EMACS 18.57 patches for Linux 0.12:
|
|
|
|
These patches are in two parts:
|
|
|
|
1) two small kernel patches to fix some minor problems (fs-diff):
|
|
select.c: a pipe with no writer should select as readable to
|
|
allow detection of EOF
|
|
also, the kernel now silently corrects any attempts to
|
|
select more file descriptors than are supported (this
|
|
avoids the bit loss on left shift problem reported on
|
|
the activists list)
|
|
|
|
pipe.c: (I sent this to Linus for 0.12, but it didn't make it):
|
|
reads on a pipe should return partial results.
|
|
Otherwise, programs expecting to get such reads will
|
|
work weirdly.
|
|
|
|
2) patches to the EMACS 18.57 distribution to build it for Linux-0.12.
