The following test fails on aarch64 on openSUSE's OpenBuildService
due to glibc's execvp reversing the pointers of 'environ', i.e.,
the output of "env|tac" equals "env env" on that platform.
* tests/misc/printenv.sh: Use 'env env' to work around the behavior
on that platform.
While at it, fix the grep pattern which suppressed all environment
variables starting with an underscore "_" instead of "$_" (and
"$LD_PRELOAD") only.
* src/md5sum.c (usage): Detail the reasons for the default
double space between checksum and file name.
* doc/coreutils.texi (md5sum invocation): Likewise.
Explicitly mention the 3 formats that --check supports.
Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/19725
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): Check for syncfs().
* man/sync.x: Add references to syncfs, fsync and fdatasync.
* doc/coreutils.texi (sync invocation): Document the new feature.
* src/sync.c: Include "quote.h".
(AUTHORS): Include myself.
(MODE_FILE, MODE_DATA, MODE_FILE_SYSTEM, MODE_SYNC): New enum values.
(long_options): Define.
(sync_arg): New function.
(usage): Describe that arguments are now accepted.
(main): Add arguments parsing and add support for fsync(2),
fdatasync(2) and syncfs(2).
* tests/misc/sync.sh: New (and only) test for sync.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* AUTHORS: Add myself to sync's authors.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* scripts/autotools-install: Increase automake's version number
to 1.15 and add Stefano Lattarini's new GPG key ID.
Increase gettext's version to 0.19.4 and add Daiki Ueno's GPG key ID.
Also move VERSION definition "up" so that it is once again
automatically updated via the emacs hook snippet at the end
of the file.
* src/stty.c (usage): Don't reference unsupported options,
in the combined options descriptions.
* doc/coreutils.texi (stty invocation): Adjust for the
new order of the 'sane' and 'raw' combined options.
Also add -iutf8 to the 'sane' list.
* src/stty.c (usage): On systems that support this setting (BSD),
display 'status' in the list of adjustable special characters.
* doc/coreutils.texi (stty invocation): Mention the option, and that
it's not currently supported on Linux.
The equivalent of this is 'flush', but that was never documented
as an option (though was output with stty -a). Therefore use
the more descriptive name, also generally used on BSD systems.
Note even though this setting seems ineffective on Linux, supporting
the setting is useful to allow terminal programs to receive
the default ^O character code.
* doc/coreutils.texi (stty invocation): Document the 'discard' option.
* src/stty.c (struct control_info): Add 'discard'; same as 'flush'.
(display_all): Show 'discard' rather than 'flush' char.
(display_changed): Likewise.
(usage): Document the 'discard' option.
Add support for the "extproc" option which is well described at:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-readline/2011-01/msg00004.html
* src/stty.c (usage): Describe the extproc option if either the
Linux EXTPROC local option is defined, or the equivalent
BSD TIOCEXT ioctl is defined.
(main): Make the separate ioctl call for extproc on BSD.
* doc/coreutils.texi (stty invocation): Describe the option,
and reference the related RFC 1116.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* tests/split/record-sep.sh: Use the recently added returns_ function
to simplify the shell syntax in this test. Also remove the redirection
of stdout/stderr to /dev/null as this eases analyzing errors.
* src/split.c (eolchar): A new variable to hold
the separator character (unibyte for now).
This is reference throughout rather than hardcoding '\n'.
(usage): Describe the new --separator option, and
mention records along with lines so there is no ambiguity
that all options treat lines and records equivalently.
(main): Have -t update eolchar, or default to '\n'.
* tests/split/record-sep.sh: New test case.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* doc/coreutils.texi (split invocation): Document the new option.
Adjust --lines, --line-bytes, --number=[lr]/... to mention
they pertain to records if --separator is specified.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
Following on from http://bugs.gnu.org/17546
make it more obvious that du may elide specified operands
to avoid double counting in the set.
* src/du.c (usage): Specify that du operates on the set of
operands, rather than each independently.
* doc/coreutils.texi (du invocation): Likewise. Also state
that the number of entries printed may change due to the
order specified. Currently, deeper items specified earlier
will result in them being displayed, but don't mention that
implementation detail in the documentation.
* THANKS.in: Add reporter.

When some program produces unexpected output, that use of
compare-vs-/dev/null will ensure that the surprising output is
printed in the test's output. With "test -s err" only, one
would have to instrument and rerun in order to see the offending
output.
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_and_fail_1): Exempt 'compare' from this check.
* tests/dd/misc.sh: Change "tests -s ... || fail=1" to
"compare /dev/null ... && fail=1".
* tests/misc/nice.sh: Likewise.
* tests/rm/read-only.sh: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/inotify-race.sh: Likewise.

