Modified files:
usr.bin/tail forward.c
Log:
Since kqueue support was added to tail, the "-F" option (check for
renames/rotations) only detected cases where the file itself was
moved or deleted. If part of the path to the file (or a symlink
in the path) was changed instead, tail would not notice.
Fix this by ensuring that we stat the path at least once every
second in the -F case to check for changes. We still use kqueue
when possible to inform us quickly when the file has changed.
