2015-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesPádraig Brady
Run "make update-copyright" and then... * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year. * tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle-v2.sh: Fix case in copyright message, so that year is updated automatically in future.
2014-12-30tests: fix possible 8 minute running time of inotify-rotate.shPádraig Brady
Commit v8.23-63-g111a2b9 removed the expensive tag on this test, as it runs quickly on systems with inotify. However without that it would take about 8 minutes for the test to complete all iterations. * tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate.sh: Tag as expensive without inotify. Also adjust the polling parameters used on systems without inotify so that the test completes within about 15 seconds.
2014-12-30build: update to latest gnulibPádraig Brady
Included in this are gnulib changes 3ea43e02 2768ceb7 which make the device IDs from /proc/self/mountinfo available to df. This can be leveraged by a subsequent change to df to present a more accurate list of file systems. * bootstrap: Merge from gnulib. * src/ls.c (dev_ino_pop): s/obstack_blank/obstack_blank_fast/ as this API/ABI has changed, giving memory exhausted errors if negative (large positive) numbers are passed to obstack_blank(). * tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Adjust as the new gnulib code requires a non NULL mnt_opts even when mnt_type is not "none".
2014-12-25tests: fix error message check on some systemsPádraig Brady
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/18129583 identified (on OS X) an incorrect test assumption in the previous commit. * gl/lib/xdectoint.c (__xnumtoint): Suppress the EINVAL error message as it's redundant in this context. * tests/misc/tail.pl: Suppress _optionally_ appended strerror messages. * tests/fmt/base.pl: Likewise. * tests/pr/pr-tests.pl: Likewise. * tests/split/l-chunk.sh: Likewise.
2014-12-19diagnose too-large numbers betterPádraig Brady
Following on from commit v8.23-82-gaddae94, consistently diagnose numbers that are too large, so as to distinguish from other errors, and make the limits obvious. * gl/modules/xdectoint: A new module implementing xdecto[iu]max(), which handles the common case of parsing a bounded integer and exiting with a diagnostic on error. * gl/lib/xdectoimax.c: The signed variant. * gl/lib/xdectoint.c: The parameterized implementation. * gl/lib/xdectoint.h: The interface. * gl/lib/xdectoumax.c: The unsigned variant. * bootstrap.conf: Reference the new module. * cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_require_config_h_first): Exclude the parameterized templates. * src/csplit.c: Output EOVERFLOW or ERANGE errors if appropriate. * src/fmt.c: Likewise. * src/fold.c: Likewise. * src/head.c: Likewise. * src/ls.c: Likewise. * src/nl.c: Likewise. * src/nproc.c: Likewise. * src/shred.c: Likewise. * src/shuf.c: Likewise. * src/stdbuf.c: Likewise. * src/stty.c: Likewise. * src/tail.c: Likewise. * src/truncate.c: Likewise. * src/split.c: Likewise. * src/pr.c: Likewise. * tests/pr/pr-tests.pl: Adjust to avoid matching errno diagnostic. * tests/fmt/base.pl: Likewise. * tests/split/l-chunk.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/shred-negative.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/tail.pl: Likewise. Also remove the redundant existing ERR_SUBST from test err-6. * tests/ls/hex-option.sh: Check HEX/OCT options. * tests/misc/shred-size.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/stty-row-col.sh: Likewise.
2014-12-10build: use the system printf routines in most casesPádraig Brady
glibc <= 2.5 would crash when passed invalid long double values, therefore internal gnulib routines were used, essentially only by od, to output such invalid values. Later glibc versions don't crash, as per https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4586 and subsequently od was adjusted to use the system printf routines through the use of the ftoastr module with commit v8.7-22-ga71c22f. Consequently our testing of this feature was moot, and use of the gnulib printf replacement for printf(1), od(1) and error(3) etc. was redundant. * configure.ac (gl_printf_safe): Unset so that we don't check that "nan" is output for these long double values. * tests/misc/od-float.sh: Adjust all existing checks to fail if od exits with failure status (like crashing for example). Add a new case for one of the problematic invalid long double values for x86_64. We only check that od exits successfully at present, which may change if https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17661 is resolved.
