I believe readdir(3) overhead is already high, and adding extraneous lookups to
add metadata which is not readily available under NTFS/exFAT would slow it even
further.
Do you really want readdir(3) or stat(3) to recurse to sum the entry sizes for
each subdirectory?
Some of us have some large messy directories more reminiscent of Unix systems
than typical of Windows systems.

SOCK_NONBLOCK not honored
Hi,
Looks like CYGWIN defines but does not honor the SOCK_NONBLOCK flag when used
with socket(2).
(It also defines SOCK_CLOEXEC but I haven't checked whether it is honored --
full disclosure.)
Consider the following code:
$ cat bug.c
#include
#include
#include
#include
#include
#include
#include
#include
#ifdef BUG
# define SOCK_TYPE (SOCK_STREAM | SOCK_NONBLOCK)
#else
# define SOCK_TYPE SOCK_STREAM
#endif
int main()
{
char buf[80];
ssize_t n;
struct sockaddr_in in;
int s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_TYPE, 0);
#ifndef BUG
fcntl(s, F_SETFL, O_NONBLOCK);
#endif
memset(, 0, sizeof(in));
in.sin_family = AF_INET;
in.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_LOOPBACK);
in.sin_port= htons();
if (connect(s, (struct sockaddr*) , sizeof(in)) < 0) {
int err;
socklen_t len = sizeof(err);
struct pollfd pfd;
if (errno != EINPROGRESS) {
printf("connect failed immediately: %m\n");
return 1;
}
memset(, 0, sizeof(pfd));
pfd.fd = s;
pfd.events = POLLOUT;
if (!poll(, 1, 1000)) {
printf("poll timed-out\n");
return 2;
}
if (pfd.revents & (POLLERR | POLLHUP)) {
printf("poll failed 0x%04X\n", pfd.revents);
return 3;
}
if (getsockopt(s, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ERROR, (void*) , ) != 0) {
printf("getsockopt failed: %m\n");
return 4;
}
if (err != 0) {
printf("connect failed: %s\n", strerror(err));
return 5;
}
}
errno = 0;
n = recv(s, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
printf("Got %zd byte(s): %m\n", n);
return 0;
}
When the program is built on Linux with and without the macro BUG defined, the
result is all the same,
the last recv() correctly finishes with -1 and EAGAIN (run "nc -l " as a
server).
$ gcc -Wall -o bug bug.c
$ ./bug
Got -1 byte(s): Resource temporarily unavailable
$ gcc -Wall -DBUG -o bug bug.c
$ ./bug
Got -1 byte(s): Resource temporarily unavailable
However, on CYGWIN when the code is compiled with -DBUG, the last recv()
becomes blocking, and the program never exits:
$ gcc -Wall -o bug bug.c
$ ./bug
Got -1 byte(s): Resource temporarily unavailable
$ gcc -Wall -DBUG -o bug bug.c
$ ./bug
...
strace confirms that the recv() has blocked the execution. Also, connect()
appears to be blocking, too, but it's harder to see.
Thanks,
Anton Lavrentiev

iostream exceptions uncaught with CYGWIN GCC/7.3.0
Hi,
Please consider the following code:
$ cat bug.cpp
#include
using namespace std;
void fun()
{
string dummy;
cin >> dummy;
}
int main()
{
cout << "FAIL = 0x" << hex << ios::failbit << endl;
cout << "EOF = 0x" << hex << ios::eofbit << endl;
cout << "BAD = 0x" << hex << ios::badbit << endl;
cin.exceptions(ios::eofbit | ios::failbit);
try {

}
catch (ios_base::failure&) {
cerr << "Failure caught!" << endl;
}
catch (...) {
cerr << "Failure uncaught! 0x" << hex << cin.rdstate() << endl;
}
return 0;
}
When this program is compiled and run on Linux, the exception gets caught:
$ uname -a

However, same commands on Cygwin, and the exception goes unhandled:
$ uname -a

BAD = 0x1
Failure uncaught! 0x6
We've seen this behavior before on Linux too, when the C++ ABI was changed
(w/GCC 5.x). I guess CYGWIN packages a version of C++ STDLIB whose ABI is
incompatible with default compiler settings.
Here's some explanation of what might be the culprit.
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/using_dual_abi.html says that:
> Using the default configuration options for GCC the default value of the

Do note that -size on directories is filesystem dependent.
I.e. on ext2+ it's the number of bytes allocated to directory structure, in
multiplies of whole blocks.

Just as predicted.
If you want to find files, search for files.
find . -type f ...

Having something to this extent would be useful in case of searching for
directories with too many files, for example.
I'd vote for something like (entries << 7), which is closer to an average ext2
counter. No need to ignore anything.

Cygwin-test result (perhaps leaking file descriptors)
Hi all, I've updated cygwin1.dll to https://cygwin.com/snapshots/x86/cygwin1-20181029.dll.xz before running this test: 09:20:00 Started by timer 09:20:00 [EnvInject] - Loading node environment variables. 09:20:00 Building remotely on NKJ-Win10 (WIN64) in workspace d:\jenkins-slave-dtdkcphpw200063-1\workspace\Misc\Count-synergy-locks 09:20:00 [Count-synergy-locks] $ sh -xe C:\cygwin\tmp\jenkins6589319230840350781.sh 09:20:01 Cygwin wrapper for Jenkins (C:\cygwin\sh.exe v1) 09:20:01 ++ ccm monitor --showlocks 09:20:01 ++ wc -l 09:20:01 + OUTPUT=169 09:20:01 + echo 169 09:20:01 169 09:20:01 + sleep 169 09:22:25 Process leaked file descriptors.

I see no reason for "sleep" to leak file descriptors? Now I'll run some more tests to check if it happens again. If you need a test case, this could be a candidate. BTW, the troubleshooting link is outdated.

I've read the https://cygwin.com/faq.html and in particular: https://cygwin.com/faq.html#faq.setup.snapshots without finding a way to run the test release other than simply replacing the cygwin1.dll with the snapshot one. It seems to run fine, I've deployed to one of the Jenkins build agents some hours ago. My question: Is a "test" version of the setup program with an updated setup.ini available somewhere? It can be installed by the standard setup, just select 2.11.2-0.1 from the available versions of cygwin package. The new setup show better the test versions available. https://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2018-10/msg00167.html Thank you, I simply did not notice the "Test" check-box in the upper right corner (available even in 2.893).
