It's the - same basic idea as the existing code, except it uses the full ISAAC - approach (called the "more kosher" approach in the existing comments). - This makes "sort -R" quite a bit slower (about a factor of 2 on my - little tests involving 10000 lines on a 2.4 GHz P4), but I think it's - better to be conservative here at first, and review any performance - improvements carefully. - * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add src/rand-isaac.c. - * src/rand-isaac.h: Remove.

Make the local an `int' instead. - - * NEWS: Mention sort's new options. - - * src/rand-isaac.c (isaac_mix): Declare to be static. - Mark all other functions as `extern' so the tight-scope - part of `make distcheck' passes once again. - * src/rand-isaac.h (isaac_mix): Remove declaration. - - * src/sort.c (get_hash): Change position of `*' in parameter - type to conform with convention. - (main): Split a long line so it fits in 80 columns. - (keycompare): Remove stray SPACE before TAB that was - causing `make distcheck' to fail. - - * src/shred.c: Don't include gethrxtime.h.

Now, this module is reentrant on systems - that provide openat (Solaris), and on systems like Linux+procfs - where our openat emulation code is reentrant. This also fixes a - few low-probability leaks and eliminates some code that could, - in very unusual circumstances, cause rm() (via a callee) to exit. - * NEWS: Mention this. - - * configure.ac: Put copyright dates all on one line so the - emacs function that updates them works properly. - -2005-11-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> - - * configure.ac (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): Add. Needed for CVS Automake. - Problem reported by Eric Blake. - (AC_PROG_CC_STDC): Use this instead of AC_PROG_CC, so that - we get a standard-conforming compiler. This relies on the new - m4/c.m4 file.

Problem reported by Albert Chin. - Don't invoke a program more than once. - * src/groups.sh (version): New variable, containing author info, - for benefit of AUTHORS check. Use it when acting on --version option. - * AUTHORS: Remove duplicate lines. Remove bogus "chroot:" - in groups line. - - * src/system.h: Don't #define and #undef getopt around <stdlib.h>, - as this breaks the new regime that does "#define getopt rpl_getopt". - Problem reported by Albert Chin for Solaris 9 with Sun cc in: - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2004-11/msg00019.html - I suppose this may cause problems on ancient hosts with - incompatible getopt declarations, but we'll cross that bridge if - the problem gets reported to us by someone who can test the fix. - -2004-11-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * src/tac.c: quote(...) file names in diagnostics. - -2004-10-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> - - * NEWS: Document getdate changes. - -2004-10-29 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * src/tac.c (tac_file): Remove temporary prototype and move this - function `down' so that it precedes definition of tac_nonseekable. - - `tac /proc/modules' would print nothing - Reported by Harald Dunkel in http://bugs.debian.org/278604. - - * src/tac.c (copy_to_temp): Renamed from save_stdin, since - now it copies a general file descriptor, not just stdin. - (tac_nonseekable): Renamed/adapted from tac_stdin. - (tac_file): Get fd via `open' directly rather than via fopen/fileno, - since we never used the stream. Perform "-" to stdin mapping here - rather than in main.

All uses changed. - Don't check the destination ourself; rely on dest_is_dir. - This way we can avoid lstatting the destination in the - usual case, and in the worst case we lstat 1, not 3 times. - Don't bother to unlink unless link failed; this saves a syscall. - Remove unnecessary backup_succeeded flag; - it was identical to "dest_backup != NULL". - - * src/ln.c (main): Use int to count to argc, not unsigned int. - This handles negative operand counts. - * src/mv.c (main): Likewise. - - * src/mv.c (do_move): Don't call hash_init; expect the caller to - do it, for consistency with cp.c and ln.c. All callers changed. - (movefile): dest_is_dir parameter is now bool, not int. - (main): Standardize on "missing destination file operand after %s" - for the diagnostic, for consistency with cp.c. - - * tests/mv/diag: Don't assume "mv --target=nonexistentdir" - will complain about the arg count. - Adjust to new (briefer) diagnostics. - * tests/cp/fail-perm: Add a test to verify that we get the new - diagnostic when failing to copy through a symlink-to-inaccessible-dir. - -2004-06-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> - - Fix a bug: formerly, if d/x was a directory and x a file, "ln x - d/" incorrectly created a link d/x/x.

