didn't always update the yychar
translation afterwards. However, other skeletons appear to be
fine. glr.c appears to already translate yychar before every
use. lalr1.cc does not define yychar and does not document its
replacement, yyla, for users. It does provide yyclearin, but
that does not manipulate yyla and thus requires no translation
update. In lalr1.java, yychar is out of scope during semantic
actions.
* NEWS (2.5): Document.

Except when memory reallocation is required, this change
eliminates the need to invoke yysyntax_error twice and thus to
repeat the collection of lookaheads. It also prepares for
future extensions that will make those repetitions more
expensive and that will require additional memory management in
yysyntax_error. Finally, it fixes an obscure bug already
exercised in the test suite.
* data/yacc.c (yysyntax_error): Add arguments for message
buffer variables stored in the parser. Instead of size, return
status similar to yyparse status but indicating success of
message creation. Other than the actual reallocation of the
message buffer, import and clean up memory management code
