In commit d07d7d66f6 I rewrote the code that constructs RTF paste
data so that it uses a strbuf, in place of the previous ad-hoc code
that counted up the lengths of pieces of RTF in advance in order to
realloc the buffer.
But apparently I left in an entire loop whose job was to count up one
of those lengths, failing to notice that it's now completely pointless
because its output value is never needed!
Happily a clang upgrade has just improved the 'variable set but not
used' warning to the point where it can spot that. I expect previously
the variable still counted as 'used' because each increment of it used
the previous value.

I thought I'd found all of these before, but perhaps a few managed to
slip in since I last looked. The character argument to the <ctype.h>
functions must have the value of an unsigned char or EOF; passing an
ordinary char (unless you know char is unsigned on every platform the
code will ever go near) risks mistaking '\xFF' for EOF, and causing
outright undefined behaviour on byte values in the range 80-FE. Never
do it.

Horizontal scroll events aren't generated by the traditional mouse
wheel, but they can be generated by trackpad gestures, though this
isn't always configured on.
The cross-platform and Windows parts of this patch is due to
Christopher Plewright; I added the GTK support.

From https://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.html#h3-Any-event-tracking:
Any-event mode is the same as button-event mode, except that all motion
events are reported, even if no mouse button is down. It is enabled by
specifying 1003 to DECSET.
Normally the front ends only report mouse events when buttons are
pressed, so we introduce a MA_MOVE event with MBT_NOTHING set to
indicate such a mouse movement.

A server attempt to resize the window (for instance via DECCOLM) when
"When window is resized" was set to "Forbid resizing completely" would
cause all terminal output to be suspended, due to the resize attempt
never being acknowledged.
(There are other code paths like this, which I've fixed for
completeness, but I don't think they have any effect: the terminal
filters out resize attempts to the current size before this point, and
even if a server can get such a request through the SUPDUP protocol, the
test for that is wrong and will never fire -- this needs fixing
separately.)

The conditionalisation of that call on 'protocol == PROT_SSH' has been
around since the beginning of our git history. But in those days,
random_save_seed() was unconditional _internally_ - it would always
create and write to the seed file regardless of whether the random
pool had even been initialised, let alone used.
Now random_save_seed() has its own internal condition which prevents
it doing anything if the random subsystem was never started up in the
first place. So it's better to call it unconditionally from
cleanup_exit, and then it'll be able to do its thing whenever needed,
without having to second-guess based on the top-level protocol.
(In fact, that's what all the other implementations of cleanup_exit()
have done all along. On Unix, and in Windows console apps, we do call
random_save_seed() unconditionally, and expect it to uncomplainingly
do nothing if there's nothing to do.)
(cherry picked from commit 260aad5fca)
In cases where we refuse a resize request, either because it's too
large or because the window is not currently resizable due to being
maximised, we were failing to communicate that back to the Terminal so
that it could stop waiting for the resize and resume processing input.
Those have been there since around 2001. They're in a piece of code
that calls get_fullscreen_rect to find the overall screen size, and
then prevents attempts to resize the window larger than that. The
static variables were arranging that we don't have to call
get_fullscreen_rect more than once.
But, firstly, computers are faster 20 years on; secondly, remote
window-resize requests are intentionally rate-limited (as of commit
d74308e90e), so this shouldn't be the limiting factor anyway; and
thirdly, multi-monitor support has appeared since then, which means
that if the window has been dragged from one monitor to another then
get_fullscreen_rect might _legitimately_ return a different bounding
rectangle when called a second time.
So we should just do the full check every time unconditionally.

My experimental build with clang-cl at -Wall did show up a few things
that are safe enough to fix right now. One was this list of missing
includes, which was causing a lot of -Wmissing-prototype warnings, and
is a real risk because it means the declarations in headers weren't
being type-checked against the actual function definitions.
Happily, no actual mismatches.
This patch fixes a few other whitespace and formatting issues which
were pointed out by the bulk-reindent or which I spotted in passing,
some involving manual editing to break lines more nicely.
I think the weirdest hunk in here is the one in windows/window.c
TranslateKey() where _half_ of an assignment statement inside an 'if'
was on the same line as the trailing paren of the if condition. No
idea at all how that one managed to happen!
I think a lot of these were inserted by a prior run through GNU indent
many years ago. I noticed in a more recent experiment that that tool
doesn't always correctly distinguish which instances of 'id * id' are
pointer variable declarations and which are multiplications, so it
spaces some of the former as if they were the latter.
