2013-11-07cp: fix --link regarding the dereferencing of symbolic linksGian Piero Carrubba
* src/copy.c (create_hard_link): Add a bool 'dereference' parameter, and pass AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW as 'flags' to linkat() when dereference is true. (should_dereference): Add new 'bool' function to determine if a file should be dereferenced or not. (copy_internal): Use the above new should_dereference() and remember its return value in a new local bool 'dereference' variable. Use that in all three calls to create_hard_link(). * src/cp.c (main): after parsing the options, if x.dereference is still DEFEF_UNDEFINED and the x.recursive is true, then only set x.dereference to DEREF_NEVER iff --link was not specified. * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Mention that cp(1) does not follow symbolic links in the source when --link is specified. Likewise in the description of the -R option when used together with that option. * tests/cp/same-file.sh: Adapt the expected results for the -fl, the -bl and the -bfl tests. * tests/cp/link-deref.sh: Add a new test. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Reference the above new test. * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the change. This fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/15173 Co-authored-by: Bernhard Voelker <mail@bernhard-voelker.de>
2013-04-25tests: fix usage of require_ulimit_Pádraig Brady
* init.cfg (require_ulimit_v_): Renamed from require_ulimit_ as this only checks for ulimit -v support. Other uses of ulimit -t and ulimit -n in tests shouldn't cause false failures if not supported. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_ulimit_without_require_): A new syntax check to ensure that require_ulimit_v_() is used iff required. * tests/misc/head-c.sh: Add missing call to require_ulimit_v_. * tests/rm/many-dir-entries-vs-OOM.sh: Likewise. * tests/split/r-chunk.sh: Remove non mandatory require_ulimit_ call. * tests/misc/sort-merge-fdlimit.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/link-heap.sh: Adjust to renamed require_ulimit_v_. * tests/dd/no-allocate.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/csplit-heap.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/cut-huge-to-eol-range.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/printf-surprise.sh: Likewise.
2013-04-04tests: avoid shared lib tests on unsupported platformsPádraig Brady
* init.cfg (require_gcc_shared_): A new function to check that we can build shared libraries in the particular manner we use in our tests. * tests/cp/nfs-removal-race.sh: Use require_gcc_shared_. Then fail rather than skip, if the actual shared lib build fails. * tests/df/no-mtab-status.sh: Likewise. * tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Likewise. * tests/ls/getxattr-speedup.sh: Likewise. Reported in http://bugs.gnu.org/14024
2013-02-07tests: avoid actual/expected mismatch due to changed diagnosticJim Meyering
* tests/cp/fail-perm.sh: Adjust expected diagnostic to match just-changed cp diagnostic. * tests/ln/hard-to-sym.sh: Likewise. * .mailmap: Also map my new address.
2013-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this, perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test to make that one script use the single most recent year number.
2012-12-08cp: fix --no-preserve=mode to not exit 1Bernhard Voelker
cp --no-preserve=mode exited 1 unconditionally. Furthermore, the tests which would have detected this error - namely link-preserve.sh and reserve-mode.sh - failed to test cp's exit code. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): In the case x->explicit_no_preserve_mode, do only set return_val to false iff the previous set_acl () failed. * tests/cp/link-preserve.sh: Check cp's exit code. * tests/cp/link-symlink.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/preserve-mode.sh: Likewise. * NEWS: Mention the fix. Bug introduced in commit v8.19-145-g24ebca6. Reported by Florian Pritz in http://bugs.gnu.org/13119.
2012-10-17cp: avoid data-corrupting free-memory-readJim Meyering
* src/extent-scan.c (extent_scan_read): Reset our last_ei pointer whenever the parent buffer might have just been freed. * tests/cp/fiemap-extent-FMR.sh: New test. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add it. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Reported by Mike Gerth in http://bugs.gnu.org/12656, and with help from Alan Curry. Bug introduced in commit v8.10-60-g18f5a85.
