* doc/coreutils.texi: (tail invocation): Add missing -s,
along with the existing --sleep-interval description.
(csplit invocation): s/--suffix/--suffix-format/.
(head invocation): Use same variable (COUNT) for -n and --head-count.
(seq invocation): Add opindex items for all options.
(ptx invocation): Likewise.
Fix typo s/--flac-truncation/--flag-truncation/.
(touch invocation): State explicitly that -d takes a parameter,
which also indicates that an '=' is not to be used
for the short option syntax.
(ls invocation): Likewise for the -w option.

To tag changes that are user visible
and affect all (or many) commands.

|
* doc/coreutils.texi (du invocation): Remove 'like' from
mentions of ISO-8601 as the components are individually conformant.
(ls invocation): Likewise, except for --time-style=iso for recent
files, where the MM-DD component is not a valid ISO-8601 timestamp.
|
|
* src/date.c (main): Use %:z rather than %z with --iso-8601
as the standard states to consistently use extended format.
Note either format can be parsed by date.
* tests/misc/date.pl: Adjust accordingly.
* doc/coreutils.texi (du invocation): Clarify that "iso"
time styles are only similar to ISO-8601.
(ls invocation): Likewise.
(date invocation): Adjust the comment stating
that only --rfc-3339 output can be parsed by date(1).
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

* src/factor.c: Move LIKELY() definition to...
* src/system.h: ...here.
(is_nul): Reimplement with a version that doesn't
require a sentinel after the buffer, and which calls
down to (the system optimized) memcmp.
Performance analyzed at http://rusty.ozlabs.org/?p=560
* src/dd.c (alloc_obuf): Simplify the is_nul() call by
not needing to write the sentinel.
* src/copy.c (sparse_copy): Likewise.
(copy_reg): Simplify the buffer allocation by avoiding
consideration of the sentinel in the buffer size calculation.

These strings are often file names or other user specified
parameters, which can give confusing errors in
the presence of unexpected characters for example.
* cfg.mk (sc_error_quotes): A new syntax check rule.
* src/*.c: Wrap error() string arguments with quote().
* tests/: Adjust accordingly.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
|
|
This is especially significant when using --check
with files generated on a windows system, where the \r
characters produce corrupted and confusing error messages.
This also ensures status messages are output on a single line.
* src/md5sum.c: Use quote() for printed file names.
* tests/misc/md5sum.pl: Adjust accordingly.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

* src/ls.c (main): Account for the first column not including
a separator when calculating max_idx.
* tests/ls/w-option.sh: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
|
|
* src/ls.c (print_with_separator): Renamed from print_with_commas,
and parameterized to accept the separator to print.
Also fix an edge case where '\n' not printed when
the POS variable overflows SIZE_MAX.
(print_current_files): Degenerate -x and -C to using the
cheaper print_with_separator() in the -w0 case.
* doc/coreutils.texi (ls invocation): Document the new feature.
* tests/ls/w-option.sh: A new test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.

* src/ls.c (know_term_type): Corresponding to commit v8.24-48-gc249a5a,
use fnmatch to inspect the dircolors database. Noticed due to
failing tests/ls/color-{dtype-dir,term}.sh tests.
|
|
* tests/misc/csplit-heap.sh: A little more memory is required
for the full run case. Noticed with --enable-single-binary.
|

The gnulib provided sc_tight_scope target was ineffective,
as it was checking against an invalid blank regular expression,
and thus ignoring any extern function issues. This is now
fixed up in gnulib, and so we need to fix our scoping issues
before the next gnulib update.
* cfg.mk: Setup and document the tight_scope config variables
appropriately.
* src/selinux.h: Since declared in *_SOURCES, use the two line
form for the extern function declarations.
* src/set-fields.h: Add the extern declarations, and since declared
in noinst_HEADERS use the single line form.
|
|
* tests/factor/run.sh: If this template is found through
`grep -El "print_ver_.* factor"` for example, then just skip it.

