Mon Feb 1 12:18:36 PST 2010 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_wait): Don't bother printing error messages for SIGINT and SIGQUIT, since these correspond to explicit user actions (Debian bug #568000). Wed Jan 13 23:42:00 GMT 2010 Werner Fink Add support for using socketpair(2) as a replacement for pipe(2), which is faster on some systems (Savannah patch #6741). * lib/pipeline.c [USE_SOCKETPAIR_PIPE]: Redefine pipe() to a construction based on socketpair().

Sun May 4 23:16:59 BST 2008 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_start, pipeline_pump): Zero sigaction structures before using them. (I believe we set all required fields anyway; this is just an extra safety catch.) Sun Apr 27 11:24:24 BST 2008 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_sigchld): assert is not async-signal-safe, so avoid calling it in a signal handler and use an if guard instead (Ubuntu bug #221635, although exactly why the assertion is failing there is unclear). Sun Feb 17 17:13:55 GMT 2008 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_wait): Call strsignal rather than xstrsignal.

Mon Sep 17 00:11:38 UTC 2007 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_start): Break after execvp, otherwise we segfault if execvp fails. Fri Aug 31 04:54:45 BST 2007 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_free): Call pipeline_wait if the pipeline is still running. * lib/pipeline.h (pipeline_free): Document that this may happen. Tue Aug 28 17:19:16 BST 2007 Colin Watson Implement and use a decompression library.

(pipeline_connect, pipeline_pump, get_block, pipeline_read, pipeline_peek, pipeline_peek_size, pipeline_peek_skip, get_line, pipeline_readline, pipeline_peekline): New functions. Mon Aug 27 20:02:17 BST 2007 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_wait): Re-raise SIGINT or SIGQUIT if they terminate a subprocess. Mon Aug 27 19:58:19 BST 2007 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_wait): Return 1 if we fail to close the pipeline's output. Mon Aug 20 00:10:49 BST 2007 Colin Watson Discard stderr from formatting processes when outputting to a pager, to avoid visual corruption from any error messages (thanks, Vincent Lefevre; Debian bug #372939). * lib/pipeline.h (struct command): Add discard_err member. * lib/pipeline.c (command_new, command_dup): Initialise discard_err. (pipeline_start): Redirect the child's stderr to /dev/null if discard_err is set.

Wed Feb 22 09:44:02 GMT 2006 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (command_new_argstr): Skip "exec" at the start of a command, to make old configuration files work (Debian bug #353959). Wed Sep 21 10:56:22 BST 2005 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_wait): Queue SIGCHLD for the whole time we're collecting child process statuses; we need to keep a careful count of processes. Forget any previous errno before calling reap_children. Should fix Debian bug #326488. Wed Sep 21 10:10:12 BST 2005 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_start, pipeline_wait): Ignore SIGINT and SIGQUIT in the parent while running subprocesses (Debian bug #328982). Thu Sep 1 14:10:07 BST 2005 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (argstr_get_word): Use an enum for quotemode rather than magic numbers. Mon Jul 11 18:12:58 BST 2005 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_wait): Emit a debugging message. Mon Jul 11 14:41:52 BST 2005 Colin Watson * include/manconfig.h.in: Define ATTRIBUTE_SENTINEL to a function attribute enabling sentinel checking if using GCC 4.0 or newer. (strappend): Use it. * lib/pipeline.h (command_new_args, command_args, pipeline_new_commands, pipeline_command_args, pipeline_commands): Likewise. Sun Dec 12 21:48:04 CET 2004 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_sigchld): Don't bother saving and restoring errno if SIGCHLD is being queued. Sun Nov 7 16:07:26 GMT 2004 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_wait): Close pipeline output before reaping processes, so that writing processes get SIGPIPE. Sun Nov 7 16:05:08 GMT 2004 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_wait): Fix active process debugging output to include processes without statuses. Mon Mar 8 11:21:05 GMT 2004 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_dump): Show caller-supplied input and output file descriptors. * lib/pipeline.c (command_free, pipeline_free): Return safely if argument is NULL. * lib/pipeline.h (command_free, pipeline_free): Document NULL arguments as a safe no-op, like free().