2014-12-02du: handle sub-bind-mount cycles gracefullyBoris Ranto
This patch fixes the handling of sub-bind-mount cycles which are incorrectly detected as the file system errors. If you bind mount the directory 'a' to its subdirectory 'a/b/c' and then run 'du a/b' you will get the circular dependency warning even though nothing is wrong with the file system. This happens because the first directory that is traversed twice in this case is not a bind mount but a child of bind mount. The solution is to traverse all the directories in the cycle that fts detected and check whether they are not a (bind) mount. * src/du.c (mount_point_in_fts_cycle): New function that checks whether any of the directories in the cycle that fts detected is a mount point. * src/du.c (process_file): Update the function to use the new function that looks up all the directories in the fts cycle instead of only the last one. * tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle-v2.sh: New test case that exhibits the described behavior. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new root test. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
2014-11-29tests: avoid hardlink to symlink tests where not supportedPádraig Brady
These checks weren't correctly avoided in commit v8.23-66-g222d7ac * tests/cp/same-file.sh: Avoid all hardlink to symlink tests on platforms where that's not supported. Identified by http://hydra.nixos.org/build/17636446
2014-11-26tests: fix portability issue in dd/ascii testPádraig Brady
Solaris 8 was seen to issue this error: "printf: `&': illegal format character" * test/dd/ascii.sh: Use the coreutils printf in this test rather than the system one, to avoid portability issues.
2014-11-24df: only suppress remote mounts of separate exports with --totalPádraig Brady
* src/df.c (filter_mount_list): Separate remote locations are generally explicitly mounted, so list each even if they share the same remote device and thus storage. However with --total keep the suppression to give a more accurate value for the total storage available. (usage): Expand on the new implications of --total and move it in the options list according to alphabetic order. doc/coreutils.texi (df invocation): Mention that --total impacts on deduplication of remote file systems and also move location according to alphabetic order. * tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Add remote test cases. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior. Reported in http://bugs.debian.org/737399 Reported in http://bugzilla.redhat.com/920806 Reported in http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/866010 Reported in http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/901905
2014-11-22tests: add a case verifying mv on case insensitive file systemsPádraig Brady
* NEWS: Update the recent entry to also mention the avoidance of incorrectly unlinking a multi-hardlinked "source" file when presented with source and dest that only differ in case. * src/copy.c (same_file_ok): Mention the case issue with same_name(). * tests/mv/hardlink-case.sh: Test the issue on HFS+. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test case. * tests/mv/vfat: Remove an old related but unused test case.
2014-11-21tests: chcon: avoid false failure with newer selinuxPádraig Brady
file_t is now mapped to unlabeled_t as per: http://danwalsh.livejournal.com/68189.html Therefore use the latter to ensure we match correctly. This is needed on >= Fedora 21 for example, while it also works on earlier releases.
2014-11-21mv: fail when moving a file to a hardlinkBoris Ranto
We may run into a race condition if we treat hard links to the same file as distinct files. If we do 'mv a b' and 'mv b a' in parallel, both a and b can disappear from the file system. The reason is that in this case the unlink on src is called and the system calls can end up being run in the order where unlink(a) and unlink(b) are the last two system calls. Therefore exit with an error code so that we avoid the potential data loss. * src/copy.c (same_file_ok): Don't set unlink_src that was used by mv, and return false for two hardlinks to a file in move_mode. *src/copy.c (copy_internal): No longer honor the unlink_src option, used only by mv. NEWS: Mention the change in behavior. * tests/cp/same-file.sh: Augment to cover the `cp -a hlsl1 sl1` case. * tests/mv/hard-verbose.sh: Remove no longer needed test. * tests/local.mk: Remove the reference to hard-verbose.sh. * tests/mv/hard-4.sh: Adjust so we fail in this case. * tests/mv/i-4.sh: Likewise. * tests/mv/symlink-onto-hardlink-to-self.sh: Likewise.
2014-10-30maint: tests: fix comments about retry_delay_Pádraig Brady
* tests/tail-2/F-vs-missing.sh: Comment with the correct total delay. * tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename.shi: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/flush-initial.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-hash-abuse.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/pipe-f2.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Initialize can_chroot_root in all cases.
