Files-from data is now sent as multiplexed I/O so that it can mingle
with any messages (such as debug output). Requires protocol 31.
Protocol 31 no longer disables output verbosity in a couple instances
that used to cause protocol issues.
Got rid of MSG_* messages that have implied raw data that follows after
them. We instead send a negative index value as a part of the raw data
stream, which is guaranteed to be output together with the following
data. This only affects the (in-progress) protocol 31 and the (self-
contained) communication stream from the receiver to the generator.
Added --debug=IO and improved --debug=FLIST. Some --debug=IO output
requires --msgs2stderr to be used to see it (i.e. sending a message
about sending a message would send another message, ad infinitum).
Since the value is not needed, protocol 31 no longer sends it, while
older protocols are optimized so the sender just sends a valid rdev
value as efficiently as possible. The receiver no longer caches an
rdev value for special files, and the generator will always pass a 0
rdev value to do_mknod() for special files. Fixes bug #6280.
- Implement --ignore-missing-args.
- In the absence of --*-missing-args, a missing source arg is an
FERROR_XFER, but doesn't need to be an IOERR_GENERAL.
- Revise the man page.
recursion scan is still active. Mention the output change more
prominently in the NEWS file. Updated the --progress output in
the manpage, with mention of the new "ir-chk" string's meaning.
This avoids a problem where an extra message from the sender
could give the generator time to start sending data that will
not be understood by the sender's use of read_msg_fd().
This fixes an issue with -K noticed by eric casteleijn, avoids some
inconsistent itemizing when a file/dir is replaced by a dir/file,
and removes a now-obsolete chunk of code from make_file().
- Mention how many files were created (protocol >= 29).
- Mention how many files were deleted (new in protocol 31).
- Follow the file-count, created-count, and deleted-count
with a break-out list of each count by type.
list that is transferred. This fixes a glitch where a failed
--iconv conversion on the receiving side could prevent deletions
from happening in the root-dir of the transfer.
(making pools aligned by default). Added the missing code to make the
documented behavior of pool_free() with a NULL addr work. Updated the
pool_alloc.3 manpage.
