* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove 'tests'.
(include): The '$(top_srcdir)/tests/local.mk' file.
(check-root): Remove this convenience target, it's no longer needed
now that the "real" check-root target once in 'tests/Makefile' will
land in the top-level makefile.
* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove 'tests/Makefile'.
* tests/Makefile.am: Rename ...
* tests/local.mk: ... like this, with a lot of adjustments.
* tests/init.cfg: Move ...
* init.cfg: ... here. This is necessary, for a limitation of the
gnulib-provided 'tests/init.sh', which unconditionally look for
'init.cfg' in the $(srcdir) directory.
* tests/*/*.sh: Adjust: expect init.sh to be in '$srcdir/tests',
not in '$srcdir', and extend $PATH with './src', not with '../src'.
* tests/Coreutils.pm: Adjust similarly.
* tests/pr/pr-tests.pl ($pfx): Likewise.
|
|
This is just a preparatory refactoring in view of future changes.
* configure.ac (AC_SUBST): New 'built_programs'.
* tests/Makefile.am (AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Simply define the exported
variable 'built_programs' to the expansion of the '$(built_programs)'
AC_SUBST'd make variable.
(.built-programs): Remove this now-unneeded convenience target.
(CLEANFILES, check_DATA): Delete, no longer needed.

* tests/Makefile.am (root-hint): Here. The interested user can see
the reasons why some tests are skipped by looking at the messages
they display on the console; here's an excerpt:
...
PASS: misc/id-groups.sh
id-setgid.sh: skipped test: must be run as root
SKIP: misc/id-setgid.sh
PASS: misc/md5sum.pl
...
PASS: df/total-verify.sh
2g.sh: skipped test: very expensive: disabled by default
SKIP: du/2g.sh
...
Clear enough, and more specific and precise that a generic "some tests
might need to be run as root" message. And if that user is interested
in making those tests run anyway, he'll just take a look to the README
files to look for info. So there's no reason to pollute the stdout
with another "hint" that is subsumed by those messages, and that might
go unnoticed anyway.
Moreover, and possibly more importantly, that hint wasn't being
displayed anyway, even before this change! That's because the
'root-hint' target was listed as prerequisite for the 'check-recursive'
target, which however was not a dependency of the 'check' target in
'tests/Makefile.am', because that file contains no $(SUBDIRS)
definition.

|
* tests/Makefile.am (vc_exe_in_TESTS): Adjust to look, in the 'tests/'
subdirectory, for files that have one of the extensions listed in
$(TEST_EXTENSIONS), rather than for executable files.
|
|
* tests/Makefile.am (vc_exe_in_TESTS): It is easy to adjust this
recipe to also work in VPATH setups, also thanks to modifications
done by previous changes.
|
|
* tests/Makefile.am (vc_exe_in_TESTS): No need to depend on Makefile:
this target is .PHONY, so it is always run anyway.
|
|
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Rename ...
(all_tests): ... like this, so that we'll still be able to know the
complete list of our tests even if the user overrides TESTS from the
command line (which he's allowed to do by the test harness API).
(root_tests): Rename ...
(all_root_tests): ... like this, for similar reasons.
(TESTS, root_tests): Redefine their defaults to to $(all_tests) and
$(all_root_tests) respectively.
(vc_exe_in_TESTS): It can now safely use $(all_tests) to get the
complete list of test cases according to the Makefile, instead of
having to resort to "parsing" of Makefile.am.
(EXTRA_DIST): Use $(all_tests), not $(TESTS).
(v_, w_): Delete, no longer needed.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
* 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.
|

* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Drop 'check.mk', which has been
removed (being merged into 'tests/Makefile.am') by recent changes.

It's now easier and faster to simply run the perl ans shell test
scripts directly with the appropriate interpreter and options.
* tests/shell-or-perl: Delete.
* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove it.
(SH_LOG_COMPILER): Re-define to invoke the correct shell.
(PL_LOG_COMPILER): Re-define to invoke the correct perl
interpreter ...
(TESTSUITE_PERL_OPTIONS): ... with the correct options.
(XPL_LOG_COMPILER): Use those options instead of inlining
their expansion.
(LOG_COMPILER): Delete, no longer needed.

