* src/nproc.c (main): Error if any non option parameters.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
|
|
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add a case: vzfs, 0x565A4653 (local).
Reported by Jens Rosenboom in http://bugs.gnu.org/12356
* NEWS (Improvement): Mention it.
|
|
* src/remove.c (excise): Tighten the test for when we defer to an
old errno value: instead of relying solely on an FTS_DNR (unreadable
directory) failure, also test current and replacement errno values.
This change would also have solved the problem addressed by commit
v8.19-106-g57dd067. For more info, see http://bugs.gnu.org/12339#113

These commands would evoke an invalid diagnostic:
$ mkdir d && ln -s d s && env rm -r s/
rm: cannot remove 's': Too many levels of symbolic links
remove.c was stripping trailing slashes from "s/" before passing
the name to "rm". But a trailing slash may change the semantics,
and thus should not be stripped.
* src/remove.c (rm_fts): Do not strip trailing slashes.
* tests/rm/v-slash.sh: Adapt to new expected output.
* gnulib: Update to latest, for an improved fts.c that merely
normalizes trailing slashes.

* src/local.mk (built_programs.list, all_programs.list): These.
|
|
* tests/Makefile.am (check-local): Here, by making this depend
on 'vc_exe_in_TESTS' ...
(check): ... rather than making this depend on them. While the old
usage worked, it relied on an implementation detail rather than on
documented behavior.
* src/local.mk (check-local): Similarly, make this depend on
'check-README' and 'check-duplicate-no-install' ...
(check): ... rather than on this.
|
|
* src/touch.c (usage): Indent --time=... to line up with all of the
other long options.
|
|
* src/local.mk (AM_CPPFLAGS): Add 'src' to the directories that
are searched for #include'd files.
|

The code deciding which coreutils programs to build (depending on
defaults, system capabilities, and user requests) is overly complex
and rather confusing. Let's begin simplifying it by removing some
non-strictly-necessary indirection variables.
* configure.ac: Adjust and improve few comments.
(OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS, OPTIONAL_PKGLIB_PROGS): Rename ...
(bin_PROGRAMS, pkglibexec_PROGRAMS): ... like these, respectively.
Ensure they aren't initialized in all Makefiles (which would lead
to spurious errors), by calling AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE on them.
* src/local.mk: Adjust and improve few comments.
(bin_PROGRAMS, pkglibexec_PROGRAMS): Simply define
to the corresponding '@substitution@'.
|
|
* src/.gitignore: Here, adding the '.dirstamp' file generated
by the C compilation rules.
|
|
Some of them can be simplified after the previous changes, some
of them have been downright broken by them, and need fixing.
* src/local.mk: Adjust some comments.
(EXTRA_DIST): Avoid SPACE-TAB sequences.
(src/dircolors.h, src/fs.h src/fs-is-local.h): Avoid 8-SPACES
indentation.
(_sc_check-AUTHORS): Move ...
* cfg.mk (sc_check-AUTHORS): ... here (superseding the old rule
with the same name, that was just a recursive invocation to it).
Adjust the paths of the invoked coreutils programs, to account
for the fact that this rule now runs in the top-level build dir,
not in the 'src/' subdir. Other minor cosmetic adjustments.
(ALL_RECURSIVE_TARGETS): Remove 'sc_option_desc_uppercase' and
'sc_man_file_correlation', since they no longer entail any
recursive make invocation.
(sc_option_desc_uppercase): Remove dependency from $(all_programs):
it isn't actually needed.
(check-programs-vs-x): Likewise. Also, fix heading comments to
truly reflect what this check does.
(all-progs-but-lbracket): Strip the 'src/' prefix from each entry
in the list of programs; this avoids a spurious failure in the
'check-programs-vs-x' recipe.
(.PHONY): No need to list targets 'sc_man_file_correlation' and
'sc_option_desc_uppercase': they are automatically declared phony
by 'maint.mk', being recognized as syntax checks.
|
|
* src/local.mk (dist-hook): Don't use this to ensure all the
programs, even the ones disabled by default or by the user, are
built (doing so is required to ensure the distributed manpages
are properly built). This would build those programs too late
anyway, causing errors like:
$ make dist
make dist-xz am__post_remove_distdir='@:'
make[1]: Entering directory `~/src/coreutils'
GEN man/arch.1
help2man: can't get '--help' info from man/arch.td/arch
make[1]: *** [man/arch.1] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `~/src/coreutils'
make: *** [dist] Error 2
Instead, ...
* man/local.mk (extra_man_x, extra_man_1): define these ...
($(extra_man_1)): ... and make this depend on $(all_programs).
(EXTRA_DIST): Adjust.
Adjust some comments as well.
|
|
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove 'src'. Ensure '.' is listed before
'tests' and 'gnulib-tests'.
(dist-hook): Adjust: we must now tweak the top-level Makefile.in
in $(distdir), not the one in the 'src/' subdir (which is gone).
(include): The '$(top_srcdir)/src/local.mk' file.
* build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh: Adjust the generation of the
automake input fragment.
* tests/Makefile.am (.built-programs): Adjust.
* cfg.mk (all_programs): Remove this convenience rule; it's no
longer needed, now that we can rely directly on the contents of
$(all_programs).
(sc_option_desc_uppercase, check-programs-vs-x:): Adjust lists
of prerequisites accordingly.
(all-progs-but-lbracket): Simplify definition accordingly.
* configure.ac ($OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS): Adjust definition.
($OPTIONAL_PKGLIB_PROGS): Likewise.
($NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT): Tweak definition, for consistency.
(AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove 'src/Makefile'.
* src/Makefile.am: Rename ...
* src/local.mk: ... like this, with a lot of adjustments. In
addition ...
(all_programs): ... remove this now-unneeded convenience target.

