2011-03-03wc: avoid NULL dereference on out-of-memory errorJim Meyering
* src/wc.c (main): Diagnose failed argv_iter_init_* failure, rather than falling through and dereferencing NULL. Bug introduced by 2008-11-25 commit c2e56e0d, "wc: read and process --files0-from= input a name at a time,". * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
2011-02-18stdbuf: avoid even the appearance of a possible use-after-freeJim Meyering
There was an execution path by which "libstdbuf" could be used after being freed, but that would happen only if there were no libstdbuf.so alongside the stdbuf program and there had been an installation error leading to absence of the file, PKGLIBDIR/libstdbuf.so. * src/stdbuf.c (set_LD_PRELOAD): Rearrange loop to make it perfectly clear that there is no possibility of use-after-free. Steve Grubb reported this possible use-after-free of "libstdbuf".
2011-02-14uptime: omit unnecessary #ifPaul Eggert
* src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Omit unnecessary "#if defined HAVE_GETLOADAVG || defined C_GETLOADAVG". This #if is always true, and removing it will help us simplify the gnulib getloadavg module.
2011-02-11copy: adjust fiemap handling of sparse filesPádraig Brady
Don't depend on heuristics to detect sparse files if fiemap is available. Also don't scan for new holes unless --sparse=always has been specified. * src/copy.c (extent_copy): Pass the user specified sparse mode, and handle as described above.
2011-02-11copy: suppress redundant lseeks when using fiemapPádraig Brady
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Suppress redundant lseek()s in both the source and dest files, when there is no hole between extents.
2011-02-07cut: don't segfault for large unbounded rangeJim Meyering
* src/cut.c (set_fields): When computing the maximum range endpoint, take into consideration the start of any unbounded range, like "999-". * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. * tests/misc/cut (big-unbounded-b,c,f): Add tests. Reported by Paul Marinescu in http://debbugs.gnu.org/7993 The bug was introduced on 2004-12-04 via commit 7380cf79.
2011-02-05copy: don't let a failed lseek go undiagnosedJim Meyering
Upon failed lseek, sparse_copy_finalize would mistakenly return true. Admittedly, that is very unlikely, since that particular lseek is attempted only if the preceding call to sparse_copy induced a hole at EOF (via lseek on the destination FD). However, now that sparse_copy has an output parameter, N_READ, there is no longer any reason to call lseek (fd, 0, SEEK_CUR), so... * src/copy.c (sparse_copy_finalize): Remove the function. (copy_reg): Call ftruncate with n_read, rather than sparse_copy_finalize with its now-unnecessary lseek. Lasse Collin spotted the bug in sparse_copy_finalize.
2011-02-04cp: avoid spurious failure on any non-linux kernelJim Meyering
* src/extent-scan.c (extent_scan_read) [!linux]: Always set scan->initial_scan_failed so caller knows not to report the failure.
2011-02-03sort: fix --debug key highlighting when key start after key endPádraig Brady
This case was overlooked in commit bdde34f9, 2010-08-05, "sort: tune and refactor --debug code, and fix minor underlining bug" * src/sort.c (debug_key): Don't adjust the key end when it's before the key start. * tests/misc/sort-debug-keys: Add a test case.
2011-01-31cp: fix the buffer size used when writing zerosPádraig Brady
* src/copy.c (write_zeros): This bug caused 4 or 8 bytes to be written at a time which is very inefficient. One could trigger the issue with `cp --sparse=never sparse non-sparse` on a file system that supports fiemap.
2011-01-31cp: always initialize extent_copy's output parameterJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Otherwise it would be used uninitialized.
2011-01-31cp: fix copying a sparse file to a pipeJim Meyering
The recent FIEMAP-related changes made it so the unusual case of copying a sparse file to a non-regular destination (e.g., a pipe) would erroneously write one byte too many to that destination. That happened because extent_copy assumed that it could use lseek to obtain the number of bytes written to the output file descriptor. That was valid only for regular files. * src/copy.c (sparse_copy): Add a parameter, to be used by extent_copy, but not by reg_copy. Adjust callers. (extent_copy): Maintain new local, dest_pos, using new arg, n_read. Don't call lseek on dest_fd; use new var, dest_pos, instead. (copy_reg): Add unused arg.
2011-01-31maint: remove unused inclusion of "fiemap.h"Jim Meyering
* src/copy.c: Don't include "fiemap.h".
2011-01-31maint: update copyright year lists in new filesJim Meyering
* src/extent-scan.h: Update copyright year list. * src/extent-scan.c: Likewise. * tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Likewise.
2011-01-30copy, tee: assume EINTR is always defined: remove #ifdefsJim Meyering
Don't use "#ifdef EINTR". dd.c has been doing that since 2004. * src/copy.c (sparse_copy): Remove #ifdef...#endif around EINTR use. * src/tee.c (tee_files): Remove #ifdef...#endif around EINTR use. If we need it, add something like this in system.h: /* When EINTR is not defined, define it to an improbable value so that each use does not have to be #ifdef'd. */ #ifndef EINTR # define EINTR 999988 #endif
2011-01-30copy: make extent_copy use sparse_copy, rather than its own codeJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Before this change, extent_copy would fail to create holes, thus breaking --sparse=auto and --sparse=always. I.e., copying a large enough file of all zeros, cp --sparse=always should introduce a hole, but with extent_copy, it would not.
