Major changes are:
- Rename `s_wasSystemPolicyDebugPolicy` to `s_allowDebugOverridePolicy` to make it less confusing. Also slightly refactor `HelperSecurity.psm1` and `ConstrainedLanguageDebugger.Tests.ps1` to remove unneeded code. There is no functional change in this commit.
- Remove the unneeded static property `IsInbox`, as PowerShell Core won't be shipped in-box with Windows in the foreseeable feature. Even if we do in future, we won't be needing it because Windows PowerShell will probably be gone by that time.
- Update 'BindRunspace' to avoid getting all commands and unneeded method calls.
- Avoid creating a `IsSafeValueVisitor` every time when `IsScriptBlockInFactASafeHashtable` runs.
Create unified release build for macOS and Linux packages
- Also, updated the definition with latest definitions from the definitions in use.
I will work on these in future PRs:
- Add compliance Job
- Add macOS Signing step
- Merging Windows into the YAML
[breaking change]
Major changes are as follows:
- Add `Enable-ExperimentalFeature` and `Disable-ExperimentalFeature` cmdlets.
- Remove `-ListAvailable` from `Get-ExperimentalFeature`.
- Add `ArgumentCompleter` for `Get-ExperimentalFeature` cmdlet.
- Refactor some existing Experimental Feature tests.
- Make `ConfigScope` public and renamed `SystemWide` to `AllUsers`. Also update experimental feature code to prefer the current user config over the all user config.
Fix an intermittent failure in macOS logging tests
- make tests wait for the correct number of log entries
- make tests not fail with an `Index was outside the bounds of the array.` error
This is a follow up to reverted PR #8346. I removed a workaround that was used to avoid [a Newtonsoft.Json bug](https://github.com/JamesNK/Newtonsoft.Json/issues/1321) that caused some incomplete json array input to successfully be deserialized.
This bug being fixed, I thought the workaround was unnecessary, but after the merge some feature tests started to fail (which I did not run prior to merging).
It was discovered that the workaround is still needed because while the first Newtonsoft.Json bug was fixed, some cases of incomplete json array input still behave unexpectedly, namely json input `[`.
This PR is just to update the comment explaining the workaround so it links to the newly created issue [here](https://github.com/JamesNK/Newtonsoft.Json/issues/1930).
Major changes are as follows:
- Avoid `SecuritySupport.IsProductBinary` and unnecessary AMSI/suspicious code scan at startup time
- Update `CompiledScriptBlockData.IsProductCode` to avoid unnecessary calls to `IsProductBinary`, which attempts to retrieve catalog signature of the target file.
- Update `PerformSecurityChecks` to skip AMSI and suspicious code scan for the `.psd1` file that contains a safe `HashtableAst` only.
- Use customized `ReadOnlyBag` instead of `ImmutableHashSet` so that we can avoid loading the `System.Collections.Immutable.dll` completely.
- Replace `SHA1` with `CRC32` when generating module analysis cache file name
- This remove the loading of `System.Security.Cryptography.Algorithms.dll` at startup
- Move `ConvertFrom-SddlString` to C# to remove the `Utility.psm1` file.
- Crossgen `Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.dll` and enable tiered compilation
- Even pwsh with crossgen assemblies spends a lot time in jitting at the startup, about `191.6ms` comparing with `24.7ms` for Windows PowerShell.
- Jitting `Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.dll` takes about `51.6ms`.
- By crossgen `Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.dll` and enable tiered compilation, the jitting time drops to about `98.9ms`.
Revert "Remove workaround for fixed invalid json array deserializing bug (#8346)"
This reverts commit 60a4e2f346.
This change caused the test which verified the functionality this workaround enabled, to start failing
Export-ModuleMember cmdlet throws an exception if module functions are exported across language boundaries (Windows only). But a scriptblock LanguageMode property can be null if the scriptblock is created without a PowerShell context, and this can happen through the PowerShell API called from C#. In this case Export-ModuleMember throws erroneously when no language mode restrictions are in play.
Fix is to check if LanguageMode is null before comparing context and scriptblock language modes.
With this commit, users who invoke a command with -Debug will no longer be presented with a prompt asking them if they want to enter a nested prompt, continue execution, or halt execution entirely. Instead, any messages sent to the debug stream will simply be sent to the debug stream and the script will continue execution.
When implementing interfaces, PowerShell incorrectly produces non-virtual get/set methods for interface-defined properties.
This commit adds a lookup method for interface-defined properties and marks get/set methods for properties with matching signatures virtual.
Compare the PowerShell modules dependencies on PowerShell Gallery and sync them to AzDevOps artifacts feed if a newer is available. The release builds pick up modules from AzDevOps feed.
