If I restart i3 4.10.2 twice, e.g. with
$ i3-msg restart; sleep 3; i3-msg restart
the second time I get the following two errors:
05/22/15 10:46:03 - ERROR: mkdir(/tmp/i3-theo.toAK7N) failed: File exists
05/22/15 10:46:03 - ERROR: Could not create "/tmp/i3-theo.toAK7N" for storing the restart layout, layout will be lost.
The first one is from mkdirp() in src/ipc.c and the second one is from
store_restart_layout() in src/util.c.
Notice that I do _not_ get the ``open()'' or ``Could not write restart layout to
...'' error messages, so the layout writing code after line 260 in
store_restart_layout() succeeded and the layout isn't actually lost. Thus,
these error messages are a bit misleading, especially the second one (which is
triggered by the failure of mkdirp()).
POSIX says about `mkdir -p':
``Each dir operand that names an existing directory shall be ignored without
error.''
Therefore, I suggest the following simple patch that makes mkdirp() succeed if
the named file exists and actually is a directory. This silences the second
error as well.
* <xyz> denotes that some string must be used which is not a fixed value (e.g., a command), but a variable string (text, a number, ...)
* [xyz] denotes that the parameter is optional
* abc|xyz denotes that either abc or xyz must be given
Try to detect base 16 numbers given to `con_id` and `id` for command criteria
by setting the base of strtol to 0. This should also detect octal.
This is necessary because mouse bindings now may be serialized as hex as of
5c32de4.
* Motivate users to come up with clear and minimal instructions on how to reproduce a problem before submitting an issue.
* Encourage users to restart i3 before reproducing the problem so that the log file can stay small and noise-free.
* Mention the non-support of closed source software.
The comment immediately following implied that this was the intended
behaviour. Not doing so means that compound commands that both move a
window to a new workspace as well as do something that depends on the
workspace's geometry (e.g. 'move position center' or 'floating enable'
on a tiled window) would use the workspace's calloc'd 0x0+0x0 geometry.
When InputHint is not in WM_HINTS (i.e., the flag is not set), treat the window
as if the InputHint was set (the default behavior). This means that i3 will
focus the window when it becomes managed.

%p is equivalent to either %x or %lx, depending on the pointer size of the
platform. Before this commit, we always used %d, which has the same behavior
on Linux, but is not automatically expanded to %ld on e.g. FreeBSD.
