Final Release Note

By sharing a cache of the positions within a string where a single character delimiter occurs in a string, $[z]piece() and $[z]length execute slightly faster. Previously, only $piece() built and used this cache.

Summary of Issue

For single character delimiters, $[z]piece builds a cache of positions in the string where the delimiters occur. Two-argument $[z]length() could use this cache to speed up its execution. Alternatively, if $[z]length() builds this cache first $[z]piece() can use it.

Draft release note

By sharing a cache of the positions within a string where a single character delimiter occurs in a string, $[z]piece() and $[z]length execute slightly faster. Previously, only $piece() built and used this cache.

…h an external filter followed by a deactivate and shutdown

Release Note
-------------
The replication source server terminates normally in case it was started with an external filter and later
transitioned from an active to a passive source server before being asked to shut down. Previously, the source
server would terminate abnormally with a SIG-11. (YDB#30)

Test
-----
* New r110/srcsrv_extfilter_sig11 subtest fails reliably without the fixes and passes reliably with the fix.
* E_ALL run many times to ensure no regressions.

README
-------
When an active replication source server is deactivated, it changes mode from ACTIVE to PASSIVE mode. This also
causes it to close external filters (if it had them open) by a call to repl_stop_filter() (in gtmsource.c).

    517                 if (gtmsource_filter & EXTERNAL_FILTER)
    518                         repl_stop_filter();

While it is in passive mode (and waiting to be activated again or asked to shutdown), if it encounters a shutdown
signal, it goes to gtmsource_end() which in turn ends up invoking replstop_filter(). But this function cannot be
invoked more than once.  That is because it sends a message to the other side of the filter (the receiver side)
to stop and then closes the source side of the filter and frees up and nullifies the associated buffers (including
the global variable "extract_buff"). The second invocation of this function ends up with a SIG-11 when trying to
send a message to the other side because "extract_buff" is NULL. Below is the stack trace.

The fix is to turn off the EXTERNAL_FILTER bit in "gtmsource_filter" right after a call to repl_stop_filter().
Since repl_stop_filter() is called from various places in the source server a macro STOP_EXTERNAL_FILTER_IF_NEEDED
was introduced to take care of this.

Although the receiver server does not suffer from this exact issue, it also invokes repl_stop_filter() in various
places and might have a similar issue. So all those callers too were fixed to use this new macro. But they
manipulate the global variable "gtmrecv_filter" (instead of "gtmsource_filter").

Files changes in this commit:

- sr_i386/g_msf.si
  1. Remove SFF_CI flag and resequence flags

- sr_port/alias_funcs.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage & restructure checks due to GTM$CI
     frame no longer being there.

  A review question asked why this change removed an "fp = fp->old-frame_pointer" statement. The answer is that it
  has to do with the elimination of the GTM$CI frame. The frame chain used to look like this:

    CI-base-frame <- GTM$CI <- M routine

  Now it looks like:

    CI-base-frame <- M routine

  In the previous scheme the GTM$CI frame had a "flag value" SFF_CI that indicated the M call was a call-in frame.
  In the new scheme the the base frame has a "type value" with SFT_CI set that indicates this is a call-in frame.
  The removed statement was because once we have noted the frame with the type set for a call-in frame, we had to
  back one more frame to get to its base frame. We no longer have to do that as the frame with the type flag IS
  the base frame.

- sr_port/dollar_zlevel.c
  1. Spruce up some comments to make more sense.

- sr_port/f_text.c
  1. Remove GTM$CI from the list of supressed values (no longer exists).

- sr_port/fgncal.h
  1. Remove declaration for fgncal_lookup.c (no longer used).

- sr_port/fgncal_lookup.c
  1. Deleted - no longer used

- sr_port/gbldefs.c
  1. Remove param_list global (no longer used).

- sr_port/mdb_condition_handler.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  4. Fix loop looking for $ETRAP defined when $ZTRAP set to explicit NULL to stop at frame 0
     instead of frame 1. This allows it to find call-in base frame (now frame 0 instead of 1)
     and also the mumps -run base frame.

- sr_port/mdef.h
  1. Move DBGALS macro here from alias.h so can define DEBUG_ALIAS right here instead of
    requiring it to be a compiler option.

- sr_port/mprof_funcs.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. When running the stack, skip over both TRIGGER and CALLIN base frames.

- sr_port/op_bindparm.c
  1. Minor cosmetic changes and comment clarifications.

- sr_port/op_clralsvals.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Modify the loop to no longer assume a GTM$CI frame when call-ins are in use (no longer
     need to unwind one more frame to the base frame as the flagged frame IS the base frame).

- sr_port/op_halt.c
  2. If call-in mode, do NOT just exit - make sure to return to the call-in caller.

- sr_port/op_unwind.c
  2. Add include of gtmio.h for debugging macro(s).

- sr_port/op_zg1.c
  2. If call-in mode, restart the frame we unwind to. This returns to the caller.

- sr_port/op_zgoto.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.

- sr_port/op_zhalt.c
  1. If call-in mode, do NOT just exit - make sure to return to the call-in caller.

- sr_port/parm_pool.c
  1. Move the push_parm() routine out to sr_port/push_parm_src.h so it can be include in
     two forms:
     a. Form that gets its arguments from the varargs parameter list.
     b. Form that gets its arguments from a parmblk_struct.

- sr_port/stack_frame.h
  1. Remove SFF_CI flag and resequence flags to fill the gap.
  2. Add SFT_CI type id.
  3. Modify SKIP_BASE_FRAME() macro to skip both TRIGGER and CALL-IN base frames.

- sr_port/tp_unwind.c
  1.  Remove #ifdef DEBUG wrapper on debugging includes so they work with a pro build too.

- sr_port/unw_mv_ent.c
  1. Change debugging output to be more clear which path is being taken.

- sr_port/zlput_rname.c
  1. Since SKIP_BASE_FRAME macro now handles call-in base frames and because there's one fewer
     frames than there used to be when GTM$CI was used, reorganize the loop(s) traversing the
     M stack so it is more effectively utilized.

- sr_port/zshow_stack.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Add marker for when call-in base frame shows up in stack.

- sr_unix/ci_ret_code.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Remove the ci_ret_code() and ci_ret_code_exit() routines as not needed.  The ci_ret_code()
     routine did a longjmp() to "return" from the call-in - now replaced by a normal unwind
     procedure with no system calls. The ci_ret_code_exit() routine was set into the call-in
     base-frame and driven when ZGOTO 0 was done. It is removed because it too did a longjmp()
     which we are trying to avoid. That condition is now special cased in ZGOTO.
  3. The ci_ret_code_quit() routine (called to unwind the CALL-IN base frame) had comments
     added to better describe the dependencies

- sr_unix/error_return.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Don't let CALL-IN mode do an EXIT here - force return to caller.

- sr_unix/fgncalsp.h
  1. Get rid of no longer needed pointer fields (now passed directly)

- sr_unix/gtm_startup.c
  1. Add comments on odd happenings.

- sr_unix/gtm_trigger.c
  1. Change an M stack running loop to work without GTM$CI frame.

- sr_unix/gtm_unlink_all.c
  1. Remove check for GTM$CI executable.

- sr_unix/gtmci.c
  1. Removed use of longjmp() to effect return from call-ins.
  2. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  3. Changed parameter handling to eliminate need for GTM$CI to reformat parameters
     appropriately for call-in to op_bindparm in generated M code.
  4. Eliminated need to drive op_extcall/op_extexfun to start M routine. We now call
     push_parm to set up called-routine parameters ourselves.

sr_port/alias.h:
  1. Move DBGALS related macros to mdef.h so we can put the define for DEBUG_ALIAS right there and not
     have to specify a compiler option.

sr_port/alias_funcs.c:
  1. The LVMON* view was overloaded. There was the LVMON command that monitors given/specified local variables
     for when they get changed and there were the LVMON* view commands that help to debug aliases and are active
     only when DEBUG_ALIAS is defined. When this define was enabled, the LVMON command was giving a VIEWAMBIG
     error since the view commands that followed it in the table were LVMON*. This update changes the name of the
     VIEW commands, the related routines and fields to be lvamon* instead of lvmon*. There are no tests of LVMON*
     in the test system due to it requiring a compiler flag to be incorporated so no tests were affected.

-----------------------------------

This project significantly changes how call-ins works. To properly describe it, we need to first describe the
current (original) operation of callins. The following write-up between the ------ lines below describes the
current (r100 and previous versions) call-in operation:

-----------------------------------

How call-ins work:

gtm_init() - Initializes YDB runtime
  1.   - image_type set to GTM_IMAGE
  2.   - invocation mode set to MUMPS_CALLIN
  3.   - init_gtm()
  4.     - gtm_startup()
  5.       - allocate M stack
  6.       - create (dummy) base frame with return addr of gtm_ret_code()
  7.       - jobchild_init()
  8.         - make_cimode() with returned addr of created routine set into "base_addr". This dynamically created routine
               is called GTM$CI.
  9.         - gtm_init_env(base_addr, transfer_addr)
 10.           - base_frame(base_addr transfer_addr) - creates "another" base frame with an initial execution addr
                 of gtm_ret_code() but with rvector set to addr of GTM$CI.
 11.           - new_stack_frame(base_addr, PTEXT_ADR(base_addr), transfer_addr) - creates an executable frame for the
                 GTM$CI routine.
 12.         - Runs SET_CI_ENV() which changes the executable frame created so it has the SF_CI call-in flag set, and
               and changes the base frame's execution address to ci_ret_code_exit(). This base frame is only used when
               there's a ZGOTO 0.

Stack after gtm_init():
  0. BaseFrame (created by gtm_startup()) - probably just to have *something* on the stack in case later initialization fails.
     - This baseframe has a zeroed rvector with an execution address of gtm_ret_code(). There is no previous pointer nor is there
       an unwind frame pointer hiding behind the frame like most base frames have
     - This is the true bottom of the stack in terms of stack frames though an mv_stent is on the stack before this.
     - In practise, we won't see this frame as it isn't used past initialization.
  1. BaseFrame (created by base_frame() as called by gtm_init_env()).
     - rvector is for GTM$CI routine.
     - Execution address is ci_ret_code_exit() (again, only used for ZGOTO 0 aka process exit call from M).
     - The address field on the stack immediately prior to this base frame pointer is an actual unwind address to base frame 0.
  2. Executable frame (created by new_stack_frame() as called by gtm_init_env()).
     - rvector pointer is set to GTM$CI routine
     - Frame is flagged as as call-in

gtm_ci[p]() - Perform call-in:
  1. Executable frame set up in step YottaDB#11 of gtm_init() above has its execution field modified to point to the GTM$CI routine.
  2. Creates parameter block including address of call-in routine and address of either op_extcall() or op_extexfun() which
     will add a new stack frame and have the call-in parameters set up.
  3. Drives dm_start() to invoke the callin. The actual call path goes like this:
       a. dm_start() - establishes mdb_condition_handler() and sets up to drive M code. Invokes top stack frame (GTM$CI).
       b. ci_restart() - this is the first thing done in GTM$CI. This takes the parmblk_struct passed in the global var
          param_list and restructures the inputs for a call to op_extcall() or op_extexfun() and jumps to it.
       c. op_extcall() or op_extexfun() allocate a new stack frame and "return" to it such that the actual routine we are
          calling into is invoked.
       d. When the M code returns, it returns to GTM$CI and runs ci_ret_code() which drives a longjmp back to where
          mdb_condition_handler was setup in dm_start().
       e. dm_start() then returns to gtm_ci[p] for return value processing.

The old parameter flow is:
  1. Parms are passed in as part of the call to gtm_ci[p]().
  2. gtm_ci[p]() reformats the parameters into a "parm_blk".
  3. When ci_restart is driven, parms are converted from parm_blk to register/stack parms.
  4. When op_extexfun() is driven, parms are shifted around for call to push_parm().
  5. When push_parm() is driven from op_extexfun(), register/stack parms are converted to parm_blk parms.
  6. When called-in routine is driven, its parms are picked up from parm_blk by op_bindparm() and bound to local
     vars in the called routine.

Note, the entire purpose of the GTM$CI routine is to create the stack frame the call-in will run in and to set up its
parameters in a fashion that op_bindparm() can read them. Since the op_bindparm of the day expected a varargs list (albeit
in a different fashion from the varargs list passed into gtm_ci[p]()), at that time, the GTM$CI was written to provide the
parameter conversion necessary at the time. The new support described next has made some changes that make this extra
conversion step unnecessary.

-----------------------------------

Following (between the *********** lines) is a description of how call-ins work with this new support in place:

***********************************

How the new call-ins functionality works:

gtm_init() - Initializes YDB runtime
  1.   - image_type set to GTM_IMAGE
  2.   - invocation mode set to MUMPS_CALLIN
  3.   - init_gtm()
  4.     - gtm_startup()
  5.       - allocate M stack
  6.       - create (dummy) base frame with return addr of gtm_ret_code()
  7.       - jobchild_init()
  8.         - base_frame(base_addr transfer_addr) - creates "another" base frame with an initial execution addr
               of gtm_ret_code() but with rvector set to addr of GTM$CI.
  9.         - Runs SET_CI_ENV() which changes the executable frame created so it has the SF_CI call-in flag set, and
               and changes the base frame's execution address to ci_ret_code_exit(). This base frame is only used when
               there's a ZGOTO 0.

Stack after gtm_init():
  0. BaseFrame (created by gtm_startup()) - probably just to have *something* on the stack in case later initialization fails.
     - This baseframe has a zeroed rvector with an execution address of gtm_ret_code(). There is no previous pointer nor is there
       an unwind frame pointer hiding behind the frame like most base frames have
     - This is the true bottom of the stack in terms of stack frames though an mv_stent is on the stack before this.
     - In practise, we won't see this frame as it isn't used past initialization.
  1. BaseFrame (created by base_frame() as called by jobchild_init()).
     - rvector is NULL as this frame is just for return.
     - Execution address is gtm_levl_ret_code() - an entry point in dm_start() used to return without unwinding the frame.
     - The address field on the stack immediately prior to this base frame pointer is an actual unwind address to base frame 0.

gtm_ci[p]() - Perform call-in:
  1. Create new executable frame (new_stack_frame()) for the called M routine to run in.
  2. Creates parameter block which contains a newly constructed lv_val for each incoming parameter.
  3. Cal push_parm_ci() which takes the parameter block built by gtm_ci[p]() and moves the parms to the the parameter area used by
     op_bindparm() which gets called at the top of the called target routine. See parameter flow below.
  4. Drives dm_start() to invoke the callin. Since the M stack frame for the called routine is on top, it gets immediately driven.
  5. When the M code returns, it returns to gtm_levl_ret_code which does a simple return to dm_start() without using longjmp().
  6. dm_start() then returns to gtm_ci[p] for return value processing.

The parameter flow is:
  1. Parms are passed in as part of the call to gtm_ci[p]().
  2. gtm_ci[p]() reformats the parameters into a "parm_blk".
  3. gtm_ci[p]() drives push_parm_ci() to setup the parms for processing by op_bindparm() (moves them into a specific area used
     for buffering parameters).
  4. When called-in routine is driven (op_bindparm() gets driven at all entryrefs with parameter lists defined - even if empty)
     op_bindparm pulls the parms from the parm pool parameter space created by push_parm_ci() and binds them to local vars in
     the called routine then releases the parameter space for reuse.

***********************************

-----------------------------------

Operational changes with this project in the execution of a call-in:

- No longer call make_cimode() to generate the internal GTM$CI routine (step gtm_init YottaDB#8).
- Call base_frame() instead of gtm_init_env() to create ONLY the call-in base frame instead of the base frame plus
  the GTM$CI frame (step gtm_init YottaDB#9).
- No longer setup GTM$CI as part of gtm_ci[p] (gtm_ci[p] YottaDB#1). Instead, we allocate the frame using new_stack_frame()
  directly (gtm_ci[p]() YottaDB#1).
- After the call-in execution frame is created by gtm_ci[p](), a variant of the push_parm routine is called that takes
  the parameters from the parm block that gtm_ci[p] created from the incoming arguments and converts them so they can
  be processed by op_bindparm() which is a routine called by generated code anytime a label with arguments occurs in
  the M source code (gtm_ci[p]() YottaDB#2 and YottaDB#3).
- The execution flow used to look like:
    * C [possibly main] routine
    * call gtm_ci[p]()
      * drive dm_start() to kick off transition to M mode execution
        * drive GTM$CI "build" routine.
          * op_extexfun()
	  * Drive target M routine
	  * Target routine returns to GTM$CI which then drives ci_ret_code (longjmp back to dm_start).
        * return to gtm_ci[p]
    * Return to C caller
- The flow has similar steps but one less layer and returns without the use of a (longjmp) system call:
    * C [possibly main] routine
    * call gtm_ci[p]()
      * drive dm_start() to kick off transition to M mode execution
        * drive target M routine
	* M returns to gtm_levl_ret_code which returns from an M routine without unwinding it which unwinds to dm_start.
        * return to gtm_ci[p]
      * return to C caller.

-----------------------------------

Notes on the removal of GTM$CI.

- A call-in previously did not return "normally" by a return statement that unwound the stack. Instead it invoked
  a system call (longjmp()) to unwind the stack and return to dm_start() which then returned "normally" to the caller.
- A much faster way to return would be to just - return but GTM$CI complicated that. The purpose of the GTM$CI "routine"
  was to set up arguments and call an assembler "glue code" routine to put the parms where they needed to be before
  calling the call-in routine.
- Specifically, GTM$CI was a "constructed" routine (much like GTM$DMOD) in that it was not built from M source but
  was created by the make_mode() routine. Here's the operation:
    a. gtm_ci[p]() builds a parm_blk that contains the name of the glue routine to call (op_extexfun or op_extcall
       depending on whether has args or return value). The parm_blk also contains the parameters and other things
       needed to effect a call.
    b. gtm_ci[p]() drives dm_start() which enters M mode and drives the top routine on the M stack which happens to
       be GTM$CI.
    c. GTM$CI's first function is to drive ci_restart() which is an assembler routine sort of like a specialized
       version of callg() that takes the routine to call (e.g. op_extexfun), the routine/label to call and all the
       input and output parameters for the call-in routine and drives it to create the stack.
    d. When op_extexfun() completes, it drives the top routine on the M stack which is now the call-in frame.
    e. When the callin frame returns to GTM$CI, it drives ci_ret_code() which does a longjmp() to return.
- So GTM$CI's primary purpose was to allocate the stack frame, setup the arguments and drive the glue code that
  made the actual call. This means the arguments were reformatted at least twice. Wanted to avoid that. Also, the
  system call flavor of return is unnecessary. Wanted to avoid that too.
- Two changes allowed us to be rid of the extra GTM$CI overhead:
    1. With the routine gtm_levl_ret_code added to GT.M for triggers, it became possible for a stackframe to return
       without being unwound. We make use of that so we can do the simple unwind of call-in levels.
    2. By changing the push_parm() routine (in parm pool) so we it can pull the arguments for the call-in routine
       directly out of the parm block created by gtm_ci[p] instead of having to push them on the stack and pull them
       back off in the glue routine. This avoided one of the argument restructurings that were happening.
- Because GTM$CI went away, the SFF_CI flag was changed to a type flag instead (since that is what it actually is) and
  it was moved to the base frame itself which is how triggers also does it.

-----------------------------------

User visible changes in this project (for specification in release note):

1. There is no GTM$CI level anymore (no longer needed). So this name no longer shows up in stack listings.
2. Because there is no GTM$CI level anymore, the $STACK and $ZLEVEL SVNs show one less than they used to in a call-in
   environment. These SVNs now mirror the levels one would get by using mumps -run. The first level executing routine
   is $ZLEVEL=1 and $STACK=0 instead of the previous $ZLEVEL=2 and $STACK=1.
3. ZSHOW "S" shows the entire stack. It used to stop at the first call-in frame and not report any further back. A
   stack marker shows where call-in base frames are located in the stack. Where a call-in frame is detected, the text
   "(Call-In Level Entry)" appears in the stack list.
4. When replacing a routine that is active on the stack, we ran the stack backwards to verify the routine was not being used.
   You can still replace an active routine but it is a special case. Unfortunately the loop was again stopping at the first
   call-in frame and not looking further back. If a routine being replaced was on the stack further back than that call-in
   base-frame, ugly stuff was likely to occur when we unwound back to that earlier frame.
5. Similar issue when gtm_trigger() is verifying a trigger is not in use anywhere on the stack.
6. Similar issue when M-Profiling is looking up an entry ref on the stack. Need to figure out what happens when it doesn't
   find it.
7. $VIEW(ENVIRONMENT) description.
8. [Z]HALT in a call-in do not halt but return to the caller as they should but did not previously.

estess added a commit to estess/YottaDB that referenced this issue Oct 12, 2017
…nperf)

Files changes in this commit:

- sr_i386/g_msf.si
  1. Remove SFF_CI flag and resequence flags

- sr_port/alias_funcs.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage & restructure checks due to GTM$CI
     frame no longer being there.

  A review question asked why this change removed an "fp = fp->old-frame_pointer" statement. The answer is that it
  has to do with the elimination of the GTM$CI frame. The frame chain used to look like this:

    CI-base-frame <- GTM$CI <- M routine

  Now it looks like:

    CI-base-frame <- M routine

  In the previous scheme the GTM$CI frame had a "flag value" SFF_CI that indicated the M call was a call-in frame.
  In the new scheme the the base frame has a "type value" with SFT_CI set that indicates this is a call-in frame.
  The removed statement was because once we have noted the frame with the type set for a call-in frame, we had to
  back one more frame to get to its base frame. We no longer have to do that as the frame with the type flag IS
  the base frame.

- sr_port/dollar_zlevel.c
  1. Spruce up some comments to make more sense.

- sr_port/f_text.c
  1. Remove GTM$CI from the list of supressed values (no longer exists).

- sr_port/fgncal.h
  1. Remove declaration for fgncal_lookup.c (no longer used).

- sr_port/fgncal_lookup.c
  1. Deleted - no longer used

- sr_port/gbldefs.c
  1. Remove param_list global (no longer used).

- sr_port/mdb_condition_handler.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  4. Fix loop looking for $ETRAP defined when $ZTRAP set to explicit NULL to stop at frame 0
     instead of frame 1. This allows it to find call-in base frame (now frame 0 instead of 1)
     and also the mumps -run base frame.

- sr_port/mdef.h
  1. Move DBGALS macro here from alias.h so can define DEBUG_ALIAS right here instead of
    requiring it to be a compiler option.

- sr_port/mprof_funcs.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. When running the stack, skip over both TRIGGER and CALLIN base frames.

- sr_port/op_bindparm.c
  1. Minor cosmetic changes and comment clarifications.

- sr_port/op_clralsvals.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Modify the loop to no longer assume a GTM$CI frame when call-ins are in use (no longer
     need to unwind one more frame to the base frame as the flagged frame IS the base frame).

- sr_port/op_halt.c
  2. If call-in mode, do NOT just exit - make sure to return to the call-in caller.

- sr_port/op_unwind.c
  2. Add include of gtmio.h for debugging macro(s).

- sr_port/op_zg1.c
  2. If call-in mode, restart the frame we unwind to. This returns to the caller.

- sr_port/op_zgoto.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.

- sr_port/op_zhalt.c
  1. If call-in mode, do NOT just exit - make sure to return to the call-in caller.

- sr_port/parm_pool.c
  1. Move the push_parm() routine out to sr_port/push_parm_src.h so it can be include in
     two forms:
     a. Form that gets its arguments from the varargs parameter list.
     b. Form that gets its arguments from a parmblk_struct.

- sr_port/stack_frame.h
  1. Remove SFF_CI flag and resequence flags to fill the gap.
  2. Add SFT_CI type id.
  3. Modify SKIP_BASE_FRAME() macro to skip both TRIGGER and CALL-IN base frames.

- sr_port/tp_unwind.c
  1.  Remove #ifdef DEBUG wrapper on debugging includes so they work with a pro build too.

- sr_port/unw_mv_ent.c
  1. Change debugging output to be more clear which path is being taken.

- sr_port/zlput_rname.c
  1. Since SKIP_BASE_FRAME macro now handles call-in base frames and because there's one fewer
     frames than there used to be when GTM$CI was used, reorganize the loop(s) traversing the
     M stack so it is more effectively utilized.

- sr_port/zshow_stack.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Add marker for when call-in base frame shows up in stack.

