* src/test.c: Add pragma to suppress gcc-4.6.2's warning that
"advance" might be candidate for attribute 'pure'.
|
|
* src/tail.c (start_lines): Do not form potentially-invalid address.
Use safe_read's return value as a pointer offset only after
ensuring that it is not SAFE_READ_ERROR (size_t)(-1).
Spotted by coverity.
Also, move declaration of "p" to be closer to first use.
|
|
* src/chgrp.c (usage): Group associated options together,
to aid users. Also minimize the differences between
individual messages across these four commands, to
aid translators.
* src/chmod.c: Likewise.
* src/chown.c: Likewise.
* src/chcon.c (usage): Likewise. Document the
--dereference option.

* src/stat.c (human_fstype) [S_MAGIC_PIPEFS]: New case.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention this.
|
|
* src/stat.c (usage): Mention "file system type", not just "type"
for %t and %T. Do not capitalize the first letter of each description.

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
maintainable table in stat.c, alongside the list of FS
names and magic numbers. Generate a new is_local_fs_type function.
* src/Makefile.am (fs-is-local.h): New rule, generated file.
* src/extract-magic: Revamp to parse local/remote keyword after
each magic number in src/stat.c's case statements.
Accept new --local option.
* src/.gitignore: Ignore the generated fs-is-local.h.
* src/tail.c [HAVE_INOTIFY]: Include fs-is-local.h.
(fremote) [HAVE_INOTIFY]: Use the new function in place of
the switch stmt with hard-coded list of FS types.
Emit a warning when processing a file on a file system of unknown type.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention it.
Suggested by Sven Breuner.

|
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add a case: fhgfs, 0x19830326.
* src/tail.c (fremote): Add S_MAGIC_FHGFS.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Update the entry for GPFS to mention FhGFS, too.

This fixes Bug#10293, which I guess was introduced in commit
95c948b06a dated 2003-10-02.
* NEWS: Document fix.
* src/du.c (process_file): Don't count files in different file
systems if -x is given.
* tests/du/one-file-system: Test for this bug.
|
|
* src/ls.c (decode_switches): Replace our use of XARGMATCH
with open-coded version so that we can give a better diagnostic.
* tests/ls/time-style-diag: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
Reported by Dan Jacobson in http://bugs.gnu.org/10253
with suggestions from Eric Blake and Paul Eggert.
|
|
* src/shred.c: Remove obsolete TODO comment. The first two and the
last item were done, adding --recursive (-r) is neither necessary
nor appropriate, and I don't want to add --interactive. I don't
see a need for the others. Prompted by comments from Amr Ali.

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.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

* src/ln.c (usage): Use clearer wording to describe the -L, -n,
and -T options (Bug#9896).
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (fs_normalize_perl_subst, fs-magic, fs-kernel-magic):
Undo previous patch; it missed a \#.
(fs_normalize_perl_subst): Use \043 rather than \#.
\043 is portable to all ASCIIish platforms, whereas \# is portable
only to platforms that are compatible with GNU make (and are
incompatible with POSIX make). Porting this to EBCDIC is left as
an exercise for the reader....
|
|
* src/sort.c (struct thread_args) [is_lo_child]: Remove member.
(sortlines): Remove unused parameter, "is_lo_child". Update callers.
* src/stat.c (out_epoch_sec): Mark unused parameter.
(do_statfs, do_stat): Remove unused parameter, "terse". Update callers.
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (fs_normalize_perl_subst): Don't make unportable
assumption about \# in the right hand side of a macro definition.
This works with GNU make, but not with POSIX make.
Problem reported by Basavaraj B (Bug#10220).
(fs-magic, fs-kernel-magic): Do the #-substitution here instead.
|

* src/test.c (unary_operator): gcc reported that initializations
in two case statements were skipped. Enclose in braces.
* src/od.c (decode_one_format): Likewise.

