If the file B already exists, commands like 'ln -f A B' and
'cp -fl A B' no longer remove B before creating the new link.
Instead, they arrange for the new link to replace B atomically.
This should fix a race condition reported by Mike Crowe (Bug#25680).
* NEWS, doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation, ln invocation):
Document this.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add symlinkat.
* src/copy.c, src/ln.c: Include force-link.h.
* src/copy.c (same_file_ok): It's also OK to remove a destination
symlink when creating symbolic links, or when the source and
destination are on the same file system and when creating hard links.
* src/copy.c (create_hard_link, copy_internal):
* src/ln.c (do_link):
Rewrite using force_linkat and force_symlinkat, to close a window
where the destination temporarily does not exist.
* src/cp.c (main): Do not set x.unlink_dest_before_opening
merely because we are in link-creation mode.
* src/force-link.c, src/force-link.h: New files.
* src/local.mk (copy_sources, src_ln_SOURCES): Add them.
* tests/cp/same-file.sh: Adjust test case to match fixed behavior.
|
|
* src/tail.c (check_fspec): Only enable printing of the file header
if we've actually read some data and this is a new file. Also
move printing of the file header to...
(dump_remainder): ...here, to allow printing only when data read.
* tests/tail-2/overlay-headers.sh: A new test for suspension
and resumption of tail.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/23539

|
* tests/tail-2/retry.sh: The replacement of the "missing" directory
is not atomic, and therefore tail(1) can take a different path,
especially if there is a delay between the rmdir(2) and creat(2).
This is noticeable for example with `make coverage` because in
that case the coverage files written by rmdir(1) on exit,
induce a significant delay thus triggering the issue.
|
|
* src/tail.c (recheck): Set f->ignore before we
use it to show the appropriate error.
* tests/tail-2/retry.sh: Ensure the "giving up" message
is not presented.

Problem reported by Paul Wise for Debian, in:
https://bugs.debian.org/851934
This is fallout from the fix for GNU Bug#23035.
* src/date.c (batch_convert): New args TZ and TZSTRING.
All uses changed.
(batch_convert, main): Adjust to parse_datetime2 API change.
(main): Allocate time zone object.
* tests/misc/date-debug.sh: Fix incorrect test case,
caught by the fix.
* tests/misc/date.pl: Test the fix.

A lot of this is converting http: to https:.
Also, gmane went away, so remove URLs that no longer work and
are not easy to figure out what they were.
Some of this stuff is so old that it no longer matters anyway.

* src/stty.c (apply_settings): A new function refactored
from main() that is used to both check and apply options.
(main): Call apply_settings before we open the device,
so all validation is done before interacting with a device.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* tests/misc/stty.sh: Add a test case.

Update tests following improvements to gnulib's parse-datetime.y module.
See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2017-01/msg00002.html
* tests/misc/date-debug.sh: Add tests for each of the gnulib changes.

Run "make update-copyright" and then...
* gnulib: Update to latest with copyright year adjusted.
* tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year.
* bootstrap: Likewise.
* tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year.

* tests/chgrp/basic.sh: On some NFS setups a user is
not allowed to set a group on a file even if a member
of that group. Therefore skip this test on remote file systems.

* tests/chgrp/no-x.sh: Likewise.
* tests/chgrp/posix-H.sh: Likewise.
* tests/chgrp/recurse.sh: Likewise.

* src/wc.c (wc): Avoid reading the end of the file
when the size is not a multiple of PAGE_SIZE,
as the special case handling for files in /proc and /sys
is only required when st_size is 0 or a multiple of PAGE_SIZE.
* tests/misc/wc-proc.sh: Add a test case.
|
|
While st_size would have been incorrect for subsequent
files since v7.1, it was only used since v8.24.
* tests/misc/wc-files0.sh: s/7.1/8.24/
* NEWS: Likewise.
Reported by Bernhard Voelker
|
|
* src/wc.c (main): Reset fstatus[0].failed between files when reusing
the fstatus[0] entry in --files-from0 mode. This ensures a stat() is
done for each file, avoiding incorrect counts and redundant reading.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* tests/misc/wc-files0.sh: Add a test case.

When running "make check" on a Linux system running SELinux with a
non-MLS policy, tests/mkdir/restorecon.sh test fails with:
chcon: invalid context: root:object_r:tmp_t:s0: Invalid argument
Indeed in such a configuration, contexts cannot have ":s0" suffix.
* init.cfg (get_selinux_type): Refactor this function to here
from various tests. Update to work with a non-MLS policy.
(mls_enabled_): A new function to detect if MLS is enabled.

MLS is not enabled.

when `touch -m -d ...` fails (Hurd).
* tests/tail-2/follow-stdin.sh: Avoid false FAILs by ignoring
the variances in sterror output.
* tests/rm/rm-readdir-fail.sh: Likewise. Also avoid ERRORs
on systems that don't define _D_EXACT_NAMELEN.

This was detected with ASAN, but can also be seen without ASAN with:
$ tac - - <&-
tac: standard input: read error: Bad file descriptor

This provides better alignment when some names are quoted,
which also provides better indication that quotes are not
part of the name.

refactored from...
