Note that IBRIX used to have a different magic number 0x013111A7
instead of the current 0x013111A8. However, the former is no longer
used and the version of IBRIX it was used in is really ancient, so
it's extremely unlikely anyone is still using it. Therefore, just
add the newer magic number.
Mark IBRIX as a 'remote' file system type as inotify support had
never been officially tested with it.
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add file system ID definition.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.

tee is very often used with pipes and this gives better control
when writing to them. There are 3 classes of file descriptors
that tee can write to: files(1), pipes(2), and early close pipes(3).
Handling write errors to 1 & 2 is supported at present with the caveat
that failure writing to any pipe will terminate tee immediately.
Handling write errors to type 3 is not currently supported.
To improve the supported combinations we add these options:
--write-error=warn
Warn if error writing any output including pipes.
Allows continued writing to still open files/pipes.
Exit status is failure if any output had error.
--write-error=warn-nopipe, -p
Warn if error writing any output except pipes.
Allows continued writing to still open files/pipes.
Exit status is failure if any non pipe output had error.
--write-error=exit
Exit if error writing any output including pipes.
--write-error=exit-nopipe
Exit if error writing any output except pipes.
Use the "nopipe" variants when files are of types 1 and 3, otherwise
use the standard variants with types 1 and 2. A caveat with the above
scheme is that a combination of pipe types (2 & 3) is not supported
robustly. I.e. if you use the "nopipe" variants when using both type
2 and 3 pipes, then any "real" errors on type 2 pipes will not be
diagnosed.
Note also a general issue with type 3 pipes that are not on tee's
stdout, is that shell constructs don't allow to distinguish early
close from real failures. For example `tee >(head -n1) | grep -m1 ..`
can't distinguish between an error or an early close in "head" pipe,
while the fail on the grep part of the pipe is distinguished
independently from the resulting pipe errors. This is a general
issue with the >() construct, rather than with tee itself.

This is a cleanup to the previous commit v8.23-138-g7ceaf1d.
* src/tee.c (tee_files): Do not exempt the "-" file from being closed,
as this is no longer stdout but a normal file.
|
|
Since v5.2.1-1247-g8dafbe5, tee(1) treated '-' as stdout while POSIX
explicitly requires to treat this as a file name. Revert this change,
as the interleaved output - due to sending another copy of input to
stdout - is not considered to be useful. Discussed in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2015-02/msg00085.html

While at it, re-indent the above multi-argument processing case and
extend that to 13 operands, as POSIX mandates that, too.

* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_strncmp): Improve the search pattern: use
_sc_search_regexp to find all invocations of strncmp except when
used on a macro definition line; just match the function name with
an opening parenthesis. Before, the expression missed places where
the comparison against 0 was in a subsequent line.
* src/system.h (STRNCMP_LIT): Shorten 'literal' to 'lit' to move
the whole definition of the macro into one line - thus making
sc_prohibit_strncmp pass.

This setting is unusual on BSD as it's read normally in the local
flags returned by tcgetattr(), but can only be set with an ioctl.
Setting with tcsetattr() is ignored.
* src/stty.c (NO_SETATTR): A new flag to indicate the setting
is read and displayed like a normal termios flag, but is set
in some other manner.
(main): Skip tcsetattr() for this setting when this flag is set.
Also fixup the exiting 'extproc' processing to handle the
'-extproc' case correctly.
(sane_mode): Skip setting '-extproc' for 'sane' to avoid the error.
This isn't ideal but matches the operation of the BSD native stty.

* src/tail.c (main): Document another caveat with the
inotify implementation wrt multiple hardlinked files.

Each user has a maximum number of inotify watches,
so handle the cases where we exhaust these resources.

the watch for an inode, when replacing with a new watch for a name.
Return all used inotify resources when reverting to polling.
Revert to polling upon first indication of inotify resource exhaustion.
Revert to polling on any inotify resource exhaustion.
Diagnose resource exhaustion correctly in all cases.
Avoid redundant reinsertion in the hash for unchanged watches
(where only attributes of the file are changed).

The equivalent of this is 'flush', but that was never documented

Prompted by the implicit -O3 added by american-fuzzy-lop,
seen with GCC 4.9.2 on x86_64.
src/pr.c: In function 'print_files.part.5':
src/pr.c:1781:6: error: assuming signed overflow does not occur
when simplifying conditional to constant [-Werror=strict-overflow]
if (cols_ready_to_print () == 0)
This happens because cols_ready_to_print() is inlined
thus reducing the comparison to the N variable in print_page().
Now this can't overflow due to the protection when parsing the
specified column, but use an unsigned type to avoid the
apparent signed overflow.

