* src/split.c (lines_chunk_split): Fix logic bug that led to
unwarranted failure of "split -n l/2 /dev/zero" on NetBSD 5.1.
The same would happen when splitting a growing file, where
open/lseek-end gives one size, but by the time we read, there
is more data available.
(bytes_chunk_extract): Likewise.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention this.
* tests/split/l-chunk: The latter case was not exercised.
Add code to do that.
Bug introduced with the chunk-selecting feature in v8.7-25-gbe10739.

(df): Reword entry, from Pádraig Brady.
|

On systems with recent kernel/tools, a symlink from /etc/mtab to
/proc/mounts, and a by-UUID mount (i.e., soon, nearly everyone),
you will see something like the following when running "df -hT":
(this has been truncated to fit in a width-limited ChangeLog file)
Filesystem Type Siz...
rootfs rootfs 11G
udev devtmpfs 3.8G
tmpfs tmpfs 774M
/dev/disk/by-uuid/828fc648-9f30-43d8-a0b1-f7096a2edb66 ext4 11G
tmpfs tmpfs 1.6G
/dev/sda2 ext3 494M
/dev/sda5 ext4 12G
/dev/sda6 ext4 9.9G
Contrast that with what we're used to seeing (modulo the
two entries mounted on "/", which is a separate problem):
Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs rootfs 11G 1.9G 8.0G 19% /
udev devtmpfs 3.8G 0 3.8G 0% /dev
tmpfs tmpfs 774M 376K 774M 1% /run
/dev/sda3 ext4 11G 1.9G 8.0G 19% /
tmpfs tmpfs 1.6G 8.0K 1.6G 1% /run/shm
/dev/sda2 ext3 494M 78M 392M 17% /boot
/dev/sda5 ext4 12G 7.6G 3.7G 68% /usr
/dev/sda6 ext4 9.9G 6.6G 2.8G 71% /var
When that long /dev/disk/by-uuid/... name is merely a symlink
to a much shorter (and often more useful) device name like
"/dev/sda3", and when it's part of a listing of all file systems,
I would much prefer to see only the latter. Similarly, when using
an encrypted root file system, you would see a name like
/dev/mapper/luks-828fc648-9f30-43d8-a0b1-f7196a2edb66 pointing
to say, /dev/dm-0, I prefer the shorter name.
I.e., if I explicitly run
"df -hT /dev/disk/by-uuid/828fc648-9f30-43d8-a0b1-f7096a2edb66",
then, it's fine -- and expected -- to print to the long name.
It was explicitly given. However, with no non-option argument,
df should print the shorter name. Note that performing this
translation at a lower level (via a change to gnulib's mountlist.c)
would make it impossible to distinguish those two cases.
* src/df.c: Include "canonicalize.h".
(get_dev): Add a parameter, telling when we're in process-all-
mount-points mode; update all callers. When true, resolve
UUID-suffixed symlinks.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention it.

* tests/misc/realpath: Quote lhs of test ... = ..., so that
when $PWD contains a space (like it does via "make distcheck"),
the test does not fail
|
|
This program is compatible with other realpath(1)
implementations, and also incorporates relpath like support,
through the --relative options. The relpath support
was suggested by Peng Yu, who also provided an initial
implemenation of that functionality.
* AUTHORS: Add my name.
* NEWS: Mention the new command.
* README: Likewise.
* doc/coreutils.texi (realpath invocation): Add realpath info.
* man/Makefile.am (realpath.1): Add dependency.
* man/realpath.x: New template.
* man/.gitignore: Ignore generated man page.
* po/POTFILES.in: Add src/realpath.c.
* src/.gitignore: Exclude realpath.
* src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_PROGRAMS): Add realpath.
* src/realpath.c: New file.
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Add realpath to the list of prefixes.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add misc/realpath.
* tests/misc/realpath: New file.
|
|
This is required for the new realpath command.
|
|
Without this change, gcc's -Werror=format would complain that
the '%lx' format requires 'long unsigned int', not 'int'.
* src/tail.c (fremote): Use a temporary variable.
|
|
* tests/rm/many-dir-entries-vs-OOM: This test also exercises chmod.
|
|
Run "make update-copyright".
|
|
This file is special. We don't want to use a range,
but merely the current year number.
* tests/sample-test: s/2011/2012/
|
|
* tests/check.mk (.built-programs): Depend on src/Makefile.am,
so that when we add a program, this file is updated, and the new
program is tested via misc/help-version. Spotted by Pádraig Brady.
|
|
* src/test.c: Add pragma to suppress gcc-4.6.2's warning that
"advance" might be candidate for attribute 'pure'.
|
|
* src/tail.c (start_lines): Do not form potentially-invalid address.
Use safe_read's return value as a pointer offset only after
ensuring that it is not SAFE_READ_ERROR (size_t)(-1).
Spotted by coverity.
Also, move declaration of "p" to be closer to first use.
|
|
* tests/envvar-check (vars): Add these to the list of envvars we
ignore: _STDBUF_E, _STDBUF_I, _STDBUF_O, used by libstdbuf.
|
|
* src/chgrp.c (usage): Group associated options together,
to aid users. Also minimize the differences between
individual messages across these four commands, to
aid translators.
* src/chmod.c: Likewise.
* src/chown.c: Likewise.
* src/chcon.c (usage): Likewise. Document the
--dereference option.

