* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Parenthesize ternary expression used
as an argument to awk's printf. Otherwise, gawk 3.0.1 and the
one from debian stable's original-awk would get a syntax error.

* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: When this test was run as root on an ext3
file system, (ext3 had known problems), it would trickily create and
mount a loopback ext4 file system and use that instead. However, due
to a bug in 2.6.39-rc1..rc3, this loopback test (when run in another
loopback FS) exposed a bug with 1k-blocksize ext4 whereby non-NUL
data would be read from a hole. For details, see this:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.ext4/24495

|
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Fail right away with details, when cmp fails.
When extent maps are found to differ, display them and merely warn.
|

to avoid the expense of extent_copy's unconditional use of
FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Do not attempt extent_copy on a file
that appears to have no holes.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Document this. At first I labeled this
as a bug fix, but that would be inaccurate, considering there is no
documentation of FIEMAP semantics, nor even consensus among kernel
FS developers. Here's hoping SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA support will soon
make it into the linux kernel.
|
|
* src/copy.c (HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLOCKS): Define to 0 if undefined,
so we can use it in the return expression, here:
(is_probably_sparse): New function, factored out of...
(copy_reg): ...here. Use the new function.
|
|
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Do not treat "unwritten extents" specially.
Otherwise, with a release-candidate 2.6.39-rc3 kernel, XFS or ext4,
when using gold as your linker, and if you forget to run "make check",
you could end up installing files full of zeros instead of the expected
binaries. For a lot of discussion, see
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.xfs.general/37895
* tests/cp/fiemap-empty: Disable this test.
|
|
* src/extent-scan.c (extent_need_sync): Always return true,
to make the sole caller always use FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC.
This will doubtless have an undesirable performance impact,
but we'll mitigate that shortly, by using extent_copy only on
files with holes.

|
|
* tests/filefrag-extent-compare: Don't check the length of the
last extent, as this was seen to vary on XFS, where it leaves
trailing blocks allocated for performance reasons.
* tests/cp/fiemap-empty: Though not seen as an issue in practise,
try to avoid possible issues with the allocator in file systems,
by requesting to allocate a power of 2.

* NEWS: Adjust to match commit 1c3654cb, 2011-04-02,
"copy: require fiemap sync also for 2.6.38 kernels"
|
|
* extent-scan.h (extent_scan_free): Init the pointer to NULL,
and reset the count to 0, so that we can realloc the buffer.
* src/extent-scan.c (extent_scan_init): Likewise.
(extent_scan_read): Loop over multiple fiemap scans, so we handle
mergeable extents that span across fiemap scan boundaries. Once
we have enough unique extents, return so as to minimize memory use.
|
|
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Free the extents array when
sparse_copy() fails.
|

Running the new fiemap-empty test uses 600MB of disk space via
fallocate, and in so doing caused failure in unrelated tests that
were running in parallel on a small file system. Rather than
simply running fallocate (which allocates the space, inducing
disk full when it fails), skip the test if there is less than
800MB of free space, as computed via stat and awk.
* tests/init.cfg (require_file_system_bytes_free_): New function.
* tests/cp/fiemap-empty: Use it.
|
|
* tests/misc/help-version: Sleep only ~30s, not 10m.
The latter was a problem when somehow that sleep process would
hang around and thereby prevent (for up to 10m) a normal unmount
of the temporary partition in which I'd run the tests.
|
|
* tests/cp/preserve-gid: Simply chmod a+rx instead.
That is safer, in case the nameless UID actually has an account,
and might take advantage of root running a program in a directory
under its control
|
|
* tests/cp/preserve-gid: Remove useless use of "env".
|
|
* tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart: Skip rather than failing this test
when run as root and the binaries are not accessible by "nobody".
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (sc_tight_scope): Adjust rule to use an eval-based
trap-setting for-loop rather than 4x hard-coded 128+N constants.
Also catch SIGQUIT (3). Tweak comments.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (Standards conformance): Give value of
_POSIX2_VERSION matching the _POSIX_C_SOURCE of POSIX 2008.
|
|
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_strncmp): New rule, mostly from libvirt.
* src/system.h (STREQ_LEN, STRPREFIX, STRNCMP_LIT): Define.
* src/df.c (get_dev, get_point): Convert.
* src/extent-scan.c (extent_need_sync): Likewise.
* src/ls.c (is_colored, decode_switches): Likewise.
(parse_ls_color, (print_color_indicator): Likewise.
* src/md5sum.c (split_3): Likewise.
* src/split.c (main, emit_ancillary_info): Likewise.
* src/tr.c (look_up_char_class): Likewise.
* src/uname.c (main): Likewise.
* src/who.c (scan_entries): Likewise.
|
|
* src/extent-scan.c (extent_need_sync): Require sync also for 2.6.38.
Without this, part of the cp/fiemap-empty test would fail both on
F15-to-be (2.6.38.1-6.fc15.x86_64) and rawhide. For details, see