In - particular, a no-op chown is no longer reported as a change; this - reverts to previous behavior. Also, fix both commands so that -v - report failures even if the failure is not due to the chmod or - chown syscalls. - - * src/chmod.c (CH_NOT_APPLIED): New constant. - (describe_change): Handle it. - (process_file): Use it, if a symlink wasn't changed. - (mode_changed): Return bool, not int. Accept new argument - NEW_MODE; all callers changed. This lets us avoid statting the - file unless the new mode has unusual bits. - (process_file): Return -1 on error. With -v, report all errors - verbosely, not just some. - - * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Return -1 on error, not - 1 sometimes and -1 on others. Our caller ORs together our results, - and (-1 | 1) == 0 on ones-complement hosts. - With -v report all errors verbosely, not just some. - Fix bug when chopt->root_dev_ino && !chopt->affect_symlink_referent: - file_stats wasn't set properly in that case. - - * tests/chgrp/basic: Adjust to above changes. - -2004-05-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> - - * tests/chgrp/basic: Test that chgrp -h does not fail on - symlinks, even on hosts where that's not supported. - Test that if -R is specified without -H or L, -h is assumed. - Test that chown() is not optimized away. - -2004-05-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> - - Several fixes to chgrp and chown for compatibility with POSIX and BSD: - - Check for incompatible options.

When -R and -h - are both used, then -P must be in effect. - - -H, -L, and -P have no effect unless -R is also specified. - If -P and -R are both specified, -h is assumed. - - Do not optimize away the chown() system call when the file's owner - and group already have the desired value. This optimization was - incorrect, as it failed to updated the last-changed time and reset - special permission bits, as POSIX requires. - - Do not report an error if the owner or group of a - recursively-encountered symbolic link cannot be updated because - the file system does not support it. - - * NEWS: Document the above. - - * src/chgrp.c (main): Check for incompatible options. -R --dereference - requires either -H or -L, and -R -h requires -P. If -H, specify - FTS_PHYSICAL as well as FTS_COMFOLLOW; this is faster. Make this - file as much like chown.c as possible. - * src/chown.c (main): Likewise. - - * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Use ent->fts_statp only if - needed. Chown a directory only after chowning its children; this - avoids problems if the new directory ownership doesn't permit - access to the children. Dereference symlinks before doing - ROOT_DEV_INO_CHECK, not after, so that we catch symlinks to /. - Do not optimize away the chown() system call when the file's owner - and group already have the desired value. POSIX does not permit - this optimization. Rely on chown and lchown to do the right - thing with symlinks and/or -1 arguments, now that we have wrappers - to do this. Use ENOTSUPP not ENOSYS, and ignore all ENOTSUPP - errors, not just command-line errors. - (chown_files): Pass FTS_NOSTAT to xfts_open if we don't need file status. - - * src/system.h (ENOTSUP): Remove. - - * tests/chgrp/basic: Use chown --from to discover whether the - group changed, since chgrp now changes unconditionally. This - complicates the sed script a bit. Do not specify --dereference, - since it's the default (and we want to test this). Adjust output - to match the fact that chgrp no longer optimizes the case of - changing a file's group to the same value as before. - * tests/chgrp/posix-H: Do not attempt to combine -h and -H; these - options are incompatible, and their behavior is undefined with POSIX. - (changed, not_changed): Adjust to match the fact that -h is no longer - specified. Sort names. - * tests/chown/deref: Adjust error-diagnostic spelling to match new - behavior. - -2004-06-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> - - * src/uname.c (main): Fix typo introduced on 2003-05-10 that - prevented a diagnostic of any operands. - -2004-06-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * src/shred.c (direct_mode): Turn it on/off with directio, too. - -2004-06-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - Enable direct-mode I/O (bypassing the buffer cache), if possible. - Prompted by a suggestion from Kalle Olavi Niemitalo - in http://bugs.debian.org/207035. - * src/shred.c (direct_mode): New function. - (do_wipefd): Turn on direct-mode I/O. - (dopass): If a file's first write fails with EINVAL, - turn off direct-mode I/O and retry the write. - -2004-06-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> - - * src/tr.c (main): "tr -d a b" is now a fatal error even if - POSIXLY_CORRECT is set.