This patch fixes the handling of sub-bind-mount cycles which are
incorrectly detected as the file system errors. If you bind mount the
directory 'a' to its subdirectory 'a/b/c' and then run 'du a/b' you
will get the circular dependency warning even though nothing is wrong
with the file system. This happens because the first directory that is
traversed twice in this case is not a bind mount but a child of bind
mount. The solution is to traverse all the directories in the cycle
that fts detected and check whether they are not a (bind) mount.
* src/du.c (mount_point_in_fts_cycle): New function that checks whether
any of the directories in the cycle that fts detected is a mount point.
* src/du.c (process_file): Update the function to use the new function
that looks up all the directories in the fts cycle instead of only the

We may run into a race condition if we treat hard links to the same file
as distinct files. If we do 'mv a b' and 'mv b a' in parallel, both a
and b can disappear from the file system. The reason is that in this
case the unlink on src is called and the system calls can end up being
run in the order where unlink(a) and unlink(b) are the last two system
calls. Therefore exit with an error code so that we avoid the potential
data loss.

* doc/coreutils.texi (df invocation): For the --all option, expand
on the class of normally suppressed mount entries that it includes.

* src/chroot.c (is_root): Adjust to compare canonicalized paths
rather than inodes, to handle (return false in) the case where
we have a tree that is constructed by first bind mounting "/"
(thus having the same inode).
(main): Unconditionally call chroot() because it's safer
and of minimal performance benefit to avoid in this case.
This will cause inconsistency with some platforms
not allowing `chroot / true` for non root users.
* tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Adjust appropriately.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fixes.
Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/18736

* src/copy.c (copy_reg): If sparse_copy() failed, then an
erroneous error about failing to extend the file would be reported.
|
|
* src.copy.c (copy_reg): Use fiemap to read sparse files, even
if the output is not to a regular file.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.

With --sparse=always use fallocate(...PUNCH_HOLE...) to
avoid any permanent allocation due to speculative
preallocation employed by file systems such as XFS.
* m4/jm-macros.m4: Check for <linux/falloc.h> and fallocate().
* src/copy.c (punch_hole): A new function to try and punch
a hole at the specified offset if supported.
(create_hole): Call punch_hole() after requesting a hole.
(extent_copy): Likewise.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.

Previously cp would not detect runs of NULs that were
smaller than the buffer size used for I/O (currently 128KiB).
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Use an independent hole_size, set to
st_blksize, to increase the chances of detecting a representable hole,
in a run of NULs read from the input.
(create_hole): A new function refactored from sparse_copy() and
extent_copy() so we have a single place to handle holes.
(sparse_copy): Adjust to loop over the larger input buffer
in chunks of the passed hole size. Also adjust to only call
lseek once per hole, rather than at least once per input buffer.
* tests/cp/sparse.sh: Add test cases for various sparse chunk sizes.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.

Prompted by http://hydra.nixos.org/build/15682577
with GCC 4.8.3 on i686
src/tac.c:557:6: error: assuming signed overflow does not occur
when simplifying conditional to constant [-Werror=strict-overflow]
if (bytes_copied < 0)
This happens because copy_to_temp() is inlined in tac_nonseekable(),
thus reducing the comparison to the bytes_copied variable in
copy_to_temp. Now this can't overflow on either 32 or 64 bit
due to the protection of the preceding fwrite(). We could use a
guard like "if (bytes_copied <= OFF_T_MAX - bytes_read)" to avoid
the warning, but rather than a runtime branch, just use an unsigned
type to avoid apparent signed overflow on systems where the accumulation
is not promoted to unsigned (32 bit size_t, 64 bit off_t).
* src/tac.c (copy_to_temp): Increment an unsigned type to
avoid the subsequent signed overflow warning.

Fix similar problems in head, od, split, tac, and tail.
Reported by George Shuklin in: http://bugs.gnu.org/18621
* NEWS: Document this.
* src/head.c (elseek): Move up.
(elide_tail_bytes_pipe, elide_tail_lines_pipe): New arg
CURRENT_POS. All uses changed.
(elide_tail_bytes_file, elide_tail_lines_file):
New arg ST and remove arg SIZE. All uses changed.
* src/head.c (elide_tail_bytes_file):
* src/od.c (skip): Avoid optimization for /sys files, where
st_size is bogus and st_size == st_blksize.
Don't report error at EOF when not optimizing.
* src/head.c, src/od.c, src/tail.c: Include "stat-size.h".
* src/split.c (input_file_size): New function.
(bytes_split, lines_chunk_split, bytes_chunk_extract): New arg
INITIAL_READ. All uses changed. Use it to double-check st_size.
* src/tac.c (tac_seekable): New arg FILE_POS. All uses changed.
(copy_to_temp): Return size of temp file. All uses changed.
* src/tac.c (tac_seekable):
* src/tail.c (tail_bytes):
* src/wc.c (wc):
Don't trust st_size; double-check by reading.
* src/wc.c (wc): New arg CURRENT_POS. All uses changed.
* tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add tests/misc/wc-proc.sh,
tests/misc/od-j.sh, tests/tail-2/tail-c.sh.
* tests/misc/head-c.sh:
* tests/misc/tac-2-nonseekable.sh:
* tests/split/b-chunk.sh:
Add tests for problems with /proc and /sys files.
* tests/misc/od-j.sh, tests/misc/wc-proc.sh, tests/tail-2/tail-c.sh:
New files.
