* NEWS: Adjust wording in a few entries.
|
|
* src/od.c: Redorder the information output by --help
to ease interpretation and so that appropriate sections
are generated by help2man.
* doc/coreutils.texi (od invocation): Fix an incorrect
reference to @var{n}, which should be @var{bytes}.
* man/od.x: Add an "Examples" section, and move the
default od format to there, and add a commonly required
format to generate hexdumps.

The current x86_64 asm code does not work for x32 (__ILP32__) ABIs,
so disable it. Note simply deleting the q suffix is not enough.
* src/longlong.h: Restrict x86_64 assembly to _LP64 targets,
which is consistent with other checks in longlong.h and
avoids this code on x32.
* NEWS: Mention the build fix.
|
|
* init.cfg (require_valgrind_): Check the `true` program,
which will check more valgrind failure cases as now
detailed in the function comments.
|
|
* src/dd.c (dd_copy): To print an off_t portably we need
to use PRIdMAX and cast to intmax_t, otherwise there
could be a mismatch between say a 32 bit off_t
and uintmax_t. This was flagged by -Wformat on
a 64 bit host when compiling with CFLAGS=-m32.
|
|
This regression was introduced in commit v8.19-132-g3786fb6.
* src/seq.c (seq_fast): Don't use puts() to output the first number,
and instead insert it into the buffer as for other numbers.
Also output the terminator unconditionally.
* tests/misc/seq.pl: Add some basic tests for the -s option.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
* THANKS.in: Reported by Philipp Gortan.
|
|
The -z option has been introduced in commit v8.15-60-ga3eb71a,
i.e. in coreutils-8.16. Time to add some tests for it.
* tests/misc/basename.pl: Add tests exercising the -z option.
In the foreach loop to append a newline to the end of each
expected 'OUT' string, skip the -z tests.
|
|
* HACKING: In the paragraph about creating coverage statistics,
use the correct -b (--base-directory) parameter.
|
|
* configure.ac: Wrap the recently introduced long line.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Explain that iflag=fullblock
ensures that count= will count blocks rather than reads, and
reference that in both the count= and iflag=fullblock descriptions.
Suggested by John Reiser.
|
|
* tests/misc/timeout-group.sh: The kernel might possibly delay
signal propagation to timeout.cmd long enough, that it exits
normally without running the signal handler (as sleep will
be in the same process group and so get the signal too).
So avoid this by explicitly checking that the signal handler
is called, which should always happen under normal circumstances.
Reported by Stefano Lattarini on linux-2.6.30-2-686 and bash-4.2.36.
|
|
* configure.ac: Only enable warnings automatically when
on GCC >= 4.6 (and when building from a git checkout)
as that was the first GCC version to support fine-grained
control of warnings, allowing them to be adjusted around
certain code sections. gnulib relies on this for certain
warnings, so avoid auto enabling this option lest we trigger
build failures on now over two year old compilers.
Reported by Zartaj Majeed with GCC 4.5.3 on cygwin.
|
|
* doc/local.mk (doc/constants.texi): Ensure the doc directory
is present which is needed when doing a non source dir build,
when the doc/constants.texi target is built before other doc targets.
* src/local.mk: Add $(EXEEXT) to the make-prime-list calls.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi: s/\.\.\./@dots{}/ except in code and examples.

This allows efficient processing of multiple files,
while also increasing compatibility with BSD's readlink(1).
We also add the -z, --zero option to delimit output items
with the NUL character which disambiguates output in the
presence of '\n' characters.
* src/readlink.c (usage): Add the --zero description,
and also adjust the description of --no-newline accordingly.
(main): Handle the -z option and iterate over multiple arguments.
Also as in commit v8.15-24-g9d46b25 we use fputs() and putchar()
rather than printf() for performance reasons.
* doc/coreutils.texi (readlink invocation): Document the
new --zero option, adjust the --no-newline description, and
tweak the general info to indicate multiple files are supported.
* tests/readlink/multi.sh: A new test for the new functionality.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* man/readlink.x: Adjust the summary and also reference realpath.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* THANKS.in: Suggested by Aaron Davies.
|
|
* .gitignore: ignore GCC coverage data files.
|
|
* HACKING: In the paragraph about switching branches, mention
"git stash" as a way to continue while preserving uncommitted
changes.

