2015-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesPádraig Brady
Run "make update-copyright" and then... * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year. * tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle-v2.sh: Fix case in copyright message, so that year is updated automatically in future.
2014-09-19doc: output correct --help references with --program-prefixPádraig Brady
* src/system.h (emit_ancillary_info): Take the invariant PROGRAM_NAME as a parameter, so that consistent references are made to online docs and texinfo nodes, when a --program-prefix is in place. Note the man pages don't need this fix as they're generated before the program prefix is used. * NEWS: Mention the improvements in references to online documentation.

2014-07-01maint: fix const correctness warnings with security_context_tPádraig Brady
The security_context_t type was always an artificial separation from a standard char* string, and various libselinux using code assumed both were synonymous. In addition, prior to libselinux 2.3 function declarations were incorrect wrt constness of this type. Here we replace security_context_t with char*, and also provide a wrapper function to cater for the const issue on older libselinux. * src/system.h (se_const): A new function to avoid and identify the const issue on older libselinux. * src/copy.c: s/security_context_t/char */. * src/cp.c: Likewise. * src/id.c: Likewise. * src/install.c: Likewise. * src/ls.c: Likewise. * src/mkdir.c: Likewise. * src/mkfifo.c: Likewise. * src/mknod.c: Likewise. * src/runcon.c: Likewise. * src/selinux.c: Likewise. * tests/cp/no-ctx.sh: Likewise. * src/chcon.c: Likesize.
2014-06-11install: allow options -D and -t to be used togetherBernhard Voelker
* src/install.c (install_file_in_file_parents): Factor out the creation of any parent directories into ... (mkancesdirs_safe_wd): ... this new function. (install_file_in_dir): Add the parameter 'mkdir_and_install', and call the above new function if it evaluates to true. (main): During parsing of the -t option, move the check whether the target_directory exists down after the option parsing loop, and do not complain about stat(optarg,...) failing if -D was given. Pass 'mkdir_and_install' to install_file_in_dir(). * doc/coreutils.texi (install invocation): Remove the (false) restriction that -D would be ignored together with -t. Instead, clarify install's new bahavior. Fix the node's reference in the top-level @direntry for consistency. * src/install/basic-1.sh: Add tests for the now-allowed combination of the -D and -t options. * NEWS: Mention the improvement.
2014-04-09doc: clarify in --help that -Z doesn't take an argumentPádraig Brady
* NEWS: Fix a confusing old entry. * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Adjust accordingly. * src/cp.c (usage): Separate the -Z and --context descriptions. * src/install.c: Likewise. * src/mkdir.c: Likewise. * src/mkfifo.c: Likewise. * src/mknod.c: Likewise. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/17220
2014-01-02maint: update all copyright year number rangesBernhard Voelker
Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this, perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test to make that one script use the single most recent year number.
2013-11-27selinux: adjust utils to run restorecon with -ZPádraig Brady
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.
2013-02-22install: cleanup properly if the strip program failed for any reasonOndrej Oprala
* src/install.c (strip): Indicate failure with a return code instead of terminating the program. (install_file_in_file): Handle strip's return code and unlink the created file if necessary. * tests/install/strip-program.sh: Add a test to cover the changes. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention the fix. Reported by John Reiser in http://bugzilla.redhat.com/632444.
2013-02-06maint: improve error messages upon failed read, write, access, closeBenno Schulenberg
Note we use "failed to {access,close}" for those single operations, and "error {read,writ}ing" for those partial operation failures. * src/copy.c: Improve error messages for failing read, write and close. * src/cp.c: Improve error messages for failing access. * src/dd.c: Improve error messages for failing read, write and open. * src/head.c: Improve error message for failing close. * src/install.c: Improve error messages for failing access. * src/ln.c: Likewise. * src/mv.c: Likewise. * src/touch.c: Improve error message for failing close. * src/truncate.c: Likewise.
2013-01-23maint: define usage note about mandatory args centrallyBernhard Voelker
Each program with at least one long option which is marked as 'required_argument' and which has also a short option for that option, should print a note about mandatory arguments. Define that well-known note centrally and use it rather than literal printf/fputs, and add it where it was missing. * src/system.h (emit_mandatory_arg_note): Add new function. * src/cp.c (usage): Use it rather than literal printf/fputs. * src/csplit.c, src/cut.c, src/date.c, src/df.c, src/du.c: * src/expand.c, src/fmt.c, src/fold.c, src/head.c, src/install.c: * src/kill.c, src/ln.c, src/ls.c, src/mkdir.c, src/mkfifo.c: * src/mknod.c, src/mv.c, src/nl.c, src/od.c, src/paste.c: * src/pr.c, src/ptx.c, src/shred.c, src/shuf.c, src/sort.c: * src/split.c, src/stdbuf.c, src/tac.c, src/tail.c, src/timeout.c: * src/touch.c, src/truncate.c, src/unexpand.c, src/uniq.c: Likewise. * src/base64.c (usage): Add call of the above new function because at least one long option has a required argument. * src/basename.c, src/chcon.c, src/date.c, src/env.c: * src/nice.c, src/runcon.c, src/seq.c, src/stat.c, src/stty.c: Likewise.
2013-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this, perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test to make that one script use the single most recent year number.
2012-09-28cp: fix the --no-preserve=mode optionOndrej Oprala
The --no-preserve=mode option did not do what its name implies: it would mistakenly preserve permission mode bits. * NEWS: Mention the fix. * TODO: Remove an entry. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Add a condition to properly handle the --no-preserve=mode option for files (copy_internal): Add a condition to properly handle the --no-preserve=mode option for directories. * src/copy.h (struct cp_options): Add a new boolean. * src/cp.c (cp_option_init,decode_preserve_arg): Set the new boolean value according to specified options. * src/install.c (struct cp_options): Initialize the new boolean. * src/mv.c (struct cp_options): Initialize the new boolean. * tests/cp/preserve-mode.sh: Add a new test. * tests/cp/link-preserve.sh (-a --no-preserve=mode): Adjust the expected perms: now, --no-preserve=mode overrides the --preserve=mode that is inherent in -a, as it should. * tests/local.mk: Add the new test to the list.
2012-05-02maint: with split lines, don't leave an operator at end of lineJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Split an expression before a binary operator, not after it. * src/cut.c (set_fields): Likewise. * src/id.c (main): Likewise. * src/install.c (setdefaultfilecon): Likewise. * src/join.c (ignore_case): Likewise. * src/pr.c (cols_ready_to_print, init_parameters, print_page): Likewise. * src/stty.c (set_window_size): Likewise. * src/wc.c (SUPPORT_OLD_MBRTOWC): Likewise. * src/who.c (scan_entries): Likewise. * src/test.c (binary_operator): Join a split line. * src/extent-scan.c (extent_scan_read): Move an ">" from end of line to beginning of the following. Likewise for two other expressions.

