# This script is a wrapper to the other download helpers.
# Its role is to ensure atomicity when saving downloaded files
# back to BR2_DL_DIR, and not clutter BR2_DL_DIR with partial,
# failed downloads.
#
# Call it with:
# $1: name of the helper (eg. cvs, git, cp...)
# $2: full path to the file in which to save the download
# $*: additional arguments to the helper in $1
# Environment:
# BUILD_DIR: the path to Buildroot's build dir
# To avoid cluttering BR2_DL_DIR, we download to a trashable
# location, namely in $(BUILD_DIR).
# Then, we move the downloaded file to a temporary file in the
# same directory as the final output file.
# This allows us to finally atomically rename it to its final
# name.
# If anything goes wrong, we just remove all the temporaries
# created so far.
# We want to catch any unexpected failure, and exit immediately.

# tmpf is the file in which the helpers should put the downloaded content.

# $(BR2_DL_DIR)
# We let the helpers create tmpf, so they are able to set whatever
# permission bits they want (although we're only really interested in
# the executable bit.)

# they are free to create whatever files and/or sub-dirs they might need.
# Doing the 'cd' here rather than in all helpers is easier.

# This can be problematic when a shared BR2_DL_DIR is used by different
# users (e.g. on a build server), where all users may write to the shared
# location, since other users would not be allowed to read the files
# another user downloaded.
# So, we restore the 'go' access rights to a more sensible value, while
# still abiding by the current user's umask. We must do that before the
# final 'mv', so just do it now.
# Some helpers (cp and scp) may create executable files, so we need to
# carry the executable bit if needed.

# name (very, very unlikely; but not impossible.)

# if it is unable to open it with O_WRONLY|O_TRUNC; see:
# http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/cp.html
# Since the destination filesystem can be anything, it might not support
# O_TRUNC, so 'cp' would unlink it first.

# since that is the only way we can be 100% sure of the behaviour.
