| Summary | 0000539: tighten du regarding files encountered through multiple command line arguments | ||||||
| Description |
0000527 gave a resolution that for TC2 of Issue 7, du would be documented as having unspecified behavior if a file is encountered multiple times through multiple command line arguments, but also added a future directions stating that this may be tightened in the future. Issue 8 is the perfect time to make these additional restrictions binding on implementations. The desired action is written assuming that 0000527 has already been applied, but uses line numbers from Issue 7. |
||||||
| Desired Action |
Change line 84170 [du DESCRIPTION] from: A file that occurs multiple times under one file operand and that has a link count greater than 1 shall be counted and written for only one entry. It is implementation-defined whether a file that has a link count no greater than 1 is counted and written just once, or is counted and written for each occurrence. It is implementation-defined whether a file that occurs under one file operand is counted for other file operands. to: A file that occurs multiple times shall be counted and written for only one entry, even if the occurrences are under different file operands. In RATIONALE, after line 84272, add a paragraph: The use of the -L option, or of multiple file operands, requires that du track all file entries encountered, even with a link count of one. However, when -L is not used and only a single file operand is given, an implementation can optimize by only tracking files with a link count greater than one, since in that scenario, those are the only files that could be encountered more than once. In FUTURE DIRECTIONS, change line 84274 from: A future version of this standard may require that a file that occurs multiple times shall be counted and written for only one entry, even if the occurrences are under different file operands. to: None |
