Input buffering is best avoided because it introduces
delayed processing of output for intermittent input,
especially when the output size is less than that of
the input buffer. This is significant when output
is being further processed which could happen if split
is writing to precreated fifos, or through --filter.
If input is arriving quickly from a pipe then this will
already be buffered before we read it, so fast arriving
input shouldn't be a performance issue.

lines_chunk_split, bytes_chunk_extract): s/full_read/safe_read/.

For files with "special" bits set, we would stat the relative
file name in the wrong directory, giving an erroneous ENOENT diagnostic.
This issue was introduced with commit v5.92-653-gc1994c1
which changed fts to not change directory on traversal.
* src/chmod.c (mode_changed): Use fts->fts_cwd_fd with fstatat rather
than stat. All callers changed.

Prior to this change, "ln -sr '' F" would segfault, attempting
to read path2[1] in relpath.c's path_common_prefix function.
This problem arises whenever canonicalize_filename_mode returns
NULL.

both canonicalize_filename_mode calls return non-NULL.
* tests/ln/relative.sh: Add a test to trigger this failure.

- Support arbitrary numbers in --groups, consistent with
what is already done for --userspec
- Avoid look-ups entirely for --groups items with a leading '+'
- Support names that are actually numbers in --groups
- Ignore an empty --groups="" option for consistency with --userspec
- Look up both inside and outside the chroot with inside taking
precedence. The look-up outside may load required libraries
to complete the look-up inside the chroot. This can happen for
example with a 32 bit chroot on a 64 bit system, where the
32 bit NSS plugins within the chroot fail to load.
* src/chroot.c (parse_additional_groups): A new function refactored
from set_addition_groups(), to just do the parsing. The actual
setgroups() call is separated out for calling from the chroot later.
(main): Call parse_user_spec() and parse_additional_groups()
both outside and inside the chroot for the reasons outlined above.
* tests/misc/chroot-credentials.sh: Ensure arbitrary numeric IDs
can be specified without causing look-up errors.

Since v8.21-172-g33660b4, df not only treats symbolic link arguments
differently, as stated there, but now generally processes special file
arguments in a non-canonicalized form correctly:

Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs 1014572 48 1014524 1% /dev
$ cd /dev && df-new sdb

libcrypto is generally available and has well optimized
crypto hash routines particular to various systems.
For example, testing sha1sum with openssl-1.0.0j

This is so the matching for the device is done on the canonical name

before matching against the list of mounted file system devices.
Note we pass the original symlink name to the "file" output field,

cp, mv, install, mkdir, mkfifo, mknod are adjusted so that:
-Z no longer accepts an argument.
-Z or --context without an argument do not warn without SELinux.
--context with an argument will warn without SELinux.
* src/local.mk: Reference the new selinux module where required.
* src/system.h: Make the argument to --context optional.
* src/mkdir.c: Likewise. Also handle the SMACK case for --context.
Note we currently silently ignore -Z with SMACK.
* src/mkfifo.c: Likewise.
* src/mknod.c: Likewise.
* src/install.c: Likewise. Note install(1) by default already
set the context for target files to their system default,
albeit with an older method. Use the -Z option to select between
the old and new context restoration behavior, and document
the differences and details for how context restoration
is done in new and old methods, with a view disabling the
old method entirely in future.
* src/cp.c: Make the argument to --context optional.
Note -Z implies --no-preserve=context. I.E. -Z overrides
that aspect of -a no matter what order specified.
(struct cp_options): Document the context handling options.
(main): Check/adjust option combinations after all
options are processed, to both simplify processing
and to make handling independent of order of options
on the command line. Also improve the diagnostics
from a failed call to setfscreatecon().
(set_process_security_ctx): A new function,
refactored to set the default context from the source file,
or with the type adjusted as per the system default for
the destination path.
(set_file_security_ctx): A new function refactored to
set the security context of an existing file, either based on
the process context or the default system context for a path.
(copy_internal): Use the refactored functions to simplify
error handling and consistently fail or warn as needed.
(copy_reg): Likewise.
(copy_internal): With --preserve=context, also copy
context from non regular files. Note for directories this may
impact the copying of subsequent files to that directory?
(copy_attr): If we're handling SELinux explicitly,
then exclude to avoid the redudant copy with --preserve=context,
and the problematic copy with -Z. Note SELinux attribute exclusion
also now honors cp -a --no-preserve=context. Note there was a
very small window over 10 years ago, where attr_copy_file was
available, while attr_copy_check_permissions was not, so we
don't bother adding an explicit m4 check for the latter function.
* src/mv.c: Support --context, but don't allow specifying an argument.
* src/chcon.c: Adjust a comment to be specific to SELinux.
* src/runcon.c: Likewise.
* src/copy.c: Honor the context settings to "restorecon" as appropriate.
* src/copy.h: Add a new setting to select "restorecon" functionality.
* tests/mkdir/selinux.sh: s/-Z/--context=/
* tests/cp/cp-a-selinux.sh: Augment this test with cases
testing basic -Z functionality, and also test the various
invalid option combinations and option precedence.
* tests/mkdir/restorecon.sh: Add a new test for the
more involved mkdir -Z handling, since the directory changing
and non existent directories need to be specially handled.
Also check the similar but simpler handling of -Z by mk{nod,fifo}.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Update as per interface changes.