- sr_unix/ci_ret_code.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Remove the ci_ret_code() and ci_ret_code_exit() routines as not needed.  The ci_ret_code()
     routine did a longjmp() to "return" from the call-in - now replaced by a normal unwind
     procedure with no system calls. The ci_ret_code_exit() routine was set into the call-in
     base-frame and driven when ZGOTO 0 was done. It is removed because it too did a longjmp()
     which we are trying to avoid. That condition is now special cased in ZGOTO.
  3. The ci_ret_code_quit() routine (called to unwind the CALL-IN base frame) had comments
     added to better describe the dependencies

- sr_unix/error_return.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Don't let CALL-IN mode do an EXIT here - force return to caller.

- sr_unix/fgncalsp.h
  1. Get rid of no longer needed pointer fields (now passed directly)

- sr_unix/gtm_startup.c
  1. Add comments on odd happenings.

- sr_unix/gtm_trigger.c
  1. Change an M stack running loop to work without GTM$CI frame.

- sr_unix/gtm_unlink_all.c
  1. Remove check for GTM$CI executable.

- sr_unix/gtmci.c
  1. Removed use of longjmp() to effect return from call-ins.
  2. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  3. Changed parameter handling to eliminate need for GTM$CI to reformat parameters
     appropriately for call-in to op_bindparm in generated M code.
  4. Eliminated need to drive op_extcall/op_extexfun to start M routine. We now call
     push_parm to set up called-routine parameters ourselves.

- sr_unix/gtmci.h
  1. Removed GTM$CI as an intermediate call-in frame.
  2. Modified SET_CI_ENV() macro to setup actual base frame instead of intermediate frame.

- sr_unix/gtmci_isv.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Some comment cleanup.

- sr_unix/gtmci_signals.c
  1. Remove reference to invocation flag MUMPS_GTMCI which was never being set anywhere.

- sr_unix/invocation_mode.h
  1. Remove MUMPS_GTMCI_OFF macro as unused.
  2. Remove MUMPS_GTMCI mode and resequence modes to fill gap (MUMPS_GTMCI never set).

- sr_unix/jobchild_init.c
  1. Don't create GTM$CI anymore (make_cimode() not needed and removed).
  2. Create single base CI frame instead of base + GTM$CI frame.

- sr_unix/make_cimode.c
  1. Removed - no longer needed.

- sr_unix/make_mode.c
  1. Removed all capability to create GTM$CI as this "program" is no longer needed.
  2. Removed all #ifdef of __ia64, __hpux, and _AIX.

- sr_unix/ojchildparms.c
  1. Change the "dummy" base frame generated from GTM$CI frame to GTM$DMOD frame. It doesn't

sr_port/alias.h:
  1. Move DBGALS related macros to mdef.h so we can put the define for DEBUG_ALIAS right there and not
     have to specify a compiler option.

sr_port/alias_funcs.c:
  1. The LVMON* view was overloaded. There was the LVMON command that monitors given/specified local variables
     for when they get changed and there were the LVMON* view commands that help to debug aliases and are active
     only when DEBUG_ALIAS is defined. When this define was enabled, the LVMON command was giving a VIEWAMBIG
     error since the view commands that followed it in the table were LVMON*. This update changes the name of the
     VIEW commands, the related routines and fields to be lvamon* instead of lvmon*. There are no tests of LVMON*
     in the test system due to it requiring a compiler flag to be incorporated so no tests were affected.

-----------------------------------

This project significantly changes how call-ins works. To properly describe it, we need to first describe the
current (original) operation of callins. The following write-up between the ------ lines below describes the
current (r100 and previous versions) call-in operation:

-----------------------------------

How call-ins work:

gtm_init() - Initializes YDB runtime
  1.   - image_type set to GTM_IMAGE
  2.   - invocation mode set to MUMPS_CALLIN
  3.   - init_gtm()
  4.     - gtm_startup()
  5.       - allocate M stack
  6.       - create (dummy) base frame with return addr of gtm_ret_code()
  7.       - jobchild_init()
  8.         - make_cimode() with returned addr of created routine set into "base_addr". This dynamically created routine
               is called GTM$CI.
  9.         - gtm_init_env(base_addr, transfer_addr)
 10.           - base_frame(base_addr transfer_addr) - creates "another" base frame with an initial execution addr
                 of gtm_ret_code() but with rvector set to addr of GTM$CI.
 11.           - new_stack_frame(base_addr, PTEXT_ADR(base_addr), transfer_addr) - creates an executable frame for the
                 GTM$CI routine.
 12.         - Runs SET_CI_ENV() which changes the executable frame created so it has the SF_CI call-in flag set, and
               and changes the base frame's execution address to ci_ret_code_exit(). This base frame is only used when
               there's a ZGOTO 0.

Stack after gtm_init():
  0. BaseFrame (created by gtm_startup()) - probably just to have *something* on the stack in case later initialization fails.
     - This baseframe has a zeroed rvector with an execution address of gtm_ret_code(). There is no previous pointer nor is there
       an unwind frame pointer hiding behind the frame like most base frames have
     - This is the true bottom of the stack in terms of stack frames though an mv_stent is on the stack before this.
     - In practise, we won't see this frame as it isn't used past initialization.
  1. BaseFrame (created by base_frame() as called by gtm_init_env()).
     - rvector is for GTM$CI routine.
     - Execution address is ci_ret_code_exit() (again, only used for ZGOTO 0 aka process exit call from M).
     - The address field on the stack immediately prior to this base frame pointer is an actual unwind address to base frame 0.
  2. Executable frame (created by new_stack_frame() as called by gtm_init_env()).
     - rvector pointer is set to GTM$CI routine
     - Frame is flagged as as call-in

gtm_ci[p]() - Perform call-in:
  1. Executable frame set up in step YottaDB#11 of gtm_init() above has its execution field modified to point to the GTM$CI routine.
  2. Creates parameter block including address of call-in routine and address of either op_extcall() or op_extexfun() which
     will add a new stack frame and have the call-in parameters set up.
  3. Drives dm_start() to invoke the callin. The actual call path goes like this:
       a. dm_start() - establishes mdb_condition_handler() and sets up to drive M code. Invokes top stack frame (GTM$CI).
       b. ci_restart() - this is the first thing done in GTM$CI. This takes the parmblk_struct passed in the global var
          param_list and restructures the inputs for a call to op_extcall() or op_extexfun() and jumps to it.
       c. op_extcall() or op_extexfun() allocate a new stack frame and "return" to it such that the actual routine we are
          calling into is invoked.
       d. When the M code returns, it returns to GTM$CI and runs ci_ret_code() which drives a longjmp back to where
          mdb_condition_handler was setup in dm_start().
       e. dm_start() then returns to gtm_ci[p] for return value processing.

The old parameter flow is:
  1. Parms are passed in as part of the call to gtm_ci[p]().
  2. gtm_ci[p]() reformats the parameters into a "parm_blk".
  3. When ci_restart is driven, parms are converted from parm_blk to register/stack parms.
  4. When op_extexfun() is driven, parms are shifted around for call to push_parm().
  5. When push_parm() is driven from op_extexfun(), register/stack parms are converted to parm_blk parms.
  6. When called-in routine is driven, its parms are picked up from parm_blk by op_bindparm() and bound to local
     vars in the called routine.

Note, the entire purpose of the GTM$CI routine is to create the stack frame the call-in will run in and to set up its
parameters in a fashion that op_bindparm() can read them. Since the op_bindparm of the day expected a varargs list (albeit
in a different fashion from the varargs list passed into gtm_ci[p]()), at that time, the GTM$CI was written to provide the
parameter conversion necessary at the time. The new support described next has made some changes that make this extra
conversion step unnecessary.

-----------------------------------

Following (between the *********** lines) is a description of how call-ins work with this new support in place:

***********************************

How the new call-ins functionality works:

gtm_init() - Initializes YDB runtime
  1.   - image_type set to GTM_IMAGE
  2.   - invocation mode set to MUMPS_CALLIN
  3.   - init_gtm()
  4.     - gtm_startup()
  5.       - allocate M stack
  6.       - create (dummy) base frame with return addr of gtm_ret_code()
  7.       - jobchild_init()
  8.         - base_frame(base_addr transfer_addr) - creates "another" base frame with an initial execution addr
               of gtm_ret_code() but with rvector set to addr of GTM$CI.
  9.         - Runs SET_CI_ENV() which changes the executable frame created so it has the SF_CI call-in flag set, and
               and changes the base frame's execution address to ci_ret_code_exit(). This base frame is only used when
               there's a ZGOTO 0.

Stack after gtm_init():
  0. BaseFrame (created by gtm_startup()) - probably just to have *something* on the stack in case later initialization fails.
     - This baseframe has a zeroed rvector with an execution address of gtm_ret_code(). There is no previous pointer nor is there
       an unwind frame pointer hiding behind the frame like most base frames have
     - This is the true bottom of the stack in terms of stack frames though an mv_stent is on the stack before this.
     - In practise, we won't see this frame as it isn't used past initialization.
  1. BaseFrame (created by base_frame() as called by jobchild_init()).
     - rvector is NULL as this frame is just for return.
     - Execution address is gtm_levl_ret_code() - an entry point in dm_start() used to return without unwinding the frame.
     - The address field on the stack immediately prior to this base frame pointer is an actual unwind address to base frame 0.

gtm_ci[p]() - Perform call-in:
  1. Create new executable frame (new_stack_frame()) for the called M routine to run in.
  2. Creates parameter block which contains a newly constructed lv_val for each incoming parameter.
  3. Cal push_parm_ci() which takes the parameter block built by gtm_ci[p]() and moves the parms to the the parameter area used by
     op_bindparm() which gets called at the top of the called target routine. See parameter flow below.
  4. Drives dm_start() to invoke the callin. Since the M stack frame for the called routine is on top, it gets immediately driven.
  5. When the M code returns, it returns to gtm_levl_ret_code which does a simple return to dm_start() without using longjmp().
  6. dm_start() then returns to gtm_ci[p] for return value processing.

The parameter flow is:
  1. Parms are passed in as part of the call to gtm_ci[p]().
  2. gtm_ci[p]() reformats the parameters into a "parm_blk".
  3. gtm_ci[p]() drives push_parm_ci() to setup the parms for processing by op_bindparm() (moves them into a specific area used
     for buffering parameters).
  4. When called-in routine is driven (op_bindparm() gets driven at all entryrefs with parameter lists defined - even if empty)
     op_bindparm pulls the parms from the parm pool parameter space created by push_parm_ci() and binds them to local vars in
     the called routine then releases the parameter space for reuse.

***********************************

-----------------------------------

Operational changes with this project in the execution of a call-in (note steps are from original code):

- No longer call make_cimode() to generate the internal GTM$CI routine (step gtm_init YottaDB#8).
- Call base_frame() instead of gtm_init_env() to create ONLY the call-in base frame instead of the base frame plus
  the GTM$CI frame (step gtm_init YottaDB#9).
- No longer setup GTM$CI as part of gtm_ci[p](). Instead, we allocate the frame using new_stack_frame() called
  directly (gtm_ci[p]() YottaDB#1).
- After the call-in execution frame is created by gtm_ci[p](), a variant of the push_parm routine is called that takes
  the parameters from the parm block that gtm_ci[p] created from the incoming arguments and converts them so they can
  be processed by op_bindparm() which is a routine called by generated code anytime a label with arguments occurs in
  the M source code (gtm_ci[p]() YottaDB#2 and YottaDB#3).
- The execution flow used to look like:
    * C [possibly main] routine
    * call gtm_ci[p]()
      * drive dm_start() to kick off transition to M mode execution
        * drive GTM$CI "build" routine.
          * op_extexfun()
	  * Drive target M routine
	  * Target routine returns to GTM$CI which then drives ci_ret_code (longjmp back to dm_start).
        * return to gtm_ci[p] via longjmp() in ci_ret_code() which returns to dm_start() and returns from there.
    * Return to C caller
- The flow has similar steps but one less layer and returns without the use of a (longjmp) system call:
    * C [possibly main] routine
    * call gtm_ci[p]()
      * drive dm_start() to kick off transition to M mode execution
        * drive target M routine
	* M returns to gtm_levl_ret_code which returns from an M routine without unwinding it which unwinds to dm_start.
        * return to gtm_ci[p]
      * return to C caller.

-----------------------------------

Notes on the removal of GTM$CI.

- A call-in previously did not return "normally" by a return statement that unwound the stack. Instead it invoked
  a system call (longjmp()) to unwind the stack and return to dm_start() which then returned "normally" to the caller.
- A much faster way to return would be to just - return but GTM$CI complicated that. The purpose of the GTM$CI "routine"
  was to set up arguments and call an assembler "glue code" routine to put the parms where they needed to be before
  calling the call-in routine.
- Specifically, GTM$CI was a "constructed" routine (much like GTM$DMOD) in that it was not built from M source but
  was created by the make_mode() routine. Here's the operation:
    a. gtm_ci[p]() builds a parm_blk that contains the name of the glue routine to call (op_extexfun or op_extcall
       depending on whether has args or return value). The parm_blk also contains the parameters and other things
       needed to effect a call.
    b. gtm_ci[p]() drives dm_start() which enters M mode and drives the top routine on the M stack which happens to
       be GTM$CI.
    c. GTM$CI's first function is to drive ci_restart() which is an assembler routine sort of like a specialized
       version of callg() that takes the routine to call (e.g. op_extexfun), the routine/label to call and all the
       input and output parameters for the call-in routine and drives it to create the stack.
    d. When op_extexfun() completes, it drives the top routine on the M stack which is now the call-in frame.
    e. When the callin frame returns to GTM$CI, it drives ci_ret_code() which does a longjmp() to return.
- So GTM$CI's primary purpose was to allocate the stack frame, setup the arguments and drive the glue code that
  made the actual call. This means the arguments were reformatted at least twice. Wanted to avoid that. Also, the
  system call flavor of return is unnecessary. Wanted to avoid that too.
- Two changes allowed us to be rid of the extra GTM$CI overhead:
    1. With the routine gtm_levl_ret_code added to GT.M for triggers, it became possible for a stackframe to return
       without being unwound. We make use of that so we can do the simple unwind of call-in levels.
    2. By changing the push_parm() routine (in parm pool) so we it can pull the arguments for the call-in routine
       directly out of the parm block created by gtm_ci[p] instead of having to push them on the stack and pull them
       back off in the glue routine. This avoided one of the argument restructurings that were happening.
- Because GTM$CI went away, the SFF_CI flag was changed to a type flag instead (since that is what it actually is) and
  it was moved to the base frame itself which is how triggers also does it.

-----------------------------------

User visible changes in this project (for specification in release note):

1. There is no GTM$CI level anymore (no longer needed). So this name no longer shows up in stack listings.
2. Because there is no GTM$CI level anymore, the $STACK and $ZLEVEL SVNs show one less than they used to in a call-in
   environment. These SVNs now mirror the levels one would get by using mumps -run. The first level executing routine
   is $ZLEVEL=1 and $STACK=0 instead of the previous $ZLEVEL=2 and $STACK=1.
3. ZSHOW "S" shows the entire stack. It used to stop at the first call-in frame and not report any further back. A
   stack marker shows where call-in base frames are located in the stack. Where a call-in frame is detected, the text
   "(Call-In Level Entry)" appears in the stack list.
4. When replacing a routine that is active on the stack, we ran the stack backwards to verify the routine was not being used.
   You can still replace an active routine but it is a special case. Unfortunately the loop was again stopping at the first
   call-in frame and not looking further back. If a routine being replaced was on the stack further back than that call-in
   base-frame, ugly stuff was likely to occur when we unwound back to that earlier frame.
5. Similar issue when M-Profiling is looking up an entry ref on the stack. Need to figure out what happens when it doesn't
   find it.
6. $VIEW(ENVIRONMENT) description.
7. [Z]HALT in a call-in do not halt but return to the caller as they should but did not previously.

Files changes in this commit:

- sr_i386/g_msf.si
  1. Remove SFF_CI flag and resequence flags

- sr_port/alias_funcs.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage & restructure checks due to GTM$CI
     frame no longer being there.

  A review question asked why this change removed an "fp = fp->old-frame_pointer" statement. The answer is that it
  has to do with the elimination of the GTM$CI frame. The frame chain used to look like this:

    CI-base-frame <- GTM$CI <- M routine

  Now it looks like:

    CI-base-frame <- M routine

  In the previous scheme the GTM$CI frame had a "flag value" SFF_CI that indicated the M call was a call-in frame.
  In the new scheme the the base frame has a "type value" with SFT_CI set that indicates this is a call-in frame.
  The removed statement was because once we have noted the frame with the type set for a call-in frame, we had to
  back one more frame to get to its base frame. We no longer have to do that as the frame with the type flag IS
  the base frame.

- sr_port/dollar_zlevel.c
  1. Spruce up some comments to make more sense.

- sr_port/f_text.c
  1. Remove GTM$CI from the list of supressed values (no longer exists).

- sr_port/fgncal.h

  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  4. Fix loop looking for $ETRAP defined when $ZTRAP set to explicit NULL to stop at frame 0
     instead of frame 1. This allows it to find call-in base frame (now frame 0 instead of 1)
     and also the mumps -run base frame.

- sr_port/mdef.h
  1. Move DBGALS macro here from alias.h so can define DEBUG_ALIAS right here instead of
    requiring it to be a compiler option.

- sr_port/mprof_funcs.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. When running the stack, skip over both TRIGGER and CALLIN base frames.

- sr_port/op_bindparm.c
  1. Minor cosmetic changes and comment clarifications.

- sr_port/op_clralsvals.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Modify the loop to no longer assume a GTM$CI frame when call-ins are in use (no longer
     need to unwind one more frame to the base frame as the flagged frame IS the base frame).

- sr_port/op_halt.c
  2. If call-in mode, do NOT just exit - make sure to return to the call-in caller.

- sr_port/op_unwind.c
  2. Add include of gtmio.h for debugging macro(s).

- sr_port/op_zg1.c
  2. If call-in mode, restart the frame we unwind to. This returns to the caller.

- sr_port/op_zgoto.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.

- sr_port/op_zhalt.c
  1. If call-in mode, do NOT just exit - make sure to return to the call-in caller.

- sr_port/parm_pool.c
  1. Move the push_parm() routine out to sr_port/push_parm_src.h so it can be include in
     two forms:
     a. Form that gets its arguments from the varargs parameter list.
     b. Form that gets its arguments from a parmblk_struct.

- sr_port/stack_frame.h
  1. Remove SFF_CI flag and resequence flags to fill the gap.
  2. Add SFT_CI type id.
  3. Modify SKIP_BASE_FRAME() macro to skip both TRIGGER and CALL-IN base frames.

- sr_port/tp_unwind.c
  1.  Remove #ifdef DEBUG wrapper on debugging includes so they work with a pro build too.

- sr_port/unw_mv_ent.c
  1. Change debugging output to be more clear which path is being taken.

- sr_port/zlput_rname.c
  1. Since SKIP_BASE_FRAME macro now handles call-in base frames and because there's one fewer
     frames than there used to be when GTM$CI was used, reorganize the loop(s) traversing the
     M stack so it is more effectively utilized.

- sr_port/zshow_stack.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Add marker for when call-in base frame shows up in stack.

- sr_unix/ci_ret_code.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Remove the ci_ret_code() and ci_ret_code_exit() routines as not needed.  The ci_ret_code()
     routine did a longjmp() to "return" from the call-in - now replaced by a normal unwind
     procedure with no system calls. The ci_ret_code_exit() routine was set into the call-in
     base-frame and driven when ZGOTO 0 was done. It is removed because it too did a longjmp()
     which we are trying to avoid. That condition is now special cased in ZGOTO.
  3. The ci_ret_code_quit() routine (called to unwind the CALL-IN base frame) had comments
     added to better describe the dependencies

- sr_unix/error_return.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Don't let CALL-IN mode do an EXIT here - force return to caller.

- sr_unix/fgncalsp.h
  1. Get rid of no longer needed pointer fields (now passed directly)

- sr_unix/gtm_startup.c
  1. Add comments on odd happenings.

- sr_unix/gtm_trigger.c
  1. Change an M stack running loop to work without GTM$CI frame.

- sr_unix/gtm_unlink_all.c
  1. Remove check for GTM$CI executable.

- sr_unix/gtmci.c
  1. Removed use of longjmp() to effect return from call-ins.
  2. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  3. Changed parameter handling to eliminate need for GTM$CI to reformat parameters
     appropriately for call-in to op_bindparm in generated M code.
  4. Eliminated need to drive op_extcall/op_extexfun to start M routine. We now call
     push_parm to set up called-routine parameters ourselves.

- sr_unix/gtmci.h
  1. Removed GTM$CI as an intermediate call-in frame.
  2. Modified SET_CI_ENV() macro to setup actual base frame instead of intermediate frame.

- sr_unix/gtmci_isv.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Some comment cleanup.

- sr_unix/gtmci_signals.c
  1. Remove reference to invocation flag MUMPS_GTMCI which was never being set anywhere.

- sr_unix/invocation_mode.h
  1. Remove MUMPS_GTMCI_OFF macro as unused.
  2. Remove MUMPS_GTMCI mode and resequence modes to fill gap (MUMPS_GTMCI never set).

- sr_unix/jobchild_init.c
  1. Don't create GTM$CI anymore (make_cimode() not needed and removed).
  2. Create single base CI frame instead of base + GTM$CI frame.

- sr_unix/make_cimode.c
  1. Removed - no longer needed.

- sr_unix/make_mode.c
  1. Removed all capability to create GTM$CI as this "program" is no longer needed.
  2. Removed all #ifdef of __ia64, __hpux, and _AIX.

- sr_unix/ojchildparms.c
  1. Change the "dummy" base frame generated from GTM$CI frame to GTM$DMOD frame. It doesn't
     matter what type of frame this is so long as there is one that can be used to return.

- sr_unix/op_fnfgncal.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.

- sr_unix/relinkctl.c
  1. Change M stack frame loop to compensate for the lack of the GTM$CI frame and which frame
     now has the CI marker (was flag field in GTM$CI frame, now type field in CI base frame).

- sr_unix/rtnhdr.h
  1. Modify CLEANUP_COPIED_RECURSIVE_RTN() macro such that a null routine header address in a
     base frame doesn't screw things up and cause that NULL to be dereferenced.

- sr_x86_64/ci_restart.s
  1. Remove this parameter massaging routine as being unnecessary anymore.

- sr_x86_64/g_msf.si
  1. Remove SFF_CI (no longer used) and SFF_ETRAP_ERR (still defined but not used in assemble).

  1. Move DBGALS related macros to mdef.h so we can put the define for DEBUG_ALIAS right there and not
     have to specify a compiler option.

sr_port/alias_funcs.c:
  1. The LVMON* view was overloaded. There was the LVMON command that monitors given/specified local variables
     for when they get changed and there were the LVMON* view commands that help to debug aliases and are active
     only when DEBUG_ALIAS is defined. When this define was enabled, the LVMON command was giving a VIEWAMBIG
     error since the view commands that followed it in the table were LVMON*. This update changes the name of the
     VIEW commands, the related routines and fields to be lvamon* instead of lvmon*. There are no tests of LVMON*
     in the test system due to it requiring a compiler flag to be incorporated so no tests were affected.

sr_port/gbldefs.c:
sr_port/lv_val.h:
sr_port/op_view.h
sr_port/tp_unwind.c
sr_port/viewtab.h
  1. Rename lvmon* for lvamon*.

sr_port/mdef.h
  1. Comment out define for DEBUG_ALIAS

-----------------------------------

This project significantly changes how call-ins works. To properly describe it, we need to first describe the
current (original) operation of callins. The following write-up between the ------ lines below describes the
current (r100 and previous versions) call-in operation:

-----------------------------------

How call-ins work:

gtm_init() - Initializes YDB runtime
  1.   - image_type set to GTM_IMAGE
  2.   - invocation mode set to MUMPS_CALLIN
  3.   - init_gtm()
  4.     - gtm_startup()
  5.       - allocate M stack
  6.       - create (dummy) base frame with return addr of gtm_ret_code()
  7.       - jobchild_init()
  8.         - make_cimode() with returned addr of created routine set into "base_addr". This dynamically created routine
               is called GTM$CI.
  9.         - gtm_init_env(base_addr, transfer_addr)
 10.           - base_frame(base_addr transfer_addr) - creates "another" base frame with an initial execution addr
                 of gtm_ret_code() but with rvector set to addr of GTM$CI.
 11.           - new_stack_frame(base_addr, PTEXT_ADR(base_addr), transfer_addr) - creates an executable frame for the
                 GTM$CI routine.
 12.         - Runs SET_CI_ENV() which changes the executable frame created so it has the SF_CI call-in flag set, and
               and changes the base frame's execution address to ci_ret_code_exit(). This base frame is only used when
               there's a ZGOTO 0.