2014-10-30tests: make inotify-rotate more robust and efficientPádraig Brady
* tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate.sh: Use retry_delay_ to employ an exponential backoff with a total delay of up to 25.5s. The 15s delay was seen to trigger a false failure in http://hydra.nixos.org/build/16546517 Also remove the .1s sleep in each of the 50 iterations to reduce the running time of the test and thus the expensive_ tag on this test was removed. Also ensure that we use the standard exit procedure upon failure to avoid any erroneous diagnostics due to persistent files on NFS.
2014-10-29tests: make du/move-dir-while-traversing more robustBernhard Voelker
* tests/du/move-dir-while-traversing.sh: Catch failure of retry_delay_ when waiting for the watcher to get ready.
2014-10-23tests: d_type-check: don't hardcode the C library nameMike Frysinger
* tests/d_type-check: The hardcoded name doesn't hold true for all Linux/glibc platforms, let alone Linux/non-glibc. Use ctypes.util.find_library() instead to search for the library.
2014-10-17tests: avoid false failure when comparing /proc filesBernhard Voelker
At least the MHz number in /proc/cpuinfo may change, thus leading to a false positive failure when comparing the expected against the actual output file. Use an invariant file instead: /proc/version. * tests/misc/head-c.sh: s/cpuinfo/version/
2014-10-16tests: fix test hang with unstable inodes in /procPádraig Brady
* cp/proc-zero-len.sh: Search the 'err' file for the error to ignore, not stdin.
2014-10-16chroot: call chroot() unconditionally to handle bind mounted "/"Pádraig Brady
* src/chroot.c (is_root): Adjust to compare canonicalized paths rather than inodes, to handle (return false in) the case where we have a tree that is constructed by first bind mounting "/" (thus having the same inode). (main): Unconditionally call chroot() because it's safer and of minimal performance benefit to avoid in this case. This will cause inconsistency with some platforms not allowing `chroot / true` for non root users. * tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Adjust appropriately. * NEWS: Mention the bug fixes. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/18736
2014-10-15copy: detect smaller holes than the copy buffer sizePádraig Brady
Previously cp would not detect runs of NULs that were smaller than the buffer size used for I/O (currently 128KiB). * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Use an independent hole_size, set to st_blksize, to increase the chances of detecting a representable hole, in a run of NULs read from the input. (create_hole): A new function refactored from sparse_copy() and extent_copy() so we have a single place to handle holes. (sparse_copy): Adjust to loop over the larger input buffer in chunks of the passed hole size. Also adjust to only call lseek once per hole, rather than at least once per input buffer. * tests/cp/sparse.sh: Add test cases for various sparse chunk sizes. * NEWS: Mention the improvement.
2014-10-07tests: split/b-chunk.sh: avoid spurious fail on non-LinuxJim Meyering
* tests/split/b-chunk.sh: Skip each file that does not exist. Some systems lack /proc/version or /sys/kernel/profiling
2014-10-08maint: avoid syntax-check failures in previous patchPádraig Brady
* tests/misc/od-j.sh: Non standard comparison order. * tests/split/b-chunk.sh: Confusing input file name. * tests/tail-2/tail-c.sh: Redundant require ulimit.
