Also, in the process, fix a bug in fs.realpath on Windows.
If the user has permission to create symlinks, then use symlinks. If
not, then skip over all the tests that cannot be run using Junctions
instead.
This implements server.listen({ fd: <filedescriptor> }). The fd should
refer to an underlying resource that is already bound and listening, and
causes the new server to also accept connections on it.
Not supported on Windows. Raises ENOTSUP.
* When the process is already dead, but the `exit` signal wasn't raised
yet, the ESRCH error should be ignored.
* When an invalid signal is specified, kill() should throw.
* Like process.kill(), child_process.kill() now preserves a `0` signal
which can be used to check the liveliness of the child process.
* process.kill() and child_process.kill() will now return true if the
signal was actually delivered, and false otherwise.
* When an `exec`-ed process is automatically killed because a time or
buffer limit is exceeded, and the kill() fails, this error should be
reported through the `exec` callback.
Fixes: #3409
Callbacks that were passed to the binding layer ran in the context of the
(internal) binding object. Make sure they run in the global context.
Before:
fs.symlink('a', 'b', function() {
console.log(this); // prints "{ oncomplete: [Function] }"
});
After:
fs.symlink('a', 'b', function() {
console.log(this); // prints "{ <global object> }"
});
The server 'close' event was emitted before the last client 'close' event. Not
exactly fatal but potentially confusing.
Before this commit the order looked something like [client, server, client],
now it looks like [client, client, server].
See #3340 for more details.
In case a fd option is given to fs.createReadStream a read will instantly
happen. But in the edge case where fd point to an empty file and .pause()
was executed instantly, the end event would emit since no async wait was
between fs.createReadStream and the file read there emits end.
In case a worker would spawn a new subprocess with process.env, NODE_UNIQUE_ID
would have been a part of the env. Making the new subprocess believe it is a
worker, this would result in some confusion if the subprocess where to listen to
a port, since the server handle request would then be relayed to the worker.
This patch removes the NODE_UNIQUE_ID flag from process.env on startup so any
subprocess spawned by a worker is a normal process with no cluster stuff.
request.end() would sometimes try to write a zero-length buffer to the socket.
Don't do that, it triggers an unnecessary EPIPE when the other end has closed
the connection.
Fixes #3257.
