2013-12-04df: dereference symlinks to disk device nodesPádraig Brady
This is so the matching for the device is done on the canonical name of the disk node, rather than on the path of the symlink. In any case the user will generally want to use the symlink target. * src/df.c (get_disk): Canonicalize the passed file, before matching against the list of mounted file system devices. Note we pass the original symlink name to the "file" output field, as the symlink target is usually available through the "source" field. * tests/df/df-symlink.sh: Test the dereferencing operation. * tests/local.mk: Mention the new test. * NEWS: Mention the fix. Reported by Ondrej Oprala
2013-11-29tests: add a test for rm -r "/"Bernhard Voelker
* tests/rm/r-root.sh: Add a non-root test. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Mention the test.
2013-11-27selinux: adjust utils to run restorecon with -ZPádraig Brady
cp, mv, install, mkdir, mkfifo, mknod are adjusted so that: -Z no longer accepts an argument. -Z or --context without an argument do not warn without SELinux. --context with an argument will warn without SELinux. * src/local.mk: Reference the new selinux module where required. * src/system.h: Make the argument to --context optional. * src/mkdir.c: Likewise. Also handle the SMACK case for --context. Note we currently silently ignore -Z with SMACK. * src/mkfifo.c: Likewise. * src/mknod.c: Likewise. * src/install.c: Likewise. Note install(1) by default already set the context for target files to their system default, albeit with an older method. Use the -Z option to select between the old and new context restoration behavior, and document the differences and details for how context restoration is done in new and old methods, with a view disabling the old method entirely in future. * src/cp.c: Make the argument to --context optional. Note -Z implies --no-preserve=context. I.E. -Z overrides that aspect of -a no matter what order specified. (struct cp_options): Document the context handling options. (main): Check/adjust option combinations after all options are processed, to both simplify processing and to make handling independent of order of options on the command line. Also improve the diagnostics from a failed call to setfscreatecon(). (set_process_security_ctx): A new function, refactored to set the default context from the source file, or with the type adjusted as per the system default for the destination path. (set_file_security_ctx): A new function refactored to set the security context of an existing file, either based on the process context or the default system context for a path. (copy_internal): Use the refactored functions to simplify error handling and consistently fail or warn as needed. (copy_reg): Likewise. (copy_internal): With --preserve=context, also copy context from non regular files. Note for directories this may impact the copying of subsequent files to that directory? (copy_attr): If we're handling SELinux explicitly, then exclude to avoid the redudant copy with --preserve=context, and the problematic copy with -Z. Note SELinux attribute exclusion also now honors cp -a --no-preserve=context. Note there was a very small window over 10 years ago, where attr_copy_file was available, while attr_copy_check_permissions was not, so we don't bother adding an explicit m4 check for the latter function. * src/mv.c: Support --context, but don't allow specifying an argument. * src/chcon.c: Adjust a comment to be specific to SELinux. * src/runcon.c: Likewise. * src/copy.c: Honor the context settings to "restorecon" as appropriate. * src/copy.h: Add a new setting to select "restorecon" functionality. * tests/mkdir/selinux.sh: s/-Z/--context=/ * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux.sh: Augment this test with cases testing basic -Z functionality, and also test the various invalid option combinations and option precedence. * tests/mkdir/restorecon.sh: Add a new test for the more involved mkdir -Z handling, since the directory changing and non existent directories need to be specially handled. Also check the similar but simpler handling of -Z by mk{nod,fifo}. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test. * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Update as per interface changes. (mv invocation): Likewise. (install invocation): Likewise. (mkfifo invocation): Likewise. (mknod invocation): Likewise. (mkdir invocation): Likewise. * NEWS: Mention the new feature and change in behavior.
