2011-05-03maint: remove use of gnulib's obsolete strtol moduleJim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove now-obsolete "strtol". Remove use of $obsolete_gnulib_modules: unused since commit edc69f91.
2011-05-03maint: remove unnecessary listing of update-copyright in Makefile.amJim Meyering
* Makefile.am (changelog_etc): Don't list update-copyright here. It is automatically included via gnulib-tool-generated lib/gnulib.mk.
2011-05-03doc: remove a name from THANKS.in that is derived from git logJim Meyering
* THANKS.in: Remove a now-duplicate name.
2011-05-03copy: fix my typoJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Fix my typo (mis-applied patch). The patch by Jeff Liu was fine, but I mis-applied it and introduced a compilation error in commit efa479c1. 2011-05-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
2011-05-03build: avoid bootstrap failure when $GZIP is setJim Meyering
Running "GZIP=-9 ./bootstrap" would fail right away, because the tool-version-checking code would treat the upper-cased program name as an environment variable name and if that has a value use the result as the application name. That works fine for automake, autoconf, etc. but not for gzip. * bootstrap (check_versions): Do not treat $GZIP as a program name. If defined at all, it is supposed to list gzip options. Reported by Alan Curry in http://debbugs.gnu.org/8609
2011-05-03copy: correct misuse of quote in diagnosticJeff Liu
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Multiple uses of quote (s) in an argument list is erroneous. Use quote_n, instead.
2011-04-30maint: adjust split.c formatting to conformJim Meyering
* src/split.c (usage): Correct indentation. (ofile_open): Likewise. (create): "char *name", not "char* name". (struct of_info) [ofile]: Similar. (parse_chunk): Add spaces around "+".
2011-04-29build: update to latest gnulibEric Blake
* gnulib: Update to latest. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add xgetgroups.
2011-04-29tests: distribute new file, CuSkip.pmJim Meyering
Without this, most perl-based tests would fail in "make distcheck". * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add CuSkip.pm
2011-04-28tests: remove useless test: misc/pwd-unreadable-parentJim Meyering
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Remove misc/pwd-unreadable-parent. This test was misleading and useless (was always skipped). Inspired by a report from Bruno Haible: http://debbugs.gnu.org/8570 * tests/misc/pwd-unreadable-parent: Remove file.
2011-04-28tests: write skip explanation from perl scripts also to outer stderrJim Meyering
* tests/CuSkip.pm (skip): New file/module/function, to help the perl test scripts "skip" a test consistently, emitting a diagnostic both into the log file and into the outermost stderr stream that is more likely to be seen by a human. * tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Add -MCuSkip. * tests/misc/date-next-dow: Use CuSkip::skip in place of warn+exit-77. * tests/misc/tty-eof: Likewise. * tests/misc/uniq: Likewise. * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Likewise. * tests/misc/md5sum-newline: Likewise. Also, s/program_name/ME/. * tests/misc/ls-misc (setuid_setup, main): Likewise. * tests/misc/pwd-long: Likewise, and add -I"$abs_srcdir" -MCuSkip to the $PERL invocation command. Inspired by a request from Bruno Haible regarding misc/tty-eof: http://debbugs.gnu.org/8570

* NEWS: Add header line for next release. * .prev-version: Record previous version. * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Auto-update.
2011-04-26version 8.12Jim Meyering
* NEWS: Record release date.
2011-04-26maint: tweak sc_tight_scope ruleJim Meyering
* src/Makefile.am (sc_tight_scope): Remove useless quotes, change 1>&2 to >&2, and combine a few short lines.
2011-04-26dd: work around compilation failure on AIX 5.1 and 5.2Jim Meyering
* src/dd.c (O_NOCACHE): Undefine. This symbol is defined via AIX's <fcntl.h>, yet used as an enum name in dd.c. Reported by Gary V. Vaughan in http://debbugs.gnu.org/8555 * NEWS (Portability): Mention this.
2011-04-26maint: move two small functions, so we can remove a fwd declJim Meyering
* src/dd.c (cleanup, quit): Move the definition of quit to follow the definition of process_signals, so we can remove the declaration of the latter.
2011-04-25maint: change some leading 8-space sequences to TABs in a Makefile.amJim Meyering
src/Makefile.am (fs-magic, fs-kernel-magic): Change some leading 8-space sequences to TABs.
2011-04-25stat: recognize V9FS and ECRYPTFS file systemsJim Meyering
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add magic numbers for V9FS and ECRYPTFS.
2011-04-25tail --follow=name no longer implies --retryJim Meyering
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Just as without inotify, tail --follow=name now terminates when the last tailed-by-name file is unlinked or moved aside. This bug was introduced on 2009-06-15 via commit ae494d4b, "tail: use inotify if it is available". Reported by Tim Underwood in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/22286 * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention this. * tests/tail-2/follow-name: Test for this. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
2011-04-25copy: include both src and dest names in clone failure diagnosticJeff Liu
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Upon btrfs clone failure, print not just the destination file name, but also the source file name. That may be useful upon failure of a cross-device clone attempt.
