2012-06-05head: with --lines=-N (-n-N) reset file pointer on seekable inputJim Meyering
* src/head.c (elide_tail_lines_seekable): Reset file pointer after printing up to an end-relative line-counted offset. Anoop Sharma reported the problem and suggested the fix. * tests/misc/head-pos: Add coverage via a very similar, existing test. Also add coverage for a previously untested block of code. * tests/misc/head-elide-tail ($READ_BUFSIZE): Update to 8192, to match the value of BUFSIZ I see today on Fedora 17/x86_64 (unrelated to this fix). * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Improved-by: Pádraig Brady
2012-05-31maint: fix typos in test comments and old ChangeLog filesJim Meyering
Culprits identified and fixed automatically using these commands: git ls-files|misspellings -f -|perl -nl \ -e '/^(.*?)\[(\d+)\]: (\w+) -> "(.*?)"$/ or next;' \ -e '($file,$n,$l,$r)=($1,$2,$3,$4); $q="'\''"; $r=~s/$q/$q\\$q$q/g;'\ -e 'print "sed -i $q${n}s!$l!$r!$q $file"' | bash using http://github.com/lyda/misspell-check * old/fileutils/ChangeLog: Fix typos. * old/textutils/ChangeLog: Likewise. * tests/misc/truncate-fail-diag: Likewise.
2012-05-16tests: use $AWK, not awkJim Meyering
* tests/cp/sparse-fiemap: Don't hard-code "awk". Use $AWK. * tests/init.cfg: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-rand: Likewise.
2012-05-12ls: color each symlink-to-relative-name in / properlyJim Meyering
In order for ls --color to color each symlink, it must form the name of each referent and then stat it to see if the link is dangling, to a directory, to a file, etc. When the symlink is to a relative name, ls must concatenate the starting directory name and that relative name. When, in addition, the starting directory was "/" or "/some-name", the result was ill-formed, and the subsequent stat would usually fail, making the caller color it as a dangling symlink. * src/ls.c (make_link_name): Don't botch the case in which dir_name(NAME) == "/" and LINKNAME is relative. * tests/ls/root-rel-symlink-color: New file. Test for the above. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Reported by Mike Frysinger in http://bugs.gnu.org/11453 Bug introduced by commit v8.16-23-gbcb9078.
2012-05-10tests: misc/tty-eof: increase timeout to avoid unwarranted failureJim Meyering
* tests/misc/tty-eof: Increase timeout from 1s to 10s, to avoid unwarranted failure under heavy load. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Move misc/tty-eof "up" to nearer the beginning of the list (from near the middle) so that it is started earlier in parallel test runs. Otherwise, it would frequently be among the last two tests to complete.
2012-05-10maint: handle file sizes more reliablyPaul Eggert
Problem reported by Samuel Thibault in <http://bugs.gnu.org/11424>. * NEWS: Document this. * src/dd.c (skip): Handle skipping past EOF on shared or typed memory objects the same way as with regular files. (dd_copy): It's OK to truncate shared memory objects. * src/du.c (duinfo_add): Check for overflow. (print_only_size): Report overflow. (process_file): Ignore negative file sizes in the --apparent-size case. * src/od.c (skip): Fix comment about st_size. * src/split.c (main): * src/truncate.c (do_ftruncate, main): On files where st_size is not portable, fall back on using lseek with SEEK_END to determine the size. Although strictly speaking POSIX says the behavior is implementation-defined, in practice if lseek returns a nonnegative value it's a reasonable one to use for the file size. * src/system.h (usable_st_size): Symlinks have reliable st_size too. * tests/misc/truncate-dir-fail: Don't assume that getting the size of a dir is not allowed, as it's now allowed on many platforms, e.g., GNU/Linux.
2012-05-08build: update gnulib submodule to latest; also bootstrap and init.shJim Meyering
* bootstrap: Update from gnulib. * tests/init.sh: Likewise.
