2011-05-27chown,chgrp: output the original ownership in -v messagesPádraig Brady
* src/chown-core.c (describe_change): Output the original owner if possible. (user_group_str): Handle the case when neither owner or group are passed. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
2011-05-27chown,chgrp: output the correct ownership in -v messagesPádraig Brady
* src/chown_core.c (describe_change): Accept the ownership of the original file and output that when not changing. This is significant when --from is specified as then the original and specified ownership may be different. (user_group_str): A new helper function refactored from describe_change(). (change_file_owner): Pass the original user and group strings to describe_change(). * test/chown/basic: Add a test case. * NEWS: Mention the fix.
2011-05-27maint: fix a -Wstrict-overflow build failure with gcc 4.5Pádraig Brady
* src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): Avoid the warning by not decrementing the integer.
2011-05-26maint: accommodate gcc's -Wstrict-overflow optionJim Meyering
* src/factor.c (factor_using_pollard_rho): Change type of "i" to unsigned to avoid warning from gcc's -Wstrict-overflow. * src/expr.c: Use an unsigned intermediate. * src/dircolors.c (main): Reorder operations to avoid the risk of pointer overflow. * src/tr.c (squeeze_filter): Change NOT_A_CHAR from an anonymous "enum" to an "int", to avoid this warning: tr.c:1624:10: error: assuming signed overflow does not occur when simplifying conditional to constant [-Werror=strict-overflow] * src/pr.c (main): Make index "i" unsigned.
2011-05-26maint: enforce cpp indentation policyJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (sc_preprocessor_indentation): New test, from libvirt. Exempt 3 files from new cppi test. * gl/lib/randread.c: Adjust cpp indentation to comply. * src/extent-scan.c (extent_need_sync): Likewise.
2011-05-26maint: env.c: remove unnecessary use of strchrJim Meyering
* src/env.c (main): Remove excess (and confusing to static analyzers) use of strchr.
2011-05-26shred: placate coverity and fix a commentJim Meyering
* src/shred.c (incname): Add an assertion to tell static analyzers that we know this particular use of strchr never returns NULL. Finish incomplete sentence in function-describing comment.
2011-05-26maint: split: remove --filter specific code from other pathsPádraig Brady
* src/split.c (lines_chunk_split): Don't use ignore_error() which is redundant and confusing when not running with --filter. (lines_rr): Likewise. (ofile_open): Likewise. Add a comment to clarify that filters aren't restarted under file descriptor pressure.
2011-05-26split: diagnose when --filter is used with a chunk numberPádraig Brady
* src/split.c (main): Exit with a diagnostic if --filter is specified along with a specific chunk number. * test/split/filter: Ensure this combination fails.
2011-05-26split: exit when we can no longer write to a --filterPádraig Brady
* src/split.c (bytes_split): Stop reading when we can no longer write to a child process. (lines_rr): Likewise. (lines_bytes_split): No change is made here since input is bounded by the original file size. * test/split/filter: Add test cases.
2011-05-26split: return success even if a --filter exitsPádraig Brady
src/split.c (main): Don't unblock SIGPIPE before cleanup, as then any pending signals will be sent and cause the main split process to exit with a non zero status (141). * test/split/filter: Add a test for this case.
2011-05-25split: fix an edge case where -n l/... creates an extra filePádraig Brady
* src/split.c (lines_bytes_chunk): Handle the edge case where the file is truncated as we read. * tests/misc/split-lchunk: Cleanup; no functional change.
2011-05-25chmod: output the original mode in verbose modeBernhard Voelker
* src/chmod.c (describe_change): Pass in the original mode, and output this in the messages. * tests/chmod/c-option: Adjust as per the new message. * THANKS.in: Remove the now auto-generated name. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior. Signed-off-by: Pádraig Brady <P@draigBrady.com>
2011-05-25maint: accommodate gnulib's newer tight_scope ruleJim Meyering
* cfg.mk: Include via "-include", to accommodate new tight-scope rule. (sc_check-AUTHORS): Change the name of the rule in src/Makefile.am to _sc_check-AUTHORS, so it doesn't conflict with this one when this file is included into the sub-make's context. * src/Makefile.am (_sc_check-AUTHORS): Rename from sc_check-AUTHORS. * gnulib: Update to latest.
2011-05-25touch: placate static analyzers: no NULL-deref is possibleJim Meyering
* src/touch.c (main): Avoid even the hint of possibility that we'd dereference NULL upon localtime failure. Coverity reported the potential, but it appears not to be possible, since posixtime rejects any time for which the subsequent localtime would return NULL. See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.general/1253
2011-05-24split: fix cases where -n l/... creates extraneous filesPádraig Brady
* src/split.c (lines_chunk_split): Ensure that data is only written to stdout when k specified. Also ensure that extra files are not created when there is more data available than reported in the file size. * tests/misc/split-lchunk: Verify that split -n l/k/n doesn't generate any files, and that -n l/n always generates n files. * NEWS: Mention the fix.
