write a new test to exercise the hardlink strategies used
by different archive formats (tar, old cpio, new cpio).
This uncovered two problems, both fixed by this commit:
1) Enforce file size when writing files to disk.
2) When restoring hardlink entries, if they have data associated, go
ahead and open the file so we can write the data.
In particular, this fixes bsdtar/bsdcpio extraction of new cpio
formats where the "original" is empty and the subsequent "hardlink"
entry actually carries the data. It also provides correct behavior
for old cpio archives where hardlinked entries have their bodies
stored multiple times in the archive; the last body should always be
the one that ends up in the final file. The new pax format also
permits (but does not require) hardlinks to carry file data; again,
the last contents should always win.
Note that with any of these, a size of zero on a hardlink simply means
that the hardlink carries no data; it does not mean that the file has
zero size. A non-zero size on a hardlink does provide the file size.
Thanks to: John Baldwin, for reminding me about this long-standing bug
and sending me a simple example archive that prompted this test case
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
