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.
2008-04-20* tests/misc/Makefile.am (built_programs): Remove. Unused.Jim Meyering
2008-04-20Use "env" to invoke potential built-ins.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/pwd-unreadable-parent: Invoke pwd via "env -- pwd", rather than via an absolute name. * tests/touch/not-owner: Likewise for test. * tests/chmod/setgid: Likewise.
2008-04-19md5sum -c: ignore a line with a NUL byte among checksum hex digitsJim Meyering
* src/md5sum.c (hex_digits): Require that all "digest_hex_bytes" be hexadecimal digits, not just those before the first NUL byte. This bug dates back to the original version: 3763a4f24eb21be40674d13ff7b04e078f473e85 * tests/misc/md5sum (nul-in-cksum): Test for the above. * NEWS [Bug fixes]: Mention this. Prompted by a report from Flóki Pálsson in http://bugzilla.redhat.com/439531
2008-04-15md5sum, sha1sum, etc: handle invalid input (i.e., don't segfault)Jim Meyering
* src/md5sum.c (bsd_split_3): Return right away if s_len == 0. * tests/misc/md5sum (bsd-segv): New test for the above. * tests/misc/sha1sum (bsd-segv): Likewise. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Reported by Cristian Cadar, Daniel Dunbar and Dawson Engler.
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>.

* maint.mk (sc_require_test_exit_idiom): New rule to enforce policy. * tests/cp/acl: Adhere to the new policy. * tests/cp/preserve-gid: Likewise. * tests/dd/misc: * tests/install/create-leading: * tests/ln/sf-1: * tests/ls/symlink-slash: * tests/misc/help-version: * tests/misc/ls-time: * tests/misc/nice: * tests/misc/shred-remove: * tests/misc/stty: * tests/misc/stty-row-col: * tests/mkdir/p-1: * tests/mkdir/p-2: * tests/mkdir/p-3: * tests/mkdir/p-v: * tests/mkdir/special-1: * tests/mkdir/writable-under-readonly: * tests/mv/acl: * tests/mv/backup-is-src: * tests/mv/diag: * tests/mv/dir-file: * tests/mv/force: * tests/mv/hard-link-1: * tests/mv/i-2: * tests/mv/i-4: * tests/mv/into-self: * tests/mv/into-self-2: * tests/mv/into-self-3: * tests/mv/partition-perm: * tests/mv/to-symlink: * tests/rmdir/ignore: * tests/tail-2/assert: * tests/tail-2/assert-2: * tests/touch/dangling-symlink: * tests/touch/dir-1: * tests/touch/empty-file: * tests/touch/fifo: * tests/touch/no-rights: Likewise. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>

