Just came through the shell list on opensolaris.org.
I can confirm that the bug occurs for simple statements like:
fle...@meridian:~/ksh93/docsvn/doc$ (while true ; do true | true ;
done)
^Z^Z^Z^Z^Z^C
fle...@meridian:~/ksh93/docsvn/doc$ jobs
[1] + Stopped(SIGTTOU) (while true ; do true | true ; done)
Multiple attempts to stop the process failed and the ^C didn't kill
it. The process is hanging in a ioctl() call:
fle...@meridian:~/ksh93/docsvn/doc$ pstack 27378
27378: -ksh93
ffffffff7f0c7c70 ioctl (2, 7415, ffffffff7fffb38c)

Hi!
Yesterday while debugging a shell script I think I may have found a bug
in ksh93 from sNV b124.
The script is basically checking a large list of DNS hostnames for ones
that already end in a '.'. I've boiled it down to a simpler test case:
while true; do if ! echo gretsch-p21-396 | grep '\.$'; then true; else
echo false; fi; done
If I run the above line at the shell prompt, for a long period of time I
get no ouput at all, which is to be expected. However, pretty regularly
rhe shell will be 'stopped' (as if I'd hit CTRL-Z) and I'll be returned
to my login shell.
If I continue the test by typing 'fg', then eventually, that 'if'
statement will actually echo 'false' to stdout. In my original script
that was having issues, I only ever saw the 'if' take the wrong path,
and I never saw this 'Stopped' problem. What could cause the system to
send 'SIGSTOP' to the ksh93 process?
Here is a sample:
> >while true; do if ! echo gretsch-p21-396 | grep '\.$'; then true; else echo
> >false; fi; done
> [1]+ Stopped ksh93
> 37>fg
> ksh93
> false
>
> [1]+ Stopped ksh93
> 38>fg
> ksh93
>
> [1]+ Stopped ksh93
> 39>fg
> ksh93
>
> [1]+ Stopped ksh93
> 40>fg
> ksh93
>
> [1]+ Stopped ksh93
> 41>fg
> ksh93
>
> [1]+ Stopped ksh93
> 42>fg
> ksh93
>
> [1]+ Stopped ksh93
> 43>

Is it me, or is this wierd?
