- Previously, the command "cmd /c script -c cmd" in console of Win7
crashes. This seems to be due to a bug (?) of AttachConsole().
This patch adds workaround for this issue.
Currently, pty reattaches to the console of the process which is
predetermined by ConsoleProcessList() after temporarily attaching
to another console. After that, the console output handle opened
with the name "CONOUT$" may not be accessible in Win7 or Vista.
This seems to happen when the attached process does not have the
same handle even if the console attached is the same. With this
patch, cygwin-console-helper which is started when pty master is
opened in console, is utilized to be a target process to which
pty reattaches if the OS is Win7 or Vista.
- Previously, script command sometimes crashes by Ctrl-C in Win 7
if it is running in console, and non-cygwin app is foreground.
This patch fixes the issue.
- The recent commit "Cygwin: pty: Fix timing of creating invisible
console." breaks the feature added by commit 72770148, which
prevents pty from changing code page of parent console. This patch
restores that.
- Previously, invisible console was created in fixup_after_exec().
However, actually this should be done in fixup_after_fork(). this
patch fixes the issue.
- When temporarily attaching a console, the timing of acquiring
attach_mutex was not appropriate. This sometimes caused master
forwarding thread to crash on Ctrl-C in Windows 7. This patch
fixes the issue.
Even after fork, we might need the parent sigmask without having
access to the real _main_tls. There's a short time at process startup,
when _main_tls points to the system-allocated stack, but wait_sig is
already running. If we can't lock _main_tls, because find_tls can't
find it yet, we now access the parent's sigmask via child_info.

A recent patch fixed gmondump to stop printing "0x0x" as an address
prefix. It turns out the Cygwin User's Guide and the gmondump and
ssp man pages (all from utils.xml) have examples of the same error.
- In the latest GDB (11.2-1), Ctrl-C behaviour is broken a bit for
non-cygwin inferior. For example, Ctrl-C on GDB prompt is not sent
to GDB but to the inferior. This patch fixes the issue.
- The internal handles in HPCON should not be inheritable, however,
the current code duplicates them as inheritable when handing over
ownership of the pseudo console. This patch fixes the issue.

- Currently, close_pseudoconsole() is called unconditionally from
fhandler_termios::process_sigs() on Ctrl-C. This causes deadlock
if Ctrl-C is pressed while setup_pseudoconsole() is called. With
this patch, close_pseudoconsole() is called only if the master
process is the owner of the nat-pipe to avoid the deadlock.
- As mentioned in commit message of the commit b531d6b0, if multiple
writers including non-cygwin app exist, the non-cygwin app cannot
detect pipe closure on the read side when the pipe is created by
system account or the the pipe creator is running as service.
This is because query_hdl which is held in write side also is a
read end of the pipe, so the pipe is still alive for the non-cygwin
app even after the reader is closed.
To avoid this problem, this patch lets all processes in the same
process group close query_hdl using newly introduced internal signal
__SIGNONCYGCHLD when non-cygwin app is started.

- Using memcmp() to compare structure such as INPUT_RECORD is not
correct manner because padding may not be initialized. This patch
stops to use memcmp() for comparison of INPUT_RECORD.
- dwControlKeyState also may be null'ed on WriteConsoleInputW().
Therefore ignore it in event comparison as well as wVirtualKeyCode
and wVirtualScanCode.
- The commit "Cygwin: console: Improve the code to avoid typeahead
key swapping." did not solve the problem enough. Two unexpected
things happen.
(1) wVirtualKeyCode and wVirtualScanCode of readback key event may
be null'ed even if they are not zero on WriteConsoleInputW().
Therefore, memcmp() may report the event sequence is not equal.
(2) WriteConsoleInputW() may not be atomic. The event sequence
which is written by WriteConsoleInputW() may be inserted by
key input in the middle of the sequence. Current code gives
up to fix in this situation.
This patch should fix that issue.
- If UNC path for DFS is mounted to a drive with drive letter, the
error "Too many levels of symbolic links" occurs when accessing
to that drive. This is because GetDosDeviceW() returns unexpected
string such as "\Device\Mup\DfsClient\;Z:000000000003fb89\dfsserver
\dfs\linkname" for the mounted UNC path "\??\UNC\fileserver\share".
This patch adds a workaround for this issue.

- After the commit "Cygwin: pty, console: Fix handle leak which
occurs on exec() error.", startxwin cannot start X due to the
error "Failed to activate virtual core keyboard: 2". The problem
is access violation in the code retrieving the pgid of the ctty.
This patch fixes the issue.

- Currently, tty::pcon_start flag is cleared before transfer_input()
in master::write(), however, the code in setup_pseudoconsole()
waits for transfer_input() using tty::pcon_start. This possibly
causes the race issue. The patch fixes this potential issue.
- To make read() work properly in canonical mode, writing to the pty
pipe should be done line by line. However, only CR was treated as
line separator previously in transfer_input(). This patch fixes
the issue.
- transfer_input() function uses console api, so it should be guarded
by attach_mutex. However, in most cases, it is missing. This patch
fixes the issue.
- This patch revises the acquiring/releasing timing for attach_mutex
to make the period in which it is being acquired shorter. Further,
acquiring/releasing are added to where they are missing but needed.
The "how" value only makes sense if a new set is given. If we
only read the current signal set, ignore the value of "how" per
POSIX:
"If set is a null pointer, the value of the argument how is not
significant"

- When Ctrl-C terminates a non-cygwin process on a pseudo console,
pty master attaches to the pseudo console first, and send
CTRL_C_EVENT. If the non-cygwin process closes the pseudo console
before the pty master calls FreeConsole(), the pty master process
will crash. With this patch, pty master process takes over the
ownership of the pseudo console, and closes it by myself.
- With this patch, unique invisible consoles are created for each pty
to isolate CTRL_C_EVENTs between ptys. This is necessary by Ctrl-C
handling in fhandler_termios::process_sigs() for non-cygwin apps
started in pty if the pseudo console is disabled.
- The commit "Cygwin: console: Prevent the order of typeahead input
from swapped." did not fully resolve the issue. If keys are typed
during input buffer fix, the order of key event may be swapped.
This patch fixes the issue again.
- The recent commit "Cygwin: pinfo: Fix exit code when non-cygwin app
exits by Ctrl-C." did not fix enough the issue. If a non-cygwin app
is reading the console, it will not return STATUS_CONTROL_C_EXIT
even if it is terminated by Ctrl-C. As a result, the previous patch
does not take effect.
This patch solves this issue by setting sigExeced to SIGINT in
ctrl_c_handler(). In addition, sigExeced will be cleared if the app
does not terminated within predetermined time period. The reason is
that the app does not seem to be terminated by the signal sigExeced.
- The commit "Cygwin: console: Fix issues of apps which open pty."
did not fix the second problem correctly. That commit looked to
fix the issue, but the actual problem was that ctrl_c_handler()
should be reregistered *AFTER* FreeConsole()/AttachConsole().
This patch correct that.
- The commit "Cygwin: console: Restore CTRL_BREAK_EVENT handling."
was accidentally mixed with experimental code in exceptions.cc.
Due to this, non-cygwin app receives CTRL_C_EVENT twice in the
following scenario.
1) Run 'sleep 10 | <non-cygwin app>'
2) Hit Ctrl-C.
3) The non-cygwin app receives CTRL_C_EVENT twice.
This patch reverts the code with the problem.