2012-05-08maint: fix common spelling errorsKevin Lyda
These were identified using: https://github.com/lyda/misspell-check executed like: git ls-files | misspellings -f - * src/cat.c: Correct a spelling error. * src/comm.c: Likewise. * src/expr.c: Likewise. * src/pr.c: Likewise. * src/tac.c: Likewise. * src/test.c: Likewise. * src/ChangeLog-2005: Likewise. * src/ChangeLog-2007: Likewise. * src/NEWS: Likewise. * src/doc/coreutils.texi: Likewise. * src/lib/ChangeLog-2007: Likewise. * src/man/help2man: Likewise. * src/old/fileutils/ChangeLog-1997: Likewise. * src/old/fileutils/NEWS: Likewise. * src/old/sh-utils/ChangeLog.0: Likewise. * src/old/textutils/ChangeLog: Likewise. * src/tests/misc/comm: Likewise. * src/tests/misc/uniq: Likewise. * src/tests/mv/dir2dir: Likewise. * src/cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): update with `make update-NEWS-hash`
2012-05-07tests: avoid LD_PRELOAD lookup error for dlsymJim Meyering
* tests/cp/nfs-removal-race: Link with -ldl.
2012-05-07cp: handle a race condition more sensiblyJim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): In a narrow race (stat sees dest, yet open-without-O_CREAT fails with ENOENT), retry the open with O_CREAT. * tests/cp/nfs-removal-race: New file. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Reported by Philipp Thomas and Neil F. Brown in http://bugs.gnu.org/11100
2012-04-27id,groups: with no user name, print only real and/or effective IDs,Jim Meyering
... i.e., don't use the getpw* functions. Before this change, running groups or id with no user name argument would include a group name or ID from /etc/passwd. Thus, under unusual circumstances (default group is changed, but has not taken effect for a given session), those programs could print a name or ID that is neither real nor effective. To demonstrate, run this: echo 'for i in 1 2; do id -G; sleep 1.5; done' \ |su -s /bin/sh ftp - & sleep 1; perl -pi -e 's/^(ftp:x:\d+):(\d+)/$1:9876/' /etc/passwd Those id -G commands printed the following: 50 50 9876 With this change, they print this: 50 50 Similarly, running those programs set-GID could make them print one ID too many. * src/group-list.c (print_group_list): When username is NULL, pass egid, not getpwuid(ruid)->pw_gid), to xgetgroups, per the API requirements of xgetgroups callee, mgetgroups. When not using the password database, don't call getpwuid. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. * tests/misc/id-setgid: New file. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. (root_tests): It's a root-only test, so add it here, too. Originally reported by Brynnen Owen as http://bugs.gnu.org/7320. Raised again by Marc Mengel in http://bugzilla.redhat.com/816708.
2012-04-19tests: factor out expensive "pairs" code of misc/sttyBernhard Voelker
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add misc/stty-pairs. * tests/init.cfg (stty_reversible_init_): New function. (stty_reversible_query_): New function. * tests/misc/stty: Factor out expensive "pairs" code into new test. Use new stty_reversible_* functions instead of evaluating static REV_* variables. * tests/misc/stty-pairs: Add new test. Code added from misc/stty. Mark this as an expensive test. Skip 'parenb' and 'cread' options, as these tests are known to fail. Like in misc/stty, also use the new stty_reversible_* functions.
2012-04-19tests: add iutf8 option to misc/sttyBernhard Voelker
* tests/misc/stty: Add iutf8 to the list of REV_* options. That option has been implemented in commit v5.2.1-193-g733e79e.
2012-04-12fmt: accept new --goal=WIDTH (-g) optionBruce Korb
Accept -g for BSD/Plan9 compatibility. * NEWS (New features): Mention it. * tests/fmt/goal-option: New test. * tests/fmt/long-line: Rename from tests/fmt-long-line. * tests/fmt/base: Rename from tests/misc/fmt. * doc/coreutils.texi: Document it. * src/fmt.c (main): Accept the new option (check_for_goals): new function to implement the operands Based on BSD's and Plan-9's fmt programs.
2012-04-12cp: change --attributes-only to not truncate existing filesPádraig Brady
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't truncate an existing file, to support copying attributes between existing files. The original use case only considered creating new files, and it would be a very unusual use case to be relying on the truncating behavior. * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Mention the non truncating behavior. * tests/cp/attr-existing: A new test to ensure O_TRUNC skipped. * tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
2012-04-04tests: avoid unnecessary subshells in misc/sttyAndreas Schwab
* tests/misc/stty: Don't waste a subshell to perform this: eval rev=\$REV_$opt. Fix rev1,rev2 assignments similarly.
