In addition, the narrow types creep from there into fts.c. As a result, fts(3) consumers, e.g., find(1) or rm(1), can't handle file trees an ordinary user can create, which can have security implications. To fix the historic implementation of fts(3), OpenBSD and NetBSD have already changed <fts.h> in somewhat incompatible ways, so we are free to do so, too. This change is a superset of changes from the other BSDs with a few more improvements. It doesn't touch fts(3) functionality; it just extends integer types used by it to match modern reality and the C standard. Here are its points: o For C object sizes, use size_t unless it's 100% certain that the object will be really small. (Note that fts(3) can construct pathnames _much_ longer than PATH_MAX for its consumers.) o Avoid the short types because on modern platforms using them results in larger and slower code. Change shorts to ints as follows: - For variables than count simple, limited things like states, use plain vanilla `int' as it's the type of choice in C. - For a limited number of bit flags use `unsigned' because signed bit-wise operations are implementation-defined, i.e., unportable, in C. o For things that should be at least 64 bits wide, use long long and not int64_t, as the latter is an optional type. See FTSENT.fts_number aka FTS.fts_bignum. Extending fts_number `to satisfy future needs' is pointless because there is fts_pointer, which can be used to link to arbitrary data from an FTSENT. However, there already are fts(3) consumers that require fts_number, or fts_bignum, have at least 64 bits in it, so we must allow for them. o For the tree depth, use `long'. This is a trade-off between making this field too wide and allowing for 64-bit inode numbers and/or chain-mounted filesystems. On the one hand, `long' is almost enough for 32-bit filesystems on a 32-bit platform (our ino_t is uint32_t now). On the other hand, platforms with a 64-bit (or wider) `long' will be ready for 64-bit inode numbers, as well as for several 32-bit filesystems mounted one under another. Note that fts_level has to be signed because -1 is a magic value for it, FTS_ROOTPARENTLEVEL. o For the `nlinks' local var in fts_build(), use `long'. The logic in fts_build() requires that `nlinks' be signed, but our nlink_t currently is uint16_t. Therefore let's make the signed var wide enough to be able to represent 2^16-1 in pure C99, and even 2^32-1 on a 64-bit platform. Perhaps the logic should be changed just to use nlink_t, but it can be done later w/o breaking fts(3) ABI any more because `nlinks' is just a local var. This commit also inludes supporting stuff for the fts change: o Preserve the old versions of fts(3) functions through libc symbol versioning because the old versions appeared in all our former releases. o Bump __FreeBSD_version just in case. There is a small chance that some ill-written 3-rd party apps may fail to build or work correctly if compiled after this change. o Update the fts(3) manpage accordingly. In particular, remove references to fts_bignum, which was a FreeBSD-specific hack to work around the too narrow types of FTSENT members. Now fts_number is at least 64 bits wide (long long) and fts_bignum is an undocumented alias for fts_number kept around for compatibility reasons. According to Google Code Search, the only big consumers of fts_bignum are in our own source tree, so they can be fixed easily to use fts_number. o Mention the change in src/UPDATING.

It assumes that each subdirectory will have a hard link to its parent, to represent the ".." node, and stops calling stat(2) when all links are accounted for in a given directory. This assumption is really only valid for UNIX-like filesystems: A concrete example is NTFS. The NTFS "i-node" does contain a link count, but most/all directories have a link count between 0 and 2 inclusive. The end result is that find on an NTFS volume won't actually traverse the entire hierarchy of the directories passed to it. (Those with a link count of two are not traversed at all) The fix checks the "UFSness" of the filesystem before enabling the optimisation. Reviewed By: Tim Kientzle (kientzle@)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hack, thereby allowing future extensions to the structure (e.g., for extended attributes) without rebreaking the ABI. FTSENT now contains a pointer to the parent stream, which fts_compar() can then take advantage of, avoiding the undefined behavior previously warned about. As a consequence of this change, the prototype of the comparison function passed to fts_open() has changed to reflect the required amount of constness for its use. All callers in the tree are updated to use the correct prototype. Comparison functions can now make use of the new parent pointer to access the new stream-specific private data pointer, which is intended to assist creation of reentrant library routines which use fts(3) internally.
