Subject: [PATCH v2] Fix jobs -p to be POSIX compliant
Date: Sat, 20 Jan 2024 08:30:54 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240120123054.290214-1-wesleys@opperschaap.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240119232229.177255-1-wesleys@opperschaap.net>

In Debian the following bug was reported a couple of year ago and
someone re-raised it:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=346162

POSIX says that with "jobs -p", only the PID is output, whereas zsh
outputs full information.

There is discussion in the bug regarding POSIX_BUILTINS and refers to
workers/21366. The latter is interesting because it refers to setopt
long_list_jobs. I would want to argue that jobs -p should only show the
PID regardless of that setting and POSIX_BUILTINS. jobs has the -l
option, where the full line is displayed. From that point it doesn't
make a whole lot of sense to have jobs -p do the same thing. From a UI
standpoint I think it is more logical to let jobs -l do a long listing
and jobs -p only show the pid.

Than there is the issue where its argued that zsh shows the group pid
and not the actual pid of the process that is running. I looked at the
output of bash and with this patch zsh and bash act similar. They both
show the pid of the command group:

On bash:

$ ( sleep 20 && echo foo) & sleep 5 &
$ jobs -p && jobs -l
255028
255029
[1]- 255028 Running                 ( sleep 20 && echo foo ) &
[2]+ 255029 Done                    sleep 5

On zsh with this patch:

$ ( sleep 20 && echo foo) & sleep 5 &
$ jobs -l && jobs -p
[1] 255065
[2] 255066
[1]  - 255065 running    ( sleep 20 && echo foo; )
[2]  + 255066 running    sleep 5
255065
255066
