* tests/tail-2/follow-name: Exclude the inotify warning
from the comparison.
Reported by Bruno Haible.
|

This change affects only systems that have neither *at function support
nor the /proc/self/fd support required to emulate those *at functions.
* src/remove.c (write_protected_non_symlink): Call faccessat
unconditionally. Thus we no longer need euidaccess_stat, which was
the sole function used here to operate on a full relative file name.
Remove full_name parameter and update caller.
* lib/euidaccess-stat.h: Remove file.
* lib/euidaccess-stat.c: Likewise.
* m4/euidaccess-stat.m4: Likewise.
* po/POTFILES.in: Remove lib/euidaccess-stat.c.
* m4/prereq.m4 (gl_PREREQ): Don't require gl_EUIDACCESS_STAT.
Prompted by a report from Bruno Haible that the rm/deep-2
test was failing on HP-UX 11.31.
See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.general/1748

* tests/df/total-verify: Use require_perl_, so that this test is
skipped when perl is not available.
* tests/rm/deep-2: Likewise, and fix wording in a comment.
Reported by Bruno Haible.
|
|
* tests/tail-2/F-vs-missing: This test would fail about 80% of the
time on linux/powerpc when run in an NFS-mounted directory.

* tests/ls/slink-acl: Use setfacl's "-m user::r" option rather than
less-portable "-m m::r". The latter did not work with Solaris 10's
version of setfacl. Reported by Bruno Haible in
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.general/1726/focus=1737

* tests/init.cfg (require_strace_): Detect a version of strace
that fails on linux/sparc64 for 64-bit executables. Report and
most of the suggested fix from Bruno Haible:

|
* bootstrap (download_po_files): Fallback to wget when downloading
the .po files via rsync failed. This is necessary to bootstrap behind
a strict firewall.
|
|
* NEWS: Mention when the sort -g infloop bug was introduced and
alphabetize entries. Clarify a sentence in the pwd-improvement entry.
|
|
* tests/ls/slink-acl: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* tests/init.cfg (require_setfacl_): New function.
* gnulib: Update to latest, for file-has-acl changes.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/28538. This
":>k; setfacl -m m::r k; ln -s k s; ls -Log s" should print e.g.,
-rw-r-----+ 1 0 Oct 5 19:22 s
With the ls from coreutils-8.13, it would print this (with "." or
nothing in place of the "+"):
-rw-r-----. 1 0 Oct 5 19:22 s
|
|
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (gl_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Remove use of AM_C_PROTOTYPES,
now that automake rejects it.
|
|
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS, gl_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS):
Remove unnecessary backslashes and add quotes around multi-line
argument lists.
|
|
Interix provides faster replacements for getgr{gid,nam,ent} where
group member information is not fetched from domain controllers.
This makes 'id' usable on domain controlled interix boxes.
* m4/jm-macros.m4: Check for _nomembers functions.
* src/system.h: Redefine function to _nomembers when available.
|
|
Add a dummy, non-functional, always-successful replacement setgroups
function, to keep the original code untouched and simple.
* src/chroot.c (setgroups) [! HAVE_SETGROUPS]: Define.
|
|
* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Add no-dist-gzip.
* NEWS (Build-related): Mention that we're dropping .tar.gz.

This is related to commit b7f2b51c, 2010-01-01,
"ls: fix color of broken symlinks colored as target"
which didn't handle the --dereference case.
The simplest way to reproduce the resultant
erroneous "argetm" is as follows:
$ ln -s /no-such dangle
$ env LS_COLORS=ln=target ls --dereference --color
ls: cannot access dangle: No such file or directory
argetmdangle
This is also an issue with the `tree` utility,
reported here: http://bugs.debian.org/586765
* src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): Move the handling
of 'ln=target' in $LS_COLORS (color_symlink_as_referent == true)
to a higher scope, to handle all cases where type == C_LINK.
* tests/misc/ls-misc: Add a test case for the specific issue,
and 2 further test cases to verify other code paths in this area.
Reported by Jason Glassey.

At first this looked like a buffer overrun, since there was no test
to ensure that the buffer length was 6. However, since the LS_COLORS
string is NUL-terminated and since settings within it are separated by
":" there was neither the risk of reading beyond end of buffer nor risk
of a false-positive match.
* src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): Use color_symlink_as_referent
rather than manually comparing against "target" again.
* src/system.h (STRNCMP_LIT): Correct description in comment.

These commands would fail to terminate:
yes -- -nan | head -156903 | sort -g > /dev/null
echo nan > F; sort -m -g F F
That can happen with any strtold implementation that includes
uninitialized data in its return value. The problem arises in the
mergefps function when bubble-sorting the two or more lines, each
from one of the input streams being merged: compare(a,b) returns 64,
yet compare(b,a) also returns a positive value. With a broken
comparison function like that, the bubble sort never terminates.
Why do the long-double bit strings corresponding to two identical
"nan" strings not compare equal? Because some parts of the result
are uninitialized and thus depend on the state of the stack.
For more details, see http://bugs.gnu.org/9612.
* src/sort.c (nan_compare): New function.
(general_numcompare): Use it rather than bare memcmp.
Reported by Aaron Denney in http://bugs.debian.org/642557.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* tests/misc/sort-NaN-infloop: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
|
|
|
|
Pulling in the latest gnulib triggered a new false-positive
syntax-check failure.
* cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_prohibit_always-defined_macros):
Exempt remove.c; its definitions of DT_UNKNOWN, DT_DIR and DT_LNK are
harmless.
|
|
* tests/init.cfg: (very_expensive_): Mention toplevel make target,
check-very-expensive.
(expensive_): Likewise for check-expensive.
|
|
* Makefile.am: add shortcuts to run (very) expensive tests.
Use "make check-expensive" to run tests with RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes,
use "make check-very-expensive" to run tests with both
RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes and RUN_VERY_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes.
Non-expensive tests are included in all cases.

