2010-07-22provide POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL hint to appropriate utilsPádraig Brady
Following on from commit dae35bac, 01-03-2010, "sort: inform the system about our input access pattern" apply the same hint to all appropriate utils. This currently gives around a 5% speedup for reading large files from fast flash devices on GNU/Linux. * src/base64.c: Call fadvise (..., FADVISE_SEQUENTIAL); * src/cat.c: Likewise. * src/cksum.c: Likewise. * src/comm.c: Likewise. * src/cut.c: Likewise. * src/expand.c: Likewise. * src/fmt.c: Likewise. * src/fold.c: Likewise. * src/join.c: Likewise. * src/md5sum.c: Likewise. * src/nl.c: Likewise. * src/paste.c: Likewise. * src/pr.c: Likewise. * src/ptx.c: Likewise. * src/shuf.c: Likewise. * src/sum.c: Likewise. * src/tee.c: Likewise. * src/tr.c: Likewise. * src/tsort.c: Likewise. * src/unexpand.c: Likewise. * src/uniq.c: Likewise. * src/wc.c: Likewise, unless we don't actually read().
2010-05-31maint: make spacing around "=" consistent, even in IF_LINTJim Meyering
E.g., - size_t desired_width IF_LINT (= 0); + size_t desired_width IF_LINT ( = 0); Use this command: g grep -l IF_LINT | grep '\.[ch]$' \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/(IF_LINT \()= /$1 = /'
2010-05-31maint: replace each "for (;;)" with "while (true)"Jim Meyering
Run this command: git ls-files | grep '\.[ch]$' \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/for \(;;\)/while (true)/g' ...except for randint.c, which does not include stdbool.h. In that case, use "while (1)". * gl/lib/randint.c (randint_genmax): Use "while (1)" for infloops. * src/cat.c (simple_cat, cat): Use "while (true)" for infloops. * gl/lib/randread.c (readsource, readisaac): Likewise. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Likewise. * src/csplit.c (record_line_starts, process_regexp): Likewise. * src/cut.c (set_fields): Likewise. * src/dd.c (iread, parse_symbols): Likewise. * src/df.c (find_mount_point, main): Likewise. * src/du.c (main): Likewise. * src/expand.c (expand): Likewise. * src/factor.c (factor_using_division, do_stdin): Likewise. * src/fmt.c (get_space): Likewise. * src/ls.c (decode_switches): Likewise. * src/od.c (main): Likewise. * src/pr.c (main, read_line): Likewise. * src/shred.c (dopass, genpattern): Likewise. * src/sort.c (initbuf, fillbuf, getmonth, keycompare): Likewise. * src/split.c (bytes_split, lines_split): Likewise. * src/tac.c (tac_seekable): Likewise. * src/test.c (and, or): Likewise. * src/tr.c (squeeze_filter, main): Likewise. * src/tsort.c (search_item): Likewise. * src/unexpand.c (unexpand): Likewise. * src/uniq.c (main): Likewise. * src/yes.c (main): Likewise.

Use this command: git ls-files | grep -v COPYING \ | xargs env UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=1 \ build-aux/update-copyright
2009-09-21doc: mention the texinfo documentation in --helpPádraig Brady
* src/system.h: Rename emit_bug_reporting_address() to emit_ancillary_info() and update it to not print the translation project address in en_* locales, and _do_ print it in the 'C' (and other) locales so that it's included in the default man page. Also mention how to invoke the texinfo documentation for each command. Also move the "hard-locale.h" include to the 8 files that now use it. * man/help2man: Strip the newly added texinfo reference from the --help output as a more verbose version is already added by help2man. Suggestion from C de-Avillez
2009-08-25global: convert indentation-TABs to spacesJim Meyering
