2009-08-06dd: work around buffer length restrictions with oflag=direct (O_DIRECT)Jim Meyering
dd oflag=direct would fail to copy a file with size that is not a multiple of 512 (destination file system specific) * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. * src/dd.c (iwrite): Turn off O_DIRECT for any smaller-than-obs-sized write. Don't bother to restore it. * tests/dd/direct: New test for the above. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dd/direct. * doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Mention oflag=direct buffer size restriction. Details in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/17586 Reported by Eric Sandeen.
2009-08-04cp -pP (and e.g., -a): preserve time stamps on symlinks, tooJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (utimensat_if_possible): New function. (copy_internal): Remove variable, "preserve_metadata". Replace with "dest_is_symlink". That covers all cases but one: the one in which cp --link has created hard links to non-directories. In that case, there is no need to update attributes of the links. Use utimensat_if_possible, to preserve timestamps of symlinks. * NEWS (New features): Mention this. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp/preserve-slink-time. * tests/cp/preserve-slink-time: New file. * m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): Test for utimensat.

2009-04-22cp: work around linux kernel bug: short-read != EOF on /procJim Meyering
Remove the optimization that avoided up to 50% of cp's read syscalls. Do not assume that a short read on a regular file indicates EOF. When reading from a file in /proc on linux [at least 2.6.9 - 2.6.29] into a 4k-byte buffer or larger, a short read does not always indicate EOF. For example, "cp /proc/slabinfo /tmp" copies only 4068 of the total 7493 bytes. This optimization (25719a33154f0c62ea9881f0c79ae312dd4cec7a, Improve performance a bit by optimizing away; 2005-11-24) appears to have been worth less than a 2% speed-up (and usually much less), so the impact of removing it is negligible. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't exit the loop early. * tests/cp/proc-short-read: New test, lightly based on a suggestion from Mike Frysinger, to exercise this fix. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp/proc-short-read. * NEWS (Improve robustness): Mention this change.
2009-04-09id: fix infinite loop on some systemsPádraig Brady
Steven Parkes reported that `id -G $USER` went into an infinite loop on Darwin systems for users in more than 10 groups: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=264007 * gl/lib/mgetgroups.c (mgetgroups): Work around buggy getgrouplist implementations that don't update the required size correctly, by doubling the result buffer and retrying. Also return the parameter updated by getgrouplist rather than its return value, as the documentation doesn't actually state the number of groups stored is returned by getgrouplist. * tests/misc/id-groups: Add test to exercise this logic * tests/Makefile.am: Reference new test * NEWS: Mention the fix * THANKS: Update
2009-04-03ls: fix alignment when month names have varying widthsPádraig Brady
Reported by Samuel Thibault and Stéphane Raimbault, as the glibc fr_FR locale has recently changed to use the official but variable width abbreviated month names. Other glibc locales also have variable widths. http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-locales/2008-q1/msg00035.html http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9859 * NEWS: Mention the fix * gl/lib/mbsalign.c: A new module to align and truncate a string in a specified number of screen cells, while handling multi-byte characters appropriately. * gl/lib/mbsalign.h: Ditto * gl/modules/mbsalign: Ditto * bootstrap.conf: Reference the new module * src/ls.c (abmon_init): New function, precompute the abbreviated months aligned left in a minimum width column <= 5 screen cells. (align_nstrftime): New function, replace the first %b in the format specification to strftime with the precomputed month string. Note using the cached month strings speeds up `ls -lU` by around 17% on glibc-2.7-2 on linux at least. Also if we implement this function using heap storage rather than automatic storage, and use snprintf instead of strcpy, ls will slow down by 2% and 1% respectively (i.e. a net gain of 14% rather than 17%). * tests/ls/abmon-align: A new test to test ls alignment for various formats and locales * tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test
2009-03-31tests: enable automake's color-tests and parallel-tests via configure.acJim Meyering
* gnulib-tests/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Don't define here. * tests/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Likewise. * configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Instead, add color-tests and parallel-tests here.
2009-03-31build: use Automake's new parallel-tests featureRalf Wildenhues
* build-aux/check.mk: Remove, not needed any more. * tests/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Add parallel-tests and color-tests. * tests/check.mk: Do not include build-aux/check.mk any more.