2013-11-27shred: provide --remove methods to avoid excessive syncingPádraig Brady
A sync operation is very often expensive. For illustration I timed the following python script which indicated that each ext4 dir sync was taking about 2ms and 12ms, on an SSD and traditional disk respectively. import os d=os.open(".", os.O_DIRECTORY|os.O_RDONLY) for i in range(1000): os.fdatasync(d) So syncing for each character for each file can result in significant delays. Often this overhead is redundant, as only the data is sensitive and not the file name. Even if the names are sensitive, your file system may employ synchronous metadata updates, which also makes explicit syncing redundant. * tests/misc/shred-remove.sh: Ensure all the new parameters actually unlink the file. * doc/coreutils.texi (shred invocation): Describe the new parameters to the --remove option. * src/shred.c (Usage): Likewise. (main): Parse the new options. (wipename): Inspect the new enum to see which of the now optional tasks to perform. * NEWS: Mention the new feature. * THANKS.in: Add reporter Joseph D. Wagner
2013-11-27tail: improve inotify handling of symlinksPádraig Brady
Previous behavior failed to read contents of a (re)appearing file, when symlinked by tail's watched file. Also we now diagnose other edge cases when running in inotify mode, where an initially missing or regular file changes to a symlink. * src/tail.c (main): If any arg is a symlink, use polling mode. (recheck): Diagnose the edge case where a symlink appears during inotify processing. * tests/tail-2/symlink.sh: Test the fix. Mention the edge cases. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test. * NEWS: Mention the fix. Reported by: Ondrej Oprala
2013-11-27df: add --output=file to directly output specified argumentsPádraig Brady
* src/df.c (usage): Document the new 'file' --output field. (get_dev): Add a new parameter to pass the specified argument from the command line through. Use '-' if a command line parameter is not being used. * doc/coreutils.texi (df invocation): Describe the new 'file' field. * tests/df/df-output.sh: Adjust all fields test, and add a specific test for --output=file. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
2013-11-27tests: ensure factor tests can be regeneratedPádraig Brady
* tests/local.mk (factor-tests:) Add -f to the mv command that replaces any existing generated tests. This is required to avoid prompts when root initially generates the tests, and they subsequently need to be regenerated by a non root user.
2013-11-22tests: enhance rm test regarding "." and ".."Bernhard Voelker
Recent commit 2da7009d changed the error diagnostic of rm(1) trying to remove "." or "..". Enhance the corresponding test. * tests/rm/r-4.sh: Ensure rm(1) outputs the expected error diagnostic.
2013-11-18tests: fix false rm -I test failure when run as rootPádraig Brady
Fix a recent regression introduced in commit v8.21-127-g5ee7d8f Also related to this is the recent query about root run `rm -I` ignoring the mode bits of a file: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1013171 * tests/rm/interactive-once.sh: Avoid the messages and corresponding file presence checks with write protected files when running as root.
2013-11-17stty: add support for mark/space parityColin Leitner
This adds support for using a constant or "stick" parity bit. * src/stty.c (usage): Mention the new flag. * tests/misc/stty.sh: Adjust for the new flag. * NEWS: Mention the improvement. * docs/coreutils.texi (stty invocation): Mention the new flag.
2013-11-08shred: avoid data write pass with --size=0Pádraig Brady
* src/shred.c (dopass): Exit early to avoid redundant heap allocation, and more importantly avoiding a file sync when we're writting no data, as this can have side effects. Also with --verbose, this avoids printing of "pass status" which could be confusing as to whether data was actually written. * tests/misc/shred-passes.sh: Ensure the status for data passes are not written when not doing any data writes.
2013-11-08shred: fix direct I/O failures for last write to filePádraig Brady
Since direct I/O is now enabled with commit v8.21-139-gebaf961 we must handle the case where we write an odd size at the end of a file (with --exact), or we specify an odd --size that is larger than 64KiB, or in the very unlikely case of a device with an odd size. This issue was present since direct I/O support was first added in v5.3.0, but latent since v6.0. Theoretically this could have also been an issue after that on systems which didn't have alignment constraints, but did have size constraints for direct I/O. * src/shred.c (dopass): On the first pass for a file, always retry a write that fails with EINVAL, so we handle direct I/O failure at either the start or end of the file. Adjust the comment as the original case is out of date and implicitly handled by this more general fix. * tests/misc/shred-exact.sh: Add a test case. * NEWS: Add a "bug fix" entry for shred since there are two related issues now fixed.
