Implements "extended registers"
Extended registers provide access to a separate namespace of registers
backed by custom lua callback functions.
A new special register ("~) is introduced, which prompts the user for
the name of an extregistr to yank or paste from.
This enables file-backed or cloud-synced or other arbitrary register
behavior.
One can now use:
`"~file_extreg<cr>yy`
to yank into the "file_extreg" register.

This is a bunch of hacks so we can override msg_puts_printf specifically
while still allowing redirecting and "normal" message flow to happen,
as this still has observable side-effects (even with no screen attached,
screenstring() is still valid..)

consider the following test_script.lua :
print 'hello\n' -- TWO new lines
print 'this is \027[31mRED FOR AN AMAZING REASON\027[0m'
print 'foo'
print '' -- newline despite empty!
print 'bar'
-- a bit later:
os.execute 'sleep 2' -- CPU goes BRR, cursor in column zero
print 'more bar'
before this PR, `nvim -l test_script.lua` had some weird behaviors
compared to `lua test_script.lua` or the now removed `nvim -ll
test_script.lua`.
- one extra '\n' at the end of a print is ignored, one would need
TWO '\n' for a single extra '\n'
- an empty print'' is supposed to print an empty line
- print'\027[31mRED' is being escaped so it does not work
- the cursor gets stuck at the end of a message, instead of after
emitting the new line, this looks like the CPU lag has something
to do with the _last_ printed message which is likely not the case.
I consider these behaviors to be unintentional (a consequence of
stragglig through the message.c meta-machine, which is optimized
for message handling in _an interative text editor_) and getting
closer to plain lua behavior would be better.
An alternative would be to restore the builtin print(), but our
implemenation still has some benefits, like try
`print(setmetatable({}, {__tostring=error})` in plain lua..

Problem: Command inputs and parsed modifiers have different optional
fields, and completion window IDs are annotated as floating-point
values.
Solution: Separate modifier input and return types, correct integer IDs,
and update the metadata generators and their output.

context: vim_snprintf provides a "portable" replacement for a system
vsnprintf(). However we rely on system vsnprintf() in places. This
is quite arbitrary. I want to use system vsnprintf() only, and
reduce the machinery in string.c for typval printf only, which will
delet a lot of duplicated code.
The biggest hurdle here is not "portably" (we only support sane c
runtimes) but the following discrepancy: standard libc printf()
considers NULL args to %s to be undefined behavior strictly
while vim_snprintf() _defacto_ allows this by replacement to "[NULL]"
IMO, this should be seen as "graceful" error handling (nicer than crashing
on the user), not a valid means to have the string "[NULL]" intentionally
be shoved in the users face. more robust code should explicitly
check for NULL and replace it with a _appropriate_ fallback for
the situation, depending on what a NULL string actually means in the
context (unnamed buffer? anonymous namespace? global augroup?)
soo, this PR provides the most _gently_ incremental nudge towards
considering this case again as an error one could possible imagine.
If sanitizers are complied in, this minor incursion gets printed
into the sanitizers' log as a "report-and-continue" error with a
traceback. This doesn't annoy the end user or "stop the world"
in the test suite, but the CI will see the reported error and
fail the build, just like other non-fatal CI errors.

Problem:
`nlua_pcall()` references `_G.debug.traceback`. If user code deletes it
or breaks it some other way, various Lua features are broken.
_G.debug = nil
vim.schedule(function() end)
vim.wait(100)
E5113: Lua chunk: attempt to index a nil value
stack traceback:
[C]: in function 'loop_poll'
[string "vim/_core/editor"]:176: in function 'wait'
crash.lua:3: in main chunk
PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API (attempt to index a nil value)
Solution:
Check `_G.debug.traceback` before using it as errfunc. If it's broken,
omit the traceback and say so in the error message.
Note: We could cache `_G.debug` in LUA_REGISTRYINDEX on startup, but
that would prevent plugins from providing custom functionality there
(and we happen to do so in `tui_spec.lua` for example).

Problem:
Leak reported by ASAN CI, always at Lua state init.
ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks
strbuf_init src/cjson/strbuf.c:62:22
json_create_config src/cjson/lua_cjson.c:635:5
lua_cjson_new src/cjson/lua_cjson.c:2060:5
nlua_state_add_stdlib src/nvim/lua/stdlib.c:840:3
nlua_state_init src/nvim/lua/executor.c:973:3
...
SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: 1055 byte(s) leaked in 2 allocation(s).
Analysis:
`getout()` may run during `free_all_mem()` (that's why it checks
`!entered_free_all_mem`). If that happens, the second `os_exit()`
returns early from `free_all_mem()` then `exit()` is called and Lua
state is never closed.
Solution:
Always call `nlua_free_all_mem()` in the early-return case.

