2014-07-13build: support building all tools in a single binaryAlex Deymo
Add the --enable-single-binary option to the configure file. When enabled, this option builds a single binary file containing the selected tools. Which tool gets executed depends on the value of argv[0] which can be set implicitly through symlinks to the single program. This setup reduces significantly the size of a complete coreutils install, since code from lib/libcoreutils.a is not duplicated in every one of the more than 100 binaries. Runtime overhead is increased due to more dynamic libraries being loaded, and extra initialization being performed for all utils. Also initially a larger binary is loaded from storage, though this is usually alleviated due to caching and lazy mmaping of unused blocks, and in fact the single binary should have better caching characteristics. Comparing the size of the individual versus single binary on x86_64: $ cd src $ size coreutils $ size -t $(../build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh --list-progs | grep -Ev '(coreutils|libstdbuf)') | tail -n1 text data bss dec hex filename 1097416 5388 88432 1191236 122d44 src/coreutils 4901010 124964 163768 5189742 4f306e (TOTALS) Storage requirements are reduced similarly: $ cd src $ du -h coreutils $ du -ch $(../build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh --list-progs | grep -Ev '(coreutils|libstdbuf)') | tail -n1 1.2M coreutils 5.3M total When installing, the makefile will create either symlinks or shebangs based on the --enable-single-binary setting, for each configured tool. In this way, all the tools are still callable individually, but they are all implemented by the same "coreutils" binary installed on the same directory. * .gitignore: Add new generated files. * Makefile.am: New rules to generate build-aux/gen-single-binary.sh and install symlinks. * NEWS: Mention the new feature. * README: Add "coreutils" to the list of utils. * bootstrap.conf: Regenerate src/single-binary.mk * build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh: New --list-progs option. * build-aux/gen-single-binary.sh: Regenerate * configure.ac: New --enable-single-binary option and other variables. Disallow --enable-single-binary=symlinks with --program-prefix et. al. * man/coreutils.x: Manpage hook. * man/local.mk: Add manpage hook and fix dependencies. * src/coreutils.c: Multicall implementation. * src/local.mk: New rules for the single binary option. * tests/local.mk: Add $single_binary_progs to support require_built_() from init.cfg * tests/misc/env.sh: Avoid the use of symlink to echo. * tests/misc/help-version.sh: Add exception for coreutils. * tests/install/basic-1.sh: Really avoid using ginstall strip functionality if there is an issue with the independent strip command. * src/kill.c: Changes to call exit() in main. * src/readlink.c: Likewise. * src/shuf.c: Likewise. * src/timeout.c: Likewise. * src/truncate.c: Likewise.

2012-09-08maint: adjust ChangeLog to correct AuthorJim Meyering
* build-aux/git-log-fix: Add an entry to correct the Author: of v8.19-111-g51a4b04. It should be Ondrej Oprala, not me.
2012-09-01maint: fix one stray reference to src/Makefile.amStefano Lattarini
* build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh: In heading comments here.
2012-09-01build: don't use recursive make to build the 'src' subdirectoryStefano Lattarini
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove 'src'. Ensure '.' is listed before 'tests' and 'gnulib-tests'. (dist-hook): Adjust: we must now tweak the top-level Makefile.in in $(distdir), not the one in the 'src/' subdir (which is gone). (include): The '$(top_srcdir)/src/local.mk' file. * build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh: Adjust the generation of the automake input fragment. * tests/Makefile.am (.built-programs): Adjust. * cfg.mk (all_programs): Remove this convenience rule; it's no longer needed, now that we can rely directly on the contents of $(all_programs). (sc_option_desc_uppercase, check-programs-vs-x:): Adjust lists of prerequisites accordingly. (all-progs-but-lbracket): Simplify definition accordingly. * configure.ac ($OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS): Adjust definition. ($OPTIONAL_PKGLIB_PROGS): Likewise. ($NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT): Tweak definition, for consistency. (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove 'src/Makefile'. * src/Makefile.am: Rename ... * src/local.mk: ... like this, with a lot of adjustments. In addition ... (all_programs): ... remove this now-unneeded convenience target.
2012-09-01build: refactor how lists of coreutils programs are definedStefano Lattarini
This is in preparation of future changes. Still, this patch leaves the build system in a better shape; true, with more indirections, but also with less convoluted and brittle hacks. Unfortunately, this commit also makes some rebuild rules incomplete; that will son be fixed by follow-up patches. * build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh: New, generates autoconf and automake input fragments that define "lists" of all coreutils programs, with further distinctions about how and when these programs should be built (by default; if the system is capable enough; only if the user asks for them explicitly). This is useful to avoid duplicating the definitions of these lists among several files (at least 'configure.ac' 'src/Makefile.am'); such duplication had proved a source of inconsistencies and bugs in the past. And the pre-existing way to avoid such duplication, as implemented in 'configure.ac' before this patch, was overly complex and brittle. * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute the new script. * bootstrap.conf (bootstrap_post_import_hook): Run the new script to generate 'm4/cu-progs.m4' and 'src/cu-progs.mk'. * .gitignore: Ignore those files. * configure.ac: Include 'm4/cu-progs.m4', and decidedly simplify most of the program lists definition and processing accordingly. * src/Makefile.am: Similarly include 'src/cu-progs.mk', containing definition of variables $(default__progs), $(no_install__progs) and $(build_if_possible__progs). Accordingly ... (no_install__progs, build_if_possible__progs): ... remove. (EXTRA_DIST): Adjust definition. Adjust a comment.
