Subject: [PATCH] nftw: implement FTW_ACTIONRETVAL
nftw is sometimes used with e.g. FTW_SKIP_SUBTREE on linux which
requires special handling.
A similar patch was sent in 2018[1] and general feedbacks for nftw
seemed positive, but the original work's license was not clear so this
implementation was made without using it, looking at the linux man page
and comparing with glibc's behaviour through test programs.

A few notes:
- After checking there doesn't seem to be *that* many users, but there
still are quite a few, which can be found through debian code search:
https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=FTW_SKIP_SUBTREE&literal=1&perpkg=1
I'm personally interested in this for bpftool (in linux's source tree,
tools/bpf/bpftool/perf.c ) which uses it to run through /proc/*/fd/*
skipping unrelated directories, on alpine linux.
If this is refused I'll try to push a workaround there but doing it in
musl would allow dropping other compat patches (e.g. aufs-tools) with
a similar problem.
- I'm not happy that I had to copy the defines over, but I don't think
we can just define _GNU_SOURCE in nftw.c to get the values; if you have
any recommendation for this I would be happy to rework and test again
- the man page isn't clear on what to do with SKIP_SUBTREE if the entry
is not a directory, but testing shows it is just ignored on glibc 2.31
so I didn't add any check. The code is simpler that way.
- I looked into doing/modifying some test suite, but the only I could
find related to musl (libc-test) does not perform any runtime check on
nftw, so all my tests were just manually adjusting values and comparing.
Here is a trivial test program if that helps anyone:
---
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <ftw.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int cb(const char *path, const struct stat *sb, int typeflag, struct FTW *ftwbuf) {
printf("got %s\n", path);
if (strcmp(path, "./src") == 0)
return FTW_SKIP_SUBTREE;
if (strcmp(path, "./.git/description") == 0) {
return FTW_SKIP_SIBLINGS;
}
return 0;
}
int main() {
int rc = nftw(".", cb, 10, FTW_ACTIONRETVAL);
printf("rc %d\n", rc);
return 0;
}