Teach tail -f that it must use polling on ceph file systems, and
let stat -f --format=%T report the file system type name, "ceph".
Website: http://ceph.com/
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add a case: ceph, 0x00C36400, remote.
* NEWS (Improvements): Mention it.
* THANKS.in: Update.

* tests/df/skip-rootfs.sh: s/supressed/suppressed/
|
|
* tests/misc/cut-huge-to-eol-range.sh: New test, showing that
the change in v8.20-51-g7d03466 is a bug fix after all.
* tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add it.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

cp --no-preserve=mode exited 1 unconditionally. Furthermore,
the tests which would have detected this error - namely
link-preserve.sh and reserve-mode.sh - failed to test
cp's exit code.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): In the case x->explicit_no_preserve_mode,
do only set return_val to false iff the previous set_acl ()
failed.
* tests/cp/link-preserve.sh: Check cp's exit code.
* tests/cp/link-symlink.sh: Likewise.
* tests/cp/preserve-mode.sh: Likewise.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
Bug introduced in commit v8.19-145-g24ebca6.

* src/df.c (struct devlist): Add new struct for storing already-
examined device numbers.
(devlist_head): Add new store of the above type.
(show_rootfs): Add new global boolean to not skip rootfs.
(dev_examined): Add new function to check if the device has
already been traversed.
(get_dev): Filter out rootfs unless "-t rootfs" or the -a
option is specified. Filter out duplicate entries by calling
the above new dev_examined unless the -a option is specified.
(main): Set the show_rootfs variable appropriately when the -t
option is specified for rootfs. Free device list (guarded by
IF_LINT).
* tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Add test to exercise the skipping
of duplicate entries.
* tests/df/skip-rootfs.sh: Add test to exercise the skipping
of the rootfs pseudo file system.
* tests/local.mk: Add the above new tests.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the changes.
* doc/coreutils.texi (df invocation): Document df's behavior about
skipping rootfs and duplicate entries.

* src/cut.c (set_fields): Don't allocate memory for
`printable_field' if there are no finite ranges.
This is achieved by keeping max_range_endpoint as 0 when
there are no finite ranges. max_range_endpoint is then
used throughout the code to guard against allocation of,
and access to the bit array.
The extra allocation was introduced via commit v8.10-3-g2e636af.
|
|
* tests/misc/cut.pl: This particular bug existed up to v8.10.
|
|
The regular expression failed to match for file systems that
do not provide inode statistics, e.g. VFAT or CIFS (depending
on the underlying peer file system).
* tests/df/total-verify.sh: Fix the regular expression to match
a dash in the ipcent field again.
Reported by Assaf Gordon in http://bugs.gnu.org/13099.
Bug introduced in commit v8.20-18-gdae8d22.

|
* HACKING: Adjust as per the recent changes introduced
when switching to non recursive make.
|
|
* tests/misc/cut.pl: Since we now output the more
complete error message irrespective of running
in a multi-byte locale or not, adjust the test accordingly.
|
|
* src/cut.c (main): Treat a NUL delimiter (-d '') consistently
with non NUL delimiters, and disallow such a delimiter option,
unless a field is also specified.
(set_fields): Provide a more accurate error message when
a given list is invalid.
* tests/misc/cut.pl: Add a test case.
|
|
* README: Adjust as per the recent changes introduced
when switching to non recursive make.
|

The syntax-check sc_THANKS_in_duplicates complained about
that excess entry.
* THANKS.in (Colin Watson): Remove entry, now that it will be
automatically included in the generated THANKS file.
|
|
* src/factor.c (mp_factor_init): Init the pointers with NULL,
which xrealloc (or realloc) handles fine.
|
|
Both Debian and Ubuntu builds of coreutils 8.20 hang while running the
test suite on powerpc, which is reproducible using 'factor 122'.
This turns out to be somewhat related to http://bugs.gnu.org/12754,
but not quite the same. uintmax_t is 64 bits, but the cntlzw
instruction takes 32-bit operands, and the cntlzd option is only
available on 64-bit hardware.
* src/longlong.h: Add an _LP64 check around the PPC64 code,
so that this falls back to the C implementations.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

