* src/tail.c (main) [HAVE_INOTIFY]: When stdin (i.e., "-", or no args,
but not /dev/stdin) is specified on the command line, don't use inotify.
Reported by Bill Brelsford in <http://bugs.debian.org/545422>.
* tests/tail-2/follow-stdin: New file. Test for this.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add the test.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
This bug was introduced in coreutils-7.5 via commit ae494d4b,
2009-06-02, "tail: use inotify if it is available".
|
|
* tests/tail-2/flush-initial: Wait for the file to be nonempty,
not for the process. Based on a suggestion from Pádraig Brady.
|
|
* tests/misc/ls-misc: Set umask to 022. A umask setting permitting
world-write access, e.g., umask o+w, would cause this test to fail.
Report by Mathias Brodala and analysis by Tom Fitzhenry in
<http://bugs.debian.org/544965>.
|
|
* src/tail.c (main): Flush any output from tail_file,
before calling tail_forever_inotify, which can block.
* tests/tail-2/flush-initial: New file. Test for the bug.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add tail-2/flush-initial.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
This bug was introduced in coreutils-7.5 via commit ae494d4b,

* lib/fdopendir-glibc.c: Remove unused file.
2009-09-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
|
|
* tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Avoid test failure when run from a
directory whose name (or ancestor directory name) starts with ".".
|
|
* src/tail.c (usage): I read "approximately S seconds"
as "approximately 5 seconds" for approximately 5 seconds.
|
|
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Remove tabs erroneously added
in commit 3346c0af.
|
|
* src/tail.c (main): Add an undocumented ---disable-inotify option
to allow disabling inotify.
* tests/tail-2/pid: Run test in both normal and "disable_inotify" modes.
* tests/tail-2/tail-n0f: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/wait: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/append-only: Likewise.
|
|
|
|
* src/stty.c (mode_info) [TAB0, TAB1, TAB2]: Guard each
entry with #ifdef. Required for GNU/kFreeBSD.
Reported by Petr Salinger in http://bugs.debian.org/520368.
|
|
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest.
|
|
* src/ln.c (ENABLE_HARD_LINK_TO_SYMLINK_WARNING): Delete.
(do_link): Update comments per POSIX; add FIXME for -L, -P.
|
|
* gnulib: Update to latest gnulib.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Adjust comment in light of POSIX
2008, and deal with macro now being tri-state.
|
|
* tests/tail-2/wait: Increase the file name recheck frequency to
fix a failure on systems without inotify and a file timestamp precision
of 1 second (like GNU/kFreeBSD).
|
|
* tests/tail-2/wait: Silently skip a portion of the test
when running as root, rather than failing the whole test.
This regression was introduced with commit 84b5844d, 2009-09-03,
"tests: simplify and fix a race in 2 tail --follow tests".
|
|
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): The code to handle configure-time
enabling or disabling of libcap support was broken. It would treat any
libcap configure option as --disable-libcap because it doesn't check
$enableval at all. This change makes sure we do the sane thing:
--disable-libcap -> disable and don't run any tests
--enable-libcap -> run tests and fail if not found
default -> run tests and warn if not found
|
|
* src/df.c (main): If open or fstat fails when we're trying to ensure
that all arg-partitions are automounted, fall back on using stat.
Inspired by the report and patch from Olivier Fourdan in
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/520630.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* tests/df/unreadable: New test for the above.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add df/unreadable.
The bug was introduced in coreutils-7.3 via commit dbd17157,
2009-04-28, "df: use open(2), not stat, to trigger automounting".
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi: Move the documentation for install --compare (-C)
from the section on fmt to that for install.
Reported by Florian Schlichting.
|
|
* tests/tail-2/pid: Use the timeout command to determine process
longevity, rather than querying /proc/$pid/status.
The latter was racy in any case when inotify is used, as then
tail wakes up periodically even for unchanging files therefore
causing the check for "S (sleeping)" state to fail intermittently.
* tests/tail-2/wait: Likewise.
|
|
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't return from the function after an
unsuccessful and required preservation of extended attributes.
This resulted in leaking the copy buffer and file descriptors.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention the fix.
The bug was introduced in coreutils-7.1 via commit 0889381c, 2009-01-23,
"cp/mv: add xattr support".
|
|
* src/du.c (du_files): Don't fail silently upon fts_close failure.
* src/chcon.c (process_files): Likewise.
* src/chmod.c (process_files): Likewise.
* src/chown-core.c (chown_files): Likewise.
|
|
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest.
|
|
This is probably never visible, but who knows...
* src/chcon.c (process_files): Don't ignore fts_close failure.
* src/chmod.c (process_files): Likewise.
* src/chown-core.c (chown_files): Likewise.
* src/du.c (du_files): Likewise.
|
|
* src/du.c (main): Don't set "skip_file" unnecessarily.
|
|
* src/chown-core.c: Include "ignore-value.h".
(change_file_owner): Don't set "ent" only to ignore it.
* src/chcon.c (process_file): Likewise.
* src/chmod.c: Include "ignore-value.h".
(process_file): Don't set "ent" only to ignore it.
After diagnosing root-dev/ino failure, return false immediately:
Now that we don't set "ent" we must be sure not to use it uninitialized,
and there's no point in issuing --verbose-related output in this case.
|
|
* src/shred.c (genpattern): Value stored to "n" is never used.
|
|
* src/dd.c (skip): Remove set-but-never-used variable, soffset.
|
|
* src/tail.c (tail_bytes): Don't compute "diff" twice.
|
|
* gl/lib/mbsalign.c (mbsalign): Remove assignment, the result of which
is never used.
|
|
* src/timeout.c (main): While keeping argc and argv in
sync may be marginally useful, it is redundant to update argc,
so just remove that to suppress the clang warning.
|
|
* src/timeout.c (main): Handle all possible cases of unexpected
failures from wait(). This was prompted by the clang tool reporting
the possible non-initialization of the status variable.

On most unix- and linux-based kernels, ls -i DIR_CONTAINING_MOUNT_POINT
would print the wrong inode number for any entry that is a mount point.
It would do that by relying on readdir's dirent.d_ino values, while
most readdir implementations return the inode number of the underlying,
inaccessible directory. Thus, it is not consistent with what you'd
get when applying stat to the same entry. This bug led to surprising
results like "ls -i" and "ls -i --color" printing different numbers (ls
must usually "stat" a file to colorize its name). This change makes it
so that on offending systems, ls must stat non-command-line-arguments
for which otherwise it would be able to use "for free" dirent.d_ino
values. Regardless of this change, ls is already required to stat every
command-line argument. Note: versions of GNU ls prior to coreutils-6.0
did not perform the invalid optimization, and hence always printed
correct inode numbers. Thus, for the sake of correctness, ls -i is
forgoing the readdir optimization, for any kernel (including linux!)
with POSIX-nonconforming readdir. Note that currently, only Cygwin has
been agile enough to conform.
* src/ls.c (RELIABLE_D_INO): Define.
(print_dir): Use it.
For plenty of discussion, see this long thread:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/14020
This bug was introduced by the 2006-02-26 commit, 33eb3efe:
"In ls, avoid calling stat for --inode (-i), when possible."
* tests/ls/readdir-mountpoint-inode: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Don't suppress failure of this test,
now that ls -i is fixed. Though note that it doesn't test well,
since it compares only the always-stat'd command-line arguments.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