Thu Aug 28 00:40:09 BST 2003 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_start): Change "couldn't exec %s" to "can't execute %s" in line with src/man.c, to make translators' lives easier. (pipeline_wait): Separate "%s: %s%s" into two translatable strings: the "(core dumped)" portion should definitely be translated. Fri Aug 15 18:05:37 BST 2003 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c: Include instead of relying on basename() prototype in manconfig.h. Sat Aug 9 18:28:01 BST 2003 Colin Watson Replace the old "wait() for one child at a time" approach with a SIGCHLD-handling edifice that collects children's exit statuses as they die. * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_new): Initialize statuses. (pipeline_join): Set statuses to NULL in joined pipeline. (pipeline_join, pipeline_get_infile, pipeline_get_outfile, pipeline_start, pipeline_wait): Assert that statuses field is NULL or non-NULL as appropriate. (pipeline_free): Free statuses if necessary. (pipeline_start): Add p to a new active_pipelines array, to be used while reaping children. Initialize statuses elements to -1. Block SIGCHLD while forking children. (reap_children): New function. Delivers collected exit statuses into statuses fields of entries in active_pipelines. (pipeline_wait): Rather than wait()ing manually here, check whether any statuses have been picked up by the SIGCHLD handler, and if not call reap_children(). Remove now-obsolete TODO comment. (pipeline_sigchld): New function, the SIGCHLD handler. (pipeline_install_sigchld): New function, to be called once per program. (pipeline_start, pipeline_wait): Add minimal debugging information. * lib/pipeline.h: Prototype new functions. (struct pipeline): New statuses member. Sat Aug 9 17:00:12 BST 2003 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (command_dup): Copy cmd->nice. (pipeline_command): Correct condition for growing commands array.

(pipeline_tostring): Likewise, but to a newly allocated string. * lib/pipeline.h: Prototype these. Mon Aug 4 12:03:38 BST 2003 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (argstr_get_word): Plug some memory leaks. Mon Aug 4 01:05:12 BST 2003 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_wait): The return value was a bit groff-specific. Now just return the status of the last command in the pipeline, as reported by wait(). Mon Aug 4 00:31:44 BST 2003 Colin Watson Add support for getting stdio streams for input and output. Needs library support because pipeline_wait() needs to know to close the stream rather than the underlying file descriptor. * lib/pipeline.h (struct pipeline): New infile and outfile members. (pipeline_get_infile, pipeline_get_outfile): Add prototypes. * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_new): Initialize infile and outfile. (pipeline_join): Likewise. (pipeline_get_infile, pipeline_get_outfile): New functions. (pipeline_wait): Check for infile and outfile and fclose() them in preference to close()ing infd and outfd. Check for errors on close(). Sun Aug 3 23:59:18 BST 2003 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_start): Use dup2() instead of close() then dup(). Sun Aug 3 23:52:14 BST 2003 Colin Watson infd and outfd should now only be set by pipeline_start(). Positive values in want_in and want_out now indicate caller-supplied file descriptors, while negative values indicate a request for pipeline_start() to create a pipe. * lib/pipeline.h (struct pipeline): Document this. * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_start): Implement it. Caller-supplied input and output file descriptors previously didn't work properly. (pipeline_wait): Update TODO comment. Sun Aug 3 21:07:46 BST 2003 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.h (struct command): New 'nice' member. * lib/pipeline.c (command_new): Initialize nice.

Sun Aug 3 20:47:24 BST 2003 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (argstr_get_word, command_new_argstr, command_argstr, pipeline_command_argstr): New functions to handle constructing commands from shell-quoted strings, such as those found in man-db configuration files. They deliberately handle only a safe subset of shell syntax. * lib/pipeline.h: Prototype command_new_argstr(), command_argstr(), and pipeline_command_argstr(). Sun Aug 3 19:09:59 BST 2003 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c (command_dup): New function to duplicate a command. (pipeline_join): New function to join two pipelines together. * lib/pipeline.h: Prototype these. Sun Aug 3 18:00:59 BST 2003 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.h (struct pipeline): The writeto, readfrom, writefd, and readfd names turn out to be confusing in calling code. Rename to want_in, want_out, infd, and outfd respectively. * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_new, pipeline_start, pipeline_wait): Use new names. Sun Aug 3 16:35:24 BST 2003 Colin Watson Add support in pipeline library for writing input to or reading output from the whole pipeline. * lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_new): Initialize writeto, readfrom, writefd, and readfd. (pipeline_start): Create extra pipes as necessary. (pipeline_wait): Expand TODO comment. Close file descriptors from extra pipes if necessary. * lib/pipeline.h (struct pipeline): Add writeto, readfrom, writefd, and readfd. Sun Aug 3 11:15:17 BST 2003 Colin Watson * lib/pipeline.c: New pipeline library, adapted from that in groff. The interface isn't complete yet; in particular, it can't be a replacement for popen() at the moment. * lib/pipeline.h: New file with pipeline library interface.
