dd oflag=direct would fail to copy a file with size that is
not a multiple of 512 (destination file system specific)
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* src/dd.c (iwrite): Turn off O_DIRECT for any
smaller-than-obs-sized write. Don't bother to restore it.
* tests/dd/direct: New test for the above.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dd/direct.
* doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Mention oflag=direct
buffer size restriction.
Details in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/17586

* src/copy.c (utimensat_if_possible): New function.
(copy_internal): Remove variable, "preserve_metadata".
Replace with "dest_is_symlink". That covers all cases but one:
the one in which cp --link has created hard links to non-directories.
In that case, there is no need to update attributes of the links.
Use utimensat_if_possible, to preserve timestamps of symlinks.
* NEWS (New features): Mention this.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp/preserve-slink-time.
* tests/cp/preserve-slink-time: New file.
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): Test for utimensat.

* tests/ls/multihardlink: Add a test case to demonstrate
and test this non obvious behavior.

* src/ls.c: Rename hl->mh, do not colorize files with multiple
hard links by default.

* src/chroot.c (set_additional_groups): Add comments.
Given an empty or all-comma group list, diagnose it and return nonzero.
When more than one group is invalid, diagnose all of them,
not just the first.

Now that set_additional_groups consistently diagnoses its failures,
don't diagnose it separately here.
* tests/chroot/credentials: Do not invoke with an empty group list.

This also allows one to set the user-ID or primary group-ID to 0,
in case it's not that already.

* tests/misc/date-next-dow: In the strftime call use %Y-%m-%d
rather than the newer %F equivalent which is not available
on Solaris 8 for example.
|

also upon irregular termination.
|
|
* tests/misc/date-next-dow: New file.

* tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: Ensure that the -a option does not silence
error diagnostics from --preserve=context, when preserving context
is required.
|

displayed correctly when destination filesystem lacks xattr support.

Remove the optimization that avoided up to 50% of cp's read syscalls.
Do not assume that a short read on a regular file indicates EOF.
When reading from a file in /proc on linux [at least 2.6.9 - 2.6.29]
into a 4k-byte buffer or larger, a short read does not
always indicate EOF. For example, "cp /proc/slabinfo /tmp"
copies only 4068 of the total 7493 bytes. This optimization
(25719a33154f0c62ea9881f0c79ae312dd4cec7a, Improve performance a bit
by optimizing away; 2005-11-24) appears to have been worth less than
a 2% speed-up (and usually much less), so the impact of removing it
is negligible.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't exit the loop early.
* tests/cp/proc-short-read: New test, lightly based on a suggestion
from Mike Frysinger, to exercise this fix.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp/proc-short-read.
* NEWS (Improve robustness): Mention this change.

With newer perl (e.g., Fedora 10's 4:5.10.0-68.fc10), tests/CuTmpdir.pm
stopped removing its temporary directories, with diagnostics like this:
cannot remove path when cwd is /c/coreutils/tests/misc/seq.tmp-e2up \
for /c/coreutils/tests/misc/seq.tmp-e2up: at \
/usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0/File/Temp.pm line 902
Chdir out of the target directory before that code runs:
* tests/CuTmpdir.pm (END): chdir '..'.
(chmod_tree): Remove explicit "chdir $dir".
|
|
* tests/install/install-C: Use 2755 (set-gid), not 1755 (sticky),
to test install -C with non-permission mode bits set. At least on
FreeBSD with a UFS file system, a non-root user may not set the
sticky bit on a non-directory.
|
|
* tests/misc/ls-misc (make_j_d): Rename latter $e to $env

Steven Parkes reported that `id -G $USER` went into an infinite loop
on Darwin systems for users in more than 10 groups:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=264007
* gl/lib/mgetgroups.c (mgetgroups): Work around buggy getgrouplist
implementations that don't update the required size correctly,
by doubling the result buffer and retrying. Also return the
parameter updated by getgrouplist rather than its return value,
as the documentation doesn't actually state the number of groups
stored is returned by getgrouplist.
* tests/misc/id-groups: Add test to exercise this logic
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference new test
* NEWS: Mention the fix

Reported by Samuel Thibault and Stéphane Raimbault, as the glibc fr_FR
locale has recently changed to use the official but variable width
abbreviated month names. Other glibc locales also have variable widths.

* NEWS: Mention the fix
* gl/lib/mbsalign.c: A new module to align and truncate a
string in a specified number of screen cells, while handling
multi-byte characters appropriately.
* gl/lib/mbsalign.h: Ditto
* gl/modules/mbsalign: Ditto
* bootstrap.conf: Reference the new module
* src/ls.c (abmon_init): New function, precompute the abbreviated
months aligned left in a minimum width column <= 5 screen cells.
(align_nstrftime): New function, replace the first %b in the
format specification to strftime with the precomputed month string.
Note using the cached month strings speeds up `ls -lU` by around 17%
on glibc-2.7-2 on linux at least. Also if we implement this function
using heap storage rather than automatic storage, and use snprintf
instead of strcpy, ls will slow down by 2% and 1% respectively
(i.e. a net gain of 14% rather than 17%).
* tests/ls/abmon-align: A new test to test ls alignment for
various formats and locales
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test

(AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): New macro, add parallel-test and color-tests.
(TEST_LOGS): Remove.

* tests/other-fs-tmpdir (CANDIDATE_TMP_DIRS): Remove 2nd /usr/tmp.
|

* tests/other-fs-tmpdir (CANDIDATE_TMP_DIRS): Add /dev/shm to the list.
Don't use a line of asterisks as the first line of the "why skipped"
diagnostic, now that that line is printed on 'make check's stderr.
