Check stdout, not stdin.
|
|
* src/touch.c: Mark long-undocumented --file for removal in 2010.
(main): Warn upon use of --file.
|
|
* tests/dd/skip-seek-past-file: I had previously commented that
on some systems lseek(> max file size) may succeed, but left
the possibility of failure in that case, so that I could determine
specific systems to put in the comments for both failure modes.

Following are the before and after operations for seekable files,
for the various erroneous offsets handled by this patch:
skip beyond end of file
before: immediately exit(0);
after : immediately printf("cannot skip to specified offset"); exit(0);
skip > max file size
before: read whole file and exit(0);
after : immediately printf("cannot skip: Invalid argument"); exit(1);
seek > max file size
before: immediately printf("truncate error: EFBIG"); exit(1);
after : immediately printf("truncate error: EFBIG"); exit(1);
skip > OFF_T_MAX
before: read whole device/file and exit(0);
after : immediately printf("cannot skip:"); exit(1);
seek > OFF_T_MAX
before: immediately printf("truncate error: offset too large"); exit(1);
after : immediately printf("truncate error: offset too large"); exit(1);
skip > device size
before: read whole device and exit(0);
after : immediately printf("cannot skip: Invalid argument"); exit(1);
seek > device size
before: read whole device and printf("write error: ENOSPC"); exit(1);
after : immediately printf("cannot seek: Invalid argument"); exit(1);
* NEWS: Summarize this change in behavior.
* src/dd.c (skip): Add error checking for large seek/skip offsets on
seekable files, rather than deferring to using read() to advance offset.
(dd_copy): Print a warning if skip past EOF, as per FIXME comment.
* test/Makefile.am: Add 2 new tests.
* tests/dd/seek-skip-past-file: Add tests for first 3 cases above.
* tests/dd/seek-skip-past-dev: Add root only test for last case above.
|
|
* src/system.h (emit_bug_reporting_address): End each "sentence"
with period, mark URLs with <...>.
Based on a suggestion from Eric Blake.
Use fputs on a string without %s, not printf.
|
|
* man/Makefile.am ($(MAN)): Depend on system.h.
|
|
* man/help2man ($PAT_BUGS): Update regexp to match the newer
"Report PROG bugs ..." --help output, as well as "Report bugs...".
Reported by Eric Blake.
|
|
* maint.mk (install-transform-check): Generalize to work also
in a project that installs manuals in a section other than "1".
|
|
* src/system.h (emit_bug_reporting_address): Define away,
now, gnulib's version-etc.h also declares this function.
In this package, we choose to include each program's name in
the diagnostic. Define away the conflicting declaration.
(emit_bug_reporting_address): Also emit home page and
"General help..." links, like the new function does.
Reported by Bob Proulx.
|
|
* NEWS: Mention the change to the default number of passes.
* doc/Makefile.am: Update constants.texi with the default
number of passes shred uses, so that the documentation
will automatically reflect any future changes.
* doc/coreutils.texi (shred invocation): Update the description
of the --iterations option to have the correct default number,
while still conveying that there are 25 internal patterns
that may be useful.
|
|
* src/shred.c: The concensus is that a default of 3
passes is appropriate for current drive technologies.
* src/TODO: Reference Paul Eggert's suggestion
of enhancing shred to conform to DoD 5220 rules.
|
|
* m4/jm-macros.m4: Use AC_REQUIRE([gl_BIGENDIAN]) instead.
This avoids a subtle problem recently documented in autoconf:
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf.git;a=commitdiff;h=34e2c8d5484
|
|
* src/system.h (STDIN_FILENO, STDOUT_FILENO, STDERR_FILENO):
Remove definitions. Now guaranteed by gnulib.
|
|
* README-hacking: mention XZ utils
* README-prereq: Add a FIXME comment.
|
|
* tests/tail-2/infloop-1: Add a comment to that effect.
|
|
* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): s/dist-lzma/dist-xz/.