2010-10-13install: avoid warning with Solaris 10 ccPaul Eggert
* src/install.c (extra_mode): Don't assign ~S_IRWXUGO & ~S_IFMT to a mode_t variable, as the number might be too big to fit. Solaris 10 cc warns about this, and the C standard says it has undefined behavior.

2009-09-23maint: Use logical rather than bitwise operators on boolsPádraig Brady
This is because bitwise operators are: - confusing and inconsistent in a boolean context - non short circuiting - brittle in C89 where bool can be an int (so > 1)
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

2009-08-20install: avoid a portability bug when compiling with non-gccJim Meyering
* src/install.c (extra_mode): Be careful to return only a 0 or 1 value, since this is a "bool" function, and there are still some compilers for which this is necessary. Without this change, Bernhard Voelker reported that the Forte Developer 7 C 5.4 2002/03/09 compiler would produce a malfunctioning "install" binary. Details in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/17710/focus=17760

2008-06-16remove redundant const directivesJim Meyering
In 1463824d8e7f72c31f1d803d7cfe2b608ccafc5c, I added some missing "const" directives, as well as some new, redundant ones. This removes the redundant ones. Pointed out by Eric Blake. * base64.c, cat.c, chcon.c, chgrp.c, chmod.c, chown.c, comm.c: * cp.c, csplit.c, cut.c, date.c, dd.c, df.c, dircolors.c, du.c: * env.c, expand.c, fmt.c, fold.c, groups.c, head.c, id.c: * install.c, join.c, kill.c, ln.c, ls.c, md5sum.c, mkdir.c: * mkfifo.c, mknod.c, mktemp.c, mv.c, nice.c, nl.c, od.c: * paste.c, pathchk.c, pinky.c, pr.c, ptx.c, readlink.c, rm.c: * rmdir.c, runcon.c, seq.c, shred.c, shuf.c, sort.c, split.c: * stat.c, stty.c, su.c, sum.c, tac.c, tail.c, tee.c, timeout.c: * touch.c, tr.c, truncate.c, tty.c, uname.c, unexpand.c, uniq.c: * wc.c, who.c: Remove redundant const directives. * maint.mk (sc_const_long_option): Don't require redundant "const".
