Subject: [PATCH] [INPUT] Catch attempts to run a directory as a script
Date: Wed, 6 Oct 2010 05:08:04 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101006100804.GB361@burratino> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20101006100420.GA361@burratino>

open() succeeds, though read() fails later, when a pathname
passed as argv[0] on the command line points to a directory,
which somehow results in dash thinking everything is okay:

 $ sh dir/
 $ echo $?
 0

But POSIX makes it clear enough that in "sh command_file",
command_file is supposed to be a file, not a directory.  So
diagnose this with an error message and exit with status 2.

Reported-by: Jari Aalto <jari.aalto@cante.net>
Fixes: http://bugs.debian.org/548687
Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>
---
Applies on top of the previous patch, which is based on
master.

Thanks to Gerrit and Krzysztof for your help so far.