2013-11-07cp: fix --link regarding the dereferencing of symbolic linksGian Piero Carrubba
* src/copy.c (create_hard_link): Add a bool 'dereference' parameter, and pass AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW as 'flags' to linkat() when dereference is true. (should_dereference): Add new 'bool' function to determine if a file should be dereferenced or not. (copy_internal): Use the above new should_dereference() and remember its return value in a new local bool 'dereference' variable. Use that in all three calls to create_hard_link(). * src/cp.c (main): after parsing the options, if x.dereference is still DEFEF_UNDEFINED and the x.recursive is true, then only set x.dereference to DEREF_NEVER iff --link was not specified. * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Mention that cp(1) does not follow symbolic links in the source when --link is specified. Likewise in the description of the -R option when used together with that option. * tests/cp/same-file.sh: Adapt the expected results for the -fl, the -bl and the -bfl tests. * tests/cp/link-deref.sh: Add a new test. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Reference the above new test. * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the change. This fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/15173 Co-authored-by: Bernhard Voelker <mail@bernhard-voelker.de>
2013-11-01maint: simplify printing of md5sum file namesPádraig Brady
* src/md5sum.c (main): Add a comment as to why we continue to escape names that do not have '\n' but do have '\\' chars. (print_filename): Use the predetermined boolean to decide whether to escape or not, so that in the common case we can output the file name directly, rather than inspecting each char. * tests/misc/md5sum.pl: Add case to show '\\' chars cause escaping. * tests/misc/sha1sum.pl: Likewise.
2013-10-06mktemp: with --quiet, only suppress I/O errorsPádraig Brady
The reason for having a --quiet option is to suppress only some subset of possible errors. The most useful separation here is with usage/internal errors, and errors due to file creation etc. (i.e. I/O errors). * src/mktemp.c (main): Match the --help and info docs and only suppress the file/dir creation error messages. * tests/misc/mktemp.pl: Adjust accordingly.
2013-09-26rm: with -I, prompt before deleting a write protected fileSergio Durigan Junior
This regression was introduced in commit v6.7-71-g0928c24 * src/rm.c (main): Make the -I option behave like --interactive=once. * tests/rm/interactive-once.sh: Add cases for single and multiple files. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/9308
2013-09-22maint: move all id(1) tests to the same directoryPádraig Brady
* tests/misc/id-context.sh -> tests/id/context.sh * tests/misc/id-setgid.sh -> tests/id/setgid.sh * tests/misc/id-uid.sh -> tests/id/uid.sh * tests/misc/id-zero.sh -> tests/id/zero.sh * tests/local.mk: Reference the renamed tests
2013-09-22tests: parameterize the "root" usernamePádraig Brady
* tests/misc/chroot-credentials.sh: Don't assume uid 0 has the "root" name, nor any name for that matter.
2013-09-22id: support specifying the user by user IDPádraig Brady
* src/id.c (usage): Remove 'name' from the synopsis, implying that one can also specify by user ID. (main): Like chown(1), call parse_user_spec() to implement user name or ID lookup with appropriate precedence. * doc/coreutils.texi (id invocation): Mention that a user ID is supported and how '+' affects lookup order. * tests/misc/id-groups.sh: Remove test now subsumed into... * tests/misc/id-uid.sh: New test covering new interface. * tests/local.mk: Rename the test. * NEWS: Mention the new feature. Addresses http://bugs.gnu.org/15421
2013-09-22tests: avoid a failure when there isn't a name for all user IDsPádraig Brady
* tests/misc/id-zero.sh: Don't check exit status when in -n mode. Prompted by the continuous integration build failure at: http://hydra.nixos.org/build/6196762
2013-09-21id: add -z, --zero optionBernhard Voelker
* src/group-list.h (print_group_list): Add a parameter for the delimiter of type char. * src/group-list.c (print_group_list): Likewise, and use it instead of a white space character to delimit the group entries. * src/groups.c (main): Pass white space character to print_group_list(). * src/id.c (longopts): Add array element for the new long option. (usage): Document the new option. While at it, fix the alignment of the descriptions to match that of HELP_OPTION_DESCRIPTION. (main): Define the bool flag opt_zero indicating the use of the new option. In the getopt_long loop, handle it. Output an error diagnostic in the case the --zero option has been specified together with the default format. In the case of -gG, pass either a NUL or a white space character to print_group_list() - depending on the above new flag. Likewise change the printing of the final newline character: output a NUL instead if the --zero option has been specified. * doc/coreutils.texi (id invocation): Document the new option. While at it, move the @exitstatus macro down after the macro @primaryAndSupplementaryGroups in order to be consistent with other texinfo documents. (groups invocation): Move @exitstatus down after the macro @primaryAndSupplementaryGroups here, too. * tests/misc/id-zero.sh: Add new test exercising the new option. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Reference it. * NEWS (New features): Mention the new option. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/9987
2013-08-02maint: update copyright year number ranges of numfmt sourcesBernhard Voelker
Run "make update-copyright". * src/numfmt.c: Update copyright year number range. This file has obviously been added to coreutils after and without the annual update. * tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Likewise.
