* src/system.h (ST_NBLOCKS): Add space before paren.
|
|
* src/rm.c (usage): Update wording to make two points more
apparent: undelete is not trivial, and partial recovery should be
a consideration factor in deciding whether rm is secure enough.
Initially suggested by Reuben Thomas.
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (dist-hook): Do not mark this target
as PHONY, explicitly. Automake does it for us.
|
|
* src/ls.c (usage): Be more precise about how --escape (-b) works:
say "C-style escapes", not "octal escapes". Reported by Jacky Fong.

Based on a report from Kim Hansen who wanted to
send a KILL signal to the monitored command
when `timeout` itself received a termination signal.
Rather than changing such a signal into a KILL,
we provide the more general mechanism of sending
the KILL after the specified grace period.
* src/timeout.c (cleanup): If a non zero kill delay
is specified, (re)set the alarm to that delay, after
which a KILL signal will be sent to the process group.
(usage): Mention the new option. Separate the description
of DURATION since it's now specified in 2 places.
Clarify that the duration is an integer.
(parse_duration): A new function refactored from main(),
since this logic is now called for two parameters.
(main): Parse the -k option.
* doc/coreutils.texi (timeout invocation): Describe the
new --kill-after option and use @display rather than
@table to show the duration suffixes. Clarify that
a duration of 0 disables the associated timeout.
* tests/misc/timeout-parameters: Check invalid --kill-after.
* tests/misc/timeout: Check a valid --kill-after works.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
|
|
* src/remove.c (write_protected_non_symlink): If faccessat fails,
return 1 or -1 directly, rather than falling back on euidaccess*.
|
|
* src/sort.c: The units containing 'i' are actually IEC not SI.

Tell the system that we'll access input sequentially,
so that we more efficiently process uncached files in a few cases:
Reading from faster flash devices. E.g. 21 MB/s key:
NORMAL 31.6s (26.8 user)
SEQUENTIAL 27.7s
WILLNEED 27.7s
Processing in parallel with readahead when using a small 1M buffer:
NORMAL 24.7s (21.1 user)
SEQUENTIAL 22.7s
WILLNEED 25.6s
A small benefit when merging:
NORMAL 25.0s (16.9 user)
SEQUENTIAL 24.6s (16.6 user)
WILLNEED 38.4s (13.1 user)
Note WILLNEED is presented above for comparison to show it
has some unwanted characteristics due to its synchronous
prepopulation of the cache. It has a good benefit on a
mechanical disk @ 80MB/s and a multicore system with
competing processes:
NORMAL 14.73s
SEQUENTIAL 10.95s
WILLNEED 05.22s
However the scheduling differences causing this result
are probably best explicitly managed using `nice` etc.
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): check for posix_fadvise().
* src/sort.c (fadvise_input): A new function to apply
the POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL hint to an input stream.
(stream_open): Call the above function for all input streams.
|
|
* src/sort.c (char fold_toupper[]): Change to unsigned
so as the correct comparisons are made in getmonth().
This fixes unibyte locales where abbreviated months
have characters that are > 0x7F, but it also works for
multibyte locales with the caveat that multibyte characters
are matched case sensitively.
With this change, the following example sorts correctly:
$ echo -e "1 márta\n2 Feabhra" | LANG=ga_IE.utf8 sort -k2,2M
2 Feabhra
1 márta
* src/sort.c (inittables): Since we ignore blanks around months
in the input, don't include them when they're present in the locale.
With this change, the following example sorts correctly:
$ echo -e "1 2月\n2 1月" | LANG=ja_JP.utf8 sort -k2,2M
2 1月
1 2月
* tests/misc/sort-month: A new test to exercise the above cases.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
|
|
* src/expr.c (eval4, eval3): Clarify that expr expects integers,
and not the broader category of numbers.
* tests/misc/expr: Update test accordingly.
Suggested by Dan Jacobson.
|
|
* cfg.mk (sc_tight_scope): Pass the -s (silent) flag to `make`
so that it doesn't report about calling sub makes.
(sc_check-AUTHORS): Likewise.
(sc_strftime_check): Don't display stderr from `info`.
* src/Makefile.am (sc_tight_scope): Don't annotate with "GEN".
(sc_check-AUTHORS): Likewise.

