* src/copy.c (overwrite_ok): Fix the gettext calls so
that the second string is tagged for translation.
Display the correct "replace ..." prompt when in move_mode.
* tests/mv/i-3.sh: Display the output on failure to ease debugging.
|
|
* src/ptx.c (main): Add a 'break' after the --format handling case.
Otherwise it would fall through into the usage case.
* tests/misc/ptx.pl: Add test cases for --format=tex and --format=roff.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention the fix.
Bug introduced in 1999-04-04 commit, SH-UTILS-1_16f-269-gd815c15.
Spotted by coverity (MISSING_BREAK).
|
|
* src/copy.c (overwrite_prompt): New arg X. All callers changed.
Use X to improve the quality of the prompt (Bug#17087).
* tests/mv/i-2.sh, tests/mv/i-3.sh: Change test to match new prompt.

For files with "special" bits set, we would stat the relative
file name in the wrong directory, giving an erroneous ENOENT diagnostic.
This issue was introduced with commit v5.92-653-gc1994c1
which changed fts to not change directory on traversal.
* src/chmod.c (mode_changed): Use fts->fts_cwd_fd with fstatat rather
than stat. All callers changed.
* tests/chmod/c-option.sh: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

Prior to this change, "ln -sr '' F" would segfault, attempting
to read path2[1] in relpath.c's path_common_prefix function.
This problem arises whenever canonicalize_filename_mode returns
NULL.
* src/ln.c (convert_abs_rel): Call relpath only when
both canonicalize_filename_mode calls return non-NULL.
* tests/ln/relative.sh: Add a test to trigger this failure.
* THANKS.in: List reporter's name/address.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
Reported by Erik Bernstein in 739752@bugs.debian.org.

- Support arbitrary numbers in --groups, consistent with
what is already done for --userspec
- Avoid look-ups entirely for --groups items with a leading '+'
- Support names that are actually numbers in --groups
- Ignore an empty --groups="" option for consistency with --userspec
- Look up both inside and outside the chroot with inside taking
precedence. The look-up outside may load required libraries
to complete the look-up inside the chroot. This can happen for
example with a 32 bit chroot on a 64 bit system, where the
32 bit NSS plugins within the chroot fail to load.
* src/chroot.c (parse_additional_groups): A new function refactored
from set_addition_groups(), to just do the parsing. The actual
setgroups() call is separated out for calling from the chroot later.
(main): Call parse_user_spec() and parse_additional_groups()
both outside and inside the chroot for the reasons outlined above.
* tests/misc/chroot-credentials.sh: Ensure arbitrary numeric IDs
can be specified without causing look-up errors.
* NEWS: Mention the improvements.
* THANKS.in: Add Norihiro Kamae who initially reported the issue
with a proposed patch.
Also thanks to Dmitry V. Levin for his diagnosis and sample patch.

On most shells `:>file || framework_failure_` will not evaluate
the framework_failure_ even if there was an error writing the file.
shells which do evaluate the failure are ksh 93u+ and bash 4.2,
while shells wich don't include bash 4.3, solaris, freebsd, dash.
Furthermore this construct is problematic on Solaris 10 sh,
which will try to optimize away a `:' command in a loop
after the first iteration, even if it is redirected.
* tests/cp/link-deref.sh: Remove the leading colon on redirections.

* tests/misc/nohup.sh: When running tests without a controlling tty,
an exec failure is triggered in a subshell, which causes POSIX
shells to immediately exit the subshell. This was brought
to notice by the newly conforming bash 4.3.

