2014-11-27libbb: use sendfile() to copy data between file descriptorsBartosz Golaszewski
Busybox already uses sendfile in httpd. This patch proposes to use it globally to copy data between file descriptors. It speeds up the copying on slow systems a lot - below are the times needed to copy a 450Mb file with and without this option enabled on a BeagleBone Black: sendfile: user 0m0.000s sys 0m8.170s read/write 4k: user 0m0.470s sys 0m16.300s function old new delta bb_full_fd_action 394 474 +80 Signed-off-by: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartekgola@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko <vda.linux@googlemail.com>
2010-08-16*: make GNU licensing statement forms more regularDenys Vlasenko
This change retains "or later" state! No licensing _changes_ here, only form is adjusted (article, space between "GPL" and "v2" and so on). Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko <vda.linux@googlemail.com>

2007-12-02Introduce FEATURE_COPYBUF_KB.Denis Vlasenko
People who want smaller stack at any cost may use it to reduce cp's stack usage (FEATURE_COPYBUF_KB=1). Desktop people may get faster copy of big files (FEATURE_COPYBUF_KB=32 is ~30% faster than 4kb)

2006-04-03- move buffer allocation schemes to libbb.hBernhard Reutner-Fischer
- include the correct headers: applets need busybox.h while lib* need libbb.h
2006-03-06Robert P. Day removed 8 gazillion occurrences of "extern" on functionRob Landley

2005-11-12My last change to this file broke tar x. Sigh. (Trying to make sure we workRob Landley
on file sizes between 2 and 4 gigs on 32 bit machines. For supporting >4 gigs, just use a 64 bit machine already...)
2005-11-04Fix bug 424: doing full_read breaks things like cat which should return aRob Landley
chunk of data when they get it and not block until they've buffered 4k. The use case was cat /proc/psaux, but you can also reproduce this by running non-busybox cat by itself and typing things at the command line. Then run busybox cat. Notice how cat is _supposed_ to echo each line back to us as we hit enter?

2004-02-23bb_full_fd_action was incorrectly returning an error message causingGlenn L McGrath
major breaking.
2004-02-21Sometimes i get carried away with the use of function pointers, im sureGlenn L McGrath
it seemed like a good idea at the time.
2003-11-24When a size of 0 is passed to copyfd_size, dont do anything, it wasGlenn L McGrath
reading untill eof which breaks tar
2003-11-22Fix warningGlenn L McGrath
2003-11-21As we no longer use function pointers for read in common archiving codeGlenn L McGrath
archive_xread can be replaced with bb_full_read, and archive_copy_file with bb_copyfd* bb_copyfd is split into two functions bb_copyfd_size and bb_copyfd_eof, they share a common backend.