Requires recent "xz" from git://ctrl.tukaani.org/lzma-utils.git
|
|
* maint.mk (sc_author_mark_check): Remove rule.
"and" no longer appears in the definition of AUTHORS.
|
|
|
|
* maint.mk (sc_prohibit_cvs_keyword): New rule.
|
|
* src/echo.c: Don't include "long-options.h". No longer used.
* src/printf.c: Likewise.
* src/test.c: Likewise.
|
|
* src/pathchk.c: Compare pathconf limits to _signed_ MAX constants,
as pathconf returns signed values.
|
|
* src/pr.c: Use unsigned variables in unsigned comparisons.
|
|
* src/shred.c: Use already assigned signed variable sizeof_r,
rather than the unsigned sizeof(r). Don't use signed integer
overflow check that contemporary compilers may remove anyway.
|
|
* gl/lib/mgetgroups.c: Avoid -Wsign-compare warning by using unsigned
types for the parameters of the new function realloc_groupbuf().
mgetgroups() was refactored to use this function rather than
explicitly allocating and copying from automatic storage itself.
* src/group-list.c: Use int rather than size_t as variable is
used in signed comparisons.
* src/id.c: ditto.
|
|
* src/test.c (main): Directly parse accepted options, thus
avoiding abbreviations.
* src/echo.c (main): Likewise.
* src/printf.c (main): Likewise.
|
|
* src/cp.c (usage): Show new option -n in --help.
(main): Handle new option -n.
* src/mv.c (usage): Show new option -n in --help.
(main): Handle new option -n.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Document new cp/mv option -n.
* tests/cp/cp-i: Add tests for -f, -i and -n options.
* tests/mv/mv-n: New test for mv -n.
* tests/Makefile.am: Add test mv/mv-n to the list.
* NEWS: Mention the change.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (Common options): Not all utilities reject
option abbreviations.
* src/chroot.c (main): Report correct name on failure.
* src/echo.c (usage): Clarify long option usage.
* src/setuidgid.c (usage): Likewise.
* src/hostid.c (usage): Condense.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (pathchk invocation): Mention pathchk
checks validity (for current system) as well as portability.
Say messages go to stderr, and reorder description of checks
done for the -p option, to match what's done in code.
* src/pathchk.c (usage): Mention pathchk checks name validity.
Suggested clarifications were from Dan Jacobson.
|
|
* src/.gitignore: Ignore getlimits
|
|
* tests/Coreutils.pm: Add function to make limits available
* tests/test-lib.sh: ditto
* tests/misc/join: Check for both SIZE_OFLOW and UINTMAX_OFLOW
rather than using arbitrary 2^128
* tests/misc/sort: ditto
* tests/misc/uniq: ditto
* tests/misc/printf: Check for both INT_OFLOW and INT_UFLOW
rather than using arbitrary -2^31
* tests/misc/seq-long-double: Check for INTMAX_OFLOW
rather than using arbitrary 2^63
* tests/misc/split-fail: Check --lines --bytes and --line-bytes
options limits on all platforms. Note getlimits obviates the
need to use expr to check if 32 bit integers are supported,
which I think was invalid anyway as expr now supports bignum?
* tests/misc/test: Check for UINTMAX_OFLOW rather than
using arbitrary 2^64 and 2^128. Check for INTMAX_UFLOW
rather than using arbitrary -2^64
* tests/misc/timeout-parameters: Check for UINT_OFLOW
rather than using arbitrary 2^32
* tests/misc/truncate-overflow: Don't depend on truncate
to determine if we're on a 32 or 64 bit platform and
instead use the various OFF_T limits
* tests/misc/sort-merge: Check for UINTMAX_OFLOW
rather than using arbitrary 2^64+1
* tests/misc/unexpand: ditto
|
|
* src/stat.c (print_statfs): Print statfs.f_files, the total inode
count of a file system, as an unsigned number.