When printing output delimiters, and when a to-EOL range subsumes
at least one other range, cut would mistakenly print delimiters for
the subsumed range. This bug was probably introduced via commit
v5.2.1-639-g847e066.
* src/cut.c (set_fields): Ignore any range that is subsumed by a
to-EOL range. Also, move two declarations down.
* tests/misc/cut.pl: Add tests to exercise this.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
Reported by Marcel Böhme in http://bugs.gnu.org/12966
|
|
* src/cut.c (set_fields): When two right-open-ended ranges are
specified, don't blindly let the latter one take precedence over
the former. Instead, use the union of the ranges.
* tests/misc/cut.pl: Add tests to exercise this.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

Thanks to Berhard Voelker for catching log and NEWS typos.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Enhance documentation
of the --preserve=xattr option regarding the preservation
of ACLs, SELinux contexts and capabilities: the user may
notice this only when not specifying --preserve=mode
and --preserve=context, too, i.e., otherwise, these attributes
are preserved anyway.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (tee invocation): Reference
the bash manual rather than bashref, as the latter
is more likely to work on newer systems.
|
|
* tests/misc/timeout.sh: Take advantage of recent support for
sub-second timeouts to decrease runtime from about 6s to 2s.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (nice invocation): Ensure there is no
ambiguity in the summary in relation to nice being able
to adjust the niceness of an existing process.
Reference the renice command.
* man/nice.x: Reference renice (1)
|
|
* tests/rm/d-2.sh: EEXIST is a valid error on some systems.
Reported by Michael Felt on AIX 6.1
|
|
* tests/df/df-output.sh: sed --in-place is not generally available.
Also add a couple of simplifications from Bernhard Voelker.
Removing all spaces, rather than just leading spaces, suffices.
Searching for ' --output' in unadjusted df --help, suffices.
|
|
* src/seq.c (scan_arg): Calculate the width more accurately
for numbers specified using scientific notation.
* tests/misc/seq.pl: Add tests for cases that were mishandled.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
* THANKS.in: Reported by Marcel Böhme.
Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/12959

As the inodes information is usually not so much of interest,
and some file systems including btrfs do not even provide it,
reading of the full df --output is easier when the block
statistic fields come just left of the last field, the mount
point.
* src/df.c (all_args_string): Move the inodes fields before
the block fields.
(usage): Likewise.
* tests/df/df-output.sh: Likewise.
* doc/coreutils.texi (df invocation): Likewise. Additionally,
explicitly mention the default order of the --output option.
|
|
* NEWS: Document this.
|
|
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use DST_MODE_BITS, not SRC_MODE.
See Bernhard R. Link in <http://bugs.gnu.org/12947> and in

The above option has been deprecated since coreutils-7.5
by commit v7.4-129-g718b279.
* src/nl.c (PAGE_INCREMENT_OPTION_DEPRECATED): Remove enum.
(longopts): Remove "page-increment" entry.
(main): Remove PAGE_INCREMENT_OPTION_DEPRECATED case.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the change.
Reported by Marcel Böhme in <http://bugs.gnu.org/12940>.
|
|
* TODO (renice): The renice program is part of util-linux for
years now. Remove entry.
(dd): The option status=none has been implemented in commit
v8.19-143-g7331ab5. Remove entry.

The command "echo 12345 | cut -b 0-" prints an empty line while
it should fail with "fields and positions are numbered from 1".
* src/cut.c (set_fields): Add a diagnostic for the invalid open
range which starts with Zero, i.e., the range 0-.
* tests/misc/cut.pl: Add tests to ensure the range 0- fails for
fields (-f) and for positions (-b, -c).
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
Reported by Marcel Böhme in <http://bugs.gnu.org/12903>.
|
|
* src/factor.c [HAVE_ATTRIBUTE_MODE]: Fix typo in #if test:
s/HAVE_LONG_LONG/HAVE_LONG_LONG_INT/. Otherwise, factor.c would
elicit assembler errors on x32: it was incorrectly defining DItype
to long instead of long long. Patch and report in
http://bugs.debian.org/693337; Mike Stone notified upstream.
|
|
* cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_preprocessor_indentation): Fix
typo that disabled the sc_preprocessor_indentation syntax-check rule
by exempting all files. s/__ll/_ll/ The typo was introduced in
commit v8.19-157-g759ebcb.