Stack after gtm_init():
  0. BaseFrame (created by gtm_startup()) - probably just to have *something* on the stack in case later initialization fails.
     - This baseframe has a zeroed rvector with an execution address of gtm_ret_code(). There is no previous pointer nor is there
       an unwind frame pointer hiding behind the frame like most base frames have
     - This is the true bottom of the stack in terms of stack frames though an mv_stent is on the stack before this.
     - In practise, we won't see this frame as it isn't used past initialization.
  1. BaseFrame (created by base_frame() as called by gtm_init_env()).
     - rvector is for GTM$CI routine.
     - Execution address is ci_ret_code_exit() (again, only used for ZGOTO 0 aka process exit call from M).
     - The address field on the stack immediately prior to this base frame pointer is an actual unwind address to base frame 0.
  2. Executable frame (created by new_stack_frame() as called by gtm_init_env()).
     - rvector pointer is set to GTM$CI routine
     - Frame is flagged as as call-in

gtm_ci[p]() - Perform call-in:
  1. Executable frame set up in step YottaDB#11 of gtm_init() above has its execution field modified to point to the GTM$CI routine.
  2. Creates parameter block including address of call-in routine and address of either op_extcall() or op_extexfun() which
     will add a new stack frame and have the call-in parameters set up.
  3. Drives dm_start() to invoke the callin. The actual call path goes like this:
       a. dm_start() - establishes mdb_condition_handler() and sets up to drive M code. Invokes top stack frame (GTM$CI).
       b. ci_restart() - this is the first thing done in GTM$CI. This takes the parmblk_struct passed in the global var
          param_list and restructures the inputs for a call to op_extcall() or op_extexfun() and jumps to it.
       c. op_extcall() or op_extexfun() allocate a new stack frame and "return" to it such that the actual routine we are
          calling into is invoked.
       d. When the M code returns, it returns to GTM$CI and runs ci_ret_code() which drives a longjmp back to where
          mdb_condition_handler was setup in dm_start().
       e. dm_start() then returns to gtm_ci[p] for return value processing.

The old parameter flow is:
  1. Parms are passed in as part of the call to gtm_ci[p]().
  2. gtm_ci[p]() reformats the parameters into a "parm_blk".
  3. When ci_restart is driven, parms are converted from parm_blk to register/stack parms.
  4. When op_extexfun() is driven, parms are shifted around for call to push_parm().
  5. When push_parm() is driven from op_extexfun(), register/stack parms are converted to parm_blk parms.
  6. When called-in routine is driven, its parms are picked up from parm_blk by op_bindparm() and bound to local
     vars in the called routine.

Note, the entire purpose of the GTM$CI routine is to create the stack frame the call-in will run in and to set up its
parameters in a fashion that op_bindparm() can read them. Since the op_bindparm of the day expected a varargs list (albeit
in a different fashion from the varargs list passed into gtm_ci[p]()), at that time, the GTM$CI was written to provide the
parameter conversion necessary at the time. The new support described next has made some changes that make this extra
conversion step unnecessary.

-----------------------------------

Following (between the *********** lines) is a description of how call-ins work with this new support in place:

***********************************

How the new call-ins functionality works:

gtm_init() - Initializes YDB runtime
  1.   - image_type set to GTM_IMAGE
  2.   - invocation mode set to MUMPS_CALLIN
  3.   - init_gtm()
  4.     - gtm_startup()
  5.       - allocate M stack
  6.       - create (dummy) base frame with return addr of gtm_ret_code()
  7.       - jobchild_init()
  8.         - base_frame(base_addr transfer_addr) - creates "another" base frame with an initial execution addr
               of gtm_ret_code() but with rvector set to addr of GTM$CI.
  9.         - Runs SET_CI_ENV() which changes the executable frame created so it has the SF_CI call-in flag set, and
               and changes the base frame's execution address to ci_ret_code_exit(). This base frame is only used when
               there's a ZGOTO 0.

Stack after gtm_init():
  0. BaseFrame (created by gtm_startup()) - probably just to have *something* on the stack in case later initialization fails.
     - This baseframe has a zeroed rvector with an execution address of gtm_ret_code(). There is no previous pointer nor is there
       an unwind frame pointer hiding behind the frame like most base frames have
     - This is the true bottom of the stack in terms of stack frames though an mv_stent is on the stack before this.
     - In practise, we won't see this frame as it isn't used past initialization.
  1. BaseFrame (created by base_frame() as called by jobchild_init()).
     - rvector is NULL as this frame is just for return.
     - Execution address is gtm_levl_ret_code() - an entry point in dm_start() used to return without unwinding the frame.
     - The address field on the stack immediately prior to this base frame pointer is an actual unwind address to base frame 0.

gtm_ci[p]() - Perform call-in:
  1. Create new executable frame (new_stack_frame()) for the called M routine to run in.
  2. Creates parameter block which contains a newly constructed lv_val for each incoming parameter.
  3. Cal push_parm_ci() which takes the parameter block built by gtm_ci[p]() and moves the parms to the the parameter area used by
     op_bindparm() which gets called at the top of the called target routine. See parameter flow below.
  4. Drives dm_start() to invoke the callin. Since the M stack frame for the called routine is on top, it gets immediately driven.
  5. When the M code returns, it returns to gtm_levl_ret_code which does a simple return to dm_start() without using longjmp().
  6. dm_start() then returns to gtm_ci[p] for return value processing.

The parameter flow is:
  1. Parms are passed in as part of the call to gtm_ci[p]().
  2. gtm_ci[p]() reformats the parameters into a "parm_blk".
  3. gtm_ci[p]() drives push_parm_ci() to setup the parms for processing by op_bindparm() (moves them into a specific area used
     for buffering parameters).
  4. When called-in routine is driven (op_bindparm() gets driven at all entryrefs with parameter lists defined - even if empty)
     op_bindparm pulls the parms from the parm pool parameter space created by push_parm_ci() and binds them to local vars in
     the called routine then releases the parameter space for reuse.

***********************************

-----------------------------------

Operational changes with this project in the execution of a call-in (note steps are from original code):

- No longer call make_cimode() to generate the internal GTM$CI routine (step gtm_init YottaDB#8).
- Call base_frame() instead of gtm_init_env() to create ONLY the call-in base frame instead of the base frame plus
  the GTM$CI frame (step gtm_init YottaDB#9).
- No longer setup GTM$CI as part of gtm_ci[p](). Instead, we allocate the frame using new_stack_frame() called
  directly (gtm_ci[p]() YottaDB#1).
- After the call-in execution frame is created by gtm_ci[p](), a variant of the push_parm routine is called that takes
  the parameters from the parm block that gtm_ci[p] created from the incoming arguments and converts them so they can
  be processed by op_bindparm() which is a routine called by generated code anytime a label with arguments occurs in
  the M source code (gtm_ci[p]() YottaDB#2 and YottaDB#3).
- The execution flow used to look like:
    * C [possibly main] routine
    * call gtm_ci[p]()
      * drive dm_start() to kick off transition to M mode execution
        * drive GTM$CI "build" routine.
          * op_extexfun()
	  * Drive target M routine
	  * Target routine returns to GTM$CI which then drives ci_ret_code (longjmp back to dm_start).
        * return to gtm_ci[p] via longjmp() in ci_ret_code() which returns to dm_start() and returns from there.
    * Return to C caller
- The flow has similar steps but one less layer and returns without the use of a (longjmp) system call:
    * C [possibly main] routine
    * call gtm_ci[p]()
      * drive dm_start() to kick off transition to M mode execution
        * drive target M routine
	* M returns to gtm_levl_ret_code which returns from an M routine without unwinding it which unwinds to dm_start.
        * return to gtm_ci[p]
      * return to C caller.

-----------------------------------

Notes on the removal of GTM$CI.

- A call-in previously did not return "normally" by a return statement that unwound the stack. Instead it invoked
  a system call (longjmp()) to unwind the stack and return to dm_start() which then returned "normally" to the caller.
- A much faster way to return would be to just - return but GTM$CI complicated that. The purpose of the GTM$CI "routine"
  was to set up arguments and call an assembler "glue code" routine to put the parms where they needed to be before
  calling the call-in routine.
- Specifically, GTM$CI was a "constructed" routine (much like GTM$DMOD) in that it was not built from M source but
  was created by the make_mode() routine. Here's the operation:
    a. gtm_ci[p]() builds a parm_blk that contains the name of the glue routine to call (op_extexfun or op_extcall
       depending on whether has args or return value). The parm_blk also contains the parameters and other things
       needed to effect a call.
    b. gtm_ci[p]() drives dm_start() which enters M mode and drives the top routine on the M stack which happens to
       be GTM$CI.
    c. GTM$CI's first function is to drive ci_restart() which is an assembler routine sort of like a specialized
       version of callg() that takes the routine to call (e.g. op_extexfun), the routine/label to call and all the
       input and output parameters for the call-in routine and drives it to create the stack.
    d. When op_extexfun() completes, it drives the top routine on the M stack which is now the call-in frame.
    e. When the callin frame returns to GTM$CI, it drives ci_ret_code() which does a longjmp() to return.
- So GTM$CI's primary purpose was to allocate the stack frame, setup the arguments and drive the glue code that
  made the actual call. This means the arguments were reformatted at least twice. Wanted to avoid that. Also, the
  system call flavor of return is unnecessary. Wanted to avoid that too.
- Two changes allowed us to be rid of the extra GTM$CI overhead:
    1. With the routine gtm_levl_ret_code added to GT.M for triggers, it became possible for a stackframe to return
       without being unwound. We make use of that so we can do the simple unwind of call-in levels.
    2. By changing the push_parm() routine (in parm pool) so we it can pull the arguments for the call-in routine
       directly out of the parm block created by gtm_ci[p] instead of having to push them on the stack and pull them
       back off in the glue routine. This avoided one of the argument restructurings that were happening.
- Because GTM$CI went away, the SFF_CI flag was changed to a type flag instead (since that is what it actually is) and
  it was moved to the base frame itself which is how triggers also does it.

-----------------------------------

User visible changes in this project (for specification in release note):

1. There is no GTM$CI level anymore (no longer needed). So this name no longer shows up in stack listings.
2. Because there is no GTM$CI level anymore, the $STACK and $ZLEVEL SVNs show one less than they used to in a call-in
   environment. These SVNs now mirror the levels one would get by using mumps -run. The first level executing routine
   is $ZLEVEL=1 and $STACK=0 instead of the previous $ZLEVEL=2 and $STACK=1.
3. ZSHOW "S" shows the entire stack. It used to stop at the first call-in frame and not report any further back. A
   stack marker shows where call-in base frames are located in the stack. Where a call-in frame is detected, the text
   "(Call-In Level Entry)" appears in the stack list.
4. When replacing a routine that is active on the stack, we ran the stack backwards to verify the routine was not being used.
   You can still replace an active routine but it is a special case. Unfortunately the loop was again stopping at the first
   call-in frame and not looking further back. If a routine being replaced was on the stack further back than that call-in
   base-frame, ugly stuff was likely to occur when we unwound back to that earlier frame.
5. Similar issue when M-Profiling is looking up an entry ref on the stack. Need to figure out what happens when it doesn't
   find it.
6. $VIEW(ENVIRONMENT) description.
7. [Z]HALT in a call-in do not halt but return to the caller as they should but did not previously.

Files changes in this commit:

- sr_i386/g_msf.si
  1. Remove SFF_CI flag and resequence flags

- sr_port/alias_funcs.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage & restructure checks due to GTM$CI
     frame no longer being there.

  A review question asked why this change removed an "fp = fp->old-frame_pointer" statement. The answer is that it
  has to do with the elimination of the GTM$CI frame. The frame chain used to look like this:

    CI-base-frame <- GTM$CI <- M routine

  Now it looks like:

    CI-base-frame <- M routine

  In the previous scheme the GTM$CI frame had a "flag value" SFF_CI that indicated the M call was a call-in frame.
  In the new scheme the the base frame has a "type value" with SFT_CI set that indicates this is a call-in frame.
  The removed statement was because once we have noted the frame with the type set for a call-in frame, we had to
  back one more frame to get to its base frame. We no longer have to do that as the frame with the type flag IS
  the base frame.

- sr_port/dollar_zlevel.c
  1. Spruce up some comments to make more sense.

- sr_port/f_text.c
  1. Remove GTM$CI from the list of supressed values (no longer exists).

- sr_port/fgncal.h
  1. Remove declaration for fgncal_lookup.c (no longer used).

- sr_port/fgncal_lookup.c
  1. Deleted - no longer used

- sr_port/gbldefs.c

  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  4. Fix loop looking for $ETRAP defined when $ZTRAP set to explicit NULL to stop at frame 0
     instead of frame 1. This allows it to find call-in base frame (now frame 0 instead of 1)
     and also the mumps -run base frame.

- sr_port/mdef.h
  1. Move DBGALS macro here from alias.h so can define DEBUG_ALIAS right here instead of
    requiring it to be a compiler option.

- sr_port/mprof_funcs.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. When running the stack, skip over both TRIGGER and CALLIN base frames.

- sr_port/op_bindparm.c
  1. Minor cosmetic changes and comment clarifications.

- sr_port/op_clralsvals.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Modify the loop to no longer assume a GTM$CI frame when call-ins are in use (no longer
     need to unwind one more frame to the base frame as the flagged frame IS the base frame).

- sr_port/op_halt.c
  2. If call-in mode, do NOT just exit - make sure to return to the call-in caller.

- sr_port/op_unwind.c
  2. Add include of gtmio.h for debugging macro(s).

- sr_port/op_zg1.c
  2. If call-in mode, restart the frame we unwind to. This returns to the caller.

- sr_port/op_zgoto.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.

- sr_port/op_zhalt.c
  1. If call-in mode, do NOT just exit - make sure to return to the call-in caller.

- sr_port/parm_pool.c
  1. Move the push_parm() routine out to sr_port/push_parm_src.h so it can be include in
     two forms:
     a. Form that gets its arguments from the varargs parameter list.
     b. Form that gets its arguments from a parmblk_struct.

- sr_port/stack_frame.h
  1. Remove SFF_CI flag and resequence flags to fill the gap.
  2. Add SFT_CI type id.
  3. Modify SKIP_BASE_FRAME() macro to skip both TRIGGER and CALL-IN base frames.

- sr_port/tp_unwind.c
  1.  Remove #ifdef DEBUG wrapper on debugging includes so they work with a pro build too.

- sr_port/unw_mv_ent.c
  1. Change debugging output to be more clear which path is being taken.

- sr_port/zlput_rname.c
  1. Since SKIP_BASE_FRAME macro now handles call-in base frames and because there's one fewer
     frames than there used to be when GTM$CI was used, reorganize the loop(s) traversing the
     M stack so it is more effectively utilized.

- sr_port/zshow_stack.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Add marker for when call-in base frame shows up in stack.

- sr_unix/ci_ret_code.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Remove the ci_ret_code() and ci_ret_code_exit() routines as not needed.  The ci_ret_code()
     routine did a longjmp() to "return" from the call-in - now replaced by a normal unwind
     procedure with no system calls. The ci_ret_code_exit() routine was set into the call-in
     base-frame and driven when ZGOTO 0 was done. It is removed because it too did a longjmp()
     which we are trying to avoid. That condition is now special cased in ZGOTO.
  3. The ci_ret_code_quit() routine (called to unwind the CALL-IN base frame) had comments
     added to better describe the dependencies

- sr_unix/error_return.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Don't let CALL-IN mode do an EXIT here - force return to caller.

- sr_unix/fgncalsp.h
  1. Get rid of no longer needed pointer fields (now passed directly)

- sr_unix/gtm_startup.c
  1. Add comments on odd happenings.

- sr_unix/gtm_trigger.c
  1. Change an M stack running loop to work without GTM$CI frame.

- sr_unix/gtm_unlink_all.c
  1. Remove check for GTM$CI executable.

- sr_unix/gtmci.c
  1. Removed use of longjmp() to effect return from call-ins.
  2. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  3. Changed parameter handling to eliminate need for GTM$CI to reformat parameters
     appropriately for call-in to op_bindparm in generated M code.
  4. Eliminated need to drive op_extcall/op_extexfun to start M routine. We now call
     push_parm to set up called-routine parameters ourselves.

- sr_unix/gtmci.h
  1. Removed GTM$CI as an intermediate call-in frame.
  2. Modified SET_CI_ENV() macro to setup actual base frame instead of intermediate frame.

- sr_unix/gtmci_isv.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Some comment cleanup.

- sr_unix/gtmci_signals.c
  1. Remove reference to invocation flag MUMPS_GTMCI which was never being set anywhere.

- sr_unix/invocation_mode.h
  1. Remove MUMPS_GTMCI_OFF macro as unused.
  2. Remove MUMPS_GTMCI mode and resequence modes to fill gap (MUMPS_GTMCI never set).

- sr_unix/jobchild_init.c
  1. Don't create GTM$CI anymore (make_cimode() not needed and removed).
  2. Create single base CI frame instead of base + GTM$CI frame.

- sr_unix/make_cimode.c
  1. Removed - no longer needed.

- sr_unix/make_mode.c
  1. Removed all capability to create GTM$CI as this "program" is no longer needed.
  2. Removed all #ifdef of __ia64, __hpux, and _AIX.

- sr_unix/ojchildparms.c
  1. Change the "dummy" base frame generated from GTM$CI frame to GTM$DMOD frame. It doesn't
     matter what type of frame this is so long as there is one that can be used to return.

- sr_unix/op_fnfgncal.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.

- sr_unix/relinkctl.c
  1. Change M stack frame loop to compensate for the lack of the GTM$CI frame and which frame
     now has the CI marker (was flag field in GTM$CI frame, now type field in CI base frame).

- sr_unix/rtnhdr.h
  1. Modify CLEANUP_COPIED_RECURSIVE_RTN() macro such that a null routine header address in a
     base frame doesn't screw things up and cause that NULL to be dereferenced.

- sr_x86_64/ci_restart.s
  1. Remove this parameter massaging routine as being unnecessary anymore.

- sr_x86_64/g_msf.si
  1. Remove SFF_CI (no longer used) and SFF_ETRAP_ERR (still defined but not used in assemble).

sr_port/op_fnview.c
  1. Add "ENVIRONMENT" returns possible environment tokens "MUMPS", "MUPIP", "CALLIN", or "TRIGGER".
     Multiple comma separated tokens may be returned.

sr_port/viewtab.h
  1. Add "ENVIRONMENT" option.
  2. Remove non-UNIX environment #ifdef code.

- sr_linux/release_name.h - Change to R1.10

sr_port/alias.h:
  1. Move DBGALS related macros to mdef.h so we can put the define for DEBUG_ALIAS right there and not
     have to specify a compiler option.

sr_port/alias_funcs.c:
  1. The LVMON* view was overloaded. There was the LVMON command that monitors given/specified local variables
     for when they get changed and there were the LVMON* view commands that help to debug aliases and are active
     only when DEBUG_ALIAS is defined. When this define was enabled, the LVMON command was giving a VIEWAMBIG
     error since the view commands that followed it in the table were LVMON*. This update changes the name of the
     VIEW commands, the related routines and fields to be lvamon* instead of lvmon*. There are no tests of LVMON*
     in the test system due to it requiring a compiler flag to be incorporated so no tests were affected.

sr_port/gbldefs.c:
sr_port/lv_val.h:
sr_port/op_view.h
sr_port/tp_unwind.c
sr_port/viewtab.h
  1. Rename lvmon* for lvamon*.

sr_port/mdef.h
  1. Comment out define for DEBUG_ALIAS

-----------------------------------

This project significantly changes how call-ins works. To properly describe it, we need to first describe the
current (original) operation of callins. The following write-up between the ------ lines below describes the
current (r100 and previous versions) call-in operation:

-----------------------------------

How call-ins work:

gtm_init() - Initializes YDB runtime
  1.   - image_type set to GTM_IMAGE
  2.   - invocation mode set to MUMPS_CALLIN
  3.   - init_gtm()
  4.     - gtm_startup()
  5.       - allocate M stack
  6.       - create (dummy) base frame with return addr of gtm_ret_code()
  7.       - jobchild_init()
  8.         - make_cimode() with returned addr of created routine set into "base_addr". This dynamically created routine
               is called GTM$CI.
  9.         - gtm_init_env(base_addr, transfer_addr)
 10.           - base_frame(base_addr transfer_addr) - creates "another" base frame with an initial execution addr
                 of gtm_ret_code() but with rvector set to addr of GTM$CI.
 11.           - new_stack_frame(base_addr, PTEXT_ADR(base_addr), transfer_addr) - creates an executable frame for the
                 GTM$CI routine.
 12.         - Runs SET_CI_ENV() which changes the executable frame created so it has the SF_CI call-in flag set, and
               and changes the base frame's execution address to ci_ret_code_exit(). This base frame is only used when
               there's a ZGOTO 0.

Stack after gtm_init():
  0. BaseFrame (created by gtm_startup()) - probably just to have *something* on the stack in case later initialization fails.
     - This baseframe has a zeroed rvector with an execution address of gtm_ret_code(). There is no previous pointer nor is there
       an unwind frame pointer hiding behind the frame like most base frames have
     - This is the true bottom of the stack in terms of stack frames though an mv_stent is on the stack before this.
     - In practise, we won't see this frame as it isn't used past initialization.
  1. BaseFrame (created by base_frame() as called by gtm_init_env()).
     - rvector is for GTM$CI routine.
     - Execution address is ci_ret_code_exit() (again, only used for ZGOTO 0 aka process exit call from M).
     - The address field on the stack immediately prior to this base frame pointer is an actual unwind address to base frame 0.
  2. Executable frame (created by new_stack_frame() as called by gtm_init_env()).
     - rvector pointer is set to GTM$CI routine
     - Frame is flagged as as call-in

gtm_ci[p]() - Perform call-in:
  1. Executable frame set up in step YottaDB#11 of gtm_init() above has its execution field modified to point to the GTM$CI routine.
  2. Creates parameter block including address of call-in routine and address of either op_extcall() or op_extexfun() which
     will add a new stack frame and have the call-in parameters set up.
  3. Drives dm_start() to invoke the callin. The actual call path goes like this:
       a. dm_start() - establishes mdb_condition_handler() and sets up to drive M code. Invokes top stack frame (GTM$CI).
       b. ci_restart() - this is the first thing done in GTM$CI. This takes the parmblk_struct passed in the global var
          param_list and restructures the inputs for a call to op_extcall() or op_extexfun() and jumps to it.
       c. op_extcall() or op_extexfun() allocate a new stack frame and "return" to it such that the actual routine we are
          calling into is invoked.
       d. When the M code returns, it returns to GTM$CI and runs ci_ret_code() which drives a longjmp back to where
          mdb_condition_handler was setup in dm_start().
       e. dm_start() then returns to gtm_ci[p] for return value processing.

The old parameter flow is:
  1. Parms are passed in as part of the call to gtm_ci[p]().
  2. gtm_ci[p]() reformats the parameters into a "parm_blk".
  3. When ci_restart is driven, parms are converted from parm_blk to register/stack parms.
  4. When op_extexfun() is driven, parms are shifted around for call to push_parm().
  5. When push_parm() is driven from op_extexfun(), register/stack parms are converted to parm_blk parms.
  6. When called-in routine is driven, its parms are picked up from parm_blk by op_bindparm() and bound to local
     vars in the called routine.

Note, the entire purpose of the GTM$CI routine is to create the stack frame the call-in will run in and to set up its
parameters in a fashion that op_bindparm() can read them. Since the op_bindparm of the day expected a varargs list (albeit
in a different fashion from the varargs list passed into gtm_ci[p]()), at that time, the GTM$CI was written to provide the
parameter conversion necessary at the time. The new support described next has made some changes that make this extra
conversion step unnecessary.

-----------------------------------

Following (between the *********** lines) is a description of how call-ins work with this new support in place:

***********************************

How the new call-ins functionality works:

gtm_init() - Initializes YDB runtime
  1.   - image_type set to GTM_IMAGE
  2.   - invocation mode set to MUMPS_CALLIN
  3.   - init_gtm()
  4.     - gtm_startup()
  5.       - allocate M stack
  6.       - create (dummy) base frame with return addr of gtm_ret_code()
  7.       - jobchild_init()
  8.         - base_frame(base_addr transfer_addr) - creates "another" base frame with an initial execution addr
               of gtm_ret_code() but with rvector set to addr of GTM$CI.
  9.         - Runs SET_CI_ENV() which changes the executable frame created so it has the SF_CI call-in flag set, and
               and changes the base frame's execution address to ci_ret_code_exit(). This base frame is only used when
               there's a ZGOTO 0.

