Problem:
$NVIM_APPNAME was not respected when searching $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS for
config files. Nvim hardcoded "nvim" when constructing paths like
`$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/nvim/init.lua`, ignoring the $NVIM_APPNAME environment
variable.
This meant that config files like `$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/myapp/init.lua` were
not loaded, even though $NVIM_APPNAME was set to "myapp".
Solution:
Use `get_appname()` instead of hardcoded "nvim" for $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS
paths in `do_system_initialization()` and `do_user_initialization()`.
This makes $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS behave consistently with $XDG_CONFIG_HOME,
which already respected $NVIM_APPNAME.
As documented in `runtime/doc/starting.txt` (L1440-L1441):
"In the help wherever `$XDG_CONFIG_…/nvim` is mentioned it is understood
as `$XDG_CONFIG_…/$NVIM_APPNAME`."
See:
43339dee40/runtime/doc/starting.txt (L1440-L1441)
Relates to #37405
Problem:
`init.lua` files in `$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS` directories were not being sourced during startup, even though the documentation states they should be searched alongside `init.vim`.
See:
e51f5e17e1/runtime/doc/starting.txt (L495-L496)
Solution:
Modify `do_user_initialization()` to search for `init.lua` in each `$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS` directory before falling back to `init.vim`, matching the behavior for `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`. Also show `E5422` error if both `init.lua` and `init.vim` exist in the same directory.
Fixes#37405
Problem: Unexpected behavior after PTY child process fails to chdir(),
as it then thinks it's the parent process.
Solution: Exit the child process instead of returning.
Problem:
Calling os_chdir() to change the child processes' CWD may cause some
unnecessary UI events to be buffered. These UI events don't go anywhere
as execvp() is called before flushing the UI buffer.
Solution:
Use uv_chdir() instead of os_chdir(). Also fix getting error string
incorrectly. Add test for the current behavior.
* test(core/channels_spec): fix flaky test
Always use expect_stdout() to check PTY output.
* test(autocmd/termxx_spec): fix flaky test
Usually the Ctrl-C cancels the following :qa!, but sometimes it doesn't,
and Nvim exits before feed() returns. Instead make sure that :qa! always
reaches Nvim and use expect_exit().
Problem:
Crashed Nvim leaves socket files. Subsequent starts fail with "address already in use".
Solution:
On bind failure, test socket liveness via connect(). Remove if stale, retry bind().
Fixes#36581
Problem:
`t.skip()` adds to the "pending" list. If there is no path to fixing
a pending test, it adds noise to the pending list.
Solution:
Return early instead of using `t.skip()`.
On linux /dev/stdin is defined as a symlink to /proc/self/fd/0
This in turn is defined as a "magic" symlink which is allowed to point
to internal kernel objects which really does not have a file
name. As a glaring inconsistency, fopen("/proc/self/fd/0", "r")
works if fd was originally opened using pipe() but not using
socketpair(). As it happens UV_CREATE_PIPE does not create pipes
but creates socket pairs. These two unfortunate conditions
means that using /dev/stdin and similar does not work in
shell commands in nvim on linux. as a work around, override
libuv's descicion and create an actual pipe pair.
This change is not needed on BSD:s but done unconditionally for simplicity,
except for on windows where it is not done for stdout because of windows
fixes#35984
Problem:
We want to encourage implementing core features in Lua instead of C, but
it's clumsy because:
- Core Lua code (built into `nvim` so it is available even if VIMRUNTIME
is missing/invalid) requires manually updating CMakeLists.txt, or
stuffing it into `_editor.lua`.
- Core Lua modules are not organized similar to C modules, `_editor.lua`
is getting too big.
Solution:
- Introduce `_core/` where core Lua code can live. All Lua modules added
there will automatically be included as bytecode in the `nvim` binary.
- Move these core modules into `_core/*`:
```
_defaults.lua
_editor.lua
_options.lua
_system.lua
shared.lua
```
TODO:
- Move `_extui/ => _core/ui2/`
Problem:
Tests that trigger `os_delay` messages may take 1-3 seconds, wasting
build/CI time, since this serves no purpose in tests.
Solution:
- Introduce `msg_delay` for cases where `os_delay` is being used as
a "UI feature".
- Skip `msg_delay` in tests.
Problem:
MessagePack fixstr format supports string lengths 0-31, but mpack_str()
only used fixstr for lengths < 20. Strings of 20-31 bytes were
incorrectly encoded as str8 (2-byte header) instead of fixstr (1-byte
header).
Solution:
Change the condition from `len < 20` to `len < 32` to match the
MessagePack specification.