My aim has always been to have those back-dented by 2 spaces (half an
indent level) compared to the statements around them, so that in
particular switch statements have distinct alignment for the
statement, the cases and the interior code without consuming two whole
indent levels.
This patch sweeps up all the violations of that principle found by my
bulk-reindentation exercise.
My bulk indentation check also turned up a lot of cases where a run-on
function call or if statement didn't have its later lines aligned
correctly relative to the open paren.
I think this is quite easy to do by getting things out of
sync (editing the first line of the function call and forgetting to
update the rest, perhaps even because you never _saw_ the rest during
a search-replace). But a few didn't quite fit into that pattern, in
particular an outright misleading case in unix/askpass.c where the
second line of a call was aligned neatly below the _wrong_ one of the
open parens on the opening line.
Restored as many alignments as I could easily find.
In several pieces of development recently I've run across the
occasional code block in the middle of a function which suddenly
switched to 2-space indent from this code base's usual 4. I decided I
was tired of it, so I ran the whole code base through a re-indenter,
which made a huge mess, and then manually sifted out the changes that
actually made sense from that pass.
Indeed, this caught quite a few large sections with 2-space indent
level, a couple with 8, and a handful of even weirder things like 3
spaces or 12. This commit fixes them all.
In the 'xterm 216+' function key mode, a function key pressed with a
combination of Shift, Ctrl and Alt has its usual sequence like
ESC[n~ (for some integer n) turned into ESC[n;m~ where m-1 is a 3-bit
bitmap of currently pressed modifier keys.
This mode now also applies to the keys on the small keypad above the
arrow keys (Ins, Home, PgUp etc). If xterm 216+ mode is selected,
those keys are modified in the same way as the function keys.
As with the function keys, this doesn't guarantee that PuTTY will
_receive_ any particular shifted key of this kind, and not repurpose
it. Just as Alt+F4 still closes the window (at least on Windows)
rather than sending a modified F4 sequence, Shift+Ins will still
perform a paste action rather than sending a modified Ins sequence,
Shift-PgUp will still scroll the scrollback, etc. But the keys not
already used by PuTTY for other purposes should now have their
modern-xterm behaviour in modern-xterm mode.
Thanks to H.Merijn Brand for developing and testing a version of this
patch.
The text of the host key warnings was replicated in three places: the
Windows rc file, the GTK dialog setup function, and the console.c
shared between both platforms' CLI tools. Now it lives in just one
place, namely ssh/common.c where the rest of the centralised host-key
checking is done, so it'll be easier to adjust the wording in future.
This comes with some extra automation. Paragraph wrapping is no longer
done by hand in any version of these prompts. (Previously we let GTK
do the wrapping on GTK, but on Windows the resource file contained a
bunch of pre-wrapped LTEXT lines, and console.c had pre-wrapped
terminal messages.) And the dialog heights in Windows are determined
automatically based on the amount of stuff in the window.
The main idea of all this is that it'll be easier to set up more
elaborate kinds of host key prompt that deal with certificates (if,
e.g., a server sends us a certified host key which we don't trust the
CA for). But there are side benefits of this refactoring too: each
tool now reliably inserts its own appname in the prompts, and also, on
Windows the entire prompt text is copy-pastable.
Details of implementation: there's a new type SeatDialogText which
holds a set of (type, string) pairs describing the contents of a
prompt. Type codes distinguish ordinary text paragraphs, paragraphs to
be displayed prominently (like key fingerprints), the extra-bold scary
title at the top of the 'host key changed' version of the dialog, and
the various information that lives in the subsidiary 'more info' box.
ssh/common.c constructs this, and passes it to the Seat to present the
actual prompt.
In order to deal with the different UI for answering the prompt, I've
added an extra Seat method 'prompt_descriptions' which returns some
snippets of text to interpolate into the messages. ssh/common.c calls
that while it's still constructing the text, and incorporates the
resulting snippets into the SeatDialogText.
For the moment, this refactoring only affects the host key prompts.
The warnings about outmoded crypto are still done the old-fashioned
way; they probably ought to be similarly refactored to use this new
SeatDialogText system, but it's not immediately critical for the
purpose I have right now.
Instead of maintaining a single sparse table mapping Unicode to the
currently selected code page, we now maintain a collection of such
tables mapping Unicode to any code page we've so far found a need to
work with, and we add code pages to that list as necessary, and never
throw them away (since there are a limited number of them).
