tar has deficient error handling. send-pr fix sent 31 Jan 2011

FreeBSD tar has deficient error handling.  I sent a fix 31 Jan 2011
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=154407
Please commit the fix or write & commit a better fix.

As error codes ignored, I wonder if other poor coding may lurk in tar.  
Might be nice if someone else would read through tar.

ports/ : Tar allows some errors in ports pkg-list to go un-noticed.
  Using make package, tar fails to see errors, fails to return error
  to make, some pkg-list not checked properly & accumulate errors,
  A bunch of errors will probably show up when tar is fixed, the
  more the longer we do nothing.  ( I can't remember which pkg-list
  are broken, I've not kept note, The solution is to read tar &
  commit a fix to tar ASAP)

Cheers,
Julian

How'd you go about generating all these .conf files?

I don't see where you defined USB_* as variables in them either.  Maybe you 
could point me at it?

Hi Warner,

It looks like he is simply grepping for the USB_VENDOR_XXX entries in the *.c 
files. I would like to have these config files in 9-current when all the 
issues are resolved regarding auto-generating the .conf files.

Hi,

I need some people testing the following patch:

http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/223486

svn up and build a new kernel.

Try to remove all USB devices from kernel config except the host controllers 
and USB keyboard. Then put the following file into /etc/devd/

http://hselasky.homeunix.org:8192/bus_auto.conf

MD5 (bus_auto.conf) = 4a1130910cdbe0a5d3eca86b0b12f533

Verify using kldstat that modules are loaded when you plug a new USB device.

Hi,

Turns out some additional patches were needed:

http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/223489

Please try again.

Updated bus_auto.conf:

http://hselasky.homeunix.org:8192/bus_auto.conf

MD5 (/etc/devd/bus_auto.conf) = c321d1801f0fa3c6260eeef7061330e8
