Hi,
so is my patch correct? Without my patch re_string_peek_byte() is not
executed - and this is the function that is executed (and where the match
is found) when "--ignore-case" is not enabled. With my patch grep is able
to match the '\a' while still preserving the correctness for other cases.
For sure some tests would be helpful but from what I checked my patch is
not breaking anything else while adding the correct match for '\a' case.

If you still think the patch is wrong, could you please point me in the
right direction? Maybe you could point me where it's not preserving
correctness.

Best regards,
Tomasz Dziendzielski

It's to fix the bug. Without the patch if we use icase this
re_string_peek_byte was not executed and as a consequence match is not
found.
If we apply the patch grep is able to match the '\a' correctly. The patch
has nothing to do with improving performance, if was just an additional
comment from my side that the fix should not affect the performance (in my
opinion). Sorry for confusion.

Best regards,
Tomasz Dziendzielski

Unfortunately I've lost context here. Is this patch being proposed to 
improve performance, or to fix a bug?

I don't see how the patch preserves correctness: if pstr->icase is true, 
surely in general we need to look at the translated string, not the 
original.

I found that for optimization purposes common cases in re_string_peek_byte
are missed if pstr->mbs_allocated is true, thus skipping them also for case
insensitive.

My solution would be to return re_string_peek_byte also if pstr->icase is
true. mbs_allocated is changed also depending on icase but I don't think we
want to change it globally, so I think my patch should be fine and not
affect optimization.

Please check the attachment. If the patch is fine should I also send this
to gnulib mailing list to have it submitted or is this one enough?

Best regards,
Tomasz Dziendzielski

It seems to me that there is a bug, because the search in question is 
done to a line for which EGexecute has already reported a match. 
Therefore, if you search again with the same pattern, you should find at 
least one match. However, in this buggy case, EGexecute is not finding a 
match, and this messes up the caller.

It should be able to assume that there is at least one match, so it 
shouldn't need to worry about the case where there are zero matches.

> behaviour,

Yes, and that means this bug is not a POSIX-conformance issue. However, 
it's still a bug, since '\a' should match 'a' in GNU grep, at least 
unless and until we decide that \a matches something else.

> So having EGexecute match 'a' to '\a' is incorrect

Not at all. Undefined behavior means 'grep' can do anything it likes, as 
far as POSIX is concerned.

A different inconsistency is in gnulib regex also, which matches 'a' to
'\a' but do not match the same if case insensitive is set. I'll still try
to work on that.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"

Now I noticed that it introduces inconsistency, but due to a second problem
- that grep prints lines even when there were no matching strings. For
example if I run:
$ echo "a" | grep -E "{1,3}"
$ echo "a" | grep -i "\a"
then it returns the string "a" even though it doesn't match anything. With
my patch it correctly does not print the string but I think for consistency
it also requires adaptations in case --color was not passed. I'll try to
work on that.

Best regards,
Tomasz Dziendzielski

Additional note, according to POSIX regex standard:
"An ordinary character is a BRE that matches itself: any character in the
supported character set, except for the BRE special characters listed in
BRE Special Characters.
The interpretation of an ordinary character preceded by an unescaped
<backslash> ( '\\' ) is undefined, except for: [...]"
which means that escaping ordinary characters (like \a) has undefined
behaviour, thus I think it should not be matched.
So having EGexecute match 'a' to '\a' is incorrect, and instead we should
remove the matching and make sure it's not printed. That would make my
patch correct.

Looking forward to feedback.

Also, even if we assume it should return a match (which I think it
shouldn't), then there's a second bug in print_line_middle, because why
would it print anything if there was no match?