Remove unnecessary casts. - (squeeze_filter, main): Calls to fwrite improperly checked result - against zero, rather than against requested size. - (plain_read): New function. - (read_and_delete, read_and_xlate): - Remove unused filter arg, and don't worry about hit_eof. - Simplify by using plain_read. - (set_initialize): Args are bool and bool *, not int and SET_TYPE *. - (main): Always pass a non-null procedure to squeeze_filter. - Rewrite so that class_ok isn't needed. - -2004-05-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> - - * src/shred.c (dosync): Ignore EBADF errors, as IRIX 6.5 - fdatasync reports EBADF when syncing (unwritable) directories. - Problem reported by Albert Chin-A-Young in: - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2004-05/msg00165.html - -2004-05-29 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * tests/chown/deref: Fix typo: use ls -ldo, not ls -ldg. - Patch from Albert Chin. - - * src/ptx.c (text_buffer_maxend): Remove declaration of unused variable. - - * src/remove.c (push_dir): Merge declaration and adjacent assignment - into a single statement. - -2004-05-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * src/remove.c (AD_mark_helper): Eliminate an unnecessary comparison. - -2004-05-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - rm -r would get a failed assertion when run from an inaccessible - directory and with two or more command line arguments including an - absolute-named directory followed by a relative-named directory. - - * src/remove.h (struct rm_options) [require_restore_cwd]: New member. - * src/remove.c (struct cwd_state): Define. - (AD_pop_and_chdir): Redesign interface so that a restore_cwd failure - can be detected by the caller.

Solaris 8 "sort" - does conform to POSIX. Also fix the documentation to clarify - this and related issues. - - * doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Mention -k earlier, so - that the options are in alphabetical order.

Warn about using -k without -b, -g, -M, -n, or -t. - Add an example of how to sort IPv4 addresses and Apache Common - Log Format dates.

Do not allow signals to - happen between arbitrary output bytes, as the - restore-default-color sequence can bollix up multibyte chars or - color-change sequences in the ordinary output. Instead, process - signals only between printing a file name and changing the color - back to non_filename_text color. That way, if the signal handler - changes the color (to the default), 'ls' will change it back when - 'ls' continues (after being suspended). - - Also, do not bother with signal-handling unless stdout is a - controlling terminal; this lets stdio buffer better when "ls - --color" is piped or sent to a file. - - * src/ls.c (sigprocmask, sigset_t) [!defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]: New macros. - Do not include "full-write.h"; no longer needed. - (tcgetpgrp) [!

All callers changed to use - put_indicator. - (caught_signals, interrupt_signal, stop_signal_count): New vars. - (restore_default_color): Don't bother checking for put_indicator - failure. - (sighandler): Don't handle SIGTSTP; that's another handler now. - Simply set interrupt_signal to the signal, then exit. - (stophandler, process_signals): New functions. - (main): Don't output any color changes until _after_ the signal - handlers are set up. This fixes a race condition where 'ls' - could be interrupted while initializing colors, and leaving the - terminal in an undesirable state. - Don't mess with signal-handling if standard output is not a - controlling terminal. - When exiting, restore the default color, then restore the - default signal handling, then act on any signals that weren't - acted on yet. - Do not print //DIRED// etc. in colors; this avoids the need - to catch signals when printing them. - (print_name_with_quoting): Process signals just before switching - color back to non_filename_text. - -2004-04-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - Avoid segfault on systems for which SIZE_MAX != (size_t) -1. - * src/ls.c (quote_name): Use SIZE_MAX, not -1, in calls - of quotearg_buffer.

