* doc/coreutils.texi (shred invocation): Mention some reasons why clearing slack space might be useful. * src/shred.c (do_wipefd): Add initial writes for each pass for small regular files in case the storage for those is in the inode, and thus a larger write up to a block size would bypass that. Move the direct I/O control to... (dopass): ... here so we can avoid enabling it for these small initial writes. It's better to retry direct I/O for each pass anyway to handle the case where direct I/O is disabled for only the last portion of a file when the size is not a multiple of the block size. Note we don't avoid the sync for the initial write as it will be small but more importantly could be on a different part of the disk and so worth doing independently to ensure the write is not discarded. * tests/misc/shred-exact.sh: Check some more direct I/O cases. * NEWS: Mention the improvements. The inode storage issue was mentioned by Paul Eggert.
