2008-05-17tests: remove ugly /bin/sh wrapper around each perl-based test scriptJim Meyering
* tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Save and restore TMPDIR around envvar-check, so that the few scripts that require $TMPDIR don't fail. This is also good to let a user's default TMPDIR setting be used e.g., in the search for an 'other-partition'. FIXME: this is pretty ugly. maybe undo it and find a better way. (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Invoke perl scripts with $(PERL), and use -T if the script requires that. Otherwise, use $(SHELL). * tests/misc/md5sum-newline: Create a file whose name contains a newline in Perl (resort to using "system", since open refuses). Fix old brokenness exposed by this change: * tests/du/files0-from: Correct test not to rely on stdin being attached to a non-tty. * tests/misc/sort (3g, 3h, 3i): Likewise: add explicit empty input file. Avoid warnings about using qw()-around-commas. * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Now that this test is run from a temporary subdirectory, adjust the full name of the "rm" program we're going to run. Change #!/bin/sh to #!/usr/bin/perl, and factor out the few lines of boilerplate code to invoke perl. Do not "require 5.00x"; a configure-time Perl test handles that * tests/dd/skip-seek: * tests/misc/base64: * tests/misc/basename: * tests/misc/cut: * tests/misc/date: * tests/misc/dircolors: * tests/misc/dirname: * tests/misc/expand: * tests/misc/expr: * tests/misc/factor: * tests/misc/fmt: * tests/misc/fold: * tests/misc/head: * tests/misc/head-elide-tail: * tests/misc/join: * tests/misc/ls-misc: * tests/misc/md5sum: * tests/misc/md5sum-newline: * tests/misc/mktemp: * tests/misc/od: * tests/misc/paste: * tests/misc/pr: * tests/misc/printf-cov: * tests/misc/seq: * tests/misc/sha1sum: * tests/misc/sha1sum-vec: * tests/misc/sha224sum: * tests/misc/sha256sum: * tests/misc/sha384sum: * tests/misc/sha512sum: * tests/misc/sort-merge: * tests/misc/stat-printf: * tests/misc/sum: * tests/misc/tac: * tests/misc/tail: * tests/misc/test: * tests/misc/test-diag: * tests/misc/tr: * tests/misc/tsort: * tests/misc/tty-eof: * tests/misc/unexpand: * tests/misc/uniq: * tests/misc/wc: * tests/misc/wc-files0-from: * tests/misc/xstrtol: * tests/mv/i-1: * tests/pr/pr-tests: * tests/rm/empty-name: * tests/rm/fail-eperm: * tests/rm/unreadable:

2008-04-21tests: adjust perl -I to use $top_srcdir/tests, not $srcdir/..Jim Meyering
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.
2008-03-27paste -d\\: avoid heap overrun for backslash at end of delim listJim Meyering
* src/paste.c: Include "quotearg.h". (collapse_escapes): Handle backslash-escaped backslash explicitly. Handle unescaped backslash at end of string by returning nonzero, rather than by overrunning memory. (main): Diagnose an invalid delimiter list -- carefully. Reported by Cristian Cadar, Daniel Dunbar and Dawson Engler. * tests/misc/paste-no-nl (delim-bs): Add a test to demonstrate the heap-smashing capability. (delim-bs2): Prior to coreutils-5.1.2, this bug was a little harder to demonstrate: it would corrupt a first-argument containing e.g., \b * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Reflect renaming. * tests/misc/paste: Rename from paste-no-nl.
