value < 0. errno is only updated in this case. Change all (most?)
callers of syscalls to follow this better, and let's see if this strictness
helps us in the future.
event_reinit) - if the child gets a signal and fires the libevent signal
handler during this period it could write a signal into the parent's
signal pipe. GitHub issue 1001 from Aaron van Geffen.
around, we can't use file descriptors for the working directory because
we will be unable to pass it to a privileged process to tell it where to
read or write files or spawn children. So move tmux back to using
strings for the current working directory. We try to check it exists
with access() when it is set but ultimately fall back to ~ if it fails
at time of use (or / if that fails too).
socketpair and setting it to -1 to mark when the other side is
closed. This avoids closing it while the libevent bufferevent still has
it (it could try to add it to the polled set which some mechanisms don't
like). Fixes part a problem reported by Bruno Sutic.
fire-and-forget.
Status jobs now managed with two trees of output (new and old), rather
than storing the output in the jobs themselves. When the status line is
processed any jobs which don't appear in the new tree are started and
the output from the old tree displayed. When a job finishes it updates
the new tree with its output and that is used for any subsequent
redraws. When the status interval expires, the new tree is moved to the
old so that all jobs are run again.
This fixes the "#(echo %H:%M:%S)" problem which would lead to thousands
of identical persistent jobs and high memory use (this can still be
achieved by adding "sleep 30" but that is much less likely to happen by
accident).
This moves the client-side loops are pretty much fully over to event-based only
(tmux.c and client.c) but server-side (server.c and friends) treats libevent as
a sort of clever poll, waking up after every event to run various things.
Moving the server stuff over to bufferevents and timers and so on will come
later.
status jobs, then only kill those jobs when status-left, status-right or
set-titles-string is changed.
Fixes problems with changing options from inside #().