* src/csplit.c (usage): Remove declaration.
* src/ls.c (usage): Likewise.
* src/pr.c (usage): Likewise.

* src/su.c (log_su):
* src/test.c (unary_operator):
* src/whoami.c (main):
Don't assume that getuid and friends always succeed.
This fixes the same problem that we recently fixed with 'id'.
|
|
* src/ln.c (usage): A paragraph describing interactions of -s
with -L and -P somehow snuck in between the description of the
--backup option and the values used to control it. Fix this by
moving the value description up.
|
|
* src/sort.c (usage): Use KEYDEF instead of POS, and call out the
specific OPTS that can occur in KEYDEF.
Based on a report by Lars Noodén, http://bugs.gnu.org/10019
|
|
* src/id.c (main): Report an error if no args are given and getuid
fails, because print_full_info needs ruid. Redo code so that
getuid and friends are invoked only when needed; this makes the
code easier to follow, and is how I found the above bug.
|
|
* src/system.h (emit_size_note): Use "unit" rather than "suffix",
and move multiplication to example instead of in suffix list.
See additional discussion in Bug#9939.
|
|
* src/id.c (main): Replace confusing use of "etc.".
|
|
* src/id.c (GETID_MAY_FAIL): Remove.
(main): Check for nonzero errno, rather than having a compile-time
GETID_MAY_FAIL guess. Suggested by Roland McGrath in
<http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10021#47>.
Also, the old code was incorrect if uid_t was narrower than int.
(print_full_info): Remove unnecessary cast to -1.
|
|
* src/id.c (GETID_MAY_FAIL, main, print_full_info): Undo previous change.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (Block size): IEC 60027-2 has been superseded
by ISO/IEC 80000-13, so prefer the newer standard but also mention
the old. The new standard specifies Zi and Yi, so they are no
longer GNU extensions. Fix stale URL to BIPM.
2011-11-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
id: handle (uid_t) -1 more portably
* src/id.c (GETID_MAY_FAIL): Remove.
(main): Check for negative return values, not for -1.
The old code was incorrect if uid_t was narrower than int,
regardless of whether we were on a GNU or a POSIX platform.
The new code is simpler and doesn't need GETID_MAY_FAIL.
(print_full_info): Remove unnecessary cast to -1.

POSIX-conforming getuid, geteuid, etc. functions cannot fail,

* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it to the list.
* tests/init.cfg (require_gnu_): New function.

Using ls -l on an SELinux-enabled system would leak one SELinux
context string per non-empty-directory command-line argument.
* src/ls.c (free_ent): New function, factored out of...
(clear_files): ...here. Use it.
(extract_dirs_from_files): Call free_ent (f), rather than simply
free (f->name). The latter failed to free the possibly-malloc'd
linkname and scontext members, and thus could leak one of those
strings per command-line argument.
* THANKS.in: Update.

This fixes an incompatibility with POSIX 2008 and with BSD.
Problem reported by Abdallah Clark (Bug#9939)

We deprecated and undocumented the --iso-8601 (-I) option mostly
because date could not parse that particular format. Now that
it can, it's time to restore the documentation.

* src/system.h (ENODATA): Restore definition.
gnulib defines it only on native Windows systems, so removing our
definition would have provoked build failure on systems that use it,
like FreeBSD. Reported by Bruno Haible in
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/28739/focus=28795
* gnulib: Update to latest, to get new ENODATA-exempting maint.mk rule.

As far as we know, this fix affects only Cygwin with NWFS or NcFsd
file systems. See these:

* src/system.h (ENODATA): Remove fall-back definition, now that
gnulib provides one. Caught by the sc_prohibit_always-defined_macros
syntax-check rule.
Also remove now-irrelevant "Don't use bcopy..." comment.

