* 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/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.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove pathmax.
* src/system.h: Don't include "pathmax.h".
(PATH_MAX) [!PATH_MAX]: Define to 8192. Defining it to a constant
is preferable to using a definition from pathmax.h that might expand
to pathconf ("/", _PC_PATH_MAX). Prompted by discussion leading to:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/27183/focus=27269
* gnulib: Update to latest.
* src/system.h: Definitions of ST_* macros have moved into the
gnulib module stat-size (specifically, the header file
stat-size.h), so remove them from here.
* src/truncate.c: Include stat-size.h.
* src/stat.c: Likewise.
* src/shred.c: Likewise.
* src/ls.c: Likewise.
* src/du.c: Likewise.
* src/ioblksize.h: New file. Move definition of io_blksize out of
system.h so that system.h does not have to include stat-size.h.
* src/cat.c: Include ioblksize.h.
* src/split.c: Likewise.
* src/copy.c: Include both stat-size.h and ioblksize.h.
* src/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Add ioblksize.h.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Include full-read and full-write
explicitly. Before, we'd get them via safe-read, but with newer
gnulib, that is no longer enough: link failure due to undefined
references to full_write.
* gl/lib/mbsalign.c (rpl_wcswidth): Remove this in favor
of the equivalent wcswidth replacement in gnulib.
* bootstrap.conf: Depend on the wcswidth module.
Suggested by Bruno Haible.
* bootstrap.conf: Add the read-file module
* src/ptx.c: Replace the original code which would
needlessly read SIZE_MAX bytes of files larger than this.
* src/shuf.c: Replace the original code.
Commit 041c9c47 traded the 'gettext' module for the lighter 'gettext-h'
module, so as to not require the latest gettext release (we only need
the latest release if we ship gettext as a dependent library, but
coreutils has long preferred to use it as an external library).
But that commit overlooked two places necessary to allow the use of
gettext 0.17.
This does not force you to downgrade (using gettext 0.18.1.1 is still
just fine), nor does it affect tarballs (once a tarball is built
with a given gettext version, it can be built on other machines
regardless of what gettext version is present).
* bootstrap.conf (buildreq): Relax prerequisite.
* configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Likewise.
* NEWS: Describe patch.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add ftoastr.
* src/od.c: Include ftoastr.h, not float.h.
(FLT_DIG, DBL_DIG): Remove. No need to verify LDBL_DIG.
(FMT_BYTES_ALLOCATED): No need to worry about floating point now,
since this format is no longer used for floating point.
(PRINT_FIELDS): New macro, with most of the guts of the old PRINT_TYPE.
(PRINT_TYPE): Rewrite to use PRINT_FIELDS.
(PRINT_FLOATTYPE): New macro. This uses the new functions from
ftoastr.
(print_float, print_double, print_long_double): Reimplement
using PRINT_FLOATTYPE.
(decode_one_format): Calculate field widths based on ftoastr-supplied
macros.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add misc/od-float.
* tests/misc/od-float: New file.
The implementation of variable-precision time stamps relied
on heuristics that made the output subtly nondeterministic,
or at least hard to reproduce:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/21531/focus=21538
So, for now at least, we're removing that feature.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove fstimeprec.
* gl/lib/fstimeprec.c, gl/lib/fstimeprec.h: Remove files.
* gl/modules/fstimeprec, gl/modules/fstimeprec-tests: Likewise.
* gl/tests/test-fstimeprec.c: Remove file.
* NEWS: Document this.
* doc/coreutils.texi (stat invocation): Likewise.
* gl/lib/fstimeprec.c, gl/lib/fstimeprec.h, gl/modules/fstimeprec:
* gl/modules/fstimeprec-tests, gl/tests/test-fstimeprec.c:
New files.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add fstimeprec.
* src/stat.c: Include fstimeprec.h. Don't include xstrtol.h.
(decimal_point, decimal_point_len): New static vars.
(main): Initialize them.
(epoch_sec, out_ns): Remove.
(out_int, out_uint): Now returns whatever printf returned.
(out_minus_zero, out_epoch_secs): New functions.
