2008-04-30tests: avoid spurious "make check-root" failureJim Meyering
* README (Running tests as root): Also set PATH in suggested "sudo" command. This avoids failure of at least tests/cp/cp-a-selinux when the default PATH does not contain /sbin. * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: Don't redirect stderr to /dev/null. "mkfs" was failing due to /sbin not being in PATH.
2008-04-27tests: don't source envvar-check manually, test-lib.sh does itJim Meyering
* tests/cp/abuse: Remove ". $top_srcdir/tests/envvar-check". * tests/cp/parent-perm: Likewise. * tests/cp/special-f: Likewise. * tests/ls/proc-selinux-segfault: Likewise. * tests/misc/help-version: Likewise. * tests/mkdir/selinux: Likewise. * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart: Likewise. * tests/touch/now-owned-by-other: Likewise. * tests/sample-test: Remove commented out suggestion.
2008-04-27tests: cp/perm (usually not run) was failing on systems with SELinuxJim Meyering
* tests/cp/perm: Use stat to get the permission string, not ls. This test was run only when RUN_VERY_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes was set in the environment. It would fail on SELinux-enable systems because ls-generated permission strings would not match, e.g., "test _-rw-r--r--+ = _-rw-r--r--" would fail.

2008-04-21tests: convert umask-check to a functionJim Meyering
* tests/test-lib.sh (working_umask_or_skip_): New function, from... * tests/umask-check: ...here. Remove file. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove umask-check. * tests/mkdir/perm: Use the function rather than sourcing the file. * tests/cp/cp-parents: Likewise. * tests/cp/parent-perm: Likewise. Bruno Haible reported that parent-perm was failing to run umask-check.
2008-04-21Revamp test-related Makefiles.Jim Meyering
One side-effect of this change is that "make check" now works even if you put "." early in your shell's search PATH (don't do that!). Remove all test-related Makefile.am files, except those generated by mk-script. Instead, tests/Makefile.am now lists not only the tests directly under tests/, but also those in tests/*/ that are not generated by mk-script, e.g., cp/abuse, cp/acl, mv/i-1, etc. A lot of these changes are like this: -. $srcdir/../lang-default +. $top_srcdir/tests/lang-default -. $srcdir/../test-lib.sh +. $top_srcdir/tests/test-lib.sh * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove corresponding Makefiles. * tests/check.mk (vc_exe_in_TESTS): Relax syntax requirements. * tests/rwx-to-mode: Remove file. Rewritten as... * tests/test-lib.sh (rwx_to_mode_): ...this new function. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove rwx-to-mode. (SUBDIRS): Remove each dir with a removed Makefile.am. (EXTRA_DIST): Add $(TESTS). (TESTS): Add over 300 entries.
2008-04-02"touch E; mkfifo F; cp -fR F E" no longer fails due to existing EJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Revert change of 2005-03-01, 4303f0454592421eea48be87777d32a49e1d5e5b Prompted by Michael Stone, who pointed me to an old bug report from Ian Jackson: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/7504 * tests/cp/special-f: New file. Test for the above. * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add special-f. * NEWS: mention this bug fix.
2008-04-01Avoid root-only SELinux-related test failures w/o mcstransd.Jim Meyering
When mcstransd is not running (i.e., after service mcstrans stop), "make check" as root would provoke two test failures. * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: Use the context, root:object_r:tmp_t:s0, that works both with and without mcstransd. Thanks to Eric Paris for the tip and to Ondřej Vašík for alerting me to the problem. Reported by Robert Scheck in <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/436717>.
2008-03-28Require that "(exit $fail); exit $fail" be last line of each test.Jim Meyering

This avoids another spurious Mac OS 10.5.1 (Darwin 9.1) test failure. * tests/cp/preserve-gid: Accept a group ID of 0, as well. Reported by Elias Pipping.
2008-01-26Avoid cp/preserve-gid test failure on Mac OS 10.5.1 (Darwin 9.1)Jim Meyering

2008-01-08parent-perm: avoid a bizarre test failure.Jim Meyering
* tests/cp/parent-perm: Accommodate the situation in which chmod ("dir", 02755) returns 0 yet fails to set the S_ISGID bit.
2008-01-07cp: add a test for today's bug fix.Jim Meyering
* tests/cp/parent-perm: New script. Test today's change. Based on reproducer from Jan Blunck. * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add parent-perm.

* tests/cp/existing-perm-race: Update file mode.
2007-12-01Add a test for cp -p and existing file permissions.Paul Eggert
* tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add existing-perm-race. * tests/cp/existing-perm-race: New test. It isn't much of a test yet, since it's hard to catch the race, but it has a FIXME that will let us do a better test later.
2007-11-30Avoid a spurious test failure when build directory is set-GID.Jim Meyering

2007-11-22cp: by default, refuse to copy through a dangling destination symlinkJim Meyering
* NEWS: Mention this change. * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Describe the new behavior. * src/copy.c: No longer include "canonicalize.h". (copy_reg): Upon failure to open a dangling destination symlink, don't canonicalize the name, but rather fail (default) or, with POSIXLY_CORRECT, repeat the open call without O_EXCL (potentially dangerous). * src/copy.h (struct cp_options) [open_dangling_dest_symlink]: New member.

Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
2007-11-01Accommodate FreeBSD 6.1 hard-link-to-symlink differences.Jim Meyering
* tests/cp/same-file: Detect when linking to a symlink links to the target of the symlink (FreeBSD 6.1 does this, Linux does not), and skip the few tests that would otherwise fail. Redirect output of final comparison to stderr, since all stdout is already redirected.

2007-10-02Never copy through a symlink that cp has just created.Jim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): When same-file detection requires 'stat'ing the destination file, also 'lstat' it and ensure that it wasn't the destination of a preceding copy operation. This bug was introduced on 2007-06-18. * tests/cp/abuse: New test for the above. * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add abuse.
2007-09-15More misc, test-related changes. (some to allow running tests as root)Jim Meyering
2007-09-15Adjust chgrp, chmod, chown, cp tests to use test-lib.sh.Jim Meyering

2007-08-25Remove all .cvsignore files from version control.Jim Meyering
2007-07-29Attempt to copy a regular file, even if stat says it is empty.Jim Meyering
* NEWS: Document this bug fix. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Read from a regular file, even if it appears (stat.st_size == 0) to be empty. This reverts an optimization introduced on 2005-11-23 for coreutils-6.0. Otherwise, "cp /proc/cpuinfo /tmp" creates an empty file, on e.g., linux-2.6.20. * tests/cp/proc-zero-len: New file. Test for the above. * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add proc-zero-len. Reported by Dan Berrangé.

