vim-patch:9.0.2150: Using int for errbuflen in option funcs
vim-patch:3f7855a6123c
Co-authored-by: Roy Orbitson <Roy-Orbison@users.noreply.github.com>
PROBLEM: `vim.treesitter.get_node()` does not recognize the `lang` in
the option table. This option was used in somewhere else, for instance,
`vim.treesitter.dev` (for `inspect_tree`) but was never implemented.
SOLUTION: Make `get_node()` correctly use `opts.lang` when getting a
treesitter parser.
Problem: Default color scheme is suboptimal.
Solution: Start using new color scheme. Introduce new `vim` color scheme
for opt-in backward compatibility.
------
Main design ideas
- Be "Neovim branded".
- Be minimal for 256 colors with a bit more shades for true colors.
- Be accessible through high enough contrast ratios.
- Be suitable for dark and light backgrounds via exchange of dark and
light palettes.
------
Palettes
- Have dark and light variants. Implemented through exporeted
`NvimDark*` and `NvimLight*` hex colors.
- Palettes have 4 shades of grey for UI elements and 6 colors (red,
yellow, green, cyan, blue, magenta).
- Actual values are computed procedurally in Oklch color space based on
a handful of hyperparameters.
- Each color has a 256 colors variant with perceptually closest color.
------
Highlight groups
Use:
- Grey shades for general UI according to their design.
- Bold text for keywords (`Statement` highlight group). This is an
important choice to increase accessibility for people with color
deficiencies, as it doesn't rely on actual color.
- Green for strings, `DiffAdd` (as background), `DiagnosticOk`, and some
minor text UI elements.
- Cyan as main syntax color, i.e. for function usage (`Function`
highlight group), `DiffText`, `DiagnosticInfo`, and some minor text UI
elements.
- Red to generally mean high user attention, i.e. errors; in particular
for `ErrorMsg`, `DiffDelete`, `DiagnosticError`.
- Yellow very sparingly only with true colors to mean mild user
attention, i.e. warnings. That is, `DiagnosticWarn` and `WarningMsg`.
- Blue very sparingly only with true colors as `DiagnosticHint` and some
additional important syntax group (like `Identifier`).
- Magenta very carefully (if at all).
------
Notes
- To make tests work without relatively larege updates, each one is
prepended with an equivalent of the call `:colorscheme vim`.
Plus some tests which spawn new Neovim instances also now use 'vim'
color scheme.
In some cases tests are updated to fit new default color scheme.
FUNC_ATTR_* should only be used in .c files with generated headers.
Defining FUNC_ATTR_* as empty in headers causes misuses of them to be
silently ignored. Instead don't define them by default, and only define
them as empty after a .c file has included its generated header.
Problem: No test for mode() when executing Ex commands
Solution: Add some test cases and simplify several other test cases.
Also add a few more test cases for ModeChanged.

Problem: The legacy signlist data structures and associated functions are
redundant since the introduction of extmark signs.
Solution: Store signs defined through the legacy commands in a hashmap, placed
signs in the extmark tree. Replace signlist associated functions.
Usage of the legacy sign commands should yield no change in behavior with the
exception of:
- "orphaned signs" are now always removed when the line it is placed on is
deleted. This used to depend on the value of 'signcolumn'.
- It is no longer possible to place multiple signs with the same identifier
in a single group on multiple lines. This will now move the sign instead.
Moreover, both signs placed through the legacy sign commands and through
|nvim_buf_set_extmark()|:
- Will show up in both |sign-place| and |nvim_buf_get_extmarks()|.
- Are displayed by increasing sign identifier, left to right.
Extmark signs used to be ordered decreasingly as opposed to legacy signs.
Problem: buffer text with composing chars are converted from UTF-8
to an array of up to seven UTF-32 values and then converted back
to UTF-8 strings.
Solution: Convert buffer text directly to UTF-8 based schar_T values.
The limit of the text size is now in schar_T bytes, which is currently
31+1 but easily could be raised as it no longer multiplies the size
of the entire screen grid when not used, the full size is only required
for temporary scratch buffers.
Also does some general cleanup to win_line text handling, which was
unnecessarily complicated due to multibyte rendering being an "opt-in"
feature long ago. Nowadays, a char is just a char, regardless if it consists
of one ASCII byte or multiple bytes.
Problem: [security]: overflow with count for :s command
Solution: Abort the :s command if the count is too large
If the count after the :s command is larger than what fits into a
(signed) long variable, abort with e_value_too_large.
Adds a test with INT_MAX as count and verify it correctly fails.
It seems the return value on Windows using mingw compiler wraps around,
so the initial test using :s/./b/9999999999999999999999999990 doesn't
fail there, since the count is wrapping around several times and finally
is no longer larger than 2147483647. So let's just use 2147483647 in the
test, which hopefully will always cause a failure