Because tail's fremote function did not designate GPFS as
a remote file system type, tail -f would mistakenly attempt

* src/tac.c: Change wording in diagnostic: "failed to open" seems
clearer than "cannot open".
|
|
* src/tac.c (temp_stream): Don't exit immediately upon failed heap
allocation, here. That would inhibit processing of any additional
command-line arguments.
|
|
* src/tac.c (temp_stream): New function, factored out of...
(copy_to_temp): ...here.
(tac_nonseekable): Don't free or fclose, now that we reuse the file.
Suggested by Ambrose Feinstein.
* THANKS.in: Update.
|
|
* src/tac.c (copy_to_temp): Now that the template string tacXXXXXX
is used in only one place, don't bother using a separate variable.
Also, using three unconditional assignments seems slightly clearer.
|
|
* src/tac.c (tac_nonseekable): Call fclose and free tmp_file after
each successful call to copy_to_temp.
|
|
* src/tac.c (copy_to_temp): Do not reuse the template buffer.
Instead, scribble only on a freshly-xstrdup'd copy each time.
Free that buffer both here, upon failure, and ...
(tac_nonseekable): ...free the buffer in caller, upon success.
* tests/misc/tac-2-nonseekable: New file.

Move some declarations "down" to point of initialization.

This change affects only systems that have neither *at function support
nor the /proc/self/fd support required to emulate those *at functions.
* src/remove.c (write_protected_non_symlink): Call faccessat
unconditionally. Thus we no longer need euidaccess_stat, which was
the sole function used here to operate on a full relative file name.
Remove full_name parameter and update caller.
* lib/euidaccess-stat.h: Remove file.
* lib/euidaccess-stat.c: Likewise.
* m4/euidaccess-stat.m4: Likewise.
* po/POTFILES.in: Remove lib/euidaccess-stat.c.
* m4/prereq.m4 (gl_PREREQ): Don't require gl_EUIDACCESS_STAT.

Interix provides faster replacements for getgr{gid,nam,ent} where
group member information is not fetched from domain controllers.
This makes 'id' usable on domain controlled interix boxes.

This is related to commit b7f2b51c, 2010-01-01,
"ls: fix color of broken symlinks colored as target"
which didn't handle the --dereference case.
The simplest way to reproduce the resultant
erroneous "argetm" is as follows:
$ ln -s /no-such dangle
$ env LS_COLORS=ln=target ls --dereference --color
ls: cannot access dangle: No such file or directory
argetmdangle
This is also an issue with the `tree` utility,
reported here: http://bugs.debian.org/586765
* src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): Move the handling
of 'ln=target' in $LS_COLORS (color_symlink_as_referent == true)
to a higher scope, to handle all cases where type == C_LINK.
* tests/misc/ls-misc: Add a test case for the specific issue,
and 2 further test cases to verify other code paths in this area.
Reported by Jason Glassey.
|
|
At first this looked like a buffer overrun, since there was no test
to ensure that the buffer length was 6. However, since the LS_COLORS
string is NUL-terminated and since settings within it are separated by
":" there was neither the risk of reading beyond end of buffer nor risk
of a false-positive match.
* src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): Use color_symlink_as_referent
rather than manually comparing against "target" again.
* src/system.h (STRNCMP_LIT): Correct description in comment.
|

These commands would fail to terminate:
yes -- -nan | head -156903 | sort -g > /dev/null
echo nan > F; sort -m -g F F
That can happen with any strtold implementation that includes
uninitialized data in its return value. The problem arises in the
mergefps function when bubble-sorting the two or more lines, each
from one of the input streams being merged: compare(a,b) returns 64,
yet compare(b,a) also returns a positive value. With a broken
comparison function like that, the bubble sort never terminates.
Why do the long-double bit strings corresponding to two identical
"nan" strings not compare equal? Because some parts of the result
are uninitialized and thus depend on the state of the stack.
For more details, see http://bugs.gnu.org/9612.
* src/sort.c (nan_compare): New function.
(general_numcompare): Use it rather than bare memcmp.