It was a little confusing as to whether the SQUFOF algorithm was
enabled, and in fact there were no options available to enable it.
Therefore clarify the 3 configurable behaviors for the code to
3 defines at the top of the program, and only include the SQUFOF
code if enabled at compile time.
$ size src/factor-before
text data bss
93997 1412 2504
$ size src/factor-after
text data bss
87885 1404 2504
* src/factor.c: Only include the SQUFOF factor code
when enabled via the USE_SQUFOF define.
* doc/coreutils.texi (factor invocation): Update note about
factor limits, as we can factor 128 bit numbers without GMP.
|
|
* man/sort.x: Cross reference with shuf(1).
* src/sort.c (usage): Mention shuf(1) with -R option.
Suggested in http://bugs.debian.org/641166
|
|
* tests/local.mk (all_tests): Remove the tests 'tests/id/setgid.sh' and
'tests/mkdir/smack-root.sh' because they are mentioned in the
'all_root_tests' list; these tests are skipped anyway during a non-root
run because flagged with 'require_root_'.

sha512sum can be faster than sha256sum.
E.g., ‘dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024k count=1024 | time sha256sum’
reports 8.16 user CPU seconds on my host, whereas sha512sum
consumes 5.45 seconds (Fedora x86-64 on an AMD Phenom II X4 910e).
Although sha512sum is still considerably slower on x86, a good
chunk of uses are on 64-bit hosts and anyway there’s little point
to scaring people away from sha512sum nowadays.
* doc/coreutils.texi (sha2 utilities): Remove obsolete comment.
|
|
* src/uniq.c (main): Make the type of "nfiles" unsigned,
to avoid a brand new warning from a gcc I built from today's
sources (gcc version 6.0.0 20151015 (experimental) (GCC)):
src/uniq.c:523:14: error: assuming signed overflow does not occur \
when simplifying conditional to constant [-Werror=strict-overflow]
if (nfiles == 2)

|
|
* src/dircolors.c (dc_parse_stream): Support globbing of
TERM entries, to allow entries like "TERM *256color*" for example.
* src/dircolors.hin: Reduce the internal list with globbing.
* tests/misc/dircolors.pl: New test cases.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
|
|
* tests/rm/r-root.sh: Skip the test if there are gdb warnings
that will impact further stderr checks. For example some
buggy gdb versions may report "Got object file from memory
but can't read symbols: File truncated". Also fix an incorrect
stderr check from the previous change.
Reported by Bernhard Voelker.
|
|
* tests/rm/r-root.sh: Use gdb rather than timeout(1) as the
last resort protection against unlinkat() calls. The timeout
of 2s was susceptible to false positives under load, and
gdb is stronger protection in any case. We remove the
"expensive" tag on this test also since it should be robust.
Reported by Jim Meyering.
|
|
* tests/tail-2/follow-stdin.sh: Use the standard tail
testing framework to avoid the race seen under very high load,
and also test the non inotify case.
Reported by Jim Meyering

To reproduce:
setfacl -dm group::rx .
setfacl -dm other::rx .
make check
* init.cfg (require_no_default_acl_): A new function to skip
when default ACLs are detected, or if the getfacl utility is
not available then skip if any non LSM ACLs detected.
* tests/cp/existing-perm-race.sh: Call require_no_default_acl_.
* tests/mkdir/parents.sh: Likewise.
* tests/mkdir/perm.sh: Likewise.
|
|
* src/tail.c (fremote): No longer prompt the user to email
with the unrecognized file system constant, since we have
process in place to sync periodically with the latest Linux
constants, and the fall back polling mode is still fully functional.
|
|
* tests/cp/cp-a-selinux.sh: Ensure we skip the portion of the test
depending on restorecon to be effective. I.E. also skip when restorecon
warns, as it doesn't exit with error status when matchpathcon fails to
find a match for a file. This is the case in /tmp on Fedora for
example, in which case the new destination that cp creates will have the
default security context of the process, rather than the explicit
context we set on the source file.
Details at: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/1247641

|
* tests/misc/sort-compress-hang.sh: Use --foreground with the
timeout(1) command (noting the caveats), to run the sort command
in the foreground program group, and thus be responsive to Ctrl-C.
This very_expensive_ test takes over a minute on a i3-2310M,
with RAM backed /tmp.
|
|
* tests/dd/no-allocate.sh: Account for timeout(1) when
determining the required mem, as timeout has additional shared libs.
This avoids the need for the hardcoded 4M addition to the limit.
* tests/misc/head-c.sh: Increase the base limit, to account for
the fact that head(1) will allocate some additional mem in this case.
* tests/misc/cut-huge-range.sh: Remove mention of specific limits.
* tests/misc/printf-surprise.sh: Likewise.

