2016-02-16date: free timezone variable to avoid valgrind warningDaniel Lockyer
* src/date.c (main): Free TZ variable to pacify valgrind, guarded by IF_LINT.
2016-02-15split: adjust recent --number changesPádraig Brady
* src/split.c (lines_rr): Reinstate the conditional setting of the WROTE boolean, as otherwise split -n r/1 would consume all input when all --filter commands are stopped. There was a test in place to check for this, but it was incorrect as detailed below. (input_file_size): Immediately disallow --number with non seekable inputs, as such an invocation is not currently generally supported and will fail as the data overflows the internal buffer. * tests/split/l-chunk.sh: Adjust to again disallow -n /dev/zero. Also change all '&& fail=1' checks to use the 'returns_ 1' form. * tests/split/filter.sh: Change the no longer supported /dev/zero case to a regular $OFF_T_MAX file (supported on XFS for example). Also fix the timeout(1) commands so they're not subject to pipefail issues.
2016-02-15stty: fix translated --help so the gettext header is not printedGöran Uddeborg
* src/stty.c (usage): Remove an erroneous call to translate an empty string, added in commit v8.23-112-g564f84a, which results in the gettext header being printed for translated languages. * THANKS.in: Remove the now committer. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
2016-02-12split: fix problems with /dev/zeroPaul Eggert
Problem reported by Nelson H.F. Beebe in: http://bugs.gnu.org/22624 Other problems also fixed: basically, the code got confused because GNU/Linux reports that /dev/zero has size zero. * src/split.c (input_file_size): Now takes struct stat *, not just size. Always store the first buffer. All callers changed. Treat /dev/zero as an infinitely-large file, both on GNU/Linux where fstat and lseek say its size is zero, and on GNU/Hurd where they say the size is OFF_T_MAX. (cwrite): Return true on success. (bytes_split): Don't try to read past EOF, and stop if a write fails. (lines_rr): Omit stray check for ignorable errno. (main): Get file size only when n_units > 1, since that's the only time it is needed. Defer most of the work to input_file_size. * tests/split/l-chunk.sh: Adjust tests to match new behavior on oddball inputs.
2016-01-29doc: fix the --iso-8601 example in date --helpVincent Lefevre
* src/date.c (usage): The colon is used in the timezone offset since commit v8.24-64-g17bbf6c. * THANKS.in: Remove committer. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/22491
2016-01-24build: avoid dynamic linking issue on Solaris sparcPádraig Brady
Solaris Studio 12 on sparc (not x86) will not remove unused functions, thus leaving a reference to an undefined program_name symbol from emit_try_help(). * src/system.h (emit_try_help): Change from an inline function to a macro, so that the inline function is not actually defined in libstdbuf.c. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/22430
2016-01-19tail: disable inotify with only non existent filesPádraig Brady
tests/tail-2/F-headers.sh and test/tail-2/retry.sh fail on on remote file systems due to tail going into inotify mode due to not being able to determine the remoteness of the non existent files. * src/tail.c (any_non_remote_file): A new function used to disable inotify when there are no open files, as we can't determine remoteness in that case. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
2016-01-16mv: consistently warn about multiply specified source dirsPádraig Brady
* src/copy.c (copy internal): Remember directories irrespective of their link count, because on some file systems like BTRFS, directories always have a link count of 1.
2016-01-15tests: simplify invalid signal determination for kill -lPádraig Brady
* src/operand2sig.c (operand2sig): Add a detailed comment explaining why we validate even very large shell exit status values. * tests/misc/kill.sh: Add a test case for the ksh scheme. Simplify the INVALID signal number determination which also avoids a false failure on systems like FreeBSD 10 with incomplete signal list (caused by inaccurate NSIG).
2016-01-14sort: with --debug, flag setlocale() failures on OpenBSDPádraig Brady
Locale categories are not equivalent on OpenBSD, and LC_COLLATE only supports "C" for example. Now LC_ALL is supported to set multiple other categories on OpenBSD, so setlocale(LC_ALL, "") returns a string indicating which categories were updated and which ignored. Therefore... * src/sort.c (main): ...Call setlocale(LC_COLLATE, "") to explicitly check whether a specified LC_ALL or LC_COLLATE environment variable value is supported for the LC_COLLATE category. Also use !! to explicitly convert to bool to support c89 systems where bool is an int, and thus would get values > 1. Reported by Assaf Gordon.
2016-01-13doc: suggest dd "sync" flag to maximize "nocache" effectivenessPádraig Brady
doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Add oflag=sync to the streaming example. Also reference the "direct" flag. Mention this is only a request to the system. * src/dd.c (usage): Mention the "sync" flag along with "nocache". Also mention that it's only a request to drop the cache. * THANKS.in: Add reporter Francois Rigault.
