Re: [Patch] Segfault on unaligned lseek() on /dev/sdX (was: [ITP] ddrescue 1.3)
Hi Christian, On May 20 17:02, Christian Franke wrote: fhandler_dev_floppy::lseek() always clears the 60KB pre-read buffer, even on lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_CUR); If a programm (like ddrescue) always calls lseek() before each read(), performance is poor, because the same block is read several times. With this new version of the patch, the buffer is only cleared if necessary. Thanks for the patch. I've checked in a simplified version of the buffer allocation which doesn't require calling alloca. While at it, I also added error handling in case raw_read fails. As for the devbuf part of the patch, it's missing a ChangeLog entry. Can you please send one, possibly in present tense?

declare hsearch_r
Cygwin already exports newlib's hsearch_r, but failed to declare it in cygwin's replacement search.h. This leads to unnecessary warnings when compiling cygwin, at the point where newlib is trying to compile uses of hsearch_r. 2007-05-21 Eric Blake [EMAIL PROTECTED] * include/search.h (hsearch_r): Provide declaration.

Does Cygwin have a problem with running multiple scripts at the same time? If so, is there a way around this? If Cygwin had a problem with running multiple scripts at the same time, it would have been noticed already. This sounds like either your local configuration is broken (multiple cygwin1.dlls, known incompatible software, etc), or you've stumbled upon a tcsh bug. That said, I don't use tcsh, and can only offer some generic advice. Take a look at http://cygwin.com/problems.html and follow the guidelines for problem reporting (pay particular attention to the part that asks you to provide your system configuration details).

AllowUsers Help
Hi, I just signed up for this forum since it looks like there's quite a bit of useful information on Cygwin here. I have already consulted the Cygwin manual and searched this forum (http://www.nabble.com/forum/Search.jtp?forum=12165local=yquery=allowusers) but I haven't been able to find the answer to my question. I picked up a book on SSH (SSH, The Secure Shell from O'Reilly) and it discussed limiting SSH logins with the AllowUsers command. In the directory cygwin/etc/defaults/etc, I added the AllowUsers setting with Notepad in the ssh_config file but nothing happened. I could still log in with other accounts. I then removed this setting and added it in the sshd_config file in the same directory. Still nothing. I removed the setting again. In the cygwin/etc directory, I added the AllowUsers setting. This time it worked only too well. Now, I could not even log in and I was the one who was allowed. I added the setting near the beginning of the file in each of the three files (as the second or third line) although I'm not sure whether this is significant. Since I'm somewhat new to Cygwin, I'm not sure what info is relevant to include as I ask for help. I'm running Cygwin on a Windows XP Home Edition computer. Any help would be great. Thanks!

As for the file addresses, I tried to include them as they are listed in Windows Explorer and as I see them when I look in Cygwin. There is one file listed at /etc but there are two files listed at /etc/defaults/etc. Sorry for any confusion. Thanks for the info!

ps command
Apologies for asking this. I asked it many years ago and did not get an answer that allowed me to progress. I can not find the earlier replies but of course cygwin has improved since then. I have a program that runs in the background a bit like at daemon. It is called 'qseek'. I want to know whether it is running from a script. On linux I run ps in the script and grep the output to see if 'qseek' is there. On cygwin all I get is this line:- 1688 11876 36440 1004 15:03:03 /usr/bin/perl because qseek is a perl script. Is there any way that I can get output of the running processes that will include the text, 'qseek'? Or can anyone suggest a work around. I need a script to be able to find out whether qseek is running, in order to start it if it is not, and leave it running if it is. I am trying again to get this code working correctly on cygwin as well as linux.

I personally use something resembling alias ps='procps aux --forest'. By the way this very same question came up just the other week.
