This is suboptimal + (holding a file descriptor open longer than needed), but otherwise not + a problem on Unix-like kernels. However, on Cygwin with certain Novell + file systems, (see http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2011-10/msg00365.html), + that represents a real problem: it causes the removal of A to fail + with e.g., "rm: cannot remove `A': Device or resource busy" + + fts visits each directory twice and keeps a cache (fts_fd_ring) of + directory file descriptors. After completing the final, FTS_DP, + visit of a directory, RESTORE_INITIAL_CWD intended to clear the FD + cache, but then proceeded to add a new FD to it via the subsequent + FCHDIR (which calls cwd_advance_fd and i_ring_push). Before, the + final file descriptor would be closed only via fts_close's call to + fd_ring_clear. Now, it is usually closed earlier, via the final + FTS_DP-returning fts_read call. + * lib/fts.c (restore_initial_cwd): New function, converted from + the macro. Call fd_ring_clear *after* FCHDIR, not before it. + Update callers. + Reported by Franz Sirl via the above URL, with analysis by Eric Blake + in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/28739 + +2011-10-23 Gary V.
