* src/dd.c: Move is_nul() from here to ...
* src/system.h: ... here
* src/copy.c (sparse_copy): Adjust to use the refactored is_nul()
|

* src/timeout.c (usage): Document the exit status for this case,
in --help and thus in the man page. Word so that it covers
both the -s9 and -k options.
* doc/coreutils.texi (timeout invocation): Document the exit
status for this case.

Notes:
Small seeks are not coalesced to larger ones,
like is done in cache_round() for example.
conv= is used rather then oflag= for FreeBSD compatibility.
* src/dd.c (final_op_was_seek): A new global boolean to flag
whether the final "write" was converted to a seek.
(usage): Describe the new conf=sparse option.
(iwrite): Convert a write of a NUL block to a seek if requested.
(do_copy): Initialize the output buffer to have a sentinel,
to allow for efficient testing for NUL output blocks.
If the last block in the file was converted to a seek,
then convert back to a write so the size is updated.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* tests/dd/sparse: A new test for the feature.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.

Just divide the hard limits by 2. This matches the comments.

* src/ls.c (errno_unsupported): Remove EBUSY, as this caters for
the case where ACLs can't be accessed because the _file_ is locked.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2005-06/msg00191.html
Also ENOENT is not safe to include as you get that if the _file_
is removed between the stat() and subsequent querying of xattrs.
|
|
Like the optimization to avoid always-failing getfilecon calls,
this change avoids always-failing queries for whether a file has
a nontrivial ACL and for whether a file has certain "capabilities".
When such a query fails for one file (indicating no support), we know it
will always fail that way for the affected device. With this change, we
have thus eliminated nearly all failing-unsupported getxattr syscalls.
* src/ls.c (has_capability) [!HAVE_CAP]: Set errno to ENOTSUP.
(errno_unsupported): Expand the list of E* errno values to match
that of lib/acl-internal.h's ACL_NOT_WELL_SUPPORTED macro.
(file_has_acl_cache, has_capability_cache): New functions.
(gobble_file): Use them in place of non-caching ones.
* NEWS (Improvements): Mention it.
Suggested by Sven Breuner in
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.general/2187
While eliminating most getfilecon calls saved about 33%,
eliminating these other calls can save almost all of the
remaining ~67% cost, on some remote file systems.
|
|
On systems or file systems without SELinux support, all getfilecon
and lgetfilecon calls would fail due to lack of support. We can non-
invasively cache such failure (on most recently accessed device) and
avoid the vast majority of the failing underlying getxattr syscalls.
* src/ls.c (errno_unsupported): New function.
(selinux_challenged_device): New file-scoped global.
(getfilecon_cache, lgetfilecon_cache): New error-caching wrapper
functions.
(gobble_file): Use the caching wrappers, for when many *getfilecon
calls would fail with ENOTSUP or EOPNOTSUPP.

Allow changing the --numeric-suffixes start number
from the default of 0.
* src/split.c (next_file_name): Initialize the suffix index
and the output filename according to start value.
(main): Check that the suffix length is large enough for the
numerical suffix start value.
* doc/coreutils.texi (split invocation): Mention it.

* tests/split/numeric: New file. Test --numeric-suffixes[=FROM].

* doc/coreutils.texi (rm invocation): Mention that the -f option also
silences the message for missing operands, which is useful in scripts
e.g., for "rm -f $file_list" when $file_list is empty.

These edge cases were missed in the previous commit 140eca15c.
* src/dd.c (main): Include the bytes slop when truncating
without further I/O. Don't invalidate the whole file cache
in the case where 0 < count < ibs.
* tests/dd/bytes: Change to using the independent truncate
command to generate the file for comparison. Remove a redundant
test case and replace with one testing the truncation only logic.
|

dd now accepts the count_bytes and skip_bytes input flag and the
seek_bytes output flag, to more easily allow processing portions of a
file.
* src/dd.c (scanargs): Compute skip_records and skip_bytes when
'skip_bytes' iflag is used. Compute max_records and max_bytes when
'count_bytes' iflag is used. Compute seek_records and seek_bytes
when 'seek_bytes' oflag is used.
(skip_via_lseek): Use new 'bytes' parameter and handle potential
'records' equals to zero. Update the bytes parameter when called with
'fdesc' equal to STDOUT_FILENO. Update the header comments.
(dd_copy): Skip accordingly to skip_records AND skip_bytes. Count
accordingly to max_records AND max_bytes. Seek on output accordingly
to seek_records AND seek_bytes.
* NEWS (New features): Mention it.

