Since non interactive shells don't generally set $SHELL,
its value is propagated through the tests and may cause issues;
for example if $SHELL implicitly adjusts $PATH when run.
Instead we set $SHELL to that determined by the posix-shell module,
and use that consistently for all test sub scripts,
including those created thorugh the `split --filter` command.
* tests/local.mk: Explicitly set $SHELL to $(PREFERABLY_POSIX_SHELL)
which defaults to $CONFIG_SHELL and thus usually /bin/sh.
* tests/envvar-check: Remove bash environment variables with
side effects, in case /bin/bash was selected for $SHELL.
* tests/misc/help-version.sh: Remove redundant initialization of $SHELL.
* tests/install/strip-program.sh: Use $SHELL for sub script.
* tests/misc/sort-compress-hang.sh: Likewise.
* tests/misc/sort-compress-proc.sh: Likewise.
* tests/misc/sort-compress.sh: Likewise.
* tests/misc/timeout-group.sh: Likewise.
* tests/rm/fail-eperm.xpl: Remove redundant elision of bash env vars.
* tests/misc/pwd-long.sh: Likewise.

* tests/du/threshold.sh: Homogenize getopt error messages.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Likewise.
* tests/mv/i-3.sh: Skip on *BSD not just FreeBSD.
|

* tests/misc/stty.sh: FreeBSD returns ENOTTY for
the TIOCEXT ioctl, so just avoid this option for now.
|
|
* tests/dd/stats.sh: Wait 20s for dd to write 250MB through a fifo,
rather than 10s for 500MB. The failure was seen often on
a lightly loaded SPARC-Enterprise-T5220 running Solaris 10.

* tests/misc/sync.sh: Ensure dir is unreadable before
including the permission check.

The LD_PRELOAD checks by -fsanitize=address are overly strict:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/address-sanitizer/jEvOJgkDqQk
A workaround is to first export LD_PRELOAD=libasan.so.2
The tests below are adjusted so that workaround is not discarded.
* tests/cp/no-ctx.sh: Append to $LD_PRELOAD.

* tests/ls/getxattr-speedup.sh: Likewise.
* tests/rm/r-root.sh: Likewise.
* tests/cp/nfs-removal-race.sh: Likewise. Also check that
LD_PRELOAD is effective to aid future maintainability
and avoid false failure if libasan.so.2 is not preloaded.

src/seq.c (scan_arg): Set precision and width _after_ exponentiation.
For example, this will make '1.1e1 12' and '11 1.2e1' equivalent.
One can still set the precision by specifying extra precision on
the start value, or more naturally with a precision on a step value.
* tests/misc/seq-precision.sh: Add new cases.
|
|
* src/seq.c (scan_arg): Set precision to 0 for hex constants
(while avoiding hex floats). This will use then use the
fast path for these arguments. Note we also set the precision
of inf to 0 here, which ensures we use consistent precision
on output where possible.
* tests/misc/seq-precision.sh: Add corresponding test cases.
|
|
* src/seq.c (main): Call seq_fast for infinite last value.
This implicitly avoids format conversion on the
999999 -> 1000000 transition.
* src/seq.c (seq_fast): Generalize the buffer handling,
and adjust to handle the "inf" last value specifics.
* tests/misc/seq-precision.sh: A new test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.

* src/numfmt.c (MAX_UNSCALED_DIGITS): Set this to LDBL_DIG
rather than hardcoding at 18 for better portability.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Restrict limit tests to supported platforms.
|

* src/numfmt.c (simple_strtod_int): Don't count leading zeros
as significant digits. Also have leading zeros as optional
for floating point numbers.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Add test cases.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
|
|
Due to existing limits this is usually triggered
with an increased precision. We also add further
restrictions to the output of increased precision numbers.
* src/numfmt.c (simple_round): Avoid intmax_t overflow.
(simple_strtod_int): Count digits consistently
for precision loss and overflow detection.
(prepare_padded_number): Include the precision
when excluding numbers to output, since the precision
determines the ultimate values used in the rounding scheme
in double_to_human().
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Add previously failing test cases.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
|
|
* src/numfmt.c (usage): Update the --format description
to indicate precision is allowed.
(parse_format_string): Parse a precision specification
like the standard printf does.
(double_to_human): Honor the precision in --to mode.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: New tests.
* doc/coreutils.texi (numfmt invocation): Mention the new feature.
* NEWS: Likewise.