2014-10-07wc: don't miscount /sys and similar file systemsPaul Eggert
Fix similar problems in head, od, split, tac, and tail. Reported by George Shuklin in: http://bugs.gnu.org/18621 * NEWS: Document this. * src/head.c (elseek): Move up. (elide_tail_bytes_pipe, elide_tail_lines_pipe): New arg CURRENT_POS. All uses changed. (elide_tail_bytes_file, elide_tail_lines_file): New arg ST and remove arg SIZE. All uses changed. * src/head.c (elide_tail_bytes_file): * src/od.c (skip): Avoid optimization for /sys files, where st_size is bogus and st_size == st_blksize. Don't report error at EOF when not optimizing. * src/head.c, src/od.c, src/tail.c: Include "stat-size.h". * src/split.c (input_file_size): New function. (bytes_split, lines_chunk_split, bytes_chunk_extract): New arg INITIAL_READ. All uses changed. Use it to double-check st_size. * src/tac.c (tac_seekable): New arg FILE_POS. All uses changed. (copy_to_temp): Return size of temp file. All uses changed. * src/tac.c (tac_seekable): * src/tail.c (tail_bytes): * src/wc.c (wc): Don't trust st_size; double-check by reading. * src/wc.c (wc): New arg CURRENT_POS. All uses changed. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add tests/misc/wc-proc.sh, tests/misc/od-j.sh, tests/tail-2/tail-c.sh. * tests/misc/head-c.sh: * tests/misc/tac-2-nonseekable.sh: * tests/split/b-chunk.sh: Add tests for problems with /proc and /sys files. * tests/misc/od-j.sh, tests/misc/wc-proc.sh, tests/tail-2/tail-c.sh: New files.
2014-09-30dd: new status=progress level to print stats periodicallyFederico Simoncelli
* src/dd.c: Report the transfer progress every second when the new status=progress level is used. Adjust the handling and description of the status= option so that they're treated as mutually exclusive levels, rather than flags with implicit precedence. * doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Document the new progress status level. Reference the new level in the description of SIGUSR1. * tests/dd/stats.sh: Add new test for status=progress. * tests/dd/misc.sh: Change so status=none only takes precedence if it's the last level specified. * NEWS: Mention the feature.
2014-09-30dd: use more robust SIGUSR1 handlingPádraig Brady
* src/dd.c (ifd_reopen): A new wrapper to ensure we don't exit upon receiving a SIGUSR1 in a blocking open() on a fifo for example. (iftruncate): Likewise for ftruncate(). (iread): Process signals also after a short read. (install_signal_handlers): Install SIGINFO/SIGUSR1 handler even if set to SIG_IGN, as this is what the parent can easily set from a shell script that can send SIGUSR1 without the possiblity of inadvertently killing the dd process. * doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Improve the example to show robust usage wrt signal races and short reads. * tests/dd/stats.sh: A new test for various signal races. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test. * NEWS: Mention the fix.
2014-09-24test: check for Fedora 20 sort key bugPaul Eggert
Problem reported by Göran Uddeborg in: http://bugs.gnu.org/18540 * tests/misc/sort.pl: New test 23.
2014-09-19cp: fix handling of -H with multiply specified source dirsPádraig Brady
Following on from commit v5.92-729-g130dd06, also avoid the erroneous directory hardlink warning with -H. * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Also handle the -H case for command line arguments. * tests/cp/duplicate-sources.sh: Augment the test case. * NEWS: Augment the news entry.
2014-09-19cp: issue correct warning and ignore duplicate source dirsPádraig Brady
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Handle the case where we have the same destination directory as already encountered, which can only be due to the corresponding source directory being specified multiple times. * tests/cp/duplicate-sources.sh: Add a test for the new multiply specified directory case, and the existing multiply specified file case. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
2014-09-16tests: fix false du failure on newer XFSBernhard Voelker
On XFS, when creating the ~2G test file 'big' in a for-loop by appending 20M each time, the file ends up using ~4G - visible in 'st_blocks'. The unused space would be reclaimed later. This feature is called "speculative preallocation" which aims at avoiding fragmentation. According to the XFS FAQ [1], there are two particular aspects of XFS speculative preallocation that are triggering this: 1. "Applications that repeatedly trigger preallocation and reclaim cycles [after file close] can cause fragmentation. Therefore, this pattern is detected and causes the preallocation to persist beyond the lifecycle of the file descriptor." 2. "Preallocation sizes grow as files grow larger." [1] http://xfs.org/index.php/XFS_FAQ Avoid one of the above by only doing a single close (reclaim cycle). * tests/du/2g.sh: Similar to the fix for a dd test (see commit v8.22-65-g7c03fe2), avoid speculative preallocation by creating the 'big' file in one go instead of appending to it in the loop. Remove debugging statements as the output with 'set -x' is sufficient nowadays.