* tests/misc/pwd-long: Add canonical '(exit $fail); exit $fail'. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
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. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
2008-03-21ptx: avoid heap overrun for backslash at end of optarg stringJim Meyering
* src/ptx.c (copy_unescaped_string): Ignore a lone backslash at end of string. Reported by Cristian Cadar, Daniel Dunbar and Dawson Engler. Details here: <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/13005>. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add ptx-overrun. * tests/misc/ptx-overrun: New file. Test for the above fix. * NEWS: Mention the fix. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
2008-03-19make check: Remove /tmp/ls-creating debug code.Bob Proulx
* tests/misc/ls-misc: Remove debug code creating /tmp/ls.
2008-03-01Don't exempt "groups" from write-failure test, now that it's a C program.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/help-version: Since groups is no longer a shell script, a buggy bourne shell can't cause trouble.
2008-02-23Avoid test failures when root (/) is not readable.Jim Meyering
* tests/test-lib.sh (require_readable_root_): New function. * tests/misc/pwd-long: Skip this test when / is unreadable. * tests/du/slash: Likewise. This is required at least for Mandrake/Mandriva in "secure" mode. Reported by Theodoros V. Kalamatianos in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/12800
2008-02-19seq: give better diagnostics for invalid formats.Steven Schubiger
* src/seq.c: (validate_format): New function. (main): Use it. * tests/misc/seq (fmt-d, fmt-e): Test for expected diagnostics with invalid formats. * NEWS: Mention this change. * TODO: Remove this item. [jm: src/seq.c: make diagnostics more consistent tests/misc/seq (fmt-eos1): adjust the expected diagnostic ]
2008-02-18seq: give a proper diagnostic for an invalid --format=% optionJim Meyering
* src/seq.c (long_double_format): Handle '%' at end of string. * tests/misc/seq [fmt-eos1, fmt-eos2]: New tests for the bug. * NEWS: Mention this. Reported by Pádraig Brady.
2008-02-17Expand "ls --color" tests to also use the dircolors defaults.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/ls-misc: Adjust this test so each is run twice. First, as usual, and the second time with LS_COLORS set using the default settings produced by running dircolors. * tests/Coreutils.pm: See below. This required some changes: - save and restore $ENV{LS_COLORS} for each individual test that requires a specific value. - Since this is the first test to call the run_tests command more than once, it has exposed that that function erroneously modifies the \@Tests array. Fix that in tests/Coreutils.pm.
2008-02-17ls --color no longer outputs unnecessary escape sequencesEd Avis
In --color mode, plain files do not get any color, not even white. When no highlighting is required, ls outputs no escape sequence at all. * src/ls.c (print_with_color): (used_color): New global. (indicator_no) [C_RESET]: New enum value. (indicator_name) ["rs"]: Corresponding new string. (color_indicator): Make the 'normal' and 'file' markers be NULL. Use "rs" (C_RESET) to reset to ordinary colors. (process_signals): Restore default colors only if necessary. (main): Don't call prep_non_filename_text here. (print_name_with_quoting): Call it here, instead. (prep_non_filename_text): Use C_RESET, not C_NORM. (print_color_indicator): Return bool, not void. Print nothing, when possible. (put_indicator): Call prep_non_filename_text the first time. * tests/misc/ls-misc: Test for above. * tests/ls/color-dtype-dir: Adapt: no escapes around regular file name. * TODO: Remove item. * NEWS: Mention this.
2008-02-09tests: Remove priv-check. Use new require_root_ function instead.Jim Meyering
* tests/priv-check: Remove file. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove priv-check. * tests/test-lib.sh (require_root_): New function. Use this function rather than sourcing the priv-check file. * tests/sample-test: Use require_root_ rather than priv-check. * tests/chown/basic: Likewise. * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: Likewise. * tests/cp/preserve-gid: Likewise. * tests/cp/special-bits: Likewise. * tests/ls/nameless-uid: Likewise. * tests/misc/chcon: Likewise. * tests/mkdir/writable-under-readonly: Likewise. * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart: Likewise. * tests/rm/fail-2eperm: Likewise. * tests/rm/no-give-up: Likewise. * tests/rm/one-file-system: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/append-only: Likewise. * tests/touch/now-owned-by-other: Likewise. * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Use skip_if_root_ rather than priv-check. * Makefile.maint (sc_root_tests): Reflect this change: search for the new function name.

* tests/misc/tty-eof: Uncomment a debug "warn". This change happens to make this test far less likely to fail. With that statement commented out, this test would fail about 20% of the time on my desktop. Now, it's gone 100 iterations in a row with no failure.
2007-12-20Avoid another "make check" failure due to omitted programs.Jim Meyering
* tests/test-lib.sh (require_built_): New function. * tests/misc/groups-version: Use it to skip this test if either groups or id is not built.

2007-11-30Be extra careful to quote $abs_top_builddir-derived names.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/ls-misc (shell_quote): New function. Use it to quote file names derived from $abs_top_builddir, in case it contains shell meta-characters. This is not currently needed, since CuTmpdir detects the fishy name and skips the test. But it's important enough to add the extra protection. Reported by Ralf Wildenhues.

2007-11-16Port readlink-fp-loop to Solaris.Paul Eggert
* tests/misc/readlink-fp-loop (symlink_loop_msg): New var, which records the symlink-loop message, whose wording is not standardized by Posix. Do not rely on "echo x > p/1" to work when p/1 has a lot of indirect symlinks. (I'm surprised that it works on Linux. Perhaps a Linux bug?)

* NEWS: Mention the %%-in-format bug fix. * src/seq.c (struct layout): New type. (long_double_format): New arg LAYOUT. Fill it in. Fix mishandling of %% in formats. (print_numbers): New arg LAYOUT. Don't convert LAST to output format when deciding whether to go slightly past LAST. Instead, convert X to output format and back. This fixes a bug reported by Andreas Schwab in <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2007-10/msg00237.html> where "seq 10.8 0.1 10.95" would output 11.0 on platforms where 10.95 rounds to a value that prints as 11.0 when only one digit past the decimal point is asked for. (main): Compute layout, for benefit of print_numbers. * tests/misc/seq (float-3): Undo previous change, since the bug should be fixed now. (fmt-b): New test, for the %% bug.