Stack after gtm_init():
  0. BaseFrame (created by gtm_startup()) - probably just to have *something* on the stack in case later initialization fails.
     - This baseframe has a zeroed rvector with an execution address of gtm_ret_code(). There is no previous pointer nor is there
       an unwind frame pointer hiding behind the frame like most base frames have
     - This is the true bottom of the stack in terms of stack frames though an mv_stent is on the stack before this.
     - In practise, we won't see this frame as it isn't used past initialization.
  1. BaseFrame (created by base_frame() as called by jobchild_init()).
     - rvector is NULL as this frame is just for return.
     - Execution address is gtm_levl_ret_code() - an entry point in dm_start() used to return without unwinding the frame.
     - The address field on the stack immediately prior to this base frame pointer is an actual unwind address to base frame 0.

gtm_ci[p]() - Perform call-in:
  1. Create new executable frame (new_stack_frame()) for the called M routine to run in.
  2. Creates parameter block which contains a newly constructed lv_val for each incoming parameter.
  3. Cal push_parm_ci() which takes the parameter block built by gtm_ci[p]() and moves the parms to the the parameter area used by
     op_bindparm() which gets called at the top of the called target routine. See parameter flow below.
  4. Drives dm_start() to invoke the callin. Since the M stack frame for the called routine is on top, it gets immediately driven.
  5. When the M code returns, it returns to gtm_levl_ret_code which does a simple return to dm_start() without using longjmp().
  6. dm_start() then returns to gtm_ci[p] for return value processing.

The parameter flow is:
  1. Parms are passed in as part of the call to gtm_ci[p]().
  2. gtm_ci[p]() reformats the parameters into a "parm_blk".
  3. gtm_ci[p]() drives push_parm_ci() to setup the parms for processing by op_bindparm() (moves them into a specific area used
     for buffering parameters).
  4. When called-in routine is driven (op_bindparm() gets driven at all entryrefs with parameter lists defined - even if empty)
     op_bindparm pulls the parms from the parm pool parameter space created by push_parm_ci() and binds them to local vars in
     the called routine then releases the parameter space for reuse.

***********************************

-----------------------------------

Operational changes with this project in the execution of a call-in (note steps are from original code):

- No longer call make_cimode() to generate the internal GTM$CI routine (step gtm_init YottaDB#8).
- Call base_frame() instead of gtm_init_env() to create ONLY the call-in base frame instead of the base frame plus
  the GTM$CI frame (step gtm_init YottaDB#9).
- No longer setup GTM$CI as part of gtm_ci[p](). Instead, we allocate the frame using new_stack_frame() called
  directly (gtm_ci[p]() YottaDB#1).
- After the call-in execution frame is created by gtm_ci[p](), a variant of the push_parm routine is called that takes
  the parameters from the parm block that gtm_ci[p] created from the incoming arguments and converts them so they can
  be processed by op_bindparm() which is a routine called by generated code anytime a label with arguments occurs in
  the M source code (gtm_ci[p]() YottaDB#2 and YottaDB#3).
- The execution flow used to look like:
    * C [possibly main] routine
    * call gtm_ci[p]()
      * drive dm_start() to kick off transition to M mode execution
        * drive GTM$CI "build" routine.
          * op_extexfun()
	  * Drive target M routine
	  * Target routine returns to GTM$CI which then drives ci_ret_code (longjmp back to dm_start).
        * return to gtm_ci[p] via longjmp() in ci_ret_code() which returns to dm_start() and returns from there.
    * Return to C caller
- The flow has similar steps but one less layer and returns without the use of a (longjmp) system call:
    * C [possibly main] routine
    * call gtm_ci[p]()
      * drive dm_start() to kick off transition to M mode execution
        * drive target M routine
	* M returns to gtm_levl_ret_code which returns from an M routine without unwinding it which unwinds to dm_start.
        * return to gtm_ci[p]
      * return to C caller.

-----------------------------------

Notes on the removal of GTM$CI.

- A call-in previously did not return "normally" by a return statement that unwound the stack. Instead it invoked
  a system call (longjmp()) to unwind the stack and return to dm_start() which then returned "normally" to the caller.
- A much faster way to return would be to just - return but GTM$CI complicated that. The purpose of the GTM$CI "routine"
  was to set up arguments and call an assembler "glue code" routine to put the parms where they needed to be before
  calling the call-in routine.
- Specifically, GTM$CI was a "constructed" routine (much like GTM$DMOD) in that it was not built from M source but
  was created by the make_mode() routine. Here's the operation:
    a. gtm_ci[p]() builds a parm_blk that contains the name of the glue routine to call (op_extexfun or op_extcall
       depending on whether has args or return value). The parm_blk also contains the parameters and other things
       needed to effect a call.
    b. gtm_ci[p]() drives dm_start() which enters M mode and drives the top routine on the M stack which happens to
       be GTM$CI.
    c. GTM$CI's first function is to drive ci_restart() which is an assembler routine sort of like a specialized
       version of callg() that takes the routine to call (e.g. op_extexfun), the routine/label to call and all the
       input and output parameters for the call-in routine and drives it to create the stack.
    d. When op_extexfun() completes, it drives the top routine on the M stack which is now the call-in frame.
    e. When the callin frame returns to GTM$CI, it drives ci_ret_code() which does a longjmp() to return.
- So GTM$CI's primary purpose was to allocate the stack frame, setup the arguments and drive the glue code that
  made the actual call. This means the arguments were reformatted at least twice. Wanted to avoid that. Also, the
  system call flavor of return is unnecessary. Wanted to avoid that too.
- Two changes allowed us to be rid of the extra GTM$CI overhead:
    1. With the routine gtm_levl_ret_code added to GT.M for triggers, it became possible for a stackframe to return
       without being unwound. We make use of that so we can do the simple unwind of call-in levels.
    2. By changing the push_parm() routine (in parm pool) so we it can pull the arguments for the call-in routine
       directly out of the parm block created by gtm_ci[p] instead of having to push them on the stack and pull them
       back off in the glue routine. This avoided one of the argument restructurings that were happening.
- Because GTM$CI went away, the SFF_CI flag was changed to a type flag instead (since that is what it actually is) and
  it was moved to the base frame itself which is how triggers also does it.

-----------------------------------

User visible changes in this project (for specification in release note):

1. There is no GTM$CI level anymore (no longer needed). So this name no longer shows up in stack listings.
2. Because there is no GTM$CI level anymore, the $STACK and $ZLEVEL SVNs show one less than they used to in a call-in
   environment. These SVNs now mirror the levels one would get by using mumps -run. The first level executing routine
   is $ZLEVEL=1 and $STACK=0 instead of the previous $ZLEVEL=2 and $STACK=1.
3. ZSHOW "S" shows the entire stack. It used to stop at the first call-in frame and not report any further back. A
   stack marker shows where call-in base frames are located in the stack. Where a call-in frame is detected, the text
   "(Call-In Level Entry)" appears in the stack list.
4. When replacing a routine that is active on the stack, we ran the stack backwards to verify the routine was not being used.
   You can still replace an active routine but it is a special case. Unfortunately the loop was again stopping at the first
   call-in frame and not looking further back. If a routine being replaced was on the stack further back than that call-in
   base-frame, ugly stuff was likely to occur when we unwound back to that earlier frame.
5. Similar issue when M-Profiling is looking up an entry ref on the stack. Need to figure out what happens when it doesn't
   find it.
6. $VIEW(ENVIRONMENT) description.
7. [Z]HALT in a call-in do not halt but return to the caller as they should but did not previously.

Files changes in this commit:

- sr_i386/g_msf.si
  1. Remove SFF_CI flag and resequence flags

- sr_port/alias_funcs.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage & restructure checks due to GTM$CI
     frame no longer being there.

  A review question asked why this change removed an "fp = fp->old-frame_pointer" statement. The answer is that it
  has to do with the elimination of the GTM$CI frame. The frame chain used to look like this:

    CI-base-frame <- GTM$CI <- M routine

  Now it looks like:

    CI-base-frame <- M routine

  In the previous scheme the GTM$CI frame had a "flag value" SFF_CI that indicated the M call was a call-in frame.
  In the new scheme the the base frame has a "type value" with SFT_CI set that indicates this is a call-in frame.
  The removed statement was because once we have noted the frame with the type set for a call-in frame, we had to
  back one more frame to get to its base frame. We no longer have to do that as the frame with the type flag IS
  the base frame.

- sr_port/dollar_zlevel.c
  1. Spruce up some comments to make more sense.

- sr_port/f_text.c
  1. Remove GTM$CI from the list of supressed values (no longer exists).

- sr_port/fgncal.h
  1. Remove declaration for fgncal_lookup.c (no longer used).

- sr_port/fgncal_lookup.c

  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  4. Fix loop looking for $ETRAP defined when $ZTRAP set to explicit NULL to stop at frame 0
     instead of frame 1. This allows it to find call-in base frame (now frame 0 instead of 1)
     and also the mumps -run base frame.

- sr_port/mdef.h
  1. Move DBGALS macro here from alias.h so can define DEBUG_ALIAS right here instead of
    requiring it to be a compiler option.

- sr_port/mprof_funcs.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. When running the stack, skip over both TRIGGER and CALLIN base frames.

- sr_port/op_bindparm.c
  1. Minor cosmetic changes and comment clarifications.

- sr_port/op_clralsvals.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Modify the loop to no longer assume a GTM$CI frame when call-ins are in use (no longer
     need to unwind one more frame to the base frame as the flagged frame IS the base frame).

- sr_port/op_halt.c
  2. If call-in mode, do NOT just exit - make sure to return to the call-in caller.

- sr_port/op_unwind.c
  2. Add include of gtmio.h for debugging macro(s).

- sr_port/op_zg1.c
  2. If call-in mode, restart the frame we unwind to. This returns to the caller.

- sr_port/op_zgoto.c
  1. Cleanups - remove #ifdef for UNIX (leaving code in place since all is UNIX now).
  2. Cleanups - remove VMS conditional code.
  3. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.

- sr_port/op_zhalt.c
  1. If call-in mode, do NOT just exit - make sure to return to the call-in caller.

- sr_port/parm_pool.c
  1. Move the push_parm() routine out to sr_port/push_parm_src.h so it can be include in
     two forms:
     a. Form that gets its arguments from the varargs parameter list.
     b. Form that gets its arguments from a parmblk_struct.

- sr_port/stack_frame.h
  1. Remove SFF_CI flag and resequence flags to fill the gap.
  2. Add SFT_CI type id.
  3. Modify SKIP_BASE_FRAME() macro to skip both TRIGGER and CALL-IN base frames.

- sr_port/tp_unwind.c
  1.  Remove #ifdef DEBUG wrapper on debugging includes so they work with a pro build too.

- sr_port/unw_mv_ent.c
  1. Change debugging output to be more clear which path is being taken.

- sr_port/zlput_rname.c
  1. Since SKIP_BASE_FRAME macro now handles call-in base frames and because there's one fewer
     frames than there used to be when GTM$CI was used, reorganize the loop(s) traversing the
     M stack so it is more effectively utilized.

- sr_port/zshow_stack.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Add marker for when call-in base frame shows up in stack.

- sr_unix/ci_ret_code.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Remove the ci_ret_code() and ci_ret_code_exit() routines as not needed.  The ci_ret_code()
     routine did a longjmp() to "return" from the call-in - now replaced by a normal unwind
     procedure with no system calls. The ci_ret_code_exit() routine was set into the call-in
     base-frame and driven when ZGOTO 0 was done. It is removed because it too did a longjmp()
     which we are trying to avoid. That condition is now special cased in ZGOTO.
  3. The ci_ret_code_quit() routine (called to unwind the CALL-IN base frame) had comments
     added to better describe the dependencies

- sr_unix/error_return.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Don't let CALL-IN mode do an EXIT here - force return to caller.

- sr_unix/fgncalsp.h
  1. Get rid of no longer needed pointer fields (now passed directly)

- sr_unix/gtm_startup.c
  1. Add comments on odd happenings.

- sr_unix/gtm_trigger.c
  1. Change an M stack running loop to work without GTM$CI frame.

- sr_unix/gtm_unlink_all.c
  1. Remove check for GTM$CI executable.

- sr_unix/gtmci.c
  1. Removed use of longjmp() to effect return from call-ins.
  2. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  3. Changed parameter handling to eliminate need for GTM$CI to reformat parameters
     appropriately for call-in to op_bindparm in generated M code.
  4. Eliminated need to drive op_extcall/op_extexfun to start M routine. We now call
     push_parm to set up called-routine parameters ourselves.

- sr_unix/gtmci.h
  1. Removed GTM$CI as an intermediate call-in frame.
  2. Modified SET_CI_ENV() macro to setup actual base frame instead of intermediate frame.

- sr_unix/gtmci_isv.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.
  2. Some comment cleanup.

- sr_unix/gtmci_signals.c
  1. Remove reference to invocation flag MUMPS_GTMCI which was never being set anywhere.

- sr_unix/invocation_mode.h
  1. Remove MUMPS_GTMCI_OFF macro as unused.
  2. Remove MUMPS_GTMCI mode and resequence modes to fill gap (MUMPS_GTMCI never set).

- sr_unix/jobchild_init.c
  1. Don't create GTM$CI anymore (make_cimode() not needed and removed).
  2. Create single base CI frame instead of base + GTM$CI frame.

- sr_unix/make_cimode.c
  1. Removed - no longer needed.

- sr_unix/make_mode.c
  1. Removed all capability to create GTM$CI as this "program" is no longer needed.
  2. Removed all #ifdef of __ia64, __hpux, and _AIX.

- sr_unix/ojchildparms.c
  1. Change the "dummy" base frame generated from GTM$CI frame to GTM$DMOD frame. It doesn't
     matter what type of frame this is so long as there is one that can be used to return.

- sr_unix/op_fnfgncal.c
  1. Change SFF_CI flag usage to SFT_CI type usage.

- sr_unix/relinkctl.c
  1. Change M stack frame loop to compensate for the lack of the GTM$CI frame and which frame
     now has the CI marker (was flag field in GTM$CI frame, now type field in CI base frame).

- sr_unix/rtnhdr.h
  1. Modify CLEANUP_COPIED_RECURSIVE_RTN() macro such that a null routine header address in a
     base frame doesn't screw things up and cause that NULL to be dereferenced.

- sr_x86_64/ci_restart.s
  1. Remove this parameter massaging routine as being unnecessary anymore.

- sr_x86_64/g_msf.si
  1. Remove SFF_CI (no longer used) and SFF_ETRAP_ERR (still defined but not used in assemble).

sr_port/op_fnview.c
  1. Add "ENVIRONMENT" returns possible environment tokens "MUMPS", "MUPIP", "CALLIN", or "TRIGGER".
     Multiple comma separated tokens may be returned.

sr_port/viewtab.h
  1. Add "ENVIRONMENT" option.
  2. Remove non-UNIX environment #ifdef code.

- sr_linux/release_name.h - Change to R1.10

sr_port/alias.h:
  1. Move DBGALS related macros to mdef.h so we can put the define for DEBUG_ALIAS right there and not
     have to specify a compiler option.

sr_port/alias_funcs.c:
  1. The LVMON* view was overloaded. There was the LVMON command that monitors given/specified local variables
     for when they get changed and there were the LVMON* view commands that help to debug aliases and are active
     only when DEBUG_ALIAS is defined. When this define was enabled, the LVMON command was giving a VIEWAMBIG
     error since the view commands that followed it in the table were LVMON*. This update changes the name of the
     VIEW commands, the related routines and fields to be lvamon* instead of lvmon*. There are no tests of LVMON*
     in the test system due to it requiring a compiler flag to be incorporated so no tests were affected.

sr_port/gbldefs.c:
sr_port/lv_val.h:
sr_port/op_view.h
sr_port/tp_unwind.c
sr_port/viewtab.h
  1. Rename lvmon* for lvamon*.

sr_port/mdef.h
  1. Comment out define for DEBUG_ALIAS

-----------------------------------

This project significantly changes how call-ins works. To properly describe it, we need to first describe the
current (original) operation of callins. The following write-up between the ------ lines below describes the
current (r100 and previous versions) call-in operation:

-----------------------------------

How call-ins work:

gtm_init() - Initializes YDB runtime
  1.   - image_type set to GTM_IMAGE
  2.   - invocation mode set to MUMPS_CALLIN
  3.   - init_gtm()
  4.     - gtm_startup()
  5.       - allocate M stack
  6.       - create (dummy) base frame with return addr of gtm_ret_code()
  7.       - jobchild_init()
  8.         - make_cimode() with returned addr of created routine set into "base_addr". This dynamically created routine
               is called GTM$CI.
  9.         - gtm_init_env(base_addr, transfer_addr)
 10.           - base_frame(base_addr transfer_addr) - creates "another" base frame with an initial execution addr
                 of gtm_ret_code() but with rvector set to addr of GTM$CI.
 11.           - new_stack_frame(base_addr, PTEXT_ADR(base_addr), transfer_addr) - creates an executable frame for the
                 GTM$CI routine.
 12.         - Runs SET_CI_ENV() which changes the executable frame created so it has the SF_CI call-in flag set, and
               and changes the base frame's execution address to ci_ret_code_exit(). This base frame is only used when
               there's a ZGOTO 0.

Stack after gtm_init():
  0. BaseFrame (created by gtm_startup()) - probably just to have *something* on the stack in case later initialization fails.
     - This baseframe has a zeroed rvector with an execution address of gtm_ret_code(). There is no previous pointer nor is there
       an unwind frame pointer hiding behind the frame like most base frames have
     - This is the true bottom of the stack in terms of stack frames though an mv_stent is on the stack before this.
     - In practise, we won't see this frame as it isn't used past initialization.
  1. BaseFrame (created by base_frame() as called by gtm_init_env()).
     - rvector is for GTM$CI routine.
     - Execution address is ci_ret_code_exit() (again, only used for ZGOTO 0 aka process exit call from M).
     - The address field on the stack immediately prior to this base frame pointer is an actual unwind address to base frame 0.
  2. Executable frame (created by new_stack_frame() as called by gtm_init_env()).
     - rvector pointer is set to GTM$CI routine
     - Frame is flagged as as call-in

gtm_ci[p]() - Perform call-in:
  1. Executable frame set up in step #11 of gtm_init() above has its execution field modified to point to the GTM$CI routine.
  2. Creates parameter block including address of call-in routine and address of either op_extcall() or op_extexfun() which
     will add a new stack frame and have the call-in parameters set up.
  3. Drives dm_start() to invoke the callin. The actual call path goes like this:
       a. dm_start() - establishes mdb_condition_handler() and sets up to drive M code. Invokes top stack frame (GTM$CI).
       b. ci_restart() - this is the first thing done in GTM$CI. This takes the parmblk_struct passed in the global var
          param_list and restructures the inputs for a call to op_extcall() or op_extexfun() and jumps to it.
       c. op_extcall() or op_extexfun() allocate a new stack frame and "return" to it such that the actual routine we are
          calling into is invoked.
       d. When the M code returns, it returns to GTM$CI and runs ci_ret_code() which drives a longjmp back to where
          mdb_condition_handler was setup in dm_start().
       e. dm_start() then returns to gtm_ci[p] for return value processing.

The old parameter flow is:
  1. Parms are passed in as part of the call to gtm_ci[p]().
  2. gtm_ci[p]() reformats the parameters into a "parm_blk".
  3. When ci_restart is driven, parms are converted from parm_blk to register/stack parms.
  4. When op_extexfun() is driven, parms are shifted around for call to push_parm().
  5. When push_parm() is driven from op_extexfun(), register/stack parms are converted to parm_blk parms.
  6. When called-in routine is driven, its parms are picked up from parm_blk by op_bindparm() and bound to local
     vars in the called routine.

Note, the entire purpose of the GTM$CI routine is to create the stack frame the call-in will run in and to set up its
parameters in a fashion that op_bindparm() can read them. Since the op_bindparm of the day expected a varargs list (albeit
in a different fashion from the varargs list passed into gtm_ci[p]()), at that time, the GTM$CI was written to provide the
parameter conversion necessary at the time. The new support described next has made some changes that make this extra
conversion step unnecessary.

-----------------------------------

Following (between the *********** lines) is a description of how call-ins work with this new support in place:

***********************************

How the new call-ins functionality works:

gtm_init() - Initializes YDB runtime
  1.   - image_type set to GTM_IMAGE
  2.   - invocation mode set to MUMPS_CALLIN
  3.   - init_gtm()
  4.     - gtm_startup()
  5.       - allocate M stack
  6.       - create (dummy) base frame with return addr of gtm_ret_code()
  7.       - jobchild_init()
  8.         - base_frame(base_addr transfer_addr) - creates "another" base frame with an initial execution addr
               of gtm_ret_code() but with rvector set to addr of GTM$CI.
  9.         - Runs SET_CI_ENV() which changes the executable frame created so it has the SF_CI call-in flag set, and
               and changes the base frame's execution address to ci_ret_code_exit(). This base frame is only used when
               there's a ZGOTO 0.

Stack after gtm_init():
  0. BaseFrame (created by gtm_startup()) - probably just to have *something* on the stack in case later initialization fails.
     - This baseframe has a zeroed rvector with an execution address of gtm_ret_code(). There is no previous pointer nor is there
       an unwind frame pointer hiding behind the frame like most base frames have
     - This is the true bottom of the stack in terms of stack frames though an mv_stent is on the stack before this.
     - In practise, we won't see this frame as it isn't used past initialization.
  1. BaseFrame (created by base_frame() as called by jobchild_init()).
     - rvector is NULL as this frame is just for return.
     - Execution address is gtm_levl_ret_code() - an entry point in dm_start() used to return without unwinding the frame.
     - The address field on the stack immediately prior to this base frame pointer is an actual unwind address to base frame 0.

gtm_ci[p]() - Perform call-in:
  1. Create new executable frame (new_stack_frame()) for the called M routine to run in.
  2. Creates parameter block which contains a newly constructed lv_val for each incoming parameter.
  3. Cal push_parm_ci() which takes the parameter block built by gtm_ci[p]() and moves the parms to the the parameter area used by
     op_bindparm() which gets called at the top of the called target routine. See parameter flow below.
  4. Drives dm_start() to invoke the callin. Since the M stack frame for the called routine is on top, it gets immediately driven.
  5. When the M code returns, it returns to gtm_levl_ret_code which does a simple return to dm_start() without using longjmp().
  6. dm_start() then returns to gtm_ci[p] for return value processing.

The parameter flow is:
  1. Parms are passed in as part of the call to gtm_ci[p]().
  2. gtm_ci[p]() reformats the parameters into a "parm_blk".
  3. gtm_ci[p]() drives push_parm_ci() to setup the parms for processing by op_bindparm() (moves them into a specific area used
     for buffering parameters).
  4. When called-in routine is driven (op_bindparm() gets driven at all entryrefs with parameter lists defined - even if empty)
     op_bindparm pulls the parms from the parm pool parameter space created by push_parm_ci() and binds them to local vars in
     the called routine then releases the parameter space for reuse.

***********************************

-----------------------------------

Operational changes with this project in the execution of a call-in (note steps are from original code):

- No longer call make_cimode() to generate the internal GTM$CI routine (step gtm_init #8).
- Call base_frame() instead of gtm_init_env() to create ONLY the call-in base frame instead of the base frame plus
  the GTM$CI frame (step gtm_init #9).
- No longer setup GTM$CI as part of gtm_ci[p](). Instead, we allocate the frame using new_stack_frame() called
  directly (gtm_ci[p]() #1).
- After the call-in execution frame is created by gtm_ci[p](), a variant of the push_parm routine is called that takes
  the parameters from the parm block that gtm_ci[p] created from the incoming arguments and converts them so they can
  be processed by op_bindparm() which is a routine called by generated code anytime a label with arguments occurs in
  the M source code (gtm_ci[p]() #2 and #3).
- The execution flow used to look like:
    * C [possibly main] routine
    * call gtm_ci[p]()
      * drive dm_start() to kick off transition to M mode execution
        * drive GTM$CI "build" routine.
          * op_extexfun()
	  * Drive target M routine
	  * Target routine returns to GTM$CI which then drives ci_ret_code (longjmp back to dm_start).
        * return to gtm_ci[p] via longjmp() in ci_ret_code() which returns to dm_start() and returns from there.
    * Return to C caller
- The flow has similar steps but one less layer and returns without the use of a (longjmp) system call:
    * C [possibly main] routine
    * call gtm_ci[p]()
      * drive dm_start() to kick off transition to M mode execution
        * drive target M routine
	* M returns to gtm_levl_ret_code which returns from an M routine without unwinding it which unwinds to dm_start.
        * return to gtm_ci[p]
      * return to C caller.

-----------------------------------

Notes on the removal of GTM$CI.

