Description jau 2015-04-30 13:34:08 UTC 
Created attachment 156148 [details]
A patch to add the appropriate O_CLOEXEC flags and to remove the fcntl() calls

The same report applies to both 11.0-CURRENT and 10.1-STABLE.

In libdtrace there are a few calls to fcntl() to set FD_CLOEXEC for
file descriptors for which the easier and more robust approach would
be setting O_CLOEXEC already when calling open().

Cc: gnn in case of interest.

The patch looks good to me. Mark, as the one most likely to be affected by changes in cddl/contrib/opensolaris/lib/libdtrace on a future import, what do you think of the approach in the patch, vs #ifdef FreeBSD / #ifdef illumos guards throughout?
Comment 3 Mark Johnston freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2017-08-30 03:36:25 UTC 
(In reply to Ed Maste from comment #2)
I think the patch is fine as-is. Given the relatively slow pace of upstream development, I'm not inclined to add ifdefs around every small deviation. Also, illumos now has O_CLOEXEC, so it'd be easy to integrate this upstream at some point in the future.
