Remoting relies on Windows native crypto APIs to pass a secure string. Of course these APIs don't work on non-Windows. However, the remoting code does not expect this to fail so ends up in a hang waiting for an event that never happens.
Have not figured out how to return an error to the user in the case `Get-Credential` is called within a PSSession. Currently it just quietly closes the remote connection. @PaulHigin can you give a pointer to where this code would exist? Debugging the current code, it has a bunch of error handlers which just result in the pssession being closed and not sure where throwing is appropriate.
Fix https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/8723
## PR Context
Fix is to provide implementations of the Win32 native pinvoke apis that throw an exception. The reason to do it this way is that there's a bunch of code that calls some of the APIs of the wrapper .Net class to setup structures that eventually get passed to the win32 api. Throwing in the managed class causes other things to fail early that should work on non-Windows.
One reported case where during applocker policy check, the test script that is created cannot be deleted because something else (malware scanner?) has a lock on the file. This results in an exception being thrown in finally block which ultimately causes PowerShell to crash due to the unhandled exception. Fix is to wrap the deletion in the finally block with try..catch and ignore any exceptions and leave the temp file.

* support fuzzy matching with get-command and on CommandNotFound exception, show suggestion
* fix CodeFactor issues
* change algorithm to use Damerau-Levenshtein Distance which is more useful in finding close matches
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`.
Provide a tab completion attribute (ArgumentEncodingCompletionsAttribute) for an Encoding parameter.
This PR should fix the duplicated code warning in CodeFactor
- 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.
Update links that contain 'en-us' culture to remove 'en-us' culture (if possible) and in some cases update to newer re-directed link to docs.microsoft.com
- Can compile a source from strings (TypeDefinition and MemberDefinition).
- Can compile from files.
- Can compile only to a file (without loading the produced assembly).
- Do not recompile and don't reload if the sources have not changed.
- Implement `-IgnoreWarnings` to not treat warnings as errors. By default, the cmdlet considers warnings as errors.
- Add VisualBasic support.
- Add new `-CompilerOptions` parameter to allow setting Roslyn command line parameters including:
- Parser options.
- Compile options.
- Emit options.
**ATTENTION:** The `CompilerOptions` can be specified along with other options like `-OutputAssembly`, `-Language` and `-IgnoreWarnings`. The explicit setting parameters will take precedence over the same settings specified in `-CompileOptions`.
See docs about the compiler options:
https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/blob/master/docs/compilers/CSharp/CommandLine.mdhttps://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/blob/master/docs/compilers/Visual%20Basic/CommandLine.md
**ATTENTION:** `-OutputType` default is `Library`. If `-OutputType` is absent the `-OutputType` default overlaps a value in `CompileOptions`. In other words output type ("target" ot "t" in command line) is always ignored in `CompileOptions`. We have to use `-OutputType` to set an output type.
'GetTypeInfo()' were added when porting PowerShell to early version of .NET Core (prior .NET Core 1.0).
Most properties and methods in 'System.Type' were missing at that time. Now the call is not needed anymore and should be removed.
* Terminate the loop in GetMainModule if main module is null.
* Run tests with FileVersionInfo also on non-windows platforms. Add test for process which main module can be null.
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.
This PR fixes the logging issue on Linux where logging is initialized before `-settingsFile` is parsed causing custom log settings to be ignored. (see ConsoleHost.cs and ManagedEntrance.cs)
The PR also includes basic logging tests for Linux and MacOS. PSSyslog.psm1 contains the functions to retrieve selected logged items (based on PowerShell's log id and a timestamp) and Logging.Tests.ps1 contains tests for Linux and MacOS.
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
- Remove previous `UseAlwaysAnalytic` workaround in `SysLogProvider.Log`
- Update Script Block logging to always log to the operational channel with `UseAlwaysOperational`
- Fix `PSChannel` on Linux to use a bitmask
- Handle `UseAlwaysOperational` and `UseAlwaysAnalytic` keywords but adding to `_keywordFilter` if the associated channels were selected in the configuration