2012-09-28cp: fix the --no-preserve=mode optionOndrej Oprala
The --no-preserve=mode option did not do what its name implies: it would mistakenly preserve permission mode bits. * NEWS: Mention the fix. * TODO: Remove an entry. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Add a condition to properly handle the --no-preserve=mode option for files (copy_internal): Add a condition to properly handle the --no-preserve=mode option for directories. * src/copy.h (struct cp_options): Add a new boolean. * src/cp.c (cp_option_init,decode_preserve_arg): Set the new boolean value according to specified options. * src/install.c (struct cp_options): Initialize the new boolean. * src/mv.c (struct cp_options): Initialize the new boolean. * tests/cp/preserve-mode.sh: Add a new test. * tests/cp/link-preserve.sh (-a --no-preserve=mode): Adjust the expected perms: now, --no-preserve=mode overrides the --preserve=mode that is inherent in -a, as it should. * tests/local.mk: Add the new test to the list.
2012-09-18tests: cp/link-heap: avoid new failure on rawhideJim Meyering
* tests/cp/link-heap.sh: Increase virtual memory limit by 2000KiB -- from 20,000 to 22,000 KiB -- to avoid a new failure on rawhide.
2012-09-05build: don't use recursive make for tests/ subdirectoryStefano Lattarini
* 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.
2012-08-30tests: add .sh and .pl suffixes to shell and perl tests, respectivelyStefano Lattarini
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.
2012-08-22tests: correct print_ver_ arguments and add a rule to enforce thisBernhard Voelker
We use print_ver_ to run "PROG --version" for each program under test. Some tests have been derived from others, while the argument(s) to print_ver_ have not been adapted. Add a new cfg.mk rule to prohibit this. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_calls_print_ver_with_irrelevant_argument): New rule, to prohibit a test script from calling print_env_ for a program not actually used by that test. * tests/chown/basic: s/\(print_ver_\) chgrp/\1 chown/ * tests/cp/acl: s/\(print_ver_\) mv/\1 cp/ * tests/cp/capability: s/\(print_ver_\) ls/\1 cp/ * tests/cp/cp-parents: s/(print_ver_\) mv/\1 cp/ * tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle: s/(print_ver_\) rm/\1 du/ * tests/misc/wc-parallel: s/(print_ver_\) md5sum/\1 wc/
2012-07-18tests: fiemap-perf: avoid a false failure on ext2Andrew D Warshall
* tests/cp/fiemap-perf: Skip the test on ext2 file systems, as we do for ext3. Also skip the test if we can't create a 1TiB file, which might not be supported on certain file systems. Signed-off-by: Pádraig Brady <P@draigBrady.com>
2012-05-16tests: use $AWK, not awkJim Meyering
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Don't hard-code "awk". Use $AWK. * tests/init.cfg: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-rand: Likewise.
2012-05-07tests: avoid LD_PRELOAD lookup error for dlsymJim Meyering
* tests/cp/nfs-removal-race: Link with -ldl.
2012-05-07cp: handle a race condition more sensiblyJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): In a narrow race (stat sees dest, yet open-without-O_CREAT fails with ENOENT), retry the open with O_CREAT. * tests/cp/nfs-removal-race: New file. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Reported by Philipp Thomas and Neil F. Brown in http://bugs.gnu.org/11100
2012-04-12cp: change --attributes-only to not truncate existing filesPádraig Brady
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't truncate an existing file, to support copying attributes between existing files. The original use case only considered creating new files, and it would be a very unusual use case to be relying on the truncating behavior. * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Mention the non truncating behavior. * tests/cp/attr-existing: A new test to ensure O_TRUNC skipped. * tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
2012-04-04tests: remove nearly all remaining backticksJim Meyering
* tests/rm/isatty: Remove now-unneeded "# `" line. * tests/misc/ls-time: Likewise. * tests/misc/date-sec: Remove stray "`" in comment. * tests/du/long-sloop: Likewise. * tests/mv/part-symlink: Replace multi-line `...` by $(...). * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart: Likewise. * tests/rm/fail-2eperm: Likewise. * tests/ls/nameless-uid: Likewise. * tests/cp/perm: Likewise. * tests/cp/preserve-gid: Likewise. * tests/cp/same-file: Likewise.
