* tests/mv/mv-special-2.sh: Add test to ensure we preserve
sparse files, character devices, symlinks, when moving across
file system boundaries.
Addresses https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/issues/136
* tests/rm/fail-eperm.xpl: Remove this usually skipped non-root test.
* tests/rm/fail-2eperm.sh: Add the test to this root test instead.
* tests/local.mk: Remove the reference to *.xpl.
* tests/cp/cp-mv-enotsup-xattr.sh: The nouser_xattr option
is not supported by ext2 since about 2022. Instead use
ramfs to ensure xattrs are not supported. We also remove
part of the test that relied on partial xattr support.
Fixes https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/issues/135
Recently we've not built our kill command by default,
so reduce test dependence on that.
* tests/sort/sort-compress-proc.sh: `kill -l [exit_status]` is well
supported, and is a POSIX requirement.
* tests/timeout/timeout.sh: There were actually no kill invocations
in this test at all.
* src/timeout.c (main): Use PR_SET_PDEATHSIG to ensure the
child is terminated even if the parent terminates abnormally.
* tests/timeout/timeout-group.sh: Add a case to ensure sending
SIGKILL results in the termination of the monitored command.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
The --apparent-size option to 'du' was added in
coreutils-4.5.8 (2003). FreeBSD 8.0 (2009) added the same functionality
under the short option -A. This long option previously had no short
option, so this patch adds -A to be compatible with FreeBSD.
* NEWS: Mention the new short option.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Document the short option.
* src/du.c (usage): Likewise.
(APPARENT_SIZE_OPTION): Remove definition.
(EXCLUDE_OPTION): Define to CHAR_MAX + 1.
(long_options): Use the -A short option for --apparent-size.
(main): Likewise.
* tests/du/apparent.sh: Test that '-b', '-A -B 1', and
'--apparent-size --block-size 1' function the same.
This behavior was depended on in our trap_sigpipe_or_skip_ helper,
and now that we're handling all terminating signals, we should
consistently honor their ignored signal dispositions.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior, especially in regard
to shell background jobs.
* src/timeout.c (sig_needs_handling): A new helper that return TRUE,
for --signal, SIG_ALRM, or non ignored signals.
(cleanup_install): Filter handled signals with the helper.
(block_cleanup_and_chld): Likewise.
* tests/timeout/timeout-group.sh: Adjust to use the now required
`env --default-signal=...` wrapper to reset (auto) ignored signals.
Also change the termination signal from SIGINT to SIGUSR1
to generalize the test signals not specially handled by the shell,
and newly handled by timeout(1).
* tests/timeout/timeout.sh: Add a test case for SIGPIPE
to ensure the ignored signal disposition is honored.
* src/timeout.c (term_sig): A new global list of all signals
whose default disposition is to terminate the process.
(install_cleanup): Iterate over the TERM_SIG list, rather than
installing the handler for a specific subset.
(block_cleanup_and_chld): Likewise.
* tests/timeout/timeout.sh: Add a test case for SIGPIPE.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* init.cfg (require_inotify_supported_): A new function that
indicates inotify support for a file in the current directory,
using tail --debug, rather than awkward strace checks etc.
* tests/tail/inotify-dir-recreate.sh: Call require_inotify_supported_.
tests/tail/inotify-only-regular.sh: Likewise.
tests/tail/inotify-race.sh: Likewise.
tests/tail/inotify-race2.sh: Likewise.
* doc/coreutils.texi (tail invocation): Describe --debug.
* src/tail.c (tail_forever, tail_forever_inotify): Output
which --follow implementation is being used.
* tests/tail/debug.sh: Add a new test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* tests/env/env.sh: Always pass --coreutils-prog=true so that the
program to run can be determined with --enable-single-binary=symlinks.
Also actually verify the expected verbose output.
Reported by the Alpine Linux project.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* src/nice.c (MIN_ADJUSTMENT): Set to 0 on the Hurd with glibc ≤ 2.42.
(MAX_ADJUSTMENT): Set to (2 * NZERO - 2) on the Hurd with glibc ≤ 2.42.
(main): Clamp the niceness to be greater or equal to MIN_ADJUSTMENT and
less than or equal to MAX_ADJUSTMENT.
* tests/nice/nice.sh: Add some tests for the Hurd's ranges.
* gnulib: Update to the latest gnulib to pull in the fix
(v1.0-2406-g89f63027de) to allocate the $PATH processing memory
before the vfork call, which is required on ppc and sparc.
