When falloc() was broken into separate falloc_noinstall() and finstall(), a bug was introduced in kern_openat() such that the error from the vnode open operation was overwritten before it was passed as an argument to dupfdopen(). This broke operations on /dev/{stdin,stdout,stderr}. Fix by preserving the original error number across finstall() so that it is still available.It might be worth mentioning this in UPDATING or similar, since a kernel built with clang (I haven't tried gcc) during this window will make it impossible to do a buildworld without first rebuilding the kernel with this fix. It also seems to break at least portsnap, and possibly other tools as well.
Entry now in UPDATING, thanks! I've also sent out a warning to current@. Robert _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