2013-07-29tests: fix another test failure in test/du/inodes.shBernhard Voelker
Prompted by the continuous integration build failure at: http://hydra.nixos.org/build/5584121 du(1) uses the first file object of the two test files linked to the same inode, 'd/f' and 'd/h', whatever the system returns first. Use 'd/f' in both the expected and the actual output. * test/du/inodes.sh: Change the expected output as described above when returning the --all directory entries (without -l). Also replace the name of the hardlink 'd/h' by 'd/f' in the actual output.
2013-07-28maint: cleanup compare calls in test/du/inodes.shBernhard Voelker
* test/du/inodes.sh: In the cases where compare() fails, that function would show the unified diff automatically. Therefore, remove the excess "cat out". In the cases where expecting an empty file, use compare() again rather than the simpler "test -s" because possible error reports will then include the file's content for the same reason as above.
2013-07-28tests: fix intermittent failure in test/du/inodes.shPádraig Brady
Prompted by the continuous integration build failure at: http://hydra.nixos.org/build/5582213 * test/du/inodes.sh: Due to undefined order in returned directory entries, the expected output might not match, so sort both expected and actual output when returning --all directory entries. Also use a simpler test for ensuring no errors are output.
2013-07-27du: add --inodes optionBernhard Voelker
This new option can be used to find directories with a huge amount of files. The GNU find utility has the printf format "%h" which prints the number of entries in a directory, but this is non-cumulative and doesn't handle hard links. * src/du.c (struct duinfo): Add new member for counting inodes. (duinfo_init): Initialize inodes member with Zero. (duinfo_set): Set inodes counter to 1. (duinfo_add): Sum up the 2 given inodes counters. (opt_inodes): Add new boolean flag to remember if the --inodes option has been specified. (INODES_OPTION): Add new enum value to be used ... (long_options): ... here. (usage): Add description of the new option. (print_size): Pass inodes counter or size to print_only_size, depending on the inodes mode. (process_file): Adapt threshold handling: with --inodes, print or elide the entries according to the struct member inodes. (main): Add a case for accepting the new INODES_OPTION. Print a warning diagnostic when --inodes is used together with the option --apparent-size or -b. Reset the output_block_size to 1 ... and thus ignoring the options -m and -k. * tests/du/inodes.sh: Add a new test. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Mention it. * doc/coreutils.texi (du invocation): Document the new option. * NEWS: Mention the new option.
2013-07-25mv: replace empty directories in cross file system moveKen Booth
src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use rmdir() rather than unlink() when the source is a directory, so that empty directories are replaced in the destination as per POSIX. * tests/mv/part-rename.sh: Augment with various combinations. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/14763
2013-07-22maint: make some shell and perl scripts executable in 'tests/'Bernhard Voelker
Some newer test scripts - partially ones from me - are not executable. It does not seem to be a problem, but for consistency and to avoid future problems on unusual platforms or shells change the permissions by adding the executable bit. * cfg.mk (sc_tests_executable): Add new syntax-check rule to ensure that all test scripts are executable. * tests/df/df-output.sh: Change file mode from 644 to 755. * tests/du/threshold.sh: Likewise. * tests/factor/run.sh: Likewise. * tests/init.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/csplit-suppress-matched.pl: Likewise. * tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/retry.sh: Likewise.