This means that the wc_to_mb family of functions are effectively
stateless: they no longer depend on a 'struct unicode_data'
corresponding to the current terminal settings. So I've removed that
parameter from all of them.
This fills in the missing piece of yesterday's commit a216d86106:
now wc_to_mb too should be able to handle internally-implemented
character sets, by hastily making their reverse mapping table if it
doesn't already have it.
(That was only a _latent_ bug, because the only use of wc_to_mb in the
cross-platform or Windows code _did_ want to convert to the currently
selected code page, so the old strategy worked in that case. But there
was no protection against an unworkable use of it being added later.)
Fixes a cosmetic issue where the new ConPTY error added in 4ae8b742ab
had an ugly "Unable to open connection to".
(Arguably this ought to test a backend property rather than
cmdline_tooltype.)
This makes pterm.exe support the same (very small) subset of the
standard option collection that Unix pterm does. Namely, -load (which
won't do anything useful with a hostname to connect to, but is still
useful if you have a saved session containing configuration like
colours or default size or what have you), and also -sessionlog.
To make this work, I've had to move the 'tooltype' definition out of
window.c into {putty,pterm}.c, so that it can be defined differently
in the two.
This matches the way it's done in the GTK backend: the only thing that
happens inside seat_notify_remote_exit is that we schedule a toplevel
callback, and all the real work happens later on when that callback is
called.
The particular situation where this makes a difference is if you
perform a user abort during proxy authentication (e.g. hit ^D at a
proxy password prompt), so that the main SSH backend gets
PLUGCLOSE_USER_ABORT and calls ssh_user_close. That doesn't
immediately close the socket; it just sets ssh->pending_close,
schedules a run of ssh_bpp_output_raw_data_callback, and returns.
So if seat_notify_remote_exit calls back _synchronously_ to
ssh_return_exitcode, it will see that the socket is still open and
return -1. But if it schedules a callback and waits, then the callback
to ssh_bpp_output_raw_data_callback will happen first, which will
close the socket, and then the exit processing will get the right
answer.
So the user-visible effect is that if you ^D a proxy auth prompt, GTK
PuTTY will close the whole window (assuming you didn't set close-on-
exit to 'never'), whereas Windows PuTTY will leave the window open,
and not even know that the connection is now shut (in that it'll still
ask 'Are you sure you want to close this session?' if you try to close
it by hand).
With this fix, Windows PuTTY behaves the same as GTK in this respect.
When the user provides a password on the PuTTY command line, via -pw
or -pwfile, the flag 'tried_once' inside cmdline_get_passwd_input() is
intended to arrange that we only try sending that password once, and
after we've sent it, we don't try again.
But this plays badly with the 'Restart Session' operation. If the
connection is lost and then restarted at user request, we _do_ want to
send that password again!
So this commit moves that static variable out into a small state
structure held by the client of cmdline_get_passwd_input. Each client
can decide how to manage that state itself.
Clients that support 'Restart Session' - i.e. just GUI PuTTY itself -
will initialise the state at the same time as instantiating the
backend, so that every time the session is restarted, we return
to (correctly) believing that we _haven't_ yet tried the password
provided on the command line.
But clients that don't support 'Restart Session' - i.e. Plink and file
transfer tools - can do the same thing that cmdline.c was doing
before: just keep the state in a static variable.
This also means that the GUI login tools will now retain the
command-line password in memory, whereas previously they'd have wiped
it out once it was used. But the other tools will still wipe and free
the password, because I've also added a 'bool restartable' flag to
cmdline_get_passwd_input to let it know when it _is_ allowed to do
that.
In the GUI tools, I don't see any way to get round that, because if
the session is restarted you _have_ to still have the password to use
again. (And you can't infer that that will never happen from the
CONF_close_on_exit setting, because that too could be changed in
mid-session.) On the other hand, I think it's not all that worrying,
because the use of either -pw or -pwfile means that a persistent copy
of your password is *already* stored somewhere, so another one isn't
too big a stretch.
(Due to the change of -pw policy in 0.77, the effect of this bug was
that an attempt to reconnect in a session set up this way would lead
to "Configured password was not accepted". In 0.76, the failure mode
was different: PuTTY would interactively prompt for the password,
having wiped it out of memory after it was used the first time round.)