Thanks for the reply. In my opinion the bug is not in the EGexecute, since
it uses re_search (from gnulib) and the re_search is not returning a match.
So there is no problem in EGexecute. I also compared python re.search with
\a also don't return a match and I found \a can be interpreted a bell or
alarm.
It's good to mention that the lack of match happens for all lowercase
characters that are not defined in regex (for example echo "j" | grep -i
--color '\j'. Comparing to python, they don't allow us to escape any
incorrect lowercase characters, for example:
>>>re.search("\j","j", re.IGNORECASE)
re.error: bad escape \j at position 0
Due to that I think grep should also ignore the non-maching/bad character
instead of printing them.

Best regards,
Tomasz Dziendzielski

Hi,
sorry for producing such a spam, there was huge 7h delay between my mail
and the reply from the mailing list, so I thought something was not sent
correctly on my side.

>EGexecute should return a match, though,
>right? The pattern '\a' matches

Thanks for the reply. In my opinion the bug is not in the EGexecute, since
it uses re_search (from gnulib) and the re_search is not returning a match.
So there is no problem in EGexecute. I also compared python re.search with
\a also don't return a match and I found \a can be interpreted a bell or
alarm.
It's good to mention that the lack of match happens for all lowercase
characters that are not defined in regex (for example echo "j" | grep -i
--color '\j'. Comparing to python, they don't allow us to escape any
incorrect lowercase characters, for example:
>>>re.search("\j","j", re.IGNORECASE)
re.error: bad escape \j at position 0
Due to that I think grep should also ignore the non-maching/bad character
instead of printing them.

Best regards,
Tomasz Dziendzielski

Gexecute should return a match, though, right? This is because the 
pattern '\a' matches the data 'a'. So it sounds like the bug is in 
EGexecute somewhere, not in its caller.

Hello,
I did some investigation and it seems the problem with '\a' is not that the output is not colored but that it's printed at all while it should not be. It's being printed even when re_search in EGexecute doesn't return a match. As a result the for loop in print_line_middle is not being run - this means the 'a' output that you see is not from the matched string but from the rest of the line. To fix this I suggest to return NULL from print_line_middle if 'b' variable equals NULL - which means the loop was not executed.

I'm sending the patch with the fix in the attachment.

Best regards,
Tomasz Dziendzielski

Hello,
I did some investigation and it seems the problem with "\a" is not that the
output is not colored but that it's printed at all while it should not be.
It's being printed even when re_search in EGexecute doesn't return a match.
As a result the for loop in print_line_middle is not being run - this means
the "a" output that you see is not from the matched string but from the
rest of the line. To fix this I suggest to return NULL from
print_line_middle if `b` variable equals NULL - which means the loop was
not executed.

I'm sending the patch with the fix in the attachment.

Best regards,
Tomasz Dziendzielski

Hello,
I did some investigation and it seems the problem with "\a" is not that the
output is not colored but that it's printed at all while it should not be.
It's being printed even when re_search in EGexecute doesn't return a match.
As a result the for loop in print_line_middle is not being run - this means
the "a" output that one can see is not from the matched string but from the
rest of the line. To fix this I suggest to return NULL from
print_line_middle if `b` variable equals NULL - which means the loop was
not executed.

I'm sending the patch with the fix in the attachment.

Best regards,
Tomasz Dziendzielski

  echo a | grep -i --color '\a'

  echo a | grep -i --color '\A'

Of the above two commands, only the second colorizes the printed "a".

(An old GNU grep on NetBSD (grep 2.5.1a nb1) does the opposite of
a modern grep: it will show color for \a, but none for \A.)

Bug was found in GNU grep 3.1 while checking whether it understands
\d as a shorthand for [0-9].  Still present in 3.4. The locale does
not appear to matter.


In a report against glibc [1] that seems to be related, a comment
says that "Unknown backslash escapes invoke undefined behaviour."
But where in the documentation does it say so?


When searching for a regular expression in GNU nano (^W M-R), nano says
it cannot find any \a.  But for \A, it will find all "a"s and "A"s.
Nano's default search is case insensitive.  See [2] for the original
report by Ben Addis.  I suppose this is the same or a related bug in
the regex module of gnulib, which nano uses.