On some systems like glibc on GNU/kFreeBSD, a thread is
implicitly created when timer_settime() is used.
This breaks our scheme to ignore signals we've
sent ourselves.
* src/timeout.c (send_sig): Change the scheme used to
ignore signals we've sent ourselves, to a more robust
but perhaps limited scheme of ignoring all signals of
a certain type after we've sent that signal to the job.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
|
|
* tests/init.sh (compare): If "diff -c" is supported but "diff -u" is
not, use "diff -c". Useful on AIX 6.1, HP-UX 11.31, OSF/1 5.1,
Solaris 8.

This fixes a bug in pwd and all getcwd-using applications (for some
uses: df, readlink, stat) when run from a directory whose absolute name
contains more than PATH_MAX / 3 components. For more details, see
http://git.sv.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/commit/?id=f6fe351fc534ae1
* gnulib: Update.
* NEWS (Improvements): Mention it.
|
|
src/md5sum.c: Clarify that we are talking about input mode.
doc/coreutils.texi: Ditto.
|
|
* tests/cp/cp-parents: If somehow a chmod set-up command failed,
subsequent tests would fail in a harder-to-diagnose manner.
|
|
* gl/lib/randread.c: Add a FIXME comment suggesting how to improve
performance by using the RDRAND hardware instruction.
|
|
* src/md5sum.c (split_3): Detect and handle BSD reversed
format checksums.
* tests/misc/md5sum-bsd: Add a new test.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference new test.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement
Suggested by Rimas Kudelis.
|
|
* src/join.c (usage): Mention that -a adds to the overall output,
rather than replacing the default output.
* THANKS: Update.
Reported by Tomas Volka.
|
|
* configure.ac (gl_GCC_VERSION_IFELSE): Define new macro.
(WERROR_CFLAGS): With --enable-gcc-warnings, use it to
add -Wsuggest-attribute=pure only with gcc 4.7 or newer.
|
|
* tests/d_type-check: Fix typo in comment.
|
|
* NEWS: Add header line for next release.
* .prev-version: Record previous version.
* cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Auto-update.
|
|
* NEWS: Record release date.
|
|
|
|
* src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): Adjust definition so that it is enabled
also on AIX 7.x systems that provide statvfs64 and no statvfs.
[USE_STATVFS && ! STAT_STATVFS && STAT_STATVFS64] (STATFS): Define
to statvfs64 in that precise case.
* m4/stat-prog.m4 (cu_PREREQ_STAT_PROG): Adjust the condition
here to match the new one in stat.c, to keep them in sync.
Reported by Bruno Haible. For details, see
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.general/1668
|
|
* tests/init.cfg (require_mkfs_PATH_): New function to test whether mkfs
is in PATH, otherwise adding /sbin to PATH. Needed for distributions
(OpenSuSE, Solaris) in which sudo does not include /sbin in PATH.
* tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: Use require_mkfs_PATH_.
* tests/cp/cp-mv-enotsup-xattr: Likewise.
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Likewise.
* tests/mkdir/writable-under-readonly: Likewise.
* tests/rm/read-only: Likewise.
|
|
* doc/Makefile.am (sc-lower-case-var): Skip this test when $(PERL)
is not usable. Reported by Bruno Haible.
|
|
* NEWS (Improvements): Mention the cp-vs-NFSv4-ACL improvement we
have inherited via gnulib. For details, see
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/28100
and the following messages in that thread.
* gnulib: Update to latest, for numerous ACL-related improvements.
|
|
* tests/init.sh: Relax check for diff -u support.
Rather than checking for GNU diff via --version, simply check
for support for -u itself. Useful at least on OpenBSD 4.9.
|
|
* tests/require-perl: Remove file.
* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove it from this list.
* tests/init.cfg (require_perl_): New function.
* tests/misc/pwd-long: Use the new function, not the file.
* tests/ls/nameless-uid: Likewise.
* tests/misc/sum-sysv: Likewise.
|
|
* tests/misc/cut: Repeat each test using a multibyte locale,
if the configure-time test found such a locale.
Adjust the tests so that they also accept a slightly
different diagnostic that is specific to the MB-patched cut.
|
|
* HACKING (Add tests): Mention the variables and default values.
* README-release (Pre-release testing): Mention that setting
the SHELL variable may be required.
Suggested by Bruno Haible.
|
|
* src/timeout.c (settimeout): Fix the previous commit
to test errno rather than the return value.
|
|
* tests/split/l-chunk: Don't use the `test "$var"`
idiom to test that var is set to something as
that's not supported by all shells.
The new style matches the usage is the rest of
the test in any case.
Reported by Bruno Haible on AIX 6.1 and 7.1
|
|
Without this change, we'd get use-of-uninit value warnings
and harder-to-diagnose failure down the road.
* tests/misc/pwd-long (normalize_to_cwd_relative): Diagnose stat
failure. This failed on AIX 6.1 and 7.1. Reported by Bruno Haible.
|
|
* tests/misc/printf-surprise: Also accept a strerror-style string
after the usual 'printf: write error:' diagnostic prefix.
Otherwise, this test would fail on HP-UX 11.
Reported by Bruno Haible.