In the changes around commit 420fe75552, I made the terminal
suspend output processing while it waited for a term_size() callback
in response to a resize request. Because on X11 there are unusual
circumstances in which you never receive that callback, I also added a
last-ditch 5-second timeout, so that eventually we'll resume terminal
output processing regardless.
But the timeout lives in terminal.c, in the cross-platform code. This
is pointless on Windows (where resize processing is synchronous, so we
always finish it before the timer code next gets called anyway), but I
decided it was easier to keep the whole mechanism in terminal.c in the
absence of a good reason not to.
Now I've found that reason. We _also_ generate window resizes locally
to the GTK front end, in response to the key combinations that change
the font size, and _those_ still have an asynchrony problem.
So, to begin with, I'm refactoring the request_resize system so that
now there's an explicit callback from the frontend to the terminal to
say 'Your resize request has now been processed, whether or not you've
received a term_size() call'. On Windows, this simplifies matters
greatly because we always know exactly when to call that, and don't
have to keep a 'have we called term_size() already?' flag. On GTK, the
timing complexity previously in terminal.c has moved into window.c.
No functional change (I hope). The payoff will be in the next commit.
The previous fix on pre-0.77 was non-disruptive and just enough to get
through my Coverity build (which uses winelib); but now that I look at
the rest of the Winelib build output, there are some further warnings
I should fix on main.
Most of them are more long/LONG confusion (specific to Winelib, rather
than real Windows); also, there's a multiple macro definition in
jump-list.c because Winelib defines _PROPVARIANT_INIT_DEFINED_ in
place of _PROPVARIANTINIT_DEFINED_ which we were testing for. (Bah.)
And in windows/window.c I used wcscmp without including <wchar.h>.
In spite of long vs LONG I still had to turn off one or two more
DLL-loading typechecks.
Using a new screenshot-taking module I just added in windows/utils,
these new options allow me to start up one of the tools with
demonstration window contents and automatically save a .BMP screenshot
to disk. This will allow me to keep essentially the same set of demo
images and update them easily to keep pace with the current appearance
of the real tools as PuTTY - and Windows itself - both evolve.
I got a pterm into a stuck state this morning by an accidental mouse
action. I'd intended to press Ctrl + right-click to pop up the context
menu, but I accidentally pressed down the left button first, starting
a selection drag, and then while the left button was still held down,
pressed down the right button as well, triggering the menu.
The effect was that the context menu appeared while term->selstate was
set to DRAGGING, in which state terminal output is suppressed, and
which is only unset by a mouse-button release event. But then that
release event went to the popup menu, and the terminal window never
got it. So the terminal stayed stuck forever - or rather, until I
guessed the cause and did another selection drag to reset it.
This happened to me on GTK, but once I knew how I'd done it, I found I
could reproduce the same misbehaviour on Windows by the same method.
Added a simplistic fix, on both platforms, that cancels a selection
drag if the popup menu is summoned part way through it.
Turns out that PuTTY hasn't run successfully on legacy Windows since
0.66, in spite of an ongoing intention to keep it working. Among the
reasons for this is that CreateWindowExW simply fails with
ERROR_CALL_NOT_IMPLEMENTED: apparently Win95 and its ilk just didn't
have fully-Unicode windows as an option.
Fixed by resurrecting the previous code from the git history (in
particular, code removed by commit 67e5ceb9a8 was useful), and
including it as a runtime alternative.
One subtlety was that I found I had to name the A and W window classes
differently (by appending ".ansi" to the A one): apparently they
occupy the same namespace even though the names are in different
character sets, so if you somehow manage to register both classes,
they'll collide with each other without that tweak.
These are more functions that don't exist on all our supported legacy
versions of Windows, so we need to follow the same policy as
everywhere else, by trying to acquire them at run time and having a
fallback if they aren't available.
By testing on a platform slow enough to show the flicker, I happened
to notice that if your shell prompt resets the window title every time
it's displayed, this was actually resulting in a call to SetWindowText
every time, which caused the GUI to actually do work.
There's certainly no need for that! We can at least avoid bothering if
the new title is identical to the old one.
It turns out that they're still NULL at the first moment that a
SetWindowText call tries to read one of them, because they weren't
initialised at startup! Apparently SetWindowText notices that it's
been passed a null pointer, and does nothing in preference to failing,
but it's still not what I _meant_ to do.
