Builtin FSMonitor Feature
Here is V2 of my patch series to add a builtin FSMonitor daemon to Git.
V2 includes addresses most of the review comments from the RFC and many of
the issues seen during out beta-testing with selected GVFS users. However,
there are still a few items that I need to address:
[ ] Revisit the how the client handles the IPC_STATE__NOT_LISTENING state
(where a daemon appears to be running, but is non-responsive) [ ] Revisit
use of global core_fsmonitor as both a pathname and a boolean. The existing
fsmonitor code uses it as the pathname to the fsmonitor hook and as a flag
to indicate that a hook is configured. [ ] Consider having daemon chdir()
out of the working directory to avoid directory handle issues on Windows. [
] Some documentation recommendations. [ ] Split up the commit containing the
tests and move some earlier in patch series. [ ] Move my FSMonitor PREREQ to
test-lib.sh instead of having it in my test scripts. [ ] Document
performance gains. [ ] On Windows, If the daemon is started as an elevated
process, then client commands might not have access to communicate with it.
[ ] Review if/how we decide to shutdown the FSMonitor daemon after and a
significant idle period. [ ] Investigate ways to temporarily shutdown
FSMonitor daemons processes so that the Git for Windows installer can
install an upgrade.
In this version, the first commit updates the Simple IPC API to make it
easier to pass binary data using {char *, size_t} rather than assuming that
the message is a null-terminated string. FSMonitor does not use binary
messages and doesn't really need this API change, but I thought it best to
fix the API now before we have other callers of IPC.
This V2 version will hopefully be previewed as an experimental feature in
Git for Windows v2.32.0.windows.*.