* src/numfmt.c: Replace field handling code with logic that understands
field range specifiers. Instead of processing a single field and
printing line prefix/suffix around it, process each field in the line
checking whether it has been included for conversion. If so convert and
print, otherwise just print the unaltered field.
(extract_fields): Removed.
(skip_fields): Removed.
(process_line): Gutted and heavily reworked.
(process_suffixed_number): FIELD is now passed as an arg instead of
using a global.
(parse_field_arg): New function that parses field range specifiers.
(next_field): New function that returns pointers to the next field in
a line.
(process_field): New function that wraps the field conversion logic
(include_field): New function that checks whether a field should be
converted
(compare_field): New function used for field value comparisons in a
gl_list.
(free_field): New function used for freeing field values in a gl_list.
Global variable FIELD removed.
New global variable all_fields indicates whether all fields should be
processed.
New global variable all_fields_after stores the first field of a N-
style range.
New global variable all_fields_before stores the last field of a -M
style range.
New global variable field_list stores explicitly specified fields to
process (N N,M or N-M style specifiers).
(usage): Document newly supported field range specifiers.
* bootstrap.conf: Include xlist and linked-list modules. numfmt now
uses the gl_linked_list implementation to store the field ranges.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Add tests for 'cut style' field ranges.
Adjust existing tests as partial output can occur before an error
Remove test for the 'invalid' field -5.. this is now a valid range.
* gnulib: update to avoid compiler warnings in linked-list.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
|

* src/numfmt.c (unit_to_umax): Support SI (power of 10) suffixes
with the --from-unit and --to-unit options. Treat suffixes like
is done with --from=auto, which for example will change the meaning
of --to-unit=G to that of --to-unit=Gi. The suffix support was
previously undocumented and it's better to avoid the traditional
coreutils suffix handling in numfmt by default.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Document the new behavior. Also fix a typo
mentioning {from,to}=units=.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Adjust accordingly.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

* src/tail.c (recheck): Display diagnostices for replaced files
even with reused inodes which is a common case.
* tests/tail-2/F-vs-missing.sh: Use correct diagnostic in comment.
* tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename.sh: Likewise.
|
|
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Use the fspec pointer to
distinguish previously output files, rather than a descriptor
from the inotify event. That event descriptor was that of
the parent directory when files were created or renamed etc.
(check_fspec): Adjust for the new comparison. Also show the
header when the file is truncated, since we show data
in this case also.
* tests/tail-2/F-headers.sh: A new test case.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
|
|
* configure.ac: Comment on why we link rather than run the test,
and remove the moot __ELF__ check since we never ran it anyway,
and the new CFLAGS and LDFLAGS are a more direct test of support.
* tests/misc/wc-parallel.sh: Fix a syntax error in the previous change.
* tests/misc/md5sum-parallel.sh: Use better error checking, consistent
with that used in wc-parallel.sh.

Problems reported by Michael Felt, and and part of this fix taken
from code suggested by Pádraig Brady in:
http://bugs.gnu.org/20733#112
* configure.ac (stdbuf_supported): Check for warnings, and
for -fPIC and -shared, for AIX.
* src/stat.c (STRUCT_STATVFS): Define to struct statvfs64 if
STATFS is statvfs64.
* src/sync.c (sync_arg) [_AIX]: Open in write mode,
since AIX fsync doesn't work on read-only file descriptors.
* tests/misc/wc-parallel.sh: Skip test if xargs -P does not work.
|
|
* tests/tail-2/wait.sh: Without inotify, skip a portion of the test
that checks that -F never outputs from a tailed descriptor
after the followed name is recreated, because tail_forever()
doesn't guarantee that.
Noticed at http://hydra.nixos.org/build/22766288
|
|
* tests/misc/uniq-perf.sh: Use our standard 10s timeout,
which is sufficient to trigger the failure and also
avoids a false failure on slow/loaded systems.
Noticed at http://hydra.nixos.org/build/22766288
|
|
* tests/ln/hard-to-sym.sh: Only call framework_failure_ when ln
returns success.
|
|
* src/copy.c (CAN_HARDLINK_SYMLINKS): Don't enable use of linkat()
on Darwin 14, as the gnulib fallback emulation there doesn't
preserve ownership and timestamps etc. This fixes a test failure
in tests/cp/link-symlink.sh
* tests/cp/link-deref.sh: Adjust accordingly.
|
|
When the parent directory exists and has a different
default context to the final directory, the context
was incorrectly left as that of the parent directory.
* src/mkdir.c (process_dir): Because defaultcon() is called for
existing ancestors (as it must be to avoid races), then we must
unconditionally call restorecon() on the last component due to
the already documented caveat with make_dir_parents().
Alternatively you could temp disable o->set_security_context
around make_dir_parents(), but that would be subject to races.
* tests (tests/mkdir/restorecon.sh): Add a TODO for improvement.
Reference mknod and mkfifo with print_ver_.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.

