was developed as part of Google's Summer of Code 2005 program. This
change adds the kernel code, the mount_tmpfs utility, a regression test
suite and does all other related changes to integrate these.
The file-system is still *experimental*. Therefore, it is disabled by
default in all kernels. However, as typically done, a commented-out
entry is added in them to ease its setup.
Note that I haven't commited the required mountd(8) changes to be able
to export tmpfs file-systems because NFS support is still very unstable
and because, before enabling it, I'd like to do some other changes.
OK'ed by my project mentor, William Studenmund (wrstuden@).
. we now handle ^C correctly in all cases
. blanks and alnum chars are ignored in the shellmeta option, as the code
brokenly said it should
. \ can be used to escape any (special) character in file names
character instead of using the IS_ESCAPE() macro which tests for ^V because the
former is mandated by the standards, and the latter is insane.
This is a very small part in addressing PR bin/26046 by lukem@.
Before, in order to escape a special character, you had to use a literal ^V,
which is type ^V twice before the character; whereas now, you use \.
Because the fix will remain partial for a while, you have to remove \ from
your shellmeta option otherwise the \ is swallowed by the invoked shell that
handles arguments expansion.
Please complain if you want ^V^V to also work, but please don't call me a
heretic.
of ignoring alphanumerical and blank characters from the shellmeta option.
The former code was using a character pointed to by a pointer as a boolean
to check whether to enable this functionality, but in the meantime the pointer
was used for something else. Introduce a variable for this boolean so that
the functionality actually works.
of text-recording input (usually text in insert mode) from the other cases
(e.g. ex command input). If recording, morph to escape key so that the input
is correctly finished for a potential replay; if not, simply bail out and
notify that something wrong occurs. Callers will cope.
The previous fix could make ^C sometimes produce a file completion
or a command edition, depending on the settings of the user.
I think this is the correct fix for since closed PR bin/11544 by pooka@. ;-)
outside the group array in the case that a user is member of more than
_SC_NGROUPS_MAX groups.
(This is probably also the problem behind PR bin/31069 by Zafer Aydogan.)
So check the return value and retry with sufficiently allocated memory
in case the initial _SC_NGROUPS_MAX groups are not enough.