2016-01-13doc: mention the '0#' printf flags with stat %aPádraig Brady
* src/stat.c (usage): Mention the '#' and '0' flags are useful with %a. * doc/coreutils.texi (stat invocation): Likewise. Also give an example printing unambiguous octal output. Reported at http://bugs.debian.org/810539
2016-01-13mv: fix data loss with repeated source dir and same destinationPádraig Brady
commit v8.23-31-g90aa291 failed to consider this case, where the previous rename has failed, thus causing the following to remove the specified directory: mv dir dir dir * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Assume this rename attempt has succeeded, as a previous failure will already have been handled, and we don't want to remove the source directory in this case. * tests/cp/duplicate-sources.sh: Consolidate this test file to... * tests/mv/dup-source.sh: ...here. Add test cases for same source and dest. * tests/local.mk: Remove the consolidated test. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Reported at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1297464
2016-01-13wc: avoid ambiguous output with '\n' in file namesPádraig Brady
* src/wc.c (write_counts): Shell escape the file name if it contains '\n' so only a single line per file is output. * tests/misc/wc-files0.sh: Add a test case. * NEWS: Mention the improvement.
2016-01-13numfmt: add the -z,--zero-terminated optionAssaf Gordon
* doc/coreutils.texi (numfmt invocation): Reference the description. * src/numfmt.c: Parameterize '\n' references. * tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Add tests for character and field processing. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
2016-01-13paste: add the -z,--zero-terminated optionPádraig Brady
* doc/coreutils.texi (paste invocation): Reference -z description. * src/paste.c (main): Parameterize the use of '\n'. * tests/misc/paste.pl: Add test cases. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
2016-01-13comm: support NUL --output-delimiter for consistencyPádraig Brady
* src/comm.c (main): Track the output delimiter length, so that it can be adjusted to 1 for the NUL delimiter. Also rename the global variable from "delimiter" to "col_sep" so its use is more obvious, and to distinguish from the recently added "delim" global variable. * tests/misc/comm.pl: Adjust accordingly.
2016-01-13comm: add the -z,--zero-terminated optionPádraig Brady
* doc/coreutils.texi (comm invocation): Reference option description. * src/comm.c (main): Use readlinebuffer_delim() to support a parameterized delimiter. * tests/misc/comm.pl: Add test cases. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
2016-01-13tac: support an empty (NUL) --separatorPádraig Brady
* doc/coreutils.texi (tac invocation): Mention the NUL delineation with an empty --separator. * src/tac.c (main): Allow an empty separator when -r not specified. * tests/misc/tac.pl: Add test cases. * NEWS: Mention the new feature. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/8103
2016-01-13cut: add the -z,--zero-terminated optionPádraig Brady
* doc/coreutils.texi (cut invocation): Reference the description. * src/cut.c: Parameterize '\n' references. * tests/misc/cut.pl: Add tests for character and field processing. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
2016-01-13head,tail: add the -z,--zero-terminated optionRichard Russon
* doc/coreutils.texi: Reference the option description. * src/head.c: Parameterize the delimiter character. * src/tail.c: Likewise. * tests/misc/head.pl: Add test case. * tests/misc/tail.pl: Likewise. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
2016-01-13join,sort,uniq: with -z, treat '\n' as a field separatorPádraig Brady
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior. * doc/coreutils.texi (newlineFieldSeparator): A new description, referenced from ({join,sort,uniq} invocation). * src/system.h (field_sep): A new inline function to determine if a character is a field separator. * src/join.c (usage): s/whitespace/blank/ to be more accurate wrt which characters are field separators. (xfields): s/isblank/field_sep/. * src/sort.c (inittables): Likewise. * src/uniq.c (find_field): Likewise. * tests/misc/join.pl: Adjust -z test, and add a test/example for processing the whole record with field processing. * tests/misc/sort.pl: Add -z test cases, including case with '\n'. * tests/misc/uniq.pl: Add -z -f test case with \n.
2016-01-06stty: support "flusho" local settingPádraig Brady
This is used to discard terminal output on FreeBSD based systems. * src/stty.c (mode_info): Add FLUSHO where supported. (usage): Document for "local" and "combination" settings. * doc/coreutils.texi (local stty settings): Document, mentioning that this option is supported but ignored on GNU/Linux.
2016-01-06stty: support [-]drain setting to control waiting for pending TxPádraig Brady
Instead of commit v8.24-132-g5171bef which only provides control to disable this behavior (with -I), provide the symmetrical "[-]drain" special setting. * src/stty.c (main): Parse the [-]drain setting instead of -I, and treat like a global option. (usage): Adjust accordingly. * tests/misc/stty.sh: Test "drain" with and without options. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
2016-01-04stty: support -I, --immediate to not wait for pending transmissionPádraig Brady
In some cases an initial drain may block indefinitely as discussed at: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2016-01/msg00007.html * src/stty.c (main): Use TCSANOW rather than TCSADRAIN if -I specified. (usage): Document the new option. * doc/coreutils.texi (stty invocation): Likewise. * tests/misc/stty.sh: Ensure -I is supported. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
2016-01-03doc: mention in more places that -D will create --target-directoryPádraig Brady
* src/install.c (usage): Mention this commonly required functionality in the -D option description. * doc/coreutils.texi (install invocation): Likewise for the --target-directory description.