2012-04-04tests: correct reversed args to "compare"Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/sort-discrim: Correct reversed args to "compare". This nit was masked by a bug in maint.mk that effectively disabled many of the syntax-check rules.
2012-04-04tests: remove nearly all remaining backticksJim Meyering
* tests/rm/isatty: Remove now-unneeded "# `" line. * tests/misc/ls-time: Likewise. * tests/misc/date-sec: Remove stray "`" in comment. * tests/du/long-sloop: Likewise. * tests/mv/part-symlink: Replace multi-line `...` by $(...). * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart: Likewise. * tests/rm/fail-2eperm: Likewise. * tests/ls/nameless-uid: Likewise. * tests/cp/perm: Likewise. * tests/cp/preserve-gid: Likewise. * tests/cp/same-file: Likewise.
2012-04-04tests: use perl's qx!...! rather than `...`Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/expr: As above. * tests/misc/ls-misc: Likewise. * tests/misc/pwd-long: Likewise. * tests/misc/uniq: Likewise.
2012-04-04tests: convert nearly all `...` expressions to $(...)Jim Meyering
Exempt init.sh because it runs before we're assured to have a shell that groks $(...). Exempt *.mk because "$" would have to be doubled, and besides, any `...` expression in a .mk file is almost certainly evaluated before init.sh is run. Finally, also exempt the perl-based tests, because perl's `...` cannot be converted to $(...). Do that by running this command: git grep -l '`.*`' tests \ | grep -Ev 'init\.sh|\.mk$' | xargs grep -Lw perl \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/`(.*?)`/\$($1)/g' One minor fix-up change was required after that, due to how quoting differs: diff --git a/tests/chmod/equals b/tests/chmod/equals - expected_perms=$(eval 'echo \$expected_'$dest) + expected_perms=$(eval 'echo $expected_'$dest) Another was to make these required quoting adjustments: diff --git a/tests/misc/stty b/tests/misc/stty ... - rev=$(eval echo "\\\$REV_$opt") + rev=$(eval echo "\$REV_$opt") ... - rev1=$(eval echo "\\\$REV_$opt1") - rev2=$(eval echo "\\\$REV_$opt2") + rev1=$(eval echo "\$REV_$opt1") + rev2=$(eval echo "\$REV_$opt2") Also, transform two files that were needlessly excluded above: (both use perl, but are mostly bourne shell) perl -pi -e 's/`(.*?)`/\$($1)/g' \ tests/du/long-from-unreadable tests/init.cfg
2012-04-03tests: convert one `...` expression manuallyJim Meyering
* tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Manually convert `(...)` to $(...), to avoid automatically producing an invalid result.
2012-04-03tests: fix quoting bug in misc/nohupJim Meyering
* tests/misc/nohup: Fix invalid quoting.
2012-04-03tests: avoid spurious misc/expr failure on AIX 6.1Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/expr: Avoid spurious failure on AIX 6.1 due to differing regexp diagnostic. Reported by Michael Felt.
2012-03-26tests: remove temporary skip for sort-stale-thread-mem failureJim Meyering
* tests/misc/sort-stale-thread-mem: Invoke framework_failure_, now, hoping that valgrind is fixed (or we add exclusions) before the next release.
2012-03-26tests: work around F17-valgrind sort-stale-thread-mem failureJim Meyering
* tests/misc/sort-stale-thread-mem: Skip upon known failure.
2012-03-23tests: skip ls/stat-free-color on XFS, rather than always failingJim Meyering
* tests/init.cfg (require_dirent_d_type_): Manually skip when "." is an xfs file system.