- A call-in previously did not return "normally" by a return statement that unwound the stack. Instead it invoked
  a system call (longjmp()) to unwind the stack and return to dm_start() which then returned "normally" to the caller.
- A much faster way to return would be to just - return but GTM$CI complicated that. The purpose of the GTM$CI "routine"
  was to set up arguments and call an assembler "glue code" routine to put the parms where they needed to be before
  calling the call-in routine.
- Specifically, GTM$CI was a "constructed" routine (much like GTM$DMOD) in that it was not built from M source but
  was created by the make_mode() routine. Here's the operation:
    a. gtm_ci[p]() builds a parm_blk that contains the name of the glue routine to call (op_extexfun or op_extcall
       depending on whether has args or return value). The parm_blk also contains the parameters and other things
       needed to effect a call.
    b. gtm_ci[p]() drives dm_start() which enters M mode and drives the top routine on the M stack which happens to
       be GTM$CI.
    c. GTM$CI's first function is to drive ci_restart() which is an assembler routine sort of like a specialized
       version of callg() that takes the routine to call (e.g. op_extexfun), the routine/label to call and all the
       input and output parameters for the call-in routine and drives it to create the stack.
    d. When op_extexfun() completes, it drives the top routine on the M stack which is now the call-in frame.
    e. When the callin frame returns to GTM$CI, it drives ci_ret_code() which does a longjmp() to return.
- So GTM$CI's primary purpose was to allocate the stack frame, setup the arguments and drive the glue code that
  made the actual call. This means the arguments were reformatted at least twice. Wanted to avoid that. Also, the
  system call flavor of return is unnecessary. Wanted to avoid that too.
- Two changes allowed us to be rid of the extra GTM$CI overhead:
    1. With the routine gtm_levl_ret_code added to GT.M for triggers, it became possible for a stackframe to return
       without being unwound. We make use of that so we can do the simple unwind of call-in levels.
    2. By changing the push_parm() routine (in parm pool) so we it can pull the arguments for the call-in routine
       directly out of the parm block created by gtm_ci[p] instead of having to push them on the stack and pull them
       back off in the glue routine. This avoided one of the argument restructurings that were happening.
- Because GTM$CI went away, the SFF_CI flag was changed to a type flag instead (since that is what it actually is) and
  it was moved to the base frame itself which is how triggers also does it.

-----------------------------------

User visible changes in this project (for specification in release note):

1. There is no GTM$CI level anymore (no longer needed). So this name no longer shows up in stack listings.
2. Because there is no GTM$CI level anymore, the $STACK and $ZLEVEL SVNs show one less than they used to in a call-in
   environment. These SVNs now mirror the levels one would get by using mumps -run. The first level executing routine
   is $ZLEVEL=1 and $STACK=0 instead of the previous $ZLEVEL=2 and $STACK=1.
3. ZSHOW "S" shows the entire stack. It used to stop at the first call-in frame and not report any further back. A
   stack marker shows where call-in base frames are located in the stack. Where a call-in frame is detected, the text
   "(Call-In Level Entry)" appears in the stack list.
4. When replacing a routine that is active on the stack, we ran the stack backwards to verify the routine was not being used.
   You can still replace an active routine but it is a special case. Unfortunately the loop was again stopping at the first
   call-in frame and not looking further back. If a routine being replaced was on the stack further back than that call-in
   base-frame, ugly stuff was likely to occur when we unwound back to that earlier frame.
5. Similar issue when M-Profiling is looking up an entry ref on the stack. Need to figure out what happens when it doesn't
   find it.
6. $VIEW(ENVIRONMENT) description.
7. [Z]HALT in a call-in do not halt but return to the caller as they should but did not previously.

This is a test where a memory-error is forced (using limit vmemorysize). And various rollbacks are run. One of them runs with multiple threads and one thread gets a memory error during hashtable expansion. Normally a memory error causes the thread to exit and in turn that signals other threads to exit which is handled fine. But in this case, the condition handler hashtab_rehash_ch() did an UNWIND because it decided an out-of-memory situation implies we will abort the expansion and continue with the previous hashtable (this was a good-to-expand call, not a need-to-expand call). And the UNWIND macro had an assert that we better not be inside multi-threaded code. But that is exactly where we were in this failure.

The reason why the UNWIND has that logic is because in pro it would return control to the erroring thread and let it continue processing but we would not have released the pthread-mutex-lock that we obtained in rts_error_va() for this thread. That means all other threads will not be able to get this lock for various actions they do until the erroring thread tries to obtain the lock again (at which point we would check that we already hold the lock and not try to get the lock again) and later when we release it, other threads will be able to get the thread lock.

The fix is to make sure we release the thread-level lock in the UNWIND macro (and assert that we do hold the lock in dbg).

The pro implication of this issue is that a MUPIP JOURNAL command that encounters a memory error in some cases could in the worst case transform a multi-threaded recovery to a non-threaded recovery command thereby slowing it down. No other user-visible implications are expected out of this.

…me errors as they could cause SIG-11 YottaDB#90

A few issues related to compile-time errors were discovered.

1) The below M program correctly issues a PATNOTFOUND error when compiling. But if one tries to run the compiled object code (which should be okay since the execution does not reach the portions of the M code where the compiler error was found), a SIG-11 is observed. This happens only with GT.M V63002 (and in turn YottaDB r1.10) but not with V63001A (and in turn YottaDB r1.00).

```
> cat test.m
main    ;
        do good
        quit
bad     ;
        if 1?1B
        quit
good    ;
        write "hello",!
        quit
```

Related to the above, the below M program test1.m produces a GTMASSERT when run with a debug build. Unlike the previous test case (test.m), the production build did not have problems with test1.m.

```
> cat test1.m
        if 1?1B

> $gtm_dist/mumps -run test1
%GTM-F-GTMASSERT, GT.M V6.3-002 Linux x86_64 - Assert failed /Distrib/GT.M/V63002/sr_port/chktchain.c line 28
```

The primary issue in both the above tests was in bx_boollit() which noticed a pattern match operator usage with both operands being literals and hence invoked do_patfixed() which encountered a PATNOTFOUND error. That caused ins_errtriple() to be invoked which in turn removed all triples corresponding to the current M line (dqdelchain() call) and returned back to bx_boollit() which did not realize this and went ahead with manipulating the triple chains (dqrins() call etc.) and returned to its caller bool_expr() which also did triple chain manipulation (dqdel() call etc.) all the while operating on triples that were no longer part of the execution chain (due to the prior delqchain() call). This caused a corruption in the doubly-linked triple list in "t_orig" which resulted in incorrect object code being generated that later ended up as the SIG-11 when one tried running this M program.

In GT.M V63002, boolean expression evaluation and literal optimization got a significant rework. As part of that change, the macros RETURN_IF_RTS_ERROR and RETURN_EXPR_IF_RTS_ERROR were introduced to check for compile-time errors and if so return from functions right away instead of manipulating triple chains. These safety checks needed to be added in a few more places. That fixed the primary issue.

2) In addition, it was noticed that the following M program fails an assert when run with the debug build.

```
> cat test2.m
        xecute "if ""a""?1B"

> mumps -run test2
%GTM-F-ASSERT, Assert failed in /Distrib/GT.M/V63002/sr_port/zlcompile.c line 81 for expression ((FALSE == run_time) && (TRUE == TREF(compile_time)))
```

Below is the corresponding C-stack.

```

In this case, run_time was TRUE and caused the assert failure. Turns out this was due to m_xecute() function (invoked by zlcompile()) temporarily setting run_time to FALSE but when a PATNOTFOUND error was encountered, the condition handler compiler_ch() was invoked which did an UNWIND back to zlcompile() incorrectly persisting the global variable changes done by the interim function call of m_xecute().

The fix for this was to reset the run_time and TREF(xecute_literal_parse) global variables just like is being done in mdb_condition_handler().

…me errors as they could cause SIG-11 #90

A few issues related to compile-time errors were discovered.

1) The below M program correctly issues a PATNOTFOUND error when compiling. But if one tries to run the compiled object code (which should be okay since the execution does not reach the portions of the M code where the compiler error was found), a SIG-11 is observed. This happens only with GT.M V63002 (and in turn YottaDB r1.10) but not with V63001A (and in turn YottaDB r1.00).

```
> cat test.m
main    ;
        do good
        quit
bad     ;
        if 1?1B
        quit
good    ;
        write "hello",!
        quit
```

Related to the above, the below M program test1.m produces a GTMASSERT when run with a debug build. Unlike the previous test case (test.m), the production build did not have problems with test1.m.

```
> cat test1.m
        if 1?1B

> $gtm_dist/mumps -run test1
%GTM-F-GTMASSERT, GT.M V6.3-002 Linux x86_64 - Assert failed /Distrib/GT.M/V63002/sr_port/chktchain.c line 28
```

The primary issue in both the above tests was in bx_boollit() which noticed a pattern match operator usage with both operands being literals and hence invoked do_patfixed() which encountered a PATNOTFOUND error. That caused ins_errtriple() to be invoked which in turn removed all triples corresponding to the current M line (dqdelchain() call) and returned back to bx_boollit() which did not realize this and went ahead with manipulating the triple chains (dqrins() call etc.) and returned to its caller bool_expr() which also did triple chain manipulation (dqdel() call etc.) all the while operating on triples that were no longer part of the execution chain (due to the prior delqchain() call).

estess added a commit to estess/YottaDB that referenced this issue Aug 13, 2018
Modules changes:

- sr_port/bm_getfree.c - Issues: free_bit (line 216), map_size (line 216), cs1 (line 223),
                         and depth (line 221) are all uninitialized. Additionally,
			 blkhist.cr and blkhist.cycle undefined at line 238.
  - Loop changed so always do one iteration. Will do a new scan and check to see which of
    these issues are fixed by the loop change and which remain.

- sr_port/dse_m_rest.c - Issue: The variable r_top was flagged as uninitialized in line 87.
  - The variable r_top was re-initialized a few lines further down so line 87 was not
    necessary and was removed.
  - Some reformats due to non-standard formatting pre-existing.

- sr_port/dse_shift.c - Issue: lbp undefined in line 99
  - Initialize 'lbp' to NULL earlier so no paths to it are left for it to be undefined.

- sr_port/gtmsource_ctl_init.c - Issue: tmp_ctl resource leak at line 182.
  - Free 'tmp_ctl' when returning or erroring out.

- sr_port/is_canonic_name.c - Issue: Issue was noted via an issue in a different module.
                              In the parse_gv_name_and_subscripts() routine, near the top,
			      seq is set to *subscripts though is never referenced again.
  - Remove variable 'seq' which is not used and may have issues dereferencing 'subscripts'
    when not provided.

- sr_port/mu_int_blk.c - Issue: free_blk_base resource leak going out of scope line 323.
  - Free malloc'd storage (in 'free_blk_base') before return.

- sr_port/mupip_set_journal.c - Issue: Resource leak rewriting gds_info, gds_info not
                                cleaned up.
  - Remove unused gds_info allocation (not plugged into anything) and changed entire clause
    to FILE_CNTL_INIT_IF_NULL() macro to do initialization correctly.

- sr_port/mur_output_show.c - Issue: first_time uninitialized in line 328.
  - Initialize 'first_time' to TRUE so no path to it being uninitialized.

- sr_port/op_fnzsocket.c - Issue: tls_options_mask uninitialized at 598.
  - Move initialization of 'tls_options_mask' up earlier so no paths to uninitialized use.

- sr_port/op_indincr.c - Issue: s is uninitialized at line 101
  - Only do put_tref() if something to put. While this leaves v undefined if there was an
    error, this does not matter because comp_fini() ignores v in that case.

- sr_port/stp_gcol_src.h - Issue: uninitialized value of cstr at line 1063.
  - Make sure cstr is initialized whether expansion succeeds or fails by moving point
    where cstr is set.

- sr_port/tcp_open.c - Issues: 1. resource leak - ai_ptr going out of scope at line 190.
                               2. remote_ai_head uninitialized at line 302.
			       3. calling close (gtm_close) without checking return value at
			          line 355.
			       4. resource leak - remote_ai_head out of scope at line 340.
  - Remove some old Tru64 stuff.
  - Remove unnecessary initialization of remote_ai_ptr.
  - Remove some unused variables.
  - Move hostname validation to client section and remove the conditional parsing of the
    host (required for client) which solves YottaDB#2.
  - Change close() to CLOSEFILE() macros which solves YottaDB#3.
  - Make sure to release linked list at ai_ptr which solves YottaDB#1.
  - Remove assert when erroring with timeout (now tested by online_bkup/online6). This was
    required since the tests in online6 now timeout instead getting GETADDRINFO for invalid
    passive hosts being specified.
  - Make sure release linked list at remote_ai_head (which solves YottaDB#4).

- sr_port/ydberrors.msg
  - Added TCPCONNTIMEOUT message as the other timeout messages didn't quite do what was
    needed. There were a couple util_out_print() timeout message in tcp_open() but it
    really needed to be a real error - especially since it was now being tested in a test
    (online_bkup/online6).

- sr_unix/anticipatory_freeze.c - Issue: Resource leak - handle goes out of scope at line 358.
  - Add an FCLOSE() and error check for same prior to module returns.

- sr_unix/bin_load.c - Issue: Several allocated blocks and buffers need cleanup when leave
  - Implement mechanism to track all of the allocated buffers and free any that are
    allocated if an error occurs or on normal routine return.

- sr_unix/cli_lex.c - Issue: retptr uninitialized at line 488 (return from module).
  - Initialize return value to null so is initialized when nothing is read.

- sr_unix/gtm_getpwuid.c - Originally had changes for an issue but backed those out but left
                           these changes intact anyway.
  - Removed an unneeded return value check from malloc (gtm_malloc does not return if
    no storage).
  - Reformatted an #ifdef block.

- sr_unix/gtmcrypt_entry.c - Issue: Resource leak - handle goes out of scope at line 135.
  - release/close the handle before return

- sr_unix/gtmrecv_end.c - Issue: jnlpool_strm_seqno[idx] uninitialized at line 194.
  - Only do the loop to dump the streams if the journal pool exists.

- sr_unix/gtmsecshr.c - Issue: Resource leak - procstrm goes out of scope at line 1026.
  - Close 'procstrm' before return on error.

- sr_unix/gtmsource_shutdown.c - Issue: maxindex is uninitialized at line 317.
  - Add '!auto_shutdown' to clause as 'maxindex' is only set when !auto_shutdown.

- sr_unix/iosocket_tls.c - Issue: 1. errlen2 is uninitialized at line 416.
                                  2. errlen is unintialized at line 466.
  - Errors aren't using the correct method of getting error out there. The 'errlen'
    var is only seldomly set. Change to use LEN_AND_STR() macro to provide length.

- sr_unix/mu_all_version_standalone.c - Issue: save_errno is unintialized at line 172.
  - Save 'errno' to 'save_errno' to initialize it for the error message.

- sr_unix/mucblkini.c - Issue: Vars bp1, bp2, and bmp were not released before errors.
  - Free these vars appropriately before leaving routine.

estess pushed a commit to estess/YottaDB that referenced this issue Aug 14, 2018
Modules changes:

- sr_port/bm_getfree.c - Issues: free_bit (line 216), map_size (line 216), cs1 (line 223),
                         and depth (line 221) are all uninitialized. Additionally,
			 blkhist.cr and blkhist.cycle undefined at line 238.
  - Loop changed so always do one iteration. Will do a new scan and check to see which of
    these issues are fixed by the loop change and which remain.

- sr_port/dse_m_rest.c - Issue: The variable r_top was flagged as uninitialized in line 87.
  - The variable r_top was re-initialized a few lines further down so line 87 was not
    necessary and was removed.
  - Some reformats due to non-standard formatting pre-existing.

- sr_port/dse_shift.c - Issue: lbp undefined in line 99
  - Initialize 'lbp' to NULL earlier so no paths to it are left for it to be undefined.

- sr_port/gtmsource_ctl_init.c - Issue: tmp_ctl resource leak at line 182.
  - Free 'tmp_ctl' when returning or erroring out.

- sr_port/is_canonic_name.c - Issue: Issue was noted via an issue in a different module.
                              In the parse_gv_name_and_subscripts() routine, near the top,
			      seq is set to *subscripts though is never referenced again.
  - Remove variable 'seq' which is not used and may have issues dereferencing 'subscripts'
    when not provided.

- sr_port/mu_int_blk.c - Issue: free_blk_base resource leak going out of scope line 323.
  - Free malloc'd storage (in 'free_blk_base') before return.

- sr_port/mupip_set_journal.c - Issue: Resource leak rewriting gds_info, gds_info not
                                cleaned up.
  - Remove unused gds_info allocation (not plugged into anything) and changed entire clause
    to FILE_CNTL_INIT_IF_NULL() macro to do initialization correctly.

- sr_port/mur_output_show.c - Issue: first_time uninitialized in line 328.
  - Initialize 'first_time' to TRUE so no path to it being uninitialized.

- sr_port/op_fnzsocket.c - Issue: tls_options_mask uninitialized at 598.
  - Move initialization of 'tls_options_mask' up earlier so no paths to uninitialized use.

- sr_port/op_indincr.c - Issue: s is uninitialized at line 101
  - Only do put_tref() if something to put. While this leaves v undefined if there was an
    error, this does not matter because comp_fini() ignores v in that case.

- sr_port/stp_gcol_src.h - Issue: uninitialized value of cstr at line 1063.
  - Make sure cstr is initialized whether expansion succeeds or fails by moving point
    where cstr is set.

- sr_port/tcp_open.c - Issues: 1. resource leak - ai_ptr going out of scope at line 190.
                               2. remote_ai_head uninitialized at line 302.
			       3. calling close (gtm_close) without checking return value at
			          line 355.
			       4. resource leak - remote_ai_head out of scope at line 340.
  - Remove some old Tru64 stuff.
  - Remove unnecessary initialization of remote_ai_ptr.
  - Remove some unused variables.
  - Move hostname validation to client section and remove the conditional parsing of the
    host (required for client) which solves YottaDB#2.
  - Change close() to CLOSEFILE() macros which solves YottaDB#3.
  - Make sure to release linked list at ai_ptr which solves YottaDB#1.
  - Remove assert when erroring with timeout (now tested by online_bkup/online6). This was
    required since the tests in online6 now timeout instead getting GETADDRINFO for invalid
    passive hosts being specified.
  - Make sure release linked list at remote_ai_head (which solves YottaDB#4).

- sr_port/ydberrors.msg
  - Added TCPCONNTIMEOUT message as the other timeout messages didn't quite do what was
    needed. There were a couple util_out_print() timeout message in tcp_open() but it
    really needed to be a real error - especially since it was now being tested in a test
    (online_bkup/online6).

- sr_unix/anticipatory_freeze.c - Issue: Resource leak - handle goes out of scope at line 358.
  - Add an FCLOSE() and error check for same prior to module returns.

- sr_unix/bin_load.c - Issue: Several allocated blocks and buffers need cleanup when leave
  - Implement mechanism to track all of the allocated buffers and free any that are
    allocated if an error occurs or on normal routine return.

- sr_unix/cli_lex.c - Issue: retptr uninitialized at line 488 (return from module).
  - Initialize return value to null so is initialized when nothing is read.

- sr_unix/gtm_getpwuid.c - Originally had changes for an issue but backed those out but left
                           these changes intact anyway.
  - Removed an unneeded return value check from malloc (gtm_malloc does not return if
    no storage).
  - Reformatted an #ifdef block.

- sr_unix/gtmcrypt_entry.c - Issue: Resource leak - handle goes out of scope at line 135.
  - release/close the handle before return

- sr_unix/gtmrecv_end.c - Issue: jnlpool_strm_seqno[idx] uninitialized at line 194.
  - Only do the loop to dump the streams if the journal pool exists.

- sr_unix/gtmsecshr.c - Issue: Resource leak - procstrm goes out of scope at line 1026.
  - Close 'procstrm' before return on error.

- sr_unix/gtmsource_shutdown.c - Issue: maxindex is uninitialized at line 317.

                                  2. errlen is unintialized at line 466.
  - Errors aren't using the correct method of getting error out there. The 'errlen'
    var is only seldomly set. Change to use LEN_AND_STR() macro to provide length.

- sr_unix/mu_all_version_standalone.c - Issue: save_errno is unintialized at line 172.
  - Save 'errno' to 'save_errno' to initialize it for the error message.

                                to error returns (lines 118 and 123).
  - Add frees for bitmap_buffer and bp before error returns.

- sr_unix/trigger_source_read_andor_verify.c - Issue: rttabent uninitialized on line 356.
  - Initialize 'rttabent' to NULL
  - If not initialized, set 'rttabent' to our rtn_names list to begin search.

…le entries so prior actions like ZSTEP continue to work after the job interrupt is handled"

This reverts commit dc0b865.

The reason is that jobinterrupt_set() (which changes entries in the transfer table) is interrupt code
that can be called at arbitrary points in time, including if interrupted code is actually in the process
of changing the transfer table entries itself (for example while compiling a $ZSTEP action like the
C-stack below indicates).

 #0  jobinterrupt_set (dummy_val=0) at sr_port/jobinterrupt_event.c:92
 #1  0x00007ffff715a67a in xfer_set_handlers (event_type=1, set_fn=0x7ffff71bbe86 <jobinterrupt_set>, param_val=0) at sr_port/deferred_events.c:209
 #2  0x00007ffff71bbe70 in jobinterrupt_event (sig=10, info=0x7fffffff8d30, context=0x7fffffff8c00) at sr_port/jobinterrupt_event.c:65
 #3  <signal handler called>
 #4  op_zst_break () at sr_port/op_zst_break.c:38
 #5  0x00007ffff6ececcf in stkok16 () at sr_x86_64/op_bkpt.s:93

In this case, if we save the current transfer table (to later restore in xfer_reset_handlers()),
we could be restoring an inconsistent transfer table later which might not be a safe thing to do.
For example, if 5 transfer table entries are in the process of being changed and the SIGUSR1 interrupt
occurs after 2 entries have been changed but the remaining 3 have not, then we would save (and in turn
later restore) a transfer table state that is inconsistent.

The previous code always reset the transfer table to hardcoded normal values which effectively lose the
ZSTEP action but that was still consistent in itself. So it is considered an unsafe change and undone.

As for the original issue of #359, I found a workaround and that is to redo the ZBREAK/$ZSTEP action
while inside the $ZINTERRUPT code. That ensures the ZSTEP action continues to be active even after the
$ZINTERRUPT. That is considered good enough for now.

…back process

This is an issue identified based on a rare ideminter_rolrec/interrupted_rollback_or_recover subtest
failure. The test ran 4 rollbacks and killed all but the last one using kill -9 before they finished.
The last rollback failed an assert.

We were expecting the two seqnos to be 1 apart but they are way apart.

This is because had killed a prior rollback (the first rollback) just before it had finished the rollback.
Below is its log.

> cat ROLLBACK2_1.logx
.

Killed

The fact that it printed the RLBKJNSEQ and FILERENAME messages implies it was in mur_close_files()
when it was killed.

There is code in mur_close_files() where we reset various fields in "jpl" to reset the state of
the journal pool based on the post-rollback instance seqno. This code also needs to clear a few
2-phase-jnl-commit related fields so "mutex_salvage" when it comes in later (in this test, it came in
as part of the later rollback) after the kill -9 does not fail the above assert.

This failure can be easily reproduced by running an online rollback with the -resync qualifier to take back
the state of the instance to a prior seqno, setting a break point in "rel_lock()" and quitting from the
debugger once that break point is hit (this simulates kill -9 of online rollback). Reissuing the same online
rollback out of the debugger should show the assert failure. Reissuing the online rollback with a production
build did not show any issues so the suspicion is that this is a dbg-only issue hence no tracking is done
as a separate issue at gitlab.

In one run of the v53002/C9E04002596 subtest, the following assert failed.

And below was the C-stack at the time of the assert failure.

The assert at line 102 expects that if ever we are in mutex_deadlock_check() for the jnlpool, we better have
not opened any database file (i.e. non-NULL cs_addrs). Whereas in this call sequence clearly, we have a case
where while opening the database, we need to open the journal pool (because ydb_custom_errors env var is set)
and while opening the journal pool we notice a 32K semaphore counter overflow (artificially created by the test
system in this debug-run using ydb_db_counter_sem_incr env var) which results in getting a lock on the jnlpool
before making changes to the instance file and while trying to get the lock we notice it is being held by
some other process which is taking a long time so we go to mutex_deadlock_check() eventually for the jnlpool
and fail the assert while in the middle of a database open (so cs_addrs is non-NULL).

The assert is clearly wrong for this case.

The assert was only introduced in V6.3-001A in the below state.

assert((NULL == jnlpool.jnlpool_dummy_reg) || jnlpool.jnlpool_dummy_reg->open || (repl_csa->critical != criticalPtr));

And it was modified in V6.3-003 and V6.3-005 to add || conditions. Most likely to account for exceptions to
the assert as they were encountered.

I don't see the value in this assert so removing it.

Also corrected a pre-existing comment a few lines after the removed assert to reflect our renewed understanding
of the current failure possibility.

…secondary errors if primary error is out-of-memory

If already exiting, do not open any object/source directories (which could include relinkctl files)
as part of $ZROUTINES initialization. This avoids potentially nasty codepaths particulary if the
reason we are exiting is an out-of-memory.

We do not expect any user to run such extreme out-of-memory codepaths/tests so it is not considered
necessary to create a user-visible issue for this.

For example, below are two C-stacks that showed up in core dumps while running the
simpleapi/fatalerror2 subtest. In both cases, if we avoid the zro_init() call we can avoid
such cores.

…CK being called during exit handling

When a C program that spawned off multiple threads that used the SimpleThreadAPI (e.g. ydb_tp_st() etc.)
was deadlocked (due to a code issue), pressing Ctrl-C (SIGINT) did nothing so pressing Ctrl-\ (SIGQUIT)
to terminate the C program caused a MAXRTSERRDEPTH fatal error and resulted in a core dump.

Below is the actual output.

^C^\%YDB-F-MAXRTSERRDEPTH Error loop detected - aborting image with coreQuit (core dumped)

The corresponding C-stack follows.

The primary error was at #20 in send_msg_va() inside the PTHREAD_MUTEX_LOCK_IF_NEEDED macro.
The actual assert that failed inside the macro was the following.

sr_unix/gtm_multi_thread.h
---------------------------
     99                 /* We should never use pthread_* calls inside a signal/timer handler. Assert that */                    \
    100                 assert(!in_nondeferrable_signal_handler);                                                               \

We were in a signal handler handling a non-deferrable signal (Ctrl-\ aka SIGQUIT) and are about to do
a pthread_mutex_lock() library call which is a no-no.

If we are in an exit handler, it is possible for send_msg() to be needed (to log the signal that was received
etc.) but it is safer to not do any pthread activity since we cannot be sure if we are exiting while inside
a signal handler or not. Therefore the fix for this is to check if "process_exiting" global variable is TRUE
and if so, we skip all pthread* calls in the PTHREAD_MUTEX_LOCK_IF_NEEDED and PTHREAD_MUTEX_UNLOCK_IF_NEEDED
macros.

223                     INVOKE_RESTART;

It notices a restartable situation and therefore wants to signal that but in order to do that it
goes through the function rts_error_va() (frame #2) which tries to do a PTHREAD_MUTEX_LOCK_IF_NEEDED
and that is hung because the pthread mutex lock is held by some other thread.

Turns out this thread was obtained by this same thread in a prior restart (in rts_error_va) but
it was never released. Since all SimpleAPI and SimpleThreadAPI calls to rts_error_va() go through
ydb_simpleapi_ch(), that is where we should be releasing the pthread lock. We do that already but
towards the end of the function.  And in case of a TP restart (ERR_TPRETRY error code), we return
before reaching that point.

The main fix is to sr_unix/ydb_simpleapi_ch.c to move the PTHREAD_MUTEX_UNLOCK_IF_NEEDED macro to
the beginning of ydb_simpleapi_ch(). The pthread unlock logic that was already there did not use
the macro (code duplication) and is now removed.

While at this, various other issues were noticed and fixed.

* sr_unix/ydb_stm_thread.c
  1) It did not initialize the posix_timer_thread_id to be the worker thread.
  2) It did not initialize the thread_mutex global variable (which is what is used by the
     PTHREAD_MUTEX_LOCK_IF_NEEDED and PTHREAD_MUTEX_UNLOCK_IF_NEEDED macros). This is now done
     using a new INITIALIZE_THREAD_MUTEX_IF_NEEDED macro.

* sr_unix/gtm_multi_thread.c : This is the only place where the thread_mutex global variable was
  previously initialized. This now invokes the new INITIALIZE_THREAD_MUTEX_IF_NEEDED macro.

* sr_port/gtm_malloc_src.h : was_holder was being initialized incorrectly before invoking the
  PTHREAD_MUTEX_UNLOCK_IF_NEEDED macro just before issuing a MEMORY error. The consequences of this
  issue are that the pthread mutex lock would not be released by gtm_malloc() in case of a MEMORY error
  in case the call is done by when multi-threading is turned on. Since multi-threading was turned on
  only for MUPIP JOURNAL ROLLBACK/RECOVER, this is a non-issue until now when multi-threading is used
  due to support of ydb_malloc_t() in the SimpleThreadAPI.

* sr_unix/gtm_multi_thread.h : Defines the new INITIALIZE_THREAD_MUTEX_IF_NEEDED macro.

* Based on this, I was able to come up with a simple test case that demonstrates the same issue.