2012-04-04tests: convert nearly all `...` expressions to $(...)Jim Meyering
Exempt init.sh because it runs before we're assured to have a shell that groks $(...). Exempt *.mk because "$" would have to be doubled, and besides, any `...` expression in a .mk file is almost certainly evaluated before init.sh is run. Finally, also exempt the perl-based tests, because perl's `...` cannot be converted to $(...). Do that by running this command: git grep -l '`.*`' tests \ | grep -Ev 'init\.sh|\.mk$' | xargs grep -Lw perl \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/`(.*?)`/\$($1)/g' One minor fix-up change was required after that, due to how quoting differs: diff --git a/tests/chmod/equals b/tests/chmod/equals - expected_perms=$(eval 'echo \$expected_'$dest) + expected_perms=$(eval 'echo $expected_'$dest) Another was to make these required quoting adjustments: diff --git a/tests/misc/stty b/tests/misc/stty ... - rev=$(eval echo "\\\$REV_$opt") + rev=$(eval echo "\$REV_$opt") ... - rev1=$(eval echo "\\\$REV_$opt1") - rev2=$(eval echo "\\\$REV_$opt2") + rev1=$(eval echo "\$REV_$opt1") + rev2=$(eval echo "\$REV_$opt2") Also, transform two files that were needlessly excluded above: (both use perl, but are mostly bourne shell) perl -pi -e 's/`(.*?)`/\$($1)/g' \ tests/du/long-from-unreadable tests/init.cfg
2012-01-27maint: use single copyright year rangeJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2012-01-25maint: use the standard require_perl_ functionPádraig Brady
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Don't use a separate check.
2012-01-09tests: more automated quote adjustmentJim Meyering
Relax initial regexp to match more instances, but add a filter to avoid some invalid conversions. Run this: git grep -l "\`[^']*'" tests | xargs perl -pi -e '$q=q"'\''";' \ -e '$q="$q\\$q$q"; /(= ?\`|\`expr|\`echo|\Q$q\E)/ and next;' \ -e ' s/\`([^'\''"]*?'\'')/'\''$1/g' The last disjunct in the above (...) filter is to exempt any line that contains this string: '\'' With quoting like that, converting a ` to ' is likely to cause trouble, so we'll handle those manually. Here are three examples where the exemption is required: *': `link-to-dir/'\'': hard link not allowed for directory'*) ;; printf 'creating file `%s'\''\n' $f 'mv: inter-device move failed: `%s'\'' to `%s'\'';'\
2012-01-09tests: change `...' to '...' on lines not matching /[=\$]/Jim Meyering
Exempt lines with '$' or '=', since those are prone to improper conversion. Run this: git grep -l "\`[^']*'" tests \ |xargs perl -pi -e '/[=\$]/ and next;s/\`([^'\''"]*?'\'')/'\''$1/g'
2012-01-09tests: adjust \`...' quoting to '...' to adapt to latest gnulibJim Meyering
Run this: git grep -l "\\\\\`[^']*'" tests \ |xargs perl -pi -e 's/\\\`(.*?'\'')/'\''$1/g
2012-01-05tests: adjust setfacl usage to accommodate Solaris 10Jim Meyering
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_short_facl_mode_spec): New rule. * tests/cp/acl: Extend setfacl mode spec to have length 3. * tests/ls/slink-acl: Likewise. * tests/mv/acl: Likewise. Report and analysis by Bruno Haible.
