Include stat-macros.h.
Include stdlib.h, for abort().
Don't include stdio.h or assert.h; no longer needed.
(same_file_type): Don't assume S_IFMT is defined, as POSIX
does not require this. Don't assume S_IFCHR and S_IFBLK have
their usual sort of bit pattern.
(fchmod_new): Open with O_NOCTTY for as well, for minor
improvement on hosts where that matters. Don't bother to assert,
since the caller (in this source file) checks the same thing.
Discard any errno from a close failure, for consistency with other
code.

chdir-safer cleanup
2005-12-25 21:35:51 +00:00
8b9f6b163a
(chdir_no_follow): Don't include stdio.h, assert.h,
...
unistd.h, fcntl--.h; not needed.
(O_DIRECTORY): Define if not already defined.
(chdir_no_follow): Revamp describing comment to match code more
closely. Redo use of internal vars to avoid lint complaints.
Work even if directory is writeable but not readable.
Open with O_DIRECTORY | O_NOCTTY, for benefit of hosts that
don't have O_NOFOLLOW. Use O_NONBLOCK (POSIX spelling) rather
than O_NDELAY. Don't bother invoking fstat if open does not
dereference symlink, since the result isn't used then.
Don't assume file descriptor is positive; it might be zero
now that we no longer include fcntl--.h (we don't need fcntl--.h
since we immediately close the descriptor).
