If the less is started from non-cygwin shell and window size is
changed, it will hang-up when quitting. The cause of the proglem is
that less uses longjump() in signal handler. If the signal handler
is called while cygwin is acquiring the mutex, cygwin loses the
chance to release mutex. With this patch, the mutex is released
just before calling kill_pgrp() and re-acquired when kill_pgrp()
returns.

After the commit 9e4d308cd5, the performance of read from non-cygwin
pipe has been degraded. This is because select_sem mechanism does not
work for non-cygwin pipe. This patch fixes the issue.

flag for read pipe.")

Only required for Windows 7.
This in turn allows to drop the helper_pid and related
methods from fhandler_pty_common.

In commit 2dab880c96 I did a mistake when
I copied the new fhandler_serial::switch_modem_lines() from my modified
3.3.6 branch to the current master and I left a copy paste error. This
patch fixes that error.
Fixes: 2dab880c96 ("Cygwin: fix TIOCMBIS/TIOCMBIC not working when using usbser.sys")
- Previously, we have two tty.cc, one is winsup/cygwin/tty.cc and
the other is winsup/cygwin/fhandler/tty.cc. This is somewhat
confusing. This patch renames fhandler/tty.cc to fhandler/pty.cc.
- The codes related to pty and console in spawn.cc have been moved
into the new class fhandler_termios::spawn_worker, and make spawn.cc
call them. The functionality has not been changed at all.
In winsup/cygwin/fhandler/serial.cc, the function
fhandler_serial::switch_modem_lines() is called when TIOCMBIS/TIOCMBIC
are used in an ioctl() call.
This function uses EscapeCommFunction() for setting and resetting RTS
and DTR signals of a serial port. Unfortunately, this function does not
work on USB CDC devices.
This is not a true bug of CYGWIN but an issue of the usbser.sys driver,
from Windows 2000 to the latest Windows 11. Both 32bit and 64bit
versions of the operating system are affected. Actually, I tested
EscapeCommFunction() also when using a real UART, based on the
traditional 16550 driver and it works fine. Using thirdy party CDC
drivers, like the one provided by FTDI for their USB bridge chips,
probably also works.
However, it is also possible to drive the RTS/DTR signals by writing
their state with SetCommState(), which proved to be working fine all
types of connection. This is also a better solution for handling these
signals since RTS/DTR can be set at the same time rather than having two
separate calls with a visible delay between them.
Report 0 instead of 268435455 (i.e. 0xFFFFFFF) in the tty field of
/proc/*/stat for processes without a controlling terminal. This is what
the procps utility expects when selecting or excluding such processes.
Now that the cygheap isn't part of the CYgwin DLL anymore, we have a
known memory location which is not known in maps output. Fix that by
checking for cygheap address (same in all processes) and add to output.

.com is a remnant from the past. There are only five executables
left:
chcp.com
format.com
mode.com
more.com
tree.com
Calling them on the command line already requires to use the
suffix anyway. So drop useless .com test from the execve test
for scripts (they are handled earlier in the same function
as executables) and do not handle them like .exe suffixes in
other functions.

According to POSIX and the Linux man page, select(2) is supposed to
report read ready if a file is at EOF. In the case of a FIFO, this
means that the pipe is empty and there are no writers. But there
seems to be an undocumented exception, observed on Linux and other
platforms: If no writer has ever been opened, then select(2) does not
report read ready. This can happen if a reader is opened with
O_NONBLOCK before any writers have opened.
This commit makes Cygwin consistent with those other platforms by
introducing a special EOF test, fhandler_fifo::select_hit_eof, which
returns false if there's never been a writer opened.
To implement this we use a new variable '_writer_opened' in the FIFO's
shared memory, which is set to 1 the first time a writer opens. New
methods writer_opened() and set_writer_opened() are used to test and
set this variable.
