Hi,
Like to report a bug with simple fix below:
unlink(old_file);
if (make_hard_link(outfile, old_file) == 0) {
/* Okay, got the hard link. Yay. Now we've got our
backup version, so just put the new version in
place. */
if (rename(new_file, outfile)) {
/* Weird, the rename didn't work. But the old version
should still be in place, so no special cleanup is
needed. */
<<<<<
unlink(old_file); <<<<< In case of rename() failure,
outfile should be fine.
<<<<< But old_file is extra from above make_hard_link(), and should be
removed.
retval = errno;
goto errout;
}
} else if (errno == ENOENT && can_create) {
