* src/dd.c (dd_copy) [C_UNBLOCK]: Always print the final newline for
non-empty output, not just when output size is a multiple of cbs.
* doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation) [conv=unblock]: Mention that dd
prints a newline after each output record, not just when replacing
trailing spaces.
Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
* tests/dd/unblock: New file. Test for this.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

* src/tail.c (main): Adapt piped-stdin test to use the same isapipe,
test as was used in the preceding POSIXLY_CORRECT condition.
Remove the now-subsumed POSIXLY_CORRECT test.
Reported by Pádraig Brady.
* doc/coreutils.texi (tail invocation): Document this change.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Reclassify, clarify.
|
|
* src/tail.c (record_open_fd): Initialize "->ignore" to false, not 0.
|
|
* src/tail.c (main): Tailing a pipe "forever" is not useful,
and POSIX specifies that tail ignore the -f when there is no
file argument and stdin is a FIFO or pipe. So we do that.
In addition, GNU tail excludes "-" arguments from the list of files
to tail forever, when the associated file descriptor is connected
to a FIFO or pipe. Before this change, ":|tail -f" would hang.
Reported by Ren Yang and Ulrich Drepper.
* tests/tail-2/pipe-f: Test for this.
* tests/tail-2/pipe-f2: Ensure tail doesn't exit early for a fifo.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add these tests.
* NEWS (POSIX conformance): Mention it.
|
|
* src/tail.c (main): Adjust today's change to honor the
F[i].ignore flag that may have been set in tail_file.
|
|
* src/tail.c (main) [HAVE_INOTIFY]: When stdin (i.e., "-", or no args,
but not /dev/stdin) is specified on the command line, don't use inotify.
Reported by Bill Brelsford in <http://bugs.debian.org/545422>.
* tests/tail-2/follow-stdin: New file. Test for this.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add the test.

This bug was introduced in coreutils-7.5 via commit ae494d4b,
2009-06-02, "tail: use inotify if it is available".
|
|
* src/tail.c (main): Flush any output from tail_file,
before calling tail_forever_inotify, which can block.
* tests/tail-2/flush-initial: New file. Test for the bug.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add tail-2/flush-initial.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
This bug was introduced in coreutils-7.5 via commit ae494d4b,

as "approximately 5 seconds" for approximately 5 seconds.
|
|
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Remove tabs erroneously added
in commit 3346c0af.

entry with #ifdef. Required for GNU/kFreeBSD.
Reported by Petr Salinger in http://bugs.debian.org/520368.

* src/ln.c (ENABLE_HARD_LINK_TO_SYMLINK_WARNING): Delete.
(do_link): Update comments per POSIX; add FIXME for -L, -P.
|
|
* gnulib: Update to latest gnulib.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Adjust comment in light of POSIX
2008, and deal with macro now being tri-state.
|
|
* src/df.c (main): If open or fstat fails when we're trying to ensure
that all arg-partitions are automounted, fall back on using stat.
Inspired by the report and patch from Olivier Fourdan in
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/520630.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* tests/df/unreadable: New test for the above.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add df/unreadable.
The bug was introduced in coreutils-7.3 via commit dbd17157,
2009-04-28, "df: use open(2), not stat, to trigger automounting".
|
|
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't return from the function after an
unsuccessful and required preservation of extended attributes.
This resulted in leaking the copy buffer and file descriptors.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention the fix.
The bug was introduced in coreutils-7.1 via commit 0889381c, 2009-01-23,
"cp/mv: add xattr support".

* src/du.c (du_files): Don't fail silently upon fts_close failure.
* src/chcon.c (process_files): Likewise.
* src/chmod.c (process_files): Likewise.
* src/chown-core.c (chown_files): Likewise.
|

This is probably never visible, but who knows...
* src/chcon.c (process_files): Don't ignore fts_close failure.
* src/chmod.c (process_files): Likewise.
* src/chown-core.c (chown_files): Likewise.
* src/du.c (du_files): Likewise.
|