2013-07-19rm: output number of arguments at the interactive promptRasmus Villemoes
Include the number of arguments which rm received in the "Remove all arguments?" prompt. This is useful in the, presumably, common case where the arguments were not provided by hand, but instead were the result of various shell expansions. A simple, if somewhat contrived, example (assuming rm is aliased to rm -I) could be: rm * .o where the prompt "Remove 120 arguments?" is more likely to make the user catch the problem. * src/rm.c (main): Include correctly pluralized n_files in the output message. Also remove the now redudant "all". * tests/rm/interactive-always.sh: Adjust to the new prompt. * tests/rm/interactive-once.sh: Likewise.
2013-07-19dd: make status=none suppress all diagnosticsPádraig Brady
* src/dd.c (STATUS_NONE): Simplify the enum so that it's more general than just suppressing transfer counts. Then test this in all locations where non fatal diagnostics are output. * tests/dd/misc.sh: Ensure the diagnostic about being unable to skip past the end of input is suppressed. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/14897
2013-07-11shuf: add --repetition to support repetition in outputAssaf Gordon
main(): Process new option. Replace input_numbers_option_used() with a local variable. Re-organize argument processing. usage(): Describe the new option. (write_random_numbers): A new function to generate a permutation of the specified input range with repetition. (write_random_lines): Likewise for stdin and --echo. (write_permuted_numbers): New function refactored from write_permuted_output(). (write_permuted_lines): Likewise. * tests/misc/shuf.sh: Add tests for --repetitions option. * doc/coreutils.texi: Mention --repetitions, add examples. * TODO: Mention an optimization to avoid needing to read all of the input into memory with --repetitions. * NEWS: Mention new shuf option.
2013-07-11tests: add more tests for shuf option combinationsAssaf Gordon
* test/misc/shuf.sh: Add tests for erroneous conditions like multiple '-o' and '--random-source'.
2013-07-09df: fix mount list processing with unstatable mount dirsPádraig Brady
* src/df.c (filter_mount_list): Initialize devlist->dev_num correctly when unable to stat() a mount point. This will avoid possible invalid deduplication done on the list due to use of uninitialized memory. * tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Ensure this code path is exercised. Also refactor the test to be table driven. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
2013-07-05tests: fix "shuf unreadable" test to work when run as rootPádraig Brady
* tests/misc/shuf.sh: Restrict the test to the significant case where we can't in fact read the "unreadable" file.
2013-06-22stdbuf: make it mandatory to specify a buffering optionPádraig Brady
This is consistent with the documented interface and avoids any ambiguity in a user thinking that stdbuf without options might reset to a "standard" buffering setup. * src/stdbuf.c (set_libstdbuf_options): Indicate with the return value whether any env variables were actually set. (main): Fail unless some env variables were set. * tests/misc/stdbuf.sh: Ensure this constraint is enforced. * NEWS: Mention the small change in behavior.
2013-06-03tests: avoid a race in tail --retry testingPádraig Brady
Prompted by the continuous integration build failure at: http://hydra.nixos.org/build/5221053 * tests/tail-2/retry.sh: Ensure the 'out' file is truncated, as it's used to arbitrate the run order of commands. Relying on the truncation in the background tail command is racy because the truncation can occur after the fork of the background shell and thus wait4lines would not wait for output to occur in 'out', which would mean that the 'missing' file could be populated by the time tail(1) gets to process it.
2013-06-02od: -wN, N>64K, avoid misbehavior on systems with 32-bit size_tJim Meyering
* src/od.c (PRINT_FIELDS): Declare "i" to be of type uintmax_t, so that the numerator in the expression for "next_pad" does not overflow. (print_named_ascii): Likewise. (print_ascii): Likewise. Bug introduced via commit v6.12-42-g20c0b87. * tests/misc/od.pl: Exercise each of the three affected code paths. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Reported by Rich Burridge.
