/* We implement our own kill() using the undocumented system service
   sys$sigprc for one of two reasons:

   1.) If the kill() in an older CRTL uses sys$forcex, causing the
   target process to do a sys$exit, which usually can't be handled 
   gracefully...certainly not by Perl and the %SIG{} mechanism.

   2.) If the kill() in the CRTL can't be called from a signal
   handler without disappearing into the ether, i.e., the signal
   it purportedly sends is never trapped. Still true as of VMS 7.3.

   sys$sigprc has the same parameters as sys$forcex, but throws an exception
   in the target process rather than calling sys$exit.

   Note that distinguishing SIGSEGV from SIGBUS requires an extra arg
   on the ACCVIO condition, which sys$sigprc (and sys$forcex) don't
   provide.  On VMS 7.0+ this is taken care of by doing sys$sigprc
   with condition codes C$_SIG0+nsig*8, catching the exception on the 
   target process and resignaling with appropriate arguments.

   But we don't have that VMS 7.0+ exception handler, so if you
   Perl_my_kill(.., SIGSEGV) it will show up as a SIGBUS.  Oh well.

   Also note that SIGTERM is listed in the docs as being "unimplemented",
   yet always seems to be signaled with a VMS condition code of 4 (and
   correctly handled for that code).  So we hardwire it in.

   Unlike the VMS 7.0+ CRTL kill() function, we actually check the signal
   number to see if it's valid.  So Perl_my_kill(pid,0) returns -1 rather
   than signalling with an unrecognized (and unhandled by CRTL) code.

/*
** The following routines are provided to make life easier when
** converting among VMS-style and Unix-style directory specifications.
** All will take input specifications in either VMS or Unix syntax. On
** failure, all return NULL.  If successful, the routines listed below
** return a pointer to a buffer containing the appropriately
** reformatted spec (and, therefore, subsequent calls to that routine
** will clobber the result), while the routines of the same names with
** a _ts suffix appended will return a pointer to a mallocd string
** containing the appropriately reformatted spec.
** In all cases, only explicit syntax is altered; no check is made that
** the resulting string is valid or that the directory in question
** actually exists.
**
**   fileify_dirspec() - convert a directory spec into the name of the
**     directory file (i.e. what you can stat() to see if it's a dir).
**     The style (VMS or Unix) of the result is the same as the style
**     of the parameter passed in.
**   pathify_dirspec() - convert a directory spec into a path (i.e.
**     what you prepend to a filename to indicate what directory it's in).
**     The style (VMS or Unix) of the result is the same as the style
**     of the parameter passed in.
**   tounixpath() - convert a directory spec into a Unix-style path.
**   tovmspath() - convert a directory spec into a VMS-style path.
**   tounixspec() - convert any file spec into a Unix-style file spec.
**   tovmsspec() - convert any file spec into a VMS-style spec.

/* VMS subprocess management
 *
 * my_vfork() - just a vfork(), after setting a flag to record that
 * the current script is trying a Unix-style fork/exec.
 *
 * vms_do_aexec() and vms_do_exec() are called in response to the
 * perl 'exec' function.  If this follows a vfork call, then they
 * call out the regular perl routines in doio.c which do an
 * execvp (for those who really want to try this under VMS).
 * Otherwise, they do exactly what the perl docs say exec should
 * do - terminate the current script and invoke a new command
 * (See below for notes on command syntax.)
 *
 * do_aspawn() and do_spawn() implement the VMS side of the perl
 * 'system' function.
 *
 * Note on command arguments to perl 'exec' and 'system': When handled
 * in 'VMSish fashion' (i.e. not after a call to vfork) The args
 * are concatenated to form a DCL command string.  If the first arg
 * begins with '$' (i.e. the perl script had "\$ Type" or some such),
 * the command string is handed off to DCL directly.  Otherwise,
 * the first token of the command is taken as the filespec of an image
 * to run.  The filespec is expanded using a default type of '.EXE' and
 * the process defaults for device, directory, etc., and if found, the resultant
 * filespec is invoked using the DCL verb 'MCR', and passed the rest of
 * the command string as parameters.  This is perhaps a bit complicated,
 * but I hope it will form a happy medium between what VMS folks expect
 * from lib$spawn and what Unix folks expect from exec.

 *      struct passwd {
 *              char        *pw_name;    Username (in lower case)
 *              char        *pw_passwd;  Hashed password

 *              char        *pw_shell;   Default CLI name (eg. DCL)
 *      };
 * If the specified user does not exist, getpwuid and getpwnam return NULL.
 *
 * pw_uid is the full UIC (eg. what's returned by stat() in st_uid).
 * not the UIC member number (eg. what's returned by getuid()),
 * getpwuid() can accept either as input (if uid is specified, the caller's
 * UIC group is used), though it won't recognise gid=0.
 *
 * Note that in VMS it is necessary to have GRPPRV or SYSPRV to return
 * information about other users in your group or in other groups, respectively.
 * If the required privilege is not available, then these routines fill only
 * the pw_name, pw_uid, and pw_gid fields (the others point to an empty
 * string).

 * device name buffer for each call; so without encode_dev, it would be
 * necessary to save the buffer and use strcmp (this would mean a number of
 * changes to the standard Perl code, to say nothing of what a Perl script
 * would have to do.
 *
 * The device lock id, if it exists, should be unique (unless perhaps compared
 * with lock ids transferred from other nodes). We have a lock id if the disk is
 * mounted cluster-wide, which is when we tend to get long (host-qualified)
 * device names. Thus we use the lock id in preference, and only if that isn't
 * available, do we try to pack the device name into an integer (flagged by
 * the sign bit (LOCKID_MASK) being set).
 *
 * Note that encode_dev cannot guarantee an 1-to-1 correspondence twixt device
 * name and its encoded form, but it seems very unlikely that we will find
 * two files on different disks that share the same encoded device names,
 * and even more remote that they will share the same file id (if the test
 * is to check for the same file).
 *
 * A better method might be to use sys$device_scan on the first call, and to
 * search for the device, returning an index into the cached array.
 * The number returned would be more intelligable.
