When processing a hard-linked file, du must keep track of the file's
device and inode numbers in order to avoid counting its storage
more than once. When du would process many hard linked files --
as are created by some backup tools -- the amount of memory required
for the supporting data structure could become prohibitively large.
This patch takes advantage of the fact that the amount of information
in the numbers of the typical dev,inode pair is far less than even
32 bits, and hence usually fits in the space of a pointer, be it
32 or 64 bits wide. A typical du traversal examines files on no
more than a handful of distinct devices, so the device number can
be encoded in just a few bits. Similarly, few inode numbers use
all of the high bits in an ino_t. Before, we would represent the
dev,inode pair using a naive struct, and allocate space for each.
Thus, an entry in the hash table consisted of a pointer (to that
struct) and a "next" pointer. With this change, we encode the
dev,inode information and put those bits in place of the pointer,
and thus do away with the need to allocate additional space for
each dev,inode pair.

Previously we defaulted to "long-iso" format in locales without
specific format translations, like the en_* locales for example.
This reverts part of commit 6837183d, 08-11-2005, "ls ... acts like
--time-style='posix-long-iso' if the locale settings are messed up"
* src/ls.c (decode_switches): Only use the ISO format when specified.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

* src/stat.c (main): Remove support for the --context (-Z) option.
In upstream releases this option has always been a no-op. It was
first ignored for compatibility, and since the June 2008 commit,
574f7614 (coreutils-7.0), its use has evoked a warning.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention it.
|
|
* src/touch.c (main): Remove support for the deprecated, long-named
--file option, which is an alternate name for --reference (-r).
That option was undocumented with the arrival of --reference, in
the 1995-10-29 commit, 8b92864e1d. Since the 2009-02-09 commit,
ed85df444a, use of --file has elicited a warning. Not only was
this code due for removal, but the long-name-use-detecting code
was buggy in that it would use a stale or uninitialized "long_idx",
as reported by Robin H. Johnson in http://bugs.gentoo.org/322421.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention it.

Previously we copied `dd` and suppressed error messages
when truncating neither regular files or shared mem objects.
This was valid for `dd`, as truncation is ancillary to copying
it may also do, but for `truncate` we should display all errors.
Also we used the st_size from non regular files which is undefined,
so we display an error when the user tries this.
* src/truncate (do_truncate): Error when referencing the size
of non regular files or non shared memory objects. Display all
errors returned by ftruncate().
(main): Error when referencing the size of non regular files or
non shared memory objects. Don't suppress error messages for
any file types that can't be opened for writing.
* tests/misc/truncate-dir-fail: Check that referencing the
size of a directory is not supported.
* tests/misc/truncate-fifo: Ensure the test doesn't hang
by using the `timeout` command. Don't test the return from
running ftruncate on the fifo as it's system dependent as
to whether this fails or not.
NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

* doc/coreutils.texi (truncate invocation): Mention that --reference
bases the --size rather than just setting it.
* src/truncate.c (usage): Likewise. Also remove the clause
describing --size and --reference as being mutually exclusive.
(do_truncate): Add an extra parameter to hold the size
of a referenced file, and use it if positive.
(main): Pass the size of a referenced file to do_truncate().
* tests/misc/truncate-parameters: Adjust for the new combinations.
* NEWS: Mention the change

* NEWS (New features): Mention it.
* src/du.c (DEBUG_OPT): Remove. Use long-named ---debug instead.
Commented out.
(MAX_DEPTH_OPTION): Remove. Use 'd' instead.
(main): Insert literal "d:"; remove DEBUG_OPT.
* doc/coreutils.texi (du invocation): Add -d to indices.
* tests/du/max-depth: Exercise -d, too.
|

* src/sort.c (usage): Mention --debug can output warnings to stderr.
Also split the translatable string to aid translation.
(default_key_compare): A new function refactored from main(),
and now also called from the new key_warnings() function.
(key_to_opts): A new function refactored from incompatible_options(),
and now also called from the new key_warnings() function.
(key_numeric): A new function refactored to test if key is numeric.
(key_warnings): A new function to output warnings to stderr,
about questionable use of various options. Currently it warns
about zero length keys and ineffective global options.
(incompatible_options): Refactor out key_to_opts()
(main): Use key_init() to initialize gkey. Refactor out
default_key_compare(). Call key_warnings() in debug mode.
* doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Mention that warnings
are output by --debug.
* tests/misc/sort-debug-warn: A new test for debug warnings.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature
|
|
* src/sort (usage): Add description for --debug.
(write_bytes): Pass a line structure so it can subsequently
be passed to compare to highlight the keys when in debug mode.
Also transform TAB and NUL characters written to stdout so
that the highlighting in debug mode aligns correctly.
(human_numcompare): Pass an "endptr" so we can record the extent
of the number matched.
(general_numcompare): Likewise.
(find_unit_order): Likewise.
(getmonth): Likewise.
(numcompare): Likewise. Note we reuse find_unit_order() for this,
which is a good enough approximation, and means we don't need to
change the strnumcmp() interface.
(check_mixed_SI_IEC): Return whether iec_present, so that can be
used to set the "endptr" in find_unit_order. Also make the key
parameter optional, which will be the case from numcompare().
(count_tabs): A new function to determine how much to adjust
the mbswidth() values by (TABs don't have a width).
(mark_key): A new function to output the key highlighting to stdout.
(debug_key): A new function to determine the offset and width
of the key highlighting.
(key_compare): Pass the show_debug parameter so the key highlighting
is only displayed when explicitly called. For each key type, set
the length (lena) and whether leading blanks are auto skipped (skipb)
which are then used by debug_key() to highlight the portion of the
key used in the comparison.
(compare): Pass the show_debug parameter so the key highlighting
is only displayed when explicitly called. Call debug_key() to
highlight the last resort comparison.
(check): Output highlighting for disorder line to stdout.
(main): Process the --debug option and make it mutually exlusive
with the -o option as I don't see it useful there, even potentially
harmful if someone left a --debug in by mistake when updating a file.
Also restricting debug output to stdout, simplifies the logic
for dealing with temporary files.
* doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Describe the --debug option,
and reference it from the --key description.
* tests/misc/sort-debug-keys: A new test for highlighting keys.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.