2013-06-01tests: head-c: avoid spurious failure with a 32-bit size_tJim Meyering
* tests/misc/head-c.sh: Don't try to elide 1 exabytes, since on 32-bit systems, that number is not representable as a size_t. This command would fail on 32-bit systems, where SIZE_MAX < 1E: head --bytes=-E < /dev/null Instead of "E", use $SSIZE_MAX. For discussion, see http://bugs.gnu.org/13530
2013-05-27tests: avoid spurious failure when SIZE_MAX is 2^32-1Jim Meyering
* tests/split/line-bytes.sh: Since we've limited virtual memory to 20MB, choose a smaller size, 1GiB (which is <= SIZE_MAX) rather than 1EiB, which is larger than SIZE_MAX on 32-bit systems. I confirmed that this test still fails when the split.c-modifying part of v8.21-58-gfec363c is backed out.
2013-05-26tests: fix an ls test not to fail when user or group name contains SPJim Meyering
* tests/ls/block-size.sh (size_etc): The sed expression through which we filtered the output of "ls -l ..." assumed that the user and group name components of each line would not contain spaces. Avoid the problem by using -og instead of -l, thus not printing either of those fields. Adjust the sed expression accordingly.
2013-05-27tests: numfmt: use the printf program, not the shell builtinStefano Lattarini
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Avoid a spurious failure when /bin/sh is dash (as can happen on Debian systems).
2013-05-23split: with --line-bytes only allocate memory as neededPádraig Brady
* src/split.c (line_bytes_split): Rewrite to only buffer when necessary. I.E. only increase the buffer when we've already lines output in a split and we encounter a line larger than the input buffer size, in which case a hold buffer will be increased in increments of the input buffer size. (lines_rr): Use the more abstract xalloc_die() just like we did in line_bytes_split(), rather than explicitly printing the "memory exhausted" message and exiting. * tests/split/line-bytes.sh: Add a new test for this function which previously had no test coverage. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test. * NEWS: Mention the improvement. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/13537
2013-05-18tests: don't assume expr was built with GMPPaul Eggert
* tests/misc/cut-huge-range.sh (subtract_one): New string. (CUT_MAX): Don't pass a too-large integer to 'expr'.
2013-05-11mkdir: don't assume umask equals POSIX default ACL maskPaul Eggert
This fixes Bug#14371, reported by Killer Bassist. * NEWS: Document this. * src/mkdir.c (struct mkdir_options): Remove member ancestor_mode. New member umask_value. All uses changed. * src/mkdir.c (make_ancestor): Fix umask assumption. * src/mkdir.c, src/mkfifo.c, src/mknod.c (main): Leave umask alone. This requires invoking lchmod after creating the file, which introduces a race condition, but this can't be avoided on hosts with "POSIX" default ACLs, and there's no easy way with network file systems to tell what kind of host the directory is on. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add tests/mkdir/p-acl.sh. * tests/mkdir/p-acl.sh: New file.
2013-05-08cut: improve performance, especially with --output-delimiterCojocaru Alexandru
Use a sentinel value that's checked implicitly, rather than a bit array, to determine if an item should be output. Benchmark results for this change are: $ yes abcdfeg | head -n1MB > big-file $ for c in orig sentinel; do src/cut-$c 2>/dev/null echo -ne "\n== $c ==" time src/cut-$c -b1,3 big-file > /dev/null done == orig == real 0m0.049s user 0m0.044s sys 0m0.005s == sentinel == real 0m0.035s user 0m0.032s sys 0m0.002s ## Again with --output-delimiter ## $ for c in orig sentinel; do src/cut-$c 2>/dev/null echo -ne "\n== $c ==" time src/cut-$c -b1,3 --output-delimiter=: big-file > /dev/null done == orig == real 0m0.106s user 0m0.103s sys 0m0.002s == sentinel == real 0m0.055s user 0m0.052s sys 0m0.003s eol_range_start: Removed. 'n-' is no longer treated specially, and instead SIZE_MAX is set for the 'hi' limit, and tested implicitly. complement_rp: Used to complement 'rp' when '--complement' is specified. ADD_RANGE_PAIR: Macro renamed to 'add_range_pair' function. * tests/misc/cut-huge-range.sh: Adjust to the SENTINEL value. Also remove the overlapping range test as this is no longer dependent on large ranges and also is already handled with the EOL-subsumed-3 test in cut.pl.