2011-05-24doc: add a missing space in timeout --helpStéphane Raimbault
* src/timeout.c (usage): Add a space to be consistent with other uses of "(the default)" in the documentation. Signed-off-by: Pádraig Brady <P@draigBrady.com>
2011-05-21maint: fix comment typos in df.cIvan Sichmann Freitas
* src/df.c: s/Optain/Obtain/
2011-05-19maint: correct typos involving misuse of "a" and "an"Jim Meyering
* NEWS: "an misleading" * src/expr.c: "a integer * src/ptx.c (find_occurs_in_text): "a end" * src/shred.c (do_wipefd): "a infinite" * src/sort.c (SUBTHREAD_LINES_HEURISTIC): "an dual-core" (compare_random): "an checksum" * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Update, since the typo was in old news.
2011-05-18printf: fix an out-of-bounds memory accessPádraig Brady
* src/printf.c (STRTOX): Don't access memory after a string containing a single quote character. * tests/misc/printf: Add tests for various combinations of single quote characters combined with a numeric format. * THANKS.in: Add bug reporter. * NEWS: Mention the fix. Reported-by: Paul Marinescu <paul.marinescu@imperial.ac.uk>
2011-05-17doc: mention that ls time ordering is newest firstPádraig Brady
* src/ls.c (usage): Add the "newest first" info to the -t and -c options
2011-05-13ls: allow stat-free use of --colorJim Meyering
Even on a system with d_type support, the default use of --color makes ls stat every file in order to be able to honor settings like EXEC, STICKY, ORPHAN, SETUID, etc., because those settings require information that is not provided by dirent.d_type. However, if for a potentially large performance gain, you are willing to disable those settings, you can now make ls --color give type-related coloring and perform no stat calls at all (other than the unavoidable call-per- command-line argument). Before this change, even with all of those attributes disabled, ls --color would still stat every directory. Now, we're down to the minimum of one stat call per command-line arg. * src/ls.c (gobble_file): With --color, don't stat a non-command-line-specified directory when no directory-coloring attribute is enabled. * tests/init.cfg (require_dirent_d_type_): New function. * tests/d_type-check: New script, mostly from Pádraig Brady. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it. * tests/ls/stat-free-color: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * doc/coreutils.texi (General output formatting): Describe how to use dircolors to make ls --color refrain from calling stat on a d_type-enabled file system. Prompted by a query from Josef Bacik.
2011-05-12maint: use <unistd.h>, not "group-member.h"Jim Meyering
gnulib's group-member module now ensures that the group_member function is declared in <unistd.h>, just like it is glibc. * lib/euidaccess-stat.c: Remove inclusion of "group-member.h". * src/chgrp.c: Likewise.
2011-05-11maint: remove syntax-checking sc_tight_scope ruleJim Meyering
* src/Makefile.am (sc_tight_scope): Remove rule. Now it's provided via gnulib's maint.mk. * cfg.mk (sc_tight_scope): Likewise.
2011-05-11maint: tail: mark a global variable as staticJim Meyering
* src/tail.c [HAVE_INOTIFY] (inotify_wd_mask): Declare static.
2011-05-08maint: remove -Wmissing-field-initializers workaroundsPádraig Brady
* configure.ac: Rather than disabling -Wmissing-field-initializers, use the fact that gnulib now disables it automatically when required (on versions of GCC older than 4.7). * src/system.h: Remove the no longer needed DECLARE_ZEROED_AGGREGATE. * src/ls.c: Likewise. * src/pathchk.c: Likewise. * src/shred.c: Likewise. * src/stty.c: Likewise. * src/wc.c: Likewise.
2011-05-06split: accept new output --filter=CMD optionKarl Heuer
* src/split.c: Include <signal.h>, <sys/wait.h> and "sig2str.h". (FILTER_OPTION): New anonymous enum member. (filter_command, filter_pid): New globals. (open_pipes, open_pipes_alloc, n_open_pipes): Likewise. (oldblocked, newblocked): Likewise. (longopts): Add "filter". (usage): Document --filter. (create): Extend to create a pipe and fork "sh -c CMD". (closeout): Adapt to close a pipe and wait for child process. (cwrite): Call closeout, not just close. (lines_chunk_split): FIXME (bytes_chunk_extract): FIXME (opid, ofile_open, lines_rr, main): FIXME (ignorable): New function, to encapsulate EPIPE test.
2011-05-06sort: fix a contradictory --debug warningPádraig Brady
* src/sort.c (key_warn): `sort -k2,1n --debug` would output warnings about being both "zero width" and "spanning multiple fields". Suppress the latter one. * tests/misc/sort-debug-warn: Add a couple of test cases.
2011-05-05df: fix crash in mem exhaustion edge casePádraig Brady
* src/df.c (print_table): Don't try to output NULL if ambsalign() can't allocate memory. Instead just output the unaligned text.
2011-05-03copy: fix my typoJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Fix my typo (mis-applied patch). The patch by Jeff Liu was fine, but I mis-applied it and introduced a compilation error in commit efa479c1. 2011-05-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
2011-05-03copy: correct misuse of quote in diagnosticJeff Liu
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Multiple uses of quote (s) in an argument list is erroneous. Use quote_n, instead.