2012-03-23tests: skip part of dd/sparse on some file systemsJim Meyering
* tests/dd/sparse: The last two parts of this test would fail due to the underlying file system at least on Solaris 10 with NFS. That file system would report that a 3MiB file was occupying <= 1KiB of space for nearly 50 seconds after creation. Improved-by: Bernhard Voelker
2012-03-22ln: add the --relative optionHarald Hoyer
With the "--relative --symbolic" options, ln computes the relative symbolic link for the user. So, ln works just as cp, but creates relative symbolic links instead of copying the file. I miss this feature since the beginning of using ln. $ tree ./ / `-- usr |-- bin `-- lib `-- foo `-- foo 4 directories, 1 file $ ln -s -v --relative usr/lib/foo/foo usr/bin/foo ‘usr/bin/foo’ -> ‘../lib/foo/foo’ $ tree ./ / `-- usr |-- bin | `-- foo -> ../lib/foo/foo `-- lib `-- foo `-- foo 4 directories, 2 files $ ln -s -v --relative usr/bin/foo usr/lib/foo/link-to-foo ‘usr/lib/foo/link-to-foo’ -> ‘foo’ $ tree ./ / `-- usr |-- bin | `-- foo -> ../lib/foo/foo `-- lib `-- foo |-- link-to-foo -> foo `-- foo 4 directories, 3 files * src/Makefile.am: Reference the relpath module. * src/ln.c (usage): Mention the new option. (do_link): Call the relative conversion if specified. (convert_abs_rel): Perform the relative conversion using the relpath module. * tests/ln/relative: Add a new test. * tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test. * doc/coreutils.texi: Document the new feature. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
2012-03-20tests: avoid spurious misc/factor failure on OpenBSD 5.1Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/factor: Map OpenBSD 5.1's "unknown option" to our expected "invalid option". Reported by Bruno Haible.
2012-03-20tests: avoid spurious dd/sparse failurePádraig Brady
* tests/dd/sparse: Allow for greater variation in sparse-block counts. Reported by Nelson H. F. Beebe and Bruno Haible.
2012-03-17tests: fix sort-discrim to work without GMPPádraig Brady
* tests/misc/sort-discrim: The expr limit is intmax_t without GMP.
2012-03-16tests: avoid an ls-time false positive on Solaris 10Pádraig Brady
* tests/misc/ls-time: Force a ctime update as updating the atime doesn't update ctime on tmpfs on Solaris 10.
2012-03-15realpath: let --relative-to default to --relative-baseEric Blake
Most of the time, if someone wants to filter which paths are relative while leaving all others absolute, they also want to to the filtering based on the same --relative-to directory. Make this easier to specify. * src/realpath.c (main): Convert error to default. * doc/coreutils.texi (realpath invocation): Document this. * tests/misc/realpath: Adjust test to match. * NEWS: Document it.
2012-03-15tests: cover more realpath scenariosEric Blake
'realpath --relative-base --relative-to' is identical to --relative-base=--relative-to, so the test wasn't covering what it claimed. Expose recent fixes for handling of // on systems where // is distinct, and for --relative-base=/. Add test that exposes our design decision that --relative-base that is not a prefix of --relative-to is a no-op (if we later change behavior, we will also have to change that part of the test). * tests/misc/realpath: Fix typo. Add some tests.
2012-03-14test: expose recent gnulib canonicalize bugEric Blake
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-02/msg00038.html detailed a couple of bugs in gnulib's canonicalize that were visible through coreutils' readlink, but only on systems where // is distinct from /. This particular test assumes the POSIX fix which requires canonicalization of a symlink containing just slashes to behave as if slashes separating the symlink from the rest of the name are elided (see http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=541), as that is the only useful (and current) behavior on Cygwin. That is, ln -s / root ls root/dev must list the contents of /dev, not //dev. * tests/misc/readlink-root: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Run it.
2012-03-13tests: new discriminator-based test for sort -n and -hPaul Eggert
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add misc/sort-discrim. * tests/misc/sort-discrim: New file, which tests a discriminator-based implementation of 'sort'. Coreutils doesn't use this implementation yet, but the test is useful anyway. Co-authored-by: Drew Kutilek <dkutilek@ucla.edu> Co-authored-by: James Wendt <jwendt@cs.ucla.edu>
2012-03-10dirname: support more than one argumentJérémy Compostella
* src/dirname.c (main): Handle new -z option and manage more than one argument. * doc/coreutils.texi (dirname invocation): Mention it. * NEWS (New features): Mention it. * tests/misc/dirname: Add a two arguments test.
2012-03-10split: support an arbitrary number of split files by defaultJérémy Compostella
* src/split.c (next_file_name): If `suffix_auto' is true and the first suffix character is 'z', generate a new file file name adding `z' to the prefix and increasing the suffix length by one. (set_suffix_length): Disable auto suffix width in various cases. * tests/split/suffix-auto-length: Test it. * doc/coreutils.texi (split invocation): Mention it. * NEWS (Improvements): Likewise.