2012-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2011-12-01tests: adjust PATH to generally include /sbin and /usr/sbinBernhard Voelker
Commit 5eeaca94 added /sbin to the PATH for tests using mkfs. For other tests, e.g. tests/cp-fiemap-perf using filefrag, we need /usr/sbin also. Add both directories generally for the tests, "since many of us always augment our PATH with all of the sbin paths all of the time anyway" (Bob in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2011-11/msg00107.html). The previous commit is hereby obsolete. * tests/init.cfg (sanitize_path_): Add /sbin and /usr/sbin to PATH unless already included. Needed for tests using admin tools like mkfs and filefrag on systems where the user's environment does not have these directories in the PATH. * tests/init.cfg (require_mkfs_PATH_): Remove obsolete function. * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: Remove require_mkfs_PATH_ call. * tests/cp/cp-mv-enotsup-xattr: Likewise. * tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Likewise. * tests/mkdir/writable-under-readonly: Likewise. * tests/rm/read-only: Likewise.
2011-11-22tests: use "compare exp out", not "compare out exp"Jim Meyering
Likewise, when an empty file is expected, use "compare /dev/null out", not "compare out /dev/null". I.e., specify the expected/desired contents via the first file name. Prompted by a suggestion from Bruno Haible in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.grep.bugs/4020/focus=29154 Run these commands: git grep -l -E 'compare [^ ]+ exp' \ |xargs perl -pi -e 's/(compare) (\S+) (exp\S*)/$1 $3 $2/' git grep -l -E 'compare [^ ]+ /dev/null' \ |xargs perl -pi -e 's/(compare) (\S+) (\/dev\/null)/$1 $3 $2/' * tests/chgrp/no-x: As above. * tests/chmod/no-x: Likewise. *

* tests/cp/cp-parents: If somehow a chmod set-up command failed, subsequent tests would fail in a harder-to-diagnose manner.
2011-09-07tests: adjust PATH to include /sbin for mkfs-using testsBernhard Voelker
* tests/init.cfg (require_mkfs_PATH_): New function to test whether mkfs is in PATH, otherwise adding /sbin to PATH. Needed for distributions (OpenSuSE, Solaris) in which sudo does not include /sbin in PATH. * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: Use require_mkfs_PATH_. * tests/cp/cp-mv-enotsup-xattr: Likewise. * tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Likewise. * tests/mkdir/writable-under-readonly: Likewise. * tests/rm/read-only: Likewise.
2011-08-08tests: complete the renaming framework_failure -> framework_failure_Stefano Lattarini
These changes were mostly mechanical, made by running the following command: git grep -lw framework_failure | grep -v ChangeLog \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/\b(framework_failure)\b/${1}_/' and then editing init.cfg and `tests/cp/cp-a-selinux' by hand. * tests/init.cfg (framework_failure): Remove, `framework_failure_' from init.sh should be used instead in the tests. Remove now-obsolete "FIXME" comment. (is_local_dir_, require_strace_, require_membership_in_two_groups_, require_sparse_support_, skip_if_mcstransd_is_running_, mkfifo_or_skip_) Use `framework_failure_', not `framework_failure'. * Many test scripts: Likewise.
2011-07-27maint: copy: refactor hard link creationPádraig Brady
* src/copy.c (create_hard_link): A new function refactored from existing code. (copy_internal): Call the new function from all 3 locations that create hard links. * tests/cp/same-file: Amend to match the adjusted diagnostic.
2011-07-27tests: cp/preserve-link: test all relevant pathsPádraig Brady
* tests/cp/preserve-link: Add test cases for when a missing link in the destination tree is encountered first and second. Also add cases for old and new separate files in the destination tree, both to make the clobbering behavior explicit, and to test any changes in this area in future.
2011-07-26maint: use consistent style in C and test scriptsJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Adjust formatting style to conform with guidelines in HACKING: put braces around two one-line "else" blocks. * tests/cp/existing-perm-dir: Use $(...), not `...`, and stat rather than ls+cut to get the mode string. mode=$(stat --p=%A dst/dir)
2011-07-25cp: don't mishandle existing dir dest permissions (Bug#9170)Paul Eggert
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): If we don't create the directory, then we cannot have omitted permissions. Problem and trivial fix reported by Eric Lammerts. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp/existing-perm-dir. * tests/cp/existing-perm-dir: New file.