2007-07-10Change "version 2" to "version 3" in all copyright notices.Jim Meyering
2007-06-18A few more symlink-related fixes. Fix a bug triggered by cpPaul Eggert
--parents and symlinks. Close some race conditions possible when the destination replaces a newly-created file with a symlink. * NEWS: Document that 'cp --parents' no longer mishandles symlinks in file name components of source. * src/copy.c (HAVE_LCHOWN): Default to false. (lchown) [!defined HAVE_LCHOWN]: Define to chown, for convenience. * src/cp.c (lchown) [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Likewise. * src/install.c (lchown [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Likewise. * src/copy.c (set_owner): Use lchown instead of chown, for safety in case the file got replaced by a symlink in the meantime. * src/cp.c (re_protect): Likewise. * src/install.c (change_attributes): Likewise. * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use ordinary C rather than an #if. * src/cp.c (lchown) [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Define to chown, for convenience. (struct dir_attr): Cache the entire struct stat of the directory, rather than just its mode, so that we needn't stat the directory twice (which can lead to races). (re_protect): Don't use XSTAT as that's not appropriate in this context (symlinks should be followed here). Instead, use the cached stat value. (make_dir_parents_private): Save dir's entire struct stat, not just its mode. * tests/cp/cp-parents: Add test to check against bug with cp --parents and symlinks.
2007-06-15Correct cp's handling of destination symlinks in some cases.Paul Eggert
* NEWS: "cp" no longer considers a destination symlink to be the same as the referenced file when copying links or making backups. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): When following a symlink, use the followed name in later chown etc. requests, so that the created file is affected, rather than the symlink. Use O_NOFOLLOW on source when not dereferencing symlinks; this avoids a race. Preserve errno correctly when doing multiple open attempts on the destination. (copy_internal): Follow destination symlinks only when copying a regular file and only when we don't intend to remove or rename the destination first, regardless of whether following source symlinks; this is because since POSIX and tradition (e.g., FreeBSD) say we should ordinarily follow destination symlinks if the system calls would ordinarily do so. * src/copy.h (struct cp_options): Add comment that 'dereference' is only for source files. * src/cp.c (usage): Note that --derereference etc. are only for source files. (make_dir_parents_private): Follow symlinks, regardless of whether --dereference is specified, because these are destination symlinks. * tests/cp/same-file: Adjust tests to match revised behavior. Filter out perror output since it might vary from host to host. Use sed alone instead of also using echo. * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Document the behavior better when the destination is a symlink. Clarify source versus destination symlinks. Describe the new behavior for destination symlinks. 2007-06-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> * src/copy.c: Include "canonicalize.h". (copy_reg): Use canonicalize_filename_mode to follow the symlink, so that we can always open with O_EXCL and avoid a race.
2007-06-10bug-fix: cp would fail to write through a dangling symlinkJim Meyering
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): When open fails with EEXIST, the destination is lstat'able, and a symlink, call open again, but now without O_EXCL. * tests/cp/thru-dangling: New file, to test for the above fix. * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add thru-dangling. * THANKS: Add Michael McLagan. Bug report from Michael McLagan in <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/243588>.
2007-03-29Arrange for "make check-root" to run the new root-only test.Jim Meyering
* tests/Makefile.am (t9): New target, to run tests/cp/cp-a-selinux. (all_t): Add t9. Use a directory on a loopback device mounted with -o context=... * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: Since this test now runs mount and umount, it is a root-only one.
2007-03-29* tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: New file. Test for the bug reported inJim Meyering
* tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp-a-selinux. * tests/selinux: New file. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add selinux. * tests/misc/selinux: Source the new script, rather than open coding it. Change how "cp -a" and "cp --preserve=context" work with SELinux. Now, cp -a attempts to preserve context, but failure to do so does not change cp's exit status. However "cp --preserve=context" is similar, but failure *does* cause cp to exit with nonzero status. * src/copy.h (struct cp_options) [require_preserve_context]: New member. * src/copy.c (copy_reg, copy_internal): Implement the above. * src/mv.c (cp_option_init): Initialize the new member. * src/install.c (cp_option_init): Likewise. * src/cp.c (cp_option_init): Likewise. (decode_preserve_arg): Set it or reset it. FIXME: add an on-writable-NFS-only test
2007-03-29ls: Add support for SELinux and a slightly modified -Z option.Jim Meyering
I started with the patches from Red Hat. The entries below tell how the code evolved. * src/ls.c (print_long_format, print_file_name_and_frills): When there is no security context (due to getfilecon/lgetfilecon failing with e.g. ENOTSUP), print it as "?", not "". * src/ls.c (print_file_name_and_frills): Make -Z work without -l. (length_of_file_name_and_frills): Likewise. * src/ls.c: Remove the --lcontext and --scontext options. Change the way -Z, --context work so that it no longer implies -l. Thus, -Z -l will work like -lcontext and -Z without -l will work like --scontext. Adjust tests to reflect new 'ls -l' syntax -- affects only systems with SELinux when operating on a file with no ACL. These tests assumed that everything before the first space on each line is the 10-byte mode string. But there may also be a "+" in the 11th column, just before the space. However, note that this is not new. The same thing would have happened even without the change below, when listing a file with an ACL. * tests/chmod/equals, tests/cp/cp-parents, tests/cp/fail-perm: * tests/cp/link-preserve, tests/install/basic-1, tests/misc/mknod: * tests/mkdir/parents, tests/mkdir/special-1, tests/mv/partition-perm: Don't make compilation depend on USE_ACL. An SELinux security context counts as an "alternate access control method", so ls must output a "+" for each file with a security context. * src/ls.c [struct fileinfo] (have_acl): Declare unconditionally. (FILE_HAS_ACL): Remove macro definition. Use f->have_acl directly. (gobble_file): Record whether a file has a security context, and update the condition used to determine whether to print the "+". (gobble_file): Call getfilecon/lgetfilecon also when format == long_format, so that we get the "+". * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Add a comment explaining why (with a security context option) ls doesn't exit nonzero due to e.g., getfilecon failing with errno == ENOTSUP. * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Ignore failure of getfilecon if it's due to ENOTSUP. * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Factor out three small blocks using getfilecon and lgetfilecon. Don't ignore return value from getfilecon and lgetfilecon. * src/ls.c (print_long_format): Don't use ?: (empty 2nd arg with C ternary operator). (print_scontext_format): Likewise. (print_scontext): Declare to be "bool", not int. Adjust uses. * src/Makefile.am (dir_LDADD, ls_LDADD, vdir_LDADD): Add $(LIB_SELINUX). * tests/misc/chcon: New file. * tests/misc/chcon-fail: New file. * tests/Makefile.am (check-root): Run new, root-only misc/chcon test. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add chcon and chcon-fail. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add selinux. * tests/misc/selinux: New file. * tests/help-version: Skip chcon.
2007-03-13Work around a failing test due to an NFS-based race condition.Jim Meyering
* tests/cp/sparse: Accept a report that the copy is *smaller*.
2007-02-24Remove the "gnits" option; it prohibits my using "+" as a versionJim Meyering
string suffix, and all it does (beyond the default "gnu" option) is to _require_ the THANKS file. * configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Remove it. Remove all AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS settings in Makefile.am files. * tests/chgrp/Makefile.am, tests/chmod/Makefile.am: * tests/chown/Makefile.am, tests/cp/Makefile.am: * tests/du/Makefile.am, tests/expr/Makefile.am: * tests/factor/Makefile.am, tests/general/Makefile.am: * tests/install/Makefile.am, tests/ln/Makefile.am: * tests/ls/Makefile.am, tests/mkdir/Makefile.am: * tests/mv/Makefile.am, tests/readlink/Makefile.am: * tests/rm/Makefile.am, tests/rmdir/Makefile.am: * tests/seq/Makefile.am, tests/stty/Makefile.am: * tests/tee/Makefile.am, tests/touch/Makefile.am:
2007-02-03* NEWS: Document fix for cp --preserve=mode.Paul Eggert
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Omit the group- or other-writeable permissions when creating a directory, to avoid a race condition if the special mode bits aren't right just after the directory is created. * src/cp.c (make_dir_parents_private): Likewise. * tests/cp/parent-perm-race: Test for the "cp --preserve=mode" race fix in copy.c.
