vim-patch:8.2.0809: build failure with small features
Problem: Build failure with small features. (Tony Mechelynck)
Solution: Move "expr" inside #ifdef.
5a80f8ad5d
Problem:
- Since c57f6b28d7#8519, sockets are created in ~/.local/… but XDG
spec says: "XDG_RUNTIME_DIR: Must be on the local filesystem", which
implies that XDG_STATE_DIR is potentially non-local.
- Not easy to inspect Nvim-created temp files (for debugging etc).
Solution:
- Store sockets in stdpath('run') ($XDG_RUNTIME_DIR).
- Establish "/tmp/nvim.user/" as the tempdir root shared by all Nvims.
- Make ok() actually useful.
- Introduce assert_nolog().
closes#3517closes#17093
Ref: 84f5463630
Rename:
- `underlineline` to `underdouble`
- `underdot` to `underdotted`
- `underdash` to `underdashed`
`underdouble` also now takes higher precedence than `undercurl`.
Problem:
- Unix sockets are created in random /tmp dirs.
- /tmp is messy, unclear when OSes actually clear it.
- The generated paths are very ugly. This adds friction to reasoning
about which paths belong to which Nvim instances.
- No way to provide a human-friendly way to identify Nvim instances in
logs or server addresses.
Solution:
- Store unix sockets in stdpath('state')
- Allow --listen "name" and serverstart("name") to given a name (which
is appended to a generated path).
TODO:
- is stdpath(state) the right place?
vim-patch:8.2.4903: cannot get the current cmdline completion type and position

vim-patch:8.2.4910: imperfect coding
Problem: Imperfect coding.
Solution: Make code nicer.
9ff7d717aa
PROBLEM
------------------------------------------------------------------------
$NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS has conflicting purposes as both a parameter ("the
current process should listen on this address") and a descriptor ("the
current process is a child of this address").
This contradiction means the presence of NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS is
ambiguous, so child Nvim always tries to listen on its _parent's_
socket. This is the cause of lots of "Failed to start server" spam in
our test/CI logs:
WARN 2022-04-30… server_start:154: Failed to start server: address already in use: \\.\pipe\nvim-4480-0
WARN 2022-04-30… server_start:154: Failed to start server: address already in use: \\.\pipe\nvim-2168-0
SOLUTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Set $NVIM to the parent v:servername, *only* in child processes.
- Now the correct way to detect a "parent" Nvim is to check for $NVIM.
2. Do NOT set $NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS in child processes.
3. On startup if $NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS exists, unset it immediately after
server init.
4. Open a channel to parent automatically, expose it as v:parent.

Skip <MouseMove> (Nvim *kinda* has <MouseMove>, but most of this doc needs
v8.2.4674 anyway...).

62a232506d
Nvim implemented this feature before Vim, but Vim made some useful changes (e.g:
beeping on failure). Port the changes to closer match Vim (also makes porting
future patches easier).
Also note that because CHECK_CMDWIN was added to goto_tabpage_tp, there is no
need to do the extra work with tabpage_index and goto_tabpage inside
goto_tabpage_lastused to fix cmdwin issues any more (#11692).
Note that while goto_tabpage_tp doesn't check for textlock like goto_tabpage
does, it shouldn't matter as it is already checked for earlier.
Add tags for <C-Tab> to tabpage.txt, and refer to <C-Tab> over CTRL-Tab to be
consistent with other docs like the patch.
Remove mention of "previous tabpage" (it can be confused with the tabpage to the
left, e.g: `:tabprevious`).
Similarly, don't rename old_curtab to last_tab in enter_tabpage (it might be
confused with the right-most tabpage, e.g: `:tablast`).

evalarg_T doesn't really matter because it's deleted in v8.2.0918 (and

- Port evalarg_T into eval.h and use const char * and Callback fields
- Use EVALARG_INIT to initialize
- Return bool over OK/FAIL from evalarg functions
- Remove check from evalarg_clean as callback_free ignores None callbacks anyway
- Move eva_buf field into evalarg_get as a local (not sure what reason it has
being in the struct)

Problem: Fuzzy matching only works on strings.
Solution: Support passing a dict. Add matchfuzzypos() to also get the match
positions. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#6947)
4f73b8e9cc
Also remove some N/A and seemingly useless NULL checks -- Nvim allocs can't
return NULL. I'm not sure why the retmatchpos stuff in match_fuzzy checks for
NULL too, given that Vim checks for NULL alloc in do_fuzzymatch; assert that the
li stuff is not NULL as that's the one check I'm ever-so-slightly unsure about.
Adjust tests. Note that the text_cb tests actually throw E6000 in Nvim, but we
also can't assert that error due to v8.2.1183 not being ported yet.
Problem: Cannot do fuzzy string matching.
Solution: Add matchfuzzy(). (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#6932)
635414dd2f
Adjust Test_matchfuzzy's 2nd assert to expect the last error thrown, as
v8.2.1183 hasn't been ported yet (to be honest, the error message is kinda weird
if the 2nd argument is not convertible to string). We can still port this fully
as porting v8.2.1183 would require removing this change to pass CI.

Cherry-pick a line in test from patch 8.2.0634.

shorten_dir() returning a pointer looks a bit confusing here, as it is
actually the same pointer passed to it, and it doesn't really reduce
much code, so change it back to void.
Assigning rettv->vval.v_string = NULL is not needed if a pointer is
within 64 bits. While this is usually the case, I'm not sure if it can
be taken for granted.

8.2.0149).
Move e_reduceempty to funcs.c, as it's only used there. Make it static.
Use tv_blob_len, tv_list_len == 0 for empty checks.
Replace vim_memset(&funcexe, 0, ...) with FUNCEXE_INIT.
Leave li initially undefined (tv_list_first returns NULL if list is NULL).
This patch has a memory leak fixed by v8.2.0882.
Problem: The eval.txt help file is way too big.