Use the XTGETTCAP sequence to determine if the host terminal supports
the OSC 52 sequence and, if it does, enable the OSC 52 clipboard
provider by default.
This is only done automatically when all of the following are true:
1. Nvim is running in the TUI
2. 'clipboard' is not set to unnamed or unnamedplus
3. g:clipboard is unset
4. Nvim is running in an SSH connection ($SSH_TTY is set)
5. Nvim is not running inside tmux ($TMUX is unset)
The 'termsync' option enables a mode (provided the underlying terminal
supports it) where all screen updates during a redraw cycle are buffered
and drawn together when the redraw is complete. This eliminates tearing
or flickering in cases where Nvim redraws slower than the terminal
redraws the screen.
Problem:
Platform-specific UI providers should live in `vim.ui.*`. #24164
Solution:
- Move `vim.clipboard.osc52` module to `vim.ui.clipboard.osc52`.
- TODO: move all of `clipboard.vim` to `vim.ui.clipboard`.

Problem: recursive callback may cause issues on some archs
Solution: Decrease the limit drastically to 20
Recursive callback limit causes problems on some architectures
Since commit 47510f3d6598a1218958c03ed11337a43b73f48d we have a test
that causes a recursive popup callback function to be executed. However
it seems the current limit of 'maxfuncdepth' option value is still too
recursive for some 32bit architectures (e.g. 32bit ARM).
So instead of allowing a default limit of 100 (default value for
'maxfuncdepth'), let's reduce this limit to 20. I don't think there is a
use case where one would need such a high recursive callback limit and a
limit of 20 seems reasonable (although it is currently hard-coded).

refactor!: `vim.lsp.inlay_hint()` -> `vim.lsp.inlay_hint.enable()`

Problem: statusline may look different than expected
Solution: do not check for highlighting of stl and stlnc characters
statusline fillchar may be different than expected
If the highlighting group for the statusline for the current window
|hl-StatusLine| or the non-current window |hl-StatusLineNC| are cleared
(or do not differ from each other), than Vim will use the hard-coded
fallback values '^' (for the non-current windows) or '=' (for the
current window). I believe this was done, to make sure the statusline
will always be visible and be distinguishable from the rest of the
window.
However, this may be unexpected, if a user explicitly defined those
fillchar characters just to notice that those values are then not used
by Vim.
So, let's assume users know what they are doing and just always return
the configured stl and stlnc values. And if they want the statusline to
be non-distinguishable from the rest of the window space, so be it. It
is their responsibility and Vim shall not know better what to use.

Problem: No way to have extmarks automatically removed when the range it
is attached to is deleted.
Solution: Add new 'invalidate' property that will hide a mark when the
entirety of its range is deleted. When "undo_restore" is set
to false, delete the mark from the buffer instead.
When the terminal emulator sends an OSC sequence to Nvim (as a response
to another OSC sequence that was first sent by Nvim), populate the OSC
sequence in the v:termresponse variable and fire the TermResponse event.
The escape sequence is also included in the "data" field of the
autocommand callback when the autocommand is defined in Lua.
This makes use of the already documented but unimplemented TermResponse
event. This event exists in Vim but is only fired when Vim receives a
primary device attributes response.
Fixes: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/25856
It is a design goal of extmarks that they allow precise tracking
of changes across undo/redo, including restore the exact positions
after a do/undo or undo/redo cycle. However this behavior is not useful
for all usecases. Many plugins won't keep marks around for long after
text changes, but uses them more like a cache until some external source
(like LSP semantic highlights) has fully updated to changed text and
then will explicitly readjust/replace extmarks as needed.
Add a "undo_restore" flag which is true by default (matches existing
behavior) but can be set to false to opt-out of this behavior.
Delete dead u_extmark_set() code.
connection from any channel or stdio will unblock
remote_ui_wait_for_attach. Wait on stdio only if
only —embed specified, if both —embed and