Supporting `split --numeric-suffixes=1 -n100` for example.
* doc/coreutils.texi (split invocation): Mention the two
use cases for the FROM parameter, and the consequences on
the suffix length determination.
* src/split.c (set_suffix_length): Use the --numeric-suffixes
FROM parameter in the suffix width calculation, when it's
less than the number of files specified in --number.

Generally if logs are truncated, they're truncated to 0 length,
so output all existing data when our heuristic determines truncation.
Note with inotify, truncate() and write() are often determined
independently and so all data would be written if that was the case.
* src/tail.c (check_fspec): Reset file offset to 0 upon truncation.
(tail_forever): Likewise.
(recheck): Add a FIXME for the related issue where tail may lose
data due to tail discounting older log files too early.
* tests/tail-2/truncate.sh: A new test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

The previous fixes to races in the various tail tests,
identified actual races in the tail inotify implementation.
With --follow=descriptor, if the tailed file was replaced before
the inotify watch was added, then any subsequent changes were ignored.
Similarly in --follow=name mode, all changes to a new name were
effectively ignored if that name was created after the original open()
but before the inotify_add_watch().
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Fix 3 cases.
1. With -f, don't stop tailing when file removed before watch.
2. With -f, watch right file when file replaced before watch.
3. With -F, inspect correct file when replaced before watch.
Existing tests identify these when tail compiled with TAIL_TEST_SLEEP.
* tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate-resources.sh:
This test also identifies the issue with --follow=name
when TAIL_TEST_SLEEP is used. Adjust so the test is immune
to such races, and also fail quicker on remote file systems.
* tests/tail-2/inotify-race2.sh: A new test using GDB,
based on inotify-race.sh, which tests the -F race
without needed recompilation with sleeps.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the bug.

|
|
* tests/tail-2/inotify-race.sh: Add a `wait` to ensure that
we reap all background gdb and tail processes. That resulted
in the test hanging intermittently and upon investigation was
due to gdb intermittently failing to terminate the child process
due to receiving a SIGCONT signal. Therefore we avoid using
timeout(1) which sends that signal, and instead rely on tail's
inbuilt --pid monitoring on a background sleep process.
Given this new implementation, the VERY_EXPENSIVE guard was removed.

* tests/tail-2/F-vs-missing.sh: Use standard "fastpoll" options
(-s.1 --max-unchanged-stats=1) to speedup the non-inotify case.
Add the non-inotify case to the test. `wait` on the background
tail process to terminate which should avoid the need for the
non standard `retry_delay_ cleanup ...` on NFS.
* tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename.sh: Remove 'out' at the start of the loop,
to avoid a race in checking its contents. Also ensure 'a' & 'b'
files are present before the tail process starts. Use the standard
"fastpoll" options as above.
* tests/tail-2/f-vs-rename.sh: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/append-only.sh: Use more standard variable names.
* tests/tail-2/flush-initial.sh: Use "fastpoll" options for

stray processes and file cleanup issues on NFS.
* tests/tail-2/inotify-hash-abuse.sh: Always run non-inotify case.
Use "fastpoll" options. Use a more standard retry_delay_ instead

-F never follows a renamed file.
* tests/tail-2/infloop-1.sh: Remove invalid test. tail(1) was not
being passed the --pid=$yes_pid option, retry_delay_ wasn't used
to avoid races, and yes could write huge files before being killed.
* tests/local.mk: Remove the invalid test reference.

no longer hardcoding large delays, remove the VERY_EXPENSIVE tag.

yes(1) may be used to generate repeating patterns of text
for test inputs etc., so adjust to be more efficient.
Profiling the case where yes(1) is outputting small items
through stdio (which was the default case), shows the overhead
of continuously processing small items in main() and in stdio:
$ yes >/dev/null & perf top -p $!
31.02% yes [.] main
27.36% libc-2.20.so [.] _IO_file_xsputn@@GLIBC_2.2.5
14.51% libc-2.20.so [.] fputs_unlocked
13.50% libc-2.20.so [.] strlen
10.66% libc-2.20.so [.] __GI___mempcpy
1.98% yes [.] fputs_unlocked@plta
Sending more data per stdio call improves the situation,
but still, there is significant stdio overhead due to memory copies,
and the repeated string length checking:
$ yes "`echo {1..1000}`" >/dev/null & perf top -p $!
42.26% libc-2.20.so [.] __GI___mempcpy
17.38% libc-2.20.so [.] strlen
5.21% [kernel] [k] __srcu_read_lock

