* NEWS: Document this.
* src/sort.c (avoid_trashing_input): The previous fix to this
function didn't fix all the problems with this code. Replace it
with something simpler: just copy the input file. This doesn't
change the number of files, so return void instead of the updated
file count. Caller changed.
* tests/misc/sort-merge-fdlimit: Test for the bug.
|

Those options are useful only on systems that lack inotify support
and in the unusual event that a system with inotify support must
resort to polling.
* src/tail.c (usage): Note that the --max-unchanged-stats=N and
--sleep-interval=N options are rarely useful on systems with
inotify support.
* doc/coreutils.texi (tail invocation): Likewise.
|
|
* src/sort.c (avoid_trashing_input): Fix a typo that could cause a
buffer overrun in theory. In practice this is extremely unlikely,
as it requires running out of file descriptors in a small merge,
presumably because some other process is hogging all the OS's file
descriptors.
|
|
* NEWS: Document the --compress reaper fixes installed yesterday.
|
|
* tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Default TMPDIR to /tmp,
rather than to the working directory; this is more common in
practice, which makes the tests more real-worldish; and it is
often faster. Also, it avoids some problems with NFS cleanups.
* tests/misc/sort-compress: Remove unnecessary code setting TMPDIR.
* tests/misc/sort-compress-proc: Likewise. Do the final sleep
only if TMPDIR is relative, which should be rarely given the
change to TESTS_ENVIRONMENT.
|
|
* src/sort.c (uintptr): New type.
(enum procstate, struct procnode, update_proc): Remove.
(proctab_hasher, proctab_comparator, register_proc, wait_proc):
(reap_some): The proctab is now simply a hash of process-IDs
rather than of pointers to objects with reference counts and
states; this is smaller and faster and easier to understand.
(nprocs): Now pid_t, not size_t, since one cannot have more than
PID_MAX children.
(reap): If the argument is -1, wait; if 0 (a new value), do not.
Delete pid from proctab as needed. Ignore children that are not
in proctab, as they are from the program that exec'ed us and are
irrelevant to our success or failure.
(delete_proc, reap_all): New functions.
(open_temp): Register the child.
(sort): Clean up all children afterwards; without this patch,
'sort' sometimes missed failures in children due to race conditions.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add misc/sort-compress-proc.
* tests/misc/sort-compress-proc: New file, to test for the
bugs fixed above.
|
|
* tests/misc/sort-stale-thread-mem: Fix typo in comment.
|
|
* tests/install/basic-1 (just_built_dd): Use warn_, rather than
cat and exit 77.
|
|
* tests/misc/sort-stale-thread-mem: Don't initialize fail=0 here;
that is done in init.sh. This avoids a syntax-check failure.
Invoke "Exit $fail" at end, too.
Mark as a very expensive test.
|
|
* tests/misc/sort-stale-thread-mem: New tests.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
|
|
* tests/misc/printenv: Filter out LD_PRELOAD, as the comment
said, not LD_LIBRARY.

This change does not fix the actual bug. That was done by commit
c9db0ac6, "sort: preallocate merge tree nodes to heap". The fix
was to store each "node" structure on the heap, not on the stack.
Otherwise, a node from one thread's stack could be used in another
thread after the first thread had expired (via pthread_join).
This bug was very hard to trigger when using spinlocks, but
easier once we began using mutexes.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