2011-01-30copy: remove obsolete commentJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (sparse_copy): Remove now-obsolete comment about how we used to work around lack of ftruncate. Combine nested if conditions into one.
2011-01-30copy: factor sparse-copying code into its own function, becauseJim Meyering
we're going to have to use it from within extent_copy, too. * src/copy.c (sparse_copy): New function, factored out of... (copy_reg): ...here. Remove now-unused locals.
2011-01-30fiemap copy: avoid leak-on-errorJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Don't leak an extent_scan buffer on failed lseek, read, or write.
2011-01-30fiemap copy: avoid a performance hit due to very small bufferJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Don't let what should have been a temporary reduction of buf_size (to handle a short ext_len) become permanent and thus impact the performance of all further iterations.
2011-01-30fiemap copy: simplify post-loop logic; improve commentsJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Avoid duplication in post-loop extend-to-desired-length code.
2011-01-30fiemap copy: rename some localsJim Meyering
(extent_copy): Rename locals: s/*ext_logical/*ext_start/
2011-01-30copy: don't allocate a separate buffer just for extent-based copyJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Move use of extent_scan to just *after* we allocate the main copying buffer, so we can... (extent_scan): Take a new parameter, BUF, and use that rather than allocating a private buffer. Update caller.
2011-01-30copy: tweak variable name; improve a commentJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Rename a variable to make more sense from caller's perspective: s/require_normal_copy/normal_copy_required/. This is an output-only variable, and the original name could make it look like an input (or i&o) variable.
2011-01-30copy: call extent_copy also when make_holes is false, ...Jim Meyering
so that we benefit from using extents also when reading a sparse input file with --sparse=never. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Remove erroneous test of "make_holes" so that we call extent_copy also when make_holes is false. Otherwise, what's the point of that parameter?
2011-01-30copy: remove else-after-goto and adjust indentationJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Remove useless else-after-goto.
2011-01-30extent-scan: adjust naming and formattingJim Meyering
* src/extent-scan.h [struct extent_scan]: Rename member: s/hit_last_extent/hit_final_extent/. "final" is clearer, since "last" can be interpreted as "preceding". Rename extent-scan functions to start with extent_scan_. * src/Makefile.am (copy_sources): Also distribute extent-scan.h. * src/extent-scan.c: Don't include error.h or quote.h. Neither is used. * src/copy.c: shorten a comment to fit in 80 columns * src/extent-scan.c, src/extent-scan.h: Correct formatting.
2011-01-30fiemap copy: don't let write failure go unreported; adjust style, etc.Jim Meyering
* src/copy.c (write_zeros): Add comments. (extent_copy): Move decls of "ok" and "i" down to scope where used. Adjust comments. Rename local: s/holes_len/hole_size/ Print a diagnostic upon failure to write zeros.
2011-01-30fiemap copy: add extent-scan.[ch], avoid a double-free and reorganizejeff.liu
Changes: ======== 1. fix write_zeros() per Jim's comments. 2. remove char const *fname from struct extent_scan. 3. change the signature of open_extent_scan() from "void open_extent_scan(struct extent_scan **scan)" to "void open_extent_scan(struct extent_scan *scan)" to avoid having to malloc the extent_scan variable; instead save it on the stack. 4. move close_extent_scan() from a function defined in extent-scan.c to extent-scan.h as a macro definition, but it does nothing for now, since initial extent scan defined at stack. 5. add a macro "free_extents_info()" defined at extent-scan.h to release the memory allocated to extent info which should be called combine with get_extents_info(), it just one line, so IMHO, define it as macro should be ok. * src/extent-scan.c: New file; functions to read "extents". * src/extent-scan.h: Header file of extent-scan.c. * src/Makefile.am: Reference it and link it to copy_source. * src/copy.c: Use the new functions and avoid double-free.
2011-01-30build: distribute new file, fiemap.hJim Meyering
* src/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Add fiemap.h.
2011-01-30copy.c: add FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC to fiemap ioctlJie Liu
* src/copy.c (fiemap_copy): Force kernel to sync the source file before mapping.
2011-01-30fiemap.h: include <stdint.h>, not <linux/types.h>Jim Meyering
* src/fiemap.h: Include stdint.h, not linux/types.h, now that this file uses only portable type names.
2011-01-30copy.c: ensure proper alignment of fiemap bufferPaul Eggert
* src/copy.c (fiemap_copy): Ensure that our fiemap buffer is large enough and well-aligned. Replace "0LL" with equivalent "0" as 3rd argument to lseek.
2011-01-30copy.c: adjust comments, tweak semanticsJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (fiemap_copy): Rename from fiemap_copy_ok. Add/improve comments. Remove local, "fail". (fiemap_copy): Do not require caller to set "normal_copy_required" before calling fiemap_copy. Report ioctl failure if it's the 2nd or subsequent call.