Problem:
`:set foo=<tab>` and `:set foo?` for func/expr options set to a Lua
function, always displays "v:lua".
The existing "<Lua N: file:line>" form was avoided because the ref id
N changes on every read of the same option.
Solution:
- Don't attempt to tab-complete Lua functions.
- Show "<Lua file:line>" (or "<Lua>" if source file is unknown).
Example:
:set operatorfunc?
operatorfunc=<Lua ~/.config/nvim/init.lua:42>

Problem:
POSIX-compatible Ex-mode requires special-cases all over the codebase to
match various quirks that don't actually matter to users.
- The main utility of *interactive* Ex-mode is its REPL behavior, and
that can be achieved with `cmdwin`, which also gains extra UX
benefits.
- The main utility of *non-interactive* `nvim -es` is for shell
scripting, where Ex-mode quirks are mostly unhelpful (e.g. the
"Entering Ex mode" message).
Solution:
- Reimplement *interactive* Ex-mode as a "persistent, insert-mode
cmdwin" in Lua.
- "nvim -e/-E" is simply an alias to "gQ".
- Reframe *non-interactive* Ex-mode (`nvim -es`) as "script mode".
- Drop POSIX Ex-mode quirks.
Improvements:
- "nvim -V1 -es" output ends with a final newline!
- "nvim -V1 -es" no longer shows the "Entering Ex mode" msg. (This was
pointless noise, unwanted for scripting purposes.)
- stdin is no longer typeahead. Scripts (":lua io.read()") can read
stdin as data.
- Empty line is a no-op: a stray blank line no longer moves the cursor
(deviates from POSIX ex "+1"), no longer exits 1 at EOF (E501).
Preserved behavior:
- cursor starts at "$"
- mode()=="cv" (for non-interactive)
- multiline commands (:append/:function/heredoc pull continuation lines)
- bare-range print
- :print=>stdout
- -V1=>stderr
- CRLF input
- continue-after-error and exit codes
Dropped (regressed) POSIX behavior (non-interactive):
- Event loop only ticks while/between commands, not while blocked
waiting for a stdin line.
- ":g/pat/visual...Q"
- input()/getchar()/":s/x/y/c" no longer consume stdin lines as
answers: Nvim stops at end-of-input, skipping the rest of the script,
exit 0. Use ":lua io.read()" instead.
- If users care about this they should use interactive Ex-mode (`gQ`).
- ":@r" stops at end of the register instead of continuing to read
cmdline input from stdin.

Problem:
`getchar.c` is a quirky name and doesn't align with our existing
`os/input.c` and `tui/input.c` modules, which encompass the same topic
at different layers.
Solution:
Rename `getchar.c` => `input.c` for discoverability.
Introduce `dialog.c` for functionality related to showing confirm
prompts, dialogs, etc.

The added test shows the context, one expected a JSON field
to be a Object but it was a null value
pros: shows `vim.NIL` instead of `a userdata`
cons: the context `field 'foo'` is lost. I think this is generated
with internal magic which is hard to replicate.

Problem:
`os.exit()` in `nvim -l` exits through normal teardown. But, as #39783 shows,
when it is called from a libuv callback, teardown polling the main loop
when inside `uv_run()` can trip the recursive poll guard and cause a crash.
Fast callbacks are not safe to teardown, so it's better to schedule an exit out
of a callback rather than convolutedly handle this as I tried before.
Solution:
Reject `os.exit()` from fast callbacks with `E5560` error.

This was originally used because we needed a lua interpreter to run the
standalone _busted_ lua application (except we used fuckery behind the
scenes to fake its binary dependencies with our own binary
dependencies). Now we longer do that, we instead run `test.harness` as a
standard nvim -l script. as this mode is no longer used in tests it
risks going to bitrot anyway.
NB: -ll mode still had some theoretical benefits like quicker
initialization and more "native" printing behavior, etc.
But we can incrementally work on "nvim -l" mode instead
of maintaining a separate special thing.

Problem: User commands cannot handle single args with spaces
Solution: Add the -nargs=_ attribute (Maxim Kim)
-nargs=_ allow user commands to have a single argument with spaces.
For example given the following Test command and TestComplete function:
```
vim9script
def TestComplete(A: string, _: string, _: number): list<string>
var all = ["qqqq", "aaaa", "qq aa"]
return all->matchfuzzy(A)
enddef
command! -nargs=_ -complete=customlist,TestComplete Test echo <q-args>
```
`:Test q a<tab>` should successfully complete `qq aa`

Problem:
The Lua test harness still ran through standalone -ll mode, so tests
depended on the low-level Lua path instead of the regular Nvim Lua
environment. That also meant os.exit() coverage had to carry an ASAN
workaround because Lua's raw process exit skipped Nvim teardown and let
LeakSanitizer interfere with the observed exit code.
Solution:
Run the harness and related fixtures with nvim -l. Patch os.exit() in
the main Lua state to exit through getout(), so scripts observe normal
Nvim shutdown while standalone -ll remains available for generator-style
scripts. As a consequence, the startup test can assert os.exit() without
disabling leak detection.

