# /bin/sh has an intermittent failure in ignoring SIGPIPE on OpenIndiana 11
# so we require bash as discussed at:
# https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2020-03/msg00004.html
require_bash_as_SHELL_

# Paraphrasing https://bugs.gnu.org/34488#8:
# POSIX requires that sh started with an inherited ignored SIGPIPE must
# silently ignore all attempts from within the shell to restore SIGPIPE
# handling to child processes of the shell:
#
#    $ (trap '' PIPE; bash -c 'trap - PIPE; seq inf | head -n1')
#    1
#    seq: write error: Broken pipe
#
# With 'env --default-signal=PIPE', the signal handler can be reset to its
# default.

# Baseline Test - default signal handler
# --------------------------------------
# Ensure this results in a "broken pipe" error (the first 'trap'
# sets SIGPIPE to ignore, and the second 'trap' becomes a no-op instead
# of resetting SIGPIPE to its default). Upon a SIGPIPE 'seq' will not be
# terminated, instead its write(2) call will return an error.
(trap '' PIPE; $SHELL -c 'trap - PIPE; seq 999999 2>err1t | head -n1 > out1')

# The exact broken pipe message depends on the operating system, just ensure
# there was a 'write error' message in stderr:
sed 's/^\(seq: write error:\) .*/\1/' err1t > err1 || framework_failure_

printf "1\n" > exp-out || framework_failure_
printf "seq: write error:\n" > exp-err1 || framework_failure_

compare exp-out out1 || framework_failure_
compare exp-err1 err1 || framework_failure_


# env test - default signal handler
# ---------------------------------
# With env resetting the signal handler to its defaults, there should be no
# error message (because the default SIGPIPE action is to terminate the
# 'seq' program):
(trap '' PIPE;
 env --default-signal=PIPE \
    $SHELL -c 'trap - PIPE; seq 999999 2>err2 | head -n1 > out2')

# env test - default signal handler (3)
# -------------------------------------
# Repeat the previous test, using --default-signal with no signal names,
# i.e., all signals.
(trap '' PIPE;
 env --default-signal \
    $SHELL -c 'trap - PIPE; seq 999999 2>err4 | head -n1 > out4')
