2bcccc224c Don't skip the initialisation of tl->len when we hit an EOF immediately
after allocating a new buffer. This bug caused `tail -r < /dev/null'
to core dump when the `J' malloc option is set, and also affected
any other input that was an exact multiple of 128k.

76628ce773 Save last displayed file by having the "last" pointer global and save it
during we show the first file's tail.  Instead of:

	tarsier% tail -f 1 2
	==> 1 <==
	foo
	bar

	==> 2 <==
	bar
	foo

	==> 2 <==
	bar2
	foo2

Now with this change, we have:

	tarsier% tail -f 1 2
	==> 1 <==
	foo
	bar

	==> 2 <==
	bar
	foo
	bar2
	foo2

While I'm there, move a comment to where it should belong to.  Also,
const'ify the "last" static because we will never need to change the
contents it points to.

7b51f66476 Removed check of st_rdev changing in the -F support. st_rdev for regular
files is usually the first direct block pointer. Since FreeBSD does
automatic block reallocation to reduce filesystem fragmentation, the
file being tailed can be relocated to different blocks 'on-the-fly',
making the check for st_rdev unreliable. The result of this bug is
tail -F pseudo-randomnly thinking the file was rotated when it wasn't,
and as a result, spews out the entire file trying to catch up.

aee1bac713 Since kqueue support was added to tail, the "-F" option (check for
renames/rotations) only detected cases where the file itself was
moved or deleted. If part of the path to the file (or a symlink
in the path) was changed instead, tail would not notice.

Fix this by ensuring that we stat the path at least once every
second in the -F case to check for changes. We still use kqueue
when possible to inform us quickly when the file has changed.

bd9dc97512 File positions are off_t nowdays, not long, so:
long -> off_t
strtol -> strtoll
fseek -> fseeko

NOTE: that fseek not works for >long offsets files per POSIX:

[EOVERFLOW] For fseek( ), the resulting file offset would be a value which
cannot be represented correctly in an object of type long.

a8fb4e2810 o If the file being tailed is moved back to the original location,

  o auto-clear the read filter on EOF; this is needed when tailing a FIFO.

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

Andrey A. Chernov
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.
