Record release date and new version number.

(copy_reg): Upon failure to open a dangling destination symlink, don't
canonicalize the name, but rather fail (default) or, with POSIXLY_CORRECT,
repeat the open call without O_EXCL (potentially dangerous).
* src/copy.h (struct cp_options) [open_dangling_dest_symlink]:
New member. Reorder the others, grouping "bool" and "enum"
members together.

* NEWS: Say this.
* src/seq.c (print_numbers): Handle another floating point corner case.
This avoids failure of seq's eq-wid-7 test on FreeBSD 6.1.
|

* NEWS: Mention the %%-in-format bug fix.
* src/seq.c (struct layout): New type.
(long_double_format): New arg LAYOUT. Fill it in. Fix mishandling
of %% in formats.
(print_numbers): New arg LAYOUT. Don't convert LAST to output format
when deciding whether to go slightly past LAST. Instead, convert
X to output format and back. This fixes a bug reported by
Andreas Schwab in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2007-10/msg00237.html>
where "seq 10.8 0.1 10.95" would output 11.0 on platforms where
10.95 rounds to a value that prints as 11.0 when only one digit
past the decimal point is asked for.
(main): Compute layout, for benefit of print_numbers.
* tests/misc/seq (float-3): Undo previous change, since the bug
should be fixed now.
(fmt-b): New test, for the %% bug.

processing [:lower:] and [:upper:].
(main): Require [:lower:] or [:upper:] in SET1 only when
when one of those is specified in SET2.
* tests/tr/Test.pm: Add tests for this fix.

When operating on a relative name longer than 511 bytes,
and (when either processing a directory that is neither writable
nor readable (but still searchable) or when determining whether
to prompt), and encountering an ENOMEM error while forming the
file name, rm would operate on a truncated-to-511-byte name
starting with "[...]" rather than the intended one.
* NEWS: Describe the bugs.

(full_filename0, xfull_filename): New functions.
(full_filename_): Rewrite to use full_filename0.

On some systems (those with openat et al), when rm would fail to
remove a symlink, it would fail with the misleading diagnostic,
"Too many levels of symbolic links".
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* src/remove.c (is_nondir_lstat): New function.
(remove_entry): Use it to catch failed-to-remove symlink (and any
other non-dir) here so that we don't fall through and try to treat
it as directory, which -- with a symlink -- would provoke the bogus
ELOOP failure.
* tests/rm/fail-eacces: Add a test for the above.

Here's a patch along the lines of
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/10849/focus=10857>.
It's a bit large since it changes the test cases to match the behavior,
and the test cases' file names depend on the behavior!
* NEWS: pr -F no longer suppresses the footer or the first two blank
lines in the header.
* doc/coreutils.texi (pr invocation): Likewise. Also, a too-short
page length implies -t, not -T.
* src/pr.c (lines_per_header, lines_per_footer): Now constants.
(init_parameters): Don't try to change them.
(print_header): Use the same header and footer format regardless of
wither form feeds are being used.
(usage): Adjust to above change when describing too-short page length.
Too-short page length impliesy -t, not -T.
* tests/pr/2-S_f-t_notab: Adjust to the fact that -F now affects
only formfeed handling; it does not change the header.
* tests/pr/2-Sf-t_notab: Likewise.
...
* tests/pr/3-5l17f-t: Remove, since it's been renamed to another
file whose name has a line count 7 larger,
reflecting the new line count needed for this behavior.
* tests/pr/3a3l8f-t: Likewise.
...
* tests/pr/w72l24f-ll: Likewise.

--parents and symlinks. Close some race conditions possible when
the destination replaces a newly-created file with a symlink.
* NEWS: Document that 'cp --parents' no longer mishandles
symlinks in file name components of source.
* src/copy.c (HAVE_LCHOWN): Default to false.
(lchown) [!defined HAVE_LCHOWN]: Define to chown, for convenience.
* src/cp.c (lchown) [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Likewise.
* src/install.c (lchown [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Likewise.
* src/copy.c (set_owner): Use lchown instead of chown, for safety
in case the file got replaced by a symlink in the meantime.
* src/cp.c (re_protect): Likewise.
* src/install.c (change_attributes): Likewise.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use ordinary C rather than an #if.
* src/cp.c (lchown) [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Define to chown, for convenience.
(struct dir_attr): Cache the entire struct stat of the directory,
rather than just its mode, so that we needn't stat the directory
twice (which can lead to races).
(re_protect): Don't use XSTAT as that's not appropriate in
this context (symlinks should be followed here). Instead, use
the cached stat value.
(make_dir_parents_private): Save dir's entire struct stat, not
just its mode.
* tests/cp/cp-parents: Add test to check against bug with
cp --parents and symlinks.
|
|
* NEWS: "cp" no longer considers a destination symlink to be the
same as the referenced file when copying links or making backups.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): When following a symlink, use the
followed name in later chown etc. requests, so that the created
file is affected, rather than the symlink. Use O_NOFOLLOW on
source when not dereferencing symlinks; this avoids a race.
Preserve errno correctly when doing multiple open attempts on the
destination.
(copy_internal): Follow destination symlinks only when copying a
regular file and only when we don't intend to remove or rename the
destination first, regardless of whether following source
symlinks; this is because since POSIX and tradition (e.g.,
FreeBSD) say we should ordinarily follow destination symlinks if
the system calls would ordinarily do so.
* src/copy.h (struct cp_options): Add comment that 'dereference'
is only for source files.
* src/cp.c (usage): Note that --derereference etc. are only for
source files.
(make_dir_parents_private): Follow symlinks, regardless of whether
--dereference is specified, because these are destination symlinks.
* tests/cp/same-file: Adjust tests to match revised behavior.
Filter out perror output since it might vary from host to host.
Use sed alone instead of also using echo.
* doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Document the behavior better when
the destination is a symlink. Clarify source versus destination
symlinks. Describe the new behavior for destination symlinks.
2007-06-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
* src/copy.c: Include "canonicalize.h".
(copy_reg): Use canonicalize_filename_mode to follow the symlink,
so that we can always open with O_EXCL and avoid a race.
|
|
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): When open fails with EEXIST, the destination
is lstat'able, and a symlink, call open again, but now without O_EXCL.