* tests/dd/bytes: New file. Tests for these new flags.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

But only when both A and B were hard links to the same symlink.
* src/copy.c (same_file_ok): Handle another special case: the one
in which we are moving a symlink onto a hard link to itself.
In this case, we must explicitly tell the caller to unlink the
source file. Otherwise, at least the linux-3.x kernel rename
function would do nothing, as mandated by POSIX 2008.
* tests/mv/symlink-onto-hardlink-to-self: New test.

Normally, mv detects a few subtle cases in which proceeding with a
same-file rename would, with very high probability, cause data loss.
Here, we have found a corner case in which one of these same-inode
tests makes mv refuse to perform a useful operation. Permit that
corner case.

The previous commit introduced a couple of spacing issues,

Add a rule to ding any source file that has a continued string
with a word in the first column of the following line.
Those tend to trigger malfunction in tools that try to map an
arbitrary line number to an enclosing function name. Of course,
very many strings do precisely this, *when they are part of the

On systems with recent kernel/tools, a symlink from /etc/mtab to
/proc/mounts, and a by-UUID mount (i.e., soon, nearly everyone),
you will see something like the following when running "df -hT":
(this has been truncated to fit in a width-limited ChangeLog file)
Filesystem Type Siz...
rootfs rootfs 11G
udev devtmpfs 3.8G
tmpfs tmpfs 774M
/dev/disk/by-uuid/828fc648-9f30-43d8-a0b1-f7096a2edb66 ext4 11G
tmpfs tmpfs 1.6G
/dev/sda2 ext3 494M
/dev/sda5 ext4 12G
/dev/sda6 ext4 9.9G
Contrast that with what we're used to seeing (modulo the
two entries mounted on "/", which is a separate problem):
Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs rootfs 11G 1.9G 8.0G 19% /
udev devtmpfs 3.8G 0 3.8G 0% /dev
tmpfs tmpfs 774M 376K 774M 1% /run
/dev/sda3 ext4 11G 1.9G 8.0G 19% /
tmpfs tmpfs 1.6G 8.0K 1.6G 1% /run/shm
/dev/sda2 ext3 494M 78M 392M 17% /boot
/dev/sda5 ext4 12G 7.6G 3.7G 68% /usr
/dev/sda6 ext4 9.9G 6.6G 2.8G 71% /var
When that long /dev/disk/by-uuid/... name is merely a symlink
to a much shorter (and often more useful) device name like
"/dev/sda3", and when it's part of a listing of all file systems,
I would much prefer to see only the latter. Similarly, when using
an encrypted root file system, you would see a name like
/dev/mapper/luks-828fc648-9f30-43d8-a0b1-f7196a2edb66 pointing
to say, /dev/dm-0, I prefer the shorter name.
I.e., if I explicitly run
"df -hT /dev/disk/by-uuid/828fc648-9f30-43d8-a0b1-f7096a2edb66",
then, it's fine -- and expected -- to print to the long name.
It was explicitly given. However, with no non-option argument,
df should print the shorter name. Note that performing this
translation at a lower level (via a change to gnulib's mountlist.c)
would make it impossible to distinguish those two cases.
* src/df.c: Include "canonicalize.h".
(get_dev): Add a parameter, telling when we're in process-all-
mount-points mode; update all callers. When true, resolve
UUID-suffixed symlinks.

Before, we would use inotify in that case, which would work as long
as updates were taking place locally, but not at all when remote.
Move hard-coded list of known remote FS types into a more

Starting with commit adc30a83, when using --color, ls inhibited
interrupts to avoid corrupting the state of an output terminal.
However, for very large directories, that inhibition rendered ls
uninterruptible for too long, including a potentially long period
even before any output is generated.
* src/ls.c: Two phases of processing are time-consuming enough that
they can provoke this: the readdir loop and the printing loop. The
printing was supposed to be covered by a call to process_signals in
(print_name_with_quoting): ... but that call was mistakenly guarded
by a condition that might be false for many or even all files being
processed. Call process_signals unconditionally.
(print_dir): Also call process_signals in the readdir loop.
