2009-10-30tests: factor 350 fail=0 initializations into test-lib.shJim Meyering
Run this command to remove the factored-out "fail=0" lines. perl -ni -e '/^fail=0$/ or print' $(g grep -l '^fail=0$') * tests/test-lib.sh: Initialize fail=0 here, not in 300+ scripts. * tests/...: nearly all bourne shell scripts Suggested by Eric Blake.
2009-10-30tests: remove the less-regular fail=0 assignments manuallyJim Meyering

Fix the offenders: * tests/cp/acl: Set fail=0 * tests/cp/backup-is-src: Likewise. * tests/cp/file-perm-race: Likewise. * tests/cp/reflink-auto: Likewise. * tests/cp/same-file: Likewise. * tests/ln/backup-1: Likewise. * tests/misc/su-fail: Likewise. * tests/misc/truncate-owned-by-other: Likewise. * tests/mkdir/p-3: Likewise. * tests/mkdir/selinux: Likewise. * tests/mkdir/special-1: Likewise. * tests/mv/acl: Likewise. * tests/mv/backup-is-src: Likewise. * tests/mv/diag: Likewise. * tests/mv/force: Likewise. * tests/mv/hard-link-1: Likewise. * tests/mv/into-self-3: Likewise. * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart: Likewise. * tests/touch/now-owned-by-other: Likewise.
2009-10-28nice, nohup, su: detect write failure to stderrEric Blake
These programs can print non-fatal diagnostics to stderr prior to exec'ing a subsidiary program. However, if we thought the situation warranted a diagnostic, we insist that the diagnostic be printed without error, rather than blindly exec, as it may be a security risk. For an example, try 'nice -n -1 nice 2>/dev/full'. Failure to raise priority (by lowering niceness) is not fatal, but failure to inform the user about failure to change priority is dangerous. * src/nice.c (main): Declare failure if writing advisory message to stderr fails. * src/nohup.c (main): Likewise. * src/su.c (main): Likewise. * tests/misc/nice: Test this. * tests/misc/nohup: Likewise. * NEWS: Document this.
2009-10-28echo, printf: interpret \e as the Escape characterPádraig Brady
Match gcc, perl, bash, ksh, tcsh, ... in supporting \e. * src/printf.c (print_escape_char): Output \x1B when \e encountered. * src/echo.c (main): Likewise. * src/stat.c (print_escape_char): Likewise. * doc/coreutils.texi (echo invocation): Add \e to the list. * tests/misc/printf: Verify that \e outputs \x1B. * NEWS: Mention the change in behaviour.
2009-10-28printenv: ignore bogus variable namesEric Blake
Exposed by env a=b=c printenv a=b. * src/printenv.c (main): Silently reject = in names. * tests/misc/printenv: Test for it. * NEWS: Document this.
2009-10-27env, printenv: add -0/--null optionEric Blake
Allows for unambiguous processing when environment values (or even non-portable names!) contain newline. * src/env.c (longopts): Add new option. (usage): Document it. (main): Implement it. * src/printenv.c (longopts): New variable. (usage): Document new option. (main): Implement it. * doc/coreutils.texi (Common options): New macro optNull. (du invocation, env invocation, printenv invocation): Use it. * NEWS: Mention this. * tests/misc/env-null: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Run it.
2009-10-27tests: add printenv coverageEric Blake
* tests/misc/printenv: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Run it. * .gitignore: Ignore more cruft.
2009-10-27tests: fix PATH problems on cygwinEric Blake
* tests/misc/sort-compress: Remove non-portable over-restriction of PATH; besides, commit 3ea177e changed sort to no longer default to gzip. * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Untaint, rather than clear, PATH. * tests/misc/pwd-long: Likewise. Also skip test if long path cannot be created. (normalize_to_cwd_relative): Use eq rather than ==, since cygwin perl doesn't properly handle 64-bit ino_t numerically.
2009-10-26tests: clean up tests of env -- handlingEric Blake
The comment in env.c about -- handling has not matched the behavior in the code since the initial commit back in 1992. * src/env.c: Fix bogus comment. * tests/misc/env: Further tweaks, avoiding PATH problems inherent in testing -i, and testing program name containing =. * doc/coreutils.texi (env invocation): Mention that intermediate program is needed to invoke program with name containing =.
2009-10-26doc: document PATH interactions with envEric Blake
* doc/coreutils.texi (env invocation): Mention that PATH is modified prior to exec. * tests/misc/env: Test this.
2009-10-26env: reject bogus -u argumentsEric Blake
* src/env.c (main): Use unsetenv rather than putenv to remove items from environ, and check for failure. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add unsetenv. * tests/misc/env: Test this. * NEWS: Document it.
2009-10-26tests: avoid file name not portable to cygwinEric Blake
* tests/misc/chroot-fail: Use 'no_such', not '...', since cygwin 1.5 silently strips trailing dots. * tests/misc/nice-fail: Likewise. * tests/misc/stdbuf: Likewise. * tests/misc/timeout-parameters: Likewise.
2009-10-26tests: adjust new env test not to failJim Meyering
* tests/misc/env: Create ./-i as a link to our "echo" binary, rather than as a bourne shell script, so that env can exec it. Set PATH to ".".
2009-10-26tests: nice: adjust new tests to work more portablyJim Meyering
* tests/misc/nice (tests): Accommodate a nice program for which "nice -n -1 nice" prints nothing. It should print -1 or (usually) 0. Otherwise, we'd get syntax errors.