* src/csplit.c (usage): -m is not accepted, only --suppress-matched.
* tests/misc/csplit-suppress-matched.pl: Spelling fix.

* src/tee.c (tee_files): Last arg is now char ** instead of char
const **, as that is a bit simpler. All callers changed. Modify
files[-1], not files[nfiles], as that is a bit faster and simpler.
Latter problem pointed out by Rainer Deyke in:
http://bugs.gnu.org/21611

|
|
This pacifies GCC 5 in a better way, without disabling diagnostics.
* src/df.c (main): Tell compiler that optind is positive.
* src/shred.c (known): New function.
(dopass): Go back to off_t for file sizes.
Avoid integer overflow if we run off the end of the file.
Tell compiler that a write cannot write more bytes than requested.
|
|
Avoid the intermittent loss of "... has become inaccessible" messages.
That would cause tests/tail-2/assert.sh to fail sometimes,
mainly on uniprocessor systems.
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Also monitor IN_DELETE
events on the directory, to avoid a dentry unlink()..open() race,
where the open() on the deleted file was seen to succeed after an,
unlink() and a subsequent IN_ATTRIB, was sent to tail. Note an
IN_ATTRIB is sent on the monitored file to indicate the change in
number of links, and we can't just use a decrease in the number of
links to determine the file being unlinked, due to the possibility
of the file having multiple links.
Reported by Assaf Gordon and Ludovic Courtès.

* src/shred.c (dopass): With -O2, GCC 5.1 gives "assuming signed
overflow does not occur when simplifying conditional to constant"
warnings, in regard to the signed (off_t) variables. Therefore
use unsigned (uintmax_t) instead, and a separate boolean to cater
for the special meaning of the negative part of the integer range.
Noticed at http://hydra.nixos.org/build/24983447
|
|
Includes a change to xalloc.h to avoid -Wstrict-overflow warnings
with GCC 5.1 on 32 bit with optimization enabled. A subsequent
commit will fix similar issues in shred.
|
|
* src/dircolors.hin: Add "xterm-termite" as this VTE based terminal
emulator is quite different from xterm, despite the name.
For example "Termite supports italic text and it won't work if TERM
is set to xterm. Even the backspace key won't work properly anymore
for applications relying on terminfo".
Reported also by Lukas Sabota and Sven-Hendrik Haase.

In the presence of bind mounts of a device, the 4th "mount root" field
from /proc/self/mountinfo is now considered, so as to prefer mount
points closer to the root of the device. Note on older systems with
an /etc/mtab file, the source device was listed as the originating
directory, and so this was not an issue.
Details at http://pad.lv/1432871
* src/df.c (filter_mount_list): When deduplicating mount entries,
only prefer sources nearer or at the root of the device, when the
target is nearer the root of the device.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
|
|
This includes a change to propagate the 4th "mount root"
field from /proc/self/mountinfo from the mountlist module,
which is needed in a subsequent commit in df.
* gl/lib/regcomp.c.diff: Regenerate against latest gnulib.
* gl/lib/regex_internal.c.diff: Likewise.
* gl/lib/regex_internal.h.diff: Likewise.
* cfg.mk: Exclude diffs from trailing whitespace check,
which is generally correct, and now needed.