2011-04-30maint: adjust split.c formatting to conformJim Meyering
* src/split.c (usage): Correct indentation. (ofile_open): Likewise. (create): "char *name", not "char* name". (struct of_info) [ofile]: Similar. (parse_chunk): Add spaces around "+".
2011-04-26maint: tweak sc_tight_scope ruleJim Meyering
* src/Makefile.am (sc_tight_scope): Remove useless quotes, change 1>&2 to >&2, and combine a few short lines.
2011-04-26dd: work around compilation failure on AIX 5.1 and 5.2Jim Meyering
* src/dd.c (O_NOCACHE): Undefine. This symbol is defined via AIX's <fcntl.h>, yet used as an enum name in dd.c. Reported by Gary V. Vaughan in http://debbugs.gnu.org/8555 * NEWS (Portability): Mention this.
2011-04-26maint: move two small functions, so we can remove a fwd declJim Meyering
* src/dd.c (cleanup, quit): Move the definition of quit to follow the definition of process_signals, so we can remove the declaration of the latter.
2011-04-25maint: change some leading 8-space sequences to TABs in a Makefile.amJim Meyering
src/Makefile.am (fs-magic, fs-kernel-magic): Change some leading 8-space sequences to TABs.
2011-04-25stat: recognize V9FS and ECRYPTFS file systemsJim Meyering
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add magic numbers for V9FS and ECRYPTFS.
2011-04-25tail --follow=name no longer implies --retryJim Meyering
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Just as without inotify, tail --follow=name now terminates when the last tailed-by-name file is unlinked or moved aside. This bug was introduced on 2009-06-15 via commit ae494d4b, "tail: use inotify if it is available". Reported by Tim Underwood in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/22286 * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention this. * tests/tail-2/follow-name: Test for this. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
2011-04-25copy: include both src and dest names in clone failure diagnosticJeff Liu
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Upon btrfs clone failure, print not just the destination file name, but also the source file name. That may be useful upon failure of a cross-device clone attempt.
2011-04-25doc: tail/inotify does use --sleep-interval=S, with --pid=PJim Meyering
* doc/coreutils.texi (tail invocation): Mention it. * src/tail.c (usage): Likewise. (tail_forever_inotify): Clarify comment.
2011-04-20copy: use FIEMAP (extent_copy) only for apparently-sparse files,Jim Meyering
to avoid the expense of extent_copy's unconditional use of FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Do not attempt extent_copy on a file that appears to have no holes. * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Document this. At first I labeled this as a bug fix, but that would be inaccurate, considering there is no documentation of FIEMAP semantics, nor even consensus among kernel FS developers. Here's hoping SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA support will soon make it into the linux kernel.
2011-04-20copy: factor out a tiny sparse-testing functionJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLOCKS): Define to 0 if undefined, so we can use it in the return expression, here: (is_probably_sparse): New function, factored out of... (copy_reg): ...here. Use the new function.
2011-04-20copy: do not treat unwritten extents specially: avoid XFS/ext4 data lossJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (extent_copy): Do not treat "unwritten extents" specially. Otherwise, with a release-candidate 2.6.39-rc3 kernel, XFS or ext4, when using gold as your linker, and if you forget to run "make check", you could end up installing files full of zeros instead of the expected binaries. For a lot of discussion, see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.xfs.general/37895 * tests/cp/fiemap-empty: Disable this test.
2011-04-20copy: always use FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC, for nowJim Meyering
* src/extent-scan.c (extent_need_sync): Always return true, to make the sole caller always use FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC. This will doubtless have an undesirable performance impact, but we'll mitigate that shortly, by using extent_copy only on files with holes.
2011-04-17dircolors: add .ear, .war, .sar, for Java jar-like archivesOndřej Vašík
* src/dircolors.hin: Add .ear, .war, .sar, for Java jar-like archives Suggested by Ville Skyttä in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/616497.
2011-04-12maint: remove unnecessary inclusion of <stdio.h>Jim Meyering
* src/extent-scan.c: Don't include <stdio.h>. It was not used.
2011-04-11maint: install: remove support for --preserve_context ("_", not "-")Jim Meyering
* src/install.c: Its use has elicited a warning for two years. Use --preserve-context instead. * NEWS (changes in behavior): Mention this.
2011-04-11maint: reorder install.c to eliminate declarations of static functionsJim Meyering
* src/install.c: Remove static function declarations.
2011-04-11maint: rename variables for clarity...Jim Meyering
and to avoid a false-positive "TO to" in new doubled word check. * src/install.c (change_timestamps): Rename parameters for readability. Make the comment match the code.
2011-04-11maint: remove doubled words in comments, e.g., s/to to/to/Jim Meyering
* tests/ls/color-norm: s/to to/to/ * gl/lib/mbsalign.h (mbs_align_t): s/or or/or/ * src/extent-scan.c (extent_scan_read): s/the the/the/ * src/libstdbuf.c: s/the the/the/ * tests/misc/stdbuf: s/on on/on/ * ChangeLog-2005: s/for\n\tfor /for\n\t/