A sync operation is very often expensive. For illustration
I timed the following python script which indicated that
each ext4 dir sync was taking about 2ms and 12ms, on an
SSD and traditional disk respectively.
import os
d=os.open(".", os.O_DIRECTORY|os.O_RDONLY)
for i in range(1000):
os.fdatasync(d)
So syncing for each character for each file can result
in significant delays. Often this overhead is redundant,
as only the data is sensitive and not the file name.
Even if the names are sensitive, your file system may
employ synchronous metadata updates, which also makes
explicit syncing redundant.
* tests/misc/shred-remove.sh: Ensure all the new parameters
actually unlink the file.
* doc/coreutils.texi (shred invocation): Describe the new
parameters to the --remove option.
* src/shred.c (Usage): Likewise.

Since the I/O overhead is significant to the relatively
simple processing done by this utility, use fputs() rather
than fputc() to output '\n'.
Time to process a 100MiB file was measured to
decrease from 0.417s to 0.383s, i.e. an 8% improvement.
Related to these changes, is a processing improvement in
gnulib, which increases throughput by 60% when processing
full buffers, which improves processing of a 100MiB file
with standard wrapped output, down to 0.256s.
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=commit;h=43fd1e7b
Also increase the encoding buffer size from 3 to 30KiB.
This was seen to give a further 8% improvement, taking
processing time down to 0.235s in the wrapped output case.
The decoding size buffer is not adjusted,
due to the noted caveat with --ignore-garbage.
* src/base64.c (BLOCKSIZE): Split into ENC_ and DEC_ variants,
with the former increased from 3KiB to 30KiB.
(wrap_write): Use the simpler fputc() rather than fputs()
to output the '\n' character. Also check against EOF
rather than < 0 for errors.
(do_encode): Likewise.
* NEWS: Mention the large increase in performance, which
with the I/O improvements in coreutils and the processing
improvement in gnulib, amount to about a 60% throughput increase.
|
|
* src/shred.c (dopass): In the periodic pattern case increase the
I/O block size from 12KiB to 60KiB (also a multiple of 3 and 4096).
* NEWS: Adjust accordingly.

Since direct I/O is now enabled with commit v8.21-139-gebaf961
we must handle the case where we write an odd size at the
end of a file (with --exact), or we specify an odd --size that
is larger than 64KiB, or in the very unlikely case of a device
with an odd size. This issue was present since direct I/O
support was first added in v5.3.0, but latent since v6.0.
Theoretically this could have also been an issue after that on
systems which didn't have alignment constraints, but did have
size constraints for direct I/O.
* src/shred.c (dopass): On the first pass for a file, always
retry a write that fails with EINVAL, so we handle direct I/O
failure at either the start or end of the file. Adjust the comment
as the original case is out of date and implicitly handled
by this more general fix.
* tests/misc/shred-exact.sh: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Add a "bug fix" entry for shred since there are
two related issues now fixed.

* src/copy.c (create_hard_link): Add a bool 'dereference' parameter,
and pass AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW as 'flags' to linkat() when dereference
is true.
(should_dereference): Add new 'bool' function to determine if a
file should be dereferenced or not.
(copy_internal): Use the above new should_dereference() and remember
its return value in a new local bool 'dereference' variable. Use that
in all three calls to create_hard_link().
* src/cp.c (main): after parsing the options, if x.dereference is
still DEFEF_UNDEFINED and the x.recursive is true, then only set
x.dereference to DEREF_NEVER iff --link was not specified.
* doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Mention that cp(1) does not
follow symbolic links in the source when --link is specified.
Likewise in the description of the -R option when used together with
that option.
* tests/cp/same-file.sh: Adapt the expected results for the -fl,
the -bl and the -bfl tests.
* tests/cp/link-deref.sh: Add a new test.

Commit v5.92-1057-g43d487b introduced a regression
in coreutils 6.0 where it removed the page alignment
of the buffer to write, thus disabling direct I/O.
We want to use direct I/O when possible to avoid
impacting the page cache at least, as we know we don't
want to cache the data we're writing.
* src/shred.c (dopass): Allocate the buffer on the heap,
while using a more general calculation to allow to have
the output size independent from the fillpattern() size
constraint of a multiple of 3. Also we dispense with the
union as it's no longer needed given we're aligning on
a page boundary and thus don't need to explicitly handle
uint32_t alignment.

Enable showing of file SMACK security with '-Z' command-line switch
if SMACK is enabled. Showing SMACK context of a file does not strictly
require SMACK to be enabled but this required to make choice whether to
show SELinux or SMACK security context.
* src/ls.c (getfilecon_cache): Retrieve SMACK context if available.
(gobble_file): Handle SMACK context similarly to SELinux context.
* src/local.mk: Link lsl with libsmack.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* .mailmap: Merge the Author's 2 email addresses.

This is consistent with the documented interface and
avoids any ambiguity in a user thinking that stdbuf without options
might reset to a "standard" buffering setup.
* src/stdbuf.c (set_libstdbuf_options): Indicate with the return value
whether any env variables were actually set.
(main): Fail unless some env variables were set.
* tests/misc/stdbuf.sh: Ensure this constraint is enforced.
* NEWS: Mention the small change in behavior.

For a file of size 1234 bytes, commit ca9aa759 had the side effect
of changing 'stat -c "%'s" file' from outputting "?s" to the nicer
"1,234", depending on locale. This is worth mentioning in the NEWS.
Resolves part of http://bugs.gnu.org/14556.
* NEWS: Mention 8.7 improvement in stat.
* cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Adjust accordingly.