When running the erroneous command, cp -rl A D D, and depending on the
structure of directories A and D and the file system type (because that
changes order of dir. entry traversal), cp would sometimes fail to
detect that D was being copied into D, and would create D/D/D/D/D/...
until it hit PATH_MAX or exhausted some resource.
I noticed this via the occasional failure of the cp/into-self test
when run using a ZFS file system. It is occasional because the bug
is dependent on the order in which directory entries are traversed,
and that is apparently indeterminate with ZFS.
Technically, with the current recursive implementation, there is no
risk of an infinite loop, due to stack limitations, but with an
eventual fts-based implementation, it might have iterated until
disk space or inodes are exhausted.
* src/copy.c (copy_dir): Avoid copy-into-self interminable loop on
systems with large PATH_MAX. On other systems, diagnose the copy-into-
self error consistently. Handle the parameter,
first_dir_created_per_command_line_arg, correctly when there are two
or more sub-directories.
|
|
* tests/cp/fiemap-empty: Correct typo in comment. Add "FIXME".
|
|
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Treat an allocated but empty extent
much like a hole. I.E. don't read data we know is going to be NUL.
Also we convert the empty extent to a hole only when SPARSE_ALWAYS
so that the source and dest have the same allocation. This will
be improved soon, when we use fallocate() to do the allocation.
* tests/cp/fiemap-empty: A new test for efficiency and correctness
of copying empty extents.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
|
|
* src/extent-scan.c (extent_scan_read): Add a more stringent check
for OFF_T overflow, to ensure subsequent code is immune.
Detect overlapping extents and adjust, so as files always copied.
Detection using a single scan with fallback to a standard copy
was thought too expensive in memory or time.
* NEWS: Mention the fix

This bug was introduced in commit ca9e212c, 2009-09-24,
"cp, mv: use linkat to guarantee semantics", which
inadvertently disabled the creation of hardlinks to symlinks.
However rather than implementing the intention of that commit
and relying on gnulib linkat emulation, we'll revert to the
previous emulation as that maintains ownership and timestamps.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use our existing hardlink to
symlink emulation when link() might dereference the symlink.
Also ensure that we copy the timestamps of the original symlink
when we use the emulation.
* tests/cp/link-symlink: Add a test to ensure timestamps copied.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

* tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate: Wait 50% longer for grep to succeed.
Without this change, this test would fail consistently when using
"make -j25 check" with F15 in a virtio- and spinning-rust-backed
virtual machine.
|

* src/extent-scan.h (struct extent_scan): Add the fm_flags member to
pass to the fiemap scan.
* src/extent-scan.c (extent_need_sync): A new function used to
detect Linux kernels before 2.6.38.
(extent_scan_init): Add FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC when needed.
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Adjust comment.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

* tests/init.cfg (require_selinux_): Skip the test also when
/proc/filesystems does not list selinuxfs.

* cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_file_system): Exempt
tests/init.cfg, with its use of /proc/filesystems.

Move "const", too.
* src/find-mount-point.c: Move "const" to conform.

the table, and apply alignment honoring the max width of each column.
(get_header): Renamed from print_header, and adjusted accordingly.
(get_dev): Renamed from show_dev. Also we no longer wrap longer
device names over two lines, which can be an unexpected issue for

Make GNU coreutils' test recognize "==" as a synonym for "=".
This is already the case in GNU coreutils' expr, bash, ksh,
busybox ash, FreeBSD-current /bin/sh and /bin/test, and
OpenBSD's /bin/sh.
Before, env test a '==' a would fail with this diagnostic:
"test: ==: binary operator expected". Now, it succeeds.
* src/test.c: Accept "==" as a synonym for "=".
* doc/coreutils.texi (String tests): Document it.

* tests/cp/preserve-gid: Ensure that every process under test uses
the cp binary we've just built. Before this fix, with a restrictive
umask or build-dir permissions, the UID-changing tests would end up
using whatever cp happened to be available through $PATH
