Subject: [PATCH] Don't require a FIFO to be identifiable as such
The jobserver specification [0] currently suggests that the FIFO must be a
genuine FIFO.
For some work we're doing [1][2], we're emulating a FIFO using CUSE/FUSE to allow
tracking when consumers disappear to avoid lost tokens. nixos had a similar
idea in the past too [3].
There doesn't seem to be a good reason to check that any FIFO passed by
the user is actually identifiable as such by `stat()`, so drop the check.
make already does not perform such a check, just the specification isn't
clear about it, so we've asked them to clarify it [4].
