2 * State diagram and cleanup
3 * -------------------------
5 * If the program exits while a temporary file is active, we want to
6 * make sure that we remove it. This is done by remembering the active
7 * temporary files in a linked list, `tempfile_list`. An `atexit(3)`
8 * handler and a signal handler are registered, to clean up any active
11 * Because the signal handler can run at any time, `tempfile_list` and
12 * the `tempfile` objects that comprise it must be kept in
13 * self-consistent states at all times.
15 * The possible states of a `tempfile` object are as follows:
17 * - Uninitialized. In this state the object's `on_list` field must be
18 * zero but the rest of its contents need not be initialized. As
19 * soon as the object is used in any way, it is irrevocably
20 * registered in `tempfile_list`, and `on_list` is set.
22 * - Active, file open (after `create_tempfile()` or
23 * `reopen_tempfile()`). In this state:
25 * - the temporary file exists
27 * - `filename` holds the filename of the temporary file
28 * - `fd` holds a file descriptor open for writing to it
29 * - `fp` holds a pointer to an open `FILE` object if and only if
30 * `fdopen_tempfile()` has been called on the object
31 * - `owner` holds the PID of the process that created the file
33 * - Active, file closed (after `close_tempfile_gently()`). Same
34 * as the previous state, except that the temporary file is closed,
35 * `fd` is -1, and `fp` is `NULL`.
37 * - Inactive (after `delete_tempfile()`, `rename_tempfile()`, or a
38 * failed attempt to create a temporary file). In this state:
41 * - `filename` is empty (usually, though there are transitory
42 * states in which this condition doesn't hold). Client code should
43 * *not* rely on the filename being empty in this state.
44 * - `fd` is -1 and `fp` is `NULL`
45 * - the object is left registered in the `tempfile_list`, and
48 * A temporary file is owned by the process that created it. The
49 * `tempfile` has an `owner` field that records the owner's PID. This
50 * field is used to prevent a forked process from deleting a temporary
51 * file created by its parent.