Reported by Paul D. Smith, in savannah bug 24949.
2009-03-18tests: add another sort/nmerge testPaul Eggert
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add sort-merge-fdlimit. * tests/misc/sort-merge-fdlimit: New file. * doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Document that we now silently lower nmerge if necessary. Patch by Paul Eggert, Nima Nikzad, Max Chang, Alexander Nguyen, Sahil Amoli, and Nick Graham.
2009-03-18sort: handle fd exhaustion better when mergingPaul Eggert
This is an alternative to my 9 March patch labeled "Silently lower nmerge; don't (sometimes incorrectly) range-check" <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2009-03/msg00070.html>. It differs by not using 'dup' to probe for extra file descriptors; instead, it simply calls 'open' (and 'pipe') to open files and pipes, until one of these calls fails due to file descriptor exhaustion; it then backs off by 1, does a merge with the files that it has opened, and then retries with the (now-smaller) number of files. This patch requires quite a few more changes to the source code than the earlier patch, but it is in some sense "better" because it doesn't need to call "dup" ahead of time in order to decide whether "open" or "pipe" will fail. Also, it's more robust in the case where "open" or "pipe" fails with errno==EMFILE because some system-wide limit is exhausted. * src/sort.c (create_temp_file): New arg SURVIVE_FD_EXHAUSTION. (stream_open): New function, containing guts of xfopen. (xfopen): Use it. (pipe_fork): Set errno on failure. (maybe_create_temp): New function, containing guts of create_temp. (create_temp): Use it. (open_temp): Distinguish failures due to file descriptor exhaustion from other failures, and on fd exhaustion return a notice to caller rather than dying. Don't test execlp's return value; when it returns, it *always* returns -1. (open_input_files): New function. (mergefps): New arg FPS. It's now the caller's responsibility to open the input and output files. All callers changed. (mergefiles): New function. (avoid_trashing_input, merge): Handle the case where a single merge can't merge as much as we wanted due to file descriptor exhaustion, by merging as much as we can and then retrying. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add misc/sort-continue. * tests/misc/sort-continue: New file. * THANKS: Add Glen Lenker and Matt Pham who coauthored this patch.
2009-03-11cat: Fix immediate output of processed dataPádraig Brady
Introduced by commit 790892db, 2006-06-08 "Ensure that cat works ...". * NEWS: Mention the bugfix. * src/cat.c (cat): Fix the typo which stopped the writing of processed data before a blocking read() is done. * tests/misc/cat-buf: Add to ensure processed data is not buffered. * tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
2009-02-17install: add --compare (-C) option to install file only when necessaryKamil Dudka
* src/install.c (have_same_content): New function to compare files content. (extra_mode): New function checking for non-permission bits in mode. (need_copy): New function to check if copy is necessary. (main): Handle new option --compare (-C). (copy_file): Skip file copying if not necessary. (usage): Show new option --compare (-C) in --help. * tests/install/install-C: Basic tests for install --compare (-C). * tests/install/install-C-root: Tests requiring root privileges. * tests/install/install-C-selinux: Tests requiring SELinux. * tests/Makefile.am: Add new tests for install --compare (-C). * doc/coreutils.texi: Document new install option --compare (-C). * NEWS: Mention the change.
2009-02-10ls: clean up after wrapped+colored file names with clear-to-EOLJim Meyering
This change addresses a relatively unusual case: ls --color, with a highlighted name being printed initially in the last row of a terminal emulator (possibly followed by other lines of output) such that it is wrapped onto the following line, as the terminal emulator scrolls the output. That would cause the entire following line to be highlighted, even if the name happened to use only one position. The least-invasive patch would have made colorized output larger for all uses. The approach taken below is more invasive, but limits the increase in overhead to only those lines that are expected to wrap. * src/ls.c (enum indicator_no): Add C_CLR_TO_EOL. (indicator_name): Add "cl". (color_indicator): Add default escape codes for "cl". (print_long_format): Propagate width to print_name_with_quoting. (print_name_with_quoting): Print new C_CLR_TO_EOL string if needed. Return the width of what we're printing. (print_file_name_and_frills): Propagate width. (print_type_indicator): Return bool (aka width). (print_many_per_line): Pass column position to print_* function. (print_current_files): Likewise. (print_horizontal): Likewise. (print_with_commas): Likewise. * src/dircolors.c (slack_codes): Add "CLRTOEOL". (ls_codes): Add "cl". * tests/ls/color-clear-to-eol: New file. Test for this fix. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add ls/color-clear-to-eol. * THANKS: Update. Reported by Alexander V. Lukyanov. See thread for details: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/740021/focus=14824 Thanks to Jan Engelhardt for helping me reproduce the problem.

