[BZ 1190] Make EOF sticky in stdio. C99 specifies that the EOF condition on a file is "sticky": once EOF has been encountered, all subsequent reads should continue to return EOF until the file is closed or something clears the "end-of-file indicator" (e.g. fseek, clearerr). This is arguably a change from C89, where the wording was ambiguous; the BSDs always had sticky EOF, but the System V lineage would attempt to read from the underlying fd again. GNU libc has followed System V for as long as we've been using libio, but nowadays C99 conformance and BSD compatibility are more important than System V compatibility. You might wonder if changing the _underflow impls is sufficient to apply the C99 semantics to all of the many stdio functions that perform input. It should be enough to cover all paths to _IO_SYSREAD, and the only other functions that call _IO_SYSREAD are the _seekoff impls, which is OK because seeking clears EOF, and the _xsgetn impls, which, as far as I can tell, are unused within glibc. The test programs in this patch use a pseudoterminal to set up the necessary conditions. To facilitate this I added a new test-support function that sets up a pair of pty file descriptors for you; it's almost the same as BSD openpty, the only differences are that it allocates the optionally-returned tty pathname with malloc, and that it crashes if anything goes wrong. [BZ #1190] [BZ #19476] * libio/fileops.c (_IO_new_file_underflow): Return EOF immediately if the _IO_EOF_SEEN bit is already set; update commentary. * libio/oldfileops.c (_IO_old_file_underflow): Likewise. * libio/wfileops.c (_IO_wfile_underflow): Likewise. * support/support_openpty.c, support/tty.h: New files. * support/Makefile (libsupport-routines): Add support_openpty. * libio/tst-fgetc-after-eof.c, wcsmbs/test-fgetwc-after-eof.c: New test cases. * libio/Makefile (tests): Add tst-fgetc-after-eof. * wcsmbs/Makefile (tests): Add tst-fgetwc-after-eof.

/* ISO C1999 specification of fgetc:
#include <stdio.h>
int fgetc (FILE *stream);
Description
If the end-of-file indicator for the input stream pointed to by
stream is not set and a next character is present, the fgetc
function obtains that character as an unsigned char converted to
an int and advances the associated file position indicator for
the stream (if defined).
Returns
If the end-of-file indicator for the stream is set, or if the
stream is at end-of-file, the end-of-file indicator for the
stream is set and the fgetc function returns EOF. Otherwise, the
fgetc function returns the next character from the input stream
pointed to by stream. If a read error occurs, the error indicator
for the stream is set and the fgetc function returns EOF.
The requirement to return EOF "if the end-of-file indicator for the
stream is set" was new in C99; the language in the 1989 edition of
the standard was ambiguous. Historically, BSD-derived Unix always
had the C99 behavior, whereas in System V fgetc would attempt to
call read() again before returning EOF again. Prior to version 2.28,
glibc followed the System V behavior even though this does not
comply with C99.