This is in preparation of future changes. Still, this patch
leaves the build system in a better shape; true, with more
indirections, but also with less convoluted and brittle hacks.
Unfortunately, this commit also makes some rebuild rules
incomplete; that will son be fixed by follow-up patches.
* build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh: New, generates autoconf
and automake input fragments that define "lists" of all coreutils
programs, with further distinctions about how and when these
programs should be built (by default; if the system is capable
enough; only if the user asks for them explicitly). This is
useful to avoid duplicating the definitions of these lists among
several files (at least 'configure.ac' 'src/Makefile.am'); such
duplication had proved a source of inconsistencies and bugs in
the past. And the pre-existing way to avoid such duplication,
as implemented in 'configure.ac' before this patch, was overly
complex and brittle.
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute the new script.
* bootstrap.conf (bootstrap_post_import_hook): Run the new script
to generate 'm4/cu-progs.m4' and 'src/cu-progs.mk'.
* .gitignore: Ignore those files.
* configure.ac: Include 'm4/cu-progs.m4', and decidedly simplify
most of the program lists definition and processing accordingly.
* src/Makefile.am: Similarly include 'src/cu-progs.mk', containing
definition of variables $(default__progs), $(no_install__progs)
and $(build_if_possible__progs). Accordingly ...
(no_install__progs, build_if_possible__progs): ... remove.
(EXTRA_DIST): Adjust definition.
Adjust a comment.
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (fs-def): Here: it's not portable to some non-GNU
make implementations.
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (fs-kernel-magic, fs-magic): Here, instead of
inlining its expansion "LC_ALL=C sort".
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (editpl): This.
|
|
For example, instead of factoring out the extra linker flags needed
by 'cp', 'mv' ind 'install' into a '$(copy_LDADD)' variable, factor
them out in a '$(copy_ldadd)' variable.
Partly a minor cleanup, partly a preparation for future changes.
* src/Makefile.am (copy_LDADD): Rename ...
(copy_ldadd): ... like this.
(remove_LDADD): Rename ...
(remove_ldadd): ... like this.
All uses adjusted. Some comments updated.

This change enables tail -f to use inotify and lets
stat -f --format=%T report the file system type name, "zfs".
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add a case: zfs, 0x2fc12fc1.
* NEWS (Improvements): Mention it.
* THANKS.in: Update.
Reported by Raimonds Miltins in http://bugs.gnu.org/12301.

|
* src/df.c (get_header): Mark two "%s-%s" strings for translation
and give translators a hint what each is for.
|
|
The format used is the BSD traditional format which looks like:
MD5 (/dev/null) = d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e
* NEWS: Add new feature info.
* doc/coreutils.texi (md5sum invocation): Add detailed information
about the new --tag option.
* src/md5sum.c: Add the new --tag option for BSD-style output.
(bsd_split_3): Add ESCAPED_FILENAME parameter.
(print_filename): New function refactored from main().
(filename_unescape): New function refactored from split_3().
* tests/misc/md5sum-bsd: Add tests for the new feature.
|
|
* src/remove.c (prompt): Hoist the computation of is_empty, since we'll
need it slightly earlier.
Before, this function would arrange to fail with EISDIR when processing
a directory without --recursive (-r). Adjust the condition to exempt
an empty directory when --dir has been specified.
Improve comments.
* tests/rm/d-3: New file, to ensure that rm -d -i dir works.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* THANKS.in: Update.