Many tests use `program ... && fail=1` to ensure expected
error situations are indicated. However that would mask
an unexpected exit (like a crash). Therefore explicitly
check the expected exit code.
Note where error messages are also verified, the extra
protection is not added.
* tests/init.sh (returns_): A new helper function to
check the return code of a command, and used
throughout the tests.
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_and_fail_1): Add a syntax check
to avoid new instances of this issue.
* tests/df/no-mtab-status.sh: Provide libmount placeholders,
to avoid skipping the test when libmount is in use.
* tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Likewise.
* tests/df/skip-rootfs.sh: Comment that the test is moot
when libmount (/proc/self/mountinfo) is being used.
Problem reported by Daiki Ueno in: http://bugs.gnu.org/19520
* src/shuf.c (main): Avoid core dump if !input_range.
* tests/misc/shuf.sh: Test for this bug.
* bootstrap: Update copyright year manually (missing in previous
gnulib update).
* tests/init.sh: Likewise.
The entries in the exemption list are processed by
"grep -vEf ./.x-update-copyright", and therefore evaluated as an
extended regular expression (ERE). Thus, the "bootstrap" entry
also matched for bootstrap.conf which we want to be updated.
* .x-update-copyright: Change all entries to EREs, i.e. including
the caret ^ and dollar sign $ meta-characters matching the beginning
and the end of a line.
* bootstrap.conf: Update copyright year by "make update-copyright".
Finally, the only one showing up with the following command should
be the COPYING file:
$ git grep 'Copyright .* Free Software' | grep -v '2015 Free Software'
* src/split.c (usage): Indent the info on CHUNKS so that
help2man can match it and align appropriately in its own section.
Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/19228
Pick up an errno adjustment in xstrtol() that fixes
a spurious test failure on Darwin 14.0.0.
Also update copyright year to 2015 avoiding a syntax-check failure.
Run "make update-copyright" and then...
* tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year.
* tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle-v2.sh: Fix case in copyright message,
so that year is updated automatically in future.
Commit v8.23-63-g111a2b9 removed the expensive tag on this test,
as it runs quickly on systems with inotify. However without that
it would take about 8 minutes for the test to complete all iterations.
* tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate.sh: Tag as expensive without inotify.
Also adjust the polling parameters used on systems without inotify
so that the test completes within about 15 seconds.
Included in this are gnulib changes 3ea43e02 2768ceb7
which make the device IDs from /proc/self/mountinfo
available to df. This can be leveraged by a subsequent
change to df to present a more accurate list of file systems.
* bootstrap: Merge from gnulib.
* src/ls.c (dev_ino_pop): s/obstack_blank/obstack_blank_fast/
as this API/ABI has changed, giving memory exhausted errors
if negative (large positive) numbers are passed to obstack_blank().
* tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Adjust as the new gnulib code
requires a non NULL mnt_opts even when mnt_type is not "none".
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/18129583 identified (on OS X)
an incorrect test assumption in the previous commit.
* gl/lib/xdectoint.c (__xnumtoint): Suppress the EINVAL
error message as it's redundant in this context.

strerror messages.
* tests/fmt/base.pl: Likewise.
* tests/pr/pr-tests.pl: Likewise.

Following on from commit v8.23-82-gaddae94, consistently diagnose
numbers that are too large, so as to distinguish from other errors,

glibc <= 2.5 would crash when passed invalid long double values,
therefore internal gnulib routines were used, essentially only by od,
to output such invalid values. Later glibc versions don't crash,
as per https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4586
and subsequently od was adjusted to use the system printf routines
through the use of the ftoastr module with commit v8.7-22-ga71c22f.
Consequently our testing of this feature was moot, and use of
the gnulib printf replacement for printf(1), od(1) and error(3) etc.
was redundant.
* configure.ac (gl_printf_safe): Unset so that we don't check that
"nan" is output for these long double values.
* tests/misc/od-float.sh: Adjust all existing checks to fail if od
exits with failure status (like crashing for example). Add a new case
for one of the problematic invalid long double values for x86_64.
We only check that od exits successfully at present, which may change
if https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17661 is resolved.
* gl/lib/rand-isaac.c (isaac_refill): readisaac() purposefully passes
unaligned pointers to avoid memory copies. This is only done on
platforms where this is defined, so avoid the associated
runtime warning generated with -fsanitize=undefined, which is:
lib/rand-isaac.c:125:182: runtime error: store to misaligned address
0x63100003d7fd for type 'isaac_word', which requires 8 byte alignment

src/pr.c: In function 'print_files.part.5':
src/pr.c:1781:6: error: assuming signed overflow does not occur
when simplifying conditional to constant [-Werror=strict-overflow]
if (cols_ready_to_print () == 0)
This happens because cols_ready_to_print() is inlined
thus reducing the comparison to the N variable in print_page().
Now this can't overflow due to the protection when parsing the
specified column, but use an unsigned type to avoid the
apparent signed overflow.
* src/pr.c (cols_ready_to_print): Increment an unsigned type to
avoid the subsequent signed overflow warning.
This patch fixes the handling of sub-bind-mount cycles which are
incorrectly detected as the file system errors. If you bind mount the
directory 'a' to its subdirectory 'a/b/c' and then run 'du a/b' you
will get the circular dependency warning even though nothing is wrong
with the file system. This happens because the first directory that is
traversed twice in this case is not a bind mount but a child of bind
mount. The solution is to traverse all the directories in the cycle
that fts detected and check whether they are not a (bind) mount.
* src/du.c (mount_point_in_fts_cycle): New function that checks whether
any of the directories in the cycle that fts detected is a mount point.
* src/du.c (process_file): Update the function to use the new function
that looks up all the directories in the fts cycle instead of only the
last one.
* tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle-v2.sh: New test case that exhibits the
described behavior.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new root test.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
These checks weren't correctly avoided in commit v8.23-66-g222d7ac
* tests/cp/same-file.sh: Avoid all hardlink to symlink tests
on platforms where that's not supported.

"zu" was output on solaris 8 for example rather than the number,
since coreutils-8.22.
* cfg.mk: Disallow %z, since we don't currently use the gnulib

our usage with error() currently works only through an ancillary

it in the options list according to alphabetic order.
doc/coreutils.texi (df invocation): Mention that --total impacts

commit v8.22-125-g9d736f8 printed placeholder "-" values
for device names that didn't match the preferred device name
for a particular mount point. However that was seen to erroneously
suppress values for aliased host names or exports, common with
remote file systems.
* src/df.c (me_for_dev): Rename from devname_for_dev() so that
we can determine the remoteness as well as the name for the
preferred mount entry.
