commit 3f3f551c6c751848dab34c19e7fdcfb286a095f8 Author: Andrew Price Date: Fri Nov 8 10:06:54 2013 +0000 Fix processing of trace filenames containing spaces blktrace_to_dump passes filenames containing spaces to blkparse via system() so only the first chunk of the string is taken to be the filename by the subprocess. This switches to using posix_spawnp() so that we can present the filename as an element of argv and avoid iowatcher failing in these cases. rhbz#1004865 Signed-off-by: Andrew Price diff --git a/tracers.c b/tracers.c index d70c4a6..e78ecc4 100644 --- a/tracers.c +++ b/tracers.c @@ -31,11 +31,14 @@ #include #include #include +#include #include "plot.h" #include "blkparse.h" #include "list.h" +extern char **environ; + static int line_len = 1024; static char line[1024]; @@ -191,10 +194,29 @@ int wait_for_tracers(void) int blktrace_to_dump(char *trace_name) { - snprintf(line, line_len, "blkparse -O -i %s -d '%s.%s'", - trace_name, trace_name, "dump"); + pid_t pid; + int err; + int i; + char *argv[] = { + "blkparse", "-O", + "-i", NULL, + "-d", NULL, + NULL + }; + + argv[3] = trace_name; + snprintf(line, line_len, "%s.dump", trace_name); + argv[5] = line; + + fprintf(stderr, "running blkparse"); + for (i = 0; i < 6; i++) + fprintf(stderr, " %s", argv[i]); + fprintf(stderr, "\n"); - system(line); + err = posix_spawnp(&pid, "blkparse", NULL, NULL, argv, environ); + if (err != 0) + return err; + waitpid(pid, NULL, 0); return 0; }