Not only this shrinks the size of the generated Makefile (from > 6300
lines to ~3000), but will allow further simplifications in future
changes.
* tests/Makefile.am (TEST_EXTENSIONS): Add '.sh' and '.pl'.
(PL_LOG_COMPILER, SH_LOG_COMPILER): New, still defined simply to
$(LOG_COMPILER) for the time being.
(TESTS, root_tests): Adjust as described.
* All tests: Rename as described.
|
|
* configure.ac (AM_CONDITIONAL): Set the conditional 'HAVE_PERL' to
true if the configure-time checks (as run by gl_PERL) have been able
to find a working perl.
* tests/no-perl: New script, report a diagnostic about "missing perl"
and exit with status 77.
* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute it.
(TESTSUITE_PERL): New, define to '$(PERL)' if a perl interpreter has
been found at configure time (i.e., if the 'HAVE_PERL' automake
conditional is true), and to '$(srcdir)/no-perl' otherwise.
(LOG_COMPILER): Use $(TESTSUITE_PERL) instead of $(PERL).
(XPL_LOG_COMPILER): Likewise.
* tests/shell-or-perl: Simplify: no need to actually check whether
perl is working.
|
|
* tests/rm/fail-eperm: Rename ...
* tests/rm/fail-eperm.xpl: ... like this
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Adjust.
(TEST_EXTENSIONS): New, list '.xpl'.
(XPL_TEST_LOGS): New, run a perl test in tainted mode.
* tests/shell-or-perl: Simplify this script: we no longer need to
parse the shebang line and adjust the flags in the perl invocation
accordingly.
|
|
The latter should be reserved for user overrides.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Rename ...
(AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): ... like this.
|
|
The separation has become unnecessary after all the ancient
'tests/*/Makefile.am' makefiles have been merged into the
"more-top-level" one 'tests/Makefile.am'.
* tests/check.mk: Merge ...
* tests/Makefile.am: ... in here. Some comments tweaking while
at it.
|
|
* 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.

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.

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 '?'.

* 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.

In order for ls --color to color each symlink, it must form the name
of each referent and then stat it to see if the link is dangling, to
a directory, to a file, etc. When the symlink is to a relative name,
ls must concatenate the starting directory name and that relative name.
When, in addition, the starting directory was "/" or "/some-name",
the result was ill-formed, and the subsequent stat would usually fail,
making the caller color it as a dangling symlink.
* src/ls.c (make_link_name): Don't botch the case in which
dir_name(NAME) == "/" and LINKNAME is relative.

... i.e., don't use the getpw* functions.
Before this change, running groups or id with no user name argument
would include a group name or ID from /etc/passwd. Thus, under unusual
circumstances (default group is changed, but has not taken effect for a
given session), those programs could print a name or ID that is neither
real nor effective.
To demonstrate, run this:
echo 'for i in 1 2; do id -G; sleep 1.5; done' \
|su -s /bin/sh ftp - &
sleep 1; perl -pi -e 's/^(ftp:x:\d+):(\d+)/$1:9876/' /etc/passwd
Those id -G commands printed the following:
50
50 9876
With this change, they print this:
50
50
Similarly, running those programs set-GID could make them
print one ID too many.
* src/group-list.c (print_group_list): When username is NULL, pass
egid, not getpwuid(ruid)->pw_gid), to xgetgroups, per the API

detailed a couple of bugs in gnulib's canonicalize that were visible
through coreutils' readlink, but only on systems where // is distinct
from /. This particular test assumes the POSIX fix which requires
canonicalization of a symlink containing just slashes to behave as
if slashes separating the symlink from the rest of the name are
elided (see http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=541), as that is
the only useful (and current) behavior on Cygwin. That is,