Problem: Currently there is no way of customizing behavior of
`declaration`, `definition`, `typeDefinition`, and `implementation`
methods in `vim.lsp.buf` when LSP server returns `Location`. Instead,
cursor jumps to that location directly.
Solution: Normalize LSP response to be `Location[]` for those four cases.
While the interfaces for setting number and boolean options are now unified by #25394, there is still a separate `set_string_option` function that is used for setting a string option. This PR removes that function and merges it with set_option.
BREAKING CHANGE: `v:option_old` is now the old global value for all global-local options, instead of just string global-local options. Local value for a global-local number/boolean option is now unset when the option is set (e.g. using `:set` or `nvim_set_option_value`) without a scope, which means they now behave the same way as string options.

The prefix option of the diagnostic virtual text can be a function,

Problem: trim(): hard to use default mask (partly revert v9.0.2040)
Solution: use default mask when it is empty
The default 'mask' value is pretty complex, as it includes many
characters. Yet, if one needs to specify the trimming direction, the
third argument, 'trim()' currently requires the 'mask' value to be
provided explicitly.
Currently, an empty 'mask' will make 'trim()' call return 'text' value
that is passed in unmodified. It is unlikely that someone is using it,
so the chances of scripts being broken by this change are low.
Also, this reverts commit 9.0.2040 (which uses v:none for the default
and requires to use an empty string instead).

Problem: [security] use-after-free with wildmenu
Solution: properly clean up the wildmenu when exiting
Fix wildchar/wildmenu/pum memory corruption with special wildchar's
Currently, using `wildchar=<Esc>` or `wildchar=<C-\>` can lead to a
memory corruption if using wildmenu+pum, or wrong states if only using
wildmenu. This is due to the code only using one single place inside the
cmdline process loop to perform wild menu clean up (by checking
`end_wildmenu`) but there are other odd situations where the loop could
have exited and we need a post-loop clean up just to be sure. If the
clean up was not done you would have a stale popup menu referring to
invalid memory, or if not using popup menu, incorrect status line (if
`laststatus=0`).
For example, if you hit `<Esc>` two times when it's wildchar, there's a
hard-coded behavior to exit command-line as a failsafe for user, and if
you hit `<C-\><C-\><C-N>` it will also exit command-line, but the clean
up code would not have hit because of specialized `<C-\>` handling.
Fix Ctrl-E / Ctrl-Y to not cancel/accept wildmenu if they are also
used for 'wildchar'/'wildcharm'. Currently they don't behave properly,
and also have potentially memory unsafe behavior as the logic is
currently not accounting for this situation and try to do both.
(Previous patch that addressed this: vim/vim#11677)
Also, correctly document Escape key behavior (double-hit it to escape)
in wildchar docs as it's previously undocumented.
In addition, block known invalid chars to be set in `wildchar` option,
such as Ctrl-C and `<CR>`. This is just to make it clear to the user
they shouldn't be set, and is not required for this bug fix.

