Revision b928095b0a7cff7fb9fcf4c706348ceb8ab2c295 authored by Miklos Szeredi on 24 September 2014, 15:56:17 UTC, committed by Al Viro on 27 September 2014, 01:16:42 UTC
If overwriting an empty directory with rename, then need to drop the extra
nlink.

Test prog:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <err.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>

int main(void)
{
	const char *test_dir1 = "test-dir1";
	const char *test_dir2 = "test-dir2";
	int res;
	int fd;
	struct stat statbuf;

	res = mkdir(test_dir1, 0777);
	if (res == -1)
		err(1, "mkdir(\"%s\")", test_dir1);

	res = mkdir(test_dir2, 0777);
	if (res == -1)
		err(1, "mkdir(\"%s\")", test_dir2);

	fd = open(test_dir2, O_RDONLY);
	if (fd == -1)
		err(1, "open(\"%s\")", test_dir2);

	res = rename(test_dir1, test_dir2);
	if (res == -1)
		err(1, "rename(\"%s\", \"%s\")", test_dir1, test_dir2);

	res = fstat(fd, &statbuf);
	if (res == -1)
		err(1, "fstat(%i)", fd);

	if (statbuf.st_nlink != 0) {
		fprintf(stderr, "nlink is %lu, should be 0\n", statbuf.st_nlink);
		return 1;
	}

	return 0;
}