2011-01-30cp: copy sparse files efficiently using the FIEMAP ioctlJie Liu
* src/fiemap.h: Add fiemap.h for fiemap ioctl(2) support. Copied from linux's include/linux/fiemap.h, with minor formatting changes. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Now, when `cp' is invoked with --sparse=[WHEN], we will try to do FIEMAP-copy if the underlying file system supports it, and fall back to a normal copy if it fails.
2011-01-29join: don't report disorder against an empty filePádraig Brady
This allows one to use join as a field extractor like: join -a1 -o 1.3,1.1 - /dev/null * src/join.c (join): Don't flag unpairable lines when one of the files is empty. * tests/misc/join: Add a new test for empty input, and adjust a previous test that was only checking against empty input. * doc/coreutils.texi (join invocation): Document the change. * NEWS: Likewise.
2011-01-29join: ensure --header skips the order check with empty filesPádraig Brady
* src/join.c: Skip the header even if one of the files is empty. * tests/misc/join: Add a test case. * NEWS: Mention the fix
2011-01-29join: add -o 'auto' to output a constant number of fields per linePádraig Brady
Lines with a different number of fields than the first line, will be truncated or padded. * src/join.c (prfields): A new function refactored from prjoin(), to output all but the join field. (prjoin): Don't swap line1 and line2 when line1 is blank so that the padding is applied to the right place. (main): Handle the -o 'auto' option. * tests/misc/join: Add 6 new cases to test the auto format. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior. Suggestion from Assaf Gordon
2011-01-24split: avoid a new, spurious warning from gcc-4.6.0Jim Meyering
* src/split.c (lines_rr) [IF_LINT]: Initialize files, now that rawhide's gcc-4.6.0 would otherwise warn about use-uninitialized.
2011-01-24tail: avoid new diagnostic when applying -f to a pipe on linux-2.3.38Jim Meyering
* src/tail.c (fremote): Do not print a diagnostic when fstatfs (pipe_FD, &buf) fails, as it now does on linux-2.3.38. This avoids the spurious failure of tests/misc/tail's f-pipe-1 test, when running in input-from-pipe mode.
2011-01-17uniq: replace a wasteful loop with simple calculationJim Meyering
* src/uniq.c (find_field): Remove the byte-skipping loop altogether. Instead, perform the simple calculation. This results in a 10% performance improvement for large byte offsets.
2011-01-17uniq: don't continue field processing after end of lineSami Kerola
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. * src/uniq.c (find_field): Stop processing loop when end of line is reached. Before this fix, 'uniq -f 10000000000 /etc/passwd' would run for a very long time.
2011-01-14maint: refactor to use read-file from gnulibPádraig Brady
* bootstrap.conf: Add the read-file module * src/ptx.c: Replace the original code which would needlessly read SIZE_MAX bytes of files larger than this. * src/shuf.c: Replace the original code.
2011-01-13maint: trivial system header file cleanupsPádraig Brady
* src/system.h: Note where it should be included, and make ordering check portable to GLIBC > 2 * src/copy.c: Move <sys/ioctl.h> along with other system headers as is done elsewhere. * src/install.c: Move <sys/wait.h> along with other system headers as is done elsewhere. * src/ptx.c: Include <regex.h> rather than "regex.h" as is done elsewhere. Note <regex.h> is kept after "system.h" as per commit dba300a0.
2011-01-11rm: ignore errno related to invalid file namesNadav Har'El
* src/remove.c (nonexistent_file_errno): Also skip EINVAL and EILSEQ, for at least smbfs rejection of '*' in file names. * NEWS: Mention the fix.
2011-01-10du: don't abort when a subdir is renamed during traversalJim Meyering
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. * src/du.c (prev_level): Move declaration "up" to file-scope global. (du_files): Reset prev_level to 0 upon abnormal fts_read termination. Reported by Johathan Nieder in http://bugs.debian.org/609049 Also, improve a diagnostic. * tests/du/move-dir-while-traversing: Test for the above. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
2011-01-07maint: suppress some clang scan-build warningsPádraig Brady
* src/pr.c (char_to_clump): Remove a dead store. * src/remove.c (fts_skip_tree): Likewise. * src/sort.c (key_warnings): Likewise. (sort): Suppress an uninitialized pointer warning.
2011-01-07maint: replace uses of ignore_ptr with ignore_valuePádraig Brady
* gnulib: Update for enhanced ignore_value() * src/chcon.c (process_file): Don't use the deprecated ignore_ptr. * src/chmod.c (process_file): Likewise. * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Likewise.
2011-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2010-12-30split: fix the suffix length calculationPádraig Brady
* src/split.c (set_suffix_length): Only auto-calculate the suffix length when the number of files is specified. * tests/misc/split-a: Add a case to trigger the bug, and exercise the suffix length auto-calculation. * NEWS: Mention the fix. Reported by Dmitry V. Levin and Sergey Vlasov at https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24841