2016-01-03install: only attempt to create a target dir oncePádraig Brady
* src/install.c (main): As an optimization, when calling install_file_in_dir() for each file, only attempt to create the target directory once, as this is invariant over the loop.
2016-01-03install: fix relative copies to absolute directory with -DPádraig Brady
* src/install.c (mkancesdirs_safe_wd): Unconditionally restore the current working directory when possibly called multiple times (from install_file_in_dir()). * tests/install/create-leading.sh: Add a test case. * NEWS: Mention the fix. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/21497
2016-01-01maint: avoid a sc_long_lines failure in recent commitPádraig Brady
* src/dd.c (alloc_ibuf): Shorten line length.
2016-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesPádraig Brady
Run "make update-copyright" and then... * gnulib: Update to latest with copyright year adjusted. * tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year. * bootstrap: Likewise. * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year.
2015-12-31dd: append spaces to shorter status=progress linePaul Eggert
Problem noted by Pádraig Brady in: http://bugs.gnu.org/22277#8 Also, make the output a bit more precise while we're at it. * NEWS: Document this. * src/dd.c (previous_time): Remove, replacing with ... (next_time): New var. All uses changed. This avoids some rounding errors, and should be a bit faster. (newline_pending): Remove, replacing with ... (progress_len): New var. All uses changed. This lets us keep track of how many trailing spaces to append. (print_xfer_stats): Get the time first thing, so that it's closer to being correct. Count the bytes output, and append trailing spaces if needed. Add remarks to translators about translation lengths.
2015-12-31dd: summarize in --human-readable format tooPaul Eggert
Problem reported by Linda Walsh in: http://bugs.gnu.org/17505 * NEWS: Document this. * doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Use a simpler script. Adjust output example to match new behavior. * src/dd.c (human_size): Remove. All uses changed to use human_readable and ... (human_opts): ... this new constant. (abbreviation_lacks_prefix): New function. (print_xfer_stats): Use it. Output both --si and --human-readable summaries, but only if they have prefixes. * tests/dd/reblock.sh, tests/dd/stats.sh: Test new behavior.
2015-12-14sort: fix --debug marking for -b -k1.xPádraig Brady
We were erroneously skipping blanks in the marked comparison _after_ the key start offset was applied. * src/sort.c (debug_keys): Don't skip starting blanks if already handled by begfield(). * tests/misc/sort-debug-keys.sh: Add a test case. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/22155
2015-12-14stat: report file system type for "overlayfs"Pádraig Brady
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add "overlayfs", and tag it as "remote" to ensure that tail continues to use the more conservative polling mode. * README-release: Remove a stale comment about updating fremote() in tail.c. Also give a link to *_SUPER_MAGIC definitions not in the standard linux/magic.h location. * NEWS: Mention that this file system is recognized.
2015-12-14kill: add undocumented -L for compatibilityPádraig Brady
procps, bash >= 4.4, and util-linux >= 2.23 all have the -L option to output a table. * src/kill.c (main): Have -L synonymous with -t. Luckily there is no signal that begins with 'L'. * tests/misc/kill.sh: Update the test.
2015-12-14maint: fix incorrect spellings etcPádraig Brady
* NEWS: Use a standard version specification. * doc/coreutils.texi: Fix incorrect grammar. * src/df.c: Update a stale comment. * src/copy.c: Fix incorrect spellings. * src/factor.c: Likewise. * src/ls.c: Likewise. * src/pr.c: Likewise. * src/relpath.c: Likewise. * src/shred.c: Likewise. * src/sort.c: Likewise. * src/split.c: Likewise. * src/stdbuf.c: Likewise. * tests/misc/seq-precision.sh: Likewise.
2015-12-14maint: remove form feed characters from sourcesPádraig Brady
These are no longer useful and can impact viewing patches in some mail programs for example. * src/cksum.c: Remove ^L characters. * src/comm.c: Likewise. * src/kill.c Likewise. * src/ln.c Likewise. * src/nl.c Likewise. * src/pr.c Likewise. * src/ptx.c Likewise. * src/split.c Likewise. * src/tr.c Likewise. * src/tsort.c Likewise. * src/uniq.c Likewise. * src/wc.c Likewise. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit-form-feed): A new syntax check.
2015-12-07sort: promote '--debug'Eric Blake
* src/sort.c (usage): Mention --debug in KEYDEF paragraph.