2011-07-25cp -up: preserve all hard linksJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): With --update (-u), this function would return early once it found that the destination is not older than the source, *without* recording the source-dev/ino--to--dest_name mapping. That mapping is required in order to preserve src hard links in the destination tree, so when using cp with --update and --preserve=links (perhaps via -p or -a), cp could fail to preserve one hard link per inode when at least one of the hard-linked names already exists in the destination tree. Reported by Odd Harry Mannsverk in http://debbugs.gnu.org/8419. * tests/cp/preserve-link: New file. Exercise the flaw/fix. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
2011-06-21tests: cp/sparse-fiemap: use "head -n99" in place of "head -99"Bernhard Voelker
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Use "head -n99" in place of "head -99". The latter is officially obsolete.
2011-06-17tests: remove skip_test_ function; use new skip_ insteadJim Meyering
* tests/init.cfg (skip_test_): Remove function. Use skip_ in place of skip_test_ everywhere else. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_skip_): Remove rule. * tests/**: Use skip_, not skip_test_, everywhere.

2011-05-13tests: use skip_test_, not skip_Jim Meyering
skip_test_ emits its diagnostic both to FD 9 (tty), and to FD 2 (usually the log file), whereas init.sh's skip_ emits only to FD 9. Without that, the log is slightly less useful. * tests/cp/fiemap-2: Use skip_test_, not skip_. * tests/cp/fiemap-perf: Likewise. * tests/du/bigtime: Likewise. * tests/du/files0-from-dir: Likewise. * tests/du/move-dir-while-traversing: Likewise. * tests/init.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-stale-thread-mem: Likewise. * tests/misc/stat-nanoseconds: Likewise. * tests/mv/i-3: Likewise. * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart: Likewise. * tests/split/filter: Likewise. Prompted by a report from Pádraig Brady.
2011-04-22tests: sparse-fiemap: adjust syntax to accommodate older awkAlan Curry
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Parenthesize ternary expression used as an argument to awk's printf. Otherwise, gawk 3.0.1 and the one from debian stable's original-awk would get a syntax error. Reported by Dennis Clarke. Copyright note: tiny change
2011-04-21tests: sparse-fiemap: with root/ext3, do not create an ext4 FSJim Meyering
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: When this test was run as root on an ext3 file system, (ext3 had known problems), it would trickily create and mount a loopback ext4 file system and use that instead. However, due to a bug in 2.6.39-rc1..rc3, this loopback test (when run in another loopback FS) exposed a bug with 1k-blocksize ext4 whereby non-NUL data would be read from a hole. For details, see this: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.ext4/24495
2011-04-21tests: sparse-fiemap: report more detail upon failure; ignore an FPJim Meyering
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Fail right away with details, when cmp fails. When extent maps are found to differ, display them and merely warn.
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.

* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Remove spurious BEGIN {...} block.
2011-04-13tests: fix a false positive fiemap test on some file systemsPádraig Brady
* tests/filefrag-extent-compare: Don't check the length of the last extent, as this was seen to vary on XFS, where it leaves trailing blocks allocated for performance reasons. * tests/cp/fiemap-empty: Though not seen as an issue in practise, try to avoid possible issues with the allocator in file systems, by requesting to allocate a power of 2.

2011-04-04tests: avoid spurious parallel failure due to temporary disk fullJim Meyering
Running the new fiemap-empty test uses 600MB of disk space via fallocate, and in so doing caused failure in unrelated tests that were running in parallel on a small file system. Rather than simply running fallocate (which allocates the space, inducing disk full when it fails), skip the test if there is less than 800MB of free space, as computed via stat and awk. * tests/init.cfg (require_file_system_bytes_free_): New function. * tests/cp/fiemap-empty: Use it.
2011-04-04tests: preserve-gid: don't chown temporary PATH dir to a nameless UIDJim Meyering
* tests/cp/preserve-gid: Simply chmod a+rx instead. That is safer, in case the nameless UID actually has an account, and might take advantage of root running a program in a directory under its control