2012-08-31maint: get rid of obsolete script 'cvsu'Stefano Lattarini
It was useful only back when coreutils used CVS as its version control system. * build-aux/cvsu: Delete. * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove it. * cfg.mk: Remove the two exemptions for this removed file.
2012-01-06maint: adjust ChangeLog to reflect earlier df requestJim Meyering
* build-aux/git-log-fix: Credit early reporter. * THANKS.in: Add a name.
2012-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2011-11-20maint: avoid gitlog-to-changelog diagnostic about unused entriesJim Meyering
* build-aux/git-log-fix: Comment out two unused entries. Each of those two entries does indicate an error in a commit log, but precedes the cut-off date, so has an actual VC'd ChangeLog entry. I.e., gitlog-to-changelog generates ChangeLog entries since 2008-02, and these two predate that. * ChangeLog-2008: Make the indicated correction.
2011-11-02maint: fix git-log typos when generating ChangeLogJim Meyering
* gnulib: Update to latest, for new gitlog-to-changelog. * Makefile.am (gen-ChangeLog): Use its new --amend=F option. * build-aux/git-log-fix: New file, with ChangeLog fixes.

Use this command: git ls-files | grep -v COPYING \ | xargs env UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=1 \ build-aux/update-copyright
2009-11-06build: move do-release-commit-and-tag to gnulibJim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add do-release-commit-and-tag. * build-aux/do-release-commit-and-tag: Remove file. Now it's in gnulib. * gnulib: Update submodule to the latest, to get the just-moved script.
2009-10-31admin: automate one more part of the release processJim Meyering
This script automates the process of updating NEWS, performs the resulting final commit (thus with a consistent log message), and applies a signed tag (v$VERSION) to the result. * build-aux/do-release-commit-and-tag: New script. * README-release: Document it.

2009-07-29maint: move update-copyright to gnulibJim Meyering
* build-aux/update-copyright: Remove file. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add update-copyright. * gnulib: Update submodule to latest.
2009-07-29maint: make update-copyright work in yet another caseJim Meyering
* build-aux/update-copyright: Handle the case in which "\n#" appears between the final year number and the copyright holder name. * m4/lib-check.m4: Update copyright year list. Reported by Joel E. Denny.
2009-07-29maint: update-copyright: fix just-introduced bugJim Meyering
* build-aux/update-copyright: ... and revert-for-now the change that made this script invoke localtime only once.
2009-07-29maint: make update-copyright handle more casesJim Meyering
* build-aux/update-copyright: Handle cases in which the final year number and copyright holder are on separate lines. Prompted by a report from Joel E. Denny. Also, do not invoke localtime for each line we process.
2009-06-27maint: add a rule to automate the annual copyright-year-update processJim Meyering
* build-aux/update-copyright: New file. * Makefile.am (changelog_etc): Add update-copyright. (update-copyright): New rule.
2009-06-23maint: update all Copyright year lists to include 2009Jim Meyering
2009-04-04maint: clean up Makefile.am, rename remaining ChangeLog filesJim Meyering
* Makefile.am (changelog_etc, syntax_check_exceptions): Define. (EXTRA_DIST): Use. Remove names that are now automatically included: build-aux/git-version-gen, build-aux/vc-list-files. * build-aux/ChangeLog-2007: Rename from */ChangeLog. * doc/ChangeLog-2007: Likewise. * lib/ChangeLog-2007: Likewise. * m4/ChangeLog-2007: Likewise. * po/ChangeLog-2007: Likewise.
2009-03-31build: use Automake's new parallel-tests featureRalf Wildenhues
* build-aux/check.mk: Remove, not needed any more. * tests/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Add parallel-tests and color-tests. * tests/check.mk: Do not include build-aux/check.mk any more. (SUFFIXES, TEST_LOGS): Remove. (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Use $$f rather than $$tst in $PERL invocation. * gnulib-tests/Makefile.am: Do not include build-aux/check.mk. (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): New macro, add parallel-test and color-tests. (TEST_LOGS): Remove.
