some distros 9notably in this case nixos) want to do reproducible builds. to them this means going around setting mtime for all files to 0. this means efreetd not only thinks mtime is invalid/stupid (0 is generally just that as midnight on jan 1 1970 is not exactly a sensible dare for a modified timestamp of a file as no filesystem with any sanity will have not been modified since that time), but it keeps mtime at 0 even when things update. this totally breaks efreetd that expects to find mtime increases over time as things change. it's necessary because it has to perform a "are mu caches up to date" scan of all file data it caches and it needs to know if it should rebuild something based on this. so this does a few things: 1. it makes mtime have to be an exact match to the cache, not cache mtime >= file mtime. so any change forward or back is an inavlidation. 2. it now also uses ctime, mode, size, uid, gid, block count and if a symlink, the sha1 of the symlink path in addition and any change to these == invalid. this adds a lot of code and changes how dirs get scanned a bit but it means it can pick up changes on these 0 mtime distros. interestingly the policy of mtime being 0 is to have a reprodcible fs ... but ctime still changes and is > 0, as does inode info, so it's not actually possible to have it totally work... but they try still, so this is a fix for that problem. whilst i was doing thisi also noticed efreetd re-red dirs many times due to icon theme inhritance. i also fixed that to do a LOT less syscalls by only scanning a dir once as i was rejigging the scanning code at the time anyway. this should optimize thr scan costs at efreetd startup too. @fix @opt |