2009-01-28dd: Better handle user specified offsets that are too bigPádraig Brady
Following are the before and after operations for seekable files, for the various erroneous offsets handled by this patch: skip beyond end of file before: immediately exit(0); after : immediately printf("cannot skip to specified offset"); exit(0); skip > max file size before: read whole file and exit(0); after : immediately printf("cannot skip: Invalid argument"); exit(1); seek > max file size before: immediately printf("truncate error: EFBIG"); exit(1); after : immediately printf("truncate error: EFBIG"); exit(1); skip > OFF_T_MAX before: read whole device/file and exit(0); after : immediately printf("cannot skip:"); exit(1); seek > OFF_T_MAX before: immediately printf("truncate error: offset too large"); exit(1); after : immediately printf("truncate error: offset too large"); exit(1); skip > device size before: read whole device and exit(0); after : immediately printf("cannot skip: Invalid argument"); exit(1); seek > device size before: read whole device and printf("write error: ENOSPC"); exit(1); after : immediately printf("cannot seek: Invalid argument"); exit(1); * NEWS: Summarize this change in behavior. * src/dd.c (skip): Add error checking for large seek/skip offsets on seekable files, rather than deferring to using read() to advance offset. (dd_copy): Print a warning if skip past EOF, as per FIXME comment. * test/Makefile.am: Add 2 new tests. * tests/dd/seek-skip-past-file: Add tests for first 3 cases above. * tests/dd/seek-skip-past-dev: Add root only test for last case above.

2008-11-22tests: dd: add a test for the required behaviorJim Meyering
* tests/dd/reblock: New file. Test for the required functionality. Based on an example and discussion from this thread: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2008-11/msg00153.html * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dd/reblock.
2008-11-20cp: use far less memory in some casesJim Meyering
cp --link was "remembering" many name,dev,inode triples unnecessarily. cp was doing the same, even without --link, for every directory in the source hierarchy, while it can do its job with entries merely for the command-line arguments. Prompted by a report from Patrick Shoenfeld. Details <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/15081>. * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Refrain from remembering name,dev,inode for most files, when invoked via cp --link. Record an infloop-avoidance triple for each directory specified on the command line, not for each directory in the source tree. Don't record a dir-triple when x->hard_link is set. * NEWS (Buf fixes): Mention it. * tests/cp/link-heap: New file. Test for cp's lowered memory usage. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add link-heap.

2008-09-27rm -r: avoid O(n^2) performance for a directory with very many entriesJim Meyering
This enhancement works around a problem that is specific to at least ext3 and ext4 file systems. With them, it would take hours to remove a two-million-entry directory. RAM-backed file systems (tmpfs) are not affected, since there is no seek penalty. * remove.c (rm_malloc, rm_free, compare_ino): New functions. (dirent_count, preprocess_dir): New function. [struct readdir_data]: New struct. (remove_cwd_entries): Call preprocess_dir. * tests/rm/ext3-perf: New file. Test for the performance fix. * NEWS: mention the new feature