* src/stat.c (human_fstype) [S_MAGIC_PIPEFS]: New case.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention this.
|
|
* src/stat.c (usage): Mention "file system type", not just "type"
for %t and %T. Do not capitalize the first letter of each description.
|

Before, we would use inotify in that case, which would work as long
as updates were taking place locally, but not at all when remote.
Move hard-coded list of known remote FS types into a more
maintainable table in stat.c, alongside the list of FS
names and magic numbers. Generate a new is_local_fs_type function.
* src/Makefile.am (fs-is-local.h): New rule, generated file.
* src/extract-magic: Revamp to parse local/remote keyword after
each magic number in src/stat.c's case statements.
Accept new --local option.
* src/.gitignore: Ignore the generated fs-is-local.h.
* src/tail.c [HAVE_INOTIFY]: Include fs-is-local.h.
(fremote) [HAVE_INOTIFY]: Use the new function in place of
the switch stmt with hard-coded list of FS types.
Emit a warning when processing a file on a file system of unknown type.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention it.
Suggested by Sven Breuner.
|
|
* README-release: Run the Makefile rule that checks for new file
system magic numbers.
|
|
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add a case: fhgfs, 0x19830326.
* src/tail.c (fremote): Add S_MAGIC_FHGFS.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Update the entry for GPFS to mention FhGFS, too.
Reported by Sven Breuner.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (factor invocation): Adjust example to use $(...)
consistently, not a mix of `...` and $(...). Separate the computation
of the product and the actual factorization, so the timing of the
latter doesn't include the cost of the former.
|
|
* bootstrap.conf (bootstrap_epilogue): Remove now-unnecessary,
snippet that edited gnulib-tests/gnulib.mk. This snippet was
rendered unnecessary by commit v8.14-73-g5bf2c0e.
|
|
* bootstrap: Pull in the combination of gnulib's "bootstrap: detect
tools required by gnulib-tool" patch and the related fix.
|
|
This fixes Bug#10293, which I guess was introduced in commit
95c948b06a dated 2003-10-02.
* NEWS: Document fix.
* src/du.c (process_file): Don't count files in different file
systems if -x is given.
* tests/du/one-file-system: Test for this bug.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (touch invocation): Explain file timestamps
better. Problem reported by Nelson H.F. Beebe (Bug#7999).
|
|
* src/ls.c (decode_switches): Replace our use of XARGMATCH
with open-coded version so that we can give a better diagnostic.
* tests/ls/time-style-diag: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
Reported by Dan Jacobson in http://bugs.gnu.org/10253
with suggestions from Eric Blake and Paul Eggert.
|
|
* src/shred.c: Remove obsolete TODO comment. The first two and the
last item were done, adding --recursive (-r) is neither necessary
nor appropriate, and I don't want to add --interactive. I don't
see a need for the others. Prompted by comments from Amr Ali.

