Hi Giuseppe, I've realized that there is a good way to remove the ugly exclusion that currently disables inotify-based tail -f when --pid is specified. Instead of the existing while-1-loop around code that reads the inotify FD, we can use a loop that polls that single FD with a 1-2-second timeout. Then, it can periodically run the usual PID-alive check. Are you interested in doing that?
Between this, the ls -1U bug, and the btrfs O(1) copy, I'm now expecting to defer the release by at least a week. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