2014-09-11cat: allow copying empty files to themselvesPaul Eggert
Problem reported by Vincent Lefevre in: http://bugs.gnu.org/18449 * src/cat.c (main): Allow copying an empty file to itself. * tests/misc/cat-self.sh: New test. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add it.
2014-08-01tests: fix typo in tail-2/inotify-racePaul Eggert
Reported by Andreas Schwab in: http://bugs.gnu.org/18057 * tests/tail-2/inotify-race.sh (break_src): Use abs_top_srcdir, not abs_top_builddir.
2014-08-01chroot: perform chdir("/") again unless new --skip-chdir is specifiedBernhard Voelker
Since commit v8.22-94-g99960ee, chroot(1) skips the chroot(2) syscall for "/" arguments (and synonyms). The problem is that it also skips the following chdir("/") call in that case. The latter breaks existing scripts which expect "/" to be the working directory inside the chroot. While the first part of the change - i.e., skipping chroot("/") - is okay for consistency with systems where it might succeed for a non-root user, the second part might be malicious, e.g. cd /home/user && chroot '/' bin/foo In the "best" case, chroot(1) could not execute 'bin/foo' with ENOENT, but in the worst case, chroot(1) would execute '/home/user/bin/foo' in the case that exists - instead of '/bin/foo'. Revert that second part of the patch, i.e., perform the chdir("/) in the common case again - unless the new --skip-chdir option is specified. Restrict this new option to the case of "/" arguments. * src/chroot.c (SKIP_CHDIR): Add enum. (long_opts): Add entry for the new --skip-chdir option. (usage): Add --skip-chdir option, and while at it, move the other to options into alphabetical order. (main): Accept the above new option, allowing it only in the case when NEWROOT is the old "/". Move down the chdir() call after the if-clause to ensure it is run in any case - unless --skip-chdir is specified. Add a 'newroot' variable for the new root directory as it is used in a couple of places now. * tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Invert the last tests which check the working directory of the execvp()ed program when a "/"-like argument was passed: now expect it to be "/" - unless --skip-chdir is given. * doc/coreutils.texi (chroot invocation): Document the new option. Document that chroot(1) usually calls chdir("/") unless the new --skip-chdir option is specified. Sort options. * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the fix. (New features): Mention the new option. * init.cfg (nonroot_has_perm_): Add chroot's new --skip-chdir option. * tests/cp/preserve-gid.sh (t1): Likewise. * tests/cp/special-bits.sh: Likewise. * tests/id/setgid.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/truncate-owned-by-other.sh: Likewise. * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/fail-2eperm.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/no-give-up.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/now-owned-by-other.sh: Likewise. Reported by Andreas Schwab in http://bugs.gnu.org/18062
2014-07-18tests: fix false failure with spaces in the test directoryPádraig Brady
* tests/misc/env.sh: Skip if we can't execute the generated shebang, which would be the case if there are spaces in the directory hierarchy. This is triggered by `make distcheck`
2014-07-18tests: fix false failure in cp --preserve=context testPádraig Brady
With libselinux-2.2.1-6.fc20.x86_64, kernel-3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 `cp --preserve=context src dst` was seen to succeed when src and dst where on the same fixed context file system, as lsetfilecon() returned success in this case when the context wasn't being changed. * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux.sh: Copy from a different file system to most likely have a different context that will test context setting logic correctly.
2014-07-14tests: fix portabilitiy issue in new od-endian testPádraig Brady
* tests/misc/od-endian.sh: '\n' is not generally supported in the replacement, so use the more portable "\\$NL".
2014-07-14tests: fix portability issue in new dd/ascii testPádraig Brady
* tests/dd/ascii.sh: Quote so that '\\' is passed to printf rather than a single '\', as that's not portable. bash, dash, zsh and external solaris printf were seen to support printf '\%03o' 1 2 while ksh, freebsh shell and external GNU printf need the more portable printf '\\%03o' 1 2 Note we don't use env here to call the coreutils printf implementation, as there are many printf calls, so relying on portable shell implementations will be faster.
