Fix for #6741 Allow .exe files to be used as binary modules. Basically anywhere a .dll could be used with modules, you can now use a .exe file. Also did a little clean up, replacing constant strings with the StringLiteral values instead.
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`.
- Add `%WINDIR%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules` (Windows PowerShell $PSHOME) to the end of the default PSCore 6 module path (i.e. the module path as initially set at startup).
- Cause an error to be thrown by `Import-Module` when a module with `CompatiblePSEditions` not containing `"Core"` is being loaded from the 'System32' module path.
- Suppress output of modules listed by `Get-Module -ListAvailable` from Windows PowerShell $PSHOME when `CompatiblePSEditions` does not contain `"Core"`.
- Introduce the `-SkipCompatibilityCheck` switch parameter on both `Import-Module` and `Get-Module` to respectively allow importing incompatible modules and listing incompatible modules.
- Adds a `PSEdition` column to the `PSModuleInfo` table view format.
- Ensures that completions are not given for incompatible modules on the System32 module path.
- Use File.GetAttributes() instead of p/invokes to check for existence of FileSystem items. The method throws access exceptions which we use for better error messages.
- Remove the word 'Native' from method names.
Clean up workflow logic in the module loading component.
Workflow module is not supported in PSCore.
Currently, Import-Module throws a terminating error when seeing .xaml modules. After the change, Import-Module throws a non-terminating error when seeing .xaml modules.
Based on standard practices, we need to have a copyright and license notice at the top of each source file. Removed existing copyrights and updated/added copyright notices for .h, .cpp, .cs, .ps1, and .psm1 files.
Updated module manifests for consistency to have Author = "PowerShell" and Company = "Microsoft Corporation". Removed multiple line breaks.
Separate PR coming to update contribution document for new source files: #6140
Manually reviewed each change.
Fix#6073
Currently, it's using the same location as Windows PowerShell and the two should not be sharing one as the PSModulePaths are different between the two.
XDG profile directory creation can fail for accounts that do not have home directories.
The module analysis was trying to persist it's cache in an XDG profile directory.
The cache is less critical than it once was, so it's reasonable to not cache if there is no good place to do so.
Fixes#3011
Our private implementation of FailFast was likely introduced
when each individual application needed it's own code to
get Watson reports. The CLR takes care of this for us now,
so we don't need our implementation.
Our method CheckForSevereException was also introduced in
the early days of the CLR - the exceptions it was checking
for aren't actually raised the CLR anymore, they just FailFast.
I removed them as there is a tiny bit of overhead (in code size)
and also in the generated code, e.g. dynamic sites called the method.
I (Jason Shirk) ran https://github.com/dotnet/codeformatter with the default rules, basically:
codeformatter /nocopyright "/c:DEBUG,UNIX,CORECLR" @files.rsp
This caused a few problems building, which were fixed up manually.
Notable changes:
`this.` is removed unless needed to disambiguate.
private instance fields are renamed to have a `_` prefix.
private static fields are renamed to have a `s_` prefix.
I left some projects alone (like PackageManagement) and also left some generated code alone.