2012-03-08chmod: add notations +40, 00440, etc.Paul Eggert
* NEWS: Document this. * doc/perm.texi (Operator Numeric Modes): New section. (Numeric Modes, Directory Setuid and Setgid): Document new behavior. * src/chmod.c (usage): Document new behavior. (main): Support new options -0, -1, etc. * tests/chmod/setgid: Test these new features.
2012-03-08du: fix -x: don't ignore non-directory argumentsJim Meyering
Surprise! "du -x non-DIR" would print nothing. Note that the problem arises only when processing a non-directory specified on the command line. Not surprisingly, "du -x" still works as expected for any directory argument. When performing its same-file-system check, du may skip an entry only if it is at fts_level 1 or greater. Command-line arguments are at fts_level == 0 (FTS_ROOTLEVEL). * src/du.c (process_file): Don't use the top-level FTS->fts_dev when testing for --one-file-system (-x). It happens to be valid for directories, but it is always 0 for a non-directory. * tests/du/one-file-system: Add tests for this. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Reported by Daniel Stavrovski in http://bugs.gnu.org/10967. Introduced by commit v8.14-95-gcfe1040.
2012-03-07basename: support more than one argumentJérémy Compostella
* src/basename.c (perform_basename): New function refactored from main() that performs the basename work on a STRING, optionally removes a trailing SUFFIX and outputs the result. (main): Handle new options. * doc/coreutils.texi (basename invocation): Mention new options. * test/misc/basename: Add new options test cases. * NEWS (New features): Mention it.
2012-03-02tests: work around a block alignment issue in dd/sparsePádraig Brady
Prompted by the continuous integration build failure at: http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2188210 (which uses XFS). * tests/dd/sparse (alloc_equal): Add a block allocation comparison function that accounts for variations due to alignment.
2012-02-29tests: compile and link shared object with $CC to make LD_PRELOAD workBernhard Voelker
* tests/ls/getxattr-speedup: Compile and link in one step with $CC. If the shared object file is created by ld (binutils), then the destructor print_call_count() may not run (seen on OpenSuSE 12.1). See http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2012-02/msg01342.html Thanks to Cristian Rodríguez.
2012-02-29dd: add support for the conv=sparse optionRoman Rybalko
Notes: Small seeks are not coalesced to larger ones, like is done in cache_round() for example. conv= is used rather then oflag= for FreeBSD compatibility. * src/dd.c (final_op_was_seek): A new global boolean to flag whether the final "write" was converted to a seek. (usage): Describe the new conf=sparse option. (iwrite): Convert a write of a NUL block to a seek if requested. (do_copy): Initialize the output buffer to have a sentinel, to allow for efficient testing for NUL output blocks. If the last block in the file was converted to a seek, then convert back to a write so the size is updated. * NEWS: Mention the new feature. * tests/dd/sparse: A new test for the feature. * tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test.
2012-02-26tests: fix help-version on cygwin, where $EXEEXT is nonemptyJim Meyering
* tests/misc/help-version: Remove the $EXEEXT suffix from each program name before comparing with a literal.
2012-02-26tests: remove unnecessary use of -lcBernhard Voelker
* tests/ls/getxattr-speedup: Remove unneeded use of -lc.
2012-02-20split: add the --additional-suffix optionJérémy Compostella
Add the --additional-suffix option, to append an additional static suffix to output file names. * src/split.c (next_file_name): Append suffix to output file names. (main): Handle new --additional-suffix option. * NEWS (New features): Mention it. * doc/coreutils.texi (split invocation): Mention it. * tests/split/additional-suffix: New file. Test --additional-suffix. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. Requested by Peng Yu, in bug 6554
2012-02-19tests: ls/getxattr-speedup: include <sys/types.h> for older headersJérémy Compostella
Modern <stdio.h> provides ssize_t, but the one from Debian's libc6-dev 2.11.2-10 apparently does not. * tests/ls/getxattr-speedup: Also include <sys/types.h>.
2012-02-18tests: test for ls speed-upJim Meyering
* tests/ls/getxattr-speedup: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. Improved-by: Bernhard Voelker
