a8fb4e2810 o If the file being tailed is moved back to the original location,
resume using kqueue to monitor it, if possible.
  o auto-clear the read filter on EOF; this is needed when tailing a FIFO.

a74da62e70 Back out my fseeko -> fseek(END) change - we need to position on what we
displayed last, not to the end of file

462da59fb1 Restore part of my fix spammed in v1.23:
fseeko(file_size, SEEK_SET) -> fseek(0L, SEEK_END)
1) File may grows between operations, so fseeko to file_size may miss
2) 0L, SEEK_END is the same code using in tail in all other places

ad859a471d Treat mmap() error as fatal too, i.e. do exit(1) instead of return 2001-03-26 19:36:27 +00:00

4f2554b7b7 rlines() checks:
1) really check for size overflow by checking negative value.
2) since mmap() not support files over INT_MAX size, add check for it
until either mmap() will be fixed or tail will be rewritted to handle
large files alternatively.
3) replace fseek(... file_size, SEEK_SET) with fseek(... 0L, SEEK_END)
to avoid off_t -> long cast
4) Use exit() if file is too big instead of warning and wrong logic
afterwards.

ea9bd2df1d If the kevent() registration fails (probably due to the underlying
filesystem not being kq-aware), then fall back to using sleep.  This
allows tail to work with NFS filesystems again without chewing up CPU time.

When given the -F flag, resort to sleep/stat after the file was moved
or deleted.  This allows a window where the file being tailed does not
exist at all, which is typically the case during log rotation.  Switch
back to using kq (if possible) after the file is reopened.

3be5f1f5ce Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

     .\"    $Id$
     .\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

eb1c943900 Add a new -F flag which is a superset of -f. It will cause tail to
stat() the file being followed and do a close/reopen if the file has been
renamed and/or rotated.  This is damn useful for leaving running on files
in /var/log when newsyslog(8) rotates them.

8abdc2eb40 Sweep through the tree fixing mmap() usage:
- Use MAP_FAILED instead of the constant -1 to indicate
    failure (required by POSIX).
  - Removed flag arguments of '0' (required by POSIX).
  - Fixed code which expected an error return of 0.
  - Fixed code which thought any address with the high bit set
    was an error.
  - Check for failure where no checks were present.

ac5512704d Argh! caught! *blush*.. This program was supplying it's own 'err' routine

0a6f6077af Fix some bogons:
- timeval in select loop was depending on not having the remaining time
  returned from select(), causing a busy spin on an implementation that
  does implement it.
- the err() usage was pretty bogus, some of the error messages had
  strerror attached manually and then reattached by err().

49a598ab87 when file can be opened for read but cannot be read from:
fail once (was twice) in forward case
fail once (was no times) in reverse case

this can happen when file is a directory on an NFS or procfs mount.
