bug#19897: 24.3; Emacs exits with exit code 0 if EOF of stdin has been r


From: Philipp Stephani
Subject: bug#19897: 24.3; Emacs exits with exit code 0 if EOF of stdin has been reached
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2015 21:58:42 +0100

This has been discussed in
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2015-02/msg00381.html.

To reproduce:

$ emacs -Q -batch -eval '(error "foo")' < /dev/null ; echo $?
foo
255

$ emacs -Q -batch -eval '(kill-emacs 37)' < /dev/null ; echo $?
37

$ emacs -Q -batch -eval '(progn (ignore-errors (read)) (kill-emacs 37))' <<< 
nil ; echo $?
Lisp expression: 37

$ emacs -Q -batch -eval '(read)' < /dev/null ; echo $?
Lisp expression: Error reading from stdin
0

$ emacs -Q -batch -eval '(progn (ignore-errors (read)) (kill-emacs 37))' < 
/dev/null ; echo $?
Lisp expression: 0

The examples with nonzero exit code are as expected.  The examples with
zero exit code are unexpected.  They are caused by the code 

  if (feof (stdin))
    arg = Qt;

in Fkill_emacs.  This behavior confuses e.g. unit tests runners that
rely on a precise exit code.
It is not documented in the documentation for kill-emacs.
