* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
* src/install.c (need_copy): s/lstat/stat/ for the source.
* tests/install/install-C.sh: Add test cases
(and improve existing test case which wan't valid
due to the existing non standard modes on test files).
Addresses https://bugs.gnu.org/72707
* boostrap.conf (gnulib.modules): Add xvasprintf, which
had been omitted by mistake.
* src/copy.c, src/dd.c, src/test.c: Don't include verror.h,
as Gnulib removed it.
Support overriding previous sorting options
with an explicit --sort=name option.
* doc/coreutils.texi (ls invocation): Document the new option.
* src/ls.c (usage): Likewise.
(sort_args): Add the "name" entry, and sort to be consistent
with the ordering presented in --help.
* tests/ls/ls-time.sh: Add test cases.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
Suggested by: Tzvetelin Katchov
* src/printf.c: Remove redundant comment.
State explicitly that the leading 0 is the exception
from normal escape processing. Remove a full stop for consistency.
* doc/coreutils.texi (printf invocation): Add a reference
to C99 string escapes since these are not mentioned
in the referenced glibc printf info. Also explicitly state
the leading 0 exception. Also use NNN rather than OOO
to be consistent with the --help documentation.
Also remove and extraneous '\' and fix grammar in the info
regarding the ninth bit.

Although these patches don’t affect user-visible behavior,
they do clean up the source code a bit, and the
machine code should be a tiny bit more efficient.
* src/cat.c (simple_cat, cat):
* src/csplit.c (read_input):
* src/head.c (copy_fd, elide_tail_bytes_pipe)
(elide_tail_lines_pipe, elide_tail_lines_seekable, head_bytes)
(head_lines):
* src/install.c (have_same_content):
* src/tac-pipe.c (buf_init_from_stdin):
* src/tac.c (tac_seekable, copy_to_temp):
* src/tail.c (dump_remainder, file_lines, pipe_lines)
(pipe_bytes, start_bytes, start_lines, tail_forever_inotify):
* src/tr.c (plain_read):
Adjust to recent Gnulib changes by using new types
for safe_read, safe_write, full_read, full_write.
Not clear that the overflows could be exploited,
but they made the code confusing.
* src/head.c (elide_tail_bytes_pipe): Don’t convert uintmax_t
to size_t first thing; wait until it’s known the value will fit,
and then use idx_t rather than size_t to prefer signed types.
Prefer idx_t in nearby code, too.
Rename locals n_elide_0 to n_elide (for consistency elsewhere)
and n_elide to in_elide.
Remove bogus (SIZE_MAX < n_elide + READ_BUFSIZE) test;
in the typical case where n_elide’s type was the same as
that of SIZE_MAX, the test never succeeded, and in the
less-common case where n_elide was wider than size_t,
the addition could silently overflow, causing the test
to fail when it should succeed. The test is not needed anyway now.
Add static asserts to document code assumptions.
Redo the ! (n_elide <= HEAD_TAIL_PIPE_BYTECOUNT_THRESHOLD) case
so that it works with enormous values of n_elide even on
32-bit platforms; for example, n_bufs is now uintmax_t not size_t.
Simplify by using xpalloc instead of by-hand code.
Remove bogus ‘if (rem)’ test, as rem is always nonzero.
* src/tail.c (tail_lines): If skipping all input, use lseek if
possible.
(parse_options): Allow counts to exceed 2**64.
(main): Don’t subtract 1 from UINTMAX_MAX, since it stands
for infinity in this context.
(main): Also don’t read anything when given infinite elisions.
* tests/tail/tail.pl: Adjust to match new behavior. Rename err-5
test to big-c and expect the invocation to succeed, since ‘tail
-c99999999999999999999’ now succeeds instead of (unnecessarily)
failing.
* src/head.c (head): Optimize for -n-HUGE, where HUGE exceeds
2**64 - 2.
(string_to_integer): Return UINTMAX_MAX for too-large numbers,
instead of failing.
(main): Omit no-lnger-necessary test for byte count overflow.
Also, prepare for allowing some arguments to overflow
without that being an error.
* gl/lib/xdectoint.c: Do not include stddef.h,
since we no longer use ‘unreachable’.
(xnumtoimax, xnumtoumax, __xnumtoint):
New arg FLAGS. All callers changed.
Stop using __xdectoint_signed. All definers removed.
* gl/lib/xdectoint.h (XTOINT_MIN_QUIET, XTOINT_MAX_QUIET)
(XTOINT_MIN_RANGE, XTOINT_MAX_RANGE): New flag constants.
* src/fmt.c (main):
* src/fold.c (main):
* src/nl.c (main):
* src/pr.c (getoptnum):
* src/split.c (main):
Use XTOINT_MIN_RANGE and XTOINT_MAX_RANGE if appropriate.
* src/pr.c (getoptnum): Return int rather than returning void
and storing through int *.
* src/stty.c (apply_settings):
Use ckd_add to check for overflow instead of doing it by hand.
(integer_arg): Accept and return uintmax_t, not unsigned long.
The test writes to the disk and means the space used changes. If this
crosses a number boundary, the heading spacing can change:
-Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
+Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
* tests/df/df-P.sh: Squash spaces with tr to avoid alignment variations.
* gl/lib/randperm.c: Include <stdckdint.h>.
(randperm_bound): Return SIZE_MAX if the multiplication overflows.
Do not overflow when converting bit count to byte count.
Problem reported by Daniel Carpenter <https://bugs.gnu.org/72445>.
* gl/lib/randread.c (randread_new): Fill the ISAAC buffer
instead of storing at most BYTES_BOUND bytes into it.
We already support reproducible builds since commit v8.24-99-gc1b3d6587,
and this adjusts that change to also support reproducible
tarball contents with subsequent runs of `make dist`.
* Makefile.am: Don't create a varying .timestamp file, instead ...
* man/local.mk: Rely on the timestamp of the .tarball-version file.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/72232
On these file systems the atime is always zero.
Problem found with ZFS on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
* tests/stat/stat-birthtime.sh (check_timestamps_updated):
* tests/stat/stat-nanoseconds.sh:
Work even if atimes are always zero.
* tests/stat/stat-nanoseconds.sh:
Fix typo: print_ver_ called before init.sh sourced.
* src/ls.c: Track if --time=mtime is explicitly specified,
so that we can apply the GNU extension of sorting by the
specified time, when not displaying (-l not specified),
and not explicitly sorting (-t not specified).
* tests/ls/ls-time.sh: Add / Update test cases.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/71803
* doc/coreutils.texi (ls invocation): Document the "c-maybe"
--quoting-style, which was added as an option in 2008.
Reported at https://bugs.debian.org/1074334
The ERE used lacks the grouping of the extensions and therefore would
also match files where the first two patterns are not at the end of
the line:
grep -E '\.sh|\.pl|\.xpl$'
* cfg.mk (sc_tests_list_consistency): Add grouping (...) around the
sub-patterns. While at it, also remove the redundant escaping, i.e.,
\$$ -> $$ to be consistent with the rest of this file.
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Rename "FUSEBLK" to "FUSE" to sync with
kernel adjustments. Add "bcachefs", and "pidfs". Both are local,
with the latter being similar to "proc" which is also local.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior, and the improvement.
Problem reported by Dan Jaobson (Bug#71171).
* doc/coreutils.texi: Clarify that directory entries are sorted,
not command-line arguments.
* src/ls.c (usage): Be less chatty about -U and
about --group-directories-first.