Here are the highlights: - - - csplit sometimes failed to remove files when interrupted. - - csplit didn't clean up if two signals arrived nearly simultaneously. - - install -s would infloop on System V if SIGCHLD was ignored. - - ls could incorrectly restore color if multiple signals - arrived nearly simultaneously. - - * src/csplit.c (sigprocmask, sigset_t) [!defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]: - Define. - (filename_space, prefix, suffix, digits, files_created, remove_files): - Now volatile. - (caught_signals): New var. - (cleanup): Block signals while deleting all files. - (cleanup_fatal, handle_line_error, regexp_error): - Mark with ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN. - (create_output_file, close_output_file, interrupt_handler): - Block signals while changing the number of output files, - to fix some race conditions. - (delete_all_files): Do nothing if remove_files is zero. - Clear files_created. - (main): Don't mess with signals until after argument processing - is done. - - * src/csplit.c (main): Rewrite signal-catching code to make it - similar to other coreutils programs. When processing signals, - block all signals that we catch, but do not block signals that we - don't catch. Avoid problems with unsigned int warnings. - * src/ls.c (main): Likewise. - * src/sort.c (main): Likewise. - - * src/csplit.c (interrupt_handler): - Use void, not (obsolete) RETSIGTYPE. - * src/shred.c (sigill_handler, isaac_seed_machdep): Likewise. - - * src/csplit.c (interrupt_handler) [defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]: - Use simpler "signal (sig, SIG_DFL)" rather than sigaction equivalent. - * src/ls.c (sighandler) [defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]: Likewise. - * src/sort.c (sighandler) [defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]: Likewise. - * src/nohup.c (main) [!defined _POSIX_SOURCE]: Likewise, except - for SIG_IGN. - * src/tee.c (main) [!defined _POSIX_SOURCE]: Likewise. - - * src/install.c: Include <signal.h>. - (main) [defined SIGCHLD]: Set SIGCHLD handler to the default, if -s is - given, since System V fork+wait does not work if SIGCHLD is ignored. - - * src/ls.c (sighandler) [!defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]: Reset signal - handler to self, not to SIG_IGN, since SIGTSTP can be received - more than once. - (main): Use SA_RESTART, as that is simpler than checking for EINTR - failures all over the place. - -2004-04-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * src/remove.c (is_empty_dir): Clarify comment. - - * man/help2man: Accept new option: --program-name=NAME, so that we - can override the one in --version output. This is needed solely - so that test.1 doesn't refer to `[' as the program name. - Reported by Benjamin Cutler as http://bugs.debian.org/205251. - * man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Use help2man's new --program-name option. - - * src/pwd.c: Don't include pathmax.h; system.h already does it. - - * src/cut.c (cut_fields): Free buffer upon getndelim2 failure. - -2004-04-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * src/shred.c (isaac_seed_start) [AVOID_USED_UNINITIALIZED_WARNINGS]: - Initialize a buffer to avoid warnings from tools like valgrind. - - * Makefile.maint (sc_trailing_blank): New rule. - (syntax-check-rules): Add it. - * .x-sc_trailing_blank: New file. - - Make pwd work even if the resulting name is so long that getcwd fails. - * src/pwd.c: (path_free, path_init, path_prepend): New functions. - (nth_parent, find_dir_entry, robust_getcwd): New functions. - (main): First try getcwd, then, upon failure, robust_getcwd. - -2004-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * src/who.c (print_user): Use xrealloc here, rather than - unchecked realloc.