  ```m

  %YDB-F-ASSERT, Assert failed in sr_port/lvzwr_out.c line 97 for expression (MAX_STRLEN >= (length += ((zwr_sub_lst *)lvzwrite_block->sub)->subsc_list[n].actual->str.len))
  ```

* This failure happens only in a Debug build. A Release build runs fine and prints a long string
  corresponding to the contents of the subscripted local variable node `x(1,<2**20-long-string>)`
  in the zwrite format.

Issue
-----
* As part of dee9d0c, the following change happened where we started allowing sets of subscripted
  local variable nodes where each subscript is 1Mib long.

* Below is relevant text from the commit message of dee9d0c.

  ```
  Files that had merge conflicts but the V63003 change was discarded
  ------------------------------------------------------------------
  Reason for discard is mentioned below against each module.

  * sr_port/op_fnquery.c & sr_port/op_putindx.c
          --> GTM-6115/GTM-8792 in GT.M V6.3-003 release notes describes that only $QUERY
          --> on lvns with subscripts exceeding 1Mb in total length will be prohibited, not
          --> other operations like SET but the change in this module does the exact opposite.
  ```

* This meant YottaDB allowed SETs of lvns where each subscript was 1MiB long. Whereas GT.M did not.

  Below is an example using GT.M V7.0-005.

  GT.M only allows a subscript that is 5 bytes shorter than 1MiB when there is just 2 subscripts in
  the lvn. It does not allow a subscript that is 4 bytes shorter than 1MiB.

  ```m
  GTM>set x($justify(1,2**20-4))=""
  %GTM-E-MAXSTRLEN, Maximum string length exceeded

  GTM>set x($justify(1,2**20-5))=""

  GTM>
  ```

  But if one tries to use 3 subscripts, GT.M only allows a subscript that is 68 bytes short of 1MiB.

  ```m
  GTM>set x($justify(1,2,2**20-5))=""
  %GTM-E-MAXSTRLEN, Maximum string length exceeded

  GTM>set x($justify(1,2,2**20-67))=""
  %GTM-E-MAXSTRLEN, Maximum string length exceeded

  GTM>set x($justify(1,2,2**20-68))=""

  GTM>
  ```

  So the maximum allowed subscript length is dependent on other subscripts in the lvn.

* The assert that failed in `sr_port/lvzwr_out.c` is tied to this logic in GT.M and relies on the
  fact that a SET of such a lvn would have been disallowed in `sr_port/op_putindx.c`.

* But YottaDB allows each subscript to be 1MiB long since dee9d0c. Independent of other subscripts
  in the lvn.

* Therefore this assert should have been removed as part of dee9d0c but was missed out then.

Fix
---
* The assert is removed in this commit. Along with it, a debug-only variable `length` as well as some
  comments describing the reliance on the obsolete `sr_port/op_putindx.c` behavior also got removed.

    218                          return FALSE;
    219                  }
  ```

* What I suspect happened is that at line 155, we found `value` to be a non-zero value. This means a concurrent
  process is in phase2 of commit and some cache-record has a non-zero value of `cr->in_tend` pointing to that
  process id. But before we went to examine that particular cache-record in line 167, the concurrent process
  that was in the phase2 commit finished its phase2 commit and reset `cr->in_tend` back to 0. Therefore,
  we found no cache-record with a non-zero `cr->in_tend` in the `for` loop (lines 164 to 210). This means
  `any_blocked` was still set to FALSE when we came to line 211.

  And since we were holding crit when we entered `wcs_phase2_commit_wait()`, the variable `was_crit` was set
  to TRUE.

  Therefore, we were in a situation where `was_crit` was TRUE, `any_blocked` was FALSE and `curcr` was
  equal to `cr_top` because we scanned all the cache-records in the `for` loop of line 164.

  And because of this, we went inside the `if` at line 211 above and returned FALSE at line 218.

  And this caused the assert failure in the caller function.

  In this case, returning FALSE was incorrect. The comment at line 213 indicates that we found `no blocking pids`
  and that this indicates `that the wcs_phase2_commit_pidcnt is wrong`. But there is nothing wrong with the count.
  The count changed concurrently in between line 155 and 211 and we did not take that into account.

Fix
---
* The fix is simple and is to `re-check` the value of `cnl->wcs_phase2_commit_pidcnt` in line 211 after
  checking `any_blocked` and if it is still non-zero, only then return FALSE as it then clearly indicates
  something wrong with the `wcs_phase2_commit_pidcnt` counter.

* So we would continue to the next iteration of the outer `for` loop (based on the `lcnt` variable) and
  that iteration would see `value` to be 0 at line 155 and return TRUE at line 157 thereby avoiding this
  incorrect return.

Notes
-----
* In Debug builds, one would see an assert failure like in this case.

* In Release builds, this particular caller `ss_release()` does not do that but most other callers of
  `wcs_phase2_commit_wait()` would call `wcs_recover()` in case the process is already holding crit
  and the function returns FALSE. And that would effectively be a no-op since by that time the
  `wcs_phase2_commit_pidcnt` is already 0. One would see some syslog messages indicating the unnecessary
  cache recovery occurred but otherwise no user-visible symptoms should happen. Therefore, no issue
  number is assigned to this commit.

* Those files that show up as just `deleted:` in the output above need no changes in this commit.
  This is because they would have been automatically deleted in the prior commit itself as those
  files were already deleted in the YottaDB side and were deleted in GT.M V7.0-000 in the GT.M side.

* All files that show up as `deleted by us:` are deleted in this commit since those were deleted
  even before in the YDB git repository. That is a straightforward change. But each of these files
  needed to be reviewed to see if the GT.M changes to each file needs to be incorporated somewhere
  else in the YDB git repository. They are described below.
  - README : This file only has cosmetic changes in every GT.M release. No need to incorporate this
    into the README.md file (corresponding file in the YDB repository).
  - The following are all generated files and will be regenerated on the YDB side in a later commit
    so no need to incorporate any changes. The `sr_i386` files won't be regenerated as YottaDB does
    not support that architecture. Only the `sr_x86_64` files will be regenerated.
    - sr_i386/cmerrors_ctl.c
    - sr_i386/cmierrors_ctl.c
    - sr_i386/gdeerrors_ctl.c
    - sr_x86_64/merrors_ansi.h
    - sr_x86_64/merrors_ctl.c
  - sr_port/get_spec.c : This file was changed in the GT.M side to replace a `rts_error_csa()` call that
    issued a ERR_INVSPECREC error with the new `RTS_ERROR_CSA_ABT()` call. But as part of 0b74bdc, we
    had moved this error to only be issued from `mu_int_blk.c` and we use the `mu_int_err()` function to
    issue the error there. So no need to incorporate the GT.M changes.
  - sr_unix/Makefile.mk : This file was changed to issue a `UTF-8 mode library installation may fail if
    gtm_icu_version is not set` warning in the GT.M side. That warning had already been added to
    `YDBEncrypt/Makefile` in the YottaDB side as part of the first commit. So no need to incorporate the
    GT.M changes.
  - sr_unix/gtcmstub.c : This file was changed in the GT.M side to replace a `rts_error()` call with
    `RTS_ERROR_ABT()`. No other real change. Since this file itself has been deleted on the YottaDB side,
    no need to incorporate this otherwise cosmetic GT.M change.
  - sr_unix/gtm_startup_chk.c : The GT.M changes were
    - In the `gtm_chk_dist()` function to change `rts_error_csa()` with `RTS_ERROR_CSA_ABT` and remove the
      `CSA_ARG` from `CSA_ARG(NULL)` usages (as the first parameter). Those changes are now incorporated
      into `sr_unix/ydb_chk_dist.c` which is the corresponding YottaDB file.
    - `gtm_dist_len` was moved from being a local variable to a global variable. This change was not
      incorporated because I think it has a bug hidden inside. The `gtm_chk_dist()` function does a `realpath()`
      call on the string stored in `gtm_dist[]` global buffer and stores the result in a local variable
      `real_gtm_dist_path[]`. And then it does a `STRNLEN(real_dist, GTM_PATH_MAX, gtm_dist_len);` call
      where `real_dist` is a pointer to `real_gtm_dist_path[]`. This call will reset the global variable
      `gtm_dist_len` to the real path length of the path stored in `gtm_dist[]`. In case that happens to be
      a soft link that points to a much longer actual path name, `gtm_dist_len` after this point will
      contain the length of the much longer actual path name whereas `gtm_dist[]` will continue to point
      to the shorter soft link path name. The two will become out of sync. This can cause problems later when
      they are used for example in `sr_unix/secshr_client.c` where one copies this buffer using the out-of-sync
      length into the `gtmsecshr_path` buffer (e.g. `memcpy(gtmsecshr_path, gtm_dist, gtm_dist_len);`). In
      this case, `gtmsecshr_pathname.len` is set to include `gtm_dist_len` and so would hold an inflated value.
      And can cause confusing error messages. All of this only if `$gtm_dist` is a soft link to another path.
      In any case, all of this complexity can be avoided by not updating the global variable `gtm_dist_len`
      in this file and is why the GT.M change is not incorporated into `sr_unix/ydb_chk_dist.c`.
  - sr_unix/gtm_test_install.csh : This file was removed in the YottaDB side a while ago. So no need to
    incorporate any GT.M changes.
  - sr_unix/gtm_tls_impl.c : This file had been moved to YDBEncrypt/gtm_tls_impl.c (a different git repository)
    so I had to use the following commands to incorporate the changes.

    The following command (run in the YDB git repo) creates a patch file containing the GT.M V7.0-000 changes.

    ```sh
    cd YDB
    git show tags/V7.0-000 -- sr_unix/gtm_tls_impl.c > /tmp/patch
    ```

    The following command (run in the YDBEncrypt git repo) applies the patch to the YDBEncrypt repo file.

    ```sh
    cd YDBEncrypt
    patch -i /tmp/patch gtm_tls_impl.c
    ```

    The patch command produced the following output.

    ```
    Hunk #1 succeeded at 1 with fuzz 1.
    Hunk #2 succeeded at 711 (offset 37 lines).
    Hunk #3 FAILED at 827.
    Hunk #4 FAILED at 836.
    Hunk #5 succeeded at 1175 (offset 38 lines).
    Hunk #6 succeeded at 1386 (offset 41 lines).
    Hunk #7 FAILED at 1358.
    Hunk #8 FAILED at 1430.
    Hunk #9 succeeded at 1753 (offset 83 lines).
    4 out of 9 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file gtm_tls_impl.c.rej
    ```

    The 5 Hunks that succeeded needed no intervention. The 4 Hunks that FAILED needed more review/intervention.

    Let us take `Hunk #3` as an example.

    I looked at `gtm_tls_impl.c.rej` (created by the patch command) and found the first hunk there. This would
    be `Hunk #3` since that was the first FAILED Hunk in the above output. Below is the corresponding diff.

    ```diff
      @@ -827,8 +827,9 @@ STATICFNDEF gtmtls_passwd_list_t *gtm_tls_find_pwent(const char *input_env_name)

       int gtm_tls_store_passwd(gtm_tls_ctx_t *tls_ctx, const char *tlsid, const char *obs_passwd)
       {
      -	char			*env_name_ptr, env_name[PASSPHRASE_ENVNAME_MAX];
      -	int			env_name_len, obs_len;

       	gtmtls_passwd_list_t	*pwent_node;
       	passwd_entry_t		*pwent;
    ```

    The reason the patch failed is because the variables `env_name_ptr`, `env_name` and `env_name_len` have been
    removed in YDBEncrypt/gtm_tls_impl.c.

    So I discarded that part of the diff. But found that the type of `obs_len` has been changed from `int` to
    `size_t`.  Therefore manually incorporated just that change into YDBEncrypt/gtm_tls_impl.c.

    Similar analysis/incorporation was done for each FAILED Hunk in the above output.
    Once all FAILED Hunks were addressed, the following files were removed as they were no longer needed.
    - gtm_tls_impl.c.orig
    - gtm_tls_impl.c.rej

    At a high level, all GT.M changes were picked up from the FAILED Hunks (`Hunk 4`, `Hunk 7` and `Hunk 8`).

  - sr_unix/gtmcrypt_dbk_ref.c : Used the same procedure as described in the `sr_unix/gtm_tls_impl.c` bullet
    above, merged the GT.M changes from YDB to YDBEncrypt/gtmcrypt_dbk_ref.c.

  - sr_unix/gtmcrypt_dbk_ref.h : This one was also a YDB -> YDBEncrypt patch merge. This one succeeded without
    any FAILED Hunks.
  - sr_unix/gtmcrypt_pk_ref.c : This one was also a YDB -> YDBEncrypt patch merge. This one has 1 FAILED Hunk.
    Manually retrofitted GT.M change on the FAILED Hunk.
  - sr_unix/gtmcrypt_ref.c : This one was also a YDB -> YDBEncrypt patch merge. This one succeeded without
    any FAILED Hunks.
  - sr_unix/gtmcrypt_util.c : This one was also a YDB -> YDBEncrypt patch merge. This one has 1 FAILED Hunk.
    Manually retrofitted GT.M change on the FAILED Hunk.
  - sr_unix/gtmcrypt_util.h : This one was also a YDB -> YDBEncrypt patch merge. This one has 1 FAILED Hunk.
    Manually retrofitted GT.M change on the FAILED Hunk.
  - sr_unix/gtminstall.sh : This one was a YDB -> YDB patch merge. From sr_unix/gtminstall.sh to
    sr_unix/ydbinstall.sh. This one was complicated because in the GT.M side, they removed support for a
    specific ICU version when specifying `--utf8`. Previously one needed to specify `--utf8 default` or
    `--utf8 7.1` (to indicate ICU version 7.1 needs to be used etc.). Since the GT.M change to no longer
    require `default` made sense, that was picked to be retrofitted onto the YottaDB side. Since
    `--utf8 default` is used in a lot of places across various YDB repositories (see list below)
    and could be relied upon by some user, it was decided to continue supporting it but treat it as if
    `--utf8` was specified (i.e. without `default`).  But if the user specified `--utf8 7.1`, that will
    issue an error even in ydbinstall.sh as it is no longer a supported usage.

    In addition, found 8fe2516 had made a change to set `tmpdir` variable but the immediately next line used
    `$tmp` instead of `$tmpdir` to set `ydb_routines` env var. This clearly will result in a broken
    `ydb_routines` env var since `$tmp` will be the empty string in that case. But this did not break
    `ydbinstall.sh --plugins-only` so far so I concluded that setting `ydb_routines` was unnecessary altogether.
    So I removed that line instead of fixing the `$tmp` occurrence to `$tmpdir`.

    Additionally, I found a lot of `--utf8 default` usages across various repositories. Fixed all of those as
    well. The 2 `YDB` occurrences below were fixed in this commit. The occurrences in other repos were fixed in
    commits in those repos.

  - sr_unix/gtmprofile.gtc : This file was deleted on the YottaDB side a while ago (by 52822ee). The file
    `ydb_env_set` takes care of this functionality on the YottaDB side. The changes in the GT.M side for
    V7.0-000 to this file were to enhance error handling while trying to install GT.M with UTF-8 support. Such
    issues have already been ironed out in `ydb_env_set` for the YottaDB side so no need to incorporate any
    of this GT.M change into the YottaDB side.
  - sr_unix/kitstart.csh : This file deals with building the binary kits and has long been deleted on the
    YottaDB side.  So no need to incorporate the changes to this file on the GT.M side (which are to remove
    `dbcertify` from the binary kit and to take the `configure.gtc` interface change into account where it
    now expects one less answer due to icu version no longer being supplied to it).
  - sr_unix_cm/rc_mval2subsc.c : This file is almost a duplicate of `mval2subsc.c` and so was removed on
    the YottaDB side a while ago. The changes to this file in the GT.M side are to change `rts_error_csa`
    calls with `RTS_ERROR_CSA_ABT`. Those changes will also show up in `mval2subsc.c` and will be addressed
    there. So no need to incorporate any of the `rc_mval2subsc.c` changes on the YottaDB side.
  - sr_unix_gnp/libgnpserver.list : This file was removed on the YottaDB side (as part of bf577ff) as there
    was no need to maintain a list of files related to individual utilities. The GT.M side added a new function
    `gtcmtr_get_key` to this file. New files will automatically get linked in to `libyottadb.so` which is
    what all utilities `dlopen()` so there is no need to incorporate the GT.M change to the YottaDB side.

* All files that show up as `deleted by them:` are deleted in this commit since those were deleted
  in the GT.M repository. That is a straightforward change as we just need to delete them from the YottaDB side
  too.  Below is the list of those files.

Issue
-----
* The YottaDB SIG-15/SIGTERM signal handler got invoked for a SIG-15. But it noticed that all YottaDB
  exit handler code has already been run (`exit_handler_complete` global variable is TRUE). In that
  case, it invoked any non-YottaDB signal handler for SIG-15 and afterwards, it invoked `_exit()` to
  terminate the process (in line 187).

  **sr_unix/generic_signal_handler.c**
  ```c
    182         if (exit_handler_complete)
    183         {
    184                 if (!using_alternate_sighandling)       /* Go does not send us signals so no need to forward */
    185                 {
    186                         drive_non_ydb_signal_handler_if_any("generic_signal_handler1", sig, info, context, TRUE);
    187                         UNDERSCORE_EXIT(-sig);
    188                 }
    189                 return;         /* Nothing we can do if exit handler has run */
    190         }
  ```

* And because of the `_exit()` all, the CLANG/ASAN library ended up doing a `calloc()` call which hung
  waiting for a futex. Most likely due to re-entrant invocations of C library functions that are not
  async-signal safe.

* The cause of this is line 187 above in my opinion.

* If YottaDB exit handler has already run (as part of SIGTERM handling) and we are getting the SIGTERM signal
  again, then I don't see any reason to do the `_exit()` call (using the `UNDERSCORE_EXIT` macro in line 187).

* This code has been there for a long time but I don't think it is doing the right thing.

Fix
---
* Lines 184-188 are now removed in this commit. I think the right thing to do is to just return in case the
  YottaDB exit handler has already been invoked.

* With this change, I verified that the CLANG/ASAN tests run fine in YDBOcto. So at least one Simple API
  use case runs fine with the fix in this commit.

* Initially I thought of disabling lines 184-188 above only when ASAN is enabled. But then I realized it
  is a good change for all cases and so removed lines 184-188.

* The following query caused a SIG-11 in a Release build of YottaDB and an assert failure in a Debug build
  of YottaDB.

  ```

* A much simpler test case is provided below that does not rely on Octo and has the same issue.

  ```m
  $ cat gvsuboflow.m
  test	;
  	set $etrap="write $extract($zstatus,1,103),! set $ecode="""""
  	for max=1020:1:1050 do gvsuboflow(max)
  	quit

  gvsuboflow(max)	;
  	set x=$tr($justify(1,max)," ",1) w ^names(x)
  	quit
  ```

  **Release build output**

  ```

Issue
-----
* Running the above test case with a Release build of YottaDB, that also is built with ASAN, clearly showed
  where the memory overflow was happening. It was a `stack-buffer-overflow` in `gvsub2str.c`.

  ```

  ```

Fix
---
* The overflow in `gvsub2str.c` is fixed by ensuring that we never go past the buffer bounds by the use
  of a new `ptr_top` local variable. This is done in both cases where `xlat_flag` is TRUE and FALSE.

* Additionally, before calling `format2zwr()` in `gvsub2str.c`, we check if the zwrite expansion of
  the input (`in_length`) would be greater than the output length (`targ_len`). If so, we reduce `in_length`
  by enough so its zwrite expansion would not exceed `targ_len`. We use a new `ZWR_EXP_RATIO_INVERT` macro
  to get this value (it is the converse of the ZWR_EXP_RATIO macro). This is necessary to avoid failing
  a pre-existing assert in `format2zwr.c` that verifies all callers have allocated enough space in the
  output for the given input. In this case in `gvsub2str.c`, we cannot increase `targ_len` and so we
  truncate `in_length` enough so they are accepted by `format2zwr()`. This means we would see a truncated
  output but that is okay considering this usually would be part of a GVSUBOFLOW error which would show
  a huge subscript. Seeing the first few subscripts should be enough in that case for the user to figure
  out the problem and correct it. No need to see the entire input subscripts.