Output the NORMAL attribute before non file name text.
This attribute will continue into file names that would
not otherwise be colored unless FILE is also set.
The regression was introduced with commit 483297d5, 28-02-2009,
"ls --color no longer outputs unnecessary escape sequences".
* src/ls.c (set_normal_color): A new function to output the
NORMAL attribute sequence if it's enabled.
(print_current_files): Output NORMAL before printing long format info.
(print_file_name_and_frills): Output NORMAL before printing file name.
(print_color_indicator): Reset the attributes before a file name with
attributes so that NORMAL attributes will not combine with them.
(print_name_with_quoting): Ensure attributes are reset after printing
the file name if NORMAL attributes were output.
* tests/ls/color-norm: A new test for NORMAL and FILE combinations.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

These checks were not being run as distcheck-hook targets
are only supported in the top-level Makefile. Instead
these tests are now run during a syntax-check.
* cfg.mk (sc_man_file_correlation): A new syntax check to
call the 2 existing tests to check the correlation between
the programs and man/*.[1x].
* man/Makefile.am (sc_man_file_correlation): Call the 2 existing
man page correlation tests.
(check-x-vs-1): Remove the "GEN" annotation as it's a bit verbose.
(check-programs-vs-x): Likewise.
* src/Makefile.am (all_programs.list): Exclude libstdbuf.so
from the list of programs. This issue was not noticed as
the checks were not actually being run.
|
|
* src/base64.c (usage): Don't capitalize the first character
in an --option description.
* src/stdbuf.c (usage): Likewise.
* src/truncate.c (usage): Likewise.
* cfg.mk (sc_option_desc_uppercase): A new syntax check to
stop this happening in future.
* man/Makefile.am (sc_option_desc_uppercase): Ensure all
man pages are generated, then search for erroneous uppercase chars.
* src/Makefile.am (all_programs): Ensure all
commands are built so that all man pages can be generated.
|
|
* src/remove.c: Don't include hash.h, hash-pjw.h or obstack.h.
They have been unused since the fts rewrite.
|
|
* src/join.c (usage): Mention "fields" rather than repeating "line"
so that it's more obvious that the fields are still parsed, and
thus -o is still honored for headers. Also remove an extraneous
'.' reported by Stéphane Raimbault.
* src/base64.c (usage): Remove extraneous blank line and order
the options alphabetically. Also remove an extraneous '.'
* src/chown.c (usage): Remove extraneous '.'
* src/cp.c (usage): Likewise.
* src/mktemp.c (usage): Likewise.
* src/pr.c (usage): Likewise.
* src/stat.c (usage): Likewise.
* src/uniq.c (usage): Likewise.
|
|
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): The comment about POSIXLY_CORRECT refers
only to cp, not to any other application that uses copy.c.

Previously passing an empty parameter to -t would
raise an error, but now it means to treat each line
as a single field for matching. This matches the
default operation of `sort` which is usually used
in conjunction with join.
* src/join.c (main): Set the field delimiter to '\n' if
an empty parameter is passed to -t.
(usage): Mention the operation of -t ''.
* tests/misc/join: Add 2 new tests, for the existing -t '\0'
and the new -t '' functionality.
* doc/coreutils.texi (join invocation): Mention that
join -t '' always operates on the whole line, while
join -t '\0' usually does.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

This essentially allows one to use --check-order with headings.
Note join without --check-order will already handle the common case
where headings do match in each file, however using --check-order will fail
often when the header sorts after the first line of data.
Note also that this will join header lines from each file even if
they don't match, with headings from the first file being used.
* NEWS: Mention the new option.
* doc/coreutils.texi (join invocation): Describe the new option.
* src/join.c (usage): Likewise.
(join): Join the header lines unconditionally.
* tests/misc/join: Add 5 new tests.
|
|
* src/join.c (join): Refactor the code that checks for misorder
at the tail of the files. The most significant change here is
that freeline() is called thus silencing a valgrind warning about
a definite but inconsequential memory leak.
(freeline): Make more general by doing nothing when passed NULL,
and setting freed pointers to NULL.
|
|
* src/ls.c (main): With --color, avoid emitting the final color-
resetting escape sequence when it would be a no-op.
* tests/ls/color-clear-to-eol: Adjust expected output accordingly.
* tests/ls/color-dtype-dir: Likewise.
* tests/ls/multihardlink: Likewise.
* tests/ls/stat-free-symlinks: Likewise.
* tests/misc/ls-misc: Likewise.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention it.
C de-Avillez rebased and adapted four of the new sl-dangle*
tests in tests/misc/ls-misc.

Enabled when coreutils is configured with --with-tty-group.
Based on a patch written by Piotr Gackiewicz. Details at
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/454261
* src/who.c (is_tty_writable): A new function returning true if a TTY
device is writable by the group. Additionally it checks the group to be
the same as TTY_GROUP_NAME when compiled with --with-tty-group.
* m4/jm-macros.m4: Introduce a new configure option --with-tty-group.
* NEWS: Mention the change.
|
|
* src/libstdbuf.c (apply_mode): Don't leak "buf" upon setvbuf failure.
|
|
* src/pr.c (init_store_cols): Allocate N*sizeof(*VAR) bytes,
not N*sizeof(int*). The latter would mistakenly allocate double
the required space on a system with 8-byte pointers.
|
|
* src/ls.c: Include <sys/capability.h> later, to avoid build
failure with a header from libcap-2.16-1 or earlier.
See http://bugzilla.redhat.com/483548 for details.