2009-03-18maint: normalize leading-TAB indentation in MakefilesJim Meyering
* maint.mk (sc_makefile_TAB_only_indentation): New rule. Replace each TAB+8-space sequence with two TABs. * man/Makefile.am: Likewise. * build-aux/check.mk: Likewise. I used this command (run it more than once, if needed): t=$'\t'; git grep -l -E "$t {8}"|grep -E 'Makefile|\.mk$' \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/\t {8}/\t\t/'
2008-08-02tests: fix build-aux/check.mk for non-GNU makeRalf Wildenhues
* build-aux/check.mk ($(TEST_LOGS)) [!GNU_MAKE]: Check for a $(TESTS) test in the build dir, before one in srcdir. For details, see <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/14198>.
2008-06-14run gnulib-tests in parallelJim Meyering
* tests/Makefile.am: Define AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS, so check.mk can append. * tests/check.mk: Define SUFFIXES, so check.mk can append. * build-aux/check.mk (SUFFIXES): Append, so as not to evoke automake warning the prior definition in gnulib-tests/gnulib.mk. (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Likewise. * gnulib-tests/Makefile.am (TEST_LOGS): Define. Include build-aux/check.mk
2008-05-16tests: allow to run Perl tests more cleanlyJim Meyering
Before this change, perl tests were run via a #!/bin/sh script in which perl was invoked via $(PERL) ... -- - <<\EOF. That made some stty tests fail due to the way stdin was usurped. * build-aux/check.mk (am__check_pre): Don't append $(SHELL) to this nominally automake-internal variable. * tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Instead, define a shell function here, and append it to the more user-visible $(TESTS_ENVIRONMENT).
2008-05-06tests: save and restore TERM around use of TESTS_ENVIRONMENT,Jim Meyering
now that TESTS_ENVIRONMENT unsets it. * check.mk (am__check_pre): Save $TERM. (am__check_post): Restore saved value of TERM and export.
2008-04-27tests: remove temporary log file upon catchable signalJim Meyering
* check.mk (am__check_pre): Add signal handler to remove $@-t.
2008-02-10Use a better dirname emulation.Jim Meyering
* build-aux/check.mk (_dirname): Define. (am__check_pre): Use it.
2008-02-10Avoid test failure when run with risky PATH ("." before /usr/bin).Jim Meyering
* build-aux/check.mk (approx_dirname_filter): Define. (am__check_pre): Emulate dirname using sed. Report and suggested fix from Bruno Haible in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/12587/focus=12590

* tests/check.mk (vc_exe_in_TESTS): Remove t1 and t2 _first_, in case they exist beforehand and are not writable. * build-aux/check.mk (am__check_pre): Likewise, remove $@-t.
2007-11-30Define `tst', for CU_TEST_NAME.Ralf Wildenhues
* build-aux/check.mk (am__check_pre): Set `tst', for CU_TEST_NAME in tests/check.mk.
2007-11-16Port to Solaris 'make' and use a Posixish shell on Solaris.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gnu-make, posix-shell. * build-aux/check.mk (SHELL): Set to $(PREFERABLY_POSIX_SHELL), so that commands can assume Posix syntax. (ENABLE_HARD_ERRORS, TEST_LOGS): Don't use GNU Make's "?=" syntax. (SH_E_WORKAROUND): New macro. (am__check_pre, $(TEST_SUITE_LOG)): Use it. (am__check_pre): Fail if "mkdir" fails. Use $(SHELL) rather than relying on the "#!/bin/sh" in the file, so that tests can use Posix syntax. (am__check_pre, am__tty_colors): Use $$src rather than $$<, to support the Posix-make $(TEST_LOGS) rule. (%.log: %.test, %.log: %$(EXEEXT)): Remove unused inference rules that rely on a GNU Make extension and cause Solaris 'make' to fail. (SUFFIXES): New macro, so that we can use Posix style inference rules. (%.log: %): Use this rule only if GNU_MAKE. Set $$src so that macros can use $$src rather than $$<. (CHECK-FORCE, DEPENDENCY, $(TEST_LOGS)): New macros and rules, which rely only on Posix 'make' semantics, and are used only with non-GNU 'make' implementations. $(TEST_LOGS) invokes 'make' recursively (and a bit inefficiently) to simulate the GNU 'make' rules. (.log.html): Renamed from "%.html: %.log", so that it relies only on Posix 'make' semantics. (check-clean, .PHONY): Do not depend on check-clean-local, since Solaris 'make' complains about nonexistent rules like that. * src/Makefile.am (SUFFIXES): Remove; no longer needed. (groups): Use a specific rule rather than an inference rule that is only instantiated once. The inference-rule approach does not work with Solaris 'make', which gets confused by the "groups: Makefile" line. It's not clear from the Posix spec that Solaris 'make' is buggy here, so instead of worrying about it, rewrite the makefile so that it clearly conforms to Posix. * tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Export PACKAGE_BUGREPORT. GNU 'make' does this automatically for us, but Solaris 'make' doesn't. 2007-11-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