…INT/SIGQUIT handler more than once (fixes Ctrl-C to terminate Flask)

Background
----------
* We started seeing test failures in the `r140/ydbpython32` subtest (in the YDBTest project) on some
  in-house systems with the following diff.

  ```diff
  --- ydbpython32/ydbpython32.diff ---
  13d12
  < # %YDB-SUCCESS: Test successful
  ```

* Analysis revealed the following connection between the version of python on that system and whether
  the test passed on that system.

  ```
  Python 3.6.15    PASS
  Python 3.6.8     PASS
  Python 3.8.10    PASS
  Python 3.10.12   FAIL
  Python 3.11.2    FAIL
  Python 3.11.4    FAIL
  ```

* The above established that any system that had Python version later than `3.8.10` failed.

Issue
-----
* 773e989 and a few later commits made some fixes so a Ctrl-C terminates an interactive Simple API
  Flask application.

* It did this by invoking the `drive_non_ydb_signal_handler_if_any()` function which in turn invoked
  the user-defined signal handler for a `SIGINT` (the signal that gets sent on a Ctrl-C).

* But this function was being invoked `twice`.

* First with the following stack trace.

  ```c
  (gdb) where
  #0  drive_non_ydb_signal_handler_if_any (caller=0x7f13c4a256d3 "generic_signal_handler2", sig=2, info=0x7f13c4bbb878 <stapi_signal_handler_oscontext+3320>, context=0x7f13c4bbb8f8 <stapi_signal_handler_oscontext+3448>, drive_exit=0) at sr_unix/drive_non_ydb_signal_handler_if_any.c:32

  #2  ydb_os_signal_handler (sig=2, info=0x7fff4ec19df0, context=0x7fff4ec19cc0) at sr_unix/ydb_os_signal_handler.c:85

  #5  ?? ()
  #6  ?? ()
  #7  _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault ()
  .
  .
  ```

* And another (later invocation) with the following stack trace.

  ```c
  (gdb) where
  #0  drive_non_ydb_signal_handler_if_any (caller=0x7f13c4a4e58e "deferred_exit_handler", sig=2, info=0x7f13c4bbb878 <stapi_signal_handler_oscontext+3320>, context=0x7f13c4bbb8f8 <stapi_signal_handler_oscontext+3448>, drive_exit=1) at sr_unix/drive_non_ydb_signal_handler_if_any.c:32
  #1  signal_exit_handler (exit_handler_name=0x7f13c4a1e92e "deferred_exit_handler", sig=2, info=0x7f13c4bbb878 <stapi_signal_handler_oscontext+3320>, context=0x7f13c4bbb8f8 <stapi_signal_handler_oscontext+3448>, is_deferred_exit=1) at sr_unix/signal_exit_handler.c:81
  #2  deferred_exit_handler () at sr_unix/deferred_exit_handler.c:120

  #4  gtm_exit_handler () at sr_unix/gtm_exit_handler.c:216
  #5  __run_exit_handlers (status=0, listp=0x7f13c6276838 <__exit_funcs>, run_list_atexit=run_list_atexit@entry=true, run_dtors=run_dtors@entry=true) at ./stdlib/exit.c:113
  #6  __GI_exit (status=<optimized out>) at ./stdlib/exit.c:143
  .
  .
  ```

* This meant the user defined signal handler for `SIGINT` was invoked twice before the process terminated.
  While this was okay with the older python version, with the newer python version, this caused a
  SIGSEGV (observed in the debugger when the second invocation happened below at line 86).

  **sr_unix/drive_non_ydb_signal_handler_if_any.c**
  ```c
     82         /* Invoke signal handler based on whether SA_SIGINFO was specified as it means calling the handler with 3 or 1 arguments. */
     83         if (NULL != sighandler3)
     84                 (*sighandler3)(sig, info, context);     /* Note - likely to NOT return */
     85         else
  -> 86                 (*sighandler1)(sig);                    /* Note - likely to NOT return */
  ```

* In general it is not safe to invoke the same signal handler again for the same signal event.

Fix
---
* The fix is simple and is to avoid duplicate invocation of the user-defined signal handler for SIGINT
  (and in addition for SIGTERM and SIGQUIT too).

* This is done by resetting the original signal handler (stored at `ydb_init()` time) to `SIG_IGN`
  thereby a second invocation of `drive_non_ydb_signal_handler_if_any()` skips invoking the user-defined
  signal handler.

Background
----------
* We had one rare test failure during in-house testing. The `ideminter_rolrec/mupipstop_rollback_or_recover`
  subtest failed with the following symptom.

Issue
-----
* The assert failure was in the db_ipcs_reset() -> DB_LSEEKREAD -> DBG_CHECK_DIO_ALIGNMENT.

* The `DBG_CHECK_DIO_ALIGNMENT` macro had the following comment.

  ```c
     53         /* If we are using the global variable "dio_buff.aligned", then we better not be executing in timer     \
     54          * code or in threaded code (as we have only ONE buffer to use). Assert that.                           \
     55          */                                                                                                     \
     56         assert(((TREF(dio_buff)).aligned != (char *)(buff)) || (!timer_in_handler && !multi_thread_in_use));    \
  ```

* In the failure case, even though we are executing in timer code we are actually in exit handler code
  (as can be seen by the `forced_exit` and `exit_handler_active` variables in the gdb analysis above).
  In this case, the exit handler code will not return out of the timer code and so it is okay for the
  assert to not be TRUE.

* The global variable being checked in the assert is `timer_in_handler`. This is where the issue is.
  That global variable being TRUE just means the `timer_handler()` function is in the current call stack.
  It does not mean that we are handling a SIGALRM/timer signal and interrupting the mainline code.
  The assert is intended to protect against signal handler interrupting the mainline code. Therefore,
  the correct global variable to check in the assert is `in_os_signal_handler`.

Fix
---
* The fix is simple and is to use `in_os_signal_handler` instead of `timer_in_handler` in the assert.

…mplete deferred state setup before invoking xfer_set_handlers()

* After merging GT.M V7.0-001, the following tests failed in rare cases.
  - -t dual_fail_extend -replic -st dual_fail2_mustop_sigquit
  - -t v60000 -replic -st gtm4525b

* The failure symptom was the following.

* Line 186 sets `forced_exit` and Line 201 sets the corresponding deferred event. But Line 197
  ends up invoking `deferred_signal_handler()` which has an assert that expects Line 186 and 201 to
  have happened at the same time.

* This is fixed by moving lines 188-199 above to execute AFTER lines 200-203. That way the state setup
  of the forced exit is finished first and then the outofband set up happens by the
  `xfer_set_handlers_fnptr` call.

* Now that Lines 186 and 201 are executed BEFORE line 197 in this commit, the assert failure seen
  in the test failure should be automatically fixed.

  ```

* As the core analysis indicates, `max_fill` is 4 which is the reason the assert failed. And that happened
  at line 312.

* And this is because `old_blk1_sz` was a small value of `16`.

* But then I was wondering how come we got into the `if` at line 299 as we would get into it only if the
  block has lot of content and needs a split.

* Turns out the issue is that `reserve_bytes` is `4096` which is the same as `blk_size`. And so the
  right hand side of the `>` check in line 299 was 0 which is why the `if` succeeded even though
  `old_blk1_sz + delta` was only `16 + 56` i.e. 72 bytes, which is a lot less than the value that would
  usually require a block split.

* I then started looking at why `reserve_bytes` ended up being such a huge value when the file header
  field it mirrors (i.e. `cs_data->reserved_bytes`) is 0 as indicated in the gdb analysis above.

* That is when I realized this happened in the following line.

  **sr_port/mu_split.c**
  ```c
    233         reserve_bytes = i_max_fill;
  ```

* This is a bug that was introduced in GT.M V7.0-001 changes (52a92df) to `sr_port/mu_split.c`. And I see
  that this incorrect set of `reserve_bytes = i_max_fill` is removed in GT.M V7.1-000 (f9ca5ad).

* f9ca5ad has a lot more changes to support `mupip reorg upgrade` so I cannot cherry-pick that commit.

* Therefore, I am fixing this issue by removing line 233 in this commit.

* In addition, 895c2d3a had fixed some `clang-tidy` warnings in `sr_port/mu_split.c` related to the
  `reserve_bytes` variable. There was a block of code that set `reserve_bytes` BEFORE line 233. And
  that was flagged as a `[clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores]` warning. And so the previous block of
  code that set `reserve_bytes` was removed in 895c2d3a. And along with it, logic related to
  `available_bytes` was made `#ifdef DEBUG`. Both these changes are now removed in this commit as
  that previous block had correctly set `reserve_bytes = cs_data->reserved_bytes` (and is the line
  that remains even in GT.M V7.1-000 f9ca5ad). That said, the update of `available_bytes` inside
  the `#ifdef DEBUG` block continues to be used only by a later assert so that is still kept inside
  a `DEBUG_ONLY()` macro in the new code to avoid the following `clang-tidy` warning.

  ```
  mu_split.c:warning: Value stored to 'available_bytes' is never read [clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores]

  ```

* The value of `bml` is 512 at line 401 and `ydb_skip_bml_num` is a non-zero value. This means we are
  in the HOLE section of the database file and should never do a `t_qread()` call on such a block. But
  we did it at line 397 and is why we ended up with an assert failure.

* The value of `free_bml` is 1 at line 401.

* If `free_bml` was 1 at line 382, the `if` block would have kicked in and recognized this is a hole
  and counted the free blocks for the HOLE and then move on to the non-HOLE section of the database file
  using the `continue` at line 389 in a different iteration of the for loop.

* But this did not happen. Therefore, `free_bml` was 0 at line 382 but became 1 at line 401.

* This means that `free_bml` was 0 at line 382 and got set to 1 at line 395.

* That is, the `bmm_find_free()` call at line 392 was passed in `free_bml=0` as the first parameter
  and returned `bml=1`. That is, it found all blocks in bitmap block 0 as busy and so returned bitmap
  block 1 as that which has free space.

* In this case, we should redo the `if` check in lines 381-391 right after setting `free_bml` in line 395.
  That would take care of skipping the `t_qread()` call for bitmap blocks in the HOLE section.
  This is exactly what is taken care of in this commit.

Issue
-----
* As indicated in line 399 in the below code, the assert at line 400 is to make sure that we don't wait for
  an extended period of time in the REPL_RECV_LOOP at line 433. Hence the check for `poll_time` being 0
  or 10 milliseconds. Or that a TLS renegotiation is pending.

* But in the failure case, as the gdb analysis indicates, all variables in the `if` check at line 408 above
  evaluated to TRUE. That means `renegotiation_pending` would be set to `TRUE` at line 411 and so the
  assert at line 400 would have been TRUE if only we had delayed it a bit.

Fix
---
* The fix is simple and is to move lines 399-402 to AFTER line 431. That is, it just fixes the placement
  of this longstanding assert to address this timing scenario where a TLS renegotiation is pending.

Notes
-----
* The reason this started failing only after GT.M V7.0-001 code changes were merged is because in that
  version, lines 564-573 were added below which caused `next_renegotiate_hrtbt` to be set to TRUE. This
  variable was never set to TRUE in the prior version and so the `if` check at line 408 above never
  evaluated to TRUE.

…terrupts cause %YDB-E-STACKCRIT

Background
----------
* This is an issue identified by @shabiel while trying to reproduce some other issue. The next
  bullet is pasted from https://gitlab.com/YottaDB/DB/YDB/-/issues/1029#description.

* To reproduce this, start an M process in direct mode while it is at the `YDB>` prompt. And in
  another terminal send it a lot of repeated job interrupts (i.e. `mupip intrpt`), and then go
  back to the M process and type anything and press enter. Eventually, the process will crash
  with this:

  ```c
  YDB>%YDB-E-STACKCRIT, Stack space critical
  %YDB-F-ASSERT, Assert failed in sr_port/mdb_condition_handler.c line 1184
          for expression (!dollar_zininterrupt || ((int)ERR_ZINTRECURSEIO == SIGNAL))
  ```

* One needs to send repeated jobinterrupts to the same process. One easy way to do this is in tcsh
  using the following command from a different terminal. The below issues 10,000 interrupts to
  pid 52545.

  ```
  repeat 10000 $ydb_dist/mupip intrpt 52545
  ```

* One would see the assert show up in the original terminal.

Issue
-----
Below is pasted from https://gitlab.com/YottaDB/DB/YDB/-/issues/1029#note_1581268407

* The debugger shows it is a `STACKCRIT` error that in turn triggers an assert failure.

  ```

* I verified that with a Release/PRO build, there is no issue.

  ```c
  YDB>%YDB-E-STACKCRIT, Stack space critical
  %YDB-E-ERRWZINTR, Error while processing $ZINTERRUPT
  %YDB-E-ZINTDIRECT, Attempt to enter direct mode from $ZINTERRUPT
                  At M source location +1^GTM$DMOD
  ```

* The issue is in line 1184 which needs to take a STACKCRIT error into account in the assert.

Fix
---
* The following change should fix the failure in my understanding and is implemented in this commit.

  ```diff
  < assert(!dollar_zininterrupt || ((int)ERR_ZINTRECURSEIO == SIGNAL));
  > assert(!dollar_zininterrupt || ((int)ERR_ZINTRECURSEIO == SIGNAL) || ((int)ERR_STACKCRIT == SIGNAL));
  ```

* And it did fix the failure when I manually tested with the above change.

  ```

Issue
-----
* The SIG-11 is because `TREF(libyottadb_active_rtn)` tries to dereference the local copy of the global
  variable `gtm_threadgbl_true` which is stored in `lcl_gtm_threadgbl` but that is NULL.

* The reason it is NULL is because of a longstanding timing issue in `ydb_tp_st.c` as well as potentially
  other functions in the Simple Thread API.

* In the failing test, multiple threads are created in `YDBTest/simplethreadapi/inref/ydb550.c` and each
  thread does a call to `ydb_tp_st()` as the first call (it does not do a `ydb_init()`).

* The `SETUP_THREADGBL_ACCESS` at line 43 takes a copy of `gtm_threadgbl_true` into `lcl_gtm_threadgbl`.
  And then invokes the `LIBYOTTADB_RUNTIME_CHECK` macro at line 44.

  **sr_unix/ydb_tp_st.c**
  ```c
     41         DCL_THREADGBL_ACCESS;
     42
     43         SETUP_THREADGBL_ACCESS;
     44         LIBYOTTADB_RUNTIME_CHECK((int), errstr);
  ```

* But since `ydb_init()` has not been called yet, `lcl_gtm_threadgbl` would be NULL after line 43.

* Now inside the `LIBYOTTADB_RUNTIME_CHECK` macro, it is possible for 2 threads T1 and T2 to reach line 108
  below at the same time with `lcl_gtm_threadgbl` set to NULL in the `ydb_tp_st()` calls of both threads.

* Let us say one thread T1 finds `ydb_init_complete` as 0 and goes into the `if` block at line 108
  and does the `ydb_init()` call and later does the `SETUP_THREADGBL_ACCESS` call at line 120.
  This means that T1 would have updated `lcl_gtm_threadgbl` to a non-NULL value at line 120.

* Let us say the other thread T2 finds `ydb_init_complete` as non-zero at line 108 (because in the
  mean time thread T1 had done the `ydb_init()` call at line 111).  This means it would skip the
  `SETUP_THREADGBL_ACCESS` call at line 120 as well. And so it would continue to have a NULL value
  of `lcl_gtm_threadgbl`.

  When the macro returns from T2, this NULL value would cause the SIG-11 in a `TREF` access that is
  there in later portions of `ydb_tp_st.c`.

* Fortunately, all usages of `TREF` that I see in the normal code path are in debug-only code in
  `ydb_tp_st.c` (i.e. in asserts) and so this does not look like a Release build issue.

Fix
---
* The fix is to move the `SETUP_THREADGBL_ACCESS` call at line 120 from inside the `if` at line 108
  above to AFTER the `if` at line 108. That way both threads T1 and T2 will call `SETUP_THREADGBL_ACCESS`.

* While doing this, I noticed that various callers of the `LIBYOTTADB_RUNTIME_CHECK` macro currently do
  a `SETUP_THREADGBL_ACCESS` call already and those calls can be removed now that it is anyways done
  inside the `LIBYOTTADB_RUNTIME_CHECK` macro. This meant changes to various callers all of which were
  files implementing the Simple Thread API functions (i.e. ydb_*_t.c OR ydb_*_st.c OR
  `ydb_sig_dispatch()` which was invoked by the YDBGo wrapper also a Simple Thread API application).

* Additionally, a similar move of the `SETUP_THREADGBL_ACCESS` call was done inside the macro
  `LIBYOTTADB_RUNTIME_CHECK_NORETVAL` which is very similar to the `LIBYOTTADB_RUNTIME_CHECK` macro.

Issue
-----
* The assert failure in `bml_status_check.c` indicates that we found a block that was allocated in this
  transaction (in `bm_getfree.c`) but the local bitmap for that allocated block says the block is already
  marked `BUSY`. This is an out-of-design situation as only blocks marked `FREE` or `RECYCLED` in the
  local bitmap should be allocated.

* The C-stack and relevant variables from the core files using gdb are captured below.

  ```

* The debug-only `ydb_test_4g_db_blks` env var is enabled in this test run as `ydb_skip_bml_num` is set
  to a non-zero value (seen above).

* This means that after the local bitmap `0`, the next local bitmap that is used would be `0x320dd1200`.
  All blocks from `0x200` till `0x320dd11ff` will not be used by the database logic (i.e. there will be
  a huge hole in the database file) for block allocation.

* The `cw_set[0].blk` indicates the allocated block number is `0x320dd1bff`. But `cw_set[2].blk` indicates
  this allocation happened in the local bitmap block `0x320dd1c00`.

* Notice that the allocated block number actually is 1 less than the bitmap block number.

* This means that the allocated block was actually in the `previous` local bitmap. This is an out-of-design
  situation.

* The allocation happened in `bm_getfree.c` but the point of assert failure is much later.

Changes
-------
* There is logic in `bm_getfree.c` that finds a free bit in the local bitmap and stores it in a variable
  `free_bit`. In the failure case above, `free_bit` must have ended up with a value of `-1` (which also
  happens to be the value of the `NO_FREE_SPACE` macro) to result in the failure.

* It is not clear to me how this happened but I suspect this was possible only because of interactions
  with the debug-only `ydb_skip_bml_num` scheme.

* That is, my suspicion is that it is some issue in the `ydb_skip_bml_num` scheme.

* Towards better understanding how `free_bit` ended up with the `-1` value, this commit adds an assert
  that `free_bit` is never negative.

* In the test failure case above, we would have seen this new assert fail at a much earlier point thereby
  giving us a better core file to analyze.

* This commit enables us to better analyze such failures if/when they happen in the future (the cause is
  still unknown).

  ```

Issue
-----
* The assert that failed in `insert_region()` (frame 6 in above stack trace) indicates that we were in the
  final retry (i.e. `t_tries` is equal to `3` or `CDB_STAGNATE`) but we did not hold crit on the current
  region where we are trying to do an `mlk_unlock()` operation.

* The assert is valid and did expose an issue.

* In frame 16, in `mlk_lock()`, we did a `rel_crit()` call in the `TPNOTACID_CHECK` macro while in the
  final retry.

  **sr_port/mlk_lock.c**
  ```c
    120                         TPNOTACID_CHECK(LOCKGCINTP);
  ```

* Below is the code inside the macro.

  **sr_port/tp.h**
  ```c
     979 #define TPNOTACID_CHECK(CALLER_STR)                                                                                             \

     983                                                                                                                                 \
     984         if (IS_TP_AND_FINAL_RETRY)                                                                                              \
     985         {                                                                                                                       \
  -> 986                 TP_REL_CRIT_ALL_REG;                                                                                            \
     987                 assert(!mupip_jnl_recover);                                                                                     \
     988                 TP_FINAL_RETRY_DECREMENT_T_TRIES_IF_OK;                                                                         \
  ```

* Line 986 is where the issue is. We do a `rel_crit()` call there but `t_tries` is still not decremented.
  The decrement of `t_tries` happens 2 lines later at line 988.

* Before doing the `rel_crit()` call, we need to decrement `t_tries`. This way, in case `rel_crit()`
  decides to invoke exit handling due to handling a deferred SIGINT signal (sent in the `ydb464` subtest),
  the assert in `insert_region()` would not be confused by seeing this out-of-design state and will not
  attempt to invoke `t_retry()` etc. which is a no-no as we should not transfer control to M code as
  part of a TP restart while the process is about to terminate on receipt of a SIGINT signal.

Fix
---
* Notice that in `sr_port/t_commit_cleanup.c`, the `t_tries` decrement happens BEFORE the `rel_crit()`
  call.

  **sr_port/t_commit_cleanup.c**
  ```c
    288       if (CDB_STAGNATE <= t_tries)
    289               TP_FINAL_RETRY_DECREMENT_T_TRIES_IF_OK; /* t_tries untouched for rollback and recover */
      .
      .
    303               if (!csa->hold_onto_crit && csa->now_crit)
    304                       rel_crit(tr->reg);      /* Undo Step (CMT01) */
  ```

* In a similar fashion, in the `TPNOTACID_CHECK` macro in `sr_port/tp.h`, the `TP_REL_CRIT_ALL_REG` call
  should happen AFTER the `TP_FINAL_RETRY_DECREMENT_T_TRIES_IF_OK` call. And that is the fix.

* While doing this fix, I noticed a similar ordering issue in `sr_port/gvcst_init.c` and so fixed that too.

Notes
-----
* While this failure happened with a Debug build of YottaDB, I suspect there is an issue in the Release
  build of YottaDB too. But not sure exactly what the user-visible implications are. Even if so, it is
  likely to be not encountered in practice and so no user-visible issue is created for this.

  ```

* The test sends a SIGTERM (i.e. SIG-15) signal. This caused `outofband` variable to be set to
  `deferred_signal` in frame 17 above (`generic_signal_handler.c` inside the `SET_FORCED_EXIT_STATE` macro).

* And then the process was sleeping (due to a white-box test case in the test).

* At that point, it was holding crit and another process was waiting for this and so was about to send
  a `MUTEXLCKALERT` message. At this point, since the test framework had set the `gtm_procstuckexec` env
  var to `com/gtmprocstuck_get_stack_trace.csh`, that was invoked and it in turn invoked `^%YDBPROCSTUCKEXEC`
  which in turn sent a `SIGUSR1` signal (i.e. a `mupip intrpt`) to this very same process that was sleeping
  while holding crit.

* And at this point, the process got the assert failure because the `outofband` variable indicated that
  a `SIG-15` signal needs to be handled whereas the `event_type` variable indicated that the current
  out of band event is a `jobinterrupt` event.

Fix
---
* This seems like a valid scenario and I suspect the assert is invalid.

* I noticed that this very same assert has been removed in a later GT.M release V7.1-001.

* I assume GT.M noticed a similar issue but not while releasing V7.0-001 (which is what YottaDB master
  currently has merged) but when releasing a much later V7.1-001 version and fixed it then.

* Therefore, I am removing the assert that failed.

* This should let the `v61000/intrpt_wcs_wtstart` test run fine until GT.M V7.1-001 gets merged into

Background
----------
Below is pasted from https://gitlab.com/YottaDB/DB/YDB/-/issues/1041#description

* The `reorg_5/on_ntp_njnl_reorg` subtest (from the YDBTest project) failed with the following symptom
  in a rare in-house test run.

  ```
  %YDB-F-ASSERT, Assert failed in sr_port/bml_status_check.c line 72 for expression ((gds_t_acquired != cs->mode) || (BLK_BUSY != bml_status))
  ```

* The assert failure indicates that we found a block that was allocated in this transaction (in
  `bm_getfree.c`) but the local bitmap for that allocated block says the block is already marked
  `BUSY`. This is an out-of-design situation as only blocks marked `FREE` or `RECYCLED` in the local
  bitmap should be allocated.

* The cause of this failure was not ascertained when it first happened and so !1409 (d366c66) added
  an assert to try catch the failure early in `bm_getfree.c` (pre-commit) rather than much later in
  `bml_status_check.c` (in-commit).

* But even after !1409 got merged, we encountered another rare test failure with the same symptom. The
  failure still happened in `bml_status_check.c` and not in the expected `bm_getfree.c`.