Apparently when I made Windows Pageant use the winselgui system, I
added the call that gets WSAAsyncSelect response messages sent to
Pageant's window, but I didn't add the switch case in the window
procedure that actually handles those responses. I suppose I didn't
notice at the time because no actual functionality used it - Pageant
has never yet dealt with any real (i.e. Winsock) sockets, only with
HANDLE-based named pipes, which are called 'sockets' in PuTTY's
abstraction, but not by Windows.
It looks as if I broke this some time around commit cfc9023616,
when I stopped proactively calling term_size() in advance of resizing
the window. A side effect was that I also stopped calling it at all in
the case where we're _not_ resizing the window (because changing the
size of the terminal means adapting the font size to fit a different
amount of stuff in the existing window).
Fixed by moving all the new machinery inside the 'actually resize the
window' branch of the if statement, and restoring the previous
behaviour in the other branch, this time with a comment that will
hopefully stop me making the same mistake again.
All the seat functions that request an interactive prompt of some kind
to the user - both the main seat_get_userpass_input and the various
confirmation dialogs for things like host keys - were using a simple
int return value, with the general semantics of 0 = "fail", 1 =
"proceed" (and in the case of seat_get_userpass_input, answers to the
prompts were provided), and -1 = "request in progress, wait for a
callback".
In this commit I change all those functions' return types to a new
struct called SeatPromptResult, whose primary field is an enum
replacing those simple integer values.
The main purpose is that the enum has not three but _four_ values: the
"fail" result has been split into 'user abort' and 'software abort'.
The distinction is that a user abort occurs as a result of an
interactive UI action, such as the user clicking 'cancel' in a dialog
box or hitting ^D or ^C at a terminal password prompt - and therefore,
there's no need to display an error message telling the user that the
interactive operation has failed, because the user already knows,
because they _did_ it. 'Software abort' is from any other cause, where
PuTTY is the first to know there was a problem, and has to tell the
user.
We already had this 'user abort' vs 'software abort' distinction in
other parts of the code - the SSH backend has separate termination
functions which protocol layers can call. But we assumed that any
failure from an interactive prompt request fell into the 'user abort'
category, which is not true. A couple of examples: if you configure a
host key fingerprint in your saved session via the SSH > Host keys
pane, and the server presents a host key that doesn't match it, then
verify_ssh_host_key would report that the user had aborted the
connection, and feel no need to tell the user what had gone wrong!
Similarly, if a password provided on the command line was not
accepted, then (after I fixed the semantics of that in the previous
commit) the same wrong handling would occur.
So now, those Seat prompt functions too can communicate whether the
user or the software originated a connection abort. And in the latter
case, we also provide an error message to present to the user. Result:
in those two example cases (and others), error messages should no
longer go missing.
Implementation note: to avoid the hassle of having the error message
in a SeatPromptResult being a dynamically allocated string (and hence,
every recipient of one must always check whether it's non-NULL and
free it on every exit path, plus being careful about copying the
struct around), I've instead arranged that the structure contains a
function pointer and a couple of parameters, so that the string form
of the message can be constructed on demand. That way, the only users
who need to free it are the ones who actually _asked_ for it in the
first place, which is a much smaller set.
(This is one of the rare occasions that I regret not having C++'s
extra features available in this code base - a unique_ptr or
shared_ptr to a string would have been just the thing here, and the
compiler would have done all the hard work for me of remembering where
to insert the frees!)
The return value of term_data() is used as the return value from the
GUI-terminal versions of the Seat output method, which means backends
will take it to be the amount of standard-output data currently
buffered, and exert back-pressure on the remote peer if it gets too
big (e.g. by ceasing to extend the window in that particular SSH-2
channel).
Historically, as a comment in term_data() explained, we always just
returned 0 from that function, on the basis that we were processing
all the terminal data through our terminal emulation code immediately,
and never retained any of it in the buffer at all. If the terminal
emulation code were to start running slowly, then it would slow down
the _whole_ PuTTY system, due to single-threadedness, and
back-pressure of a sort would be exerted on the remote by it simply
failing to get round to reading from the network socket. But by the
time we got back to the top level of term_data(), we'd have finished
reading all the data we had, so it was still appropriate to return 0.
That comment is still correct if you're thinking about the limiting
factor on terminal data processing being the CPU usage in term_out().
But now that's no longer the whole story, because sometimes we leave
data in term->inbuf without having processed it: during drag-selects
in the terminal window, and (just introduced) while waiting for the
response to a pending window resize request. For both those reasons,
we _don't_ always have a buffer size of zero when we return from
term_data().