Before this change, with too long a file name, the name would
abut the date field on the left and possibly also the "Page N"
field on the right, rather than leaving a one-space separator
in each case. Fixes a regression introduced on Mar 6 2009,
by commit a4053c5291d5797734b3e4f042f9e1adf3944fd6
* src/pr.c (print_header): Ensure that there is at least one
space before and after the file name part of the header line.
* NEWS: Mention it.
* tests/pr/W20l24f-ll: s/xPage/ x Page/.
* THANKS: Update.

|
* src/tac.c (main): Free the input buffer in most cases.
|
|
* src/cp.c (make_dir_parents_private): Use "||" rather than "|",
so that clang understands there is no undefined pointer dereference.
|
|
* src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): When using 'LINK target' in
dircolors, treat broken symlink as C_ORPHAN.
* tests/misc/ls-misc (sl-dangle2, sl-dangle3, sl-dangle4)
(sl-dangle5): Test for it, and add more coverage.
* NEWS: Document it.
* THANKS: Update.

* src/df.c (print_header): Use fputs rather than printf in more places.
Suggested by Eric Blake.
|
|
Use this command:
git ls-files | grep -v COPYING \
| xargs env UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=1 \
build-aux/update-copyright
|
|
* src/pr.c (usage): Add missing space.
|
|
* src/pr.c (usage): Move the newline character a bit farther.
|
|
* src/df.c (print_header): Add a comment telling translators to
retain the message length, and another to align header translations.
|
|
* src/tail.c (usage): Reword tail -F description, so that it no
longer mentions details specific to the non-inotify implementation.
Also, join diagnostic strings (while staying under the 509-byte limit)
to ease formatting of translations. The latter was prompted by
a report from Stéphane Raimbault.
* doc/coreutils.texi (tail invocation): Update description here, too.
|
|
This fixes a bug whereby tail -F would fail to track changes
to a file that was a target of a rename, and when the source of
the rename was another tailed file.
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Ensure the wd is not already
present in the hash table before trying to add it. When a new watch
descriptor is added to the `wd_to_name' hash table, check that it is
not already present. If it is present then remove the previous element.
|
|
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Avoid modifying fdspec->wd while
it is in the wd_to_name hash table. Once it is removed, it can be
added using the new `wd' as key for the hash table. This fixes the
abort-inducing bug reported by Rob Wortman in
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/19372
|
|
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): s/wd_table/wd_to_name/
|
|
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Do not use f[i] in a context
where i may be larger than the largest valid index. In the final
"if" clause in which we'd remove an inotify watch, we might have
used f[n_files]. Use fspec instead, since it is guaranteed to
be defined.
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (tac_LDADD): Add LIB_GETHRXTIME.
* THANKS: Update.
Reported by Robert Schwebel.
|
|
* tail.c (struct File_spec): Rearrange struct members to decrease
size by 8 bytes to 76,96 on i686,x86_64 respectively.
|
|
* src/tail.c (fremote): Add a comment.
Move definition "up" to precede first use, so we can
remove its prototype and the #if..#endif around each use.
(any_remote_file): Rename from any_remote_files.
|
|
* src/tail.c (struct File_spec): Add a flag to record if file is remote.
(recheck): If we're using inotify then check if the file has gone remote
and if so, drop it with a warning.
(any_remote_files): A new function to check for any open remote files.
(tailable_stdin): A new function to refactor the check for whether
a tailable file was specified through stdin.
(fremote): A new function to check if a file descriptor
refers to a remote file.
(tail_forever_inotify): Add some comments.
(tail_file): Record if a file is remote when initially opened.
(main): Disable inotify if any remote files specified.
Also document the caveat about remounted files not
being noticed by inotify.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
|
|
* src/wc.c (main): Set stdout to line buffered mode
to ensure parallel running instances don't intersperse
their output. This adds 6.5% to the run time in the worst case
of many zero length files, but has neglible impact for
standard sized files.
* tests/misc/wc-parallel: New test for atomic output.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference it.
* NEWS: Mention the fix
This is similar to commit 710fe413, 20-10-2009,
"md5sum, sha*sum, sum: line-buffer the printed checksums"
|
|
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add k-afs, gfs/gfs2 and ocfs2.
* NEWS: Update the stat -f entry.
|
|
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add the following FS types:
fuseblk, rpc_pipefs. Also fix a typo of minux3 to minix3,
and mention the fs-magic-compare make target to help update the list.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Reference the additional
info about filevercmp rather than the unused strverscmp.
(Details about version sort): Add some examples that are not
handled well by fileversmp.
* src/ls.c: Change a comment referencing the now unused strverscmp.
|
|
* src/remove.c (rm_fts): Fix incorrect comparison of
device and inode numbers.
* tests/rm/one-file-system2: Add a separate test so
that it can be run as a normal user (It doesn't need to mount).
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference it.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