|
|
* src/sort.c (xfopen, debug_key, sortlines, sort, main): Adjust
formatting: fix misplaced braces, use consistent spacing,
split a 2-stmt line.
|
|
* src/sort.c (specify_nthreads, merge_tree_init, init_node):
(queue_init, sortlines, struct thread_args, sort, main):
Use size_t, not unsigned long int, for thread counts, since thread
counts are now used to compute sizes.
(specify_nthreads): Check for size_t overflow.
(merge_tree_init, sort): Shorten name of local variable, for
readability.
(merge_tree_init): Move constants next to each other in product,
so that the constant folding is easier to see.
(init_node): Now static. Add 'restrict' only where it might
be helpful for compiler optimization.
(queue_init): 2nd arg is now nthreads, not "reserve", which is
a bit harder to follow. All uses changed.
(struct thread_args): Rename lo_child to is_lo_child, so that
it's obvious to the reader when we're talking about this boolean
as opposed to the new lo_child member of the other structure.
All uses changed.
(sort): Remove unused local variable end_node.
(main): Don't allow large thread counts to cause undefined behavior
later, due to integer overflow.
|
|
* src/sort.c: (merge_tree_init) New function. Allocates memory for
merge tree nodes.
(merge_tree_destory) New function.
(init_node) New function.
(sortlines) Refactor node creation code to init_node. Remove now
superfluous arguments. All callers changed.
(sort) Initialize/destory merge tree. Refactor root node creation
to merge_tree_init.
|
|
* src/sort.c: Comment fix re spin locks.
|
|
Running a command like this on a multi-core system
sort < big-file | less
would peg all processors at near 100% utilization.
* src/sort.c: (struct merge_node) Change member lock to mutex.
All uses changed.
* tests/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove definition, now that
this test passes once again. I.e., the sort-spinlock-abuse test
no longer fails.
* NEWS (Bug reports): Mention this.
Reported by DJ Lucas in http://debbugs.gnu.org/7489.

When -n l/N is used and long lines are present that both
span partitions and multiple buffers, one would get
inconsistent chunk sizes.
* src/split.c (main): Add a new undocumented ---io-blksize option
to support full testing with varied buffer sizes.
(cwrite): Refactor most handling of --elide-empty to here.
(bytes_split): Remove handling of --elide-empty.
(lines_chunk_split): Likewise. The specific issue here
was the first handling of elide_empty_files interfered
with the replenishing of the input buffer.
* test/misc/split-lchunk: Add -e and the new ---io-blksize
combinations to the test.
|
|
* tests/misc/sort-compress (SORT): Remove unused definition.
|
|
* tests/misc/sort-spinlock-abuse: On a busy system, with only 12
pauses of length 0.1 seconds, the buggy (busy-spinlock blocked)
sort would fail to accumulate 1 second of CPU time, and hence
would mistakenly pass. Increase from 12 to 50.
|
|
* src/sort.c (struct thread_args, sortlines_thread, sortlines, sort):
Rename "merge_queue" to "queue", for consistency with other functions
that just use the name "queue" for these things.
|
|
* src/sort.c (queue_check_insert): Clarify body a bit, and remove
no-longer-needed comment.
|
|
* src/sort.c (mergelines_node): Return void, not size_t. All
callers changed. Change *node->dest here, not in caller.
Do not change node->dest: it's not needed and could cause problems
on (mostly theoretical) hosts that do not allow adding integers to
null pointers.
(queue_check_insert_parent): Omit MERGED parameter; no longer needed.
All callers changed.
|
|
* src/sort.c (write_unique): Simplify slightly so that there is
just one call to write_line, not two.
|
|
* src/sort.c (queue_check_insert, queue_check_insert_parent): Make
the queue arg first, for consistency with other functions such as
queue_insert that put the queue arg first. Rename from
check_insert and update_parent, respectively. All callers
changed.
|
|
* src/sort.c (struct merge_node): 'lock' is now the actual lock,
not a pointer to the lock; there's no need for indirection here.
Make 'level' unsigned int instead of size_t, since it is a
bit-shift count; also, move it next to a bool so that it's more
likely to take less space. All uses changed.
(sortlines, sort): Spell out initialization instead of using an
initializer. This makes the initializer a bit easier to understand,
and avoids unnecessary stores into the spin lock.
|
|
* src/sort.c: Improve comments a bit.
|
|
This problem was observed on RHEL 5.5 x86-64 when running as a
client of a NetApp FAS2050.
* tests/cp/cp-mv-backup: Don't leave a file descriptor open to
a file in a directory that will be cleaned up with "rm -rf".
Under NFS, when the rm unlinks that file, it is instead renamed
to .nfsXXXX and then rm cannot remove the parent directory,
and the test fails.
* tests/cp/same-file: Likewise.
|
|
The actual fix is in gnulib's lib/utimecmp.c.
* NEWS: Document fix.
|
|
|
|
* src/sort.c (MAX_MERGE): Avoid integer overflow when on a machine
with (say) 32-bit int and 64-bit size_t and when level == 15.
Without this fix, on such a machine with 32768 or more processors,
the level computation could overflow on large input, and this
would result in division by zero.
|
|
* tests/misc/sort-unique-segv: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
|
|
* src/sort.c (write_unique): Save the entire "struct line", not
just a pointer to one. Otherwise, with a multi-thread run,
sometimes, with some inputs, fillbuf would would win a race
and clobber a "saved->text" pointer in one thread just before
it was dereferenced in a comparison in another thread.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
|
|
* tests/envvar-check (vars): Add OMP_NUM_THREADS.
|
|
* tests/misc/sort-spinlock-abuse: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
(XFAIL_TESTS): Mark this as an expected-to-fail (for now) test.
|
|
* src/tsort.c (tsort): Unconditionally invoking the free()
doesn't increase scalability, so do it only with -Dlint
|
|
* README-valgrind: Include the "noinst" programs in
those wrapped by valgrind. Update $PATH in check.mk
rather than Makefile.am. Make wrapper scripts
work when suppressions not setup. Keep lines < 80 chars.
|
|
This patch was written by Jim Meyering and myself.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Turn EISDIR to ENOTDIR to improve the
quality of diagnostics for commands like "cp a nosuch/". Reported
by Марк Коренберг and Alan Curry in the thread starting at:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2010-11/msg00178.html
* THANKS: Update.
* tests/mv/trailing-slash: Add a test.
|
|

