* src/split.c (set_suffix_length): Use a more standard
zero based logN calculation for the number of units.
* tests/split/suffix-auto-length.sh: Add a test case.
* THANKS.in: Mention the reporter.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/35291
Problem reported by Hans Henrik Bergan (Bug#36007).
* NEWS: Mention this.
* src/dd.c (iclose, ifdatasync, ifstat, ifsync):
New functions, which are more careful about SIGINT.
(cleanup): Use iclose instead of close.
(finish_up): Process signals first.
(skip, dd_copy, main): Use ifstat instead of fstat.
(dd_copy): Use ifdatasync and ifsync instead of fdatasync and fsync.
Problem reported by Jakub Kulik (Bug#35713).
* NEWS: Mention this.
* configure.ac (DEV_FD_MIGHT_BE_CHR): New macro.
* src/copy.c (DEV_FD_MIGHT_BE_CHR): Default to false.
(follow_fstatat): New function.
(copy_internal): Use it.
* src/copy.h (XSTAT): Remove; no longer used.
The wording of the dd --help text suggests that output will be skipped
for sparse *input* blocks (i.e. that NUL-checking is done on input
blocks) while the code actually checks/skips all-NUL *output* blocks.[1]
* src/dd.c (usage): Update the --help text to clarify the above.
* tests/dd/sparse.sh: Ensure sparseness is controlled with obs.

Its support for the -include option is flaky. Problem reported by
Michael Osipov (Bug#35650). Plus, we could run into other
compilers that don’t support any option like -include. Change the
code so that -include is not needed. Although this causes us to
depart from the upstream version, we’re already doing that for
other reasons.
* configure.ac (USE_XLC_INCLUDE): Remove, as there’s no
guarantee a compiler will support something like -include.
* src/blake2/b2sum.c [HAVE_CONFIG_H]: Include <config.h>.
* src/local.mk (src_b2sum_CPPFLAGS): Add -DHAVE_CONFIG_H.
Do not use -include or a substitute.
Problem reported by Michael Osipov (Bug#35650).
* configure.ac: Use AC_LANG_WERROR to pay attention to compiler
and linker warnings when testing whether stdbuf will work.
* src/blake2/blake2.h (BLAKE2_PACKED):
Don’t assume __attribute__ ((packed)) works on non-Microsoft
compilers. Instead, assume it works only if we have good
reason to assume so, and fall back on Microsoft (or not packing)
otherwise. In practice, not packing is good enough and the
BLAKE2_PACKED macro is mostly just for documentation.
* src/basenc.c: Various minor style cleanups.
(struct base_decode_context): Do not use anonymous unions, as
they’re not in C99. Use a named union instead. All uses changed.
* src/system.h (X2NREALLOC, X2REALLOC, DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE):
Use verify_expr instead of verify_true, which has been removed.
(DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE): Remove unnecessary size check.
Problem reported by John Marino (Bug#34894).
* src/ln.c (main): Port ln -s to Solaris symlink function,
where symlink ("x", ".") fails with errno == EINVAL.
Some files are physically copied from gnulib, and should get sync'ed
after each update to latest gnulib. This was forgotten during recent
updates.
* COPYING: Merge from gnulib/doc/COPYINGv3.
* tests/init.sh: Merge from gnulib/tests/init.sh.
* tests/misc/test-N.sh: The subsecond values for atime and mtime
were potentially seen to differ on newlyl created files.
So we include the subsecond portion when comparing stat values.
* tests/misc/wc-nbsp.sh: Add gating checks for all characters,
as there are disparate classifications on various systems:
SunOS 5.10 treats \u202F, \u2060 as !iswprint()
SunOS 5.10 treats \u00A0, \u2007 as iswspace()
AIX 7.2, Darwin 17.4.0, NetBSD 7.1 treat \u2060 as !iswprint()
* tests/id/zero.sh: sed on OSX will output a \n even
if the input doesn't have a \n on the last "line".
So ensure we always have a trailing '\n' to avoid the disparity.
Testing by Assaf Gordon on OSX showed the atime wasn't
being updated when explicitly set back in time.
Also Debian 8.11 / mips64 was seen to not update the
mtime when truncating an empty file.
* tests/misc/test-N.sh: Isolate from different timestamping
behaviors of various (file) systems, by correlating
the timestamps with stat(1) before using `test -N`.
Very old makeinfo-4.13 fails with:
./doc/coreutils.texi:2286: Unknown command `hashchar'.
./doc/coreutils.texi:2286: Misplaced {.
./doc/coreutils.texi:2286: Misplaced }.
Reported Bernhard Voelker in
https://lists.gnu.org/r/coreutils/2019-03/msg00016.html .
* doc/coreutils.texi (basenc invocation): Replace @hashchar{} with
actual hash character. The special syntax is only required
when referring to #line directives.
* tests/misc/wc-nbsp.sh: FreeBSD and OS X don't
treat non breaking space as printable characters.
So use wc -L to determine printability before
testing non breaking space functionality.
* src/env.c (initialize_signals): A new function to initialize
the signals array on the heap, to avoid a build failure on
opensolaris, where SIGNUM_BOUND is not a constant.
* man/local.mk: commit f114495e added an extra check to ensure
a binary was working before using it to generate the man page.
However this was not working for the false(1) command,
and also one can generally specify that one should not
be using generated commands on the current system by passing
'cross_compiling=yes' to the configure invocation.
* src/env.c (main): Output blocked or ignored signals
before a command is executed.
* doc/coreutils.texi (env invocation): Add the option.
* tests/misc/env-signal-handler.sh: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
New options to set signal handlers for the command being executed.
--block-signal suggested by Paul Eggert in http://bugs.gnu.org/34488#71
--default-signal is useful to overcome the POSIX limitation that shell
must not override inherited signal state, e.g. the second 'trap' here is
a no-op:
trap '' PIPE && sh -c 'trap - PIPE ; seq inf | head -n1'
Instead use:
trap '' PIPE && sh -c 'env --default-signal=PIPE seq inf | head -n1'
Similarly, the following will prevent CTRL-C from terminating the
program:
env --ignore-signal=INT seq inf > /dev/null
See https://bugs.gnu.org/34488#8

* src/local.mk (src_env_SOURCES): Add operand2sig.c.

more conservative in our replacement when not connected to a tty.
* tests/df/problematic-chars.sh: Add a test case.
* doc/coreutils.texi (node seq invocation): Clarify to use the tool
'yes'; otherwise the reader may interpret the sentence as if one
could pass 'yes' as the INCREMENT value.
* src/wc.c (iswnbspace): A new function to match
characters in this class.
(isnbspace): Likewise for single byte charsets.
(main): Initialize posixly_correct from the environment,
to allow disabling honoring NBSP in non C locales.
(wc): Call is[w]nbspace() along with is[w]space.
* bootstrap.conf: Ensure btowc is available.
* tests/misc/wc-nbsp.sh: A new test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