2009-10-23nohup: use EXIT_CANCELED if not POSIXLY_CORRECTEric Blake
* src/nohup.c (NOHUP_FAILURE): Rename... (POSIX_NOHUP_FAILURE): ...to this. (main): Pay attention to POSIXLY_CORRECT, to determine whether to use status 125 or 127. * doc/coreutils.texi (nohup invocation): Document this. * NEWS: Likewise. * tests/misc/invalid-opt (exit_status): Adjust expected results. * tests/misc/help-version (expected_failure_status): Likewise. * tests/misc/nohup: Likewise.
2009-10-23chroot, env, nice, su: use EXIT_CANCELED for internal failureEric Blake
* src/chroot.c (main): Use EXIT_CANCELED, not EXIT_FAILURE. * src/env.c (main): Likewise. * src/nice.c (main): Likewise. * src/su.c (change_identity, main): Likewise. * doc/coreutils.texi (chroot invocation, env invocation) (nice invocation, su invocation): Document this. * NEWS: Likewise. * tests/misc/invalid-opt (exit_status): Adjust expected results. * tests/misc/help-version (expected_failure_status): Likewise.

This adds 5% to the run time in the worst case of many zero length files, or 2% with standard file sizes. * src/sum.c (main): Likewise. * tests/misc/md5sum-parallel: New test for atomic output. * tests/Makefile.am: Reference it. * NEWS: Mention the fix
2009-10-08stat: test recent patchEric Blake
* tests/misc/stat-slash: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Run it.
2009-10-07md5sum, sha*sum: also accept openssl checksum syntaxGuenter Knauf
* src/md5sum.c (split_3): Accept openssl checksum syntax, which differs only by two spaces from that of the bsd checksum tools: openssl: MD5(f)= d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e bsd: MD5 (f) = d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e
2009-09-29stat: interpret "-" as standard inputJim Meyering
* src/stat.c (do_stat): Interpret a command line argument of "-" to mean "standard input", like many other tools do. (do_statfs): Fail upon any attempt to use "-". * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention it. * tests/misc/stat-hyphen: New test, to exercise the above. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add misc/stat-hyphen.
2009-09-14maint: use #!/bin/sh consistently in shell-based test scriptsJim Meyering
* tests/misc/sort-continue: Change first line to standard #!/bin/sh, not #!/bin/bash (though it doesn't matter, since each is invoked via $(SHELL) dir/test-name.
2009-09-14cp,mv: preserve extended attributes even for read-only filesOndřej Vašík
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Temporarily set u+rw on the destination file to allow GNU/Linux to set xattrs. * tests/misc/xattr: Test that change. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Reported by Ernest N. Mamikonyan.
2009-09-08tests: address a race condition in misc/cat-bufPádraig Brady
* tests/misc/cat-buf: Increase the delay between writes to decrease the chance that dd will read both at once. Since the test is inherently racy, print a warning via skip_test_ rather than failing outright. Reported by Jim Meyering.
2009-09-07tests: misc/cat-buf: clean up syntaxJim Meyering
* tests/misc/cat-buf: Don't suppress dd's stderr. Remove useless quotes.
2009-09-06tests: ls-misc: don't let a bogus umask cause test failureJim Meyering
* tests/misc/ls-misc: Set umask to 022. A umask setting permitting world-write access, e.g., umask o+w, would cause this test to fail. Report by Mathias Brodala and analysis by Tom Fitzhenry in <http://bugs.debian.org/544965>.
2009-08-30tests: don't misbehave if $TMPDIR contains spacesPádraig Brady

2009-08-28dd: detect closed stderrEric Blake
* src/dd.c (maybe_close_stdout): Always flush stderr; regression introduced in commit 381e69ea. * tests/misc/close-stdout (p): Use consistent style. * tests/dd/stderr: New test, borrowing from misc/close-stdout. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Run it. * NEWS: Mention this.
2009-08-25global: convert indentation-TABs to spacesJim Meyering
Transformed via this shell code: t=$'\t' git ls-files \ | grep -vE '(^|/)((GNU)?[Mm]akefile|ChangeLog)|\.(am|mk)$' \ | grep -vE 'tests/pr/|help2man' \ | xargs grep -lE "^ *$t" \ | xargs perl -MText::Tabs -ni -le \ '$m=/^( *\t[ \t]*)(.*)/; print $m ? expand($1) . $2 : $_'

2009-08-18tests: stdbuf: fix a bug in test scriptJim Meyering
* tests/misc/stdbuf: Use skip_test_ only after it's defined. Reported by Berhnard Voelker. (sc_check-AUTHORS): Rename rule from check-AUTHORS.
2009-08-14tests: skip the misc/stdbuf test if stdbuf was not builtJim Meyering
* tests/misc/stdbuf: Skip this test when stdbuf is not built. Reported by Eric Blake.