This fix affects message timing which exposed a pre-existing race
condition in the channels_spec PTY test. The test now uses a helper
function to accumulate partial PTY reads, making it more robust.
Fixes#32784
Problem:
In socket_connect(), if connecting to the given TCP address times out,
libuv is still trying to connect to the address, and connect_cb may be
called when running the libuv event loop after the `status` variable
referenced by `req.data` goes out of scope.
Solution:
Close the uv_tcp_t handle and wait for connect_cb to be called before
retrying or failing in socket_connect(). This also avoid leaking libuv
handles.
The tests added here only check that the non-timeout case still works,
as checking the timeout case is very hard without modifications to the
code. Removing the first LOOP_PROCESS_EVENT_UNTIL() in socket_connect()
(the one with the timeout) is a way to check that manually.
Also add a comment about the cause of the ASAN error in #34586.
Problem: when create a hidden terminal job with `nvim_buf_call`+
`jobstart(…,{term=true})`, program like `lazygit` cannot figure out the
correct width and height.
Solution: `jobstart(…,{term=true})` accepts `width`/`height`
Problem:
Crash on startup in some situations due to call to `set_curbuf`
with the current value of `cur_buf`.
Solution:
Switch buffers before doing the wipeout of the stdin buffer.
Use cmdline cmds instead of raw buffer pointers to avoid lifetime issues.
Problem:
Running `echo dummy | nvim file1 file2` closes the file1 buffer if
file1 doesn't exist.
Solution:
Logic changed in 43e8ec9 such that stdin buffer may now be created *after*
file args. Handle that case.
Problem:
It's relatively easy to mispress key `a` to (a)llow arbitrary execution
of 'exrc' files. #35050
Solution:
- For exrc files (not directories), remove "allow" menu item.
Require the user to "view" and then explicitly `:trust` the file.
Problem: If user init creates a floating window, startup windows
(e.g. to accomodate arglist files) are no longer created.
Solution: Check that firstwin->w_next is not floating when deciding
whether to make startup windows.
Problem: Non-visible/focusable windows are assigned a window number,
whereas commands that use this window number skip over them.
Solution: Skip over non-visible/focusable windows when computing
the window number, unless it is made the current window
through the API in which case an identifiable window number
is still useful. This also ensures it matches the window
number of the window entered by `<winnr>wincmd w` since
403fcacf.
Problem:
No way for a user to limit 'exrc' search in parent directories (compare
editorconfig.root).
Solution:
A configuration file can unset 'exrc', disabling the search for its
parent directories.
feat(exrc): search exrc in parent directories
Problem:
`.nvim.lua` is only loaded from current directory, which is not flexible
when working from a subfolder of the project.
Solution:
Also search parent directories for configuration file.
Problem:
vim.uv.os_setenv gets "stuck" per-key. #32550
Caused by the internal `envmap` cache. #7920
:echo $FOO <-- prints nothing
:lua vim.uv.os_setenv("FOO", "bar")
:echo $FOO <-- prints bar (as expected)
:lua vim.uv.os_setenv("FOO", "fizz")
:echo $FOO <-- prints bar, still (not expected. Should be "fizz")
:lua vim.uv.os_unsetenv("FOO")
:echo $FOO <-- prints bar, still (not expected. Should be nothing)
:lua vim.uv.os_setenv("FOO", "buzz")
:echo $FOO <-- prints bar, still (not expected. Should be "buzz")
Solution:
- Remove the `envmap` cache.
- Callers to `os_getenv` must free the result.
- Update all call-sites.
- Introduce `os_getenv_noalloc`.
- Extend `os_env_exists()` the `nonempty` parameter.
Problem:
First rtp directory is unpredictable and not in line with XDG
base spec.
Solution:
Use stdpath('data')/spell as directory if 'spellfile' is not set.

Always allow the following four events to be nested, as they may contain
important information, and are triggered on the event loop, which may be
processed by a blocking call inside another autocommand.
- ChanInfo
- ChanOpen
- TermRequest
- TermResponse
There are some other events that are triggered on the event loop, but
they are mostly triggered by user actions in a UI client, and therefore
not very likely to happen during another autocommand, so leave them
unchanged for now.
Problem: Sourcing buffer lines is too complicated.
Solution: Simplify the code. Make it possible to source Vim9 script lines.
(Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#9974)

This commit changes the behavior of sourcing buffer lines to always have
a script ID, although sourcing the same buffer always produces the same
script ID.
vim-patch:9.1.0372: Calling CLEAR_FIELD() on the same struct twice
Problem: Calling CLEAR_FIELD() on the same struct twice.
