fdopendir: Fix fd leak and test failure on native Windows. * lib/dirent-private.h: On mingw, define 'struct gl_directory' as a wrapper around the original DIR. On MSVC, add an 'fd_to_close' field to 'struct gl_directory'. * lib/dirent.in.h (DIR): Define when DIR_HAS_FD_MEMBER is 0, i.e. on both mingw and MSVC. (GNULIB_defined_DIR): New macro. (opendir): Avoid incompatible redeclaration. (readdir): Consider REPLACE_READDIR. (rewinddir): Consider REPLACE_REWINDDIR. * m4/dirent_h.m4 (gl_DIRENT_DIR): New macro. (gl_DIRENT_H): Invoke it. (gl_DIRENT_H_DEFAULTS): Initialize REPLACE_READDIR, REPLACE_REWINDDIR. * modules/dirent (Makefile.am): Substitute DIR_HAS_FD_MEMBER, REPLACE_READDIR, REPLACE_REWINDDIR. -- * lib/dirfd.c (dirfd): If GNULIB_defined_DIR, just use the 'fd_to_close' field. * m4/dirfd.m4 (gl_FUNC_DIRFD): Set HAVE_DIRFD. Don't set REPLACE_DIRFD to 1 if HAVE_DIRFD is 0. If DIR_HAS_FD_MEMBER is 0, ensure dirfd.c gets compiled. * modules/dirfd (Files): Add lib/dirent-private.h. (Depends-on, configure.ac): Simplify conditions. -- * lib/closedir.c: Include <stdlib.h> always, for free(). (closedir): If GNULIB_defined_DIR, arrange to call close(dirfd(dirp)) at the end. On mingw, call free() of dirp. Prefer testing HAVE_DIRENT_H, for consistency with dirent.h. * m4/closedir.m4 (gl_FUNC_CLOSEDIR): Don't set REPLACE_CLOSEDIR to 1 if HAVE_CLOSEDIR is 0. If DIR_HAS_FD_MEMBER is 0, ensure closedir.c gets compiled. -- * lib/opendir.c: Include <stdlib.h> always. Include <string.h>. (opendir): On mingw, allocate the 'struct gl_directory' through malloc. If GNULIB_defined_DIR, set the 'fd_to_close' field to -1. Prefer testing HAVE_DIRENT_H, for consistency with dirent.h. * m4/opendir.m4 (gl_FUNC_OPENDIR): Don't set REPLACE_OPENDIR to 1 if HAVE_OPENDIR is 0. If DIR_HAS_FD_MEMBER is 0, ensure opendir.c gets compiled. -- * lib/fdopendir.c (fdopendir): If GNULIB_defined_DIR, use a simple implementation based on opendir and the fchdir module. If __KLIBC__, don't define unused auxiliary functions. * modules/fdopendir (Files): Add lib/dirent-private.h. -- * lib/readdir.c (readdir): On mingw, redirect to the original readdir function. Prefer testing HAVE_DIRENT_H, for consistency with dirent.h. * m4/readdir.m4 (gl_FUNC_READDIR): If DIR_HAS_FD_MEMBER is 0, ensure readdir.c gets compiled. * modules/readdir (configure.ac): Consider REPLACE_READDIR. -- * lib/rewinddir.c (rewinddir): On mingw, redirect to the original rewinddir function. Prefer testing HAVE_DIRENT_H, for consistency with dirent.h. * m4/rewinddir.m4 (gl_FUNC_REWINDDIR): If DIR_HAS_FD_MEMBER is 0, ensure rewinddir.c gets compiled. * modules/rewinddir (configure.ac): Consider REPLACE_REWINDDIR. -- * lib/fchdir.c (dir_info_t): Remove a FIXME.
Many of the files in this directory are shared between the coreutils,
diffutils, tar and gettext packages -- and others, so if you
change them, try to ensure that you don't break those packages.
That's hard without a systematic approach, but here is a set of conventions
that makes it easy.
- The lib/ sources are split into modules. Usually the module of a
lib/foo.h and lib/foo.c is called "foo" - not unexpected, hey! -, but
in more ambiguous cases you can look up the module a file belongs to
by doing "grep lib/foo.c modules/*".
- For every module there is an autoconf macro file, usually called
m4/foo.m4 according to the module name. When you modify lib/foo.h or
lib/foo.c, remember to modify m4/foo.m4 as well!
What if you don't find m4/foo.m4? This probably means that the module
doesn't need autoconf support up to now (again, take a look in modules/*).
So you might need to create one.
- A module which defines a replacement function (i.e. a function which is
compiled only on systems which lack it or where it exists but doesn't
work satisfactorily) has a .m4 file with typically the following structure:
AC_DEFUN([gl_FUNC_FOO],
[
AC_REPLACE_FUNCS(foo)
if test $ac_cv_func_foo = no; then
gl_PREREQ_FOO
fi
])
# Prerequisites of lib/foo.c.
AC_DEFUN([gl_PREREQ_FOO], [
dnl Many AC_CHECK_* invocations.
])
- A module which is compiled on all platforms can define multiple functions
and be spread across multiple source files (although each time you do
this you should consider splitting the module, if the source files could
be independent). The .m4 file has typically the following structure:
AC_DEFUN([gl_FOO],
[
dnl Prerequisites of lib/foo.c.
dnl Many AC_CHECK_* invocations.
dnl Prerequisites of lib/foobar.c.
dnl Many AC_CHECK_* invocations.
])
- When a module FOO depends on a module BAR, you do *not* generally need
to write
AC_DEFUN([gl_FOO],
[
AC_REQUIRE([gl_BAR])
...
])
because the maintainers might want to use locally modified / renamed copies
of the module BAR.
- If the autoconf tests for the modules FOO and BAR have some checks in
common, still list them separately. Autoconf has two mechanisms for
avoiding that a configure file runs the same test twice: AC_REQUIRE
and AC_CACHE_CHECK. Trying to omit the checks leads to maintenance
problems: If FOO depends on BAR, and you omit a check from FOO's .m4 file,
later on, when someone modifies bar.c and removes the check from bar.m4,
he will not remember that foo.c needs the check as well.
- Now, how can you find the prerequisites of lib/foo.c? Try this:
"grep '#.*if' lib/foo.c | grep -v endif"
and for each HAVE_* macro search in the autoconf documentation what could
be the autoconf macro that provides it. This is only an approximation; in
general you should look at all preprocessor directives in lib/foo.c.
- In AC_RUN_IFELSE invocations, try to put as much information about failed
tests as possible in the exit code. The exit code is 0 for success and any
value between 1 and 127 for failure. The exit code is printed in config.log;
therefore when an AC_RUN_IFELSE invocation failed, it is possible to analyze
the failure immediately if sufficient information is contained in the exit
code.
For a program that performs a single test, the typical idiom is:
if (do_test1 ())
return 1;
return 0;
For a test that performs a test with some preparation, the typical idiom is
to return an enumerated value:
if (prep1 ())
return 1;
else if (prep2 ())
return 2;
else if (prep3 ())
return 3;
else if (do_test1 ())
return 4;
return 0;
For multiple independent tests in a single program, you can return a bit
mask with up to 7 bits:
int result = 0;
if (do_test1 ())
result |= 1;
if (do_test2 ())
result |= 2;
if (do_test3 ())
result |= 4;
return result;
For more than 7 independent tests, you have to map some possible test
failures to same bit.
- After ANY modifications of an m4 file, you should increment its serial
number (in the first line). Also, if this first line features a particular
release, _remove_ this release stamp. Example: Change
# setenv.m4 serial 2 (gettext-0.11.1)
into
# setenv.m4 serial 3
