2005-12-28*** empty log message ***Jim Meyering
2005-12-28(EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-sc_prohibit_assert_without_use.Jim Meyering
2005-12-28(sc_obsolete_symbols): Prohibit use of O_NDELAY.Jim Meyering
(sc_prohibit_assert_without_use): New rule. (syntax-check-rules): Add it to the list. (CVS_LIST): Define in terms of $(srcdir).
2005-12-28Don't include <assert.h>; it wasn't used.Jim Meyering
2005-12-27chdir-related fixesPaul Eggert
2005-12-27(wipename): Use similar open flags to other places we open directories.Paul Eggert
Don't bother trying to open dir for writing, since POSIX prohibits it.
2005-12-27(fd_to_subdirp): Open with O_DIRECTORY | O_NOCTTYPaul Eggert
| O_NOFOLLOW too, for consistency with other dir-openers. Use POSIX-preferred O_NONBLOCK rather than O_NDELAY. (is_empty_dir): Likewise.
2005-12-27(restricted_chown):Paul Eggert
Don't try O_WRONLY unless O_RDONLY failed wth EACCES.
2005-12-27(save_cwd): Don't bother trying to open directoryPaul Eggert
for write access: POSIX says that must fail.
2005-12-27(rpl_chown) [CHOWN_MODIFIES_SYMLINK]:Paul Eggert
Don't try O_WRONLY unless O_RDONLY failed wth EACCES. Fall back on chown if open failed with EACCES.
2005-12-27(defined_S_IFMT): New macro.Paul Eggert
Include stat-macros.h. Include stdlib.h, for abort(). Don't include stdio.h or assert.h; no longer needed. (same_file_type): Don't assume S_IFMT is defined, as POSIX does not require this. Don't assume S_IFCHR and S_IFBLK have their usual sort of bit pattern. (fchmod_new): Open with O_NOCTTY for as well, for minor improvement on hosts where that matters. Don't bother to assert, since the caller (in this source file) checks the same thing. Discard any errno from a close failure, for consistency with other code.
2005-12-27(diropen): Don't bother trying to open directory for write access:Paul Eggert
POSIX says that must fail.
2005-12-27(chdir_no_follow): Don't bother trying to open directory for writePaul Eggert
access: POSIX says that must fail.
2005-12-27(cdb_free): Don't bother trying to open directoryPaul Eggert
for write access: POSIX says that must fail. (cdb_free): Open with O_NOCTTY | O_NONBLOCK as well, for minor improvements on hosts that lack O_DIRECTORY.
2005-12-26(chdir_no_follow): Move declaration of local,Jim Meyering
sb2, `down' into the scope where it is used. Note that on some systems this function also fails when DIR is a writable-yet-unreadable directory.

2005-12-25chdir-safer.c still needs unistd.hPaul Eggert
2005-12-25Whoops; don't remove the include for unistd.h, since it defines fchdir.Paul Eggert
2005-12-25chdir-safer cleanupPaul Eggert
2005-12-25(chdir_no_follow): Don't include stdio.h, assert.h,Paul Eggert
unistd.h, fcntl--.h; not needed. (O_DIRECTORY): Define if not already defined. (chdir_no_follow): Revamp describing comment to match code more closely. Redo use of internal vars to avoid lint complaints. Work even if directory is writeable but not readable. Open with O_DIRECTORY | O_NOCTTY, for benefit of hosts that don't have O_NOFOLLOW. Use O_NONBLOCK (POSIX spelling) rather than O_NDELAY. Don't bother invoking fstat if open does not dereference symlink, since the result isn't used then. Don't assume file descriptor is positive; it might be zero now that we no longer include fcntl--.h (we don't need fcntl--.h since we immediately close the descriptor).
2005-12-25(FCHMOD_SAFER_H): Remove: it was misnamed, and wasn't needed anyay.Paul Eggert
2005-12-25*** empty log message ***Jim Meyering

2005-12-20(RW_USR): Remove definition.Jim Meyering
(make_dir_parents): Use S_IRWXU, now that read access is also required. Avoid a race condition, on systems where open honors O_NOFOLLOW. (make_dir_parents): Include chdir-safer.h. Use chdir_no_follow in place of chdir.

2005-12-20(make_dir_parents): Remove unnecessary casts of alloca,Jim Meyering
since now it's guaranteed to be (void *).