* src/chown-core.c: Include "ignore-value.h".
(change_file_owner): Don't set "ent" only to ignore it.
* src/chcon.c (process_file): Likewise.
* src/chmod.c: Include "ignore-value.h".
(process_file): Don't set "ent" only to ignore it.
After diagnosing root-dev/ino failure, return false immediately:
Now that we don't set "ent" we must be sure not to use it uninitialized,
and there's no point in issuing --verbose-related output in this case.

|
* src/shred.c (genpattern): Value stored to "n" is never used.
|
|
* src/dd.c (skip): Remove set-but-never-used variable, soffset.
|
|
* src/tail.c (tail_bytes): Don't compute "diff" twice.
|
|
* src/timeout.c (main): While keeping argc and argv in
sync may be marginally useful, it is redundant to update argc,
so just remove that to suppress the clang warning.
|
|
* src/timeout.c (main): Handle all possible cases of unexpected
failures from wait(). This was prompted by the clang tool reporting
the possible non-initialization of the status variable.

On most unix- and linux-based kernels, ls -i DIR_CONTAINING_MOUNT_POINT
would print the wrong inode number for any entry that is a mount point.
It would do that by relying on readdir's dirent.d_ino values, while
most readdir implementations return the inode number of the underlying,
inaccessible directory. Thus, it is not consistent with what you'd
get when applying stat to the same entry. This bug led to surprising
results like "ls -i" and "ls -i --color" printing different numbers (ls
must usually "stat" a file to colorize its name). This change makes it
so that on offending systems, ls must stat non-command-line-arguments
for which otherwise it would be able to use "for free" dirent.d_ino
values. Regardless of this change, ls is already required to stat every
command-line argument. Note: versions of GNU ls prior to coreutils-6.0
did not perform the invalid optimization, and hence always printed
correct inode numbers. Thus, for the sake of correctness, ls -i is
forgoing the readdir optimization, for any kernel (including linux!)
with POSIX-nonconforming readdir. Note that currently, only Cygwin has
been agile enough to conform.
* src/ls.c (RELIABLE_D_INO): Define.
(print_dir): Use it.
For plenty of discussion, see this long thread:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/14020
This bug was introduced by the 2006-02-26 commit, 33eb3efe:
"In ls, avoid calling stat for --inode (-i), when possible."
* tests/ls/readdir-mountpoint-inode: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Don't suppress failure of this test,
now that ls -i is fixed. Though note that it doesn't test well,
since it compares only the always-stat'd command-line arguments.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

...when run on a kernel older than what was implied by headers and
libraries tested at configure time.
* src/copy.c (utimens_symlink): Ignore failure when errno == ENOSYS.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
Reported by Todd Zullinger and Kamil Dudka.

* 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

Now that "make check" no longer builds programs like arch, ...
* src/Makefile.am (dist-hook): Depend on $(all_programs), so that the
subsequent build in man/ doesn't fail due to lack of a program like
arch that is not going to be installed.
|
|
* NEWS: Mention the change.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Document the new --line-increment option.
* src/nl.c (struct option): Add --line-increment,
(usage): Describe it,
(main): Use it.
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (check): Don't depend on check-AUTHORS.
That check fails on systems for which a program like stdbuf is
not built. Instead, move this check to "make syntax-check".
(sc_check-AUTHORS): Rename rule from check-AUTHORS.
* cfg.mk (sc_check-AUTHORS): New rule.
Reported by Berhnard Voelker.
|
|
* src/sort.c (find_unit_order): Spell out 256-element static
initializer, rather than relying on C99 syntax.
Required for Forte Developer 7 C 5.4 2002/03/09 on Solaris 10.
Reported by Bernhard Voelker.
|
|
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): On systems without utimensat don't
use utimens on a symlink, as that would dereference the symlink.
* tests/cp/abuse: To work around possible attribute preservation
failures breaking the test, use cp -dR rather than cp -a.
|
|
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Remove the redundant and
incorrect error check of the return from inotify_add_watch().
Also initialize the wd member of each File_spec to an invalid value.
Reported by C de-Avillez.
|
|
* src/dd.c (main): Install the signal handlers at startup
rather than just before the copy starts. In this way signals
received before the copy (like during a slow truncate for e.g.)
will be deferred and handled consistently.
* THANKS: Add Bernhard's email address.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
Reported by Bernhard Voelker.