The way it was used was not - portable, since some systems (OSF V5.1, Solaris 2.5.1) provide static - inline `stat' and `lstat' functions, thus making the tests of - `xstat == lstat' in copy.c always fail. - * src/copy.h (struct cp_options) [xstat]: Remove member. - (XSTAT): New macro. - * src/copy.c (copy_dir): Set `.dereference' member, not .xstat. - (copy_internal): Use `XSTAT (x, ...)' in place of `*(x->xstat) (...)'. - Use `x->dereference == DEREF_NEVER' in place of `x->xstat == lstat'. - (valid_options): Remove now-obsolete FIXME comments. - - * src/cp.c (re_protect): Use `XSTAT (x, ...)' in place of - `*(x->xstat) (...)'. - (do_copy): Declare/use local xstat rather than x->xstat. - (main): Remove code that set x.xstat. - * src/mv.c (cp_option_init): Don't initialize xstat member. - * src/install.c (cp_option_init): Likewise. - - * Makefile.cfg (gnu_ftp_host-alpha, etc.): Un-factor .gnu.org suffix, - so that emit_upload_commands can use these variables, too. - -2004-02-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * tests/rm/deep-1: Remove `du' stack space test. - Apparently, `ulimit -s N' isn't portable enough. - This test will be restored (with a guard against losing ulimit) - in its own file later. - - * tests/rm/deep-1 (deep): Remove progress-style diagnostics, - since this test doesn't take long enough to merit them. - Run du on $tmp (the containing dir), not $deep, the full path to leaf. - - * Makefile.maint (signatures): Remove definition. - Now, automake's gnupload handles this. - (%.sig: %): Remove now-unused rule. - (rel-files): Use automake's $(DIST_ARCHIVES), rather than - `$(distdir).tar.bz2 $(distdir).tar.gz'. - (emit-upload-commands): Adjust to use gnupload. - -2004-02-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * src/system.h (ST_TIME_CMP_NS, ST_TIME_CMP): Remove definitions. - (ATIME_CMP, CTIME_CMP, MTIME_CMP, TIMESPEC_NS): Likewise. - Now, those are all defined in timespec.h. - Include timespec.h. - - * src/date.c: Don't include timespec.h, now that system.h does it. - -2004-02-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> - - Don't dump core if localtime returns NULL (possible on - hosts with 64-bit time_t and 32-bit int). - * src/date.c: Include "inttostr.h". - (batch_convert, main): - If time conversion fails, exit with nonzero status. - (show_date): Return int to report conversion failure. - Print the time as an int if localtime fails. - * src/uptime.c: Print "??" if the current clock can't - be converted by localtime. This won't happen until the year - 2*31 + 1900, but we don't want to dump core even if the current - clock has the wrong value. - - * src/stat.c: Include "inttostr.h". - (human_time): Print the date/time as a number of seconds since the - epoch if it can't be converted by localtime. This is better than - just saying "invalid", and is consistent with what "ls" does. - Don't dump core if the year has more than 48 digits; this isn't - possible on any contemporary host, but we might as well do it right. - -2004-01-31 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> - - * src/stat.c (human_time): Accept time rather than - pointer-to-const-time parameter, for clarity. All callers changed. - -2004-02-02 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * src/stat.c (do_stat): Remove extra trailing newline from - default formats. Reported by Nelson H. F.

On almost all - machines 'double' works in every case where 'int' works, and - it works on other cases besides. - -2004-01-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * src/seq.c (usage): Mention that if INCREMENT is omitted, - it defaults to 1, even when FIRST is larger than LAST. - Reword so as not to exclude the possibility that INCREMENT be zero. - -2004-01-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * Version 5.1.2. - - * Makefile.maint (signatures): Comment out definition. - -2004-01-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> - - * Makefile.maint (header_regexp): Add exitfail. - - * man/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add help2man. - Reported by Nelson H. F. Beebe. - - * man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Prefix help2man invocation with `$(PERL) --' - so it works on systems with Perl installed somewhere other than in - /usr/bin. - - * src/paste.c (paste_parallel): Declare local, chr, to be of type - `int', not `char', since it must hold EOF.
