[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 00/13] check all fclose usage

[Ganesh Ajjanagadde]

Some preliminary work has already been done on fclose checking. This completes
the work, modulo a few exceptions:
1. Things under an ifdef DEBUG or similar: these are not important.
2. Tests/tools code: also not important.
3. Likely not important, and beyond my knowledge: see lavu/arm/cpu.c. fclose is
done on read-only files, see get_cpuinfo, get_hwcap. Thus,
the importance of checking the return value is relatively little. Furthermore, /proc/cpuinfo is a method
that only works on Linux, on BSD's sysctl or other method must be used:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2006-March/117134.html.
Thus, a proper, portable solution may bypass fclose altogether.

Note that the choice of error level, e.g WARNING vs ERROR is subjective. Generally,
for the read only case, WARNING is used. In no case is the error propagated out
of the function; cursory glances reveal that it is usually not a critical error.
I may be entirely wrong in some cases.

In the case of ffserver, some nearby improvements were done. Most serious was the
build failure on non Linux machines.
