* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove now-obsolete "strtol".
Remove use of $obsolete_gnulib_modules: unused since commit edc69f91.
|
|
* Makefile.am (changelog_etc): Don't list update-copyright here.
It is automatically included via gnulib-tool-generated lib/gnulib.mk.
|
|
* THANKS.in: Remove a now-duplicate name.
|
|
* 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.

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.

|
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Multiple uses of quote (s) in an
argument list is erroneous. Use quote_n, instead.
|
|
* 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 "+".
|
|
* gnulib: Update to latest.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add xgetgroups.
|
|
Without this, most perl-based tests would fail in "make distcheck".
* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add CuSkip.pm
|
|
* 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.
|
|
* 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:

|
* src/Makefile.am (sc_tight_scope): Remove useless quotes,
change 1>&2 to >&2, and combine a few short lines.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
src/Makefile.am (fs-magic, fs-kernel-magic): Change some leading
8-space sequences to TABs.
|
|
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add magic numbers for V9FS and ECRYPTFS.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
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.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (tail invocation): Mention it.
* src/tail.c (usage): Likewise.
(tail_forever_inotify): Clarify comment.
|
|
* 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/cp/sparse-fiemap: Remove spurious BEGIN {...} block.
|

|
|
* 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.

* 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.
