[comp.os.minix] Bugs in shell

ast@cs.vu.nl (Andy Tanenbaum) (01/07/90)

Greg Sharp has pointed out some problems in the shell.
The worst is that synio() in sh2.c returns a 0 in the middle of the
code and just falls off the end as well, returning garbage as a value.
Unfortunately the callers of synio() care about the value.

Does anybody have any idea what to do?  If you want to hack on the shell,
we can supply more items.