--unbuffered, --elide-empty-files.
(set_suffix_length): New function to auto increase suffix length
to handle a specified number of files.
(create): New function. Refactored from cwrite() and ofile_open().
(bytes_split): Add max_files argument to support byte chunking.
(lines_chunk_split): New function. Split file into chunks of lines.
(bytes_chunk_extract): New function. Extract a chunk of file.
(of_info): New struct. Used by functions lines_rr and ofile_open
to keep track of file descriptors associated with output files.
(ofile_open): New function. Shuffle file descriptors when there
are more output files than available file descriptors.
(lines_rr): New function to distribute lines round-robin to files.
(chunk_parse): New function. Parses K/N syntax.
* tests/misc/split-bchunk: New test for byte chunking.
* tests/misc/split-lchunk: New test for line delimited chunking.
* tests/misc/split-rchunk: New test for round-robin chunking.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference new tests.

* NEWS: Add 2nd blank line to separate latest changes from
those of 8.7, to avoid syntax-check failure.
|
|
* NEWS: Describe patch.

* src/od.c: Include ftoastr.h, not float.h.
(FLT_DIG, DBL_DIG): Remove. No need to verify LDBL_DIG.
(FMT_BYTES_ALLOCATED): No need to worry about floating point now,
since this format is no longer used for floating point.
(PRINT_FIELDS): New macro, with most of the guts of the old PRINT_TYPE.
(PRINT_TYPE): Rewrite to use PRINT_FIELDS.
(PRINT_FLOATTYPE): New macro. This uses the new functions from

E.g.,
-test "$VERBOSE" = yes && { env -- pwd --version; readlink --version; }
+print_ver_ pwd readlink
-test "$VERBOSE" = yes && { stdbuf --version; mv --version; }
+print_ver_ stdbuf mv
Use this command:
git grep -l 'VERBOSE.*--version'|xargs perl -ni \
-e '/^test "\$VERBOSE" = yes && { .*--version/ or print,next;' \
-e 's/env -- //g;' \
-e 's/test "\$VERBOSE" = yes && { /print_ver_ /;' \
-e ' s/(\w+) --version;/$1/g; s/ *}$//; print'

E.g.,
-test "$VERBOSE" = yes && env -- pwd --version
+print_ver_ pwd
git grep -l 'VERBOSE.*--version'|xargs perl -pi -e \
's/test "\$VERBOSE" = yes && env -- (\w+) --version/print_ver_ $1/'
|
|
Automatically make all of the changes like this:
-test "$VERBOSE" = yes && chgrp --version