Problem: vim.ui_attach() callback for nvim_echo() call that spoofs an

Problem:
The fallback that tokenizes `eap->arg` by unescaped whitespace (when the
parser doesn't pre-split via `EX_EXPAND` etc.) lives in `nlua_do_ucmd`,
so only user-command callbacks got `eap.fargs`. Builtin commands routed
through `nlua_call_excmd` have to re-parse the args themselves
(e.g. `M.ex_lsp`).
Solution:
- Move the tokenization into `nlua_push_eap` so every Lua handler sees
`eap.fargs`. Keep only the `EX_NOSPC` override in `nlua_do_ucmd` (the
`nargs=1`/`?` case which is genuinely user-command-specific).
- Drop the re-parse in `M.ex_lsp`.

Move vim.wait into runtime/lua/vim/_core/editor.lua and replace
the C entrypoint with narrow vim._core helpers for polling, UI
flushing, and interrupt checks.
Keep the existing interval semantics by retaining the dummy timer that
wakes the loop while it is otherwise idle.
Update the docs to describe the success return values correctly, and
adjust the test expectation for the new vim.validate() callback error.

Problem:

- Use `loadstring`+`string.dump` to replace LUAC_PRG(`luac`/`luajit -b`)
- `string.dump(…,false)` to generate non-strip version bytecode
- `loadstring(…,fname)` to specify the full source name

Although `nlua_call_excmd` is semantically for implementing Ex-commands,
the `require()` should never fail, so that's a "Lua error".
But if the call itself fails (the later `semsg` call), that's an "Ex
cmd" error.

Problem:
Too much boilerplate needed to use Lua to impl an excmd or f_xx
function.
Solution:
- Add `nlua_call_vimfn` which takes the args typval, executes
Lua, and returns a typval.
- refactor(excmd): lua impl for :log, :lsp

Problem:
- Builtin "Vimscript" functions (f_xx) are mostly implemented in C.
Partly that's because there is some boilerplate required to call out
to Lua.
- Calls to `vim.fn.foo()` always marshall over the Lua <=> Vimscript
("typval") bridge, even if `fn.foo()` is implemented entirely in Lua:
```
Lua => typval => Object => Lua => Object => typval => Lua.
```
Solution:
Functions declared in eval.lua with `func_lua` are implemented in
entirely in Lua (`_core/vimfn.lua`).
- `gen_eval.lua` wires `func_lua` entries to `lua_wrapper`, which handles
the typval conversion for Vimscript callers (slow path).
- `nlua_call()` detects `func_lua` functions and calls the Lua
implementation directly. This eliminates all conversion overhead for
Lua callers (fast path).
- Validate at build-time that `func`, `func_float`, and `func_lua` are
mutually exclusive.
- Migrate `hostname()` as a toy example, to show the idea.

Problem:
`nvim_echo(…, {id=…})` accepts user-defined id as a string or integer.
Generated ids are always higher than last highest msg-id used. Thus
plugins may accidentally advance the integer id "address space", which,
at minimum, could lead to confusion when troubleshooting, or in the
worst case, could overflow or "exhaust" the id address space.
There's no use-case for it, and it could be the mildly confusing, so we
should just disallow it.
Solution:
Disallow *integer* user-defined message-id.
Only allow *string* user-defined message-id.

Problem:
We want to encourage implementing core features in Lua instead of C, but
it's clumsy because:
- Core Lua code (built into `nvim` so it is available even if VIMRUNTIME
is missing/invalid) requires manually updating CMakeLists.txt, or
stuffing it into `_editor.lua`.
- Core Lua modules are not organized similar to C modules, `_editor.lua`
is getting too big.
Solution:
- Introduce `_core/` where core Lua code can live. All Lua modules added
there will automatically be included as bytecode in the `nvim` binary.
- Move these core modules into `_core/*`:
```
_defaults.lua
_editor.lua
_options.lua
_system.lua
shared.lua
```

Problem:
After bc0635a9fc9c15a2423d4eb35f627d127d00fa46 `vim.wait()` rejects floats
and NaN values.
Solution:
Restore the prior behavior, while still supporting `math.huge`. Update
tests to cover float case.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Problem:
`nlua_wait()` uses `luaL_checkinteger()` which doesn't support
`math.huge` since it's double type. On PUC Lua this fails with
'number has no integer representation' error and on LuaJIT this
overflows int.
Solution:
Use `luaL_checknumber()` and handle `math.huge`.