Before this change, a directory cycle induced by a bind mount
would be treated as a fatal error, i.e., probable disk corruption.
However, such cycles are relatively common, and can be detected
efficiently, so now du emits a descriptive warning and arranges
to exit nonzero.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* src/du.c: Include "mountlist.h".
(di_mnt): New global set.
(di_files): Rename global from di_set, now that there are two.
(fill_mount_table): New function.
(hash_ins): Add DI_SET parameter.
(process_file): Look up each dir dev/ino pair in the new set.
(main): Allocate, initialize, and free the new set.
* tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle: Add a test for the fix.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* THANKS.in: Update.
This implements the proposal in http://bugs.gnu.org/11844.

This also fixes a free-memory-read (FMR) bug: when fillbuf's realloc
of buf->buf frees the buffer into which saved_line.text points,
the processing of that just-read longer line includes comparison
against the saved line in freed memory.
* src/sort.c (overlap): Remove.
(fillbuf): Do not try to copy saved lines, as that is too risky
in the presence of parallelism, reallocated buffers, etc.
(sort): Invalidate any saved line before sorting a new batch.
|
|
sort -u could omit one or more lines of expected output.
This bug arose because sort recorded the most recently printed line via
reference, and if you were unlucky, the storage for that line would be
reused (overwritten) as additional input was read into memory. If you
were doubly unlucky, the new value of the "saved" line would not only
match the very next line, but if that next line were also the first in
a series of identical, not-yet-printed lines, then the corrupted "saved"
line value would result in the omission of all matching lines.
* src/sort.c (saved_line): New static/global, renamed and moved from...
(write_unique): ...here. Old name was "saved", which was too generic
for its new role as file-scoped global.
(fillbuf): With --unique, when we're about to read into a buffer that
overlaps the saved "preceding" line (saved_line), copy the line's .text
member to a realloc'd-as-needed temporary buffer and adjust the line's
key-defining members if they're set.
(overlap): New function.
* tests/misc/sort: New tests.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* THANKS.in: Update.
Bug introduced via commit v8.5-89-g9face83.

Add new option to rm (-d/--dir), which allows removal of
empty directories, while still safely disallowing removal
of non-empty ones.
This improves compatibility with Mac OS X and BSD systems,
which honor the -d option.
* src/remove.c (rm_fts): Remove empty directories when requested.
* src/remove.h (rm_options) [remove_empty_directories]: New member.
* src/rm.c (long_opts, usage, main): Update usage and option parsing.
(rm_option_init): Initialize the new member.
* src/mv.c (rm_option_init): Initialize the new member.
* tests/rm/d-1: New test case - successfully delete empty dir.
* tests/rm/d-2: New test case - refuse to delete nonempty dir.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
|
|
* src/df.c (main): Add conditions to fail when the mount list cannot
be read: this includes the cases when a file name argument is given
and any of -a, -l, -t or -x is used.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Document the additional error conditions.
* tests/df/no-mtab-status: Add a new test.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (sort_LDADD): Sort uses euidaccess, which may require
whatever library configure deemed necessary to resolve the eaccess
function, but no one told sort to link with that library.
(sort_LDADD): Add $(LIB_EACCESS).

When the combination of the file system options with given files or
devices does not lead to output, "df --total" would exit successfully
although it should not.
Examples:
$ df --total --type=xfs / # when / is not an XFS file system
$ df --total --local -t nfs DIR # nfs is remote per se ...
$ df --total -t qwerty /dev/sdb5 # typo in file system type
Furthermore, "df --total" would not print the error message "no file
systems processed" when the file argument does not exist or is otherwise
not accessible.
Example:
$ df --total __not_exist__
These 2 bugs are present since --total was added by commit
v6.12-166-gea2887b.
* src/df.c (get_dev): Do not set file_systems_processed to true when
force_fsu is true, i.e. when the row for the "total" line is processed.
(main): Don't print totals unless we've processed a file system.
Also only print the "no FS processed" message if there was no
preceding diagnostic.
* tests/df/total-unprocessed: Add a new test.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

