I was working back from that if statement. Let's try this again. How does this look? In this version: - "outbuf" is where we keep the (possibly partial) data collected to be eventually shown; - output of pending (possibly partial) data is handled by a helper function drain(). It is responsible for prepending of the PREFIX, which is treated purely as a cosmetic thing. It also is responsible for completing an incomplete line at the end of the transmission (e.g. flushing of the buffered input upon reception of the emergency exit packet). - locally generated errors go directly to fprintf(stderr), bypassing outbuf (hence drain()). sideband.c | 43 +++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------ 1 file changed, 25 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) diff --git a/sideband.c b/sideband.c index 226a8c2..6873137 100644 --- a/sideband.c +++ b/sideband.c @@ -18,6 +18,16 @@ #define ANSI_SUFFIX "\033[K" #define DUMB_SUFFIX " " +static void drain(struct strbuf *outbuf) +{ + if (!outbuf->len) + return; + strbuf_splice(outbuf, 0, 0, PREFIX, strlen(PREFIX)); + strbuf_complete_line(outbuf); + fwrite(outbuf->buf, 1, outbuf->len, stderr); + strbuf_reset(outbuf); +} + int recv_sideband(const char *me, int in_stream, int out) { const char *term, *suffix; @@ -26,20 +36,21 @@ int recv_sideband(const char *me, int in_stream, int out) const char *b, *brk; int retval = 0; - strbuf_addf(&outbuf, "%s", PREFIX); term = getenv("TERM"); if (isatty(2) && term && strcmp(term, "dumb")) suffix = ANSI_SUFFIX; else suffix = DUMB_SUFFIX; - while (retval == 0) { + while (!retval) { int band, len; len = packet_read(in_stream, NULL, NULL, buf, LARGE_PACKET_MAX, 0); if (len == 0) break; if (len < 1) { - fprintf(stderr, "%s: protocol error: no band designator\n", me); + drain(&outbuf); + fprintf(stderr, "%s: protocol error: no band designator\n", + me); retval = SIDEBAND_PROTOCOL_ERROR; break; } @@ -48,7 +59,8 @@ int recv_sideband(const char *me, int in_stream, int out) len--; switch (band) { case 3: - fprintf(stderr, "%s%s\n", PREFIX, buf + 1); + drain(&outbuf); + strbuf_addf(&outbuf, "%s\n", buf + 1); retval = SIDEBAND_REMOTE_ERROR; break; case 2: @@ -58,13 +70,12 @@ int recv_sideband(const char *me, int in_stream, int out) * Append a suffix to each nonempty line to clear the * end of the screen line. * - * The output is accumulated in a buffer and each line - * is printed to stderr using fprintf() with a single - * conversion specifier.
