2006-12-28inotail.c: Use consistent nomenclature for struct file_struct pointersTobias Klauser1-29/+29
f for pointers to one struct file_struct files for pointers to an array of struct file_struct
2006-12-28inotail.c: Add and use ignore_file() functionTobias Klauser1-7/+9
2006-12-28inotail.c: Handle return value of inotify_add_watch()Tobias Klauser1-2/+8
2006-12-23inotail.c: Print usage to stdoutTobias Klauser1-1/+1
2006-12-23inotail.c: Keep tailing moved files by fdTobias Klauser1-1/+1
As a side effect of the recent change to not reopen files while watching (commit 1ddefac3dfe654f23fc944df5d7c52a078692012) it's possible now to follow moved files by their open fd.
2006-12-21inotail.c: Don't open files over and over againTobias Klauser1-11/+19
Up to now files were closed after processing each inotify event which seems to be quite a bit of overhead. The fds are now kept open and are only closed in case of errors.
2006-12-18inotail.c: Minor cleanups and addition of an unlikely()Tobias Klauser1-7/+4
2006-12-15inotail.c: return instead of breakTobias Klauser1-5/+2
2006-12-14inotail.c: Move some macros to inotail.hTobias Klauser2-10/+8
Some typos and useless blank lines are also fixed.

2006-12-08Makefile: Remove dependency on Makfile from all targetTobias Klauser1-1/+1
2006-12-04Officially release inotail 0.2v0.2Tobias Klauser1-1/+1
2006-11-30changelog: Correct the versionTobias Klauser1-1/+1
2006-11-30Added changelogTobias Klauser1-0/+7
2006-11-20Makefile: Replace deprecated call to git-tar-treeTobias Klauser1-2/+2
git-archive --format=tar is used now
2006-11-16inotail.c: Reorder lines_to_offset* functionsTobias Klauser1-31/+37
Make lines_to_offset() just a wrapper function to check whether to tail from begin or from end of the file. The real work is done in lines_to_offset_from_begin() and lines_to_offset_from_end()
2006-11-15Makefile: Remove duplicate -Wsign-compare from $WARNTobias Klauser1-1/+1
2006-11-15Minor documentation changesTobias Klauser2-5/+6
2006-11-15Add license information to Makefile and inotail.hTobias Klauser2-0/+9
2006-11-09Dynamically allocate memory for the inotify event bufferTobias Klauser1-4/+7
By using malloc(3) depending on the number of files we have, the memory footprint can be reduced. Before this change, the buffer size was 32 * sizeof(struct inotify_event) which was an overhead when just tailing some few files. Now the memory is allocated depending on the number of files to tail. I know of no occassion where I received more than one event at a time per file, so the '2 *' can probably be dropped too.
2006-11-08Document -n/-c +N featureTobias Klauser2-9/+14
That should make inotail POSIX tail compatible
2006-11-08Spelling fixes and some small code reorderingTobias Klauser1-8/+6
2006-10-26inotail.c: Support inotail -n +<num>Tobias Klauser1-4/+51
Add function lines_to_offset_from_begin() to allow tailing relative to the begin of the file. Also handle the case where the argument for '-c' or 'n' is '+0'. Like GNU tail (and according to its source also tail in UNIX) print the whole file in this case.
2006-10-25Various change to allow tailing bytes relative to the beginTobias Klauser2-10/+10
"Simplyfy" and inline bytes_to_offset, extend it to support tailing relative to begin of file. Boolean relative makes no sense, make it a char containing 0 for relative to end and 1 for relative to begin.
2006-10-24inotail.c: Introduce relative tailingTobias Klauser1-6/+9
The global variable 'relative' states whether we're tailing relative to the end (R_END, default) or the begin of the file. Also do some minor comment reformatting.
2006-10-21Unify wording all over the treeTobias Klauser6-8/+8
According to the Linux source it's: * s/linux/Linux/ * s/Kernel/kernel/ * s/Inotify/inotify/ (except at the beginning of a sentence)
2006-10-20inotail.c: Add basic support for +/-<num> to -c/-nTobias Klauser2-2/+9
2006-10-20inotail.c: More n_units cleanupTobias Klauser1-6/+6
Make n_units unsigned and rename some more variables to the appropriate form.
2006-10-20inotail.c: rename n_lines to n_unitsTobias Klauser1-5/+5
2006-10-17inotail.c: Better error handling in tail_file()Tobias Klauser1-9/+14
Close fd on any error, rename rc variable to cleanly state what it's for.
2006-10-16inotail.c: Make pretty_name() an inlineTobias Klauser1-1/+1
2006-10-05Makefile: Simplify clean ruleTobias Klauser1-3/+1
2006-10-05Better file type checking and more meaningful return valuesTobias Klauser1-3/+12
2006-10-05Clean all cscope generated filesTobias Klauser1-1/+1
2006-09-27Move inotify event handling into own functionTobias Klauser1-50/+53
2006-09-26Add notice about inotify.h and inotify-syscalls.h to License sectionTobias Klauser1-0/+4
Thanks to Daniel Baumann
2006-09-26Define unlikely() only for GCCTobias Klauser1-2/+5
Some compilers probably don't know __builtin_expect
2006-09-26Add unlikely macroTobias Klauser2-2/+4
And use it for a really unlikely case
2006-09-26Add check for the case that no file produced the inotify eventTobias Klauser1-2/+5
This could use an unlikely()
2006-09-24Add license and copyright.Tobias Klauser1-0/+9
Don't know whether it is correct to set myself as copyright holder as I only drew this file together from various source in the kernel source, but all of them stating no copyright information.
