John K. Luebs	42ee20a9e1	Improve error handling and setting of xattr and file flags ... - Improve error handling of file flags and xattrs. You now get warnings - file flags on *BSD/Darwin use a mask and combine with the user/superuser mask to prevent spurious warnings. The mask is not yet implemented as a preference - error handling/report for reading special files - bump to go 1.20 for errors.Join	2023-10-06 05:57:02 -05:00
John K. Luebs	c782def49b	Fix and reorganize for build for FreeBSD ... - the xattr handling of namespaces is different on BSD with the xattr package, the user namespace is implicit - Don't backup/exclude files with flag nodump on BSD/Darwin	2023-10-04 23:55:30 -05:00
John K. Luebs	5b40bf3d93	Fix handling of xattrs with symlinks ... Fix Linux, Darwin, and other BSD (untested) to allow proper handling of xattrs with symlinks. On Linux we cannot use the f* syscalls for symlinks because symlinks cannot be opened. File flags must be handled differently on darwin and other BSD due to the lack of the LCHFLAGS syscall on darwin, and the fact that it is emulated in libc. However, we do have O_SYMLINK on darwin.	2023-10-04 02:53:48 -05:00