Starting with commit adc30a83, when using --color, ls inhibited
interrupts to avoid corrupting the state of an output terminal.
However, for very large directories, that inhibition rendered ls
uninterruptible for too long, including a potentially long period
even before any output is generated.
* src/ls.c: Two phases of processing are time-consuming enough that
they can provoke this: the readdir loop and the printing loop. The
printing was supposed to be covered by a call to process_signals in
(print_name_with_quoting): ... but that call was mistakenly guarded
by a condition that might be false for many or even all files being
processed. Call process_signals unconditionally.
(print_dir): Also call process_signals in the readdir loop.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

* src/ln.c (usage): Use clearer wording to describe the -L, -n,
and -T options (Bug#9896).
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (fs_normalize_perl_subst, fs-magic, fs-kernel-magic):
Undo previous patch; it missed a \#.
(fs_normalize_perl_subst): Use \043 rather than \#.
\043 is portable to all ASCIIish platforms, whereas \# is portable
only to platforms that are compatible with GNU make (and are
incompatible with POSIX make). Porting this to EBCDIC is left as
an exercise for the reader....
|
|
* src/sort.c (struct thread_args) [is_lo_child]: Remove member.
(sortlines): Remove unused parameter, "is_lo_child". Update callers.
* src/stat.c (out_epoch_sec): Mark unused parameter.
(do_statfs, do_stat): Remove unused parameter, "terse". Update callers.
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (fs_normalize_perl_subst): Don't make unportable
assumption about \# in the right hand side of a macro definition.
This works with GNU make, but not with POSIX make.
Problem reported by Basavaraj B (Bug#10220).
(fs-magic, fs-kernel-magic): Do the #-substitution here instead.
|
|
* src/test.c (unary_operator): gcc reported that initializations
in two case statements were skipped. Enclose in braces.
* src/od.c (decode_one_format): Likewise.

* src/csplit.c (usage): Remove declaration.
* src/ls.c (usage): Likewise.
* src/pr.c (usage): Likewise.

This avoids spurious diagnostics when running our "bootstrap" script.
* gl/modules/heap: Append colon after "License".
* gl/modules/randint: Likewise.
* gl/modules/randperm: Likewise.
* gl/modules/randread: Likewise.

I didn't check how long these were documented as GNU extensions,
nor when they were added by POSIX; but since they are all part
of POSIX 2008, we no longer need call them out as extensions.
The next version of POSIX will standardize %s:
http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=169
but as that is not out yet, I didn't change %s.
* doc/coreutils.texi (Time conversion specifiers): %R and %z are
now POSIX.
(Date conversion specifiers): Likewise for %F, %g, %G.

Commit 5eeaca94 added /sbin to the PATH for tests using mkfs. For other
tests, e.g. tests/cp-fiemap-perf using filefrag, we need /usr/sbin also.
Add both directories generally for the tests, "since many of us always
augment our PATH with all of the sbin paths all of the time anyway" (Bob
in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2011-11/msg00107.html).
The previous commit is hereby obsolete.
* tests/init.cfg (sanitize_path_): Add /sbin and /usr/sbin to PATH
unless already included. Needed for tests using admin tools like mkfs
and filefrag on systems where the user's environment does not have
these directories in the PATH.
* tests/init.cfg (require_mkfs_PATH_): Remove obsolete function.
* tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: Remove require_mkfs_PATH_ call.
* tests/cp/cp-mv-enotsup-xattr: Likewise.
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Likewise.
* tests/mkdir/writable-under-readonly: Likewise.
* tests/rm/read-only: Likewise.

We no longer need to exclude this warning.
* configure.ac (WARN_CFLAGS): Gnulib dropped
-Wunsuffixed-float-constants, as non-portable.
|
|
Commit 5b3e538 proved useful enough to migrate to gnulib after
enhancing it to be more generic, which in turn pointed out that
commit a2c811db missed an offender.
* gnulib: Update to latest.
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_reversed_compare_failure): Delete, now that
gnulib provides it.
* tests/ls/dangle: Fix last offender.
|
|
|
|
but not in gnulib-tests/.
* configure.ac (GNULIB_WARN_CFLAGS): Do not exclude
-Wsuggest-attribute=pure|const, thus enabling these two warning
options in lib/, since gnulib now toes the line.
Continue to disable them in gnulib-tests/, since some programs
there trigger these suggestions and are not worth fixing.

Last week I made a global change, commit a2c811db, `tests: use
"compare exp out", not "compare out exp"', but forgot to add a
corresponding syntax check rule. Without that, it is far too
easy to add a new test or to merge in an old one that would
be non-conforming. Obviously this is only a heuristic, since
it relies on the expected-output file to have a name that starts
with "exp".
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_reversed_compare_failure): Prohibit use of
compare with reversed arguments.
