Subject: [PATCH 0/5] watch: Maildir fixes
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2020 10:34:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200629103421.31016-1-e@yhbt.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200627100400.9871-1-e@yhbt.net>

The introduction of NNTP and IMAP support in -watch introduced
some annoying-but-non-fatal regressions for existing Maildir
users, in one case due to a race fix.

  https://public-inbox.org/meta/20200627100400.9871-1-e@yhbt.net/

It turned out -watch could missing full scans at startup due
to the old alarm(1)-triggered scan firing too soon, and
switching to signalfd(2)[*] exposed performance problems fixed
by [PATCH 1/5] in this series.

PATCH 2/5 was just a minor debugging change while I was fixing
commit 52e37476e8e62e8e54104d9a2abcf2a86d1d1a32
("eml: header_str_set: correctly encode UTF-8 headers")

3 & 4 may not be strictly necessary at the moment, but they
could be in the future if subprocesses (spamc, git) we spawn
ever depend on SIGCHLD.  More signals may be unblocked in
subprocesses in the future, perhaps only SIGINT (from Ctrl-C)
could remain masked.

Finally, 5/5 fixes the zombies introduced which kicked off
the investigation into this series.

Eric Wong (5):
  watch: check for duplicates in ->over before spamcheck
  watch: show path for warnings from spam messages
  watch: ensure SIGCHLD works in forked children
  spawn: unblock SIGCHLD in subprocess
  watch: make waitpid() synchronous for Maildir scans
