* src/stdbuf.c (main): Pass the path of `stdbuf` rather than
the command it's running to the search function. This is
significant on platforms without /proc/self/exe
Reported by Bruno Haible
... which is not available on some platforms,
and the replacement currently requires linking
with threading libraries.
* src/split.c (closeout): Remove the call to strsignal()
which is largely redundant anyway as sig2str()
is already used to map number to name in the error.
Reported by Bruno Haible on AIX 6.1 and 7.1
Thanks to an improvement in gnulib's parse-datetime module,
commands like this now succeed (output manually indented):
$ ./date -u -d 2004-02-29T16:21:42.33+07:00 +%FT%T.%N%z
2004-02-29T09:21:42.330000000+0000
* tests/misc/date: Add a test to exercise the new-in-gnulib
parsing of ISO8601-with-"T" dates.
* NEWS (New features): Mention it.
* gnulib: Update, to pull in this parse-datetime improvement.
* gl/lib/heap.c: Move declaration to the top of scope.
Reported by Rob McMahon and Wolfgang Steinwender
in relation to "Sun WorkShop 6 update 2 C 5.3 Patch 111679-12
2003/05/18" and "GCC 2.95.3" respectively.
This effectively reverts the unreleased commit 5a647a05
* src/timeout.c (main): Don't propagate signals from the monitored
process, as on Linux /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern could still
handle them and cause false reports against `timeout`
Lesson: do not include details like "4 million" in a file name.
* tests/rm/many-dir-entries-vs-OOM: Renamed from ...
* tests/rm/4-million-entry-dir: ...this.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Reflect renaming.
* tests/rm/4-million-entry-dir: Create only 200,000 files, rather
than 4 million. The latter was overkill, and was too likely to
fail due to inode exhaustion. Not everyone is using btrfs yet.
Now that this test doesn't take so long, label it as merely
"expensive", rather than "very expensive". Thanks to
Bernhard Voelker for pointing out the risk of inode exhaustion.
Ever since the LAST_PAGE functionality was added
in commit ed0923a1, 1996-12-05,
"Apply big patch (patch-20) from Roland Huebner"
it was ignored when -t or -T were specified or
when -l <= 10.
* src/pr.c (print_page): Increment the current page here.
(print_header): Don't increment the current page here.
* tests/pr/pr-tests: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Mention the fix
Reported at http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=9347
For details, see the gnulib commit,
http://git.sv.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/commit/?id=47cb657e
* tests/rm/4-million-entry-dir: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* gnulib: Update to latest to get the required fts fixes.
* src/head.c (elide_tail_bytes_pipe): Remove the empty statement, ";"
after a jump label; it is needed only when a declaration follows.
* src/kill.c (main): Likewise.
* src/od.c (main): Likewise.
* src/paste.c (collapse_escapes): Likewise.
* src/printf.c (print_formatted): Likewise.
This problem was discovered when trying to build git coreutils on
Solaris 8 sparcv9 with Sun C 5.8: the 3rd argument to mbrlen was
of type int * (a pointer to the gnulib replacement mbstate_t) but
the system mbrlen wants the system mbstate_t *.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add mbrlen.
* src/pathchk.c (mbrlen, mbstate_t) [!(HAVE_MBRLEN && HAVE_MBSTATE_T)]:
Remove macros, which are wrong now that gnulib supplies
replacements for mbstate_t and mbrlen.
* bootstrap: Sync from gnulib. This removes an obsolescent
gettext.m4 patch, along with some other changes that do not
seem to affect coreutils.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Use gettext, not gettext-h.
Current gnulib gettext seems to work without needing special hacking.
* configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Now 0.18.1, not 0.17.
* gnulib: Update to latest.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add largefile.
This is useful to Mac OS X 10.5 users if/when configure
is generated using autoconf prior to v2.68-80-gdb2f2e0.
* gnulib: Update to latest.
* tests/du/inaccessible-cwd: Skip this test on systems like HP-UX 11.31
that lack both the *at functions and the /proc/self/fd-based support
we might have used to emulate them. Reported by Bruno Haible in
http://debbugs.gnu.org/8846
* src/join (g_names): New global (was main's "names").
(main): Update all uses of "names".
(line_no[2]): New globals.
(get_line): Increment after reading each line.
(check_order): Print the standard "file name:line_no: " prefix
as well as the offending line when reporting disorder.
Here is a sample old/new comparison:
-join: file 1 is not in sorted order
+join: in:4: is not sorted: contents-of-line-4
* tests/misc/join: Change the two affected tests to expect
the new diagnostic.
Add new tests for more coverage: mismatch in file 2,
two diagnostics, zero-length out-of-order line.
* NEWS (Improvements): Mention it.
Suggested by David Gast in http://debbugs.gnu.org/9236
This is especially important for an error-handling shell function
like this that is actually called only rarely.
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_framework_failure): New rule, to prevent
use of the old name.
These changes were mostly mechanical, made by running the
following command:
git grep -lw framework_failure | grep -v ChangeLog \
| xargs perl -pi -e 's/\b(framework_failure)\b/${1}_/'
and then editing init.cfg and `tests/cp/cp-a-selinux' by hand.
