Public bug reported:
When a pipeline job is suspended and then backgrounded, 'jobs -l'
incorrectly lists the status of all but the first command in the
pipeline.
For example:
% cp /dev/null /tmp/emptyfile && tail -F /tmp/emptyfile | fgrep hello | sed
's/^/received: /'
^Z
zsh: suspended tail -F /tmp/emptyfile | fgrep hello | sed 's/^/received: /'
% jobs -l
[1] + 8096 suspended tail -F /tmp/emptyfile |
8097 suspended fgrep hello |
8098 suspended sed 's/^/received: /'
The confusion begins after the 'bg' command:
% bg
[1] + continued tail -F /tmp/emptyfile | fgrep hello | sed 's/^/received: /'
% jobs -l
[1] + 8096 running tail -F /tmp/emptyfile |
8097 unknown signal (core dumped) fgrep hello |
8098 unknown signal (core dumped) sed 's/^/received: /'
The status above is wrong; both fgrep and sed are in fact running fine:
% echo hello world >> /tmp/emptyfile
% kill 8096 # flush the pipeline
% received: hello world
[1] + terminated tail -F /tmp/emptyfile |
done fgrep hello | sed 's/^/received: /'
%
Note also that the final status, printed when the commands actually
exit, is correct ('done').