So now that hole in our buffer size management is filled in:
term_data() returns the true size of the remaining unprocessed
terminal output, so that back-pressure will be exerted if the terminal
is currently not consuming it. And when processing resumes and we
start to clear our backlog, we call backend_unthrottle to let the
backend know it can relax the back-pressure if necessary.
Previously, the Windows implementation of win_request_resize would
call term_size() to tell the terminal about its new size, _before_
calling SetWindowPos to actually change the window size.
If SetWindowPos ends up not getting the exact window size it asks for,
Windows notifies the application by sending back a WM_SIZE message -
synchronously, by calling back to the window procedure from within
SetWindowPos. So after the first over-optimistic term_size(), the
WM_SIZE handler would trigger a second one, resetting the terminal
again to the _actual_ size.
This was more or less harmless, since current handling of terminal
resizes is such that no terminal data gets too confused: any lines
pushed into the scrollback by the first term_size will be pulled back
out by the second one if needed (or vice versa), and since commit
271de3e4ec, individual termlines are not eagerly truncated by
resizing them twice.
However, it's more work than we really wanted to be doing, and it
seems presumptuous to send term_size() before we know it's right! So
now we send term_size() after SetWindowPos returns, unless it already
got sent by a re-entrant call to the WM_SIZE handler _before_
SetWindowPos returned. That way, the terminal should get exactly one
term_size() call in response to win_request_resize(), whether it got
the size it was expecting or not.
marshal.h now provides a macro put_fmt() which allows you to write
arbitrary printf-formatted data to an arbitrary BinarySink.
We already had this facility for strbufs in particular, in the form of
strbuf_catf(). That was able to take advantage of knowing the inner
structure of a strbuf to minimise memory allocation (it would snprintf
directly into the strbuf's existing buffer if possible). For a general
black-box BinarySink we can't do that, so instead we dupvprintf into a
temporary buffer.
For consistency, I've removed strbuf_catf, and converted all uses of
it into the new put_fmt - and I've also added an extra vtable method
in the BinarySink API, so that put_fmt can still use strbuf_catf's
more efficient memory management when talking to a strbuf, and fall
back to the simpler strategy when that's not available.
(TL;DR: to suppress redundant 'Press Return to begin session' prompts
in between hops of a jump-host configuration, in Plink.)
This new query method directly asks the Seat the question: is the same
stream of input used to provide responses to interactive login
prompts, and the session input provided after login concludes?
It's used to suppress the last-ditch anti-spoofing defence in Plink of
interactively asking 'Access granted. Press Return to begin session',
on the basis that any such spoofing attack works by confusing the user
about what's a legit login prompt before the session begins and what's
sent by the server after the main session begins - so if those two
things take input from different places, the user can't be confused.
This doesn't change the existing behaviour of Plink, which was already
suppressing the antispoof prompt in cases where its standard input was
redirected from something other than a terminal. But previously it was
doing it within the can_set_trust_status() seat query, and I've now
moved it out into a separate query function.
The reason why these need to be separate is for SshProxy, which needs
to give an unusual combination of answers when run inside Plink. For
can_set_trust_status(), it needs to return whatever the parent Seat
returns, so that all the login prompts for a string of proxy
connections in session will be antispoofed the same way. But you only
want that final 'Access granted' prompt to happen _once_, after all
the proxy connection setup phases are done, because up until then
you're still in the safe hands of PuTTY itself presenting an unbroken
sequence of legit login prompts (even if they come from a succession
of different servers). Hence, SshProxy unconditionally returns 'no' to
the query of whether it has a single mixed input stream, because
indeed, it never does - for purposes of session input it behaves like
an always-redirected Plink, no matter what kind of real Seat it ends
up sending its pre-session login prompts to.
Previously, SSH authentication banners were displayed by calling the
ordinary seat_output function, and passing it a special value in the
SeatOutputType enumeration indicating an auth banner.
The awkwardness of this was already showing a little in SshProxy's
implementation of seat_output, where it had to check for that special
value and do totally different things for SEAT_OUTPUT_AUTH_BANNER and
everything else. Further work in that area is going to make it more
and more awkward if I keep the two output systems unified.
So let's split them up. Now, Seat has separate output() and banner()
methods, which each implementation can override differently if it
wants to.