* tests/install/basic-1.sh: Ensure posix_spawnp() suports a large $PATH,
which needs careful handling with vfork() as detailed in gnulib.
It was seen that gnulib's read_file_system_list may use fopen instead
of open. Adjust the df(1) tests to replace both library functions.
* tests/df/no-mtab-status.sh: Change the shared library code invoked
via LD_PRELOAD to override both fopen and open. While at it, perform
varargs processing only when path is not "/proc/self/mountinfo".
* tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Likewise.
Two df(1) tests were skipped (since commit ee367bd38d), because
the build of the shared library in those tests failed.
+ gcc -Wall -shared --std=gnu99 -fPIC -O2 k.c -o k.so -ldl
k.c: In function 'open':
k.c:37:7: error: implicit declaration of function 'streq'; did you \
mean 'strsep'? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
37 | if (streq (path, "/proc/self/mountinfo"))
| ^~~~~
| strsep
Gnulib streq is not available in the tests.
* tests/df/no-mtab-status.sh: Replace "streq" by "0==strcmp" in the
shared library source.
* tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Likewise.
This improvement is due to changes to Gnulib's fprintftime module.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* src/getlimits.c (OFF64_T_MAX, OFF64_T_MIN): New macros.
(main): Print them.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Call getlimits_. Add a date invocation.
* src/copy-file-data.c (infer_scantype): Fall back to a plain copy
if SEEK_HOLE indicates non-sparse, as zero copy avoids copy offload.
This was seen with transparently compressed files on OpenZFS.
* tests/cp/sparse-perf.sh: Add a test case even though it might
only trigger on compressed file systems that don't support reflink.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
Addresses https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/issues/122
* src/sort.c (main): Ignore SIGPIPE so we've more control over
how we handle for stdout and compression programs.
(sort_die): Handle EPIPE from stdout and mimic a standard SIGPIPE,
otherwise reverting to a standard exit(SORT_FAILURE);
* tests/sort/sort-compress-proc.sh: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* tests/date/resolution.sh: Fix comparison on systems with less than
nano second reslution, where we use sed to discard the redundant
trailing zeros output by date --resolution.
Reported by Bruno Haible on macOS.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement. Mention that 'sort' will continue
without compressing temporary files if the program specified by
--compress-program cannot be executed.
* doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Document the behavior when the
program specified by --compress-program cannot be executed.
* src/sort.c: Include spawn.h.
(MAX_FORK_TRIES_COMPRESS, MAX_FORK_TRIES_DECOMPRESS): Remove definition.
(MAX_TRIES_COMPRESS, MAX_TRIES_DECOMPRESS): New definitions based on
MAX_FORK_TRIES_COMPRESS and MAX_FORK_TRIES_DECOMPRESS.
(async_safe_die): Remove function.
(posix_spawn_file_actions_move_fd): New function.
(pipe_fork): Remove function.
(pipe_child): New function based on pipe_fork. Return an error number
instead of a pid. Use posix_spawnp instead of calling fork and expecting
the caller to exec.
(maybe_create_temp): Call pipe_child instead of pipe_fork. Print a
warning to standard error if --compress-program cannot be executed and
the error is different than the previous call. Remove code for the child
process.
(open_temp): Remove code for the child process. Improve error message.
* tests/sort/sort-compress.sh: Add a test case for when the program
specified by --compress-program does not exist.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* src/fmt.c (put_line): Exit if any error writing line.
(flush_paragraph): Exit if any error writing buffer.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Enable the (flush_paragraph) test case,
and add another to check the put_line() case.
* src/numfmt.c (process line): Inspect the stdio error state when
outputting each line so that we don't have to check each output function
but do eventually exit upon write error, while also remaining buffered.
(main): Also check when outputting a header for the edge case
of very long headers.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Enable the numfmt test case.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement, and reorganize all numfmt improvements.
* tests/numfmt/mb-non-utf8.sh: Test GB18030 delimiter search.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test, and move
the existing numfmt.pl test from tests/misc to tests/numfmt.
* bootstrap.conf: Depend on mbsstr() to robustly search for a
multi-byte delimiter character (string) within a multi-byte string.
* src/numfmt.c (main): Accept a valid multi-byte delimiter character.
(next_field): Adjust delimiter search from single byte
to multi-byte aware. Use mbsstr to find the first match.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Add test case.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