`is_pull` should be optional, otherwise it is an API change that
introduces warnings in consumers.
Also fixes the type annotation of `_client_pull_namespaces` where the
key is a string.
Problem: Certain compilers (primarily GCC) do not recognize an exhaustive enum switch statement as being exhaustive. This manifests in the form of compiler errors in exhaustive switch statements where each case has a return statement but there isn't a catch-all return statements. These compiler errors are spurious in the context of the Neovim codebase. So #25533 added the `UNREACHABLE` macro to denote apart of the code that's unreachable, which was used after every such switch statement to tell the compiler to treat the switch statement as exhaustive. However, the macro is mentioned nowhere in the style guide,and new contributors would not have any natural way of learning about it as it stands now. This would lead to confusion when they inevitably encounter one of these compiler errors.
Solution: Add a style guideline which shows how to use the `UNREACHABLE` macro to fix these compiler errors.
Problem: The style guide states that all switch statements that are not conditional on an enum must have a `default` case, but does not give any explicit guideline for switch statements that are conditional on enums. As a result, a `default` case is added in many enum switch statements, even when the switch statement is exhaustive. This is not ideal because it removes the ability to have compiler errors to easily detect unchanged switch statements when a new possible value for an enum is added.
Solution: Add explicit guidelines for switch statements that are conditional on an enum, clarifying that a `default` case is not necessary if the switch statement is exhaustive. Also refactor pre-existing code with unnecessary `default` cases.
Problem: cmdline-completion for comma-separated options wrong
Solution: Fix command-line expansions for options with filenames with
commas
Fix command-line expansions for options with filenames with commas
Cmdline expansion for option values that take a comma-separated list
of file names is currently not handling file names with commas as the
commas are not escaped. For such options, the commas in file names need
to be escaped (to differentiate from a comma that delimit the list
items). The escaped comma is unescaped in `copy_option_part()` during
option parsing.
Fix as follows:
- Cmdline completion for option values with comma-separated file/folder
names will not start a new match when seeing `\\,` and will instead
consider it as one value.
- File/folder regex matching will strip the `\\` when seeing `\\,` to
make sure it can match the correct files/folders.
- The expanded value will escape `,` with `\\,`, similar to how spaces
are escaped to make sure the option value is correct on the cmdline.
This fix also takes into account the fact that Win32 Vim handles file
name escaping differently. Typing '\,' for a file name results in it
being handled literally but in other platforms '\,' is interpreted as a
simple ',' and commas need to be escaped using '\\,' instead.
Also, make sure this new logic only applies to comma-separated options
like 'path'. Non-list options like 'set makeprg=<Tab>' and regular ex
commands like `:edit <Tab>` do not require escaping and will continue to
work.
Also fix up documentation to be clearer. The original docs are slightly
misleading in how it discusses triple slashes for 'tags'.

Problem: The style guide currently recommends having a `default:` case for switch statements that are not conditional on an enumerated value. Additionally, it recommends using `assert(false)` if `default:` is unreachable. This is problematic because `assert()` only runs on debug builds, which may lead to confusing breakages in release builds. Moreover, this suggestion is followed nowhere in the C code and `abort()` is used everywhere instead.
Solution: Suggest using `abort()` instead of `assert(false)`, that way the program always terminates if a logically unreachable case is reached.

On Windows, "gf" fails on a filepath that has a line:column suffix.
Example:
E447: Can't find file "src/app/core/services/identity/identity.service.ts:64:23"
Solution:
- Remove ":" from 'isfname' on Windows. Colon is not a valid filename
character (except for the drive-letter).
- Handle drive letters specially in file_name_in_line().
Fixes#25160
Problem:
The swapfile "E325: ATTENTION" dialog is displayed when editing a file
already open in another (running) Nvim. Usually this behavior is
annoying and irrelevant:
- "Recover" and the other options ("Open readonly", "Quit", "Abort") are
almost never wanted.
- swapfiles are less relevant for "multi-Nvim" since 'autoread' is
enabled by default.
- Even less relevant if user enables 'autowrite'.
Solution:
Define a default SwapExists handler which does the following:
1. If the swapfile is owned by a running Nvim process, automatically
chooses "(E)dit anyway" (caveat: this creates a new, extra swapfile,
which is mostly harmless and ignored except by `:recover` or `nvim -r`.
2. Shows a 1-line "ignoring swapfile..." message.
3. Users can disable the default SwapExists handler via `autocmd! nvim_swapfile`.

Problem: cannot complete option values
Solution: Add completion functions for several options
Add cmdline tab-completion for setting string options
Add tab-completion for setting string options on the cmdline using
`:set=` (along with `:set+=` and `:set-=`).
The existing tab completion for setting options currently only works
when nothing is typed yet, and it only fills in with the existing value,
e.g. when the user does `:set diffopt=<Tab>` it will be completed to
`set diffopt=internal,filler,closeoff` and nothing else. This isn't too
useful as a user usually wants auto-complete to suggest all the possible
values, such as 'iblank', or 'algorithm:patience'.
For set= and set+=, this adds a new optional callback function for each
option that can be invoked when doing completion. This allows for each
option to have control over how completion works. For example, in
'diffopt', it will suggest the default enumeration, but if `algorithm:`
is selected, it will further suggest different algorithm types like
'meyers' and 'patience'. When using set=, the existing option value will
be filled in as the first choice to preserve the existing behavior. When
using set+= this won't happen as it doesn't make sense.
For flag list options (e.g. 'mouse' and 'guioptions'), completion will
take into account existing typed values (and in the case of set+=, the
existing option value) to make sure it doesn't suggest duplicates.
For set-=, there is a new `ExpandSettingSubtract` function which will
handle flag list and comma-separated options smartly, by only suggesting
values that currently exist in the option.
Note that Vim has some existing code that adds special handling for
'filetype', 'syntax', and misc dir options like 'backupdir'. This change
preserves them as they already work, instead of converting to the new
callback API for each option.