All the 'end user' Seat implementations use the centralised
implementation function nullseat_banner_to_stderr(), which turns
banner text straight back into SEAT_OUTPUT_STDERR and passes it on to
seat_output. So I didn't have to tediously implement a boring version
of this function in GTK, Windows GUI, consoles, file transfer etc.
Previously, checking the host key against the persistent cache managed
by the storage.h API was done as part of the seat_verify_ssh_host_key
method, i.e. separately by each Seat.
Now that check is done by verify_ssh_host_key(), which is a new
function in ssh/common.c that centralises all the parts of host key
checking that don't need an interactive prompt. It subsumes the
previous verify_ssh_manual_host_key() that checked against the Conf,
and it does the check against the storage API that each Seat was
previously doing separately. If it can't confirm or definitively
reject the host key by itself, _then_ it calls out to the Seat, once
an interactive prompt is definitely needed.
The main point of doing this is so that when SshProxy forwards a Seat
call from the proxy SSH connection to the primary Seat, it won't print
an announcement of which connection is involved unless it's actually
going to do something interactive. (Not that we're printing those
announcements _yet_ anyway, but this is a piece of groundwork that
works towards doing so.)
But while I'm at it, I've also taken the opportunity to clean things
up a bit by renaming functions sensibly. Previously we had three very
similarly named functions verify_ssh_manual_host_key(), SeatVtable's
'verify_ssh_host_key' method, and verify_host_key() in storage.h. Now
the Seat method is called 'confirm' rather than 'verify' (since its
job is now always to print an interactive prompt, so it looks more
like the other confirm_foo methods), and the storage.h function is
called check_stored_host_key(), which goes better with store_host_key
and avoids having too many functions with similar names. And the
'manual' function is subsumed into the new centralised code, so
there's now just *one* host key function with 'verify' in the name.
Several functions are reindented in this commit. Best viewed with
whitespace changes ignored.
This is the same as the previous FUNKY_XTERM mode if you don't press
any modifier keys, but now Shift or Ctrl or Alt with function keys
adds an extra bitmap parameter. The bitmaps are the same as the ones
used by the new SHARROW_BITMAP arrow key mode.
As well as affecting the bitmap field in the escape sequence, it was
_also_ having its otherwise standard effect of prefixing Esc to the
whole sequence. It shouldn't do both.
This commit introduces a new config option for how to handle shifted
arrow keys.
In the default mode (SHARROW_APPLICATION), we do what we've always
done: Ctrl flips the arrow keys between sending their most usual
escape sequences (ESC [ A ... ESC [ D) and sending the 'application
cursor keys' sequences (ESC O A ... ESC O D). Whichever of those modes
is currently configured, Ctrl+arrow sends the other one.
In the new mode (SHARROW_BITMAP), application cursor key mode is
unaffected by any shift keys, but the default sequences acquire two
numeric arguments. The first argument is 1 (reflecting the fact that a
shifted arrow key still notionally moves just 1 character cell); the
second is the bitmap (1 for Shift) + (2 for Alt) + (4 for Ctrl),
offset by 1. (Except that if _none_ of those modifiers is pressed,
both numeric arguments are simply omitted.)
The new bitmap mode is what current xterm generates, and also what
Windows ConPTY seems to expect. If you start an ordinary Command
Prompt and launch into WSL, those are the sequences it will generate
for shifted arrow keys; conversely, if you run a Command Prompt within
a ConPTY, then these sequences for Ctrl+arrow will have the effect you
expect in cmd.exe command-line editing (going backward or forward a
word). For that reason, I enable this mode unconditionally when
launching Windows pterm.
While fixing the previous commit I noticed that window titles don't
actually _work_ properly if you change the terminal character set,
because the text accumulated in the OSC string buffer is sent to the
TermWin as raw bytes, with no indication of what character set it
should interpret them as. You might get lucky if you happened to
choose the right charset (in particular, UTF-8 is a common default),
but if you change the charset half way through a run, then there's
certainly no way the frontend will know to interpret two window titles
sent before and after the change in two different charsets.
So, now win_set_title() and win_set_icon_title() both include a
codepage parameter along with the byte string, and it's up to them to
translate the provided window title from that encoding to whatever the
local window system expects to receive.
On Windows, that's wide-string Unicode, so we can just use the
existing dup_mb_to_wc utility function. But in GTK, it's UTF-8, so I
had to write an extra utility function to encode a wide string as
UTF-8.
