Subject: [PATCH] journalctl: Periodically call sd_journal_process in
de541a
 journalctl
de541a
de541a
If `journalctl` take a long time to process messages, and during that
de541a
time journal file rotation occurs, a `journalctl` client will keep
de541a
those rotated files open until it calls `sd_journal_process()`, which
de541a
typically happens as a result of calling `sd_journal_wait()` below in
de541a
the "following" case.  By periodically calling `sd_journal_process()`
de541a
during the processing loop we shrink the window of time a client
de541a
instance has open file descriptors for rotated (deleted) journal
de541a
files.

(Lennart: slightly reworked version, that dropped some of the commenting
de541a
which was solved otherwise)
