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.
(mv invocation): Likewise.
(install invocation): Likewise.
(mkfifo invocation): Likewise.
(mknod invocation): Likewise.
(mkdir invocation): Likewise.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature and change in behavior.

* 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.
* tests/local.mk (all_tests): Reference the above new test.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the change.

src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use rmdir() rather than unlink()
when the source is a directory, so that empty directories
are replaced in the destination as per POSIX.

cp --no-preserve=mode exited 1 unconditionally. Furthermore,
the tests which would have detected this error - namely
link-preserve.sh and reserve-mode.sh - failed to test
cp's exit code.

Normally, mv detects a few subtle cases in which proceeding with a
same-file rename would, with very high probability, cause data loss.

corner case.

* src/copy.c (copy_internal): With --update (-u), this function would
return early once it found that the destination is not older than the
source, *without* recording the source-dev/ino--to--dest_name mapping.
That mapping is required in order to preserve src hard links in the
destination tree, so when using cp with --update and --preserve=links
(perhaps via -p or -a), cp could fail to preserve one hard link
per inode when at least one of the hard-linked names already exists
in the destination tree.

argument list is erroneous. Use quote_n, instead.

* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Upon btrfs clone failure, print not just
the destination file name, but also the source file name.
That may be useful upon failure of a cross-device clone attempt.

to avoid the expense of extent_copy's unconditional use of
FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Do not attempt extent_copy on a file
that appears to have no holes.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Document this. At first I labeled this
as a bug fix, but that would be inaccurate, considering there is no
documentation of FIEMAP semantics, nor even consensus among kernel
FS developers. Here's hoping SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA support will soon
make it into the linux kernel.
|

* src/copy.c (HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLOCKS): Define to 0 if undefined,
so we can use it in the return expression, here:
(is_probably_sparse): New function, factored out of...
(copy_reg): ...here. Use the new function.
|
|
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Do not treat "unwritten extents" specially.
Otherwise, with a release-candidate 2.6.39-rc3 kernel, XFS or ext4,
when using gold as your linker, and if you forget to run "make check",
you could end up installing files full of zeros instead of the expected
binaries. For a lot of discussion, see
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.xfs.general/37895
* tests/cp/fiemap-empty: Disable this test.
|
|
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Free the extents array when
sparse_copy() fails.
|
|
When running the erroneous command, cp -rl A D D, and depending on the
structure of directories A and D and the file system type (because that
changes order of dir. entry traversal), cp would sometimes fail to
detect that D was being copied into D, and would create D/D/D/D/D/...
until it hit PATH_MAX or exhausted some resource.
I noticed this via the occasional failure of the cp/into-self test
when run using a ZFS file system. It is occasional because the bug
is dependent on the order in which directory entries are traversed,
and that is apparently indeterminate with ZFS.
Technically, with the current recursive implementation, there is no
risk of an infinite loop, due to stack limitations, but with an
eventual fts-based implementation, it might have iterated until
disk space or inodes are exhausted.
* src/copy.c (copy_dir): Avoid copy-into-self interminable loop on
systems with large PATH_MAX. On other systems, diagnose the copy-into-
self error consistently. Handle the parameter,
first_dir_created_per_command_line_arg, correctly when there are two
or more sub-directories.
|
|
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Treat an allocated but empty extent
much like a hole. I.E. don't read data we know is going to be NUL.
Also we convert the empty extent to a hole only when SPARSE_ALWAYS
so that the source and dest have the same allocation. This will
be improved soon, when we use fallocate() to do the allocation.
* tests/cp/fiemap-empty: A new test for efficiency and correctness
of copying empty extents.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

This bug was introduced in commit ca9e212c, 2009-09-24,
"cp, mv: use linkat to guarantee semantics", which
inadvertently disabled the creation of hardlinks to symlinks.
However rather than implementing the intention of that commit
and relying on gnulib linkat emulation, we'll revert to the
previous emulation as that maintains ownership and timestamps.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use our existing hardlink to
symlink emulation when link() might dereference the symlink.
Also ensure that we copy the timestamps of the original symlink
when we use the emulation.
* tests/cp/link-symlink: Add a test to ensure timestamps copied.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

Don't depend on heuristics to detect sparse files
if fiemap is available. Also don't scan for new
holes unless --sparse=always has been specified.
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Pass the user specified
sparse mode, and handle as described above.
|
|
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Suppress redundant lseek()s in both
the source and dest files, when there is no hole between extents.
|
|
Upon failed lseek, sparse_copy_finalize would mistakenly return true.
Admittedly, that is very unlikely, since that particular lseek
is attempted only if the preceding call to sparse_copy induced
a hole at EOF (via lseek on the destination FD). However, now
that sparse_copy has an output parameter, N_READ, there is no
longer any reason to call lseek (fd, 0, SEEK_CUR), so...
* src/copy.c (sparse_copy_finalize): Remove the function.
(copy_reg): Call ftruncate with n_read, rather than
sparse_copy_finalize with its now-unnecessary lseek.
Lasse Collin spotted the bug in sparse_copy_finalize.
|
|
* src/copy.c (write_zeros): This bug caused 4 or 8 bytes to
be written at a time which is very inefficient. One could
trigger the issue with `cp --sparse=never sparse non-sparse`
on a file system that supports fiemap.
|
|
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Otherwise it would be used uninitialized.
|
|
The recent FIEMAP-related changes made it so the unusual case of
copying a sparse file to a non-regular destination (e.g., a pipe)
would erroneously write one byte too many to that destination.
That happened because extent_copy assumed that it could use lseek
to obtain the number of bytes written to the output file descriptor.
That was valid only for regular files.
* src/copy.c (sparse_copy): Add a parameter, to be used by extent_copy,
but not by reg_copy. Adjust callers.
(extent_copy): Maintain new local, dest_pos, using new arg, n_read.
Don't call lseek on dest_fd; use new var, dest_pos, instead.
(copy_reg): Add unused arg.
|
|
* src/copy.c: Don't include "fiemap.h".
|
|
Don't use "#ifdef EINTR". dd.c has been doing that since 2004.
* src/copy.c (sparse_copy): Remove #ifdef...#endif around EINTR use.
* src/tee.c (tee_files): Remove #ifdef...#endif around EINTR use.
If we need it, add something like this in system.h:
/* When EINTR is not defined, define it to an improbable value
so that each use does not have to be #ifdef'd. */
#ifndef EINTR
# define EINTR 999988
#endif
|
|
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Before this change, extent_copy would fail
to create holes, thus breaking --sparse=auto and --sparse=always.
I.e., copying a large enough file of all zeros, cp --sparse=always
should introduce a hole, but with extent_copy, it would not.
|
|
* src/copy.c (sparse_copy): Remove now-obsolete comment about
how we used to work around lack of ftruncate. Combine nested
if conditions into one.
|
|
we're going to have to use it from within extent_copy, too.
* src/copy.c (sparse_copy): New function, factored out of...
(copy_reg): ...here.
Remove now-unused locals.