2.01% [kernel] [k] fsnotify
1.95% libc-2.20.so [.] _IO_file_write@@GLIBC_2.2.5
1.44% yes [.] main
We can avoid all stdio overhead by building up the buffer
_once_ and outputting that, and the profile below shows
the bottleneck moved to the kernel:
$ src/yes >/dev/null & perf top -p $!
15.42% [kernel] [k] __srcu_read_lock
12.98% [kernel] [k] __srcu_read_unlock

2.13% [kernel] [k] sysret_check
0.81% [kernel] [k] write_null
0.36% yes [.] write@plt
Note this change also ensures that yes(1) will only write
complete lines for lines shorter than BUFSIZ.
* src/yes.c (main): Build up a BUFSIZ buffer of lines,
and output that, rather than having stdio process each item.
* tests/misc/yes.sh: Add a new test for various buffer sizes.

tee is very often used with pipes and this gives better control
when writing to them. There are 3 classes of file descriptors
that tee can write to: files(1), pipes(2), and early close pipes(3).
Handling write errors to 1 & 2 is supported at present with the caveat
that failure writing to any pipe will terminate tee immediately.
Handling write errors to type 3 is not currently supported.
To improve the supported combinations we add these options:
--write-error=warn
Warn if error writing any output including pipes.
Allows continued writing to still open files/pipes.
Exit status is failure if any output had error.
--write-error=warn-nopipe, -p
Warn if error writing any output except pipes.
Allows continued writing to still open files/pipes.
Exit status is failure if any non pipe output had error.
--write-error=exit
Exit if error writing any output including pipes.
--write-error=exit-nopipe
Exit if error writing any output except pipes.
Use the "nopipe" variants when files are of types 1 and 3, otherwise
use the standard variants with types 1 and 2. A caveat with the above
scheme is that a combination of pipe types (2 & 3) is not supported
robustly. I.e. if you use the "nopipe" variants when using both type
2 and 3 pipes, then any "real" errors on type 2 pipes will not be
diagnosed.
Note also a general issue with type 3 pipes that are not on tee's
stdout, is that shell constructs don't allow to distinguish early
close from real failures. For example `tee >(head -n1) | grep -m1 ..`
can't distinguish between an error or an early close in "head" pipe,
while the fail on the grep part of the pipe is distinguished
independently from the resulting pipe errors. This is a general
issue with the >() construct, rather than with tee itself.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* doc/coreutils.texi (tee invocation): Describe the new option.
* src/tee.c (usage): Likewise.
(main): With --write-error ignore SIGPIPE, and handle
the various exit, diagnostics combinations.
* tests/misc/tee.sh: Tess all the new options.

Since v5.2.1-1247-g8dafbe5, tee(1) treated '-' as stdout while POSIX
explicitly requires to treat this as a file name. Revert this change,
as the interleaved output - due to sending another copy of input to
stdout - is not considered to be useful. Discussed in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2015-02/msg00085.html
* src/tee.c (tee_files): Remove the special handling for "-" operands.
(usage): Remove the corresponding sentence.
* doc/coreutils.texi (common options): Remove the "tee -" example.
(tee invocation): Document that tee(1) now treats "-" as a file name.
* tests/misc/tee.sh: Add a test case for "tee -".
While at it, re-indent the above multi-argument processing case and
extend that to 13 operands, as POSIX mandates that, too.
* tests/misc/tee-dash.sh: Remove now-obsolete test.
* tests/local.mk (all_tests): Remove the above test.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the change.

* src/tee.c (main): Don't continue reading if we can't
output anywhere.
* tests/misc/tee.sh: Ensure we exit when no more outputs.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
|
|
* tests/init.sh (returns_): Disable tracing for this wrapper
function, so that stderr of the wrapped command is unchanged,
allowing for verification of the contents.

Each user has a maximum number of inotify watches,
so handle the cases where we exhaust these resources.
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Ensure we inotify_rm_watch()
the watch for an inode, when replacing with a new watch for a name.
Return all used inotify resources when reverting to polling.
Revert to polling upon first indication of inotify resource exhaustion.
Revert to polling on any inotify resource exhaustion.
Diagnose resource exhaustion correctly in all cases.
Avoid redundant reinsertion in the hash for unchanged watches
(where only attributes of the file are changed).
* tests/tail-2/retry.sh: Avoid false failure when reverting to polling.
* tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate.sh: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/symlink.sh: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate-resources.sh: New test to check
that we're calling inotify_rm_watch() for replaced files.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* THANKS.in: Thanks for reporting and problem identification.

* tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate.sh (cleanup_fail_): Set fail=1
so that failures are identified. Regression in v8.23-63-g111a2b9
Also use print_ver_ rather than open coding --verbose support.
Also check for more than a single 'b' which seems brittle.