(print_stat): Use out_epoch_sec instead of out_ns and epoch_sec.
(print_stat, print_it, usage): Remove the %:X-style formats.
* tests/misc/stat-nanoseconds: Set TZ=UTC0 to avoid problems
with weird time zones. Use a time stamp near the Epoch so that we
don't have to worry about leap seconds. Redo test cases to match
new behavior.
* tests/touch/60-seconds: Change %Y.%:Y to %.9Y, to adjust to
new behavior.
With it, we can remove the two sole tests of HAVE_TERMIOS_H.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add termios.
* src/ls.c: Don't test HAVE_TERMIOS_H.
* src/stty.c: Likewise.
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (gl_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Remove configure-time
test for termios.h.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Use calloc-gnu, malloc-gnu
and realloc-gnu modules, rather than calloc, malloc and realloc.
The shorter-named modules are now deprecated.
(obsolete_gnulib_modules): Remove.
(gnulib_modules): Remove raise, strbprk; they're obsolete, too.
Move strtod, strtol here, from obsolete_gnulib_modules.
* bootstrap.conf: Include the new module
* gl/lib/fadvise.c: Provide a simpler interface to posix_fadvise.
(fadvise): Provide hint to the whole file associated with a stream.
(fdadvise): Provide hint to the specific portion of a file
associated with a file descriptor.
* gl/lib/fadvise.h: Redefine POSIX_FADV_* to FADVISE_* enums.
* gl/modules/fadvise: New file.
* m4/jm-macros.m4: Remove the no longer needed posix_fadvise check.
* .x-sc_program_name: Exclude test-fadvise.c from this check.
* gl/tests/test-fadvise (main): New test program.
* gl/modules/fadvise-testss: A new index to reference the tests.
* src/sort.c (stream_open): Use the new interface.
* src/dd.c (iwrite): Likewise.
This patch is by Gene Auyeung, Chris Dickens, Chen Guo, and Mike
Nichols, based off of a patch by Paul Eggert, Glen Lenker, et. al.,
with a basic heap implementation based off of the GDSL heap,
originally by Nicolas Darnis.
The number of sorts done in parallel is limited to the number
of available processors by default, or can be further restricted
with the --parallel option.
On a dual-die, 8 core Intel Xeon, results show sorting with
8 threads is almost 4 times faster than using a single thread.
Timings when sorting a 96MB file:
THREADS TIME (s)
1 5.10
2 2.87
4 1.75
8 1.31
Single threaded sorting has also been improved,
especially for cheaper comparison operations:
COMMAND BEFORE (s) AFTER (s)
sort 8.822 8.716
sort -g 10.336 10.222
sort -n 3.077 2.961
LANG=C sort 2.169 2.066
* bootstrap.conf: Add heap, pthread.
* coreutils.texi (sort): Describe the new --parallel option.
* gl/lib/heap.c: New file. Very basic heap implementation.
* gl/lib/heap.h: New file.
* gl/modules/heap: New file.
* src/Makefile.am: Add LIB_PTHREAD.
* src/sort.c: Include heap.h, nproc.h, pthread.h.
(MAX_MERGE): New macro.
(SUBTHREAD_LINES_HEURISTIC, PARALLEL_OPTION): New constants.
(MERGE_END, MERGE_ROOT): New constants.
(struct merge_node): New struct.
(struct merge_node_queue): New struct.
(sortlines temp): Remove declaration.
(usage, long_options, main): New option, --parallel.
(specify_nthreads): New function.
(mergelines): New signature, to emphasize the fact that the HI area
must be part of the destination. All callers changed.
(sequential_sort): New function, renamed from sortlines. Merge in
the functionality of sortlines_temp.

When processing a hard-linked file, du must keep track of the file's
device and inode numbers in order to avoid counting its storage
more than once. When du would process many hard linked files --
as are created by some backup tools -- the amount of memory required
for the supporting data structure could become prohibitively large.