2011-04-25tests: tail-2/pipe-f2: avoid false-positive failureJim Meyering
Otherwise, this would fail (albeit rarely) on a "make -j24 check" run. * tests/tail-2/pipe-f2: Increase timeout from 1 second to 10, to avoid false positive failure.
2011-04-25maint: explicitly list full-read and full-write module namesJim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Include full-read and full-write explicitly. Before, we'd get them via safe-read, but with newer gnulib, that is no longer enough: link failure due to undefined references to full_write.
2011-04-25doc: tail/inotify does use --sleep-interval=S, with --pid=PJim Meyering
* doc/coreutils.texi (tail invocation): Mention it. * src/tail.c (usage): Likewise. (tail_forever_inotify): Clarify comment.
2011-04-22tests: sparse-fiemap: adjust syntax to accommodate older awkAlan Curry
* 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. Reported by Dennis Clarke. Copyright note: tiny change
2011-04-21tests: sparse-fiemap: with root/ext3, do not create an ext4 FSJim Meyering
* 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
2011-04-21tests: sparse-fiemap: report more detail upon failure; ignore an FPJim Meyering
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Fail right away with details, when cmp fails. When extent maps are found to differ, display them and merely warn.
2011-04-20copy: use FIEMAP (extent_copy) only for apparently-sparse files,Jim Meyering
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.
2011-04-20copy: factor out a tiny sparse-testing functionJim Meyering
* 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.
2011-04-20copy: do not treat unwritten extents specially: avoid XFS/ext4 data lossJim Meyering
* 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.
2011-04-20copy: always use FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC, for nowJim Meyering
* 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.
2011-04-20tests: remove spurious syntax from a perl snippetJim Meyering
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Remove spurious BEGIN {...} block.
2011-04-17dircolors: add .ear, .war, .sar, for Java jar-like archivesOndřej Vašík
* src/dircolors.hin: Add .ear, .war, .sar, for Java jar-like archives Suggested by Ville Skyttä in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/616497.

2011-04-13maint: mention dd's new partial read warning in NEWSPádraig Brady
* NEWS: Mention the new feature, from commits e1788d9e and 194c1e89
2011-04-13tests: fix a false positive fiemap test on some file systemsPádraig Brady
* 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.
2011-04-12maint: correct kernel version in test commentPádraig Brady
2011-04-12maint: remove unnecessary inclusion of <stdio.h>Jim Meyering
* src/extent-scan.c: Don't include <stdio.h>. It was not used.
2011-04-11build: update gnulib submodule to latestJim Meyering
2011-04-11cfg.mk: remove useless semicolon and backslashJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (sc_NEWS_two_empty_lines): Remove semicolon and backslash.
2011-04-11doc: tweak NEWSJim Meyering
* NEWS: Slightly obfuscate a line to avoid a false-positive doubled-word ("is-is") match. Fix a grammar error in news for 8.2. * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Resync.
2011-04-11maint: install: remove support for --preserve_context ("_", not "-")Jim Meyering
* src/install.c: Its use has elicited a warning for two years. Use --preserve-context instead. * NEWS (changes in behavior): Mention this.
2011-04-11maint: reorder install.c to eliminate declarations of static functionsJim Meyering
* src/install.c: Remove static function declarations.
2011-04-11maint: rename variables for clarity...Jim Meyering
and to avoid a false-positive "TO to" in new doubled word check. * src/install.c (change_timestamps): Rename parameters for readability. Make the comment match the code.
2011-04-11maint: remove doubled words in comments, e.g., s/to to/to/Jim Meyering
* tests/ls/color-norm: s/to to/to/ * gl/lib/mbsalign.h (mbs_align_t): s/or or/or/ * src/extent-scan.c (extent_scan_read): s/the the/the/ * src/libstdbuf.c: s/the the/the/ * tests/misc/stdbuf: s/on on/on/ * ChangeLog-2005: s/for\n\tfor /for\n\t/
2011-04-11maint: misc typo fixesPádraig Brady
* src/fiemap.h: s/can not/cannot/ * NEWS: s/in/is/ * doc/coreutils.texi: Remove spurious "and". s/effect/affect/ Use matched ``...'' quotes.
2011-04-07maint: correct kernel version in NEWSPádraig Brady
* NEWS: Adjust to match commit 1c3654cb, 2011-04-02, "copy: require fiemap sync also for 2.6.38 kernels"
2011-04-06copy: handle mergeable extents across fiemap scansPádraig Brady
* 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.
2011-04-06copy: fix an unlikely memory leak when a fiemap copy failsPádraig Brady
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Free the extents array when sparse_copy() fails.
2011-04-04tests: avoid spurious parallel failure due to temporary disk fullJim Meyering
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.