* tests/init.cfg (framework_failure): Remove, `framework_failure_'
from init.sh should be used instead in the tests.
Remove now-obsolete "FIXME" comment.
(is_local_dir_, require_strace_, require_membership_in_two_groups_,
require_sparse_support_, skip_if_mcstransd_is_running_,
mkfifo_or_skip_) Use `framework_failure_', not `framework_failure'.
* Many test scripts: Likewise.
* tests/init.cfg (framework_failure, getlimits_): Use 'fatal_'
instead of 'error_'.
(error_): Delete, it's not used anymore (and one is anyway
advised to use 'fatal_' instead).
Update heading comments.
* tests/shell-or-perl (error_): Renamed ...
(fatal_): ... to this, for consistency. Also, add a useful
comment.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Explicitly use the fclose module.
This is required, now that gnulib's close module no longer depends
on fclose. Without this module, we would be exposed to fclose bugs
affecting at least glibc 2.13 and FreeBSD.
Reported by Bernhard Voelker. Suggested by Eric Blake.
* src/copy.c (create_hard_link): A new function refactored
from existing code.
(copy_internal): Call the new function from all 3 locations
that create hard links.
* tests/cp/same-file: Amend to match the adjusted diagnostic.
* tests/cp/preserve-link: Add test cases for when a missing
link in the destination tree is encountered first and second.
Also add cases for old and new separate files in the destination
tree, both to make the clobbering behavior explicit, and to
test any changes in this area in future.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Adjust formatting style to conform with
guidelines in HACKING: put braces around two one-line "else" blocks.
* tests/cp/existing-perm-dir: Use $(...), not `...`, and
stat rather than ls+cut to get the mode string.
mode=$(stat --p=%A dst/dir)
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): If we don't create the directory,
then we cannot have omitted permissions. Problem and trivial
fix reported by Eric Lammerts.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp/existing-perm-dir.
* tests/cp/existing-perm-dir: New file.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): With --update (-u), this function would
return early once it found that the destination is not older than the
source, *without* recording the source-dev/ino--to--dest_name mapping.
That mapping is required in order to preserve src hard links in the
destination tree, so when using cp with --update and --preserve=links
(perhaps via -p or -a), cp could fail to preserve one hard link
per inode when at least one of the hard-linked names already exists
in the destination tree.
Reported by Odd Harry Mannsverk in http://debbugs.gnu.org/8419.
* tests/cp/preserve-link: New file. Exercise the flaw/fix.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* src/timeout.c (settimeout): A new function to convert
from a floating point duration and call alarm() or
timer_settime() if that's available.
(parse_duration): Return a double rather than unsigned int.
(usage): Mention floating point is supported.
(main): Pass the double to settimeout() rather than
calling alarm() directly with the parsed int.
(cleanup): Likewise.
* doc/coreutils.texi (timeout invocation): Say floating point timeouts
now supported, and mention the caveat with resolution.
* bootstrap.conf: Include the timer-time gnulib module.
* tests/misc/timeout-parameters: Add a test with nanoseconds.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
This change derives from improvements to gnulib's fsusage module.
* NEWS (Improvements): df now supports disk partitions larger than
4 TiB on MacOS X 10.5 or newer and on AIX 5.2 or newer.
Alphabetize entries.
* gnulib: Update to latest.
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): Use fdatasync only if declared.
MacOS X 10.7 has an fdatasync that is not declared, and is rumored to
be ineffective. (Bug#9141)
The following dropped the space from the first field
printf "1234567 \t1\n" | unexpand -a
Note POSIX says that spaces should not precede tabs.
Also a single trailing space should not be converted
if the next field starts with non blank characters.
So we enforce those rules too, with this change.
* src/unexpand.c (unexpand): Implement as per POSIX rules.
* tests/misc/unexpand: Add tests, and adjust existing
tests as per POSIX rules.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
Reported by Hallvard B Furuseth
Treat fractions as a request to round up to the next representable
value, and treat out-of-range values as maximal ones. This is
consistent with how "sleep" works. And this way, "timeout
999999999999999999d FOO" and "timeout 4.5 foo" are more likely to
do what the user wants.
* src/timeout.c: Include c-strtod.h and xstrtod.h, not xstrtol.h.
(apply_time_suffix): Change it to the way sleep.c's time_suffix
does things. Maybe this function (identical in both programs,
other than its name) should be moved to a library?
(parse_duration): Return a maximal value on overflow. Return
unsigned int, not unsigned long. Allow fractions, which round
up to the next integer value.
* tests/misc/timeout-parameters: Adjust tests to match new behavior.
Add a very large number.
* src/csplit.c (interrupt_handler): Reset signal to SIG_DFL
after deleting the files, so that a second interrupt won't
prematurely terminate cleanup.
(main): Don't use SA_NODEFER | SA_RESETHAND, as that might
allow premature termination of cleanup. Also, this ports better
to platforms like NonStop, which don't ahve SA_RESETHAND.