2014-07-14tests: avoid hang when files created with wrong permissionsPádraig Brady
* tests/split/b-chunk.sh: Never show the rm prompt which would hang the test suite. This was seen when split erroneously created files with no persmissions, which was triggered by this compiler bug in clang 3.4: http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=18346
2014-07-13build: support building all tools in a single binaryAlex Deymo
Add the --enable-single-binary option to the configure file. When enabled, this option builds a single binary file containing the selected tools. Which tool gets executed depends on the value of argv[0] which can be set implicitly through symlinks to the single program. This setup reduces significantly the size of a complete coreutils install, since code from lib/libcoreutils.a is not duplicated in every one of the more than 100 binaries. Runtime overhead is increased due to more dynamic libraries being loaded, and extra initialization being performed for all utils. Also initially a larger binary is loaded from storage, though this is usually alleviated due to caching and lazy mmaping of unused blocks, and in fact the single binary should have better caching characteristics. Comparing the size of the individual versus single binary on x86_64: $ cd src $ size coreutils $ size -t $(../build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh --list-progs | grep -Ev '(coreutils|libstdbuf)') | tail -n1 text data bss dec hex filename 1097416 5388 88432 1191236 122d44 src/coreutils 4901010 124964 163768 5189742 4f306e (TOTALS) Storage requirements are reduced similarly: $ cd src $ du -h coreutils $ du -ch $(../build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh --list-progs | grep -Ev '(coreutils|libstdbuf)') | tail -n1 1.2M coreutils 5.3M total When installing, the makefile will create either symlinks or shebangs based on the --enable-single-binary setting, for each configured tool. In this way, all the tools are still callable individually, but they are all implemented by the same "coreutils" binary installed on the same directory. * .gitignore: Add new generated files. * Makefile.am: New rules to generate build-aux/gen-single-binary.sh and install symlinks. * NEWS: Mention the new feature. * README: Add "coreutils" to the list of utils. * bootstrap.conf: Regenerate src/single-binary.mk * build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh: New --list-progs option. * build-aux/gen-single-binary.sh: Regenerate * configure.ac: New --enable-single-binary option and other variables. Disallow --enable-single-binary=symlinks with --program-prefix et. al. * man/coreutils.x: Manpage hook. * man/local.mk: Add manpage hook and fix dependencies. * src/coreutils.c: Multicall implementation. * src/local.mk: New rules for the single binary option. * tests/local.mk: Add $single_binary_progs to support require_built_() from init.cfg * tests/misc/env.sh: Avoid the use of symlink to echo. * tests/misc/help-version.sh: Add exception for coreutils. * tests/install/basic-1.sh: Really avoid using ginstall strip functionality if there is an issue with the independent strip command. * src/kill.c: Changes to call exit() in main. * src/readlink.c: Likewise. * src/shuf.c: Likewise. * src/timeout.c: Likewise. * src/truncate.c: Likewise.
2014-07-04maint: simplify parsing df's output in shell scriptsBernhard Voelker
Avoid complicated and error-prone parsing of df's output via sed(1), cut(1), etc., and instead use df's more modern --output option. * src/ioblksize.h (in a comment): Simplify the extraction of the device name of the mounted file system from df's output. * tests/dd/skip-seek-past-dev.sh: Likewise. * tests/du/2g.sh: Likewise for the 'avail' column here. Also avoid the deprecated use of "tail -NUM". * tests/misc/stat-mount.sh: While at it, remove the determination of the mount point of "." via df(1) plus sed(1) as it is unused since commit v8.5-159-gf57cb37 anyway. Instead, improve this test by verifying that the output of "stat -c%m ." at least starts with a slash '/'.