2015-12-04doc: improve the description of sort --random-sortPádraig Brady
* src/sort.c (usage): Avoid mentioning the implementation, rather focusing on the result of the operation.
2015-11-30doc: avoid confusing K argument in the man pages of head and tailBernhard Voelker
The character 'K' representing numeric user input can be confusing, especially in the context where it can be suffixed by the multipliers K, M, G, etc. Use NUM instead. * doc/coreutils.texi (head invocation): Replace @var{k} by @var{num}. Also change @var{count} in the paragraph about the obsolete option syntax. (tail invocation): Likewise. Furthermore, adjust the option order to alphabetical sorting. * src/head.c (usage): s/K/NUM/ in as placeholder in the -c and -n options. Furthermore, print the actual DEFAULT_NUMBER instead of the hard-coded 10. * src/tail.c (usage): s/K/NUM/ in as placeholder in the -c and -n options. Add "[+]" to clarify that NUM may optionally be preceded by this sign. Remove the redundant explanation of the optional '+' prefix for NUM, as that is now clear from the option description above. Suggested by Dan Jacobson in http://bugs.gnu.org/22042
2015-11-25doc: clarify descriptions for tr --squeeze-repeatsPádraig Brady
* doc/coreutils.texi (uniq invocation): Fix the description of problematic input to say "blank lines" rather than "two or more blank lines". (tr invocation): Clarify that -s only works with SET1 when not translating (when SET2 not specified). Also explicitly state in examples where blank lines are deleted. Also add "deleting" to the menu item. * src/tr.c (usage): Improve the -s summary to say it always operates on the last specified SET.
2015-11-24copy: fix copying of extents beyond the apparent file sizeDmitry Monakhov
fallocate can allocate extents beyond EOF via FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE. Where there is a gap (hole) between the extents, and EOF is within that gap, the final hole wasn't reproduced, resulting in silent data corruption in the copied file (size too small). * src/copy.c (extent_copy): Ensure we don't process extents beyond the apparent file size, since processing and allocating those is not currently supported. * tests/cp/fiemap-extents.sh: Renamed from tests/cp/fiemap-empty.sh and re-enable parts checking the extents at and beyond EOF. * tests/local.mk: Reference the renamed test. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/21790
2015-11-23md5sum,sha*sum: ensure --ignore-missing fails when no file verifiedPádraig Brady
* src/md5sum.c (digest_check): Update a matched_checksums bool upon matched checksum, and fail (loudly unless --status is specified) if there were no matches. Also change properly_formatted_lines to a bool while at it since we don't need to track the plurality. * tests/misc/md5sum.pl: Add a test case. Suggested by Jim Meyering.
2015-11-23md5sum,sha*sum: add --ignore-missing for checking a subset of filesLuther Thompson
* doc/coreutils.texi (md5sum invocation): Document the new option. * src/md5sum.c (digest_file): Return an empty digest to indicate a missing file. (digest_check): Don't fail or output status given an empty checksum. (usage): Document the new option. (main): Process and validate the new option. * tests/misc/md5sum.pl: Add new test cases. * NEWS: Mention the new feature. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/15604
2015-11-19build: fix VPATH build with --disable-dependency-trackingPádraig Brady
* src/local.mk: Run `mkdir -p src` in all our explicit rules, as in a VPATH build the src/ dir is only created at configure time as a side effect of dependency tracking generation.
2015-11-17maint: remove unmaintained file, c99-to-c89.diffJim Meyering
* src/c99-to-c89.diff: Remove file. * src/local.mk (EXTRA_DIST): Remove it from this list. * README (Pre-C99 build failure): Update section.
2015-11-12csplit: check and report fwrite errors with errnoAssaf Gordon
discussed in: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2015-10/msg00091.html * src/csplit.c: (save_line_to_file): check fwrite failures, report and exit immediately instead of deferring to 'close_output'. * tests/misc/csplit-io-err.sh: test fwrite failure using LD_PRELOAD. * tests/local.mk: add new test.
2015-11-11stat: improve support for new Linux pseudo FS and ACFSPádraig Brady
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add new file system ID definitions. * NEWS: Mention the improvement.
2015-11-04maint: add a syntax check to avoid unstyled quotingPádraig Brady
* src/paste.c (main): Use our styled wrapper for quotearg_colon(). * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit-quotearg): A new syntax check to avoid future uses of unstyled quotearg to one of the internal slots, and thus destined for diagnostic output.
2015-11-04paste: avoid confusing backslash quoting in diagnosticPádraig Brady
* src/paste.c (main): Setting the quoting style to "escape" went against the intent of the comment about presenting doubled backslashes to the user. Instead use "c-maybe" which is the only mode which avoids doubled backslashes, and provides protection against arbitrary control characters. * tests/misc/paste.pl: Adjust accordingly.