When configured with either 'symlinks' or 'shebangs' as value for
the --enable-single-binary option, tests based on `ulimit -v` are
skipped. The reason is that the multicall 'coreutils' binary requires
much more memory due to shared libraries being loaded, and the size of
the 'date' binary (~290KiB) compared to the multicall binary (~5MiB),
of course. Finally, in the case of 'shebangs', the starting shell
requires more memory, too
Instead of using hard-coded values for the memory limit, use an
adaptive approach: first determine the amount of memory for a similar,
yet more trivial invocation of the command, and then do the real test
run using that limit (plus some buffer in some cases).
* init.cfg (require_ulimit_v_): Remove function.
(get_min_ulimit_v_): Add function to determine the minimum memory limit
required for a given command in an adaptive way.
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_ulimit_without_require_): Change the name
of the above function in the syntax-check rule.
* tests/cp/link-heap.sh: Use the above function to determine the
minimum memory required to run a command simpler than in the real test
run. Use that limit plus a buffer there. While at it, change to list
of commands in the subshell to fail also if the beginning `ulimit -v`
fails.
* tests/dd/no-allocate.sh: Likewise.
* tests/misc/csplit-heap.sh: Likewise.
* tests/misc/cut-huge-range.sh: Likewise.
* tests/misc/head-c.sh: Likewise.
* tests/misc/printf-surprise.sh: Likewise.
* tests/split/line-bytes.sh: Likewise.
* tests/rm/many-dir-entries-vs-OOM.sh: Likewise - doing it separately
for each program under test.

|
* src/runcon.c (main): As per the compile time warning from
libselinux-2.4-3, lookup the class with string_to_security_class(),
rather than using defines from flask.h.
|
|
* src/sort.c (main): With --debug, warn upon setlocale() failure,
which can happen due to incorrectly specified environment variables,
or due to memory exhaustion (simulated with ulimit -v), etc.
* tests/misc/sort-debug-warn.sh: Add a test case.

du calls stat for each mount point at startup. This would block or
even make du fail if stat for an unrelated mount point hangs.
The result is not needed in the normal case anyway and therefore
should be avoided. Issue introduced in commit v8.19-2-gcf7e1b5.
* src/du.c (fill_mount_table): Move function up as it's not used ...
(mount_point_in_fts_cycle): ... here, i.e., the DI_MNT set is
initialized and filled only iff FTS has detected a directory cycle.
(main): Remove the initialization and filling of the DI_MNT set here,
and free the DI_MNT set only if it was used.

The -NUMBER option was removed from ‘shred’ in 1999, but the
manual wasn’t updated to match. Problem reported by Nick Rose in:

numfmt --field=LIST can accept the same options as cut.
* bootstrap.conf: remove xlist, linked-list
* src/local.mk: link numfmt with set-fields
* src/numfmt.c: use set-fields.c instead of custom field parsing code.
(include_field): adapt to new code.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: add new tests, adapt current tests to new
error message wording from set-fields.c
|
|
Extract the functionality of parsing --field=LIST into a separate
module, to be used by other programs.
* src/cut.c: move field parsing code from here ...
* src/set-fields.{c,h}: ... to here.
(set_fields): generalize by supporting multiple parsing/reporting
options.
(struct range_pair): rename to field_range_pair.
* src/local.mk: link cut with set-field.
* po/POTFILES.in: add set-field.c
* tests/misc/cut.pl: update wording of error messages
|
|
* src/sort.c (main): Ensure we don't free() and invalid
pointer when reading implicit stdin. Also avoid
"definitely lost" valgrind warnings in the --files0-from case.
|
|
Since commit v8.23-19-g8defcee, main() will return,
rather than call exit(), this inducing "definitely lost"
warnings in valgrind's leak checker. That precludes using
the following to flag memory leaks:
valgrind --leak-check=full --error-exitcode=1 \
--errors-for-leak-kinds=definite
* src/pr.c (main): In dev builds, explicitly free memory allocated.
* src/sort.c (main): Likewise.
* src/tail.c (main): Likewise.
* src/tsort.c (tsort): Likewise.
|
|
* tests/misc/tty-eof.pl: Add numfmt to the list of programs
that accept input on stdin.
|
|
* src/ls.c (getenv_quoting_style, decode_switches, parse_ls_color):
Use quote() rather than quotearg(), as the latter defaults to
outputting the input unquoted.
* src/ptx.c (main): Likewise.
|
|
* src/base64.c (main): Support decimal numbers with leading zeros,
by disabling the auto detection of octal and hex. It's not
envisaged that base conversion is needed for --wrap parameters,
and in the edge case it is, $((0x0)) shell constructs can be used.
* tests/misc/base64.pl: Adjust accordingly.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