2013-05-07cut: fix handling of overlapping rangesCojocaru Alexandru
This issue was introduced in commit v8.21-43-g3e466ad * src/cut.c (set_fields): Process all range pairs when merging. * tests/misc/cut-huge-range.sh: Add a test for this edge case. Also fix an issue where we could miss reported errors due to truncation of the 'err' file.
2013-04-29cut: reduce CPU overhead in determining item to outputCojocaru Alexandru
print_kth() is the central function of cut used to determine if an item is to be output or not, so simplify it by moving some logic outside. Benchmark results for this change are: $ yes abcdfeg | head -n1MB > big-file $ for c in orig split; do src/cut-$c 2>/dev/null echo -ne "\n== $c ==" time src/cut-$c -b1,3 big-file > /dev/null done == orig == real 0m0.111s user 0m0.108s sys 0m0.002s == split == real 0m0.088s user 0m0.081s sys 0m0.007s * src/cut.c (print_kth): Refactor a branch to outside the function.

2013-04-29cut: make memory allocation independent of range widthCojocaru Alexandru
The current implementation of cut, uses a bit array, an array of `struct range_pair's, and (when --output-delimiter is specified) a hash_table. The new implementation will use only an array of `struct range_pair's. The old implementation is memory inefficient because: 1. When -b with a big num is specified, it allocates a lot of memory for `printable_field'. 2. When --output-delimiter is specified, it will allocate 31 buckets. Even if only a few ranges are specified. Note CPU overhead is increased to determine if an item is to be printed, as shown by: $ yes abcdfeg | head -n1MB > big-file $ for c in with-bitarray without-bitarray; do src/cut-$c 2>/dev/null echo -ne "\n== $c ==" time src/cut-$c -b1,3 big-file > /dev/null done == with-bitarray == real 0m0.084s user 0m0.078s sys 0m0.006s == without-bitarray == real 0m0.111s user 0m0.108s sys 0m0.002s Subsequent patches will reduce this overhead. * src/cut.c (set_fields): Set and initialize RP instead of printable_field. * src/cut.c (is_range_start_index): Use CURRENT_RP rather than a hash. * tests/misc/cut.pl: Check if `eol_range_start' is set correctly. * tests/misc/cut-huge-range.sh: Rename from cut-huge-to-eol-range.sh, and add a test to verify large amounts of mem aren't allocated.

2013-04-25tests: fix usage of require_ulimit_Pádraig Brady
* init.cfg (require_ulimit_v_): Renamed from require_ulimit_ as this only checks for ulimit -v support. Other uses of ulimit -t and ulimit -n in tests shouldn't cause false failures if not supported. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_ulimit_without_require_): A new syntax check to ensure that require_ulimit_v_() is used iff required. * tests/misc/head-c.sh: Add missing call to require_ulimit_v_. * tests/rm/many-dir-entries-vs-OOM.sh: Likewise. * tests/split/r-chunk.sh: Remove non mandatory require_ulimit_ call. * tests/misc/sort-merge-fdlimit.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/link-heap.sh: Adjust to renamed require_ulimit_v_. * tests/dd/no-allocate.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/csplit-heap.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/cut-huge-to-eol-range.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/printf-surprise.sh: Likewise.
2013-04-20tail: exit following by descriptor when no tailable file leftBernhard Voelker
As a side effect of the previous commit which fixes 'tail -f --retry' to wait for a file to appear, tail would not exit when the last file appears untailable and gives up on this file. This can happen, for example, when the argument file name appears as directory. Tail sets the 'ignore' flag of this file to true, but instead of exiting the program, tail would continue the loop. * src/tail.c (any_live_files): Change the function to return true if any of the files is still tailable or if tail should continue to try to check again. (tail_forever): Change the condition to break the loop in the "no files remaining" case, because now any_live_files() will care about it, as mentioned above. (parse_options): When --retry is used without any follow mode, then reset reopen_inaccessible_files to false. * tests/tail-2/retry.sh: Add test case.