* src/sort.c (general_numcompare): Use long doubles unconditionally,
and strtold when available, to convert numbers with greater range and
precision. Performance was seen to be on par with standard doubles.
* doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Amend the -g description to
mention long double rather than double, and strtold rather than strtod.
* src/getlimits.c (main): Output floating point limits for use in tests.
* tests/misc/sort-float: A new test to ensure sort is using long
doubles when possible, and that locale specific floats are handled.

This regression was introduced in commit 224a69b5, 2009-02-24,
"sort: Fix two bugs with determining the end of field".
The specific regression being that we include 1 field too many when
an end field is specified using obsolescent key syntax (+POS -POS).
* src/sort.c (struct keyfield): Clarify the description of the eword
member, as suggested by Alan Curry.
(main): When processing obsolescent format key specifications,
normalize eword to a zero based count when no specific end char is given
for an end field. This matches what's done when keys are specified with -k.
* tests/misc/sort: Add a few more tests for the obsolescent key formats,
with test 07i being the particular failure addressed by this change.
* THANKS: Add Alan Curry who precisely identified the issue.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

Based on a report from Kim Hansen who wanted to
send a KILL signal to the monitored command
when `timeout` itself received a termination signal.
Rather than changing such a signal into a KILL,
we provide the more general mechanism of sending
the KILL after the specified grace period.
* src/timeout.c (cleanup): If a non zero kill delay
is specified, (re)set the alarm to that delay, after
which a KILL signal will be sent to the process group.
(usage): Mention the new option. Separate the description
of DURATION since it's now specified in 2 places.
Clarify that the duration is an integer.
(parse_duration): A new function refactored from main(),
since this logic is now called for two parameters.
(main): Parse the -k option.
* doc/coreutils.texi (timeout invocation): Describe the
new --kill-after option and use @display rather than
@table to show the duration suffixes. Clarify that
a duration of 0 disables the associated timeout.
* tests/misc/timeout-parameters: Check invalid --kill-after.
* tests/misc/timeout: Check a valid --kill-after works.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.

* src/sort.c (char fold_toupper[]): Change to unsigned
so as the correct comparisons are made in getmonth().
This fixes unibyte locales where abbreviated months
have characters that are > 0x7F, but it also works for
multibyte locales with the caveat that multibyte characters
are matched case sensitively.
With this change, the following example sorts correctly:
$ echo -e "1 márta\n2 Feabhra" | LANG=ga_IE.utf8 sort -k2,2M
2 Feabhra
1 márta
* src/sort.c (inittables): Since we ignore blanks around months
in the input, don't include them when they're present in the locale.
With this change, the following example sorts correctly:
$ echo -e "1 2月\n2 1月" | LANG=ja_JP.utf8 sort -k2,2M
2 1月
1 2月
* tests/misc/sort-month: A new test to exercise the above cases.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

Output the NORMAL attribute before non file name text.
This attribute will continue into file names that would
not otherwise be colored unless FILE is also set.
The regression was introduced with commit 483297d5, 28-02-2009,
"ls --color no longer outputs unnecessary escape sequences".
* src/ls.c (set_normal_color): A new function to output the
NORMAL attribute sequence if it's enabled.
(print_current_files): Output NORMAL before printing long format info.
(print_file_name_and_frills): Output NORMAL before printing file name.
(print_color_indicator): Reset the attributes before a file name with
attributes so that NORMAL attributes will not combine with them.
(print_name_with_quoting): Ensure attributes are reset after printing
the file name if NORMAL attributes were output.
* tests/ls/color-norm: A new test for NORMAL and FILE combinations.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

Previously passing an empty parameter to -t would
raise an error, but now it means to treat each line
as a single field for matching. This matches the
default operation of `sort` which is usually used
in conjunction with join.
* src/join.c (main): Set the field delimiter to '\n' if
an empty parameter is passed to -t.
(usage): Mention the operation of -t ''.
* tests/misc/join: Add 2 new tests, for the existing -t '\0'
and the new -t '' functionality.
* doc/coreutils.texi (join invocation): Mention that
join -t '' always operates on the whole line, while
join -t '\0' usually does.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

This essentially allows one to use --check-order with headings.
Note join without --check-order will already handle the common case
where headings do match in each file, however using --check-order will fail
often when the header sorts after the first line of data.
Note also that this will join header lines from each file even if
they don't match, with headings from the first file being used.
* NEWS: Mention the new option.