* Therefore, the new failure was further analyzed and this time around the cause was finally identified. It
  turned out to be a `mupip reorg -truncate` issue that can result in assert failures in Debug builds
  and database damage in Release builds.

* But for this subtle timing issue to happen, a database file extension needs to happen concurrently
  among many things.

* Below is an example mupip integ report from the damaged database after the `mupip reorg -truncate`
  in a manual test that I did.

  ```

* Notice `mu_swap_root()` in the stack. It was seen as a caller in all failures so far where the symptom
  was an assert failure in `bml_status_check.c`.

* This specific function (that is called by `mupip reorg -truncate`) turned out to be where the issue is
  and not the general purpose function `bm_getfree.c` (like was suspected in d366c66).

* This function does block allocation, just like `bm_getfree.c`. But there is a subtle difference between
  the two which is what led me to the issue.

  **sr_port/bm_getfree.c**
  ```c
    306            free_bit = bm_find_blk((int4)offset, (sm_uc_ptr_t)bmp + SIZEOF(blk_hdr), map_size, blk_used);
      .
    311    if (NO_FREE_SPACE != free_bit)
    312            break;
  ```

  **sr_unix/mu_swap_root.c**
  ```c
    341         master_bit = bmm_find_free((hint_blk_num / BLKS_PER_LMAP), csa->bmm, num_local_maps);
    342         if ((NO_FREE_SPACE == master_bit))
      .
    360     free_bit = bm_find_blk(hint_bit, bmlhist.buffaddr + SIZEOF(blk_hdr), maxbitsthismap, &free_blk_recycled);
    361     free_blk_id = bmlhist.blk_num + free_bit;
  ```

* `bm_getfree.c` invokes `bm_find_blk()` to find a free block in the local bitmap and stores the result in
  `free_bit`. It then checks whether that indicates no free space (`NO_FREE_SPACE`) and if so it moves
  on to another local bitmap.

* `mu_swap_root.c` does a call to `bm_find_blk()` as well to find a free block but does no `NO_FREE_SPACE`
  check.

* This is where the issue is.

* If `free_bit` turns out to be `NO_FREE_SPACE`, we will end up setting `free_blk_id` (line 361 above)
  as 1 block BEFORE the current local bitmap block. This would mean we would consider a block in the
  previous bitmap as the FREE block and use it for the swap operation. If that block happens to be
  already used in some other global variable tree, then we would end up with integrity errors once the
  incorrect swap operation completes.

* In order to end up in this situation, what is needed is that we find the local bitmap has free space
  in the master bitmap (line 341 above) but when we look inside the local bitmap block we find that
  it has no free space.

* I initially tried to see if I can concurrently have a process do a transaction that allocates a block
  and ends up marking this local bitmap as full in the master map (in `bm_update()`). But in that case,
  I noticed that the `mu_swap_root()` function ended up restarting the transaction because it noticed
  the local bitmap block contents changed concurrently (restart code `cdb_sc_bmlmod`).

* After some trial and error, finally landed on the needed last link in this puzzle. And that is a
  database file extension which concurrently happens.

* It is possible the last local bitmap in a database file could have its status marked as `Full` even
  though it is only a partial bitmap (because the total block count stops midway in the local bitmap).

* When a database file extension happens on this partial last bitmap, it would mark this bitmap from
  `Full` status to having `Free space` (line 561 below).

  **sr_unix/gdsfilext.c**
  ```c
    556         cs_addrs->ti->free_blocks += blocks;
    557         cs_addrs->total_blks = cs_addrs->ti->total_blks = new_total;
    558         blocks = old_total;
    559         if (blocks / bplmap * bplmap != blocks)
    560         {
    561                 bit_set(blocks / bplmap, MM_ADDR(cs_data)); /* Mark old last local map as having space */
  ```

  **sr_unix/mu_swap_root.c**
  ```c
    339         total_blks = csa->ti->total_blks;
      .
    341         master_bit = bmm_find_free((hint_blk_num / BLKS_PER_LMAP), csa->bmm, num_local_maps);
    342         if ((NO_FREE_SPACE == master_bit))
      .
    360     free_bit = bm_find_blk(hint_bit, bmlhist.buffaddr + SIZEOF(blk_hdr), maxbitsthismap, &free_blk_recycled);
    361     free_blk_id = bmlhist.blk_num + free_bit;
  ```

* Given that, the timing of the `mupip reorg -truncate` (in `mu_swap_root.c`) and `mupip extend`
  (in `gdsfilext.c`) processes has to such that line 339 above in `mu_swap_root.c` takes a note of
  `total_blks` BEFORE line 556 is reached by `gdsfilext.c` but line 341 in `mu_swap_root.c` should
  happen AFTER line 561 is done by `gdsfilext.c`.

  When this occurs, `mu_swap_root.c` will incorrectly proceed at line 360 with a `free_bit` value of `-1`
  which would then cause a block from the previous bitmap to be allocated and the commit validation
  logic would not restart the transaction in this situation ending up in database damage.

Fix
---
* The fix is simple and is to check the return value of `bm_find_blk()` (stored in `free_bit` variable)
  for `NO_FREE_SPACE` and if so restart the transaction.

* This turned out to be an interesting failure. The underlying issue is that a TLS renegotiation was
  pending for more than a minute (due to the receiver not replying to the REPL_RENEG_ACK_ME message
  from the source server for more than a minute) so the next TLS renegotiation became pending since
  the renegotiate_interval was 1 minute. And that scenario was not handled correctly resulting in the
  assert failure.

Fix
---
* This turns out to be an issue that is fixed in GT.M V7.0-002.

  http://tinco.pair.com/bhaskar/gtm/doc/articles/GTM_V7.0-002_Release_Notes.html#GTM-DE197637428

* I noticed the below code changes in GT.M V7.0-002 implements the above fix.

  ```

* The assert in lines 288-290 checks that if the region where the restart happened is a statsdb region,
  then the current `$reference` (i.e. `gv_currkey`) should point to `^%YGS`, the global name that maps
  to the statsdb region. And vice versa.

* But in this case, the global name is `^%jobwait` which is not `^%YGS`.

* This is a case where the statsdb region had a tp restart due to a statsdb file extension scenario
  and the restart status code was `cdb_sc_helpedout` (see first occurrence in sr_port/tp_tend.c).
  In this case, the restart did not occur as part of a global reference, but as part of TCOMMIT and so
  we are not guaranteed that the most recent global reference (`gv_currkey`) would point to a statsdb
  global name. Therefore, this assert is not necessarily correct.

* Since restarts are possible in various scenarios other than as part of the current global reference,
  this assert could fail in other scenarios too.

* This assert was introduced in GT.M V6.3-008.

Fix
---
* Not sure the assert serves much purpose so am removing this inaccurate assert in this commit.

Issue
-----
* The issue is in `sr_unix/mu_rndwn_file.c` where we `free(tsd)` and later make a call to the
  `UNLINK_STATSDB_AT_BASEDB_RUNDOWN` macro which is passed the parameter `csd` which is the same as
  the copy of `tsd`.

Fix
---
* The fix is simple and is to move the `free()` call to AFTER the macro call.

…ABANDONED (fixes GTM-9400 for real)

Background
----------
The below is pasted from https://gitlab.com/YottaDB/DB/YDBTest/-/issues/550#note_1733171439

* While trying to test YDBTest#550, I noticed that the KILLABANDONED error happens even with V7.0-001
  whereas the GTM-9400 release note in GT.M V7.0-001 indicates this as being fixed in V7.0-001.

* Below is the test case (using `tcsh`, not `sh`) that stops after a few seconds with a `KILLABANDONED`
  error with V7.0-000 as well as with V7.0-001.

  ```sh
  cat > kill.csh << CAT_EOF
  while (1)
          k15 reorg
          if (-e STOP) then
                  break
          endif
  end
  CAT_EOF

  rm -f STOP
  unsetenv ydb_gbldir
  setenv gtmgbldir mumps.gld
  rm -f mumps.gld mumps.dat
  $gtm_dist/mumps -run GDE exit
  $gtm_dist/mupip create
  $gtm_dist/mumps -run %XCMD 'for i=1:1:100000 set ^x(i)=$j(i,200)'
  source kill.csh &
  while (1)
          foreach fillfactor (50 10 90)
                  $gtm_dist/mupip reorg -fill=$fillfactor -region DEFAULT
                  $gtm_dist/mupip integ -reg "*"
                  if ($status) then
                          touch STOP
                          break
                  endif
          end
          if (-e STOP) then
                  break
          endif
  end
  ```

Issue
-----
* I added an assert in `secshr_db_clnup.c` where it invoked the `INCR_ABANDONED_KILLS` macro and ran
  the above test to see the cause of the above `KILLABANDONED` error.

* With that change, I got an assert failure (in line 446 below) and the core file showed the below
  stack trace.

  the mupip reorg code flow where we are guaranteed the kill-in-progress condition has been cleared
  (i.e. DECR_KIP has been called).

* But what it did not realize is that even before those logical points are reached, it is possible
  for `t_end.c` to invoke the `REVERT` macro which in turn would invoke `deferred_signal_handler` like
  is seen in the above stack trace.

* Not sure how this did not get caught during the GT.M testing.

Fix
---
* In any case, the fix is simple and is to enhance `sr_port/deferred_signal_handler.c` to not invoke
  `deferred_exit_handler()` but instead `return` in case we are a `mupip reorg` process (indicated by
  the boolean_t typed `mu_reorg_process` global variable being TRUE) and we are in the middle of a
  kill-in-progress (indicated by `cs_data->kill_in_prog` being TRUE).

* This way, we delay the deferred signal handling of the `MUPIP STOP` (aka `SIG-15`/SIGTERM) a little
  more until the logical point in `sr_port/mu_reorg.c` or `sr_unix/mu_swap_root.c` is reached where
  the `DEFERRED_EXIT_REORG_CHECK` macro is invoked.

Background
----------
* The `v60001/concbkup` subtest in the YDBTest project tests that a `BKUPRUNNING` message is issued
  by a concurrent mupip backup.

* This test starts 1000 `mupip backup` commands in the background and 1000 `mupip backup` commands in
  the foreground.

* The foreground backup is started with the `gtm_white_box_test_case_number` env var set to
  `WBTEST_CONCBKUP_RUNNING` (i.e. `83`). This causes it to sleep for 1 second thereby increasing
  the likelihood of the background backup finding the foreground backup running and therefore issuing
  the `BKUPRUNNING` message.

* But once in a while, this test failed with the following diff.

  ```diff
  concbkup took 00:00:25:00 from 2024.01.22.16.51.06.EST to 2024.01.22.17.16.06.EST : 31428 FAIL
  --- concbkup/concbkup.diff ---
  6d5
  < %YDB-E-BKUPRUNNING, Process ##PID## is currently backing up region DEFAULT. Cannot start another backup.
  ```

Issue
-----
* After an elaborate analysis, I found that the background backup process (which does not run with the
  white-box env var set) spends the time waiting for one of the below 2 locks whenever the test fails.
  - db crit
  - shmpool hdr lock

* Below were the corresponding stack traces.
  - **db crit**
    ```c
    #2  __pthread_mutex_clocklock_common (mutex=0x7f9059a4d008, clockid=0, abstime=0x7ffe0befbe70) at ./nptl/pthread_mutex_timedlock.c:253
    #3  gtm_mutex_lock (reg=0x555882b94170, mutex_spin_parms=0x7f9059fdf054, crash_count=0, mutex_lock_type=MUTEX_LOCK_WRITE, state=WS_10) at sr_unix/mutex.c:777
    #4  grab_crit (reg=0x555882b94170, state=WS_10) at sr_unix/grab_crit.c:121
    #5  mupip_backup () at sr_port/mupip_backup.c:960
    ```
  - **shmpool hdr lock**
    ```c
    #1  m_usleep (useconds=1000) at sr_unix/sleep.c:37
    #2  wcs_sleep (sleepfactor=1) at sr_port/wcs_sleep.c:28
    #3  shmpool_lock_hdr (reg=0x564318e17170) at sr_port/shmpool.c:348
    #4  mubclnup (curr_ptr=0x0, stage=need_to_del_tempfile) at sr_port/mubclnup.c:124
    #5  mupip_backup () at sr_port/mupip_backup.c:1567
    ```

* That is when I realized that the placement of the `LONG_SLEEP` macro invocation (to sleep 1 second in
  the `WBTEST_CONCBKUP_RUNNING` white-box case) is incorrect.

* It is placed in a section of the code where we hold the `db crit` and the `shmpool hdr` lock. This greatly
  increases the chance of the background backup process needing the lock and in turn sleeping instead of
  issuing the BKUPRUNNING error like the test wants.

Fix
---
* The white-box code is now moved from the current location (in `sr_port/mupip_backup.c`) to a few lines
  later where we hold neither of the 2 locks. This should let the sleep continue to happen in the foreground
  backup process and at the same time increases the chances of the background backup process not needing
  either of the 2 locks and therefore issuing the BKUPRUNNING error.

Notes
-----
* Without the fix, running 6 parallel set of 10 tests of the `v60001/concbkup` subtest on all the in-house
  systems resulted in around a dozen failures.

* With the fix, there were NO failures. And the test finished a lot faster too implying the BKUPRUNNING
  error was encountered a lot earlier and needed only a small fraction of the maximum of 1000
  foreground/background backup process invocations.

Issue
-----
* The reorg process that assert failed was sent a `mupip stop` by the `gtm9400` subtest.

* From the failure symptoms noted above, what happened is that the `mupip stop` got delivered AFTER
  line 321 below (when `intrpt_ok_state` was `INTRPT_OK_TO_INTERRUPT`) but before line 322.

  **sr_port/have_crit.h**
  ```c
      314 /* Restore deferrable interrupts back to the state it was at time of corresponding DEFER_INTERRUPTS call */
      315 #define ENABLE_INTERRUPTS(OLDSTATE, NEWSTATE)                                                   \
      316 {                                                                                               \
      317         if (!multi_thread_in_use)                                                               \
      318         {                                                                                       \
      319                 assert(OLDSTATE == intrpt_ok_state);                                            \
      320                 intrpt_ok_state = NEWSTATE;                                                     \
      321                 if (INTRPT_OK_TO_INTERRUPT == intrpt_ok_state)                                  \
      322                         DEFERRED_SIGNAL_HANDLING_CHECK_TRIMMED;                                 \
      323                                 /* check if signals were deferred in deferred zone */           \
      324         }                                                                                       \
      325 }
  ```

* And as part of processing the `mupip stop`, the below code (newly introduced as part of incorporating
  GTM-9400 in GT.M V7.0-001 in commit 5ae98ef) set `intrpt_ok_state` to `INTRPT_IN_KILL_CLEANUP`.

  **sr_unix/generic_signal_handler.c**
  ```c
      320                                 /* If nothing pending AND we have crit or in wcs_wtstart() or already in exit processing, wait to
      321                                  * invoke shutdown. wcs_wtstart() manipulates the active queue that a concurrent process in crit
      322                                  * in bt_put() might be waiting for. interrupting it can cause deadlocks (see C9C11-002178).
      323                                  */
      324                                 if (mu_reorg_process && OK_TO_INTERRUPT && cs_data && cs_data->kill_in_prog)
      325                                         DEFER_INTERRUPTS(INTRPT_IN_KILL_CLEANUP, prev_intrpt_state);    /* avoid ABANDONEDKILL */
  ```

* Therefore, when the `DEFERRED_SIGNAL_HANDLING_CHECK_TRIMMED` macro (in line 322 of the `ENABLE_INTERRUPTS`
  macro was invoked, `intrpt_ok_state` had a value that was not `INTRPT_OK_TO_INTERRUPT` and failed
  the assert at line 40 below.

  **sr_port/deferred_signal_handler.c**
  ```c
       40         assert(INTRPT_OK_TO_INTERRUPT == intrpt_ok_state);      /* DEFERRED_SIGNAL_HANDLING_CHECK_TRIMMED ensures this */
  ```

Fix
---
* Commit 57006c9 fixed `GTM-9400` for real (see commit message there for detail).

* All that is needed is for the failing assert to account for this new possibility. And that is done
  by adding a `||` condition in this commit.

Issue
-----
* The issue is very similar to that described in the commit message of 03ef86c.

* The new usage of `MEMCMP` happens in `sr_port/iosocket_iocontrol.c` line 502 (frame 2 in above listing)
  and is newly introduced as part of merging GT.M V7.0-001 code changes.

Fix
---
* The fix is very similar to that in 03ef86c and is to ensure `option_buf` is a null-terminated string
  and use `strcmp()` instead. According to coding convention, `STRCMP()` is used instead of `strcmp()`.

…item.c (regression in GT.M V7.0-002)

Background
----------
* After merging GT.M V7.0-002, I noticed various tests failed with the following symptom when
  run with a YottaDB that was built with ASAN.

  ```

Issue
-----
* GT.M V7.0-002 added an `if` block to `sr_port/expritem.c` that checked if the opcode was `$zchar`
  or `$char`. And did some special handling for `NUMOFLOW`.

* But this logic assumed `index` pointed to a valid intrinsic function.

* It is possible the user specified an invalid intrinsic function like is done in various tests in
  the test system.

  For example `write $zysufff(...)` is done in `YDBTest/r132/u_inref/ydb391.csh` where `$zysufff`
  is an invalid function.

* In such cases, `index` would have the value `-1`. And so using this as an index into an array
  is not valid.

* While this might work without issues in practice, ASAN is picky and issues an error.

Fix
---
* The fix is simple and is to check for valid `index` (i.e. `0 <= index`) and only if so do the
  `if` check that GT.M V7.0-002 introduced.

…ofband_clear.c)

Background
----------
* After GT.M V7.0-002 changes were merged, the `r130/ydb560` subtest started failing with the
  following symptom.

  ```
  %YDB-F-ASSERT, Assert failed in sr_port/outofband_clear.c line 43 for expression (TRUE == status)
  ```

* A simple way to reproduce this issue is to run the following and in a parallel terminal send
  a `kill -4` to the `mumps` process (that is stuck in the `hang` command).

  ```sh
  $ cat test.m
   set x=1
   hang 100

  $ mumps -run test
  ```

* Before V7.0-002 merge, one would see just 1 core file (due to the `kill -4`). But after the
  merge, one would see 3 core files. And the 2nd core file had the following stack trace.

  (gdb) p outofband
  $1 = 11

  (gdb) p (enum outofbands)outofband

  ```

Issue
-----
* The issue was that `xfer_reset_if_setter()` had been reworked in GT.M V7.0-002. And that caused the
  handling of the `deferred_signal` type of outofband (which is a YottaDB-only value, unknown to the
  GT.M code base) not be handled correctly.

* The reason why `xfer_reset_if_setter()` returned FALSE in line 42 above is that the `event_state`
  for `deferred_signal` event_type at line 249 below was `pending`. Not `active` and so the call to
  line 250 got skipped. That would have done the real reset that was needed.

  **sr_port/deferred_events.c**
  ```c
    212 boolean_t xfer_reset_if_setter(int4 event_type)
      .
    249     if (res = (active == TAREF1(save_xfer_root, event_type).event_state))   /* WARNING: assignment */
    250             res = (real_xfer_reset(event_type));
  ```

Fix
---
* The fix was to set the event_state for `deferred_signal` outofband to `active` in `deferred_signal_set()`
  just like it is done for `jobinterrupt` outofband in `jobinterrupt_set()`.

* After this change though, an assert in line 370 below (in the `async_action()` function) failed.

  **sr_port/deferred_events.c**
  ```c
    350 void async_action(bool lnfetch_or_start)
      .
    358         if (jobinterrupt == outofband)
    359         {
      .
    367                 TAREF1(save_xfer_root, jobinterrupt).event_state = pending;     /* jobinterrupt gets a pass from the assert below */
    368         } else if (!lnfetch_or_start)
    369         {       /* something other than a new line caugth this, so  */
    370                 assert(pending >= TAREF1(save_xfer_root, outofband).event_state);
    371                 TAREF1(save_xfer_root, outofband).event_state = pending;        /* make it pending in case it was not there yet */
    372         }
  ```

  I noticed that `jobinterrupt` gets special handling in line 367. So decided to have special handling
  for `deferred_signal` as well. But the special handling is different here in that we do not modify
  the `event_state` (like is done for `jobinterrupt` in line 367 above) for the `deferred_signal` case.
  Just that we skip lines 370-371.

* With the changes in the above 2 bullets, the simple test case shown above started working fine in that
  it only generated 1 core file (not 3 core files).

…er call in ss_initiate)

Background
----------
* When run with a Debug build of YottaDB, a `mupip integ` failed as follows.

  ```c
  %YDB-F-ASSERT, Assert failed in sr_unix/gt_timers.c line 504 for expression ((INTRPT_OK_TO_INTERRUPT == intrpt_ok_state) || (INTRPT_IN_DB_CSH_GETN == intrpt_ok_state) || (INTRPT_IN_GDS_RUNDOWN == intrpt_ok_state))
  ```

Issue
-----
* The issue is that GT.M V7.0-005 added a `START_JNL_FILE_CLOSE_TIMER_IF_NEEDED` call to
  the `SET_SNAPSHOTS_IN_PROG` macro as can be seen in the below diff.

  ```diff
  $ git show -U0 tags/V7.0-005 sr_port/gdsfhead.h
  @@ -4187 +4187 @@ MBSTART {
  -#define SET_SNAPSHOTS_IN_PROG(X)	((X)->snapshot_in_prog = TRUE)
  +#define SET_SNAPSHOTS_IN_PROG(X)	MBSTART { (X)->snapshot_in_prog = TRUE; START_JNL_FILE_CLOSE_TIMER_IF_NEEDED; } MBEND
  ```

* This caused the assert failure in the following code (which is present only in YottaDB, not in GT.M).

  **sr_unix/gt_timers.c**
  ```c
    501         } else if (jnl_file_close_timer_fptr == handler)
    502         {       /* Account for known instances of the above function being called from within a deferred zone. */
    503                 assert((INTRPT_OK_TO_INTERRUPT == intrpt_ok_state) || (INTRPT_IN_DB_CSH_GETN == intrpt_ok_state)
    504                         || (INTRPT_IN_GDS_RUNDOWN == intrpt_ok_state));

Fix
---
* Now that we know this is expected, the above value is also added as an accepted value in the assert.

Background
----------
* In internal testing, we noticed a rare failure in the `v51000/mu_bkup_stop` subtest
  where a `mupip backup` process that was sent a `SIGTERM` (by the test) ended up
  creating a core file due to ASAN assert failing on a double free.

* Below are relevant details from the core file.

  ```c
  Core was generated by `mupip backup -online -dbg * ./49181_online1'.
  Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Issue
-----
* We did a `free(ptr->backup_hdr)` at line 103. And that in turn ended up using the system `free()`
  function because the test framework had randomly set the `gtmdbglvl` env var to a value of
  `0x80000000`.

* So at line 1485 above, the system free finished but at line 1486 we noticed the SIGTERM that was
  deferred and so decided to handle it. But the `ptr->backup_hdr` variable was still set to a
  non-NULL value so as part of the deferred exit handler, we tried to free this again resulting
  in the double free.

Fix
---
* The fix is to note `ptr->backup_hdr` in a local variable and clear the former and then attempting
  the `free()` on the local variable. This way if we decide to do deferred exit handling after the
  `free()` occurred, we will notice a NULL value of `ptr->backup_hdr` and so avoid the double free.

Notes
-----
* This is considered a too rare a race condition to be encountered in practice and so it is expected
  to not be noticed by a user. Therefore no YDB issue is created for this.

Background
----------
* This is an issue in c087690 that was found by YDBTest@a8eaadc4 (YDBTest!2075).

* When YottaDB was built with ASAN, running the `r202/shebang-ydb1084` subtest gave the
  following error.

Issue
-----
* `TREF(dollar_zroutines)` is an mstr. That is, it has a `.addr` and `.len` field. It is not a
  null-terminated string. But it was used as one in the following line where the last `%s` in the
  SNPRINTF command corresponds to that.

  **sr_port/ydb_shebang.c**
  ```
  186     SNPRINTF(new_zro, space_needed, "%s(%s) %s", buf, rtn_path, (TREF(dollar_zroutines)).addr);
  ```

* This caused `snprintf` to treat it as a null terminated string and access the null byte as part
  of its processing. And that caused ASAN to fail with the `heap-buffer-overflow` error.

Fix
---
* The fix is simple and is to not treat it as a null terminated string in the `snprintf` command.
  And that is easily achieved by using a `%.*s` instead of a `%s` (it now requires passing the
  length in addition to the char pointer).
