Reduce the overhead of fork/execve/perl startup time by not
doing those for every files that are checked.
This also makes the check execution complete faster.
On similar systems and similar background load, the execution time
varies based on how find(1) outputs the (*.[ch]) files it sees on
filesystem -- the filenames are not sorted but are written from
directories src/ include/ clients/ t/ in that order -- more than
80% of the time goes checking files in src/, and how the 16-file
batches from that dir (108 files in src/, 208 total, as of 2026-01)
are distributed the checkpatch.pl processes affect mostly to the
total run time.
Based on swaynag (https://github.com/swaywm/sway/tree/master/swaynag)
Copied at commit:
03483ff370
Contains the following modifiations:
- Some functional changes including:
- Disable exclusive-zone by default (Written-by: @Consolatis) and add
command line option -x|--exclusive-zone
- Add close timeout (Written-by: @Consolatis) and -t|--timeout option
- Use index of button (from right-to-left) for exit code
- Disable reading from config file and remove associated --type option
- Refactoring including:
- Use wlr_log() instead of the log.{c,h} functions
- Use wl_list instead of sway's list.c implementation
- In the pango wrapper functions, use glib's g_strdup_vprintf() rather
than the original stringop.c functions
- Align with labwc coding style to pass checkpatch.pl
- Re-licenced from MIT to GPL-2.0, and add Copyright notices for original
authors
v2
- Remove option -s|--dismiss-button and the default "X" button. To get
such a button, "-Z X :"
- Remove options -b and -z because there is no requirement to run
in a terminal.
- Remove *-no-terminal from options --button and --button-dismiss because
commands are now always run directly without a terminal.
v3
- Allow -B/-Z options without action-argument
- Invert button order of -B/-Z so that `labnag -m foo -Z x -Z y -Z z`
results in three buttons with "x" furthest to the left, and "z" on the
right (rather than the other way around).
- Use signalfd() to prevent race conditions on SIGTERM
v4
- Limit number of stdin lines to 200 to avoid hogging CPU