This patch takes advantage of the fact that the amount of information
in the numbers of the typical dev,inode pair is far less than even
32 bits, and hence usually fits in the space of a pointer, be it
32 or 64 bits wide. A typical du traversal examines files on no
more than a handful of distinct devices, so the device number can
be encoded in just a few bits. Similarly, few inode numbers use
all of the high bits in an ino_t. Before, we would represent the
dev,inode pair using a naive struct, and allocate space for each.
Thus, an entry in the hash table consisted of a pointer (to that
struct) and a "next" pointer. With this change, we encode the
dev,inode information and put those bits in place of the pointer,
and thus do away with the need to allocate additional space for
each dev,inode pair.
* src/du.c: Include "di-set.h".
Don't include "hash.h"; it's no longer used.
(INITIAL_DI_SET_SIZE): Define.
(di_set): New global, to replace "htab".
(entry_hash, entry_compare, hash_init): Remove functions.
(hash_ins): Use di-set functions, rather than ones from the hash module.
(main): Likewise.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add the new di-set module.
* NEWS (New features): Mention it.
* src/stat.c (alignof): Remove definition.
Instead, include "alignof.h", and sort the #include directives.
And get its definition from the gnulib module by that name:
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add alignof.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add the following:
netinet_in, sys_ioctl, sys_wait, so that we can eliminate
the #if HAVE_<header>_H tests guarding their header inclusions.
Now that even MinGW provides ftruncate, we know that all
reasonable portability targets provide this function.
Remove the workaround code. We nearly removed the gnulib
module three years ago:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/9203
and it is now officially "obsolete".
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove ftruncate.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Remove use of HAVE_FTRUNCATE and its
no-longer-used workaround code.
* src/truncate.c: Remove a comment about handling missing ftruncate.
* configure.ac: Require autoconf-2.62 and automake-1.11.1 or newer.
* bootstrap.conf (buildreq): Require automake-1.11.1 or newer,
to ensure people use a version with the fix for CVE-2009-4029.
Note that the coreutils-8.2 tarball included a fixed Makefile.in.
Require autoconf-2.62, per automake.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove the strverscmp module
which is not used since commit e505736f, on 03-10-2008,
"ls and sort: use filevercmp instead of strverscmp"
If stdin or stdout is closed, then freopen(,stderr) can violate
the premise that STDERR_FILENO==fileno(stderr), which in turn
breaks mktemp -q.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add freopen-safer.
* src/mktemp.c (includes): Use stdio--.h.
* tests/misc/close-stdout: Enhance test to catch bug.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add do-release-commit-and-tag.
* build-aux/do-release-commit-and-tag: Remove file. Now it's in gnulib.
* gnulib: Update submodule to the latest, to get the just-moved script.
* src/mktemp.c (main): Remove just-created file if stdout had
problems.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add remove.
* tests/misc/close-stdout: Test it.
* NEWS: Document it.
* gl/lib/mbsalign.c (mbsalign): Mark unused parameter.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove obsolete
rename-dest-slash.
* gnulib-tests/Makefile.am (AM_CFLAGS): Reduce set of warnings for
gnulib tests.
* gl/modules/rename-tests.diff (Makefile.am): New file, to add
LIBINTL to LDADD, since we avoid canonicalize-lgpl module.
* gl/lib/regcomp.c.diff (regerror, calc_next)
(build_collating_symbol, parse_bracket_element, build_equiv_class)
(free_tree): Mark unused parameters.
* gl/lib/regex_internal.h.diff (re_string_elem_size_at): New file,
to mark unused parameters.
* gl/lib/printf-args.c.diff (PRINTF_FETCHARGS): New file, to avoid
type mismatch.
* gl/lib/vasnprintf.c (VASNPRINTF): New file, to avoid shadowing
local variable name.
* .gitignore: Ignore temporary build artifacts.
* src/env.c (main): Use unsetenv rather than putenv to remove
items from environ, and check for failure.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add unsetenv.
* tests/misc/env: Test this.
* NEWS: Document it.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gnu-web-doc-update.
Remove gendocs, since gnu-web-doc-update depends on it.
* gnu-web-doc-update: Remove file, now that we get it from gnulib.