Problem reported by valiant xiao in <http://bugs.gnu.org/16855>.
* NEWS: Document this.
* src/shuf.c (main): With -r, report an error if the input is empty.
* tests/misc/shuf.sh: Test for the bug.
|
|
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): If linkat() is available it doesn't
matter about the gnulib emulation provided, and thus the
LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS should not have significance here.
This was noticed on FreeBSD and the consequence is that
cp --link will create hardlinks to symlinks there, rather
than emulating with symlinks to symlinks.
* tests/cp/link-deref.sh: Adjust the checks to cater
for all cases where hardlinks to symlinks are supported.
|
|
If we can't output more data, we should immediately
diagnose the issue and exit rather than consuming all
of input (in some cases).
* src/tail.c (xwrite_stdout): Also diagnose the case where
only some data is written. Also clearerr() to avoid the
redundant less specific error from atexit (close_stdout);
* src/head.c (xwrite_stdout): Copy this new function from tail,
and use it to write all output.
* tests/misc/head-write-error.sh: A new test to ensure we
exit immediately on write error.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
|
|
* src/head.c (elide_tail_lines_pipe): Just output all input in
this case to avoid the issue and also avoid redundant '\n' processing.
(elide_tail_lines_seekable): Likewise.
* tests/misc/head-elide-tail.pl: Add tests for no '\n' at EOF.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

taking "little" and "big" as parameters.
(usage): Describe the new option.
(PRINT_FIELDS): Adjust to swap bytes if required.
* tests/misc/od-endian.sh: A new test to verify
the byte swapping operations for hex (ints) and floats
for all sizes between 1 and 16 inclusive.
* test/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* doc/coreutils.texi (od invocation): Describe the new option.

* tests/chown/separator.sh: skip test if the user's group has
multiple entries.

* src/ln.c (errno_nonexisting): A new function to determine if
the errno implies that a file doesn't or can't (currently) exist.
(target_directory_operand): Use the new function to expand the
set of errors we handle.
* tests/ln/sf-1.sh: Add test cases for the newly handled errors.
* THANKS.in: Mention the reporter.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
|
|
* tests/cp/no-ctx.sh: Since the test diagnoses whether the
intercepted lgetfilecon() calls are actually called or not,
restrict the test to systems where that occurs.
The test cases are minimal on non SELinux systems and should
be well covered by other tests.

* src/selinux.c (restorecon_private): On ArchLinux the
`fakeroot cp -a file1 file2` command segfaulted due
to getfscreatecon() returning a NULL context.
So map this to the sometimes ignored ENODATA error,
rather than crashing.
* tests/cp/no-ctx.sh: Add a new test case.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

* init.cfg (gcc_shared_): A new function refactored from tests.
(require_gcc_shared_): Adjust to call gcc_shared_() to build the
test library, and remove that library before the function returns.
* tests/cp/nfs-removal-race.sh: Call the new gcc_shared_().
* tests/df/no-mtab-status.sh: Likewise.

* tests/ls/getxattr-speedup.sh: Likewise.
* tests/rm/r-root.sh: Likewise.

|
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use the global process context
to set the context of existing directories before they're populated.
This is more consistent with the new directory case, and fixes
a bug for existing directories where we erroneously set the
context to the last copied descendent, rather than to that of
the source directory itself.
* tests/cp/cp-a-selinux.sh: Add a test for this case.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
* THANKS.in: Add reporter Michal Trunecka.

On emulated aarch64 systems like in the qemu-based OpenBuildService
of openSUSE, cp fails to copy /proc/cpuinfo because the inode number
changes between the initial stat() call and copying the file:
$ cp /proc/cpuinfo exp
cp: skipping file '/proc/cpuinfo', as it was \
replaced while being copied
* tests/cp/proc-zero-len.sh: When cp fails, check on the above
error message to skip the test.

Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this,
perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test
to make that one script use the single most recent year number.
|
|
* gnulib: Update to latest.
* bootstrap: Update from gnulib.
* tests/init.sh: Likewise.
|
|
* test/dd/no-allocate.sh: Use 'wait' to ensure we don't have
multiple writers to the fifo, which was seen to trigger
a very hard to reproduce deadlock with make -j20 on solaris.
Also avoid writing to the fifo with the shell; instead using dd.
(check_dd_seek_alloc): A new function refactored from the various
cases, which are now constructed from function parameters.
|
|
* tests/cp/link-deref.sh: On systems were cp can't determine if
gnulib linkat() emulation might create a symlink instead of a hardlink
to a symlink, copy.c will create a symlink to the symlink so that
it has more control over its metadata. Also even if the system
supports this operation, the particular file system under test may not.
So avoid the hardlinked symlink verification in these cases.
This fixes a false failure on aix, solaris and freebsd.
|
|
* tests/df/total-unprocessed.sh: Skip the test when we can't
determine the file system type as the exclusion filter is not
applied in that case. "lofs" being ignored is effectively
an unknown file system type.
|
|
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap.sh: Newer versions of filefrag output
more fields, in different orders, so handle that to avoid warnings.
|
|
* tests/readlink/multi.sh: Ensure there is a trailing delimeter
or xargs may (on AIX 7 at least) suppress the last argument.
|
|
* tests/rm/interactive-once.sh: Ensure the expected output
matches with the output on systems without /dev/stdin (like AIX 7).
Also change some fail=1 to a more appropriate framework_failure_.

Inline functions are awkward to breakpoint as mentioned at:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10738
The normal case here was for the breakpoint on the inline function
to fail, resulting in a 10s delay before skipping the test.
However on GCC 4.7.2 on ppc64 at least it was seen that
the test failed erroneously due to the breakpoint being successfully
set on an "out of line" function, but an inline function was
actually being called.
* tests/tail-2/inotify-race.sh: Switch to a line based breakpoint,
rather than a symbol base one, which avoids issues with breakpoints
on inline functions. Also skip_ on the initial breakpoint check
in case the breakpoint is not traversed which would be the case
on remote file systems for example.
|
|
* src/tail.c: With inotify, when a file is initially absent,
we fstat(-1) for that file spec, thus recording an errnum of EBADF,
which caused the "has become accessible" diagnostic to be issued,
when the file first appears. Instead we avoid the fstat(-1) and
thus emit the more natural and consistent "has appeared" diagnostic.
* tests/tail-2/retry.sh: Use the new diagnostic which also causes
this test to pass on systems without inotify.
|
|
* tests/df/total-unprocessed.sh: -t nfs and --local are
_not_ mutually exclusive on solaris, with lofs mounts.
|
|
* tests/cp/link-deref.sh: This was seen to cause an issue
with dash v0.5.6 at least, so change to a simpler expression.
|
|
* tests/ls/stat-free-color.sh: Add newfstatat to the list
of syscalls to trace. Also add all "stat" syscalls to the
list of syscalls that we verify that strace supports.
Also only create a single dangling symlink to check, since
we already only check for a single "stat" call.

* tests/misc/shuf-reservoir.sh: Restrict the valgrind
"exit on leak" behavior to developer environments where
specific "lint" code is enabled to avoid inconsequential leaks.
|
|
Previously, the test triggered another error diagnostic:
shuf: invalid input range ‘-e’
and therefore eclipsed the expected one:
shuf: cannot combine -e and -i options
While at it, reindent a line with more than 80 characters, present
since the previous commit to silence sc_long_lines.
* tests/misc/shuf.sh: Pass a valid range to the -i option.
|

Original problem reported by Philipp Thomas in
<http://bugs.gnu.org/16061>.
* NEWS: shuf --repeat, not shuf --repetitions.
* doc/coreutils.texi (shuf invocation):

Likewise. Also, the default head-count is infinity.
|
|
* src/selinux.h (ignorable_ctx_err): A new function used
to determine if a warning should be given after a call
to defaultcon() or restorecon().
* src/cp.c (main): Fix the setfscreatecon() call to use
the argument passed by the user.
* src/mkdir.c (make_ancestor): Show all but "ignoreable" errors
from defaultcon() and restorecon().
* tests/misc/selinux.sh: Add a test run as root in selinux enforcing
mode, to ensure cp --context=invalid is honored and fails immediately.

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.

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.

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.

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.

* 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.
|

* 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.

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.

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

* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* docs/coreutils.texi (stty invocation): Mention the new flag.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
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.