Problem: No support for writing extended attributes
Solution: Add extended attribute support for linux
It's been a long standing issue, that if you write a file with extended
attributes and backupcopy is set to no, the file will loose the extended
attributes.
So this patch adds support for retrieving the extended attributes and
copying it to the new file. It currently only works on linux, mainly
because I don't know the different APIs for other systems (BSD, MacOSX and
Solaris). On linux, this should be supported since Kernel 2.4 or
something, so this should be pretty safe to use now.
Enable the extended attribute support with normal builds.
I also added it explicitly to the :version output as well as make it
able to check using `:echo has("xattr")`, to have users easily check
that this is available.
In contrast to the similar support for SELINUX and SMACK support (which
also internally uses extended attributes), I have made this a FEAT_XATTR
define, instead of the similar HAVE_XATTR.
Add a test and change CI to include relevant packages so that CI can
test that extended attributes are correctly written.

Use `tic -x` instead of `tic` to include any unknown capabilities in a modern `terminfo.src` as user-defined ones, instead of dropping them. Modern ncurses behavior with `tic -x` will not change.

Problem: filename expansion using ** in bash may fail
Solution: Try to enable the globstar setting
Starting with bash 4.0 it supports extended globbing using the globstar
shell option. This makes matching recursively below a certain directory
using the ** pattern work as expected nowadays. However, we need to
explicitly enable this using the 'shopt -s globstar' bash command.
So let's check the bash environment variable $BASH_VERSINFO (which is
supported since bash 3.0 and conditionally enable the globstar option,
if the major version is at least 4. For older bashs, this at least
shouldn't cause errors (unless one is using really ancient bash 2.X or
something).

Recommend adding a space after i.e. `--- @see`.
The "space" variant is common for the vast majority of docstring formats
such as doxygen, javadoc and typescript.
Problem:
NVIM_APPNAME does not allow path separators in the name, so relative
paths can't be used:
NVIM_APPNAME="neovim-configs/first-config" nvim
NVIM_APPNAME="neovim-configs/second-config" nvim
Solution:
Let NVIM_APPNAME be a relative path. Absolute paths are not supported.

A lot of updated places in the docs were already incorrect since long
since they did not reflect the default behaviour.
"[dos format]" could've been argued being better for discoverability
but that ship has already sailed as it is no longer displayed by default.

The "f" flag was removed in f7da472257.
The value of the "f" flag is no longer listed in the 'shortmess'
description and it cannot be disabled, so having it in the default value
is pointless and confusing.
Oldtests clean up after themselves, and the options that need operators
to align with Vim all deny duplicates, so there is no need to set them
to default.
Also make the variable name that test_listchars.vim uses to align with
Vim more obvious.
Not everything needs to be crazy overconfigurable.
Also fixes a warning in latest clang which didn't approve of
the funky math switch statement in append_arg_number
- Remove the usage of the term "defer" to avoid confusion with
`vim.defer_fn`, which also calls `vim.schedule_wrap` internally.
- Explicitly state that `vim.schedule_wrap` returns a function in the
text.
- Mention that arguments are passed along.
- Include a usage example.
- Rename param to `fn`.
Problem: r_CTRL-C works differently in visual mode
Solution: Make r_CTRL-C behave consistent in visual mode
in terminal and Windows GUI
in visual mode, r CTRL-C behaves strange in Unix like environments. It
seems to end visual mode, but still is waiting for few more chars,
however it never seems to replace it by any characters and eventually
just returns back into normal mode.
In contrast in Windows GUI mode, r_CTRL-C replaces in the selected area
all characters by a literal CTRL-C.
Not sure why it behaves like this. It seems in the Windows GUI, got_int
is not set and therefore behaves as if any other normal character has
been pressed.
So remove the special casing of what happens when got_int is set and
make it always behave like in Windows GUI mode. Add a test to verify it
always behaves like replacing in the selected area each selected
character by a literal CTRL-C.
