2009-01-28dd: Better handle user specified offsets that are too bigPádraig Brady
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.

2008-12-02wc: read and process --files0-from= input a name at a time,Jim Meyering
when the file name list is not too large. Before, wc would always read the entire file name list into memory and *then* process each file name. wc does read the list into memory when the list is known not to be too large; this is done in order to be able to align the output numbers, as it does with arguments specified on the command-line * src/wc.c: Include "argv-iter.h". (main): Rewrite to use argv-iter when the input file name list is known to be too large. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
2008-12-02du: read and process --files0-from= input a name at a time,Jim Meyering
rather than by reading the entire input into memory and *then* processing each file name. * src/du.c: Include "argv-iter.h", not "readtokens0.h". (main): Rewrite to use argv-iter. Call xfts_open on each argument, rather than on the entire argv list at once. Call print_size here, not from du_files. Diagnose read failure. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. * THANKS: update. Reported by Barry Kelly. More details in http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/15159/

Don't include "argmatch.h". No longer used. * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention this. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Remove mv/reply-no. * tests/mv/reply-no: Remove file. * tests/mv/i-link-no: Update, now that --reply= is gone.
2008-11-20cp: use far less memory in some casesJim Meyering
cp --link was "remembering" many name,dev,inode triples unnecessarily. cp was doing the same, even without --link, for every directory in the source hierarchy, while it can do its job with entries merely for the command-line arguments. Prompted by a report from Patrick Shoenfeld. Details <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/15081>. * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Refrain from remembering name,dev,inode for most files, when invoked via cp --link. Record an infloop-avoidance triple for each directory specified on the command line, not for each directory in the source tree. Don't record a dir-triple when x->hard_link is set. * NEWS (Buf fixes): Mention it. * tests/cp/link-heap: New file. Test for cp's lowered memory usage. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add link-heap.

2008-09-27rm -r: avoid O(n^2) performance for a directory with very many entriesJim Meyering
This enhancement works around a problem that is specific to at least ext3 and ext4 file systems. With them, it would take hours to remove a two-million-entry directory. RAM-backed file systems (tmpfs) are not affected, since there is no seek penalty. * remove.c (rm_malloc, rm_free, compare_ino): New functions. (dirent_count, preprocess_dir): New function. [struct readdir_data]: New struct. (remove_cwd_entries): Call preprocess_dir. * tests/rm/ext3-perf: New file. Test for the performance fix. * NEWS: mention the new feature
2008-09-26seq -0.1 0.1 2: print final number when locale's decimal point is ","Jim Meyering
* src/seq.c (print_numbers): Use strtold, not c_strtold to convert from just-formatted-using-asprintf string back to double, since asprintf may have used something other than "." as the decimal point. Reported by lsof@nodata.co.uk as <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/463556>. Thanks to Ondřej Vašík for discovering that the bug was locale-related. $ LC_ALL=cs_CZ.UTF-8 seq -0.1 0.1 2|grep 2.0 [Exit 1] $ seq -0.1 0.1 2|grep 2.0 2.0 * tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Add LOCALE_FR_UTF8, for... * tests/misc/seq [locale-dec-pt]: New test for the above. * NEWS (bug fix): Mention it.
