ConstructLocalPath in util/dirpath.c appears to currently be broken when
applied to relative paths due to deficient logic in LocalizePathHead.
Observe (Debian bos against Debian bosserver, where Debian's bosserver is
configured to store logs in /var/log/openafs):
(root) windlord:~> bos getlog afssvr40 BosLog
Fetching log file 'BosLog'...
bos: no such entity (while reading log)
(root) windlord:~> bos getlog afssvr40 /var/log/openafs/BosLog
Fetching log file '/var/log/openafs/BosLog'...
Mon Nov 6 10:58:34 2006: Server directory access is okay
(root) windlord:~> bos getlog afssvr40 /usr/afs/logs/BosLog
Fetching log file '/usr/afs/logs/BosLog'...
Mon Nov 6 10:58:34 2006: Server directory access is okay
In the first case, strace on the server shows that the bosserver is trying
to open /usr/afs/logs.
ConstructLocalLogPath calls ConstructLocalPath saying that the provided
path should be considered relative to the canonical wireformat log path
(/usr/afs/logs), and LocalizePathHead does the appropriate adjustment if
the provided path actually starts with that prefix. However, if it
doesn't, LocalizePathHead does nothing, and ConstructLocalPath then
creates a path relative to the canonical wireformat path rather than the
local path.
Here's a patch. Does this look right?
(I may also do s/current/map/ on the variable names to keep the lines
shorter than 80 columns.)