2014-07-02pwd: revert default mode back to -PPádraig Brady
Revert commit v8.22-131-g3e89d5b as even though POSIX states that the default mode should be -L, common practice for stand-alone pwd implementations is to default to -P. * src/pwd.c (usage): Retain mention of the default mode of operation. Suggested by Bob Proulx
2014-07-02tests: avoid false failure with spaces in mount point pathsPádraig Brady
* tests/ls/readdir-mountpoint-inode.sh: Quote appropriately to process mount points with spaces in the path. Previously items like these would usually be skipped, though if the path also contained a '-' for example, that would stat stdin, thus producing a wrong inode and a false failure. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/17863
2014-07-02tests: avoid errors on systems without getmntentPádraig Brady
* tests/df/no-mtab-status.sh: Skip if getmntent() not available. * tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Likewise. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/17863
2014-07-02tests: use "env builtin" in place of "$abs_top_builddir/src/builtin"Jim Meyering
This works for any program that might also be a shell built-in. It is more concise. In addition, it makes output more reproducible: some diagnostics include argv[0], which will now be just the program name, rather than the full absolute name of the executable. * tests/misc/sort-compress.sh: Use env kill, rather than absolute name. * tests/install/trap.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/timeout.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/no-dereference.sh: Do the same for two uses of "test". * tests/touch/no-create-missing.sh: Likewise.
2014-07-01tests: adapt tests to change in pwd's defaultJim Meyering
* tests/misc/pwd-option.sh (base): Initialize with -P, now that -L is the default, to accommodate an initial working directory with a symlink component. * tests/misc/readlink-fp-loop.sh: Use $(env pwd -P) to get the absolute working directory. Using "env" ensures we do not invoke any shell built-in, and PATH ensures we invoke the one from coreutils. * tests/readlink/can-e.sh: Likewise. * tests/readlink/can-f.sh: Likewise. * tests/readlink/can-m.sh: Likewise.
2014-07-01maint: fix const correctness warnings with security_context_tPádraig Brady
The security_context_t type was always an artificial separation from a standard char* string, and various libselinux using code assumed both were synonymous. In addition, prior to libselinux 2.3 function declarations were incorrect wrt constness of this type. Here we replace security_context_t with char*, and also provide a wrapper function to cater for the const issue on older libselinux. * src/system.h (se_const): A new function to avoid and identify the const issue on older libselinux. * src/copy.c: s/security_context_t/char */. * src/cp.c: Likewise. * src/id.c: Likewise. * src/install.c: Likewise. * src/ls.c: Likewise. * src/mkdir.c: Likewise. * src/mkfifo.c: Likewise. * src/mknod.c: Likewise. * src/runcon.c: Likewise. * src/selinux.c: Likewise. * tests/cp/no-ctx.sh: Likewise. * src/chcon.c: Likesize.
2014-06-30pwd: assume -L mode by default, as per POSIXPádraig Brady
* src/pwd.c (main): Adjust default mode to be "logical" and independent of the POSIXLY_CORRECT env var. (usage): Mention the default mode of operation. * doc/coreutils.texi (pwd invocation): Adjust accordingly. * tests/misc/pwd-option.sh: Likewise. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
2014-06-26tests: use predetermined NON_ROOT_GIDPádraig Brady
* HACKING: GID is more useful in tests than group name, so rename input param from NON_ROOT_GROUP to NON_ROOT_GID to make it obvious that only a group ID is now acceptable, thus allowing GID lookups to be avoided throughout the tests. * init.cfg (require_root_): Likewise. * tests/misc/truncate-owned-by-other.sh: Avoid looking up the GID. * tests/touch/now-owned-by-other.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/chroot-credentials.sh: Likewise. Also fix an instance of comparison against NON_ROOT_GROUP which would have given a false failure if a non numeric value was passed in. * tests/id/setgid.sh: Use previously looked up gid as a more accurate base for the subsequent adjustment, and move the uid lookup within chroot, rather than having the overhead of a separate `id` invocation.
2014-06-26id: output the effective group for the processPetr Stodůlka
* src/id.c (print_full_info): When no user is specified, output the effective group for the _process_, rather than the default group from the system database, which may be different. * tests/id/setgid.sh: Add a case for `id` as well as `id -G`. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/7320 Reported at http://bugzilla.redhat.com/1016163
2014-06-25df: report correct device in presence of eclipsed mountsPádraig Brady
* src/df.c (last_device_for_mount): A new function to identify the last device mounted for a mount point. (get_disk): Use the above to discard mount entries for a device, where a later mount entry uses a different device name than that of the user specified device. * tests/df/over-mount-device.sh: A new root test. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test. * NEWS: Reword for all these related recent fixes.