* src/truncate.c (main): For a user who makes the mistake of
using a non-seekable file as a reference for the desired length,
truncate would open that file, attempt to seek to its end, but
upon seek failure would neglect to close the file descriptor.
Close the file descriptor even when lseek fails.
In addition, ignore failure to close that reference FD, since as
long as the lseek succeeds, a close failure doesn't matter.
Coverity spotted the potential FD leak.
Improved-by: Pádraig Brady.
|
|
* src/split.c (lines_rr) [IF_LINT]: Plug a harmless leak.
(main) [IF_LINT]: Free a usually-small (~70KB) buffer
just before exit, mainly to take this off the radar of
leak-detecting tools.
Improved-by: Pádraig Brady.
|
|
* src/tail.c (tail_forever): Close FD to avoid leak after a
failed fstat.
|
|
* src/tail.c (check_fspec): Save fstat-induced errno *before*
calling close_fd, not after. Otherwise, the close could well
clobber the global errno, making tail print an invalid diagnostic.
This could happen only with tail -f, and even then, only when
a valid file descriptor were to provoke fstat failure.
|
|
* src/system.h (stzncpy): Add "restrict" attribute to each pointer
parameter and note in the comment that the buffers must not overlap.
|
|
* src/remove.c (cache_stat_ok, is_nondir_lstat): Remove unused
functions.
|
|
* src/remove.c (cache_statted, is_dir_lstat): Remove unused
static-inlined functions.
* THANKS.in: Remove my name from this list, now that (with this
commit) it is included automatically.

It's awkward to read and problematic for scripts when
control characters like '\n' are output.
Note other fields are already handled with mbsalign,
which converts non printable chars to the replacement char.
A caveat to note with that, is the replacement char takes
a place in the field and so possibly truncates the field
if it was the widest field in the records.
Note a more general replacement function, that
handles all printable, or non white space characters,
would require more sophisticated support for various
encodings, and the complexity vs benefit was not
deemed beneficial enough at present.
Perhaps in future a more general replacement function
could be shared between the various utilities.
Note <space> is unaffected in any field,
which could impact scripts processing the output.
However any of the number fields at least could have
spaces considering `LANG=fr_FR df -B\'1`, so it's
probably best to leave spaces, which also allows
scripts to handle mount points with spaces without change.
* src/df.c (hide_problematic_chars): Replace control chars with '?'.
* tests/df/problematic-chars: Add a new root only test.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

|
* src/system.h (stzncpy): New function.
* src/pinky.c (print_entry): Use stzncpy, not stpncpy.
The latter does not NUL-terminate. I assumed that strncpy was
the only function with such a horrible API. Today I learned that
stpncpy also may not NUL-terminate its result.
The bugs were introduced in commit v8.17-48-gf79263d.
* src/who.c (print_user): Likewise.
Thanks to Erik Auerswald for spotting my error.
|
|
* src/pinky.c (print_entry): Remove unwarranted uses of strncpy.
Instead, use stpcpy and stpncpy.

the long form is used. Document the short -m option to
exist only for BSD compatibility.

* src/sort.c (stream_open): EXIT_FAILURE -> SORT_FAILURE.
Suggested by Pádraig Brady in <http://bugs.gnu.org/11816#34>.
|
|
* src/sort.c (outfd): Remove. All uses replaced by STDOUT_FILENO.
(stream_open): When writing, use stdout rather than fdopen.
(move_fd_or_die): Renamed from dup2_or_die, with the added functionality
of closing its first argument. All uses changed.
(avoid_trashing_input): Special case for !outfile no longer needed.
(check_output): Arrange for standard output to go to the file,
rather than storing the fd in outfd.
|
|
* src/sort.c (check_inputs): A new function to verify all inputs
are accessible before further processing.
(check_output): A new function to open or create a specified
output file, before futher processing.
(stream_open): Adjust to truncating the previously opened
output file rather than opening directly.
(avoid_trashing_input): Optimize to stat the output file
descriptor, rather than the file name.
(main): Call the new functions to check accessibility of
inputs and output, before processing starts.
* tests/misc/sort: Adjust to the changed error message.
* tests/misc/sort-merge-fdlimit: Account for the earlier opened
file descriptor of the specified output file.
* tests/misc/sort-exit-early: A new test to exercise the improvements.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
